A Live Subject
"PROFESSOR Warren D. Smith speaks this evening on the
campus on the subject of primitive religion. Already the
lecture series of the United Christian Work, the official reli
gious organization of the University, is well begun. Religion
is a live subject. What a man’s religion is depends both upon
what he does helievc and what he does not believe, and the com
mittee in charge of the series is attempting to give the broader
aspects of the most sincere and earnest thought of man in his
relation to the universe.
How can a man persecute a church or creed which he does
not understand? Too much condemnation and too little coop
eration is the attitude of many persons, sometimes even of
those who worship Christ as the Son of God. Let us remember,
as Bruce Barton points out, that Christ, along with his religious
and philosophical sides, was the most popular dinner guest in
Jerusalem. lie was a friend of Jew and Gentile alike.
Let us ask, too, of certain factions who do much speaking
about hundred per cent Americanism, what the great principles
of our government are. Certainly one has been, and still is,
religious toleration, religious freedom. For freedom is not the
privilege of thumping someone on the head, hut the right to go
one’s way without being thumped.
The lecture series began with the psychology of religion by
Professor Edmund S. Conklin. Other speakers will follow Dr.
Smith, who lectures this evening, among them Dr. Rebec, Pro
fessor Dunn, and Rabbi Jonah B. Wise, well known to the stu
dent body for his addresses here in former years and scholarly
familiarity with Hebrew literature. Father Edwin V. O’Hara
will present the Roman Catholic point of view. He has re
cently begun a series of University sermons at St. Mary’s church
in Eugene. It is the purpose of the committee to obtain as
many authorities on religious subjects as the time and oppor
tunities permit. The United Christian Work is still in the ex
perimental stage of its development. By next year it should
be well established and branching out into an even wider field.
It should receive the full support of a broad-minded student
body.
A notice in the Faculty Bulletin of this week pertains to a
subject which is pertinent now, probably always has been, and
probably always will be. It is headed, “Holding Classes Too
Long.” Members of the faculty are reminded that many of
the students have considerable distance to go between classes.
The notice is printed in the Bulletin because “certain faculty
members have made the complaint that they are much inconven
ienced” by some professors holding classes just previous who
fail to dismiss the students promptly. The complaining faculty
members are not the only ones who are inconvenienced. It is
rather difficult for the polite student to make several hundred
yards, or more, in minus time, you know.
The campus depot received a mystery package postmarked
Seattle. It contained a yellow slicker with a green "0” on the
back. Bet Mr. Fisher is right in his theory than some '1 con
science-stricken soul has repented a hastry appropriation on
an especially wet day." The Homecoming game last fall was
played on an especially wet day, wasn’t it? Spring weather
must have arrived on the Washington campus.
Three dollars is quite a little sum. It is, especially, when it
is paid out and nothing is obtained in return except that “1
oughta kick myself" feeling. From the deserted appearance
of the upstairs lobby of the Administration building yesterday,
a goodly number of University of Oregon students will be pay
ing three dollars after next Saturday for just that "privilege."
Next Saturday is the final date for paying fees.
A writer in the Communication Column mentions the un
necessary noise at the Thursday assemblies. Yes, they would
be more enjoyable if offendiing members of the audience would
remember that the word "audience" is not derived from a
word advocating competition with the speaker. The latin gram
mar shows, “audire—to hear.”
There are a number of organizations on the campus which
do little except consume time. Are you a member of one? Are
y,ou amply repaid for the time and energy spent on it?
Looks like a pretty good basketball team this year doesn’t it?

(By-“Gosh”)
Diamond ring advertisements
have appeared in the Emerald:
“pay only five per cent down.” The
frogs are croaking. Layouts of new
clothes are being brought out. All
signs point to an early spring.
Our bright roommate tells us this
one, which we include for the bene
fit of our younger readers.
There once was a monk from Si
beria
His life made him weary and
wearia
With a hell of a yell
He burst from his cell
And eloped with the mother su
peria.
Our weekly truism: When any
number of nothings are added, sub
tracted, or divided by any other
number of nothings, the inevitable
result, according to the latest sci
entific theory, remains a constantly
invariable number of nothings.
MYSTIC:
A most unusual fellow, mysterious
as sin,
Who uses involved language, and
explains
What he doesn’t understand, to
brains
Incapable of comprehending him.
Every once in a while we are
reminded of Nathan’s description
of poetry as “uncouth, unshaven,
boisterous prose afflicted with a
crying drunk.”

what you order because the Peter Pan
