Feed It or Kill It! JN BANTA’S Greek Exchange for January of this year is an item from the campus of Oklahoma University. It relates with interest to what it calls a “curious” custom, traditional at that institution. Following is quoted a part of the item: “ ‘Howdy.’ “ ‘Howdy.’ “Perfect strangers they were. No one had ever introduced them to each other; indeed, they had never seen each other before, but that didn’t matter at all, for both were ‘Sooners’ and that friendly, casual greeting is a tradition on the Oklahoma University campus. . . . “It was started when Oklahoma University was an insignificant little college of a few hundred and lives on now, though thousands of students pass each other every day. . . . “Visitors from other universities notice the ‘Howdy’ custom first of all, and their comments are en thusiastic. ‘Why, in my school no one ever greets another unless they arc well acquainted,’ says one. ‘Here every one hails you. This certainly is a friendly school.’ ” It was not so long ago that Oregon had a somewhat similar custom, although the term of address was slightly different. In fact, it is not past the memory of the present seniors tore member when freshmen felt obliged to learn the friendly greet ing of Oregon, and when a smile and a cheery “Hello” when students met was not a startling event. Listen now while walking along “Hello Lane.” Try saying “Hello” to a passing frosh, a sophomore, or an upperclassman for that matter. Such greeting is as apt to be met with a sur prised grunt as an answering hail. A tradition committee has been appointed to decide on the merits of various customs on the Oregon campus. One of its first duties should be consideration of the traditional Oregon “Hello,” so often mentioned with pride by former students as an indication of the democratic spirit of the student body. If the tradition is worth keeping, as the Emerald believes it to be, the committee must make provisions for instilling it with fresh blood and giving it a new start toward a sturdy existence. If it is not worth keeping, as many appear to believe, it should not be allowed to die the slow death of malnutrition, but should be declared anaemic and unfit, and an order issued for its execution. I Last term thero was (among others) one assembly when the hall was parked with an audience whose major occupation was none other than attention to the scheduled program. Such in terest was caused by the listeners’real delight in the concert given by l’hi Mu Alpha, men’s music fraternity. Today, there is every reason to expect another assembly hour no less pleas ing. Mu l’hi Epsilon, women's music fraternity, will hold the center of the stage, and the period will be devoted to its annual program given before the student body. The Emerald, in an attempt to stir interest in several fields in addition to the regular news of the campus, has started a number of weekly feature departments. Students and faculty members are reminded that contributions to any of these columns will be welcomed by the editors. Pull credit will be given the writer. Articles may be left in the contribution box at the University library, or at the editor’s office. The University lost and found department is scratching its head over the ever-growing collection of fountain pens, over-1 coats, umbrellas, scarfs, ]{. 0. T. t‘. caps, rubbers, galoshes, and other evidences of careless ownership under its care at the cam pus depot. Why not hold an auction sale and turn the money over to the student loan fund?

HEALTH SEBVICE EXPLAINED Editor of Emerald: Dear Sir: It seems desirable on account of misinformation to state certain of the politics of the University Health Service which obtain dur ing the present college year, 1924 25. Operations: 1. The Health Service can assume no responsibility for maladies antidating entrance to the Uni versity. 2. When any case becomes acute and of major operative import ance, the student may call into consultation any physician he de sires. 3. Tf the patient chooses to remain in the Infirmary, the Health Ser vice staff assumes the care of the case and the patient is re sponsible for the consultant fee. 4. If the patient wishes the con sulting physician to take charge, he then must be removed from the Infirmary, an act which can cels automatically the obligation of the Health Service. 5. All cases of major surgical im portance may avail themselves of post-operative care in the Infirm ary, subject to the discretion of the department, provided that the Health Service is called into consultation and that some mem ber of the Health Service staff is in attendance at the operation. 6. The Health Service assumes no financial responsibility in any operative work whatsoever. In non-operative cases physicians may send their student patients to the Infirmary under the following conditions: 1. The patient must be referred to the Heath Service staff before entrance to the Infirmary. 2. The outside physician may retain a consultant relationship to the case. <rtt® . >-* ■5*5“** What THE DANGER LINE means to you If you will look in a mirror, you will see a tiny V-shaped crevice around each tooth where it joins the gums. This is The Danger Line. Food particles lodge there and ferment, forming acids which lead to Acid Decay. The gums also suffer from the effect of these acids, becoming irritated and sore—perhaps reced ing from the teeth. Then you have conditions favorable to Pyorrhea. Serious diseases often result from infection due to Acid Decay at The Danger Line. Heart and kidney trouble and rheumatism are among them. Make The Danger Line safe Squibb’s Dental Cream, because it is made with Squibb’s Milk of Magnesia, protects against Acid Decay, relieves conditions favor able to Pyorrhea, cleans and polishes beauti fully and protects for houis after use. For Milk of Magnesia has long been recognized throughout the dental profession as a safe, scientific means of counteracting acids danger ous to the teeth and gums.
