Argentina—well, what about it? Norway, the Land of the Midnight Sun. India? All that most persons think about India,-declared Syud Hos sain, journalist and lecturer, who visited the campus this week, is that it is a country of snake-charmers. Switzerland calls up associations of mountains and shepherds and cheese. And so it goes. But so it does not go with the World Fellowship work of the University of Oregon Y. W. C. A. Though the intention is not to make a complete study of the 10 countries chosen for discussion, there is a very real effort being made to encourage individual study and research, to gain added facts on the poli tics, industries, and cultures of these nations. And above all, there is a striving after a more international point of view. The Emerald believes that this international point of view is one of the responsibilities of 1 lie university-educated man and woman. Edheation is intended to put thinking on a sounder and more logical basis. And thinking is botli a danger and a privilege. If persons are to think, to make decisions, there must be a point of view. If this point of view is to be a broad one, an understanding one, it must take into consideration other persons, other nations. Consideration for others means unselfishness. A plea for the warmer human qualities to supplant the grasping and greedy was made by Mr. Hossain in his lecture Tuesday night in Villard hall. It is the University’s good fortune to have so convincing a representative of this doctrine in a man of an other, an oriental, culture. Mr. Hossain's international-ininded ness has been strengthened by sojourns in many countries. It can scarcely be hoped that the entire student body will take a trip around the world in the literal sense of securing passports, packing trunks, and boarding ships. There are, however, other means of becoming “citizens of the world.” Such activities as that of the World Fellowship are admittedly not safe arrivals in foreign ports, but are means to an end. A university education should be considered an intellectual pass port. ‘ ‘F riends—Romans—Countrymen’ ’ r£"'IlF STUDENT who wins in the elimination oratorieal try outs next Tuesday night will represent the University of Oregon in the Peace oratory contest at Pacific college, New berg, April 3, in competition with representatives from Oregon State Normal school, Oregon Agricultural college, Willamette University, Albany college, Pacific University, Pacific college, Eugene Bible University, and Linfield college. The two prize winners in the state contest will be eligible to the national contest. Though only one orator can go from the University to the state contest, the tryouts afford an opportunity for untried men and women to win their spurs. Parry And Thrust J.^ NEWcsport has come to the campus. And probably come to stay. Campus men and women are learning all the in triguing terms in the gallant sport of fencing, which recalls thrilling tales of pirates, polite tales of French nobility, heroic tales of the Colonial days in the United States. Speed and a good eye! Dash ! Just what the chivalrie results of fencing will be is hard to guess. Will men begin to insist on walking on a lady’s right 6ide, as they do on the continent, leaving their sword arms free to defend her, instead of walking protectinglv on the out side ot the sidwalk next to relentless big trucks and murderous fire engines? Or will the ladies themselves take to the gentle art en masse? Can it be thut we will develop a new type of athlete? Campus Bulletin. Notices will be printed in this column for two issues only. Copy must be in this office by 5:30 on the day before it is to be published, and must be limited to 20 words. All Oregon Knights and Pledges will report at the Armory at 6:45 o’clock this evening. UNCLAIMED ARTICLES TO BE AUCTIONED OFF Proceeds of Sale Will Go To Women’s League The lost articles of last year1 which have been lying, unclaimed and collecting dust in the Univer sity depot, since being forsaken by their owners, have been turned over to the Women’s League. This organization will sponsor an auc tion sale of the things Tuesday, March 3, at 10 o’clock, on the li brary steps if the -weather per mits. The collection is to be removed from the depot to the Theta Sigma Phi room on the second floor of the journalism building, and from Wednesday, February 25, to the following Monday, March 2, owners will have a chance to claim their belongings, the only condition be ing that they are properly iden tified. After this time, articles cannot be claimed; either at or after the auction. Some of the things mak ing up the collection are, umbrel las, fountain pens, a bathing suit, overcoat, caps, etc. Students who are planning on purchasing any of these articles are asked to wait un til the auction, instead of buying the things from some other place. Winifred Graham, president of the League, has placed Margaret Vincent in charge of the auction plans. Kandall Jones is to be head auctioneer, with James Leake and Bob Mautz as assistants. FRESHMEN TO (REPORT The following freshmen will report to the Order of the “O” on the Library steps at 10:50 o’clock this morning and par ticipate in a lovely party: Ted Hendry, Edward Brown, Francis DeWelt, Jack Hemp stead, Clyde Montague, Clinton Peets, Humbolt Gregg, Dick Gordon, Kenneth Williams, George Wilshirc, Leonard May field.

SCHEDULED HIKES END j WITH ALL-DAY TRIPi i A strenuous all-day hike on j March 1, closes the organized hik- j ing for the winter term. On this; Sunday the walkers of the campus j will have a chance to demonstrate | their ability, according to Floyd McKalson, chairman, who is mak ing the plans. The trip will not be long, only seven or eight miles, but it will be [ over an old trail which is now over-1 come with tangled underbrush. The j plans are these. A train will be j taken to Coburg, and from there; the party, headed by Dr. Warren I). Smith, of the geology depart ment, will start for the Marcola hills. A stage will be taken back from Marcola.. Further details as to the time and the cost will be announced later. WORK TO BEGIN ON GAMMA PHI HOUSE Ground is to be broken March 1 for construction of the new Gam ma Phi Beta house, according to plans now in progress. It is to be situated on the corner of Mill Race and Hilyard, across from the Bach elordon house, and will have a spe cially made, artistic landing on the race. It is expected that the new house will be ready for occupancy by next September and is planned to accom modate 33 girls. The house is to be constructed of brick and stucco, the first story and a half to be of brick. It is to be quite large, L-shaped, and English Tudor in style. Construction is in charge of T. M.

The Danger Line extends around each tooth at the gum margin. It is just a little V-shaped crevice, but it is vastly important. For in these tiny crevices, food gathers and ferments, forming the acids which cause painful, unsightly Acid Decay. You can safeguard against Acid Decay and relieve conditions favorable to Pyor rhea, if you will use Squibb’s Dental Cream, made with Squibb's Milk of Mag nesia. Ask your dentist, and he will tell you that Milk of Magnesia has been used for years as a safe, scientific means of counteracting the acids which attack the teeth and gums. Hence the great value of Squibb’s Dental Cream. Squibb’s Dental Cream is pleasant to use. It is safe. It is free from harsh, injurious abrasives. It cleans thoroughly and pol ishes beautifully. It removes the danger at The Danger Line. At reliable drug stores. Squibb's Dental Cream Mode with Squibb 's Milk of Maonesia C 1915 PORTLAND CENTER ADDS INSTRUCTOR FROM EAST Dr. W. F. Kennedy Added To Extension Staffs With the adoption of the platoon plan, or work-study-play plan, for the Portland schools to go into ef-! feet next fall a revolution has tak en place in the school system that is expected to effect the whole northwest. To meet this changing condition the University extension division has , brought Dr. William F. Kennedy, superintendent of the platoon system in the Pittsburg public schools and professor of edu cation at the University of Pitts burg, to give two courses in the platoon system at the Portland center of the extension division’s summer school, June 22 to July 31. “Adoption by the Portland sehool board of the report and recommend ations submitted to it by the Unit I At the Theatres I <3>-— HEILIG First time tonight and j Saturday, the Brandon Opera company presenting light and comic opera, with Theo Pen nington in the leading role.

Kent of the exten sion division in commenting on the system. “The opening of the fall term of 1925 will see the plan in operation in 12 Portland schools. “Its further extension will doubt less be rapid, depending somewhat upon the success of the plan, fi nances, suitable buildings, and teachers prepared to eeirry these specialized responsibilities which will devolve upon them under the new plan. Preparation for effic ient teaching and administrative work in platoon schools is now the chief concern of the forward look ing teachers of Portland. It is this demand that the extension division ] is trying to meet by installing the new courses. By bringing Supt. Kennedy to Portland the extension division is bringing one of the ut most authorities on the subject in the United States to Portland.
