A Trip Around the World
^USTRALIA—oh, yes, kangaroos! 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

it is to be published, and must be

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.

YOU
may be in danger at
THE DANGER LINE
*V
DO YOU realize what may happen at The £
Danger Line, where gums meet teeth?
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.

To Extension Staffs
With the adoption of the platoon

condition the University extension
division has , brought Dr. William

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

ried with it the adoption of a build
ing program for the platoon plan,
or work-study-play plan of teach
ing and administration as a device
ultimately to be adopted in the
schools of the city,” according to
Miss Mary E. 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.
