Spring Ploughing
PUBLICATION of the scholarship ratings of the living
organizations on the campus, as compiled in the office
of the registrar, always has a certain interest. While it is
more or less admitted that grades are not everything, and
do not indicate everything, still they are one standard to
check by, like college diplomas, commissions in the army, or
silk hats. And there are always standards to be maintained,
of one sort or another, in this imperfect world.
The Emerald has always believed in, and, as far as pos
sible, encouraged, an independent type of scholarship. It
believes in the student who is not spoon-fed, who does not
have to be pampered and prodded. Scholastic initiative at
the University of Oregon has always reaped, many times
over, its own reward. It is the reward of a finer sense of
values, of a keener appreciation of living. Sometimes there
is the additional recognition of a scholarship award there
has been, the stiident body is to be reminded, more than one
Rhodes Scholar from Oregon.
Reaping the scholastic harvest means putting something
into the soil in due time. Where nothing is planted nothing
grows. And there is a certain amount of routine—the
ploughing to be done, for instance.
The aggregate crop is intended to justify what is spent
on the students by the state. At least, it is on such an inten
tion that the democratic ideal of education is founded. With
reasonable opportunity those who have aspirations in science,
art or kindred pursuits, should find the seedlings sprouting
presently.
Those who have not such aspirations, have, however,
equal opportunity. The publication of the house averages,
and the recognition that the end of the term is not far away
will soon have its effect in bringing many students flocking
to the library. And whether they do it for their own mental
respectability, ambition, or “for the house,” a certain amount
of ploughing will be done. Economists maintain that it is
better for the landowner to till his own soil. Granted. The
same stands true mentally. Granted again. But even the
“hireling” has his job. And having put the hand to the
plough—.
Albert Spalding
'T'HE ENTHUSIASM with which the large audience re
ceived Albert Spalding, American violinist, who ap
peared in concert Tuesday evening in the Eugene Methodist
Episcopal church, indicates two things: the worth of Mr.
.Spalding as a musician, and the appreciative faculty of his
audience.
Art in any social sense at all requires both these active
and passive elements. The student body music committee
is to be commended for its selection of so eminent an artist
for its concert program this year. The standard set by this
concert and the one preceding, in which Maier and Pattison,
dual pianists, appeared, is a follow-up worthy of last year’s
successful musical season.
Radio—And What-Not
* ■‘•HERE is. we learn, a club being organized in Eugene for
the purpose of improving radio utility, and all interested
faculty members and students are invited to join. “Thus
science does make club men of us all.”
The tremendous growth of this science in the past few
years might be the theme of some interesting speculation,
however. It has done colossal feats of communication. And
has it not further implications? Can it be that the time may
come when the sleepy frosh. who loathes to leave his double
decker for the eight o’clock class will simply “tune in”t
And will the men begin giving long-distance serenades?

WORLD FELLOWSHIP TEA j
HAS COSMOPOLITAN AIR!
Cosmopolitan atmosphere prevail
ed at the tea given at the Y. W. C.
A. bungalow Wednesday afternoon
by the World Fellowship discussion
groups. Representatives of each
group, dressed in native costumes
of their country, served at tables
decorated according to traditions of
the different nations. Fascinating
Turkish ladies, Italians, Koreans
Mexicans and Polos were present.
“The purpose of the tea was two
fold,” said Ellen McClellan, chair
ntan, “first, to add to the Foreigi
Loan fund, which has been estab
lislied at the University of Wash
ington campus, upon which all
northwestern campuses may draw
for their foreign women students.
Teh second purpose was to establish
a convention fund for the Pan-Pa
cific Conference to be held in 1!>
under the auspices of the Y. W. C.
A. in either the Philippines or in
Australia. The Y. W. C. A. on the
Oregon campus wishes to send a rep
resentative to this conference.”

ORCHESUS OPEN HOUSE
DRAWS LARGE CROWD
Orehesus held open house Wed
nesday evening in the Woman’s
building. The program, consisting
of a series of group dances, was
enthusiastically received by a large
audience. Little attempt was made
to create lighting effects, but the
color harmonies were skillfully
worked out, and the result was al
together artistic.
Perhaps the lovliest of all the
lances was “Rendez-vous,” depict
ing a gardner’s dream. “The Rag
Doll Family” with their vacant
staring faces and unjointed move
ments, cut antics that took the audi
ence by storm. “Refugees” was so
well portrayed that there was a
general feeling of depression mani
fested by the audience. The som
ber solors combined with the tone
of the dance to leave an impression
of sadness. “Schon Rosmarin” in
its two interpretations, presented
delightful pictures of color and
life. One of the most effective of
the dances was “Trees” from the
poem by Joyce Kilmer. “Giddap,
My Horses,” sounded a lively note
in the program.
Orehesus is making plans for the
annual Dance Drama to be given
in the early spring at the Heilig.
Pledges are to be initiated at the
meeting next Wednesday night.
Proceeds from “open house” net
ted $37.28.
MAZAMAS POSTPONE
WALK TO MARCOLA
The scheduled Mazama hike tor
next Sunday has been postponed.
This decision was reached by those
in charge yesterday.
Dr. Warren D. Smith, who is to
lead the trip, states that due to the
heavy rains and the character of
the trail over which the hike must
go, it would be best for all if the
trip is postponed for a month, any
way. In a talk with Dr. Smith
yesterday he said, “That country
is the nearest approach to a jungle
that I have seen anywhere in this
section of the country. Even if
Sunday is a fine, bright day, it
would be a very wet, uncomfortable
walk, and we have so many girls
with us on our trips that this same
hike later in the spring will be the
most satisfactory plan.”
The hike, as outlined, is to start
from the administration building
in motor busses and go to Coburg.
From there a trail leads across the
hills to Marcola. This is a dist
ance of about seven and one half
miles. The trip will probably be
re-scheduled for April 12 or 19.
Miss Elsie Dennis, chairman of
the Walks committee has called a
meeting for next Friday night at
which meeting the schedule of trips
for next term will be worked out.
DISPENSARY PATIENTS
READ AND PLAY CARDS
A new recreation place is now
firmly established on the campus,
where carefree students may indulge
in gossip, reading and card games
for at least an hour a day. It is
hidden away in one corner of the
University dispensary, in the chlor
ine room where patients are treated
for colds.
Bridge and other games are very
much in vogue every day, according
to reports from dispensary officials.
Every day three treatments are

RACE WATER SHUT OFF
| WHILE WORK IS DONE
I -
Five dirt-begrimmed men are
laboring in several inches of clay
mud, boring a hole beneath the rail
; road tracks so that a water pipe
! may be run to the mill race.
| Until this pipe is finished, the
campus is without mill race water.
[ The task of boring under the tracks
I has been difficult because of the
rains which have filled the trench
in which the men are working, mak
ing the job a very disagreeable one.,
The distance which must be auger-,
ed under the tracks is 40 feet.!
About 30 more feet must be bored
in the same manner under the pave
ment. This will not be as difficult,
however, says H. M. Fisher, in
charge of the work.

Spring has certainly arrived if
we are to determine it by these
lines of Stoddard.
The ferns which we had on the
tables in the dining room had be
come rather shaggy; so the house
manager bought some primroses,
which add freshness to the room,
at Raup’s Floral Shop. The prim
roses are a week-end special,
and are selling at 40c a plant,
which is remarkably low.

Charlotte finally
A decided to have her
* hair bobbed. All of
• us girls have begged
and teased her to do
it, but sne saia sue ™um a
stand to part with her long hair, p
However, she went over to thej
Co-ed Barber Shop alone and had §
a shingle bob. She really looks g
adorable now, for her hair is so j
light and fluffy. The Co-ed
shop is exclusively for women,
so she said that she was not sub
I jected to the gazes of men while
! her hair was in the bobbing pro
cess.
* * *
Before Charlotte came home
she had a marcel at the Rosa La
Vogue Beauty Shop. It is very
becoming to her to wear her hair
close to her head. I think the
marcel she got at the Rose La
Vogue shop is largely responsible
for the attractiveness of her
bob. This shop gives excellent
marcels and has many satisfied
customers.

I spoke to you last week about
the new vanity bags that Skeie's
have received. Peg bought a
bright jade colored one which
goes with her new spring bonnet.
These bags are small and are
equipped with powder compacts
and mirror. Peg’s has a design
of brilliants on the face and a
black cord handle. It is finished
with a large black tassel which
hangs from the bottom of the
bag. Altogether, the bag gives
her suit a very smart appear
ance.

Will you be down for our for- g
mal, Anne? The lighting effects S
will be marvelous, I know; for g
we are having the White Elec- S
trie Shop prepare all of the fix- %
tures. They are specialists on J
that sort of work and they know j|
exactly what shades are best to g
carry out the scheme. Then, too, §
they will install special spot J

just imagine how successful our
dance will be?
Now that spring has come,
meals are ever so much more ap

had luscious rhubard, which

had some tender, sugar coated
cake doughnuts from there.
Well, such is life in a college
