Existence Justified?
'JpHE PLAY given by Mask and Buskin, chapter of Associated
University Players, Thursday evening was most enjoyable
entertainment. The fraternity, in producing “Kempy,” proved
its worth. It furnished an outlet for campus stage talent, and
it gave pleasure to a large number of University folk.
Acted and directed by its members only, the organization
carried out a principle other clubs and fraternities of similar
nature should consider. This is the principle of being worth
while. There are others, indeed, which can justify existence on
like grounds. Among these, and not attempting to include or
exclude, weigh or balance, judge or sentence, but merely by way
of illustration, may be mentioned Mu Phi Epsilon and Phi Mu
Alpha, musical fraternities, each of which has given a delight
ful program before the student body this school year.
Siich organizations, professing to take only those who have
shown capabilities, or ambition toward development, in their
particular field, have a very wholesome effect on the students
in their schools. They furnish a stimulus to honest endeavor
and attainment of excellence in work. They are a goal, a
worthy goal, to the underclassman. The freshman has something
tangible and real to strive for. In the process he will gather to
himself, also, those intangible and abstract influences of cul
ture so essential.
In contrast to these and other worthy organizations there
are many clubs, honorary fraternities, and other groups on
this campus which do not have any apparent excuse for exist
ence, other, perhaps, than offering opportunities for a few stu
dents to hold the offices of president, sergeant-at-arms and
other “honors.”
It would be well for all organizations to “check up” on
themselves and determine if they are worth the student-hours
devoted to them, or w’hether they simply consume valuable time
and energy in “going through” useless formalities. In other
words, are they really worth-while? Do they benefit anything
or anybody? Have they a job to do? Are they doing it? The
Emerald believes there is a very considerable number, which,
in answer to these questions, would be forced to answer, “No!”
“Going, Going,—Gone!”
4<^jOING once! Going twice! Going three times! Gone!
Gone to the young co-ed in Russian galoshes. Step for
ward, please, and take this fine fountain pen lost and unclaimed
by some careless owner!"
Such will be the fate of many an orphan "slave"—um
brellas, compacts, pencils, pens, coats, and all other trinkets
and treasures, many with sentimental values, gathered in by
the University Lost and Pound department up to November of
last. year. There is one more chance left for the forsaken ar
ticles to find their rightful masters, on Monday afternoon be
tween 3 and 3:30 o’clock in Journalism building.
Tuesday morning, at 10 o’clock, three hard-hearted and in
exorable auctioneers, Randall Jones, Bob Mautz and James
Leake, will turn a deaf ear to any entreaties of prior right and
"knock ’em down” to the highest bidder. The auction block
will be on the Library steps.
Don’t you hear that poor, lonely pen given you by some
gallant calling aloud to be saved this awful fate of being sold
"down river" into alien hands? One chance left to heed the
call!
'Welcome news comes from the direction of the Music build
ing. Dedication of the music auditorium, postponed a number
of times, is promised within the next three weeks. Formal
opening of the hall has been eagerly awaited by the many cam
pus people interested in music. Decorations and architecture,
richly combined, will produce an atmosphere enhancing the
enjoyment of any concert. Restriction of availability to pro;
grams of the highest class only and the consequent associations
should make of it. traditionally, a center of joy and inspiration.
Campus Bulletin
Notices will be printed in this column
tor two issues only. Copy must be
in this office by 6:30 on the day before
it is to be published, and must be
limited to 20 words.
Dr. Wheeler’s Class in Systematic
psychology will meet again at the
regular time on Wednesday,
March 4.
JAPAN8E8 PRUNE TREE
BLOOMS IN EVIDENCE
The Japanese prune tree which
stands back of Friendly hall is in
bloom. The tree blossoms every
year long before it puts forth its
leaves. This is one of the first
to bloom on the campus, the white
Spirea and yellow Forsythia being
the only other plants which are
blossoming.
The magnolia bushes are budding
and with a few more sunny days
their large flowers will be in evid
ence, says H. M. Fisher, superin
tendent of grounds, who watches
the campus shrubbery and sees the
first blossoms that appear.

ZOOLOGISTS TO HAVE
SUMMER SCHOOL CAMP
Something new in summer session
work is being planned for this sum
mer in the form of a zoology camp
at Sunset Bay, fourteen miles west
of Marshfield. Only a limited num
ber of students will be allowed to
sign up for the course, since too
many cannot be accommodated.
The camp will last from June 22 to
July 25, although registration for
the course must be made by June
10.
Eight hours credit will be given
for the class, which will study all
manner of marine zoology. Sunset
study Bay is ideally located for
such a study with many
rocky projections, tide pools,
sandy beaches, mud flats and shal
low water. The students will live
in four cottages and in tents. Al
though it is difficult to estimate,
the zoology faculty believes that
$75 will cover all expenses, includ
ing fees and board. Students will
be boarded at cost, and will be re
quired to furnish only their own
bedding, notebooks, hand lenses and
dissecting instruments. Microscopes
and books will be furnished by the
department.
A few students who have taken
no zoology previously will be al
lowed to enter the class. All those
wishing to sign up should make im
mediate plans, however, since regis
tration will be limited.

“THE NEW SCIENCE AND
THE OLD FAITH”
An Address by Dr. L. F. Giffin, Head of the De
partment of Biology at Reed College, at the Unitarian
Church, Sunday morning.
Dr. Griffin has been secured to give the address at
the annual Laymen’s Service of the local Unitarian
church. The service begins at 10:45 o ’clock.
There is a new and fundamental philosophy of life
emerging in our times inspired by Science and moulded
by the scientific method. Dr. Griffin is a brilliant
scholar with rare gifts of exposition. Few men are
better qualified to interpret this new philosophy.
The musical program will include a duet by Robert
McKnight and Robert Hunt.
University men and women are cordially invited
to attend this service at “The Little Church of the
Human Spirit.”
