Dr. Miriam Van Waters
rJ^HE SPEAKER at yesterday’s assembly is an Oregon gradu
ate. In the 17 years since her graduation she has been
doing things. “The greatest social forces are clear ideas in the
minds of energetic men and women of good will,” she said in
her address. Her own activity in the field of social work indi
cates that she is of that energetic, intelligent, trained group
which is taking a scientific attitude toward the seeds of .crime
involved in juvenile delinquency with the ultimate purpose of
reducing the criminal crop in this country.
Dr. Van Waters holds the position of referee in the juvenile
court of Los Angeles. This title, she explains, comes from
chancery law which deals with questions of the welfare of the
community, but with no intention of punishment. There is no
hint of punishment in the attitude taken toward offenders
brought before the court, and the use of criminal procedure is
eliminated. Rther it is the cause of the break down in the
individual that is investigated, and the reaction in the mind of
the child to its associations is considered rather than a super
stitious faith in the measurements of its skull. The personality,
and background of the individual are lifted out of the abstract
and become subject to individual treatment.
The University is proud to hold up just such women as Dr.
Miriam Van Waters as an epitome of its purpose. Who can'
deny that her training in sociology, psychology and philosophy
has not made possible her broad sympathetic outlook on the
affairs of her fellow men, and the fact that she can Avrite a
Ph.D. after her name makes her no less a woman. Her address
indicated her conception of the value of the home, and the
tragedy of maladjustment for the child when economic activ
ities crowd out the proper atmosphere.
From the sentiments expressed on the campus, Dr. Van
Waters lias won a place for herself in the estimation of the
students. And avo will express the opinion we have been hear
ing since assembly yesterday morning:
“We like her!”
The Chance Ahead
JN THE most terrific game ever played by an Oregon team, the
Oregon Agricultural College won from the Varsity 15 to 12
last night. So fast and so close was the game, so excellent the
team work, the cheeking and the passing, that criticism of
either team would be out of place. Both fought hard, and 0.
A. C. won.
Oregon still has a chance to come out ahead, and that chance
will be grasped with vigor Saturday night. It is strange that
every game Oregon has lost has been on the Armory floor, and
that not a game has been lost away from home.
The Varsity will go to Corvallis Saturday prepared to play j
even better than they did here, and with the same amount of j
fight. “Dope” might give the Aggies the advantage, but Ore-;
gon fight will figure strongly. This fight is a factor to count j
on—it was what won the Idaho and the Washington game when :
to lose either meant the loss of a chance at the title.
Oregon students are not dismayed at the defeat last night. '
Three points is a mighty small margin, too small to say that i
one team is better than the other. The Varsity will fight to j
win tomorrow, and will fight harder when the third game
is played.
SYRACUSE ESTABLISHES I of citizenship and public affairs.

Syracuse University.—Syracuse racy and the citizen’s duty in a
nniversity has established a school democracy.

Black Magic
Fear thou to love me, for I bring dark gifts.—
Pomegranates over-ripe and sickly sweet—
The thin sharp chill of a black fog that lifts
From blacker sea; upon the stony street
A tarnished copper coin’s metallic ring.
The swirl of poisonous incense round a head
Of carved jade.—Ah, sasd, dark gifts I bring.
This too: the ashes of this heart, long dead.
—MARGARET SKAVLAN, in “Voices.”

Buttercup Dawn
The buttercups hold
The lyric of truth
In silence of gold
For first of our youth.
A calico girl
With eden-blue eyes,
Heard larks uncurl
Their souls in the skies.
An overall boy
With freckle-tan nose,
Felt crystal joy
In one pause of time
They both now are gone—
Thru dew on his toes.
Life spun the dawn
To buttercup rhyme.

And you cried out for purple
to the dying light
And, since you were young,
you were answered
with rags and bangles
torn from the aching, intolerable sunset.
You walk proudly, ‘
wearing them
in an aura of crimson laughter,
Nor, till the far-off advent of tomorrow
will come the supercillious crowds
in their correct, uncompromising frock-coats,
calling you clown.

White Gifts
Hear me, Beloved, hear me my skylark cry
White-over-white with whiter dawn
And tremulous with lilied dew.
Three gifts I bring, three dream-white gifts—

The slim curve of a flying silver swan,
The elfin sweetness of the love that grew
Through my heart’s lonelv, lonely rifts.

Far away—near at hand
Always—Someone is there for me

Across the source of light.

UNITED CHRISTIAN BOARD
HEARS REPORT OF WORK
The advisory board of the Uni
versity of Oregon United Christian
Work met at a dinner last night.
A review of the campus work of the
organization during the present
term was made. Reports were had
from Henry W. Davis, director, and
from other officers. The success of
the series of Wednesday weekly
religious lectures and of the series
of Fred B. Smith addresses is par
ticularly noteworthy, it was de
clared. These two ventures, both
sponsored by the organization, were
outstanding events on the campus
during the term.
STUDENT GROUP TO HEAR
NOTED EVANGELIST SOON
Victoria Booth-Clibborn Demur
est, noted evangelist, and grand
daughter of General William Booth,
founder of the Salvation Army, is
to speak before a student group on

A. student cabinet. The young
people’s United Church society is

Stepping Out?
You can’t step out on
a slick date with any
feeling of confidence
when you have dingy
shoes.
Drop in and let us
shine ’em up; give
your kicks a glossy
finish.

ANNE DEAR:
Really, it doesn’t seem possible
that this term is so nearly over
Just think, Anne, only two weeks
more and we will be together
again. There are ever so many
beautiful things in the shops
here that I am having a terrible
time deciding what things I want
most, for I promised mother and
dad that I would have all of my
spring clothes bought before I
come home for vacation.

As we have become tired of
the heavy cretonne drapes and
other trimmings for the room,
we are busily engaged in making
| a new bedroom outfit, which we
1 got at Phares’ Baby Shop. It
| consists of spread, vanity set,
| scarf, curtains, pin cushion and
| boudoir pillow. They are made
| of white voile with a maize bor
| der and lace trimmed. All that
| we have to do is work the simple
| but effective designs. I’m more
| than pleased with my share of
1 it, for I am making one of those
| clever Peggy Louise doll pillows
I that are so adorable.

Edith and Helen had a “date
party” the other night in their
room. Everything was carried
out so cleverly; but the best part
of it all, we thought, was the
stuffed dates. She bought Deg
let Noor dates, that are put up
in California, and fresh Brazil
nuts at Underwood and Elliott’s
Grocery. She removed the stones
and filled the dates with the
nuts, then rolled them in pow
dered sugar. They were deli
cious.

The latest adornment are the
new bracelets which Skeie's have
just stocked. These match the
new colored pearl chokers. The
bracelets are combinations of
white pearls and colored ones.
One with gold pearls attracted
me, it just matched a choker of
large gold pearls which I am very
fond of wearing with my formal.
Did I tell you that I am going
to the Frosh Glee with my one
time secret sorrow? Not bad, eh?
