Different Phases of Life
In Ten Countries Object
Of Fellowship Meetings
The end of a successful routine
is being rapidly gained by the
World Fellowship discussion groups.
“I think our groups have been very
successful,” said Ellen McClellan,
chairman of the World Fellowship
committee. “I feel that our groups
this year have been more presenta
tions of material, rather than dis
cussions of. problems. However, I
feel that the countries we have
studied have given a good founda
tion for next year’s work.
"We haven’t attempted to cover
the countries thoroughly, only to
interest girls so they will do other
research work and study on their
own initiative. Hue to the fact
that we have had Miss Louks, who
is an expert on discussion groups,
here to advise us, we feel that the
leaders next year will be competent
to carry on real discussions, rather
than mere presentations. Discus
sion must deal with situations which
have two sides, whereas presenta
tions present only the facts,” she
said. “Discussions are made more
interesting by the intermingling of
different ideas; agreement is the
pitfall of discussion.
Girls Brought Together
One of the big things which the
discussions have accomplished for
the good of the whole campus, Miss
McClellan thinks, is that it has
brought girls in contact with each
other who otherwise would never
have become acquainted. Girls from
different living organizations at
tended meetings of the discussion
groups and thereby broadened their
acquaintenances. The discussion
groups were under the organiza
, tion of the Y. W. C. A.
The leaders were: Katherine
Reade, Australia; Josephine Evans,
Argentina; DeLoris Pearson, India;
Frances Dodds, Norway; Edna
Spenker, Turkey; Genevieve Chase,
Switzerland; Maxine Koon, Italy;
Gladys Calef, Korea; Oneita Wirtz,
Mexico; Elsie Bolt, Poland. Ten
meetings were held, each time
taking up a different phase of life
in the particular country studied.
FINE URTS BUILDING
DRIVE TO BEGIN SOON
The drive to raise funds for the
erection of a fine arts building on
the campus will begin during spring
vacation. The campus committee
in charge consists of Mrs. George
T. Gerlinger, Virginia Judy Esterly,
dean of women, and Georgia Ben
son.
The plans of the committee in
volve the organization by counties
of the entire state, with each town
represented in its county committee.
There will be an undergraduate
chairman in each county, and it is
expected that there will also be an
alumni chairman for each commit
tee.
The drive will extend over a per
iol of three years. Funds will be
raised by pledges, cash donations,
parties given for money making,
and gifts for a bazaar to be held
in Portland at. some future date.
President P. L. Campbell has sup
plied the campaign slogan, “There
are times in a man’s life when
beauty is the most useful thing in
the world.”
Bean Esterly has said that they
expect the representative of each
town to give a report after spring
vacation, and that they would more
than appreciate volunteers to help
in the campaign work.

SIGMA XI INITIATION
TO BE HELD TONIGHT
Dr. Harvey and Dr. Hodge
To Speak to Club
Sigma Xi, national honorary sci
entific organization will initiate
two new members tonight at the
regular monthly meeting at 7:30
o’clock. Mrs. Ellen Condon Mc
Cornack and Louis F. Henderson
are the new active members whose
research is being recognized by the
organization.
Mrs. McCornack is the daughter
of the late Thomas Condon, first
professor of geology at the Univer
sity and pioneer geologist of Ore
gon. Mrs. McCornack has done a
great amount of geological work.
Mr. Henderson is a researcher in
botany and iB curator of the her
barium at Deady hall. He has done
botanical work in Oregon since
1879.
Following the business meeting,
two talks will be given by scien
tists. Dr. E. M. Harvey, professor
of horticultural research at Oregon
Agricultural college will speak on
"An Explanation of Certain Growth
Responses of Apple Shoots to Ring
ing and Defoliation.” Dr. Edwin T.
Hodge, professor of geology, will
discuss the “Geology of the Three
Sisters Region.” Dr. Hodge spent
six weeks last summer in the region
and mapped the district. The meet
ing is open to the public.
PIPE LINE INSTALLED
FROM RACE TO CAMPUS
The water pipe line connecting
the campus with the mill race is at
last installed in its new place, lead
ing from the University heating
plant under the railroad tracks and
Pacific highway to the race.
The work of moving the pipe line
from its former place near the old
heating plant has taken several
weeks of hard labor owing to the
disagreeable weather conditions un
der which the tunneling had to be
done. The pumps are ready and
will be connected the latter part of
this week, stated H. M. Fisher,
superintendent of grounds. The en
tire campus grounds are supplied
with water from the race by this
system.
COLD EPIDEMIC SPREADS
OVER UNIVERSITY CAMPUS
The unsettled weather of this
week, coming on top of the ex
posure of the numerous trips to
basketball games over the week
end, has resulted in a considerable
epidemic of colas on the campus, ac
cording to Dr. G. A. Ross. The Uni
versity dispensary has been very
busy treating colds of various de
grees of seriousness this week.
The chlorine gas treatment as
well as the other cold treatments,
have been unusually well attended
during the past few days. Late
hours of study due to the extreme
nearness of examinations is an
other possibility which is advanced
as a possible cause of the cold
epidemic.
MAJORITY OF VASSAR GIRLS
WANT SMOKING LENIENCY
Yassar College.—If smoking cig
arettes can be taken as a basis of
judgment, Vassar’s campus is in a
still moro degenerate state than the
Michigan campus. Tabulations in
dicated that 524 girls asserted that
they did not use tobacco while 433
admitted that they indulged oc
casionally. A campus vote was tak
en to ascertain whether or not the
girls wished the present rules bar
ring smoking on or off the campus
to be made more lenient. The result
of this referendum was 539 in fa
vor of more lenient rules and 278
for continuance of the present
blanket prohibition.
SHRUBS WILL BEAUTIFY
TENNIS COURT COTTAGE
The tennis court cottage is being
made more attractive by the plant
ing of shrubs and ferns around its
walks and porches. Later on when
the ground is warmer, lawns will be
graded and grass planted around the
building, states H. M. Fisher,
superintendent of grounds. The
cottage is for the convenience of
the student tennis players and will
be equipped with dressing rooms
and lockers for both men and wo
men.
R. 0. T. C. EXAMINATIONS
SCHEDULE OUTLINED
Examinations for all freshman,
junior, and senior military classes

There will be no drill classes for
any R. O. T. C. companies next
week. List of absences have been
read off in the meetings of the
various companies and men who
have unexcused absences must make
them up this week, according to the
R. O. T. C. headquarters.

like experience.
New Youth Buies
By the 19th century, childhood
pointed out, and “old-man councils
and youth had faded again, he
had come together to rule the af
fairs of men.” But new youth came
again at the end of the century, and
the 20th century is a time of ma
turity for that period, he said.
“The spiritual enterprise of such
men as Darwin, rather than his
facts, are being used as means of
thinking,” Rabbi Wise said in
speaking of the liberation of human
energy and expressing the new
power that people used to think
should be restrained.
“If you have in your four years
here attained that higher spiritual
and intellectual plane,” the Rabbi
warned in concluding, “you will be
able to go back to the village from
which you came and not find it too
small to live in, or to serve its mem
bers.”
Senior Women to Hold
Sway Over Dates; Leap
Week to Be Held Soon

of the weather. The Kappa Alpha
Theta and Delta Gamma houses are
also arranging for participation in
an event to be arranged later.
Senior Leap week has become a
traditional affair at the University,
having been instituted three years
ago. Previously, it has been ar
ranged during the fall term, but it
is thought that even greater suc
cess will attend it in the spring.
From April 1 to 4, the senior girls
hold full sway as to dates. Dates
are not to be made until the night
of Open House, when, contrary to
regular Open House, the girls visit
the men’s houses.
As in some houses there are only
one or two senior girls, it is ar
“Pass the Butter
Please”
Did you ever eat homemade bread, still warm
from the oven and spread with smooth creamy
butter, half melted, accompanied perhaps by a
tall glass of frostly lemonade? Did you ever
sneak a piece of butter when you were a kid
in the kitchen and Mother wasn’t looking.
Did you ever? Of course you did- and if you
are usuing Blue Bell butter now you are just as
fond of it as you were of that other. BLUE
Bell is the kind of butter that makes every
body ask for more.
