Butler Addresses Campus Normal Club The solution of the present con dition of political and social unrest in the world is seen in the present tendency of the public school by J. B. V. Butler, the Grand Old Man of the Oregon Normal school faculty. Mr. Butler addressed the O. N. S. club of Monmouth graduates on the Oregon campus, Wednesday evening. “The modern trend in education is to train children to think,” he said. “Today we are teaching children instead of textbooks. Facts are incidental to the greater end. They are used as the material from which to develop judgment and reasoning power in the child.” The aim of the school today, he continued, is to whet the appetite of the pupil and inspire in him a desire to explore further_the fields of information. He is trained to line up facts in their proper rela tion to each other and to arrive at a logical conclusion. This is a real preparation for life. “The change in the training of teachers preceded the development in public schools,” Mr. Butler said. The method now used in normals permits a wide latitude of judg ment and thought on the part of the student-teacher. Various meth ods and theories of teaching are pointed out, and it is left to the individual teacher to distinguish the best in them and adapt that later to her requirements. When asked how he proposed to build up a well-developed teaching force from women teachers whose term of service in the work was so extremely uncertain, Mr. Butler pointed out that most of those teach ers who left the school room con tinued to carry on the work in their own homes. The school could never do more than supplement the more important element of training in the home. Mr. Butler is himself an example of the ideal teacher. Begistration in his courses is regularly out of all mathematical proportion to tl\e floor space in his classroom. Each term Mr. Butler is confronted with the problem of the old lady who lived in a shoe.

But, Boy there's been a lot of progress made and in another week it 's going to look like a new place. One of the new features that Obak has incorporated in liis new pool room is the mezzanine floor. This is to be used for his billiard parlor and will bo something en tirely new and novel for every pool player in Eugene. Obak regrets very much that the boys will not be able to hold their tegular pool tournament this month, but promises that they will have a bigger and better place to meet ifter April 1.

Kampus OLLUM The big spring drive for the Stu- : lent Union building has begun with a bang. The fellows at jObak’s have all turned out 100 per cent with their pledges, and now they | ire back to normalcy—shooting ; their regular old game of billiards. Neither spring weather nor gift1 •umpaigns can keep the “sharks” | from having their little game. Last night's class struggles were a bgi success, and a big time was ; had by all (the usual thing). It was noticed that a number of the j fellows who could not dance, gath- i ered at Obak's where the regular Friday session was held. Baseball now holds the leading position in athletics at the univer sity. Yesterday saw the opening of the first game for the Oregon nine.! It was certainly a torrid battle, which was enjoyed by all of Obak’s fans. Obak’s poetry critic now has to decide the pressing question as to whether the column of poetry print-1 ed in the Emerald contains any poetic beauty. It is surprising that a man, who is so well read, could have shocked the “savages” and started a “high school harangue.” Of course it has to be admitted that the poetry is generally -, but then it has to be acknowledged that the source is not the best. ire to meet in front of the Ad ninistration building Sunday morn ng; they are cautioned to be on ime, as the group will leave there it 8:30 promptly. Those who are going are warned 0 come prepared with lunch, a tin :up, and some money, as the trip s to be an all-day affair. Hot :offee will be served at ten cents 1 cup at noon, and the bus fare vill amount to sixty or seventy onts.
