For the most impressionable years of his life his thoughts and actions revolve around the one axis,—his University. It is at once his world, and his Alma Mater —the recipient of his affections. Loyalty is seldom lacking, be the University large or small, powerful or insignificant. Today Oregon men and women, who are famed for their loyalty, are accorded the privilege of pledging fidelity and loyalty to the University, and apprecia tion to the Oregon commonwealth for the tremendous advantages accorded the members of the University community. Education at the University is largely a matter of take, and not give* and the ceremony today offers a means, in a meager way, to express appreciation of the bountiful bequests of the University and the State. No one can afford to neglect this serv Jack Benefiel, graduate manager, is going about the campus beaming for all he is worth. The receipts at the Califor nia-Oregon game did it. Give him a few more crowds like that, he says, and he’ll bring the student body out of debt in a hurry The Oregon Varsity leaves for Palo Alto and Stanford from Villard Hall im mediately after assembly. Every one should be on hand to give the men a big send off. The team is in the midst of an extremely trying schedule and needs aM the encouragement the students can give. The train leaves at 12:10 p. m. With the term well on towards the half way mark we wonder how many of us are behind in the scholastic race al ready. From Other Schools ONE OUT OF EVERY THREE Only thirty-five per cent of those annually admitted to college ever achieve the goal of a degree. Outside circumstances interefere in many eases, but university officials say that one third of all casualties are simply a matter of Johnnie’s having flunked out. Kxtra-curricular activities, more than all other things, are blamed.—The American Campus. CAFETERIA AND COLLEGE EDUCATION For the past ten years at the Iowa State Col lege the profits accumulating from the Y. W. C. A. cafeteria have been put into a student loan fund which yow totals nearly $112,000. The fund is available to men students in the junior or Renior year with good recommendations and with a scholarship average of 85 per cent or above. i We might suggest this plan to take care of the profits accruing from the much-needed stu dent cafeteria on this campus. Won’t someone please start one! ATTENTION. MEN! If I were a designer Of women's clothes renown, I'd make a hundred pockets In every evening gown. And when she’d hand mo Lip sticks and compacts by the score, I’d snsfile and calmly answer, i “Dearie, that ain’t done no more.” —Red Oat. 1 The Book Nook O—--— ^ The outline of a human life. Cyril Hume in “Cruel Fellowship” gives us Fisher, not a hero but a life. “As the twig is bent so grows the tree”—“Fate is sister, cousin, brother, aunt, grandmother, and wet nurse to the child.” In “Clotho,” the child is born into manhood, held down by narrw Puritanism. His discoveries leave him puzzled rather than understanding. Quiet, reserved, even sullen, he passes through college a failure as far as campus life is con cerned, ending in a passionate and unfortunate outburst at the Prom. “The habit of loneliness had him on a barbed hook which sank deeper aifd held him harder when he struggled to be free.” Laehesis. Developer. Fisher passes quickly through the process of securing a position and becomes settled in a bookshop—at twelve dol lars a week. The boarding house. Landlady. Typical. Drudgery. Terrible. Lonely, lonely . . . . And the woman who might have made him a man. But he could not support her. He had not the will to support her. Poor Fisher— “Fish”—lonely, snuffing out existence in his pitiful nonentity. His understanding of what people think of him. Bitter. He draws the wrong kind of a friend. Fisher would. The disillusionment of realization. His friendship becomes a cheap joke. . Jibes in the bookshop. Thirty-five a week after years of service. Atropos, the pitiful finish. The bright spot when he buys a dog, when it becomes his life only to be 'taken from him. Killed. Then the inevitable bad woman. Sinking. Degradation. Life, life . . . one, two, three. . . We must oonfess we liked Cyril Hume's book, style or no style.” It is a master-work of char acterization. This young mian, not so long ago a college graduate, has far to go into the lit erary field. As Kerry Bcott has said, the book displayed the fine spirit of Hume himself when he tore up the flagstones a few days prior to graduation exercises. A chat on the prelude to “Cruel Fellowship” appeared in Book Nook last Saturday. Next: “The Chicken Wagon Family,” by Barry Benefield. F. M. | 25 Years Ago ' | OREGON WEEKLY Monday November 5, 1900 Multnomah won the big football game from the University of Oregon today. It was not a sensational game. There were few long runs, the ”5 yard dash of McMillan and the clever trick play of Kerrigan being the only one of moment. The score 5 to 0 stands for one of the closest and hardest games ever played in Portland. The play was fierce but not unneces sarily vicious; hard, but clean. Multnomah is^ proud of her victory and honestly so, for she encountered a team full worthy of her prow ess; the University mien aro by no means dis couraged at their showing. They realize that they made the victors feel their presence and that they called forth the most strenuous efforts of their opponents. The editors of the Weekly desire all con tributors when abbreviating University of Ore gon to write it U. O. and not as was formerly the custom with the preposition “of.” The work of the rooters in the campus gaane ast week is deserving of special mention. It vas vigorous and systematic, and it lasted hroughont the entire game. The boys deserve ho heartiest congratulations. Uecomber 14 is the date set for the Senior eception. For thi> second time in its history, the Uni ersity of Oregon will send its football eleven o California. Last year, when the Webfooters let Berkeley, the whole coast was surprised at he result. This season the work in California .ill be watched with the utmost interest The ehedule of games is a hard one, but the Ore onians are in good shape‘for the contests. For students of the University a special rate f !15 cents has been made for the Barlow He'.ke piano recital at the Christian church ext Saturday evening. SEVEN SEERS O--*-----■<$» A policeman with a yellow bill, Tapped upon my window sill, Knocked me on the head and said, “HAVE YOUR LIGHTS ADJUSTED.” Old Sinbad the other day got loquacious and gave vent to his feeling in the following way: “Say,-fellows, I feel so good I could grasp a bo vine by the caudal appendage and hold him hori zontally with the horizon.” Whereupon we all decided he had either just gotten a II on his Report Writing paper, made a heavy date with Helen Manary or had a swig of Fred Henningsen’s healing cough syrup. And now, dear babes, we come to that great item of interest that you have been waiting a whole week for. • Bcause the following have shown themselves worthy in somfc way or other, we nominate them into associate membership in our Order. Ray Rankin, because it may be through his strong pull he might gain favor in the eyes of the Amphibians. Boone HenariCKs because oi ms aomty to tease along the ivories, and because he may sometime be as good looking as his brother. Fran Wardner, because she’s beautiful and dumb, hasn’t got a line and doesn’t fall for one. Billy Giles, because of his high Ideals, and advise to other wandering freshmen. Mayanna Sargent, because of her sense of humor, and because she isn’t afraid of Piggin’ Lane after nine o’clock. Cliff Emmel, because of his ambition to play the pipe organ in the Colonial theatre. Blanch Allen, because she thinks that Os wego Lake is a'much nicer place to live in than New York. Jack Jones, because of his passion for grapenuts and H. G. Wells, and because he had the nerve to tell us that someone came up to him and said “Hello there, Lynn.” Alice La Tour, because she had her first love affair when a freshman at Jefferson high, and has been at it ever since. There w as a young freshman nam,ed Hocket Who wore his green hat in his pocket, He was soundly chastised Before everyone's eyes, And he took it down town to reblock it. **************** * “Mother, what’s that noise upstairs?” * * “Oh, that’s father dragging his heavy * * imderwear across the floor.” * **************** INDEPENDENCE John Silver, patch across his sightless eye, And wooden leg where once a leg could stand, Had never been adored by dimpled maid, He didn’t have a flame in every land. His hat pulled down to hide a face as cruel As cutlasses, that gash and rip and tear Could not conceal a heart, that merciless The pleas of captive maids refused to spare. Hi, then, I would old Silver be, and so When ever dimpled maid would beg a boon, 1 ’d scowl from out one eye to make her cringe, Turn on my wooden leg, and let her swoon. OLAF DABNtT.

Slice a banana in half and roll it in a sugar syrup and I then iu ground chocolate and chopped nuts. Serve it on lettuce with mayon naise and it will be thor oughly enjoyed. Ask your friends how chocolate cookies appeal to them either with or without an icing. We haven’t forgotten the joy of drinking choco late with cinnamon toast or cheese dreams, there is nothing more appetizing. And chocolate fudge! There is no need to dwell on its glory.
