Having suddenly been thrust into a maelstrom of intoxicating sunshine and gloriously bedecked ginghamy co-eds, he finds himself going ’round and ‘round’ in a grand delirium of spring fever. He recalls from the misty past bits of adolescent psy chology and biology which tend to remind him that the season starting March 21, ever since the earth started tipping on its axis, has been a time of social unrest for the young folks. But like the man pleasantly woozy from his amiable bottle, your fellow sufferer puts aside the cares of the moment, and the realization that his recently acquired spring fever, biologically speaking, is normally healthy and natural. He gazes vacantly into his books and sees vidvidly, Crater Lake—the seashore— the McKenzie—the Highways—Dreadful disease! * * # # Yet a strange fit of depression lias seized your editor. With every indication for the biggest and best and better three months of his life stretching ahead, lie suddenly finds himself drenched in melencholy with apparently no earthly reason for an attitude of the drab. Therefore, wherefrom and how come ? i Introspection and recollections, hastily marshalled, have pro-! duced these reflections— Early yesterday afternoon on the library steps a session was in progress—one of these delightful three o’clock affairs. There was a senior, a junior, and a freshman, the latter a girl.. The two men were carefully observing the springly attired co-eds. The freshman was eager for some hinted scandal. Out in front, by the fountain, swarmed a gay crowd, all in a gorgeous halo of youth and spontaneous good fun. The senior, not cpiite a participant, consciously observed the scene. Somehow they seemed like grasshoppers, hopping, hopping, hopping, but to no end or avail. Then later, several senior men in another session. They were discussing the educational process to which they had been subjected the past four years. Pour splendid years, they agreed, but a good bit of it lost. In fact entirely too much of it lost. They wondered why. For a long time they argued, their whole discussion being based on tllfe confession and the realization that all had not been as it should. # # # * Perhaps in these two sessions we have the cause of the afore mentioned melencholy—a melancholy, or a depression, certainly exist.ant in the minds of many seniors. A conflict of emotions, we are told, wrecks havoc with the peace of mind, and in these seniors, most surely, is a conflict. The desire, born of four years habit, to jump into the beckoning stream of things colle giate and frivolous; this fighting another desire, born of a be lated awakening, to jump into the stream of things worth while. A sad state of affairs? Well rather. But the sad part of the affair is this: That the awakening comes at the end of the senior year and not when it should, at least two years earlier. # • # « IPs not a new phenomenon—this seniorial lament. Year after year the outgoing seniors realize too late that they have drifted through the University scholastically asleep and snor ing; and awakening for a few moments they jump through commencement with good intentions, but with small chance to resist the onslaughts of intellectual lethargy, the child of four years habit. * * * * To many this outburst will sound like polyglot jargon; but to others, particularly to seniors and many faculty members, it will be reasonably intelligible. And to these people that are aware of the situation, the Emerald announces that a group of upperclassmen are going to seek, in their humble way, the an swer to the question. “Why does the average senior wait until the end of his fourth year to ‘wake-up?’” Perhaps the at tempts to solve this dilemma will result in mere air fanning, but we hope otherwise.

The stages started by linking up the hamlets and small towns with the big cities, and firmly entrenching themselves as a public convenience. Now the motor stage has become an absoluu, necessity. Pas sengers find them so reliable, prompt and economical, that they cannot do without them. On the basis of both convenience and necessity, we invite your patronage, and we throw in, for good measure, a pleas ant, enjoyable trip and economy in time and money.
