One hundred years ago several seasons were spent in cross ing what is now the United States. Seventy-five years ago it was a matter of months. Twenty five years back it was a matter of weeks, ten years ago it took several days, and now, with high ways in the air it is little more than a matter of hours. If this keeps up presently the Pacific Coast folks will throw together a few sandwiches and spend the day listening to the haranguing crowds in Hyde park, London. Or perhaps the Louvre, or possibly a pleasant chat with a few amiable Latins might suit the taste better. “Too good to be true,’’ sighs the mournful collegian. “We were born here, and here we shall die! But then—Oregon isn’t so bad—” Aye, quite wrong and quite right. We were born here and most of us shall die here; and Oregon isn’t so bad. But that is small reason why the Oregonian should tarry in Oregon all his life. In fact, the native shm of Oregon who fails to pick up his travelling togs and ramble is doing himself and his community a rank injustice. For instance, the collegian. When he has graduated he is in the most care free period of his life. If fortunate, he has nio lady love to hinder him. He has no family to care for, yet is old enough to assume responsibility for his own actions. He has no job that will suffer from his absence. From his Ameri can university training he has gathered a fair basketful of resourcefulness. His formal education will enable him to fairly well understand what he sees. And travel—the finest teacher at the post college period will assimilate and re-enforce his formal education into an invaluable possession for the whole of his remaining life. And remember this: the world is growing smaller; but for the college graduate of 1926 the world is never so small as today. Every year out of college, with families, and jobs, and worries and what-not, the world grows bigger and broader and wider; and the young man who waits to> “go later” in nine chances out of ten will never go at all. So out and away, we cry! Let’s all go ’round the world! even the best of philosophers can promise only one life on this world, so why not make the most of it while we may? No More Good Laughs Until the Seven Seers Party A gala occasion, was it not? And did you ever see such a fine group of nominators? Verily, we should say this: that nominators instead of nominees should be elected to offices. Because persons (nom inators) with the extraordinary powers of insight universally displayed in ferreting out golden qualities (which no one else had ever seen before) in the nominees, surely have the abilities (as evidenced by this marvelous insight) to run student body affairs much better than the nominees. Therefore, in view of the great injustice to the student body in keeping out these splendidly efficient and capable persons, the Emerald suggests that the names of nominators in place of nominees, be entered on the ballots next Wednesday. (From all sides) Uuzzah! Iluzzah! Last Call for Payment of Fees; Why Throw Away Good Money? Pay your fees. After Saturday noon, if fees are not paid, the University will exact an extra three dollars and you will be that much poorer. Three dollars will buy a good book, or twelve gallons of gasoline or sixty ice cream cones, all of infinitely greater value to the collegian than three dollars blood money to the Uni versity. So pay your fees—today. Chemists Will Inspect Eugene Woolen Mill The Oregon section of the Amer ican Chomaea! Society which moots here Saturday, has made arrange ments to go through thp Bugene ■Woolen Mills factory on Sixth and Mill streets at 4:30 that, afternoon. In the evening, after dinner at the Anchorage, there will be three lectures on subjects dealing with chemistry, one by Dr. Charles John son from Oregon Agricultural Col lege on tho subject of “Some Plith aleins Containing a Pyrone Group; another by Mr. Leonard Cooper from the Braui<- Knecht - Heiman company who will tell about “Some of the Problems of \ Laboratory Supply House," and the third by JT. 8. Jones of Oregon Agriculture College, who will preseut his results on “Crowing Hard Wheat with irri gation." Both the trip through the mill* end the lectures in the evening are open to the public,according to II. G. Tanner, associate professor of chemistry, and secretary of the Ore gon section of the organisation. ; No Guest Policy Stands For Junior Week End The coming Junior Week-end, May 7, 8, and 9, will be another guestless week-end following the policy of the last three years, ac cording to Walter Maleoln\ presi dent of the A.8.TT.O. At the last meeting of the student council ac tion on this subject wns taken and it was decided to continue tho present policy that there shall be no guests on the campus for Junior Week end. —Pay Your Fe«s— Tk SEVEN : SEERS SIRUS PINCHPENNY’S DIARY Dp agrog and in no good spirits for the many cigars and handshakes | which are thrust upon me by the many aspiring candidates who stand for everything from “Birth Con trol of Mosquitos,” to the prohibit ing of “Playing at Horseshoes in the Library.” Anon comes scriv ener Nealon and she tell me a leg story which did tickle my sense of the 'comical no little bit. To wit1 “Is a man ever pained by his wooden leg?” “No, Billy.,1” And then the first person did say “Oh yes it does—when he gets hit over the head with it. Wayne Leland in a paper for Specialized Press class has the fol lowing bit of clever comment: “About the only change most fra ternities have in their breakfast menu is the news in the Emerald.” And for a comeback we quote from this week’s editions.

ORDER THE “O” Little Symphony To Appear Here Monday Night Orchestra Directed by George Barriere Will End Concerts The Little Symphony, organized by George Barrere, which is to ap pear here Monday night at the Me thodist Church in the last concert of the A.S.U.O. series for this term, has been called the “best little or chestra in the world.” It has en joyed a distinctive place in the musical world for a number of years. Not only is the orchestra famous itself for its intrinsic value, but its director and founder is classed among the great musicians of the world. “To criticise the Little Symphony is a hard thing for me to do, for I know Barrere best as a teacher and a fine one at that. As imasteT of his own instrument he excels, and he knows music so well that he can make his ensemble as fine as his solo instrument. His explanations of the program are truly delightful,” said one of his flute students. Mr. Barrere came to this country in 1905 at the invitation of Walter Damrosch, the leader of the NeV York Symphony Orchestra, and he has been a member of that organi zation ever since. Barrere brought to America something besides his reputation and his flute—he brought with him an active mind and a constructive brain. In 1910 he revived the “Society of Modern Wind Instruments” which he had organized in Europe, under the title of the Barrere En semble—consisting of flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, and horn, an or ganization especially adapted to programs of %n intimate nature. In 1924 an organization known as the Little Symphony under the direction of George Barrere came into existence. Brought into being ostensibly at a concert for the ben efit of the American Bed Cross, it attained such distinction and suc cess as to warrant its continua tion. In reality it became the suc cessor to the Barrere ensemble with an additional trumpet, tympani, and string choir, and this little orchestra of thirteen renders music in such ^delicate and captivating a fashion that it imparted practic ally a new character to it. Bar rere has succeeded in bringing to light many of the effects often lost in the larger orchestral renditions due to his skill in adapting them to the intimacy of chamber music proportions. The coming of this orchestra will offer a unique program for the cam pus music followers. Nothing of this kind has ever before been pre sented before the student body, and a large crowd is anticipated. Poetry Magazines Take Verse by Walter Kidd Walter Evans Kidd, senior in English, has placed a “Sonnet to a Ranch Wife” with Poetry magazine, edited in Chicago by Harriet Mon roe, and two lyrics, “Beauty Plunges to the Whips of May” and “The Pasture Trail” with Lyric, a journal of verse published in Vir ginia. In the recent number of Ly ric West appeared “A Sea-Diver Speaks to his Inland Love” and in the Harp magazine a lyric “Butter cup Dawn” and “Now Wo Shall Live.” Everbcdy’s Magazine has prom ised to accept his story, “Arak’s Black Stepson,” about seven thou sand words long if he alters its end ing as the editors suggested. It deals with a tropic romance. —Pay Your Fees— 'Theaters BEX— first day: the Ace of Ad venture, Hoot Gibson in “Chip of the Flying IT,” a eyelonie eomedy drama adapted from the most pop ular romance of the range ever written, and with a large east of favorites in support of the likable “Hoot;” Century comedy “Chieken Chasers;” International news events, J.

Summer School Plans Compiled by Stetson Ready to Distribute The bulletin published by the Un versity announcing the summer ses sions plans, came off the University! Press yesterday. The forty page bulletin was compiled by Prof. F. L. Stetson, director of the Eugene summer sessions and Dean Alfred Powers, director of the summer se sions. It gives an outline and de scription of the courses to be taught both in the regular summer and the post summer sessions. This year will mark the twenty second annual summer sessions' of the University held simultaneously on the campus and in the Port land center. The Eugene session will be devoted largely to instruction of a specialized, advanced, or grad uate nature. Elementary courses will be given in subjects for which the demand is heavy, or which will necessitate the use of specialized facilities. In the Portland center, under-graduate courses, of a more general or popular appeal will be offered and advanced work will be restricted to courses in which sub stantial enrollment can be predict ed. The summer session staff will be composed largely of members of the University faculty. Ten in structors from other institutions and public school administrators from other states will give special cours es in fields in which they have achieved distinction. —Pay Your Pees— V.H.S. Quartettes Will Sing at Forest Grove A boys’ and a girls’ quartette and three soloists from these groups of the University high school are to sing at the state contest at Forest Grove this week-end. About 500 students will be guests of Pa cific university at this timie. It is the third time this contest has been held, according to Mrs. Landsbury Beck, of the school of ntusic, who ■ is accompanying the students. Mrs. Beck returned Tues day from Detroit, Michigan, where she attended the National Music Supervisors’ Conference. —Pay Your Fees— Glee Clubs to Be Housed in Hotels On Future Trips Executive Council Makes General Music Policies For Campus In the future students taking glee club tours will be housed and fed in hotels in the same manner as athletic teams when they aro traveling. This action was taken by the executive council at a meet ing yesterday noon. Action in regard to the m-usic policy of the University was taken. It was decided to establish perma nency in the conduct of musical af fairs on the campus. The music committee agrees to assume respon sibility for general campus music propaganda. In this capacity the committee will take charge of pro moting community singing, assist in handling music for assemblies, in struct freshmen in Oregon songs,, instruct organization song leaders, keep Oregon song books up to date, and maintain and direct an annual Song Week. The council adopted a report of the music committee which approves the type of program for the Glee club and orchestra concerts similar to that held this year; and when possible it is planned to hold a dance in connection with the con certs, to help raise funds, and te enable the students to mix with the people of the state. A college or chestra will be taken along to pro vide music for these dances, it was decided. Attempts will be made in the fu ture to put over all glee club con certs professionally and to get away from charity by selling tic kets solely on the merits of the campus.
