Vacation Tours Include Many Foreign Cities American Students Will Be Guests on Eight Week Cruise The International Confederation of Students is arranging twelve programs for this summer when a paTty of twelve or fourteen Ameri can students can spend about eight weehs as guest* of European stu dents. The first tour is scheduled for June 19 to September 15. The other tours are interspersed through out tho vacation months of July, August, and September. Concessions in fare and passages have been granted to the Confedera tion by the authorities, so the separ ate trips will average about $500, some run “ as high as $695, but a number are as low as $40u. A wide range of cities are in cluded in the program, but a visit to Geneva, Switzerland and Paris, Prance are scheduled in almost all the tours. The programs are: Tour 1, England; Tour 2, Prance and Switzerland; Tour 3, Central Eu rope; Tour 4, Western Europe;; Tour 5, London, Berlin, Paris and Geneva; Tour 6, The Grand Tour; Tour 7, Around the Baltic; Tour 8, The Balkan Peninsula. Pour other tours will take in Begium, Germany and the Scandinavian peninsula. The purpose of these vacation programs is to foster relations be tween American and European stu dents. They are not the usual tour ist trips in which one visits Gothic castles and museums only. The stu dents who are fortunate enough to go abroad under the Confederation will be entertained by students abroad, will attend varied public functions, formal and informal part ies and tramp through picturesque villages with them. The tours will be truly educational, yet one does not have to study.

Peculiar Moss Forms Found by Botanists Seven different liverwort forms of Hepatic mosses were found by botanists who visited Judkin’s point yesterday. Miss Ethel San born, instructor in botany, and Haz el Hayden, senior in the depart ment are making a study of Oregon mosses as a subject for theses. Miss Sanborn has previously done botanical work at Stanford Univer sity and she states that this form was not found during their research work there. Another kind of moss sends up tiny needle-like blades jn which the spores are hidden. The shoots do not enlarge, but merely turn black in the portions where the spores are lodged. The different varieties , of moss are kept on plates containing heavy paper which is kept wet. Glass jars are placed over these and the plants remain green and thriving for months.

It was a hot act alright—steam rose from the brows of the S.A.E. ’s (Sleep And Eat boys), but they seemed to hold themselvos back from rushing the stage. The Chi Psi “Loggers” and the Kappa Delta Phi “Sawdust Eat ers,” fell head-on into the orchestra pit in a vain attempt to get a bet ter view—a case where over anx iousness lost out. Jack Gin Seabrook—the ham front the Sigma Chi “Bottling Works,” led the yells between acts—to en courage the actors with Oregon spirits (ginger-ale—pale dry). Dicky Syring, running a race for the Orogana editorship—passed out samples of light wines and beers. He was declared a clever hand shaker.

Ninety £er cent of the things bought for your home are se lected by the house manager. He is the purchasing agent. Most men admit that he is a capable buyer, and the reason is this: he must be shown — convinced by proof — that an article is what the house needs and is worth the price! For that reason, he sees the advantage of dealing with a local merchant-—a man whose “personal guarantee of satisfaction” means just what it says. The manager knows that what he advertises in this paper is entitled to his consideration. Because he has confidence in his neighbor—the local dealer—he can safely invest the house funds in what he guarantees. Read the Ads in This Paper and save yourself money by trading at home
