THE rivalry of the patterns is
the history of the world
—William James.
The Long Hand
Of Moscow Again
Ip YOU happened to read and
agree with the anti-war speeches
made by Kirby Page, Mordecai
Johnson and a few kindred spirits at
the recent Milwaukee student feon
ference, keep your opinions to your
self.
This is a tip straight from head
quarters. Kirby Page and his fol
lowers are in the employ of the
Soviet government! They are
BEDS! They are plotting to kill
u« all! And if this isn’t true, Col.
Stephen Park, head of the Nation
al Beserve Officers’ association,
doesn’t know what he is talking
about.
It is much easier to provo this
about the Colonel than it is to sub
stantiate his remarks.
Page, editor of The World To
morrow, urged “the youth of Amer
ica” to “refuse to fight in any
imperialistic war.” “Youth today,”
he said, “must decide whether it
will be cannon-fodder in such a war
nr join the army of Jesus Christ.”
To which Christian sentiment Col.
Part, “officer and a gontleman, by
net of congress,” replied in the Mil
waukee Journal with these enlight
ening words:
“The speakers who addressed the
conference . . . and others in this
country who are purveying similar
anti-militaristic doctrines are get
ting their salaries straight from
Moscow. They are going about the
country, attending gatherings of
young people and making those
gatherings the occasion for spread
ing propaganda which comes from
soviet Russia.”
There you have it. If you aigreo
with Page you may be contributing
to a gigantic plot which has as its
mud the destruction of the Amer
ican government. This is no time
for being a good Christian; we need
only be good Americans.
Col. Park’s explosion is probably!
unworthy of notice. The tune he |
plays is old and off-key. Hut just i
in the interest 'of accuracy 'we 1
should like to see the Y. M. C. A. |
adopt the suggestion advanced by j
the Nation:
“Peace organizations have been
far too generous in lotting any man 1
in uniform talk nonsense about '
them. Occasional persons take the
ravings of these military propagan
dists seriously, and let their black
lists prevail. The Reserve Officers’
Association, which represents the
Exhibit

own and the snow looks so crisp.’’
“What do ,ou think of those
apples and £ recti bananas over I
there?” another asks. "Those arc
peaches!” is the impatient retort.
Their attention is attracted else
■where to a painting called “Mist-v1
Morning.” The comment concern
ing it is to the effect that it is v< ry
soft and sweet. There is something
in it which appeals to one’s esthetic
liature, one admirer will explain.
Those who desire something with
more vibration and power will de
clare it too sweet.
There are no pictures which ac- j
tnally show an abundance of sun- ;
-shine in the collection. Perhaps one
which has more warmth than most
*€ them is a painting called “Crow ’s
Xest.” It shows the barren hills of
a little island of the coast of Maine
The island is an independent prin
cipality measuring about three mileit
square and populated by a peasant :
class of people. In the picture the I
bitter-enders of military propaganda,
might show a greater inclination to
ward accuracy if its chief were
compelled to pay in the form of
damages for libel the salaries of
a few Y. M. C. A. secretaries who
do not receive a subsidy from Mos
cow. ”
Thomas Jefferson on
The Collegiate Diet
(Columbia Spectator)
THOSE who for reasons philan
thopic or otherwise, take it on
themselves to found a new institu
tion of higher learning, will find
themselves faced with problems in
addition to those of providing men
tal nourishment to the prospective
alumni of the college. There exists
also the burning question of tho
proper victuals with which the stu
dents may keep body and mind to
gether.
In this dilemna, the prospective
founder may find of interest tho
opinions of Thomas Jefferson, in
regard to the menus to be served
at the university of which he was
the founder. There exists in Wid
ener hall at Harvard, a draft of a
letter from the great democrat to
a friend concerning menus at the
University of Virginia. Jefferson,
late in life, decided to establish a
university, and Virginia stands as
a monument to this ambition.
The complete draft of the letter
is as follows:
Monticono, June 4, 'iy.
Sir:
In answer to your request to be
informed of the particular style of
dieting of the students, which would
be approved by tho visitors of the
University, I can only sav that, the
University not being yet in action,
nor the Hotels or Boarding houses
in readiness which will bo at their
disposal, no stylo of dieting has
been agreed upon: but if I may
form a judgment from tho conver
sations wo havo had on the subject,
l think something like the follow
ing course will ineot their approba
tion.
For breakfast, wheat or corn
bread, at tho choice of each partic
ular, with butter, and milk, or Cof
feo-au-lait, at the choice of each.
No meat.
For dinner. A soup, a dish of
salt meat, as great a variety of
vegetables well cooked, as you
please. j
For supper, corn or wheat bread ]
at their choice, and milk or Coffee-1
!»u-Init, also at their choice, but no j
meat.
Their drink at. all times, water, a |
young stomach needs no stimulating :
drinks, and the habit of using them
being dangerous.
“Th. Jefferson.”
treacherous swamps are shown in |
which cattle are grazing. Sunlight j
plays on the thick, deep marsh :
weeds making a rather pleasing pic
ture. No one would surmise that the
reeds cover a dangerous and de
cidedly unhealthy swamp nor that
over its boggy lands cold, raw' pen- 1
et rating, damp winds blow that are j
hazardous for the inexperienced to
risk.
I lien there is the picture called j
the “Glimpse of the Atlantic.” It
is entirely different in its color- j
ings ;unl atmosphere from the rest I
of the collection. Its tones are very ,
dark but though it is quite somber
it is very pleasing. It has a lovely
peaceful atmosphere that appenls to
many of those who saunter by.
It is difficult to say which are
most pleasing. It is sufficient to |
say there is a groat number that are j ■
•apable of winning admiration from |
those who see them.
The exhibit will bo up until Jan
uary US at which time it will be
taken down and replaced by an ex- 1
hibition of the work i f Professor'
A. A. Schroff. »

Important Notice to Practice
Teachers
An important meeting of all stu
dents who have done, or will do,
practice teaching this year, will be
held Tuesday, January 18, at 4 p.
m. in room 4, of the Education
building. Professors Douglass and
Rainey will explain and answer
questions about the University ap
pointment bureau and how to get a
teaching position. Any others who
care to do so are invited to attend.
A physical ability test for which
freshmen and sophomores are eligi
ble will be held this morning at 10
o'clock in the men’s gym.

he concluded.
In welcoming the high school stu
dents to the University of Oregon,
I)r. Hall, said, '‘I shall not soon for
get the hospitality I received in the
high schools I visited recently
throughout the state. It is in the
same spirit that I welcome you.”
Biggs Cites Value of Conference
Hugh Biggs at the opening of the
session said, “It gives me particu
lar pleasure to extend a cordial wel
come from the A. S, U. O. We be
lieve that a meeting of this sovt
can be of immense value in help
ing to solve the problems with
which every high school is con
fronted. The lectures of the older
men and women who speak from
actual experience are also extreme
ly valuable,” he said. “Their pres
ence lends continuity and perpetuity
to the work, so that each year the
conference can receive the benefit
of the gleanings of former dele
gates. ’ ’
Several musical features were
presented during the course of the
program which added an extra bit
of collegiate atmosphere to the
gathering. The men’s glee club sang
a group of Oregon songs in honor
of the delegates. John Stark Evans
led the group.
W. L. Ferris, of the University
music school faculty, and Lawrence
Wagner, played two trumpet duets.

tank in Thursday’s effort, but yes
terday dropped down to 47. He is
safely entrenched in second place

The popularity of Lucky Strikes
among those who sing is because
these cigarettes never irritate the
throat, also because they give
greater enjoyment.

The Thrilling Voice of Scotti
This famous baritone recommends Lucky Strike
—Because “It’s Toasted” ^
ANTONIO SCOTTI, famous baritone of the Metropolitan
£~JL Opera Company of New York City, is very careful of
his voice and therefore recommends Lucky Strike.
Lucky Strikes have become the favorites of men whose
priceless voices fhrill their audiences, as they have with the
millions, because, first, they afford greater enjoyment and
second, they are certain not to irritate even the most sensi
tive throat.
The world’s finest Turkish and domestic tobaccos, properly
aged, perfectly blended, give Lucky Strikes their richer flavor.
But in addition, a costly extra process—toasting for 45
minutes—develops the hidden flavors of the choicest tobaccos
and at the same time removes all “bite” and harshness.
Smoke Lucky Strikes. They give added pleasure — you’ll
like them.
