patterns always precede the mel
odic, for everyone is primarily a
“foot listener.” All folk music is
based on rythm and was composed
originally to ease manual labour.
After rythm comes melody, then
harmony, and other technical pat
terns of the composers. He gave
his definition of music as the organ
ization of sound toward beauty, in
other words, sound must be organ
ized by rythm, melody, etc., to be
beautiful. Hr. Spaeth believes that
a sense of some kind of music comes
to everyone instinctively.
Shows Sentiment of ’90’s
The latter part of his lecture was
based on his book, “Head ’em and
Weep,” and he gave some of the old
sentimental songs of “the gay
’90’s.” Everything of this period
was written in waltz time, he point
ed out, for that was considered the
only way to express sentiment.
And a high degree of senti
ment was expressed according to
the sections which he presented,
.“The Little Lost Child” and “My
Mother Was a Lady” or “If Jack
Were Only Here.” This period of
sentimentalism began with a series
of patriotic and political songs,fol
lowed by the cult of the neglected
child, which became very popular,
and then the circus song cult.
For his first encore, which was
impossible for him to escape,
he gave the two parodies on this
sentimentalism, written by Charlie
Case, who was the first man to ob
ject publicly to its popularity. They
told the stories of the boy and the
girl coming to the city from the
country, with original presentations
of the usual sob-story. His second
equally enthusiastic encore evoked
two songs which he has given
over the radio as goodnight songs
for children, and furthered Dr.
Spaeth’s reputation as a humorist
along any line.
Withdrawal Cards Must
Be Filed Before Friday
Only three days remain in which
students may withdraw from the
University by merely filing a card
of withdrawal. After Friday, May
13, it will be necessary to present a
petition at the registrar’s office in
order to obtain the grade of “W”
in case of withdrawal from all
courses.
Withdrawals from courses to re
duce the number of hours carried
are permitted until the period of
final examinations as long as the
total number of hours carried does
not amount to less than twelve.

Northwestern Oratorical
Contest Last Meet
Of This Year
rr'HE last oratorical meet of the
year will take place in the mu
sic auditorium tonight at 8:00, with
the University of Oregon and the
University of Idaho as contestants.
Jack Hempstead will represent Ore
gon against H. O. Wunderlich, from
Idaho.
“The Tide of Crime” is the title
of Hempstead’s oration, and Wun
derlick will speak on “The War of
1919.” Tonight’s contest, the North
west Oratorical Contest, was for
merly known as the E. E. Blaine
Northwest Oratorical Contest. Mr.
Blaine is no longer offering his
usual prize, and a silver loving cup,
to he purchased by the two enter
ing schools, will be awarded the
winner.
The universities of Washington,
Idaho and Oregon are the original
entrants in the oratorical meet, but
the University of Washington has
dropped out, makinjg the annual
contest a dual one.
Since the first year of Oregon’s
entrance in the contest, in 1908,
representatives of the university
have participated twelve times,
winning first place nine times out
of the twelve. Last year Ralph
Bailey, now a first year law student,
took first place with his oration,
“Heroes in the Battle of Life.”
The year before, Benoit McCroskey
won the contest.
Judges of the meet will be Rev
erend Duncan Cameron, of Cottage
Grove, Doctor Hall, coach of oratory
and debate at Willamette Univer
sity, and Professor Taylor, coach of
oratory and debate at Albany Col
lege.
A musical program in addition to
the two orations has been planned;
Edward Best will play two violin
solos and Prank Roehr, tenor, will
sing several vocal solos.

In 1926-27 Makers of Orange-Crush Use
Juice from 14,000,000 Pounds
of Fresh Ripe Oranges!
More than 14,000,000 pounds of
fresh, ripe oranges will be used this
season to obtain the juice required
by the Orange-Crush Company In
making the delicious beverage that
bears its name.
The high content of orange-juice
in Orange-Crush concentrate (from
which the finished drink is made)
marks the outstanding difference
between this delightfully refreshing
drink and the many cheapened sub
stitutes which derive their flavor en
tirely from imitation extracts and
contain no orange-juice whatever.
In making Orange-Crush, the
juice of luscious oranges is blended
with the delicate flavor of their peel,
the zestful tang <ff the fruit acid
found in oranges, lemons and limes,
a pure food color such as Is used

Baby Show, where 10,000
children were given a

There is so great a dif

to ask for it by name and

Dietrich, America's peerless custom designer, has
styled it with the sophisticated Parisian manner for
America’s youth. Trim as a silk glove, yet at no sacrifice
of roominess . . . two in the commodious lopnge scat

Youthful in its eager performance too. Rides any
