Artistry Discovered
In Campus Garb
\ T least our aspect of American
colleges appears to linger in
eradicably in the memory of Al.
•lenn-Mnrie Carre, erstwhile profes
sor of romance languages in Stan-j
ford’s summer session. After I’m- !
lessor Carre’s iliji into the Univer-j
silv life of the const, he returned
to his University of Lyons, France, !
and there obeyed the Continental i
tradition of immortalizing his im-i
presxinns of America. He calls his
book “Images.” And therein lie!
describes a figure known to every
western student.
. . . There is a striking
contrast between the smart dress of ;
the women and the affected and free
and easy negligee of the 'younig
men. Their linlieminnixm does not
express itself in long hair
but in a very scanty costume,
trousers shaped like the feet of an
elephant, of undyed or grey-striped ;
corduroy, spotted with gasoline or
grease . . . falling too low over
huge sporl shows, a shirt with a
metal buckle, and that is all.”
M. Carre’s interpretation shows
the tenacity of the maxim of his
spiritual ancestors, the Romans,
who said—in different words—“art
is art concealed.” We had never
previously suspected the gasoline
and grease spots of being integral
And the und.ved hue of the cords
was before only a tribute to the of- ’
liciency of laundry machinery and!
an uncertain indication of the time
yet to elapse before a raspy yellow
pair must succeed them.
We have put down the “shirt with
a metal buckle” as a technical er
ror. There is every practical rea
son to retain our present views con
cerning; the relations of buckles to
campus garb, and wo shall continue
to feature them only as belt items
until Stanford confirms the authen
ticity of the innovation.
There’s no small measure of tri
umph in sartorially impressing a
frenchman. It is mugiest iouablv a
higher achievement than breaking
the bank at Monte Carlo. The palm
is awarded to Stanford without a
murmur. We insist., however, that
had M. Carre ever glimpsed the
kaleidoscope of the Oregon campus
between classes during a shower,
his image at tin* (Stanford rough
would have been overlaid with an '
impression the vividness of which '
would have instantly erased the
summer scene.

The Health Service
And Its Services
T\ this-day of mu It i 1 u>li nous “wisc
cracks” delivered by “wise
crnrkors” whose wisdom is often
to be doubted, lie who so much ns
dares to resurrect, an old-time pro
verb is usually in danger of being
branded ns n fossilized platitudi
narian. The old payings, however,
still retain wisdom mid truth to an
astonishing; degree.
for instance, can anyone doubt the
truth of “A stitch in time saves
nine”; a saying venerable with age?
The University health service is
an institution which all students
know to evisl as a means to aid them
in retaining the degree of health
necessary to Ijie successful pursuit
of their studies. The health serv
ice operates a small infirmary to
care for its efforts to cure those
students who have become ill from
one cause or another and need spe
cial attention.
The real aim of the health serv
ice, however, is to prevent disease;
to stamp it out, if possible, before
it has a chance to get a good start.
Not only, do such measures result in
less inconvenience to the students,
but the limited facilities for the,
care of bed patients make it almost
imperative that such a course be
followed.
The proportion of Oregon students
who have realized the wisdom of
visiting; the dispensary for diagnosis
and treatment at the tirst signs of!
a threatening illness is iprite furor
able when compared ‘with \condU j
turns on other college campuses
throughout the country where the)
doctrine of prevention has not !
received such strong emphasis. The i
record can still bear improvement,
says Dr. Fred \. Miller, head of the i
health service, as a large proper- j
tion*of the cases which need lies- 1
Pitil 1 care are those which might j
hare been prevented if the patient
had presented himself for attention j
a day or two earlier.
The health service was organized
that it might be of use in better!
combating the evils of crowded |
living conditions through the use
of prevention and cure. It is sin
dent supported because it is intend
ed to contribute to student physical,,
welfare. To consult the doctors
when I here appears to be something
wrong with the physical being not
only results in the probable climimi
lion of the trouble, but is an act
of consideration toward ones friends,
"'ho might otherwise be inconven
ienced. — \y (■_

EUGENE, Ore., Jan. 29.— (Spe

pneumonia which followed the Alpha

An ielectric refrigerator in t)ie
center of the floor kept pipes
around the room covered with frost

Ami the alligntors call;

’Twas snowing buttercups.
A 'Squirrel was smoking cigarettes,
Alert for nuts to fall;

I answered to its call.

VICE CONDITION’S
BAD IN EUGENE
An Emerald reporter, assigned to
study the exact extent of vice in
the slums of Eugene, while prowl
ing around the streets at the un
heard of hour of 1 a. m., Saturday
morning, was horrified to discover
a piano going full force in the Wil
lamette street Y. M. C. A.
And not a policeman ip sight.
Think of it, boys and girls! It is
almost too much to believe—such !
conditions existing right here ijn
our own city. Is it really safe to
venture out after dark?
