California University Observes Traditions U. C. To A., Feb. 28.—P. I. I'.— j “Traditions of the University will be actively enforced this year,” said the Daily Bruin of February 13tli. Machinery to carry out the enforce j mont was provided, and offenders were to be called before the Tra ditions committee and tried. The hour of trial came, the mem bers of the committee assembled, and everything was prepared for handing down judgments on students who dared belittle the respected customs of their Alma Mater. The only thing lacking in the whole pro ceeding was that no offenders ap peared. Two explanations offered them selves. Perhaps there were no stu dents who violated University tra ditions. This explanation did not seem plausible and it was suggested that there were offenders but that they did not consider the summons tc appear in a serious light. If the second explanation is true, as Arthur Park,s, ’2!), chairman of the traditions committee, believes, the violators will be brought to justice through the efforts of a committee of “ways and means” which will bo formed to fulfill the purpose. Drama Tourney Judges Tentatively Selected Preparations for the second an nual high school drama tournament were advanced yesterday in a'meet ing in 110 Johnson hall, when the committeo in charge, headed by Miss Florence E.

Eugene, Oregon Does Friendship Really Count In Business? Quite a long time ago someone said, “there is no friendship in business." He couldn't have been thinking very hard when he said it because nothing was ever farther from the truth. The business of our store has been built up en tirely on friendship—the sincere kind that tries to give our customers just a little more than a square deal. The very future of this town depends on the friendship of the surrounding community, and we who serve in its stores should remember that every discourteous and selfish act on our part hurts our own future; every kind and thoughtful act is just another stone to build up mutual prosperity. Let’s make 1928 a big year for community de- . yelopment. yVe can do it if we’ll all pull together I | uals and their method of guiding j the human destiny. I i “Hands Up,” by Capini Yeqnin, is not a book on highway robbery, j b'H has been -written to afford pleas ure to those, yyho are interested in fortune telling by palmistry. Secrets can no longer be hid, for | by the diagrams and explanations in this little red book, it is possible for anyone to pead his own and his friend's life history. These two books are on the rent 1 shelf at the library, i The books which have been taken off the rent shelf and put into geo i oral circulation are: “Death Chines to the Archbishop,” Willa Gather; j “Stuff and Nonsense,” Do la Mare; “Red Sky at' Morning,” Kennedy; “Promised Land,” Ladislas Rey mont; “Black Horse,” Boris Savin koff; “Conflicts,” Stefan Zweig; ' “To Begin With,” Raymond Pearl; “Each in His Own Way”, Pirarid . olio; “Teodora the Sage,” Lucatelli; “The Gateway to Life,” Thiess.
