Hand in Glove,
Plot Always in Pocket
AN unusually apt illustration of
the sort of hand-in-glovo rela
tions that are growing up between
the state and its principal center
of learning came out in yesterday’s
Emerald. First we read of the rec
ord-breaking attendance of business
delegates from all quarters of Ore
gon at the annual short-course given
by the University school of business
administration. Then, nearby, was
an account of the treat, enjoyed by
a group of architecture students j
when they spent last Saturday in
Portland viewing and discussing the
finest city architecture with masters
of the building art.
We can discover nowhere, in
either of these very different con
ventions, even a hint of the boot
strap-tugging and self-glorification
that nenrly always befuddle an un
initiated spectator. There was not
a breath of Bartonism even in the
campus affair, as far as we can de
termine. Both were feasts for the
intellectual curiosity of their mcm
bors, not self-love feasts familiar in
what Lowiw Mumford calls the
'‘jamborees” of servico and frater
nal bodies. A group of business
men merely brought their problems
to a scholarly forum; near-architects
saw theory graphically expressed in
stone and steel.
College walls sometimes havo been
constructed so high and thick that
their monastic inhabitants havo been
held prisoners unwittingly. Like
life-termers, the scholarly inmates
were terrorized at the onslaughts of
the battering ram of u suspicious
public opinion. And even today,
when confronted with the spectacle
of patrician learning hobnobbing in
the street with plebeians, hall
marked hoods are wont to wag
dolorously.
Wo are sure, however, that when
students have freer contact with the
social environment to which they
will soon succeed, stimulus to learn
begins to arise from within and scll'
motivated study, the only real edu
cation, results. Nor is there any
doubt in our mind that the clash of
scholarly theory with everyday prob
lems when the two meet, far from
tainting scholarships, serves as a
healthy purge for both academic
and practical. The tradition of sop
aration was engendered under very
different circumstances from those
of present-day America.
Wherever the balance does finally
lie in this policy of easy reciprocity
between practice and theory, it will
bo the index of democratic education
—be it blessing or curse. The two
convenient samples we have just
taken from the lot to illustrate our
ease show both phases of the pro
cess—affairs of the state as they
are influenced by tho University and
the teaching of tiio University as it
is supplemented by the state. So
hand is in glove, not just in the
state's pocket as it is over-emphati
cally portrayed.
Bits of This
And of That
In the neighborhood of two mil
lion persons in the United States
are unemployed, according to an
estimate made by the Department
of Labor. Students who have not
taken pains to tit themselves so as
to meet tho stiffened competition
which results from such a condition
are likely to experience hard sled
ding when they leavo the shelter of
the campus walls.
The Nicaraguan question and tho
protection of American foreign in
vestments seem to be favored topics
with the Oregon debate teams this
year. Tho subjects are ones which
lend themselves to interesting dis
cussions whenever both the affirma
tive and negative sides succeed in
talking about the same thing.
Skinless frankfurters have made
their appearance in the east, ac
cording to newspaper reports. To
anyone accustomed to tho old-fash
ioned hot dogs dressed in nifty
tights, the new-fangled creation
must look about as out of place as
a hairless dog in a cold country.
The first Dad’s Day held by the
University was a financial success
in a way not planned by its spon
sors. The surplus of $48.25 left
from the banquet expenses will no
doubt do real yeomen service as an
addition to the general student loan
fund. The fund might well serve
as a repository for any other sur
pluses from campus affairs.

rShady Place By The Old Mill Race9
Pleasant Spot To While Away Hours
Any day wit on the sun is hot ami
you dout ’ know wliat to do, got
yourself a oanoo and paddle up the
race. Nothing seems more delight*
ful than passing under tho willow
trees that line the banks of the race.
Kverything is so quiet and peaceful
ill the flickering shadows of tho
afternoon sunlight. Paddle over the
rippling waters when you approach
the dam. Htrokc on up tho race, and
pass under the numerous wooden
bridges. Life along this stream ap
pears at its best. So tranquil and
peaceful. Nothing seems hurried,
nothing artificial. Nature is itself.
At the portage, tie your oanoo to
a tree trunk along tho bank. Lay
back on your cushion and Listen to
the water’s murmuring ns it slowly
glides past the sloggv banks. Listen
t< the song of the robin ns he builds
himself a nest in a nearby tree.
Watch the white clouds through the
overhoad branches as they pass
under the fathomless, blue sky.
Time here passes quickly, and the
hours slip by unnoticed. Your wrist
watch tells you it is time to return.
Float back with the current. It
knows its own course. Always mur
muriug, gliding away to the cud.
Your destination is'reached before
i
you realize it. Vou have experienced
its peacefulness aud quietude. When
you return liomo you fool at peaco
with llio world. Nothing seems
tioublesome. The evening studies
are made easier, elearer, more under
standable.
Thus the results of an afternoon
on the race are apparent. Ho in
viting. They almost seem to say,
"Come again.”
Mis* Burgess’ Return
Expected This Week
Miss Julia Burgess, professor of
English, who attended the funeral
of her brother in New York, is ex
ported to return to the campus some
time this week, according to the
word received by l)r. C. V. Bover,
head of ttie English department.
Miss Burgess was delayed by an
attack of influenza. Walter Kraus
Kidd, graduate assistant of the En
glish department, has taken over
the enrollments and assignments of
Miss Burgess’ classes during her
ubs ueu.

SEERS NEARLY GO WAY OT
WORTHLESS HONORARIE8
The University "would have been
lots better off, fewer reputations
ruined, and all that if the Student
Council committee on “ousting
worthless honoraries” had followed
its first impulse and insisted that
tho Seven Seers go.
It took hours of pleading on our
part and a lot of ill-gotten pull, but
we finally came through with colors
flying. Our defenso was built
around the fact that there is no
honor among us in the first place
and that' it naturally follows that
there is nothing honorary about the
column.

EL WELL, Maine, March 28.—
(Special)—Herbert W. Jones, in
ventor of the saxophone, passed his
seventieth birthday under heavy po
lice guard at his home> here today,
I think that I shall nover find
A man as fickle as this kind;
These men who change their girls
each day
And always to each new one say,
“You are the first, the only one,
The sweotest creature 'neath the
sun.”
A college man whose only thought
Is for the next that’s to be
caught.
Whoso only motto seems to be
“My, how tho girls all fall for
me,”
I hope some day they’ll change
their time
And do away with hook and line:
’Twill nieer be for tho girls, I trust,
When u college man turns to just—
A MAN’!!
