New Hall Plan
Eastern Plan of Work
Nights in Big Firms
Boosted for Oregon
System Used Extensively
In Pittsburgh Concerns
^Recommendations that many largo
business anti industrial concerns of
g’ Oregon appoint “liaison officer*,”
who will aid employees in formulat
ing plans for evening study, was
made by Hr. Arnold Bennett Hall,
president of the University of Ore
gon, following a,.trip to the east and
middle west. The plan is now in
operation in Pittsburgh and other
eastern cities, and is proving of
great value, Dr. Hall said. Coopera
tion of the University of Oregon
bureau of business research, exten
sion division and correspondence de
partment is offered by the univer
sity head.
Used in Pittsburgh
“Forty-three large industrial con
cerns in Pittsburgh have these of
ficers, in each case members of their
own firms, who regularly spend
some of their time with the other
employees,” said Dr. Hall. “They
advise them on what courses to take
and often assist them in their
^ studies. They are especially useful
in pointing out-to the students
where their courses may be co-ordi
nated with their work.
“One company lias a central office
to record the educational work pur
sued by its employees and takes this
into account in considering promo
tions. Another firm attempts to
keep at least 12 per cent of its em
ployees interested in special study
courses. Another takes a poll an
nually to determine how many of
its men are studying.”
Is New Scheme
“While this is in marked contrast
to the attitude taken a few years
ago when concerns felt that men
should not spend their time on work
ether than their jobs, the advantages
are already apparent,” says Dr.
Hall. “Leaders declare that greater
efficiency is achieved, and also that
the men are much better satisfied to
remain permanently with a con
cern.”
The University of Oregon is ex
panding its extension division as
rapidly ns possible so that this new
demand may be adequately met, Dr.
Hall says. Evening courses are now
^ offered in a wide variety in many
important communities of the state
and others will be added as fast as
possible.

they were unwilling to issue an in

Dear Sirs:
I happen to be blest with a host of
very fine friends, mostly “highbrows”
— professors, scientists, etc. Gener
ally at Christmas time they show their
remembrance and all that with some
little gift—a box of cigars, fishing
tackle, a book—all that sort of thing.
Well, this Christmas many seemed
to centre on tobacco. Now, mark you,
these fellows have no communication
with each other. They live in widely
separated parts of the country, so it
was no “put-up” joke on me or any
thing like that. But here came seven
teen boxes of tobacco, and sixteen of
them the familiar blue “Edgeworth!”
The seventeenth was a very flossy
walnut, brass-trimmed box, but if I
know tobacco, the contents were
Edgeworth with a little perique in it.
Just coincidence, .perhaps, but a
queer one. Am not an habitual
smoker of Edgeworth, so they weren’t
catering to any especial taste of mine.
Looks like a consensus of opinion
among the “highbrows”—or quite a
batch of ’em—that Edgeworth is the
Stuff, the proper caper for a gift.
Sincerely yours,
F. A. Fitzpatrick

put. in tho expenditures nnd an in
crease in income.
“The increase in income had to
be based entirely upon circulation,
and even though the circulation
drive was the most successful ever
attempted, it left the Oregana with
a deficit of $1200. Contemplating
receiving $1000 from Kennell-El
lis, and filling tho requirements of
the executive council of a $500 mar
gin, it means we are required to cut
the book $700 in cost which wo ab
solutely insist cannot be done with
out impairing the quality, because
it has already been cut to the mini
mum.
“It further menas that the editor
and manager of the Oregana would
be forced to secrifico a year’s ef
fort for no remuneration whatso
ever, put out a year book of inferior
qitality, obligate the students! tjo
take what they supposed was going
to be a $5.00 book, and in addition
to face the possibility of another
financial disgrace.
Reluctant to Resign
“We sincerely believe that wo are
not taking unfair advantage of the
Oregana. We are extremely reluc
tant to again put out a burdensome
book, force the students to assume
the deficit, and put out a book dif
ferent from the one we promised.
“The Oregana is certainly in bet
ter condtion than it has ever been
before. The circulation 'is some
$2,000 better and through the efforts
of the staff, the KennoTl-Ellis fund
was discovered and applied to the
Oregana. All tho solutions have
come through the staff, and wo have
exhausted our supply. The burden
is again shifted to tho Oregana staff
and we are as helpless as we were
when we began.
“However, please do not think wo
are discouraging the publication of
the book. We are very willing to
aid and help the next editor and
manager in every possible way. We
very sincerely at the beginning wish
ed to put out an excellent Oregana,
make it appear on time, and make
it financially successful. .Wo can
not accomplish those three objec
tive's as the situation now exists.
Signed,
MARIAN STEN, Editor.
