Surely, this is an annual event whieh brings honor to the university. It is a conven tion of men who are perhaps tlio closest to the economic, conditions of their own sections of the state. It is not the convention alone that is significant, but the 'men who attend. These editors are the men who promote Oregon, and who rep resent and present the ideas whieh are current in the state. In the sessions of the convention the ideas of western Oregon will mingle with the ideas of eastern Oregon and each section will be benefited. The success of policies adopted at. last year’s meeting, and the out lines of the policies for the coming year will be discussed. Because the people of the community are in fluenced by what they read, it is necessary that capable men direct the policies of newspapers. The abilities of the Oregon slate editors are unquestionable. Few states have jis high a standard of journalism as this state. Financially it is equal to the best. It is stable, dependable and progressive in all its activities. The editors are rep resentatives of advancement and the communities cannot do without them. Let us welcome them.—JOB I’KJN'KY. TO THE WOMEN’S JjEAltUE Am open letter lo tlio AVomon’s longue: I wish tn take this oppor tunity of expressing my groat jov in the stand that you dour girls havo taken in regal’d to the hotter and higher morals you aspire to obtain in renounoing smoking and eard playing in piddle. Later I trust that you will bo so uplifted you will banish this fad oven in private. Ninee coming to 1'! u go lie over ten years ago I have been greatly in terested in our university and the students and, while I have heard some discouraging things, 1 have not been quick to condemn. Now that you have taken this step in the right direction I wish to extend to you mv hearty congratulations. MARV II. .1KW UTT. Prussian King Gives Mine. MeGrew Order for Sinking (Continued from Vaye One) years. In IP07 1 went to Breslau, Germany, where I stayed for six years at the municipal opera house. “While I was there I had one of the most unusual experiences of nil my hectic life. One day the direc tor railed me to liis office ami asked inn to tako “Carmen" with me on my summer vacation and prepare it for the uext fall. The part was not suited to uiy voice and 1 was not too eag"r to take the part, but 1 agreed to loam it over the summer. "The next fall will'll 1 returned, 1 found that (lie woman who had previously sung the part still waul ed it, so I dropped the matter. Just one year later, 1 returned home to find that the director had been trying lo find me and wanted me to take the part at the opening opera the next night. 1 did not wish to endanger my reputation by doing so, but finally I acquiesced and went on the stage the following evening. I did not ruin mv musical reputation, but the experience was one of ilu most hair-raising in my whole experience. ” Madame McGrow reluted how she happened to become u music teacher, “lu tlio summer uf 1913; 1 came back to America to visit my parents in Colorado. My mother died and I stayed to help my father recon struct his home. At the outbreak of the war, T found myself ma rooned ill America. My father did not want me to try to cross the ocean at that time. I have re mained in America ever since. This meant the breaking up of my career and through it I have become a teacher of singing instead of a singer. Instead of singing grand opera myself, I am endeavoring to teach these young people what opera means.” Tonight Madame McGrow’s stu dents will give operatic productions of “La Bolienio” and “Carmen.” “I often think, when T am directing my opera class,” she says, “of the time when I sang Carmen in Bres lau without having rehearsed it for a year.” New State Librariun Is University Graduate Virginia Cleaver Bacon, appoint ed this week to the position of state librarian to succeed Cornelia Mar vin Pierce, who resigned, graduated from the University of Oregon in 1904, according to Mabel JO. Mc Clain, circulation librarian of the university library. Besides receiv ing lit r A. B. here and being elected to Phi Beta Kappa, Mrs. Bacon was a graduate assistant in 1904 05, engaged in extension work with the University of Chicago in 1910, and received her M. A. degree from American university, Washington, D. C., 19-4. Mrs. Bacon is a sister of Kay Cleaver Wtrahan, whose prize mys tery book, “footprints,” is receiv ing much attention in publishing and reading circles. Deer Edditer, I think that you shood have ought to kep on with your eddi torials. I always red them right after I red the mast head with all those names up thar. A. R. T. # * * Another correspondent to this column says, “now that the Emer ald is to have no more editorials, the editor will be able to appoint a few more associates without hav ing conscience pangs.” Another adds that ,“If Duck Soup would only go next, the Emerald could soon he made into a real paper. SOME OF THE CO-EDS MUST HAVE A LOT OF CHEEK. WE SEE THEM BORROWING FACE POWDER ALL THE TIME. THOSE co-eds who PLEAD with their profs FOR high grades and COO that they’re “Just POOR working girls” ARE probably nearer RIGHT than they THINK. Their work probably IS poor! * # » AL & LIT ARE STILL WITH OUT A DATE FOR THE SENIOR BALL. You would have to take BOTH of them, but you might get special rates.

My First Job Professors Relate Hou> First Money Earned By picking up pins, washing dishes, and gathering vegetables, Dr. Ethel I. Sanborn of the botany department earned her first money. “Like a child,” she says, “I would earn a few cents in various ways. I remember that my mother used to pay me for picking pins off the floor so my little brother would not find and swallow them. I didn’t have any particular jobs like boys usually do. “My father was a probate judge and abstractor in North Dakota, and, when I was older, I worked in his office. I was paid 10 cents every time I made an entry in his book.” The book in which the entries were made was, according to Dr. Sanborn, about the size of the top of an office desk. An entry filled one line across the page. “Some of the abstracts could be written off quite quickly,” she says, “but oth ers took a long time. They wero copied from notations my father made on a card. T was quite proud of the first #25 that I made from this work.” Dr. Sanborn does not think that the women professors on the campus will be able to equal the men when relating first job experiences. “I don’t believe women have so many miscellaneous jobs to start them on their way to fame as do men,” she says. McDONALD — “The Shopworn Angel,” starring Nancy Carrol and Cary Cooper. Also “Beau Brum mel” and “Oswald,” two Vitaphone yets.

Beck, who is an instructor in the school of music, is an author ity on the music of the south seas, having spent some time among the islands of the south Pacific. She is also a member of the Fijian his toric a 1 society, anil lias contributed several articles to the magazine which is published by this organi zation. | -— i Interest in Press Conference Grows With Each Meeting, (Continued from Fugc One) very thorough acquaintance among j a large proportion of Oregon edi tors through contacts made from former years and through daily and ! weekly readings of each others’I papers. a r,u; i,. ii... and tlie advantages to newspaper j men of tlie press conference, it ! would be well to quote Dean Col-1 lins, of the Portland Telegram, who said in a paper before the ninth Oregon newspaper eonferenee: “It gives thorn perhaps—or should give them—a chance to forget the quan tity of false beacons that they have been required by circumstance and necessity and the pressure of hum- j an stupidity, to hang up before I their fellow men. It gives them a chance, perhaps, to forget the quail-1 tities of bunk that they have been obliged, under the late pressure of j propaganda influclnjees, to unload j upon tlie public.” One man, at least, has attended I every consecutive conference since I they began in 11)11). Professor George Turnbull, of the school of journalism, proudly admits that lie holds this commendable record. Ill speaking about the actual worth of the sessions, Professor Turnbull said, “There’s no question as to their mutual value, both to the men who attend aud to the Uni versity of Oregon. It does them good to get together and get others’ viewpoints. It’s beneficial to them to get in touch with the general university atmosphere and meet leaders in social, political and scientific thought.” Dean Eric W, Allen, of the school of journalism, says, “In my judg ment this conference is invaluable, not only to the school of journalism i and its students but to the press of j the state itself. I feel safe in this opinion because many editors have emphasized this point from time to time. The papers and discussions : are of a very high grade and are j always published. When published ' they compare favorably with any j similar papers when read any- i where.” Professor E. II. Ford, associate professor of journalism and a prac tical worker in trade publications! apd the newspaper field, said, “It} seems to me that this is the way in which the school of journalism can function to the best extent. It serves as a sort of rallying point for editors of the state and gives them an opportunity to make valu able anti beneficial contacts and to get new viewpoints.” Granting the practical value and worth of the conference which is now in session it will be supposed that another successful get-to gether has begun. /Vo Boxer Found to Fill Knox’s Place in Meet No decision has yet been reached as to the boxer who will fill the place of Robert Knox in the Pacific A.
