9 Still Remembered Amid Oregon’s "School days, school days, good old golden rule days! There’s readin’ an’ writin’ an’ ’rithmetic”— And among the things taught to the tune of the hickory stick to the pioneer children ot forty years ago was a certain poem grac ing grammar school readers as an example of fine composition, as well as a contribution to the history of Oregon. It was part of the northwest’s literature, was this poem and not a child within 100 miles of the state but who know it ‘‘by heart” and recited it dramatically on occasion, when the superintendent came to visit school, or when Motner s sewing circle wanted entertain ment. But years passed—and with them the poem disappeared from the readers. It disappeared from pop ularity, except for those who stiil cherished the lines in their mem ories, and who, for auld lang syne's sake, taught the poem to their children. But, though times have changed, the poem is still as valuable as ever. And it might be worth-while, at this time, to call to mind a piece of art which a half-century ago con tributed so much to Oregon liter ature. Beautiful Willamette By Sam L. Simpson From the Cascades' frozen gorges, Leaping like a child at play, [Winding, widening through the val ley, Bright Willamette glides away; Onward ever, Lovely river, Softly calling to the sea; Time, that scars us, Maims and mars us. Leaves no track or trench on thee. 2 Spring's green witchery is weav ing Braid and border for thy side; Grace forever haunts thy journey, Beauty dimples on thy tide; Through the purple gates of morn ing Now thy roseate ripples dance Golden then, when day, departing, On thy waters trails his lance. Waltzing, flashing, Tinkling, splashing, Limpid, volatile and free— Always hurried to be buried In the bitter, moon-mad sea. 3 In thy crystal waters inverted Swings a picture of the sky, Like those wavering hopes ot' Aidenn, Dimly in our dreams that lie; Clouded often, drowned in tur moil, Faint and lovely, far away— Wreathing sunshine on the mor row, Breathing fragrance round to day.

ORIENTAL ART SHOP Here and ponder, Hither poetry would dream; Life's old questions, Sad suggestions, Whence and whither? throng thy stream. On the roaring waste of ocean Shall they scattered waves be tossed. 'Mid the surge’s rhythmic thunder Shall thy silver tongues be lost. O! thy glimmering rush of glad ness Mocks this turbid life of mine! Racing to the wild Forever Down the sloping paths of Time. Onward ever, Lovely River, Softly calling to the sea; Time, that scars us, Maims and mars us, Leaves no track or trench on thee. YWCA Leader What can a girl do after grad uation ? “I know of no subject more de pressing,” Miss Helen Morton, Y. W. C. A. national executive secre tary, said Wednesday in her second talk sponsored by the vocations study group. “For in all likelihood, the majority of women who grad uate from college this June will join the other 900,000 college grad uates who will be unemployed." In her address, Miss Morton sug gested first, to get more training in a school accredited in the pro fession a woman wishes to follow. This is a competitive age, and the one who will get the job when it comes is the person who has the best training. If it is geographi cally impossible for a woman to attend the school of her choice, then she should change her career to one for which further training may be obtained. The second suggestion was to keep the regime of an employed persoij,, Making oneself useful to the community in some way, being 4 i l PLANA HOUSE PARTY AT WILLAMETTE PARK 30 Couples $10.00 FRIDAY NIGHT COLLEGE NIGHT 50c PER COUPLE with tlic TEN COMMANDERS Eugene's Finest Music GALS!

A third thing an unemployed col lege graduate can do is to miss no opportunity to widen contacts. A casual conversation with a chance acquaintance has led to a good job for many girls, Miss Morton added. Dress well and maintain that “starched dimity’’ look is the fourth thing an unemployed col lege graduate can do. “By that I do not mean that she should dress expensively,” Miss Morton ex plained, “but that she should keep things she does have dainty and neat.” The jobless college graduate who does these things will, the speaker felt, eventually find a job, if she is willing to take whatever is of fered her. Miss Morton, national executive secretary of the student YWCA is making a tour of 15 campuses in order to become more familiar with what is being done by that organ ization in all parts of the country.

Excellent taste in color and style is found in the midshipman blue, hand-knitted, two piece wool suit of Frances Helfrich, ex Theta prexy. The outfit is completed with smart brown buttons. Roberta Pickard, Sigma Kappa, wears a becoming dark maroon, two piece knit suit with gold but tons on either shoulder. Added at tractions are the full sleeves and sash-like belt. Kathryn Paskquill, officially Al pha Phi, but recently pledged to Phi Delta Theta, is very charming in a light blue, two piece knit suit, >vith short puff sleeves. It is set off with brown buttons, and a brown and tan plaid scarf. * * * Fashion decrees that girls will still be true to the navy or rather the sailor collars—very appropriate and useful in decking out our fair campus heroines to battle the drenching Oregon mists so preva lent of late.

The Russian trend is predominat ing this season! Russian tunics high-collared, and gayly embroid ery banded are very popular in silk crepes or satins. These outfits are very effective with well fit ting coats and cossack hats to match. Ann Hutchinson, known as “Red” to the law school, is very attractive in one of the latest spring styles—a silk afternoon frock with shades of blue print on a white background, slit skirt, full sleeves, and soft neckline. A navy biue straw sailor hat and navy blue shoes complete the ensemble. * * * Lacing is an effective alterna tive for anyone tired of buttons. And it doesn’t require buttonholes, for the cord slips through little sewed-on rings of a contrasting col or with the dress.

Aileen Hall, blonde Delta Gam ma, wore a very smartly tailored turquoise blue, silk crepe frock at Willamette Park last week-end. Three Forme!
