Gold to Buy the Bricks S'l I l>KXT union at Oregon would be a lino thing. 10very one. is agreed to that. No member oi a club or honorary would look with disfavor upon now and adoqiiato meeting rooms; no thoiightful slndont would wish to oondomn a project which promised proper auditorium space for lectures and re citals; no lover ol student social gatherings' wonld veto a plan for a ballroom on the campus; in short. no student of the I'niver sily ol Oregon would disapprove of a stu dent union building. Hut favorable campus opinion lias never eoiisfrueted a building and optimistic words have never laid a corner stone. WlrM't is ae tually needed as the foundation of a sue- ! ecsslul campaign to secure a student activity center is some assurance that there will be available some funds for the scheme- some ! method by which the dream of a student union can he dollied with practicability. 1 lie needed wavs and means for tin- eon struclion of a student union seem evident Irom the figures released yestenlav hv -I.

A Message Home It'll days I lie students of the Iniversitv of Oregon will pM) ;l\vay tln-ir Itooks anil ' noiioils for tlii'rr days. In ten days the usual academic atmosphere of the campus will give "ay to a moving picture conception of col ll'ge life.

To see massive squadrons of clouds, marching majestically across the sky over the fragrant, brilliant earth is something that defies analysis, logic or philosophy. The ! feeling of exhultation that comes from | watching the mild contortions of a oapri i cions and richly endowed nature, if not ab sorbed and remembered, are ghosts that : haunt the developed and precise mind. Only the stupid are completely oblivious to I beauty. And so when, and if classes are ignored and studies east into a cluttered corner in j favor of space and freedom and joy. there | should be re flee not on what is left be hind but what is In ore -the show of shows as interpreted on the rich settings of nature 's stage. One ol the most convincing arguments against the student activity fee referendum is the tael that the petition pushers seem to he having diliieulty in getting any signers I tom among those persons who really are in ii position to know “what il is all about/’ When street corner stragglers and beer par lor hangers-on have to he solicited in order to obtain enough signers, there must he something radically wrong with the mea sure.

In the early spring of 1917 a German corporal and a British lieutenant lay directly opposite one another in trenches on the petrified battlefield of Ypres. Eighteen years later corporal and lieuten ant faced each other across diplomatic tables in Berlin: Hitler, dictator of 60,000,000 Germans, and Captain Anthony Eden, British lord privy j seal. Throwing over the treaty of Versailles with a proclamation, Hitler had ordered military con scription and demanded economic union with Austria, inclusion in the reich of German-speak- ; ing Czechoslovakia, an air force equal to Britain and France, an army to cope with Russia’s and | a navy of 400.000 tons. Such was the ultimatum presented to Sir ! John Simon, barrister and British foreign secre- ! tary, and his aide the Rt. Hon. Robert Anthony Eden. They had flown from London to Berlin | in an attempt to pacify the leader of a nation, conscious of its re-awakened powers arid its pride smarting under fifteen years of humiliation, j European peace and disarmament had ended in a pitiful exposee of armed hatred and bitterness, and what Europe had feared since the treaty was a reality. Sir John's (,onijtonion That the scholarly 'Sir John Simon should be accompanied by Eden was no surprise to diplo mats who have spent the past few years at Geneva. At the league he was looked upon as the spokesman for Great Britain, because of Sir John's growing skepticism toward the league and disarmament. As lord privy seal in trie foreign office, he is the opposite of his superior in background, tal ents and environment. Sir John was already a man of some years when the world war broke J upon Europe, and events since have made his I lawyer's logic tire more penetrating and concise, his mind more complex and sophisticated, but left his diplomacy as blunt as ever. Eden's generation is (ire "lost generation" of the war. By 191b his eldest brother had been killed in action: his second, the present baronet and eighth in line, was a prisoner: he, himself, was just leaving’ Eton: and the fourth, a child almost, was to he killed :;t sea. Front Eton, where he had been a prize linguist, he joined the King’s j Royal Rifle corps in 1915 ,\t nineteen he was I the youngest adjutant irr the British army and the youngest brigade major before he was twenty-one. M or I'roni llu< I' rritrhrs Moiv fortunate than most of his fellows at Kton, tin' Ypres salient, the graveyard of youth, S''ive him a Military Cr< ss. Thus while men now neat' three score and ten, who watched the un rolling' ol the world war from business or govorn mcnt offices, are stolidly cynical about disarma ment and peace by way of Geneva, Kden sees the league as the hist and only straw. Seventeen years old when the war began and ntly thirty eight now. he has experienced in action the dis illusionment and horror of tiie greatest of modem wtus. and Geneva to him is more than the dream ol a tired, haggard, broken Woodrow Wilson. Returning from the war he went to Christ \ Church. Oxford, studied the Near Cast, tie became expert in its languages, traveled through its countries in vacations and wrote a delightful hook, "Places in the Sun." about his journeys. In 10 if if, when he came down from Oxford, he was defeated in his home constituency. Out ham, by llu' socialist candidate.

All which has been brought back to my mind, like a dream of some far Elysium, by our last Friday's game when we tried out our new diamond under the eaves of the Igloo, and by sundry references which I have run down in our lo cal weeklies of that distant day.

Tuesdays and Thursdays—embryology. I spend three mornings a week on bio-chemistry, three on physiology 'lab' and lectures. And 1 have to face an exam in about one subject per week. I relieve the strain by smoking Camels. 1 prefer Camels, because when I’m feeling tired or distracted they unlock my supply of energy —soon refresh me. Camels are extremely mild. Not just mild-tasting, but »ea!ly mild. They never tire my taste or get on my nerves. Camels taste so good ’I'd w alk a mile for a Camel!”’ SOCIAL LEADER. "The min ute I begin to feel tired, I stop and smoke a Camel,” says Mrs. Ludlow Whitaker Stevens, of New York. "Fatigue disap pears. It’s remarkable the way Camels renew your energy." STAR PITCHER. "I like Camels, and I've found that after a hard game a Camel helps me to get back my energy,” says Carl Hubbell. star pitcher of the N. Y. Giants. "Camels are so mild they never rutile my nerves."
