CORVALLIS AND THE STATE
The article from the Newberg
Graphic, published in this issue,
points a moral very clearly.
That editor voices the senti
ment of the people when he says
the taxpayers expect the 0. A.
C. student body to be surround
ed with all the inspiration there
may be in perfect s orderliness,
cleanliness and civic beauty
The DeoDle who Day taxes to
support 6. A. C. expect the col
lege to turn out boys and girls
hlled with ideas, ideals gained
not alone from books. They ex
Beet that example about them
.will turn them back to the farm,
town and city, with a desire for
better surroundings, a desire for
farms kept in perfect trim, de
void of weeds, underbrush, and
With good fences, a spot of well
kept lawn about the farm house
more comforts and conveniences
town holies partaking of the or
derliness, of the city, a love for
flowers, and a pride in the home
a desire to make the farm, the
town and the city more attract
able, more worth while morally
and in civic beauty. A love o:
the beautiful necessarily creates
a love for the moral and exam
pie has the advantage of precept
While the people expect 0. A.
C. to offer inspiration, they also
consider that Corvallis has been
given the 0. A. C. as a matter
of trust They may reasonably
expect (and that they do expect
it is attested by the Graphic
that Corvallis shall join the cd
lege in this effort to inspire the
student. Corvallis has no moral
right to expect the state to give
UDerally and get no response
from the city to which it has in
trusted its greatest school. The
state has a right to expect Cor
vallis to be an example to the
.student body of O. A. C. The
boy from Vale should see here
that which will make him dis

the weeds from the street, to
paint the home, and to urge
upon Vale officials the necessity
of improvement in a hundred
ways. The boy and girl from
Newberg should go back there
filled with praise for Corvallis
which has become their ideal as
town in which to live, and they
should be enabled to tell their
friends and neighbors of the real
beauty that is here. Students
here should not see aught that
is not an improvement over what
he farm, the home town or the
small city has to offer. When
they see old ramshackle wood
sheds and barns on the streets
here, they get no inspiration to
remove such eyesores irom ine
front yards of their own property
at home; when they see paint
less houses, weedgrown streets,
;errible sidewalks here, they nec
essarily feel that such things are
all right at home; when they see
the pickets off the fence, gar
dens illy kept, boards and refuse
on alley and street, they gain no
inspiration for betterment, and
when they board here in ram
shackle houses with no conveni
ences they are not inspired to
want anything better at home.
Corvallis has a responsibility,
and the state should hold Cor
vallis responsible. For years
Corvallis has neglected to meet
this responsibility, and it would
seem to have been justice it m
years past the state had refused
to appropriate in any liberal way
for the maintainence of the col-
ege until Corvallis should have
done the proper thing. This
city has been content to take
from the state, and has insisted
on giving little back. Corvallis
is now wakingf rom her lethargy
and she will have to go far in
order to make up for lost time.
Corvallis can and should be the
most beautiful college town in
America, and Corvallis owes to it
self, the state, the boys and
girls entrusted to us, to be noth
ing less than the greatest it can
be. Don't let anyone get it into
his head that Corvallis is going
too fast, or too heavy.or is likely
to go too far.

A special dispatch from
Skagen tells of an inter
view with Dr. Cook while the
Hans Egede was there Friday.
The correspondent - says that
Cook looks the picture of health
and states that Dr. Cook briefly
described his journey to him.
Regarding his discovery, Dr.
Cook said:
"Then came Agril 21. That
was the great day. We looked
for the sun. As soon as we got
it, I made several observations.
Great joy overcame us. We
were only 16 miles from the de
sired spot. I said to myself,
'Bully, bully for Frederick,', and
then went on.
"The last stretch was the
easiest I ever made in my life,
although I still had to make two
observations and the ice was
very broken here, but my spirits
were nign ana i snouted iiKe a
boy. The Eskimos looked at
one another, surprised at my
gaiety. They did not share my
joy. I felt that I ought to be
there. I made my last observa
tion and found that I was stand
ing on the pole. I planted the
Stars and Stripes in the ice field
and my heart grew warm when I
saw it wave in the wind."
"How does the north pole
look?" he was asked.
t "Well," said Cook, smiling,
'"It amounts to the size of a 25
cent piece. There is nothing to
see but ice, ice; no water, only
ice.
"I stopped two days at the
pole, and I assure you that it
was not easy to say goodby to
the spot.
"As I was sitting at the pole,
I could not help smiling at the

This is really the only spot on
grounds that shows, even at this
time (during the summer months
when no real effort is made to
keep the external surroundings
in shape) any untidiness. Dur
ing the college year 0. A. C.'s
grounds are in perfect condition,
and with the single exception of
Waldo Hall nothing is lacking
even at this stage of the game,
However, very comprehensive
plans for even greater beautifica-
tion ot the college grounds are
under way, Mr. Olmstead, the
New York artist who planned the
Seattle fair landscape scheme,
having been here and made sug
gestions. These will be carried out
! as far -as possible. Waldo Hall is

at this time largely because
the Armory, the largest building
of its kind in the state, is now be
ing erected near it, and for the
reason that this necessitates the

front of Waldo and the making
of a fine lawn entirely about the

the great Central building and
the greenhouses, to be built just

'ance of Waldo at the present
time is of no consequence. The

C. was not caustic or captious in
any sense and the G.-T. believes
he will be glad to learn and pub

ception of those spots whereon
buildings are being erected, stu-
dents coming to O. A. C. this

ness and order, fine beds of beau
tiful flowers, lawns unavoidably

trim, and a college farm that has
