A BEAUTIFUL CAMPUS Last fall when the city unemployment fund was being raised by contributions from hundreds of citizens, the faculty of the Eastern Oregon Normal school, under the leadership of President Inlow, created its own unemployment fund to be used entirely in the work of beautifying the school campus. ? The members of the faculty contributed generously to that fund every month. Nearly a thousand dollars has thus been raised during the winter. A number of men have been given work, even during the bad weather, and there is much to be done this spring and summer. In spite of the fact that the program for campus beauti fication is yet far from completion, results are already evi dent. . The main lawn of the campus, just south of the building, is now very beautiful, and is the result of much hard work. The original soil was very poor and it was necessary to haul in hundreds of loads of good soil from the vicinity of the little creek which" runs through the southeast corner of the campus. An underground sprinkling system was installed ivt the time the grading was done, and the lawn waa seeded just about a year ago. t . , 1 - - Another very noticeable improvement now nearing com pletion will make the Eighth street approach to the campus beautiful indeed. The parkways on both sides of the street, up the hill, have been graded and spread over with rich soil, and rows of trees have been planted there and along L avenue,' bounding that corner of the campus. In order to plant these trees it was necessary to dig holes three feet mi , . .. . . . - , , .. . . . , .

As we have previously pointed out. tax reduction like charity, should be gin at home. Far better, we believe, for members of the congress to spend less time filling the Record with their patent recipes for ending the depression over night, and spend MORE time cutting out tha extravagance and waste for which they alone are responsible. Med ford Mail Tribune. Decision of the board of higher education to retain the school of journalism at the University of Ore gon is to be commended. In fact, newspaper publishers of the state were almost unanimous In urging the board to take this action, pointing out where economies could be incor porated that would render almost negligible the cost of maintaining the department. The university of Oregon school of Journalism Is one of the most effic ient in the country. Critics who sought Its abolition pointed to the fact that the rich state of California has no journalism school. If Califor nia can get along without one, why not Oregon, It was asked. Newspaper publishers, in their fight for the school, obtained statistics showing that Journalism instruction in California cost the taxpayers of that state far more than Oregon pays lor an accredited school, without the advantages obtained in Oregon. In fact. It was shown that many Califor nia students come to Oregon simply to study journalism in a school of recognized standing. The prestige and importance of the school of Journalism were such that it would have been poor economy to have eliminated it. The hoard used sound Judgment in changing Its mind. The Dalles Chronicle.

President Inlow and the members of the faculty are to be congratulated upon the wonderful transformation which they already have brought about; and it requires no great play of the imagination to picture the campus as it will be a few years hence. These men and women have made a permanent and valuable contribution to the city of La Grande, and the good work will go on. As funds are made available President Inlow intends to surface the entire north hillside with good soil and plant extensive beds of shrubbery, so that Normal hill will be a scene of impressive beauty.

Hosklns, of Baker, sang "Spring in Mentone" by James, and "Flamenca" by Moszkowski. The Moszkowski number Is an extremely effective setting of his well known Spanish Dance.

Jack Wright, manager of the Lib- erty theatre, delighted the audience with his rendering of "La Sorella," i a Spanish Marche by Dalbret, "La Rossita" by Dupont. and "For You" by Burke. In response to enthusias-' tic applause Mr. Wright played "The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise", as an encore. ; Tonight's program will be held in the Presbyterian church as an-, nounced, but Friday evening's pro gram, under the Glrectlon of W.
