This number will be raised, in February by those entering for the second semester and send the number in the college of liberal arts alone to more than 1000. The mark of 1000 was set by stu dents of the university last year, who organized themselves Into a Greater Oregon committee and went into the highways and byways of the state spreading the gospel of the university. Their work seems to have been well done. The high tide of stndents, as usual. comes from Eugene, with Portland next. An unusual mark is that set by the Redmond School, of Central Oregon.
