Last week one nf our Highest and most pop
ular former members, .fiss Nellie Coleman,
was married to Mr Silvoy Stuart of Crook
couutf; Oregoiu While we are sorry to loss
Nellie from our midst, we wish her much hap
piness in her new hoine. And this week Miss
Viola Cnmegys, a f irmer student, was married
to a Mr Withers of Lane county, e also ex
tend her our best wishos.
We noticed last week iu our brother editor's
column the fact that tho young gentleman
"thought" that th'j young ladies made all the
noise iu the had, iu consequence of which the
faculty are t liukin : seriously of forbidding the
students to t-pealc wher. l assing through the
same. Now our nrother editor i laboring
nn ler a wror.g Impression for it is not the
young hull 's at all; it is iu fact the said young
gentlemen who are laying the blame on the
"girls" poor ereatureej-but we guess they can
stand it.
Public fiheto'icals.
The public rhetorical were held In the
auditorium a week ago last Friday. Tho ex
ercise were opened by calisthenics by the

been Well drilled. We siuccr ly hope that the
calisthenlu class will form an interesting feature
during ad other clmpd exercises. Declama'

Good bye.
With this issuo wa say goul bye. We can
say that we have hadave.y pleasant time
during our term of office. We have often read

generally supposed them to hi very small, but
now we c..n folly sympathize with all editors.

as there are several names placed in nomina
tion, but we know that the young ladies mu
lling for the nflice are fully qualified to III' the
position of editV. Agaiu we say g'snl bye.
