We are surprised to nee our names at the

President Sharpies' Address.
Iu accepting the highest position the so
ciety has power to bestow, I baldly know
how to thank JAB, my sinters, for tho grest
honor conferred in u me. lu the varum
oriental methods of ihaukiug, too much ol
the tine feeling is lost ill low bow aud UU
meaning gestures. Our coiuiiiou way seem
lo lack Ihe expression the occasion demands.
" there's a language that's mute,
There's a silence that speaks,
I ber is something that cannot be tobt
There are word thai can only be read iu the
cheeks,
Ami thoughts, but the eyes cau unfold."
Dofortnnatolj I an too late to bavoa oopy
of ibe last United State Prenideul' in
augural address as a pattern, and am called
to fill Ibis office too early to profit by tbe
one to be delivered on tbe lib of March.
Perhaps the only similarity between the
tidings ol the government nud of our society
lies in keeping up the revenue and the
tariff. The tariff will be kept up in tbe
shape of laves mi the delinquents fur their
improvement and to raise our revenues.
Tact nud talent are the two greatest require-
incuts I led In make one filled (or this
office. The lortm r 1 fear 1 lack and iu tbe
latter I know 1 am wanting. Dining this
school year already fourteen new and active
member have been added to our socii ty.attd
the subjects chosen for debate are made
more interesting nud profitable at each meet
on: A constantly incnasiiig attention is
being given tn lhe study of Hubert's ltules of
Order and I bnpo ue shall soon be o Well
versed in Parliamentary law unto be beyond
the criticism, even of our learned Laureau
brother. But let it not be content with tbe
excellence gained in the observance of rules
only. Perhaps more than we can realize
doe till literary Handing of our society de
pend upon the care and accuracy of our de
bates. Is it not possible for us to make these
Friday aiternoon sources of high literary
attainment, of readiness and grace iu conver
sation, aud a means of elevating our society
a well an our I'ntversity'i Have you ever
thought that we are probably thelnrgent col
legiate society of young ladies iu lhe State?
Much of the value and pleasure of our Week
ly meeting i in tho OpportUoirj we have
lor discussing tlie qiiestiops ut tbe day and
for knowing each other better. Yet there
ure many young ladn s iiinoiig u whom we
do not meet in our Etitnxinti Hall. Wo
ueed these students to increase our efficien
cy. It should be our aim to make them
need, n . Last term nearly every meeting
brought us a lnrgvr intuitu rship. Your new
President bop, s thai she may cancel not a
few uf the mauy blunders she will make by
the number she may huve tbe privilege of
announcing. The great pride tbe member
lake in Iheir society make Ibe a. ceptiup of
the position of president a most anions
matter and by way of insuring themselves
against disappointment during tbe time of
the preseul incumbent's office, let tbem con
sider her an opaque body and urrauge them
selves tiller the plan of tho brighter aud
mON luminous bodies el the firmament, so
lhal they may throw their thoughts' rays
upon her that she may relb ct their light and
bin. Again 1 thank you for tbis honor."

Much i being said in tho newspapers of

Legislature, which, if passed, will abolish
the system of free scholarships in Ibu State

certainly be a good movement in the right
direction. Hut that is not tbe plan. Soma

tainly would 1m- a great dt-lnment to tbe
growth of tbe University. It seems strange
to us tbat nun-resident of the State, like
Henry Villardare more liberal in their feel
ings toward the young people of Oregon than,
those of our own stale! May tbe nieiula-is
of tbe Legislature consider the barm they
