CHRISTMAS
BEST OLD DAY OF ALL
Christmas la the beat old day on the calendar. ;
Three hundred and sixty-four other days In the year come and
go, few of us paying but a small amount of attention to them.
New Years would pass by unnoticed were It not for the fact that
our friends keep telling ua of the good resolutions tbey are mak
ing and Inviting ua to a front seat on the water wagon.
Decoration day gives the older generation a chance to do honor
at the graves of our soldier and sailor dead to the younger gen
eration it means a bully good chance to lay off work and root for
our favorite team and help swell the gate receipts.
July the fourth brings with It outbursts of patriotism and a
great deal of noise, rattle and bang and leaves behind a trail of
disfigured, Injured and dead. The small boy glories in It wise
parents dread It the surgeons welcome. It.
Then shortly our president Issues his Thanksgiving proclama
tion and it Is given millions, of dollars worth of free advertising In
the newspapers of the nation.
But when Christmas Is In the air the English speaking world
sits up and takes notice. Each one of us becomes enthusiastic.
From toddling tot to second childhood, In all walks of life, in all
clauses of society, high and low, rich and poor, prosperous and des
titute, the well and the sick, the strong and the afflicted arise and
with one mighty shout, proclaim: "Rejoice for Christmas la here."
And why?
. Simply because the first Christmas was real and human and
genuine. There was a reason for It. ,
The reason was apparent to all who cared to know. And the
world knew.
Thousands of Christinas' have followed the first. Yet through
all the years the same spirit of "Peace on earth and good will to
men" has been preserved. The form of celebration has been
changed but little in the main it is Identical.
Christmas Is not the desire of a few It Is the privilege of the
many. There Is nothing of sham or mockery In it.
It's genuine through and through.
. It's as broad as the earth and stretches from pole to pole.
It's the best and best known day In the year.
It's Christmas.
A Merry Christmas to all and to
all a Happy New Year

O, A. C. AND OREGON WILL
PROBABLY PLAY IN PORTLAND
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallls. The football management Is
somewhat in doubt as to the final ar
rangements of the football schedule.
One game has already been contract
ed for namely, the annual contest
w'th the University of Oregon. , Jhis
game will doubtless be played In
Portland, as It is stated in the con
tract that the O. A. C. management
has the choice of location.
The University of Washington will
very i kely play in Seattle on Thanks
giving day, as Manager Zednick Is
very anx'ous to take on the Beavers
for tho wlnjup game of the season.
Washington State college is the
other l kely possibility on the O. A.
C. schedule, and if the inland em
pire team Is played this year, ' the
same will take place in Corvallis. It
is several years sine the "two big
state colleges have met on the grid
Iron. The relations, however, between the
two schools are exceedingly friendly
and they have worked together in
bringing about much that Is good for
northwest sport. As the Beaver
team will, lose but one man from this
year's splendid aggregation and
Washington State college is always
strong, the contest ehould be a bat
tle royal.
. O. A. C. will meet Washington
State both at Pullman and Corvallis
in baseball and basketball this year
and the Beaver wrestlers will Jour
ney to Pullman to grapple with their
husky team. ,
For a home meet at Corvallis, the
University of Washington wrestlers
will meet O. A. C. some time in
March. An Invitation will also be ex
tended to the Un'versity of Oregon
wrestlers to meet the Beavers.
