In raining inyHterions noise in tho halls, trumpeting on the fire nozzel and popping ncornH uKuinut doors, they dinplnyer a mental ncntenesH oud resourt'ctuiness in at wuh sitfuaiiy absent in the recitation room. There were three coursex, classical, scientific and literary. I omit the busi ness course -.since in those times stu dies1 f no cultural value were believed to be unworthy of a college. 1 1 wonder now what would be thought of a profes sor of ral -estate salesmanship!) Two preparatory years were held necessary been Use of the poor iiiulity of most high and nrenaratorv schools in the state. Mental, disdoline. ability to concen trate and training in memory formed thr basis , uf Jthe system. Over-emphasis was ruaeed on mechanical memorizing. Orig inal Jnveritlgation; wot discouraged, us leading the student to doubt the word of (he text-book wroter and professor. The student admiration of professors wuu thoroughly conformist. J reek and Latin were begun at the name tiine in the classical course. Gram mar was learned from. A to lizard. I applaud , now the thoroughness of this teaching and deplore the present I'ain-JejtH-Karker' methods in vogue. J Thra Month Per Science. - The scleutlfic course included Latin nnd German with nil the known scien ces, each science disposed of in three months. In chemistry and physics, no tudeut laid' profane hands on Profes sor Collier's text b-oks. There was no urds of judging 'Jmman Values Were in some respects different from today's Tin mti(h-(!HtHi iin'(l booster was culled n "biowhurd," a iivewire wuh known as . a "squirt," and. the . go-getter was .con sidered a public .pest. . A tirsrv sketch of this kind doe not give space for descriptions of the colli e characters and leaders.- Hut to omit the faculty would be like present ing Ifjimlet Without the Unue. President Johnson a Hunter. President .Johnson was u remarkable drill miiKtcr. ihiiroiiifh. nifticulous. a man of sound sense und u Jiuter of social frills. He hud a keen sense of humor and loved jokes, with which he used to il lustrate his points. Itis passion was diu-k and der hunting. In his treatment of students heVas kindly, and if be seemed ut times severe, he was never unjust. His oue weakness was the plug, und bo was uiven to nipping off chews surrepti tiously in the clussroom. - He was n small 'man with a high, rounded fore head, furrowed with wrinkles, and a pointed beard, an old Yale man by truin me and au old school democrat. His stu dents ever held him in affectionate mem ory, Professor Condon was the only mem her of the faculty who worked on his subject, gi-ology, apart from leaching und iiis investigations in the John lhy (Hint ry ure known to geologists todny He was a dear old gentleman und one of tlie most ncnutitm enurucier i nave ever known. For nualntnesK. T have never seen the like of Professor Huiley a curiously uu- earthly character who lived in a world oi sines, cosincH and tangents, a trifle deaf rsv , - j ;-bo .f--s"& : !? Mjmvr. I'Liim rim i i i i mihi KummmmmiJtX a und nuite near-sighted. He was tall and wore h Jong, blue: clergyman s frock, had 1lMtecUon and no- biology. Kngllsit accompanied 1atin in the lit-rfy-course. 'Literature was taught as a historic chronicle, and, I suspect, an something rather removed from human life thau as n cojument upon it. Hut, in anjr caae, is was not taught as a AcJny, ht u laboratory for clioloform lug and ( is sect log books. . - i W boys never thought ft worth while to study Kngllwh literature. Our read ing limy have been reckless, but It was nut life. - I can recally now among my classmates omnivorous reuders like Virpil JoiiiiHon. Irfe Travis, Owen Van Iivn. Karl Chureh, "Monk" Kitstland and Arthur Lowell, I I'un say honestly that by our sixteenth year e had read all 'of . Dickens, Kcott. Mark Twain. Hugo, ''Irving, Hinnllett, Fielding, Sterne. Cervantes and ' Hhakespeare, to say notJtluf of nioderns. and had dipped into hiHtonahfl like Hume and Mncaulny. : 4 'ha racier building was I hen consider ed the main object of education, nnd no orie (exnktatt a graduate to make n com merjii, uwt'HS for so me yeurs. Htnnd-I a cropped villowisli beard und mostuche und walked with a peculiar stdlky gait tie had two faciul expressions, one a look of abstraction. In the other, he showed his long teeth, indicative of phasure, pain or surprise. It was be lieved t-hat he was never (juite reconciled to having girls in his clusses. ' MjIhh Carson of the English depart ment always- reminded me of Oueen Vic- toriu, and from reading Htrnchcy, I think she had many of the outstanding quali ties of tiiut remarkable woman, tihe in sisted on strict decorum in her clusses and visited her stately displeasure on the temperamental cut-nps who forgot in em selves. Professor Hawthorne From Virginia. Professor Hawthorne, affectionately known as "Ituck," perhaps ifrom his billy-goat beard, was a Virginia gentle man who fought for the south and, I felt, had never ouito adjusted .himself to his new environment. Tie was kindness per sonified and was never known to admin ister a rebuke or register a flunk. Professor Straub remains todav as a sample of the old time quality., i'rofessor t oilier, l recall casually as ouiet little num. always ainiliuir and idea sent. . I can not dismiss the list without ref erence to Professor, then "Tutor,"' Kd-1 gar McClurc, who met a tragic death on , Mit.' Tacomtt. I can not think today of his loss without painr I JEo was a nuin of extraordinary keen; mind, and balanced judgment, of in sight and understanding' and. of noble i churacttM. J As I look back upon Eugene In thos years. I feel t-liut I enjoyed a peculiar privilege in iiKNochitiiiK with the pio neers und the interesting types develop ed In pioneer times. No man or woman could cross the pluins or come over the Isthmus or around the Horn and remain wholly MuiintcrcHtlug, like, the commer cial types of today, Eugene was Tich in churiurtei'fi. And no letter what my : grudge ugalnst the public scJiool, where wo were forcibly fed on intellectual chaff, I have never wished to trade away j my sub-freshman years at Oregon. . 5 Building Permits Are Issued In Day A Kvorily number of nnrmits were i- MKd (ifiu the oily biuldin; inspector' offic-6 w .b dty lnilt today.
