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.

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

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

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

wore h Jong, blue: clergyman s frock, had

'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

Hugo, ''Irving, Hinnllett, Fielding, Sterne.
Cervantes and ' Hhakespeare, to say
notJtluf of nioderns. and had dipped into

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

. I can not dismiss the list without ref
erence to Professor, then "Tutor,"' Kd-1

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

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. .

I devoted much of my time dir

It is a great thing for a? baseball
