' Two hundred and sixty dollars, scattered over a period of 10 years, eitker ia cashj noteB or bonds, is ask ed of the former students and graduates of the Univer sity of Oregon living in and near Eugene. This is a part of the $10,000,000 endowment fund campaign that has been found necessary in order that the University may meet the demands made upon it by the increasing student enrollment. The drive among the graduates will ond next week, and so far about half the quota has been raised. It costs the state of Oregon $300- a year or $1200 for the privilege of presenting a graduate with a "sheep skin." Of course it cost the student some effort and money for incidental's, but it must ba remembered that the taxpayers, most of whom never saw a college, in vested $300 a vear m all the former students, itealiz insr the handicap to those who did not enjoy the bene fits of hieher education, these taxpayers ave freely in order that the standard of citizonship in Oregon might be raised and the developmbut of the state's resources raado easier by the knowledge gained at the University. It was an investment, of which neither principal nor in terest hns ever been paid. It has beeni claimed that a college education en hances the earnine power of the individual. If there are anv former students or graduates of tha university who are now unable to pay a part of this debt to- the rest of the state, it was a mighty poor investment tor the old time taxpayer. Any man can pay taxes, but it remains for the few to pass- on to the next generation: a littlo of that which was spent on nun or her oy those who invest ed in hisrhor citizenship; , The final drive to raise the balance of the- quota will, b put on daring this coming weetr and as yet Oregon- alumni have neves failed, to answer the- call of their alma mater- VVa do not believe they will this time, for if they do, how can they expect the rest of the state to come forward to help make up the deficiency. How can they expect the ignorant and untutored to help pay their debt to thoso who suffered the hardships of the pioneers, and made it possible to increase the earning power of the coming gonorationst The- eyes of the rest ot the state are on luigone and ours will be the shamo if our grnds fail at tins time. The day of reckoning is at hand. -TT-- -.f - i 1 r7 r r.i:rV,e"i " t a i:r gf (.'?. . a-' )il.nj i i AED Saturday Evening, gi , A republic Is a land In whleh the BWelUnK of a bank noaount In quickly cominunlcitod to head.

Both, however, aro remoyed from current dis cussion and both havo a perspective which in some ways shows them up in nioro nearly their true relations and in some other ways distorts the view and makes them look grotesque. And yet the yesterdays were once the present pulsing and important and imperative in de mand. . Tomorrow, too, will bo just the plain present one ot Uh'ho days. And they aro all alike more or-less in the essential elements that compose tli conditions of any poriod.

And the dreamers have always to announce from advanoing time to time a post ponement, more or loss indefinite, of the glad and per fect day when all tho wrongs will be righted. So, too, there aro retrospective dreamers, forever living in tho past aud investing tho sacred departed days with a glamor and glory that was novor quite justified by tho facts in tho timo whon these past times were prosaic and practical present. , These rcminiscont experts harp grandiloquently upon the "gold old days" and deplore the decadence of tho now tho deterioration of tho man ner and morals of the day in which we live and with which, aftur all, alono wo have anything really to do. It doosn't require an enthusiast or an optimist of tho professionally obsessed varioty to find tho actual facts of the record and loarn that tho 'good old days" wero not a bit better than the todavs wa live thronorh and wrestlo with ami glory in. Manners wore' not any better in the timo of llcorgo Washington than thoy aro now for the first gentleman of tho land in writing some aphorisms upon tho subject of common etiquette, advised his supposedly cavaliorish readers to refrain from spit ting uion tho floors and into tho corners of tho rooms of polite homes. -Maimers ox the peoplo as a whole todav are better. gentler, more courteous, more unselfish than they were in inose "flaey, daisy, lazy good old days." And if there are crime waves that spread over tin front pages of the papers these days now nnd then the general moral condi tions in this nnd in practically every other country are better today, in the main than in those rracionsly correct days to whioii tho grouohe and growlers are harking back forevor by comparison and contrast. There are more peoplo now than in the lots populous dnvs of the century ago and thore are more papers and quicker com munication and more thorough publicity of the reminis cences and doliqnonoies of the more peoplo now than wuen Hon iJTanicun kiartcd km little gazetteer in the oightoon hundred and something year.

BARTERING, NOW AND THEN The golden rule of all business and trade is that familiar adage "fair exchange is no robbery." Familiar ity 'with this history-old rule has bred increasing faith in it rather than contempt. The world recognizes the ex istence, of such a thing as "tair exchange," and with the passing of the years the tendency has been more and more toward the realization of fair exchange values. Nothing is more erroneous than the often-heard re mark that trade is only for merchants, that the consumer has no participation in business. The truth is that both sides of every transaction are tradesmen. The customer exchanges money for the goods of the merchant. The employe trades labor for the capital of the employer. The manufacturer trades his products for the capital of the storekeeper. One nation exchanges its products for those of another nation. ' . .. Trade was called bartering among the ancients and the barbarians and their market was the bazaar. The individuals of the villages and tho camps bartered among each other, there was bartering among the communities n T A 1. 11 1 1 I A1 - -I , or eacn counxry, ana mere was uariurmg mrougn snips and caravans between the most ancient of nations. Bar tering exists today on a much greater and more soientific plan than it did in earlier times,' but every human being is now, as then, engaged m bartering. .., , ' . I'sychologists parallel the Btages of human life with the stnires ofi tho evolution of humanity. IIow ttfrie is the parallel in regards to exchange." The tiny infant trades a contented coo and sweet peace for its nurse. As soon as he learns to talk the boy bargains with his playmates for the exchange of toys, pets and candy. Children are also schooled in the bartering of good behavior for candy, money and gifts. As youth matures it exchanges play hours for knowledge. Then there is a period when labor is bartered for money and tinally capital is exchanged for interest and an income for tlmse whose work is done. A sporting event which has been strangely overlook ed is tho ox-team trip from coast to coast. , It has taken three years, four months and sixteen days, and must have been a thriller.

"Not Ha doean't know anything about it," ahe said reluctantly, as though ahe waa making a confea- alon. 'Then you? You found the poem? It was really you that that took It from the tree?" Lee Interrogated joyfully. He drew nearer and tried to search Hope a face aa she turned it from him. 'Please!" she warned, catching the reckless tone In his eager voice.

Editorial .Opinion PAYING 'AN OLD DEBT (Astoria Budget.) Twenty-four years ago a yonng man entered . the University of Oregon. His capital was just fifty cents. One hand had been lost in an Accident but he was undeterred by either handi cap. He was determined to get an education. He worked hla way through the nni- ball team and was a recognized lead bal 1 team and was a recognized lead er among the Btud?nts. After his grad uation he went to Columbia Univer sity, New York, and worked his way through the law school there. lie turning to Portland he took up tibe practice ot law aud has become an honored member of the Oregon bar.. The man ia Homer 1). Angi'lL What prompts this brief recital of his ca reer is the gift of $3500 which Be hos just made to the University of Oregon. He is not wealthy but he has prospered, and he figures that the education which the state gave him with out charge has been a big factor in the modest success which he hes won in life. He estimated that his education at the state university cost the state J120O and he construes his gift as but a return of this money plus interest to date. . One might draw two lessons from the incident as related. One is that education is within the reach of any smbitious youth who has determms tion enough to fight ahead in spite of obstacle. Tbe other is a lesson in obligations. Mr. Angell's advancement in Kfo has been doe primarily to his own energy and will, but he is quick to acknowledge the debt be owes to a atate which, through its poblidj maintained university, gave him the opportunity of preparing himself for a career nnd thus increased his earn ing power.
