What right have the regents to give the press nusieao intr "canned" statements regarding thoso proceedings? Are tho university regents keeping solely in view the best possible administration ot tho university s ai fairs, or are tho current reports true that they, or some of them, nro playing politics with university affairs? o tho university regents know, what everybody else knows, that an acting president ought to be chosen for tho university indeed that ono should have been chosen long ago? Do the regents know that affairs of tho university administration are drifting like u rudder less ship? Do they know that within the past year, for tho first time in t.ho university's history, dissensions liavo arisen in tho university and cliques have been formed? Do they know that this has happened because of tho lack of nu authoritatively fortified directing head? Do tho university regents know that their action in discharging somo prominent faculty members and de moting others at their last star chamber session, has created a. feeling of apprehension among all faculty members? Do they know that it has weakened the-gen-eral nioralo at tho university? Siiico' it is now admitted that concurrently with the discharges and demotions among members of tho faculty mado on tho nnnounced score of economy, salaries of other members liavo been advanced, how nro thoso facts to bo reconciled with each other?

Tllli Lnno county pioneer pageant of last Saturday was successful beyond tho hopes of its promoters and the expectations of tho public. It was u big event, which ought to grow in fame and favor from year to year anil bocomo an institution of ours. It. can bo mado tlio big outstanding annual festival event of Hit) upper Willam ette valley. Mora thnii that it can bo mado famous over tho state. It has tho native merit and nttractivenesS for just that. Its chief charm lies in tho fact that it is some thing new and different from other festivals. In most festival events the object sought has been entertainment, and that word has usually been synony mous with frivolity. Hut in tho Lane county pioneer pageant, while the entertainment feature stands out strongly, there is tho .highly valuable background of in struction in local history, not alono of our school child ren, hut of adults also, who, through that entertainment, and through tho essays of the school children which nre its accompaniment, nro taught facts about our begin nings here that all of us ought to know. The pioneer pageant is the fulfillment of a big idea. If tho planes of Amundsen mid the navy ships ami planes of Miic.Millan and tho balloon blimp of Uretlir Aigarsson all succeed in reaching tho north polo this spring and summer, then what? if they or any of them find again the unknown frozen polar continent that l'enry mid MacMillan thought, they saw on previous trips, what shall be done about it?" For of course any land found in tho polar area will be uninhabitable. "What will tho world gain in substantial benefit if any or all of these hardy explorers reach tho north pole, more than it gained from the success of Peary, who did reach the pole, or even from the pretended success of Cook, who for n time matin tho world believo ho had reached it? Yes, it rained yesterday, but there will be some more Sundays this summer. In Lighter Vein J Printer's Error (Western Christian Advocate) The flower show had been ft great success, snd a few evenings later Mr. Blank, who had performed the open ing ceremony, was resding the local paper's report of it to his wife. Presently he stopped resding, Ms justifiable pride turning to anger. .Snatching up his stick, he rushed from the room. Amazed, his wife pirked up the newspaper to ascertain the reason of her epouse's fury. She read: "As Mr. Blsnk mounted tbe platform, all eyes were fizt on the large red 'nose' he displayed. Only years of patient cultivation could have produced on object of audi brilliance.

Why not show a little originality? Isn't the supreme court dignified enough on its own merits, without putting on fancy costumes to make it self more so? Hut whenever I've said this, hitherto, I've always been bawled out as irreverent almost pail able for supreme court contemptu ousness. Now, however, I've found somebody who agree with me Comptroller General McCarl. A judge can judge just as well in a black suit as be can in an ascension robe, McCarl says. Not tbnt he cares. Let 'em keep up tbe old custom if they get any fun out of it. But the government won't pay for any such decorations. The money mut come out of the justices' own pockets. According to McCarl, the United States hasn't a cent to waste on supreme court "at mosphere." Tho Washington administration is beginuiug to talk about a subsidy again. The shipping board simply can't get rid of the government's merchant fleet to private interests. Why not? Because, the board members explain, the high wages it's necessary to pay to American sailors and the expensive requirements of the La Follette seamcu's act make it impossible to operate ships under the Stars and Stripes at a profit, iu competition with other countries, That's why a subsidy i necessary to make up the difference. Now, for the benefit of iulanders, who may not know thet circumstaucps, let me say that sailors' high wages I Thin force consists mostly of a nlgli salnried director and numerous well paid chiefs division, section, com modity nnd personnel chiefs, a chief accountant, a chief clerk aud various assort ed chiefs, with an assistant cbiff to each chief chief.
