UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu
gene. "Business men and women of
ability, initiative and originality are
needed all over the world, and oppor
tunities in this field were never great
er," declared Dr. Arnold Bennett Hall,
president of the University of Oregon
speaking recently at the banquet of
leading business experts of Oregon and
students of the school of business ad
ministration of the University, gath
ered for the first annual "opportunity
day' to be held here.
This "Opportunity Conference," ; at
which the school of business adminis
tration each year brings together ex
perts in the field of commerce and stu
dents here, is designed primarily to ac
quaint the young men and women with
present day conditions. Through hear
ing speakers and by private confer
ences, the future business men and
women obtain definite ideas on what
they should study in order to prepare
themselves for efficient work.
Accountants Needed
Skilled accountants are in great need
at present, and upon men who can do
this work largely depends the prosper
ity of the future, declared Walter D.
Whitcomb, librarian, and Ross Bras.
It is the accountant of a firm that
keeps the people operating efficiently,
checks losses and by knowing what is
going on all the time, enabling the ex-
ecutives to prepare for the future, he ,
stated.
Business as a career for women is
becoming more and more attractive,
said Miss Avis Lobdell, director of the
women's welfare division of the
. Union Pacific railway. Freedom from
housework, due to modern invention.
has enabled even married women to en
gage in commerce successfully, and
there are many fields in which women
are even better adapted than men, she
declared.
A successful career in business
awaits the young man who is willing
to start at the bottom and work tip,
declared Allen Meier, of Meier and
Frank company, Portland. Doing more
than is expected, , learning by experi
ence every day, and watching for.op
portuniteis should bring success to any
person who enters the business world
equipped with a university education,
Mr. Meier said.
Foreign Field Good
Opportunities in the field of business
for students who 'prepare themselves
for foreign trade were 'outlined by
James F. Fcebles, district manager of
the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce, and D. P. Miller, who has
just returned from the post of assis
tant commercial attache of the Ameri

Diet of Fish and Meat
Keeps Eskimos Healthy
The MacMilhur Arctic expedition of
1020, visiting the Eskimos of northern
Labrador and of Greenland, was ac
compnnied by a physician who used
his time In nnikliij; studies of the
. Eskimos' diets to determine some im
portant facts. The., e Eskimos live for
the most part on1 diets conslstins
largely of meat and fish. The meats
concerned are those of the whale, wal
rus, seal, caribou, musk ox, Arctic
hare, polar bear and fox, as well as
those of geese, ducks and gulls. ThB
fish are varied. This food is usually
eaten raw.
The physician, Dr. William A. Thorn-,
as, reports that, contrary to the gen
eral opinion, the Eskimos eat relative
ly little fat or blubber, using these
portions for oil In lighting their homes,
in melting Ice and snow, for drinking,
and, to a very little extent, for cook
ing food.
Doctor Thomas did not find any
scurvy or rickets among these Es
kimosconditions that are known to
-3 due to absence of certain vitamines
from the diet. Dr. Morris Fishbeln, In
