Instead a special patriotic number will come out on Liberty Day, October 24. All material to be published in this issue must be in the hands of the critic by 4:10 Tuesday at the latest. Front page material should be in Monday. It should be understood by all of us that there is a regular place for the restoration of lost fountain pens, books, locker keys, umbrellas, etc., to their owners. The finder of such an article should promptly leave it at the registrar's office, where the owner can call for it. If all will bear this in mind, there will be no occasion for taking the time of the assembly for announcing losses. Are You Doing Your Bit? Wednesday noon eight Juniors under the supervision of Mrs. Colby formed a Junior Double Quartet, with Miss Dodge as pianist. At the election of officers, Mr. Edson was made president, Miss Hammond, treasurer, and Miss Shoenburg, librarian. In list form the quartet members are: 1'iist soprano, Lillian Shoenburg. Second soprano, Caroline Hammond. First alto, Nina Lusk. f-eiM ml alto, Margaret Burnham. First bass, William Edson. Second bass, Reinhart Hanson. The quartet practices every noon for fifteen minutes and expect soon to appear in program. Later they will consider giving an opera. Miss Marion Simonton was chosen as first soprano substitute and Miss Hazel Huntsburger as first alto substitute. E The American Educational Material Company, of Philadelphia, Pa., has asked Mr. Bond to prepare a monograph on arithmetic. This is to be used in a new publication known as the "Specialist Plan," and Mr. Bond is the only person asked on the special subject assigned to him. The work will consist of a systematic arrangement of material for reading and study in most of the high school subjects, as for example, education, teaching and study. The English language and literature, American history and politics, the physical and the natural sciences, mathematics and religions. This will be especially designed for teachers and students. Every paper contributed will be written by a specialist in the subject, hence the work is called ''The Specialist Plan." Each department will be in charge of a competent editor, a specialist in his particular field. The editor-in-chief. Garret Harlow Lampen. A. M. D. C. L., Litt. D., is a specialist in the English language and literature. The material will be gathered from all parts of the United States and when complete will be literally "A Course of a Thousand Minds." The plan includes an indexed, subdivided binder in which the teacher or student will place the new matter upon each subject as it shall be received from time to time, thus keeping all papers on a subject together and up-to-date. The work is creating a great deal of interest, and many of the most prominent educators in America are contributing to it. Are You Doing Your Bit? MESSENGER ITEMS. Professor 'Klemme recently visited a tri-county institute in Eastern Oregon, held at Baker in that state, at which there were present a half dozen or more of our graduates. Professor Klemme took dinner with these students and they have sent greetings to the members of the faculty and to alma mater. The names of those present are as follows: Mabel F. Tillman, '17, teaching at Enterprise, Oregon, and home address is 75G First avenue, Northwest, Seattle, Wash. Sue Wilson, teaching at La Grande, Oregon, and home address is at La Grade. Wash. Edith Wilson, '15, teaching at La Grande. Oregon, home address is La Grande, Oregon. Ethel Wilson, '15, teaching at Enterprise, Oregon, home address is La Grande. Oregon. Jennie Shepherd, teaching at Joseph, Oregon, home address is Joseph, Oregon. Lack two summer schools of graduating. Frances MacKenzie. teaching at Los-tine. Oregon, home address Lostine, Oregon. Attended term of 1916-17. Anna C. Troedson, '12. teaching at Joseph. Oregon, home address is lone, Oregon. The custom of the school in past years has been for each student to draw a. name and purchase a ten or fifteen-cent gift for the person bearing that name, so that at the Christmas entertainment everyone would be remembered. Beside this, so Mr. Carleton, president of the Student Association, told us, from $30 to $50 is spent for entertainment by the Board of Control at the Christmas party. President Carleton proposed that we dispense with this unnecessary and more or less selfish enjoyment and spend the amount of money in the filling of boxes to be sent to the boys at the front at Christmas time. The school, as a whole, approved this plan and each person had the opportunity of being a sharer in this, by writing his name and the amount he wished to give on one of the cards passed around. It being urgent that the boxes he sent soon in order to reach France by Christmas, President Carleton appointed a committee of twelve to attend to the purchase and packing of articles. Get your 15 cents into the outer office! The student body also voted to give special recognition to the twenty-five or more Normal boys who are in training at the naval militia station in Seattle. A reception and banquet will be given them by the Association in that city on Saturday evening. Prior to the business meeting of the Student Association, Dr. Nash asked Miss La Verne Knowles, who was a member of the faculty two years ago, and who was visiting at the school, to make a few remarks. They were to the effect that this was a fine place to be and that she hoped we would not have to go away and come back to find it out. Are You Doing Your Bit? T In a ten-minute talk to the student body on Thursday at assembly period, Mr. Bever, of the Social Science department of the school, told of what he was pleased to call the change of sentiment toward our friend. '"The Enemy." A spirit of intolerance, he said, was be- (Contimied on Page Eight) A CORRECTION An article in the issue of Oct. 13, spoke of Prof. O'Shea as Dr. M. V. O'Shea. president of the Wisconsin L'niversity. It should have read "Dr. M." V. O'Shea, head of the department of education of the University of Wisconsin." CALENDAR MONDAY S:50—Assembly. Mr. Parish talks. TUESDAY 10:30—Assembly. Music under direction of Mrs. Thatcher. Miss Adelaide Steele Baylor, of the N. E. A., will speak in the afternoon. WEDNESDAY, LIBERTY DAY. 1:45—Special exercises. THURSDAY. 2:30—Assembly. Dr. Miller will speak. Clubs meet at 7:30. FRIDAY. Field Day, under Smith Carle-ton's direction. Are You Doing Your Bit? GOVERNOR LISTER Although we are all so busy these days and occasionally assembly does seem to consume too much of our precious time, we feel more than repaid for the period spent Thursday morning listening to our governor. Such an inspiring address did Governor Lister give, that each one present could not but feel a deeper interest in the war and in humanity. He made us see that it stands for something real and that the responsibility for the future of this nation and the world rests upon us. In our state we have five institutions of higher learning, the university, the state college and three normal schools. They are progressing, and Governor JLister said he looks forward to the time when they will be in the foreranks of such institutions throughout the union. Some believe that the institutions of higher learning have for a purpose the education of those privileged to attend, but this is not true. The state provides for these institutions in order to make better citizens of its people, and if these schools cannot fulfill this purpose it would be better to close their doors. We must feel that our responsibility is not to ourselves alone. We have a tendency of self-satisfaction, a feeling that the United States can do anything it attempts, and are prone to say, "Let George do it," but this war will bring home the fact that no government can progress if not backed by a united people. We must look forward to the future. We cannot let everything lie undone brcause we are engaged in war, but must consider effects of different things on the country after the war. The Liberty Loan is an important factor, not on- !v in present but for the future. People are meeting the demands. Already five billion dollars have been subscribed and before next July this sum must reach fourteen billion dollars. These bonds •hjvve been prepared so that a sum as low as $50 may be in- (Continued on Page Eight)
