A MOMENTS PAUSE EMILY VEAZIE 0 Us, who from day to day pursue our busy life at the University so in- tently that we scarce can see beyond the day itself, comes, sometimes, the need of a moments pause. We become day-blinded, forgetting whence we came and whither we are going. And yet, it is only as we keep clear this vision of our goal that we can hope to follow the path to its at- tainment. Let us, then, for a moment pause to learn from whence we started and how far along the way we have come. It seems, indeed, a distant day when the legislature of Oregon voted to establish a State University at Eugene. That was fifty years ago. lVIoney was appropriated for the building of Deady hall, hut difhculty in raising it almost led to the abandonment of the project. Let us give thanks to those far-seeing citizens who saved us our Uni- versity by their personal subscription to the fund. We will better enjoy our many buildings now, when we fully realize and hear in mind the strides of progress which have been made. From today and our present faculty with its thirsty schools and depart- ments, it is a long look to the time when the University boasted two profes- sors. and a principal and assistant to the preparatory department. But it is only some fortyfive years ago. Truly we have advanced. And yet, if we could see to the heart of these early days, we should find there the same spirit that today makes us continue to grow and prosper. Though commencement exercises were held in the top of Deadyi and assem- blies beneath the trees in front, students gathered to express those same ideals that we now cherish. SO let us keep carefully our heritage from the past. that we may pass it on to the future-the spirit of Oregon which calls for hner students, finer Citizens, a finer state and a more glorious nation.
