Voice, of Maine and Virginia.

Commenting on the manner Of speech
in different parts Of this country. Ar
thur E. BOstwick in THE Different
West" has this to say:
THE pleasantest qualities of voice
that we have are to be found in Maine
and virginia-slow and distinct in
enunciation, sweet in intonation, In
neither state are children taught in the
schools how to speak. The persons
who talk as | have described are never
in a hurry Csouth Of Washington and
north of Boston time has no yalue),
and they would not be accounted typi-
cal Americans of the 'husting' variety.
Is it possible that rasping, metallic,

The WAX. Of a ship.

wake" for the track Of a ship Is a
Scandinavian word. preserved in dia-
lect Its original meaning, as Professor
Skeats tells US. was that Of an opening
in the ice, especially the passage cut
for ship in a frozen lake or sea, and
then. from being applied to the smooth,
watery track left by a ship after its
passage through the ice. it came to be
used when there was no ice at all.
This useful word is one Of the nautical
terms which the French have borrow
ed from the English. although it is
not easy to recognize it at first in its
French form Of "ouaiche," and it is
still used on the Norfolk broads with
its original meaning of an open place
in the ice

WILLAMETTE NOTES.

Following the suggestion offered by
the athletic council an amendment to
the student body constitution raising
the student body tax TO two dollars and
fifty cents. The fact that the medical
school will probably be in Portland
next year and this source of student
body revenue shut off makes it impera-
tive that some steps be taken to pro-
vide the means for carrying on student
body activities next year.
Another amendment was proposed
placing the Collegian on the student
body ticket and allowing the manager
50 cents n year from each student tick
ct for the publication of the same.
The freshmen picnic to have been
held up the river Saturday afternoon
was held in the gym instead the
