EUGENE LIBRARIAN
OUT FOR DISLOYALTY
Reference Librarian at u. of
0. Regarded as Pro
German.

UNIVERSITY or OREGON. Eu-
gene, April 22.-The resignation of
Miss Margaret Upleger, reference Ii
brarian in the university library, was
accepted by the board of regents when
they met in an adjourned meeting
here Saturday night.
Miss Upleger has been charged
with pro-Germanism several times
since the United states entered the
war. These rumors caused President
Campbell to investigate the matter
when he returned rom Washington.
D. c., six weeks ago. When ap-
preached Miss Upleger strongly de-
clared her absolute loyalty to Ameri-
ca but said she would resign rather
than cause any comment against the
university. She handed in her resig-
nation Friday shortly before the stu
dent council passed a resolution ask
ing that all chaIg ges against her be
looked into and proper action taken.

LITTLE GOLDEN SLIPPERS.
By Agnes G. Brogan.

Dean Travis stood in the dark,
muddy road and locked about him
perplexedly. 1t was evident that in
this strange country he had lost
his way.
Here he was, near the end Of his
welI-earned furIough, and not one
eventful thing had happened. SO
long he had looked forward to see
ing a little corner OF France under
favorable conditions, and now, to-
right, at the climax OF his holiday,
he was lost on a rough hilly road.
How far the friend had brought him
in his car, dropping him off at a
crossroads. Dean did not know.
Nor how many miles his unaccus-
toned feet had since tramped the
way
He had been too much absorbed
in his own thoughts TO take heed of
time or distance. Long-reaching
shadows now told him that twilight
