l- HE eternal spirit of comradeship
| which has become an essential
q part in the life of every boy who
was member of the A. Il. +. will, no.
doubt be big factor in bringing out
record crowd to the lecture of Lien
tenant Lamar Tooze who will speak at
the armory tomorrow night in the in
! tcresfs Of the woman s. building at
Eugene. Aside from the fact that the
I, issue is one that is dear to the hearts
Of every Oregonian interested in the
education Of the young women Of the
state, and that the speaker is well in
formed upon the subject and excep-
tson&lly able to handle it in a master
ful and intelligent manner, the fact
that Lieutenant Tooze was one of that
great number Of unselfish young men
who gave up their all at the outset OF
! the war and volunteered for active
| service, should fill the armory to the
doors tomorrow evening. 1t is on the
rare occasions such as this that we,
| who stayed behind, can prove to those
who went, that we have not forgotten
<heir wonderful sacrifices. The rela-
tives and friends of ex-service men will
consider it pleasant duty to attend
the lecture given by a comrade of
their boys, and there is no doubt what
ever that Lieutenant Tooze will be
more than able to engage their inter-
est in the vital subjects to be discuss
ed.
