In stillness of the night, in day's wild storm,

In spring's first cheering note, in frost's first pall;
In murmur of young streams, in new buds' form
Unwillingly, I see you in them all.
Why should not I be free to find in these
Some element distinct which could efface?
Some
star which could appease
The thought of you which these do not replace ?
At times, for bonds which keep you far from me
And for their strength, my friend, I am too glad;
Nor would I wish them served, lest we should be

For nearly two .years the writer and his associate
have edited The Kernel. And now owing to the midyear graduation of the one and the pressure of outside
work on the other, they must resign their work to other
hands. For while students and editors may come and
go, The Kernel like Tennyson's immortal brook

TO A CYNICAL YOUNG POET
You. call yourself a cynic
And look into my eyes
So deeply that I must believe you.
And yet I've often wondered
If perhaps your cynicism
Were only a Benda mask
Worn by a little boy
Being world weary and wise as you

If students are wise in the use of their spare time
and lay hold of each opportunity that comes their way,
they will surely appreciate the splendid opportunities
that are afforded them at all of our convocations.

CONCERNING THE KERNEL
Last week on the editorial page of The Kernel appeared an article clipped from the Oregon Daily Emerald
entitle, "A Regent Censors Student News."
In the article was expressed the opinion that any
control exercised over a student newspaper, other than
the studtnts themselves, no matter how benign that
control, lok from the editor and the student an initiative
