Maurice H. Hyde, graduate of the school of journalism, class of 1918, received his sheepskin by mail at Stanﬁeld, Or., having left just before commencement to take the editorship and management of the Standard, a weekly published at that place. Maurice dashed off his ﬁnal examinations—which, by the way, he passed most creditably—shook hands with his teachers, and hiked for the train. Mr. Hyde, who is known on the campus and in Eugene as a musician of ability, is succeeding at Stanfield a man of almost identical talents, Lloyd Riches, who was only tempted away from Stanﬁeld by the offer of the position of manager of the Weekly Oregonian, at Portland. Mr. Riches has been contributing largely to the musical culture and enjoyment of Stanﬁeld during his stay there, and Mr. Hyde is qualiﬁed to continue this feature of his predecessor's activities.

Mr. Riches, in less than a year and a half, put a losing paper on its ﬁnancial feet and made it a recognized power for the good of a constantly widening community. Mr. Hyde is ambitions to keep up the record of his enterprising predecessor, for whom he will conduct the paper, and even to go him one better if possible.

Mrs. Hyde has joined her husband in their new hone at Stanﬁeld. 13
