'lhe excitement was very intensefor -a few minutes, although the casualties were few. Some of the boys were apparently unconscious of the whole thing, the' others were no doubt thinking, with fear and trembl- ing, that we might miss a meal or two. Mr. Scott gave a lecture on the gentle art of house keeping last evening.. It was- enjoyed by all, but needless to say, we fear the consequ- ences. , Bob Eblen occasionally favors us with a short visit. Mr. I- all came through the dining room door at such a tremendous rate the other morningf that he spilled sweet milk all over the floor. We say with tears in our eyes and with all seriousness, Mr. Fall, This must not naupen again. n ' Mr. Biles now spends his evenings in meditation. He remains in the quiet of his room, bending over voluminous volumes, constantly ad- justing the eye shade on his brow and studying who he can get a date with next Saturday evening. ' At last the mystery is solved! It has been a source of bewild -erment for some time, why Mr. Lemons never wears a hat. After weeks of-research Mr. Sherlock Bones reports that Mr. 'Lemons is of the Sunkist variety, of lemons, having characteristics pecul- iar 'to themselves. Whats the matter with your chin , Dr. Dinwiddie? She ducked and I hit the.floor. 'lhe apple crop of Hoiman Hall has been in a very grave condition threat- ening almost total extinction. 'Ihis danger, however, has not been due to weather -conditions alone. Last Mon- day evening apples took a sudden rise, and as suddenly. came down again. PHiLoMAT1liEAN NEWS. We are still taking in new mem- ibers. Our society like our school is growing rapidly. As our school and -society grow the needs of both are greater. VV e have found that our old Philomathean Constitution does not ' fit the needs of today. A new consti- tution has' been formed and adopted by the society. 'Ihe new constitution ,contains the great fundamental prin- ciples cf the old constitution. But the new constitution is -much better ltiian the old one for it is made to fit every new need of the society. We have ordered one hundred copies of the new constitution. We th'nk they will be out of the printing office in a few days. 'lhe Philos have always been at the top and we are certain that the new constitution will help' to keep us at the top. ' Our program for November 14, 1923, was very interesting. It was opened by chaplain duties by Farris followed by roll call. .Next was a question box. Some of the questions l were very interesting and the answers gave us some new thoughts, others were humorous and the answers were very humorous. Next came the 'irregular debate. Parker for the affirmative and Ever- sol for the Negative. If you want to learn more about that debate just ask some one that was there., I-lext were impromptu speeches by Tucker and Shelton. Next was a humorous reading by Cyrus Glover. Then we enjoyed some special music by Messers Farris, Hendrex and Pigg. We also enjoyed some speeches made by the old mem- fbers.

In spite of the rain Monday morn- ing the girls, at .Thomas Hall started out on their nutting party anticipat- mgan interesting day. It took 'three Scars to carry the party, and three lboys went along to help Mother Thomas and Miss Wingert in the task of chaperoning. After having a lot of fun and not a little excitement, we found the right road, and finally arriv- ,ed at our destination, which was !Grant's farm' near Morrisvillep Then came' the eats -hamburgs, buns, pickles, cookies, fried potatoes and CRAQAIVI that could be cut with a A knife.

For the last two years Literary So- ciety work has be-en on a gradual de- cline. Could there be such a thing as too little rivalry between th societies? Here is a problem for the psycholog- ist. Below you will notice tributes to bygone teachers. It is an unusual thing if a student really appreciates a teacher while that appreciation can be expressed in person. Yet teachers are human beings and as such would like- ly feel grateful for a few roses while they live and can enjoy them. When a member of our faculty helps you, tell them so. It will help them to carry their burdens and you to look on the brighter side of life. ' ,Nothing shows one's school spirit more than his way of boosting school enterprises. Are you helping to make your society the best ,one in school? Are you rooting for the basket ball team? Are you a Monitor' subscrib- er? Are you lightening the task of the Mozarkian editor? If not you are not doing your whole duty. Don't help start an enterprise and then leave the responsible one with his nose to the grindstone.

While Ishowing the characteristics desired in teachers by the average student they also give many of the undesirable ones as well. Note the contrasts. If 'you are alstudent, are you partaking of the good qualities of your teach- ers? If you are a teacher, are you living so that your pupils may, with- out danger, imitate your predominant traits of character? A hint to the wise should be sufficient. Of my numerous teachers, the one who has been the most helpful to me, and whom 'I have striven hardest to imitate in methods of study, views, and general attitude was my 'teacher of the social sciences. While, as a rule, her classes considered her un- Iusually strict, and somewhat hard to please, we could not help being im- pressed by her high degree of interest in the progress of her students, and by her unflagging zeal in developing the best there was in us. I cannot remember her being really angry a time during the whole year. Her attitude toward others was one ,of courtesy and sincerity. Her opin- 1 ions were not one-sided or narrow for lshe considered a question from many angles, and tried to choose the best answer. She never seemed to be too busy to help, and her manner was al- ways pleasant. She could smile when things went backward. I in 'M 5 I l :IAA accordingly. l 1 I ii A A FEW OF THOSE GOOD ' LEFT.

She never looked at a text from the beginning of a period until time to assign the les- son. She explained things well and never got out of humor. She had a way of meeting people that made one feel that he was in his correct place x-H1911 'sne was around. Everything She did was with the greatest ease.
