We hope that it will please you. that it will bring not inl a transient smile but will be the means of reviving in you maii happ recollections and memories of your school da s. With the deepest and most sincere lo e for buildings, students, teachers and traditions of our school, this annual has been compiled b - us; and it is our earnest hope that there is nothing in its pages which will not serve to increase the interest, the lo alt ' and love of every undergraduate and aliminus in the welfare of our hill- top Alma -M.ater. If it meets with your approval, if it will be to you a source of de- light and pleasure, then our hopes will have been fulfilled and we will have attained our best reward.

We dul not teel (jur importance as a class until we met to ha e our first class meeting;, which was the real heiiirn nt; of our class. There were M) ir.emhers present at this meeting. Altho the number was small, the class j rew in spirit and intelligence. Mr. Brink, president of the Junior class, was chairman of the meetiiifj;. After considerable discussion and voting, the following members were elected as officers: John Hodder. President; Dorothy Ke ser, Nice-President ; Marion .Maddon. Secretar ; David W. Zehner, Treasurer. Throughout the ear, many meetings were held which were of great importance, in which were suggested the beginning of Athletics, choosing of class colors and class flower. ()iir boys represented us in class basketball, football, baseball and class track meet. 1 he girls also worked hard w ith basketball to win a high standard. [lie class as a whole distinguished itself throughout the ear, and showed our upper class- men we were no longer green freshmen. ItBlnru of IHliJ iu ttis §rrml rar CLASS OFFICERS RoN.ALD E. Kini.iR President MuRiHl. A. (JkiFFrrFis Vice-P resident WxRy E. Wri.i.i Ms Secretary 1 ). ID Zehner Trcnsurer ' This year our class became a little more dignified and felt so important that we looked upon the poor freshman in such manner that really we forgot we had been freshmen ourseKes once before. Although some of our members did not return, the class was made larger by neu students who joined our ranks. We began our class meetings with great enthusiasm and they were attended b a greater number. During the first meeting the class discussed the choosing of class colors. After some discussion and debating, the class chose its colors as blue and white. We were represented in the football and other field athletics b Foster. Fought, Dormack, Leonard and IMcDonald. The bo s winked earnesth .ind did excellent work in Athletics. ' The one important e ent of our second ear was the public speaking contest. Muriel Ciriffiths and Walter Page were awarded the prizes. Pai c Tiii ' rity-fditr Ma we pause tdi hut a tew simple leHections of memories that are crowding hflrd upon us at this happ moment in our school lives. After t«-o lont; years of earnest work while in our Freshman and Sophomore Years, we, at last, as Juniors come to the realization th.it we are about to heg;in the last half of our earnest ef ' (Hts for better things. The class of 11 was made larger by the addition of many good students from various parts of the surrounding country. I ' he members of the first two years, guided and directed the n - members into the channels of knowledge and learning. The officers of our third ear were: George Bednark Pni ' uhnt Marv E. Williams Jicc-Prisidi-nt Alva Seltzer Secretary AuRLAN Collier Treasurer 1 o our class belongs the credit of true loyalty and patriotism. W hen Uncle Sam sent out his call for men, it was quite a number of our classmates who first answered this call to do their bit, and oined Uncle Sajm to help make this world Safe for Democracy. Those who remained showed their loyalty by standing back of the boys who had gone in their stead. Our class aided greatly in securing the banners of the third and fourth liheray loan campaigns, and was active in all of the war work of the year. We were represented by class basketball and baseball teams of credit during the year. Special mention may he made of our plucky little basketball team which battled hard against the Seniors in the championship; in the end, being beaten onl by a very small margin. Truly tlu- had lots of that good old 1 11 spirit. Our baseball nine also fought the good old fight with the kind of pep that only the class of 19 IQ has known. We dare not forget the good work done by our girls ' h;isketball team with Fischer as captain. Many are the times that the other classes looked at us in envy for being the possessors of this loyal little band. Then lastly, how we enjoy to sing the praises of the boys who represented us on the football field! Truly, it was Kirkoff, Davies, Dormack, Kehler and Leonard, with that genuine lOlQ spirit, ho made the old gridiron tremble on that memorable day of the Wyoming game. Who wouldn ' t be proud of ho)s like that? The class drama came along at the end of the year, a brilliant success, to crown all of our other achievements of the ear. Was there e er a happier school ear than this one? Paae Tiventy-fi ' ve ijifiloni iif 1U19 in Uh iFmirth or i niuir Urar CLASS OFFICKRS AI AR ' i K. Williams I ' louimt ' |L TDK J. Rosiil.l ricc-PresidenI Al A Seltzer Secretary Arth L ' R H(1F LA ' Treasurer Here at List, as St ' iiidis, we stop at the last few rounds of old Normal ' s ladder for hut a nioment ' s retlectioii and to hreathe a sijjh of relief at the apparent accom- plishment of the man task that we had planned at the hei;inning. Up, up we have climbed through four seemingly short years (jf pleasant inter- course and happy association with both faculty and fellow students. What happier memories could e ' er creep through the open window of our iniaginati in and find their places in that long line of |ileasanr recollections? Line for their country and duty called many of our bi)i,s, while yet in their Junior year, and willingly but sorrowfully they left our midst. Proud, indeed, are we to sa - that the all went where they were most needed, and ha e done their bit and, still more, the ha e done their best. Tim, howe er, has healed the man wounds, and so we look afar out in the distance and behold them coming hack to us; anxious, we know, to get back, but not any more anxious than we are to receive them. One by one, we greet them as they return to fill up the great gaps that had been made in our ranks by their absence. Though we remained here, while the went away, still e were with them. Side by side we worked in all the war work campaigns of the year. In the United War Work Campaign, the quota for the school as $250. But before the campaign had actualh ' started, we are proud to say, Old 1919 alone had subscribed this amount. Every member of the class was a member of the Red Cross. In one of the Liberty Loan Parades, the spirit of the class in war work was shown by the splendid float which was exhibited b - those who had taken part in the Pageant. Life within the school was equally as busy as it was without. I here was always something that we could find to do for the good of the school. We are happy to call attention to the beautiful picture entitled The Frieze of the Prophets, which the class of IQIQ has the pleasure of leaving here that, in years to come, others might re- member. In athletics, we must say that our boys didn ' t get back in time to have a fair chance; but, regardless of this difficult), we are proud to hold Kirkoff up as a standard of a good athlete, who, as captain of the Varsity in the Senior year, coached the plucky but inexperienced basketball five to a series of victories against almost over- whelmmg odds. In simiming up our four years ' accomplishments, we are happy in our success; but happier are we to feel that this success does not signify the climax of our achieve- ment. This we feel is but the bottom round in that great ladder, called Life. True to the 1 19 spirit, however, we trust that we may climb, round after round of this wonderful ladder of life, to the accomplishments of tasks that now are but the fancy of our childhood dreams: Onward! Upward! may we go, ' Fo the best things that we know. Striving alwa s for success, F ' arewell, dear old R. S. N. S. P iiji r-e.i ' ily-six (UlafiB of 1U10 (ffitrpru Mary E.

BERTHA MOLA BAKER Espy BERT Espy H. S. ; Normal Course; Philo; Day Student. Bert is a bright, shining lassie from Espy, who began to shine in our class in its Sopho- luiire Year. She is especially fond of asking questions in Physics class,, much to the delight of her class- mates. Bert had made plans to teach the rest of her life; but, since the war has ended, she thinks it better to change her plan. She says: . ivise man (lianges his mind, hut a fool Jiei ' er does Page Tiuenty-nine PAUL N. BAKER Espv •BAKE Espy Higli School; Day Student; Philo; Philo Drama; Junior Drama; Second Year Contest; CIa Baseball 2. 3; Class Basketball 2, 3. Paul entered our class in the Sophomore year, a quiet little day student. However, during his Junior year he became very active in school, as well as with the girls. In class athletics, Paul was always on the job to uphold the reputa- tion of the class. In his Junior year, he had one of the leading parts in the Philo drama as well as in the Junior drama. It was his hard work in the class drama that helped make it a success. He seemed to be a born actor and could fit in almost any place. When we came to our Senior year, Paul was among the missing, as he had joined the S. A. r. C. at Bucknell. He was very successful there and was looking forward to becoming an officer in the army; and no doubt would ha ' e been one, if the war had not ended. After he vas tnustered out, he returned to Old Nor- mal and joined the ranks of the 1919 Class. Paul ' s ambition is to go awa ' to college to take up medicine; and we are sure he vill suc- ceed. We vish him success and hope he be- comes a successful doctor. ANNA HAUM Ha .eltdii H. H. S.; .Xurmal Course; Plhlo; G. A. . . : t;. D. c. Anna came to us as a person who knew just how to force knoivledge into the heads of young children. She already had experience in teach- ing. She is a very Industrious and really )uite a clever girl. She can sew like a regular dress- maker and she can paint scenes to perfection. Anna has e es which, when she looks direct- l at vou, give ' ou an awful, shaky feeling. She has a voice meant for the giving of com- mands. Anna has won fame as a shark at working Physics problems. Many of her classmates are indebted to her for helping them out in this respect. She has almost all the qualifications for a good teacher and she is developing skill rapid- ly. Success, Anna. Fii;ii- TInily HESTER BARNUT Catawissa Music Course, Day Student. Hester is a girl whn has made luaiiy friends during her stay here. Hester is a good girl — no, indeed, we don ' t nieon goody-good — far be it from us to give that impression, because when Hester is aroinid it usually means fun for the crowd. Will we ever forget the day she kept time for us in Chapel? We really and truly think Hester will not only make a good music teach- er, but a good housewife for some deserving young swain. Fare tliee well, Hester; we wish thee sue- MAR ' BELEFSKI Glen Lyon, Pa. Philo; c;. A. A. Newport Township H. S. c;. D. c. Mary came to us from that well represented town. Glen Lyon. She is a girl who has a great amount of patience and is industrious. She has a peculiar giggle, which is continuously heard when Mary is anywhere near. She tells some interesting facts about some of her classmates from her home town. Mary is good in all her classes, but she shines in Domestic Art. She says it runs in the family to know how to sew. Mary ' s idea is to become a professional school teacher. She is striving to attain this goal ; and we think she is succeeding. She has the best wishes of her classmates to attain this goal and then go higher. Page Thirty-one MARTHA BIRCH Bhjomsburg Bl(Kimslnirf!; High School; Normal Course. Martha is one of our quiet dames and ap- pears to be very studious. During the quarantine, Martha was one of the sojourners whom Miss McBride held as a model to the dormitories. But alas! we tear appearances are deceiving — she is human after all. Martha is like the Bihle Martha, careful and troubled about many things; e. g., the little nymphs in the Model School, sleeping in His- tory of Ed. and keeping house. In all of Martha ' s undertakings we wish her the best of luck. ' MAR CELESTE BLECKER Gro ania Danville H. S. ; Normal Course; Day Stu- dent. Marv is one of our faithful few, always ready to lend a helping hand to those about her. She ' s queer in her ways, but we lo e her just the same. iMary takes great delight in making friends with those who are motorists. Her favorite disli for luncheon is custard. She is so lively that to refrain herself from mischief is a very hard task. To lie ijiiod, or not to he goo J, Thill is the i ueslio7i, Pnijf Thirty-ti ' .o INA -M. BREISCH Rmt;tii n Ringtowii H.

I wonder why Ina always likes to hear the names Bucknell ami State College. There ' s a reason . sk Ina. When the bell rings for dancing, Ina is among the leaders marching down to the CJxni- nasiuni. She entertained the Etta Bitta Pi club by jazzing. Putting all fun aside, Ina was a hard wink- ing student and we know that he will be suc- cessfid. CJood luck, Ina. LAURA BRIESH Rin towii Ringtown H. S. ; Normal Course; Philo; G. A. A.: Y. W. C. A.; G. D. C. LOLLY POP Lolly pop is another member of those Jit- nev Bussers. She is honored with the respon- sible office of ' Assistant Marshal ' . Laura is generous and extremely good na- tured, and is often found getting herself and her friends out of scrapes. In this, however, she sometimes is known to fail, as Lolly thinks when her head is hidden she is entirely concealed from her adversaries. An authority on Jraicint . Is Lolly ' s occupation — you are dishelie-ving. Ask modelites for consultation. I ' ayc Thirty-three MARIAN MAE BRENNER Hrand(in ille Kast rnion Township H. S.; Normal Course; I ' hilo; Day Student. Marian is a quiet, unassuming girl, who Mutlies hard and never neglects her school work fnr any frivolities. She lielieves, however, that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy; SI), if anything worth while is going on, Marian is alwa ' s there. She is one of the students that are always late for their first class. But do not hlame her if the car is late, for she comes from Lime Ridge e er da . Marian ' s aim is to be a teacher. The best wishes of the class go with her for success. Mll.DKKI) BURDICK ' a mart Normal C ' ouist t ' allie; Ci. D. C. C A. A.: W ' avmart H. S. ; V. W. C. A. MIL Mildred entered B. S. N.

In her Junior year Cabo was the professional skipper of the school. Her evenings were mostly spent on closet floors. But a decided change has come about this year. Why??? ■Ask Cabo. She ' s small in stature, but big in heart. Her laughing blue eyes and her happy dis- position have made her a general favorite. When in trouble or feeling blue, the best ad-  ice is — Go to Cabo. She is an angel; among the truest, dearest girls in the class. We all love her and it will be one of the hardest things in life to part with Cabo. We pay tu Cabo our highest tribute — A True Friend.

The opposite s? holds great attraction for Maude, and for this reason uc dare not think that Maude will hold school teaching as her life ' s possession. Ciood luck, Maude, in whatever you under- take. GRACE CLEA ER Elysburg -Normal Course; Callie; V. V. C. A.; G. D C; (;. A. A.

Truly, l:e was a friend worth having; the very life and soul of our social circles. Adrian was al- ways an emotional sort of chap, just full of a live for music and happy in his love for art. How often have our hearts been lightened upon hearing a syncopated version of one of our popular airs ring out, and turn only to see . Adrian rattling away on the chips of that old Rec room piano? What was life with- out Adrian and the piano r Just as often, we have seen Adrian, pencil in hand, and with a v?ry attentive little audi- ence circled about him, as he sketched in a gioup of faces with his usual exaggeration and digression of Faculty Physiognomy. Truly, Adrian was born with ability by no means common to us all. Our most sincere wishes for a successful career are ever wi h him. Paije T iiirty-se ' Ven MARIE COLT Meshoppen M. H.

ANNA WARY CON BOY Scranton C. H. S.; Callie; C;. A. A.; G. D. C. •ETTA BITTA PIE SO Anna (her middle name is Mary) came from Central High School after completing an il- lustrious career there. By looking up the meaning of Anna Mary you will find that the name applies to a medium- sized girl with dark brown hair, large spark- ling eyes, and dimples. This description fits our Mary perfectlw . ' nna possesses an abundance of wit. (She is Irish; that explains it.) If you want to be cheered sometimes, just call on Anna and ask her to tell you some of the funny stories about Our John, Our Bill, When My Grandfather was a Boy, etc.; and I ' ll guarantee that you will not feel blue after those stories. The strange part of it is that she always begins with, Now, this is true. Anna is a very good student, even if she doesn ' t have to study much. This fact is prov- en by the high marks which she succeeds in getting. We are all certain that Anna will be a great success and, although she may marry a duke or a prince, we are sure she will always re- member Old Bloomsburg and the class of ' 19.

In cooking, Edith is in Class A. We all know why, — I ' ll be a housewife some day. She is full of fun as well as work.

But, early in his Senior year, believing that his services were needed by Uncle Sam, he enlisted with the colors. He was stationed at Camp Lafayette, he began his training as a soldier. Dreibie came back to school a husky, broad shouldered, deep chested soldier, and his manly bearing was envied by the less fortunate boys. He also brought back with him an irresistible gloom-dispelling, army grim, which brightened up many a drears- dav at school. Ralph was well liked by all his fellows, as well as by the fair members of our class.

She was always ready for any fun, — providing her school work was done, — and never refused to do a favor for anyone. Sal is a firm unbeliever in cases, but we hate to think of Sal (our housekeeper) as an unclaimed blessing in the form of a school teacher, and therefore believe that her prejudices against the opposite sex will soon be overcome by a certain person whose name we dare not mention.

She could even make buns. .Ask .Xnna Conboy about the experience she had in the dining room the nite that Floss put her hair up in buns, etc. Florence has a disposition which enables her to take her part, no matter where she is. Even the Lady couldn ' t get ahead of her. No matter what comes up, religion comes first with Florence. If Florence had ten exams on Wednesday, and a missionary had come to speak on the note before, she would not miss the lecture. Since she is so fond of religion and listen- ings to sermons she would make a model wife for some young and struggling minister; for she could lis:en to his sermons whether anyone else could or not.

If vou want to find out more about this young gentleman, just get into a conversation with Gertrude; and I promise you that, no matter what the conversation starts with, nor no mat- ter how int?resting it is, it will always end up with something about dear Wesley. Ciertrude is a much-liked and good-natured girl.

Lucia is always in for any sport from a game of tennis to a stirring debate. She would rather get a walking excuse an ' dav than lake Gym. Perhaps this is because of her great love of nature. To have a good book, perhaps an apple or two, and go to bed appeals to her as much as anything else. In fact, we expect some dav to see same weighty volumes on Scranton vs. Wilkes-Barre, written by Lucia, adorning the shelves of every library in the universe.

She has a good storv to tell about a Saturday night ' s adventure on fourth floor. We predict a successful school teacher in Helen, from the fact that she did such good work in Model School, She never speaks much about her case ; but we feel sure that she won ' t teach more than the limited two years. Helen is fond of singing; and her voice can be heard ringing through the halls on third floor at almost any time. RUTH E. HEIMBACH Lehijjton Lehigton H. S. ; Normal Course; Y. W. C. A.; N. H. B.; G.

She gives this ad ' ice to other peo[ le, but fails to live up to it herself. Mary lives up to the (Jolden Rule, Do unto others as you would have done unto you. She believes in the saying that Sunday is a day of rest, for Mary would not think of doing anything on Sunday, except resting and observ- ing (|uiet hour all da long. They say that our Mary is very interested in penmanship. She received her diploma in it last vear, but she is still taking special lessons in it. W ' e wonder why? It is hoped by all that, if Mary can ' t succeed at school teaching, she will be able to make use of the many hours of toil she spent in the pen- manship department, learning to write well. HKLEN C.

He made good in all athletics; it seemed as though he was a born athlete. To him we must give a great deal of credit for our ' ictories in all three sports. It was not only his good playing that was such a big factor in our athletic suc- cess but also the spirit with which he went into the game. Kirk did not come back to the old school in the Fall l erm of his Senior ear, for he, like many others, heard the call of freedom and enlisted in the S. A. T. C. at Gettysburg Col- lege , where he earned his letter in Football. Immediately on being discharged from the serv- ice, he returned to our class. His ambition is to go to Springfield, where will prepare himself for a V. M. C. A. phy- sician director. We all know from Kirk ' s good work done here that he will make good in life. We all wish hitn to be in the forefront of hate ■er course he pursues. Paffe Seventy-four J. WARREN KNEDLER Moscow JANE Post-Graduate; College Prep.; Callie; B. D. .C; Y. M. C.

Besides being a great V. M. C. A. worker, he is talented in other lines. We may speak of him as being one of those persons who usuallv get there, hut never on time; and we fear that, when the day of recokoning comes, Jane will be late. We are all sure he did his part in the war when it came to conserving food, for one could always hear him saying, Bake — less. Although Jane did not reach the high standards of previous years, he did attain one honor — he became a Faculty Kid. But never mind; some day we shall hnd him among the country ' s wide-famed Phvsicians, Evangelists, or teaching Agriculture. - MILDRED KLINE Sunbury Sunburv H. S. ; Xormal Course; Philo; G. A.

S. in ' 17 and entered Normal in the Fall, where she fast gained many friends among both s=xes. Mart is an excellent singer, a very good dancer, and an all around good sport, always ready to do the thing suggested. Mart is a downtown student, and we all envy her good times, especially her week-ends or Sunday nights. Mart ' s motto is Laugh and grow fat, and her merry laugh often drives away the blues of those who are fortunate enough to hear her. . 1! who had the pleasure of seeing her on Halluwe ' en night will never have a chance to forget Mart. She has been a very studious girl nhile at .Xormal and has gained a rep- utation in all her work. While here Mart ' s list of friends increased rapidly, and leaving us she goes forth with the heartiest wishes for success. LINDA KREIDLER Vilkes-Barre Cheek ■ Flushing ivhile and softened red. Minijlitiij lints as ivhen there grov-s In snoz-y hills the hashjul rose. Linda is known by her friends as one of the dearest girls in school. Her sweet disposition is ever noted by strangers on making her ac- (juaintance. Linda wishes to be a friend to everyone, and is always ready to lend a helping hand. Her beautiful hair is a source of envy, and we often wonder if ths reflection from her sunny locks helps to give her that sweet per- sonality. Linda, when starting her Model School work, did verv well. Perhaps it was the inspiration she gained from one of her observers. (?) She is never satisfied unless her work is done, and done well. We think Linda ' s success liev in the ability that she has acquired in penman- ship.

This tall, dashing beauty, brimming over with laughter and tun, entered the far-famed portals of B. S. N. S. with the sole end in view of vamping all the bashful swains about the place. We must say that she has succeeded. But smashing hearts is only one of her ac- complishments — Carnival Queen, Leading Lad ' in Philo Drama, vonderful dancer, and concentration in her studies all go together to make her very popular. She is an adept at bluffing in classes; we don ' t kno v how she does it. Perhaps her smil- ing face so captivates the Profs that they forget whether she answers their (juestions or not. After her graduation from Normal, Falla ex- pects to teach in Catawissa; and our best wishes go with her for success. ANNA LOFTUS VVilkes-Barre W. B. H. .; Normal Course; Philo; G. A. A.; G. D. C.

She is looking forward to these re-union days with pleasure and has visions of the bunch assembled in dignit in the vears to come, as they have in the past.

Looks are often deceiving. One would think, to look at .Mabel, that she was a shy and demure little maiden — but, oh, my! she is the biggest tease in the class. Her chief delight and past time is to spend hours laboring over tree study, especially in distinguishing the Black Ash from the Black Maple. Mabel is always ready to warn others when danger is near — even at the risk of being over- heard by the hall teachers. She is a very studious girl and, when the bell rings she gets right down to business and studies. She has a ' ery amiable disposition and has made many friends while at B. S. N. S. MIRIA.M LLDWIG Catawissa Music Department; Day Student. Miriam graduated from C ' atwissa High School in ' 18. She showed a marked talent for music; hence her presence among us is a credit to our class. She could always be found in the rooms of the music department every Tuesday and Fri- day. Many times in the library we have been tempted to put away our books and listen to the wonderful harmonies coming up from the studio of Mrs. Miller ' s department. There ' s a winsome smile that sometimes shows itself and foretells of the pleasant time, if you are in this fair lady ' s graces. Her sole ambition is to be a great violinist. From the progress that she displays at pres- ent, we are glad to believe her place in the world will be a great one. During the time spent at dear old B. S. N. S. she gained many friends, and we all wish her success. Page Seventy-eight HARRIET H. LUHMAN Oakfield, N. Y. •■HAL HATS Allentovvn H. S. ; Normal Course; Callie; G. D. C; Y. W. C. A. Sec ' y ; G. A.

Dear, darling Hal entered our class two short years ago. She came to us from New York and we are in luck that she came to Blooms- burg, because what could we do without her? Harriet is a girl whose undying faith, and splendid judgment, and last but not least her good nature, have her a dear friend to all who know her. She is a faithful Callie and Y. V. C.

MARY LYDON Pittston MARIE ROSE St. Marv ' s H. S.; Normal Course; Philo; G. D. C; G. A. A. Mary Rose hails from Pittston, — that city especially noted for hospitality. She is a very graceful girl, and that gracefulness has been made more prominent than ever bv her stay at B. S. N. S. One of Mary ' s favorite sayings is, Have you a T. L. for your Aunt? It is well to mention in this connection that her request is usually followed by a generous supply of the samei This would indicate the high esteem in which she is held by all her friends. Her one favorite subject at this institution is French. We do not know why this subject has such an interest for her, but perhaps it is the sympathy she received from L. She has a winning way about her which is sure to cap- tivate one after being in her presence a few times. ' e refuse to believe that Mary will teach longer than two years, for her interest lies in the financial world. Mar - believes that Kno vledge is power.

Harold, because of his genial disposition, made many friends, who were glad to welcome him back from State. Just ask him to tell you some of his experience in the Commercial Depart- ment.

Why, her fame extends far and wide. The things which she can nor do are Nihil. Have you ever been in h?r room on a Sunday evening when she w as the whole show for the crowd? H not, you don ' t know what you have missed. Her hobby seemed to be creating new words and phrases for students and faculty, too. We al- ways did envy her stand-in with faculty and wonder how sh? did it. Although CJertrude was an ail around sport and alway ready for a good time and seldom, if ever, studied, she made good in all her classes. We all remem- ber her own particular way of reciting History and expounding the theories in Psychology ' . Much of th;; success of our year bonk is due to her efforts.

Amelia came to us as a dignifiad Miss; for she already had experience in the art of teach- ing. She has always been studious, and ac- tually shines in her pedagogical subjects. Amelia studies continually, except when her thoughts are far away dreaming of Stewart. This happens real often. It is thought by many that her sleep is dis- turbed by dreams of this young man, for she has become famous as an early riser. Amelia has a very sweet disposition. Some- times, however, she shows her authority, and then her disposition loses some of its sweet- ness. Amelia takss every chance she gets to run home. We wonder why? It is thought by her classmates that she will become a successful teacher; and our hopes are that she will make as industrious a wife for Stewart as she was a student. ELIZABETH G. MILLER Ashland ■BETTY BESS Philo; Normal Course; Y. V. C. A.; N. H. B.; G. D. C; G. A. A. Betty is one of the staunch supporters of the class of ' 19. She is also one of the prom- inent members of the Etta Bitta Pi Club, where her chief duty is to cheer the other members when blue. She is always ready to help any- one in their hour of trial, especially in their hour of hunger. But, putting all nonsense aside, we can conscientiously say that no jollier or truer-hearted girl can be found than Betty, always living up to the motto of the N. H. B. third floor. She is noted for her knowledge of Phvsics, but we wonder how long she can ap- pK the law of equilibrium to the Bosche aiul Hess problem. She is always happy, except when she allows her thoughts to dwell on her amounts due the Bosche and Hess Co. Danc- ing is on? of her chief delights. When she is not performing in the Gym, one can find her in the halls giving instructions on latest danc- ing. Betty has the best wishes of her classmates for a very successful and bright future.

Helen was one of our busiest members, yet she was always ready to lend a helping hand to anvone who was less fortunate than she. Although Helen loved to dance — and she was a good dancer, too, — she nc cr shirked when it was time to take her place at the piano for the rest of us. Helen never failed to respond in classes and never needed to be ashamed of her marks. Early in her Junior year, Helen discovered that there is not always safety behind doors. How about it, Helen? Her dramatic abilities are of no small measure, for she made Philo Drama during both years. Helen was always busv ; nevertheless, she found time to establish herself in the grace of the opposite sex, both at Normal and elsewhere, as her correspon- dence showed. .As to her future, all v,e can say is, Here ' s luck. MINNIE MORRIS Bloomsburg Normal Course, B. H. S. ; Callie. Minnie is one of our downtown students; but it cannot be said that for this reason we do not know her. Her solos in Callie have been excellent. She is a good worker for the So- ciety, and when she is asked to do something on the Private Programs, we never hear her say, O, I can ' t. We appreciate this greatly. .Minnie is a happy, cheerful girl and we feel that whatever she undertakes to do she will do, well. We extend to you, Minnie, heaps of success, (jood luck.

To attempt to put in this small space the his- tory of Bob ' s career at Normal is an impos- sibility; but we will endeavor to do him justice in these few lines. Our Bob came to us as a bright and prom- ising Junior after completing a four years ' course in the Newport Twp. High School. While here with us, he has succeeded in win- ning one of the honors of his class, namely, that of Class Historian. Bob is a very active person, taking part in everything that goes on. No matter what takes place in the school, Bob is always there to help; and may be called upon to do so in any line, for he is a very talented person, having: a Caruso voice, the fingers of a Paderewski and a Webster oratorical ability. He is a success in winning women ' s affections (in dramas). You will all agree with us in this respect, if you have seen him perform in the various plays here at Normal. ALBERTA PAPANIA Bloomsburg BERT Bloomsburg High school ; Nonnal Course. It has always been a pleasure to have this bright eyed, smiling, little Miss ainong us. Her gay life, just teeming with frivolities, strikes a pleasant note upon the heart strings of us all. What would this old world come to anyway, if it weren ' t for the smiles and sunshine of a few like our own little Bert? Being a downtown student, we regret very much that Bert could not have been with us more than she was. Aside from her smiles and pleasant disposi- tion, we learned that there was a serious side as well to Bert ' s life. She always found pleasure in being on hand at class meetings and voicing her sentiments in the transactions of the class business. We surely shall some day see Bert stand- ing before the bar of justice, pleading for the rights of others. May we prophesy a prosperous and happy future. s Piit e Eiijlity-srven RowicNA patti-:rson Nescopeck Music Hcpt. ; Day Student.

Pat hails from Bloomsburg, a place fa- miliar to us all. He is here to secure an educa- tion, he says, and the strangest thing about it is that it is the truth. Pat knows that the road to education is not one uninterrupted round of pleasure, but one often lined with vicissitudes. He found this out first nhen he entered the Biology Department, and second, when he was fanned by the paddles of the Soph ' s at Bucknell. Pat has been with us for four years, and his tow-colored hair is as familiar a landmark as Wentworth ' s Creometry. He says that he doesn ' t meddle with girls, but some of us know better than that. Laying all jokes aside, Pat is a jolly good fellow, and more than that he stands four square to all the winds that blow. W ' e wish Pat the best of success and hope that he may attain his great desire, the com- pletion of a college course. I ' ttqe Ltghty-t-ight ELSIE PERKINS Plymouth Plymouth H. S. ; College Prep.

Cpon entering the school, she immediately became one of the N. II. B. Elsie has no time for the opposite sex, hut %ve doubt the length of time in which she will feel so disinterested. I ' nlike most of our classmates, Elsie does not intend to become a school teacher when she leaves B. S. N. S. In- stead, she looks forward to four pleasant years at Mt. Holyoke College. You have our best wishes, Elsie, and we sincerely hope that suc- cess will be yours in whatever work you under- take. ELSIE M. PFAHLER Wilkes-Barre W. B. H. S.; Normal Cours?; Philo; Y. W. C. A.; Basketball (3, 4) ; Varsity (4) ; G. D. C. Elsie has never been known to refuse a dare, a good time, or an apple. But do not think that she lives to eat; quite the contrary, for she often worries along on two meals a day, breakfast omitted. She is always ready for some fun or some work, and the only time she is ever quiet is when she ' s asleep, at which times she doesn ' t even snore. Elsie is always ready for a good game of basketball and we would certainly feel that there was something lacking if, during every half scrimmage, we did not see her come strolling across the floor in search of the ball. In fact, Elsie is an all around girl, and every- one is her friend. Elsie is the most interesting member of the Etta Bitta Pi club. Here ' s wishing you success, Elsie.

Errna came to us in ' 17 aftjr finishing her course of studies in High School. Erma is very quiet, although this is hard to belie e, for most of the noise on third floor comes from her room. Consult Miss Mc- Quiston. Erma is very kind-hearted; therefore, she has many friends who visit her at wrong hours. Hence, she often has to harbor skippers. She stands loyal and steadfast to all. When a knock is heard at the door and the skippers rapidly disappear under the bed and in the closet, and the frightened, piping voice of her chum from the closet says, Erma, sav ' come, ' Erm dutiful l listens to the lecture that we should extinguish between Saturdav night and Siinda morning. Putting all nonsense aside, Erma is a real student, and we know that she will surely find success in anything she undertakes. Good luck, Erma. ESTHER L. REICH ART Hazleton REICHART Hazleton H.

Throughout her three years she has been a diligent worker and lias done well in all her studies, especially in the Biological de- partment, in which work she finds great pleas- ure.

You see, silence is the motif given to him by the orchestra con- ductor, for silence seems to be his characteristic property during the opening scene of the first act. But alas! the clairvoyant was wrong once more. Our hero develops signs which do not justify his motif. From a bedroom window on front campus can be heard a loud voice, Well, she loves me; and the accents are those well known accents used only in speaking of one person. This is not the strongest expression which can be heard from that same window, or from the same lips, or within B. N. S., col- lectively. No! No! Henry is not the retiring, silent person he appeared to be. He accorded himself the honor of Callie presi- dentship after being in school only two months, which speaks well of him. To sum him up: he is bum in his class work; and authority on casing; quite a fus- ser; a peach of a fellow; and quite popular.

Well, here is Anna; and, closely connected with her name, is another of four letters. Anna has always been a diligent student; and any- one who feels blue is always cheered up by seeing Anna ' s smile and hearing her say, Aw ta Heex with it. By the way, Bobbie, that handkerchief case is a wonder, and you surely should appreciate it. Her sweet and charming disposition helps to captivate all who may happen to be in her presence. One could not long be with her with- out finding a source of pleasure in her cheery smile and hearty laugh. She has high ideals and the best wishes of he class go with her for their realization.

She now teaches in the saine rooms where she has received the fundamentals of her education. As a day student, she is seen every day, slowly toiling up the hill to the school where, because of hei: eagerness for knowledge, she has become a credit to our class.

Aye, he is the very per- sonification of Pep. And who, pray, may there be who has striven so eagerly, so ardentls ' , so zealously in his efforts to raise old 19 to the high eminenc? which it now holds? The wonderful work that he has accomplished while active among the leaders of our Y. M. C. A. will stand well in a parallel with any other; while his worth to the Philo Society and to the B. D.

He intends to pursue this subject at some good college in this coun- try.

Helen came to us in ' 17 after completing the High School Course. In her Junior year Helen took life very cooly and took delight in her chum ' s nonsense. Helen could often be heard to remark, Well, Ruth. In her Senior year she did excellent work in the Model School, especially in the Primary grades.

He so profoundly manifests the characteristics of a deep thinker that one would think he was looking on the grave visage of a Socrates or a Plato. And Physics! — that ' s his middle name. Women? His greatest progress has been made along this line. In his Junior year, Frank so shunned all propinquity of the opposite sex that one would think he belonged to some secret Bachelor ' s Organization; but this year — Oh s ' .veet innocence — that was! He came to Nor- mal and — Presto Chango — Tower City is the word I Frank is an earnest and industrious sort of chap, always striving to make the most of things. His one great ambition is to devote his life to the scientific research of Electricity; let us hope that we shall some day see him an Isaac Newton, or a Michael Faraday, or a Yolta, or a Henry, or some other great world bene- factor.

With these characteristics we cannot but be assured of her success. Paijr Sinety-scveii SARA clp:.mentine shu.man Mainville SAREKA Mainville H. . ; Norma! Cmirse; Philo; Sophomore Contest.

One doesn ' t quite know whether to rhapsodize at length about her charms and talents, or to astound the reader by a recital of bare facts and conquests. Had you known her for four years, as we have, you would not wonder at this mental confusion of ours; for her activities are bounded only by the bounds of imagination. In Science — what a thinker! In Psychology — what a hlutfer! In Basketball — what a star! And so you see that, though we didn ' t really intend to dcj it, we have rhapsodized. I ' he fact is, that Smythe is such an all around girl that — well, she ' s an all around girl, that ' s all.

Although he is a good- natured fellow, and usually the sport of his crowd, his trolley car cases often get shifted around. Last year Pete was the President of the Basement Association. He thinks there is nothing like keeping things alive. His highest ambition is to become a sten- ographer. Did you ask where? We aren ' t positive, but perhaps he will apply for a posi- tion at one of the Grocerv Stores at Shadv Clitf. Our most hearty wishes go with him for a successful future.

Mildred, or better known as Stover, is a very sweet, kind-hearted and lovable girl. She is loved by all her classmates and wouldn ' t think of doing or saying a thing that would hurt any one ' s feelings; but is always trving to cheer others by her cheerful disposi- tion. (.)ne need not know Mildred to Hiid out her disposition, for all that is necessary is to look at this picture of her; it speaks for itself. Mildred is (|uite an active member of the C ' alliepian Society, and has proven herself to be a professional squelcher. She displays this talent by rising every Saturday night and reprimanding her committee members for not attending her committee meeting. She is a good student and takes a great in- terest in her work and is assured by her critic of being a successful teacher. Classmates, please do not forget that Mildred always thought that she could sing. It is thought ainong her classmates that Mildred must have a lot of music in her, for none ever comes out. mar(;arp:t summers Gro ania MARC Downtown Student; B. H. S. ; Normal Course; Philo. Marg, as she is called In her friends, graduated from Bloomsburg High i ' chool in ' 17 and, desiring a higher education, decided to climb Xormal Hill to get it. It is said that she used to be late at B. H. S. often, but we always find her early enough at B. S. N. S.

Margaret has been a member of our illus- trious class for three years, but we regret that we did not learn to know tlie real Margaret until our Senior year, when she helped make things lively on Alpha Hall. It was then that we discovered that at heart she was a good sport. One of the fondest memories which will always cling to her name is her desire to have clean gym shoes for the Ciymnasium Exhibi- tion in our Junior year. Margaret ' s abilities are not only in a scholarly line, but also ex- tend to needlecraft. As to her future, we fear she will he wedded to her profession. IDA J. SWEKTWOOU Center Hall Center Hall H.

It is thought that Marion has a voice full of overtones; for, when she talks, she can be hea ' -d from one end of the hall to the other. She usually starts way up in the Key of G but she keeps getting lower and lower until finally she finds herself way down in the Key of C. But, after all, Marion is one of the best girls of the school. She would never think of lireaking a rule. She is very good natured and is liked by all who know her.

She is often heard philosophizing on various subjects, and her sound reasoning always sweeps away all op- posing obstacles. She is a good sport, always ready for a good time.

Like a beam of sunshine coming from afar on its ethereal journey to gladden a world, so Mary has come to us from that insignificant lit- tle town of Sugar Notch, bringing with her that wcet and genial disposition and that ever- lasting smile which has captivated the affec- tion and admiration of every student at Normal. Truly, she is the sweetest, fairest and among the most popular of the girls in our class. She has a mass of dark l:)eautiful hair and big beautiful eyes, which have not failed to charm and fascinate anyone that may have chanced to meet their stare; while beneath her love for fun and jollity one will find she carries a heart of gokl, for she also is kind, gentle and sym- pathetic. She joined our class in the fall of ' 15 in pursuit of the Normal Course, after having graduated from the Commercial Department in the spring of the same year. Marv is a distinctive member of the Sapphire Club. This may seem kind of queer, and the name of this society may sound somewhat mystical; but we have not as yet been able to discover i ' s probable origin. Of course its no use asking Mary about it; she delights in being able to keep her secrets to herself and keep others guessing. If there is any quality that we admire in this little lass, it is the frankness with which she expresses herself to others. One cannot long be in her presence without soon feeling as if one were speaking to his most intimate friend. She posesses a will and determination such that she seldom fails to do what she says or thinks is right; and it generally is for the sake and benefit of the class. Tennis? Don ' t menticEi it — this is Mary ' s hobby. She is one of our star players and prides herself in being able to beat everyone else. In the spring and fall of the year you can always find her on the tennis courts, devoting all of her leisure moments to this pastime. Surely there are many things for which we shall always remember Mary; but one thing is certain, and that is, that Mary will be recognized by us as a very studious girl (?). She doesn ' t believe in being cooped up with a book in a dingy, little room, when she can pos- sibly be W ' here she can enjoy life to her heart ' s content — in the open. Among Mary ' s many virtues, there is one which we are inclined to think she has ac- quired from her reading of old Ben Franklin; and that is, Early to bed and early to rise. Mary is a sound sleeper and an early riser, and is always on time for her classes, of course ( ?). Last, but foremost to us, is the fact that Mary, as the president of our class, has safely piloted us in the stormy waters through which our class had to sail in the last round of its career. In the history of the school, she has been the first young lady to attain this honor, and has proven, beyond a doubt, that tactfulness and commanding genius are not char- acteristics which are inherent in members of the opposite sex only. Truly, she hasn ' t failed us, and we owe to her the greatest debt of gratitude for her untiring efforts in striving to make our class as it is. Toward Mary we extend our heartiest wishes for the utmost success and happiness, which we are sure will be enjo ed by her in the future. Paye One Hundred-seven DOROTII ' i E.

Ag is very talented in both drawing and music; but especially in music, when it comes to teaching in the Model School. If work goes far in making a person successful, we have no fears about Agnes. She is one of the shining lights of our class, and in each of her classes she displays that iriental alertness and in- telligence which is characteristic of a good stu- dent.

Come, take a look at him. The real genuine George. Our sweet, charming and smiling little boy has returned to us. And he is the very same George as of old ! George hails from Wilkes-Barre. He came to us in our S ' ophomore ear and — Ve Gods! did you ever see the like of him! He im- mediately gained fame and popularity with the speed of a 60,000 horse power steam engine. He had been with our class until the Fall in the beginning of our Senior year, at which time he heard the call of his country and joined the colors. And when at camp — Boy, didn ' t he rise! His superiors, forseeing something in the physiognomy of his cerebrum, soon made him sergeant and if the war hadn ' t ended we are sure he would have been made a Brigadier Creneral. But the Hun was soon beaten, and so Cieorge was honorably discharged. He im- mediately returned to B. S. N.

If you will look among the many faces of our class, you will there find one that belongs to a seemingly quiet and modest young man. After studying for sometime at an academy at Springfield, Mass., he joined our class in its Junior year and look up work in the Medical Prep Department, it being his ambition to study medicine. But before he could be with us an ' more than a year, he heard the call of his coun- try for volunteers, and like all true Americans he joined the colors. And what a wonderful experience he has had. Really, we wonder whether he is too modest to be proud of it. Yes, he has felt the sting of the enemy ' s weapon during the battle of the Argonne, for a scar can be seen on his left hand, which will always marit him as a hero. After spending nine months at Camp Meade, Md., he boarded the Leviathan and sailed for France, where he saw six months ' of foreign ser ' ice. He belonged to the Regimental Infirmary, 314 Infantry, 79th Division, A. E. F. Ftti r One Hundrni-elefen JACK HOUSNICK MASCOT What, pray, can be more important than to liiilcl the position of mascot? Or who, pray, could be more worthy of this honor than this rollicking little lad, without whom he are sure success would be impossible; and to whom, un- doubtedly, is due the credit of being responsible for keeping our class under the smiling auspices of Fate. ' as it not he that was always willing to plav his part and to carry our colors to vic- torv ? From the time that he was assigned to this illustrious |iost, in the younger days of our class, he has gradually won the love of every member of our class, and today carries the heart of everv senior on his sleeve.

Who is there, pray, that has so much gained the love and affection of every student at Nor- mal during these past nine years of Daddy ' s watch here, as this kindly, loving, old gentle- man? Is it any wonder that, as he passes through the halls on his nightly duty, he will be cheerfully greeted by the welcoming voices of Kello, Daddy! coming now and then from various rooms and at times when peace and slumber are supposed to reign supreme. Dear to the hearts of us all, we shall al- wavs remember him, who, while we slept, watched over us like the Shepherd watches over his sheep.

S. in the fall of 1916, a-; green and as awkward a bunch as ever lould be offered for amusement. But we soon at customed ourselves to the erind and routine of school life, and we s;t out with a determination to w in ; for we had ith us youth and enthusiasm and a sense of dut to our Alma .Mater, lo e for which has always been our foremost thought. The officers elected for this first year were: John Hodder President Anna Davis Vice-President Esther Shaw Secretary Ralph Anthony .Treasurer In the Sophomore year our class had been somewhat increased in size by the coming of several new students. In this year we settled down to more serious bus- iness and took part in various school events. The officers that were elected at this time were as follows : Thomas Laughlin President Anna Davis Vice-President Laura Shafer Secretary Francis Schools Treasurer In our Junior year we had reached a high eminence in our climb. We are now beginning to feel the dignity of upper classmen and to look down with a deriding smile upon the childish doings of the two lower classes. At the beginning of the year the following officers were elected : Henry Rich President Anna Davis Vice-President Laura Shafer Secretary Francis Schools Treasurer Really, for the class of 1 20 this had been the mo t successful year; ior it had reached the stage where its members could compete well with upper classmen, both in athletics and other school activities. Vhen such a stage is reached it is a sure sign that some real class spirit is producing its effect. This effect was not of any re- markable showing last year, but this year the Junior girls were a worthy match for the Senior girls on the basketball floor, while tht- Junior ho s captured the indoor track prizes by a wide range. The class has suffered during the war in the way of membership, but not school spirit or patriotism. We showed our patriotism by a large subscription to the War AVork Campaign and other activities. The two former presidents of our class deserve special mention. In our Fresh- man year Mr. John Hodder of Wilkes-Barre was our class executive. Mr. Hodder continued into his second year of office, when he left to join in the service of our country. And we have learned with sorrowful regret of the death of him, our former president and strong athlete, soon after his discharge from the navy. When j Ir. Hodder left our class, Mr. Thomas Laughlin of Shenandoah was elected to fill the vacancy. But Mr. Laughlin had also answered the call to service during the sum- mer and has since seen active service in France. To the class of 1920, the smallest Junior class in many years, will fall the dif- ficult problem of competing in its Senior year w-ith an under-class superior in num- bers; but the past events give us the necessary faith for a successful conclusion of our Normal School Course.

We pledged thirty dollars as a class, or about a dollar and a half a piece. And we were the first class to pay its quota, in full. We have been handicapped by want of numbers, so 1921 has not yet made its mark in Athletics; but we feel confident that we won ' t continue lacking there after the usual opportunity to grow. We have tried to show you something of our bright past, just as we are about to plunge into what appears to be a glorious future.

Since the orjranizatinn of class we think we have proved ourselves worthy of be- inj; Freshmen in this school. We are doing our best to become Sophomores, and get out of the shade of the Green ; hut we have to wait another year. As we look forward into the future, we can see four years of hard study and a few pleasures, but we will buckle down and go at it with a will and with such confidence that, in the four years we will spend here in this school, our class will have the highest honors. We will keep in mind the words of Columbus, Sail On. These words are very fitting for what we have been doing, and we expect to follow them. During our one year here, we have striven to do our best and hold up our end in giving to the Red Cross and other organizations asking for aid in helping- our sol- diers and sailors in the service. Although we are known to the other classes as Greenies, we are known to our teachers and friends as Freshmen. In our one year here we have proven oursehes .iis loyal and interested in all activities as the other classes. We are preparing to do our bit in this World, Watch and Wait.

Tlie importance that such a Model School plays in the work of the Norm.al Kducation can hardl ' he o er estimated; it is a department In which practical teachiiiiz i at the disposal ot every Senior. Here we have a regular graded school, with s rades from one to nine, wherein the op- ,iortunities for acquiring experience are vast. The school is presided (j er h four Critic Teachers: Misses Mabel Mo er, Helen Carpenter, Edith Maize and Sadie Kintner, who are the critics of the primary, first and second intermediate and grammar grades respecti ely. Prof. O. H. Bakeless is at the head of the Pedagogical Department and supervises the work pursued through- out the Alodel School. These instrtictors are tuli able and competent to take charge of the Pedagogical work whicli de (il es upon them. There are at present about 175 children who are students in the Model School, and the sort of training which they receive here is the best possible : for it is the aim of the department to administer to each child individually. The work is directed by Seniors, who in turn are constantly under the ad ice and critici m of the critic teachers mentioned above. .A new and no el method of instruction that has been recently established is that of the motion picture machine. The benefits of such instruction cannot be over- estimated, as by such means as these the children acquire truer conceptions and ideas ot the world about them tlian could otherwise be gotten by the mere verbal interpreta- tion ot teacher or hook. Toward the procuring of this machine the whole Model School has displayed a willing spirit and hearty co-operation. 1 he Seniors, as they go out into the world as teachers, will be grateful for this benelicial training which they now here receive; and the best wishes for the continued success of the department will be continually cherished by them.

The lirst and second ears ot the course ami to brin;. ' up any academic 1 8 ! | hii.h the student ma ha e not completed to make his attainments those of a graduate of a first class high school. The Junior and Senior years of the Normal Course aim to take up the common branches in review, with the sole purpose in iew of learning how to teach them. The Normal Course of our school is so planned that it becomes possible for a student from a first, second, or third class high school to enter and finish with the equivalent of a four years ' high school course and a two years ' teacher ' s course. It is also possible for the student coming from our rural districts, who has probably not had the advantages of a high school, to enter and graduate as a teacher. At the com- pletion of the Normal Course a certificate is given. After teaching two years in the public schools of this state, the graduates of the Normal Course of this school ma put in their application for a diploma. Instruction is not only given in academic work but also in Manual Training, Domestic Science, Domestic Art, Agriculture and other optional and required sub- jects. The professional work is mainly confined to the third and the fourth years of the course, and affords training in School Management, General and Special Methods, Psychology and Child Study, History of Education and one period daily of Practical Teaching in the Model School for one ear, nameh the Senior year, under the supervision of four Critic teachers. Each senior in her teaching has the opportunity of teaching not simply one grade and one subject but rather all the grades and many subjects. llin:Jr, ' ,l-t jir!y-l-,.i Page Unc lliindrcd-lliiily-lhree OlnllriTir Prr;iaralnru Sr artmrut Y a special provision of the state charter, there is maintained, in connection « ith the Teacher ' s Course at the Bioomsburg State Normal School, a Coilege l ' rep:nat(ir Department. This is by no means a new departure, for the de- -s ,i« ! p;irtment dates back to the original establishment of the school in 1866, and B ever since has grown in strength and reputation. The community and the trustees of the Literary Institute were unwilling to allow the institution, which they had founded and fostered at great expense and personal sacrifice, to become a state institution, unless the provision to furnish the young people of the communit)- with a broad, general education, could be maintained. It has always been the polic of this school to urge upon its students and grad- uates the importance and advantage of a higher education than a Normal School is fitted to provide, and it is a source of pride and gratification to those in charge of the various departments, that the school is constantly represented among the students of the colleges and universities of the countrv , b large numbers of its iormer students and graduate . The preparatory work dore at Bloomsburg differs materially from that of the majority of preparatoiy schools. All the strictly college preparatory branches, as well as thiiie ot the Tea her ' s Cour:es, are prcsentrd with reference to their pedagogic as well as academic value. The result of such training displays itself in furnishing the students with a broader conception of these subjects than is otherwise possible, and renders them more self dependent and better able to think for themselves. There is no doubt that these meth(Hls are practical: this is shown by the splendid work done in college by those who ha e taken preparatory work here. The usual work of the College Preparatory Department in English, History, Mathematics, Science, etc., is going on in the customary manner. An important change, however, that has been brought about this year is due to the fact that medical men must now do their pre-medical work in college. Such a change has automatically made it necessary to discontinue work along this line in the Biological Department. It may, however, be proudly said, that up to this time the Medical Course had carried many men rnd women and prepared them for their work in college, many of whom are now in actiial practice. - -.. The Department at present has a good membership, consisting of persons pre- paring for Penn State, University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, Lafayette, Gett shurg, IJucknell, Wellesley, H(!lyoke, Cjoucher, and others Certificates for the S. A. T. C. were tilled out ior a large number of students. Diplomas are granted to those who complete the courses satisfactorily, and are accepted in lieu of entrance examinations at many colleges.

The HloonishurL; State Normal School has one of the most efficient bus- iness teachers in the eastern part of United States at its head. Many stronfj Normal students ha e taken the Commercial Course, in addition to the rejiular Teachers ' Training Course these last few- years, because of the great demands for efficient and reliable business men and women all over the country, and specialK during the recent crisis — the WorUl War. Hloomsbur ' j Normal has one ot the best and most modern equipped commercial departments in this part of the state. In its course, it contains all that is essential for a successful business career. The class of I ' U ' can well be proud of the girls and young men, who are at Washington, er ing our country. It is this that gives, not only Bloomsburg Normal, but also the Department and the Instructor in charge a wide reputation.

In Society the influence of this department is felt stronLily, for the instructors are always ready to help us work up first cla s musical numbers. Due to the untirina; eftorts of Mis. j. K. Miller and Mis Rich, a course in Supervision of Public School Music has been thorout;hl ' establishetl. This covu ' se of study is carefully and systematically arrant ed. The students of this course supervise the music in Model School and act as Critic Teachers of Music to those Seniors who may be teachinsj Vocal Music. Two from our class are graduates in this course: Mar Hancock anil E. C. Barndt. The appreciation of jiood Music for Children which the Model School receives is worthy of irreat commendation. As we look over the accomplishments of the year, we will admit that pleasant memories can be traced to our increasing apprecia- tion and love for good music. The Art Department is also well organized and stroiiL ' . Ow has onl - to ex- amine the walls of the studio, in which are many specimens of the work done b students, to aiipreciate the high quality. An exceptionally fine Art Exhibit was held here this year in the Chapel luuler the guidance of Miss Meitzler and Prof. Bakeless. The e.xhibition was held during the entire week, ;uid one evening was given oxer to the students; at which time the Seniors ga ' e talks on different pictures that had been assigned to them. With the proceeds a movement was started to decorate the walls of the corridor in the Model School. P(U i ' Onr Hnndrtd-lhirty-st ' vt ' n JFlu (ijuarautiur P riday, Octolx-r 4. I ' MS. 7:00 A.

An enjoyable afternoon was spent in the tastefully decorated tiymnasium, James ' Jazz B nd furnishing the music for the dancers. In the evening, one of the most suc- cessful dramas ever given by Philo was presented, entitled In the Vanguard. • Philo is a splendid organization and v, e, its present members, have pledged to former and prospective members our co-operation in making this the most successful vear of Philo. We have done our best. If the members of Philo take this pledge each succeeding year, one can see ahead un- numbered years of prosperity, in which new members will carry on the advancement of Philo, adding to her accomplishments and activities, — years in which the high ideals of those who established our Society will find their fulfillment, and in which we shall see, by the develop- ment in our members, that, Speech is the ' Image of the Mind.

URINC; the forty-five years of existence of Callie Society the membership has steadily increased. When we took up the work in the beginning of the school year, we were greatly encouraged by adding to our number many new students. We therefore be- gan the work with a greater zeal and determination to make this the most successful of all Callie vears. Saturday evening programmes were immediately planned. These consist of musicals, readings, songs, debates and discussions of great authors and composers. The Journal is also a part of our weekly programmes. This gives everyone a chance to advance along editorial lines, and the work is so- divided that everyone may be benefitted. Th; 22nd of February was our usual Reunion Day. The morning programme given at this time was a Washington Day Programme, which was very appropriate. The most im- portant event of the evening was the presentation of a drama, entitled, The Romanceers, by Edmund Rostand, which proved most successful and spoke well for the dramatic work of the Society. All of the activities of the Society already spoken of tend toward the accomplishment of our aim, namely, to give all of the members a public literary training. The Service Flag which we had presented to the school was this year replaced by one of increased size and beauty. May the coming Calliepians fully realize the value of our motto, and may we be guided throughout life by that same motto, Excellence or Nothing.

[S this school year draws thus to a happy close, all of us have pleasant recollections in mind in connection with this year of our Y. M. C. A. work, which can never be forgotten. Truly, we may think of it as a year of promise and success such as our V. M. C. A. chapter has never known. Our 1918-19 cabinet inembers have worked splendidly and, as a result of their labor, they are proud to hold forth, as a model -.._ tor coming years, our 100 ' ' Y. M. C. A. chapter this year. The cabinet who have worked so faithfully to this end are the following: Karl Berger Bible Band Committee Arthur Hoffman. .. .Membership Committee Rexford Noack Reputation Committee .Arthur Felker Finance Committee Ralph Anthony Athletics Committee Henry Hill Social Committee Victor J. Rosell, ' 10 President Robert L . .Xyhart, ' 19 Vice-President Myrlynn Shafer, ' 21 Secretary Karl Berger, ' 20 Treasurer J. Warren Knedler. .. Devotional Committee Robert L ' . Xyhart Music Committee Henry Rich Missionary Committee The above members of the Cabinet should be highly complimented for the splendid way in which they ha ' e fulfilled the duties of their respective offices. Their success, however, was due greatly to the co-operati n and spirit of brotherhood which was felt throughout the stu- dent body as a whole. Mr. Arthur Felker began as our most worthy President at the beginning of the year, but, having been called away by other duties elsewhere, was obliged to resign, much to the regret of the remaining Cabinet members. I[i the month of May, 1918, Mr. Knedler and Mr. Wesley Davies were sent as delegates to the rni ' ersity of Pennsylvania to a conference for Y. M. C. A. leaders. In the month of June, 1918, the following meinbers were sent as delegates to the Blairs- town Conference: Arthur Felker, Robert Nyhart, Wesley Davies, Karl Berger, Paul Long, and Henry Rich. On February 21st of this year, the presidents, Victor Rosell, .Arthur Felker and Lawrence Keefer, attended the college conference for Y. M. C. A. leaders held at State College. Th following month Mr. Keefer was sent as a delegate to. a conference at Harrisburg, which dealt with the probabilities of our great reconstruction period that is yet to come. Plans are now under way to send as a large number of fellows as possible to the Y. M. C. A. conference to be held this coming year. It has not been hard for the rest of us to realize the wonderful amount of help and inspiration which our conference delegates have brought home to us and to our organization from the various conferences which thev have attended. There have been other agencies also in action this year, to which we owe a large part of our success in our work. One of these was our splendid Y. M. C. A. basketball team, which was entirel a new feature in our Y. M. C. A. work. Under the capable coaching which they received, they proved to be a very valuable asset to the life and spirit of our organization. There was also a stirring lecture, entitled, Brains — Plus or Minus? given bv Dr. Gilvert of Berwick to the student body under the auspices of our Y. M. C. A. Thus we might go on and continue naming those various agencies which have made this year the successful one that it has been in the life history of our organization. But now it is our lot to leave this work to those who ar? to follow; and in our leaving we sincerely trust that those who succeed us may show to the world a decided improvement over the small services which we found ourselves able to render our Y. M. C, A. and our school. P Pa,, On,- UiinJicJ-lortyf.i 1 . y. C. A. Cabin HT l ii(ji- Out: fi(inJ7t l ' f ry-st. 1. m. (£. A.

The Social Service work is not only confined to the school but is far reaching and does a great work. This committee visits the poor of Bloomsburg. Donations are sent to the needy and a Christmas partv is gi en in the Normal Gymnasium. In the Eight Week Club work, Hloomsburg stands in the front rank because of the suc- cess of the clubs. The Conferences which are held at Eagles Mere are a source of great benefit. There are many ways in which one is greatly benefitd at Normal, but there is nothing that lielps one more than to be actively engaged in Association work at Bloo msburg.

Schraeder President Arthur Felker ' ice-President Charles Felker Treasurer James Sweetwood Secretar - HE Boys ' Dormitory Club is an organization that has been established many vears ago, and e er since has grown in strength and numbers. It is com- posed of the buys in the dormitory and its membership is always a 100%, tor rarely if ever can a boarding student be found who refuses to enjoy the benefits of such an organization. Like all other organizations, this club has been organized with a purpose, and the advantages that the bo s derive there. rom are many. It brings the boys into a closer relationship with each other and helps to establish among them the mutual bonds of friendship. Questions involving all the boys in the dormitory as a whole are considered by the club, and as an organization for obtaining a better understanding with the hall-teachers it cannot be surpassed. A permanent grievance committee is appointed at the beginning of the year, and it is the dut ' of this co;nmittee to see the hall-teachers about disputed questions, petitions, grievances, and other disagreements and dissatisfactions. Moreover, the cultivation of self-expression and independent thought are other important ad antages to be derived from being a member of such an organization. The meetings afford wonderful opportunities for good speech making and intelligent discussions. The boys are required to pay a certain amount of dues each term and so a fund is kept in the treasury. The money is expended in the most useful and profitable way. Subscriptions are made for the dailv papers and the best magazines; while the best sheet music, games, and other reading material are always to be seen in abundance. Fhe club has this year purchased ;onie excellent games which are greatly favored and appreciated by the boys. The Recreation Room now has two pianos, one of which has been purchased recenth ' , and these help to make possible the lively times that the boys often enjoy there in their leisure moments. (5ne of the amusing features about the meetings of the H. U. C. this year is the frequent indulgence by the club in mock court trials. The enjoyment derived from such trials is unbounded, and they tend to lighten the hearts of the boys by their ludicrous humor .ind comical situations. Such trials, though possessing this humor of a somewhat subtle nature, are simph a means to an end, as they are of a certain educational value and tend to develop the expressive power of the boys.

The aim ot the Club is to promote the welfare of the girl student body and to have an organization For the Girls, Of the the ( irls, and 1? the (jirls. The Girls ' Dormitiir Club is an advantage to the girls in many ways. It binds all of the trirls living in the Dormitory more closeK together and brings them into a clo-er relationship with the hall teachers. The G. D. C. was organized by the girls in the fall of 1017, when 221 girls entered as charter members. ( )ur m.embership this ear is e en larger, as all the new girls that came in became members immediateh. Th work of the G. D. C. is done by Committees. These Committees are ap- pointed by the President and rep(jrt at every regular meeting, which is held on the last Thursday evening of each month. The Committees are as follows: Membership, Initiation. Reading ' . Music, (i;n-.e, Re.reation, Room and Grievance. The Club has taken over tlie responsibility of the Ci. R. l.. and it is the ambi- tion of the Cj. D. C. to make the room the most attracti e in the school. A fund is kept from which magazines are purchased ; but tliis vear we gave this fund to the American Red Cross. We ha e had a very successful year, but we know that the rext ear will be just as successful, because our under-classmates of the Girls ' Dormitory Club are capable of holding up the Club ' s reputation.

Well, the girls have done their very best and have kept B. S. N. S. athletics alive. The Girls ' Athletic Association helped to do thi cr thiny;. - - ■ Our first meetini: of the girls was called December 5th, 1018. The first thing to be done in our meeting was the election of (jfficers, and the following were elected for the year: Lillian Fisher President Muriel Griffiths Vice-President Priscilla ' oung Secretary Harrriett Luhman Treasurer Mary Durkin Manager of Varsity The newly elected officers were then installed and the business meeting followed. We had a large bill for hocke sticks to be paid, and this took all the money from the treasury. It was very difficult to find a way to get money in the treasury again because of the various war activities this year, such as Liberty I oans, the r L C. A. Cam- paign. Retl Cross Drive, and others, to which we gave freely. The way decided to make mone was that ot haxing our class Basketball games on Saturday night and charging admission. The financial collectors of the association worked their very best and collected the ear ' s dues. The girls of this ear ha e kept the motto — Fun, decided on in I ' iS. All those who attended the class games will say that they had their share of Fun there. Also another place of Fun was found in the Spring of 1Q18, when on back cam- pus you could set a group of girls playing croquet or quoits with a set bought by our Association. ' Fhis Spring, one more feature of Fun will be added, and that will be Hocke . It has been decided that e ' ery year the money left in the treasury will be used to buy something that will further Girls ' Athletics in Normal, together with their idea of P ' un. This ear the Association decided to buy swings for on the campus. These we know w ill be enjoyed b all the students of the coming years. Fhere are nian other e ents which occurred this year, but our space is limited : so it is all said in this: The girls this year are proud to say that they enjoyed them- selves and worked well tn keep up the athletic life and spirit of the school.

The story circles about Phillip, a young man of a peaceful little village, Si ' ? I who hated the curse of war. He longed to stay out of it because he knew ' ' ' ' i and understood its cruel and unmerciful practices. Finally, scorned by the people of his village and spurred on by his sweetheart, Elsa, he leaves to take part in the battle. Because of his bra ery upon the battlefield, he soon becomes an officer very highly respected and loved by all of his men under him. He is now to be promoted to the captainship of his renowned company; but, when brought before the commanding officer, he refuses to accept the commission offered him. He has just come from the battlefield where he had been in the thick of the fight, helping in the slaughter of his fellow men. After the battle he encounters a dying soldier, one of his enemies, and there is impressed again with the horrible practices of war. He begins to see things in a new light, lie is unable to continue the slaughter of his fellow men as he has in the past. He is forced to refuse his new commission and leave the army. His home-coming is greeted as a very disgraceful affair by the people of the vil- lage. But, little b little, his friends become reconciled to the fact, and even begin to see war as war really is, and as Phillip had seen it. Elsa, at last, comes back to Phillip and begs his forgiveness for having treated him so harshly — and the story ends happily enough. The leading roles were played by Falla Linville and Robert Nyhart. A verv dif- ficult role, that of the enemy, was played by Russel Davies with remarkable ability. The scene settings were among the many attractive features of the drama. The drama, as a whole, was a grand success, and each one of the cast deserves to be highly complimented for playing his part so well. Indeed, Philo is to be congratulated upon such talent among its members.

It takes place Where you will, and when you wish, but the costumed and the expressions make us think that the period is that of Louis XLV of France. No better title could have been chosen for the play, for though at times we think Rostand is cynical and even satirical, yet we conclude that The Romancers is simply a healthy picture of two youngsters longing for excitement and finding that after all love and adventure are to be found everywhere, and that we are fools to s;ek them elsewhere when they are within us. Pasquinat and Bergmin, two landed gentlemen whose properties are adjoining, are widowers: Pasquinat with a daughter, and Bergamin with a son. They are ver ' anxious to unite the two estates and the two families by marrying the children. However, Percinet and Sylvette are of so romantic a disposition that the crafty old fathers easily understood that a proposed union would seem undesirable to the oungsters. They therefore, pretend to be bit- ter enemies, and never speak of each othr except with the vilest expletives. Percinet and Sylvette, who have grown up away from home, accidentally meet, and, although their fathers are enemies, fall in love, as a matter of course. Now, there is a most romantic spot where the two properties are separated only by a vine-covered lofty old wall. Here the lovers frequently meet to read Shakespeare, and murmur secret nothings. At the same place the fathers are wont to meet and compare notes on the progress of their plans. Bergmin overhears the Io ers da ' dreaming of a thrilling adventure in which the hero, Percinet, wins his true love, t ' ylvette. The fathers, with the aid o f Straforel, a swordsman, decide to make the dream a reality so that affairs may be hastened. Sylvette coming to meet her lover in the twilight, is seized by S ' .raforel and masked men who seek to carry her off. Hearing her cries, Percinet scales the wall, rushes at the villains, who drop dead, and rescues her. The fathers, overcome with emotion, give their consent to the union of the rescued and the rescuer. On the eve of the wedding Percinet and Sylvette discover that the joyous adventure was a fraud. Percinet, in a fit of anger, rushes otf to seek real romance in the w ' ide world, while SyU-ette decides that she really never loved him at all. However, Percinet finds but little romance in real adventure, and Sylvette learns that a real abduction is rather disillusioning. Broken in spirit, a very prodigal son, Percinet comes back. He finds Sylvette and proves to her that true love is the great romantic adventure, and that their love is very real. The play was exceedingly well staged, the lighting and mechanical effects being excellent, and the stage prettier than was thought possible. The small cast never lost character, and vere a credit to the director. Miss Butler. All in all, The Romancers made one of the greatest hits of years. THE CAST Percinet, a lover J.

It was ijiven by the Seniors, assisted b the willinii under-classmates as well as the Model School. Louise K. Adams was chosen May Queen and presided with unusual dignity and splendor. Atter being summoned by the Buglers, Father Time was the first on the scene, and he reviewed the passing of the seasons with great pomp. After beautiful Sum- mer and Autumn, Winter came and, lor a time, held full sway with his allies, the F ' rost Fairies and Snow Drops. Finally, fresh, young Sprinir appeared and quickly dispelled all the gloom left behind bv Winter. Spring was accompanied and escorted by nvmierous tiny Brownies, Elves, and Sunbeams, who tumbled, danced and capered with joy about our throne. Then Spring summoned the beautiiul flowers, and with them came their May Queen (Louise-Adams) and her large retinue, which was composed of Milk Maids. AVeavers, Shepherds and Shepheredesses. Heralds announced her coming in the four directions. (lur beautiful and stately Queen was then Crowned by two Pages. After her cinunation. she was behttingU entertained by her untiring retenue with folk-dances, w ea ers, anil athletic events, and a ALay Pole dance, in which many took part. The beautiful and gra e ceremony was iewed by over a thousand. The entire compan left the field in a stately recessional and proceeded to the gro e. where an appetizing supper was ser eil in honor of our ALiy Queen. Every- one had a pleasant time, even though it did rain a little. We finished the altogether enjoyable day with dancing in the Gymnasium. The perfect success of the day was due to Miss Schools and the Committee, com- posed of Miss Mitchell, Miss Rich, Miss Shover and Mr. AVeimer.

Sutliff Manager Look where we will, we can hardly find a parallel to the wonderful record in baseball that Normal had made in the Spring of ' 18. Undoubtedly, the season may be considered the most wonderful and most successful in the history of the school. Our record was perfect; every game that was played was a victory for our boys. What stal- warth and splendid warriors the season had brought forth, and how splendidly they stuck together — each man doing his duty ! Who of us will forget that most thrilling game with Wyoming Seminary? Surely, that was a wonderful game. Even now, there seems to come up before us a recollection of how in the seventh inning the score was tied, 2-2, and remained so until the twelfth inning. Yea, even now we can recall how valiently our boys had fought to break it, and how at last, in that twelfth inning, we had gotten a run — • and VICTORY was ours! The fine showing put up by our boys accounts for this season ' s wonderful record. Griffiths was our star twirler. As such there are but few who can compare with him. And who will ever forget Kester ' s wonderful work on first, or his long drives when at bat? Was there ever a game in which he didn ' t make a homer? Our outfield was made up of Kirkhuff, Ikeler and Felker; and the nice work of this trio cannot fail to be admired. Leonard was a splendid shortstop, while Casey was an ideal third baseman. Focht played as catcher, and his splendid throws to his brother on second was the downfall of many trying to steal second. Shearer also pitched for Norm.al and made a splendid showing. In fact, the team all around was the best that Normal ever had. Normal 10 Normal 20 Normal 19 Normal 3 Normal 9 Normal 10 Normal 4 Normal 8 Normal 7 Normal 6 Normal 14 rasnn Srnrr -Mt.

T. C. gradually began stealing away our boys, it completely shattered our hopes for a football team for the season. In fact, as one after another had left, the condition of athletics at Normal began to look more and more despairing. Rut that did not say that there would not be a basketball team, at least. For, failing to establish a football nine, Normal early set to work to organize a Y. M. C. A. basketball five. Although there were but a few boys from which to select, still those that had been recruited were the best that could be gotten anywhere. What we lacked in quantity was counterbalanced by what we had in quality. Where else can we find such wonderful players as Schools or Kirkhuff? Truly, these were stars of the first magnitude ; and were really the foundation upon which our team had been constructed. If it hadn ' t been for these. Normal would not have even cherished the slightest hope for anything like a basketball team. They were the pivot men of our team, and time and time again they swimg our boys to victory. It was through their brilliant maneuvering and wonderful shots, all from critical angles, that Normal almost had scored. Vhile the work of Anthony, Shaffer and Wilson can hardly be excelled. Undoubtedly, such a splendid showing on the part of our boys in an indication of the wonderful training and directing such as can be given only under the splendid guidance of Coach Weimer.

The only and largest game of the season, on our floor, was pla ed March 5 ;. Whoever said that this school lacked spirit? They had something else to say after this game. We had the largest crowd of any athletic game this year. The cheering was marvelous. The game was with Vilkes-Harre High School. They hrought a large crowd of rooters alontr and. together with our own crowd, there was s ' Jiiif yelling and cheering. This game tested well the strength of our team, and they showed that they were superior to Wilkes-Barre. The team work, throughout the whole game, could not ha e heen hetter. The good passing done by our team was admired by everyone. The first half of the game ended with the close score of 1(1-8 in our favor. The last half, the girls went in it with all their might and main, holding down the ' isitors and raising our score. The game ended 20-8, in favor of B. S. N. S. The Vilkes-Barre team consisted of ery fast players, which helped to make the game more interesting. This being the only game on our floor, everyone celebrated the occasion. AVe admire the good friendly spirit shown us b the AVilkes-Barre girls. At the beginning of Easter Vacation, April 11th, we will play on their floor.

If one con- siders how heavily the class has suffered as a result of the recent war, one can tint hvit feel assured that in our showing this year we did reasonably well II g ' ■ - ., and as much as could be expected under the circumstances. And so to an impartial mind it will seem of no great wonder to learn that, in the annual track meet, the Juniors carried off the honors by a wide margin. We, therefore, do not feel one bit embarrassed in the matter, for we can always look back with pride to the previous records of I ' - l ' at Normal, and at the wonderful record it would have made during its last year at Normal had it been allowed to go on in its course unmolested and under the same favorable circumstanies.

J Piiffe One Ilinuirfd-sfVfnty-fiv, THE ORIGIN OF JOKES Jokes were invented by Adam ' s and Eve ' s grand-parents, beint; imported to B. S. N. S. from Ejiypt, Babylon and Assyria. They are now in extensive use and are indispensable at dinner parties. There were orii;inallv twenty-tive jokes (incliulint; the elevator), but after the G. D. C. was formed there remained only twenty-four. These jokes have married and inter-married amoni; themselves: and their children visit our classes quite often. In a single period, a joke has been known to tra el from tup floor of Science Hall to the north end of the Library. The ioke is no respecter of persons, but tells the story of his life over and over again. In fact, outside of some well known faculty members, he is the greatest re- peater we have. Jokes are of three kinds: plain, illustrated and pointless. Frequentl they are all three. Courses in joke appreciation are at B. S. N. S. Students will often sit in the front row in a class room and break into uncontrollable laughter over the same joke seven or eitrht times a term. This is a vain effort on their part to substitute joke appre ' - ' i.ation for stud. . Georize Bednark is always singing, I W ant a Doll. All applicants line up in single hie. (Oh, George!) If a potato and a tomato started on a race, would the tomato ketchup? Prof. Bakeless: Of late, your work has been rather perfunctory. G. larks: I ' ve been cominii here for three months and that ' s the first bit of praise ] ' e had. Thank you, sir.

Talk not to them in the halls nor on the street. Observe the eighteen inch rule; but cultivate a lasting friendship. Nyhart: Why don ' t you laugh when Prof. Bakeless tells a joke? Schraeder: I ' m not taking History of Ed. for state aid!

GEORGE ' S BIRTHDAY COMMEMORATED Feb. 23, I ' l ' ). Cieorge ' s birthday was fittingly cel- ebrated yesterday on third floor. The hoste-ses were: Misses Edwina Evans and Eliz. Miller. Robed in the most fetching costumes, they received their many guests with their usual charm and courtesy. A program was pleasantly rendered, after which no refreshments were served, as George was not present. NOTICES Found on Bulletin Board STUDENTS ARE REQUESTED TO FURNISH THEIR OWN TOWELS AND ANY ADDITION- AL BEDDING NECESSARY. LOSS OF PRECIOUS BOOK KEENLY FELT We noticed that Miss Mildred Evans was feeling very discouraged lately. When asked the reason, she said that a wonderful story had been taken from her room. She was just at the point where the proposal was being made. She says: He was such a wonderful hero! ' She offers a reward to the person who brings it back. WISDOM ' Eat onions and izrow fat.

Go for iiur mail rit;ht after Chapel. 3. If you wish a book from the Library, take it and don ' t bother the librarian. She has other work to do. 4. Always use the back of library slips for writing notes. TheN are made ex- pressly for that purpose. 5. Students are urged to attend the Victoria at e ery available opportunity. Credit will be given for continuous attendance. 6. Girls are requested to walk back and forth before the parlor doors and stare at anv man who happens to be calling. You might never get a chance to see a man again, and besides, it makes him feel important. 7. Be absent whenever con enient; it reliexcs the faculty of over-work.
