It tends to improve the disposition of the critics. If you forget to give an assignment, don't worry. The teacher will enjoy doing it after you leave. When you have a four o’clock conference, take your time going down the hill. You’ll need your good disposition when you meet your critic. Never work arithmetic problems before teaching. The children will work them for you. Don’t put your work on the board until time for class to begin. Give the children a chance to have a vacation as they do not get one when the other teacher is on duty. Do not waste time reading the suggestions given by your critics. Usually they denote a lack of appreciation for your excellent teaching ability. In writing your plans avoid using the outlines. They have served their purpose as practice work for the stenographer in the office. Before the end of the term give your critic an honest opinion of your own work. It may help to raise your grade. If you have followed these suggestions you may be certain of an “A”. Fifteen Top Row. Left to Right: Edna Green. Frank Le For, Cecil Clifford. Clyde Sutherland. Zora Fhlmister. Middle Row.

Forty’Hint in 1GH23II SCIENCE LABORATORY Learning How to Cook Fifty lUtfjlettcS C. O. BRADEN Athletic Coach and Physical Director Coach Braden came to the State Normal School at Dickinson the fall of 1924 from Kansas City University and immediately began constructing a more extensive athletic program. He opened athletic relations with all of the state schools within reach and turned out teams which were a big credit to the school. He has every man in school engaged in some phase of Physical Education and he has also kept in touch with the high school graduates of the Slope so that a great many of our best athletes have been attracted to the Normal through his efforts. If the Normal gets as much new material next year as we did this year, Coach Braden will have his team in the running for state honors. Fifty-tiro CLYDE SUTHKKU.NU Captain •'Ilubby' Forward HAIIW � OD DO 13RING •nod Cent or Soon after the close of our brief football season the call was issued for basketball material and about thirty men reported. The Coach soon cut the squad down to about fif- teen men and later to twelve. Every one worked hard and was faithful in attendance at practice. For the first part of the season, both afternoon and evening practices were held. The basketball season this year was the most successful that the Normal School has ever enjoyed. A schedule com- posing the better High Schools of this section of the state and the Noimal Schools and Colleges that we could reach, was arranged and played with gratifying results. Next year we should have even a better team than we had this year if the members of the team who do not graduate, leturn for another year of school. Our team this year compares very favorably with the other Normal School teams of the state and .Jamestown FRANK (J. LeFOll PuBsy” Guft rd College. While we did not win from these schools, the scores were all close, and with a bit of good luck might just as well have been reversed. 1 he team was well supported by the student body and the “PEP” manifested was splendid. The cheer leaders, Richard Heaton and Dan Fitzloff, are to be complimented for the efficient manner in which they conducted the pep meetings and rooting at the games.

Football in the State Normal School at Dickinson is a new sport, this being the second year a team was ever organized. About fifteen fellows responded to the call of the coach the first practice and a few others were added to the squad later on. Most of the boys were inexperienced but they entered whole heartedly into the game and with time a good team could have been built, but cold weather in the middle of October called the season off and the pig skin and mole skins were laid aside for another year. One game was played with Glendive High School a few days after we were or- ganized. and we were defeated. A number of scrimmages were held with Dickinson high school but no real games were played. It will take a little time, but some of these days, FOOTBALL will be our lead- ing sport.

GIRLS’ ATHLETICS The girls of the I). S. N. have made a very creditable showing in athletics this year. During the fall they attended the regular Gym classes and went hiking. Aside from the regular class work during the winter a very good basketball team was developed. The girls played only four games but came out victorious in all of them. They defeated Hebron 28 to 13, Mandan Training School 15 to 6, Hebron 13 to 5, Dickinson High School 12 to 6. The lineup of the team was as follows: right forward, Emily Stark; left forward, Irene Geske; center, Alice Auner; right guard, Helen Frohlich; left guard, Mildred Kilmer. The substitutes were Bertha Heinemeyer and Isabel Kennedy. The team was ably coached by Mis. Vorachek. During the spring month the girls are busy with hiking, indoor baseball, and track. Fifty-seven MANUAL TRAINING DEPARTMENT RESULT Fifty-fight Hiterarp THE DICKINSON NORMAL A lady in a rose-red gown, Clowning the hill she stands; Her arms flung wide in welcome, Her eyes, patient and brooding Watching over the prairie; And over the undulating southern prairie, From the rolling hills to the east, From the scoria topped hills to the north, Out of the torturous valleys between the buttes, Her students come. To all is her welcome gracious And to each one, as he is able to receive, she gives; Then sends him back to his prairies, his hills, or his badlands To give as it has been given unto him. —Elizabeth Allison Sixty PROGRESS Who would have believed in November, 11 16, when tin people of North Dakota voted to establish a normal school in the southwestern part of the state, that In less than ten years one of the finest institutions in the state would he erected in Dickinson? And yet, that is the record of the Dickinson State Normal School. Ten years a fro. in 1916, the people voted to establish a normal school In this part of the state and Dickinson was selected as the most fitting location for the new school. That, and an appropriation of $20,000, was the Initial step towards the founding of this great institution. The Dickinson State Normal School was openrd in the summer of 1918 under the direction of Peter S. Horg. Superintendent of the Dickinson Public Schools. Although his administration was very successful the truly Herculean task awaited the arrival, in August. 11 18, of the newly elected president, Samuel Thomas May of Madison, South Dakota. He accomplished the tremendous task of organization and overcame the numerous obstacles which obstruct a new school's progress. His accomplishment was such that three years later the corner-stom of the first building was laid. The following year an appropriation was made for the main building and the heating plant. It is hard to describe the joy that accompanied the laying of the corner-stone of the main building in 1923. Likewise, it is hard to express the emotion that was experienced, when in the following year, the new building was substituted for the old. A similar advancement has been mad In the record of attendance. The enrollment has materially Increased from 222 for the year 1918-1919 to 705 for the year of 1921-1925, while that of next year promises to he still greater. The cooperation and the assistance of the people of Dickinson In helping to establish the school cannot be too highly commented upon. The beautiful sixty-seven acre tract of land that constitutes the campus will ever serve as n memorial to their munificence. With a development In the past that Is little less than marvelous, who can foretell the future of the Dickinson State Normal School? Sixty-one t THE FACULTY GOES PARKING by One Who Was There During the latter part of the Summer School of 1926 the faculty of the Normal suddenly decided that they probably had been working too hard and that they needed a long restful vacation. They got together quickly and sent a letter to the head of the school, saying, “Dear President: MAY we go to Yellowstone Park for a week's vacation?” His answer was SWIFT and brief: “You may if you will make it a scientific expedition.” Early the next morning a !ong line of cars could be seen jolting westward across the prairie. All wrent well until the Had Lands were reached when the occupant of the first car was seen to turn around and start back. When stopped and questioned by the others he answered, “Great Scott! I have forgotten those mental tests that I had in- tended to give to some Indians on one of the Montana reservations. You people go ahead but I’ll have to go back.” Again the procession moved forward in quiet and peace until th • eastern part of Montana was reached. Here one of the cars began to act like a Missouri mule and the securing of outside help became absolutely necessary. One of th? smaller members of the party, peering over the side of the car, saw this sign nailed over the door of a cabin along the highway: “M. Kline, mechanic and a help in time of trouble.” After a brief examination KLINEFELTER (Kline felt her) crank case and said, “She’s over- heated, you’ll have to stop a while and cool 'er off.” This cooling off process accomplished, the cavalcade again moved on until it had arrived in the neighborhood of Billings, where a Crow Indian was seen perched along the roadside intently working at something. One of the wives exclaimed “Oh! see that Indian BRADEN that beautiful belt from strings of beads.” Another lady said, “Yes, let’s PARKER here while I buy some of those equisite blankets for my home.” ‘ I should judge,” said the first husband, “that your Indian is more in need of physical training than our money for his curios.” “I can’t agree with you there,” said the second one, “I believe that he should eat more meat.” At Mammoth Hot Springs, the first thing of interest in the park from the Garden entrance, a young rabbit was seen hipping about sniffing at the warm water that trickled down over the rainbow colored terraces and one of the members of the party, inspired by the beauty of the scene, burst out into poetry: O’HARE what art thou smelling? Go to school and improve thy spelling. This outburst encouraged another member to become poetical, for she had just seen a bee buzzing about among the daisies: “BUSBEY (buzz bee) and gather your honey, For all the days will not be sunny.” Just beyond the hot springs the road winds thru some strange rock formations and between the towering yellow stones of Golden Gate. Here one of the men, who is Sixty-two k. U ,XT very much interested in the earth, its size, shape, composition, etc., burst out, not into poetry, but about poetry and said, “MEWALDT (may Walt) Whitman and all the other natuie poets live and sin : forever.” Along the west side of the park there is a great forest of evergreens called Chiistmas Tree Park. While driving thru this one of the boys exclaimed, “Gee, dad, look at that there big robin.” That brought a smile to the faces of the occupants of the car, and one of them hastened to answer,44 ROBIN SON (robin son), that's not a robin. You must be careful of you English as well as your zoology.” A little faither on the party came to the region of the paint POTTS, where there is a continual boiling and seething of varicolored muds that bubble and splutter as if they were being prepared for some school girl's complexion. That night they stopped at Old Faithful Camp and slept soundly despite the hourly grumbling and roaring of that famous geyser as he shoots millions of gallons of water and steam 150 feet into the air. Some time during the wee hours of the morning a big grizzly bear came prowling around the camp and, upsetting one of the tents, helped himself to some of the bacon and honey. This aroused one of the young ladies, whi had been occupying the tent. She was so frightened that she threw up her hands and exclaimed, “OH, GRISWOLD (griz would) thou just as soon eat some of the people and leave the food so that we can get back to Dickinson?” This so surprised the bear that he ambled off to another tent and sampled some of the supplies found there. One of the things that he bit into was as bright and shiny as a dollar and the next morning one of the young men had trouble with his broken watch and said, “This ceitainly is a “HARD INGersol to wind.” He did not know it but the bear had bitten thru the mainspring, but this could easily be fixed in the manual training department at home. It is the custom during the SOMERS (summers) for a great number of college students, that are not propeily chaperoned, to visit the park. While driving along the shore of Yellowstone Lake, that superb jewel of sapphire set high up among the rough and rugged peaks, this bunch of pedagogues from the Normal encountered such a bunch of students and listened with interest to their peculiar college yell: “What in the heck? Why in the heck? Rah Rah Check. VORACHEK!” This yell was accom- panied by a weird kind of calisthenic drill, something like an Indian war dar.ce. Going along the east aide of the park the road climbs over Mt. Washburn. As the wonders and magnificence of the park unfolded to view one of the ladies, gieatly im- pressed by the beauty and magnitude of our country, began to sing a patriotic song, which extolled the grandeur of our country and the greatness of our presidents from Washington to Coolidge and the bravery of our sons from Jackson to HARRISON. Although the time for returning to work had almost airived there was yet one more place that could not be missed and that was Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River. This supremely beautiful piece of nature’s handiwork awed them into a reveren- tial silence until one of the men broke it by exclaiming, “Say, this certainly is PURTEE.” Sixty-threc mi PRAIRIE 5M0KE INSTRUCTORS’ FAVORITES The one who invariably enters class five minutes after the last bell.

The Council is composed of the three officers of the Longue together with the officers of the various subdivisions of the organization. The Women’s League is the one organization in the Normal School which considers every girl student and Instructress an active member. The purpose of the League is to train its members to give true service, not only in school hut in Inter life. Cooperation, loyalty, help, and sacrifice, in fact all of the things which the word ‘‘service implies are exemplified In the work of the Women's League. Without this organization tin social life of the girl students would not be held up to tht' ideal that It now is. The “Big Sister Movement is for the purpose of welcoming new students and giv- ing them a chance to become acquainted with all the League members. Every year the Women’s League gives parties and dances at which every one Is assured a good time. No school Is complete without an organization sueh as the Women’s I ague. THAT “HALLOWEEN MASQUERADE” “And the goblins will get you If you don’t watch out!” In the corridors, and class rooms and even in the study hall, when the “Eagle Eye’’ was not upon them, well-known groups of stud nts gathered to gossip about the coming grent event. That air of mystery enshrouded the whole school until you could fairly hear the goblins dancing in every nook and corner. Ah. at last the evening arrived, and It was Indeed a memorable one. The music. In- viting and bewitching, made the dancers fairly float over the floor. Vou should have seen them. Farmers and their wives, cowboys, gypsies, washwomen, clowns, and dear little Scottish girls, all danced their merriest that night. At ten o'clock came the order to unmask, and then, Ob, so that was you.” or, ’’Well, I’d have known you any win re. Vou can’t fool me, Old Timer.” The last was said of Julius Tcsch. It Is told. How quickly time files when ghosts and goblins make merry. All too soon the orchestra jazzed out. “Show Me The Way To Go Home,” and we departed—and now It’s all a memory. ST. PATRICK’S PARTY One of the most successful parties of the year was given by the Women's League on Wednesday evening. March 17. All Irish A-l students were present. No doubt a few of the others were there also, or perhaps, tin number of brilliant stunenls in the D. S. N. is larger than one would think. However, no one ever heard how these same students fared in the final exams which were held the next day. But it goes without saying that every Irishman’s heart was cheered by the fine program given at the beginning of the evening’s frolic. Following the program came the dance. Was there ever an Irishman who did not danceV Then do not ask if every one bad a good time, not only for the above reason, but also because of the fine lunch which was served In grand style at the close of the evening’s enjoyment.

Danc- ing and games were the diversion of the evening. Housekeepers were distinguished by paper cut-outs of kitchen utensils worn as badges. The party was both a social and financial success. The proceeds were used In buying the American flag and standard.

THE FORUM This firs! debating society of tin Dickinson State Normal had a very insignifi- eant beginning when, in October, 11 2;� . .lamestown College challenged our school to a de- bate on tin child labor question. This challenge was accepted a ml a number of students responded to the call for volunteers. These students formed themselves into a society called “The Forum.” In the meantime, the normal schools of the state decided to form a debating leugue for the purpose of holding a series of debates on the child labor question. Mathias IjcKor of the Dickinson State Normal has the honor of being the first president of this organisa- tion. which Is known as the North Dakota Forensic Association. The question for debate this season was: Resolved That The Child Labor Amend- ment to The Constitution of The I'nited States be Adopted. The affirmative was supported by Frances Simmons, Karl Olson, and Frank LeFor, with Mrs. Robinson as coach. The negativi was supported by Richard Heaton. Flora McDonald, and Mathias LeFor. Miss Rusbcy coached the negative team. The schedule was as follows: D. S N Negative vs. Jamestown. March 20 (lost): D. S. N. Affirmative vs. Minot, April D (won): and D. S. N.

The Dickinson Teacher was the name of this publication then, but in 1925 the name was changed to the Slope Teacher. This change was made because it more clearly repre- sented the territory in which the school is located. The aim of the Teacher is three-fold: first, to bring the students into closer rela- tionship with affairs concerning the Normal; second, to promote the best interests of the school; third, to keep an open line of communication between the alumni and their school. The piesent staff was selected by a committee of students and instructors. The people who compose this staff have devoted much of their time and effort in making this paper a success.

It began with a very small membership but has increased rapidly since that time. There ar«‘ now about 4oo members, many of whom have graduated from more than one course. The president, of the Association at the present time Is Mrs. Charles David of Dickinson. This association meets for an Alumni banquet once a year for the purpose of further- ing tin spirit of unity between tin successive classes and nurturing the common love for their Alma Mater. Last year the number that attended the banquet was particularly phasing. Every class that has graduat� ' l from the school was represented. The spirit of the association Is very good. Below is a summary of the Alumni of Dickinson State Normal School. This bit of research stands for much ltdious labor. If we have erred, please overlook, because we have used our every means to make this an accurate account. We have made a list of all the alumni with their present addresses. Space will nut permit us to give them all here. The list is. however, placed on file in the office of the school for tin use of the alumni and anyone interested.

If left alone it could not live. The beginning of the business of the J. C. Penney Company was a piecarious one. It passed through many moments of uncertainties. But it was never left alone. Its greatest nourishment was derived from the brand of service its founder gave to the public. It served best by giving only worthy goods for the least possible money. Fed upon this tonic it eventually grew into a live, rapidly-expanding business. The same service governs its operations today as then, but the strength of this seivice has been notably increased.
