CRAWFORD With the development of the school as a vocational institution for thc training of teachers, the Training School, in which thc students obtain actual ti-:aching cx' perience, is becoming the center of school activity. The organization is still in si state of development by which the various related courses are hcing brought into closer contact, forming a more effective working unit. Technique. ihc lncilioils in teaching, Observation, the watching of the procedure in :i schoolrooni situation: and Teaching, the guided practice, the. actual experience, :irc integral parts: hui contributing more and more are the methods, the philosophy, and thc suhjcct matter obtained in the other departments. Just as the Training School Department is cndczivoring to train the Normal students for the best possible service in the communities to which they go, so it is also endeavoring to give the best possible advantages to the children in the 'l'r:iin- ing School. There are two all-school activities, the asscnihlv :ind the Junior Messenger. Typical of the spirit of the school asscnihly was the 'l'li:inksgiving program in which every grade had an active part. The Junior Messenger staff is composed of eighth grade pupils, with reports assigned to the other grades, who gather the contributions. Selections are made so that thc paper will give :in inter esting account of the type of activities being carried on in the grades. Particiileirlv noteworthy is the interest of the children and the great amount of the rcsponsihiliii' which they take in the planning and developing of thc projects. u Twenty-two V v 5 i . Education ' MILLER, KIBBE, KEELER, KOLSTAD, SALISBURY Work of the Department of Education is focused sharply on needs of pros- pective teachers. While practical at every point, at the same time the attempt is made to develop concepts that will constitute a progressive philosophy of education. Students are expected to develop that attitude of mind in which they think through the situations presented to them and see their relation to the schoolroom needs. The Work Which the department covers may be classed under four heads. Educational Psychology includes instruction in elementary psychology, courses in the specific problems of childhood and of adolescence, and electives covering such material as the psychology of the subjects and applied psychology. History and principles of education covers the field of philosophy and the history of education both in America and of the World in general. Administration and measurements offer' a wide variety of practical material dealing with school law, school manage- ment, educational measurements, and more specific school problems. Individual study may also be undertaken. In all courses the student is brought into contact with the most progressive educational ideas and the best authorities on educational subjects. The Work is closely correlated with the work of the Training School with its practical illustrations. Twenty-tho'0e .,..............-.ii . - English cmd Speer: 1 FOWLER, SPERRY, HUSSEY, EDENS, VAUGHAN, HQPPE, MADDEN The General Literature course is one of the new first-year requirements of the revised curriculum. The course continues throughout the year, with study of. :i different literary period each quarter. The divisions are the Aneient Period. Wllll such works as the Bible, Homer and Greek mythology studied: the Middle Period. of which such authors as Goethe, Chaucer, Shakespeare, and Moliere :ire represens tativeg and the Modern Period represented by Hugo, Emerson, Ilisen, Tolstoi. Whitman, and others. The general aim of the course is to faniiliurize the students with some of the dominant literary personalities and their produetions of :ineient times and the present day. Besides the methods courses, the department offers :i wide range of eleetiyes covering, the various types of literature: the drama, essay, short story. :ind the novel, aswell as courses in poetry, such as Browning and Sluxkespmire. :ind eone- temporary writers are given. Elementary and advanced news writing courses are open to students who have had suitable training in writing and who are especially interested in journalism. Practical work is done in connection with the Wleekly Messenger :ind the Klipsun. Under the Division of Speech numerous courses are offered in voeril training and .dramatic interpretation. Wllile Fundamentals of ilixpression is the only requirement on this side of the department, interesting courses in :ulyaneed work lncludmg presentation of plays are given. Debate, one ot' the important student activities, is sponsored here. Twenty-fofm' Librcrrg WlLSON, GEORGE, FUNKHOUSER, NELSON The Library is a growing one. Al- ready considered the finest profession- al library in the Northwest, it is con- stantly being increased by the addition of new volumes. These new books are discriminately chosen with a view of offering the students the best and most comprehensive material ' possible in all fields of literature. While books of educational history, philosophy and methodfpredominate, it is the belief of the library administration that therex- tensive background obtainable by wide reading, in all the other branches is invaluablelin the training of the pro- gressive teacher. A very complete I re-ference library and periodical room' are maintained and are at the disposal of the students. The Juvenile Library, conducted in connection with the Training School, is most valuable in the actual contact which the students have with- a chil- I dren's library under working condi- l tions. The children find the Library a source of worthwhile interest and l . much reference work is done through it. IN THE .JUVENILE LIBRARY I Bureau of Research I SALISBURY, KOLSTAD The Bureau of Research is organized as a service bureau to the school. A division by itself, it is endeavoring to aid all the departments. During the year the bureau has undertaken work that has served the administration, the faculty, and the students. Data was gathered and prepared for presentation to the state legislators, and a Teaching-Rate scale devised. While these were more directly administrative, the Intelligence and Achievement tests given under the direction of the bureau and the developmentof a grading system are closely related to faculty and student activity. Objective tests, necessary in an institution of this size, are being devised by the members of the faculty and a chart is being adopted by which the scores made in the tests can be related to ability so as to give an index of the quality of effort each student is expending. The Bureau is also endeavoring to assist the student by individual guidance. Intelligence and achievement tests were also given in the Training School and the results used with other data in deciding placement. A more elastic, and therefore more effective, grading scheme was devised. Twenty-five THE ORCHESTRA MEN's DOUBLE QUARTETTE WOMENS DOUBLE QUARTETTE Music SLAWSON, NEWDALL.

Courses in elementary woodwork, cabinet work, advanced cabinet work, wood finishing, elementary mechanical drawing, advanced mechanical drawing, architectural drawing, and industrial arts methods are offered for those students who wish to teach in the upper grades and the high schools. The Industrial Arts courses are organized to meet the specific needs of those students who are preparing themselves to teach this subject, although many stu- dents in other department of the school selected one or more of these courses as electives. The department emphasizes a careful study of tools, operations, materials, and processes that are used in providing the daily needs of life. To this end typical units are worked out to give the student an appreciation of the materials and processes that are used in supplying man's needs for food, clothing and shel- ter.

Twenty-efighL L Foreign Language BEARDSLEY k I VVhile recognizing and emphasizing as ever the cultural value of the study' of Foreign Languages the general trend of the times is being followed in mapping out definite routes in the work in order to attain definite results. Prominent among the courses offered are those' in Phonetics for the training of the muscles in voice placing and' in acquiring an accurate, pronunciation by observing fixed rulesg the Phonograph for training the ear and the understanding and as an aid in acquiring the proper rhythm in perfecting pronunciation, a course in Verb Review for the purpose of systematizing and unifying the grammatical work previously taken. These are all 'tools necessary to train the ear, eye, and understanding of one who would really study a language. . ' This work is followed by a Rapid Translation course for those who would sacrifice an appreciative study of the language to the ability and power to grasp quickly and easily the thought of foreign texts, by Literature Courses taken for their cultural value to give first-hand insight into the sources from which our most gifted writers have drawn their inspiration and ideals, and by courses in Composition and Conversation with some one of the tourist cities as a background. The Social Science Department T l VVILLIAIVIS, BEVER, HUNT, ARNTZEN, LAWSON The Social Science Department is attempting to contribute to the best of its ability toward the goal of efficient teacher-training not only as a department, but each field within its scope believes it has some distinctive contribution to make to the cultural and professional life of the teacher. The field of history, under the guiding principles of continuity and development, gives an intelligent understand- ing of those human activities, decisions, and achievements which lie behind our present-day institutions- and problems. The field of sociology throws a clear light upon the aim of education by pointing out that human nature is second nature socially acquired, and illuminates the methods of education by the study of the effects of social contacts. The study of political science seeks to develop in the student, and to enable him to impart, a sense of individual rights and responsibili- ties as a citize-n and a 'realization ofthe significance of, and respect for, law as a means of social control. Geography makes its contribution by giving an under- standing of earth conditions and ,natural resources as a material basis of social de- velopment, by showing relationships which exist between natural environment and the distribution, characteristics, and activities of man. The distinctive contribution of economics to the school curriculum is the understanding it gives of the processes by which we get a living. Living together within a democracy will be furthered if the people contribute an intelligent part in the guidance of its processes. This is the purpose of the study in this particular field. , At present the department's most distinctive offering is the nine-credit course in Introduction to Contemporary Civilizationf, This course, in conjunction with those in other departments, is an attempt to give a philosophy of life by surveying manis achievements in the fields of thought and action from earliest time to the present moment. Its aim' is to unify andhumanize the facts of life that will give an intelligent understanding of present-day civilization and its urgent problems.

Have you counted yourv calories to- day? Are you still overWeight?', -Such are the remarks heard in the halls since nutrition is a required course. ' While the aim of the Home Economics department is to teach health from the standpoint of foods, and to serve good food through the cafeteria, it still gives courses in clothing and cookery which may be taken as electives in the second year of the grammar-grade course or as a major subject in the third and fourth years. Practice teaching is also done in the Training School under supervision. 1 Tlairty-one I 1 l i GFFICE PRACTICE PENMANSHIP 'VYWNG Mathematics cmd Business Eclum1l'imz BOND, LOVEGREN, RICE.

Each man is encouraged to enter the right sort of athletic activity at least once a day. To this end a Wide variety of courses is offered: gymnastics, gymnastic terminology, ap- paratus, corrective gymnastics, organization and administration, swimming, tennis, football, track coaching, theoretical boxing and wrestling, a Scoutmaster's course, and school athletic activities. Physical Education Women SKALLEY, FRANK, VVEYTHMAN Physical training, recreation, swimming and athletics are woven together in the Work of this department. Every student in school is engaged in some form of physical education each quarter. Six quarters of this work is required of all students for graduation, the required courses being elementary physical education, elementary folk dancing, plays and games, swimming, school room gymnastics, and festival dancing. Other courses offered are advanced physical education and sport, sections in volley-ball, baseball, basketball, hockey, and track.

MRS- DE YARMAN Secretary-Treasurer - . .. - IVIRS- DODGE The school records show that some students of advanced college rating have been enrolled in this school from time to time ever since it was established. In the earlier years all of these studentsqentered with advanced rating from other accred- ited colleges and universities, the law already providing, as it still does, that after a one-year course in this Normal school such students may be certified to teach in this state. Up to the present time no one has earned a four-year diploma from this school who has done all of his college work in this school. However, two, Arnold Kaas and Edgar Hannah, are now completing the four-year course with all their credits earned here. ' . The first advanced three-year course was authorized by law in 1909, and a four-year course was not provided for until 1920. Wliile an occasoinal three-year diploma has been issued in years past, it has not been until 1923 that advanced students have been much in evidence in the institution. Since 1923, however, sixty three-year diplomas and thirteen four-year diplomas have been granted, and at the present time fifty-two advanced students are enrolled in the school. Three definite advanced curricula are now being offered, and new major courses will be added in the near future. The curricula now provided are those in administration, junior high school, primary, intermediate, and rural. The classes organized for these courses are being limited largely to students of the advanced group in order that standards of scholarship commensurate to the advanced rating of the students may be maintained. N Under the sponsorship of Dr. Miller the college group has organized and elected officers. Several luncheons have been enjoyed during the year at Edens Hall at which business sessions were held and programs consisting of music and addresses, the latter delivered by President Fisher ,and Dr. Miller outlining the development program of the school and its practical purposes, were given.

'WARNER POYHONEN Klipsu-n Board Representatwes A DAISY HOWARD Messenger Reporter I - - - ROSE GRAY The Normal-by-the-Sea was founded twenty-seven years ago. Sincc that date there have been many classes worthy of note, but none will be longer remembered than the memorable Sophomore class of '25, We claim that we have nobly done our bit for our Alma Mater, not only in scholarship, but in dramatics, in athletics, in debate, in journalism, and in other student activities. lt does not necessitate a very close examination to show that a great majority of the students in prominent posi- tions around B. S. N. S. came from the ranks of the Sophomore class. Always a spirit of emulation will be incited in future classes at the sight of a certain cement block in front of the Normal boldly inscribed 1925. . VVe may pass on, but our work will live after us. Enough of this. Among the numerous admirable traits of a sophomore there is one prominent and inherent virtue-modesty. One of the most successful events of the year occurred January 23 when the Sophomore class gave a party. As usual, it was for the Sophomore class, and, of course, the customary postscript was attached to the notice: All the men of the school are invited. A very entertaining program. was given by some of the talented members. The novelty feature of the evening was an orchestra made up of a group of grotesquely dressed Soph bums.', Some of the melodious instruments featuring in the orchestra were combs, tin horns, a stringless ukulele, and an alarm clock. After the program dancing and games were enjoyed. There are innumerable memories which we shall always take with us: the Marathon, the Sophomore Sneak, Normalstad Day, hikes to Lost Lake, bonfires at the Rocks, swimming parties at Squalicum, evenings at Baughman's, and last but not least, our quarter of student-teaching with all its accompanying anxiety. All of this now lies behind usg but before us lies Home-Coming Week next year, and may it be a true reunion of the Sophomore classy At a meeting near the end of the .winter quarter the class voted to have the same officers for the remainder of the term. We were sorry to lose seventy gradu- ating members in Decemberq Because of this it was necessary to fill the vacancies of treasurer and Klipsun representative. . February 16 a meeting was held at which the matter of commencement announce- ments was discussed. After the business meeting the class was entertained by read- ings and music was given by individual members of the class. 1' H M . O K ipsun means sunset. The Sophomores are nearing the sunset of their davs at Normal, bllt the world is waiting for the sunrisef and the Graduates of the class of 25 will go out to strive to meet the needs that arise with the: new day.

' ' Then right merrily did the life in the castle of Bellingham Normal proceed. The lords and ladies did hold happy court, and each, regardless of his station in life, did partake of some form of mental labor and' settle down to prepare to take new lands and castles and add to his already growing store of riches. Inasmuchas there need be good order and discipline, it was decided that there be a chosen few to lead the Freshman class. Thereupon did these knights and ladies elect Sir Donovan Matheny, Lady Evelyn Hagen, Lady Margaret Chagberis and Sir Howard Wilder, and did also take for good counsel, thekgwise Sir on . 1 At last came the day in the fall of the year of 1924, A. D., when heralds did proclaim the first of the series of tournaments to be held, wherein many of the gallant-hearted would strive for the honors to be won. From far and near came participants, and to these jousts did the Freshman class send a goodly number to co-mpete 'for the honor of the Normal-by-the-Sea. Not only did the Freshman class send from among its ranks men of strength and skill to be victors on the football field, but also did they help to take honor and atrophy in basketball, debate, track and baseball meets. - ,Be it known that the fair ladies of the Freshman class did take themselves to the lists. and yell right heartily for their knights, and the knights no matter what jousts did they take part in, did carry their school colors of Blue and VVl1ite upon their sleeves, and in their hearts as well, with courage and fair play. All this while the knights and ladies of the class did work on and on right heartily and cheerfully, and hailed with pleasure the ball given by them on February 28, 1925. Came here the Freshmen in splendid dress and attire to par- ticipate in dancing, partake of sparkling punch, and enjoy much well-won pleasure. Decorations of green, and soft shaded tapers did lend artistic atmosphere to the surroundings and the ball did take place in the Bdens Hall Castle, well known near and far. During the course of the eventful year did the Freshmen contribute much toward the musical and dramatic ability of the school. Freshman talent did much to support various productions. Be it also known, that the gentle ladies of the Freshman class did take themselves out into the field of glory unafeared and entered the W. A. A., where they did right heartily prove their valor. The Messenger and the Klipsun were managed and edited with the help of members of the first year conquerors. Be it known that the Freshman class 'did have representatives in every activity sponsored by the Castle of Bellingham Nor- mal and right merrily did they respond to every whit of work put upon them.. . Being right wealthy in sportsmanship, enthusiasm, spirit, .and great possibili- ties, the lords and ladies of the Class of 26 did make an historical success of their first year in the well-won stronghold of knowledge, and right heartily- do they extend their sincere thanks to the other inhabitants of the Castle and to the most ' . . f faithful and good-willed faculty that helped tl1C111 to Progress along the Way 0 l ' '. eamdgllg ' h 1 d d l dies of '26 accept the best wishes given them by the C kmg ts' or S an 3 t' nd wish on Class of '25 for success and happ111CSS, and Pass that Same gree mg a ' to the class that will start its siege in a year to COIDC- Sevenly-one rudifions 0, Spirit of Bellingham Normal, Open for me, I pray, The doors of the Past.

The Kline-Cup. contest started in 1904 when Mr. Kline, a Bellingham Jeweler, offered a silver cup to the class whose girls, basketball team should win the championship of the school. At the time there were six groups competing: Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, Senior, Junior advanced, andLSenior advanced There are no longer Junior and Senior advanced groups, but the contest is still held. The numerals of the winning class team are engraved on the cup. ARBOR DAY , On Arbor Day we plant new shrubs and trees along Huntoon Drive up Sehome. Each organization within the school takes special care of those shrubs and trees for which it is directly responsible. VIKING VODVIL Each year in the spring quarter the students put on a vodvil. This consists of a number of the best stunts', chosen from those offered by Independents and by the various clubs. This is called the Viking Vodvil. THE ALL-SCHOOL PICNIC In lNIay comes the all-school picnic. It may be at Glacier, over on an island, up at Normalstad, or at any one of the many attractive spots near here. This picnic is noted for its large crowd, for the eats, and for the jolly fun. THE MARATHON Some time during the spring quarter the students and faculty put on hiking clothes and start for the top of Chuckanut Mountain. There they write their names and the time of their arrival at the top in a book provided for the occasion. At the end of the day the names are counted. The group, class or faculty having the largest per cent to reach the top is awarded a silver cup with engraved numerals. . The Marathon was started in 1909 when the Bellingham Herald offered a silver cup to the man who could start from the Normal and run to the top of Chuckanut and back in the shortest time. As this was found too difficult an undertaking, the Marathon was changed in 1910 to class and faculty competition. Running is no longer required, but the hike varies in form from year to year. One year the students met at the Normal and went in a group. At times classes go together, and at one time the contest clcsed at sun-up. The Marathon is one of the big events of the school year. SNEAK DAY Sophomores take one day in the spring for pleasure only. Under cover of great secrecy, these wise students leave their books wherever they may be and set out for greener pastures, thus giving the faculty an opportunity to devote all of their time to the Freshmen. BURIED TREASURES On Class Day the Sophomores put the class roll, a list of their officers and faculty advisors, a Klipsun, and whatever else they may decide upon, in a tin box which they bury with much ceremony under the walk in front of the main building. The cement which has been cut out of the walk in order that the box may be placed under it is replaced with new, and the class numerals arc cut in the new cement. This is one of the oldest traditions of the Sophomores and is followed by every graduating class. Seventy-five N Let the picture pass, O Spiritg Close well the doofs. Let it pass.

H HANNAH, LOREE, KATTERLEE. BOND, BOND, MARQUIS, Hoccome. GRAY, MARQUIS DAISY HOWARD Board of Control The Board of Control which held its first meeting during the summer session was wom- posed cf Daisy Howard, president, lflrlgar Hannah, vice-president, Vivian Holcomb, Pauline Hutchinson and 'Warner Poyhoncn, student representatives, and Miss Gragg and Mr. Marquis, faculty representatives. During the following two quarters, Constance . Markuson and Guy Bond were elected stu- dent representatives to take the places of retiring members. The Board of- Control has had this year an opportunity of sponsoring many plans for general improvements along the line of student activities. New regula- tions have been made for the maintenance of the Students' Cooperative Bookstore. An Art Council and an Editorial Council were created for the purpose of co- operatinng with the editor of the Weekly Messenger. The Klipsun was placed upon a new basis. Two new honor societies, the Scholarship Society and the Leadership Society, were launched. A new policy was adopted for the ad- vancement of athletics, both women's and men's. Aside from the foregoing achievements, the Board has been active in provid- ing social good times for the student body at large. For example, a new summer social project was launched under the name of Campus Capers. This is to be an annual event and is in the nature of a carnival without the usual tolls being ex- tracted frcm the pockets of the students. It is an all-school affair in which all students and faculty members participate. Gther memorable social affairs have been the all-school mixers at the Armory and the Christmas program and tree in the auditorium. For a week before the Christmas activities the halls were deco- rated with greens and bells, creating a festal atmosphere of the mcrricr season. Throughout the year the Board of Control has worked in entire harmony of deed and purpose to do the best possible for the greatest number possible.

The first number Was pub- lished in small magazine form in 1889, when this institution was known as What- com State Normal school. It was issued only once each quarter. In 1903 the size of the paper was increased and it appeared as a monthly publication until 1916. It was issued weekly then in a four-column eight-page form. The year 1923 stands out in the history of the Messenger for it was then that its present six-column, four-page form Was adopted. During the past year, with the aid of the Editorial Council, many improve- ments llave been made in make-up as Well as in the quality of the copy. Eighty A MEN ENHALL HIBNER f BLACK 4 HIBNER GRAY EAMING APPLETON Editorial Council of the Messenger Since its creation last November the Editorial Council of the Messenger has made its existence felt through the school paper. The first accomplishment of the Council Was the formulation of a policy for the paper which was later adopted by the Board of Control. The policy of the Messenger is: QU To bring students into closer relation with the affairs of the school Qaj by affording an op- portunity for the expression of student ideas and Qbj by presenting all of the school newsg Q25 To promote the best interest of the school at all times. The Editorial Co-uncil Was organized during the fall of 1924+ when, because of the rapid growth of the paper, the Work necessitated the assistance of com- petent help in make-up and copy reading. To meet the needs it was decided that a body of four experienced people should be organizedfor that purpose. Those elected to the Editorial Council Were Margaret McR0bert, Catherine McGuire, Rose Gray and Bertha Hibner. 'Later during the year Milton Furness, Clare Mendenhall and Margaret Black were elected to fill vacancies on the Council. The Council has met Weekly with the editor to discuss problems on the editorial side of the paper. Besides reading copy and helping with the make-up N of the paper, the Editorial Council has put out the first issue of the ilessenger each quarter till the new staff has been ready for Work.

It is the policy of the store to serve the students by ordering books for classroom Work and by maintaining a supply of other articles for which tlu-rc is constant demand in student life. The Co-Op is especially active at the first of each quarter, when new books nrt- lu-ing purchased, or old ones are being exchanged. In addition to other services ri-mlm-cd, 'thc store offers opportunity for distributing student mail. All tunds. save a small amount kept for emergencies, are invested in new stocks and equipment, thereby enhancing the value of the store to the student body.

From thesnumerous men who applied for the position, Coach Davis was finallv selected. It IS evident now as the athletic season comes to a close that no mistake was made. Mr. Davis has worked hard to give to Bellingham Normal a most successful athletic year. He believes in hard, conscientious practice, and keen, clever play. He 1S a typical man's man and has gone far toward putting this school athletically on a college basis. STUDENT MANAGER - This is the first year that a regular athletic manager has been appointed. There was no hesitation in determining who this should be. Coach Davis and the Board of Control felt fortunate in getting Loree to manage the year's sports. Loree not only attended to the many duties of manager, but made friends with all the players and kept them in good spirits with his contagious smile. Every gameigof each sport was handled in a businesslike manner throughout the entire year. A A - ASSISTANT COACH Ralph J. Reed, who was assistant coach this year, has been a great help in all lines. Reed has attended Cheney Normal, Oberlin, Idaho, and the U. of VV., where he has picked up many ideas which he put into good use in his work with the various teams. Q ' INTRAMURAL SPORTS ' The year 1924-25 marked the advent of intramural sports in Normal's ath- letic program. This plan is being used in the majority of the larger colleges and normal schools throughout the country with unprecenteded success in opening a field of athletic activity for every man in school. The intramural sports program this year included basketball, horseshoes, handball, boxing, track, swimming and tennis. No letterman is allowed to enter a sport in which he has made his letter, a fact which equalizes the competition in each sport, and encourages those of lesser athletic ability. . r During the intramural basketball season, nine teams competed, with the Philos finally winning the beautiful 14-inch loving cup presented by the mens athletic department. . ' This spring over a hundred men are participating in tennis, handball, horse- shoes, track and swimming. The ten men who are most successful in these sports will have their names engraved on a loving cup presented for this purpose. Practically every ma.n in school took up boxing, which was managed by 'Wialt Kelleyg in fact, so keen was the interest that the big event for the men during the winter quarter was a smokeless smoker. ly i 1 Swimming was managed by Guy Bond at the ,Y.

Nfnefy-one Football Season 1924 '1'i..-i-.- are it-w minor colleges that have gone forth with a football program N C B' V d XVhite s uad this season Coach Davis called that is equal to that of the fue 311 q ' the squad togt-tlier two weeks before school opened. Twenty of the forty men who respoiulifil to this call were awarded sweaters at the close of the season. From the first turnout until the last game, practically every man stuck to the squad, which ihfnionstratetl the loyalty and spirit that nothing can whip. The st-hedule was made without discrimination, with the result that every game played was a real hazard to minor college championship. Two non-conference gaiiit-s with the Lf of W. Frosh and the Super-Varsity were lost. However, the fans wt-rr given a real treat in seeing Tesreau with his educated toe perform for the l I'Usl1, and Patton, the star half-back who was Wasl1ington's main defense in the Washington-California game, get a real work-out on Waldo field when we tangled with thi- Super-Varsity. Non-conference games with the O. A. C. Fresh, Pacific U., :incl tht- Lf S. 5. Mississippi were called off by representatives of those teams, with the ri-sult that the nine-game schedule which had been planned was shortened. Cooper-ation within the squad, real unified teamwork, unfaltering loyalty to the school and the coach, together with tl1e unprecedented support of the student body and faculty, lifted the boys into that spirit which overcame all obstacles and se- uiircd tht-in the minor college championship. Om- of the outstanding features of the team's work was the fact that the super- Yarsity was the only team that made more than one first down against the Vikings. T,lh-nsburg and Cheney were unable to make a first down once during the entire ganu-. In the first two games of the season Seattle College and St. Martin's gave so little opposition that in the Frosh game the men had hardly hit their stride. The ri-sult was that the Frosh beat a team that late in the season could have held them to ai inuch closer score. The squad showed improvement until at the end of the season a brand of football was displayed that was finished in every respect, i I l i 1 4 L A 1 4 J ii. r----M .Y...,, Nizz c1'y-tmp Prospects for next year look b ' ht '1 planning to return.

A 1 Your readiness to keep physically fit has not only resulted in a personal compensation but in honor which you have brought to this school. The added drive and vigor 'gained by those who trained has enabled them to bring a contribution in real manhood to our student body. Moreover, I esteem the spirit of the man on the bench who, knowing he may never earn his letter, gives himself unsparingly that the team may not falter. , I appreciate the contribution of each and every L ' man in making this year so pleasant and so full of hu- man interest that it cannot be forgotten. -Elwood C. Davis. Basket Ball Season The basketball season was unusually successful this year in spite of the fact that the original schedule, which included the University of Vllashington, the Uni- versity 'of Idaho, and other schools of similar caliber, was curtailed in an effort to economize. 1 The three losses for the entire season were inconsequential considering the fact that the men had never played together before as a team. During the season they ran up a total of 571 points against their opponents' 364 in the seventeen games played. The boys were noted for their clean playing, proof of which is found in the fact that only once did a man go out on fouls during the season. They developed machine-likelunity and smoothness of action which characterizes veteran teams, As We look back over the season We think of these boys as Working hard and svillmgly, With that unceasing determination to uphold the invincible spirit of the Viking. They leave an enviable record. Ninety-three Xin ety-fn zz 1' ARTHUR DUKE--',rDZll66,, When it came to aggressive guarding with ability to gain points, Duke was there with the goods.

It is to be regretted that a lack of funds limited our schcilulc. Starting off thc season with a dozen practice tilts, the boys rapidly developed into :i ti-:nn of college caliber. The first scheduled game was With the University of Washington varsity, who defeated us 4-3. The next day Seattle College succumbed fu cur :ihifity to hit the old apple. The score was 9-44. Then came the University of Washington lfrosh, who were forced to retreat with the small end of a 3-1 score.

A remarkably keen interest has been shown in track this season. Some of the dlstance men started working out during the winter quarter. Each night during the season numerous athletes have been working out in the jumps, running events, and weights. 1 The sixth annual relay carnival at the University of VVashington held May 9 gave the relay team a chance to show its pace. In the medley event, Bellingham took second and forced the Frosh to a new track record of 6:38. On May 144, a dual meet was held with the U. of VV. Frosh at Seattle. The track team went to Ellensburg to compete in the tri-Normal meet on May 23. . NORMAL TRACK 192-L RELAY TEAM The Tri-Normal Track Meet, with the Bellingham, Cheney and Bllensburg Normals participating, was the main event of the track season. Cheney Normal was the winner of the meet by the narrow margin of one point. Bellingham Xor- mal's relay team, consisting of VVard Prigg, Clyde Cole, Dewey Bowman and Rd Hannah won for the school the permanent possession of the Relay Cup, by winning 5 the half-mile relay for the second successive time. Ed Hannah, Bellingham's sprint man, with 111,11 points to his credit, was the individual high-point man of the meet, and was awarded a gold medal. Hannah set a Tri-Normal record of 10 seconds for the 100-yard dash and 22.2 seconds for the 220-yard dash. Prigg of Bellingham was a close second in both events. All Tri-Normal records, with the exception of the broad jump, discus and 4-1-0-yard dash, were bettered. Nin vty-seven -M TIIE SUMMARY .First IUU-yarcl llasll ,.......,.. E.

FITZGERALD, LOOMIS, LEACH, GRANGER, BROADBENT I Tennis Tennis-is a popular spring and summer sport at the Normal. From the early hours of the day to sunset the courts are filled with students enjoying 'themselves at the royal game. Improvements in the courts, fences and nets, made last fall, are making it pleasant for those who wish to enjoy a pleasant recreation from studies. The winners in the annual tournament last summer were as follows: Men's Singles: Edgar Hannah. Ed played in the finals against Gordon Broadbent and won by taking two straight sets. Men's Doubles: Al Hannah and'Ed Hannah. They played in the finals against George Burlingame and Howard Nessen, and won in three straight sets. Women's Singles: Ruth Gill. Ruth played the finals against Frances VVel- lington. VVomen7s Doubles: Ruth Gill and Doris Turner. They played the finals against Mrs. Ed Hannah and Mrs. George Burlingame. Mixed Doubles: Ruth Gill and Warren Granger. They played the finals with Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hannah and won two out of three sets. In the men's singles, the ladder system was used. The first ten on the list at the end of the tournament were: 1, Ed Hannah, 2, Gordon Broadbent, 3, Al Hannah, 41, George Burlingame, 5, Don Tunstall, 6, Howard Nessen, 7, Harry Appleton, 8, Warren Granger, 9, Gail Hinthorne, 10, Ernest Keplinger. Tennis has been made a major sport in this institution and it is expected that inter-collegiate competition in tennis is going to arouse even greater interest in the sport.

One Hundred Three Basketball Wim thc beginnings of the yvinter qugfter the girls began turning out for basketball. MissbFrank coached the Sophomores and for the fI1011'Ch Of January Nlrs Foster coached the Freshmen. An average of thirty-five Sophomores and forty Ifreslimcn turned out for practice every Monday and VVednesday at four in the 'two ffvms. Bv the end of January we had really begun to' play basketball and a lot of good material in both classes was discovered. Miss Skalley came the first week of February and took over the Frosh. Finally the first squads from which were to be selcctedithe class teams, were chosen. These class teams are selected to compete for the Kline Cu J. The Kline Cup games are a series of three games played by the Sophs and Frosh teams each year. The class having the greatest number of points at the end of the series is allowed to have the class numerals engraved on the cup. This year competition was keen, as the Frosh were reported to have a strong team and the Sophs were eager to try them out. The first game of the series was played on Monday, February 23. Excitement was high, and the girls played a hard-fought game with the final score standing 17-14 in favor of the Sophs. Miss VVeythman refereed. The second game was even more exciting than the first. Of course, the Frosh were ready for revenge. They played an excellent game. and at the end of the first half the score stood 10-4 in their favor. The Sophs were not to be downed, however, and rallied their forces. Gradually the score became more even and for a few minutes seesawed back and forth-first the Frosh in the lead, then the Sophs ahead. VVhen the final whistle stopped play, the score was 19-19. This game, played March 2, proved to be the best game of the series. Miss Skally was the referee. The third game was, however, the most important one. With such a slight lead as three points the Sophs were on their mettle. The Frosh being equally determined to win put up a strong fight the first quarter, but the Sophs outplayed them and won the series by a score of 24-15, or a lead of 12 points. This game was played on Monday, March 9, with Miss Frank as referee. So the basketball season ended with the Sophomores in possession of the Kline Cup. Life Serving . In. the fall quarter of 1924-, a Life-Saving course was included in the advanced swimming classes. Having pas-sed the Beginners' and the Swimmers' tests, the next thing is to become a Life-Saver.

Although many poor souls have been illusioned into thinking that play is the major function of the school, the ,last vestige of such an hallucination has been ob- literated by the effective pruning and probationing of the scholarship com- mittee. Ask any one of the unfortu- nates. To most of us play comes with our work, but many of us do not realize itg therefore the purpose of this department is to bring back to all the memories that have arisen from the events in our social group during the past altogether too short year. The writer admits his inability to do this task full and complete justice, but he hopes that his humble efforts will in part serve to recall many pleasing memories. Recreation is provided for in many ways. lYe are situated in a region of wonder, but even in the school itself we have the weeklv Fri- day afternoon recreation hour, 'wfe have receptions, teas, formals, and student programs. lYe have our annual out- ings for the whole school: the Chucka- nut Marathon, Xormalstad Picnic, Sneaks, and the Austin Pass, Hanne- gan Pass, Mount Baker, and Blount O IW H 'll Il d re d S 5.1: Constitution hikes. How fortunate we are in being located so close to the haunts of nature! Our Campus Ca- pers and our Faculty Fun add much to the zest and zeal of Normal life. This fall when we returned to the big school house on the hill we met many strange faces. We had a mad hunt for rooms and boarding places. The strain of the registration jam left many maimed in disposition and in body. One boy actually fainted into a girl's arms. The fatalist would say everything happens for some reason, whether for better ,or worse. Cln this case it for the worseg the girl dropped himj After going to every show in town and wishing in vain for the Home-Coming' Normal-School dance we started on our studies for want of anything else to do. We needed some- thing to blow off steam on so we had our chance at the first All-Student mixer under the auspices of the Wom- an's League. RECREATION HOUR Every Friday rec marks the close of a strenuous week. In summer we have a recreation hour in the open for the fresh air enthusiasts and the week- ly dance in the large gym f01- those who desire it. Open air recreation is so popular in summer that about four games of indoor baseball-in-the-open are played at one time. Barnyard golf and volleyball rank along with the game of tennis and competition in the former is just as keen as in the latter. OCTOBER 3-ALL-STUDENT MIXER The men, women, and faculty of the school were invited to attend this func- tion. The school turned out en masse. One girl in her haste pinned her name on upside down. Followed a wild scramble on the part of the young men to read it. Pandemonium reigned and the Dean had to referee. The only other battle was the downhill struggle Mr. Marquis had with the cookies and tea. At five o'clock we all wiped our chins and the grand exodus ensued. OCTOBER 10-THE FIRST REC- REATION HOUR Don Marquis' shrieking clarinet was ably assisted by Chauncey Griffith on the piano, while Charles Rothweiler and Art boomed out with the saxo- phone and traps respectively. Every- one who could dance, danced, and those who could not, learned how. This event proved to be popular from the beginning, and its fame spread. The whole town was soon enjoying it. The rec is here to stay and the only re- gret that we have is that it lasts one short hour. It is a fitting close for the week. f OCTOBER 10-THE Y. W. C. A. RECEPTION Annually the Y. VV. C. A. of this school gives a reception to the entire school, both students and faculty. Un- der the able guidance of Frances Wen- niston the reception last fall was a great success. It served as a mea11S Of making many new acquaiI1t2l11CCS through the games and entertainment provided. Why have we such PIC-9dS313t memories of these receptions? B6- cause we always come away p1CaS6d with the fact that we have attend-Gd 3 'fformal reception and found to our Joy that it was delightfully informal. OCTOBER 1 7-FIRST ARMORY ' DANCE The seventeenth of October brought us the first associated student mixer to which all the members of the institu- tion were invited. The armory. was beautifully decorated with colored streamers, and the orchestra was all we could wish for. And wish we did, for it seemed ages before we could get past the formalities of a receiving line and a grand march. VVhen we finally did get a chance to dance we thronged the floor until Home, Sweet Home brought to an abrupt close a delightful evening that had been bare- ly begun. We expect to have more of these mixers. OCTOBER 25-WOMEN'S LEAGUE KIDPARTY The Kid Party is going to be long remembered by. those who went, be- cause of the fun they had, and also by those who didn't, because of the fun they missed. It was a hilarious scene of romping youngsters. Even Huckle- berry Finn was there with a fishin' pole and a stubbed toe. Miss Jones was there, too, but you never would have recognizer her in her short green paper dress and long curls. The chil- dren enjoyed themselves thoroughly from playing and dancing to cider and doughnuts. The prize fox-trot was won by Teddie Wilson and Marcella Lustermann-the prize was a bag of popcorn which was enjoyed by all. DECEMBER 19-CHRISTMAS PROGRAM During 'the last week of thefall quarter the halls were decorated in Yuletide colors. On Tuesday evening a Christmas program was given. All the clubs gave something very sugges- tive to Chrismas. Do you remember lllr. Newdall with his drum? Mr. Kibbe with his Sparky? Bennie Mitchell with his pup? Mr. Marquis with his horn? One Hun clrecl Seven .IANUARY 10--Y. XY. ALL SCHOOL PARTY Hard times were in evidence in UIC big gym. A delightful party was giv- .fn bv the Y. YV. C. A. for the whole school. liveryone turned out in his liumblest fashion, even Mr. Kibbe WHS there with a precarious lone suspender. The offenders that wore a tie or an ar- ticle of silk were fined. The treasury did not prosper and when everybody went home you may be sure that these poor souls didn't leave anything in the line of refreshments. JANUARY 2-L-EXCURSIGN TG BRITISH COLUMBIA On Saturday afternoon an enthusi- astic group of supporters left for Vancouver to see the basketball game between Bellingham Normal and the Lfnlversity of British Columbia. The team was victorious. The Canadians saw that we had a gcod time. They gave us three games, a dance, and a feed. During the afterncon we were shown about the city. The next trip is looked forward to. .JANUARY so-PEP RALLY A rousing pep rally took place the night before the Cheney game. The cheer leaders led the march and the party broke up with a peppy yell and a Let's Beat Cheney. VVe blew off so much steam that we lost the game. I E B R UA RY 1-L-VALE N TI N B'S DAY - Hearts were in evidence on Saint Valentineis Day, frcm the ace of hearts to the most gorgeous Valentine. The box on the landing was packed and surrounded by fluttering hearts. Those who didnlt get their expected hearts were furnished a crying room. The most severe cases ofthe day were Chuck VVeedin, Iliarner Poyhonen, Mil- dred Jennings and Mr. Hunt. They parted with their hearts, and didnit get any in return. FEBRUARY 28-FROSH PARTY The Ambassador orchestra of Taco- ma furnished the music for the Frosh Saint Pat.rick's dance which was held in the dining room at Edens Hall, The One Hundred Eight decoration scheme was well carried out and the committee that planned the dance saw that everyone was comfort- able and the floor not too crowded. This was the supreme social success of the Freshman Class of 1925. MARCH M-EDENS HALL SAINT PATRICK'S DANCE On Saturday night a delightful dance in honor of Ireland's patron saint was given. The cosmopolitan crowd ral- lied around the green in such a fashion that Jensen was McElhiney. The fa- vors happened to be the green-eyed snakes that Saint Patrick banished and the crowd was quick to note the anachronism. Finally all ate their snakes and Ireland Was saved again. History repeats itself. Erin go Brah! SATURDAY, JULY 19-ARMORY SAILORS' DANCE The Armory dance for the sailors caused the fluttering of many a heart at the Normal-by-the-Sea. The gobs came en masse, took the town by storm, left the boys on the fence, and showed our girls a grand time. To entertain the sailors a large dance was given for the edification ofythe girls and the mor- tification of the boys. A most wonder- ful time was had Qat least so the girls sayj and sometime when the boats come again the sailors will again be the guests. ' AUGUST 1 5-CAMPUS CAPERS The carnival that was staged on the Normal Campus last summer was the greatest spectacle and at the same time the most hilarious, joyous open air event on the calendar. Side shows, booths, and dancing featured this mid- summer frolic. The Gypsy fortune tellers revealed the future of the students and the fac- ulty. Past masters in the art of bark- ing tempted us into the various booths and side shows to view the sells.', But what did we care? We went out only to come in again and repeat the thrill. It was hard to tell which was most popular: the fantastically clad Gypsy fortune tellers, who told us all sorts of delightfully impossible things, the Sagebrush booth where everyone was given an aromatic sagebrush buttoniere tied with a silver ribbon and then was beguiled in to see the wildest animal that ever grew in the sagebrush coun- try, or Hell,s Hole, from which arose the shrieks of the damned and where one received a real thrill from shaking ghostly hands. The fact is there was a long waiting line before each of these places all evening. A RECREATION IN THE OPEN NORMALSTAD Normalstad, an eighty-acre tract of land lying along the south side of Lake VVhatcom, is the property ofthe Stu- dent Body of Bellingham Normal, hav- ing been bought with .Association funds. This beautiful playground with limit- less possibilities derives its name from a combination of Normal and Kolstad, Mr. Arthur Kolstad, a member of the Normal faculty, having been instru- mental in securing the property for the school. THE ANNUAL PICNIC ' One school day during the spring quarter is set aside for the regular Nor- malstad picnic. We go by street car to .Silver Beach and take a lake steamer for the journey up the lake, landing at our own dock built two years ago with Association funds. Or, if not enough boats are available for the entire crowd, and we like better to walk than wait for the boat's return, we leave the street car at ,Whatcom' Falls Park and hike out the three and a half miles to our desti- nation, or perhaps we go by auto. The remainder of the forenoon is spent clearing ground, for Normalstad is only partially developed, and the aft- ernoon is given over to sports of various sorts, the most exciting of which are the tree-climbing contests for both men and women, and the boat races. It might be mentioned that a box of candy is se- curely tied to the top of the saplings and that the first one up gets the candy. The boat races comprise singles, dou- bles, and mixed, if such terms may be used off the tennis court: races in row- boats, and races in Indian can06S and Eskimo kyaks. The cove around the bend gives us a beautiful natural re- gatta course which predicts strong in- tercollegiate crew competition in the not far-distant future. The rugged grandeur of the wooded slopes surrounding and enveloping the blue lake is appealing to all lovers of the out-of-doors. One can see on every side the beauty of the season and the glorious achievements that cap the handiwork. of nature. The Woodmanis axe has not demolished the surround- ing forests, and comparing Normalstad with any other part of the Northwest it is safe to say that Normalstad is unex- celled in natural beauty. A small space has been cleared near the Water of the lake and this is the site for the long- hoped-for lodge at Normalstad. Can we wish for a better place? ' PLANS FOR DEVELOPMENT Plans for the development of Nor- malstad include the building of a 339000 rustic lodge. This lodge will have three floors, including boat house, bowling alley, kitchen, caretaker's quarters, fire- place, locker-rooms, and a' large living rocm, '72x4f8, with an oak floor. VVith ample space for indoor recreation to suit the most aristocratic, and ample space for outdoor games to suit the most plebian barnyard golf fan, what more can be asked? , livlounfaineering at Normal The outdoor recreation program in- cludes many hiking and climbing trips the year around, but the grand climax to this side of recreational life comes during the summer quarter, however, in May of each year we have the CHUCKANUT MARATHON when the entire student body partici- pates in a Marathon up Mount Chuck- anut, with picnic lunch near the top. Students and faculty go in bevics, in groups, or singly. To the class which has the largest per cent of signatures during the day in the register kept for that purpose at the top of the mountain, is awarded possession of the Herald silver cup until such time as the Mara- thon is held the ensuing year. The Chuckanut Marathon many years ago passed into a tradition which is cher- ished by the entire school. One Ifunclrecl Nina MOUNT CONSTITUTION A favorite goal for picnicking excur- sionists is Mount Constitution on Orcas Island of the San Juan group. Some thirty miles distant by water, it affords an unexcelled opportunity for a com- bination of boat trip, a week-end of camping, fishing and clamdigging, to- gether with a climbing expedition. The party may camp near the beach at Olga or East Sound and make the as- cent from there, or they may have their headquarters at one of the lakes which abound with fresh water fish. The climb itself is simply a pleasant six- and-a-half-mil.e walk over a good road of gradual ascent to the rounded dome from which vantage point of five hun- dred feet elevation one has a superb view of the surrounding islands, towns, and the peaks and ranges of the Cas- cades, the Olympics, and -the Canadian Coast range. The climber finds his way bordered with wild flowers. If the month is May, June, or July, he is walled in by tall hedge-like thickets of pungent wild rosesg the pink-belled twin-flower car- pets his path, while lupine, larkspur and blue violets lend their note of deep blue to that of the sky and the water. One Iizuzflred Ten If the party prefer, the entire round trip and the climb may be made in one day, in which case one of the never-to- be-forgotten scenes of the return voy- age is the sunset! on the water and the islands as the boat glides homeward. MOUNT BAKER PREPARATORY For the culmination of the hikers' and climbers' paradisaic season, the ascent of Mount Baker, a long and interesting series of hikes and climbs is undertak- en. It includes semi-weekly hikes of from three to ten or twelve miles each, the shorter ones taking place from 3 to 8 p. m. on a school day, and the longer ones on Saturday. In addition there are tri-weekly individual climbs up Sehome Hillj Many places of beauty are Visited on the preliminaries: Lake Padden, VVhatcom Falls Park, Normalstad, Toad Lake, Lake Louise, State Park, Natural Dry Dock, Lost Lake and others. Next in order after these local places come the two preliminary mountain trips, the first of which is known as the Austin Pass Trip SKYLINE RIDGE VVe take auto stages to Glacier where we make our headquarters, camping on the banks of the Nooksack river. Three climbs may be taken from this base. Tl1at to Skyline Ridgeis perhaps the most interesting. The climb is preced- ed by a three-mile auto ride or a walk of that distance to reach the trail. The climb itself is five miles in length over a beautiful woods trail delightfully shady until the meadows are reached. All the ordinary, varieties of wild flow- ers common to this locality are found along this trail. The party that made the trip last summer passed through two or three miles of path bordered with the thick, glossy mat of the pink-belled twin-flower vine. At the meadows one finds the real mountain flowers of all colors and kinds, some of them peeping through melting. snow banks. When one has made the last steep ascent and arrives at the top, he is more than repaid for his pains by the breath-taking vision of surrounding snow peaks. They entirely surround the Ridge, and most of them seem of approximately the same eleva- tion. But there to the north is rugged Shuksan, grand old man of all the mountains, and to the east, seemingly only a few rods, but in reality several miles distant, looms our own Baker, gor- geous in the sunshine. No matter how many wonderful mountain scenes one may see later, he never forgets his first sight of the panorama from Skyline Ridge. A CHURCH MOUNTAIN To approach Church Mountain, the would-be climber gets a preliminary thrill by crossing the foaming current of the Nooksack river in a self-pro- pelledbasket attached to a cable. After a short walk he strikes the trail and makes the stiff five-mile climb up to, and over, the bare face of the rock to the very top of the mountain where he is rewarded by the same marvelous mountain scenery which prevailS throughout the Mount Baker district. AUSTIN PASS Only think of being able to snowball and to slide in the snow on a hot F0L11'fl1 of July! That is what the Normal crowd did last summer at Austin PaSS meadows. True, there was not very much snow, but there was enough to cool parched faces and throats, and to furnish some hilariously good fun. Not that the eight-mile hike to the pass was not also enjoyable, for it was. It was easy, too. At least four miles of it lay along a good roadbed, and after we left the road we traversed an interest- ing path through the woods until we came to the meadows. But it was hot! And that snow and the tiny silver threads of Waterfalls, and the little, sluggish, flower-filled brook trickling out of the snowbanks looked most in- viting. There Were lovely pools, too, lying clear and Warm in the sun, with the softest water in them one could im- agine. That is why some of us were glad to take off our hiking boots and wade. We had had occasional glimpses of mountain scenery along this path, and found more when we reached the meadows. Also, we had our first sight of mountain heather, three varieties of it, with its beautiful white, reddish pink, or cream bells. And while we rested or explored, Mr. Kolstad made the fin- est coffee to go with our lunch of sand- wiches and fruit. 7 We shall all want to go again this summer and see the changes wrought by the new automobile road and by the hostelry which has been built. HANNEGAN PASS QBy a Student Who Was Therej No one who can afford the time and money for such a trip as that to Han- negan Pass should miss going at some time. It was an adventure from be- ginning to end, filled with glorious scenery and many surprising thrills. We left the Normal at five-thirty Friday afternoon, July 25th. A few went earlier in their own cars. The rest of us, about twenty-five in number, were packed into a huge gray stage. Our blankets and baggage were thrown on top, and after we left town four of us girls climbed on top also. The scen- ery was typical of the mountainous coiintry we were approaching. Mount Baker and many smaller mountains were in View along the way. About half way to Glacier WC changed cars. There was one smaller stage and a large touring car. I found myself in the stage and rode the re- mainder of the way with my feet dang- ling over the side on the baggage. It One Lluzzdrcfcl Eleven I . yygggg gi I11r'1'I'X' CI'UV.'li I-Viifll Illiiiii' SOULQQS and jokes. lfvf-1-ylmdy was having a good time. U ill- passed through Glacier anil W6I1f on a short distance beyond Shuksan until we came to where the trail to lliillfltjgfilll Pass begins. Ifiverything was unloaded and Mr. Kolstad decided to spend the night near the road instead of hiking in three-quarters of a mile to Swamp creek, where Mr. Bond and those who had gone up earlier had camped. Ill- all unrolled our blankets and made ready for the night, when suddenly the word was passed around that we would go on in to Swamp creek after all. Somehow we managed to get our belongings together again and the packers loaded them onto the pack horses. Then Mr. Kolstadled the caravan with a lighted candle and we made our way slowly through the dark forest We got to Swamp creek eventually and Mr. Bond had a roaring fire with coffee and sandwiches ready for the travelers. lYhen our hunger had been satisfied we unrolled our blankets for the second time and made ready for the night. Mr. Bond put himself out, as he always does, to be everyone's special guardian on the entire trip. He found my part- ner and me the softest, mossiest place possible and helped us make our beds, after which he did the same for each of the others. I slept straight through the night without waking once, probably due to the fact that I brought a pillow with me. The others were all wakened dur- ing the night by the screams of a near- by eougar, which evidently did not 3.13- prove of his forest being invaded by such a host of human beings. I wish I could have heard it, just for curios- ity's sake, but I might not have slept well afterward. lVe were up as :soon as daylight came. Bacon and eggs, coffee and bread and butter were served for breakfast. BV five we were on the trail. Ive walked mile after mile, gradually upward, The trail led us along the sides of a canyon, through which Ruth creek tumbleduand roared. The day was remarkably clear, Every peak stood clearly outlingd against the sky. ive averaged about two miles an hour, reaching Hannegan Une III!-l1tfI'l'l'I Tzcolzvg Pass in five hours. About half way to the Pass we spied a large cinnamon bear across the canyon. We yelled and shouted and he lumbered clumsily toward us, but soon disappeared in the woods. The last three-quarters of a mile the trail rises nearly a thousand feet, making a good stiff climb. The Pass itself- is five thousand feet above sea level. Because of the mild winter last vear, the snow in the Pass was gone: Vlie found a good place for a camp a little distance farther where there was water, and built a roaring camp fire, preparatory to cooking din- ner as soon as the pack horses came up with the supplies. Anything tastes good when one has hiked ten miles, and we hungrily gobbled down the macaroni andlcheese provided for our noonday repast Qwhich would have been good enough at any timel. As soon as dinner was over, Messrs. Bond, Brown, Katterman, Elder and a number of others went fishing down the Nooksack river. Austin Bond as leader took a group' of us up on Goat Moun- tain. Often we were forced to crawl up the steep heather-covered hillsides on our hands and knees. Here and there we crossed patches of snow from which trickled little streams of water. VVe drank thirstily at nearly every one. At last we were on the highest knoll.. Rising high above the far side of the Pass was Ruth Mountain, and behind it loomed up old Shuksan, the most peril- ous of all the peaks. It is known to have been climbed only four times in all its history. To the south we got a magnificent View of Mount Baker and to the north Copper Mountain and the Saddle. A long high ridge connects Goat Mountain with Copper Mountain and wc carefully selected the safest-looking route down to the Ridge. The last half of the way we took sliding down a snowslide. There were only eight of us game for the longer hike. Wetrav- eled several miles along the top of the Ridge and then climbed Copper Moun- tain. An even more wonderful view could be seen from there. Not only all the former peaks were visible but others to the west, and the Canadian peaks to the north. Everywhere on the mountains are mountain-goat trails, and we were con- stantly on the lookout for some of the wary creatures themselves. At last our search was rewarded. Just as we reached the top of one of the highest knolls on Copper Mountain we saw two goats on a snowbank across the canyon. One of the fellows slipped around to try to get a picture. While he was on his way the mother goat and her little kid lay down under a snow- bank. Consequently the man who was going to take the snapshot frightened them before he di-scovered they -were hidden. They jumped up without warn- ing and rushed headlong down I the three-thousand-foot wall of the canyon. Without a break in speed they reached the bottom unhurt and ran on out of sight. As the windywas blowing from them to us, we had a good View of them for thirty-five minutes before they took fright. We returned to camp by.the same route until we came to about the mid- dle of the Ridge when we struck off to the left down an old torrent bed. We followed this down and down, slipping, sliding, and bruising ourselves until it seemed that we would never reach the bottom, when all of a sudden we came out on the forest rangers' trailabout three miles below camp. We had hard- ly started up the trail when the-fishers, homeward bound, caught up with US- One peep at their basket of Dolly Var- dens and we knew what our breakfast the next morning would consist of. We were all about ready-to drop in our tracks by the time we got to camp, or I should say, a good while before we reached it. However, a blazing fire and an appetizing meal of potatoes, ham, beans and coffee somewhat re- vived our spirits. Stories of the day's adventures and adventures of former times were ex- changed around the fire before we sought our beds to try to get a little sleep and rest in preparation for the next day's climb. Morning broke cold and foggy without a mountain in sight. It was a rather glocmy outlook for a climb up a most dangerous peak. Al- though most of us were eager to go, still we seemed unconsciously to put off the time for starting as long as possi- ble. Breakfast actually lasted two and a half hours. Flapjacks, fried trout, and bacon were on the menu. VVitl1 a large crowd a delay of this sort could be-avoided by dividing the party into two and cooking over separate fires with a double outfit. Even oldtimcrs have something to learn or re-learn on every trip. At last we started up Ruth, or the mountain which must be crossed before reaching Ruth proper. WVe took a cir- cuitous route to the left instead of going up over the heather and over the knob. Cnce we had a splendid slide of snow, but were so wet and uncomfortable as a result that we did not try the experi- ment again. We began to climb Ruth Mountain, and ten of the group who were making better time went clear to the top. The restof us went about two-thirds of the way and got a good look into a deep blue-green crevasse.

Those Wl10 reached the top had a most unusual ex- perience. Due to the coming.of all electric storm a great deal of static elec- tricity was gathered at the top of the mountain. This caused a queer sensa- tion of an electric shock. It made their hair stand on end and gave them shocks when thev touched each other. Afraid of more' severe manifestations, they made haste to get away from the phe- nomenon. In the mountains we saw every de- scription of wild flowers, such dais- ies, many varieties of heather, true Sol- omon's seal, heliotrope, tiger lilies, snapdragons, bleeding hearts, colum- bines, and a host of others. VVild ani- mals are scarce, or rather hard to dis- cover. Altogether we saw four bears, two mountain goats, grouse, quail, mice, whistling marmots, eagles, and a few other birds. The forests are very still, emphasizing the scarcity of song birds. As I mentioned before, we also heard cougars, but failed to see any. ll'e who returned to camp earliest ate dinner and started on the trail for Swamp creek and home, at about two- thirty. Vile reached the highway in sev- eral hours, without adventure, but very weary. The pack horses and the rest of the party soon appeared and we began to sort out our belongings. Then some- thing which might have been a serious disaster was discovered. Austin Bond was missing. He had not come into camp after descending Ruth Mountain. There were many conjectures as to what could have happened. Those who had been with him last said that they had left him on the heather within calling distance of the camp. Messrs. Bond and Burlingame hastened back over the trail, leaving orders for pack horses to follow. There was nothing for the rest of us to do except to go home and hope for the best. There was little hilaritv on the way, as might be expected. The roads were exceedingly slippery and we drove very slowly for fear of acci- dent. The next morning there were many thankful hearts when we heard the glad news that the lost had been found. He O11 ef .HillllCII'llt'Z Fourteen. was coming along about six miles back on the trail, so tired that he could scarcely navigate, but otherwise unhurt. It appeared that he had gone too far to the left thinking his brother, Elden, had gone that way, and had come down into Ruth creek canyon some distance below the camp. In order to get out he had to retrace his steps up the treacherous climb and by the time he had gained camp everyone had left. lVhen he finally reached camp, no one was there to welcome him save a black bear which was diligently cleaning up the scraps, all his forty-seven compan- ions thinking he had gone on ahead. He started on the downward trail, but after such a rough and tiring time he did not make very good speed. They loaded him on a. pack-horse, reaching the road at ten-thirty and Bellingham at one o'clock. This was the happy ending to the most glorious camping-out party I ever experienced. I understand now why those who go into the wilds once are called back year after year to enjoy again their first thrills.--DOROTHY BETH FAY. MoUNT BAKER Lonon Plans for the erection of a cabin on Heliotrope Ridge, the base for the Mount Baker climb, are under consid- eration. This cabin will be a distinct asset, as there is at present no shelter at the Ridge save a small ranger's cabin which will afford protection to not more than five or six persons. The lodge, which will be built with Association funds, will shelter from seventy-five to one hundred girls. Those interested in the project expect it to be ready for use within another year. The Association also expects to own a complete outfit of camp equipment including cooking and eating utensils and alpine stocks, for the use of stu- dents making this trip. The hope is that instead of one trip to Mount Baker each summer there will be a hiking party of fifty or more students every week-end throughout the season.

Bellingham, Wasli., Aug. 15, 192-LQ Sixty-two people. under the leadership of Mr. Hazard. of Seattle, and Mr. Kolstad, reached the top of Mount Baker, Saturday, August S. The ascent was very successful in that all excepting one, who attempted the climb, reached the summit. The party camped at Heliotrope Ridge Friday night. Everyone was roused at four o'clock Saturday morning, and breakfast was served at five. At half past five the climb- ers hit the trial, the scouts leading. Grease paint was applied at snow line. VVhite, pink, brown and orange colors were used and some very singular appearances were in evi- flJ.'llC6. Here the party was joined by Don gi-Ullfitflll, Wlfd made a hurried trip from Bellingham after the lfi Fiid f p cy ' ' ht, ' order to make the climb. y ay mg In wftfteruthis the scouts, Tunstall, Young, ltice, Hinthorne and Mr. Kibbe, led on up the glacier. The first difficulty came a half hour later when the first snow bridge was crossed. The party adva.nced without inter- ruption until 10:3-O, when a stop wasmade for eating prunes and sugar. Some very large crevasses were encountered before the climbers reached the Saddle at 1:30. Here lunch was eaten and a half hour given to rtst. The small amount of snow below the Roman Walls made .the last part. of the climb most difficult. It was very icy in places and some of the crevasses were dan- gerous to cross. The party was separated into two divisions and the ropes were used for the first time. Two large rocks came bounding down from the cliffs above and passedthrough the line of the first division. The last difficulties were surriounted in climbing the Roman Walls. The last of the party reached the top at 5:30, after twelve hours of climbing. COMING DOWN EASY - The descent was much easier and safer than the ascent. Many long slopes offered fine opportunities for sliding. All were in camp by 8:30. A ' One of the mostinteresting parts of the trip was the pictures that were secured. Many interesting things recorded in pic- tures forrn a lasting history of a worth-while achievement. u One Hunclrecl Fifteen l P 1 is , Q 2 ,, fi, gsfggz .. . , ' ' IQQQ.-'f Sis' 15 . . ,-'pq qffdrzf-,..

Each year during the spring and summer quarters there are numerous opportunities for boating parf ties. There is the private party or the club that goes Cut for a dayis picnic or si week-end trip to our neighboring Isle of Llllllflll, to the Sucia Islands of the San Juan group, or to Orcas Island where one can combine boating, fishing, swimming, and clam digging with the climbing of Mount Constitution, the highest point cn the Sound. Or per- haps the goal is Friday Harbor on San Juan Island, where our marine school L . Y e i wiser ' maintains summer courses, or Where by chance, our baseball team is playing a local squad. If the latter, then the Normal has been known to 'sponsor an all-school excursion and picnic. Very popular, too, are the numerous excursions to Victoria, on Vancouver Island, the capital of the Province of British Columbia. There one feels the thrill of landing on foreign soil, and has all the joy of the foreign traveller in taking the various sight-seeing tours, in viewing the Parliament buildings, the museum, the castles, the parks, and sunken gardens, the observatory with its mammoth telescope, and other things to delight the traveler's soul and eye. 4 1 'Q x,a.

THE ALLISON CUP AT LAST The Allison Cup which for the past five years has been the basis of con- tention between the Normal schools of the state, has at last found a permanent home at Bellingham. A This trophy was presented to the Normal schools of Wasliington by Guy S1 Allison, an alumnus of Bellingham Normal from -the class of 1907. v The rules formulated by Mr. Allison in 1921, when he presented the cup, were to the effect that a school must win a majority of the judges' Votes in the tri-Normal debates to gain possession of the cup. The rules further stipulated that a school must win for three consecutive years to gain, permanent possession of the trophy. Cheney Normal was victorious in 1921 and again in 1922. Bellingham broke this winning streak in 1923 with a sweeping victory, and Cheney's hopes of gain- ing permanent possession of the cup were blasted, for that year at least. The debates of 19241 were very close and hard fought, resulting' in a tie be- tween Cheney and Bellingham. In the deciding contest Cheney once more tasted defeat and Bellingham won the second consecutive victory The victory which has been won this year has completed the Work begun in 1923 and the Allison cup is destined to remain- in Bellingham as one of her cherished possessions. Greater interest in debate work is expected next year. . There has been formed within the school a debate club known as the Allison Debate Club. New and capable speakers should be found within the school, by the aid of this so- ciety, to meet the keen 'ccmpetition for the new trophy which has been offered by Mr. Allison. He stated in a recent letter to the school that the cup for next year will be even larger and better than the one recently won. Most of the credit for the victories this year in the interfNormal triangular debates must be given to Miss Madden, the new coach. The outlook Was anything but bright when the call went out for debaters this year. There was not a mem- ber from a former Bellingham team or a single student with post-high-school ex- perienee available. Miss Madden's task was not only to coach Winning teams but also to find the material for the teams. She planned, as a means of accomplishing this, an intramural debate tournament. This plan was eagerly entered into by the stu- dents and soon the strains of eloquent oratory could be heard emanating from secluded nooks. One Hundred Eighteen 7777777 Y 1 v X STATE CHA POYHONEN MPIONSHIP SQUAD VAN ETTEN M C AC ' ADDEN, Q H LE MASTER WOLBERT LEONARD C LARK HRes'olved, That the United States Cancel Her European War Debts was the question decided upon for discussion. Several' clubs selected teams and the following schedule Was arranged: Philo vs. Thespians. Alkisiah vs. Aletheians. Independents vs. Independents. , The three teams declared victors in these debates included those representing the Aletheians the Thespians and an Indepndent team. The Independent team, 7 after defeating the Aletheians, also defeated the Thespians at a regular assembly On January 13. ' l ft. Annall The students were called upon to give the decision by popu ar xo e si majority of three votes decided the victors. The Winners had success- fully upheld the affirmative side of the question, by their contention that -the European nations can pay, that there are means by which such payment can ld 'f fment be made, and that it Will be for the economic betterment of the wor 1 pay is made. The speakers to defend the Normal's claim to the Allison Cup were selected from those who took part in this tournament. Their victory is due to the able coaching of Miss Madden and to the masterful aid given to the 'teams by Mr. Arntzen and other members of the faculty during their final preparation. ltvsolvcc,l, That Japanese immigration in the United States should be regu- lated on :1 pcrc-cntagc basis, Japanis per cent to be on a parity with that of lrluropf-an nations. ,This was the question used for each of the debates this year. One Huncfrefl Nineteen lN'l'l:1R-NGRMAL TRIANGULAR DEBATE Bellingham, affirmative, 2: Cheney, 1. Belliiigham, negative, 2g Ellensburg, 1. The Tri-Normal debate was held February 26. Unlike the usual procedure the affirmative teams were the ones to travel. The Bellingham affirmative team debated at Cheney, while the negative team met Ellensburg here. . The members of the team traveling to Cheney were Warner Poyhonen, Inez Clark and Gretchen VVolbert. Mr. Arntzen accompanied them as faculty adviser. They based their argument upon the fact that by the statement of the question Japanese might be admitted on a percentage basis just as European nations, but that a special treaty should be made with Japan to admit only the desirables. They further showed that by such a policy friendly relations with Japan would be assured and thus trade would be promoted. Myra Leonard, Floid Van Etten, and Velma Le Master upheld the negative side of the question upon the home floor. They defeated the Ellensburg team by pointing out that the Japanese are unassimilableg that one unassimilable Orien- tal race cannot be admitted without admitting all Orientalsg and that it would be setting up a dangerous precedent to admit them on aiparity with European nations since there is a clause in the immigration laws of the United States which declares that no alien ineligible to citizenship shall be admitted to the United States. Badger Club, Negative, 25 Bellingham, affirmative, 1. Two men from the Badger Club of the University of Wasliington defeated a local team at a special assembly March 12. Meryl Byrd and John Fitzgerald were the speakers representing the Bellingham Normal. The men from the University won by their greater experience in debate.

One of these was to spend several t vears a sea and at fishing. All of these experiences have helped him to interpret his sonffs to his audience with greater truth of life. Each year Mr. Graveure travels aboard, se- curing new and interesting music to delight his listeners. Sandor, his accompanist, is a pianist of note whom Mr. Graveure engaged in Europe. Mr. Sandor's art adds greatly to- the completeness of the concert. SOPHIE BRASLAU ' Sophie Braslau, a young contralo, was presented in song recital January 9, 1925. Miss Braslau was born in New York and has had most of her training in America. She began her training as a pianist, but someone discovered her voice and her career began in grand opera, where she soon won a cordial liking. For several years she has been devoting her time to concert work. Q Miss Braslau has a magnificent voice, ranging from the very deepest tones to those quite high. Added to this large list of good qualities she has a fascinating power of stirring her audience with her songs. .NIARIE IVOGUN . On January 21, Marie Ivogun was presented in the third concert of the series. Miss Ivogun greatly pleased her audience with an artistic program and a charming personality. Ivogun has a surprisingly high voice and clear, sweet tones. Her program, including many encores, contained a large number of favorite songs which were truly appreciated by the audience. W. S. C. GIRLS, GLEE CLUB - February 141, the W. S. C. Girls' Grlee Club entertainment was remarkable for its snap and variety. The girst group of songs was sung by the entire chorus. Following that was a violin solo by Miss Reynolds. The quartet sang severalfine numbers. Miss Pettibone played a piano solo. The whole Glee Club gave a Chinese extravaganza, in which number the girls, were dressed in Chinese costumes. They gave a very weird chant and dance while the quartet sang to the accompaniment of odd little Chinese guitars. Between this and the Scotch act, the trio, consisting of violin, 'cello and piano, played several numbers. This last number featured Janet Rae, Pullman's Harry Lauder. Students felt that they were well paid for hearing these girls on their fourth annual tour.

One Hunclrecl Twenty-one FLONZALEY QUARTET I oiven at the Christian Church on the eve- The Flonzaley Quartet's program g - . ning of April 16 was a genuine treat to the music lovers who heard it. All the numbers were heartily applauded, and the Quartet graciously responded with several encores. The artists playing were Adolfo Betti, first violing Karl Kraeuter, second violin, Felicien d'Archambeau, viola, and Iwan d'Archambeau, violoncello. Mr. Kraeuter, who occupied the second violin desk, was supplied by Mountain to take the place of Mr. because of temporary illness. origin. Mr. Edward J. de Coppet of New York Citv, a wealthy and enthusiastic loifer of music, particularly of the strinf quartet often entertained his friends with small informal concerts in his the courtesy of the Festival Quartet of South Alfred Phochon, who could not be in his place The name l5'lonzaley' 'has an interesting gs i own home. His ambition to establish a permanent string quartet took shape when he spent the summer of 1902 at his Swiss villa on Lake Geneva. Here he met Mr. Pochon, the present second violinist of the quartet. Mr. de Coppet, delighted with Pochon's playing, invited him to his home to discuss the forming of a permanent string quartet. Mr. de Coppet agreed to be the financial sponsor for the group, while Mr. Pochon was to secure the players. T As a result of much work, Mr. Pochon secured Adolfo Betti of Brussels Con- servatory for the first violin. Ura Aara, a young Italian who was studying in Vienna, accepted the offer to play the viola parts, while Mr. Pochon was equally fortunate in securing the services of Iwan d'Archambeau, a brilliant Belgian icellist. The four musicians met for the first time at Flonzalea, Mr. de Coppet's Swiss villa, and took the name by which they have become famous in the World of music. They came to America in 1904-. At that time they performed only for Mr. de Coppet and his friends. Occasionally they gave a public concert for charitable purposes but it was the founderis wish that the quartet should give no public per- formances. In 1906, however, a change was made in the business relations, and the quartet became independent and sulf-supporting. Since that tfme their work has become widely recognized. They have played in four hundred American cities, have made eighteen hundred appearances in America, and more than five hundred in Europe. This group. of players is largely responsible for the growing interest for chamber music in this country. Music critics unanimously praise the Flonzaley Quartet.

Mrs. Owen has spent a great deal of time traveling in Europe, Africa and Asia Minor and she described the social life and business relations of these peoples in a most entertaining manner. DECEMBER 15, 1924 y Students of art and those having an artistic sense were very appreciative of the illustrated lecture delivered by Mr. Haig Arklin. Mr. Arklin, who is an artist himself, conceived the idea of making copies of famous paintings as he saw them in his travels in Europe and bringing them here in order that American people might become more familiar with the works of great artists. America,,' says Mr. Arklin, has attained great heights of economic and political perfection, but she has not contributed toward the art of the world. Now is the time for her genius to be turned to the production of art. 2 JANUARY 19, 1925 ' The Normal had the pleasure of hearing Dr. Thomas Curtin, famous journal- ist and specialist in foreign affairs, lecture January 19 on the subject of European Affairs. Dr., Curtin's talk .was one of the most educational and interest-holding of the year. He described pre-war and after-war conditions in Europe and America. When asked by Lloyd George what great lesson we had learned from the World War, Dr. Curtin replied, Any structure, to last and en- dure, must be put on a foundation that is morally sound. At the close of the lecture he expressed his appreciation of the interest and knowledge the Normal students had on the subject.

The main purpose of the groups is to train their members to be guardians who will be capable of organiz- ing and leading other groups of Camp Fire girls in various parts of the state. At the end of the course each girl is awarded a guardianls certificate if she has attended ninety per cent of the meetings, met all other requirements, and planned a three months' program for a Camp Fire group. s The law of the Camp Fire Girls is to seek beauty, give service, pursue knowlf edge, be trustworthy, hold on to health, glorify work, and be happy. The Camp Fire program centers around the watchword Wol1elo, meaning work, health, and love. The Desires', of the three ranks express a real comradeship of friends, the love of man for God, and the desire to share with others the good and beautiful things of the world. The program for the year included lectures and demonstrations on symbolism, wood blocking, requirements for rank and course, book binding, nature lore, girls' psychology, basketry, program planning, blue prints, and other topics of interest to a Camp Fire Girl. At a' meeting on May 29, President Fisher spoke on VVhat Girls Can Do as Leaders. One council fire was held. It was conducted by Miss Ruth Brown, Executive Secretary from Seattle. A Ubirds' breakfast given at the end of Sunset Trail was one of the enjoyable events of the year. There were about fifty members in the three groups during the winter quarter. Lois Booher was president, Myrtle Carlson, secretary, Alice Vaughn, treasurer, and Catherine McEwen, reporter. One Hun clred Twenty-eight lf 'inn Guy Allison Debate Club .

The debaters were met at their hotel and taken for a trip over Chuckanut High- way by the committee consisting of Ruth Little, Lois Peck, Geneva Roswell, Dingman Bjema, Robson Graham, John Fitzgerald and Mr. Fowler. They were further entertained before the debate by Catharine Watts, who played a violin number. After the debate a reception was held in the Fidens Hall reception room in honor of the debaters. All debate club members, the judges, the Board of Control and personal friends of the Ellensburg debaters were invited. Much of the feel- ilig of comradeship and hospitality was due to the steaming hot chocolate con- cocted bv Gladvs Burrows and served by Cpal Regenvetter and Gladys Lee.

To about twenty-three charter members there have been added enough to reach the membership limit, which is thirty-five. The fol- lowing instructors in the music department' of the institution were invited to be- come honorary members: Miss Ethel Gardner, Mr. Paul Lusterman, Mr. Clifford Newdall, Mr. Harrison Raymond, Miss Maude Slawson and Mr. John Roy Wil- liams. I The aim of the club is to study the lives of composers and to render their works. The semi-monthly meetings are 'given to the study of one phase of music with vocal and instrumental illustrations by club members. The first meeting Was devoted to a MacDowell program. Those following were on Indian music and the contributions of Cadman and Lieurance, and on negro music and the con- tributions of Stephen Foster. The club was named in honor o Y .

One Irfunclrecl Thirty-three i l n f mm Club The years 1924+-25 have been the most prosperous yet experienced in the life of the VV Club. Its growth has been rapid because of the fact that a larger number of men are becoming interested in the athletics of the school. The HVVH Club as an incentive, has urged more athletes to strive for the coveted emblem which this school bestows. Incidentally, themernbership of the club has been in- creased threefold during the past school year. g The organization has extended its activities throughout every section of the state. Special effort has been made to secure a high type of young man for this school. Successful attempts have been made to locate alumni who have earned their in some sport and interest them in the organization so that closer association will result. ' . Present indications point to a larger club next year, with activities Which, it is hoped, will favorably affect the Whole school.

Addison Campbell and Dr. Georgia Sattler, two of the most scholarly Bible teachers of the Northwest, was held in January and was received with enthusiasm. Y W The first all-school affair of the year was the annual Y. W. C. A. reception held at Eden's Hall. The Hard Times party-was perhaps one of the most unique and joyous events of the year, and the Y. W. 'C. A. Trip-Around-the-World has not yet met an equal in the eyes of the participants. One of the most inspirational and profitable affairs of the year is the Annual Missionary Convention held at Geneva on Lake Whatcom by interdenominational workers of the Northwest. Last summer Mr. Frazer, a missionary among the Lisu aboriginal Chinese, was one of the speakers most enjoyed. About sixty students were Lin attendance either after school hours or during the week-end at the lake. Much interest was kindled in undreamed-of opportunities for service. The needs of the field and opportunities for Christian teachers have been so presented that over twenty-two graduates of this institution have answered the call to do definite life work in the foreign fields, besides many who have been inspired to do work in the home field. ' ,.,-1 O ne H undre cl fZ'lzfif1'ff'!'3ewn Leowgrlzfcr Club Back in the gray dawn of the history of the Leowyrhta Club, a nebulae of girls began to cluster around a center of interest in story telling. At first there was no organization, later as the number interested grew, formal organization took place. There are three important cornerstones in the foundation of the club. These are Friendship, Love of Good Stories, and Service. All of the girls strive, of course, to make fellow members dear friends. In club meetings the best of stories are told and read with deep appreciation. The members are always in active service at the libraries, and ready for any call coming from clubs and P. T. Afs. The sponsors, Miss Jacobs and Miss Montgomery, and Miss Sperry, who is an honorary member, have guided the club successfully through the year. During Book llfeek in November a very interesting program was put on at the libraries. This year the annual program has been extended to take in the Silver Beach library, which is just struggling into existence. The social side of the club has not been neglected, for there have been many pleasant evenings together, the banquet being outstanding among these. The officers have been Daisy Howard, president, Dorothea Adolph, treasurer, and Lucile Norris, secretary. One Hundfred T71 ifrfy-eiglzt Alkisiah Club JULIA MURRAY .

Proud of the fact that theirs is the oldest club in the Bellingham Normal, and the only federated club, the members have tried to live up to Alkisiah standards. The club's objective of public service has been particularly stressed, although no meeting has been considered complete unless public speaking and current problems have had some part in it. One of the first activities of the year was the furnishing of popcorn balls for the Pre-Primary party. It is doubtful whether the children enjoyed the treat any more than did the girls who prepared it. During November the club brought the exhibit of originals by Washington artists to Bellingham. The collection contained many pictures which were both beautiful and interesting, for some of the scenes were familiar to Normal students. The display was held in the Normal-building and many townspeople as well as students took advantage of the opportunity to learn something of Washington art and artists. On Friday, December 12, we initiated all new members who had been voted in during the quarter. The evening proved very amusing for the old members and the new ones won through strenuous endeavor the club spirit of Once an Alki- siah, always an Alkisiahf' Just before Christmas when the cold winds were blowing outside, the girls held their annual bulb sale. Beautiful white narcissi which the members had grown were offered to the students and faculty at a reasonable price. 3 Our annual club banquet which was held February 141 in the Tulip room at the Leopold hotel proved to be one of the most enjoyable events of the season. The newer members gained appreciation of the club's past activities by .meeting with the club workers who have graduated. 1 Before the spring quarter closes we will have entertained the student body during one assemly period. . To Miss Moffatt, the sponsor, and to Mrs. Vaughan, who is an active mem- ber, we are indeed grateful for the kind and generous assistance given during the past year.

A clever HalloWe'en party was staged in the Home Economics room of thc School building. The girls all came in costume and many original charactcrs :Ip- Peared. One of the interesting features of the evening's entertainment was an il- lustrated talk on Alaska by Gaynelle Moses, who had just returned from two years of teaching in the Land of the Midnight Sun. i The Winter passed quickly. Many interesting meetings were held, at which literary subjects and topics of the day were discussed. The Aletheians did their part in making the Christmas program a succcss. A scene from the Little Red Schoolhouse was given which carried thc audit-nc-c back a few years into the past. The Aletheians also helped in making thc Viking Vodvil an event which will not soon be forgotten.

I The purpose of the club is to give literary programs, parliamentary drills, debate, dramatic and social functions. Ohiyesa is an Indian word meaning The Winner. Soon after the opening of the fall term of 1924 the members served tea in the Faculty Room to fifty guests. Since the tea the club has had several social functions. ' During the winter quarter the club served a luncheon in the club rooms of Edens Hall to fifteen new members. The annual banquet was held in the spring in the Tulip Room of the Hotel Leopoldyvith all members present as Well as many alumni. It was a great success as a get-together for both' the new and the former members. The officers for the year have been as follows: FALL President . . .

It certainly was a difficult thing to choose twenty-five new members out of the sixty who tried out. When we finally had them chosen we felt that We had the cream of the school. At the next meeting we had the election of officers and the following were chosen to lead the club for the quarter: President .... . GUY BOND Vice-President . DICK BRL'L,5ND Secretary .

I was so sorry you couldn't come back for the birthday party in January. The old Philos there. It was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. re were many Philippi. We spent a good share of the time playing the I?h1lo crap game. I C311 still hear them yelling, P-H-I, oh shoot, three P's. We wsu-re all given an intelligence test on poetry, too. Catherine Randall proved to be timesniartest.. At a very late hour 3 Shgyt musical program was given and then illrs. Philippi, assisted by her two daughters, served us with the most delicious relrcsluuents. The huge One IlY1IIlfI7'l'fI Fo2'fjI 7f U birthday cake with seventeen green candles on it was presided over by Guy Bond. Miss Headrick blew the candles out and there wasn't much air left in her when the last one flickered out. Mr. Kolstad was lucky. He got the ring, but he didn't tell us who it was or when it was to be. Dutch VVilder got the hairpin and I haven't been able to find out just what that means. I' got the penny and when I come into my own I' am going to build a cabin for the Philos out at the lake. Oh, it certainly was a successful party and we as a club certainly appreciate Mr. and Mrs. Philippi's hospitality. At our next club meeting we elected the officers for the second quarter: President ....... MERYL BYRD Vice-President LELWYN ALGYER Secretary . VIOLET NEAL Critic ........ MARIE PAKAR On the night of the opera Cavaleria Rusticanau we had dinner'at Edens Hall before attending the opera in abody. Every Philo was proud that one of their own members, Marguerite Saddler, took one of the leading roles. I know that you have been very anxious to know how we came out in basket- ball this season. The boys had a slicker team and they won in the game with our old rivals, the Thespians. They also defeated the Rural Lifers. The girls also had an undefeated season and we are very proud of our successes in athletics. Our initiation for the second quarter was held in Mr. Kolstad's' 'cabin at the lake. How we all got into his little cabin will always be a mystery. If you want any details as to just what occurred there a good person to ask is Freda Slater. During the spring quarter we gave an interesting assembly program. In May we had our annual week-end party and it certainly was a shame that anyone had to miss that, for it was the crowning success of the year. Wenlearned how to play baseball while we were there, to say nothing of the skill developed in playing checkers. A 'Ne all feel that this was one of our most successful years and we owe much of our success to the untiring efforts of Mr. Philippi, club sponsor. VVe hope we will see you at the party next year with all of the rest of the former Philos. f Yours, PHI.

The boys think it would hs,- all right if one didn't do any Work. The summer session drifted in and as usual the pep in the cluh was dis- Played in a salmon .bake and a trip to Friday Harbor. Bang! What was that? Oh, nothing. Just the Rural Lifers starting the fall quarter. The first meeting Was held at Miss Keeler's. At this meeting plans were laid and the usual routine business of the quarter hegun. Rcfrcsli- ments made this regular meeting into a party and thus caused the explosive Start of the club functions. One Hz1rzfI1'ffI Forfgl-ffi'0 The real reason for having a club is to study community problems, such as may be met through club and other extra-school activities. With this in view, programs are planned of varied nature according to purpose and season such as may be adapted to the community in which one serves. Parliamentary drill is one phase of the regular program through which actual working experi- ence is gained. The club is just getting to the interesting part of a model Parent Teacher Association. It began with a meeting called for the purpose of discussing the advisability of effecting such a.n organization and is now ready to complete the permanent organization, delegating to the various committees the actual work appropriate to such committees. Adam School District bids fair to have a model P. T. A. so that anyone missing meetings is certainly coming out at the small end of the hornf' The club has continued its policy of excursions and out-of-door recreation, for it is believed that such activities are educational and wholesome for the group and community. l i ' The trip up Sehome to plant ivy and flowers was a huge success. All nature appreciated it. Even the clouds showered good wishes on the party to make the venture a success. ' The combination Halloweien party and initiation made quite a stir. A few ghosts appeared on the scene, but were scared away by the manner in which the peanuts were crossing the floor and by the vigorous waving of paddles in the hands of the initiation committee. A As usual everyone enjoyed the annual Christmas party at Dr. and Mrs. Miller's. Remarkable as it may seem, there was not a flunk in consequence of the fun had. ' Edens Hall made money for a week or so after January 26. What, didn't you know? Oh, that was the date of the annual Rural Life banquet. Stuffed? Well, I should say sog of course, no one had indigestion, for happiness aids di- gestion, and everyone was pleased with the entertainment provided by the com- mittee in charge and by the Victoria Hotel. The annual Valentine party at Edens Hall was a heart smashing good time. The prizes were appropriate and the refreshments more so. With a heart as a stake, who Wouldn't be a gallant knight, participating in so thrilling a tournament! Some folks declare there is no Lost Lake. Well, maybe there isn't, for the party that went out to find it came back without having had a glimpse of the lake, and the party that was trying to find them, found neither the lake nor the lost Rural Lifers. ' A perfect day has been ordered for the Mt. Constitution trip this year. The members want to see all there is to be seen this time. They also hope to eat pan- cakes fried in bear grease on Mount Baker before the year is out. Not willing to neglect their minds for their stomachs, a trip through the 'cement plant and another down into the coal mine is planned.

VVell, when I came hack this fall, I decided that I was going to get into the club or die in the attempt. I started prac- tlcing a poem on my room-mate until she Was certainly glad when the day for the tryout came. The tryout was awful, and when I' saw how good Joe and Margaret and all the rest Were, I thought my chance of joining the talented crowd was pretty slim, so I Was more than tickled When I got my card Welcoming me into the club. My mind kind of goes blank when I try to remember initiation night. I certainly got my share of carbolic acid, cat meat, and bumps. I guess the other-rs suffered, too, though. I believe We had a Halloweien party afterwards-Paul and Don say we did-H but I was so dazed and bruised up that I can't remember what happened.

XVI: On e flu I1 drvcf Fff1'f,'l--W2 1 The various clubs l1ad tables to themselves at the Home-coming banquet in Edens Hall dining room so we Thespians had a real get-together. I.et's see, I guess t.he next important thing our club did was to give the miracle play, The Christmas Guest,,' at the Christmas assembly. W'e did everything to the new Thespians at the winter quarter initiation that was done to us, and almost ran them ragged. Floid and Don made a hurried last will and testament when they smelled the carbolic acid. Mary's ride on the wheelbarrow was good. Evelyn, Beverly and Selma didn't particularly enjoy the hours of wash- ing dishes while the rest of us danced, but finally even they admitted that it was a swell club. The best part of the initiations came the next week. Chauncey and John spent most of their time up a tree yelling for the Thespian Club, while Jessie delivered passionate speeches on VVhy Girls Are Girls V' The time when I was most proud that I was a Thespian, though, was when we pantomimed Hiawatha for assembly. Miss Madden coached it and, Don, it was just great! Marjory, Melba, Bradley and Slim were especially good. The Thespian orchestra played a wonderful accompaniment for the readings by Sybil and Mary. Even the Philo girl who sat next to me said it was the best assembly we've had this year. It was too bad you couldn't be here for the Home-Coming Banquet at the Leopold. Elsa was the chairman of the committee for arrangements, and she cer- tainly put it over big. Polly, Tiny, Oliver, and several other old Thespians were there, but we missed you. The banquet, speeches, program, floor and music were all just perfect. ' Mr. Newdallcoached a clever musical act for the Viking Vodvil that was well liked. Some of the rest of us sold refreshments to help our Normalstad fund along. I wish I had time to tell you about our wonderful Philo-Thespian week-end party Qget Tommy or Maurice to write about thatj or the girls' basketball team, QElsa and Catharine know more about that than I doj and all the rest of our good times, but Mr. Kibbe expects me to hand in a term paper tomorrow so I'll just have to ring off.

Recreation for the girls is well provided for. Each night after dinner an hour of informal Jollity is enjoyed. Some girls spend it by playing the victrola and dancing in the third-floor lobby. Some may be found playing the piano or singing or talking before the blazinghearth of the beautifully furnished drawing room. Others prefer to spend their time walking about the campus or visiting their friends in other prooms. . Miss Headrick, the social director of Edens Hall, has supervised a very de- lightful social program this year. The first event was in the nature of a get acquainted party which thor- oughly Xaccomplished its purpose. A Christmas party was given to which- each girl was allowed to bring :i friend who did not live at the hall. Candy and toys were distributed from the tru' bv Santa himself.

It was organized in the fall of 1923 for the purpose of getting better acquainted with our neighbors who came from the North Central states, to welcome those just coming west -to our school, to help maintain the high standard of social life in the school and to support the interests of the Belling- ham Normal. We feel that we are truly western. The pioneering spirit, the spirit that calls to everyone for his best endeavor, has called us from the East. VVe love the VVest' and have come to put our hands to whatever task lies nearest to them. Of our varied social activities' this year, the Splendid banquet in the Club Room will long be remembered. After a short program the purposes and aims of the club were discussed, and officers were elected for the next quarter. The bad luck commonly attributed to Friday and thirteen, especially when they fall on the same day, was deliberately courted when we carried out and enjoyed in a most happy wayithe big event of the year, a dancing party on Friday, the thirteenth of February, in the big gym. VVe proved equal to the occasion even though the man in the moon hid his face and old Satan himself came up to drive us from earth and take away our eats. A Let us add that any who have lived in any of the North Central states a year or more are eligible for the club membership. In all of our activities we have felt that success was possible only because of the guiding hand of our worthy sponsor, Mr. Lawson, who has been diligent in his work for the club.

From this land of the North there is a group of people in the school who function under the name of the Sourdough Club. From a social standpoint, the club this year has achieved great success. One event which will long be remembered by the Sourdoughs is the HalloWe'en party given the early part of the fall quarter. In the Christmas program given by the various clubs of the school, one of the most successful features was the pre- sentation of a typical Alaskan scene by the Sourdough Club. During the winter quarter the fourth annual banquet Was held at the Hotel Victoria. This banquet proved to be the largest and most delightful in the club's history.
