NORMAL TIMES At VOLUME 2 Central State Normal LOCK HAVEN, PA., JANUARY 31, School 1924 NUMBER 6 Examinations, Posting of Honor Teachers, Appointment of Training School Teachers Drama of Thrills and Uproarious Comedy Given to Largest Audience in Years The first seniester comes to an end on January ;il. Kxamiiiations are on. The first term honor teacdiers have been named, ten of them. Xew aiipoiiitnients to practice teaching ]ilaces in the training school anil in the city schools are being made. Schedules for the second term are being made out, with much less confusion than attended the first seiiiestei's registration activity. Grades will soon be sent home, mid new resolves made to do better work in the semester that begins February 1 ; made to be broken, probably. "Two Crooks .and a l.ail.v" .and "The hear Departed" were the two vi'r.v successful plays given .lanuar.v 17 b.v the llrainalic Cliib, under the supervision of Miss .\lber, before the biggest crowd that has .iaiiimed itself into the auditorium in inaii.\' a >'ear. Alice f^yaii, Donald (ilossiuu', and Edythe Morrall SI (ii-eil big personal successes in roles that seenieil to appeal to them greatly. lietween the two plays the Glee Club sang, under some ditticulties, yet jileasiiigly. In the first play, one of the thrilling ty]ie that comes close to being meloilrama in plot, and would bo so were it not convincingly acted, Mrs. Simms\'ane, a helpless invalid, unable even to move her head, by the sheer power of liuinor succeeds in preventing two unilerworld types from making oflf with her f.amous diamond neckhiee, this despite the fact that she is entirely alone. To each she gives an opportunit.y to save himself, but each fails in the test to prove himself worth.v of anything better lli.an the iiiiiiishmeiit which (inall.v comes to them. .\s .Mrs. Siiiims \ aue, in an exceediiigl,\- ilillicult part to make satisfying to sinli au aiiilience of, friends and aci|iiaiiit;iiii-es as (illed tho auditorium, Alice K.\.au covered lu'rsidf with honors. She created the essential illusion, t h a t of Iieing in complete comniand over tht! lesser minds of the two crooks despite her complete p.aralysis, almost from the moment she was wlieeleil iu. .\s Miller, the Hawk, IJonnld Glossner f;ave an e.Ncelleut liit of realistic acting. (When the play was given tho following evening down in Beeidi Creek, his fall after Lucille had fired pointblank at him was so naturally done that a startled shout came from somewhere, " i l y G , she shot him square througli the h e a d ! " He too succeeded in making his audience accept him as being a thief, and a determined one. As Lucille, his sweetheart, upon whoso ,iealous.y and cupidity, Mrs. Simms-Vane pla.vs in order to save her necklace, Lucille Burnham did very well. She did not quite seem crook enough to bo entirely convincing, yet she brought out of her part about all that there was in it. She did fail to seem weak enough, however, to be able to hide away t h e tliirtj-fourth diamond, and so lose t h e chance Mrs. Simiiis-\'ane had given her to prove herself good at heart. I t would be too much to expect, perhaps, t h a t Lucille could entirely convince us t h a t she was born wrong. (Continued on page 2) The ten honor teachers have a jierfect right to feel elated. They have been awarded the honors because they have satisfied all the svijiervisors of work in the training schools of superior coinjieteucy in teaching, of faithfulness to the trust iinposeil in them, and of all around de])eiidability.

Not many niinutes luul jiassed before the sjii'iiker. through his iiersoiiality, man.v apt '.jokes, witt.v sayings, gesticulations, niiniicr.v, and How of descriptive ad.iectives, had caught up his audience and was cavrving tliem along with him.

One has not far to seek for the secret of Werrenrat li's ininiediate success and switt growth ill the favor of lovers of good singing. He possesses an iiiiusiinl measure of the qualities which a critical |)ulilic demands in an artist. The da.v has long since passed when a singer can have voice and nothing tdse. .V beautiful voice is a rare ami wonderful gift, but alone it cannot bring enduring success, lu addition to master.v of voice and of technique the artist must have a cultured and traineil mind, quick imagination, clnaracter and loft.v ideals. Mr. Dietrick likened two distinct divisions of men to grasshoppers and measuring worms. The grassliop]iei' t.viie is quick, impulsive, leaiiing bliiidl.v from one activity to another; the iiieaauring worm typo goes on the "think before ,vou leap" Iirinciple, and is slow and determined. The graS8ho|iiier business man gets into and carries on many and varied activities; the measuring worm goes into one, sticks to it, becomes an expert in it, and does nothing else in life. The grasshopper student selects Werrenrath possesses them all.

The victims appeared at Price Hall with a turkish towel, a cake of soaii, and ,-i dab of lard. The lirst stop on the liilgriniage was in Hie music studio, wliere the se(|iient iais were sung, wrung, and unstrung. Kxcitement began to run high. Each one was then bliiidfoliled, and some one of the old niembers gave individual .attention to each of the future dais.v-kickers over the rest of the long and tiresome .iourney. The first ordeal was the jiicking u)i of a ])iii, blind-folded, witli some one bringing l)ack memories of what happened ill the woodshed back home in the good old da.ys. The initials of the org.anization were "branded" on each candidate's face and neck. The materials were only soap and water, but the sensation was wonderful. A switt trip down an (devated, well larded board into a tub of water followed. By wa,v of bringing back strength, refreshments were furnished: sweet pickles with a la.ver of mustard for relish. A short walk, still blindfolded, through discarded laboratory equipment finished as much of the journc.y into the Nature Club's membership as the ]niblic was jiermitted to see. Those initiated into the club were Christian Feit, Carl Schrot, Dora Detwiler, Margaret Cunningham, Ruth Brehm, Helen Mizener, Pauline Schaffner, Albert Hauke, Carrol.yn Wein, and Fa.ve Lord. How Girls Study « Did you ever see two girls get together to studj'l I t sounds something like this: "Oh, I wish I had my speech out for Oral Expression. I've worked and . . . Say, did you say .you were going to have a man for the dance? I am, but I haven't found out his name yet . . . Oh, dear, I never can jireI>are this speech!" "Now I'll have to prepare that story for Miss Alber. Let's see What did .you say? 'I'd look better with my hair bobbed'? I'm going to before Oh, my stor3'! 'Once when a Lion was sound asleep, a little Mouse began . . .' Guess I'll try on my evening gown, and see how it looks once more . . . That story is too short: let's see . . . " "Come in. Hello, kid. Yes, I'd like to, but I lent it to *»**, and she lent it to ****. If you can find it, use it; but tell mo if you do; I want to curl mine. "J ought to stud.y that lesson in Histor.v of Ed. 'One of the main difliculties up to this time . . .' 'The sums are very low compared to present day costs . . .' Yes, I'm going to the show. I think it will be a fine opportunity to study the stars again, too. That makes me t h i n k : I have an observation in Nature Study to write up, and a lot of music to practice. I must get back to my room quick before the lights go out. The next day they go to class, looking very wise. The teachers think that they have been studying very hard. So do they. TIMES OBSERVATION TOWER^ .Margaret I'Ish has been thiukiug seriousl.v of getting up for breakfast some aioniing. Pauline Schaffner's lost expression on riiesil.a.v of last week was iliie to the non-arrival of her d!iil.\' bo.v of candy. ,\lad(diiie Weakland made her bed be fore eared lietween the two plays, and sang MacDowell's to a Wild Rose, and Brnnscomb's When Twilight Weaves Her Gentle Spell. They (lid very well, especiall.v with the latter. During the first there was rather too little confidence in their singing for it to be entirely good. To sing from the auditorium floor instead of the stage, while the scene-shifting was somenhat audibly going ou, and while facing a galler.y crowded with twice too many cramped children and others, especially uheu apjiearing as a sort of sideshow to the main performance—all that put the club under a tremendous handicap; it is astonishing that their singing was so nearl.v perfect. The Dear Departed deals with the rather obvious comedy theme of two sisters, supported b,y their respective henpecked families, quarreling over the division of their none-too-well-loved father's estate, and laying the usual unlovely little plots to get possession of this or that valuable niemento, only to have father spoil everything by appearing on the scene entirely hearty, and exposing ludicrousl.y each of his daughters' machinations. Edythe Morrall carried off the honors in this ]ilay. She was the hypocritical, s c h e m i n g , undutiful-dutiful daughter to a T. There was nothing in her part that she did not bring out, to the huge enjoyment of the audience. Henry Slater, her husband, was well acted b.v Albert Hauke, his distaste for his wife's, performance, and the smothering up of his mild jirotests, being artistically sound. He did not look the part, but he did act it, his voice being particularly well used. Julia Coffey, as Mrs. Jordan, the other daughter of old Abel Merryweather, Carl Schrot as Mr. Jordan, likewise under his wife's thumb, though a more willing accomplice, and Marie Crain as Victoria Slater, were all good, very good. Not one of them gave a weak performance. Particular praise is due, however, to Jesse Ward for liis slow, hesitating accents, his lieavywitted inability to comprehend how ver.y dead he had been thought, his slow grasping of the wdiole situation, and tho relish with which he finally announced his engagement to be married again, to some one who inight be glad to look after him, all were in character. He made his part a little too real for pure comed.y, perhaps—but that is more tribute than criticism of his acting.

The other oflicers chosen were Edith Burgeson, vice Jiresident; Bea Van Zandt, secretary; I'aye Ijord, treasurer; Mary Johnston, monitor; a n d Gertrude McDermott, pianist. NEW PRICE OFFICERS Oflicers for the second semester were elected at the meeting of Price Literary Societ.y on January 2.J. Ruth Langsford is Price's new in'esident, and a real executive she promises to be. Alice Kunes is now vice president, and Grace McKinney, secretary-treasurer. Jack Fillnier's work with the Gazette was so good that he was re-elected editor. Anna Mae Landis is pianist. President Langsford appointed on her refreshment cominittee Virginia Harnish, Alice Ryan, and Pauline Snyder. Louise Holden, Helen Mizener, and Evald Erickson were her apiiointees to the Iirogram committee. Annual State Inspection of Normal's Resumed Following the policy re-instituted by State Superintendent George Becht, two inspectors have arrived at C. S. N. S. to give the school a general looking over. This used to be done annually, but has not been done for the past several years. Two members of the state departnient of education, Mr. Valentine Kirby and Mr. Armstrong, arrived on Moiida.y morning, Januar.y 28, and spent both Monday and Tuesday visiting classes, looking over the dorms, and getting a general impression of the school. Nothing whatever was done b.y way of preparation; nothing could be, since they arrived at the lieginning of examination week. That was all right, however ; they saw tho school just as it was. (We must make one exception to t h i s : when the girls heard that their quarters were to be looked over, they did some frantic house-cleaning. Ever know a woman who didn't get all upset about compan.y'? Otherwise, business went on as usual. Mr. Kirby spoke to the students on the value of an artistic atmosphere iu schoolhouses and schoolrooms. He said that the quiet teaching power of good pictures on classroom walls could not be overestimated, and referred with admiration to the schools discussed by Superintendent McAndrews in a recent issue of World's Work. Ho insisted on the necessity of giving the school as much the atmosphere of a well cared for home as sehool activity will allow; and caused some chuckles and sidelong looks when he casually mentioned the teacher's dress and personal appearance as contributing, one way or the other, to that atmosphere. Mr. Armstrong seconded Mr. Kirby's thoughts, and then went into a number of ]iersonal reminiscences gained as a county supclrintendent in this state. He too developed the idea that no part of the school plant could contribute an.yHiing of value to the child unless his teacher was thoroughl.v competent and thoroughl.v sincere. The teacher cannot mold a iHipil into something that she herself is not; that was his kcj'uote. If she is to teach thrift, she must be tlivift.v. If she is to teach pupils how lo stud.v, she must know how to do so ett'ectivel.v herself. If she wishes them to be honest, or iiuiietual, or artistic, or anything else, she must first trulj' be so herself. Jiofli sjieakers held the attention of the audience, something other speakers not haniliciipped, as they were, by having been rushed up to the platform direct from the train, with no warning of what was coining. Jlost of the feminine contingent .among our reporters went into the flurr.y caused among the housekeepers in the West Dorm. AVe quote several extracts : "Pictures are hurriedly snatched from the walls, and assortments of nothing in iiarticular and everything in general are thrust into trunks. Oh, the contents of fho.se t r u n k s ! But, at that, we are glad the inspectors come once a year; what would happen if they didn't?" "Funny how everybody took a notion to clean up their room at the same time, isn't i t ? " "They objected very strongly to being thought of as 'state inspectors.' They asked us to think of them as 'friendly visitors.' Believe me, we did, too, wdien we saw them coming into tho dining room." "Everybody is busy cleaning up her room, running around with a mop, a brush, or a broom, even cleaning under her bed, moving the furniture; rearlanging the clothespresses, and putting ;ill the accumulated junk for that future scrapbook in her trunk, locking it, and hiding the key safely." "Crash! Bang! Bz-z-z-z! Who told you that? Gee Whiz, I'd better hurry down and see wdiether my roommate did." "Hey, wdiere did you put my boxes? Well, come here! Oh, heck, hurry! We only have fifteen minutes to do this in, for I'm not rolling out in the morning to do it." "Where did you put your junk? I put mine in tho trunk—and locked it, believe m e ! " "Well, it's all over now. They met with the faculty, on Tuesday afternoon, and they couldn't have said anything very terrible judging by the way every one was laughing when they came out. Anyhow, how eould they? Old C. S. N. S. isn't the biggest sehool in the state, but it's the best. We're here to learn how to teach, and we're getting the stuff; we know it! They can't beat our faculty; and if an.v kids in the state work any harder than we have to. Heaven help 'em, that's all!" So that's that. The general feeling among the faculty seems to be that these inspections are a good thing; that it doesn't do any school harm to know that it must hold up to the mark, or lo find out either its weak points or its strong ones. TIMES We Gather That The Intermediate Grades Indiana State Normal School has a veiy convenient arrangement for making inone.y. Any of the organizations of the school is permitted to put on a movie, forl.v ])er cent of the proceeds going to (he school and sixt.v per cent to Hie orgaiilzation. Only worth-while pictures, of course, are presented. The Freslimeii at Indiana have drawn up a petition asking that a class in social training (good manners) lie given. The faculty of the school is attemiiting to work out a plan, in answer to the petition, that will be agreeable to all concerned. Professor Candlyn, of New Y'ork State College for Teachers, Albany, wdiile he was in Philadelphia over the Christinas vacation conducted the presentation of a cantata comijosed by himself, "The Liglit of the World." The cantata is the one which carried off a $-'>00 competitive prize last year. Speaks well for the talent of State College instructors. The subjects of Mr. Drum's chapel address, ifonday, the fourteenth, was "The Work of the Intermediate Grades." The aims of this group a r e : The ability 1—to exjiress either in speech or in writing ideas with which the child is entirel.v familiar. 2—To do away with all gross errors in speech or writing. 3—To compose a letter. 4—To sjiell the speaking vocabular.y. '>—To read silently and reproduce wdiat has been read. fi—To quote accurately familiar poems (at least once a month). 7—To mafco use of ordinary reference books. In Hie intermediate grades geography should begin with the study of the home community, history with the stories of National holidays; and both manual training and home economics begin with the teaching of small duties, the knowledge of wdiich must contribute to home and communit.y life.

They have decided that in tho future they will not take their "dates" to and from parties in taxicabs, except when the affairs are formal or the weather is bad. The first sorority at Southern Illinois State University was organized last fall, and is called Epsilon Beta. One of the business men of the town is building and furnishing a new home for the twentyfour members. RLEWANS* Maude Ballington Booth lectured at Kansas State Teachers College on January 30.

NORMAL TIMES Jack Frost's Reign in Dayroom Hauke Tries to Kill Cat "Is this the North Pole?" asked a dorm .student wdio entered the dayroom one Monday noon. Gazing around the room, one could easil.y see why she asked such a peculiar question. In one corner was Helen Bettens, perched high upon her desk, clothed in her coat, hat, galoshes, woolen gloves, and muffler, caliulj- though shiveringly eating sandwiches covered with a coating of frost and bananas that looked like yellow icicles. On another desk farther down the room sat Violet Agnew, similar],y dressed, trying to drink water th.at froze as she tried to gulp it down. One look at the thermoineter confirmed the idea that it was below zero. Exclamations such as "Oh, isn't it warm?" "I'm feeling just fine!" "Isn't it a pleasure to be able to eat in your coat?" were heard all over the room. Grace English said that this was the onl,y time in her life she wished she were a monkey, so that she could wrap her tail around the steam pipes and keep warm. Helen Baird crowded up on her desk, and waved her arms frantically above the steam pipes to keep them from freezing. Blanche Ihiuger said that she was willing to freeze for nothing, but to pay four dollars for the privilege was too much for her constitution. A late investigation for the cause of the trouble disclosed a rear window wide open. Gentle pushes and liard knocks having no effect upon it, other aid was sought. Since Mr. Drum had said in ehapel that all boys should know how to fix a window, Donald Glossner was requisitioned. After using up all known priilciples of advanced carpentry and architecture, he found the use of a sledge hammer on an inconspicuous little rod to allow the window to be closed. There is heat in the dayroom again. Soiiiebod,y iiage Mr. Ulmer—quick! Either it is up to him to give Hauke a lesson in chloroforming or to report him to the S. P . C. A. The other afternoon aliout dinner time an ear-siilitting feline squall came from the culinary regions. This was followed by an entirel.v human yell: "Hol.v Smoke! Get out from under my feet!" And this was followed by Hauke. He came catapulting out through the door like a stone from a sling. Another object followed him, this one grey iu color, and another squall broke loose, inimediatel.v Hauke sat down on tho cold, hard iiavement with a force that was unmerciful.

Orchestra in Full Swing The organization known as the (!. S. N. S. Orchestra has been devoting much time to practice and rehearsals. We have noticed thus far that this practice has not been in vain, the best proof being the productions of jazz and razz at the Christmas dance. Although some of the plaj'crs are not skilled as yet in pla.ving real classical music, they can play well enough to keep the dancers inoving over the fioor. In this orchestra are a number of Artists, especially Professor Woodward, the trumpeteer, and Pip Vonada, who can play anything from marbles to a shoe horn. Gin'rul Smeltzer has acquired the ability to rasp off some of the melodies last heard in the Middle Ages, and Maestro Blackford has mastered a new iiiece during vacation, so we will have the pleasure of enjoying two selections at the next dance.

Since Jesse is likly to be kept busy giving cause for cheers during the basketliall season, Bea Harris was elected an alternate. In the yells which followed the election the stinlents proved that they were awake. Their choice of yell leaders demonstrated it even better.
