Praeco Staff Has Added New
Members

Thirty-Five New Faces in
Classes

Miss DuBois Supervises All
Training School Art

The Praeco Staff has boon growing
rapidl.y within the last few weeks. From
the original five it has increased to
twelve. Peg McCauley was elected to
work on the Calendar section. In the
Art department, Sterl Artley, Paul Vonada, Euth Jones, Dorothy Lambert and
Peg McCauley aro now at work. Catherine Orth, Josephine Paul and Helen
Eettger were selected to make writeups on the social organizations. To
Mar.v Kirby was assigned the humor section.
These people are organizing the book
on a fuller and more collegiate plan.
New features are plentiful, especially in
the photographs, the Calendar, and the
Art sections.
The photograph editor, Claudia Kelly,
is plannig to have the organizations of
the school uiiiform in style and form.
To make the .athletic section more realistic she wants to snap the players and
leaders i n action. She is also trying to
collect as large a variety of unique and
freak snapshots as possible.
The Calendar section is being worked
out ill news-reel form, totally different
from anything that we have ever had.
The name of the book "Praeco" gave
the -Vrt department the idea of carrying
out the Eoman style and form df art
throughout the book.
The social organizations are to be
givi'ii nicii-e attention. Their activities
and unusual experiences shall be treated on the same page as their group picture.
The facetious collections of Mary Kirb.v lire going to be plenty in number.
Praeco will be totally unlike any of
its predecessors, reconstructed from stem
to stern, to make it the livest yearliodk ever published here.

Thirty-live new faces are smiling
cheerfull.v or nervously, according to the
temperament behind the face, about the
halls and classrooms since the opening
of the second semester. Some of them
are familiar from former sessions, regular or summer; some of them still have
to become familiar for the first time.

Supervision of all the art work in
each grade of tho Training School will
constitute a big part of Miss DuBois'
work for this semester. Last semester
this work waa divided between Miss
Atherton and Miss DuBois.
Miss DuBois' student teachers are:
Group One—Amy Bitchey, Edith Lundeen, Priscilla Heath, Agnes Mattson;
(Jroup Two—Matilda Cornmesser, Bessie
Lipez, Alice Whitney, Georgine Nunn,
Catherine Gardner, Pauline H.amilton;

graduates on Friday afternoon, January 28, from ,1:30 to 5:30 in the Blue

also there to express their regrets at the
students' departure and to wish them
much success and happiness.
The members of the student council,
Rose Bower, Esther Snavely, Ann Orlin,
and Jlowrie Ebner, saw that all the
guests received as much of the refreshments as they desired. Eose's particular duty was to see that no cup was

surely was being used with a vengeance.

Sweet Selling Sweets
Candy—now they have it. The boys
have finally realized that there are possibilities in candy, and have placed a
stock of it on sale.
The Y'. faced a financial problem before Christmas, and decided that candy
might relieve tho strain. Bill Sweet was
appointed to take charge of the buying
and selling, and has gone into business
over in the East Donn.
So much has been purchased from
him within the past two weeks that
niiiny appetites have lost their keen edge.
Sales have been heavy, but will probably fall off somewhat when the idea
has lost its novelty, iuid the candy appetite gets back to normal. Even at
that, the Y. seems likely to continue
in Sweet's sweet business because of the
]ilcasiiig profit therefrom.

New Programs Give Half
Holidays
The programs for the second seniester
have brought broad grins to many of
the Juniors. Half-holidays appear on
their new programs.
Those in the Junior High School group
find themselves with Wednesday and
Saturdaj' afternoons off. No classes;
who is dissatisfied with that? The intermediate grade courses spread about
the program cards more evenly, but at
that Friday afternoon is wide open—
for study. None of the sections of the
primary group was eciually fortunate;
classes are distributed both mornings
and afternoons throughout the week.

Every One Moves
"Say! Did you get .vour new program
made out j'ct?"
"Why no. Who said we should?"
"Why don't you use your eyes ? There
has been a notice to that effect posted
on the mail-box cabinet all day."
"Let me see your card. I suppose
miiie'll be the same. Wow!
Eight
o'clock classes every morniug but Saturda.y."
"Yeh, and did you notice when wo take
Gym?"
"This H200 is Gym, isn't it? But what
is this SS240?"
"Why, that's Economics."
"Economics? That teaches you how
to save money, doesn't i t ? "
"I don't know, but if it does I better take down a few points from it.
Well, so—long. It's time for Biology
and this is the day for the test."
"Go to it, you can pass."
"Thank goodness this is the last one."
A score or more of such conversations
was the order of things during the last
week of the first seniester. They took
phico ill the halls, in the Y. W. .and Y.
JI. rooms, in student's rooms, ;ind in
the da.v-rooni.
Early in the week every one seemed
to catch the thrill of a rapid closing up
of the work. Those who had done well
in their work experienced a satisfied
feeling and were anxious to take up
new subjects. Those who had not done
so well were glad that they were about
to throw off the old yoke and start anew.

Welcome, Owl
The "Owl," from California State Normal .School, is the latest addition to our
exchange list. It is new, not only to
us, but to every one who has seen it,
for onr copy is only the second issue of
vidume one.
I'rofessioiial make-up in its type arrangement, headings, and balanced columns, and excellently written news
items are characteristic of this issue of
the "Owl."
The staff deserves much credit for issuing such a splendid paper. We extend our congratulations to the "Owl,"
and extend it a hearty welcome to our
office.

Skating on Athletic Field
The football field where pigskin battles raged last fall now wears the icy
surface of a miniature lake. The scars
of battle have been erased by the hand
of Nature, leaving a clean slate on which
to p r i n t the story of future victories.
All of which suggests that, if the field
could be flooded in the early days of
winter, all thiit low-lying portion nearest to the railroad embankment would
give us a fine skating rink right on our
own campus. The cost would be insignificant; the r e t u r n great.

We Expect Too Much
Most of us expect too much of those
about us. They are too busy with themselves to bestow upon us the appreciation or the notice we think we deserve.
But this t r u t h has a comforting side,
for if our services and successes do not
win thanks or praise, neither do our
slips and failures attract hiilf the attention we fear. We have only to pick
ourselves up and go on again as best we
may, and the rest of the world will p.ay
little heed.
So long as we are honestly trying to
do our best, we may be sure t h a t those
about us are not likely to misjudge us
greatly, either by over or under-estimatiou.

New Girls Receive Attention
The many newcomers to the girls'
dormitory hiive provided plenty of material to keep the more curious of the
"regulars" interested in life.
They showed up conspicuously in the
dining-room. As quickly as me.als could
lie finished the "regulars" rushed out into the hall, to wait until tho recruits
came out for inspection. It m.ay have
been uncomfortable for some of the recruits, but at the same time it resulted
in many of them acquiring a supply of
friends.
I n the library also the newcomers
were conspicuous, especiall.y the first
nights of the semester. The library waa
crowded; library rules were properly
noted and obeyed; y e t it was noticeable
th.at people could succeed in getting acquainted, even those who had thought
they had nothing better to do, so early
in the term, than to impress the facult3' with their studiousness.

Traces Woman's Educational Progress
Dr. Wood}' was presented by Miss Minnie Jane Merrells, of our faculty, and
a former graduate student under Dr.
Woody, who referred to Dr. Woody's
seven years of work at Pennsylvani.a, to
his three ye.ars of service in Eussia and
France during the World War, and to
the many books of which Dr. Woody is
the author.
Dr. Woody sketched the early rise of
the status of woman from that of a
mere ch.attel to her present social position. He described the earlier developments in education for women, all of
them recent enough in point of time,
when the only training she was permitted was in simple feminine accomplishments, such as dancing and painting on silk. Dr. Woody stressed the
fact that even in early times in this
country women were thought inferior in
intellect to men, and were barred from
higher education "for fear their brains
might crack."
The seminary, he said was the pioneer
educational institution for women, and
from 1770 to 18(i0 furnished almost the
only education which any woman received. About 1860 it began to be believed that women could study the same
subjects as men, and m.'iny higher institutions began to permit them to enter.
Women were admitted to teaching. Dr.
Woody said, because schools paid so little for their services that the positions
h.ad become uiis.atisfactory to men. Mary
Lyon taught for seventy-five cents a
week, an average salary for her time.
In 1829 the first teiichers tr.aining school
was opened, .and in 1839 the first normal
school, in Massachusetts, and for women
only.
The first women entered medical
schools in 1848. Later the profession
of law was opened to them. The first
woman's college, Mt. Holyoke, opened in
1837, the first pupils enrolling helping
to tack down the carpets in the school.

Engineering Feat Completed in
Boys' Dormitory

JUST ABOUT JERRY
"Behind t h e Scenes"
"It's queer the girls don't come," said
Jerry as she paced up and down the
wings. I told them to be here early."
"Oh, there's plenty of time," put in
Betty. "It isn't seven yet, and if they
are going to dress in their rooms it
won't take much time .iust to make them
UJI and put on their wigs."

"Hang, Bett,y! Might have known
she'd do something like this," breathed
Bonnie, "Did you hear a noise? Pretend you did," he whisjiered to Jerry.
After some five minutes they got biick
on the triick again and the audience was
unaware of the fact that anything had
been missing.

At the fall of the curtain, Betty fell
on her knees at Jerry's feet. Bonnie

why you haven't been in any of the
plays."

Never before in the history of the
Bo,ys' dorm has such a feat of engineering skill been displayed. A new extraordinary epoch in the way of inijirovement will mean as much to the
dormitory boys as the Industrial Bevolutioii meant to the manufacturer.
Some of the more religious element
of the dormitory, when returning from
church about eleven-thirty and ujioii entering by the side entrance, had their
attention attracted by sounds that indicated sonic gre.at confusion at the farther end of the hall.

Tlie.y heard some one call: "Six! Seven! Three! Two! Two!"
Some one iinswered, "Check! Cheek!"
"It's a minor jiart," explained Betty. Margaret Sutton Alpha Zeta Pi

OUR O W N LITTLE DIARY
MONDAY, JANUARY 17
I can't say t h a t anything very exciting happened today. Missed a couple of
meetings. Went down-town after conferenee.
It's funny, I inight as well give it up
as a bad job—I just can't pass the Sugar

Came in from our week-end vacation.
Seems funny but good to be here again.
I had an awful time getting used to sitting for an hour. I've sat through five
today; I eau sit through ten now without a bit of trouble. The rest of the

became pleasantly evident, and more

Tommy Hosterman and Max Bossert
both had their eyes on the basket. Tommy ringing up four baskets, with a foul
point for good luck; and Max caging
three field goals. Bauman, McCloskey,
and Sherkel each dropped one through
from the floor, and Sherkel ran his total
points to five by his foul-shooting. McCloskey's general floor work during the
half game he played was distinctly creditable. Dave Ulmer improves regularly
at his guard position, showing an ability to handle two men in pinches without allowing either to cut in for easy
shots.

Dickinson Seminary Trounces
Normal
The Normal team, iiiiiiinved in passing but poor in shooting, suffered the
fourth defeat of the season at the hands
of Captain Nye and his Dickinson Sem
boys.
The first quarter was real basketball,
both teams penetrating the other's defense, but the Seminary boys made their
shots and took a safe lead in the latter
part of the quarter. They kept increasing this lead until half time when the
score stood 18-4.
Normal came baek at the beginning of
the second half, making it interesting
for Dickinson bj' scoring 5 points. Bossert was then removed for personals and
Bauman went out with an injury. The
game from then on was decidedly onesided until the end. The flnal score was
49-14.
Hosterman and Sherkel caged the
points for Normal, Tommy making 10

Tennis—the International Game
"Tennis"—the onlj- sport in the world
which has no national boundaries. America has football and baseball, England
has cricket, Norway and Sweden have
track, and so on down the list. Each
country has its favorite sport or game,
but the one game that is universal to
all is tennis. There are many reasons
for this international popularity, the
most important of wdiich is, the standardization of the game. I t is played in
all parts of the world on the same type
of court, with the same kind of balls
and rackets, and governed by the same
rules and regulations.

Another reason for the popularity of
tennis is that it produces an all around
physical development. In many sports
certain groups of muscles are over-developed—in running the legs receive the
greatest idevelopnient; in roiving tho
arms and shoulders are over-developed
in proportion to the rest of the body.
But tennis brings into play all the muscles of the body. Instead of making the
muscles hard .and stiff, tennis makes

The preparatioii of the lower life

for tho winter season, arises from some
great instinct jiassed up through many
generations. In human beings living in

makes it easier to shock.
Early in the morning, in the crisp
September air, with the sun rising over
the eastern hill, sending its warm rays
down u]i(in the frost-covered earth, we
went out with oui cutteis to the lield
of standing corn. The frost several
nights before made it fit for cutting,
for the leaves wi>re dead and dried. The
.stocks fell rapidly before us and were
stacked in huge shocks for further drying in the air. This process of corn
cutting always reminds mc of clearing
a standing forest, such as my father
used to describe. We went into the forest of corn aud made a clearing, stacking the corn logs iiji for further use.

I ahvays enjoyed, as much as anything, picking apples. We always had
to make it a plan to pick orchard fruit
before the lieavy frosts and wind storms
should come. Those big, luscious apples—how wonderful they all looked
piled ill d a t e s and barrels ready for
winti'i- c(iiisiiiii]itioii. It was my work to
pick the fiuit from the lower branches,
as I was not permitted to work on the
ladder. That seemed to be the exclusive right of my father. Often while
he was on a high limb, his bucket would
become full wdien there were only a few
more to jiick. Then, h.aving me stand in
an ojien spot, he would toss the apples
down for me to catch. When they were
nil crated, the.y were taken to the Jiit
where they were covered with blankets
to await sides or consumption. How good
they tasted those winter nights when
the wind was howling outside and the
snow was coming down in sheets.

The clearing of the corn field usually
disclosed many things to our sight. There
were Iniiidreds upon hundreds of golden pumpkins l.ving in the field, and I
visioned them all being made into big,
thick pumpkin jiies. Besides the pumpkins we saw the burrow of the big, fat

I have ofleii lieard my father tell of
the old-fashii)iH'd "iiuskiii' jiarties" which
used to lie held at tlie various farm
houses when the corn was fit for husking, generally two or three weeks after
cutting. Why this form of country

is more than I can tell, unless it is because this type of pastime was about

the even temperature of the earth would
keep them fresh and whole. The grapes,
however, gave us a bit more trouble.
Tho variety we had on the farm were
rather late and generally the frost
would catch them before they were full.v ripe. We took precautions; whenever a cold, clear night came, we covered the vines over with burlap, blankets or anything we eould flnd. I n this
manner we jiroloiiged their growing season several days and gave them plenty
of time to ripen.
At last all the fall work was flnished.
For nearly three months we had been
preparing for winter. We reaped, we
gathered in, we stored. The barn was
liulging its sides witli hay and grain
for the stock. The cellar was fllled with
canned fruit and potatoes. The rafters
of the attic were hung full of seed and
pop corn. In the pit were stacked crates
of apples and vegetables. I'reparedness
