Trembath J A N U A R Y :il, 192.'! Criticism Criticism, when given in the right spirit—AvIiich is sincere friendship—is a Avorkiiig agent for the good of the person Avho receives it. The person who loses his tem])er Avhen one of his friends, classmates, or teiichers points out his faults, is not made of the stuff that achieves greatness. No one likes to be criticized or in any way have his faults brought to his attention; desire for praise is natural. But constant praise is bound to make an.v one self-satisfied; and the Viit of dissatisfaction that results from a little honest criticism is an excellent tonic for the stagnation which always sets in with self-satisfaction. The better way to take criticism Avlien it is friendl.v meant is to thank the critic, think the criticism over soberly but not despondently, and resolve never to give au.v one the chance properly to make the same criticism again. It is that siiirit which admits you to the .Vmerican Legion of People Worth KiiOAviug Let It Ring! .Stand up and cheer, stand up and cheer. Stand up and cheer for dear old Normal; Let it ring, let it ring out loud and clear, "Rah, rah, rah." We're out to win; we'll pla.v a game that's clean and straight. Stand up aud cheer, stand up aud cheer. Stand up and cheer for Central State.

It happens in a flash, but its memory sometimes lasts forever. The rich cannot get along without it, and the poor are richer for it. It is the badge of friendship, the fosterer of good-will in business, and the creator of happiness in the home. It is rest to the wear.v, sunshine to the sad, and Nature's best remedy for troubles. It cannot be bought, begged, stolen, or borrowed, for it derives all its value from the heart that gives it away. No one needs a smile so much as those Avho have none left to give.

Selfish skin-savers, piling up five or six reference books and three magazines in front of themselves, against future need, while other classmates search fruitlessl.v about for some of the same volumes and periodicals, evidence that human nature has been prettj' much the same for at least two thousand years.

TIMES Well, I Didn't Know That! Chapel Choices ART AND THE GIRLS It ]ia.vs to read current magazines, but few of us have time to search for the things of most interest to us. Glance over this bill-of-fare; it should suggest something that just meets your needs. All of these articles and stories iire to be found in Januar.v's inagazines. In Scribners are some interesting reminiscences about Robert Louis Stevenson and Thomas Nelson Page, not dryl.y biographical, but bits of life which can bring you into closer touch with them. The first article is b.v Sir Edmund Radcliffe Pears, and the second—an ap]ireciation—is by Arniistciid C. Gordon. The National Geogrii)ihic's main article discusses the island of Sardinia and its people. Miiu.y of the profuse illustrations are in colors. In the .same magazine the article on the Beautj' of Snow and Ice ought not to be overlooked ; it is a gem. In the Atlantic are articles on Literature in College and on China. The last named is particularly an eye-opener. The world is inarching, and China is not going to be left behind. Interested in school jirojects? In the Normal Instructor are ii history project, Franklin, the Wisest American of his Time, and an arithmetic project treating of the presentiition of stocks. Alice Fleming has a valuable article on How to Deal With Im migrant Children. Few teachers will never have that problem to face; better read this. Histor.v is being made in volumes diiil.y. If .vour e,ves are open to whiit is noAV going on, you will be able to face a class later, when suflficient time has passed for the texts to catch up, as one having authority. In Harpers read the Return of the Turk, by F . G. Masterman. Last, but not least, every one in the East Dorm should read what W. L. George has to sa,y about The Art of Courtship. Take advice from your elders ; they know. Girls, if the boys are going to read this—and they will—a word to the wise should be suflftcient. Get ready to recognize the s.yniptonis. You will find it in Harpers, imniediatel.v fidlowing the short stories, which, by the Avay, are ahvays readable. Chapel exercises on Tuesda.v morning, .Tiinuar.v IS, were in charge of two members of the oral exjiression class, Marie Crain and Lucretia Summers. Marie lead the devotional exercises, aud Lucretia read Am.v Lowell's Lilacs aud a few extracts from Edna Milhiy's Renascence. She reminded us entertainingly and effectively that, while we should duly jiraise and appreciate the earlier masters of poetry, AA-e should not forget the excellent work being done by present da.y American poets. It has been possible to get some of the benefits of travel around the world in very comfortable and speed.v fashion recently.

Go get 'em. most teachers when the.y get up against the job of teaching is that of locating books for their own or for pupils' reading. Few schools are sufficiently supplied with books for supplemental or reference reading. It is of decided value to know that there are at least three sources from which such books can be borrowed; that upon application almost any book of use in the teaching of any subject Ciin be obtained with little or no exiiense from the R.
