It was veiled in ethereal dusk. But as I watched , my neighbor opened a cloud and stepped out, attired in his evening clothes. Casually he sauntered along the skyway, in cadence with the flow of star-traffic. The stellar ladies winked coyly at him. The brazen wind petted his cheeks until he effervesced with lunar-light and the worries of the day were forgotten as he drew back his shoulders and tilted up his chin. He tossed silver to tiie urchins of the Milky Way. It was not long before the moon had turned the corner of my bedroom window and I was alone again. Soon, however, I became aware of figures appearing on the pane—a mystic motif of silver silhouettes. Fantastic flowers and spectral shapes outlined themselves before my eyes. Fascinating was the design upon the icingglass. Even as I gazed, some elusive etcher had breathed upon my window, leaving a blue-print of his artifice .

It might have been your roommate or the person across the hall. Did you see them mail a whole stack of letters and then run down to the postoffiee every day with special eagerness to find out what replies they got? And then what about those several nights they spent pasting all this collected scrap into a big book , when they should have been doing school work? In case these busy people haven 't had time to explain to you the meaning of this childish looking activity, here is a bit in their defense. These industrious students were doing some school work. They belong to Mr. Henrie 's Merchandise Information Class. They have made a series of attractive and informative merchandise manuals on items of men's and women 's wearing apparel.

The pupil s contributed a total of $32 to the Junior Red Cross in November. For their February activity in this field of endeavor, the pupils of the fift h grade made soft toys for the c h i l d r e n in devastated countries.

The children traced on black oilcloth forms from stencils and stitched the animals with red , yellow, white and green thread after they had been filled with cotton.

The latter team was made up of Bloomsburg High School players of the season j ust finished. The Stars rolled over Frey's by an overwhelming 78-48 margin. The issue was never in doubt as the collegians poured in point after point. Ed Jones topped the point-getters with 18. Johnny Slegeski got 13 and Joe Chesney and Bobby Kashner each contributed 11. In the "high school vs. college " aff a ir , a preliminary g a m e to the Bloomsburg-Berwick Legion playoff clash last Saturday night, the college boys continued to roll up the score with ease.'

The question asked by the committee, and expected to be answered by the findings of the Workshop is "What kind of education does Schenectady need to fit in with the community of 1950?" Dr. Alice V. Keliher and Dr. G. Derwood Baker, professors in the School of Education at the University, are joint co-ordinators of this experiment. At present 130 of the entire staff of 550 elementary and secondary teachers in the city are enrolled. uuisses meet every Monday anernoon from 3:30 to 5:30 P. M. For the teachers , this is a continuation of their working day, except that they then become students. The class discusses parent-teacher relations and the possibility of substituting personal conferencer in place of report cards to let parents know how the children are getting along. "The important principle is flexibility," Dr. Keliher points out. "You should try different methods in different communities. With your particular school you should do the kind of thing that is suitable to youc particular parents. The 'what to do' depends always on the person and the circumstance." The teacher-students give examples of special problems they have encountered in their work , and review with Dr. Keliher the different methods oi! handling each problem.

After a while , the group I turns to talk of classroom techniques of promoting racial understanding. Joining another unit , Dr. Baker finds the teachers discussing pupils participation in planning extra-cur! ricular activities, special classroom i projects and even the building of a new school. He acts as a moderator in a debate on whether the teacher should warn the pupils in advance when he sees that their own ideas ; may not work out , or whether she ^ by maksho u ld " allow them to learn ing mistakes." In a separate alcove in the library a third section of the teachers group is planning methods to promote mental health of students, an important i tem in the "Guiding Principles" program. In con nection with this principle , the teachers agree, education should be directed to "h elping, each person achieve group acceptance regardless of his capacities or attaini ments." Through their experiences in the Workshop, the teachers will learn teaching methods to give concrete meaning to other items in the "Guidi n g Principl es " such as education for soil-realization; for physical competence; for common and divergent needs; for maximum development; and education as a continuous process. All of these are united under the general heading "Education for personal-social development. " In the field of education for responsible citizenship, the teachers are learning methods of teaching young people to live democratically in the school; to extend civic activities into the community ; to develop competence in the study of public prob lems and in political action; and to use knowledge as a tool of civic competence and responsibility. A major educational aim is fostering loyalty to the principles and ideals of American democracy. o Some people have tact , and others tell the truth. *" ** L TOPS IN WAX-EKiot Lawrence WHAT OTHER COLLEGES ARE DOING iiuMivnii« " U"vu "' iw um i jbBHffiiKffifrt fL. ¦••m"" ¦»•¦•• «¦» .. . . .!? ¦ THANK ,J, YOU j • in Advance I \ M A Y WE SER V E Y OU ? \ i Iron Street Barbers ! > Fisher and Clemens ¦ S pring is her e — bringing to Penney 's brand new ideas in fashion - smart accessories !
