V O LU M E 34 O C T O B E R 1929 NUM BER 1 PRESIDENT’S LETTER TO THE ALUMNI Dear Alumnus: We have just opened our doors for the fall semester to the larg­ est student enrollment in our history. Seven hundred and fourteen have enrolled. Of these 202 are in the two year senior class, and 222 in the first year of the. two year.course. The gratifying feature is the increase in the-four year group. Thegj? number .290, divided as| follows: Seniors 49, juniors 64, sophomores 78, freshmen 99. There are 225 day and 489 boarding students: We have added an additional ¡member to the faculty of the Social Science Department and have organized a Department of Geography. We shall miss genial “ Newsh” Bentz as Coach, but his place will be well filled by Mr. Henry Dresser: We^ were sorry to lose Miss Bausch from the Modern Language Department, but we are gratified that we were able to secure Dr. Jane Beardwood as her successor. During the summer we completed the annex- to the dining room, making it possible for ua to accommodate one hundred and fifty more students. 'The architect’s plans for the $150,000 library building have been drawn and in the near, future the contract, will be let. We hope 2 THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A L D to have this long awaited building ready, for use in September of next year. We anticipated a surplusage of graduates' in the twpyear course, but to our surprise the supply was noSnearJy equal to the demand. Before the middle of August every- graduate who was available for a position was'! .sought after and begged by County Superintendents to take a position in the rural schools. When the schools opened in September we were unable to furnish graduates for the vacant posi­ tions in our service area. There is no question that jve shall need still more graduates next year. It. isMnteresting ftp note that the graduates,-in theAfour year course were much sought after for high school positions. There was a demand for teachers of Latin and Mathematics far in advance of the supply. This condition is likely to prevail for some time to come and students who have carried Latin during their high school course may profitably continue their studies in this language during their residence here. Saturday, October 19, will he Home Coming Day for the grad­ uates of the odd-numbered years. We expect to send a personal letter to all pf you who are members of these classes; and we trust that you will make every, effort to be, with us. I want tSthank all of you for your continued interest in the old school. Practically every part of the State is represented in our student body and we know that many students have travelled several hundred miles to Be with us because you have, told them of the oppor­ tunities open to them at the College on the hill. With best wishes’ for a prosperous year, I am Farternally yours,’ Ezra Lehman, ’89 CALENDAR OF COMING EVENTS October 19- Home Coming Day.

HOME COMING DAY, OCTOBER 19 As noted elsewhere, is was found necessary to designate Satur- THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A LD 3 day,'October 19, as Home ||oming Day, The date is earlier than usual but the arrangement of the football schedule makes the^lection of the earlier date., imperative. The Alumni are alwa|jij§|interested in seeing a real game and all reports indicate that the Bloomsburg Teachers College .'will furnish a real live team. In fact, during the past six years Shippensburg and Bloomsburg have broken . even, in the victory and defeat column. We should all have preferred .’Satur­ day, November 2, but on that date our team will 'be at California. . So, in spite of the early date, we are looking for a big’ turnout of graduates of the odd-numbered years, their- wives and husfemdsl We realize that, this event will be an event of the pasMwhen the Herald reaches its readers, but we can all look back to this day with feelings of pleasure. SECOND SEMESTER OPENS JANUARY 27 The second semester will open Monday, January 27. We antic­ ipate thirty-five or forty openings in our dormitories at thah time, due to graduation, withdrawals or other causes,, AtSthis writing ev­ ery room in our campus dormitories, and in Hosfeld Hall is occupied. More than fifty additional students are rooming in private homes near the College. While the privilege of securing rooms in the campus dormitories! must be given to. those now rooming off the campus, it is entirely likely that a large number will prefer to remain in their present loca­ tion. In any event, it will foe possible for-us to admit about forty new boarding students on January 27. This opportunity should appeal .to all students who wish to start upon their work at mid-year rather than to wait until next Septem­ ber. An increasingly large number of students are being graduated from high schools in January. There is no reason why such persons should lose a half year in their advanced work by waiting until Sep­ tember to enter college. Incidentally, it should be said that there are always openings in the public schools shortly after the Christmas vacation and that graduates? in the'mid-year class are usually able to secure satisfactory positions immediately after their graduation. Alumni will please call the .attention of students qualified to enter at the beginning of the second semester to the opportunities open to them, 4 THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A L D COLLEGE ATHLETICS As soon as Coach Dresser arrived in Shippensburg, he' called upon all the football aspirants to meet on Eckels Field. A promising group numbering almost fifty appeared for practice. The only miss­ ing letter men. of last year were Funk and Fenstermacher, who had left by the graduation route. Captain Byers and his: group of huskie^ncluding all thgsubs’lof; last year’s squad were a team in them­ selves, but they found freshman contestants for practically every place on the team. Among the outstanding first year men are Crum of South Fork, Rankin of William Pe‘nn, Harrisburg, Bowers of Get­ tysburg, Warden of Shippensburg, Maxwell of William Penn, Harris­ burg,“ Brunper of William Penn, Harrisburg, Murphy o f Carlisle and Spangler of Carlisle.

While it is too early to get a line on individual players, we do not hesitate to predict that, though Larimer’s and Fenstermacher’s absence will leave a big gap in the ’team, there are more than a dozen promising candidate's for the vacant places.

The Cumberland County Associa­ tion will lead off this year with the dinner at the Argonne Hotel in Carlisle on Wednesday, October 9, at 12 o’clock noon. Assistant Supt. W. M. Rife is president of the association and he has appointed a live committee consisting of Harling E. Spônseller, W. P. Harley, R. W. Peffer, George iMessinger, and C. D.

Bressler has arranged for the annual Dauphin County b a n ­ quet on Thursday, Oct: 17. Dr. Heiges will represent the college;,,;^ Though we have not heard of the plans of Presidents Smith of York, Kell of Huntingdon and Neely of Cambria we have reason to. believe that they are making their plans -for the fall meetings. Ev­ ery Alumnus and former student in these. Counties should arrange to be present at these meetings. They afford an opportunity for the young graduates* fo meet the old timers. We are all better for these réunions:' The College will be, represented by a member of the faculty who will bring greetings and tell of the recent happenings at the old school. SHIPPENSBURG S. T. C. ADAMS COUNTY ALUMNI BANQUET On Tuesday, November 12th from 12 M. to 2 P.

PERRY COUNTY BANQUET The Perry County Alumni Association will again have a luncheon meeting on Thursday, the week of the County Institute.

Coyle ’16, President MIFFLIN CO. ALUMNI ASSOCIATION The Mifflin County Alumni Association has planned to hold its third annual .banquet and dance sshmetime this winter. After a most successful reunion held at Hotel Coleman in Lewistown, Pa., in Nov­ ember of last year, where the attendance was more than doubled over the preceding year, tentative plans had been made for the annual banquet and dance tb be held during Teachers’ Institute of Mifflin County, but owing to- the early date set for this Institute, the com­ mittee planning the reunion has deemed it advisable to shift this year’s reunion to a later date. We look forward to having ,a®least seventy-five present, together with a special program consisting of professional ' entertainers, dancing and cards;* being additional at­ tractions. Paul S. Lehman, ’21, President. THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A L D 7 ALUMNI PERSONALS ’86. Laura B.

Helen Wise Pearson which is so interesting that Miss Horton has decided to share the, greater part of it with the readers o f the Herald. Fort Mills; P. I. August 22, .1929 Dear Miss Horton: The time has arrived to change our address once more. This 8 THE T E A C H E R S COLLEGE H E R A LD time I must ask you to change from the above address to Fort Benning, Georgia. Quite a change. We are ordered back to the StatesFon the October transport, but we have received leave in which to timr China and Japan, So we shall sail from Manila the early part of September for China. After '’doing” it, we shall go to Japan, via Manchuria and Korea (if ..they stop fighting over the railroad on which we want to go to Manchuria.) We shall arrive in Honolulu about November 1 and in. San Franciseoi-pn November 9. There we delay for a bit and then transfer to another transport for the trip through the Panama Canal. On December 2 we expect to arrive in New York harbor, and will go on to our homes in Pennsylvania, where we shall spend the holi­ days before going to our new station in Georgia. I must plan a wardrobe for alB of us, which will require the warmest kind of clothing for China and Japan and from that to trop­ ical clothes for the Pacific and Panama. And it may be snowing when we land in New York! Our two years have gone by rapidly over here. At first it was hard to become accustomed to the mode of life in the tropics, and to wait a month for mail from home. But; the radio has been a God­ send to us. We have been able to exchange necessary messages from Manila to Marysville in five days. We also get all the important happenings in the States by means of the radio. The College Herald arrived yesterday and was read as usual from cover to cover by both of us. We failed to find any personals; from the Class of ’08 this time, but found much of interest neverthe­ less. But we do like to find items about the boys and girls who marched out with us on that far away June day. We deeply regret that Bill and I were unable to attend the fine twentieth reunion of our Class last year. The Round Robin letter from the1Glass was highly appreciated. Before so very, very long we will have two boys ready for Shippensburg. Billie Boy, our oldest son, is now in sixth grade, while Jack is in the fourth grade. They have enjoyed everything over here so much. In January, we sail for temporary duty in the southern islands with our base at Zamboanga, Mindanao. From there we went to Basilan, Jolo and Borneo. The latter was the most interesting trip of all. Didn’t Jess Heiges have a classmate there? I remember hearing him give a lecture on Borneo in the Chapel, but could not recall his name. Naturally, we have collected much loot and I am now engaged in packing it and wondering why we got so much. Will try to get a peep at Shippensburg and my good friends there if my family will spare me.

THE WORLD TURNED UPSIDE DOWN By Edith Kass I love to lie on the moonlit beach Far from the noisy town, For sleeping so, I often dream That the world turns upside down. My sandy bed is a fleecy cloud That sails across the sky, And the .ocean^pray is a bit of mist I meet in floating by. Above me is the sparkling sea Where gleaming star fish leap, And a golden ship rocks to and fro Out in the foamy deep. It’S' fun to , lie on the||oft warm beach Far from the noisy town, And dream my dreams ’til it almost seems That the world turns upside down. M AM M A By Elizabeth Goodling (Second Honorable Mention in Short Story Contest) A roar in the distance, a gleaming light approaching, a rush of air, and the midnight express had passed through Carlisle and out in­ to the darkness again, where the baggage man found still more terror in his assigned place, the baggage car. And there is little won­ der of that. To sit alone in a dimly lighted car, in which the corners and the 2.4 THÈ T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A L D sides were shadowed by piles of express bags, and in the center of which stood a casket, was enough to chill, the blood of a naturally timid man. But to realize that the casket was made for a child, and was now being used for its purpose, that the death of the child was a mystery, which mystery he might solve; that was what brought perspiration to the brow of Milt Brenon. His feelings were one hugè longing for the light and people of the passenger coach. Scarcely could he restrain himself, as he thought of rushing forward to the company of living men. The ¡mur­ mur of many conversations, the rustle of newspapers, and the odor of cigars that would ¡be found in thé. smoking car would be paradise. To stay alone within -the four walls f f the baggage car as minute after minute passed like so many hours, was almost more than the frightened little Milt could longer endure. Deliberately he peered into the ebon darkness of the night, but out there was only a space of blackness broken by white stones, A cemetery, place of the dead! If only the casket were out there. The cemetery held few terrors: for him now. Did he not sit beside the dead? Little1enough fear of the dead outside, on this night. Often before and often again he would tremble as he glanced at that spot É o terrorizing to him; but tonight his trembling was all induced by the presence of the casket. As he again glanced at the middle of the car floor, his mind pictured two things: the crumpled body of a small child, and a huge roll of bills. ^ i , ' While the train rolled over the uneven track, he had an automa­ tic knowledge of its whereabouts. Only beyond Mechanicsburg was the rail so rough. A little farther on was where the cars bumped so disagreeably over that l|||e joint. The trackmen were- not very •careful of this division. The swaying of the train seemed to rock the casket. The ex­ press bags rolled with- the -casket, too. What would he do with that money? Blood moneyl He-shuddered again, eyes glued on the câskôi) A lurch of the car. Faintly, “ Mam-a-a!” A start from the hudled 'Milt, another lurch, ' and more plainly, distinctly now, Milt screamed, scrambled madly for the door, found it, opened and slammed-it, himself safely on the other side. But he could riot stop. He must find someone— any one. Ah! He had relief as he clutched desperately at Pat, the conductor, when he met him between the baggage car and. the coach. Pat, hearing the scream, had come to trace its source. What was wrong?- Milt was more than willing to tell. When all that dreadful story was out, Pat said, “ That’s all right, THE T E A C H E R S C O LLE G E H E R A L D 25 Milt. When we get to Harrisburg, tell the police. Sure I’ll go with you,” and thereby proved his friendship. The men together quickly left the vicinity of the baggage coach. Maybe Milt was rather ne­ glectful of his duty for the rest of that shift. But what could a timid man do?. The train yards at Harrisburg were reached, a new shift put on duty, and Milt walked through the coming down, led by the conduc­ tor to the police station. The look of terror left his face, for he had reached a decision; now he must tell the story once more, and again know peace. When they reached the station, the policeman on duty heard this story: “ Here’s the money. . Pour hundred dollars,; all he give me. Well, it was this way; me and him were friends enough, only he drank too much. I always said so. Didn’t come to no good end, this. Yester­ day morning, about this time, his boy brought down his lunch box; always did when we stopped at the Newville tank. But he’d been drinkin’. The kid whispered something to him. I didn’t hear much, only ‘mamma’ ; and then I saw Mike hit the boy. It didn’t take long for him to drop, just crumpled up. (Mike had hit too hard, and when he dropped, I guess the little .fellow knocked the rail. But he was pale, all right, when he lay there. I can see Mike yet, for he was scared. I guess I was, too, always afraid of Mike when he is drunk anyway, and now to see that little tyke fallen like that. Mike was aside of him, sobered right there. That sight would sober any man, and worry him, too, if he lhad done the hittin.’ “ First I knew, Mike was steppin’ down the rails and in town. I stayed there till he come back. The town is. aside the rail and he was back in a minute. 'Course it was early and nobody about. When Mike come he didn’t look nothin’, except scared. It wasn’t really his child, he bein’ step father. He handed me that money. “ Mum mon­ ey,” he said. I knew what he meant. He had layed the child iii the street, dead. “ But last: evenin’ when I come to the train, Mike wasn’t on duty. I was put on his job in the baggage car, and the casket was there. Yeh, his child, sendin’ it to its grandmother down here for burial. It was awful, sittin’ there and seein’ that huddled body on the rail there at Newville, all thef^time. And then,—no, I heard it. ‘Mamma,’ it said, real plain. I guess it was allowed to say it, so’s I’d tell you this. I couldn’t haveglf'pod it, knowin’ it alone. You kin give the money to Mike for ime, I daresn’t. “ You say I should be in court next Friday? All right.” « Milt and the conductor left the police station. So Milt satisfied his mind regarding the mystery. But his idea 26 THE T E A C H E R S C O LLE G E H E R A L D of the supernatural would have changed, had he known that upon the following day a little girl played with a new “ mamma” doll in her home in Philadelphia. The doll had come from an aunt in Winchester and the package marked “ Express” had the night before passed over the rough stretch of track between Mechanicsburg and Harrisburg. GOOD MARKS AND GOOD JOBS J. Maron Joseph There is an opinion prevailing among certain types of students' that no definite correlation exists between high scholastic achieve­ ment and success in business or professional life. Included in this group of students are those who have high in­ telligence, but lack industrious application necessary to place them­ selves in the upper portion of their class;; those, who even though they are deficient in the rating o f intellectual capacity, still refuse to compensate this deficiency with an extra amount of grind on the booksi : ■ Ask the student who is endowed with a superior intelligence but whose scholastic achievement belies it, what are his contentions on the subject, and the average reply will be to the effect that marks are not a criterion of Scholarship and knowledge, or that high averages do not count in real life, Question the other type of student, the one who was not so for­ tunately gifted by his Creator; and he, more than likely will answer with a dismissing shrug, that he does not desire to be classified among the intelligentsia, who are nothing but snobs and “ stuck-ups.” Carefully analyzing both replies, it is apparent that they are shallow and trivial. The first is a perfect alibi for a lazy person; the second, a “ sourgrapd” ?excuse, for the lack of something intangible and unattainable. It is our purpose to refute all similar lame excuses for poor and mediocre achievement, made while at an educational institution. Wte shall first endeavor to show, very definitely, that there is a correlation between high scholastic marks and success in after life. Secondly, we shall try to justify a cassandra-like warning that in the future, students who rank low in their classes, will have less mathematical chances for success, than their more industrious broth­ ers and sisters whose report card entitles them to a position in the upper third or quarter of the class; and therefore to probable success in their life work. THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A L D 27 It must be admitted that the results of an unbiased survey ¡made by a prominent educational institution, if found to be correct, will influence opinions; otherwise, the purpose of this paper will be nulli­ fied. The Loyola Educational Digest of July, 1927, issued a brief of “ College Records-'and Success in Life,” made by Hugh À. Smith (University of Wisconsin), which appeared in the May, 1927 edition of Education. It will be necessary to quote this digest, almost ver­ batim, because of its condensed material. The survey, extending over two .years, was made of records of over 1800 graduates of the bachelors course in a large university. It included all the graduates over a period of forty five years, and the most recent class studied had gone out fifteen years before. The average scholastic mark was determinedlby consulting the records; success in life was ascertained by securing the frank opinions of many graduates as well as numerous others. On the basis of their marks, graduates were divided into two sections: High and Low; on the basis of the votes, they were divided into two groups, Successful and Less Successful. The results of this survey were grouped into five divisions. (1) In General-STf a man was high in one list, he was almost invariably high in the other; if low in one, low in the other.” (2) The First Two Classes of 54 graduates. The eight quite generally agreed upon as successful had the. highest average in thè two classes; (3) A Later Class of 75 Members. Of these, eleven won general approval as eminent in, life. Of the eleven, ten were the first ten in class, all averaging above 90. The eleventh, with a mark of 85, had at­ tained eminence in politics. (4). Ten Consecutive Classes fr o p the Middle' of the List. The total number of students was 550. Of 93 with the highest marks, 87 appeared among those the most success^ fui. Only one out of fifteen had not in later life maintained the disv tinction shown by his marks during the four years of his college course. But of the 457 with lower marks, only one out of 46 at­ tained distinction in later life. (5). Listings in “ Who’s Who.” Taking five of the middle classes, with a total of 200 men, we find in “ Who’s Who” eighteen of the twenty-eight with the highest scholas­ tic records. Of the 172 with lower scholastic records, only two are in “ Who’s Who.” From this impartial survey it may be very easily perceived that the student with high scholastic averages, has about a 93 9® chance for success and only about a 6% chance for failure. On the other hand, students with lower scholastic records, have only about 3 chances out of a hundred to be successful. 28 THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A L D The most natural retort to these figures will be that they were made by an educator, who had a distorted and theoretical viewpoint, a viewpoint which is not: practical in everyday life, where men have achieved success, even though they lacked high scholastic achievement. Here,, we turn to industry itself for conclusive evidence that there is a correlation between high marks and success in: both rank and salary. The findings of employment departments of large soulless corporations, like the Bell Telephone, the General Electric and kind­ red.. companies, must have a bearing on the case. These corporations which have been: both praised and condemned, are engaged in the pur­ suit of business. A pursuit where philanthrophy is discarded, and success and production are worshipped with fanatic fervor. A man or woman must produce success, else ¡he or she is erased from the payroll. For higher efficiency in their commercial world, these corpora­ tions maintain a constant check on all employees, and have connected success ¡n their fields with academic work. According to the Bell Telephone Company, college graduates are not selected for scholarship as such, but of the college men in the Bell System, it is known that those, who stood scholastically in the upper tenth of their class, on the whole have been more successful both financially and in attaining responsible positions. Next to them were those in the upper third of their class. On the average those making the poorest showing have been in the lower third of the class. The General Electric Company, according to its Personnel De­ partment, dpsires students, entering their employ, to be included in the upper third of their class, A pronfinent public utility company of Philadelphia caters .ex­ clusively to the recent college graduate. It goes to the open market of graduating colleges and attempts to employ the first ten students of the class. As an inducement to these honor men it offers an ini­ tial salary, which is approximately $500 a year higher than the usual starting wage. From the reports of these cold, analytical corporations it is also evident that portrayed in a man’s scholastic record is evidence of stability of character and hereditary influences that point definitely to success or failure in after life. LUELLA’S CALLER Lila Rinard Everything had been still until Luella came out of her revery and made war. THE T E A C H E R S C O LLE G E H E R A L O' 29 “ Patricia grew up without any trouble. Why can’t I ? ” asked Luella, pointing savagely at her younger sister. “ Why am I not; given the; least?'freedom ? . You give it to him!” and Luella now glared so at her brother that he began to tremble. ,Her accusing glance swept around and stabbed each member of the offending fam­ ily. “ We’re caught this time!” muttered Max. “ Whatever wrong has been done you must have done, Patricia, for I am innocent.” “ Luella, dear, suppose you tell us what is troubling yOu,” sug­ gested the mother. “ Mr. Felton asked whether he might call upon me tonight, and I said yes!” burst put Luella defiantly. “ Mr. Felton!' What Mr. Felton? Wbo: fs Mr. Felton?” “ She means Ross,” said Max, confidentially. “ Ross Felton, once our familiar Ross, but now, sprouting six hairs toward a mustache, he has become a mister.” “ Oh, you mean Ross!” said the mother, while Patricia whispered to herself, “ Mister Felton!” and gurgled with amusement. “ What I want to know is—may 1 receive him in the parlor in­ stead of in the dining room, which we turn into a sitting room and all crowd around a center-table?” “ Why, yes; of course we’ll receive him in the parlor if you prefer it.” “ But I want the parlor all to myself!” blurted Luella, boldly jus­ tifying her course, “ Why should ‘we’ receive him? He. asked if he might visit me. All the other girls that I know have company, and they receive it in the parlor, without their mothers. But here we make a family orgy of it. We bunch together. We ask conun­ drums, and all crowd around the same table, with our feet under it and our elbows on top of it, to save electricity!” By this time amusement had died from the faces of all and a crisis was felt to be at hand. :s;f‘Luella, since it is your request to have the parlor all alone to­ night, I grant it,” said the mother. i “ But, mother,” reminded Patricia, “have you forgot about the friends who are going to be here tonight? Won’t we need the piano? W ill we have room enough with Luella in the parlor?” “ I haven’t forgot. We shall have room enough with Luella in the parlor. There will be four feet less under the table and four el­ bows less on top of it!” ' - The mother remarked, “ Listen, .please, As you plainly intimated that you don’t want me to be present when you entertain your com­ pany, you need not be offended when I request you npt to be presen ^ 30 THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE HERAJ.D when I entertain mine this evening. Some friends are coming and I forbid either you or Ross to come into the dining room on any pre­ tense. Do you understand?” “ Yes, I understand,” faltered Luella. She was glad that the necessity of seeing to her evening toilet gave her an excuse for leav­ ing the unfriendly tea-table. One more burning indignity added to the many she had all ready suffered in her progress toward youngladyhood! Luella has. a very delicate, tender skin, and as she set about washing her. face, so violent where her thoughts that she forgot what she was doing, and used with hot water a brand ofrsoap more suited to cleansing Ross’ hard hands then her tender countenance. Moreover, she rubbed it with a rough towel. Thus the skin came off her cheek­ bones in big, raw-looking spots. But she didn’t notice these spots for H ie was too busy with her thoughts. She was thinking what her feelings would be if “ Mr. Felton” should ask her to go to the theatre. Suppose he did? Her best dress, a hat, gloves, perfume, music, lights, the play, telling the girls about it on the morrow! She 'sought the mirror for a final view, and was horrified to perceive the burning discolorations upon her face. She rushed in a panic to consult her mother. “ What a com ic. valentinfff observed Max, as she whirled into the room. “ Oh, mother, look at my face! I must powder it! Just a little! I won’t ask you to say yes, only don’t say no!” Luella sped kitchenward to the flour barrel, followed by Max, who found the affair interesting. Just then the doorbell rang. Max eyed her face curiously and flung a warning after her as she started. toward the door. ^ ‘Whatever you talk about tonight, don’t let the subject be pathetic, for if you cry, no tears will run down your face, but pancake batter.” Excitement prevented Luella from realizing the force of this re­ mark, and she opened the door for RosgsJ*. “ So happy to see you, Mr. Felton! Won’t you com e-in?” asked Luella in a tone rather unusual to Ross, who caught a sweet note or two. “ Good evening, Miss Luella. Pleased. Charmed. Yes, thank you.” When she got him into the parlor, and they were alone, it must be confessed that she hardly knew what to say to him or he to her. Moreover, at his first look at her, he was so startled to see such a ghastly figure. Ross soon asked, “ Are your folks at home?” THE T E A C H E R S C O LLE G E H E R A L D 31 Just then happy laughter sounding- from the dining-room testified the truth. Of course he expected to be asked to join the company. But she knew she dared not ask him, so they plunged into remarks concerning other events. They were both suffering because they could not enter the dining room. ¡Max was playing the banjo. Patricia was singing a. Song. “ They seem to be having a lot of fun. Let’s go and see what they are doing,” suggested Ross as he made a happy move toward the door. |g||No, no!” cried Luella. The smell of hot pop-corn and peanuts came stealing from the dining-room. With a sudden blush of mortification, he made a move to go, say­ ing, “ You are having a party, and don’t know how to get rid of me! It has taken me long to see it. Pardon .my stupidity.: May I troubl§| you for my hat?” “ Don’t go, please! You are mistaken! I am not having a party. Oh, Mr. Felton, won’t you- please sin g ?” He did so. At the. .conclusion of his selection an encore was! heard from the dining-room. Ross quietly wheeled from the piano, found his hat, and opened the front door. “ So pleased,that you called!” muttered the hostess. “ Do call again:—-when you can stay longer.” “ Thanks most awfully!” snorted ¡Ross. Only an hour since he had entered the house, but ikjseemed a lifetime. Luella felt that she had nowhere to go. She couldn’t sleep, ,*s|o she turned the lights out and crept to the landing of the stairs. ■Such fun as they were haying in the dining room! It seemed cruel that they could enjoy themselv|||, so completely without her. She heard the dishes rattling and she knew that the little supper which they had all helped to prepare was ready. Max was showing card tricks— Luella’s own. Luella racked her head unhappily against thejrailing. They were getting along so well without her. They did not want her. Luella’s tears !>egan to fall softly. She heard, as in a dream, the final breaking up of the party. She was trodden upon by the bedward-going family when they came upstairs. “ What’s this ?” exclaimed the mother. “ It’s Luella'! What are you doing there ?'- Didn’t you have’ a nicevevening?’g ;| The sleepy Patricia and Max waited upstairs so as not to miss a probable scene. 32 THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A L D “ I’ve had a dreadful evening,” gulped Luella. “ But ¡most dread­ ful when I saw how rude I had been to you! Indeed I did not mean it.” “ Don’t cry, it is all right now. I thought you were enjoying yourself, but at that, I was thinking of you every moment.” Max pranced into his room and out again with a pin-tray, which he tried to insert under the weeper’f^ehin. “ Might save enough pancake batter for breakfast cakes!” mur­ mured Max. The strain of Luella’s “ evening at home” gave way in comfor­ table humor. ' “ TOODLES” To Toodles,Igor many days . after he was born, the world was a vast, gloomy cavern. During the first days of ¡his life his home was in a coal bin, im­ mediately under the culinary department of a State Teachers College, where Tabby, his mother, had found a safe nest for her kittens. To their home Miss Howells, their mistress, sometimes came, bearing a flashlight to see whereon she trod. It was the ligiht of the electric torch that gave to Toodles his first impression of something existing away from his brothers and sisteri'land his mother’s* side, and it brought to him also his discovery of vision. He could smell, he could hear, he could feel—but in that coal bin under the State Teachers College kitchen he had never seen until the torch came. At first it frightened him; then it puzzled him, and his fear changed to an im­ mense curiosity. He would be looking straight at it, when all at once it would disappear. This was when his mistress would extinguish the light. Then it would flash back at him. out of. the darkness with .suca startling suddenness that he would involuntarily shrink closer to his mother, who always made ¿Strange noises which tlemed to mean, “ Don’t be afraid, kittens; Mother is here.” Toodles, of course, would never know the Story of his-birth. He would never know how his mother had been found, half-frozen in the snow, and tenderly cared for. In him nature was already beginning its wonderful work, but it would never go beyond certain limitations. Nature could tell him nothing of his father’s wanderings until he finally met Tabby and of the beginning of their strange adventures THE T E A C H E R S COLLE GE H E R A L D 33 amidst the elevating influence of the Teachers College, At first, and for ¡many days, it was all mother; brothers, and sis-tors. Even after his eyes had opened wide and he had stumbled, with wavering tread, to and fro in the darkness, nothing existed to him save their little feline family. And then came that fateful day when two greenish balls of fire came nearer and nearer, a little at a time, and very cautiously. Here­ tofore, Tabby had been here to investigate all new things before she allowed them to approach the orange crate, where her family was cleverly hidden. But today she- was absent on a food-getting expedisi tion and her babies were left at the mercy of this green-eyed thing which was approaching them through the darkness.-: Still slowly, as if not quite sure of what he would find, their father came to them, and with pitiful meows of terror they ran and tumbled toward safety—their orange-crate h'ome. And old Tom, their father, was curious—mightily curious. He sniffed. The interest shown toy him was not merely a parental one. In search of possible rivals, he quickly singled out Toodles’ two broth­ ers and with a swift bite at the basé of the neck, severed the jugular vein. Toodles and his sisters ■cowered in the furthest corner of their home. The sniffling at the entrance ceased, and old Tom went away, leaving tragedy in his wake. Tabby decided on a change of habitat f,or her remaining'f|on and two daughters. So, grasping them by the loose skin at the base -of the neck, she transported them, one by one,-, to the light and freedom of the school woodshed: As Tabby carried each kitten up the long flight of stone steps which led from the coabbin, across, the sunnjq wind-swept space of ground and into the woodshed, each kitten exper­ ienced a curious change in the world they had known. They had known nothing but blackness,. And now this: blackness Seemed to be breaking up into strange shapes and shadows. Once, as they- ad­ vanced, the f la s g o f a fiery streak above them- Ta- gleam of. sun­ shine—startled them greatly and their shrill meows were rnuffled by Tabby’s firm grip on the nape of. their necks. . Then -followed many-happy days for the kitten family of three; Their chief delight was tç-.tease their mother who Bore their playful pranks patiently, until she grew tired of being mauled by tiny teeth and claws. A reproSmg spank would always ,bring back the proper respect the-kittens had for their mother, and which they had momen­ tarily lost. Sometimes^ Tabby brought home a mouse and the kittens would go about the business o f dissecting it. quite .earnestly. The little family had remained intact -after the villianouS visit, of Tom; but the feline home circle wasysoon to be broken up. Toodles’ 34 THE T E A C H E R S C O L L EG E H E R A L D two 'sisters were given a new home by two ladies whpcame one day. to select two kittens from the three remaining members of the kitten family. They said they did not*like the- markings or mien of the kit­ ten who cowered so closely in the ■corner, among the shadows, but that they much preferredi-the black-and-white^ and brown-and-white markings5*:and the sprightly manner of the two sisters. 'So Toodles was left to his mother and most of the time to himself. To amuse himself he devised new games and new ways of tor­ menting his mother. His chief delight was to crouch, with his fury stomach touching the ground, at a little distance from his mother, and when Tabby’s tail came into range, give it a viscious swipe with his paw. For this he received a reproving cuff on his head that sometimes sent him away sorrowing, depending on the force of the blow. At last Toodles'was taken away by a boy who admired the “ M” on his forehead, etched in brown fur against a grey background, and the white star on his breast. The first night at his new home Tood­ les was lonely, oh, so lonely. How he wished that mother were near to hear his; cries and comfort him. But she did not answer him and he s'don cried himself to sleep. The next day his loneliness; was partially forgotten when he found that his master cared to play with him, and they had a delight-, fui time. ; Toodles soon came to look forward to these romps with hl’si master with pleasure, and continued to enjoy them until he was quite grown. But with growth, new instincts afperted themselves,, and he be­ gan to seek a mate. He found that he was not the only cat in the neighborhood who had ambitions along that line. At nightfall the backyard fences teemed with cats of ail ■sizes, shapes and colors, who hurled their love messages, ¡on wings of song, toward the moon. Their burning ardors were usually cooled by water thrown from a second-story window Or an article of wearing apparel, which had outlived its usefulness, from the same source. In spi|e of the pursuit of others, Toodles managed to woo and win, (so it seemed to him at times), the affection of a small feline, with a cheerful disposition and black-and-white markings, who ans­ wered to the name of Tilly. Although Toodles was valiant in love, he by some strange streak in his nature, always carefully avoided a fight. Anyone conversant with the species, felis domestica, or common house cat, will at once recognize the awkward position in which our hero was placed by this fact. H isjnost persistent enemy, and rival for the affection oiSTilly, was a cat who was owned by a lady who lived next door to his master. This cat was of uncertain THE T E A C H E R S C OLLE GE H E R A L D 35 disposition, grey in color almost to the point of' blackness, and was possessed of a fierce love of combat. He lived up to his nam e, Trix, because he knew quite a few of them. His favorite trick was the disgracing of Toodles in front of Tilly. He would swagger around as if he expected all of the other cats to do him homage. Trix thought, even with the show that he put oh, that Tilly never Seemed friendly to him but always encouraged the advances of Toodles, so he contrived a plan whereby he- might acjj complish the downfall- of Toodles. The clean-up troupe for once had completed preparation for a new day before the day began. The sky had been washed and then roughed a bit to give it a sort of careless perfection; the grass and trees had been given a brisk shower of dew; and some one must have suggested new songs to the birds. And so the day began. Toodles, lying in the cool grass, enjoyed it to the utmost. He was contemplating on paying a visit to his lovely lady and he rolled over and over in an ecstasy of happiness. So engrossed in his reverie was he, that he failed to notice the stealthy approach of his neighbor and arch-enemy, Trix. With scarcely a ripple of the tall -grass through which he crept, Trix approached the unsuspecting Toodles, and the fight began. With a single wild leap Trix pounced on Toodles, his teeth fast­ ened like a red-hot vise in Toodles shoulder. An agonized meow burst from Toodles and he spat back defiantly. For a moment they separated, glaring defiance at each other. Each held his head stiffly to one side and emitted terrific growls and utterings which were in­ tended to frighten his opponent, They closed in, fighting hard and fast, and a veritable flurry of fur filled the air about the combatants, coming in short, sharp jerks, as claws and teeth found a resting place, in the bodies of both. At last, severely beaten, Toodles made a wild dash for freedom with Trix close behind him and gaining at every leap. He succeeded in finding safety under theSaek porch of his master’s domicile. Seeing further attempts to inflict punishment on Toodles futile, Trix strutted away in search of other cats to conquer. After carefully inspecting the landscape and seeing no sign of Trix, Toodles came forth and started for the vacant barn where his lady love made her home. On the route to it he had to cross a busy, thoroughfare. When- in the middle of the thoroughfare, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to make his toilet in preparation for his appearance before his adored, so upset in both mind and body had he been by the battle. Unmindful of the automobiles whizzing by on all sides, he sat down on his haunches and calmly proceeded to smooth his fur and 36 THE T E A C H E R S C O LE E TE ’ H E R A L D lick his wounds SO that, when he had finished he felt quité capable p f making a résfipctable'showing. That-he had not chosen his dress­ ing room wisely was attested- fb by the fact that he became an anti, mate object upon'which drivers of all kinds, and conditions of; cars, from the racing Ford do the lumbering 'Cadillac, vented, their wrath in' no gentle, terms as they swerved their cars to avoid ending his existence. All drivers are not alike, however-, and when a huge truck rolled ponderously around the corner and down the thoroughfare,’ it’s driver decided to leave the decision to 'Poodles as to whether he wanted to live or not. Toodles decided in the affirmative and; with springy leap, jumped to safety. He reached the barn he- was seeking without further adventur|. and found Trix strutting around the objecfSof his travels;;Tilly. The presence of Trix changed matters considerably and Toodles sat down to think things over. At that moment Trix spied Toodles and would have asserted .his'superiority again but for Tilly who rushed a-t him spitting female ifeline oathá; ' Amazed at the suddenness of her onslaught, Trix gave ground, Then Tilly calmly turned, looked at Toodles with that “come hither” ¿look in her ey|g, and started for the coolness' of the barn. Tdodlpif with a furtive glance at Trix, no#thoroughly,: cowed, fjunk after her. Trix watched them go, making no attempt to break up the affee^ tion which .very plainly existed between Tilly and Toodles. With bitterness in his heart Trix; thought to him plf, “ I never, did Under­ stand the female of the species. I gave that insignificant Toodles the. lickin’ of his life and yet she takes no notice of me other than to warn/mjato keep my paws Off her man. Oh well, such is life-.” And with that parting soliloquy, on life, Trix ambled. homeward.. ; M Y EPITAPH By Clarence Glessner When dirt and stones, press, on my face, And I have finished life’s fast pace;...!« I hope that;|str.olling .by my tomb,..
