The Lock Haven State Teachevs
College was again host to the
Pennsylvania State Education Association last Thursday and Friday
when the Central Convention District met in its eleventh annual
convention. The theme was "Our
Schools—A Co-operative Enterprise." Thursday morning, after a
pleasing opening address of welcome by Dr. Armstrong, Dr. R. C.
Hutchison, president of Washington and Jefferson College, gave an
excellent address on the sub,iect,
"The Emotional Center in Government and Education."
The president of the Kutztown
State Teachers College, Q. A. W.
Rohrbach, spoke about "The Taxpayers, the Schoolmen, and Our
Legislators" Thursday evening.
The highlight of the general program Friday morning was an informative lecture by Frederic
Snyder, of New York City, "The
Lash in the News Flash." Elbert
K. Fretwell, of the Columbia University Teachers College, presented an address, "The Public School
as a Community Investment," Friday night as well as Mr. Snyder,
who spoke about, "Keeping Ahead
of the Headlines."
Departmental programs were
also featured Thursday and Friday. Those meeting at the College
were the College Superintendents,
the District Superintendents and
Supervising Principals, the Rural
and Graded Schools, and the Home
Economics Teachers; other sectional meetings were held at the
Lock Haven High School.
This annual Convention is very
beneficial to the teachers. It gives
them opportunity to be in touch
with the leaders in educational
thought. They will be able to contact new ideas and meet new personalities that will send them back
to their work with new vigor received from the Intellectual stimulus afforded. It is essential that
such occasions as these avise, fov
the teacher's task is one that requires frequent stimulation and
enlightenment. The past few years
have been difficult ones for the
schools, and it is largely through
the efforts of groups such as the
P. S. E. A. that a cooperative spirit
has predominated, and that the
system has not broken down.

The Queen's Taste No. 2
The ovdev of sewing seems to
be a pvoblem at times, so let us
give a few basic principles we
should follow. The hostess is
served fivst, then those to the
right of the hostess in ovder as
far as the host. Next the ones' at
the left of the hostess in order as
fav as the host. The host is sewed
last.
No one should begin eating until
the hostess stavts. Watch the hostess—she sets the example at her
table. Do not butter an entive slice
of bvead at one time. Bveak the
slice into quavtevs and spread each
one separately and only as you
need it. Do not cut up all of your
serving of meat at once—a bite a
time is the rule.
The napkins should not be folded until all have finished eating.
Then the hostess lays her napkin
dov.n as a signal for the rest to
follow.
Maybe you forgot that anklets
do not appear in the dining room.
Sweaters and skirts are not proper
dinner clothes. You men could
wear coats to lunch.

GOT
Poor—I have GOTTEN it from the
mailbox.
Better—I have GOT it fvom the
mailbox.
Why? Because GOT is more generally vecognized as a correct
form.
Poov—I have GOT a dollar.
Bettev—I HAVE a dollar.
Why? "Have got," indicating possession, is a pleonasm—the use
of too many wovds to express an
idea. In this case "have" means
as much as "have got."
Don't say:

All in the Game
A back-flash into the histovy of athletic spovts would show that
they have often been the divevsions of the few, and handed down to
the many as cvunibs fvom the table. The early Olympiads were exercise ground for the aristocracy, until professional athletes drove games
into disrepute. The English Henry V ran down the royal stags with
his nobles while his subjects weve forced to make a national sport of
archery so there would be expert bowmen fov his ma.iesty's wavs.
Last yeav the Physical Education couvse was added to the curriculum of this College and new promise in its athletic life was born:
SPORTS FOR ALL. Organized teams provide for those with special
talents, but for those ol us v,ho are ''out for the fun of it," there
is no limit to oppovtunities for self-development. The necessity of
sitting through four hours of classes a day is stagnating; without the
release of vigorous physical activity some part of each day our mental
alertness is bound to weaken. For these the College offers as intramural sports, boxing (begun so auspiciously last season under Mr.
Bossert), basketball, tennis and track; fov the givls theve is hockey,
basketball, volley ball, folk dancing and archevy, which alas, is being
given small attention; as a stimulus, what of a givls vs. bo.ys avchevy
meet? MUrmuvs, winch it is hoped will be vealized soon, ave undev
ground about a givls' vifle team. Looking fovwavd to the wintev evenings, several ping-pong tables in the Gym might be welcomed; this
game has the advantage of inexpensive equipment; tournaments would
insure wide pavticipation. If sufficient interest is shown, tables and
sets would be easily provided.
As fov the inevitable, but harrowing "blues," it's a serious case
that can withstand a fast set of tennis ov a stiff tvack session. Try it!

Ecavlet-Iettev day from the standpoint of festival production.
Social dancing became a recognized intva-curricular activity last
year. This yeav, a new scheme is
being inauguvated, which divides
the leavnevs into "buddies," each
pair with one "teacher" responsible for their progress.
At the commencement of the
second nine weeks, volley ball will
supplant lield ball, while basketball
will usurp the place occupied by
hockey. Horseback riding, individual gymnastics, and social dancing will end, but other activities
will continue throughout the semester. "WATCH THE BULLETIN BOARD"—is the slogan that
means good times ahead for every
participant. Many activities are
open to all students, but some are
reserved for the meinbers of the
Women's Athletic
Association.

noted archeologists appearing on
the chapel program, Wednesday,
Septeniber 30, in the College Auditorium.
Quickly capturing the attention
of the audience by a few well
chosen remarks concerning the
history of the Mayans in relation
to the early Spaniards, comparative civilizations, religions, and
governments—profusely illustrating his lecture with motion pictures—he thoroughly set forth the
possible origin, history, past and
present, of the vanished Maya
tribes."
Dr. and Mrs. Carnes, having
been on a number of archeological
parties to the Yucatan, were able
to give a splendid and well rounded program on these people and
their civilization. Touching-upon
such points as the sacrifice well
into which the most beautiful Indian maidens were thrown in an
effort to appease the "rain god,"
the massive pyi-amids which are
greater in size than those of
Egypt, Dr. Carnes showed the superior development of the Mayans
over their conquerors, who destroyed all possible traces of the
Indians because they had resisted
their efforts to convert them to
the Christian faith. Little wonder
is there that these Indians resisted
so bravely, for the methods used
to convert heathens in those days
was far from Christ-like.
Mrs. Carnes then appeared upon
the stage dressed in a beautiful
white dress of the Indians now
living upon that peninsula. A full
draping white gown, decorated
with brilliant red motifs, it was
especially attractive. Using one of
the students. Miss Sara Sykes, as
a model. Miss Carnes showed further costumes of the young Indian
maidens. During this part of the
lecture, modern illustrations of
the costumes of the people were
given, comparing the freedom of
the American girl to that of the
Yucatan maiden.
With them wei-e two pets,
brought back from the country;
most interesting animals, called
the "Jeeps," by their owners.
Following the conclusion of
their lecture, the audience was invited to come upon the stage and
view or ask questions concerning
the many articles displayed during
the lecture course. Many of those
present availed themselves of the
opportunity despite the length of
the lecture, attesting to the interest which they so ably kept at the
maximum.

The Lock Haven State Teachevs
College was again host to the
Pennsylvania State Education Association last Thursday and Friday
when the Central Convention District met in its eleventh annual
convention. The theme was "Our
Schools—A Co-operative Enterprise." Thursday morning, after a
pleasing opening address of welcome by Dr. Armstrong, Dr. R. C.
Hutchison, president of Washington and Jefferson College, gave an
excellent address on the sub,iect,
"The Emotional Center in Government and Education."
The president of the Kutztown
State Teachers College, Q. A. W.
Rohrbach, spoke about "The Taxpayers, the Schoolmen, and Our
Legislators" Thursday evening.
The highlight of the general program Friday morning was an informative lecture by Frederic
Snyder, of New York City, "The
Lash in the News Flash." Elbert
K. Fretwell, of the Columbia University Teachers College, presented an address, "The Public School
as a Community Investment," Friday night as well as Mr. Snyder,
who spoke about, "Keeping Ahead
of the Headlines."
Departmental programs were
also featured Thursday and Friday. Those meeting at the College
were the College Superintendents,
the District Superintendents and
Supervising Principals, the Rural
and Graded Schools, and the Home
Economics Teachers; other sectional meetings were held at the
Lock Haven High School.
This annual Convention is very
beneficial to the teachers. It gives
them opportunity to be in touch
with the leaders in educational
thought. They will be able to contact new ideas and meet new personalities that will send them back
to their work with new vigor received from the Intellectual stimulus afforded. It is essential that
such occasions as these avise, fov
the teacher's task is one that requires frequent stimulation and

The ovdev of sewing seems to

give a few basic principles we
should follow. The hostess is
served fivst, then those to the
right of the hostess in ovder as
far as the host. Next the ones' at
the left of the hostess in order as
fav as the host. The host is sewed
last.
No one should begin eating until
the hostess stavts. Watch the hostess—she sets the example at her
table. Do not butter an entive slice
of bvead at one time. Bveak the
slice into quavtevs and spread each
one separately and only as you
need it. Do not cut up all of your
serving of meat at once—a bite a
time is the rule.
The napkins should not be folded until all have finished eating.
Then the hostess lays her napkin
dov.n as a signal for the rest to
follow.

Why? "Have got," indicating possession, is a pleonasm—the use

All in the Game
A back-flash into the histovy of athletic spovts would show that
they have often been the divevsions of the few, and handed down to
the many as cvunibs fvom the table. The early Olympiads were exercise ground for the aristocracy, until professional athletes drove games
into disrepute. The English Henry V ran down the royal stags with
his nobles while his subjects weve forced to make a national sport of
archery so there would be expert bowmen fov his ma.iesty's wavs.
Last yeav the Physical Education couvse was added to the curriculum of this College and new promise in its athletic life was born:
SPORTS FOR ALL. Organized teams provide for those with special
talents, but for those ol us v,ho are ''out for the fun of it," there
is no limit to oppovtunities for self-development. The necessity of
sitting through four hours of classes a day is stagnating; without the
release of vigorous physical activity some part of each day our mental
alertness is bound to weaken. For these the College offers as intramural sports, boxing (begun so auspiciously last season under Mr.
Bossert), basketball, tennis and track; fov the givls theve is hockey,
basketball, volley ball, folk dancing and archevy, which alas, is being
given small attention; as a stimulus, what of a givls vs. bo.ys avchevy
meet? MUrmuvs, winch it is hoped will be vealized soon, ave undev
ground about a givls' vifle team. Looking fovwavd to the wintev evenings, several ping-pong tables in the Gym might be welcomed; this
game has the advantage of inexpensive equipment; tournaments would
insure wide pavticipation. If sufficient interest is shown, tables and
sets would be easily provided.
As fov the inevitable, but harrowing "blues," it's a serious case
that can withstand a fast set of tennis ov a stiff tvack session. Try it!

Ecavlet-Iettev day from the standpoint of festival production.
Social dancing became a recognized intva-curricular activity last
year. This yeav, a new scheme is
being inauguvated, which divides
the leavnevs into "buddies," each
pair with one "teacher" responsible for their progress.
At the commencement of the
second nine weeks, volley ball will
supplant lield ball, while basketball
will usurp the place occupied by
hockey. Horseback riding, individual gymnastics, and social dancing will end, but other activities
will continue throughout the semester. "WATCH THE BULLETIN BOARD"—is the slogan that
means good times ahead for every
participant. Many activities are
open to all students, but some are
reserved for the meinbers of the
Women's Athletic
Association.

noted archeologists appearing on
the chapel program, Wednesday,
Septeniber 30, in the College Auditorium.
Quickly capturing the attention
of the audience by a few well
chosen remarks concerning the
history of the Mayans in relation
to the early Spaniards, comparative civilizations, religions, and
governments—profusely illustrating his lecture with motion pictures—he thoroughly set forth the
possible origin, history, past and
present, of the vanished Maya
tribes."
Dr. and Mrs. Carnes, having
been on a number of archeological
parties to the Yucatan, were able
to give a splendid and well rounded program on these people and
their civilization. Touching-upon
such points as the sacrifice well
into which the most beautiful Indian maidens were thrown in an
effort to appease the "rain god,"
the massive pyi-amids which are
greater in size than those of
Egypt, Dr. Carnes showed the superior development of the Mayans
over their conquerors, who destroyed all possible traces of the
Indians because they had resisted
their efforts to convert them to
the Christian faith. Little wonder
is there that these Indians resisted
so bravely, for the methods used
to convert heathens in those days
was far from Christ-like.
Mrs. Carnes then appeared upon
the stage dressed in a beautiful
white dress of the Indians now
living upon that peninsula. A full
draping white gown, decorated
with brilliant red motifs, it was
especially attractive. Using one of
the students. Miss Sara Sykes, as
a model. Miss Carnes showed further costumes of the young Indian
maidens. During this part of the
lecture, modern illustrations of
the costumes of the people were
given, comparing the freedom of
the American girl to that of the
Yucatan maiden.
With them wei-e two pets,

the "Jeeps," by their owners.
Following the conclusion of
their lecture, the audience was invited to come upon the stage and
view or ask questions concerning
the many articles displayed during
the lecture course. Many of those
present availed themselves of the
opportunity despite the length of
the lecture, attesting to the interest which they so ably kept at the
maximum.
