MENUS WELL PLANNED
We have often heard that "By
their deeds or words we shall know
them." This philosophical statement may well be applied to personal dividends. Our freshmen who
possess some specially developed
abilities became known long before the rest.
Everyone knew Peggy Stouck
the second day of school. Yes, she
was the girl with the tan car, but
she was more than that. She could
tap and was tvained to the extent
that she was a pvof essional in this
form of art. Peggy has a class in
dancing. Unfortunately, all of us
have not had a chance to enjoy her
skill. (Maybe Mr. Lehman could
arrange a chapel pvogvam out of
the personnel suggested in this
article.)
Then we have in our midst two
professional pianists fvom Williamsport. We've all been introduced to Vera Lyons. Who could
forget that sublime chapel program which she and her brother
presented last year? Through the
power of her skill she guides the
Bel Canto Society to a happy destiny. As for Ruth, we can't say so
much, only because we haven't
learned to know her and the pianoforte. Miss Conn tells us that she
has been enjoying the pleasure
provided to her by music for a
great many years. If we recall correctly, she did play one morning
for devotions in chapel.
Of course we know Ruth Hunt.
Musicians are the result of inborn
tendencies, interests, and development by practice. We are sure
Ruth must have been fortunate
enough to possess all of these qualities. Besides being pianist in chapel she is organist in the Episcopal
Church.
Harry Callahan, and Ruth Simon, two more of our newcomei-s,
are also capable of expressing
their emotions by the ivory keyboard.
To change the type of instruments, we find that we have amateurs in another field. John Yon
and Jack Livingston possess the
indispensable chairs in our school
orchestra. John is especially interested in music and recently, just
before girls' meetings, he played
seveval selections for us to put us
in a good mood. Of course it is

EDITORIAL
"Extra Dividends"
Few of us actually realize the tvue values and oppovtunities that
a college education aft'ovds. The fact that a few of the many tvavevse
the voad thvough college with little thought of common study, but are
intently interested in social activities, leads to the common conclusion
that a college education is one gvand and glovious jamboree.
College, to the student, is a 4 yeav project out of which he expects
to gain a background fov a future vocation, a puvposeful outlook on
life in general, and a confidence of mind to aid him in the ensuing
emergencies of living. That old and homely quotation, "One gets out
of life what one puts into it," can be well applied to our college caveev.
In spite of ouvselves college does make an indentation on our
minds and whethev the impression is good, bad, ov indiffeveiit depends
solely upon us. We may exevt ouv intellect only to one-thivd of its
capacity, but ouv dividends are there to be had for the digging. Why
not try from today on, .Senior, Junior, Sophomove, Fveshman, to absovb
and gi-asp youv vightful heritage of the dividends of education? Without stockholders the mavket will cvash. Without dividends we all will
cvash.
F.E.R.A.
In a fovniev issue of the "Times" we published an avticle concerning the govevnment assistance which Lock Haven Teachevs College has obtained in order to help a numbev of the students finance
theiv education. With so little money and so many students in need
of it, it is almost impossible to stvess the impovtance of honesty and
unselfishness in this mattev which concerns so gveat a numbev of
people. Quite obviously many of the students heve at school are able
to pay fov the cost of theiv education, but would like to have money
for little odds and ends for which they are unable to get enough
money from theiv pavents. Not a few of these people ave holding
down student positions at the college and ave making it havd for a
numbev of other students whose major iirobleni is not that of obtaining enough money for minor things, but that of "scraping" together
enough to pay fov their next nine weeks' enrollment and housing fees.
Ouv President has done his best in trying to give positions to
those students who, he thought, veally needed the money, and has requested on seveval occasions that theve be a voluntavy veduction in the
numbev of those holding jobs. Howevev, as can be expected, some of
the students have taken unfaiv advantage of this limited oppovtunity.
Does this mean you?
story Hour Held at Town Library
Every Saturday a lavge group of
enthusiastic children is cai-ried to
faraway lands, to castles in Spain
and to animals' paradise with stories told by College students. This
Story Hour is conducted by the
Story Telling Class at L.H.S.T.C.
and is composed of Alice McGarvey, Jane Moran, Arlene Dunkle,
Dovothy Schmidt and Richavd McCloskey. The time is from 10 to
11 A. M. From the unexpected responses received from the children,
the teachers feel that the hour is
very delightfully spent. Later on
oviginal stovies are to be related,
thus giving the students another
outlet for their intellectual ability.
There have been fvequent inquivies from students outside the
class as to whether or not it is permissible for them to help with the
Stovy Hour. Miss Arey wishes to
assure all interested people that
they are invited to participate in
the activity. This available experience open to all students is valuable. It is practical. An opportunity is "knocking" now and
throughout the semester.

CORNER
tivities are called extra-curricular
because we realize that they aren't
the valuable part of the college
and are not absolutely essential.
They are additional interests.
The aim of the college is to provide definite preparation along a
certain line. The studies are the
means to this end. To lay greater
stress on the value of the extracurricular activities serves only to
stress pleasant associations which
may or may not be beneficial and
which may be formed elsewhere
than in college. The studies can
not be easily or very successfully
attained anywhere but in the college.
Therefore, the value of the college lies in the studies because
they satisfy the aim of college.
In Extra-Curricular Activities
The value lies in extra-curricular activities. Extra-curricular activities may be defined as those
legitimate activities of the school
not otherwise provided for.
The main puvpose of education
is to prepare for good citizenship.
To be a good citizen we must meet
the problems of society intelligently. The regular work of the school
offevs compavatively few opportunities for the development of
desirable social ideals and habits.
It is concerned mostly with the
learning of facts. The main purpose of extra-curricular activities
is to give the student opportunity
for pvactice in social relationships.
With our changing concepts of
education came the introduction
of extra-curricular activities. The
future development points to the
organization of the school similar
to the pvesent organization of extra-curricular activities.
The social contacts made in
extra-curricular activities cannot
be replaced by any work of the
class voom. The student who is intevested in extra-curricular wovk
is better fitted to go out and take
his place in life than the student
who confines himself to the regular curriculum.

ADDRESSES IN
American Education Week was
introduced in 1921 by the joint
cooperation of the American Legion, the United States Offlce of
Education and the National Education Association. These three organizations each year select the
general theme which is obsei-ved
throughout the United States. The
theme selected for this, the fifteenth observance of American
Education Week, is the School and
Democracy.
Lock Haven Teachers College
observed Education Week by a
sevies of chapel programs in which
members of the faculty addressed
the students. On Monday, November 11, Mr. Cox, supervisor of the
Junior High School Training Depavtment, gave an interesting talk
on "The School and the Citizen."
The general theme of his speech
was the citizenship training of the
child in public schools, based on
ideals, appreciations, attitudes, activities and relationships. Mr. Cox
stressed those attitudes toward
God, the Church, the Home, and
the State. He concluded his speech
with a brief summary, showing
how the school has participated in
developing these activities.
On Wednesday, November 13,
Mv. Fleming spoke to the students
on another phase of education,
"The School and the Changing Social Order." The major problems
discussed by Mr. Fleming were:
speed in training, industry, and
living, which causes mental speeding up, resulting in hospitality towavd a changing civilization; centralization in family, church, and
social order, and standardization
of gveatev powevs in scattered and
remote parts of our social structure. He reviewed briefly the turn
of events in our civilization and
stressed the need for a school product more tolerant of the gap between yesterday and today.
On Friday, November 15, Mr.
Sullivan's address to th« students
concerned "The School and the
Nation." He traced the history of
education from the early colonial
times to the present day, stating
that the United States has always
stood for education, doing more
for fvee education than any other
country in the world. Mr. Sullivan
purposed to instill in the minds of
the pupils the ideal that everyone
should have education.

We have often heard that "By

possess some specially developed
abilities became known long before the rest.
Everyone knew Peggy Stouck

she was more than that. She could

that she was a pvof essional in this

much, only because we haven't
learned to know her and the pianoforte. Miss Conn tells us that she
has been enjoying the pleasure

for devotions in chapel.

EDITORIAL
"Extra Dividends"
Few of us actually realize the tvue values and oppovtunities that
a college education aft'ovds. The fact that a few of the many tvavevse
the voad thvough college with little thought of common study, but are
intently interested in social activities, leads to the common conclusion
that a college education is one gvand and glovious jamboree.
College, to the student, is a 4 yeav project out of which he expects
to gain a background fov a future vocation, a puvposeful outlook on
life in general, and a confidence of mind to aid him in the ensuing
emergencies of living. That old and homely quotation, "One gets out
of life what one puts into it," can be well applied to our college caveev.
In spite of ouvselves college does make an indentation on our
minds and whethev the impression is good, bad, ov indiffeveiit depends
solely upon us. We may exevt ouv intellect only to one-thivd of its
capacity, but ouv dividends are there to be had for the digging. Why
not try from today on, .Senior, Junior, Sophomove, Fveshman, to absovb
and gi-asp youv vightful heritage of the dividends of education? Without stockholders the mavket will cvash. Without dividends we all will
cvash.
F.E.R.A.
In a fovniev issue of the "Times" we published an avticle concerning the govevnment assistance which Lock Haven Teachevs College has obtained in order to help a numbev of the students finance
theiv education. With so little money and so many students in need
of it, it is almost impossible to stvess the impovtance of honesty and
unselfishness in this mattev which concerns so gveat a numbev of
people. Quite obviously many of the students heve at school are able
to pay fov the cost of theiv education, but would like to have money
for little odds and ends for which they are unable to get enough
money from theiv pavents. Not a few of these people ave holding
down student positions at the college and ave making it havd for a
numbev of other students whose major iirobleni is not that of obtaining enough money for minor things, but that of "scraping" together
enough to pay fov their next nine weeks' enrollment and housing fees.
Ouv President has done his best in trying to give positions to
those students who, he thought, veally needed the money, and has requested on seveval occasions that theve be a voluntavy veduction in the
numbev of those holding jobs. Howevev, as can be expected, some of
the students have taken unfaiv advantage of this limited oppovtunity.
Does this mean you?
story Hour Held at Town Library
Every Saturday a lavge group of
enthusiastic children is cai-ried to
faraway lands, to castles in Spain
and to animals' paradise with stories told by College students. This
Story Hour is conducted by the
Story Telling Class at L.H.S.T.C.
and is composed of Alice McGarvey, Jane Moran, Arlene Dunkle,
Dovothy Schmidt and Richavd McCloskey. The time is from 10 to
11 A. M. From the unexpected responses received from the children,
the teachers feel that the hour is
very delightfully spent. Later on
oviginal stovies are to be related,
thus giving the students another
outlet for their intellectual ability.
There have been fvequent inquivies from students outside the
class as to whether or not it is permissible for them to help with the
Stovy Hour. Miss Arey wishes to
assure all interested people that
they are invited to participate in
the activity. This available experience open to all students is valuable. It is practical. An opportunity is "knocking" now and
throughout the semester.

CORNER
tivities are called extra-curricular
because we realize that they aren't
the valuable part of the college
and are not absolutely essential.
They are additional interests.
The aim of the college is to provide definite preparation along a
certain line. The studies are the
means to this end. To lay greater
stress on the value of the extracurricular activities serves only to
stress pleasant associations which
may or may not be beneficial and
which may be formed elsewhere
than in college. The studies can
not be easily or very successfully
attained anywhere but in the college.
Therefore, the value of the college lies in the studies because
they satisfy the aim of college.
In Extra-Curricular Activities
The value lies in extra-curricular activities. Extra-curricular activities may be defined as those
legitimate activities of the school
not otherwise provided for.
The main puvpose of education
is to prepare for good citizenship.
To be a good citizen we must meet
the problems of society intelligently. The regular work of the school
offevs compavatively few opportunities for the development of
desirable social ideals and habits.
It is concerned mostly with the
learning of facts. The main purpose of extra-curricular activities
is to give the student opportunity
for pvactice in social relationships.
With our changing concepts of
education came the introduction
of extra-curricular activities. The
future development points to the
organization of the school similar
to the pvesent organization of extra-curricular activities.
The social contacts made in
extra-curricular activities cannot
be replaced by any work of the
class voom. The student who is intevested in extra-curricular wovk
is better fitted to go out and take
his place in life than the student

ADDRESSES IN
American Education Week was
introduced in 1921 by the joint
cooperation of the American Legion, the United States Offlce of
Education and the National Education Association. These three organizations each year select the
general theme which is obsei-ved
throughout the United States. The
theme selected for this, the fifteenth observance of American
Education Week, is the School and
Democracy.
Lock Haven Teachers College
observed Education Week by a
sevies of chapel programs in which
members of the faculty addressed
the students. On Monday, November 11, Mr. Cox, supervisor of the
Junior High School Training Depavtment, gave an interesting talk
on "The School and the Citizen."
The general theme of his speech
was the citizenship training of the
child in public schools, based on
ideals, appreciations, attitudes, activities and relationships. Mr. Cox
stressed those attitudes toward
God, the Church, the Home, and
the State. He concluded his speech
with a brief summary, showing
how the school has participated in
developing these activities.
On Wednesday, November 13,
Mv. Fleming spoke to the students
on another phase of education,
"The School and the Changing Social Order." The major problems
discussed by Mr. Fleming were:
speed in training, industry, and
living, which causes mental speeding up, resulting in hospitality towavd a changing civilization; centralization in family, church, and
social order, and standardization
of gveatev powevs in scattered and
remote parts of our social structure. He reviewed briefly the turn
of events in our civilization and
stressed the need for a school product more tolerant of the gap between yesterday and today.
On Friday, November 15, Mr.
Sullivan's address to th« students
concerned "The School and the
Nation." He traced the history of
education from the early colonial
times to the present day, stating
that the United States has always
stood for education, doing more
for fvee education than any other
country in the world. Mr. Sullivan
purposed to instill in the minds of
the pupils the ideal that everyone
should have education.
