Great Musical
Flesher Furnishes Surprise, Defeating- Moose—Mary Johnston Leads the Girls
Helen .Vlyrick and Krnest Schrot carried off the tennis championship cups
for the summer session of 1924. That
means that Potter County and Clearfiebl
County share the honors for the tennis
season. Keubeii Moose, champion last
sumnier, unexpectedl.v went down to defeat in the semi-linals this year, Andrew
Flesher taking three hard-fought sets
out of four from him, only to go down
before Krnest Schrot's placing in the final
match. Helen Myrick found the girls'
tournament easy sailing, except when
Grace English gave her a scare in the
second round, taking the second set, but
losing the third and deciding set 6-2.
The first round matches were reported
in the last issue of Normal Times, with
the exception of the Bolin-Weagle,y set
to, whieh Weagley managed to liite off
with diflicult,y, 6-."!, 6-2, ,1-6, 6-0. In the
second round, however, Weagley bit off
more tlian lie could chew, Flesher trimming him thoroughly, 6-1, 6-1, G-2. Both
Moose and Schrot had eas.y sailing in
this round. Moose walloping Sones in
three straight love sets, and Schrot losing but one game to Kaiidrack in their
three sets. McDowell had the only
battle in this fraine, winning from Mclntyre, G-4, 0-1, 9-7.

Attractive Exhibits Show
Summer Results
The closing weeks of the summer session brought out three exhibits of work
done during the summer that indicate
that unusual characters of the work done
here during the summer session. The
art department mounted in the lialls
of the training school and in several
of the classrooms an exhibit that for
quality and for number of exhibits had
any similar display bettered, here, or
so far as the knowledge of the faculty
niembers or of several people wdio visit
the Normal Schools of the state goes to
show nnj'wdiere else in the state. The
Campfire Girls displayed a smaller b u t
very attractive and informative collection of their work in the Campfire Headquarters on the third floor of the main
building. A number of insect cases,
luade by about fift.v of the students
who took courses in nature study, shown
in the front hall of the training school,
indicated the results of a part of the
work done in those courses. These
three exhibits, together with the iienmansliip exhibit described in the last
issue of this paper, are all the jiroof
that the students of this school neeiled,
if they needed any, that the one big
reason for coming to Lock Haven Normal is the value of the work that students receive here.
Incidentally, none of the displays was
siiecially prejiared for; each of tlieiii
was made up of selections from, ami
as many selections as possible from the
work of the students in their regular
classes. Each of them, with the exception of the campfire displa.v, was a
practical exercise useful in public school
work.
The Art Exhibit
The last two weeks witnessed such a
display of public school art as has n o t
]ireviousl.v been seen in all the years
of C. S. N. S. history. A greater variety
of ideas, carefully worked out designs,
original and useful applications of artistic principles, keenly judged for
jiedagogic value, lieljis to account for
the truly remarkable work exhibited in
the halls and classrooms of the training
school. "You are specializing in art
here, aren't you?" was the question confidently asked by one observer, a memlier of the State Department of Edueation, who happened to be a visitor here
during the exhibit. The question siieaks
for itself.
One of the unique sections in the exhibit was the one devoted to the rise
of primar.y, secondary, and conipliuientaiy colors, and the shades and tints
of colors. Cut-outs of clowns, balls, Indian clubs, baskets of fruit, horns, and
carts were a few of the many devices
used to employ these colors, and to imjiress them on children. Surely these
would be much more effective devices
than the usual lifeless color charts many
of us have made.
Worth-while uses of lettering occupied another section. No mere printing of
alphabets presented itself here. Various styles of lettering were put into immediate use "in catchy signs like the following: "We Are Americans—^Xlse Language, Not Slanguage"; "Serve Your
School by Keeping I t Clean"; "Wear
Out the Eight Side of the Road F i r s t " ;
"Make the Waste Basket Do Its Duty."

Of the large schoolroom posters exhibited in two of the rooms of the
Training School, the Good Health chart,
with its four children, having yarn hair,
and carrying tooth brushes and soaii,
was the one most couimented on. Below tlieui were spaces for the recording of weekl.v records of pupils who
did their daily health chores. Other
posters ill these rooms were designed
to jiromote the ju'iitection of birds, to
encourage the reading of books and the
memorization of jioenis, to stimulate
good scliool attendance, to remind pujiils to eat jirojier foods, to help the
recognition of connnon wild flowers, and
a dozen other school activities which
such jiosters might aid.
Black, white, and gre.y were effectively employed in many attractive wirtercolor scenes. By this group were some
fift.y exhibits, including
decorative
water-color landscape designs and naturalistic water-color bird designs, all
using water-colors interestingl.v.
The abundance of needlework exhibited called forth many olis and ahs.
Felt cusliiou tops, table runners, fancy
bags, liedrooni slijipers, and needlecases were a. few of the things made
and ilecoratively stitched b.v the art
students.
Other sections of the disjilay were
given to beautiful baskets in enameled
reeds, to gift boxes enameled in original designs, to jiajier cut-outs, tree-liand
and fornializeil, to jiajier-folding, etc.
Much praise is due the art instructors.
Miss McKisack and Miss Tressler, and
to students in their courses. Such
sjilendid initiative and co-ojieratioii
should not be permitted to go without
the jiraise it so richly deserves.
The Nature Study Exhibit
The nature study exhibit of mounted
insects in small cases, lalieled with
projier names, made b.v the jiujiils in
Mr. ITlmer's chisses. attracted much attention. It rejiresents only one phase
of the work done this summer, b u t it
does show Mr. Ulmer's practical apjilication of the idea that the place to
study nature is outdoors.
In all there were about sixty cases
of mounted specimens, moths, butterflies, and brilliantly colored beetles and
flies. Many will recall the start they
got at a sudden "There goes one," or
a "Get that one for me," followed by
a mad dash over campus occupants by
some swift but heavy-footed member of
the nature stud.v course. Some of the
moths mounted in some numbers were
the Cecropia, the Polyphemus, and the
Prometheus; these were in many of the
cases, while some of the collections contained rather rarer moths and butterflies.
The Campfire Girls Display
The Campfire Girls gave an unusual
exhibit of their activities in the Campfire Headquarters. Everyone who attended it was awakened to wdiat the
girls really do.
The room was lighted with lamps
shaded in autumn colors, giving to the
room something of the glow of the
campfire. In the windows were windowboxes, really beautiful ones, made by
Alma Freer and Marian Scott, of boards
with sections of bark covering tliem in
front. The boxes were filled with ferns.
Cream colored drapes hung from the

TIMES
upper case of the window; on the lower
part of each was appliqued a design
of crossed logs iu flame. A large rug
covered the floor, and the walls were
hung with exhibits of work.
Am.v Reese, Alma Freer, aud others
of the girls took turns acting as hostess,
serving all the guests at the exhibit on
Saturday afternoon with fruit punch
and wafers. (Jertrude Gratton made
blue jiriuts continuously, from sniall
ferns, etc., which the girls had brought
iu. Nellie Moore worked at the beading loom, beading her symbol on the
stole which the girls are going to present to Miss Selig. It will contain the
symbols of each of the girls in the regular course.
Three costumes were on displa,y, one
belonging to Mae Ginter, another to
Luc.v Ginter, and the third with all its
honor beads tind decorations to Miss
Selig, the guardian of the Neta-meinenilavviii group. The other ten girls,
who had not on disjilay their costumes,
had made miniature costumes as patterns. A number of exquisite headbands were shown, some beaded, some
of stenciled leather.
The individual scrap liooks are surely
worthy of mention. They contain jioetry,
descrijitious of hikes, drawings, and
autographs.
Miss Selig explained much of the
work to the students and faculty members who were unfamiliar with it, greeting them as the.v came in, and going
around with those who seemed interested.

Presidential Campaign
Possibilities
"It is ilillicult to predict the result of
the coining election," said Mr. Reams in
Ills chapel talk on Wednesday morning,
August P!. "People are no longer adhering dejiendably to party lines; they
are voting according to their judgments.
There are three strong parties in the
Held this year, an unusual situation. In
addition, all parties are finding it difficult to discover genuine issues on which
they differ widely; the personalities of
their respective candidates will therefore have to furnish campaign material.
"The Republicans, therefore, are likely to push the homely virtues of Calvin
Coolidge. The Democrats wdll lean
heavily on the admirable character of
John W. Davis. The Progressives will
advance the strenuous personality of
LaFollette, a type which wdll make appeal to many.
"A deadlock is not unlikely. LaFollette is likely to carry five states, whose
electoral vote will prevent either Davis
or Coolidge from having an electoral
plurality. The election is not at all unlikely to be thrown into the House of
Representatives, where the deadlock is
apparently even more likely to be repeated. In that case this generation
may get a brushing-up on certain forgotten sections of their Constitution."

a lot. Miss Y'ale gave us three good
jioints to remember: to remain neutral
ou all questions that touch on antagonism between different denominations; to impress the virtue of modesty;
and to teach, by cxanijile and precept,
respect to parents.

Campfire Girls Camp Out
The following Campfire Girls and
their guardian. Miss Hope Selig, spent
the week-end of August 9 and 10 a t
Camp Shoemaker, the Clinton County
Boy Scout camp: Amy Reese, Virginia
Mosier, Nellie Moore, Grace Harpster,
Ethel Peterson, Alma Free, May Ginter,
and lAicy Ginter. They left the Normal
School at 2 o'clock, reached the camp
about 2:30, and went immediately on
a hike over the hill, Dean Fredericks
aud Philip Rodgers blazing a way for
them to follow. After setting up camp,
Nellie Moore prepared a good supper,
earning for herself the title. Fried Potatoes. The council fire and the evening
program of stunts followed. Scout Commissioner Hoxworth appeared just in
time to rescue Grace Harpster, who had
fallen behind a log. As the cry went
up for "A story! A story!" he told
his favorite ghost story, "The Four
Raps." At 11 o'clock everyone turned
in for the night, or rather turned out,
for they slept under the stars, safely
guarded by Jack, the dog who has
adopted the Normal School.
Camp was broken about 3 o'clock Sunday, the girls reaching the Normal
School in time for supper, hot, tired,
dusty, and happy.

The Picture at Home
"When the crowd at home gather
around the Normal School picture and
comment on my friends, I may be
mighty glad that the friends can't hear
them. Each niember will ask the names
of a dozen different people, and think
it queer that I can't remember. Finally,
when everyone has looked and looked
as he pleases, perhaps I'll get a chance
to make a few remarks, a s : 'Ma, see
this girl; she sat beside me i n chapel.'
'Hasn't this girl got pretty hair; she
was in my health class.' 'This girl and
this one were the best writers in my
English class.' Many other comments,
including those about the faculty, will
come to my mind—but by this time I'll
be talking to myself."

Are We Lip-Lazy?

Miss Roberts on August 15, while
negating much of the constant halfthought newspaper and magazine criticism of the public schools, accepted t h e
criticism that the American people a r e
lip-lazy—careless of pronunciation, willingly indistinct—and accepted also t h e
responsibility of the schools for a large
part of the condition. Good speech, she
said, should be taught, should be insisted on, should be part of the teachers own habitual equipment. When we

Mildred Williams Dies
It deejily moves the editors of this
ptijier to have to record the death of
.a deservedly beloved fellow student.
Mildred Willianis, of Penfield, died in
the Clearfield Hospital on Saturday,
.luly 2B.
Miss AVilliams became ill at the Gallagher home on Susquehanna Avenue,
where she had been rooming this summer. Her illness, which did not seem
critical at first, did not yield to treatment, and became steadily worse. Mrs.
Williams was finall.v summoned, and remained here with Mildred until Thursdii.v morning, when her uncle. Dr. Homer
Lewis, of Clearfield, came here and took
her with him to the Clearfield Hospital.
Pneuinoniix developed, the flnal complication. Her death followed early Saturday morning. Funeral services were
held at her home in Penfield the following Monda.y afternoon.
Mildred Williams had one of the most
likable dispositions we have known. She
made friends effortlessly among the stuileiit body and tlie faculty, close friends,
to all of wdioiii the news of her deatli
came wifli a shock.

Southern Girl Was Pianist
111 the writeup of the Rotiiry Club
dinner Normal Times failed to answer
one question that has been frequently
put to its editors since: Who was the
girl who came up with the Rotarians,
and who could get such wonderful .iazz
out of the old piano that no one could
sit still? We answer the question herewith, we did not know heretofore. She
was Miss Lucille Smith, her home is in
Durham, N. C, she was visiting Mr. and
Mrs. G. G. Green, of Lock Haven, and
she certainly could make a piano stand
up and shako itself. She was naturally
and highl.y popular with the .younger
set of Loek Haven, but nevertheless, we
wish that she eould have made it jiossible for us to see more of her and
hear more of that plaintive harmonization.

New Plan of Certifying Teachers
Mr. Drum announced in chapel early
in the term some important legislative
measures which the Normal School princijials are hoping to see pass the state
legislature, all aimed at giving to the
children in rural sections of the state
soiuetliiiig more like an equal opportunity to gain an education with the
cliildrcn living in towns and cities.
Sliould tliese measures be enacted, a
squtire deal for the country cliild ma.v
lie a reality instead of an educator's
pijie dreiim.
Hrielly, the important clianges which
the Noriiiiil Scliool principals will endeavor to bring about are these; State
eucoutagement of better equipment of
rural schools; a iniuiniuni salary for
rural scliool teachers of .lil,200 and a
maxiniuni of $2,000, wdth yearly increases of .$100; iind the assumption by
the state of ;ill the cost of tliese increased expenditures over and above
what the rural districts are alread.y inlying.
Eiicli student at this school this summer should know wdiat is intended;
should see that the better salaries are
offered to draw the better prepared, the
more experienced teachers into the country schools, .just as better salaries are
now drawing them. away. Don't lose
sight of that purpo.se. A sehool with
a good teacher is a good school, and no
other sehool is good; back up the movement which will get good teachers into
the country.

Superintendents to Meet Here
The annual Round Table Conference
of Superintendents and Principals of
Central Pennsylvania will be held at
Loek Haven Normal on Friday and Saturdiiy, September 26 aud 27. An exceptionally interesting ]irograiii has been
arriinged, copies of wdiich will be sent
to itll schoolmen about Sejitember 12.
All efl'ort will be made to extend this
conference into a three-day session for
next year. All schoolmen attending will
be the guests of the Normal School
throughout their sta.v. The president
of this .year's conference is George D.
Robb, principal of the Altoona High
School, and C. M. Sullivan, head of our
social studies de]iartiiient, is secretary.

Carry On
The old war-time slogan, "Carry on,"
lost niucli of its flavor and power to
stimulate because it was worked to
death. Exhuming it from tho dust of
the discard, one might tliink it had
been originally designed as a parting
shot at the summer sessionites.
Splendid work has been done this session, and t h a t is as it should be. One
thing remains, if that one thing is not
accomplished, then, successful as has

been the work here a t Nornial, nothing
has been accomplished; the time has
been wasted. The thing now to do is to

200 Students Go to Danville
About two hundred students from the
summer session, tliose who have been
taking Dr. Pike's lecture course this
summer, went in five bus loads for an
eiglit.v-mile ride across state to visit
the State Hospital for the Insane at
Danville, Pa. Nurses and doctors took
parties of students about the buildings,
and everything was explained: the types
of cases, the nature of certain patients'
troubles, the big change in treatment
from the old da,vs of the straight-jacket
to the present trcatnieiit of mental diseases as diseases, with the many resulting cures, etc. Some of the work
done by the iiatients was shown, and .a
number of souvenirs were iiurchased.
The trip was highly interesting to all
who made it.
Quite a bit of excitement was caused
when it was announced in the dormitories early in the morning that the
busses had arrived. Some received the
news with cheers and delight; others
hung about their roommates' necks and
wejit great crocodile tears. Somehow
or other, it was felt that some would
never come back.
Songs, cheers, .veils, stops for refreshuiciit in towns iilong the route (Ask
Folliuei- illlll A'oiiiuhi iiliout the pineapple sundae in Milton), and regular
picnic spirit iiiiirked the trip. AVhen
it came time to return. Miss Yale and
Miss Cresswell had to go all over the
Danville buildings hauling out those
who had found the atmosphere too congeiiiiil. A careful check-up before tho
busses started indicated that all our
cases of abnormal psychosis had escaped
and were returning.

Developing Picture Study in
Our Schools
The value of picture stud.y as part of
the work in English in the elementar.y
grades was set forth b.y Miss Daugherty
in her chapel talk on August 11. Oral
discussion can bo developed by pictures,
compositions written after discussion
enibod.ying ideas suggested by the pictures, and even poetry may be composed.
She read some rather remarkable ef-

forts composed by pupils iu the Lakewood (Ohio) grades as a result of certain picture study lessons. Incidentally,
il liking for good pictures may be instilled, a desiralile b.y-produet of aii.v

iiiothballs and gave to us again, though
without the local hits which featured it
three years ago.
The male quartette was a re;il feature:
Albert Hobba, bass; Guy A'onadii, baritone; Paul A'onada, second tenor, and
M\di's Mreoii, tenor. Tlie.v sang a number of selections, humorous and otherwise, which were vigorousl.v encored.
.\u iittractive feature was Miss Angel's
eccentric dancing. Dressed as an aged
negro, she allowed her rheumatics to bo
carried away by the music, swinging
gradually into agile and graceful dance
steps tind postures.
The opening chorus worked iu "Tennessee," "Twilight and You,'
'Tucky
Honie," iind other recent nunibers. Seventeen black-face comedians made up
the chorus, nine girls, eight boys. Mr.
Reams occupied the central seat, as interlocutor. The chorus members were
Miss Angel, Charlotte Lowe, Louise Ireland, Louise Beers, Evelyn Cyler, Verna
Reams, Anna Moberg, Grace Startzel,
Edith Hopkins, Bernard Madison, Byron
AIcDowell, Jack Follmer, Myles Breon,
Paul A'onada, Guy A^onada, and Albert
Hobba.
The closing chorus included, "Let the
Rest of the World Go By," "One to
Two," "Linger Awhile," and "Till We
Meet Again.'' The curtains went down
oil au animated scene of dancing, e.acli
member of the chorus going it iis he
pleiised.
Miss Tressler came within an ace of
lireaking up the chapel exercises. We
had ,just finished singing "Holy, Holy,''
when she iiuiiounced that her scripture
selection would be "Oh, Sing Unto the
Lord a New Song."
Jbiry Stark and Peg Kilpatrick rose
ever so early the other niorning and
hiked down to the post office before
breakfast to make sure that their letters went out. The letters undoubtedly
were intended for father and mother.
Beatrice Thompson intends to give up
handshaking; she cannot afford the
habit. She shook the hands off her alarm
clock the other night, and had to break
the crystal to put the hands i n place.
.Janet Orr has been ordered to put on
her spectacles before she puts on her
stockings the next time she is getting
ready to go hiking.

NORMAL

Demonstration School Proves
Wonh in Summer Program
Possibly the biggest claim that Lock
Haven Normal can make to superiority
to other Normal Schools of this state
ill its method of preparing teachers
til teach in summer sessions is its school
of demonstration. All of the Normal
Schools now give excellent prepiiration
in classroom methods; all of theiii to
an extent amazing to one acquiiinted
with Normal School procedure even five
years ago focus their teaching on the
actual needs of the teacher when she
gets inside ii cliissrooni; all of them
attempt to do what we think we do better here at C. S. N. S. than anywhere
else: provide absolutely the best qualified instructors for preparation for
classroom success, qualified both by
triiining and by practical classroom experience. But, so far as we know, only
in I^ock Haven Normal is there a full
sized School of Demonstration, iu which
excellent teachers teach daily excellent lessons, to be observed and copied
by summer session students, and in
whieh all students taking methods
courses iire required to observe caretull.y, so thiit their triiiuing iu good
theory may be reinforced b.v watching
good theory iu practice. School superintendents have not been slow to apjireciate the value of this practical preptiration, as letters to the oflice have shown.
One hundred and thirty-three lioys
and girls enrolled in the school this
sumniei'. Many of them were those who
for one reason or another had failed
to pass their work in the training schools
or the Lock Haven city schools this
past year. Genuine teaching was necessary to develop them; the demonstration teachers, having no ideal school,
had to face and meet the same hard
problems that the observers had to face
and meet. Most of them went out at
the end of the session iible to keep up
with their grade in school, an evidence
of successful teaching by the demonstration teachers; or, in some cases, to
advance a sehool grade; in either case
a saving in pupil-value to the children
and to their school system.
The heaviest enrollment was in the
kindergarten, 26 children getting their
first tastes of school life with Miss
Dunn. There were ten first graders, 23
second graders, 25 third graders, 18
fourth graders, 15 fifth graders, and 16
sixtli graders.
W i t h no compulsory attendance laws
at work whatever, nothing to keep the
children in school save their own interest in what they were getting, the
.attendance record for the sunimer was
87%. In the fourth grade the record
reached the r a t h e r amazing figure of
96%, t h e third grade being a close second, with 93%, and the kindergarten
and first grade, as might be expected,
holding down t h e average somewhat
with 87% and 7 8 % , respectively. The
average for the six regular grades for
the six weeks was almost exactly 90%.
.School people a r e able to measure by
such a record, m a d e by a school with a
disproportionate number of those to
whom school work has been unappealing.

.iust iibout how efl'ective the teaching
done this sutiiiiier must have lieen.
To iiidiciite the wide variet.v of work
open to oliservation, the following tiilile
is of decided interest. LittU' that might
periilex a teacher iu her own school
work escaped iittention this summer.

The kinds of lessons and the nuinber
of lessons in each sub.iect was determined b.v the culls for demonstrations
that came from the instructors in the
methods sub.iects this summer. Twentysix observers could get iidmittancc to
each denionstriition. The observers'seats
were not alwa.vs full, but there were
few scheduled demonstrations in which
they were not iieiirly full, and occasional l.v b.v special dispensation certain
oliservatioiis were overcrowded. Allowing a moderate average of twenty observers to a class, and 4.50 observed lessons (the exact number w-as 444, several of them not being included iu
T.able 1 because of difliculty in classification) there were 9,000 individual observations made this summer by stuilents, ail average of fifteen observations for each student. As a by-product
of the summer work here, t h a t does not
argue badly for improvement in work
this winter by summer students.
Fifty-nine development lessons were
taught, 45 drill lessons, 33 lessons using
giimes, 26 appreciation lessons, 17 silent
reading lessons, and smaller numbers
for a wide variety of types; dramatization, written lessons, story telling,
problems, library hours, oral composition, group discussion, oral reading, supervised study, comprehension of reading, listening, beginning reading, free
play, picture study, speed tests in reading, formal gymnastics, playing store,
projects, rejiroduction, informal- gymnastics, tone matching, written composition, free damatization, group study,
sense gaines, standard tests, etc. These
types are listed only to give some attempt to indicate the wide variety of
procedure; the lessons were not taught
as types, the topic to be presented being the point of emphasis.
The complete list of activities offered
to the children during the summer comprehends devotional exercises, free play,
story telling, arithmetic, writing, health
education, supervised study, civics,
group discussions, playground work,
games, language, spelling, nature study,
reading, English, music, rhythms, library
hour, handwork, hygiene, phonics, history, and geography.

TIMES
MisH Dunn taught 86 lessons for observation. Hiss Hobbs 82, Miss Ijesher
SI, Miss Hanson 74, Miss Stafford 60,
Mr. VanArsdale 18, Miss Denniston 16,
Miss Angel 11, Miss Gordon 10, Miss
Mathews 4, and special instructors 4.
Thesis observations served another
purpose thiin the practical preparation
of teachers, or it might be more accurate to .say another phase of the practical jirepiiratioii of teachers than the
direct presentation of ideas; they
served as a ver.v valuiiblc ineans of
keeping the activities of the methods
classroom in constant contact with the
teaching done in the training school.
It is something more than a theory of
teacher-triiiniiig at C. S. N. S. that
triiining in basic educational theory
should go hand in hand with practical
applications of that triiining; it is something more than an unrealized, vaguely
hoped-for ideal that that should be done;
it is au ideiil t h a t is realized by practical measures such as this this summer. In a dozen ways the work ot the
demonstration school is hitched up to
and kept up with the work done in the
Normal School classrooms, the result being good for the Normal School and
good for the training school, and close
to ideal for the student-teacher receiving her training here.

Summer Session Picture Taken
The annual summer session picture
was taken on the east campus on Monday morning, August 11. The bleachers
had been put in place on Saturda,y, so
everyone had an idea of what was coming; Mr. Drum's aunouneement in chapel
.just cleared up the time.
At the close of chapel the student
body rushed out on the east camiius to
get into good positions for the picture.
Few of the girls eould resist the temptation of powdering their noses and arranging their hair so as to look their
best, which made it possible for Ericson
to get onto the bleachers first, with first
choice of position. Neefe arrived later,
but secured his publicit.v by getting into
the picture twice.
Belvie arrived in time to be snapped,
invited b.y about half the total enrollment. He placed himself in the center of the circle made by the long
bleachers, and well out in front, only to
be sent back by Mr. Breon as near as
possible to the center seats occupied
b.y the other members of the faculty.
He took a particularly good picture.
His contented look was unmistakable.
Wonder whether being squeezed into
Jilace b.y such a fair one had anything
to do with it? Belvie never could resist "em.
Two pictures were taken, and prints
from the better one were on sale in
the main oflfice on Wednesday morning,
and for the rest of the week.

of winning the set, but each time Schrot
would bring the score back to deuce.
All afternoon t h e set went on, and
not until the dinner bell rang did Schrot
tire out his opponent sufSciently to win,
13 games to 11. Twenty-four games in
a single set is about all the tennis that
most of us would care to play in an
afternoon. The match was resumed the
following afternoon, and Schrot took the
set and the match 6-4. Not since the
challenge cup was first offered, in 1921,
has it been won other than by a Clearfield County boy. Three of the four
semi-finalists, both of the finalists were
from Clearfleld County this year, and
the wind-up of the competition last year
was the same.
Helen Myrick had her second championship in hand easily, except when
Grace English forced her, in the second
round, to extend herself somewhat to
win, 6-2, 4-6, 6-2. I n the following
frame she had things easier, winning
from Louise Beers, 6-2, 6-4; and the
match p u t her into such form that the
final match with Mary Johnston she
took with ease, 6-2, 6-2, little supertennis being necessary. Mary Johnston
had worked her way up to the frame by
winning easily from Grace Peters in the
second round, 6-2, 6-2; and by downing
Dorothy Yeager in a three-set match in
the next round, 6-2, 4-6, 6-0.
The other second round matches had
seen Dorothy Yeager pushed to win from
Christina Doebler, 6-3, 6-4; and Louise
Beers winning the first set easily from
Mercedes Beter, 6-1, losing the next by
the same one-sided score, but coming

Good Literature—and
Interesting
MISS Fuller took occasion in her ehapel
talk to rap those people wdio yield to
an urge now and then to read something because it is literature and therefore supposed to be good for them.
Somehow they have the idea that literature is like medicine: t h e worse it
tastes, the better it must be for you.
Miss Fuller denied that good literature
need not be dry as dust; she asserted
that if one but chooses wisely and in
accordance with the sort of things in
which he is naturally interested, he
can find good books, many of them,
good literature, and as interesting as
he could hope to find. That is the sort
of literature which one should choose
if he hopes to improve himself. She
implied that one improved his literary
taste by enjoying the best sort of things
lie liked to read.
To illustrate that there is rich reward
in literaure, she read to us Stephen
Leaeock's humorous essays, "Adventures
With a Black Bass," and "Chairmen I
Have Met." Both Mr. Reams and Miss
Daugherty were moved to tears when
reminded how one can pull up a perfect black bass one has hooked, to find
that a yellow perch has substituted himself on the line.

Last Dance Is Best
The last dance of the sumnier session, wdiich was held on Saturday, Aug.
16, proved a real success. Mr. Drum
announced at the luncheon hour on Saturday that the dancing would last an
hour longer than usual, and that the
orchestra would be flve pieces instead
of the usual three pieces. Everything
was just as he said, the music was fine,
and there was a big crowd there to enjoy it. Judging from the remarks in
the hall afterward, everyone had a rattling good time.
Mr. and Mrs. M. J . Woodring spent

ried the necessary punch, or heave, or
chuck, or whatever it is in dodgeball.
In the preliminary round Lycoming
County went up against Cambria and
Clinton against Blair, the rest of the
teams drawing byes. On Monday evening, August 4, the opening contest resulted in an easy win for Cambria over
Lycoming, the fln.al score being 7-2.
Both teams played hard, but Cambria
had the idea of hanging on to t h e ball
better, and lost less time in pursuing
it about the field. Lycoming, too, had
the services of b u t one male student,
and that handicap was a little too much.
L. Kyler, Esther and Euth Ayres, Anna
and Mabel Moburg, Ruth Kline, A. Johnson, and C. Lowe held up Lycoming's
reputation, wdiile B. Madison, C. McNulty, J. Choby. M. Topper, A. Topper,
A. Mackey, M. Muldoon, E. Burke, D.
Yeager, and E. Rhoads played for Cambria. Iinmediately after Blair bowed
to Clinton, snappy playing b y both
teams making the game more interesting than the final score indicates. Blair
was right there wdth the push, but a
trifle weak with the dodge; while Clinton, for the first time in many contests,
tasted the fruits of victory, and proceeded to mop up the rest of the contests—all but Center. The flnal score
was 8-2. Eor Blair, Lenore Hess, Hettie Holman, Marian Scott, E d n a Ruth,
Esther Garber, Mabel Stiffler, Byron
McDowell, Pearl Spangler, Mabel Kelly,
and Beatrice Kelly hurled the ball
around; w hile for victorious Clinton,
Foster Augustine, Christina Doebler,
Ray Hirlinger, Pearl Mason, Dean Hoy,
Margaret Piper, A'aughn Eussell, Loretta
O'Connor, Lulu Batsdorf, and Grace
English dodged all that came their way.
The following night Cambria fought
its way into the semi-finals. McKean
was t h e victim in a one-sided match,
at the end of the respective periods
three of McKean's were left. The final
score was 9-2. Elk County defaulted to
Center, and the Mixed Counties likewise
failed to put a full team on the field
against Potter. Clinton caught a tarter
in Clearfield, however, the best match
of the tournament resulting. At the end
of the first regular periods of six minutes each, both teams had put out six
of the opposition. A tie score, 6-6.
Clinton had been rather expecting defeat, had more or less conceded it,
Clearfleld in every year previous having reached the final round. The unexpected tie was shouted all over the
picnic ground—those two contests were
part of the attraction a t the Woolrich
picnic—and a huge crowd collected to
see the playoff. I n the second three-

there was no gentle
the ball hit the bump
could be heard. Clearfield put on a
little too much elbow grease, however;
several times the ball got away, with
the result that eight of Clinton's players were still hopping about at tho end
of the time, while in Clinton's half the
ball was so well handled t h a t only five
Clearfield Countians were in the ring
at the last wdiistle. Clinton carried off
the contest, 11-8, and loud and long were
tho cheers.

Cambria gave Center soiuetliiug to
think about in their semi-final match.
The Cambrians (or is it the Cymbri)
were very much in the battle. First in
the center of the ring, the end of six
minutes' playing found three of them
still active and ready to go on indefinitely. A lively bit of dodging was
necessary to save the day for Center,
but it was developed, eight of the team
being in the ring when the match was
over. Cambria contributed to its own
defeat by allowing the ball to get away
too frequently. Cambria presented the
same lineup as against Lycoming. For
Center, Russell Bohn, Elwood Sones,
Reeder Patton, Charles Hackenberg,
Paul Durner, Tona Hosterman, Louise
Cunningham, Tacy Smith, Nona Wagner,
and Anna Winkleblech were the victors.
Meanwhile, in the other semi-final
match, Clinton walloped Potter to a
standstill, doing them in to the tune of
6-0. Clinton had its full team of ten
on the field, while Potter was forced
to play wdth but eight players, but were
good enough sports to go througii with
it. Neefe directed the match, but was
able to perform better outside the ring
than in the center; it Avas too difiicult
to miss him there.
The final round brought together the
two undefeated teams, Clinton and Center. Clinton ran into the center with
a rousing shout that showed plenty of
pep. For some minutes the ball flew
wildly about, twdce escaping; then Bohn
began the mowing down. I n the next
half minute three players went out; but
the remaining seven took new lease of
vigor, and dodged and skipped and slid
so well that two minutes went by without another loss. Then one by one
three others went out, but four—not so
bad a number, after that hectic period—
remaining in the center a t the final
whistle. Center fared little better in
the center of the ring. So evenly
matched were the teams that a t the final
whistle Center had b u t five left, one
more than Clinton, and enough to carry
off the game. The second game 'was
even hotter than the first. The strain
on the players told, aud the process of
elimination went ou more rapidly.
Again Center won, carrying off the

TIMES
match in straight gaines, and again the
score was exceedingly close, three Centerians waving goodby to the referee at
the last wdiistle to one of Clinton's.
Clinton lost, b u t the lo.sing was well
done; close, hard-fought, in good spirit.
And Center won just as well, with hearty
cheers for the vanquished as well as for
tlieniselves.
So ends the 192-1 tournament. Hail
to the victors. Year after year they
have such winning ways. Maybe someone can stop them in 1925; but tho team
that does will have a battle to do it,
for Center County sticks together and
('enter Count.v fights. That they will
have to fight is certain, for two years
iu a row is too long for them to hang
on to that cup; it strikes the rest of the
counties as rubbing it in. Beat Center
in ]92o—if you can! There isn't one
person from Center County who thinks
it can be done—which is just the spirit
that will make it mighty hard to do.

The Value of Art as a Subject
Miss Tressler gave an interesting discussion of the value of a r t as a .school
subject for every child. She stated that
through this subject, properly taught,
people were alile more fully to appreciate the beauty in color, form, and arrangement of things whose appeal inight
be overlooked.
Children, therefore,
should never be allowed to see ugly
things, so that the impressions made on
their iiiinds might be such that they
will react to true beauty. She called
to mind some of the practical results
of art. If it had not been for the art
of architecture, we would still be barely
up to the log cabin idea. Sculptural
art has given us fine monuments, structural art the furniture aud modern
equipment of a home, inventive art the
labor-saving machines an are making life pleasanter, and costume
design has brought our clothing up and
up from the time of Adam and Eve to
the present day. Forty thousand teachers trained to teach art and beauty are
needed in our schools today, she claimed.

Training School Closes

Go to

The training school came to its close
August 8, after a highly satisfactory
summer session.
Miss Lesher and Miss Hanson combined their two grades on the last day,
and went with them up the girls' glen
for a picnic party. Miss Stafford and
the fifth and sixth grades went up on
the hill back of the Normal School, and
held their picnic about the old reservoir. Nothing that adds to the picnic
flavor was absent from either: eats,
games, and the picnic spirit were all
0. K.
The flrst and second grades had a
farewell party with Miss Hobbs in their
classroom. Their chair-desks were arranged as long tables, and they frolicked
about just as much as they pleased, even
if it was their schoolroom.

The Griffith Store

The kindergarten kiddies felt that
they outclassed them all. The children,
with Miss Dunn's help, built their own
banquet table of two sizes of kindergarten blocks and boards. The table
reached almost across the kindergarten
room. They arranged on it white crepe
paper covers, party napkins, dishes, and
bouquets, and then put on a delightful
lunch, from sandwiches to ice cream.
