Keiniild Weri-eiiratli gave an unforgettable concert to Lock Haven music
lovers on Friday, Februar.v 22. After
having heard miiuy of liis Victor records we were prejiared for ii concert
of unusual merit, but not to be taken
into the heart of every selection.
i l r . AVeirenrath's voice is a rich baritone, and this, together with his wonderful ]iersoiiality, gave color to all his
selections. His mind seemed centered
on making his audience feel as he felt,
and if that was the case he succeeded
beyond his greatest hope. The beauty
of his voice iind the perfection of his
technique combined with his capacity
for throwing himself physicallj', dramatically, easilj', into the moods of his
songs to carry his audience where he
wished them.
He gave an encore after each group
of songs. The most jdeaising of these
seemed to be Brink to Jle Only With
Thine Eyes (how he did make that old
favorite bloom into new life) and Kashmiri Love Song. One of his encores,
Iirumidune, is a ballad so newly introduced here that he had some doubts
that any of his audience had had earlier
acquaintance with it. His Danny Deever, given as his last encore, seemed to
many to be the best choice of the evening; a Werrenrath concert without
Danny Deever would somehow be an
anomaly, anyhow. That is the penalty
for having done anything so perfectly;
it must be done over and over ever
after.
He might have sung just that
for every encore, so well was it received and so well did it come up lo
expectations.
On his regular program there was no
uniiiiimity of opinion. An attempt to

(irciit was the excitement iiml nnxiety

one was trj-ing to make herself the iiio>i
attractive. There was so much riiiiiiiuj;
from one room to the other that shoes
were in danger of being worn out.
The gym was decorated with the Senior
colors, maroon and buff. Penants representing various schools were tacked upon the walls. The lights were covere.l
with colored papers, making the whole
room a soft ruddy color. This ailded so
much to the "thrills" so much talked ot.
The students and their guests were
greeted by a receiving line of the following people: Mr. Drum, Miss Yale.
Mr. High, Miss Larkin, Mr. Glossner, and
Miss VanZandt.
The Lyric Orchestra
furnished the music to which the happy
couples danced. Punch was served, aud
gas balloons were sold throughout the
evening.
There's no need to say that every one
enjoyed herself or himself. Of course
every one was discussed from "a" to "z"
for a week to come.

Psychology
When a girl gets a man for the dauce
who she doesn't know, there are srveral
ways of determining whether he en.iuye..!
himself iind (you) her or not. The lirst
thing to look for is .a line. If he hand;her a line, he thinks she's a good sport;
if not, he thinks it's a prettj- good dance,
but is glad there are other people on
his program. One good lino that is almost overworked is to tell the girl that
he doesn't have half enough dances with
her. (Of course it all ili'|ieii.ls upon who
the girl is whether sho believes it or uot.
P . S.—She has a better time herself if
she can swallow a line.)
.-inother good way of telling is to see
if he will flirt with her while he is dancing with some one else. If he does,
the girl should iininediatel,y become absorbed in the man sho is dancing with.
Then if he insists on cutting a dance
with some one toward the end of the
evening, she knows he likes her dancing
and it is safe to go upstairs with liim
when he goes after the coats.
A wise man alwa.vs takes in the lay
of the land before starting a campaign.

This is the season of the j'ear when
nature after a long sleep awakens and
bursts forth with all the joy that comes
only after such a long rest. Tliere is no
season in which we can use our senses
to more advantage. Who would miss
the welcome "tru-a-ly" of the bluebird,
the sight of the first hepatica, or the condensed essence of spring as found in the
odor of the arbutus'.'
Nature lovers may lind the following
suggi'stions helpful:
1—Keep a bird ciileinlar; that is, mark
the date of each new bird .vou see.
2—Prepare bird houses for bluebirds
aii.l wrens.
.3—Keep a record of the date and place
where you find the spring tlowers.
4—Listen for the spring peepers. Find
one—if .you can.
5—Find some frogs' eggs; place them

March Book Review

An Event in Washington's Life
Mi.'js Alber's Knglish 231 class in Play
Production gave a pla.v in Chapel, Tuesday morning, February 26.
The members of this class are preiiaring to teach in seventh, eighth and
ninth grades, so all the pla.vs that are
produced by them are of the type that
can be used in those grades.
An event in the life of Washington
was portrayed by the following members of the class: Elverda Richardson,
who took the part of Red Rowan, an
Indian girl; Albert Hauke, George
Washington; Carl Smoke, Glenn Paul
Vonada, Talbot; and Byron Blackford,
who was Richard Glenn.
The scene was in the mountain where
Wiishington and his party of surveyors
are camping.
Wiishington is alone,
stud.ving his wood's map, when Red
Rowan suddenly surprises him. She sits
beside liim and offers to read his palm.
He consents, but tells her ho will not
believe any foolishness.
Red Rowan
foretells a great future for him; that
before long he will be fighting for a
great cause, will have many hard times,
but in the end will triumph.
The curtain closed on Washington,
again alone, pondering over the strange
things he has just been told.

"Around the Hub"
"Around the H u b " was the subject of a
very interesting talk given in chiipel,
Wednesday morning, February 27, by
Mr. T'liner. He described his visit to
man.v places of historical interest which
he had the pleasure of seeing while
attending sunimer school at Harvard.
The old South Church, Faneuil Hall,
and the old North Church were three
places of great interest in Boston. On
Ins trip to Concord, he viewed Lexington Common, the Minute Man, and the
old Hancock House.
At Concord, he
visited Hawthorne's home, the Sehool of
Philosoph,v, and that famous structure,
the North Bridge. All of these trijis
were excursions in which the students
of Harvard were privileged to make.
Mr. Ulmer actually played truant an'd
niiide a very interi'sting excursion by
himself. There was a meeting of the
Emerson Centennial in Concord which he
wished to attend. At this meeting he

Ward Howe, then a woman of eighty,

Walden Pond, and after some difliculty

was marked only by a simple pile of
stones, built up by visitors. He contributed to this monument.

TIMES
Faults of Graduates

PERSONALS
Mr. Drum and Mr. McDougall have
returned from the convention of the National Educational Association held at
Chicago during the last week in February.
Miss Erna Grassmuck, from the
state departnient, so recently a visitor
here, was one of tliose whom they met
out there.
Dorothy Savage and Ann Peters wish
it mentioned that they also were at State
on Februiir.y 23.
Ivan Mechtly, '23, and Lee Smeltzer,
ex-'24, were back on the twenty-third,
Ivan visiting Carl Hayes, and Lee bunking in with Jack Follmer.
Few of us are able to boast that our
friends come over two hundred miles
to see us. That is just what Helen
Rock did; came all the way from Ellwood City to see Alice Weisen.
Helen Gregory, Alva Schooley, Isabelle Watson, and Peg Bracken say that
this issue of the Times won't be worth
reading if their trip to State College is
omitted.

i l r . Ih'iiin continued his report on the
I'iiults of graduates as stated by their
siiperinteudeiits, in chapel, Monday
niorning, February 18.
The lirst criticism was inability to
liiinille unusual cases of discipline.
Since all children do not have the same
interests or background, the duty of
the teacher is to study the child and
(ind what appeals to him. If she can
keeji the cliild interested, she will have
little trouble with discipline. She must
also tiike her stand, and have the backlioiie to stick to it; she must make the
children understand that she is the person in charge. The teacher should uot
lie forced to handle cases where the child
is greatly retarded or mentally incapiible of the work. "For these," Mr.
Drum said, "there should be au opporliiiiity or ungraded class. In either of
these the individuals are given just the
work they can do and are interested in.
.-Vt least one-half of the work is manual
work, iiii.l prepiires the child for the
eiily kind of work he is capable of doing."

NORMAL TIMES

Don't Forget Your Pledges
Selfishness is the cause of most of
onr international, domestic, and personal
troubles.
Selfishness and greed play
largo p a r t s in causing all wars and all
serious internal problems.
We Americans are accused of selfishness, in that we are accepting the best
things of life as though they were our
due, and then expecting more. This apjiiirent selfisliness is only indifference.
We do take too much for granted; we
do fail to express onr gratitude; but
that is only because nothing stirs us
into thinking of how much is ours, conijiiired to what others receive, and of the
thanks we ought, therefore, to be rendering in some tangible form.
We did contribute to the Armenian
Fund largely; ue were stirred.
This
Wiis in 1922; since then we have forgotten about the fund and the people. The
Student Friendship Fund comes ;is a new
cause. Miss Quale, its representative,
sncceeded in awakening us to our responsibility. Her talks were well attended,
and stirted the entire school as it has
not been stirred in a long time. Now
that the campaign is on here, don't forget: You are an American student, living in a land of plenty; be glad of this
opportunity to show that you appreciate
what is yours.

Rules for English Teachers

I

In addition to the rules officially liiid
down for the teaching of English Composition, it might be well to add the following for the sake of the pupils concerned :
1. Do, not make the children sit up
straight. It will tire them.
2. Allow the pupils to lean against
something when standing up to recite.
It looks nicer.
3. The introduction to the lesson
should be lengthy; then there won't be
so much time left for work.
4. Permit the children to choose
what and how much they want to do—
then you may be sure it will be done.
5. Do not let the pupils use too much
originality; they might surpass the
teacher.
It seems unusual that the Juniors
could stand still two seconds to get
their picture taken.

Day Room Activity

Sad, but True

Exhibit of Art Work

"Hush girls! Here comes Miss Raffle and her pennianship class."
(Flutter and scurry followed b.v the
frightened day roomers. At last some
one has been found who can keep them
quiet).
But the day roomers knew that class
was to meet there, so they had the room
artistically decorated. On one side were
pictures of bread, nuts, cakes, fruit, etc.
Above them was printed "Grace is on a
diet." On the other side were these
signs above tone's desk: "Silence, Go
Easy, Penmanship, Penmanship," "Office," "Bring Your Washing here."

During this school year Miss Yale has
received some especiall.v fine art work
from her students. As a result there
lias been an a r t exhibit in the training
school.
The display was unique, for
it did not consist of great paintings,
but of work that can be done in the
ordinary school room. There were fine
examples of paper-cutting of figures and
landscapes. Simple forms done in clay,
such as any child could be taught to
make, were also on display. The ink
brush work gave some fine ideas for
beginning this style of a r t in the classroom. Crayon drawings of .simple forms
and delightful color combinations were
also exhibited. Another interesting feaUire was that of paper-folding and cutting. The .iunior girls used this in their
house-furnishing ]iro,iects.
Each girl
built a room of cyrdlioard, papered it,
and furnished it.
These not only
taught skill in folding and handling
materials but also taste in interior decoration. This part of the exhibit consisted of 14 bedrooms (Miss Yale is
thinking of starting a hotel), three
breakfast rooms, several nurseries, a
library, a kitchen, and a porch.

The most impressive and important of
all were copies of penmanship done by
the day room girls whicli were posted
on the wall with corrections written in
red crayon. The corrections, such as—
"to loose, use finger movement," "feet
up, hands folded, wrists curled," "two
dark, use the lights," " b e careful of
your slant, roll more," were made by
those student who are considered authorities on penmanship.

The girls work hard to get the room
in order for the penmanship classes. It
is an incentive for better work. An

Day Roomers Again
Confusion here, excitement there, and
commotion everywhere. This was the
condition of the day room the first da.y
of the second semester. When such expressive words describe the atmosphere
of the day room, something surely is in
the ,iir, because as a rule the day roomers are always quiet, demure, hard studying, shy little creatures—when they are
asleep.
This is what happened. Sh! A new
boy student appeared. Isn't that worth
some fuss?
Here is the story of his initiation into
ihe dii.v room society.
"Wish I had a little shovel
Maybe then I could uncover
Why I never had a lover," sang
Helen Bettens on that day. Now the
other day roomers wanted to study, so
galoshes, pencils, ink bottles, books, etc.,
promptly were sent to pay her a call.
One of Ihese bottles decided to see who
was on the boys side of the fence, and
so over the partition it went. It must
have found a goal, for suddenly a tall
man, towering about six feet four inches,
and not the smiling little Donald,
stepped to the partition aud said, "Would
you girls kindly knock before you send
in yonr visitors?"
Well, that's the story, and, as was said
before, confusion here, excitement there,
and commotion everywhere then was
seen, heard and felt.

It has been proved b.y a psychological
test at Harvard and Radclifle Colleges
that girls rank above boys in mentality.
This is explained by the fact that greater discrimination is exercised in sending
girls to college than is shown in sending men. Before a girl is sent to college she must demonstrate her ability
to enter, and that she has a definite aioi
in view.
On the other hand, many
men go to college because "it is the
thing."
Wabash College men are overwhelmingly in favor of the Bok Peace Plan.

JUNIOR CLASS PICTURE TAKEN
On Thursday morning, February twen
ty-eighth, the .Juniors were assembled
in front of the Normal for the purpose
of having their picture taken.
The
Juniors are very backward about coming forward; far worse than the mule
when it comes to picture taking. The
entire class wished to stand on the last
step.
As tliis was almost impossible,

The camera-man
called, "Down iu front!" No one budged.
The plea or command whichever you
choose to call it, seemed to have no

Miss Grassmuck Visits Normal

123 E. Alien st.

Pupils must be taught as citizens of
toda.v, and be trained in the duties of a
good citizen.
I n order to put over
this big piece of work, the teacher must
meet certain requirements. One of her
first plans should be the use of material
essential to good teaching. By this is
meant the extensive use of pictures,
specimens, maps, pamphlets, etc. Tho
teacher should strive to be a leader in
the community, and in order to accomplish this she must be "tip-top." That
is to say she must be physically, mentally, and spiritually fit for lier position.
Since teaching has become a firofession, present teachers must continue to
study, and through extension courses
and lectures keep up a cultural background.
Miss Grassmuck emphasized
the point that a teacher with special
abilities should contribute these abilities in the class room, a n d these will
aid in tlie study of the subject.
At the close of the talk, Miss Grassmuck sang two of America's popular Indian .songs, "By the Waters of Minnetonka," and " I n t h e Land of the Sky
Blue Waters."
