]K'tition tor (•ollef^e aud hif>h scliool
year hooks. Central State's annual book,
Praeco, for tlie second year in succession carried off iirst class honors. This
places it in the first ([uarter of the 4S!)
books entered, less than a quarter of
the year hooks making this grade.
First class honors were awarded to
those books which apparently had made
the most of their oppcjitunities in the
production of tlie annual.
Two years ago the Praeco received a
similar rating, when entered against
year books of normal schools and colleges having less than 300 students.
This Iiast year, due to the growth of tlio
Normal School, Praeco was rated in the
unlimited clas.s, books produced by all
normal schools and colleges over 300. Tt
stood as high as tlie year before.

Tlie fairy opera, "Hansel ami Gretel,"
was [ircseiiteil ill the auditorium Friday
evening, Octiiber 2!l at S: l.'i P. M. before the largi'st audience, in all probaliilily, that lias giilliercd in several
.\-('nrs 111 lii'iir a iiinsii-al iH'iforiiiauce in
t i l . ' SchlMll.

Till' nicinlirrs nf llie cast were given
many iiuiiiils of applause at the end of
eacli .-ii't, li,\- an niulicuce which entirely IIIIIMI the balcoiiy as well as the iii.aiu
lliior, with the exci'iilion only uf the
.se.ats on the cxtrenic edges of the lower
floor.
The cnst wns made up of three soprano
voices, nil nito, nud a liaiitone. During till' couise of the performance, two
nf the- iiieinliers played dual jiarts, which
1111 ly served to liring out their ability
t(i a greater degree.
The story of the opera follows that
of the f.airy tale, "Hansel and Gretel,"
with which every one is familiar. The
two children stray into the woods from
their liome and become lost. They fall
asleep nnd awake to find tJiemselves before the house of a cruel witch. The
two are under the power of the witch,
wild hns ;i dark end jilauned for them
until tlic\- outwit her and escape, to be
fiiiinil e\ciitiinlly liy their pnreuts.

Praeco did not c a n y off one of the
All-American cups. The score sheet has
not been returned, so that no report
can be made on exactly what points
the book fell short of championship
standards. In tlie college classes these
championsliip cups went to the year
books of Leland Stanford University, the
University of Kansas, the University of
Washington, the University of Indiana,
the Universit.v of Minnesota, and Southwest Texas State Teachers' College.
Pennsylvjinia books from this section
which were entered in the contest were,
in addition to Praeco, York High
School's Tatler; Wilkes-Barre High
School's Breidlin, Kane's Hurri-Kane;
St. Mary's High of Wilkes-Barre Miriam;
the Dart of Dickinson Seminary, Williamsport ; the Annual of Avalon; The
Academian of Shadyside Academy, Pittsburgh; the Candle of Highland Hall, Hollidaysburg; the Trumpet of Villa Maria
Academy, Erie. All of these received
first class honors.
Second class honors were given to
these Pennsylvania annuals: The Sheaf,
of Mt. St. Josephs, Philadelphia; the
Munhisko, of Munhall; the Trumpet, of
St. Gabriels, Hazleton; the Gaehtin
Bambil, of Lehighton; the Kit-Han-Ne,
of Kittunning; L.a Meinoire, of Williamsport; the Annual, Wilkinsburg.
In the third class group were the
Liber L, Altoona; Memories, Turtle
Greek, the Argus, of Central High, Harrisburg; the Wall Hoo, of Allegheny
High, Pittsburgh, and the Shawnee Arrow, of Plymouth.

NUMBER 3

The music was nf tlie finest and the
liunlity nf the .singing and acting
iiialchi'il it. The (laiici- nf the two angels,
while the children wcie sleeping, deserves »|ii'cinl mention.
About tlie week of October 17 many
rumors were alloat to the effect tliat
Central State Normal School was not
going to have its annual Hallowe'en
dance this year—liut—was there a
dance.'
There certainly was; .and
bigger and bi'tter tliaii ever.
Men for the occasion arrived as early
as ri'id.ay miirning, October 29, so that
by S.aturda.v evening, a])proxiniately two
hundred .voinig men were here to .attend
the dance. .
"(ioi-geons!"
"Beautiful!"
"Stuuiiiiig!'' were some of the exclamations
which issued from the girls as they entered the gym. It indeed was all of
that, for the faculty had worked hard
•anil long to make it attractive. Largo
clusters of leaves, in .all the beautiful
autunin colors, served as a roof under
whicli the ballet girls, gypsies and
Scotch lassies danced to the music of
the Lyric Orchestra. Witches, black
cats, and owls, with big shining eyes,
stared at the dancers from behind the
black trees on either side of the gym.

During intermission an appropriate
Hallowe'en lunch, consisting of apples,
dciughnuts and cider was served.
The success of this dance was due to
the efforts of the entire faculty and
especially to the following committees.
Social Committee: Miss Eoberts, chairman, Miss Whitwell, Miss Alber, Miss
.\therton, Miss Rearick, Mr. Dick, Mr.
Sullivan, Jlr. High, Miss Lesher and Miss
Dahle. Decoration Conunittee:
Miss
Atlierton, chairman, Miss Whitwell, Miss
Dixon, Mr. Dick and the members of
the Art Club. Invitation Committee:
Miss Roberts, chairman. Miss Whitwell
and Miss Lesher.
Aiiiong the many guests at the dance
were young men and women from every
coiner iif Pennsylvania, the niajorit.v,
as usual, coming from that refuge of
the iiartnerless State College. The Normal Sehool was glad to be able to act
as temporary host to them all.

about the big game he bad killed there.
It was prett.v hard tn believe, for in
all of his years with us he liiiil not so
much as shot it rabbit.
He was the chief entertainer of the
club; that is, if the others gave him a

had liecnme a realit.v to him.
This particular evening the subject

every one was excited. One of the men
told a story on Curley just to get him
going. It seemed that these two had
been hunting together that day when
signs of a bear became evident. Spike
said that since he had killed so many
bears in his time, he thought he'd just
lie low and see if Curley could shoot.
Well, Bruin eame along and Curley
mounted a tree. Shaking and shivering,
he could not load his gun to save himself, and by the time he was ready, the
hear had disappeared. This little yarn
served its jiurpose.
"Well, believe me, boys," he began,
"I've killed a few bears in my days,
Y'ou see, hunting laws were not so strict

them by the dozens. Once when my
brother Jim ;ind I went out, we had
six traps going all at once. We baited
them early one morning, and hid nearby
to see what would happen. We didn't
have long to wiiit. In just a little while,
there was an awful crashing in the underbrush, and prett.v soon the biggest
bear 1 ever laid eyes on came tearing
through. He had smelled the meat and
was headed straight for the t r a p . Jim
was kinda shiikiu', but I didn't feel a
bit nervous. Bruin began to eat and
just as he finished the cage door flew
shut with a bang.
"Instantly Bruin turned a n d showed

to shoot. Well, he wasted six shots, so
I took up my gun and fired. Mr. Bear
fell dead. We went to the other traps
and found bears in every last one of
them."
"Gild! you certainly laid them out t h a t
time, didn't you?" remarked Spike.
"Yes, and every one was bigger t h a n
the last."
"The same statement might be iipplied
to your yarns," agreed his tormentor.
"Maybe you don't believe it, but down

"Yes, they can sure think up the

"Well, all the liius don't come from

pointedly, giving Spike a mean look.
There was :i general uproar at this,
and he went on, "As I was saying, another time

"Now, daddy, I think you've killed
enough bears for one evening. Let's

"Sure," they idl agreed, "save some

OUR OWN LITTLE DIARY
Monday, October 25
Had dinner out this evening. I enjoyed m.vself a lot. Seemed rather funny
to be out for just one evening. I guess
I missed a lot of fun though. The kids
were all excited over something. I was
to be the judge when I eame in. I
didn't notice anything wrong, so it was
all right. They left me in the dark
for a while. Finally they told me.
Tott.v hasn't called for a long time.
I wonder wli niiuiages to call us once a week. Soincthing must have turned up.

Jirobably the reason.
I wish people on this floor wouldn't do

Nothing much happened today. Had

yet. We've been going to ever since
school started. I'd like to know something about it.
Had a letter from home. Thej''re pretty good at writing. Sometimes I think
something is wrong. Their letter writing probably goes in streaks.
Thursday, October 28
Went out to the movies. It was pretty
good. We were coming along the street
and I didn't notice where I was going
and fell up the curb. If Donuts hadn't
been there to catch me I would have
fallen flat. Not a very dignified position for a school teacher. We laughed
about it all the wdy up to school. I always have to pull something dumb. Only
natural, I suppose.

I look at her I can still see her coming
into the dance. The last thing she said
to me, "Oh, if he's short!" I could hardly see him!
A freight held us up this morning and
vve were late for church. When we did
arrive and were seated I never moved
iigain. I sat there iind didn't see or
hear a thing. T.acks said I wiis never
so quiet in all my life. Any one who

Got a letter from home today. I nearly strained my eyes looking for something. Wish I'd got another tomorrow.

woods we could liCiir the drop of t h e
chestnuts and beechnuts as they loosened their hold and came tumbling down
to their beds of leaves, ('hipmuuks and
sipiirrels were chiittering all about us.
They were busily traveling their highways, with their jaws packed full of
nuts. Now up a limb, now down another, they went. They needed no traffic cop, for each had iin individual road.
All were liu.sy storing up for winter.

If one wiints any real sport from

tiike the process of getting the nuts to
the ground into our own hands.
About three miles from home, at a
place known as Sugar Hill, was the best
chestnut woods in the country. Even
my father had gone there to gather
nuts when he was a bo.y, so every tree
in the grove was known to him.
The hill, which was more of a fl.at on
top of a mountain, was composed mostly
of clearings which had lung before been
deserted. The forest around was largely of cliestnut—fine, large, nut-bearing,
and free to any one.
There were, however, other gatherers
beside ourselves. Bears, 'coons, squirrels, iind other nut-eaters always grew
fat in tliat part of tho country. Those
iininials that gathered and stored, such
as the squirrels, alwa.vs hiid enough

This piirticuliir morning in inid-October, the sun came up facing a frostcovered earth. The air was snappy and

After the morning wiiik wiis done and
we had gathered up blankets, bags, pails,

After relieving that tree of its load
we went to another. Here the nuts had
all fallen and all we had to do was to
giither them. The size of these was siiiiiewliat sniiiller than those of the other
