Normal Takes Close One From
the Big Spring Tossers, but
Lose Season's Final
The lid.ys ended the home season on
Wednesday, .Vfai-ch 28, b.y jila.viug a
snappy, heart-disturbiug game -with
Bellefonte, which tlie.y won by a nose,
after the si-ore had been thrice tied, to
the tune of ^d^."!.
The ida.v was unexciting during the
first linlf, Avhi(-h ended 14-(i iu Normal's
favor. The audience was frankly yawning, the cheering had lost all iieji, and
the final score jironiised to be entirely
one-sided.
The second half brought a change.
Herman, who had gone in for Ray, began to get Ids eye ou the basket, and
liefore t h e half was five minutes old
Bellefonte liad tied up the score. Not
nntil then did the Normal team wake
up.
They had been caught sound asleep,
but from that time on there was no
sleep to be had for either team. With
victory in sight, the visitors were playing like Indians. Twice later was the
score tied. The galleries were cheering
so that t h e yells could be heard down
at tlie monument. With one minute and
a half to go the score was 23-2.'5 against
Normal.
The boys responded gallantly. A foul
and a field goal brought tlie score to
26-25, with twenty seconds to go. J u s t
as the timekeeper leaped to his feet to
call the end of tlie game, the referee's
whistle blew. A foul, aud on Normal!
Herman took the ball; poised himself;
shot carefully. The ball flew true to
tlie hooi), it seemed; but n o ! Just a
fraction out of the way, it struck the
hoop at an angle, rolled around and,
slowly, around again; hung undecided
for a lieart-breaking minute; and tlien
drojiped liarinlessly outside.

Normal school floor. Renovo slijiped
one over ou the boys, 30-21, obfaiuing
satisfaction for the defeat previously
handed to them at Eeuovo; and the
Kane High girls, iu the opening game
of the season for us, slipped in ahead of
Miss Butler's proteges.
Six members of tlie boys' squad will
receive their letters for the excellent
results of the season. Captain Marcy,
whose playing was a treat to wateli,
who was the strongest player on the
team, if any player is entitled to be
called so; Dawson MacDonald, whose
work at guard, paired off with Marcy,
was the reason so few baskets were
rung up li.y Ndriiiiil's o]i])oiients, whu
fdiiglit fd win ever.y uiduient frdin the

resulted in Normal scores, ,-ind whose
eagle e.ye and sfead.v hand cdiiverted

Schrot's runiiiug iiuite at fdrw.-ird, with
a fairl.y stead.y hand at drdiiiiing them
iu from the field, and a tosser of a mean
foul from the fifteen foot mark—note
in tho scoring table how those fouls
counted up during the season—; and
Albert Eberl.v, nianager of the team and
occasional substitute at guard; these are
the six who are certain to bear the
coveted letter on their jerseys from now
on. To these may be added another,
Chiirles Herbster, who has substituted
in four games at guard, and who, though
by no means a brilliant player, nevertheless put up a plucky, dogged game
that prevented many a score from being tossed that might otliervvise have
turned tlie final result of a close game.
It is believed that his letter will be

The girls' yar.sit.y team, iilii.yiug together under handicaps, but full of t h a t
old ('. S. X. S. fight, has ended its season with ;i tri]i iutu fereigu fields, a n d

Bellefonte had caused her physician to

games, and handled the ball with her
usual speed and skill, but she was n o t
able to cover the whole center of t h e

Injuries and penalties at Kane caused
the team to labor under extra heavy

Looking Backward
It was when the flu was spreading
that it happened. Every da.y we had
been hearing about a new victim. Each
of us was expecting to be the next one
to go to the infirniiay, a pleasant enough
place to which to go when one is ill,
but not ,-1 place for which to yearn wlieu
one's health is sfill .-ill that inight be
desired.
We had no desire wdiatever to become ill. If we liad to become ill, it
was our )iarticular desire to become ill
wdth anyfhing buf the tlu. So—we took
everj' diseoyerable precaution. We discussed soleuinl.y fhe value of all suggested preventives. N'Mjionib, Musterole,
quinine, ever.vthing that an.y one mentidu n e used, without moderation.
It was then that fhe rumor began td
siire.-id. Onions! No respectable fbi
germ mingles w-itli fr.-igments of onion,
or even williugl.v goes wliere the.v have
been! In onions there is strength!
It -was Pete wlio produced the onion.
She said that Kathr.yn Tribley had donated it to the needy of tliird floor
when she had left .scliiio]. The ver.v
age of the onion slie produced argued
in its favor as a brentli-])rdfector, tor
time had lent if increased vigor, even
as onions go. Tliird floor agreed that
it was fortunate that that onion had
not been produced a week later.
Willing hands cut it. The hands were
willing, though the eyes were weak. Cut
in half inch slices and placed between
twd startled crackers it was delicious.
The assembled company, spurred on by
thoughts of safety from the attacking
germs, ate nobly, ate till it hurt. When
each had reached the limits of his
strength, there was still half an onion
left.
Those who are ]ireiuiriug teachers
should be oiilj' too ready to share their
blessings with fiuhianify. These were.
Such an onion could and should, and, b.y
jingo, would go far. It was • divided
imioug three girls. The devoted three
went forth and 'spread the cure.
First, very carefully, it was rubbed
on Lydia's doorknob. Next, Anne Kennedy's bed was system.atically treated.
Then—who needed strength more than
Skinney? Cut into chunks, the onion
was rubbed and rubbed into the cracks
in the floor; that made it lasting.
And nobly did that onion do its work,
my children.
L.ydia reported on its
]iower, feelingl.y. Anne, fortified .'igainst
all tiossilile infection in three minutes,
slept elsewhere, and reported even more
feelingl.y. And Skinney? Did she report? Even so, and even more so. Skinney exploded. Then, as has gits, in this
vale of tears.
Skinney added the
strength of the onion to her own native endowment. Skinney went out of
her room and stayed out.
She was
strong enough to kill flu germs and
ever.yfhiug else on tliird, and she did
her best.
Did you notice how soon after that
the epdemie ceased, desisted, disapjieared ? Every germ in the place had
been scared to death.
Moral: J u s t the same, when you want
to gain strength, gain it yourself, and
leave the rest alone.
Relationship of Teacher
to the Community
Mr. Drum delivered, in chapel on
March 19, some more suggestions as to
the relationship of the teacher to the
comniunit,y iu wliich she teaches.
There are iii.-ui.v ways to establish contacts, he said, with an.v communit.v,
rural or urban. Contests iu as many
subjects as possible will interest mothers and fathers in the standing of their
children, and will focus their attention
ou the teachers and her school work.
Entertaiunients, pla.vs, and socials will
also bring fhe parents to school aud
keeji them interested; wdiile the charge
of a. sm.-ill admission fee will provide
money for .Honiethiiig that the school
needs.
The teachers must understand home
condifiiuis, and make it her business to
know fhe people in those homes, if for
no other reason tliau that of inakiug
her own school record good. If pujiils
cdiiie td scliool regularl.v, properly fed
and clothed, and on time, then aud U{d
until then can the teacher begin to get
the results she desired from her efforts
at te.'iching. If the teacher knows fhe
parents, she is in iiosition to do much,
by tactful suggestion, fo secure such
conditions.
The iinrenfs should, b.v one lueaus or
auofher, be induced to visit the school.
The.v should know wdicthcr the rooms in
wdiich their pujiils are attending are
properl.y lighted, heated, aud ventilated,
and also something of tho general sanitary conditions of the school.
All of these efforts indicate the possible value of a Parent-Teachers Association. They can reinforce the work
of the sehool, fight many of ifs battles, and secure man.y deirable additions to sehool equipment, such as books
to read, victrolas, etc. If the purpose
of the meetings of sucli an organization
are cleanly stated: that each is held for
the welfare of the children for whom
the teacher is working—the teacher is
usually..^ given wdiole-hearted community support.

seeking the four voices which would
blend better than any other combination, in order to get the best results.

Consteriiiition iiroso in the dormitories
n-hen it was learned, just Tiefore vaciition, t h a t nine of the girls, teachers
in the Lock Haven schools, were to stay
at school until March 29, and were to
return several days early, so as not to
interrupt the work of the city schools
ill which they were teaching. The weeping and gnashing of teeth could bo
lieard all over the campus.
A committee was appointed to go to
Dr. Benson and ask whether there was
not a possible chance for these nine
seniors to go home. He answered immediately, "Why, certainly you can go.
You are not expected to stay." This
word was carried to Mr. Di-um, who
at once reversed his decision, and permitted all seniors to leave and return
on the same dates. Once more the girls
were able to go along thoir ways, peaceful and happy.
We appreciate Mr. Drum's desire to
do nothing that would in any way repay badly the kindness of the Lock Haven school officials in extending the
privilege of doing practice teaching in
the local schools, b u t we hope that doing the right thing may not put us in
;is awkw.ard a frame of mind again.
Gosh! what a scare it gave u s !

Shake Meets Again
The year's at the spring,
The day's a t the morn.
Morning's a t seven.
The hillside's dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in his heaven—
All's right -wifli our Shakesiieare.
Perhaps Shake has been rather quiet
for the past few weeks, nevertheless she
has not been entirely asleep. Committees have bceir voluntarily organized for
tho purpose of carrying out an interesting as well as educative program for the
balance of the term.
The first meeting under the regime
of the new president, Ivan Mechtly, Wiis
held on Friday night, March 16. The
fidlowing program was arranged by
Helen Nace, and successfully carried
out:
1. The Life of Edgar A. Guest, Flora
Fletcher.
2. Review of "You Can't JAve on
Y'our Reputation," Nellie Johnson.
3. Songs, Little Brown Owl, Just
Awearying for You, Grace Ishler.
4. Piano Selections, Meditation, Melody of Love, Emily Brown.
5. Poems b y Guest: The .Toy of !i
Dog, At Breakfast Time, A Man Who
Couldn't Save, A Woman and Her
Checkbook, How Do You Tackle Y'our
Work; Beatrice Van Zandt.
6. Poems by Guest: An Easy Road,

Mother's Glasses, My P a Said So, The
Poet of Childhood, Home; Helen Nace.
Q U A L I T Y MEATS
No. 1: Mr. McDougall
The time has been wdien Mr. McDougall, the subject of these biographic
notes, which we hope to develop later
at our leisure, if the plate has not been
spoiled, used to be the most poinilar
man in tho training school. That was
before Warren McCarty tmd Fred Hunter started to do practice teaching.
Once only has he been known to
change his word. He had iiromised a
test, iind he gave a lecture on Emotion.
For weeks he has been busily emjiloyed upon the preparation of a course
of study. The juniors are hoping t h a t
this course is to include the interpretation of dreams.
When Mr. McDougall fails to get resjionses in school efficiency class, he begins fo present .vellow ciirds and the
subject for observation. This never fails
to put pep into Katherine Stangel.
Teaching assignments, seating a t tables, menus, including soup, recipes, pupils' lines of thought, and student teachers' self-oiiinions have all been changed,
but "27 obseryations arc required" alteretli not.
A little nonsense now and then is
relished, etc. Thus, Mr. McDougall and
Mr. Gage have been caught playing hide
and seek iu the halls of t h o training
school. Mr. Mac has iiuUed off a good
deal latel.v, especiiill.v liis tirctics.
We h.ave taught some without method.
We have studied without brains.
We've learned lesson plans must go in
If the sun shines or it rains.
We hand iu observations.
Get a four or get a five;
Rather get that than turn none in,
For that gets us skinned alive.
This poem is worth less than five;
Like us, it's done its liest.
If you can't be good, be careless—
Mr. Mac, give us a rest.
What Would Happen to Normal
Times If:
Mr. Drum forgot his Monday talk, and
There were no chapel exercises, and
Tho week-end callers went elsewhere,
and
Girls meetings were abolished, and
Belvie went to Palm Beach for a rest,
and
The infirmary were closed for the rest
of the year, and
Mr. Trembath no longer required the
juniors to scent news, and
Grit refused to publish any more school
newspapers?
Don't you know, Joanna? Don't you
honestly know? They would hang the
last issue on the front door; the sehool
would be dead.
O Temporal
and
For many months it was the fad
For girls to cut their braids.
And most folks sighed or stormed; twas
sad
To lose their long-haired maids.
PRODUCE
The girls still have their short-bobbed
hair
Plus artificial curls;
They'll soon hand out another scare
By copying Dutch girls.
ZUBER
&
SON
Y'cs, bangs have now become the rage.
But styles will change some more—
Won't we look funny wearing wigs
As in the days of yore?

the Normal girls were entirely unfamiliar. They put up a suiippy, aggressive
fight, however, and made the game at
all stages a dandy to watch.
The game at Clearfield was a much
peppier ufEtiir than the game on the
lociil gym floor. The Clearfield girls
phiyed better than they knew how, to
win oil their own floor, but the Normal
girls had the score comfortably in our
favor most of the game. The real feature of the giime ivas the iuiibility of
Kuth Summersgill, who had been rushed
in as forward because someone had to
play the position, to throw the ball anywhere but in the basket. Buth njakes
no claims fo be anything more than one
of the hardest working guiirds in the
stiite, and admits being short on science wheu if comes to shooting them in.
With her luck, science was superfluous.
Throw fhe ball, underhand, overhead,
backward, forward, both hands, either
hand, closoup, far away, and with luck
like hers it goes in. Euth did everything but bounce the ball in ou a dribble.

TIMES
REMINISCENT
OF CONFERENCES
The Grand Lodge of fhe Order of Exalted August Seers had met in the council ch.amber to discuss the momentous
questions that inight be propounded b.y
inquiring members of tlie junior class.
Gertrude Dolan, imperial president of
the bod.v, called the meeting to order,
thus: "Attention, comrades. This is
our first public meeting.
Our very
reputation depends ujion our iibilit.y to
soH'e the problems set for us by the
plobiiins in attendance."
"Oh, can we get our problems answered right away?" broke in the irrepressible Hiirriet White.
Casting a scornful glance at the child.
President Dobiu said, "Since your curiosity -will not stand the strain any longer, let us proceed."
"Well, what I want to know is—-in
fact, what I must know for my own
peace of mind—is: Why cannot a girl
pull herself out of a puddle by her own
galosh straps?"
Intermission wdiile the august bod.y
recovers its breath and dignity.
Cleona Coppersmith, becretary of the
order: " I move the question be put on
the table until the next meeting."
Preident Dolan, relievedly; "All in
favor, Siiy 'Aye'."
Motion is quickly carried.
President Dolan: "Next?"
Carl Hayes, the budding scientist:
"Er—il—just a little question that has
bothered me for some time. Er—a—-—"
President Dolan: "Less talk in the
same place, please; our time is valuiible."
Carl Hayes: "Well, what I want to
know i s : What would happen if an irresistible force met an immovable
body?"
Cleona: "I should say it would raise
thunder." She is quickly suppressed.
Chloroform did it.
After fifteen minutes careful thought,
Mar.y Hile said slowly. "Then the impossible would have happened."
Gertrude Dolan, wdth a magnificent
toss of her head, "That's it, exactly.
Proceed."
Evelyn Kiirn, rather scared: "My
question is a simple one: How would
one erase an indelible ink spot?"
Marie Crain, one of the select: "Lay
it on the table."
Motion quickl.y carried.
Albert Eberly, advancing to the rostrum:
"I believe you honored seers
stated some time .ago t h a t perpetual
motion was an impossibility?"
Gertrude: "We did."
Albert, with Gabrielitish gestures:
"Well, now, I'd like to cite an instance
of which I have heard. Black cat pelfs
are worth .$.2.5 apiece, so a man started
a black cat farm. He did not like to
have to jiay out his nioiie.y for feed, so
he started a rat farm on the next plot
of ground. He fed the rats to the cats;
that took care of them. He fed the
skinned cats to the r a t s ; t h a t took care
of them. Each took care of the other.
What is that if not perpetual motion?"
Gertrude, greatlj' perplexed:
"Any
suggestions?"
Cleona: "I'd call it Y''ankec ingenuity."
Gertrude, not satisfied: "Any other
suggestions?"
Marie: "Yep; lay it on the table."
Unanimously laid.
Haney, jumping up aud holding out
an armload of small snakes, and unmindful of the calamity wrought to
tight skirts and chair seats: "Here are
three snakes. Suppose they, when running around in a circle, caught each others' tails in their mouths and started
to swallow. W h a t would be the final
result?"
As tho question is swiftly laid on the
table, the tension relaxes. So do the
seers. Tumbling down from their perches,
they collapse in a complete faint. Audience collapses. After a few groaning
moments, table collapses.

Speaking of Corners
One of the finest examples of community co-operation is found right here
in Lock Haven. At a certain intersection of two streets there is a doctor's

quite convenient for t h e residents on

Some time since, he found on his desk

Normal Takes Close One From
the Big Spring Tossers, but
Lose Season's Final
The lid.ys ended the home season on
Wednesday, .Vfai-ch 28, b.y jila.viug a
snappy, heart-disturbiug game -with
Bellefonte, which tlie.y won by a nose,
after the si-ore had been thrice tied, to
the tune of ^d^."!.
The ida.v was unexciting during the
first linlf, Avhi(-h ended 14-(i iu Normal's
favor. The audience was frankly yawning, the cheering had lost all iieji, and
the final score jironiised to be entirely
one-sided.
The second half brought a change.
Herman, who had gone in for Ray, began to get Ids eye ou the basket, and
liefore t h e half was five minutes old
Bellefonte liad tied up the score. Not
nntil then did the Normal team wake
up.
They had been caught sound asleep,
but from that time on there was no
sleep to be had for either team. With
victory in sight, the visitors were playing like Indians. Twice later was the
score tied. The galleries were cheering
so that t h e yells could be heard down
at tlie monument. With one minute and
a half to go the score was 23-2.'5 against
Normal.
The boys responded gallantly. A foul
and a field goal brought tlie score to
26-25, with twenty seconds to go. J u s t
as the timekeeper leaped to his feet to
call the end of tlie game, the referee's
whistle blew. A foul, aud on Normal!
Herman took the ball; poised himself;
shot carefully. The ball flew true to
tlie hooi), it seemed; but n o ! Just a
fraction out of the way, it struck the
hoop at an angle, rolled around and,
slowly, around again; hung undecided
for a lieart-breaking minute; and tlien
drojiped liarinlessly outside.

Chiirles Herbster, who has substituted
in four games at guard, and who, though
by no means a brilliant player, nevertheless put up a plucky, dogged game

Looking Backward
It was when the flu was spreading
that it happened. Every da.y we had
been hearing about a new victim. Each
of us was expecting to be the next one
to go to the infirniiay, a pleasant enough
place to which to go when one is ill,
but not ,-1 place for which to yearn wlieu
one's health is sfill .-ill that inight be
desired.
We had no desire wdiatever to become ill. If we liad to become ill, it
was our )iarticular desire to become ill
wdth anyfhing buf the tlu. So—we took
everj' diseoyerable precaution. We discussed soleuinl.y fhe value of all suggested preventives. N'Mjionib, Musterole,
quinine, ever.vthing that an.y one mentidu n e used, without moderation.
It was then that fhe rumor began td
siire.-id. Onions! No respectable fbi
germ mingles w-itli fr.-igments of onion,
or even williugl.v goes wliere the.v have
been! In onions there is strength!
It -was Pete wlio produced the onion.
She said that Kathr.yn Tribley had donated it to the needy of tliird floor
when she had left .scliiio]. The ver.v
age of the onion slie produced argued
in its favor as a brentli-])rdfector, tor
time had lent if increased vigor, even
as onions go. Tliird floor agreed that
it was fortunate that that onion had
not been produced a week later.
Willing hands cut it. The hands were
willing, though the eyes were weak. Cut
in half inch slices and placed between
twd startled crackers it was delicious.
The assembled company, spurred on by
thoughts of safety from the attacking
germs, ate nobly, ate till it hurt. When
each had reached the limits of his
strength, there was still half an onion
left.
Those who are ]ireiuiriug teachers
should be oiilj' too ready to share their
blessings with fiuhianify. These were.
Such an onion could and should, and, b.y
jingo, would go far. It was • divided
imioug three girls. The devoted three
went forth and 'spread the cure.
First, very carefully, it was rubbed
on Lydia's doorknob. Next, Anne Kennedy's bed was system.atically treated.
Then—who needed strength more than
Skinney? Cut into chunks, the onion
was rubbed and rubbed into the cracks
in the floor; that made it lasting.
And nobly did that onion do its work,
my children.
L.ydia reported on its
]iower, feelingl.y. Anne, fortified .'igainst
all tiossilile infection in three minutes,
slept elsewhere, and reported even more
feelingl.y. And Skinney? Did she report? Even so, and even more so. Skinney exploded. Then, as has gits, in this
vale of tears.
Skinney added the
strength of the onion to her own native endowment. Skinney went out of
her room and stayed out.
She was
strong enough to kill flu germs and
ever.yfhiug else on tliird, and she did
her best.
Did you notice how soon after that
the epdemie ceased, desisted, disapjieared ? Every germ in the place had
been scared to death.
Moral: J u s t the same, when you want
to gain strength, gain it yourself, and
leave the rest alone.
Relationship of Teacher
to the Community
Mr. Drum delivered, in chapel on
March 19, some more suggestions as to
the relationship of the teacher to the
comniunit,y iu wliich she teaches.
There are iii.-ui.v ways to establish contacts, he said, with an.v communit.v,
rural or urban. Contests iu as many
subjects as possible will interest mothers and fathers in the standing of their
children, and will focus their attention
ou the teachers and her school work.
Entertaiunients, pla.vs, and socials will
also bring fhe parents to school aud
keeji them interested; wdiile the charge
of a. sm.-ill admission fee will provide
money for .Honiethiiig that the school
needs.
The teachers must understand home
condifiiuis, and make it her business to
know fhe people in those homes, if for
no other reason tliau that of inakiug
her own school record good. If pujiils
cdiiie td scliool regularl.v, properly fed
and clothed, and on time, then aud U{d
until then can the teacher begin to get
the results she desired from her efforts
at te.'iching. If the teacher knows fhe
parents, she is in iiosition to do much,
by tactful suggestion, fo secure such
conditions.
The iinrenfs should, b.v one lueaus or
auofher, be induced to visit the school.
The.v should know wdicthcr the rooms in
wdiich their pujiils are attending are
properl.y lighted, heated, aud ventilated,
and also something of tho general sanitary conditions of the school.
All of these efforts indicate the possible value of a Parent-Teachers Association. They can reinforce the work

of the meetings of sucli an organization
are cleanly stated: that each is held for
the welfare of the children for whom
the teacher is working—the teacher is

n-hen it was learned, just Tiefore vaciition, t h a t nine of the girls, teachers
in the Lock Haven schools, were to stay
at school until March 29, and were to
return several days early, so as not to
interrupt the work of the city schools
ill which they were teaching. The weeping and gnashing of teeth could bo
lieard all over the campus.
A committee was appointed to go to
Dr. Benson and ask whether there was
not a possible chance for these nine
seniors to go home. He answered immediately, "Why, certainly you can go.
You are not expected to stay." This
word was carried to Mr. Di-um, who
at once reversed his decision, and permitted all seniors to leave and return
on the same dates. Once more the girls
were able to go along thoir ways, peaceful and happy.
We appreciate Mr. Drum's desire to
do nothing that would in any way repay badly the kindness of the Lock Haven school officials in extending the
privilege of doing practice teaching in
the local schools, b u t we hope that doing the right thing may not put us in

Q U A L I T Y MEATS
No. 1: Mr. McDougall
The time has been wdien Mr. McDougall, the subject of these biographic
notes, which we hope to develop later
at our leisure, if the plate has not been
spoiled, used to be the most poinilar
man in tho training school. That was
before Warren McCarty tmd Fred Hunter started to do practice teaching.
Once only has he been known to
change his word. He had iiromised a
test, iind he gave a lecture on Emotion.
For weeks he has been busily emjiloyed upon the preparation of a course
of study. The juniors are hoping t h a t
this course is to include the interpretation of dreams.
When Mr. McDougall fails to get resjionses in school efficiency class, he begins fo present .vellow ciirds and the
subject for observation. This never fails
to put pep into Katherine Stangel.
Teaching assignments, seating a t tables, menus, including soup, recipes, pupils' lines of thought, and student teachers' self-oiiinions have all been changed,
but "27 obseryations arc required" alteretli not.
A little nonsense now and then is
relished, etc. Thus, Mr. McDougall and
Mr. Gage have been caught playing hide
and seek iu the halls of t h o training
school. Mr. Mac has iiuUed off a good
deal latel.v, especiiill.v liis tirctics.
We h.ave taught some without method.
We have studied without brains.
We've learned lesson plans must go in
If the sun shines or it rains.
We hand iu observations.
Get a four or get a five;
Rather get that than turn none in,
For that gets us skinned alive.
This poem is worth less than five;
Like us, it's done its liest.
If you can't be good, be careless—
Mr. Mac, give us a rest.
What Would Happen to Normal
Times If:
Mr. Drum forgot his Monday talk, and
There were no chapel exercises, and
Tho week-end callers went elsewhere,
and
Girls meetings were abolished, and
Belvie went to Palm Beach for a rest,
and
The infirmary were closed for the rest
of the year, and
Mr. Trembath no longer required the
juniors to scent news, and
Grit refused to publish any more school
newspapers?
Don't you know, Joanna? Don't you
honestly know? They would hang the
last issue on the front door; the sehool
would be dead.
O Temporal
and
For many months it was the fad
For girls to cut their braids.
And most folks sighed or stormed; twas
sad
To lose their long-haired maids.
PRODUCE
The girls still have their short-bobbed
hair
Plus artificial curls;
They'll soon hand out another scare
By copying Dutch girls.
ZUBER
&
SON
Y'cs, bangs have now become the rage.
But styles will change some more—
Won't we look funny wearing wigs
As in the days of yore?

WITH EVEN BREAK
(Continued from page 1)
the Normal girls were entirely unfamiliar. They put up a suiippy, aggressive
fight, however, and made the game at
all stages a dandy to watch.
The game at Clearfield was a much
peppier ufEtiir than the game on the
lociil gym floor. The Clearfield girls
phiyed better than they knew how, to
win oil their own floor, but the Normal
girls had the score comfortably in our
favor most of the game. The real feature of the giime ivas the iuiibility of
Kuth Summersgill, who had been rushed
in as forward because someone had to
play the position, to throw the ball anywhere but in the basket. Buth njakes
no claims fo be anything more than one
of the hardest working guiirds in the

With her luck, science was superfluous.
Throw fhe ball, underhand, overhead,

hand, closoup, far away, and with luck
like hers it goes in. Euth did everything but bounce the ball in ou a dribble.

TIMES
REMINISCENT
OF CONFERENCES
The Grand Lodge of fhe Order of Exalted August Seers had met in the council ch.amber to discuss the momentous
questions that inight be propounded b.y
inquiring members of tlie junior class.
Gertrude Dolan, imperial president of
the bod.v, called the meeting to order,
thus: "Attention, comrades. This is
our first public meeting.
Our very
reputation depends ujion our iibilit.y to
soH'e the problems set for us by the
plobiiins in attendance."
"Oh, can we get our problems answered right away?" broke in the irrepressible Hiirriet White.
Casting a scornful glance at the child.
President Dobiu said, "Since your curiosity -will not stand the strain any longer, let us proceed."
"Well, what I want to know is—-in
fact, what I must know for my own
peace of mind—is: Why cannot a girl
pull herself out of a puddle by her own
galosh straps?"
Intermission wdiile the august bod.y
recovers its breath and dignity.
Cleona Coppersmith, becretary of the
order: " I move the question be put on
the table until the next meeting."
Preident Dolan, relievedly; "All in
favor, Siiy 'Aye'."
Motion is quickly carried.
President Dolan: "Next?"
Carl Hayes, the budding scientist:
"Er—il—just a little question that has
bothered me for some time. Er—a—-—"
President Dolan: "Less talk in the
same place, please; our time is valuiible."
Carl Hayes: "Well, what I want to
know i s : What would happen if an irresistible force met an immovable
body?"
Cleona: "I should say it would raise
thunder." She is quickly suppressed.
Chloroform did it.
After fifteen minutes careful thought,
Mar.y Hile said slowly. "Then the impossible would have happened."
Gertrude Dolan, wdth a magnificent
toss of her head, "That's it, exactly.
Proceed."
Evelyn Kiirn, rather scared: "My
question is a simple one: How would
one erase an indelible ink spot?"
Marie Crain, one of the select: "Lay
it on the table."
Motion quickl.y carried.
Albert Eberly, advancing to the rostrum:
"I believe you honored seers
stated some time .ago t h a t perpetual
motion was an impossibility?"
Gertrude: "We did."
Albert, with Gabrielitish gestures:
"Well, now, I'd like to cite an instance
of which I have heard. Black cat pelfs
are worth .$.2.5 apiece, so a man started
a black cat farm. He did not like to
have to jiay out his nioiie.y for feed, so
he started a rat farm on the next plot
of ground. He fed the rats to the cats;
that took care of them. He fed the
skinned cats to the r a t s ; t h a t took care
of them. Each took care of the other.
What is that if not perpetual motion?"
Gertrude, greatlj' perplexed:
"Any
suggestions?"
Cleona: "I'd call it Y''ankec ingenuity."
Gertrude, not satisfied: "Any other
suggestions?"
Marie: "Yep; lay it on the table."
Unanimously laid.
Haney, jumping up aud holding out
an armload of small snakes, and unmindful of the calamity wrought to
tight skirts and chair seats: "Here are
three snakes. Suppose they, when running around in a circle, caught each others' tails in their mouths and started
to swallow. W h a t would be the final
result?"
As tho question is swiftly laid on the
table, the tension relaxes. So do the
seers. Tumbling down from their perches,
they collapse in a complete faint. Audience collapses. After a few groaning
moments, table collapses.

The life and works of Edgar A. Guest
was the subject of the evening. The
program was as follows:

Song—^"Shakespeare for Me"—Society.
Helen Nace was chairman of the comluitteo who had charge of the program.
Speaking of Corners
One of the finest examples of community co-operation is found right here
in Lock Haven. At a certain intersection of two streets there is a doctor's
lesidence on one corner, an undertaker's establishment on fhe other, and a
church on the third corner. This is
quite convenient for t h e residents on
the fourth.

one over. Red seems to be the most
popular color, with a few sky blue ones
being worn by those whose hair agrees
too violently with the red.

In Danger of Arrest
The Soeiet.y for the Protection of Innocent Offenders is requested to take
under advisement t h e case of Mr. Levi
J. Ulmer, incautious head of the science
department in this state of servitude.
Some time since, he found on his desk
a dead bird, which had been found by
a pupil, lying in a back yard. I t took
his scientific eye. He decided that it
—it is the bird we are discussing, not
the back yard—would make a good
specimen.
He sent it, therefore, to
a Williamsport taxidermist.
He now
finds himself the recipient of an official
letter from Washington, in which he is,
in cold official language, requested to
state just why, how, when, and where
the bird was shot. Mr. Ulmer may not
be with us long. How we shall miss
him!

Just before the Clearfield game one
of our more brilliat students was showing il visitor the points of interest about
the dormitory. As they passed Miss
Groff's room, the stranger asked, "Who
lives there?"
"Oh, that is wdiere Miss Groff lives.
She is the office girl."
Step right up and answer, Miss Groff:
Which is your more important duty,
emptying fhe waste baskets or winding
the office clock?
Mrs. A. G. Barrett, from Irvona, surprised her sister, Gertrude Harper, on
Tuesday evening, March 20. She left the
following day for Williamsport, b u t returned on Thursday to make sure that
Gertrude did not miss the train home
for Easter.
Miss Leah Schaup, of Johnstown, liked
the place so well t h a t she had to come
back for another visit.
Many happy
returns, Leah, many of them.
