Over Last Year
Central State has started into its newest sehool year with another gain in
enrollment. That gain is only 35 over
last term, which is disappointingly less
than all advance indications would h.ave
seemed to indicate; but still it is a g.ain,
and since that gain is in the junior class,
as comiiared with the junior class last
year, it is an indication that the schoel
is ill healthy eiindition, that the dull
days of 1919 are frilling farther and
farther behind.
Students started arriving on Sunday',
in order to get an early start on registnations the following niorning. The big
crowds began to arrive with the enrly
Monday trains, and every train that day
from every direction brought its quota
of new or old students to Locli Haven.
Tho "gym" was a livelj' place for several hours ou Monday. All the students
were eager to meet "with Mr. Ritter and
to hand over pa's hard-earned cash.
After that little ceremony they traveled
on to fill out programs, to get an outline of a good term's work. Of course
the juniors wanted to take everything
in sight, but the wiser seniors passed
np everything that looked like work.
That is one reason why so few stopped
a t Mr. Trembath's table.
Some, while waiting for their turns,
spent the time wisely in eyeing np the
new faculty members. " I bet a cook.v
that ono over there is the new 'gym'
teacher." "No, 1 think she is the music
teacher; she has such .a musical look

The Scout Meet
The three scout classes handled by
Scout Executive Hoxworth met in a typical scont contest on Monday of the last
week.
Points were awarded in six
events: Signalling, firemaking with the
primitive bow and drill, firemaking with
flint and steel, rope-making, knot tying,
and water boiling. The 10:20 class carried off the meet with 19 points total,
the 8:20 class finishing second with 115
]ioints, just nosing out the 9:20 class,
which ran up just two less points. The
two losing classes gave the winners a

The open season for football is here,
and this year Central State's .athletic
fleld is not abysnnally silent. Instead
there conies across the campus "Signals
off," "Get into that, big boy," and the
thuiiqiing of footballs and thud of
cleated feet. C. S. N. S. is getting back
on the map.
The squad is too small for expectations
to be set high. There are but fifteen
men out for practice, and a number of
these have had no football experience of
any kind. There is no way in which
scrimmage practice, the training sehool
of football development, can be obtained. On the other hand, the men are
full of pep and fight. They snap into
plays with a determination that more
accustomed players often are without.
They have ]iicked np the elements of tho
game suriirisingly rapidly, and act and
move and look like a real team. The first
energetic awkwardness has ilisa|)|)eareil.
For the improvement in the squad all
thanks .are duo to S. L. Wolfe, director
of Conimiinit.v Service here in Lock
Haven, whose services as coach the school
is lucky to secure. Before coming to
liOck Haven, as coach of the Wendell
I'liillilis High School, of Chicago, of the
Faribault (Minnesota) High Schools, and
of Triadelphia of Wheeling, W. Va., and
Cory, Pa., he hung up enviable records.
He is nijiking a team out of Normal's
small squad in spite of every obstacle.
At present the team is lining up with
Fat Folhner at left end, Vic Haney at
left tackle, Paul Vonada at left guard.
Woody Woodward at center. Doc Brelimaii at right guard, Carl P.ensoii Hayes
al right tackle, .Mliert llaiike at right
nid, .lake Ward at quarter, Tim Ferguson at left half, Carl Schrot at right
half, and IJvahl Erickson at fullback.
Abie Smelt/.er, Carl Siiinke, and Cliristion Feit are making things uneasy for
a few on the team, and are depeiidable
subs.
Manager Blackford has had a late start
at sclu'dulc m.aking. He is not likely
to be able to incsent a full schedule on
that account, but he has written to
Nortliuiiilierland, Dickinson Seminary,

Our Nature Corner^
This corner is intended to be inter
esting to all, but it is meant fo be especiall,y useful to tlmse of our friends who
are now teacliing.
Nature study can only be justified
pedagogically when it is iiiti'restiiig. Na
ture stiid\' becomes interesting onI\'
through intelligent oliservation; therefore we iiresiiit in this corner from time
to time simple iiliservations that an.v
teacher can ask her children to make,
We hope that they will be used to stimulate observation among her pupils.
Have the jiupils jnit info writing what
they have seen when making these oliservations, iind send them to the Nature
Study Department of C. S. N. S. We
will select the best of these communications and iniblish them each month. We
will welcome also questions asked by
pupils or teachers, and Avill answer them
here or by individujil letter, whichever
seems better.
For these October observations we have
selected insects.
Observations
1. Search for large caterpillars. Feed
fhem under glass. Tell what liappens.
The iiarsley worm and fhe milkweed
worm are particularly interesting.
2. Worms that turn info moths spin
cocoons; those that turn into butterflies spill chrysalids. Watch this change;
what happens to yours?
.".. If you find a parsley worm (.vou
may lind it on parsley, carrots, or celery) touch it on the head several times.
Note the horns, or scent organs. This
worm turns into the black swallowtail
butterfly.
4. The milkweed caterpillar turns into
a beautiful green chrysalid, marked with
gold—how? This is one of nature's most
beautiful jewels.
5. Keep the cocoons of the largest
caterpillars until spring; the moth will
not appear until then. Don't forget to
tell ns just what happened to yours.
6. Observe any butterflj^ you are interested in, and describe it carefully.
Name all the butterflies that you know.
7. Don't forget to send your letters to
the Nature Study Department, 0. S. N.
S.; maybe yours will be one to be
printed here next month. Be sure to
give your name, your address, and your
school and teacher's name.

New Arbor Opened
The Arbor is no more; long live the
Arbor. The old building which is intimately connected with many a C. S. N. S.
alumna's recollectest thoughts is gone.
Immediatety after the close of the summer session workmen fell on it and
wrecked it. In its place is a new, a
larger, a spie and span Palais d'Eats.
The main room has been widened and
deepened. Broad new mndows have
been placed in the front and on each
side, admitting a comparative flood of
light. A wide, roofed porch lias been
placed .across the front, trim, tidy, and
inviting. There .are more tables, a more
serviceable new kitchen, and more eats
than in the good old days. The Arbor,
with its new atmosphere of fresh paint,
fresh varnish, and fresh eats, is a mighty
pleasant jilace to go now, and to go often,
if your pocketliook can stand file strain.

Furthering the Tennis Interest CROWDED WEEK ENDS
K\fv since school opened on the sevenleeiifli of last month the tennis courts
have been ill almost constant use. 'riie
courts are not iu ]ierl'e<-t coiulifion, but
the school has iloiu' what it could to
ni.ake and kee]i fhem so. Men h.ave been
working hard, marking, rolling, scraping,
to keep them up to their best eoiidifioii,
hut till' rain, the wind, ami the many
players are keeping tlie lime marks
mixed with the dust.
Central State's tennis courts are better
than most schools can boast, on account
of this school's geogra]iliic location.
They are made of a loamy cla.y, the best
natural material to be had. Also, the.v
have been laid out north and south, so
that the sun seldom strikes the eyes of
an.v of the jilayers. That may partially
account for the popularity of the game
here.
The best test of the hold that tennis
has here is the number of students who
have purchased rackets since their arrival. The care given the courts and
fhe wise provision of cheap rackets for
the use of those still green to the game
and undecided as to how it will take to
fhem have liel|)ed to increase the normal nuniber of tennis enthusiasts. Ever.v
condition seems to be ripe for a tennis
boom. All that would seem to be necessary would be a little organization;
county tournaments, school tonrnanients,
beginners' tournaments, something of the
sort.
Who will start the ball rolling?

Campfire Girls Hold Vigil
The following morning Mrs. McCormick's Campfire Girls held a t.vpical
vigil on the .auditorium platform, giving
all those who had not tiiken the work
n taste of what Campfire work is like.
The last Wednesda.y chapel period of
the sumnier was given over to the Campflre Girls, so that they might liold a, public vigil and give to the many members
of the student bod.y who were unable
to enroll in tho courses this snmmer some
idea of the work of the Campflre. For
three-quarters of an hour one could have
heard a pin drop, so intently did the
audience .absorb with both e.ves and ears

marched in from the rear of the hall,
singing, and took their jilaces on the platform, sitting, Indian fashion. Nell Holton, Florence Shaw, and Alice Merrow
lit the three flres of Campflre; Mrs. Fred
McCormick gave the ceremonial prayer;
and Hilma Bergson, Virginia Howe, and
Elizabeth Williams extinguished the
fires. A one-minute vigil and a Campflre song followed.
Nine of the girls then shared in explaining the ideals and the work of
Campfire. Ruth Mitsehke told how new
campflres inight be started. Irma Cnrns
explained the use of the honor beads.
Frances Long told of the Health and
Character Charts which each girl kept.
Dorothy Moreau talked of swimming ami
camping. Cora Holmes gave next the
little talk which got too close to the
hearts of her audience for them to obey
the injunction against applause, the little
talk thiit we are using in this issue as
an editorial. Mar.y Kephart exhibited
the bead head-bands and the Campfire
memory books. Leola Griswold spoke on

Caiiipfire songs. To Frances Long and

ceremonial collars, for the all around
excellence of their Campfire work. The
most coveted honor, the Su.san Ryerson

Mrs. McCormick goes and has gone unstinted praise for the work she has done;
the value of her results and her own
earnestness and sincerity have established Campfire as an integral p a r t of
all future Central State summer sessions. Wc hope that similar work ma.y
ver.y soon be part of the life of the
regular year.

Dempsey Retains Title
.lack Dempsey Lynds, recent conqueror
of one Luis Firpo, has added another
successful battle to her ring record,
crushing the claim to ring supremacy
of Georg Carpentier Beaujon in the
fourth round.
The bout was staged in room 128, before an audience that fllled every seat.
At the sound of the opening gong the
two athletes spr.ang at each others'
throats, fists and hairpins flying. Rules
were completely disregarded,
brute
strength displacing skill.
For three rounds the bout was even.
No blows were struck, although three of
the spectators had to be carried out and
revived. In the fourth round, two seconds after the opening gong, Carpentier
succumbed to a fit of giggling, from
which not even the frantic flapping of
a towel, wielded by her seconds, eould
revive her. At the fatal count of ten
Dempsey likewise collapsed, and had to
have a towel stuffed in her mouth to
quiet her shrieks. This technical violation of the rules of the ring was overlooked by the referee, the fight having
officially ended.

Building' Brotherly Love
At a C.aniptire Girl cerenionial, held in
our auditorium just at the end of the
suninier session, Cora Holmes, one of our
summer session students taking the
Campfire training course, gave a little
heart to heart talk that drew ajiiilause,
strenuous apjilanse, even though forbidden apjilause, from that auditoriumfilling summer crowd. May we repeat it
here?
"There are Campflres in seventeen
countries, although America and England
liave the nicst. It was started in America, and we want it to spread to French
girls and German girls and Chinese girls,
to girls everywhere; first, so that they
can get out of it the precious things that
we do, and, second, so that it may tie
the girls of different countries togethei
in friendship.

Improving Normal Times
With this iiiiniber Normal Times begins its second year of life iind of service fo Central State's alumni ami nn
dergraduates. Wish us well.
.\ siirve.v of accomplishment last year
leaves us with ver.v few regrets. We
pulilish everything of importance that
liaiqieiied in fhe life of this school. We
published several hundred of those
llavorfiil, iiniuiiHirfaut incidents that
color the life of the school, that mean
livel.v school life in what, minus such
incidents, would be just an institution.
We .stood for whatever the student body
.seemed fo believe. We have done our
Iiart, and we do not believe it a small
part, in letting the school world outside
of this school know wdiat went on here;
we believe that our share has been no
small one in making the school enrollment grow.
We have no important changes in policy to make, therefore. We start in this
issue several new features, in the same
deliberate efl'ort to be of service that
aniniated us last .vear.
Note the new Our Nature Corner. This
section of the paper is entirely under
Mr. Hlnier's control and inspiration.
Several .years ago he nsed to send observation questions like those to a hundred schools, mostly rural, in our general
territory. The pressure of increasing
work maile the labor of writing, addressing, iiiailing, and answering entirely too
great; the nature leaflets disapjieared.
Dozens of teachers have asked him to
start them up again. Here they are in
Normal Times, where every subscribing
teacher may get them, and where aspiring pupils with open eyes and opening
minds ma.y see their observations given
the importance of print in a real magazine.
In this issue starts also an exchange
corner, wherein Velma Ridge will place
everything of consequence to us that occurs in all the normal schools and colleges witli whom we maintain exchange
relations. We keep the school in touch
here with normal schools from Maine
to California; our exchange papers are
numerous, widely distributed, and rapidly increasing.
Yon can't do a better thing for this
school than to boost the subscription list

Some apparently torgoften rules were
recalled by Miss Yale a t an important
gilds' nieeting, held in the auditoriuni
on the evening of September 2(i. A few
new regulations were also presented for
student vote, and adopted with little
(qiliosifion. Leaders were chosen for the
church-going parties ou Suinlay evening.
.'\fter Miss Yale had given some interpretations of types of study hours, interpretations which drew a good deal
of applause, regulations were adojited
leading to better study conditions. It
was possible to adjourn the nieeting
after a nuniber of those present had
been awakened.
The football team has made its appearance in spick and span new uniforms. With the arrival of the togs the

The first Saturday niglit dance of the
year was successful enough. The students who were able to dance each gave
several dances to those who desired to
learn, so that everyone had a chance
to enjoy himself.
Captains for the delegations who wish

Catharine Rank; Reformed, Marie Taennler.
The training school in the first fire

Nature Class Gathers Insects
i l r . r i m e r ' s nature study classes have
begun their fall fleld trips. ""^P. first
of these came off on Wednesday, when
the classes went out after insects,
across tl -• campus, over the tennis courts,
up the Boys' Glen, and along the hillside roads fo the old reservoir.
The first success of the trip was Mr,
Ulmer's capture of a damsel fly, caught
before the crowd had left the campus.
He explained its life history briefly,
then haniled it fo Carl Schrot, official
bearer of the cyanid bottle, for further despatch of business.
A number of insects, many more nervous shocks, and continual giggling and
screaming were the net results of the
trip, to which must be added one small
:'rog, captured bare handed and carried
in pocket b.v—a girl.
The captures were stretched and
mounted at the reservoir, Mr. Ulmer explaining how and rendering needed assistance.

Juniors and Bells
"Oh, the tintinnabulation of the bells,
bells, bells."
Worse than the haunting quality of
Poe's repetitive poem is the sound of all
the bells of C. S. N. S. to a little, newly
Hedged Junior when, without a handbook, without any knowledge of the
rules and regulations and BELLS of the
building she enters upon her first day's
work.
She wears out her ears listening for
each recurrence, b u t either they rang
when she is otherwise mentally occupied
or they have somehow been muffled, for
she never (which alwaj's means "hardly
ever") hears them. She misses her dinner. She misses her classes. She misses
her appointments.
She misses everything and anything, though she misses
dinner most.
One little Junior woke up at Belvie's
alarm on her first morning here, and
called—half the dorm lieard her—
"Mother, the meat man is out front."
If she is a wise little Junior she scurries over to the gymnasium after the
first real catastrophic miss, and from
out the wreckage of Registration Day
she salvages one of the Alpha Tau's
handbooks. If she is a foolish one, she
learns by trial and errors; many errors
and not infrequent trials.
Eventually
she is able to find her way about without regard to time—by which time she
can scarc(dy be told in any other wa.v

SHAKES A SYNCOPATED FOOT
A barrel of fun, a bushel of eats, and
a real orehestr.a indueed everybody that
was able to attend the dance given to
the Juniors by Shakespeare Literarj^ Society in the gym on Friday, September
28. It seemed ages since our tiny feet
had twinkled over the floor a t the inspiration of a real orchestra.
About the hour of nine a signal was
given, and a grand march formed. As
a certain table was passed, each marcher
took a bottle of pop, a nabisco, and
cookies. Dancing started up after the
eats, and quit at the usual time—an
hour too soon.
PRICE'S FIRST MEETING
The Juniors, enrolled at C. S. N. S.
less than a week, were invited to be
present at the opening meeting of Price
Literary Society, Fridaj' evening, September 21. Price's program had been

Price Holds Picnic
Price Literary Society held i t s second
festivity for the entertainment of all
new students a n d of its own members.
The fun this time took the form of a
picnic at Agar's Park, near Mill Hall.
Every minute of the time from 2:.'!0,
when the crowd took the trolley, until
7:15, when they again hit the campus,
was full of excitement. The early afternoon was spent in dancing, seesawing,
swinging, sliding the slides, and otherwise trying out the park's amusements.
Later two baseball teams were chosen,
composed mainly of girls, most of whom
were green to the sport. NetiX White's
aggregation took Virginia Harnish's into
camp, 4-2. A second short KM mi', in
whieh nearly all tho girls who had not
been in the first contest were called into play, resulted in a :!-2 victory for
Virginia's new outtit.

SECOND FLOOR EAST
(Song b y Beatrice "Harris and Anna
Smith, to the tune of Aloha Oe).
We must p a r t ; our nine weeks are
through;
The time has come to say goodby.
And, old east, the second floor will miss
All your happy faces and your weary
sighs.
Chorus
So goodby to you, for we must part,
With hojie to see you all back here again.
So goodby, old pals, we'll s.ay "So long"
to you
Until we meet again.
Sweet the thoughts we bear away with
us.
Dear memories of this happy past;
And though now we whisper, "Fare thee
well."
Yet we know your memories will always
last.
Reading, A Voice From a Far Country,
Letitia Mackey

There are some very good lookers.
But many are cookers,
But yes, we have some nice girls,'
We have some nice girls this year.

W H E N you know your hat is
becoming, you can get the last
ounce of joy out of every minute
of life.

(Aloha Oe)
How dear to us is C. S. N. S.
Where we have spent the sunimer past;
While we're now .about to go from here.
We are glad this is not to be our last
Chorus
Farewell to thee, oh, Central State,
Our pleasant summer session now is
ended.
We hate to leave the friends we've made.
But know we'll meet again.

We'll carry thoughts of memories tender.
At the closing of these summer joys,
And the farewells we shall say in parting.
Shall be dearer for tho thoughts of Central State.
Swiftly passed the weeks of joy and fun;
Now we needs must leave you, one and
all;
While the song of classmates parting
grief
Sadly echoes along our Normal halls.
SECOND FLOOR WEST
Yells for Mae Sughrue and Miss Yale.
Who a r e we? Who are we?
We are we are we are we.
It's no l i e ; it's no bluff;
Second floor west is just the stuff.
The Spirit of '23
Recitation by Verna Reams
We've all had tho spirit,
Faculty members, girls and boys;
"We've shared each others' sorrows
And we've shared each others' joys."
There were times when all were troubled.
Looking sad and discontent.
But—we've followed in the footsteps
Of the way the others went.
We appreciate our principal.
Who with kindness all folks greets
And our Dean, the dearest lady.
She who guides our wayward feet.
And we surely love our teachers.
Who with gentleness unfold
Truth and knowledge, love and wisdom.
Better yet t h a n finest gold.

But the time has come for parting.
And with lieavy hearts we leave
All the faculty behind us,
Who we know for us will grieve.
But cheer u p , dear faculty.
In the summer of '24

General Chorus
Yells for Esther Bodgers and Miss Y.ale.
Yes, wo have a good faculty.
(Leave Me With a Smile)
We have a good faculty this year.
Our school days are over;
We have long ones and thin ones and
We'll no longer hover
thick ones and slim ones,
In the old school hall.
And all kinds of good sports here.
Though we hate to leave you,
We have a n old mathematician,
And we know 'twill grieve you.
A young dietician.
Yet we have to go.
But yes, we have a good faculty,
Maybe we weren't clever,
We have a good faculty this year.
Yet we stuck together.
Yes, we have some nice girls.
And we know we're best.
We have some nice girls this year.
We will leave a record
They like to go down town with a great
So t h a t you'll remember
