COWBOYS READY
FOR MORE
Two Games This Week
Fraser Gange , baritone , made a
big hit Friday night when he gave
a concert . He substituted for John
Barclay on our regular Musical Artists' program. We, the students,
were glad for the substitution and
ask for him again.
A pleasing part of this program
was the note of informalit y introduced by the singer. He made friends
with every one. One number of his
p r ogram wa s t he f am iliar "Loch Lomond". He asked the audience to
j oin with him in the chorus. The response ol' the students must have
gladdened his heart. He exclaimed
that
was splendid.
¦ Heit was
obliged to respond four
time to cries of "encor e" from t he
assemblage . He graciously complied.
He sang "Mandelay" by Rudyard
Kipling in a way to make the poem
live in the hearts and minds of his
listeners. The' ex pr essi o n i n his voice ,
face and body was wonderful and
made each phrase vivid and real. He
was at his best when he sang "The
Two Grenadiers " by Schumann. He
had the swing and rhythm to perfection.

TEACHER TRAINING FACILITIES
Next semester there will be 55
teachers at the Normal School , 18 in
the town , and 8 in the rural districts
engaged in the training of prospective teachers. This will make a total
of 81 thus employed.
In the Training School of the Normal School there are now 318 pupils ;
the 18 local teachers have about 720
pupils in charge ; the rural teachers
have about 240 pupils under them.
This makes a grand total of 1278 pupils to whom tho students have access for student teaching purposes.
At no time are there more than 160
seniors engaged in teaching, which
makes on the average of 8 pupils to
a student. This makes an excellent
showing.

section , as was done in soccer .
The Seniors have already played
off their match games this week. The
Flying Squad beat the Coolies 12-9.

JUNIOR PLAY UNDER WAY
The Juniors have at last come to
a life of activity . They are beginning to live what Roosevelt called a
strenuous life.
Preparations and rehearsals are
under way for the annual Junior
Play. The subject is "Come Out Of
The Kitchen " by Augustus Thomas.
This play first appeared in Harper 's
us a story and was later dramatized
with Ruth Chatreton in the leading
role. Altho it had a large run in the
Strand Theatre in London , its cast
was not mode up of any more handsome , beautiful or talented actors
and actresses.
There is such a wealth of material
at the command of its directors that
two complete casts have been chosen
and the race for position is still on.
The cast will be definitely announced
within a week.
The Stage Director of the play is
Francis Garrity. George Matthews is
Business Manager , These two have
chosen committees and chairmen.
The Chairman of the Stage Set Committee is Theodore Davis. His committee consists of about twelve others. The Property Committee is headed by Jack Lertnos. The Costume
Committe e is led by Verna Medley.
Her task in clothes must be outstanding. Ocie William s is chairman of the
Prom pting Committee. She must
mend th e mistakes.
FRAS E R GAN GE
DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
Encored Repeatedly
Coach Jackson 's Cowboys are
tightening their girths and loosening their guns in their holsters for
the next brush with the enemy. Twice
have they defeated attacking, crews
from foreign lands. Twice have they
humbled arrogant asp irants for the
Normal school championship. Those
other boys shot not so straight as did
ours. Woe unto the next ones.
This week we tackle two teams
representing Pennsylvania State Normal Schools. We have never met
eithe" of these teams before. We do
not know their strength. But what
care we for the bears we see—Westchester already lies in her grave. Hot
stuff !
Friday night we play Lock Haven.
They have been at Bloamsburg before. They brought a football team
down. They took a football team back
but we kept the bacon . We will net
boastfully predict success but can
onl y say "Watch our dust !"
Indiana has tried a fall with us.
We have met them on the gridiron.
They won. They went home from
Bloomsburg with seven points. We
stayed here with none. We were at
least polite. "Giving what you don 't
want isn't charity " We have a charitable spirit.
But our hearts have hardened. We
want back what we gave. We can 't
have that but must take something
else . We are mad , we see red! Let
us all back our boys the limit when
they venture on the floor with an
unknown foe. Uncertainty is a terrible thing. Men of Bloomsburg Normal—the school is back of you.
As a matter of fact the members
of the team , under Miss Lee 's care,
have shaken off their infirmities. Garrity had a cold—he 's we'll again.
Austin had a cold—h e's rarin ' to go.
Jenkyns is improving his eye until
its almost seems he can 't miss. Sack
is letting his beard grow to look
hard. Man you don 't need that . Give
them both barrels. Walsh is sharpening his razor and priming his gun.
The razor is for Sack—the gun for
Indiana.
Last week the boys were at Wyoming where they lost. Students—
they need our backing. Everybody
out. Let' s give a Rah ! Tiger Normal !

SUMME R SESSION
COMMENCE MENT
In order to meet the needs of prospec tive teachers more fully it has
been decided to hold graduation exercises at the end of the summer
session. Many teachers in service attend school here each summer who
have completed almost all the credits required for a Normal Certificate. Unless these teachers are granted such certificates it is necessary
for them to teach another year on a
certificate of lower class. In consequence of this they receive smaller
salaries than they would be entitled
to with the certificat e the requirements of which they have really met.
The School cannot grant certi ficates
except upon graduation. For these
reasons the additional graduating exercises will be introduced

The Normal Schools of Pennsylvania are being changed into teachers colleges. In fact , the change has
been going on for nt least (We years.
The admission re quirements arc now
as high as at any reputable college.
The members of the teaching staff
compare very favorably with the faculties of colleges . In some respects
they surpass the latter , in professional contacts , in methods and skill of
teaching , in interest in the growth
of their students , rather than in the
completeness of the subje ct matter
taught. No young inexperienced instructors arc put in charge of classes. The teachers are all well prepared , professionally and scholastically.
The equipment of the normal
schools has also under gone a change.
At Bloomsbur g, for instance , there
are excellent laboratories; the library is commodious and well stocked
with useful and usable books ; the
classrooms are large , well lighted and
provided with excellent blackboards.
As far as the normal schools have
gone with their work , they have done
well. Colleges now give credit , year
for year , toward a degree in Education , for the two years of work that
has been given for at least five years.

DR WEST HERE TODAY
Dr. West will he here to give us
his third talk. He has already given
us two talks, the first on "The Age
We Live In " and t h e sec ond on "The
Life We Are Makin g ". His talk tod ay w ill b e on "For What We Exchange Life?" There will be a fourth
t alk , entitled "The Size Of Our
World". Judging from what Dr. West
has done so far , there is much in
store for us today. He thinks things
through and expresses them in a
forceful and clear manner.
IN COMPARISON
On the bulletin board outside of

other is a picture of the faculty of

ALP HA D E LTA ZETA HOLD
DINNER AND DANCE
Mr. Englehart spent Monday at
Harrisburg where he attended a conference of Kiwanis. He is secretary
of the local club.
The new local public library will
soon be ready for use. This is a remarkable community project. The
money which was necessary to erect
t h e building was all su b scr ib ed b y
the individuals of the community. In
addition to this money there are many thousands <?f dollars set aside as
an endowment fund . The local library is already well supplied with excellent books. With the fine facilities
that will come with the new building
Bloomsburg will have one of the finest libraries in the state of Pennsyl vania , at least for a town of from
ten to twenty-five thousand.
In the absence of Dr. . Riemer,
Dean Sutliff took charge of the auditorium exercises on last Friday.
It is evident from the progress of
the men playisg basketball that Mr.
Jackson knows how to teach the
game.
Mr. William Coffman , '25; who is
now teaching at Mifflinburg, called
on Dr. Riemer on Saturday morning.
He is enj oying his work very much.
He is teaching in the seventh and
eight h grades.
Many students took advantage of
the line weather on Saturday and
hiked over the hills and fields. They
returned full of enthusiasm over the
beautiful scenery about the town and
school.
¦ Judging from the exchange column
cf the Green Stone we can say that
the Maroon and Gold is being read
at West Chester.
Professor Rhodes gave a talk to
the teachers of Columbia County at
a meeting last Saturday morning. He
discussed the teaching of arithmetic.
Miss Nell Moore and Miss Hayden
spent Tuesday in the Wilkes-Barre
schools to make preparations for the
Conference of the Teachers of North
Eastern Penna to be held on March
11th and 12th.
While at Forty Fort Miss Moore
and Miss Hayden saw some of our
graduates teaching in its school system.
Mr. Dundore , teacher in the Sunbury High School, visited the School
on Monday . It was visiting day for
some of the Sunbury teachers.
Miss Rich , the new teacher for the
Intermediate Department , will reach
Bloomsburg on January 24th.
The third annual council meeting
of the Boy Scouts of America of Columbia and Montour Counties met

at 6:30 P. M. There was a dinner
at the new hotel after the meeting.
Tuesday night was a night out for
the majori ty of the students when
they went to see "The Fool" at the
Columbia Theater.
The custom of serving coffee on
Long Hall instead of at dinner will
be resumed , for the winter months,
next Sunday afternoon . A musical
program has been aiTanged for this
time.
Miss Marian Andrews and Miss
Emma Smith , former students, spent
the week end at their Alma Mater.

ECHOES OF RECITAL
—and NOW for that
Fraser Gange has an excellent
voice. He was, ho wever , not at his
best last Friday. His voice showed
signs of a cold. It was a source of
disappointment and surprise, besides,
that he was so poorly prepared for
the recital that he did not know the
words of his songs. There have been
more finished and artistic performances given here than that of Fraser
Gange, however interesting it was.

RECEPTION
JUNIOR
At the time most of the ch'urch es
in town were giving receptions to
the Normal students, the Episcopal
church was forced to postpone their
reception due to the absence of their
rector who was in Europe. However ,
on Monday night they fully made up
for this -loss when they entertained
the' Episcopal students ' at a* theater
party. Refreshments were served at
the rectory immediately after the
'
show.

Economy can be carried so far th at it results in a
downright loss.
Poor , cheap leather and bad workmanship cannot
prod uce good shoes , even though they look good and are
advertised as such.
A raincoat that leaked the first time you wore it
which you bought because it was cheap, was a costly
investment , as you knew when you looked at your damaged and stained dress.
Milk is always white to the eye, but much of it has
been skimmed and watered , so that your baby does not

Two Games This Week
Fraser Gange , baritone , made a
big hit Friday night when he gave
a concert . He substituted for John
Barclay on our regular Musical Artists' program. We, the students,
were glad for the substitution and
ask for him again.
A pleasing part of this program
was the note of informalit y introduced by the singer. He made friends
with every one. One number of his
p r ogram wa s t he f am iliar "Loch Lomond". He asked the audience to
j oin with him in the chorus. The response ol' the students must have
gladdened his heart. He exclaimed
that
was splendid.
¦ Heit was
obliged to respond four
time to cries of "encor e" from t he
assemblage . He graciously complied.
He sang "Mandelay" by Rudyard
Kipling in a way to make the poem
live in the hearts and minds of his
listeners. The' ex pr essi o n i n his voice ,
face and body was wonderful and
made each phrase vivid and real. He
was at his best when he sang "The
Two Grenadiers " by Schumann. He
had the swing and rhythm to perfection.

TEACHER TRAINING FACILITIES
Next semester there will be 55
teachers at the Normal School , 18 in
the town , and 8 in the rural districts
engaged in the training of prospective teachers. This will make a total
of 81 thus employed.
In the Training School of the Normal School there are now 318 pupils ;
the 18 local teachers have about 720
pupils in charge ; the rural teachers
have about 240 pupils under them.
This makes a grand total of 1278 pupils to whom tho students have access for student teaching purposes.
At no time are there more than 160
seniors engaged in teaching, which
makes on the average of 8 pupils to
a student. This makes an excellent
showing.

JUNIOR PLAY UNDER WAY
The Juniors have at last come to
a life of activity . They are beginning to live what Roosevelt called a
strenuous life.
Preparations and rehearsals are
under way for the annual Junior
Play. The subject is "Come Out Of
The Kitchen " by Augustus Thomas.
This play first appeared in Harper 's
us a story and was later dramatized
with Ruth Chatreton in the leading
role. Altho it had a large run in the
Strand Theatre in London , its cast
was not mode up of any more handsome , beautiful or talented actors
and actresses.
There is such a wealth of material
at the command of its directors that
two complete casts have been chosen
and the race for position is still on.
The cast will be definitely announced
within a week.
The Stage Director of the play is
Francis Garrity. George Matthews is
Business Manager , These two have
chosen committees and chairmen.
The Chairman of the Stage Set Committee is Theodore Davis. His committee consists of about twelve others. The Property Committee is headed by Jack Lertnos. The Costume
Committe e is led by Verna Medley.
Her task in clothes must be outstanding. Ocie William s is chairman of the
Prom pting Committee. She must
mend th e mistakes.
FRAS E R GAN GE
DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
Encored Repeatedly
Coach Jackson 's Cowboys are
tightening their girths and loosening their guns in their holsters for
the next brush with the enemy. Twice
have they defeated attacking, crews
from foreign lands. Twice have they
humbled arrogant asp irants for the
Normal school championship. Those
other boys shot not so straight as did
ours. Woe unto the next ones.
This week we tackle two teams
representing Pennsylvania State Normal Schools. We have never met
eithe" of these teams before. We do
not know their strength. But what
care we for the bears we see—Westchester already lies in her grave. Hot
stuff !
Friday night we play Lock Haven.
They have been at Bloamsburg before. They brought a football team
down. They took a football team back
but we kept the bacon . We will net
boastfully predict success but can
onl y say "Watch our dust !"
Indiana has tried a fall with us.
We have met them on the gridiron.
They won. They went home from
Bloomsburg with seven points. We
stayed here with none. We were at
least polite. "Giving what you don 't
want isn't charity " We have a charitable spirit.
But our hearts have hardened. We
want back what we gave. We can 't
have that but must take something
else . We are mad , we see red! Let
us all back our boys the limit when
they venture on the floor with an
unknown foe. Uncertainty is a terrible thing. Men of Bloomsburg Normal—the school is back of you.
As a matter of fact the members
of the team , under Miss Lee 's care,
have shaken off their infirmities. Garrity had a cold—he 's we'll again.
Austin had a cold—h e's rarin ' to go.
Jenkyns is improving his eye until
its almost seems he can 't miss. Sack
is letting his beard grow to look
hard. Man you don 't need that . Give
them both barrels. Walsh is sharpening his razor and priming his gun.
The razor is for Sack—the gun for
Indiana.
Last week the boys were at Wyoming where they lost. Students—
they need our backing. Everybody
out. Let' s give a Rah ! Tiger Normal !
for the team.
SUMME R SESSION
COMMENCE MENT
In order to meet the needs of prospec tive teachers more fully it has
been decided to hold graduation exercises at the end of the summer
session. Many teachers in service attend school here each summer who
have completed almost all the credits required for a Normal Certificate. Unless these teachers are granted such certificates it is necessary
for them to teach another year on a
certificate of lower class. In consequence of this they receive smaller
salaries than they would be entitled
to with the certificat e the requirements of which they have really met.
The School cannot grant certi ficates
except upon graduation. For these
reasons the additional graduating exercises will be introduced

The Normal Schools of Pennsylvania are being changed into teachers colleges. In fact , the change has
been going on for nt least (We years.
The admission re quirements arc now
as high as at any reputable college.
The members of the teaching staff
compare very favorably with the faculties of colleges . In some respects
they surpass the latter , in professional contacts , in methods and skill of
teaching , in interest in the growth
of their students , rather than in the
completeness of the subje ct matter
taught. No young inexperienced instructors arc put in charge of classes. The teachers are all well prepared , professionally and scholastically.
The equipment of the normal
schools has also under gone a change.
At Bloomsbur g, for instance , there
are excellent laboratories; the library is commodious and well stocked
with useful and usable books ; the
classrooms are large , well lighted and
provided with excellent blackboards.
As far as the normal schools have
gone with their work , they have done
well. Colleges now give credit , year
for year , toward a degree in Education , for the two years of work that
has been given for at least five years.

COMPLIMENTS OF
W00LW0RTHS
ECHOES OF RECITAL
—and NOW for that
Fraser Gange has an excellent
voice. He was, ho wever , not at his
best last Friday. His voice showed
signs of a cold. It was a source of
disappointment and surprise, besides,
that he was so poorly prepared for
the recital that he did not know the
words of his songs. There have been
more finished and artistic performances given here than that of Fraser
Gange, however interesting it was.

on Monday night they fully made up
for this -loss when they entertained
the' Episcopal students ' at a* theater
party. Refreshments were served at
the rectory immediately after the

Economy can be carried so far th at it results in a
downright loss.
Poor , cheap leather and bad workmanship cannot
prod uce good shoes , even though they look good and are
advertised as such.
A raincoat that leaked the first time you wore it
which you bought because it was cheap, was a costly
investment , as you knew when you looked at your damaged and stained dress.
Milk is always white to the eye, but much of it has
been skimmed and watered , so that your baby does not
thrive upon it.
Save money by getting of a reliable store a good
article at proper value rather than a paraded barg ain.
