At last the day has come . Tonight
30- 10
is the Juniors ' big night. Tonigh t, in
the auditorium , at 8:15, the annual
Junior Play will be given. The Juniors have been working for this and
at this for the last two months . The
cast has put in a days work every
hour. Now every thing is ready for
us to look at. If we shall jud ge the
play by the preparations, it will be
a wonder.
The play is "Come Out of the
Kitchen " by A. Thomas. It has had
long runs in New York and London
and has been regarded as one of the
great successes of the twentieth century . For this year 's production , " an
excellent cast has been carefully
chosen and coached to the limit. The
outcome should be a marvel . Th<;
phiy is well worth everyone 's time
ami money spent.
The scenery is gorgeous and complete . The whole business will be n' t
to live in. Even the doors open. All
aw j nts are set to be present .
Yesterday afternoon a matiney
was put on for the benefit of the
Junior
¦ High School pupils. Tne audier' •<_• roared with laughter and the
acting was so real that some were
really concerned for the actors. It
went over like our boys went over
the top—big. We can 't afford to miss
such a treat.
The cast is Molly Brace , Blake
Stokes, Robert Sutliff , Kathleen SomBradshaw , Gertrude
evs , Joseph
Baucher , Hugh Van Aernam . Mildred Rehm. Hope Schalles, William
Rushin and Walter Rohlands.
A small but enthusiastic crowd ,
Saturday night, saw a crippled Normal team take Dickinson Seminar y
into camp. It was a surprise to many
but to many Bloomsburg rooters it
was expected. It was a pretty good
game from start to finish. Dickinson
piled up a five point lead as an opener and roused our boys. They came
from behind and at half time the
score was 17-7, in favor of Bloomsburg . The handful of rooters showed
their pleasure by a great noise.
In the second half our team came
back strong and allowed Dickinson
only three points to our thirteen
points. It was good stuff . Swinehart
was responsible for the good guarding. He was as watchful as a police
dog and broke up many Dickinson
plays. He made six foul throws out
of six attempts. Looks pretty nearly
perfect .
This was Garrity 's first game at
guard. He filled Sack's shoes as Sack
was unable to wear them. He was a
good guard and strong on the scoring. Jenkins ' steady head led the men
to victory . Directing the others and
playing a great game himself he amassed five points. This was the first
game that Nickie Vanbuskirk started
and he looked good . His passing and
shooting was at par that night.
At center both Austin and McGrath played well. Austin did some
good guarding in keeping the speedy
Dickinson center to a very few
points. Austin himself gathered in a
few pretty field goals. Walsh did his DRAMATIC CLUB ENTERTAINED

At the first mee ting of the Bloomsburg Normal School Debating Club ,
William Swinehar t, the king of them
all , was elected president. The club
was organized in answer to a call
for some place to decide unsolved
questions to the satisfaction of those
p resent.
The Club has some twenty members and was quickly organized. Miss
Myrtle Trembly, a middler of high
standing , was elected secretary. The
club meets every Thursday at 1-.20
in the auditorium.
At the first meeting of the club
the following question was taken
up in an open forum debate: Resolved: That a four year Normal
School course be required of school
teachers of Pennsylvania. There are
many arguments , pro and con , on
this question and most of them were
brou ght to light . Things were pretty
hot for awhile.

HEADS OF COLLEGES
AT WASHINGTON
The American Association of Teachers Colleges met in Washington
from Friday noon to Saturday evening of last week. A large proportion
of its one hundred fif ty-two members was present. Conferences were
held on probleems of interest to all
teachers colleges. The chi ef subject
of discussion was, however , the standardization of the teaching force ,
the curricula and the teaching - load
of such an institution . In many respects the standards set at this meeting-, are like those now observed by
the normal schools of Pennsylvania.
The teachers of our School would
qualify by Sep tember 1926. Our curricula are being revised with such
st a ndards in mind . The teaching load
of our teachers has consisted of 16
to 20 teaching periods per week for
several years. It will, t her efore , be
an easy matter for our School to be
classed as a Class A teachers colleg e as soon as another year is added
to our course. And that will likely
be done in a year or two .

Bit Of History
In the Williamsport Sun of March
31, 1898 , app eared the following re-
port about our School :
"The Bloomsburg State Normal
opened yesterday, and its opening
has brought together a hundred new
pupils. This, together with the five
hundred old pupils, are making things
quite livel y on the hill. This enrollment is the largest the school has
.ever enj oyed and is certainly complimentary for the school officials. Last
evening the Y . M . C. A. and the Y.
W. C. A. tendered an elaborate reception to the new pupils and they
certainly upheld the school's reputation f or Christianity. The reception
savored very highly of 1 Cuba and her
freedom. On entering the spacious
gymnasium , in whicrfi the reception
was tendered , the students were
greeted with elaborate decorations in
the form of "United States and Cuban
colors. The theme <3r rather obje ct
of the evening- was to impress on the
student's Cuba 's needs. A series of
three tableaux were given: The firs t
represented Weyler 's tyranny , the second Cuba's appeal to the United
States, and the third , our intervening in that war-stricken country. This
was followed by a drill by members
of the military company of the Normal , which was executed with skill
and precision . A patriotic drill by
the home defend ers, the girls, was
delightful and closed a most pleasant
and profitable evening. "
It is worthy of note that a large
part of the enrollment mentioned above consisted of pupils from the
ninth grade up. This School was not
put on a college basis until 1921.
Even then it continued its high school
course for about three or four years
longer. However, patriotic fervor
was high there too . Much was done
by everyon e for. the delivered Cubans.

Economy can be carried so far that it results in a
downright loss.
Poor , cheap leather and bad workmanship cannot
produce 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 thai 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 bargain.

Bloomsburg Wins
At last the day has come . Tonight
30- 10
is the Juniors ' big night. Tonigh t, in
the auditorium , at 8:15, the annual
Junior Play will be given. The Juniors have been working for this and
at this for the last two months . The
cast has put in a days work every
hour. Now every thing is ready for
us to look at. If we shall jud ge the
play by the preparations, it will be
a wonder.
The play is "Come Out of the
Kitchen " by A. Thomas. It has had
long runs in New York and London
and has been regarded as one of the
great successes of the twentieth century . For this year 's production , " an
excellent cast has been carefully
chosen and coached to the limit. The
outcome should be a marvel . Th<;
phiy is well worth everyone 's time
ami money spent.
The scenery is gorgeous and complete . The whole business will be n' t
to live in. Even the doors open. All
aw j nts are set to be present .
Yesterday afternoon a matiney
was put on for the benefit of the
Junior
¦ High School pupils. Tne audier' •<_• roared with laughter and the
acting was so real that some were
really concerned for the actors. It
went over like our boys went over
the top—big. We can 't afford to miss
such a treat.
The cast is Molly Brace , Blake
Stokes, Robert Sutliff , Kathleen SomBradshaw , Gertrude
evs , Joseph
Baucher , Hugh Van Aernam . Mildred Rehm. Hope Schalles, William
Rushin and Walter Rohlands.
A small but enthusiastic crowd ,
Saturday night, saw a crippled Normal team take Dickinson Seminar y
into camp. It was a surprise to many
but to many Bloomsburg rooters it
was expected. It was a pretty good
game from start to finish. Dickinson
piled up a five point lead as an opener and roused our boys. They came
from behind and at half time the
score was 17-7, in favor of Bloomsburg . The handful of rooters showed
their pleasure by a great noise.
In the second half our team came
back strong and allowed Dickinson
only three points to our thirteen
points. It was good stuff . Swinehart
was responsible for the good guarding. He was as watchful as a police
dog and broke up many Dickinson
plays. He made six foul throws out
of six attempts. Looks pretty nearly
perfect .
This was Garrity 's first game at
guard. He filled Sack's shoes as Sack
was unable to wear them. He was a
good guard and strong on the scoring. Jenkins ' steady head led the men
to victory . Directing the others and
playing a great game himself he amassed five points. This was the first
game that Nickie Vanbuskirk started
and he looked good . His passing and
shooting was at par that night.
At center both Austin and McGrath played well. Austin did some
good guarding in keeping the speedy
Dickinson center to a very few
points. Austin himself gathered in a
few pretty field goals. Walsh did his DRAMATIC CLUB ENTERTAINED

At the first mee ting of the Bloomsburg Normal School Debating Club ,
William Swinehar t, the king of them
all , was elected president. The club
was organized in answer to a call
for some place to decide unsolved
questions to the satisfaction of those
p resent.
The Club has some twenty members and was quickly organized. Miss
Myrtle Trembly, a middler of high
standing , was elected secretary. The
club meets every Thursday at 1-.20
in the auditorium.
At the first meeting of the club
the following question was taken
up in an open forum debate: Resolved: That a four year Normal
School course be required of school
teachers of Pennsylvania. There are
many arguments , pro and con , on
this question and most of them were
brou ght to light . Things were pretty
hot for awhile.

AT WASHINGTON
The American Association of Teachers Colleges met in Washington
from Friday noon to Saturday evening of last week. A large proportion
of its one hundred fif ty-two members was present. Conferences were
held on probleems of interest to all
teachers colleges. The chi ef subject
of discussion was, however , the standardization of the teaching force ,
the curricula and the teaching - load
of such an institution . In many respects the standards set at this meeting-, are like those now observed by
the normal schools of Pennsylvania.
The teachers of our School would
qualify by Sep tember 1926. Our curricula are being revised with such
st a ndards in mind . The teaching load
of our teachers has consisted of 16
to 20 teaching periods per week for
several years. It will, t her efore , be
an easy matter for our School to be
classed as a Class A teachers colleg e as soon as another year is added
to our course. And that will likely
be done in a year or two .

W. C. A. tendered an elaborate reception to the new pupils and they
certainly upheld the school's reputation f or Christianity. The reception
savored very highly of 1 Cuba and her
freedom. On entering the spacious
gymnasium , in whicrfi the reception
was tendered , the students were
greeted with elaborate decorations in
the form of "United States and Cuban
colors. The theme <3r rather obje ct
of the evening- was to impress on the
student's Cuba 's needs. A series of
three tableaux were given: The firs t
represented Weyler 's tyranny , the second Cuba's appeal to the United
States, and the third , our intervening in that war-stricken country. This
was followed by a drill by members
of the military company of the Normal , which was executed with skill
and precision . A patriotic drill by
the home defend ers, the girls, was
delightful and closed a most pleasant
and profitable evening. "
It is worthy of note that a large
part of the enrollment mentioned above consisted of pupils from the
ninth grade up. This School was not
put on a college basis until 1921.
Even then it continued its high school
course for about three or four years
longer. However, patriotic fervor
was high there too . Much was done
by everyon e for. the delivered Cubans.

On Thursday, hidd en talent was
discovered in the Junior class when
a boys ' chorus appeared on the chapel program. This was a surprise and
delight for everyone. Because the

Economy can be carried so far that it results in a
downright loss.
Poor , cheap leather and bad workmanship cannot
produce 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 thai 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 bargain.
