of Free Education.
One of the most outstanding fearos of the progress of education
aring the last generation lies in the
[owth of the high school. Twentymo years ago it was necessary for
[thers and mothers to send their
ilclren away from home to secure
p ining beyond the eighth grade. Tol y the State promises to every boy
id girl of th€ eighth grade within
; confines an additional four years
education free of charge. The
ate is so determined that no child
all be handicapped because of acci>nt of birth that a law has been
issed which compels a school district
pay the tuition at some other
hool of any pupil desirous of a high
liool education in case that partiilar dis trict does not have a high
hool of its own.
A generation ago it was the chosen
\v who were afforded such educaonal opport unities. The chances
; an education beyond the eleentary grades were largely dependlt upon whether or not the parents
ore financially able to allow their
lildren to enjoy them. This is no
nger true today, when every pro¦essive town affords its children as

his is no longer the case today . Only
small percentage of the boys and
iris in our high schools go on to colge. However the needs of those
hose education stops with the high

school. This is often very diffiit , above all in case the young man

hat our public night schools cannot

On Thursday, November 4, our
Chapel atmosphere was tinged with
excitement. Attired in his native regalia "Strongwolf" made a picturesque scene. A typical Red Man,
adorned with his feathery head-piece
stepping out of an historical picture
plate as the days in the Wild West.
He was introduced by Mr. Bruce
Barton, who to honor his presence,
asked the entire school to j oin in the
singing of an old song entitled
"There 's a Long, Long Trail a-Winding." As to its appropriateness
Strongwolf remarked that that was
not a typical Indian song. Most of
us would be shocked to hear a genuine war-whoop which is their interpretation of good Indian music. (It
is sometimes thought that the Indian
is devoid of all humor). You could
not listen to Strongwolf and honestl y
conclude that such is tht case. An
example, two Indians were talking
and one said t hat he could ride a
horse and the other be t that he could
not. To clinch the argument a horse
was brought forth. The challenger
attempted to seat himself on the
horse to prove his statement. However , he took the position of facing
the tail instead of the head. The other one said that his seating was proof
enough that he could not ride a horse
because any person would know that
facing the tail was rather awkward.
The other made this wise retort,
"Well , how do you know which way
I'm going?" He stated that all he
was and hopes to be was due to the
kind American pale-faces. He conclud ed by reciting in his native
tongue and translating in the English language a prayer to the Great
Spirit. We all enjoy ed Strongwolf's
speech and visit and extend him our
best wishes for a revisitation.

EDUCATION WEEK PROGRAMS
On Monday several groups of the
4th , 5th and Gth grades gave a dramatization of several different books.
Those who attended Chapels could
easily see that when they grow up
they will be ready for Miss Johnston.
Hi * * *

On Tuesday Professor Rhodes had
charge of tho Chapel exercises. Miss
Harriet Moore led the singing of
patriotic songs while two members of
the sixth grado gave a one-minute
speech on "Patriotism. "

On Sunday afternoon , November 7,
between 3:00 and 4:00 P. M., the Y.
W. C. A. held an af ternoon tea in the
gymnasium. The purpose of the tea
was to become acquainted with the
new members that have been taken
into the "Y. " this Fall. The gym
was a cozy and home-like looking as
a gymnasium possibly can be. The
wicker furniture, the piano and several card tables were arranged to
form a friendly circle at the farthest
end of the room. Beautiful bouquets
of large yellow chrysanthemums and
lavender and yellow pom-poms added to the cheery, home-like nspeet.
The tea and dainty little calces
were enj oyed doubly because of the
delightful program that accompanied
them. It was as follows:
Piano Solo
Miriam Terweillegr
Reading, "If For Girls"
Margaret Gethmg
Margaret Hartman
Vocal Solo
And throughout the entire afternoon Florence Williams delightfully
entertained at the piano.
Kitty Gemmell and Eleanor Kesge
were charming as the hostesses who
presided over the teapots. Tea was
served to about sixty guests, including Miss Conway, M iss Edmunds and
Miss Mason. All vowed that they had
spen t a very enjoyable afternoon ,
and seemed deligh ted to hear that the
"Y. " intends to repeat the event
many times during the year.
*+# *

At our weekly Y. W. C. A. meeting
on Wednesday evening, November 3,
we had a very interesting program.
As the first number Marion Pickett
played for us that beautiful wellknown selection , "Mighty 'Lak a
Rose. " A beautiful piece of music—
beautifully played !
Then Mr. Sutliff spoke to us about
"Habit and What it Means to Us."
It would be impossible to ever try
to reproduce his speech, but here are
a few quotations from it:
"Habits grow upon ourselves so
that they control our lives. "
"From the abundance of the heart
the mouth speaks. "
"My better self stands above my
self supreme. "
"God will give us direction if we
t
seek him. "
These are only a very few of them ,
but .think them over! Those who were
lucky enough to hear the entire
speech have a lot more to think over.

Struggle Ends 14-10, in Favor of
Seminary. Was a Hard
Fought Game.
In what proved to be one of the
mightiest of grid battles Bloomsburg
went down to defeat for the second
t im e this season at the hands of t he
sturdy Dickinson Seminary boys at
Williamsport by the score of 14 to 10
before a crowd of about 5000.
Normal fought hard and skillfully
stopped the famed "Whitey " McKaye in his tracks in the first half.
However, he was not stopped long
•enough , because in the second half
he slipped across our goal line for a
score.
The game was replete with thrills.
Perhaps the most thrilling feature of
the game was the spectacular ninetyfive yard run by "Lin " Sorber, one
of our flashy half-backs, af ter he had
recovered a fumble dropped by Pencheff of Dickinson. "Lin " seems t o
have taken a liking to this feat as
this is the second time he has accomplished the feat in two weeks.
Normal scored twice in the first
half. The thrilling dash by Sorber
accounted for the first six points and
two pretty kicks by Captain Swinehart—one for.the extra point and the
other a field goal from the thirty yard
line—added the other four points
which was our final score of the day.
Kraynack , who substituted for Zimmerman in the first quarter , was one
of the features of the game. He
showed great speed and ability in
breaking away for many gains.
Dickinson started off with a bang
in the first quarter. A steady march
down the field brought the first score.
Then to offset this Sorber brought
our rooters to their feet and converted them into a howling mob by his
ninety-five yard run for a touchdown.
Between halves a snake dance by
the students gave the fans many
laughs by the performers spending
most of their time on the ground. It
was so constructed as to tip if swung
sideward suddenly.
The last half was hard fought with
Normal taking the offensive. However, they were unable to score and
Dickinson retained a safe margin of
victory. Normal deserves a great
deal of credit for 'their spirited playing, and although beaten , it was not
a disgraceful defeat. Good , McKaye
and Nye featured .for Dickinson.

"Labels," by Hamilton Gibbs, deals
with the effect of the Worl d War upon a soldier , a nurse , a "conscien t ious

English public opinion. The author
has his characters say some surprising things about war, society, and
life.
I did not like the book especially.
Compared with "Soundings " I consider it rather slow. The love element was very enj oyable, probably
owing1 some of its sparkle to the fact
that it is given in small portions.
To one who never experienced war
the book contains revelations. Some
of the thoughts are so new as to even
stir involuntary doubt. Although

WINTER MAGIC

"TH E MAN NOBODY KNOWS"

I wakened sad this morning, excepting full to see
Bleak earth all sad and dreary, and
skeleton arm 'd tree.
But lof fairyland had come and floating through the air
Had changed my world, while I
soundly slept , to a dream beyond
compare.

(By Bruce Barton).
The introduction Bruce Barton
wrote entitled "How it came to be
written " states clearly why he wrote
abou t Jesus in that certain manner.
It strikes a keynote to the story.
The beginning of the story was a
series of shocks, as if a dash of cold
water had been thrown on you to
make you sit up and listen. The first
shock came in seeing the manner of
words used in writing the book. It
was not written in lang descriptive
phrases and elaborate details. The
story was written in a plain straight
forward manner. Each sentence stood
for a thought and each word seemed
as if it were absolutely necessary
else it would not have been placed
there. I suppose Bruce Barton 's
newspaper work was responsible for
tms manner 01 expression.
The second shock was his manner
of dealing with Jesus. Before I had
gone very far I had caught myself
saying "Oh ! he must not do that.
Why he 's treating Jesus as if He were
j ust a man." He wrote of Jesus'
work and of His contacts with other
people ju st as he would write about
any other person. Until recently this
manner of writing about Jesus has
been taboed. As I read farther again
I caught myself saying "Why he 's
right. I never thought of that side
of the problem before. "
Ano t her shock was t he manner in
which he tr a nsla t ed t he conversa t io n
similiar to our own. It was an aid
to clarifying his poin t but I did not
like it very much. I think that the
manner of speech peculiar to that age
is so typical that something is lost
when it is changed to the modern
manner of speaking.
The titles of his chapters are worth
noting.
They all arouse the interest and
qu estions immediately pop up. You
can 't help wondering why Bruce Barton would head a chapter "His Advertisements" in a book dealing with
Jesus. The last chapter "The Master " is a strong chapter. There was
an undercurrent to the thoughts expressed. You couldn 't help but feel
that the author himself was carried
on by his respect and admiration for
Christ. The chapter contains pathos,
tragedy and triumph combined.
Bruce Barton 's book is worth reading. It brings to light the many sided character of Jesus ' life. It analyses events and often compares
them with incidents which have takenen place at a later age. The book
does not declare that you must see
Jesus in the same light as the author
does but it sots forth the author 's
idea for all to see. The book arouses
the interest and gives a clearer understanding of the life of Jesus.

A scintillating whiteness was over
everything ;
sea of diamonds, that

this region, especially in the cities,
who think they would like to have the
Volstead Act repealed. Most of
them belong to that class of people
who seem to have a liking for opposing the law. Some of them are like
adolescent school boys, they think it
"smart" to oppose and disobey the
law. Some think their rights are being interferred with by the enforcement of the law. Others are more or
less mentally weak or unbalanced and
fail t o think for them selves bu t let
themselves be influenced by others.
All these classes vote with the "wets. "
In Pennsylvania v are, the avowedly wet candidate , was elected by a
small maj ority, while the Republican
candidate for Governor , Fisher, won
his office by an unparalleled maj ority. Vare ought theoretically to have

SUGGESTIONS FOR
GUIDANCE OF STUDENTS
Dean H. E. Havvkes Makes Annual
Repor t to Columbia Universit y.
Dean H. E. Hawkes, of Columbia
University, makes the following contribution to the guiding of students
in his annual report to the President
of that institution :
"Most problems are easily solved
if one has clearly in mind all of the
facts which bear on them. Most of
the difficulties that face an adviser
of students arise from his not having
the facts on which the situation depends. All that any test or life history can furnish is a collection of
naked facts. The adviser can prepare tests, and gather information
significant for the making of decisions, but this-material must be
evaluated by each individual student
for himself. No one can do more
than make a guess at this evaluation
Consequently the
for another.
function of the adviser of students
is not at all that of settling their
question for them. Those who try
to settle other people 's personal
problems for them are perhaps the
greatest nuisances in modern society.
The adviser's business is to find out
in a more orderly manner than the
immature young man is able to do ,
the facts and elements on which the
solution* of his question depends. He
can relate to the student the experience of others. But the adviser has
no business to tell a young man that
he should be a lawyer , or an engineer, for the simple reason that very
likely the young man does not want
to be a lawyer or an engineer."

STODDARD'S "RISING '
MISS JOSEPHINE DORMITORY
TIDE OF COLOR" Endeavors to Take to Task the

Will There be a Racial War? What
About Racial Domination ?

Stop for a minute and look around
you. Who is ordering the world's affairs? Who makes the laws, the customs? Who holds imperial sway over
this earth ? It is the white man who
rules 47 ,000 ,000 of the 53,000 ,000
square miles constituting the land
area of the world. Today practically
the whole world is dominated by
whites. This leads us to pat ourselves on the shoulder and say "H' m!
I guess I am fairly important. " But
there 's another side to the question.
What about racial domination? Instead of a world 9-10 white we see
one 4-10, the rest being inhabited by
yellows, browns, blacks and reds.
White people dominate 22 ,000 ,000
square miles and colored people 31,000 ,000. Now let us look at population. Today there arc about 1,700 ,^
Of
000 ,000 human beings alive.
these 550,000 ,000 are white and 1,150 ,000 ,000 are colored. Thus the
whites are outnumbered two to one.
Another significant fact is that 4-5
of the entire white race is concentrated on 1-5 of the white world's territorial area. The remaining fifth is
scattered over the world protecting
4-5 of the white world' s heritage
against eleven times its number.
Now we aren 't quite so self-satisfied ,
are we? But there are even more
facts staring us in the face. The
present make-up of the world is two
colored people to every white person.
This is shif ting in' favor of color for
the colored races increase much faster than the white. Whites tend to
double in 80 years, yells and browns
in 60 , blacks in 40 years. Thus the
whites are the slowest breeders. The
only checks on colored population
are famine , disease and warfare and
these the whi te man is very busy removing, so tha t there is an accelerated increase of population wherever
the white man holds political sway.
Of course , the result of this means
an ou tward thrust of surplus colored
men. Where can these peopl e go:
To the empty regions under white,
control. But the whites prohibit this.
For instance , take "hely-white" Australia. Thus the colored world is being welded together for the process
of self-prese rvation into a common
solidari ty of feeling. They have never w elcomed whi t e predo m i n an c e
hithortofore but have accepted it as
inevitable. Now their attitude is
changing. No longer is the white
man n god. No longer does the colored man fear and respect white civilization. The Great War shattered
white solidarity and the colored man
rejoiced in his heart and was exceedingly glnd ! The white race had forgotten ties of culture and blood and
battled into denth. The colored world
of today views the result with dreams
in their heart. How long will it be?
Thus wo have before vis the -world's
present status in regard to the race
problem. What tho result will be no
one knows. It remains for us to
study and think. ,
—Mary Isaacs.

Gentlemen of North Hall.

Dear Josephine—
While perusing the columns of my
beloved Maroon and Gold I stumbled
upon your epistolary effort in which
to take to task the gentlemen of
North Hall for their laxity in the
terpsichorean (if in doubt about this
word use the Encyclopedia Brittanica) activities.
Let me tell you something, Josephine. On several occasions upon
asking young ladies to accompany me
in my erratic meanderings over the
floor , I was favored with the unfavorable reply , "I am not dawncing this
evening." Probably this was a diplomatic way of refusing or in the parlance of the street, giving the cold
shoulder, or the unwillingness of the
favored damsel of acknowledging her
inability to cope with the complexities of the modern dance.
Anyway the floor ain't waxed.
Yours with admiration ,
"Willie " N. Hall.

It seems that many are asking this

rather vigorous positive answers.
They view the returns of the election

this denoted that Coolidge was losing

It appears that mid-term elections
are many times discouraging. So
much importance is placed in the defeat of any official of the party in
power. It is quite true that Republicans were defeated but that does
not mean that the administration is

DON'T LOSE YOUR SPIRIT
Don 't Forget to Come Out to Cheer
For tho Next Game.
Last Saturday Bloom lost a tough
game to Dickinson Seminary, but
don 't let that worry you. We had a
lot of hard luck in that game. The
boys fought their hardest and they
should have gotten a tie, but the Goddess Fortune didn 't smile our way.

In other sections the defeat of the
Republican candidates was due to
local causes and not connected with
Coolidge, The Democratic sweep in
New York is considered dangerous
but tho test would come when the
popular man of the State was taken
from his section and put before the
nation for approval.
Another cause of tho defeat of the
Republican candidates was the number of independents running for office. In several cases these independents professed that they stood more
for the admanistration than the
recognized Republican candidates.
This very naturally caused a split in
the votes.

Dear Josephine—
While perusing the columns of my
beloved Maroon and Gold I stumbled
upon your epistolary effort in which
to take to task the gentlemen of
North Hall for their laxity in the
terpsichorean (if in doubt about this
word use the Encyclopedia Brittanica) activities.
Let me tell you something, Josephine. On several occasions upon
asking young .ladies to accompany me
in my erratic meanderings over the
floor , I was favored with the unfavorable reply, "I am not dawncing this
evening. " Probably this was a diplomatic way of refusing or in the parlance of the street, giving the cold
shoulder , or the unwillingness of the
favored damsel of acknowledging her
inability to cope with the complexities of the modern dance.
Anyway the floor ain 't waxed.
Yours with admiration ,

"Does the election show that Cool-

idge 's popularity is declinig?

It seems that many are asking this
question and that some are giving
rather vigorous positive answers.
They view the returns of the election
with horror because some Republicans lost out. I would not say that
this denoted that Coolidge was losing
his hold.
It appears that mid-term elections
are many times discouraging. So
much importance is placed in the defeat of any official of the party in
power. It is quite true that Republicans were defeated but that does
not mean that the administration is
doomed.
It happened that where the candidates appealed to fhe people to support Coolidge that the response wa s
favorable. Some Republican candidates would not have been elected if
it wouldn 't have been for the high
standing of the Coolidge administration. I think that the speeches of
Vare showed this. When Vare got
in sections where his positions were
disliked and he hid behind the cry of
"keep the Coolidge Administration
in power and send Republicans to
Congress. "
I suppose at this time some would
point to the defeat of Coolidge 's personal friend , Bu t ler , and cry, "Explain that ! From what I have read
about Butler 's defeat it does not look
like a blow against Coolidge but
against Butler and his views. Butler was pitted against a man who possessed a magnetic personality and the
abili ty to sway the people. This man,
Ex-Senator Walsh, adop ted a platform that included a wet program.'
On the other hand Bu t ler refused t o
l'ecognize the wet-dry issues and the
result was the loss of the election.
The defea t of Pepper in the Primary
was partly attributed to the vague
action he took on the prohibition
question so Butler is not the first to
taste defeat because of vague action
concerning prohibition.
In other sections the defeat of the
Republican candidates was due to
local causes and not connected with
Coolidge, The Democratic sweep in
New York is considered dangerous
but the test would come when the.
popul ar man of the State was taken
from his section and put before the
nation for approval .
Another cause of the defeat of the
Republican candidates was tho number of independents running for office. In several cases these independents professed that they stood more
for tho admanistration than the
recognized Republican candidates.
This very naturally caused a split in
the votes.

Other States wont Democratic because 'they naturally incline to Democratic policies. Oklahoma and Kentucky wero both carried to tho Republican side by tho sharp turn
