Tomorrow Morning Coach Booth and
Squad Journey to Mansfield.

Tomorrow morning Coach Booth
and his basket ball squad , together
with student manager "Ex" Mathews,
will leave for Mansfield State Normal School , where they will meet the
cagers of that institution in their annual clash.
Not in the least daunted by their
46-25 defeat at the hands of Wyoming Seminary, the home team is confident of off-setting their previous
defeats by scoring a decisive victory
over the up-state aggregation.
Due to the fact that Mansfield has
met defeat by a wide margin at the
hands of St. Thomas College, CortIand Normal and Keystone, the
Bloomsburg representatives should
have little difficulty in registering a
victory.
In view of the game, which will be
followed by clashes with Dickinson
Seminary, West Chester and the
strong undefeated East Stroudsburg
State Normal quintet, Coaeh Booth
has put his charges through a week
of hard grilling and practice and announces that they are in tip-top condition for the contest.

RURAL GROUP INCREASES
Club Already Has Four New Members This Semester.
The members of the Rural Club
are proud of the increase in number
of their group . They have four new
members this semester and have
hopes of accomplishing more in the
field of rural education. They hope
that their group has increased qualitatively as well as quaintitatively.
They are proud that one of their
numbers is now in the fields substituting. This proves that the county superin tendents recognize the superiority of a teacher trained particularly for rural work.
They are still "in the dark" as to
where they will teach but are eager
for the time to come. They want to
give the knowledge gained a trial and
have the satisfaction of knowing that
they are putting their training to
practical use.

TEACHER'S ART GUILD
Miss Eshleman Joined Club at Their
Last Meeting,
A change has been ma'cle in the procedure of the Guild. Instead of
bringing our work to the Guild and
working , we bring our finished pieces
of art. These are placed in collections and each is separa tely to be discussed. We feel that these discussions are a help to all concerned.
Everything is taken in a friendly
spirit and consequently criticism runs
freely.
Tho first set of pictures to be discussed were some scenes depicting
winter. Some very good ones were
found in this interesting group. However , mistakes were seen in each and
avery one of these. We hope the people who made these mistakes will
proiit by them.
The pictures receiving most favorabiP mention are those of Miss Mary
Isaacs and Miss Phyllis Langford .
Miss Isaac 's picture contained a good
use of color and dark and light arrangements. Miss Langi'ord' s p icture
vvas commendable in that it had a
charming combination of values in
colors.
Linoleum blocks, knives and hlock
printing1 colors have arrived which
will be used in the next projec t. Others in the ciub are dealing with soap ,
sj ulpturing pieces which will be sent
as competing pieces in a nation;.'.! conteat , the winners of which will be
awarded with cash prizes.
A now member , Miss Eshleman ,
was welcomed by the members of the
ciub last meeting.
