The B. S. T. C. Orchestra will give
their annual concert Tuesday night,
May 3, in the auditorium at 8:15.
It would be rather diffieult to say
j ust how the school would survive
without the aid of an orchestra. It
has become a part of the school life—
at plays, commencement and many
other social activities the orchestra
has played an important role.
Juniors of last year !—Do you remember the Junior play? The best
of the year—but who helped you the
night of the final production? "The
Orchestra !"
Juniors of this year! Do you remember who sat in the pit and helped by playing before and between the
scenes?
Middlers ! Who stood by and helped make your play a success?
Dramatic Club ! Whose aid are you
seeking for your club play on Friday
night?
At Commencement time who will
help t o furnish m usi c for th e va r ious
fu nctions.'
The college orchestra consists of
twenty-eight members. After all what
is an orchestra and how far will it
progress without a director? Miss
Harriet M. Moore, who is director of
the orchestra, has been directing the
Normal orchestra for several years.
Each year it has been increasing in
number as well as in ability.
The program to be given Tuesday
nigh t of Music Week will be composed of parts of operas and concert
music.
Walter P. Johns, baritone, of
Wilkes-Bai*re, will give two groups of
songs. Mr. Johns is known throughout Wyoming Valley for excellent
programs. He is offering groups of
songs that will be especially interesting to the studen t body. Mr. Johns
has, on several occasions, sung at the
Consistory in town.
Tickets for the concert may be had
from any member of the orchestra.
It will be worth your while to come.
Get Your Tickets For the "Swan."

NOTIC E

In the face of a cold and bitin g
wind that made the day even too cold
for f ootball our boys played an excellent . game of baseball Saturday
afternoon against Keystone Academy
and we took a sizzling pitcher 's battle, 2-1.
Bernard Roan hurled ex cellen t ball
and held Keystone's well balanced aggregation to seven hits and a lon g
score. He fanned 14 batters. Anthany, the Factoryville moundsmanalso hurled a pretty game. Nine hits
were made on his offerings and they
were well scattered except for the
fourth inning when four clean blows
were bunched for the two winning
runs. The wind swept the diamond
and was so cold that players used
football blankets to keep warm while
sitting on the bench. Fans were protected with coats and blanke t s bu t
soon they were chilled and many were
forced to leave the field.
Yarashefski started tho scoring
when he placed a single down the
third base line in the fourth inning.
He raced to second on a passed ball.
McGrath was thrown out by Cooke.
Rushin beat out a pretty tap along
the first base line. Garrity doubled
and Slusser came through with a single.
Keystone escaped a shut out by
scoring in the sixth. With one out
Halicki doubled. Schuler flied out to
Wadas, Martin got hold of a fast one
and thumped it to left field for three
bases. Metzgat passed up a rosy opportunity to knot the score "when he
lifted a fly to Rushin.
Bloomsburg had a number of chances to score but were unable to come
through . At times in the early innings they were unable to hit in the
pinches. At other times sluggish
work on the bases, coupled with close
vigilance on the part of the Keystone
team blotted out their chances. Keystone had a fighting bnll club that was
continuousl y making trouble for our
boys. They had men on the run ways
in every inning but two, only to find
Roan invincible when hits meant
scores.
In spite of the cold, the fielding was
almost flawless. Bobby Wilson , flashy
Normal shot stop, had an error in the
ninth but was easily excusable. The
miscue came with one out in the
ninth. The next batter forced the
runner nt second and Powell was No.

M
' Death , who wi th his shinle ss, bony

•j eting second, and smiling as only
m can smile, t ouches some cer tain
fRrassed and worn soul weighed down
¦ith mighty turbulations.
tl Not always however, does he choose
iftose who are wretched , bu t with
Aiet stealth he often fawns upon
¦outh , a budding rose, and blasts it
Wer it ever learns to bloom or sip the
Bagic draught of love. Like a parafite he gloaits greedily over these con¦uests for he believes that this breath

And fr ee.
¦
His favorite prey is the genius
Hrork torn, t ired , who lives among his
¦reams. He, of all others, falls a bit
Riore unsuspecting by into the grasp
Bf the spectre, who eagerly tears and
Bnaws heart, soul and hope.
¦
From this group let us pick one, a
Blaster violinist, who in the height of
¦ame, is standing on a stage and lookIng down into a sea of eager faces.
He listens to the storm of thunderous
ipplause, applause for the revelation
if his soul in a great symphony. His
>yes are aflame for he thinks not of
hese things about him, bu t only of
his music—his music.
But, a change comes over all. The
i tage is now a cliff , high , high ab ove
black sea, a sea which breaks with
peals upon the crags behindering
[
leath. The mass of eager faces has
changed to foam—white dots of foam
cast higher and higher by the waves.
The master stands alone amidst the
waves.
Then rain. Now and then a fleck
of white dashes into his face. The
darkness grows deeper. Between an
occasional rift in the rolling clouds,
glows a streak of red. Not lightning,
but the fires of a hidden sun. The
iro ny of itl
The thundering becomes louder.
But there is a man whom tragedy nas
touched. Does he bow or cower before it? No! He stands witli fiercely
beating heart, with face uplifted toward the sky, his instrument clasped
Itightly against his breast.
The first flash of lightning comes,
and another. Praise from on high for
his work. Into his eyes comes a light ,
not one of exaltation or triumph but
rather that of despair, mingled with
supreme supplication.
\
A great shadow moves toward him
nnd stands by his side. Two glaring
eyes seem to sear his very soul, and
ft clamming hand seeks "his brow.
A scream rents the air—the shadow
dissolves. Our genius whirls and
shrinks away from where the ghost
has stood. Then a laugh—a hard
mirthless laugh , which pierces the air
lilco the shriek of the siren. In desperation the man raises his violin,

As the bow goes softly o 'er the
strings, there comes a calm. The
clouds part and the warm glow of the
sun shines through. The music grows
wilder. The waters grow calm and
sparkle. The cliff has once more become a stage. Eager faces look up
from below. The* rolling moan of applause comes to the artist again.
Now the violin speaks in sterner
tones—despair, anguish, remorse and
at the last, one mighty appeal. The
sun dies away, the faces turn t o
foam , thunder there is but no applause. A step nearer the brink.
Wind and rain shrinking in fury !
The cliff is empty. From somewhere below, mids t the rocks tha t
peer forth from ou t of the sea, conies
a far away haunting ery. Is it triumph
or despair?
Black clouds grow blacker, fl ecks
of foam dash upon the cliff , and
thunder crashes.
Between an occosianal rift in the rolling clouds,
glows a streak of red. Not lightning,
but the fires of a hidden sun. Tragedy grins once more and with a long
sweeping gesture, bows in mock solemnity to the crags of a stormy sea.

UNEMPLOYME NT
Society is made up of groups of
mutually independent producers aU
engaged in putting out their own special products; this means that wealth
consists, not of goods and services,
which is self-mnintaining; a group of
men , new tools, and new goods is continually joi ning the large stream of
goods and services and thus established themselves economically. It is not
possible for industry to develop at
•such a rate as to absorb all the people
in the younger generation ; therefore ,
some must be turned down. Another
cause of unemployment is the ever
present problem of over-production ,
which cannot be avoided easily, because firm s always keep ahead of orders in big business , and when the
demand for certain goods fulls off because of economic conditions , the
firm is left with too largo a supply of
goods on hand and an immediate result is that laborers arc laid idle.
Great Britain has always been
troubled with the unemployment problem , even though she has great iron
and steel plants , coal mines and huge
textile mills; honco , there is often
danger of over-production , regardless
of the fact that Great Britain has a

property of the citizen are a part of
the general domain of the nation,
even when abroad.' This was challenged as an unaccepted rewriting of
