Education Week
The National Education Association
in conjunction with the American Legion have designated the week beginning November 7 and ending November
13 as American Education Week. The
purpose of American Education Week,
is to acquaint the public with the actual work of the schools, their ideals,
their achievements, and their needs.
Following the example of the United
States, the World Federation of Education Associations at its recent Toronto meeting recommended that Education Week be observed throughout
the nations of the world.
The Journal of the National Education Association states that American
Education Week should mean—"For
every child—appreciation of his obligation to match the privilege of free
schooling with good spirit and hearty
endeavor. For every teacher—A new
and challenging call to serve the children of this generation and to work
on the problems of the profession.
For every parent—Fuller understanding of the great adventure of parenthood; its duties, privileges, and opportunities, more especially its part in
the education of children. For every
citizen—Intelligent faith in the public
school as our greatest collective en
terprise, the foundation of our liberties, the protector of the achievements
of our glorious past, and the promise
of fuller life for tomorrow."
Each day of American Education
Week has been designated for observation in a particular way : Monday is
"Health Day "; Tuesday, "Home and
S c h o o l Day "; Wednesday, "Know
Your School Day "; Thursday, "School
Opportunitf Day "; Friday, "Armistice
a n d Citizenship Day"; Saturday,
"For God and Country Day."
The American Education Association and the American Legion are asking the American people during the
coming week to renew their faith in
the effectiveness of education in a
democracy. All communities throughout the United States are expected
through public meetings and visits to
public schools to become interested In

The local gridders wearing the Maroon and Gold were overwhelmed by a
much heavier and more experienced
team representing Wyoming Seminary
Due to the fact that there aren't
enough men out for football, to fill in
the ranks, many of the regulars have
been forced to play throughout the
whole season with sustained inj uries.
This was hardly realized before our
boys played Wyoming when nearly all
the boys in the line-up had some injury or other. The team was without
the service of Kellar, who was inj ure d
in the West Chester game ; Kraynack
who had been forced out of the Keystone game with a bruised shoulder,
and Matthews who was forced out of
the game after the first few minutes
of play .
In the first few seconds a Wyoming
end blocked one of Strauser's punts
and raced over the goal line for their
first touchdown. The next score came
near the end of the firs t quarter when
one of Wyoming's powerful backs raced
fifteen • yards for the second touchdown. Again Brominski made the extra point. The quarter ended with the
score Bloomsburg 0—Wyoming 14.
• Wyoming scored thirteen points in
;he second quarter and fourteen more
in the second half. The game ended
,vlth the score fo.ty to nothing in fa/or of Wyoming.

and Citizenship Day " will be discussed by Reverend Hiestand on Friday in chapel.
There Is no better way of enlistin g
t h e interest of sch ool patrons th an to
show what the schools are actually
doing. With this thought in mind
all parents of children In the Teachers College Training School are invited to visit the school some timo
during American Education Week.

Ahoy ! And all hail ! Everyone certainly was on the main deck for our
glori ous Hallowe'en Party ! And weren't we all just as anxious as we could
be to interpret some of the mysteries
of tfte party that have been hanging
over us like a phantom like obj ect, for
all these past days ! Mysteries they
certainly were—and some more th'an
ccean deep! But some old soothsayer,
a wee bit wiser than any of us can
hope to be, has said that the ocean is
only as deep as it has a mind to be —
but on the strength of that—and the
enshrouding mystery—it surely must
have had a mind to be "purrty deep"'!
But it wasn't oceans we were talking
about—let's see—why, yes, it was parties—but what a connection ! Whoever
heard of having a party in the ocean?
But on with the party ! The tables
in the dining room were most attractively decorated in all the oranges and
greens and blacks that the dyers of the
country have been able to invent ! And
a pretty sigh t it was! Dame Nature
also had a hand in the novelty of the
dining room decoration , and here and
there, the good-hearted and kind dame
provided tablecloths and streamers of
her red and golden leaves. Whatever
would we do, if Nature hadn't endowed
us with these wonderful things !
Just after the meal In the dining
room was" begun, there was a great
commotion from both ends of the room.
The astonished food-partakers fixed
their eyes on the queerest bunches of
humanity that have ever been seen.
We can't tell who they were, but they
seemed to have lost something, for each
of the farmer boys—our entrantees—
were rubbing dirty fists into equally
dirty faces and eyes. They were dressed
in the usual costume of a farmer boy
—and their patched overalls added
much to the "scenery" of the occasion.
There was another great shout—and
in walked the queerest cow ! If you will
believe it, his legs looked absolutely
like the legs of some of our own college boys ! But, of course, since it is
impossible for any cow to have human
legs, wo just stared and stared, and decided that there must have been a mixContinued on Page 8

We are very fortunate in having M.
T. Yamamoto, an American correspondent for a Japanese newspaper,
and who has done two years graduate
work at the University of Pittsburgh,
speak in Chapel on Monday. TTis subj ect was American-Japanese relations.
The first point considered was that
of National Defence. National Defence
has always been considered a matter
of necessity. People look with pride on
an army or a navy, and soldiers and
sailors everywhere are honored. This
idea is very good so long as it does not
influence the peace existing between
two nations. The present idea of Nationalism is a great menace to peace.' It
is tarnished by narrow pride and love
of power. Aviation should be encouraged, not to destroy life, but as a service to transportation and communication. Business must be protected, but
not in a selfish manner. The spirit
of the Washington Conference was
against Naval competition. In Japan
one-third of the taxes are spent for
National Defence. This is bound to
bring dissatisfaction among the Japanese people. After the Conference, Japan not only reduced her expenditures
on ships and armaments, but in her
public school text books every article
which would cause unkindly feelings
against another nation were removed.
When Japan was suffering from a
terrible earth quake, America sent $11,000,000 or twice the amount asked for.
This led the Japanese to believe that
we considered them as our brothers
and friends, Shortly after this America passed some laws restricting Japanese immigration to this country. Japan was hurt by this, not so much
because they could not come here, but
because of the method used In forbidding them to come,
From an economic point of view Japan and the United States must remain friends. In 1924 we bought from
Japan $707,000,000 worth of produce.
In return Japan is the best customer
America has in the Pacific. Japan
must feed her ever increasing population , and she can do this only as long
as her industries continue to enlarge.

GIRLS

DORMITORY

IN. NEED OF IRONS

There is always a great rush on
fourth floor in the Press Room because there are no other irons in the
dormitory. Yesterday between two
and six o'clock there were so many
girls in the press room that you
could hardly move around. We think
this can be easily remedied by replacing new irons and we are sure
that the girls will take care of these.
HALLOWE 'EN PART Y

The students of the school certainly were surprised when they saw the
different booths and the decorations
in the gym. They couldn't imagine
when it all happened. It was done by
the Camp Fire Girls. What a wonderful organization it must be. The
girls certainly have the "get up " in
them that they should have. North
Hall orchestra was greatly appreciated also. They are improving very
rapidly. We were all glad to see every member of the faculty present.

Mr. Wintersteen , a former Columbia
Countian, who has just returned from
Bolivia after spending five years there,
gave an interesting talk before chapel
last week. Mr. Wintersteeen was a
missionary in Bolivia and because of
this connection . had many contacts
with the uncivilized peoples there. He
stated that the people are of a mixed
Indian and Spanish blood and are almost devoid of modern civilization.
Mr. Wintersteen spoke interestingly
of the native costumes in vogue there.
He said that all occupations include
ing agriculture are at their lowest ebb.
In concluding Mr. Wintersteen stated
that the missonary work presented an
appeal to all young enterprising men
and women.
The talk was sponsored by the Geographic Society which is making
rapid strides under the able faculty
advisorship of Dr. H. Harrison Russell.

respect.
Peace encourages the progress of
mankind, which depends on better human relations and a feeling of understanding. Japan and America need to
be friends, to have a complete understanding, not only about armaments,
but in spirits, character, hopes, and
ambitions. The most effective way to
do this is through our five great institutions: The home, the church, the
state, business life, and the school. The
foundation of a nation depends upon
the attitudes, ideas, and ideals formed
and carried out in these institutions.
And so in our relations with and concerning Japan we should at all times
encourage the best possible understanding.

OUR LITERARY DEPARTMENT
"THE VILLAGE"
Of all the stores in the world, from
the exclusive Shoppes of Fifth Avenue to the grocer on the corner, there
is none which holds so much genuine
interest for me as does the little Bohemian Art shop of Greenwich Village. To the lover of romance, its
mystifying atmosphere and historybTn'i possessions present many possibilities.

SHORT STORY
In our little house of white stone
The gay fires have grown cold;
There's dust upon the mantel-piece
Where sits the ship of gold.
The colored rooms are silent now
That laughed to hear you tread .
Things that were so brilliant there
Are grey, and drear, and dead.
The little wind-bells made of glass
Above our bright door way
That used to sing with every breeze
In broken pieces lay.
T'd dust the little mantel-piece
And shine the ship ef geld
If you could come across the world
And light the fires grown cold.
I'd sweep the broken wind-bells up
And paint the old door-way
If you could come and be the same
A.s you were yesterday.
Now, olden lovers know too well
That cold fires can be lighted
But on e ca n nevermore rev ive
Two hearts that have been blighted.
—By Norcia

who always liked Arithmetic. It was
the day for the test to determine how

This form of test is given in each
State Teachers College and Normal
School in Pennsylvania. The test in
eighth grar*° English was given last
