Sen ior Class
Art Exhibit :
?
:
You may think that all the important events of the years are taking
place before Christmas, but this is not
true. The most outstanding and instructive one is the Art Exhibit which
is put 9n th§ wggk of January 9th by
the Senior Class.
A beautiful collection of pictures,
the world's great master-pieces, will be
on exhibition in the auditorium the
sible for all to study them during their
entire week, which will make it posleisure time.
This Art Exhibit is under the auspices of the Senior Class with the
guidance of Professor Bakeless. Tickets may be purchased from any member of the Ticket Committee. A member of this committee will be appointed in every division of Juniors and
Seniors.
The proceeds will be used to purchase pictures for the lobby. Anyone
wishing to purchase pictures for individual use may do so.
The Senior Class wishes for cooperation of all the faculty and students
so that the Exhibit may be of great
value to all and a fine success.

CHRISTMAS DANCE A SUCCESS
The Christmas Dance of the College was a great success. The gymnasium was very artistically decorated
and was commented on favorably by
the many persons who attended the
affair.
Much credit is due to the dance
committee composed of Elfid Jones,
Chairman, Francis McHugh, Clarence
Ruch, Margaret Swartz, and Adelaide
Bahr. Many other persons of the
school who helped these persons in
their great task are also to be complimented on their cooperation.
Alexander 's Orchestra of Bloomsburg furnished the music. They offered a varied and well liked program
of dance music.
The patronesses of the dance were:
Mrs. Francis B. Haas, Mrs. W. B. Sutliff , Miss Edith Cannon , Miss Harriet
Moore, Miss Edith Stauffer and Mrs.
John Koch.
Many guests from distant points attended the affair and enj oyed the hospitality of the school. The Christmas
spirt pervaded throughout the social
event that brought into closer contact
the student body and faculty with
the friends of the institution.

An event which promises to be one
of the biggest features of the year at
Bloomsburg was held Thursday evening at Teachers College when more
than four hundred members of the
Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs were the
guests of the College at a dinner.
This was the first affair of its kind
in which the town folk and the college people got to know more of each,
other , except at the lyceum courses
which do not afford much opportunity
for making acquaintances.
After a gala evening spent as the
guests of the College, the Rotarians
and the Kiwanians and their friends
departed bearing a great knowledge of
the activities of the College on the
Hill.
The efforts of Dr. Haas in making
this meeting possible were fully appreciated by the assembled guests. In
his closing remarks he outlined the
reasons- for such a meeting and its ultimate value to the school and the
community.

WHI P-POOR-WILL
The wind scarce lifts the maple leaves,
The dew on the grass lies thick,
The warm sweet scent of the clover
Steals across from the new hay rick.
And the night is so still that the stillness hurts,
When faint from the pines on the hill
Across the quivering moonlit air
Comes a sweet, clear "Whip-poor-will."
The tiny night sounds make the stillness loud—
The crickets drowsy cheep,
A tinkling sound from the pasture field
As the cattle lie down to sleep;
The night is so lonesome, so beautiful,
And I long for—I know not what,
WHefi the voice of the bird Gomes
winging to me
Across from the old wood lot.
"Whip-poor-will, whip-poor-will, whippoor-will."

Art Exhibit :
?
:
You may think that all the important events of the years are taking
place before Christmas, but this is not
true. The most outstanding and instructive one is the Art Exhibit which
is put 9n th§ wggk of January 9th by
the Senior Class.
A beautiful collection of pictures,
the world's great master-pieces, will be
on exhibition in the auditorium the
sible for all to study them during their
entire week, which will make it posleisure time.
This Art Exhibit is under the auspices of the Senior Class with the
guidance of Professor Bakeless. Tickets may be purchased from any member of the Ticket Committee. A member of this committee will be appointed in every division of Juniors and
Seniors.
The proceeds will be used to purchase pictures for the lobby. Anyone
wishing to purchase pictures for individual use may do so.
The Senior Class wishes for cooperation of all the faculty and students
so that the Exhibit may be of great
value to all and a fine success.

CHRISTMAS DANCE A SUCCESS
The Christmas Dance of the College was a great success. The gymnasium was very artistically decorated
and was commented on favorably by
the many persons who attended the
affair.
Much credit is due to the dance
committee composed of Elfid Jones,
Chairman, Francis McHugh, Clarence
Ruch, Margaret Swartz, and Adelaide
Bahr. Many other persons of the
school who helped these persons in
their great task are also to be complimented on their cooperation.
Alexander 's Orchestra of Bloomsburg furnished the music. They offered a varied and well liked program
of dance music.
The patronesses of the dance were:
Mrs. Francis B. Haas, Mrs. W. B. Sutliff , Miss Edith Cannon , Miss Harriet
Moore, Miss Edith Stauffer and Mrs.
John Koch.
Many guests from distant points attended the affair and enj oyed the hospitality of the school. The Christmas
spirt pervaded throughout the social
event that brought into closer contact
the student body and faculty with
the friends of the institution.

An event which promises to be one
of the biggest features of the year at
Bloomsburg was held Thursday evening at Teachers College when more
than four hundred members of the
Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs were the
guests of the College at a dinner.
This was the first affair of its kind
in which the town folk and the college people got to know more of each,
other , except at the lyceum courses
which do not afford much opportunity
for making acquaintances.
After a gala evening spent as the
guests of the College, the Rotarians
and the Kiwanians and their friends
departed bearing a great knowledge of
the activities of the College on the
Hill.
The efforts of Dr. Haas in making
this meeting possible were fully appreciated by the assembled guests. In
his closing remarks he outlined the
reasons- for such a meeting and its ultimate value to the school and the
community.

WHI P-POOR-WILL
The wind scarce lifts the maple leaves,
The dew on the grass lies thick,
The warm sweet scent of the clover
Steals across from the new hay rick.
And the night is so still that the stillness hurts,
When faint from the pines on the hill
Across the quivering moonlit air
Comes a sweet, clear "Whip-poor-will."
The tiny night sounds make the stillness loud—
The crickets drowsy cheep,
A tinkling sound from the pasture field
As the cattle lie down to sleep;
The night is so lonesome, so beautiful,
And I long for—I know not what,
WHefi the voice of the bird Gomes
winging to me
Across from the old wood lot.
"Whip-poor-will, whip-poor-will, whippoor-will."
