BLOOM COMES THRO UGH AGAIN
To the Tune of 13-6
The shrill note of a whistle and the tension
is broken. Hoarse cries fro m hundreds of
strained throats , yells of wild delight, the din
of dozens of auto horns, blown frantically
and without regard for musical accord , and
again the Maroon and Gold held up in victory.
Saturday , October 20th witnessed the second victory of Bloomsburg 's Iron Men when
they carried the ball across Shippenburg 's
line for two touchdowns. True , the Red
and Blue of Shippensburg went over the line
once in the second quarter and scored the
leading six points , but during the remainder
of the. game our men showed such driving
power and accuracy in passing that the visitors were forced to play a decided defensive.
In spite of the wind which continued during the greater part of the game, ou r aeria l
attack was good and the kicking on both sides
during the first quarter was worthy of special
note.
"Jap " Fritz took the ball on the kick-off
and carried it to our forty-yard line. Two
plunges and an end-run gave Bloomsburg her
yarda ge, but after the next three plays, in
spite of an offside penalty on Shippensburg,
our men were forced to kick. Kirker put the
ball behind the goal line and the referee
brought it out to the twenty yard line , where
Shippenburg made an unsuccessfu l buck-off
tackle. Two more drives and the visitors
surrendered the ball on a kick.
Kraynack put Mowrer back for a fast end
run. "Heck" carried the ball wide but lacked interference to clear the men coming
through , His gain was almost two yards.
A lateral pass was also unsuccessful. Bloomsburg s trouble on the offensive during the first
continued on page 4

D ear Hodges,
Thanks for the paper. I greatly appreciated your sending it to me.
I want to congratulate you upon the fine
spirit displayed when our team visited Bloom
last week. Our boys did not talk so much
about the game but loudly praised the reception accorded our team, our band and our
cheering squad (small tho' it was). In fact
the cheer and band leaders say they were
never treated so royally anywhere.
This goes far toward preserving good relations. Congratulations!
Truly youra,
Howard A. Cressman
It makes a school or anyone feel good to
receive a letter of this type. It shows what

Dr. Russell Speaks on "Modern Columbus "
Byrd Expedition Discussed
A fine progra m was presented to us in our
chapel exercises of October 22. Dr. Russell
talked to us on "A Modern Columbus."
The modern Columbus today is Lieutenant Byrd , who is commanding an expedition
to the Antarctic region.
Before tellin g much about Byrd , h owever,
Dr. Russell told us of some other explorers
who went into the Anta rctic region. They
were given in the following order:
Captain Cook , (Brit. ) 18th century .
Smith and Bransfield , ( Brit.) 19th century .
Palmer , (Amer. ) 19th century .
Lieutenant Wilkes, (Amer. ) 19th century.
(Named region "Antartica. ")
Capt. Ross, ( Brit. ) 19th century. (Named
"Ross Sea. ")
A Belgian , 19th century .
A German , 19th century.
Bruce, ( Brit.) 19th century .
Shackleton , (Brit. ) 19th century. (Came
within 110 miles of South Pole.)
A-nandsen , (Norway) got to pole 1911.
Scott , ( Brit.) got to pole 1912. (Party perished in storm.)
Byrd is plannin g to take four vessels as far
as New Zealand. He will then take two as
far as he can into Ross Sea. One ship will
be sent back to New Zealand after a suitable
station has been made. The station will consist of six buildin gs: the executive , the electric generating, the mess, the machine shop
and two bunks for the men.
From this station on the ice, an attempt
will be made to get to the pole by aeroplane.1
The plane , to get to the pole , will have to
rise 10,000 feet. Observations will be. made
from this height as to wind direction , land
surface and climate. Byrd thinks that maybe
the A ntartica is divided into two islands, cut
by a narrow strait.
Prom this very interesting talk , we certainly gathered very important facts as to why
Byrd and others have thought it so important
to go into the polar regions and risk their
lives. Who knows what Byrd , in the two
years down in Antartica will find.

A PERFECT STUDENT
A perfect student is not necessarily the
brightest. A pupil may be bright or dull and
yet be a perfect student. He is independent
in all his work , diligent in all his studies , attentive at all instructions , respectful to both
teachers and classmates, proud of his college
and loyal to it , a participant in all activities
of his college and class. He can be called on
at any time to take part in any scholastic
movement or to help in any task. The
paramount characteristic of such a student is
his gentlemanly behavior and his unfailin g
courtesy.
If girls or boys lack any of these characteristics they do not come under the head of
perfect students. It is the model pupils who
are remembered by their classmates throu ghout the years to come. To be a perfect student is one of the greatest and hardest achievement* to attain. How perfect , how enjoyabl e, h ow happy, would our college life
be if all strove to be worth-while btudents.

Y. W. C. A. Meets
/The regular weekly Y. W. C. A. meeting
was held on Oct. 17, at 6:40 p. m., in Science
Hall. The devotional part of the meeting
was opened with the singing of several service hymns . A scriptural passage was read
from John 12: 1-17 by the leader , Jane Williams , after which the Lord's Prayer was repeated in unison.
In taking up the topic for the evening the
leader defined Service as "the devotions of
the heart of life to God. " Christ has set us
an excellent example when he did the mean
task cf washing the feet of the disciples and
when he said , ''If I, Lord and Teacher , wash
you r f eet , ye shall wash each others ' also. "
Christ came to this world not to be served
but to serve—to give himself for and thus to
serve the people here on earth. In our lives
we m ust hav e high ideals and "Hitch our
wagon to a star , " even though we cannot attain this height. "
At this time the president , Margaret Oswald , took charg e and held a short business
meeting. The club decided to hold the
dance, which is to raise money to send girls
to "Y" Conference , as previously planned ,
regardless of the fact that the gymnasium will
probably not be completed .
The meeting was closed by the singing of
another Service Hymn and the repeating of
the Christian Endeavor Benediction.

Friends ,Romans,Countrymen! Lend me your
ears.
I will return them next Saturday . I come
to bury Caesar, because the times are hard
and his folks can 't afford an undertaker.
The evil that men do lives after them.
In the shape of progeny that reap the
Benefit of their life insurance.
But Brutus has told you that Caesar was Ambitious.
What does Brutus know about it?
He should £o wipe off his chin.
Caesar hath brought many captives to Rome
who broke rock on the streets and saved
the expense of a contractor.
When the poor hath cried , Caesar wept
Because it didn 't cost anything and made
him solid with the masses.
Did Caesar not sign the petition for a postoffice?
But Brutus said Caesar was ambitious.
Do I not remember that Caesar thrice refused the crown
on the Lupercal because it didn 't quite fit
him.
1 am no thief like Brutus
I. do not come to steal your hearts away
And now that it looks like rain we will prepare to bury
Caesar and not to praise him,

THE GIFT AND THE GIVER
In a far country there lived a peasant family whose name will never be known. In this
family there were two girls and a boy. The
girls were cheerful , thrifty girls who were contented with this cheerful mountain home.
Romanoff, the son, was the outstanding mem- '
ber of the family and of the village. He was
not of the plodding pleasant nature, but he
was destined to do great things with the violin. He was of a race of people from whom
music came instinctively.
It was from his nation that the plaintive,
croening melodies came. Romanoff had fallen
heir to all the mystical power of his people in
playing the violin. From earliest childhood
he had been told that the world was before
him to do with as he would. The old and
honored men of the villag e reco unted stori es
of natives of their land who had been honored before the nations of the world. Romanoff listened to the tales of the patriachs of his
village and pondered about them. Did not
the old men , the wise grandfathers, say that
he could do great things? Surely that meant
that he would be famous.
He often tucked his violin und er his arm
and climb ed to a cliff ne ar th e small hillside
village. From the top of the cliff he could
see the far distant sea. On this cliff he would
spend many hours dreaming of the future.
In his dreams he pictured his departure to the
outside world. He ccild see the vessel sailing lazily down the ribbon of blue and out into the large band of blue. On the shore he
pictured his family gathered to say good-byeSometimes his dream projected farther into
the future. He caught a glimpse of his return to his native land. Was it strange that
this dreamer pictured a triumphant return?
The vessel bringing him home was gaily decked with banners. The shores of his native
land were crowded with a tumultous throng
impatient to welcome the world's greatest violinist. Such was the mountain violinist 's
dream of fame and success.
Romanoff grew from boyhood to youth the
idol of his village. His sisters never minded
the sacrifice of a coveted ribbon or a shawl if
the sacrifice meant something for Romanoff.
His parents lived for their son, and already
the toil of labor and their active working
years was being repaid. They desired nothing more than to sit at evening and listen to
Romanoff's haunting tunes. They were soothed by the gentle , murmerings of the fiddle;
they were stirred to laughter by the hilarious
music of the strings, and they shed quiet tears
when the violin poured forth a mysterious
feeling of sadness,
Romanoff played at all the village gatherings, and there were many of these for he came
from a festival loving people. His fame was
already spreading to neighboring towns, The
reports were always enthusiastic. Never had
such a violinist been heard in this region of
noted players.
There was only one man who list ened in
silence. This old man had seen much of life
and knew Romano ff had much to learn . He
often compared Romanoff's work to a new
bell that had not been tested. The bell is
new and shinny, but will it stand up under the
strain of work? So was Romanoff's art. His
music was the most joyful burst of youthful
r aptur e, but would it prove its worth when
Romanoff met the stern problems of life?
The village where Romanoff lived was quiet
and peaceful . The news of the outside world
seemed to loose the glamor and discord of a
discontented world when it finally reached
the small village. The villagers heard without being gr eatly stirr ed , that the powerful
nations of the world were hostile and that a
great war was sweeping over a neighboring
country. What was that to them? Such
events were far removed from their daily life.
They had plenty of work and a good harvest.
Above all they had festival days on which to
make merry.
The natives of the village were preparing
for one of their spring festivals when a great
event occured. Down on the ribbon of blue a
vessel had came to anchor. From a little seaport town a number of t ouri sts had climb ed
to the mountain village. These tourists had
heard of the picturesque spring festival and
had traveled far to see it.
The day of the festival Romanoff played
some of the loved songs of his country. He
played as he had never played before. The
music was a beautiful picture of the life of his
sanguine, wistful race. The tourists were
amazed at the rustic violinist's interpretation
of the varing moods of his people. There was
a youth who could hold the attention of a
fickle world. .
,
The sponser of the party was a wealthy and
very shrewd business man, who determined to
help this young violinist. He sent an invitation to Romanoff to come and play for his
countrymen the next day. Romanoff came
and held the blase foreigners enthalled with
his swaying, touching melodies. They forgot
to wear the mark of polite interest and abandoning all pretenses fell into the mood of the
player. They too laughed and wept and felt
the soul of the violin throb.
After the recital the business man coaxed
Romanoff to stay for a talk. The man had
determined that he should have a chance for
world fame. He explained to him that he
would launch him on a career in another
country if Romanoff would agree to two terms.
Romanoff inquired what the terms were, and
he was informed that the first required him
to change his name and the second to renounce
his country and become a citizen of the tourists land. Romanoff felt that such conditions
were extraordinary and asked for the reasons.
The business man explained that Romanoff's
country was not on friendly terms with the
powers the tourist's country was allied with.
The foreigner 's countrymen would not accept
Romanoff unless he renounced his country. It
was necessary that he change his name so that
people could not tell his nationality.
Romanoff was so stunn ed that he was unable to give an answer that night. The foreigner told the violinist to inform him of his
decision the next day.
P A T RO N I Z B- O U R
|
Romanoff wandered in a daze out of the •
inn and up to his cliff. His chance had come
at last ; his dreams would be fulfilled. The
world would soon be prostrate at the feet of
the greatest violinist of
, but when he
came to say the name of his country he stopped. No he would no longer be a native of
the music loving country. He would not be
able to bear his own name but must discard
it for another. Ah , these were difficult problems for young Romanoff.
The violin had always been a friend and
counselor in time of trouble, and now in his
great need he picked it up and began to play.
The violin seemed to speak to him. It told
hinrof his parents, of their sacrifice , and of
their pride in him. It whispered stories of his
native land. It thrilled out the story of how
he owed his art to the country of his native
birth. The violin was throbbing out the story
of the greatest melody that had ever played
on it. It was pouring out the struggle of Romanoff 's heart , the struggle between fame and
love of home. Many villages heard in the
dusk of the evening the music as it floated
down the mountain side. All paused and
and stopped to marvel at the piece. One
man, a man who knew much about life, stopped and prayed. He knew that the silver bell
had come to the great test.
At dusk a year later many soldiers were at
rest in their trenches after a weary heart rendering day. They were taken back to the
land of their birth by the music of a companion. He played on his fiddle the tunes of his
mountain country, the gay dances and the
quiet meditations. Those that listened intently knew that a master violinist was playing of peace and happiness in the mire of war.
An old man, a man who knew much about
life, could have told something more if he had
been there. He would have told you that
the fiddler might be likened to a silver bell ,
that had been tested and proven worthy.

Oh, that I were a child again
So happy, so gay and free.

Are worth untold treasures to me.
Those days are forever locked in my heart ,
They recall happiness, you see.
If anyone cares to share my joys—
I will gladly lend you the key.

We said that we did not sell the tickets but

BLOOM COMES THROUGH AGAIN
continued from page 1
half seemed to be almost entirely due to lack
of interference . The home boys were also
decidedly weak in their tackling; however,
¦Ruch at center played a beautiful defensive
and seemed to be at the bottom of most of the
tackles. Kraynack was a tower of strength
in the backfield defense.
In the second quarter , aft er r eceiving
Bloomsburg's punt, the r ed an d blue dro ve
thirty-five yards for the first tally but failed
to clear our men on the kick, leaving an open
score of 6-0.
Thomas who suffered an injured hand was
replaced by "Vid" Jones intmediately following the first scoring, and after a neat catch
from the kick-off, Captain "Eckie " was stopped on his own thirty-five yard line.
Jones immediately went back and carried
the ball off tackle for several decided gains.
Varying th e plays with short passes, Bloom
drove through the Shippeij sburg aggregation
for twenty-nine yards and then realizing the
approach of the half-ending, the offense took
to aerial work entirely.
"Vid" went back to throw forward. Waiting for a man to get sufficiently clear to warrant a pass, Jones tried out the Shippensburg
boys in a neat game of tag behind th e line of
scrimmage using his own natural speed and a
straight left arm as his only interference. His
pa sses wer e fast but the wind drove most of
them off their course till "Heck " Mowrer
wrapped his arms arou nd one and carried it
far into Red and Blue territory. Thus* the
half end ed w ith Bloomsburg's ball on Shippensburg's twenty-five yard line.
When Bloomsburg 's huskies tr ott ed out on
the field for the third period it was plainly
evident th at th ere would be "something do ing ". There was.
Taking the ball from the kick-off, the Maroon and Gold eleven drove strai ght down th e
field with Kirker plunging and Jones passing
till a thirty yard pass was uncorked and
"Tarn " Kirker , who stood over the goal line,
tete a tete with one of our ends, took it in.
Shippensburg, who had been fighting straight
bucks through guard and off-tackle seemed
totally unprepared for a long pass and had
left themselves open for the long aerial score.
Swmehart drew out of tackle position to
kick but the wind broke against him and carried the ball to the right of the goal posts.
Again the home team received the kick-off ,
but after several penalties for incomplete
passes, kicked neatly to Shippensburg's thirtynine yard line.
The team fro m Cumberland Valley put the
ball into play and succeeded in making their
fourth and last first-down of the game.
Shortly Shippensburg was again forced to
punt. The ball rolled over Bloomsburg 's line
and went into play on our own twenty-yard
line.
Captain Kraynack called his men into the
"huddle" and then started a march down the
field that Bloom fans shall not forget. Practically every play lessened the distance to the
goal line. Mowrer grabbed a neat pass and
was taken out on our opponents twenty-nine
yard line, shortly after "Red" Creasy scooped
one in and carried it within two yards of the
goal.
Shippensburg held until Kraynack got
through on the third down and placed the ball
over the line. Swinehart again dropped back
for the drop-kick. However, he cleverly faked and shot a pass to Jones, who was free
over the goal line.
Shippensburg lined up to receive the kick,
but lost their advantage when they fumbled
on their first scrimmage and Jap Fritz surrounded the ball. Bloomsburg gained two
first downs and an incompleted pass dropped
over the goal line as the referee's whistle announced the close of the game.
Bloomsburg's cheering section was fine. A
crowd of girls even got up a toy band to speed
the team to victory, and the attitude of th e
entire mass of rooters seemed to be, "Go to
it boys. We're with you, win or lo.se."

Bloomsburg , Pa.
Dear Mr. College,
Through the aid of the . Nick Carter Detective Agency we have succeeded in tracing
your movements to the North Hall dormitory for men at the State Teacher 's College.
As we stated in our last letter , which you received at your home , we demand immediate
payment for the suit which you bought of
our firm two (2) years ago. If we don 't receive payment in two (2) weeks we will
press you and not the suit to the* wall.
When you left town there were still two
(2) payments due on the garment for which
you paid $8.37^ with three vest , and two
pairs of pants. If you will mail us by return
postage the $1.42# we will be much obliged
to you , but if you do not , then we require
that .you send back one of the pairs of pants.
As a special favor *to the Golden Glitter
Jewelry Co., they request us to inform you
that if the back installments on the manicuring set which you took of their firm are not
sent soon that they will put you in the Eastern Pen where E. Stroudsbufg is now busy
making license plates.
Tell Prof. Absent Minded that the style
suit which he desired has not been worn since
the civil war.
Yours truly,
Klassy Kollege Kut Klothes Kompany .

Once there was a little pig whose father
said , "If you clean the yard I will give you
ten cents. "
So the little pig cleaned the yard. He
wanted a red ribbon on his tail , and when
his father paid him the little pig went to market and bought some ribbon. He even asked the store keeper to tie it on.
When he started home it began to rain and
the rain got in his eyes. The rain made a
mud puddle and he fell into the mud puddle.
When he got home his mother had to put
clean things on him and she never let that
little pig go to the store again.

The other two games will be played Friday the 26th.
The teams that have not lost a game thus
far are C. McEneany 's, E. Young 's and R.
Sonner 's.
E. Young 's team is showing up fine. On
team 10, Sara Welliver playing at right inside is doing fine work. Team 10 made 3
goals that could not be counted, because some
of the players were off sides.
The teams are having quite a great deal
of trouble with the ruts at the one goal. The
ruts have not been filled in properly. Outside of t h at t h e fi eld is in bette r conditio n
this year than it has been in many years.
The enthusiasm this year is great. Many
persons are found on the side lines watching
the games.

"Dinny " Thomas' hand , which was seriously injured in the game with Shippensburg, is
steadily improving. Everyone hopes that
"Dinny " will be back in the game soon.
Dean Koch , with Mrs. Koch, and son Joey
attended the home-coming game at Bucknell,
his Alma Mater, last Saturday.
James Joseph Johns went to Scranton over
the week end to get a hair cut. Even a freshman should think of a better one than that.
Joe Slovianski and Steve Waurin had a box
of fresh fruit Sunday. Yes, had—past tense.
A great number of the fellows left for a
week end visit. They certainly had fine weather in which to enjoy it.
Wilbur Fisher and Ralph Davies entertained visitors here Saturday night.
Philip Kester, a former Bloomsburg man
who is now attending Penn State, was warmly greeted by his friends here on Saturday.
The Party in Frank Perch 's room on Monday night broke up at eleven o'clock. Everyone was enjoy ing himself and it would have
lasted longer were it not for the fact that the
eats gave out at that time.

To the Tune of 13-6
The shrill note of a whistle and the tension
is broken. Hoarse cries fro m hundreds of
strained throats , yells of wild delight, the din
of dozens of auto horns, blown frantically
and without regard for musical accord , and
again the Maroon and Gold held up in victory.
Saturday , October 20th witnessed the second victory of Bloomsburg 's Iron Men when
they carried the ball across Shippenburg 's
line for two touchdowns. True , the Red
and Blue of Shippensburg went over the line
once in the second quarter and scored the
leading six points , but during the remainder
of the. game our men showed such driving
power and accuracy in passing that the visitors were forced to play a decided defensive.
In spite of the wind which continued during the greater part of the game, ou r aeria l
attack was good and the kicking on both sides
during the first quarter was worthy of special
note.
"Jap " Fritz took the ball on the kick-off
and carried it to our forty-yard line. Two
plunges and an end-run gave Bloomsburg her
yarda ge, but after the next three plays, in
spite of an offside penalty on Shippensburg,
our men were forced to kick. Kirker put the
ball behind the goal line and the referee
brought it out to the twenty yard line , where
Shippenburg made an unsuccessfu l buck-off
tackle. Two more drives and the visitors
surrendered the ball on a kick.
Kraynack put Mowrer back for a fast end
run. "Heck" carried the ball wide but lacked interference to clear the men coming
through , His gain was almost two yards.
A lateral pass was also unsuccessful. Bloomsburg s trouble on the offensive during the first
continued on page 4
NANTICOKE CLUB BANQUET A SUCCESS

D ear Hodges,
Thanks for the paper. I greatly appreciated your sending it to me.
I want to congratulate you upon the fine
spirit displayed when our team visited Bloom
last week. Our boys did not talk so much
about the game but loudly praised the reception accorded our team, our band and our
cheering squad (small tho' it was). In fact
the cheer and band leaders say they were
never treated so royally anywhere.
This goes far toward preserving good relations. Congratulations!
Truly youra,

It makes a school or anyone feel good to

At the end of this program , Mr. Fenstemaker said he had composed an orchestra

sung with great spirit by all present.
To end , the entire student body sang the
"Alma Mater ," with the orchestra accompanying. This program was thoroughly enjoy ed by all and the orchestra and Mr. Fenstemaker are to be congratulated.
Dr. Russell Speaks on "Modern Columbus "
Byrd Expedition Discussed
A fine progra m was presented to us in our
chapel exercises of October 22. Dr. Russell
talked to us on "A Modern Columbus."
The modern Columbus today is Lieutenant Byrd , who is commanding an expedition
to the Antarctic region.
Before tellin g much about Byrd , h owever,
Dr. Russell told us of some other explorers
who went into the Anta rctic region. They
were given in the following order:
Captain Cook , (Brit. ) 18th century .
Smith and Bransfield , ( Brit.) 19th century .
Palmer , (Amer. ) 19th century .
Lieutenant Wilkes, (Amer. ) 19th century.
(Named region "Antartica. ")
Capt. Ross, ( Brit. ) 19th century. (Named
"Ross Sea. ")
A Belgian , 19th century .
A German , 19th century.
Bruce, ( Brit.) 19th century .
Shackleton , (Brit. ) 19th century. (Came
within 110 miles of South Pole.)
A-nandsen , (Norway) got to pole 1911.
Scott , ( Brit.) got to pole 1912. (Party perished in storm.)
Byrd is plannin g to take four vessels as far
as New Zealand. He will then take two as
far as he can into Ross Sea. One ship will
be sent back to New Zealand after a suitable
station has been made. The station will consist of six buildin gs: the executive , the electric generating, the mess, the machine shop
and two bunks for the men.
From this station on the ice, an attempt
will be made to get to the pole by aeroplane.1
The plane , to get to the pole , will have to
rise 10,000 feet. Observations will be. made
from this height as to wind direction , land
surface and climate. Byrd thinks that maybe
the A ntartica is divided into two islands, cut
by a narrow strait.
Prom this very interesting talk , we certainly gathered very important facts as to why
Byrd and others have thought it so important
to go into the polar regions and risk their
lives. Who knows what Byrd , in the two
years down in Antartica will find.

A PERFECT STUDENT
A perfect student is not necessarily the
brightest. A pupil may be bright or dull and
yet be a perfect student. He is independent
in all his work , diligent in all his studies , attentive at all instructions , respectful to both
teachers and classmates, proud of his college
and loyal to it , a participant in all activities
of his college and class. He can be called on
at any time to take part in any scholastic
movement or to help in any task. The
paramount characteristic of such a student is
his gentlemanly behavior and his unfailin g
courtesy.
If girls or boys lack any of these characteristics they do not come under the head of
perfect students. It is the model pupils who
are remembered by their classmates throu ghout the years to come. To be a perfect student is one of the greatest and hardest achievement* to attain. How perfect , how enjoyabl e, h ow happy, would our college life
be if all strove to be worth-while btudents.

Y. W. C. A. Meets
/The regular weekly Y. W. C. A. meeting
was held on Oct. 17, at 6:40 p. m., in Science
Hall. The devotional part of the meeting
was opened with the singing of several service hymns . A scriptural passage was read
from John 12: 1-17 by the leader , Jane Williams , after which the Lord's Prayer was repeated in unison.
In taking up the topic for the evening the
leader defined Service as "the devotions of
the heart of life to God. " Christ has set us
an excellent example when he did the mean
task cf washing the feet of the disciples and
when he said , ''If I, Lord and Teacher , wash
you r f eet , ye shall wash each others ' also. "
Christ came to this world not to be served
but to serve—to give himself for and thus to
serve the people here on earth. In our lives
we m ust hav e high ideals and "Hitch our
wagon to a star , " even though we cannot attain this height. "
At this time the president , Margaret Oswald , took charg e and held a short business
meeting. The club decided to hold the
dance, which is to raise money to send girls
to "Y" Conference , as previously planned ,
regardless of the fact that the gymnasium will
probably not be completed .
The meeting was closed by the singing of
another Service Hymn and the repeating of
the Christian Endeavor Benediction.

Friends ,Romans,Countrymen! Lend me your
ears.
I will return them next Saturday . I come
to bury Caesar, because the times are hard
and his folks can 't afford an undertaker.
The evil that men do lives after them.
In the shape of progeny that reap the
Benefit of their life insurance.
But Brutus has told you that Caesar was Ambitious.
What does Brutus know about it?
He should £o wipe off his chin.
Caesar hath brought many captives to Rome
who broke rock on the streets and saved
the expense of a contractor.
When the poor hath cried , Caesar wept
Because it didn 't cost anything and made
him solid with the masses.
Did Caesar not sign the petition for a postoffice?
But Brutus said Caesar was ambitious.
Do I not remember that Caesar thrice refused the crown
on the Lupercal because it didn 't quite fit
him.
1 am no thief like Brutus
I. do not come to steal your hearts away
And now that it looks like rain we will prepare to bury
Caesar and not to praise him,
"Lemons " Ford.

THE GIFT AND THE GIVER
In a far country there lived a peasant family whose name will never be known. In this
family there were two girls and a boy. The
girls were cheerful , thrifty girls who were contented with this cheerful mountain home.
Romanoff, the son, was the outstanding mem- '
ber of the family and of the village. He was
not of the plodding pleasant nature, but he
was destined to do great things with the violin. He was of a race of people from whom
music came instinctively.
It was from his nation that the plaintive,
croening melodies came. Romanoff had fallen
heir to all the mystical power of his people in
playing the violin. From earliest childhood
he had been told that the world was before
him to do with as he would. The old and
honored men of the villag e reco unted stori es
of natives of their land who had been honored before the nations of the world. Romanoff listened to the tales of the patriachs of his
village and pondered about them. Did not
the old men , the wise grandfathers, say that
he could do great things? Surely that meant
that he would be famous.
He often tucked his violin und er his arm
and climb ed to a cliff ne ar th e small hillside
village. From the top of the cliff he could
see the far distant sea. On this cliff he would
spend many hours dreaming of the future.
In his dreams he pictured his departure to the
outside world. He ccild see the vessel sailing lazily down the ribbon of blue and out into the large band of blue. On the shore he
pictured his family gathered to say good-byeSometimes his dream projected farther into
the future. He caught a glimpse of his return to his native land. Was it strange that
this dreamer pictured a triumphant return?
The vessel bringing him home was gaily decked with banners. The shores of his native
land were crowded with a tumultous throng
impatient to welcome the world's greatest violinist. Such was the mountain violinist 's
dream of fame and success.
Romanoff grew from boyhood to youth the
idol of his village. His sisters never minded
the sacrifice of a coveted ribbon or a shawl if
the sacrifice meant something for Romanoff.
His parents lived for their son, and already
the toil of labor and their active working
years was being repaid. They desired nothing more than to sit at evening and listen to
Romanoff's haunting tunes. They were soothed by the gentle , murmerings of the fiddle;
they were stirred to laughter by the hilarious
music of the strings, and they shed quiet tears
when the violin poured forth a mysterious
feeling of sadness,
Romanoff played at all the village gatherings, and there were many of these for he came
from a festival loving people. His fame was
already spreading to neighboring towns, The
reports were always enthusiastic. Never had
such a violinist been heard in this region of
noted players.
There was only one man who list ened in
silence. This old man had seen much of life
and knew Romano ff had much to learn . He
often compared Romanoff's work to a new
bell that had not been tested. The bell is
new and shinny, but will it stand up under the
strain of work? So was Romanoff's art. His
music was the most joyful burst of youthful
r aptur e, but would it prove its worth when
Romanoff met the stern problems of life?
The village where Romanoff lived was quiet
and peaceful . The news of the outside world
seemed to loose the glamor and discord of a
discontented world when it finally reached
the small village. The villagers heard without being gr eatly stirr ed , that the powerful
nations of the world were hostile and that a
great war was sweeping over a neighboring
country. What was that to them? Such
events were far removed from their daily life.
They had plenty of work and a good harvest.
Above all they had festival days on which to
make merry.
The natives of the village were preparing
for one of their spring festivals when a great
event occured. Down on the ribbon of blue a
vessel had came to anchor. From a little seaport town a number of t ouri sts had climb ed
to the mountain village. These tourists had
heard of the picturesque spring festival and
had traveled far to see it.
The day of the festival Romanoff played
some of the loved songs of his country. He
played as he had never played before. The
music was a beautiful picture of the life of his
sanguine, wistful race. The tourists were
amazed at the rustic violinist's interpretation
of the varing moods of his people. There was
a youth who could hold the attention of a
fickle world. .
,
The sponser of the party was a wealthy and
very shrewd business man, who determined to
help this young violinist. He sent an invitation to Romanoff to come and play for his
countrymen the next day. Romanoff came
and held the blase foreigners enthalled with
his swaying, touching melodies. They forgot
to wear the mark of polite interest and abandoning all pretenses fell into the mood of the
player. They too laughed and wept and felt
the soul of the violin throb.
After the recital the business man coaxed
Romanoff to stay for a talk. The man had
determined that he should have a chance for
world fame. He explained to him that he
would launch him on a career in another
country if Romanoff would agree to two terms.
Romanoff inquired what the terms were, and
he was informed that the first required him
to change his name and the second to renounce
his country and become a citizen of the tourists land. Romanoff felt that such conditions
were extraordinary and asked for the reasons.
The business man explained that Romanoff's
country was not on friendly terms with the
powers the tourist's country was allied with.
The foreigner 's countrymen would not accept
Romanoff unless he renounced his country. It
was necessary that he change his name so that
people could not tell his nationality.
Romanoff was so stunn ed that he was unable to give an answer that night. The foreigner told the violinist to inform him of his
decision the next day.
P A T RO N I Z B- O U R
|
Romanoff wandered in a daze out of the •
inn and up to his cliff. His chance had come
at last ; his dreams would be fulfilled. The
world would soon be prostrate at the feet of
the greatest violinist of
, but when he
came to say the name of his country he stopped. No he would no longer be a native of
the music loving country. He would not be
able to bear his own name but must discard
it for another. Ah , these were difficult problems for young Romanoff.
The violin had always been a friend and
counselor in time of trouble, and now in his
great need he picked it up and began to play.
The violin seemed to speak to him. It told
hinrof his parents, of their sacrifice , and of
their pride in him. It whispered stories of his
native land. It thrilled out the story of how
he owed his art to the country of his native
birth. The violin was throbbing out the story
of the greatest melody that had ever played
on it. It was pouring out the struggle of Romanoff 's heart , the struggle between fame and
love of home. Many villages heard in the
dusk of the evening the music as it floated
down the mountain side. All paused and
and stopped to marvel at the piece. One
man, a man who knew much about life, stopped and prayed. He knew that the silver bell
had come to the great test.
At dusk a year later many soldiers were at
rest in their trenches after a weary heart rendering day. They were taken back to the
land of their birth by the music of a companion. He played on his fiddle the tunes of his
mountain country, the gay dances and the
quiet meditations. Those that listened intently knew that a master violinist was playing of peace and happiness in the mire of war.
An old man, a man who knew much about
life, could have told something more if he had
been there. He would have told you that
the fiddler might be likened to a silver bell ,
that had been tested and proven worthy.

BLOOM COMES THROUGH AGAIN
continued from page 1
half seemed to be almost entirely due to lack
of interference . The home boys were also
decidedly weak in their tackling; however,
¦Ruch at center played a beautiful defensive
and seemed to be at the bottom of most of the
tackles. Kraynack was a tower of strength
in the backfield defense.
In the second quarter , aft er r eceiving
Bloomsburg's punt, the r ed an d blue dro ve
thirty-five yards for the first tally but failed
to clear our men on the kick, leaving an open
score of 6-0.
Thomas who suffered an injured hand was
replaced by "Vid" Jones intmediately following the first scoring, and after a neat catch
from the kick-off, Captain "Eckie " was stopped on his own thirty-five yard line.
Jones immediately went back and carried
the ball off tackle for several decided gains.
Varying th e plays with short passes, Bloom
drove through the Shippeij sburg aggregation
for twenty-nine yards and then realizing the
approach of the half-ending, the offense took
to aerial work entirely.
"Vid" went back to throw forward. Waiting for a man to get sufficiently clear to warrant a pass, Jones tried out the Shippensburg
boys in a neat game of tag behind th e line of
scrimmage using his own natural speed and a
straight left arm as his only interference. His
pa sses wer e fast but the wind drove most of
them off their course till "Heck " Mowrer
wrapped his arms arou nd one and carried it
far into Red and Blue territory. Thus* the
half end ed w ith Bloomsburg's ball on Shippensburg's twenty-five yard line.
When Bloomsburg 's huskies tr ott ed out on
the field for the third period it was plainly
evident th at th ere would be "something do ing ". There was.
Taking the ball from the kick-off, the Maroon and Gold eleven drove strai ght down th e
field with Kirker plunging and Jones passing
till a thirty yard pass was uncorked and
"Tarn " Kirker , who stood over the goal line,
tete a tete with one of our ends, took it in.
Shippensburg, who had been fighting straight
bucks through guard and off-tackle seemed
totally unprepared for a long pass and had
left themselves open for the long aerial score.
Swmehart drew out of tackle position to
kick but the wind broke against him and carried the ball to the right of the goal posts.
Again the home team received the kick-off ,
but after several penalties for incomplete
passes, kicked neatly to Shippensburg's thirtynine yard line.
The team fro m Cumberland Valley put the
ball into play and succeeded in making their
fourth and last first-down of the game.
Shortly Shippensburg was again forced to
punt. The ball rolled over Bloomsburg 's line
and went into play on our own twenty-yard
line.
Captain Kraynack called his men into the
"huddle" and then started a march down the
field that Bloom fans shall not forget. Practically every play lessened the distance to the
goal line. Mowrer grabbed a neat pass and
was taken out on our opponents twenty-nine
yard line, shortly after "Red" Creasy scooped
one in and carried it within two yards of the
goal.
Shippensburg held until Kraynack got
through on the third down and placed the ball
over the line. Swinehart again dropped back
for the drop-kick. However, he cleverly faked and shot a pass to Jones, who was free
over the goal line.
Shippensburg lined up to receive the kick,
but lost their advantage when they fumbled
on their first scrimmage and Jap Fritz surrounded the ball. Bloomsburg gained two
first downs and an incompleted pass dropped
over the goal line as the referee's whistle announced the close of the game.
Bloomsburg's cheering section was fine. A
crowd of girls even got up a toy band to speed
the team to victory, and the attitude of th e
entire mass of rooters seemed to be, "Go to
it boys. We're with you, win or lo.se."

Once there was a little pig whose father
said , "If you clean the yard I will give you
ten cents. "
So the little pig cleaned the yard. He
wanted a red ribbon on his tail , and when
his father paid him the little pig went to market and bought some ribbon. He even asked the store keeper to tie it on.
When he started home it began to rain and
the rain got in his eyes. The rain made a
mud puddle and he fell into the mud puddle.
When he got home his mother had to put
clean things on him and she never let that
little pig go to the store again.

The other two games will be played Friday the 26th.
The teams that have not lost a game thus
far are C. McEneany 's, E. Young 's and R.
Sonner 's.
E. Young 's team is showing up fine. On
team 10, Sara Welliver playing at right inside is doing fine work. Team 10 made 3
goals that could not be counted, because some
of the players were off sides.
The teams are having quite a great deal
of trouble with the ruts at the one goal. The
ruts have not been filled in properly. Outside of t h at t h e fi eld is in bette r conditio n
this year than it has been in many years.
The enthusiasm this year is great. Many
persons are found on the side lines watching
the games.
o
"Dinny " Thomas' hand , which was seriously injured in the game with Shippensburg, is
steadily improving. Everyone hopes that
"Dinny " will be back in the game soon.
Dean Koch , with Mrs. Koch, and son Joey
attended the home-coming game at Bucknell,
his Alma Mater, last Saturday.
James Joseph Johns went to Scranton over
the week end to get a hair cut. Even a freshman should think of a better one than that.
Joe Slovianski and Steve Waurin had a box
of fresh fruit Sunday. Yes, had—past tense.
A great number of the fellows left for a
week end visit. They certainly had fine weather in which to enjoy it.
Wilbur Fisher and Ralph Davies entertained visitors here Saturday night.
Philip Kester, a former Bloomsburg man
who is now attending Penn State, was warmly greeted by his friends here on Saturday.
The Party in Frank Perch 's room on Monday night broke up at eleven o'clock. Everyone was enjoy ing himself and it would have
lasted longer were it not for the fact that the
eats gave out at that time.

He was excommunicated by a bull.

What were the results of the War of 1812?

established church. "
