The spirit of Christmastide is rapidly invading the hearts and minds of
the students of B. S. T. C. Three interesting services appropriate to the
Christmastide will be held Christmas
week under the joint direction of the
Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A.
The first of these meetings will b-e
held at 1:00 o'clock Sunday afternoon in the auditorium. Of special
inter-est will be the motion p icture ,
"Jesus of Nazareth ," because we will
soon celebrate the day of his birth ,
and also because of the splendid
talks we have been privileged to hear
on the Passion Play given this year at
Oberammergau ,
Bavaria.
Group
singing* will also be a feature of the
meeting.
On S u n d a y evening after supper
the college students will sing carols
in the lobby.
The third service will be held at
(5:.'10 o'clock in the auditorium on the
morning the Christmas vacation begins. Carol singing will form a bi g
part of this service , b u t other n u m bers will be on the program.
On Monday, December 22 , the students will enjoy the a n n u a l College
Christmas Dinner. The faculty will
be guests at the Dinner. A special
progra m of music , f e a t u r i n g the
Men 's Glee Club , has been arranged
f or this time.
Following th is pro- ,
gram , d a n c i n g will be held in the gym
to music furnished by the Maroon

The Yuletide spirit is also manifest in the town of B loomsburg. This
year the Christmas decorations in the
town ar e so o u t s t a nd i ng t h a t they are
attracting a t t e n t i o n beyond the imm ediate' vicinity.
The decorations on the Square

T he first , o n Alaska , was given by
Mildre d Busch. She showed to the
club a reel of film picturing that terri tory, which gav e an idea of the land
forms , glaciers, occupations and people. She showed how gold is extracted fro m the quartz. A number oi*
scen es sho w ed how t he salmon are
caugh t and canned ; how the seals
live and are pro tected by the government and how the whaling industry is
carrie d on. Her last pictures showed
some t hing of t he social life of the
people and the work of the govern ment schools.
Alfred Vandling gave a talk on
J udea and J er us a le m , centering his
dis cussion chiefly about Bethlehem ,
a small town in Judea where Christ
was bor n. The town has a population
of six thousand people. The inhabitants are very energetic and industri o us , d espite the popular belief to
the con trary.
Mr. Vandling explained many of
the social customs and occupations of
th e people. Bethlehem has changed
much since the first Christmas. The
wealthiest of the people now ride hi
automobiles instead of on camels.
Each week the Geographic Society
enjoys one or more talks by -its
members.

The club is purely an extra-curricular activity which meets from 3 :^,0

its membership to 28 girls.
Mrs. SutlifT , t he sp on sor , has announced that the club will place four

The spirit of Christmastide is rapidly invading the hearts and minds of
the students of B. S. T. C. Three interesting services appropriate to the
Christmastide will be held Christmas
week under the joint direction of the
Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A.
The first of these meetings will b-e
held at 1:00 o'clock Sunday afternoon in the auditorium. Of special
inter-est will be the motion p icture ,
"Jesus of Nazareth ," because we will
soon celebrate the day of his birth ,
and also because of the splendid
talks we have been privileged to hear
on the Passion Play given this year at
Oberammergau ,
Bavaria.
Group
singing* will also be a feature of the
meeting.
On S u n d a y evening after supper
the college students will sing carols
in the lobby.
The third service will be held at
(5:.'10 o'clock in the auditorium on the
morning the Christmas vacation begins. Carol singing will form a bi g
part of this service , b u t other n u m bers will be on the program.
On Monday, December 22 , the students will enjoy the a n n u a l College
Christmas Dinner. The faculty will
be guests at the Dinner. A special
progra m of music , f e a t u r i n g the
Men 's Glee Club , has been arranged
f or this time.
Following th is pro- ,
gram , d a n c i n g will be held in the gym
to music furnished by the Maroon

The Yuletide spirit is also manifest in the town of B loomsburg. This
year the Christmas decorations in the
town ar e so o u t s t a nd i ng t h a t they are
attracting a t t e n t i o n beyond the imm ediate' vicinity.
The decorations on the Square

T hi s we e k th e G eographi c Socie t y
enjoyed two very interesting talks.
T he first , o n Alaska , was given by
Mildre d Busch. She showed to the
club a reel of film picturing that terri tory, which gav e an idea of the land
forms , glaciers, occupations and people. She showed how gold is extracted fro m the quartz. A number oi*
scen es sho w ed how t he salmon are
caugh t and canned ; how the seals
live and are pro tected by the government and how the whaling industry is
carrie d on. Her last pictures showed
some t hing of t he social life of the
people and the work of the govern ment schools.
Alfred Vandling gave a talk on
J udea and J er us a le m , centering his
dis cussion chiefly about Bethlehem ,
a small town in Judea where Christ
was bor n. The town has a population
of six thousand people. The inhabitants are very energetic and industri o us , d espite the popular belief to
the con trary.
Mr. Vandling explained many of
the social customs and occupations of
th e people. Bethlehem has changed
much since the first Christmas. The
wealthiest of the people now ride hi
automobiles instead of on camels.
Each week the Geographic Society
enjoys one or more talks by -its
members.

organized ea rly this fall as an outing
club. Its membership at that time
consis ted of 75 g irls ; i t s obj ec t w as
to encourage hiking and all other
out-door sports.
The club is purely an extra-curricular activity which meets from 3 :^,0
to 4:10 on Thursday during the regular activity period and Ruth Jones ,
who is a very capable president , presides at the meetings. Because of
the nature of the activities and the
number of girls to be accommodated
in one period , the club has cut down
its membership to 28 girls.
Mrs. SutlifT , t he sp on sor , has announced that the club will place four
basketball teams in the Freshman

and two "B" teams and should do

DRAMATI C CLUB
The Dramatic Club , sponsored by
Miss Alice Johnston , meets every
Tuesday evening in the Auditorium.
A short play is presente d at each
meeting and then criticise d by the
members. The schedule for each
semester is so arranged that every
member of the organization appears
at least once in a play. The club
serves as an outlet for dramatic talent and helps to develop students
along this line. New members are
taken in each semester , provided they
pass a tryout test given by the club.
The Dramatic Club officers are :
