Dr. Henry Klonower of State
Dept. Issues Statement
On Program
The quality of the men and women
who make up the citizenship of Pennsylvania is dependent largely upon
the habits, attitudes, and ideals which
are acquired in the early formative
period of their characters. Such habits, attitudes, ideals, and character
are all definitely related to the type
of education which they receive in
the public schools. This education
in turn is dependent on the character
and intelligence of the teachers in
these schools. In other words, effective instructional service in the public
schools is basic to all school achievement and to ultimate life efficiency.
All the available facts indicate an
improved teacher personnel in the
public schools of Pennsylvania. This
improvement is demonstrated not
only in better academic and professional background of the teachers
but also in the larger breadth of
vision acquired through social education , more travel experience and
extended college attendance.
Providing necessary library, laboratory, classroom, assembly, health education facilities, together with adequate recreational opportunities, is
as essential to the education of teachers as it is for the education of doctors, or the preparation of competent
engineers. Through much needed
grants of money made by the General
State Authori ty, rehabilitation of the
State Teachers Colleges in Pennsylvania will be brought about in part
before the conclusion of this college
term. The need for modernizing the
physical plants so as to remove fire,
panic, and health hazards was imperative.
During the past twenty years little
provision has been made to permit
the State Teachers Colleges to replace obsolete buildings which in
man y in stances are old, outworn, unsuitable, an d even d an ger ous , or to
provide essential facilities for a modern teacher education program.
The development of proper facilit ies through the construction^ program of the General State Authority
at the State Teachers Colleges should
not be i nter preted as an exp ansion
program because the buildings which
are b ein g erecte d at these coll eges
will not Increase their student capacity. The completed program will
provide at some of the State-owned
i nstitutions li braries, d ormitor i es, demonstration-laboratory
s ch o o l s ,
health education facilities , auditori ums , and recitation buildings.

About Library Books
When this reporter received his
assignment from the editor, it read
thus: "Ferret out some unusual information that may prove interesting
to the freshmen. Get something with
an unusual angle."
Well, to a college student, interesting information usually consists of
addresses, or telephone numbers. But
where would be the interesting angle? (If there were one I'd keep it
myself , anyhow) .
The Y. W.. C. .A. and . the Y. M. .C.

T. P. North , in charge of the orientation program at the college, opened
the program and was followed by
Ray McBride of the student government at B. S. T. C. The program
continued with the singing of the
"Color Song", after which the Dean
of Men, Koch, spoke on class loyalty
and extra-curricuiar activities. James
Daily and Bill Hagenbuch of Bloomsburg presented an old-fashioned bicycle skit, and the boys of North
Hall put on a Freshman act. Games
and roll call by counties concluded
the program. David Nelson, Hazelton, finis h ed fi rst in t h e ana grams,

The Handbook
To the average "Frosh" a handbook
becomes a combined directory, telephone book, condensed college catalogue, day-by-day reference book, and
date-guide. Most of the information
he needs about his new "home" he
can find in his handbook—if he looks
it up. To all collegians, not only
Freshmen , a handbook is as essential
as a textbook in a physics course.
Some of the essentials found in
the B. S. T. C. Handbook are: a regular calendar indicating twelve months
of the year beginning with September
%vhen the handbook is published.
Constantly, college students have to
check dates ahead, for week-ends
at home, dances, football games, registration dates, vacation periods, and
regularly scheduled events on the
campus.
In the handbook will be found a
map of the college ground to help
reduce as much as possible the complexity of the buildings for the
"Frosh."
Since the handbook committee constructed the handbook with the "incoming Freshman " in m ind , most of
its contents are mainly for him. It
includes the college songs, a short
history of the college and buildings.
Additional data includes customs, student-government rules, and dormitory
regulations.
There is a short writeup of all
fraternities, clubs, and other campus
organizations. These will aid the
"Frosh" in understanding their purpose and aims. There is a department that will give the sport-minded
"Frosh" information on the history
and schedule of B. S. T. C. sport activities.
There is a "Who 's Wh o" department of the faculty and student ofilcers which will help give the "Frosh"
an idea of who would be helpful to
him in various scholastic departments
or extra-curricular activities.
If this description doesn't help the
"Frosh" find what ho wants, ho
should turn to the index in the back
of the handbook—it may help him.
That's why an index is included , although many never discover it.
Alpha and Omega
The beginning nnd the end.
And in this school yonr we see both
represented, We see the ending of
one hundred years of education at
this institution founded in 1839. The
curtain is being rung down on a
century which each year has sent
out Into the world a group of men
and women better equipped to meet,
and help others meet, the vicissitudes
and situations which life has to offer.
These last hundrod years have been
years of progress—each one a stepping stone to something better the
next. Each succeeding school profited by the mistakes of the preced-
Personalit y
Through Jill Edward's pointers on
"personality" we have come to suspect that "charm" is a synony mous
term in all of its connotations. Outward charm is the personality that
appeals to the eye in a ready smile,
a quick sympathy, a happy outlook,
consideration for others, forgetf ulness
of oneself. It is the personality that
appeals to the eye in tasteful dress,
natural ease, graceful gesture and a
well-modulated voice.
The real secret of a charming personality is interest in others. To be
interested in others more than in
one 's self is to exercise tact , that
exquisite faculty of saying and doing
the right thing, of instinctively avoiding the word or act that will cause
another even slight embarrassment.
Do you speak clearly and distinctly,
or are people continually asking you
to repeat ? Can you look a stranger
in the eye when you shake hands ?
Are you absolutely immaculate, regardless of the smartness of your
clothes ? Do you have a fresh , broad ,
unprej udiced outlook on life ?
If you cannot truthfully answer
these questions in the affirmative , you
need to do something to add to your
social security.
Let's make personality personal.
Jill Edwards Talks Purloined Letter
On "Personality"
B. S. T. C.
Miss Jill Edwards, the guest of our
college on Oct. 7, received a very
enthusiastic welcome from the studen t body. Miss Edwards was guest
speaker at the morning assembly and
conducted group discussions in the
afternoon , the men meeting her at
t wo o'clock , and the women at three.
Personal interviews followed these
discussions, which concerned matters
of personality and etiquette.
The Joy of Pictures
Dr. Carlton Palmer, in his address
in chapel, spoke of the joy to be
obtained from pictures. The only
stipulation is that we see the picture
in the right way, and try to get the
most good out of it. We should be
interested in anything that gives us
joy or happiness in life. Life itself
is a picture. How fortunate the
graduating class that selected as its
motto , "Life is a picture; pain t it
well." Life indeed is a picture, and
each of us an individual painter—
some of us artists, some mere amateurs ; some painting with masterful
strokes, carefu l and critical , others
just daubing away in an effort to
fin ish , not considering the final results. Yes , life is a picture, with
many differences and shadings. The
very fact that life is a picture suggests that we may obtain much joy
and happiness from it , provided , of
course, that we 'see it in the right
ligh t , and try to get the most good
out of it.' Certainly there is much
joy there for life is the greatest
picture of all. In it is more variety
in shading, in subje ct , and in hidden
meaning than any master could ever
produce. And so, let us get our 'joy
from pictures'.
Hallowe 'en Dance
To Be Post poned
Because the date of the Homecoming Dance this year coincides with
that usually reserved for the Hallowe'en Dance, the Student Council
decided at Its last meeting that the
Hallowe'en Dance will bo held at a
later date In the form of a Masquerade Ball. All arrangements are
not yet complete but will be published
in a later issue.
ing one. And so wo come to this
year which marks the end of that
century, and the dawn of a new one.
And in the dawn is silhouettod the
class to which this year represents
the beginning—the freshman class.
To them this year Is significant In
that it is the beginning of things better for them, They are endeavoring
to rise above the common things, to
better fit themselves to livo. And in
this endoayor , this boglnnlng, may wo
see foundations built for another century oh full of service and good as
has boon tho past.

Oct ober 12, 1938
You'll have to pardon me for
not writing sooner, but I've been
so busy I haven't had time to
write. You know how it is.
Here I am, back for another
term. It's a shame that you graduated , because there's so many
new things being started. It is
much worse than last year, but
it is more exciting and promising.
Remember how the new gym
and jun ior high school were just
being started— mere holes in the
ground ? And the piles of bricks
and steel girders ? Well, you
should see it now. Both the
buildings are almost completed
on the outside. Of course, the
inside is yet to be finished, but
one can see how things will look
when everything is finished.
Remember, too , how bea uti'
ful the campus was last year ?
Well, you should see it now. The
steam shovel has been digging a
big 'trench' from Science Hall up
to the new buildings, and the
grass is all torn up, and covered
with huge piles of dift. Classes
in Science Hall are sometimes
disturbed by the noise of drills,
and the steam shovel, but everything considered, it is going to
be well worth the trouble.
Of course, the new buildings
won 't be ready for use until September, 1939 , probably, but I can
just picture myself diving into
that swimming pool in the bottom of the gym. I'm certainly
glad that I have a year to go
yet. I suppose you wish you
did , too.
Come down to see me soon.
Make it the week-end of Homecoming, which is October 29, then
we can have a sort of reunion.
Lots of the gang who graduated
are coming back. I'll bet they 'll
all be surprised to see how fast
the buildings are going up. It
sure —
Ooo, there goes the bell! I
have to go to Lit class, and I'm
not prepared. Write soon, Mae.

Jill Edwards
Most of us take it for granted that
personality is a special trait on which
people more fortunate have a monopoly, which we were born without,
and which we must live without. Jill
Edwards proved we are wrong. A
well-rounded personality is within the
reach of all of us, if we use the abilities which each of us possess. Miss
Edwards' creed of daily luty for us
to follow in contributing our share
toward the progress of mankind is
summed up very nicely under seven
points , which can be found in the
book, Personality Pointers, Miss Edwards' own book. A copy of this
book was left in the Dean of Women 's office , and is available to those
interested. Jill Edwards is herself
a most persuasive example of her
methods for developing personality,
and it is the hope of the student
body that she will return to our the first twenty, "Northwest Pascampus in the near future.

others.
For the month of September the
six leading books, three of fiction and
three non-fiction , wore as follows:
Fiction: My Son, My Son—By
Howard Spring; The Yearling—By
Marjori e Kinan Rawllngs ; Tell of
Time—By Laura Krey.
Non-Fiction: With Malice Toward
Some—By Margaret Halsey ; The
Horse and Buggy Doctor—By Arthur
E. Hertzler; The Importance of Living—By Lin Yutang.
Among the list of forty leading
books of fiction and non-fiction , as
shown by tho Herald Tribune , neither
of the Pulltizer Prize books for 1938
appears. John P. Marquand won
the Pulitizor award in 1938 for his
novel "The Late George Apley." In
the biography field a joint award was
given , The two books are:
Pedlar's Progress—By Odell Shepard ; Andrew Jackson—By Marquis
James.
Tho history award went to Paul
H. Buck for his book "Tho Road to
Rounlon ," which covers the period
1865 to 1900.
"Northwest Passage," by Kenneth
Roberts , published two years ago,
still runs among tho leading books
that the country is reading. Among
BRIEFS
Geoffrey Chaucer, the English Poet,
who was a soldier at the age of 19,
was captured by the French and held
as a prisoner until he was ransomed.
Samuel Pepys' well known diary,
which covers the years from 1660 to
1669, was written in cipher.
Nathaniel Hawthorne read twice
all Sir Walter Scott's novels.
Robert Browning, tho English poet,
told Hawthorne that of all the latter's work he liked beat "The Blithedale Romance."
Hawthorne during his lifetime had
had three political jobs, two of which
he lost through the spoils system,
the other he resigned.
Addison and Stcole renounced their
periodical "The Tatler", and In its
place put out "Tho Spectator ," In
order to avoid politics entirely.
"The Tatler's" firs t Issue was In
April, 1709, followed by three issues
each week for 21 months,
"The Spectator " appeared In March
1711, and ran dally for eleven months.
Its circulation was 2000 copies a
day.
John Milton 's great classical epic,

Again this year we are wondering
if preparations are being made to

And when Miss Jill Edwards facetiously referred to a husband as an

consider him as such.

Speaking of husbands brings to
mind the ten commandments of happy
marriage which I read some years
ago. The decalogue to insure domestic tranquility runs thus:
1. Don't live beyond your income.
2. Respect your partner's individ uality.
3. Take periodic vacations from each
other.
4. Forget the honeymoon complex.
5. Don't sacrifice courtesy to familiarity.
6. Share all responsibility.
7. Don't nurse resentment to avoid
a quarrel.
8. Never try to arouse jealousy.
9. Keep business irritations out of
the home.
:
10. Preserve the glamor of mystery
for each other.
Bear these in mind ye altar-inclined,
...
I don't think many of us realize
the significance of the appointmen t of
Doctor Kehr , our Dean of Women, to
the Board of Directors of the National Student Federation of the United
States of America. This organizat ion , as the name implies, is a national organization , with worldwide associations. The Board of Directors
is composed of thirteen members, nin e
of them with Doctorate degrees. Only
two of the members are women.
In her brief mention of it in chapel,
Dr. Kehr minimized the importance
and the honor of her appointment to
this position. I'm sure we're all
proud of her. The names of the
Board of Directors are printed on
the stationery of the Federation and
when a letter came to us from the
Federation, we saw the names.

Did you note some of the various
effects of Carlton Palmer's talk on
the "Joy of Pictures"? To some it
was a chance to see some pictures,
to others a chance to see some good
pictures, to others it was art , to some
a chance to catch up on sleep, but to
a good many It was a glimpse of the
beauty that lies in art. Can you
remember one of those pictures ?
Polite Pointers
Q. Should a woman who has a college
degree be introduced socially as
"Miss Smith", or "Doctor Smith" ?
A. "Miss Smith", unless her degree
is an M, D,
Q. May a girl give her picture to a
boy in college ?
A. Yes, but don't sign it , because It
will make you a conspicuous personality in his room,
Q. Is it correct at a college dance for
a man to cut In on a girl to whom
ho has not been Introduced?
A. At a fratornlty danco, yes; at a
"Prom ", no.
Q. Is it permissible to speak to a man
whom one moots repeatedly on tho

and the erection of additional facilities increases the opportunity to render a larger service to the public
schools, but the program will not provide additional teachers nor will the
program reduce the cost to students
who are preparing to teach. A large
share of the cost of teacher education
in State Teachers Colleges is borne
by the students themselves. Fees are
prescribed which in some instances
amount to fifty percent of the total
cost. The State does provide the
buildings and the additional revenue
to maintain an adequate program.
The provisions made by the State to
educate such candidates for public
school service must be adequate and
not less effective than that which
private enterprise provides.
Realization of nn Ideal
The building program of the General State Authority is another vigorous step forward in the realization
of a democratic ideal that the education of teachers with adequate facilities In the form of proper demonstration-laboratory schools, aud itoriums, swimming and gymnasium

fraternity, held its first meeting of
this year on Friday evening, Oct. 7,
in the Social Rooms of Science Hall.
Besides tho regular members of tho
fraternity there were some alumni
members, and students not members,
but who are interested In geography.
Tho meeting was both professional
and social. The professional pnrt
consisted of talks by Miss Ruth Dugan , Miss Lillian Yeager, and Dr.
Russell. Later, all present participated In the playing of games, after
which a delicious luncheon was served.
The first regular dinner-meeting of
the College Council was held in the
Social Rooms of Science Hall.
The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved.
Dr. Kuster was present at the
meeting to discuss the matter of the
Homecoming Day Dance and the
Hallowe'en Dance occuring on the
same night. The members of the
council were opposed to this , and
after much discussion it was decided to change the date of the Hallowe'en Dance. A definite date for .
this event has not yet been decided J
upon.
I
Miss Peggy Johnson, chairman of
the social committee, gave a report
on what her committee intended to
do this year. She explained that
there would be little change in the
plans used last year, and also explained that most of the details had
not been taken care of at this early
date.
The Council next approved the budget ' which had been prepared by Dr.
Haas.
Discussion arose concerning the
"Pajam a Parade." No defi nite plans
have yet . been made for an event
to take the place of the "Paj ama
Parade," which , as explained by Dean
Koch, has become a town affair
rather tli-an a strictly school affair.
It was finally decided that this matter
should be settled by the customs committee.
Dean Koch next made a motion
that the president of the Council,
with two other members, propose to
Dr. Haas the plans for an office for
the Council.
The meeting was then adjourned.

On Program
The quality of the men and women
who make up the citizenship of Pennsylvania is dependent largely upon
the habits, attitudes, and ideals which
are acquired in the early formative
period of their characters. Such habits, attitudes, ideals, and character
are all definitely related to the type
of education which they receive in
the public schools. This education
in turn is dependent on the character
and intelligence of the teachers in
these schools. In other words, effective instructional service in the public
schools is basic to all school achievement and to ultimate life efficiency.
All the available facts indicate an
improved teacher personnel in the
public schools of Pennsylvania. This
improvement is demonstrated not
only in better academic and professional background of the teachers
but also in the larger breadth of
vision acquired through social education , more travel experience and
extended college attendance.
Providing necessary library, laboratory, classroom, assembly, health education facilities, together with adequate recreational opportunities, is
as essential to the education of teachers as it is for the education of doctors, or the preparation of competent
engineers. Through much needed
grants of money made by the General
State Authori ty, rehabilitation of the
State Teachers Colleges in Pennsylvania will be brought about in part
before the conclusion of this college
term. The need for modernizing the
physical plants so as to remove fire,
panic, and health hazards was imperative.
During the past twenty years little
provision has been made to permit
the State Teachers Colleges to replace obsolete buildings which in
man y in stances are old, outworn, unsuitable, an d even d an ger ous , or to
provide essential facilities for a modern teacher education program.
The development of proper facilit ies through the construction^ program of the General State Authority
at the State Teachers Colleges should
not be i nter preted as an exp ansion
program because the buildings which
are b ein g erecte d at these coll eges
will not Increase their student capacity. The completed program will

About Library Books
When this reporter received his
assignment from the editor, it read
thus: "Ferret out some unusual information that may prove interesting
to the freshmen. Get something with
an unusual angle."
Well, to a college student, interesting information usually consists of
addresses, or telephone numbers. But
where would be the interesting angle? (If there were one I'd keep it
myself , anyhow) .
The Y. W.. C. .A. and . the Y. M. .C.
A. will have charge of the chapel
hour on Monday, October 17, 1938.
The speaker of the morning will ibe

Page's books which may be purchased
if anyone is interested. The titles of
these books are : "Must We Go To
War?", "Creative Pioneers", and
"Living Courageously".
From 1926 to 1934 • Kirby Page

Program Designed to Help Form
Early Friendships among
Members of Class
At a recent get-together party held
for the 1942 class of Freshmen at the
Bloomsburg State Teachers College,
a program was conducted and designed to make it possible for the
members of the first-year class to
get to know each other better. Dr.
T. P. North , in charge of the orientation program at the college, opened
the program and was followed by
Ray McBride of the student government at B. S. T. C. The program
continued with the singing of the
"Color Song", after which the Dean
of Men, Koch, spoke on class loyalty
and extra-curricuiar activities. James
Daily and Bill Hagenbuch of Bloomsburg presented an old-fashioned bicycle skit, and the boys of North
Hall put on a Freshman act. Games
and roll call by counties concluded
the program. David Nelson, Hazelton, finis h ed fi rst in t h e ana grams,
with Thomas Grow of Ringtown second, an d t hi rd was Lawrence Hol tz

The Handbook
To the average "Frosh" a handbook
becomes a combined directory, telephone book, condensed college catalogue, day-by-day reference book, and
date-guide. Most of the information
he needs about his new "home" he
can find in his handbook—if he looks
it up. To all collegians, not only
Freshmen , a handbook is as essential
as a textbook in a physics course.
Some of the essentials found in
the B. S. T. C. Handbook are: a regular calendar indicating twelve months
of the year beginning with September
%vhen the handbook is published.
Constantly, college students have to
check dates ahead, for week-ends
at home, dances, football games, registration dates, vacation periods, and
regularly scheduled events on the
campus.
In the handbook will be found a
map of the college ground to help
reduce as much as possible the complexity of the buildings for the
"Frosh."
Since the handbook committee constructed the handbook with the "incoming Freshman " in m ind , most of
its contents are mainly for him. It
includes the college songs, a short
history of the college and buildings.
Additional data includes customs, student-government rules, and dormitory
regulations.
There is a short writeup of all
fraternities, clubs, and other campus
organizations. These will aid the
"Frosh" in understanding their purpose and aims. There is a department that will give the sport-minded
"Frosh" information on the history
and schedule of B. S. T. C. sport activities.
There is a "Who 's Wh o" department of the faculty and student ofilcers which will help give the "Frosh"
an idea of who would be helpful to
him in various scholastic departments
or extra-curricular activities.
If this description doesn't help the
"Frosh" find what ho wants, ho
should turn to the index in the back
of the handbook—it may help him.
That's why an index is included , although many never discover it.
Alpha and Omega
The beginning nnd the end.
And in this school yonr we see both
represented, We see the ending of
one hundred years of education at
this institution founded in 1839. The
curtain is being rung down on a
century which each year has sent
out Into the world a group of men
and women better equipped to meet,
and help others meet, the vicissitudes
and situations which life has to offer.
These last hundrod years have been
years of progress—each one a stepping stone to something better the
next. Each succeeding school profited by the mistakes of the preced-
Personalit y
Through Jill Edward's pointers on
"personality" we have come to suspect that "charm" is a synony mous
term in all of its connotations. Outward charm is the personality that
appeals to the eye in a ready smile,
a quick sympathy, a happy outlook,
consideration for others, forgetf ulness
of oneself. It is the personality that
appeals to the eye in tasteful dress,
natural ease, graceful gesture and a
well-modulated voice.
The real secret of a charming personality is interest in others. To be
interested in others more than in
one 's self is to exercise tact , that
exquisite faculty of saying and doing
the right thing, of instinctively avoiding the word or act that will cause
another even slight embarrassment.
Do you speak clearly and distinctly,
or are people continually asking you
to repeat ? Can you look a stranger
in the eye when you shake hands ?
Are you absolutely immaculate, regardless of the smartness of your
clothes ? Do you have a fresh , broad ,
unprej udiced outlook on life ?
If you cannot truthfully answer
these questions in the affirmative , you
need to do something to add to your
social security.
Let's make personality personal.
Jill Edwards Talks Purloined Letter
On "Personality"
B. S. T. C.
Miss Jill Edwards, the guest of our
college on Oct. 7, received a very
enthusiastic welcome from the studen t body. Miss Edwards was guest
speaker at the morning assembly and
conducted group discussions in the
afternoon , the men meeting her at
t wo o'clock , and the women at three.
Personal interviews followed these
discussions, which concerned matters
of personality and etiquette.
The Joy of Pictures
Dr. Carlton Palmer, in his address
in chapel, spoke of the joy to be
obtained from pictures. The only
stipulation is that we see the picture
in the right way, and try to get the
most good out of it. We should be
interested in anything that gives us
joy or happiness in life. Life itself
is a picture. How fortunate the
graduating class that selected as its
motto , "Life is a picture; pain t it
well." Life indeed is a picture, and
each of us an individual painter—
some of us artists, some mere amateurs ; some painting with masterful
strokes, carefu l and critical , others
just daubing away in an effort to
fin ish , not considering the final results. Yes , life is a picture, with
many differences and shadings. The
very fact that life is a picture suggests that we may obtain much joy
and happiness from it , provided , of
course, that we 'see it in the right
ligh t , and try to get the most good
out of it.' Certainly there is much
joy there for life is the greatest
picture of all. In it is more variety
in shading, in subje ct , and in hidden
meaning than any master could ever
produce. And so, let us get our 'joy
from pictures'.
Hallowe 'en Dance
To Be Post poned
Because the date of the Homecoming Dance this year coincides with
that usually reserved for the Hallowe'en Dance, the Student Council
decided at Its last meeting that the
Hallowe'en Dance will bo held at a
later date In the form of a Masquerade Ball. All arrangements are
not yet complete but will be published
in a later issue.
ing one. And so wo come to this
year which marks the end of that
century, and the dawn of a new one.
And in the dawn is silhouettod the
class to which this year represents
the beginning—the freshman class.
To them this year Is significant In
that it is the beginning of things better for them, They are endeavoring
to rise above the common things, to
better fit themselves to livo. And in
this endoayor , this boglnnlng, may wo
see foundations built for another century oh full of service and good as
has boon tho past.
Dea r Mae ,
Bloomsburg, Pa.
Oct ober 12, 1938
You'll have to pardon me for
not writing sooner, but I've been
so busy I haven't had time to
write. You know how it is.
Here I am, back for another
term. It's a shame that you graduated , because there's so many
new things being started. It is
much worse than last year, but
it is more exciting and promising.
Remember how the new gym
and jun ior high school were just
being started— mere holes in the
ground ? And the piles of bricks
and steel girders ? Well, you
should see it now. Both the
buildings are almost completed
on the outside. Of course, the
inside is yet to be finished, but
one can see how things will look
when everything is finished.
Remember, too , how bea uti'
ful the campus was last year ?
Well, you should see it now. The
steam shovel has been digging a
big 'trench' from Science Hall up
to the new buildings, and the
grass is all torn up, and covered
with huge piles of dift. Classes
in Science Hall are sometimes
disturbed by the noise of drills,
and the steam shovel, but everything considered, it is going to
be well worth the trouble.
Of course, the new buildings
won 't be ready for use until September, 1939 , probably, but I can
just picture myself diving into
that swimming pool in the bottom of the gym. I'm certainly
glad that I have a year to go
yet. I suppose you wish you
did , too.
Come down to see me soon.
Make it the week-end of Homecoming, which is October 29, then
we can have a sort of reunion.
Lots of the gang who graduated
are coming back. I'll bet they 'll
all be surprised to see how fast
the buildings are going up. It
sure —
Ooo, there goes the bell! I
have to go to Lit class, and I'm
not prepared. Write soon, Mae.

Jill Edwards
Most of us take it for granted that
personality is a special trait on which
people more fortunate have a monopoly, which we were born without,
and which we must live without. Jill
Edwards proved we are wrong. A
well-rounded personality is within the
reach of all of us, if we use the abilities which each of us possess. Miss
Edwards' creed of daily luty for us
to follow in contributing our share
toward the progress of mankind is
summed up very nicely under seven
points , which can be found in the
book, Personality Pointers, Miss Edwards' own book. A copy of this
book was left in the Dean of Women 's office , and is available to those
interested. Jill Edwards is herself
a most persuasive example of her
methods for developing personality,
and it is the hope of the student
body that she will return to our the first twenty, "Northwest Pascampus in the near future.

on the market longer than any of the
Books & Authors
others.
For the month of September the
six leading books, three of fiction and
three non-fiction , wore as follows:
Fiction: My Son, My Son—By
Howard Spring; The Yearling—By
Marjori e Kinan Rawllngs ; Tell of
Time—By Laura Krey.
Non-Fiction: With Malice Toward
Some—By Margaret Halsey ; The
Horse and Buggy Doctor—By Arthur
E. Hertzler; The Importance of Living—By Lin Yutang.
Among the list of forty leading
books of fiction and non-fiction , as
shown by tho Herald Tribune , neither
of the Pulltizer Prize books for 1938
appears. John P. Marquand won
the Pulitizor award in 1938 for his
novel "The Late George Apley." In
the biography field a joint award was
given , The two books are:
Pedlar's Progress—By Odell Shepard ; Andrew Jackson—By Marquis
James.
Tho history award went to Paul
H. Buck for his book "Tho Road to
Rounlon ," which covers the period
1865 to 1900.
"Northwest Passage," by Kenneth
Roberts , published two years ago,
still runs among tho leading books
that the country is reading. Among
BRIEFS
Geoffrey Chaucer, the English Poet,
who was a soldier at the age of 19,
was captured by the French and held
as a prisoner until he was ransomed.
Samuel Pepys' well known diary,
which covers the years from 1660 to
1669, was written in cipher.
Nathaniel Hawthorne read twice
all Sir Walter Scott's novels.
Robert Browning, tho English poet,
told Hawthorne that of all the latter's work he liked beat "The Blithedale Romance."
Hawthorne during his lifetime had
had three political jobs, two of which
he lost through the spoils system,
the other he resigned.
Addison and Stcole renounced their
periodical "The Tatler", and In its
place put out "Tho Spectator ," In
order to avoid politics entirely.
"The Tatler's" firs t Issue was In
April, 1709, followed by three issues
each week for 21 months,
"The Spectator " appeared In March
1711, and ran dally for eleven months.
Its circulation was 2000 copies a
day.
John Milton 's great classical epic,
Paradlso Lost, was firs t intended as a
drama.

Again this year we are wondering
if preparations are being made to
'fi x' the weather for Homecoming
Day.
And when Miss Jill Edwards facetiously referred to a husband as an
accessory, it made me wonder if perhaps the woman of today doesn't
consider him as such.

Speaking of husbands brings to
mind the ten commandments of happy
marriage which I read some years
ago. The decalogue to insure domestic tranquility runs thus:
1. Don't live beyond your income.
2. Respect your partner's individ uality.
3. Take periodic vacations from each
other.
4. Forget the honeymoon complex.
5. Don't sacrifice courtesy to familiarity.
6. Share all responsibility.
7. Don't nurse resentment to avoid
a quarrel.
8. Never try to arouse jealousy.
9. Keep business irritations out of
the home.
:
10. Preserve the glamor of mystery
for each other.
Bear these in mind ye altar-inclined,
...
I don't think many of us realize
the significance of the appointmen t of
Doctor Kehr , our Dean of Women, to
the Board of Directors of the National Student Federation of the United
States of America. This organizat ion , as the name implies, is a national organization , with worldwide associations. The Board of Directors
is composed of thirteen members, nin e
of them with Doctorate degrees. Only
two of the members are women.
In her brief mention of it in chapel,
Dr. Kehr minimized the importance
and the honor of her appointment to
this position. I'm sure we're all
proud of her. The names of the
Board of Directors are printed on
the stationery of the Federation and
when a letter came to us from the
Federation, we saw the names.

Did you note some of the various
effects of Carlton Palmer's talk on
the "Joy of Pictures"? To some it
was a chance to see some pictures,
to others a chance to see some good
pictures, to others it was art , to some
a chance to catch up on sleep, but to
a good many It was a glimpse of the
beauty that lies in art. Can you
remember one of those pictures ?
Polite Pointers
Q. Should a woman who has a college
degree be introduced socially as
"Miss Smith", or "Doctor Smith" ?
A. "Miss Smith", unless her degree
is an M, D,
Q. May a girl give her picture to a
boy in college ?
A. Yes, but don't sign it , because It
will make you a conspicuous personality in his room,
Q. Is it correct at a college dance for
a man to cut In on a girl to whom
ho has not been Introduced?
A. At a fratornlty danco, yes; at a
"Prom ", no.
Q. Is it permissible to speak to a man
whom one moots repeatedly on tho
cumpus , and who Is a member of

and the erection of additional facilities increases the opportunity to render a larger service to the public
schools, but the program will not provide additional teachers nor will the
program reduce the cost to students
who are preparing to teach. A large
share of the cost of teacher education
in State Teachers Colleges is borne
by the students themselves. Fees are
prescribed which in some instances
amount to fifty percent of the total
cost. The State does provide the
buildings and the additional revenue
to maintain an adequate program.
The provisions made by the State to
educate such candidates for public
school service must be adequate and
not less effective than that which
private enterprise provides.
Realization of nn Ideal
The building program of the General State Authority is another vigorous step forward in the realization
of a democratic ideal that the education of teachers with adequate facilities In the form of proper demonstration-laboratory schools, aud itoriums, swimming and gymnasium

program is one of Increasing the

fraternity, held its first meeting of
this year on Friday evening, Oct. 7,
in the Social Rooms of Science Hall.
Besides tho regular members of tho
fraternity there were some alumni
members, and students not members,
but who are interested In geography.
Tho meeting was both professional
and social. The professional pnrt
consisted of talks by Miss Ruth Dugan , Miss Lillian Yeager, and Dr.
Russell. Later, all present participated In the playing of games, after
which a delicious luncheon was served.
The first regular dinner-meeting of
the College Council was held in the
Social Rooms of Science Hall.
The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved.
Dr. Kuster was present at the
meeting to discuss the matter of the
Homecoming Day Dance and the
Hallowe'en Dance occuring on the
same night. The members of the
council were opposed to this , and
after much discussion it was decided to change the date of the Hallowe'en Dance. A definite date for .
this event has not yet been decided J
upon.
I
Miss Peggy Johnson, chairman of
the social committee, gave a report
on what her committee intended to
do this year. She explained that
there would be little change in the
plans used last year, and also explained that most of the details had
not been taken care of at this early
date.
The Council next approved the budget ' which had been prepared by Dr.
Haas.
Discussion arose concerning the
"Pajam a Parade." No defi nite plans
have yet . been made for an event
to take the place of the "Paj ama
Parade," which , as explained by Dean
Koch, has become a town affair
rather tli-an a strictly school affair.
It was finally decided that this matter
should be settled by the customs committee.
Dean Koch next made a motion
that the president of the Council,
with two other members, propose to
Dr. Haas the plans for an office for
the Council.
The meeting was then adjourned.
