STUDENTS FORCE DOWN DOOR JN ENTHUSIASTIC EFFORT TO ET TO MEET NEW CLASS TEACHERS.—News Item, Although some of our Profs lead a fast life, we can't help wondering if they'll pass all of us in the grand 'finish. Other Artists Are Elly Ney, Pianist, Elschuco Trio; And Ponselle, A Great Soprano. : The above is a striking likeness, as you must have already guessed, of little Matilda Quackenbush, at the age of 7, or it might have been 17, years of age. The picture was taken just after she had been clandestinely learning to.say, "goo:goo" and ~da-da." V A study of her case is being made i gt;y bur Mr. Kolstad and our own Dr. Salisbury. It is probable, too, : that Art Brisbane will give her a paragraph or two some day. Who knows? Do you? Do we? - •'.'•; Just behind'little Matilda Quack-jsrilog you will see a brazen group of three or four of her pals—just good, clean, wholesome girls. Fine, ruddy home-girls, you know. The gay, innocent throng consists largely of Olive Hardan, the dreamer; also Rin- Tin-Tin's sister (you remember her, ibld-timers; Miss Jones, there playfully poking Mr. Smith's umbrella in Olive's eye—she must have her little joke; Elsie Smith; Corona Underwood, her sister; and two other girls t o the left. In an interview, little Matilda Quackenstump, no longer a little girl with long curls and • dresses, - mind you, sat on the Cedar Chips re- ; porter's,: knee and poured forth her story.-; This is to be shamelessly exposed to the clamoring public next week.

He Plans for the Musical Artists' Course, to ^be presented by the Bel-lingham Women's Music Club and the Bellingham State Normal School have been completed and five great musical treats are in store for the city during the season 1926-1927. With the Russian Symphonic Choir scheduled to appear late in November; Reinald Werrenrath, baritone, and Elly Ney, pianist, due in January; The Elschuco trio and Rosa Pon-selle, dramatic soprano, who will be presented in March, the music lovers of Bellingham are assured an unsurpassable program. The Russian Symphonic Choir is a body of solo singers, joined together under the able leadership of a master musician, Basile Kibalchich, director. The choir consists of twenty-two voices, eleven of whom are men and eleven women. The Choir represents a new form of vocal ensemble. The director has taken the symphony orchestra as a model and has given each voice, of the choir . the same value as each instrument has in the modern orchestra. - ' - • • - / Rienald Werrenrath who will sing in January, is the foremost American baritone of today and one of the most popular singersr this country has ever had. Elly Ney is regarded by many critics as Europe's greatest woman pianist. •"/She possesses a magnetic personality and has a unique reputation of winning an audience with her playing. The Elschuco Trio, from New York City, Js composed of William Kroll, violinist; William Willeke, 'cellist'; and Aurelio Giorni, pianist. Each member of the trio is an artist in his own right, and their combined performance; is given with unusual skill and beauty. They will give a concert of supreme merit. Rosa Ponselle, dramatic soprano, is a singer at the Metropolitan Opera House, New York City. " She is of American birth and Italian blood, a combination" which has resulted, in producing a remarkable singer. She possesses one of the greatest soprano voices to be heard today. A season ticket for this artist series of five concerts sells for six dollars. Admission to single concerts will be $1.50, except in the case of the Russian Symphonic Choir and Rosa Ponselle, which will be $2.00. Since the seating capacity of the auditorium is limited, there will be only a few seats available for single concerts Those desiring to attend are urged to reserve their tickets-at once.

New Instructors In; Music, Physical Ed. And Social Science. New Blue Books Show Improvements After Revisions by Committee During the summer quarter a complete revision of the old blue book was made. Under the direction of Lloyd Mabon. the old book has resulted in a finished product known as the "New Blue Book." These little books are to be used by all students, when .they are in doubt as to what they should do concerning a certain subject. Difficulties with; any other situation about school life will be cleared up if the Blue Book is consulted. The new books are absolutely up-to- date in all- their material. The amended by-laws to the constitution- have been recorded, the complete school calendar is at the hand of all students. The school curriculum, and names of all teachers in the employ of the Normal school given with their respective subjects are found in the Blue Book. ' As an added feature to the New Blue Book, this year, blank pages have been left to be used for the enrollment schedule. This enables a student to carry his program right along, with him. If every student has not acquired a Blue, Book he should do so for his welfare. They can be obtained in the Students' Association room;on the second floor at any time.

Theodore Cederberg, Avho has had considerable experience in; journalistic work, will act as Associate Editor of the Weekly Messenger this quarter. Theodore was a star reporter last quarter. During the last half of the summer session Cederberg invented and published a column known as "Merry-Go-Round." He will continue to write the column on the first page this quarter. With his previous experience, Cederberg should come well qualified for his new position and should find very little difficulty in executing the duties of his office. Olive Hardan, who has been connected with our weekly publication for some time, has been appointed to act as society editor. With her intimate acquaintance with all. club officers, Olive should be able to handle her work efficiently. She_is also president of the Inter-Club Council. Robert Wagner and Robert Fisher will again take the positions of sports associates. The two "Bobs" worked well last summer as sport editors. With added experience, the students will undoubtedly edit a better and more popular sport section than ever before. Herbert E. Fowler will act as Faculty Advisor of the Weekly Messenger for the year. Mr. Fowler has had a wide and varied range of experience in journalistic work. His well seasoned newspaper tactics should prove to be a material help in publishing a better and more up-to-date college newspaper. The staff extends to Mr. Fowler a hearty welcome. TRAINING SCHOOL IN Worthwhileness of an Early Acquaintance with Pupils Thought Very Important FRESHMEN, WE GREET YOU ! ! You are now embarking upon the most eventful adventure of your life. We hope that you will find this intellectual sanctuary an ideal and wholesome habitat where you will be able to further your intellectual and aesthetic appreciations and interests. If you do not become the football hero on October 9, the day of our,first gridiron encounter, don't become sullen and discouraged. If you do not become a candidate for Women's League president within the next'month, ladies, don't become discouraged. Ladies and gentlemen of the beginning class, you will have opportunity to display your school spirit next Saturday. Yea, verily! You may smear it all over the place. To those of you who have decided to make a name for yourself in extra-curricular activities, remember that others are opposing you. You may tell us how you can perform. We want you for what you are, not how you are. It is only with hard persistent effort that you can reach your goal. . If it incidentally occurs to you that it would be profitable affiliate yourself with a club or two, don't become paralyzed. Remember that you can become a part of this institution only when you enter whole heartedly into the activities of the institution. Come on half way and display your mettle. Be sure to attend the first football game October 9th. We extend to you a most whole-hearted welcome to our institution and everything that is connected with it. —— o STUDY REGULARLY. " H o n e s t l y , you know, if I studied one-fourth as much around the first of the quarter as I did these last two weeks, I'd have had all A's and B's." Unofficial statistics would reveal that 847 of the summer students uttered words to that effect. And when a refrain like that is flung to every corner, of the corridors and the vigor of utterance bends every leaf of dandelion on the campus, it makes one wonder if it really could be true. - : . ' - ^ , • • ••• . . . . •••. • But three chances a year are tendered the most of us to actually try this out. The effort, not made through long nocturnal cramming but rather through regular periods of programming one's work and play, like the measured training of a grid player, is almost worth the trial. It's worth the trial if only to prove or disprove a statement made by thousands for many college generations. ^ ^If, in these halcyon days of the aftermath of a glamorous ; sumaner, there is still a pint or two of sporting blood racing ^ddeningj^r through you, try to see if by dissipating qne- |fbur^hy or was it one^hird, of, the last of the quarter's work, it § mikes anydifference when you bpen^ a eertam letter? addres fd The Training School has been in session for three weeks, it ; beinj thought worth while for the super visors to get acquainted with their pupils before the opening of the fall quarter Special teachers will begin their work Wednesday, while student teachers will not take up their work iintil later, thus giving them an opportunity to become acquainted with their supervisors and the children before beginning actual work. The Training school is organized on the basis of not only teaching the children, but trying .to understand what the children are learning. Up to this time the grade teachers have been too busy, their work has been too varied and so as to make possible more perfect work and the realization of the aim of Education, Growth, a number of Technique teachers have been added to handle this part of the work. This leaves the grade teachers free to carry on their work of teaching, adn also enables tlie student to get both points of view, that of growth and that of personal contact with the children themselves. The new teachers who are taking charge of this work are Miss Erick-son, Miss Beiswenger and Miss Pragst, each an artist along her own line. Owing to the death of Miss Wallace, seventh grade supervisor, Miss Speiseke has taken charge of this department instead of the Intermediate group. Miss Brown will take her place in the Intermediate department: The training school Messenger staf^ has been organized and as student teachers go into the training school they will find the children well started in their work. Miss McPherson has had ten cadets in rural schools for two weeks and already they have organized and put into practice a fine Health program. In the city schools the number of cadets has been reduced to four, and Miss Dawson, Miss Ragland, and Miss Peterson have been here since the opening of the city schools, clearing the field for student teachers and the years' work. Altogether, we anticipate a very successful and interesting year in our training school and we are very proud of the progress that is being made. : o BOUQUETS (By Madge Boyer) I love to make bouquets.

" '%, November 6 has been set as the date for the annual Viking Homecoming, or Alumni Day. Then hundreds of old grads will return to renew acquaintances, and make new ones. AH students now in school will have ari opportunity to fully enjoy themselves, when a football game with Cheney Normal, a reception, a banquet, and'a dance will take place. These events should help to make November 6 the greatest day of the Fall quarter. The great event of the day will be the game with the Cheney Savages. The Savages have long been keen rivals and strong opponents of the Vikings trample the Savages under foot. From the looks of the Viking baekfield this year, sledding will be more difficult for the Savages on November 6, 1926, than it was in 1925. A reception to the Alumni is scheduled immediately after the game in Edens Hall. A banquet will be given in the evening in the dining room at Edens Hall. , Capping the events of the day will be a dance in the evening for faculty, students, and alumni in the State Armory. o- PLANS MADE FOR 3 NEW TENNIS COURTS VIKINGS PREPARING FOR STATE JUNIOR CONFERENCE PLACE Oppose St. Martin's College in Season's Opening Conetst on Waldo Field, October 9.

T The new courts are to be of concrete, and will be the most up-to-date ones in Northwest Washington wjien completed. Facing northeast and southwest, they will have more fchan the regulation distance at the £ndB, with ten feet between them. Excavating and grading will be accomplished during the next few /weeks, then the earth will be allowed / to settle. Next spring the concrete / will be poured and the courts will then be finished. These new courts will give the Bellingham Normal first class, tennis facilities, relieving the congestion on the three old courts, which have proved insuffi cient for the needs of the school. FOOTBALL SCHEDULE FOR COMING SEASON Ray Odell, crack halfback of Carver's gridiron eleven, has the Normal training school gridders under his tutelage. A fifteen-game football schedule has been drawn up for the Lowell, Normal, Boeder, Franklin, Eureka and Silver Beach grade schools. The season opens October 6 and ends-November 24.. The Normal schedule is as follows: Normal vs. Eureka, Oct. 13. Normal vs.- Franklin, Oct. 22. Normal vs. Lowell, Oct. 27. Normal vs. Boeder, Nov. 12. Normal vs. Silver Beach, Nov. 24.

With four letter-men and a block of former high school stars working out daily, the machine which Coach Sam Carver will build from them should bring back the Tri-Normal championship. The dope sheet indicates a season of highly interesting contests. The six teams on the schedule are all old foes, and the least of them, is capable of giving a real battle. The first mix is due October 9, when St. Martins College furnishes half the entertainment on Waldo Field. The Irishmen always are at their best against the Vikings, and fight to the finish. Last year the Carverites came out on the long end of a 9-0 score. On the following Saturday, Seattle College, another Catholic school, opposes Bellingham ( the game being played here also.) The Collegians ar coached by a- former Notre Dame star and use the famous Notre Dame shift. They always provide an interesting afternoon. With the University of Washington Frosh game, October 23, comes the first major game of the season. This game is played at Seattle. To beat the Frosh is the crowning feat of glory for the Vikings. Last year the team won a thriller 13-6. This year's Frosh team, according to indications, will be the strongest in years, but they have nothing on the locals, Avho intend to turn the trick again this year. The Vikings then journey to Ellensburg for the first game of the Tri-Normal championship series. The Wildcats will be found a much harder nut to crack than in the past few seasons. They have strengthened their coaching staff by the addition of Roy. Sandberg, former We-natchee and Sedro-Woolley high ,school coach. Ellensburg has attracted a number of ex-prep stars who will no doubt present as formidable a team as that school has ever produced. November 6 is Homecoming, occasioned by the invasion of Cheney Normal. The Savages scalped the blond wigs of the Vikings to a fare-you-well last year at Cheney, and are reported as having a team of practically "the" same calibre. Cheney had a turnout of over fifty men this season, and if numbers are any indication, they portend a championship team. The east-siders suffered a severe trouncing at the hands of Gonzaga University last Saturday, however, being outclassed to the tune of 66-0. ; The final game is against the University Super-Varsity on Armistice Day, November 11. This game will be a part of the celebration planned by the American Legion. There is a possibility of a game being arranged for November 20. The Super Varsity has usually proved a little too strong for the Vikings, although last year they outplayed them, losing the game by a tough break. With a powerful team such as present indications point to, this may be the year the University boys bow before the Vikings. Jack Dempsey, world's heavyweight champion, the nonpareil of the boxing world, lost his crown to Gene Tunney, the fighting ex-Marine, last Friday in the Sesqui-Centennial Stadium at Philadelphia. 132,000 people paid $2,000,000 to see this greatest of all modern boxing matches, in which Tunney pounded and pounded Dempsey, a mere shell of his former self.' :: Always Something New, in Records, and Sheet Music.

With the 1926 football season coming into full swing, with thousands of teams preparing for games, and with thousands of games scheduled for the next three months, this year promises to be the greatest in the 'history of the game. Several professional leagues, many , collegiate contests, and innumerable interscho-lastic mixes will help to make the pigskin game more. popular than ever, and will continue to furnish recreation and excitement to millions ofenthusiastic fans. College football still remains supreme, despite the inroads made by numerous "pro" teams. Nowhere do these professionals display the "class" and wonderful spirit and determination evidenced by the college teams. There are in the neighborhood of 50 colleges and universities out after the inter-collegiate crown held by Dartmouth in 1925, while numerous athletes are making determined efforts to "make" the mythical All-American team, the highest honor available to a football man. At this present, early-season stage, the University of Michigan is doped as the strongest team in the country. With two All-American men and its 1925 baekfield, it is sure to be a real threat. Dartmouth and Southern California are ranked next in ability—Dartmouth, because of last year's showing; Southern California, because of its numerous returning lettermen. Alabama, the strong team, of the south in 1925, is not looked upon as a real threat this season. Washington, Pacific Coast champions of last year, has lost its "strong-men." " Last week saw the near defeat of several leading coast teams. California just managed to come through against Santa Clara, winning 13-6. The "Golden Bear" appears to have lost its former brilliance under Andy Smith; Washington failed to walk over its opponent, the U. S. S. New Mexico very impressively; Stanford, conqueror of California and Southern California a year ago, managed to squeeze through with a 13-6 victory over California Tech.. As the. only real upset of last week, Georgia Tech, counted upon as a leading team of the South, was defeated by Oglethorpe University, 7-6. The two professional leagues, the National and American, are attempting to "put over" their type of game, but as in other years, do not have the popular appeal that the college boys do, and have not as yet gained a secure hold on the sporting public.

She was a devoted teacher and 'put her work above everything -else' She was sympathetic with the efforts of young people and took great satisfaction in seeing them develop in the skill and the art of teaching; In addition to being a. competent and successful teacher she was a woman of character and fine qualities of personality. She radiated with human kindness and sympathy. She was tolerant in her attitude toward others who held different opinions. She maintained an open mind and was receptive to new ideas. She spent her life in service to others I and at the end of a summer's vacation, which jthe thoroughly enjoyed in her cottage on Orcas Island, she quietly and gloriously passed away to the life beyond." .•:%;-7::••^i^:'iitaM^gl^• gt;iM^•;x:; gt;••v•;:•• •:-::#PHdHES:; mairtiar •;' i i^ •He Profit! k b i t Whe SerTe* Bfrt» Quality Work and Service Slickers $4.50 and $6.25 Hales OUTDOOR STORE 1223 State St. COURTESY OUB MOTTO • ; . ^ . t - : : viiivE;' Holly- ; V Open from 6; a.jih.'to 2 a. m.

Of them 11,980 were Americans, 4,302 British and -1,355 German. I cannot tell you how much. I miss Miss Wallace. She always showed a kind feeling towards me. I remember, this summer, while visiting a girl friend at Olga that one morning when I got up I felt blue. I wanted to go for a walk, but there-was no place to go. Suddenly I remembered Miss Wallace was staying at Olga. So I ate breakfast and went out in search of her. After wandering around I found her cottage. I rapped on the door and she came out and asked me to come in and sit by the fire place. Her little cottage was the coziest little house I ever saw. Everything seemed to welcome me. She pulled up a chair beside the fire place and as I sat down she began to tell me her advenfures at Olga. I could sit and listen to her for hours. She showed me through the house and invited me to dinner. I hated the clock when it became time to go. I will always remember Miss Wallace for the kind deeds she did for me. Training School Student.
