Srrsiiu nt. . iahrr  No one has worked more enthusiastically  and joyfully
in the interests of the school;  no one has proved a better friend to
students  and faculty; no one has had a greater interest  in making
improvements both in the curricu-lum  and in school activities, than
President  Fisher. Although he has been here but one  year, we claim that
he is truly of Bellingham  State Normal.

Abrle M. 3Jor  Dean of Women  Miss Jones is a friend to all the girls and 
is very active in promoting the social activi-ties  of the school. The
program of social  events for the past year, including teas,  mixers, and
the dance given by the girls  living eutside the dormitory, is in itself
evi-dence  of her interest.  Her greatest undertaking, perhaps, was  the
organization of the Women's League, an  association long needed by the
women of the  school.

in composition, short story novel,  poetry, drama, and  essay, including
literature both American and English, are offered in various quar-ters   of
the school year. Composition and Methods are required, but hundreds of 
students each quarter elect other courses in the department. Many teachers,
feeling  the need of a cultural background and breadth of  vision,
specialize in English work.  The Expression department included in the
English work offers twelve courses  in vocal training and dramatic
interpretations. People especially interested in  dramatics or debate find
this department very helpful and interesting. The in-structors  in both
dramatics and debate are  admirably fitted for their work and are  a source
of inspiration to their students.  Fourteen

LONGLEY Industrial Arts  This department stresses a high degree of
technical skill in woodwork and  drawing. The following subjects are
taught: Elementary Woodwork, Advanced  Woodwork and Cabinent Making, Wood
Turning, Wood Finishing, Organization  and Administration of Industrial
Education, Advanced Mechanical Drawing,  Architectural Drawing, Freehand,
Perspective and Practice Teaching in the  Training School. Every year many
well-trained teachers are sent out. An extensive study is  made of courses
and equipments to be used in grade and high schools, for the best 
advancement of industrial work in the schools.  .-- o- --  Home Economics 
The Home Economics Department is primarily planned for those who wish to 
teach Home Economics, but many courses are open as electives to other
students  in the school.  Eight of the thirteen courses offered here are
required for those who are special-izing  in this department, including
three methods courses. Advanced Cookery and  Table Service is valuable to
every girl. In this course the students actually prepare  and serve
luncheons, dinners, and teas, managing them and computing the costs.  In
the Dressmaking and Millinery courses the girls not only make pretty
dresses  and hats, but they also study correct dress, color harmony and
combinations of  materials. Fifteen

Library The Library of the Bellingham State Normal is rated as one of the
best in  the Northwest. This is largely due to the work of the librarian
who for many years  has been collecting the best works in every subject for
our library.  The aim of the librarian has been to have such books as are
adequate to meet  the needs, aims, and interests of a teacher-training
institution. Because teachers  must have o;her knowledge in addition to
professional knowledge, the library has  devoted a large part of its
twenty-eight thousand volumes and five thousand pam-phlets  to history,
art, literature, science, sociology, and other subjects. There are one
hundred fifty magazines in the periodical rooms. These maga-zines  have
been carefully chosen to keep the students in close touch with
contem-porary  thought and action.  The juvenile library is a training
laboratory where students learn regular li-brary  work. This library
contains three thousand volumes of carefully chosen books  for children. It
is well patronized by the training school pupils.  The fundamental aim of
the librarian is to get these books into the hands of  the students. No
limit is placed on the number of books each student may take.  One quarter
of Library Instruction is required of first-year students so they can  use
the library intelligently. The aims of this course have been to teach
students methods in libraries, the use of books, magazines, management of
school 'libraries,  and the choosing of good literature for children.  The
library is one of the main tools by which a teacher can become efficient.

Art and Handicraft Department  Here the aim is nothing less than the
awakening of higher aspirations through   the development of appreciation
and enlarged observation of beauty in nature and  art; also the cutivation 
of better possibilities of usefulness to others by an artistic  use of the
materials at hand.  During the mid- year exhibit, visiting students took
notes on the many useful  devices that were displayed in four rooms where
work suitable for pupils of all  ages could be found; pretty little cutouts
for the tiny tot; something for the boy;  things too numerous to mention
for the older pupils. Many a grown-up looked  wistfully at the various
shaped baskets with touches of color, *woven bags and  runners, draperies,
decorative designs and many other charming accessories for  the home.  Most
worthy of mention was the exhibit in March when work done by the  Studio
Art Club predominated. Easels and screens were draped with the depart-
ment's  most colorful draperies, batik and textiles of various weaves as a
background  for the creations in water color, charcoal, crayon and pastel.
Cunning baskets ap-peared  in many places; bright-bordered table-runners
found appropriate places, and  at a well-appointed table, tea was poured
and served by members of the Art Club.  It is from this department that the
student teacher will go into some remote community with clever hands and an
appreciation of beauty, and will recognize in  children the possibility to
develop mind and soul by awakening his aesthetic powers,  or bring
happiness to those who are passing with senses closed to nature's
loveliness.  Seventeen

GRAGG Department of Mathematics and  Business Education  Under the
direction of Mr. Bond, various courses in  mathematics are offered,  which
include everything from Review Arithmetic to Elementary and Advanced
Algebra, Geometry and Trigonometry. Classes in History of Arithmetic and
Phil-osophy  of Arithmetic as well as methods for intermediate and grammar
grades  are given.  The success of those trained in the business department
is largely due to the  fact that the instructors take the natural ability,
initiative, and power of the  student and develop these to the highest
point of efficiency.  The courses offered are Bookkeeping, Shorthand,
Business English, Typing,  Business Arithmetic, Commercial Law, Spelling,
and Penmanship. A student  wishing to have Shorthand count toward
graduation must complete at least eight  hours of work in that subject. The
student who presents Bookkeeping or Typing  in fulfillment of the Group
Elective must complete at least eight hours of work in  the subject, but
either may count toward graduation as a free elective of four hours.  This
department is equipped with a Burroughs adding and listing machine,  the
Monroe calculating machine, which is wonderful in scope and simplicity of
operation, and an A. B. Dick duplicating machine. Special instruction in
the  use of these machines will be given to any who wish to fit themselves
for the  special lines of work in which they are used.  Mrs. May  Lovegren
handles the extension work in addition to her duties in  this department.

WILLIAM J. MARQUIS  The Education Department  The Education Department,
which is really the nucleus of a Normal school,  covers the following
fields: Psychology, Child Study, Observation and Methods,  Rural Education,
School Law and School Management, Principles and History of  Education,
Educational Measurements, Intelligence Tests, and School Administra-tion. 
In these various lines about thirty different  courses a year are given,
dis-tributed  through the four years of the college course. During the four
quarters,  about four thousand students are enrolled in classes in this
department.  The ideals of the department call for highly trained teachers,
specialization of  instruction, and sharp focusing of the work on the
problem of teacher training.  Nineteen

MRS. L. A. GAUL ANNA ULLIN  Foreign Language  At present French and Spanish
are stressed in the Foreign Language depart-ment,  though Latin and German
are sometimes given. A variety of courses are offered, so that both
beginning students and advanced students may find work  every quarter along
this line.  For beginners, Elementary French and Spanish are given. The
direct method  is used, in which pronunciation and idioms are particularly
noticed. Advanced  classes in composition, grammar, and literature, as well
as special courses in pho-netics  are offered.  Special methods classes are
given for those who expect to teach language in  Junior High school.

JESSIE AMES BELTON HARRISON RAYMOND JOHN ROY WILLIAMS ETHEL GARDNER  Music 
The Department of Music offers instruction in piano, stringed instruments, 
and voice training besides the courses in the method of public school
music. As  prerequisites to these latter subjects, sight singing and
fundamentals of music are  given. Students have also been able to take
electives in History of Music, Har-mony,  Conducting, and Appreciation. 
Besides the music that is taught in all grades in the training school, the
Girls'  Clef Club of the Training School has been organized. Both Normal
and training  school orchestras have proved successful and are great
favorites at assemblies.  Among the musical activities are the Clef Club,
which has for its membership  twenty-four selected women; the Men's Glee
Club, also of selected membership;  and a Normal Quartet, composed of
women, and a Double Male Quartet. Twenty-one

JAMES M. BEVER NORA B. CUMMINGS NORMAN P. LAWSON THOS. F. HUNT  History and
Social Science  This department covers a wide range of knowledge which
up-to-the-minute  teachers must know if they would b° community
leaders. Instructors in these sub-jects  teach that all subjects should be
presented in relation to their bearing upon  the problems of today.  The
history courses embrace all phases of European and American history,
in-cluding  the World War period. Courses in history method are offered
each quarter,  covering important points in presentation.  In social
science, courses are offered  in principles of sociology, rural sociology, 
social problems, economics, community civics, comparative government,
commercial  and political geography.  Interesting courses for electives are
offered from time to time: as, Northwest  History, Geography of Asia, and
Reconstruction of Europe.  Twenty-two

 Science and Physical Education  The Science department has four
well-equipped laboratories affording excel-lent facilities for teaching of
Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Physiology, Hygiene,  Nature Study, and
Agriculture. It has a three and one-half inch astronomical tele-scope, 
which is used in courses in Introduction to Science and Nature Study. This 
department aims to give direct preparation for the teaching of Hygiene,
Agriculture,  Nature Study, and Elementary General Science in the
elementary schools and high  schools of the state. It also serves to enrich
the scientific background of a student. The Physical Education department,
with Miss Long as head for girls and Mr.  Carver for boys, aims to give
methods in teaching athletics as well as to training  the students
themselves.  Courses offered in this  department include such methods
courses as Coaching,  Plays and Games, Marching Tactics, and Schoolroom
Gymnastics. Elementary and  Advanced Folk Dancing are given, as well as
Aesthetic Dancing. Swimming is  now required of all girls, making a total
of four hours' gym work required for grad- uation.  Practice Teaching may
be given in this department to those who are special-izing  in Physical
Education.  Students are given health examinations upon entrance and secure
the services  of a nurse and physician throughout the year.  Closely allied
to this department are the two athletic clubs of the school, the  "W" club
for men and the W. A. A. for women.  Twenty-three

Training School  While many think that the whole purpose of the Training
School is the practice  afforded student teachers, it has another aim also.
This is the education of the  pupils in the school for citizenship in the
social situations which they encounter  in school and later life.  The work
carried on in this department is intended to be along those lines  which
will best fit both teachers and pupils to meet situations as they find them
 in life and to make the proper response. The aim is not to cover just so
many  pages in a text book, but to provide experiences for the student
which will have  a real value in his later life.  Among the activities
connected with the Training School are the orchestra,  a girl's glee club,
a health club and athletic teams. These and others of a  similar nature
afford the best possible teaching in co-operation and good citizenship. 
The student teacher receives practical training in the schoolroom and
learns  how to handle many of the situations which arise in the work. As
soon as the  training teachers consider that the student teacher is capable
of handling the  daily routine, they leave the responsibility upon her, so
that she develops initiative  and confidence in her own ability. The
training teachers are always ready and  anxious to help solve any of the
difficulties which may arise.  The aim of both training teachers and
student teachers is to instruct in such  a way as to develop the initiative
and resourcefulness of the pupils to the highest  possible degree.

busy, and often when they do, students and faculty alike enter the office
and ask  for varied bits of information.  The appointment office is always
busy placing graduates in positions. This  work demands a great deal of

Third and Fourth Year Class  This is the second year that the Third and
Fourth year classes have had any   organization of any kind. Up to the year
beginning in 1922 no attempt at organiza-tion  had been made, because there
were practically no students here who had done  more than two years' work
above the high  school. However, there has been some  agitation in the
direction of making this institution a normal college, and to this  end the
upper classes have been organized under the name of the Senior College
Group.  In the fall quarter Chester Hume was elected president of the
group. With  the able guidance of the sponsor, Doctor Miller, and the
willing support of his  committees, in Mr. Hume's administration plans for
future work of the class were  made, and, as far as possible, were carried
out.  During the fall and winter quarters the class gained in membership
and in  prestige, and in the spring quarter there were about forty-five
members in the  group. The class is represented in practically every phase
of the life of the   school, and all its members are a credit to the
institution. Although small in  numbers, the enthusiasm and ambition of the
class are boundless, and their plans  and achievements worthy of praise. 
It is the hope of the Senior College Group that this Normal School will
soon  include in its curriculum subjects which will entitle it to be ranked
along with the  other colleges of the Northwest.  Twenty-eight

Sophomore Class  It was the opening day of the fall quarter, and students
were to be seen in  all parts of the halls, hurriedly rushing hither and
thither; some with blank cards,  some with books, many with bewildered
expressions on wondering countenances.  Yet here and there were
individuals, singly or in groups, who were conspicuous  by their apparent
self-confidence, by their calm, direct bearing. Their firm step,  their
business-like manner was distinctive. All in all it was an attitude which 
unmistakably revealed  their identity-Sophomores.  Diversions at the
beginning of a school year are many and varied. Yet the business-like
attitude of the Sophomores soon asserted itself and on October 18  they
assembled in the auditorium to form a class organization. John O'Rourke, 
past president, called the meeting to order. An election was held and the
following  officers were chosen to serve for the fall quarter:  ROBERT
CAULKINS President  MRS. CARVER . Vice-President  VERA JENKINS . Secretary 
CLYDE BURMASTER. . . Treasurer  The Sophomores gave their first party the
evening of November 1, and in keeping with the season it was a holiday
masquerade; spooks and goblins were  the order of the evening and the
Hallowe'en spirit was accentuated by the strange  costumes and weird
lighting. Witches, black cats, masks-then the strains of a  prize waltz.
Thus the Sophomores early demonstrated to the school that they  could turn
a usual ordinary affair into something unusual, unique and characteristic. 
November 13, the president called to order a meeting of the sophomore 
class. It soon would have become apparent to anyone that it was an unusual 
class meeting. Distinctive, appealing talks were made by several members of
the  class. Several other people who were not members of the sophomore
class, but  who were representative people in school, had also been invited
to speak. And  they too, brought their message. The whole meeting
represented an effort to bring  out the urgent problems, not alone of the
sophomore class, but of the school as  a whole.  On December 11 President
Caulkins called a well attended meeting to order.  In a short snappy manner
the business at hand was finished. Don Tunstall was  elected to serve as
the sophomore representative on the Klipsun Board. The  meeting was now
turned over to the program committee and the class enjoyed  a short talk by
Betty Riley and readings by Helen Cummins and Dewey Bowman.  Thirty-one

December 15, another one of those inimitable sophomore parties was given. 
When school closed for the Christmas recess, fifty sophomores were lost to 
the school through graduation. They chose not to have the usual graduation 
ceremony. They left us as quietly as they came, without ostentation,
without show;  and they will do their chosen work in the same manner,
quietly, modestly and well.  The Christmas holidays were over and once more
school activities were  resumed. January 10 the Sophomores met to elect
officers for the new quarter.  The class chose the following members: 
CLYDE BURMASTER President  DON TUNSTALL .Vie-President  ELEANOR WHISNER
Secretary  KATIE JENKINS Treasurer February 29 the Sophomores held a class
party in the gymr_asium.  March 5 the class met to transact various sundry
business. Following  that was a short program, consisting of a vocal solo
by Miss Hendrickson and  readings by Miss Parsons and Clyde Cole.  Two
weeks later class activities were interrupted by the termination of the 
quarter and beginning of spring recess. Again fifty Sophomores were lost to
 the school and to the class through graduation. And again they chose to
leave  quietly, without the formality or the ceremony of the customary
graduation  exercises.  March 28 school reconvened for the third quarter of
the year-and what is  for the Sophomores-the busiest quarter. Many things
remain to be done in that  last quarter before graduation-things for the
school, things for the class, things  for one's self; the usual lessons to
prepare, requirements to fulfill, the usual  number of school activities to
participate in, pertinent matters of class to attend  to so the subsequent
class may begin where it stopped, without any encumbrances, 
acquaintanceship to be developed to friendship, friendship to be cemented
to  everlasting bonds of affection. All these causes, and more, contribute
toward  making the final quarter for the Sophomore, his busiest-and yet
most enjoyable.  And then comes the last final week; the hurried and
flurried rush and excitement  of commencement; anticipations, expectations;
the night of commencement-the  diploma-and the Sophomore is a graduate. 
The sophomore class has been together  perhaps for the last time. And yet 
its spirit will not die. Next year its members will be scattered far and
wide, doing  their various work. They will be in Alaska, in its coast towns
and inland villages.  They will be in Hawaii. They will be in Washington.
They will be in Montana.  They will be everywhere, and wherever they go
they will take with them memories  and impressions of the school where they
received their training, of the class of  which they were a part. Each
recurrence of an impression will be a rebirth; and each moment of lingering
over a fond memory will be a renewal of the Sophomore  class.  And in that
way  the sophomore class is not at an end, but really only just  beginning.

To An Incense Burner  Dedicated to Miss Cleda Blake  By GEORGE SHERMAN 
Silent old incense man  Of oriental clan,  Smoking incessantly,  What
dreams have you brought me?  Puffing forth violet,  Wild rose, and
mignonette-  Ah, I breathe them yet,  Silent old incense man.  Making my
room a maze,  Each door a thousand ways,  It would take nights and days  To
find my way out.  Fashioning with facility Geniis that rise stealthily  And
look down at me,  With wistful sad eyes.  Under your magic spell  I've
heard a wedding bell  Grow faint, and swell  In the still night.  Once, in
your foggy breath  I saw grim-eyed Death  And my lovely Elinor .  I kissed
her once, once, no more.  Silent old incense man  Of oriental clan,  
Smoking incessantly,  What dreams you have brought me.  Fifty-nine

SII i -  Freshman Class  We, the class of '25, who so solemnly entered the
portals of Bellingham State Normal school in the fall of 1923 and set out
to sail over the Sea of Victories with  Henry Hoffman as captain; Vivian
Holcombe, first mate; Catherine Watts, second  mate, and Milton Blonden,
purser, wish to  declare this will and testament:  Be it known that because
of our great size we were divided into three groups  for our parties, but
we nevertheless became well acquainted and made many true  friends:  - That
when those at the helm were changed, Dick Bruland, Mike Thorniley, 
Catherine Watts and Milton Blonden were put in charge of the ship of the
class  of '25. And let it be known that all served faithfully.  It is true
that we entered men into every activity in the school; that one of  us
captained the football boys; that others edited and managed the Messenger
and  Klipsun; that a goodly number debated for the honor of the school;
that both the  Men's and Women's organizations were led by our classmates;
that some among  us are classed with those of great musical ability; that
the drama is supported by  Freshman talent; and that the Tulip Queen was
chosen from our ranks.  We who, as hereby stated, have been so wealthy in
all possible class posses-sions,  desire to bequeath to all classes
following that same spirit of good will,  enthusiasm and sportsmanship that
has so greatly filled us. To the instructors of  our institution we wish to
give our sincere thanks for their good and faithful teach-ing.  And to the
school as a whole we wish to say that whatever we may have  given, that was
a benefit, was given gladly; and that for the knowledge which we  have
gained we are grateful.  It is our desire, now that the ship of the class
of '25  will soon cast anchor at  the end of the voyage of its first year,
to wish for those who are about to set out  again in a journey of their
own, that success and happiness may be theirs.  Be it thus known that
herein are stated the wishes of the class of '25.  CONSTANCE M. MARKUSON,
Executrix.

Tulip Festival  To have three former Tulip Queens enrolled as students, is
the unique record  of the Bellingham Normal.  Miss Marjorie McIntire, who
was queen this year, is a Freshman. She was  chosen by a committee of
students and faculty from a group of eight girls, anyone  of whom would
have been charming in the role.  Miss Aletta Day, this year a student at
Normal, was elected when she was at- tending  a local high school. She
reigned over the 1922 festivities.  Miss Mabel Hickson, of Sedro Woolley,
was the candidate of the Normal  in 1923.  This year the marchers of the
Normal were adjudged to be the best school  delegation and took first prize
in the school section, for float and marchers.  The float was designed by
the Art Department and was made by students  in the art classes.  The Tulip
Festival had its beginning five years ago, when a group of promi-nent 
business men of Bellingham conceived the idea of making this city famous as
 "Tulip Town."  The idea of the "tulip" arose naturally from the fact that
the only government  bulb farm was located in Bellingham. The climate and
soil of this vicinity being  extremely favorable for the cultivation of
tulips, all residents and schools were  urged to plant as many bulbs as
possible. Interest was heightened by the offer  of loving cups for the best
displays  and by the annual blossom show.  The festival has grown and
become so well known that many hundreds of  visitors from all over the
Northwest come to see the celebration.  S:xty-five

THOMAS WHITE RANKIN  BOND SELBY GRAGG  Board of Control  With the exception
of three members, the Board of Control which met for  the last time at the
close of the winter quarter was made up  of entirely new  members from
those elected in the spring. Of those seven original members, which  were 
Maurice Thomas, president; Leland Rankin, vice-president; Mrs. Carl Irish, 
Mr. Charles Simonsen and Mr. John O'Rourke, student representatives, Mr. E.
A.  Bond, and Miss Delia Keeler, faculty representatives, only Mr. Bond,
Mr. O'Rourke  and Mr. Simonsen remained.  In spite of the many and varied
changes in the personnel of the Board, a  great deal of real work was
accomplished. The plans for the athletic games were  well considered.
Especially to be remembered was the dedication of Waldo Field  on November
9. This Board also spent many weary hours in the framing of a  new
constitution and by-laws in which some new ideals were incorporated for 
the Students' Association. The Board did not neglect the social side of
school  life for they planned many interesting mixers and programs, two of
which will  long be remembered, the Christmas program and the Armory dance.
The last  work accomplished by this Board was the institution of a new
commission for  the furthering of the development  of Normal-Stad and other
Student Association  property.  One thing that marked the meetings of this
Board at all times was the spirit  of co-operation and good fellowship in
which their work was done. The presence  of the President of the Normal
School at the meetings was a great factor for  harmony and smooth working
power and tended to promote unity.  Sixty-six

BAUCRMAN LUND LINDSTEDT  CEDE'RIERG BLACK  Student's Co-Op  Starting back
in 1908 on a small basis, the Student's Co-op has enjoyed a  steady growth
until now it is equipped to furnish students  with all the necessary 
school supplies and accessories, at reasonable prices. The students are
able to enjoy the advantages of a large bookstore inside our own walls. 
Mr. Baughman, the manager, has been with the Co-op almost from its
begin-ning,  and it has been through his earnest efforts that the store has
reached its  present success. Mr. Baughman believes in low prices and
prompt, courteous  service. Students and teachers appreciate the efficient
service rendered by Mr. Baugh-man  and his assistants, Mrs. Edith L. Black,
Miss Ruth C. Lund, Mr. Oscar H.  Lindstedt, and Mr. Theodore Cederberg.

Again great credit is due to our splendid coach, Horace G. Rahskopf, who 
spent his time untiringly working with teams so that they might be
victorious for  their Alma Mater.  The debate season this year is  one to
be remembered. With the exception  of three people all members of the teams
were new, but despite this fact, under  the splendid coaching, teams were
perfected and the season ended with a record   of seven debates with six
victories and the winning of the Allison Cup for the  second successive
year. This year keener interest than ever before was displayed  in
forensics, and with this season's record future  work is expected to be
even  more successful.  Because of a clash in questions the intended tour
of the Pacific Coast was  not made. However, next year it is planned to
train the teams on only one  question, thus making it possible to make the
tour.  BELLINGHAM-BADGER DUEL DEBATE  Resolved: That the Supreme Court
shall not be allowed to declare a law  unconstitutional unless seven of
nine judges concur in the decision.  Bellingham, Affirmative 3 Badger 0 
Bellingham, Negative 3 Badger . 0  Tuesday .morning, February 19, at the
regular assembly hour, the first debate  of the season was held. Mr. Arnold
and Mr. Berolski upheld the affirmative.  They based their arguments on the
grounds that the power held by the Supreme  Court is too great, and showed
that where there is only a five-four decision there  is a doubt as to the
actual constitutionality of a law. The present method, they  proved, is
undemocratic and not logical. The negative failed to meet these points 
satisfactorily.  Sixty-eight

INTER-NORMAL TRIANGULAR DEBATE  Bellingham, Affirmative 2 Ellensburg 1 
Bellingham, Negative 2 Cheney . . . 1  In the contest between the three
Normal Schools of the state, the negative  of each team again debated away
from home. Bellingham's team went to Ellens-burg,  Ellensburg to Cheney,
and Cheney to Bellingham. All three debates were  held on the evening of
March 6.  On the home floor the affirmative team, upheld by Miss Arnell,
Mr. Griffith  and Mr. Simonson, proved superior both in organization of
facts and delivery.  Their arguments were based on there being too much
power at present, and  that a bare majority such as five to four is not a
sufficient number to declare  any law unconstitutional. Nine of the most
recent five to four decisions were  cited and it was shown that a doubt
existed in these decisions, therefore declaring  unconstitutional laws
which would have been beneficial to the country.  The negative failed to
meet these and other arguments in rebuttal, losing  by a two to one
decision.  Those who made the first trip to Ellensburg were Miss Arnell,
Miss Loers  and Mr. Arnold. There the team was again far superior both in
delivery and  logic to the Ellensburg trio. They based their arguments on
the grounds that  the Supreme Court is the supreme power of the land and is
a body composed  of men who know the best. They took nine of the most
recent five .to four  decisions and showed how these were unconstitutional,
and, had they l;een passed,  how they would have been harmful  to the
country. The affirmative did not prove  their case conclusively enough,
thereby losing to the Bellingham team by a  two to one decision.  The tie
debate was held again at Cheney with the same teams, with the  exception of
one member on each team. Due to a sudden illness on the part of  Miss
Loers, Miss Arnell was chosen in her place, and again the team left with 
high hopes for another victory which would mean the Blue and White for the 
second year could claim the Allison Cup.  On the evening of March 18 the
teams met. But fate was with the Blue  and White. So perfect was the
organization of material and delivery that the  affirmative could not find
a flaw in our machine-like team, and again Cheney   failed to meet our
arguments, losing to the Alma Mater with a two to one decision.  This ended
the inter- triangular series, making Bellingham again holder of  the much
coveted cup.  The Allison Cup is a trophy offered by Guy S. Allison to
stimulate interest  in forensics among the Normal Schools of the state. Mr.
Allison is a graduate  of Bellingham Normal, and is now engaged in business
in San Francisco, Cali- fornia,  and in Portland. Under the terms of the
inter-Normal debate agreement,  the school winning the cup for three
successive years is entitled to hold it perm-anently.  According to these
terms Bellingham has only one more year to win the  cup until it will be
the proud possessor.  S v-zenty

LINFIELD-DUEL DEBATE  Resolved: That the Federal Government should
establish a farmer's national co-operative marketing association for the
purpose of the distribution of farm  products.  Bellingham, Affirmative . 0
Linfield . 3  Bellingham, Negative . 2 Linfield . 1  At the morning
assembly hcur, Friday, March 28, a negative team composed  of two women
representing Linfield College of McMinnville, Oregon,  met Belling-ham's 
affirmative team composed of Miss Hibner and Mr. Clapp on the home  floor.
The negative team presented arguments and facts in such a manner  that the
home team was unable to match them. By quoting the Tea Pot Dome  act, the
negative showed that the Government was inefficient to handle such an 
undertaking. Their delivery was conceded to be the best ever heard from a 
visiting team.  On the evening of the same day a team composed of Lorena
Wiester and  Stanford Clinton, upholding the negative of the same question,
met Linfield's  affirmative team at McMinnville. The negative based their
arguments on the  grounds that such an association is unnecessary, that it
would not do the needed  work, that such an association would cause either
still more unfair competition,  or it would become a monopolistic
association, which is contrary to the policy  of our government, and that
the people would be taxed to support something that  would not be
beneficial to the whole country. The affirmative failed to meet these 
objections, thereby losing to the negative by a two to one decision.  Thus
with this record ended the debate season of 1924.  Sezenty-orne

Football  Of a total of five games played, B. S. N. S. won three and tied
two. Coach  Carver develcped a grid machine of real college calibre.  The
completion of Waldo Field and choosing of the team name- Vikings-coupled 
with the winning of the minor college championship, caused 1923 to stand 
out as a stellar season. It set a high mark for future teams to strive for,
and will  long be remembered in B. S. N. S.  football history.  SCHEDULE

continually put in new men  in an effort to stop the Viking machine. The
locals started their counting in the  first few minutes, when on the third
down McPherson broke away for a sixty yard run, carrying the ball to the
two-yard line. Bruland took it over. A pass  from Graham to "Keppy" netted
the second touchdown. In the last quarter  Beardsley went across for the
third touchdown.  The Frosh scored once, when Delaney received a punt and
took the ball down  the field for their only score. The line-up--Dawson, L.

VIKINGS 3 - ST. MARTIN'S 3  In one of the most exciting games of the
season, Bruland drop-kicked the Vikings' only score in the third quarter.
Normal hopes were shattered when, in  the last few minutes of play,
Pesquain, C. P. S. tackle, dropped back and kicked  goal. The game ended

superiority by the decisive defeat of Ellens-burg,  November 16. The
Crimson and Black played a hard game but came out  with the short end of a
20-3 score. It was a proper christening for Waldo Field,  dedicated on this
date.  During the first quarter Wilder went through for the first score.
With gains  from Beardsley, Graham and Wilder the second touchdown was
made. The local backfield again went across in the fourth quarter.
Robinson, Ellensburg, drop-kicked  from the forty yard line for the
easterner's solo.  VIKINGS 27 - CHENEY 13  In the big Turkey Day game the
Viking squad added another victory to their  string when they defeated the
Cheney Savages. Playing real football, the Vikings  had Cheney helpless.
Wilder, with excellent help from his mates, took the ball  across for three
touchdowns. Bruland went across once for a pretty one. Cheney  scored twice
as a result of blocked punts.  Seventy-six

six games played,  Normal has neither lost nor tied a single game. At the
opening Conference game,  May 1, Normal won from the University Frosh by a
score of 4-2. The University  Babes made their two runs in the second
inning. The Vikings made one score in the first inning and tied their
rivals in the third. In the fourth the locals brought  in two runs. The
Freshmen failed to overcome this lead. Normal played an  errorless game.

1923 Track  In 1923 the Viking track squad competed in three tournaments.
These were  the relay meet at Seattle on April 28, the track and field meet
at Seattle on May 12,  and the tri-Normal meet at Ellensburg, May 5.  The
relay team from Normal placed third in the Seattle event, and in the  track

At Ellensburg the Vikings took 53 points out of a possible 95; Cheney and 
Ellensburg together took 42 points. This gave Bellingham the Normal
Conference  Cup which it has held for two consecutive years. B. S. N. S.
also won the relay  Cup. The individual point medal went to Frank, who led
with a total of 161 gt;i points.  Bellingham point winners follow:

S ATIIIITK  U-O0  Miss FRANK, Instructor in Physical Education Girls' Coach
 Miss Frank has instilled in the girls the desire for clean play at all
times; to  enter into the game for the fun of it, and not merely for the
object of winning. She  advocates love of sports for sports' sake, the mark
of the true sportsman being  his  ability to accept defeat in the same
spirit as he accepts victory. Miss Frank has  taught the girls teamwork and
the value of good comradeship.  Eighty-four

Basketball  Basketball turnouts were large from the first, the Sophomores
having only a  few less than the  Freshmen.  After some preliminary work,
the girls plunged into the game. They worked  hard, turning out two nights
a week.  Early in March the teams were chosen for the Kline Cup games. As
the class  teams  are the only teams the girls are allowed to make as yet,
they were as anxious  to play their best as if they had made a first team.
Sometime they hope to have  the honor of representing the Normal on a first
team.  The first Kline Cup game was played March 4, at Whatcom High school,
as a  preliminary to the Normal-Spokane College game. This was a fast,
clean game,  and good teamwork was displayed on both  sides. The score was
one-sided through-out  the game, the Sophomores leading by a wide margin.
The Freshmen seemed  unable to check the speedy teamwork of their
opponents. At the end of the game  the  score stood 39-11 in favor of the
Sophomores.  The second game was played March 11, at Normal. This was a
hard-fought and  exciting game. With the addition of Alice Barber, the
Freshmen rallied and held the Sophomores to close, fast playing. The score
hesitated, first favoring the  Sophs, and then the Frosh. In the last few
minutes of play the Frosh got the edge  on the Sophs, and when the game
ended, the tally was 33-32 in favor of the Fresh-men.  The third game was
played March 17, at Normal. This game was the final and  deciding game for
the cup. At the beginning there was considerable loose playing  until the
girls settled down; then they played a good brand of basketball. The  Sophs
came back in this game and,  aided by splendid teamwork and accurate
shoot-ing,  they won by a score of 41-22.  The class of '24 has  had the
honor of winning the cup twice, as they were  successful in their Freshman
year. Four of the Frosh team of last year played on  this year's Sophomore
team.  Edna McKelvey F. Doris Turner  Mrs. Helen Hannah F. Agnes Tweit

Volleyball  Following the close of the basketball seascn the girls began
playing volleyball.  When the weather permitted they played outside, thus
enjoying the spring weather  and the game at the same time.  The Tulip
Festival delayed the Sophomores and  Freshmen in playing off their game,
but they met at the close of the first six  weeks. Both classes had worked
up good teams and the game proved very exciting.  0  Baseball  The last six
weeks of the spring quarter the girls played baseball out of  doors. A
great deal of promising material turned out both for the Sophomores  and
the Freshmen. Miss Frank is coaching the Sophomore girls, while Mrs. 
Foster has the Freshmen squad. A lively game between the two teams is
expected  by the end of the season.  - - -- -  Field Hockey  This, a new
sport to most of the girls, was introduced this spring. Many  girls who did
not care about the other sports have shown a great deal of interest  and
turned out in force for hockey. The athletic girls of the school received
it  enthusiastically also, and any day, a group of girls might be seen on
Waldo field,  learning the game.  The Freshmen are turning out and learning
the rud'ments of the game under  the capable instruction of Mrs. Foster,
while the  Sophcmores are receiving the  same instruction from Miss Frank.
The coaches hope to have two teams whipped  into shape by the end of the
season so the Sophomore and Freshmen may have  a game of field  hockey.
This sport is well liked by the girls and will probably  become a major
sport in the school. Eighty-eight

Waldo Field  For many years Bellingham Normal has been handicapped by lack
of a good  athletic field and gymnasium facilities. In spite of this fact,
the teams sent out  by the school have always been of a high standard. One
of these handicaps was  removed this year by the completion of Waldo Field.
It is named in honor of  Pres. D. B. Waldo, who was instrumental in
providing the school with an up-to-date athletic field.  Dedication
exercises were held on November 16, 1923.  Eighty-nine

Weekly Messenger  The Messenger Staff this year has been operating on a
progressive policy.  Several new departments have been added, and better
arrangement throughout the  paper has resulted from the staff's
co-operative efforts in the make-up department.  During the first quarter,
after many lengthy discussions, the class in journalism  decided to change
the entire appearance of their product by adopting the regular  newspaper
form and stock in preference to the former four-column magazine style. The
members of the staff appreciated very much the aid of the faculty and 
students, who offered such valuable suggestions for improvement at the time
the  questionnaire was put before them.  An advanced class in journalism,
beginning the third quarter, made it possible  to have a group working
together who had had former experience, and who knew  something about the
details of newspaper duties. The classes  in English com-position 
lightened the duties of the reporters by contributing many of the shorter 
news items, thus giving all the more time to spend in the printing shop on
make-up.  The Anniversary number, published April 25th, contained a
four-page supple-ment.  This issue, which was the result of the best work
of the staff, attempted  to depict the standards and advantages of the
Normal to the various schools,   educators and alumni into whose hands it
fell.  Warner Poyhonen acted as editor the first two quarters, and John
O'Rourke  filled the position of advertising manager. When Mr. O'Rourke
left at the begin-ning  of  the third quarter, Mr. Poyhonen succeeded him
as manager, and Mr. Harry  Appleton became editor. Much credit is due Mrs.
Ruth A. Hussey, whose  enthusiasm was responsible for the addition of the
course in advanced journalism  to the curriculum of the school, and whose
criticism and help were invaluable to  the publication.  Ninety-three

GRIFFI N PAKAR LUCAS LINESLEY  Quartet  This musical organization has been
in existence for some  years, and has proved  to be one of the greatest and
most useful assets to the school. It has been under  the leadership of Miss
Jessie Ames Belton for the past two years. The quartet  makes four or more
public appearances each quarter and at the end of the three  quarters, each
member is awarded an honorary pin from the Associated Student  Body.  This
year the club started out Very nicely, but right in the midst of their
en-thusiasm  over their new work, Miss Leap Year stepped in with
interruptions. Miss Marion Warner, the second soprano, took the fatal step
and left a vacancy which  was soon filled by Miss  Polly Mock, who in turn
gave place to Miss Marie Pakar.  The third quarter, Mrs. Edna Schumacker
Griffin, the first soprano, accepted a  position in Centralia and left
another vacancy which was filled by Miss Marion  Eager, the first soprano
of last year.  In spite of the many handicaps the quartet has had this
year, they have done  some splendid work, and altogether have had a most
successful season. Ninety-four

Normal Orchestra  With the largest membership in Normal orchestra history,
the school orchestra  under the direction of John R. Williams has, in the
past year, proved itself un-surpassed  in quality as well as in quantity.
Having twenty-seven pieces, including  piano, violin, cello, saxaphones,
trombone, cornet, clarinet, oboe, and drums, this  organization has had a
prominent place in student activities.  Besides presenting a program in
assembly and entertaining at the plays, the  orchestra has appeared in the
Music  department recital, in a program at the State  Teachers' convention,
and before high school assemblies. Great credit is due Mr. Williams for his
splendid direction of the orchestra,  for it has been an organization  of
which the Normal may well be proud,  Ninety-five

also took a prominent part  in the annual Music department concert given at
the end of the second quarter.  We feel that in many respects the club has
had a more successful season this  year than ever before. This is partly
due to the hearty endeavor of each girl in  the club and to the untiring

Men's Glee Club  The Men's Glee Club has had a successful year under the
capable leadership  of Mr. Harrison T. Raymond. Great gains have been made
in numbers and in in-terest.  The club has grown from the quartet of last
year to a chorus of sixteen  voices.  This was the first musical
organization of the school to appear before the  assembly, with a program
on November 2. The club took a prominent part in the  Music department
program on St. Patrick's Day, and sang for the Washington  Federated Music
Clubs on March 18.  The club has been limited in its work by the fact that
many of the members  have had no previous experience, and that none of them
have had vocal training;  but in spite of these limitations, a creditable
showing has been made.  Ninety-seven

Yet of Good  By HELEN HIGHTOWER  A twisted bit of bark,  Sunk in the soft

seasonal craft for larvae,  A sore jog in the youngsters' swimming hole. 
Not so long ago in God's day  You breathed here,  Idol of the hillside, 
Appendage of the great oak;  And now so lowly,  Unpopular with masses,  But
serving Him still.  Let me compare thee With a friend, perhaps, of mine,  A

Gold  (Second Prize Story)  By MARY HIBNER  Gold-gold at last! And in such
a strange place! The prospector wore his  thirty-five years as if it were
an age, and all because the last seven of that thirty-five had been spent
hunting gold. He had panned the dirt in a thousand streams,  and he had
picked at quartz  leads all over Idaho. He had even dug a shaft in  one
place, but never had he found success--and now to stumble upon it in a
place  like this! Above him for a mile and a half was a chaos of granite
boulders which   looked as if they had been spilled at the top and had
scattered like corn from  an overturned bucket clear  to the lake below.
Only where he stood a ledge of  quartz had withstood the onslaught, and in
that quartz  was-gold!  When it had become so dark that he could no longer
see, he relinquished  his pick and sought  his burro and pack. He was not
aware that he burned his  bacon; he stared into the flames and saw gold. 
He built his bed on the murmuring  beach and gazed toward a million stars
but saw gold. Dawn came across the lake,  all shimmering silver and pink.
He rose and climbed to the ledge but saw only  gold. For days gold was his
pleasure, his thoughts, his life.  Weeks passed. When necessity demanded,
he left his  gold to kill a deer or  to fish along the lake at the mouths
of hurrying streams. Partridge were plentiful. The first huckleberries were
already ripe. His hoard of gold beneath the great  granite boulder below
the ledge had grown to goodly proportions.  Then while moving some rocks,
he started a little rock slide. It was small,  and it did no damage; but he
stood aghast at the idea it brought. What if the  thousands of tons of
granite boulders should slide? What if his work should  start them? He did
no more work that day.  There was no way to avert the possible disaster.
The vein led back under  the rock slide, and it was growing richer. Props
would break like matches.  Perhaps he had better stop work. He had enough
to keep him comfortably and  more. But the ever-increasing vein of gold
held him, and he worked on. Each day he thought that tomorrow he would move
his hoard and stop work-tomorrow.  July passed; August, September found him
toiling on at the ever-richening  vein. He worked in a little cave that he
had dug beneath the quartz ledge. Above  the quartz ledge the giant
boulders lay waiting-waiting.  in the quartz a little crack grew gradually
wider. The man enlarged his cave;  the crack yawned wider. Steadily it
grew-a tiny fraction of an inch-a quarter  -a half. It caught his eye.
Fascinated, he gazed-wider-wider. He staggered  out to the giant boulder
that hid his gold hoard. The quartz crushed down; the  boulders poised 
above, motionless like a cat before its prey. He struggled with  his gold,
weakly-they leaped into terrific life!  A trapper found a shaggy burro, a
poorly constructed camp, a few specimens  of very rich ore, a little  path
that led from the camp to the edge of a fresh rock  slide-nothing more.

The Spring Caravan  Second Prize Poem  BY GEORGE SHERMAN  Has no one seen
the long caravan Of the gypsy man?  'Tis strange  The sap has dripped from
the maple trees  Till the buckets are full, and the skis  Have been stored
away in a dusty room  With my ice skates and Grandma's loom.  The snow has
left the turnpike bare,  And the breath of Spring is in the air,  And the
March wind with a tyrant's eye Has driven the clouds across the sky  Like
ships with sails unfurled to the sea,  And the husky voice of the brook 
Has sung of the world's new imagery-  But I stand alone on the turnpike 
And look  For the gypsy man and his long caravan,  For that is the sign of
Spring to me.  Has no one seen the long caravan   Of the gypsy man?  I
have--  They came over the hill at the close of day  And made their camp
along the  highway,  And thru the hours of the still spring night  The
turnpike glowed with the luminous light  Of their  fires. And their violins
brought down  The stars on the gray-canvassed town;  And their lusty voices
joined  in a dance  That brought dreams of lace and wild romance,  Of a
wandering people skilled in everything- In cards and tea-cups and lines of
palms . .  Where was a canvassed city are smouldering  Fires; naught else,
you say? But I beg  No alms,  For the gypsy man and his long caravan  Have
left me smouldering fires and Spring.  One Hundred One

The Heart of Jim  (Honorable Mention)  By VADA MORFITT  Undoubtedly Jim
Randall was the ugliest man living. He had the look of  an over-tall tree,
with all its branches at the top. His arms dangled, and the   waist band of
his blue jean trousers perched jauntily on one hip. His neck was  long and
scrawny, his hair a riotous mass of flaming redness. But in atone-ment, 
Nature had given him the soul of a poet. Susan Petridge, spinster, kept the
little post office in Bridgeport, and I  always stayed with her during my
brief vacation. Summer boarders were her  specialty. How Susan despised
Jim. Her clean, well-regulated mind could not  tolerate physical laziness,
especially when it went hand in hand with physical uncleanliness.  Somehow
I liked Jim. He used to bring his poems for me to read, and  we had many an
interesting talk. He was a lonely fellow.  One day Jim got a paper through
the mail. Later more papers came and  many letters. He seemed preoccupied,
and I worried about him fearing he was  in trouble of some sort.  Several
weeks passed and I scarcely saw him. The letters kept coming. Then  one day
Jim came in with a hearty stride; his homely face beamed with joy.  "Well,
Miss, it's happened."  "But what, Jim?"  "Ah! She said she'd come; an'
Ma'am, she's a beauty!"  He drew out a letter and a much bedraggled
picture, and handed them to  me. The letter was on cheap paper, written in
round school-girl hand. It read:  "Dear Mr. Randall: I've thought about you
and your proposition a good  bit. I've decided to come if you still want
me. I'm not very strong or pretty,  but I'm willing and I'll do my best by
you. I'm awful  lonesome here and I've  never seen any outdoors 'cept the
park. I bet it's grand. You can count on me getting there next Wednesday. 
"Yours truly,  "Mary Sidney."  The letter made me want to cry and the
picture was nothing less than pathetic,  with its tired young-old face,
watery eyes, lips that turned downward, and such  an expression of
meekness. Jim seemed to fear I was displeased and said quickly,  "You see,
Miss, I answered a matrimonial ad. Me an' this lady has been corres-pondin'
 reg'lar now for about a month. We'll be married over to the Parks. I 
kinda thought you'd maybe help me to fix up my old shack afore she gits
here.  It ain't no kind o' place to take a lady."  Wednesday came as even
long- planned days do. Jim was all prettied-up and  waiting long before
stage time. He had hard work to control his eagnerness. At  last it came,
that lumbering old relic of another day, and stopped with a flourish  in
front of the post office. The driver helped the one passenger to alight
while  the eyes of half a hundred curious folk peeped out from advantageous
positions.  She seemed little more than a girl, and I felt a sudden rush of
pity for her,  so timid in that strange rough camp. Her luggage consisted
of one old straw suitcase and a blrdcage which she handled with extreme
care. Jim led the way  toward the rooming- house, walking a few paces ahead
as his code of ethics  demanded of a man, especially a man about to marry.

A week later I went at Jim's request to call on "Little Mrs. J m," as the 
boys all called her. She seemed glad to see me. She was so proud of the
mean  little cabin and its scattered fields, the mongrel puppy, the handful
of scrawny  chickens. Jim was happier than I had ever seen him. His usually
unkempt beard was painfully clean, his trousers patched and repatched. Even
his weather-beaten  face seemed somehow fresher and cleaner.  I did not go
back to Bridgeport for several summers, but I often caught myself wondering
about Jim. When finally I had the opportunity I found myself  as eager as a
child to get back to that gossipy little town.  The stage seemed
particularly slow, the driver unusually stupid. Finally well remembered
landmarks appeared, and my journey was soon ended. I alighted  as of yore
at the post office.  Finding Susan absent from her place of business, I
decided to lose no time  in making a call on Jim. I set out forthwith on
the dusty path picturing to myself  the improvements I felt I had every
reason to expect.  Just around a bend in the road I came face to face with
the Jim of former  days, if possible shabbier and more unkempt. "Why Jim,
I'm glad to see you!  I was just going to your place. Have you a lot of new
poems, and how is Mrs.  Jim?"  The poor fellow just stood looking intently
at the ground a few moments,  poking at a loose pebble with the toe of one
runover boot. "Well, Miss, little Mrs.  Jim ain't no more. I reckon this
life was too rough for her. She just naturally  faded away, an' ma'am, it's
pow'rful lonely  without her."  The years roll swiftly and man forgets his
sorrow and pain. But there is a  residue that enriches and enobles. To most
Jim's little wife was but a plain,  undernourished, uncultured bit of
driftwood; but she was Jim's flower in a desert  of thorns. Though the
flower has faded its fragrance lives on. Publishers who  fight over his
poems, and the public who await with eagerness for each new verse from his
pen wonder what gives them their touch of infinite sadness and wisdom.  But
you and I know. One Hundred Three

Valentines and Cupids  Third Prize Story  By DON TUNSTALL  The pupils of
the Sixth A were studying with an unwonted intensity. Not a  whisper
disturbed the accentuated quiet of the cheerful room; not a paperwad 
flicked against the freshly washed blackboard, nor did a clumsily passed
note drop  with conspicuous rustle to the oiled floor.  Miss Brooks had
promised them a valent'ne box and a quarter holiday. When  she had to leave
the room for a moment and Johnny Lewis, the class cut-up, began  one of his
antics, he was looked upon with such frowns of disapproval that he was 
instantly squelched, and, blushing furiously, subsided into his seat.  How
slowly the hands crept around the big solemn face of the clock in front  of
the room! How the minutes dragged. Time was interminable, for at ten
minutes  before dismissal they were to draw names.  Deep was the anxiety of
Jimmy Ryan and great was his anticipation  as he  awaited that fateful
hour. A few weeks before, Eloise Patterson had entered school,  capturing
in an instant all of the masculine hearts in the room. She was slight and 
rather pale complexioned; but she had beautiful black curls and deep brown
eyes,  which smiled at everyone impartially. Her father was the new
president of the  bank and lived in the big Curtis House on the hill. Much
to the envy of the other  little  girls, Eloise wore a different dress
almost every day. And it was rumored  that she was going to give a party
and invite all of her best friends.  Jimmy dreamed of her from the first
day he saw her. He worshipped her as  a slave may worship his queen. Jimmy
with the unruly hair, freckled face and up- turned  nose; with the worn
coat, the patched shoes, and the missing necktie-how  hopeless, he
realized,  was his affection. Yet he dreamed dreams and built castles,  and
in all of these little Eloise reigned as queen.  "All right, children, put
away your books," broke in the firm voice of Miss  Brooks.  A muffled sigh
of relief escaped as all the children hastily but cautiously  jammed their
books into their desks. Soon a breathless quiet reigned and all the  faces
were turned toward Miss Brooks in rapt expectancy.  "Now, children, all
write your names on slips of paper. George, you may col-lect  the boys'
names and Ralph, the girls'."  How closely Jimmy watched to see what kind
of paper Eloise wrote her name  on and how she  folded it. To his disgust
he noticed that every other boy was  watching with the same close
attention. The names were collected and passed. Jimmy thrust his hand into
the hat  and found a piece of paper that felt about right. With a thrill of
uncertainty he  withdrew it. Scarcely daring to breathe, he opened it.
"Miriam Winters!" How  unjust were the gods ! He was plunged from the
heights of rapture to the antithesis  of despair. But a faint beam of hope
shone through his melancholy. He could  trade.  With a wild shout school
was dismissed and they all went trooping out into  the yard with cries of,
"Who'd you get?" How'll you trade?" "I'll trade you  sights unseen." Jimmy
at last discovered the proud possessor of Eloise's name.  Billy Sherman had
drawn it and showed every indication of intending to keep it.  He was deaf
to all pleading and cajoling and offered only a passive ear to offers  of
money, marbles, chewing gum and bean shooters.  One Hundred Four

Aw, come on, Billy, pleaded Jimmy, "I'll do your 'rithmetic for you fer  a
week."  "Nope. I tell you I'm gonna  keep it myself," replied Billy, and
started walking  off toward home.  In a moment Jimmy caught up with him. He
would make the highest sacrifice.  "Here, Billy," panted Jimmy. "I'll give
you this if you'll trade. Miriam is an  awful nice girl, too."  In his hand
he extended a battered but still serviceable knife with two good  blades
and a screwdriver. Jimmy had won it as a prize for a composition the year 
before, and it was his dearest possession.  Billy began to yield. No other
boy in school had a knife like that. "I'11 tell you, Jimmy. I'll do it if
you'll give me that knife and pack my wood for a month."  Rather
reluctantly Jimmy agreed to the suggestion of the miniature Shylock.  It
was a lot, but it was for Eloise. So with a light heart  he parted with the
knife  and started for home and his chores.  Jimmy's father worked as
foreman in one of the sawmills and could only with  difficulty support his
large family. So Jimmy earned nearly all of his spending  money himself by
doing odd jobs. He knew better than to ask for money to buy  Eloise a
valentine. He had already fully determined to earn it himself some way. 
Just the valentine he wanted reposed in the window of Prigmore and Sears'
Drug  Store. It cost a fabulous sum-one dollar and seventy- five cents-but
it was the  nicest one in town and none other would do for Eloise.  There
were only four days till Friday. Jimmy put in wood, carried suitcases, 
weeded gardens and mowed lawns. In the morning before school, after school,
in  the evenings and sometimes at noon he toiled. But finally on Thursday
evening he  walked toward town with one dollar and eighty-five cents
jingling comfortingly in  his pocket. His hands were blistered, his back
ached, and for three nights he had  gone to bed dead tired. But in the
mornings he had seen Eloise again, and through-out  the day, and her
pleasant little companionable smile and cheerful "Hello, Jimmy"  had
spurred him on to unremitting effort.  And now his goal was almost
achieved. In sheer joy Jimmy kicked a rock  before him on the pavement. It
was fun to see it go rolling smoothly along. He  caught up with it and
delivered another kick. This time the rock did not hold quite  true to
form, but rose off the pavement, and as if guided by a magnet, headed
straight  for the basement window of old Mr. Squire's house. Jimmy's heart
ceased to  function for an instant and then  resumed its operation with
slow, deadening throbs.  The rock had held its course and, with a tinkling
shower of glass, had shattered the  window.  As the full significance of
the calamity dawned on Jimmy, he  stood stone-still  as if frozen to the
spot. In a daze he saw Mr. Squires with his cane tapping beside him,
hobbling hurriedly out of the house. Ordinarily he would have run, but he 
didn't seem able. And now it was too late.  "Ah, now I've got ye, ye young
rascal. You run right home and git me two  dollars to pay for that there
winder, or I'll tell the town marshal and he'll hev the  law on ye. It's
time suthin was done to these young reprobates, tearing around and 
destroying a decent, self-respectin' man's property that-a- way."  With
reluctant steps Jimmy started toward home. He lacked fifteen cents of  the
two dollars. The valentine was a thing of the past. He would try and get
the  rest of the money from his mother. Dimly these thoughts trickled
through his  brain. He seemed unable to think. Only a dull cognizance of
some great disaster  seemed to oppress him.  One Hundred Five

After confiding in his mother he secured the required fifteen cents and
re-turned  to pay for the window. How he had toiled and perspired for that
window!  And now it was all gone and he could give Eloise no valentine.
Tears welled in  his eyes and almost brimmed over, but he was made of
sterner stuff, so he sniffed  a few times, and with a furious dab of his
hand wiped away all traces of this effem-inate demonstration. 
Unconsciously his steps turned toward the drug store. He would have one 
last look at the treasure that was to have been his to bestow on the lady
of his  heart. But it was gone. Some more fortunate and affluent person had
purchased it.  Well, it didn't matter now, anyway.  Jimmy went home. He ate
a few dry, tasteless mouthfuls as an excuse for  supper and then retired
hurriedly to the family living room. There he busied him-self  with paper,
scissors and library paste. He would make a valentine of  his own.  He
painted designs, he drew hearts, he printed verses, but his finished
products  seemed woefully inadequate. He couldn't give any of these trashy
things to the  goddess of his dreams. He gave up in despair.  Long after
the rest of the family had gone to bed he sat with his head on his  arms.
Tomorrow was Friday. He had no valentine. Everyone knew he had  Eloise's
name. Eloise knew it, too. She would get many valentines and she would 
expect something from him. Was he to fail her? Jimmy's throat felt tight
and  constricted, much like it did at the time he had tonsilitis. It was a
sore, choking sensation. Life held no happiness in store for him. Raising
his head for a moment  to look around the quiet room, he found the familiar
objects blurred by a mist. He  wouldn't cry-he wouldn't-he wouldn't! Only
sissies and babies did that.  Then an idea occurred to Jimmy. He would
write Eloise a note for a valentine.  At least she would know that he
wanted to give her one. He got out his mother's  stationery and a much
abused pen. After biting the end of this for some time and  making several
false starts, he finally evolved this:  Dear Eloise:  I' can't give you no
valentine. I busted a window and had to pay for  it. So you see I haven't
no more money. I'm awfully sorry, Eloise,  'cause I like you and I think
you are the nicest girl there is.  From yours truelly,  JIMMY.  Came the
next day and the hour set for the distribution of the valentines. All  day
Jimmy had buried himself in his book and studiously avoided meeting the
gaze of Eloise who had looked his way quite frequently. The box was filled
to over-flowing  and some of the valentines were laid on the teacher's
desk. There was the  one dollar and seventy-five cent valentine. Ted Brown
had bought it and was  giving it to Eloise. There it lay, the price quite
unerased, in mute but glorious  testimony of the extreme worth of the
valentine. She would never even notice his  little note, thought Jimmy,
after getting such a lovely valentine.  Then the valentines were given out.
Two monitors were chosen. Everyone  had bought or made a valentine for the
one whose name he had, and most of the  boys had given another to Eloise.
Her desk was heaped high.  Now she was unwrapping them and reading. She
took the big one first.  Finally she came to the humble little envelope.
Jimmy looked unconcernedly out of  the window and prayed for a speedy
dismissal. It was taking her a long time to read it, he thought, as he
looked again and she was still absorbed.  Then came the welcome dismissal
bell. Jimmy jumped to his feet, made a  dash for the cloak room, and
started down the steps in a run. He was indiscreet.  He realized this when
lie saw the Principal coming toward him. His arm was  One Hundred Six

seized and he was propelled rather forcibly back to his room. On the way he
met  Eloise and passed her with downcast eyes. He was doubly disgraced now.
 "You may remain in your seat for twenty minutes, Jimmy," said Miss Brooks,
 "and next time perhaps you can remember to go out in a more orderly
manner."  Jimmy slumped in his seat. Time dragged and so did Jimmy's
spirits. What  is more lonesome than a deserted school building after
hours? It is as oppressive  as a prison, as gloomy as a tomb.  A voice
penetrated to his senses as from another world, "You may go now,  Jimmy.
I'm sorry this had to happen."  Without any perceptible relief Jimmy
struggled to his feet and stumbled to-ward  the door. He started across the
school yard and then a voice called to him.  It sounded sweet to him like
the warble of birds or like the trickle of water to the  parched wanderer
on the desert. It couldn't be-but it was-Eloise's voice.  "Jimmy, oh Jimmy,
wait a minute."  He turned and waited, eying one badly scuffed toe and
fiddling  with his cap  with both hands.  ",Jimmy, I- I--want to-thank you
for the valentine. I don't like the old boughten kind-that anybody can
give. Yours was the very nicest of all."  She thrust out a hand which Jimmy
seized awkwardly. He blushed deeply,  relinquished the hand, and found that
his organs of speech  were temporarily de-ranged.  But Eloise went on.
"And, Jimmy, I'm giving a party next Friday and you're the very first one
I'm inviting because I like you, too."  Jimmy had no appetite that night
either.  One Hundred Seven

The Trails To Fairyland  (Third Prize)  By PEARL BAILEY  "Where are the
trails to Fairyland?  And how do you go to Fairyland?"  Just a little lad
of four  Wanting to know so very much more  Than I shall ever know,  Though
I search the pages of all the sages  And seek till my eyes grow dim,  What
shall I find to answer him?  'Tis little enough, I trow.  Where are the
trails to Fairyland?  Do you remember the day when  I took your hand,  And
we went to the woods all fresh and sweet,  Where the moss was cool to your
wee  bare feet,  Where the violets hid so shy and fair  And with the lilies
perfumed the air?  Where the tiny stream came wandering by,  Reflecting
that speck of the clear blue sky;  And the birds in the trees as we  came
along  Hushed for a moment their glad, sweet song?  Surely that trail leads
to Fairyland-  A long shady trail to Fairyland,  A sweet, smelly way to
Fairyland.  "But the other trails to Fairyland-  Tell me all the trails to
Fairyland."  Then look at that fleecy cloud up there  Floating along in the
clear, pure air.  Let us go sailing, you and I,  Up and up. to that cloud
on high,  And seat ourselves in the white cloudboat; And away, and away,
and away we'll float  So swift, so free, so high in the air,  And no one
will guess that  we're riding there!  And we'll sail straight on to
Fairyland!  What a wonderful way to Fairyland!  What a swift, breezy way to
Fairyland!  One Hundred Eight

Oh, the Rainbow Trail, that's a beautiful way!  Looped up in the sky like a
ribbon gay!  Of course there's a very steep hill to climb,  And it may take
a very, very long time,  But you and I, we shouldn't mind;  On the  Rainbow
Trail there's much to find.  When we reach the top - what a glorious
thrill!  We'll coast right down  that long, long hill.  And we'll never,
never fear a spill  In a jolly ride down that beautiful hill.  And we'd
land  ker-plunk into Fairyland!  And startle the Fairies in Fairyland,  The
wee Fairy-folk in Fairyland.  He gurgles with laughter and cuddles my hand,
 "Tell me more ways to Fairyland!"  The sinking sun tells the end of the
day  And mingles its gold with the blue of the bay.  See, little one, see!
Away, away  Stretches  a golden path o'er the bay.  Let's walk down the
beautiful, shimmering trail;  We've never the need of a boat or a sail! 
The little fish in the water below  May follow and laugh as they see us go 
Right down with the sun into Fairyland!  Down, down with the sun into
Fairyland!  "Where are the trails-" but the Sandman has won.  The heavy
lids lower;; his long day is done.  The soft breeze whispers; the
night-hawk calls; And over us gently the twilight falls.  He smiles in his
sleep and I understand -  He's dreaming of more trails to Fairyland.  Dream
on, little one, safe on mother's breast.  Too soon come life's cares and
unrest.  Would you could dream on - 'tis so hard to live;  To see Reality
take more than she can give.  'Tis my joy  to take you to Fairyland,  Down
the old, old trails to Fairyland,  The Forever Trails to Fairyland.  i  One

San Juan Isles  The sea is blue 'round San Juan Isles,  And every summer
day  The waves, like little merry maids,  Romp up to laugh and play.  The

slender creeks where bleeding-hearts  Hang rosy heads in sleep.  Days

The San Juan Islands  A Sea-Girt Arcadia  In the lower reaches of Puget
Sound and the Gulf of Georgia, looking out  through the Straits of San Juan
de Fuca toward the Indies and the lands of  romance, on the chief trade
routes of the world's future commerce, lie the San  Juan Islands, or the
Puget Sound Archipelago. This spot is unique in charm  and beauty, in
perfection of climate, in easy, agreeable living conditions, in
health-fulness.  It is unique in the fact that it is an entire county of
sea and land, of  islands and inlets, 172 in number, varying in size from
fifty-eight square miles to the  area of a city lot. It is unique  in
climate, even in the Pacific Northwest, called  by Dr. Woods Hutchinson
"charmed land of the American Continent." It is known  as the Sunshine
Belt, because of the fact that rain-laden clouds sweeping in from  the
Pacific frequently pass over the islands without precipitating their
moisture  until they encounter the high barriers of the Cascade Range.  The
Archipelago embraces about five hundred square miles of sea and land,  of
which practically 180 square miles are island. San Juan, Lopez and Orcas 
Islands comprise more than three-fourths of the land area and support the
bulk  of the population. Shaw, Waldron, Stuart, Blakely and Decatur Islands
also  have prosperous communities, and a number of  the smaller islands are
inhabited.  Others are just waiting until the full charm of the district
becomes better known.  On each island is a wealth of game, deer and upland
birds. The sea and  lakes in Moran State Park provide delectable sea food
in wide variety, as well as  fresh-water trout. The two thousand miles of
shore line of Puget Sound, with  the addition of the Island Passage to
Alaska, afford cruising waters unequalled  elsewhere on the globe, in
sport, ideal sailing conditions, and scenic beauty.  The soil on the
islands produces fruit and vegetables in perfection. Pure,  fresh water is
found everywhere, and over  all is a temperate sun, kindly beneficent,  and
never oppressive. One sleeps under blankets every night of  the year. The 
environment is beautiful beyond the power of the pen to tell-islands and
inlets  with evergreen shores nestled in an emerald sea, some soft and
alluring in outline,  many more rugged and precipitous, and the entire
beautiful picture framed in a  horizon defined by dazzling snow-clad peaks
and mountain ranges.  The Archipelago lies close up against the British
Columbia line, and upon  San Juan Island the British flag once floated as
an emblem of British sovereignity  within the present limits of the United
States. For a period of fourteen years  (1859-1873) two armies were
stationed on San Juan Island. The American forces  were landed on the
southern end of the island under the command of General Pickett, and a
detachment of Royal Marines was landed at the northern end of  the island
under the command of Captain George Bazalgette. The San Juan  dispute was
finally settled in 1873 by arbitration, when William I of Germany  decided
in favor of the claim of the United States. Now we find erected at the 
northern end of the island a monument in remembrance of the English
soldiers.  And the old English blockhouse still stands as they left it. At
the southern end  of the islands stands a beautiful monument in memory of
the American forces who  were stationed there.  One Hundred Thirteen

On San Juan Island is the location  of the county seat, Friday Harbor, the 
only incorporated town in this modern  Arcadia, and the chief trading
center  of the islands. Here also is located the  Puget Sound Biological
Station, sup-ported  by an association of universities,  chief of which is
the University of Washington, and founded through the  zeal and vision of
an internationally  known scientist and naturalist,  Profes-sor  Trevor
Kincaid. This school of  biology is open for summer sessions of  six weeks
of intensive  study and is  attended by students from all parts of  the
United States as well as foreign  countries. The Bellingham Normal  School
will have classes there the com-ing  summer. New equipment is being  added 
continually, and the station ap-pears  destined to become one of the  most
important in existence.  At the northern end of the island we  find a small
town called Roche Harbor,  the home of the Roche Harbor Lime  Works,
producing twelve hundred bar-rels  of lime a day, which is the largest 
lime plant in the world. It is known  world wide for its production of fine
 quality lime.  San Juan Island has the largest population of any of the
islands and is  easily first in production. Its valleys  are rich and
beautiful, among the best  in the Puget Sound district.  One Hundred

Orcas Island is the most rugged in contour and picturesque in formation of 
the islands. It has fine bathing  beaches, and is particularly popular with
vaca-tionists.  From it rises Mount Constitution, 2400 feet high, from
which one can  catch a panoramic view of sea and islands framed in their
setting of snow-clad mountains that for a picture of sheer beauty would be
hard to duplicate. Even  distant cities are visible. On  this island and
embracing most of Mount Con-stitution  is the 4800 acre estate of Robert
Moran, a retired  business man of  Seattle. Out of this 4800 acres he has
recently carved 2700 acres, taking in  Mount Constitution, two lovely
mountain lakes, and a wealth of fascinating wood-land,  which he has given
to the State of Washington as the Moran State Park.  This is to be enlarged
to 5000 acres, and will form one of the most wonderful  public parks in the
world, a combination of sea, mountain, and beauty of natural forest. It has
a natural growth of wild game and bird life. Deer espiecially  can be found
in great numbers. Mountain Lake, at an elevation of 1200 feet,  and Cascade
Lake at 350 feet, are both stocked with trout. The state has pro-vided 
camping places with fire and sanitary arrangements for campers. Nearby 
nestles  Mr. Moran's remaining 2000 acres and his home, one of the show
places  of Puget Sound.  Close by this  fascinating region are East Sound,
Crescent Beach, Orcas, Olga,  West Sound, Deer Harbor, and Doe Bay, leading
vacation resorts of the islands  with excellent bathing beaches where
hundreds disport themselves throughout  the summer months. There is no
undertow or hidden danger, and bathing even  for  young children is quite
safe. There is good fishing on the larger islands and  sea fishing
everywhere. It is the yachtman's, boatman's, and canoeist's paradise.  The
country never loses its charm. Always there is a new bay or a new trail to 
explore, and always new beauties lying in wait for the adventurer. Never
are the lights and the shadows just the same; it is an ever-changing
picture and  never-ending delight, especially to the sea lover.  It is a
wonderful place in which to forget life's troubles and worries, to get back
to Nature in her happiest mood, to regain health of the body, mind and
spirit.  One Hundred Sixteen

them wantonly to foam  The golden distances across the sea  Are shot with

The sun moves slowly down the flaming West  And flings its rays across to
set aglow  The islands rocking on the cool waves' crest  And the great

birds' delight;  Splendor of mist and rainbow-and the still  Slow flight of
butterflies. Sweet liquid clear,  The lark flings to the dawn his lyric
notes.  And what inspired psalmist have we here?  What song of pure,
enthralling sweetness floats  From yonder Elm-tree in the midnight hush?

Hallowe'en party! A dimly lighted room. Shadows of witches and ghosts 
flitting across the indistinct walls. An atmosphere of mysterious
exaltation among  those who had just survived the preternatural exercises
of initiation. The presi-dent, Doris Patrick, gave her address welcoming
the new members-and our  activities for the year had begun. One of the
biggest events of the year was the annual banquet held March 7,  in Edens
Hall club room. Floral decorations consisted of pink carnations, which 
blended beautifully with the rose and gray motif of the table. Sparkling
wit and  humor predominated in toasts that were given and were responded to
nobly by  our toast mistress, Doris Patrick.  Aletheian Club meetings have
consisted of interesting discussions on problems  of the day, chief among
which was Miss Longley's talk on Hawaii. Programs  have included music,
art, and works of prominent men and women.  Silently our old owl has led us
into realms of lofty ideals, and was instrumental  in our winning the
banner in the "Winter School Vaudeville."  The club owes its splendid
success to Miss Crawford, our capable sponsor,  who has helped in every
possible way. We were delightfully entertained at a  tea given by Miss
Crawford at the home of Miss Longley.  Aletheia will ever be led onward to
fulfill the lofty ideals and ambitions  of our symbol-the owl, which
signifies Life, Purity and Truth.  That we have shown great interest in our
surroundings is attested by the fact  that we planted two hundred bulbs on
Sehome Hill.  Fortunate indeed, has been Aletheia in having Rebecca Arnell 
as one of  her members. Both the club and school are indebted to her for
the part she  played in winning again the Allison Cup.  One Hundred Twenty

Alkisiah Club  The Alkisiah Club, which is about to begin its twenty-fifth
year, is very proud  to be the oldest club in the Normal, as well as the
only Federated club. Many  changes have taken place in these years, but the
club, as the name Alkisiah implies,  keeps its goal always, "In the Near
Future." Of our three objectives: namely,  public speaking, public service
and current problems, the second-public service-has  been stressed this
year. One of the first activities was the candy sale to raise  the ten
dollars  assigned to each Federated club for the Louvain Library
Restoration  fund. The library at the University in Louvain, Belgium, was
destroyed during the  war. This fund is being raised by American Colleges
in response to a wish ex-pressed  by Cardinal Mercier when asked by a body
of club women just what he wished most that the United States should do for
Belgium.  In December the club sent a doll to the Tacoma Women's Club
Bazaar, to help  swell the community Club House fund. This Dutch doll
carried a bouquet of tulips  to remind recipients that Bellingham is the
home of the tulips.  The days just before Christmas were brightened by the
sale of blooming Nar-cissi.  The sale of seals for the Anti-Tuberculosis
Association was also held, this  last being an old club custom.  In
co-operation with the Home Economics Department, Home Products week  was
called to the attention of the school during the week of February 19-21. 
Recently the Alumni of the club living in Bellingham who were active
members  in the past, have organized that they may keep in touch with the
club, even though  not in school. The money left in the treasury has been
turned into a fund for a  cabin at Normalstad.  Our annual club banquet was
held in February and was a most enjoyable  affair. Many Alumni were
present, showing the true club spirit  of "Once an Alki-siah,  always an
Alkisiah."  This ends another successful club season under the leadership
of our ever-willing  and helpful club sponsor, Miss Moffatt.  One Hundred

College Club  The College Club was organized on the campus during the fall
quarter. Those  students who  had previously attended another college or
institution for three  quarters, and who were able to maintain a  B
average, were eligible for membership.  The purpose of the Club was to
promote scholarship, school spirit, and in  general to further academic
interests.  Initiation was held February 2 in the big gym, and ten  pledges
were taken into  the Club. The gymnasium, decorated in the Club colors of
blue and gold, presented  a charming background for the impressive
initiation ceremony conducted by Presi-dent Dorothy White. Afterwards the
new members put on an interesting program.  The rest of the evening was
spent in dancing.  A second initiation was held during the spring quarter,
April 19, and a number  of new pledges taken into the Club. The last
important event of the spring quarter  was an enjoyable informal dance,
which came in May.  WINTER QUARTER  DOROTHY WHITE President  HAROLD

Leowyrtha Club  Long ago, when this country was young, there were Indians
here. They had  no books, but they heard their history and literature from
the leowyrhtas or story  tellers. Since then many things have changed. No
longer do the people gather  around the leowyrhtas to receive all
information. They have  their books, but even  so, the story-teller is as
popular as ever and is as much enjoyed.  Now in the great  school called
the Bellingham Normal, there were many wise  people who saw the need of
promoting the art of story-telling. Thus was the  Leowyrhta Club dreamed of
and organized, and to this day we have the club.  The purpose of the club
is to tell stories. Every Saturday morning several  members go to the North
Side Library to conduct the story hour for the children.  In the afternoon
several other girls go to the South Side Library to tell stories to  the
children who live in that vicinity. Furthermore, many girls have worked
with  the Extension Department and have told stories at P. T. A. meetings. 
Not only do the Leowyrhtas tell stories, but they write stories also. One
of  the sweetest tales ever told, "The Sugar Kingdom," was written by a
Leowyrhta  member.  Long live the Leowyrhta Club, the best on the campus!
Its present members  will never forget the banquet at Hotel Leopold, or the
initiation in the Cafeteria.  And here is to the sponsor and honorary
members, Miss Jacobs, Miss Montgomery  and Miss Sperry.  One Hundred

Edens Hall  Since its erection two years ago, Edens Hall has come into
popular demand  with girls from outside of 'Bellingham. Long before any
quarter begins, all rooms  are filled and a long waiting list is on hand. 
The attractive, homey atmosphere of the dormitory is an inducement to the 
girls to spend most of their time in the building. Better lighting
equipment has  been installed this year to facilitate studying.  The  girls
who room at the hall and other students who live nearby, eat in the  dining
room of the building. Meals are prepared and supervised by Miss Schwartz, 
a graduate dietitian. Excellent, well-balanced meals are served at a very
reason-able  price.  After dinner, the girls spend an hour in recreation.
The small hall upstairs  is generally well filled with dancers. Other girls
prefer to spend the time in  walking about the campus or visiting their
school mates in other rooms.  Miss Headrick, social director of Edens Hall,
supervised a very delightful  social program this year. The first event was
a real "spooky" Hallowe'en party.  During the evening ghostly figures felt
their way up and down mysterious stairs,  winding finally to the dark
attic, where terrible tales were told.  At Christmas, the reception hall
was crowded with "kiddies,"  who were  entertained with a Christmas tree,
candy and presents.  Three dances were given by the girls. The first,
attended by about seventy-five  couples, was in the nature of a Valentine
dance. St. Patrick, in his glory  of green, lead the second affair, given
in his honor during the month of March.  The May Day Ball, on April 26, was
a great success. It was, perhaps, the most  attractive of all in
decorations. Pastel tulips furnished the motif for the invitations, 
programs, and decorations.  On Washington's Birthday, those girls who
stayed for the vacation, enter-tained  those who did not dance and so did
not care to attend the mixer at the  Armory. About 150 were present.  Many
other enjoyable affairs of an informal nature are on the calendar, such  as
making fudge in the kitchenette, or inviting two or three girls to share  a
box  from home. On the whole, the Edens Hall girl feels herself privileged
in her  opportunities for daily contact with more than a hundred other
girls living  dormitory life.  One Hundred Twenty-four

Philomethean  Chemistry Annex, November, 1923.  An earthquake, accompanied
by a severe electrical display, rocked the Philo-methean  Literary Society
headquarters while they were in the midst of an initiation  last night. The
tremors began about 8:30 and continued at frequent intervals for  two
hours, thus instilling in the heart of each candidate proper respect for
the powers  that be. The damage consisted of five pairs of black and blue
shins, received by  falling downstairs blindfolded; one case eggs, broken
while in transit; and a wrecked  keg of cider. Several gross doughnuts were
also missing.  Mr. Philippi's Home, November 24, 1923.  The members of the
Philo Club were entertained in honor of the sixteenth  birthday anniversary
of the club at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Philippi. It  proved to be
one of the most delightful events of the season. The rooms were
ef-fectively  decorated in green and white, the club colors.   The main
diversion of the evening was the Philo crap game in which Roswell  Oliver
took high honors. "Tarzan" received the "booby prize." Following a short 
program of music and speeches, refreshments were served. Considerable
ceremony  accompanied the cutting of the birthday cake.  Miss Headrick laid
claim to being the oldest Philo present, while the honor  of being the best
looking went to President Fisher. Eighty invitations were issued  for the
party.  One Hundred Twenty-six

Chemistry Annex, February 7, 1924.  Seven persons were killed and eight
terribly mutilated in a head-on collision  between the Philo initiation
committee and a score of candidates last night. Three  escaped with  minor
injuries, although it is expected they will bear scars for life.  Those in
charge of the committee were  absolutely heartless in the treatment of
their  victims. Of those who managed to escape from the collision, some
were electro-cuted,  some poisoned, and still others smothered.  Later News
Note-- Reports today state that dead and injured in the collision  last
evening have been revived by the wonderful discovery of T. Cederberg, but
do  not state who discovered him. It now appears that the chief damage was
done to  Buns and Dogs.  Auditorium, March 7, 1924.  A Chautauqua running
for "five nights" was presented to the student body of  B. S. N. S. in
their assembly this morning by the Philo Club. Features of the pro-gram 
were the Sing Sing Musical Troupe; Scara Moustache, a Roumanian dra-ama; 
Miss Ate A. Board, in crayon sketching; and Mine. Crowder-Miller in a
reading,  "The River of Stars." The White Man's Glee Club, scheduled for
the fifth night,  did not appear, due to a previous engagement with the
instructors.  Little Gym, March 13, 1924.  The Philo Club won the
basketball championship of B. S. N. S. by defeating  the Rural Life Club,
38-11, in a roughly contested game. The Philos had previously  defeated 
the Thespians, 20-17, and Rural Lifers, 27-21. This victory leaves the 
Philos with a clean slate and gives them the right to represent B. S. N. S.
in the  national conference for the propogation of cruelty to basketball
players.  P. S.-This happened last night.  EDITORIALS  To Mr. Phillippi,
our club sponsor, who  has helped us, guided us, inspired us  to our best
efforts, and has been one of us, we owe and give our sincerest thanks.  As
we view the club activities for the past year, we feel that our time has
been profitably and pleasantly spent. We look forward with sorrow to the
time when  we will leave it all behind, but we know that pleasant memories
will be our portion  to carry with us.  Normalstad, May, 1924.  Many tired
but happy Philos resumed their various school burdens Monday  after a most
delightful week-end party at the recently completed lodge at Normal-stad.

y  Thespian Club  Yes, I should say they did initiate me, and after I had
been shot, had eaten  "cat meat with fur on," had drunk "carbolic acid,"
and had bobbed for blindfolded  apples, I felt that if ever I was to be  a
Thespian, I surely was one at the conclusion  of such an evening. Later,
though, when I signed my name to the roll book, I  knew that I was a
Thespian for always, in spirit as well as in name.  We elected Horace
Walker to be our first quarter's president and under his  worthy rule the
club had several most excellent meetings. The plays, "The Pot-  Boilers"
and "He Said 'N She Said," were worked out by groups  of members and  then
presented in the regular meetings for appreciation and study of their
dra-matic possibilities. The lives of the authors were also studied.  We
found out, one night,-by what means we are not at liberty to disclose-that 
our honored and revered sponsor, Mr. Raskopf, knows "What Every Woman  
Knows." He confessed that he should not have revealed the secret to such an
 exuberant group, however, when a few days later, it was rather publicly
noised  about that a member of this austere faculty knew what every woman
knows. Even  so,--but lie does.  One Hundred Twenty-eight

Once a Thespian, Always a Thespian. That means more than words can  express
to the Thespians who are alumni of the school. Since the spirit of the 
club is not only to develop loyalty and co-operation among the present
members  but also to tie the old members to the present group, the annual
Home- Coming Ban-quet  is one of the biggest features of the club year. On
the evening of February 22,  in the beautifully decorated dining rocm of
the Victoria Hotel, we enjoyed the re-newal  of friendships with those of
our numbers who are out in the field. The  program of music, readings, and
toasts will long be remembered.  To our president the second quarter, Miss
Eleanor Whisner, is due the grateful appreciation of the members for her
capable supervision of the banquet plans.  Initiation night is not the only
time that brings hardship to members, as a  certain two of the club will
testify. Having enjoyed their birthdays the day pre-vious,  the two were
most unsuspicious of the treat which was in store for them. But the
excitement of one of their friends was intense as she rose to suggest that,
 upon adjournment, we  attempt to celebrate the event fittingly. When the
doors  were well-barred, we proceeded to do so, trying as best we could to
subdue our own  mirth and drown the shrieks of the victims.  Don Tunstal,
succeeding to office the third quarter, came to the chair at a  busy and
eventful time.  The play, "The Flitter Mouse," was particularly well
received by the club  when it was presented one evening by the members, in
the auditorium.  The Treasure Island Dance was another affair on the
calendar which was enjoyed by the club members. The rooms were transformed
into dimly lighted  ghostly nooks, suggestive of the pirates' dens. Chests
of gold made admirable  resting places for the ladies, who were hardly
recognizable in their red, yellow  and green head-pieces. Musty old maps
revealed the places of meeting for the  pirates.  To promote the
construction of a lodge at Normalstad, the club presented the  three-act
play, "A Successful Calamity."  One Hundred Twenty-nine

Normal Drama Club  The Normal Drama Club was organized in the spring of
1923 for the purpose  of keeping alive the spoken drama and to present to
the student body each quarter  some of the best plays. The interests of the
club are closely allied with those of  the Drama League of America and the
Little Theatre Movement. In the near  future, it is hoped, membership in
the Drama League may be granted. Mr. Victor Hoppe is sponsor to the club
and directs all the plays. The  members assist in the production of each
program by handling the various business  transactions, the stage, and all
of the advertising, in this way gaining valuable  experience.  Eligibility
is determined by a tryout each fall before a faculty committee  headed by
Mr. Hoppe, or by participation in a previous Normal production.  One

In the summer quarter the club presented Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's 
Dream" at the Greenwood Theatre on the campus. The play was given two
nights,  and the audience for each night was estimated at  two thousand

Rural Life Club  On the first Thursday evening of the school year, 1923-24,
there came together,  in response to a call on our bulletin board,
seventeen of our sturdy Trail-Blazers  who had returned from field and
forest, from sea and busy city to continue their  study at the
Normal-by-the-Sea.  The joy of reunion, the relating of adventures, the
messages from those who  have taken their places along the highways and 
by-ways of life, featured the first  meeting of the ninth year of our
existence as an organization in this institution to  which we again
declared our loyalty as we affirmed our determination to carry on 
-faithful to the purposes of our club.  The aims of the Rural Life Club, as
set forth in our constitution, are to pro-mote  interest in and provide
opportunity for literary programs; to make a study of  and to present
programs and  other activities appropriate to the communities into  which
its members may go as teachers; to provide social and recreational
opportuni-ties  for its members; and to support and in every way further
the interests of the  Washington State Normal School at Bellingham.  In
pursuance of the realization of these aims, the club has spent a busy, a 
happy, and, we believe, a serviceable year. The literary efforts of the
club have  been confined to our regular literary programs and contributions
to all-school and  assembly programs in co-operation with the literary
clubs of the school. It is our  purpose to present programs that are
educational, interesting and entertaining;  typical programs for community
use.  One Hundred Thirty- five

Our club is a literary club, but we have not forgotten to play. Long will
be  remembered the delightful Christmas party to which we were bidden by
"Ye Goode  Patron Saints," Dr. and Mrs. Miller. The attractive drawing
rooms with the  wealth of Christmas trimmings, the Christmas trees, the
fireplace with the yule log  continuously blazing, the season's cheer, the
appropriate festivities, the heap of  gifts from Santa Claus' pack, the
delicious culinary dainties, and finally the Christ-mas  carols sung with
the fervor of joy and gratitude made it a never-to-be-forgotten  event in
the lives of us all.  The annual Heart Party and club banquet were
characterized by the novel  decorations, splendid entertainment, delicious
refreshments, and good times. The  competitive games and get-together
dinners and congenial fellowship with other clubs  added not a little to
our social pleasures.  Every true Rural Lifer is an ardent trail-blazer, a
devotee of the great out-of-doors,  hence hikes, informational and
recreational excursions, form a part of our  year's program. The annual
picnic concludes the social part of our happy year  with one jubilant,
riotous evening around the festive board.  We have endeavored to leave upon
the campus evidence of our love of nature  and our devotion to our alma
mater. An evening that contributed both work and  pleasure, a few blisters
and many hearty appetites, was that of our pilgrimage to  the summit of
Sehome planting poppy, foxglove, larkspur, marigold, hollyhocks, and 
bachelor buttons along the Sehome highway. Certainly there were eats and a
camp-fire.  It doesn't require a vivid imagination to complete the
description. We have  started a maple grove, eventually to include all
varieties of maple trees, at a suit- able  spot near the highway and, in
co-operation with Dr. Miller, we plan this year  to place a California
Redwood on this campus.  The Rural Life Club has been most fortunate in the
addition of honorary members. Dr. Miller has long been a member of this
club. At a picnic held at  Whatcom Falls soon after President Fisher's
arrival in Bellingham, the club was  most happy to receive President Fisher
and Mrs. Fisher and to add their names  to our roll. Miss Orpha McPherson
and Miss Sundquist have also honored  us with  their membership.  The club
is very grateful. to Miss Keeler and Mr. Heckman for their hearty
co-operation and interest in all the club activities. We feel that it is
due to our  capable sponsors and the excellent club spirit that the Rural
Life Club is fulfilling  its purpose.  One Hundred Thirty-six

W Club  The "W" Club is rather an infant organization, this being the
second year of  its life. It is an honorary organization of lettermen,
membership being limited to  winners of the official "W" in any of the four
major sports.  Its aims are of the highest, always striving to maintain and
increase the ath-letic standards of the school. It'boosts anything which
develops the athletic spirit,  clean competition, good fellowship, and
ideals of true manhood.  The "W" Club has a social side of its existence,
as well. It plans quarterly  banquets and sponsors a club dance each
quarter. The "W" Club Dance, given in  the second week of the spring
quarter, was a very delightful social affair, and may be  considered a
complete success  by those in charge.  The officers for the year, who were
responsible for the strenuous initiation  through which the fifteen new
members had to pass in February, were:  RANDOLPH DAWSON President  ED

One of the most pleasing social events of the year was the Y. W. C. A.
reception  held at Eden's Hall at the beginning of the fall term for the
students and faculty.  This was the first opportunity for all to meet and 
get acquainted. The room was  beautifully and artistically decorated for
the occasion. A pleasing program  of  readings, music and a skit was given.
 The Meetings Committee has done splendid work in securing speakers for the
 Thursday meetings. Some of the most prominent speakers were Dr. and Mrs. 
Howard Taylor of China, who also spoke in the assembly; Mrs. Andrews of
India;  Mrs. Webster of Africa; Mr. Vendymer, and Miss Heller, the Y. W. C.
A. travelling  secretary. Mrs. Campbell and Dr. Sattler, who are prominent
Bible teachers of  Seattle, were here January 17-20 for the annual Bible
Institute, and gave us eight  inspirational messages. Dr. Sattler's
messages on "The Cross" were vividly por-trayed,  and Mrs. Campbell's talks
on "The Personal Spiritual Life" left a deep  and lasting impression.  Nine
Bible classes have been conducted during the year under the leadership  of
Miss Sperry, Mrs. Fisher, Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Gunderson, Rev. McPhail and
Mrs.  Vaughan. The Book of Acts has been studied. There has been an
enrollment of  one hundred and fifty and an average attendance of
seventy-five.  Kathryn Harrison, Gertrude Flannigan, and Harold McTaggart
represented  our school at the International Student Volunteer Convention,
held at Indianapolis  during the Christmas holidays. We have four signed-up
volunteers and at  least  ten others who are contemplating a place in the
mission field as their life work.  Beside the opening reception there have
been several other social events. A  delightful Christmas Member party was
given in the Domestic Science rooms at  Christmas time, and a Valentine
Heart party at the home of Mrs.  Simpson on High  Street, on Valentine's
Day. As we go to press, "Ye Aulde Deestrict Schule" was  given  in the
auditorium May 9 and was a splendid success. A picnic at the lake  and a
breakfast on Sehome are in pleasant anticipation before the -close of the
year.  In the month of April Mrs. Mathes opened her home for a pipe organ
recital,  which she gave under the auspices of the Y. W. C. A., to the
young women of the  school.  New officers were elected for the coming year
during the spring quarter.  Frances Denniston has served faithfully as
president since Rebecca Arnell, our  former president, left at the end of
the winter quarter to attend the University.  Sybil Tucker has been her
able assistant as vice-president, Hulda Nelson has  served as secretary,
and Vivian Holcomb as treasurer.. Wilma Kohn is our repre- sentative  in
the Women's League.  New chairmen were appointed by the new president for
the committees. The  Social Service Committee has visited many lonely and
sick girls and has sent more than a hundred bouquets.  One of the finest
meetings of the year was the Sunrise Service held on Sehome  Hill, Easter
morning. Messages were given by Mary Thomas and Adrie Ault.  About one
hundred  and thirty were present and enjoyed the service.  The Y. W. C. A.
has been an inspiration for Christian work for many girls  and in the past
seven years twenty-two girls have gone to different mission fields. Among
these are the following: Maude Whipple, China; Mrs. Edna Whipple Gish, 
China; Bergliot Evenson, China; Susie Claussen, China; Mary Millican,
China; Nina  Gemmel, China; Clara Gordon, Korea; Lois Henderson, Korea;
Mary Campbell,  India; Emma Rexroth, India; Abbie Johnson Smith (deceased),

W. A. A.  The Women's Athletic Association, a comparatively new club, was
organized by  Miss Long in the fall of 1922.  The purpose of this club is
to promote high physical efficiency among women  of the Normal school, to
promote college spirit by developing inter-class athletics,  to provide
recognition of athletic ability, and to foster good citizenship.  To become
a member of this organization, one must obtain  at least a "C" grade  in
all classes, and earn the required 100 points. These points may be earned
under  four heads; namely, sports, health, general, and athletics. There
are many incen-tives  for members in this club. By earning 200 points, a
girl is entitled to her class  numeral. If she earns 400 additional points,
 she receives a letter B. Last and best  of all, by earning 1000 points, a
girl receives a white rough neck sweater. Every  girl strives for this and
sets sweater as her goal. After two years of work and ac- cumulating 
points, a few girls received sweaters this spring.  This year the W. A. A.
presented their second annual attraction. The success  of this
entertainment was largely due to the untiring efforts of Miss Frank and the
 committee in charge. The proceeds of these yearly entertainments are used
to purchase the sweaters earned by the girls.  They also have many good
times and hikes. Each quarter there is a schedule  of hikes which the girls
follow insofar as the weather permits.  They stand for good sportsmanship,
good health, and good times.  OFFICERS  RUTH GILL President  CARLA LA VIGNE

Newman Club  The Newman Club has been one of the most active organizations
in school  this year. Several new members joined the club roll and every
one of them has  had every reason to be glad his name is included.  Many
social affairs have been given, including the entertainment of the St. 
Martin's football team and the Vikings after the game played here November

Sourdough Club  There are two words in common use in Alaska. One is
Sourdough, and the  other is Cheechako. Robert Service has immortalized
these in his volume of poems  called "Songs of a Sourdough" and "Ballads of
a Cheechako." Old residents of  the North describe a Sourdough as a man who
came before the ice in the fall, and  saw it go out in the spring; in other
words, one who has been in for one winter. It  is said that in olden days
in every old prospector's cabin on a shelf behind the  stovepipe  could be
seen a bowl which contained sour dough from the previous  baking. This was
used as yeast to be mixed in with the dough at the next baking.  When he
used any he would replace it with the same quantity of fresh dough, sure 
to be soured before he baked bread again.  The Cheechako is a Chinook word
that means greenhorn, and every prospector  until he had been on the
Klondike for a year was so regarded. The first thing the  Cheechako was
supposed to learn was to make sourdough bread, and he usually  would borrow
some of this yeast from some old-timer down the trail until he had  his own
sour dough, and so earned his graduate title.  The aim of the club is to
bring together all Alaskans for social gatherings  and to make Alaska
familiar to other students. The officers of the club were:  FIRST QUARTER

One of the first social events of the season was the annual banquet given
by. the  Sourdough Club in the club rooms of Edens Hall. It was a grand
reunion of resi-dents  of Alaska. Twenty-three persons, including  the
honorary members, were  present. The banquet room was attractively
decorated with two hundred beautiful  hand-made Indian baskets which were
loaned by Mr. and Mrs. Crimmins, formerly  of Alaska. A feature of the
refreshments were bread and rolls made from wheat  grown and milled in the
Fairbanks district, furnished by Mr. and Mrs. Shiels.  A toast was given by
the president, after which each member told from what  part of Alaska he
came. Mr. M. J. O'Conner, a pioneer Alaskan, spoke on "Tc  Alaska and 
Back." He paid an eloquent tribute to that territory and its sterling 
pioneers, telling of its scenery, its struggles, its lack of
transportation, its big game,  and its homes.  Elizabeth Bennett related a
catchy story about a cultured Southern girl, who  developed into an Alaskan
Sourdough.  Archie W. Sheils, head of the Alaska department of the Pacific
American  Fisheries, discussed Alaska from the educational standpoint, as
the Commissioner  of Education had featured this on the Harding tour. Miss
Watson led the club  song. During the roll call, Philip Crimmins appeared
in native Alaskan costume.  Mr. Sheils dwelt on the work of the American
girl in educational activities in  Alaska, commending her for her
alertness, energy, and perseverance. He gave a  summary of what outside
capital has done and is trying to do to build up industries  in Alaska, and
drew a glowing picture of its possibilities. The story of the terri- torial
 school was given, but stress was placed on the native work as being more 
unique.  "In Alaska, especially in the outlying districts, the government
school teacher  may be said to be an honest-to- goodness 'Jack of all
trades.' Any of you, who may  have read Mark Twain's book, 'The Connecticut
Yankee in King Arthur's Court,'  will remember that 'Hank,' the Yankee, was
a kind of an all around fixer, and when  King Arthur offered to confer upon
him any honor or title that he might select, he  chose to be known as the
'boss.' Well, the government teachers in an outlying  Alaska village may, I
think, be truly styled, 'a twentieth century Hank,' and, like  him, if they
show the proper disposition to guide, rather than drive the native, they 
will soon find themselves in truth the 'boss.' To one who simply wants to
be a teacher in the narrow schoolroom sense, my advice would be-keep away
from a  government teacher's position in Alaska, but for the one who really
wants to do  things, I know of no place where there is greater opportunity
to make good. In  the North the teacher must be ready to be a friend rather
than a teacher."  One Hundred Forty-three

Dearest Peggy:  When school opened last October, there were only two of our
club members  back in school. You know our club was founded in September,
1916, and was called  the "campus baby." Every year since we have had a
lively turnout. Anyway, the  name "Ohiyesa" means "winner.  Well, we were
out  to win, the two of us. Prospects were dark, but we were  especially
fortunate in having the Misses Osborne, Brooks, and Lasley for sponsors. 
So, before the fall quarter was over, we had a lively bunch, the membership
list  being almost closed. During this quarter the club sold pie and cider
each week at the Recreation Hour. Before the end of the quarter, Miss Leta
Brooks gave an  interesting talk on "My Impressions of New York." Just
before vacation we had  a Christmas tree with all the trimmings, and Mr.
Marquis made a perfectly charm-ing  Santa Claus.  At one of our meetings
during the quarter, Miss Adele  Jones talked to us on  "My Experiences
Overseas During the War," and at another meeting Miss Olive Edens lectured
to us on "Memories of Paris." We enjoyed these talks greatly. We  were
fortunate to have  much musical talent in our club, and in January a girls'
 quartet was organized, Jeanie, Olga, Hildur and Grace being the members. 
Our annual banquet was held March 15 at 7:30, in the Tulip Room at the
Hotel  Leopold, with twenty-five members present. The banquet room was
charmingly  decorated with daffodils and ferns, carrying out our colors of
green and gold. As  you know, it is a tradition with our club to hold our
annual banquet as near St.  Patrick's Day as possible. It was a perfect
success, and much credit is due Ardis  and Nona, who spent hours working
out the menu, program and scheme of decora- tions.  President Eunice sang
"When Irish Eyes Are Smiling," and Jeanie sang  "Violets." After the
banquet was over, we sang and danced until late.  It was at this banquet
that we decided upon our future policy in regard to  keeping in touch with
the club and with each other. So remember our annual re-union and banquet
here next year, Peggy. There will be a crowd of alumns back,  and we expect
high times. And whatever you do, don't forget to write.  Yours,  DOT.

MARKUSON WATTS TUCKER THOMAS  The Women's League  In order "to strengthen
the spirit of loyalty and good fellowship among women  students; to develop
co-operation between the student body and the administrative  officers of
the school; to provide a means by which the women of the school may express
opinions on matters of interest to them; to encourage high ideals of
character  and social standards," the Women's League of the Washington
State Normal at  Bellingham was established.  It is to our dean, Miss Adele
M. Jones, that we give our sincerest thanks for  her efforts which were so
instrumental in affecting the organization of the league.  Miss Jones, who
has always had the good of the students at heart, has been the  inspiration
of the girls in working out plans for the constitution. Under her
leader-ship,  a committee of ten girls, elected for that purpose, framed
the constitution.  Miss Constance Markuson, having the honor of being the
first president, comes  to the position with an already excellent
experience in girls' club work. With the  co-operation of the girls of the
school, the league came to a position of prominence  before the close of
the school year.  The legislative power of the league is vested in the
Commission, which is  composed of the captains of the twenty groups, and
also of a representative  from  the Y. W. C. A. and one from the Women's
Athletic Association. The groups just  mentioned are the smaller units into
which the league is divided with the purpose  of giving each girl an
opportunity to express her own desires and opinions.  One of the loveliest
social events sponsored by the league was the Mother's Tea.  This was given
in the beautifully arranged drawing room of Edens Hall on the  afternoon 
of May 11. Since not all out-of-town girls could bring their own mothers, 
many house mothers and friends of the school were invited. Small corsages
were  presented to the guests. The program of readings  and music was given
at intervals,  so that every person might hear a portion of it.  Another
new and delightful social event of the year, which, it is hoped, will 
become a custom, was the entertainment of the  girl graduates of the
Fairhaven and  Whatcom high schools.  Many little boys and girls appeared
in sunbonnets, straw hats, and pig-tails at  the Kid's Party for the little
girls of the school. Edens Hall was "butifully"  decorated and the ladies
in charge told the very "bestest" fairy stories. Happy  squeals and shouts
greeted the refreshments designed to delight childish hearts.  One Hundred

INSPIRED REPORTING  The genius of a certain Arkansas editor showed itself
recently when he printed the following news item in the local columns of
his paper:  "Miss Beulah Blank, a Batesville belle ,of twenty summers, is
visiting her  twin brother, age thirty-two."-Arkansas Taxpayer.  A WISE
CHANGE  A benevolent old lady was walking along the street when she
observed a  beggar. She stopped and looked with compassionate sympathy at
the man, and  then placed a coin in his hand.  "My poor fellow," she said,
"here is a quarter for you. Goodness gracious,  it must be dreadful to be
lame! But I think it would be  worse to be blind."  "Yer right, lady,"
agreed the beggar. "When I was blind I was always  getting counterfeit
money."-The Continent.  THE CLASH  He: "Wonderful red sunset."  She: "Yes,
but I shouldn't have worn this shade of pink."  PLAY POST OFFICE  She was
bidding her lover a fond farewell, for he was going on a prolonged 
business trip around the world.  Tearfully she clung to him and asked: "My
dear Adolf, will you be true to  me when you are far away? Promise me that
you will write to me from every  town you visit !"  And as he gathered her
in his arms, he cried: "O Ada, is it love that prompts  you to say this?
Ada, swear to me, do you really love me-or are you merely  collecting
foreign postage stamps?"-Calgary Daily Herald.  HIS LANDS AND ESTATES  It
was at a fashionable wedding. The bridegroom had no visible means of 
support save his father, who was rich.  When he came to the stage of the
service where he had to repeat: "With all  my worldly goods I thee endow!
!" his father said in a whisper that could be heard  all over the church:
"Heavens! There goes his bicycle !"-Tit-Bits.  HIS HABIT Said he,
nervously, "What on earth will your father say when he knows we're  engaged
?"  "0!" she replied, "he'll be simply delighted-simply delighted. He
always  is."-Tit-Bits.  Mr. Lawson writes on the board in History 14 C,
"General Aims."  Herbert Philippi: In what war was Aims a general?  One

to adopt a new "line." It was  decided that "keen" and "rare" were used too
often, so "eager" and "underdone"  were substituted. Soon after, Dorothy
was invited out to a home for dinner. On  sitting down to the table she
remarked, "Th:s certainly is an underdone treat."  EDENS HALL TRAGEDY  Eve:

PRETTY FAST PUNCH  Leona Kamb: The orchestra for the dance will be about
twenty-one dollars  and the punch will run around twelve dollars.  THE
ETERNAL WOMAN  Della: Dewey has no manners whatever. Why, when I was
talking to him  last night, he yawned nine times.  Helen: Perhaps, my dear,
he wasn't yawning; he might have wanted to say  something.  NO INSINUATIONS
 Mary Ballard: Mr. Salisbury told me to stand on my own feet-  Mabel
Turner: When was that? Were you dancing with him? Polly Parrot: My gosh,
woman, what have you done to your hair?  Marie Le Compte: "Why, it's

sure has a crush on me," murmurs the upholstery of the sofa in  the Edens
Hall beau parlor, as George Curtis sits down.  Mr. Salisbury: What is the
culture epoch theory?  Harold Crawford (wearily): I pass.  Mr. Salisbury:
You're mistaken. You flunk. She: I'm telling you for the last time, that
you can't kiss me.  He: Ah, I knew you'd weaken eventually! Mary: Is your
room-mate considerate?  Mabel: I should say she is. Why she doesn't come
home at night for fear  of waking me.  POORLY TRAINED  Tarzan: Will that
watch tell time?  Don: No, you have to look at it.  O MISTER!  She frowned
on him and called him Mr.,  Because in fun he'd merely kissed her  And then
for spite  The following night,  This naughty Mr. kissed her sister.  One

THE WATCH ON THE RHINE  Frosh: Are you a German professor?  Mr. Hoppe: Why
no, what makes you ask that?  Frosh: Because your marks are so low.  Tommy:

you ask him? He's sitting behind us with Marie.  Miss Keeler: What is the
executive department?  Ethel: I don't just rcmmber, but I think it's the
governor's suite of rooms.  Training School pupils to Mr. and Mrs. Hedges:
Hello, Miss Belton! - -  Hello, Mr. Belton.  NO WORDS WASTED  A teacher in
Illinois set for her pupils the task of writing a composition about  the
Sangamon River, which flows through the town, and told them to say at 
least three things about the river.  The shortest and pithiest paper was
handed in  by a youngster who had written:  The Sangamon River: I have
lived near it. I have skated over it. I have  fallen into it.-California
Christian Advocate.  AS CONGRESS MEETS  The teacher was giving the class a
lecture on "gravity."  "Now, children," she said, "it is the law of gravity
that keeps us on this earth."  "But please, teacher," inquired one small
child, "how did we stick on before  the law was passed?"-The Tatler
(London).  A BACHELOR'S VISION  A man visiting an asylum saw a patient
sitting on a rocking-horse.  "That's a bad case," said his guide. "He often
 sits on that horse for hours,  and we cannot get him to move. He was
jilted by a girl."  Continuing his tour, the visitor arrived at a padded
cell where a man was  rushing about and banging his head against the 
cushions.  "Won't he hurt himself ?" inquired the visitor.  "O, no,"
replied the guide: "these are pneumatic  cushions."  "What has brought him
to this ?"  "O, he married the girl who jilted the man you saw on the
rocking-horse."  As GOSSIP GOES  "My dear, have you heard the latest about
the Smythe woman? Don't stop  me if you have !"-Life.  One Hundred

QUITE PARTIAL  Inquisitive wcman's ninety-ninth questicn: "And have you
always been partial  to colors ?"  Artist (fed up): "Very partial even as a
boy, madam-when I had both  yellow jaundice and scarlet fever."   FRANK 
Frank: "When you proposed to her I suppose she said: 'This is so sudden.' "
 Gordon: "No, she  was honest and said, "lhe suspense has been terrible.' "
 FATAL  "I'd like to try that new dish they're all talking about," began
the important-looking  patron. "Bring me a double portion of
ma-jongg."--Country Gentleman.  WITH THE CUBS  Many remarkable statements
find their way into our daily newspapers. One  of the most astonishing was
made a few weeks ago by a paper published in the  Middle West. A bad fire
had swept the city, and among the buildings that had  burned was a large
icehouse. The account in the newspaper read:  "Miller's icehouse also
caught fire, and though a determined effort was made  to save the building
from the flames, it burned to the ground. With it twenty  thousand tons of
ice were reduced to ashes."-The Youth's Companion.  TO BE PONDERED OVER 
There would have been no occasion for Sherman's remark if Barnum hadn't 
been right.-The Kansas Legionnaire.  A LONG COURTSHIP  Mistress: "You look
a wreck today, Mary. Have you been sitting up all night  again reading a
novel?"  Mary: "Yes, mum; it was such a beautiful story, but they didn't
get married  till nearly four o'clock this morning !"-London Opinion. 
QUITE SO  "What's the best your car will do?"  "Run up a garage  bill." 
MAH JONGG FIRST  There has just come the story of the maid who went to the
lady of the house and said she feared she would have to find another place.
 "But why?" her alarmed employer asked. "Because," the maid replied, "I
fear your husband is losing his mind. I found  him on his hands and knees
in the living room, and when I asked him what he  was doing, he said he was
looking for the East Wind." One Hundred Sixty-eight

A faculty member was booked to speak at a small Oregon city. His host met 
him at the train and took him to his home for dinner. The good wife had
been busy  all day preparing for the distinguished guest and  had a
splendid dinner prepared.  Much to her disappointment the professor said
that he never ate just before  speaking as it would interfere with the
working of his mind.  The lady bundled her husband off with the professor
to the lecture hall and  busied herself clearing away the elaborate dinner.
 On the return of her husband she asked what sort of an address the
professor  had made. He replied, "Well, I don't see but he might just as
well have eaten a  hearty dinner."  SWEDE HUMOR  An autoist, in great
distress, Was mopping his bald head  Before a ranch-house--"Have you got  A
monkey-wrench?" he said.  The rancher tall, from Sweden's shore,  Did open
wide his eyes,-  "She bane a cow-ranch," answered he,  In disgusted
surprise.  NOT ALWAYS  Georgette (at a sorority dance): "Haven't I seen you
somewhere else?"  George: "Probably, I haven't always been here."  STAGE
DIRECTIONS  The choir were rehearsing  a new setting of "Onward Christian
Soldiers" for  the Sunday School anniversary.  At verse three the
choirmaster said, "Now, remember, only the trebles sing  down to the gates
of hell, and then you all come  in!"  THE GOOD OLD DAYS  "This song about
bananas makes me sick," said the Foolish Old Gentleman.  "In my day we had
songs like 'Ta Ra Ra Boom De Ay' and 'Daddy Wouldn't  Buy Me a Bow- wow,'
that had some sense to 'em."-New York World.  Employer: "Are you sure women
have no charms for you?"  Burly Applicant: "No, sir, none at all." 
Employer: "All right, I'll hire you. We want you to read meters in sorority
 houses."-Lemon Punch.  Jay: "What do you say to a tramp in the woods ?" 
Jane: "I never speak to them."-Chicago Calamity Fare.  One Hundred Eighty

is the name of the book resulting from an inspiration of the  author after
seeing the typical college professors of this country?"  Victim: "The
Horrible and Damned."  She: "I've got to take  a make-up quizz."  He: "You

They are calf-skin."  Elizabeth: "Oh, I thought he said they were

you think so?"  Second: "I don't know, I never saw him with his clothes

WHY ADOPT  THE RICE SYSTEM OF BUSINESS PENMANSHIP  1-It is no experiment.
The results excel others.  2-The system in both movements and characters is
better classified than  any other.  3-The  system, without doubt, has more
teaching devices and aids for teachers  than ever before presented in any
work on writing.  4-The author's personal work in Bellingham State Normal
and in city and  county institutes is a most vital consideration. --  For

WHAT A CLOUD  Mixed metaphors sometimes appear in unexpected places. This
one is credited  to W. L. George, "the only living specimen of genus homo
who confesses that he  understands women": "The cloud that tried to stab
their happiness was only a  false rumor whose bitter taste could not
splinter the radiance, nor dim the effer-vescence  of their joy."  Mr. Rice
(in penmanship): "The next letter we take up is capital I. The  boys may
find this difficult but, of course, it comes natural to the girls to make
I's."  Miss  Sperry: "That reminds me of Adam and Eve Driven from the
Garden by  Michael Angelo."  Ethel: "Mildred  has a high color, hasn't
she?"  Erma: "Yes, the dear girl. That brand costs ten dollars a box."
SOCIALIZED RECITATION  Mr. Appleton (English I): "Don't you think that last
sentence in your theme was rather superfluous?"  Mr. Sturman: "I think it's
all superfluous."  Mr. Kibbe: "Most teachers dread the first day of
teaching-and it usually is  dreadful."  Mr. Fowler (English I): "I would
like to have a private conference with you.  What periods have you off?" 
Hoffman: "I'm off-wait 'til I look at my schedule. I'm off at eleven every 
day-no, let me see. I'm off-"  Mr. Fowler: "Yes, perhaps you are a little
off."  Wanda: "Oh, Dinah, have you a thumb tack?"  Dinah: "No, dear, only a
finger nail."  BETTER THAN TRADING STAMPS  Small Boy: "Father wants
six-pennorth of ham, please; and would you wrap  it up in the continuation
of the story as you sent him the first chapter of with  the sausage
yesterday?"  AN UNFAIR ADVANTAGE  "Where is the man who keeps this
restaurant ?" asked a disgusted patron.  "He's gone out to lunch," replied
the waiter.  One Hundred Eighty-four
