This is the International Peace Arch under construction. The two ships on the plaques are above the exterior foot walls; one is the Canadian Steamship Beaver and the other, The Mayflower.The Peace Arch was dedicated in 1921. Judge Burke wears a dark suit and overcoat and holds a white fedora in front of him. He has white hair and a white goatee and looks very serious. Sam Hill, a head taller than the other two, wears a somewhat rumpled, faintly striped suit jacket and pants. He has white hair and a bushy white mustache. Frank Terrace wears a dark three piece suit and glowers at the camera. His hair is unkempt. He has a white goatee. Sam Hill established the Washington State Good Roads Association (WSGRA)in 1899 to encourage an adequate and practical statewide highway system; he envisioned Highway 99 that would extend from the US-Mexcio border to the US-Canadian border. On September 14, 1899 the first meeting of the Good Roads Association was held in Spokane, organized by Sam Hill. Fourteen men attended; Frank Terrace from Orillia, WA attended as did J.J. Donovan from Bellingham. Frank terrace and Sam Hill remained good friends over many years.

The site occupies an area of sixty acres of land, situated on the western slopes of Sehome Hill, overlooking Bellingham Bay. Far to the north may l)e seen the snow-capped mountains of British Columbia, while toward the south, the many picturesque islands of the Bay affords a view of rare magnifi- cence. From a small beginning the institution has grown to be one of the largest of its kind in the West. It is now in its twenty-second year of splendid service; and has graduated over two thousand nine hun- dred people. Out of this numbler of graduates, fifty occupations are represented, which goes to show the vast field for which graduates may prepare themselves at the Normal. The greatest numb)er of the graduates are engaged in pedagogical work, while the remaining are still pursuing their work in some higher institutions of learning, or are engaged in some form of business. The course of study of the school has been enlarged yearly so that at the present it is possible to obtain a four-year course, where as in former years a student was only able to get a two-year course. At the present time a one-year course is offered to graduates of a college or university. Owing to the rapid rise in the standards of teaching, only people qualified for college entrance are now permitted to enroll as students, ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 10 ---------- SK LIP SU N whereas at the opening of the institution, eighth grade graduates were admitted. The original building, costing about $45,000 was built in 1896. Three years later, on the sixth day of September, the school opened its doors to students, and, from that time up to the present the school has occupied seven buildings fully equipped and furnished, which have cost about three hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars. The Training School building was erected in 1901; Edens Hall in 1905; the Science Annex in 1907; the Manual Training Shop and a large annex to the Training School in 1913, and a central heating plant in 1917. A new girls' dormitory will be built during the present year and will be completed and ready for occupation by September. Besides the addition of buildings and equipment, much progress has manifested itself in the different departments of the school. The Science Department has grown to such an extent that today many students can be found enrolled in the Normal, who are specializing in science, owing to the fact that the Science Department is so well equipped for this work. The same may be said concerning the other various departments of the institution. The work in the Extension Department has shown a rapid development in the past three years. Through this department graduates and others in the teaching field are able to keep in touch with the latest educational movements of the present. Now over two hundred and twenty-five people are taking work under the guidance of this (lepartment. Seventeen teachers of the school are doing exten-sion work, and twenty- eight subjects are being taught. Many of these teachers go out into the neighboring communities and speak to the people along educational lines. In this case the work is usually carried out by means of the town and community meetings. Much work is carried by correspondence. (One of the things which has probably been a great help to many students in gaining a Normal School education is the Student Loan Fund. This fund was first started by the Senior Class of the year 1904. By means of special contributions from other graduating classes and people interested in the school, the fund has grown rapidly until at the present time it contains about $17,000. It is the privilege of the students enrolled in the school to borrow money from this fund to complete their course if they so desire. Dr. G. W. Nash, the present president, has been with the school since 1914. By his guidance and directions the institution has grown until now it is recognized throughout the United States. As the result of this, the school has students whose homes border on the Atlantic ()cean. Through the years which are to come, the school will, as it has in the past year, grow and( broaden, and have for its aims, the molding of more and better teachers- the sculptors of mankind. - ARTHUR L. HUGGINS '21. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 11 ---------- B-S-N-S ;; at mritam The following poem was a favorite of Miss Baker's, and one she was fond of repeating: The Lily of Yorrow Deep in the heart of the forest the Lily of Yorrow is growzing; Blue is its cup as the sky, and with mystical odour o'erflowing; Faintly it falls through the shadowy glades when the south wind is blowing. Searching and strange in its sweetness, it steals like a perfume en-chan led Under the arch of the forest, and all who perceive it are haunted, Seeking and seeking forever, till sight of the lily is granted. Surely to see it is peace rand the crown of a life-long endeavour; Surely to pluck it is gladness but they who have found it can never Tell of the gladness and peace: they are hid from our vision forever. 'Twas bilt a moment ago that a comrade was wandering near me: Turning aside from the pathway he mnirmired a greeting to cheer nie - Then he was lost in the shade, atnd I called butl he did not hear me. Why should I dream he is dead, and bewail him zwith passionate sorrow? Surely I know there is gladness in finding the Lily of Yorrow: He has discovered it first, rand perhaps I shall find it tomorrow.

S. N. S. From the beginning, the class assumed an observant at-titude which has continued to the present time. Organization was immediately affected and worthy work commenced. During the two years of its exitence the career of the class has been marked by many events. In dramatics, music, athletics, or in fact all school activities, the Seniors have made an outstanding record by their willing attitude and firm support. During the pleasant two years of its stay at Normal, the class has enjoyed many " mix- ClINTrox F1.P 'RuN:, lreSident ers " and social gatherings with its fellow students. Each mem-ber of the Senior Class has at some time shown his wisdom and talent through club work. Many of the present graduates have h ed the honor of holding offices in various societies, and their good work and interest has in many cases helped uphold the high reputation of the societies. In athletics the Class of '21 has excelled. Its men have composed a large p)art of the teams which have won so many victories in basket- )all and baseball. The girls have shown their athletic ability by win-ning the Kline Cup, in the Junior-Senior basketball series of 1920. The fairness and true interest of the players will be with many a treasured memory. Dramatics has always held a high place among the many other interests of the class. As Juniors, the class presented " The Scare-crow " at which time the dramatic talent of the class was clearly shown. The play met with the greatest of approval and no doubt the magnificence of the play and the wonderful ability of the actors will forever linger in the minds of those who witnessed it. During our last year the class presented as their annual play " The Servant in the House," which also met with the great success as that of " The Scarecrow." In conclusion, the class extends to its successors a hearty welcome, and hopes that those classes following will profit by its example and ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 31 ---------- B-S-N-S i fill its place with a spirit of loyalty which will be both noble and true in its nature. It also wishes to thank its class advisors for their hearty support and true interest which they have ever shown. It is through their hearty support that the Seniors go out from the school with such high standards. And now as the year is drawing to a close and the class must hid farewell to dear old B. S. N. S., it realizes much of the knowledge will be forgotten in the years which are to follow, but the friendshipls, frolics and all the good times of the past two years will last in its memory forever.

" ask the Senior Class of nineteen hundred twenty-one. " I have toiled for two years, striving, ever striving to fulfill my every ambition. For two short years I have worked, every part of me perfectly attuned. Now as the end is drawing nigh my thoughts fly to the future. Crystal, 0 Crystal, what does the future hold for me? " " The future holds for you, Class of Nineteen Hundred Twenty-one, health, happiness and love. I see you in every hamlet, village and city over all the world. Success will follow you where ever you go. There will be leaders in art, music, politics and science among you. The greatest book of the age will be written by one of you. One of you will win the ten thousand dollar Paris prize for the greatest dis- covery in physics. I see a second Plato among you in the person of your class president. Vast numbers of you will lead the coming gen-eration to honorable citizenship since you have the ability to see in every child the ideal citizen of the future, just as Michael Angelo saw the angel in the rough stone. And like him you will have the ability to perfect their afterselves as he the David. After years of pains-taking labor with the children of our land you will again change your occupation and build homes. In that you will accomplish your great-est good, for homes are the bulwarks of civilization. As the years go on and on, the ' Normal by the Sew ' will rock back and forth upon its foundation and shout with pride, 'All honor to the Class of Nine-teen Hundred Twenty-one, for it has made the most of every oppor-tunity.' " "It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll: I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul." HENLEY. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 33 ---------- B-S.N-S 33 Senior Class Will We, the 1921 Senior Class, the most intelligent class that ever walked the spacious halls of the Bellingham State Normal, of the County of Whatcom, in the State of Washington, United States of North America, being of sound and disposing mind, memory and under- standing, and considering our end is near, do therefore, make, pul)lish and declare this to be our last will and testament, in manner and form following, to-wit: ARTICLE I.

The Juniors have done much towards making life at the Normal profitabl)e, pleasant and ,interesting. They have been prominent in society, clubs, debate, drama and athletics. The class mixers were noted for their gaiety and brilliance. All the beauty and chivalry of the school came to these social gatherings. The pulchritude of the ladies, the fine figures of the men and the sparkling wit and repartee of all, gave to these societies an atmosphere of great splendor. The diverse clubs of the school were, of course, keen to appre-ciate the intellectual qualities of the Juniors. There was intense rivalry among the different organizations in pledging the newcomers to membership. The intimates have shown themselves well worthy of the confidence put in them. In debate the Juniors again made a marvelous showing. Of the six debaters four were Juniors, who brought to their tasks fine felicity of diction and eloquence. The class is justly proud of these debaters. In their various societies and expression classes the Juniors dem-onstrated that they were ardent disciples of Thespis. Several dramas were presented in which Juniors played important roles. The climax was reached in the play " Rosemary," the annual class production, made up of an all-star cast of Juniors. The comedy delighted a large and appreciative audience. In athletics the class has been most successful. The Junior girls, as in previous years, were again victorious in basketball over their opponents, the Seniors. Thanks to the superior strength and skill of the Juniors, they found no difficulty in defeating their adversaries and winning the Kline Cup. This trophy has been in the possession of the Junior Class for some years. The Normal School girls' basketball team was also largely made up of Juniors. Due to the dexterity and agility of these girls, they were able to triumph many times. The majority of the men on the first and second basketball teams were Juniors. It is well nigh superfluous to add that these men acquitted themselves most creditably. The many victories of the teams were in a large measure due to the fine work of these Juniors. The Juniors are greatly indebted to the various class officers who have diligently performed their respective duties and who have done such meritorious work in furthering the interests of the class. The different committees which were appointed from time to time have, by their untiring efforts, succeeded in making the many functions of the class pleasant and successful. The members of the class sincerely appreciate the endeavors of Mr. Bond, the class advisor, who, by his enthusiasm and kindly advice, has encouraged them in their divers activities. Although the class has been interested in many things dealing with the lighter side of life, the members have not forgotten the pur-pose of their study here. The great majority of them have applied ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 60 ---------- O KLIPSUN themselves to their work and mastered their daily tasks, knowing that there can be no opportunity for future service without prepara-tion. And so the Juniors have tried to give the best that is in them. Sometimes they have failed but they have profited by their failures. Some have, by the very nature of their work, been in the foreground. Others, perhaps not so conspicuous, have nevertheless done their parts modestly and faithfully. May the past attainments of the class but act as spurs for future achievements, and may these words of Walt Whitman be an inspiration to them in the years to come:,. "There is no endowment in man or woman that is not tallied in you; There is no virtue, no beauty in man or woman, but as good is in you; No pluck, no endurance in others,, but as good is in you; No pleasure waiting for others, but an equal pleasure waits for you." - GEORGE VAN DE WETERING.

At the regular student election in April the following officers were chosen for next year: Miss Elsie Minor, president; Carol Haeske, vice-president; Marian Collier, Esther Cook and Mrs. Edna Anstett, student representatives. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 62 ---------- C. C. BAUGHIMAN, Myr. RUTH SANFORD, Alst. Student's Co-Op The Students' Co-Op, owned and controlled by the Students' As-sociation, is considered one of the best college stores in the country. The store was organized in 1908, and until five years ago was run by the student managers. Since then Mr. C. C. Baughman has given his entire time to the store and under his capable and efficient management it has become an essential part of student life. During the past two years, Miss Ruth Sanford, a graduate of Whatcom High School, of this city, has ably served as the store assist-ant, and her pleasant manner and charming personality have won her the friendship of all the students. The Co-Op aims not only to supply students with the proper equipment for school and recreative life at moderate cost, but stands for efficiency in its management, prompt service and courtesy to its patrons. 62 K L IP SU N ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page [63] ---------- 14 J hrn ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page [64] ---------- COACH SAI E.

Forward Max has had several years' experience with some fast squads, being one of the main-stays of last year's Blue and White team. His method of pivoting while dril)bling the ball proved an unsolvable mystery to his many oppo-nents. DWIGHT CONE, Center Cone proved a valuable asset to the team on account of his speed, and a well developed left-handed " hook." RICHARD INGE, Guard Dick was another classy guard who could hang on to any forward that stepped uI)on the floor. It was a lucky man who got away for an open shot when Inge was guarding him. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 66 ---------- CO KLIPSUN i :rnmr'1: l 1' li Llll no u n n ;r r ;u u: n nn r :n n n ; :::u u nu u :u u n n ;n u n ;r ;r r; mu n ::n ;. uw ;" :u u u n u nm u n ;; : :r n u :llln;u l;lllrlluln ; llul ll tlltllrllrI u r I I Il; ; ;l; n;llmll ;lrulllllrll : l;lulll llll lnl rIll r Il IuII II;I IIIIIaI Il;Il;uI; I uu llllllllllfun;; LAWRIENCE HWRIGHT, IUtility Wright proved his worth as an all around man, being a very speedy player in what-ever position was given him.

HERBERT YORKSTON, Forward Another of last year's men who returned for another year of Normal basketball. "Herb" is an excellent man and his accuracy in shooting helped win most of the games for Normal.

N. S. this year would make all opponents show real speed to wallow the Blue and White in the dust. In all, there were about a dozen men who were almost equally efficient in basketball. So well did these men play the game that it was a puzzle for Carver to select the best five. At times the coach resorted to the art of coin tossing in order to give men a place on the squad. The first team men who made their letters were Jenkins (F.), Yorkston (F.), Inge (G.), Burpee (G.), Cone (C.), Mathes (C.), Wright (C.), Frank (G.), Crum (F.). SCHEDULE OF GAMES VANCOUVER Ex-NoHMIAL 19 - NORMAL 25 December 18 In a very speedy beginning game, Normal annexed a victory over the fast Northern quintet. FAIRHAVEN 10 - NoRMAL. 25 On January 5 the Blue and White met the Fairhaven team and easily gained a victory by a margin of fifteen points. VANCOUVER Ex-NORMAL 50 - NORMAL 24 January 15 The Normal squad journeyed to Vancouver to play a return game with their old rivals. The team played a scrappy game but were out-shot by the Canucks. This evened up the series, each team having a victory to its credit. The tie was never played off. WVHATCOM 23 - NORMAL 25 January 21 Friday evening, January 21, we saw one of the fastest games of the season, when the strong, husky, fighting Normal team clashed with the almost equally strong Whatcom High School five in the WVhatcom gymnasium. At no time during the game was entire victory anything other than doubtful. Each team played superb ball. When the gong rang at the end of the second half, 21-21 was announced. During the overtime period of five minutes, Jenkins, one of our star forwards, succeeded in caging two goals, while the perfect guarding of Burpee and Inge allowed our opponents only a single goal. When the final gong sounded hundreds of Normal fans went wild with rejoicing and the thunder of their rejoicing echoed through the streets of Bellingham for hours following the game. CHENEY NORMAL 26- BELLINGHAMI NORMAL 28 January 28 Our sister institution from the eastern part of the state was de-feated by the close score of 26-28. This game was characterized by thrills from the beginning. The local boys were in the lead the entire game, but there were times when a single field goal would have placed the visitors in the lead. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page [69] ---------- f 40 xx b, ,71 +iF ire-; ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 70 ---------- 70 K L I P S UN C. P. S. 18- NORMAL 34 Normal added another victory to her list on the evening of Feb-ruary 5, when she men the strong team of the College of Puget Sound. Many complications arose during the progress of the game. ST. 'MARTIN'S 19 - NORMAL 23 A week following the game with C. P. S. the St. Martin's College men paid Normal a visit. This game, played in our own gymnasium, was a very speedy one and was probably the cleanest played game of the season. Last year the St. Martin's team showed the best sports-manship of any team appearing upon our floor and this year's repre- sentatives lived up to the standard set by their predecessors. WHATCOM 28 - NORMAL 23 February 18 Whatcom staged a comeback, winning the second game of the series. Had Normal won this game it would have placed Whatcom on the shelf for this year, but their failure made a third game neces-sary. The Fairhaven gym was selected for the battleground and the next Saturday chosen as the time for the conflict. WHATCOM 18 - NORMAL 22 Both teams were confident when Referee McBeth blew the whistle for the decisive contest. Normal took the lead and maintained it throughout the entire game. Although Whatcom rallied towards the end, Normal was never in very serious danger. The game ended with a Normal victory--22-18. FIRST GAME, CHENEY 21 - BELLINGHAM 19 SECOND GAME,. CHENEY 30 - BELLINGHAM 15 On March 2 and 3 the teams of the two sister Normal schools clashed two successive evenings on the Cheney floor. Fatigue and lack of sleep proved handicaps to our boys, consequently we lost both games. C. P. S. 23 NORMAL 25 March 5, Normal met C. P. S. in Tacoma and annexed the second victory of the year from this quintet. ST. MARTIN'S 34 - NORMAL 24 The following evening we played a fast game with St. Martin's squad, but were defeated by ten points. This victory for St. Martin's balanced accounts, as we beat them once before. This closed the games for the season, which we have every reason to consider a successful one, as we lost only five games out of the fifteen played. It would he unfair to close this discussion without congratulating the basketball boys for their spirit this season. Each man was on his toes every minute of each conflict. We must also congratulate Coach Carver for the splendid team he moulded into shape.

The first part of the season was a struggle between the Junior and Senior teams for the possession of the Kline Cup. The girls prac-ticed faithfully in order to obtain the beloved trophy. After two winning games, however, the Juniors were pronounced victors of the Kline Cup series. Much credit is due both teams and their coach, Miss Moffat, for the clean playing and sportsmanlike attitude of every p)layer. After the Kline Cup games the two teams joined forces and or-ganized one strong team to represent the school. Two practice games were played between the teams of the P. E. Major Club and the school, the school sextette being victorious both times. Five outside games were played, two with Whatcom High and three with Fairhaven High, which resulted in the attainment of the city basketball championship for the Normal team. Great credit is due the coach, MIr. Carver, for this victory represented difficult and faithful work. The other athletic activities of the girls were indoor baseball, swimming, tennis and archery. Early in the fall each class organized an indoor baseball team with MIr. Carver as coach. The Seniors were defeated by the younger class in two fast, closely contested games.

They played a plucky game of basketball but were defeated by the older team and the fast Normal sextette annexed their first victory from an outside school.

The Art Department considered itself especially fortunate to bie able to meet so many friends at the Open House Day held early in January. The four rooms of the department were filled with regular class work, and, if one might judge from the expressions of the guests, proved to ble a revelation to many of what public school art means at the present time. There were many ex-amplles of typical drawing class products - landscapes, nature work and object drawing -but in addition there were the newer types of work that come into the course of the modern art class. For instance, there were posters advertising everything from a circus to real estate. There were examples of box making and bookbinding. There were specimens of toys made of wood or cardboard. Dollhouses suggested prol)lems in interior decoration. Simple stitchery in coarse fabrics suggested practical problems in design and color harmony. A col- lection of reed, matting, raffia and pine needle baskets attracted much attention and admiration. Throughout the afternoon and evening refreshments were served by the members of the Studio Art Club. The annual Art Exhibit in May showed the work accomplished during the winter and spring quarters. One notable feature was the splendid display of posters produced by the class in Commercial Art. These posters were exceptionally well worked out, original in con-ception and varied in subject. Another feature was an unusually rich and varied assortment of baskets. Many fascinating shapes adapted to a great variety of uses were noted. The weaving display was in-teresting, because the articles shown ranged from simple holders woven on cardboard looms made by the students to bags and pillows woven on the commercial looms, and using patterns of real historic interest. A class in handwork displayed a suggestive collection of articles that might easily be taught grade pupils, and which used materials and tools available in practically any school. The spring exhibit, as usual, attracted a large number of teachers among other visitors. Their busy notebooks attested the fact that these teachers in active service found the work shown to ble suggestive and practical. During the spring quarter the Art Department put out an Art Bulletin, sefting forth the aims and work of the department, its course of study, some discussions of art topics, and some suggestions for picture study in the grades. The Bulletin is beautifully illustrated, printed on buff eggshell paper, with a hand tinted cover. The Art Department has a large number of visitors during the course of the year. Their comments are often of great value, because ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 79 ---------- B1S-N *S sn unuuuuuuunn uunnull lllnmmuumululluln uu n llllllmmllll lmllulIIIIuletmlml liI I s ImIliaul n l lnlOUmnlll lll llllilllmllll they portray the reaction of the outside to the work accompllished. One distinguished visitor described it as one of the most important and interesting departments in any school. Another described the work of the department as the most " teachable " he had seen, surely a fine thing to have said of a department whose business is teacher training. A third declared this to be the best Normal Art Depart-ment on the Pacific Coast. But the most pertinent remark of all came from a small boy in the Training School, working under a prac-tice teacher, trained in the department, when he asked wistfully, " Why can't we draw all the time? " Looking backward, it seems safe to say that this has been the most progressive year the Art Department has had. There has been a large number of elective classes, more students, greater enthusiasm than ever before. Out of it art has come a greater incentive for more and better work in the years to come. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 80 ---------- o KLIPSUN ARTHUR E. BOWSHER HERBERT HANSEX Business Mlanager Editor First Quarter The Weekly Messenger The Messenger, official weekly newspaper of the Bellingham State Normal School, has been in existence for nearly twenty-two years, having been first established in 1899. At that time it was published but once every quarter. In 1903 it appeared as a monthly, growing both in size and popularity until 19161 when it entered the school news-paper class as a weekly. The Messenger is typically a student's paper, being entirely edited and managed by them with the advice and assistance of a faculty sponsor appointed by the president. The editor and business manager are elected by the Student Board of Control, the business manager serving an entire year and the editor in most instances serving but one quarter, although some editors have served longer terms. Members of the journalism class serve as reporters and staff officials. In the absence of other experienced applicants in September, the editorship was offered to Herbert Hansen who had been editor for two terms last year. While Mr. Hansen had not expected to be associated with the Messenger this year, he agreed to serve until another editor could be secured and learn the duties of the office. In December he tendered his resignation to accept the editorship of the 1921 Klipsun. During the second quarter the Messenger was very ably piloted b)y Catherine Shepherd. While Miss Shepherd had not previously been associated with the Messenger she had worked on the school paper in ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 81 ---------- IB-S"N SS CATI:HIN: SHEPuIIEn) Lois WV. ()SOHuN Editor Second Qu rter Edlitor Thirdl Qurtr high school and soon learned the various details of the work associated with the publication of our own weekly. At the close of the second quarter she was succeeded by Miss Lois Osborn, who is editor at the present time. Miss Osborn had demion-strated her ablility as a writer during the first and second quarters as a reporter on the Messenger staff. The business dealings of the Messenger were conducted by Arthur E. Bowsher. Mr. Bowsher was another of last year's experienced men, having served as assistant to the business manager then and as man-ager during the summer term of 1920. Much credit is also dlue to Miss Olive Edens of the English Depart-ment, who acted as faculty sponsor. Miss Edens gave freely of her time to aid in making the publication of the Messenger a success. Her helpful advice and kindly criticism were largely instrumental in mak-ing the Messenger a real student's paper. Throughout the year the Messenger has endeavored to print all the news of interest to students in the most interesting manner pos-sible. On the following page are reproduced some clippings showing the scope of work attempted by the Messenger. We hope that in future years they may serve as a pleasant reminder of the little paperl with which you became so familiar during your school dlays at B. N.

Place- An English country vicarage. the Iord Bishop Ray Buswell Arthur E. Bowsher Mrs. Botzer Helen Marshall Chas. Powell Arthur L. Huggins Herbert Hanse: One of the most pretentious dramas ever produced at Normal was undertaken by the Seniors this year. That the production was a com-plete success is due to MIr. Hoppe, who coached the cast who interpreted the difficult roles with merit and understanding, and the entire class who stood back of the production from when the choice of play was made until the final drop of the curtain. " The Servant in the House " is a big problem for any class to attempt, but it was staged and inter-preted admirably in the auditorium the evening of May 31st. The story, dramatically arranged, is the old one of reform in the church. Manson, the butler, who is "the servant in the house," locates the drain in the church that is causing the disagreeable odor, and goes beneath the foundation to remove it; likewise, he enters the Vicar's home and cleans it of evil by beginning as its servant. The lack of eagerness by which the Lord Bishop of Lancashire would accept reform, and the proneness of the guardians of the church to cover up the truths of Manson, only brought out stronger the real mission of the followers of Christ. From the ascent of the curtain the theme is vitally and splendidly carried on. Herbert Hansen as Manson, Chas. Powell as Robert Smith, Arthur Bowsher as the Vicar, Ray Buswell as the Lord Bishop, Arthur Hug-gins as the page, all did their parts in a highly satisfactory manner, while Mrs. Botzer as the Vicar's wife and Helen Marshall as Mary, their niece, held up splendidly the feminine roles. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 85 ---------- B S-N -S S1 nin umuu11.1noin u i IIIIII I IIIIe r.1Ii1 1m1 1i1. 111n1..1. 1111r 1111lI llainnin iI it ai lllolu ll1111.l. l I I I 1 The Junior Play CAST OF CHARACTERS George Minifie XWilliamii Westwood Dolly Cruickshank Sir Jasper Thorndyke Abraham Capt.

Again great credit is due Mr. Hoppe, who directed and selected the cast. So excellent was the acting that each character seemed to fit perfectly his particular part and costume. The story is one of sentiment and romance. The scene is laid in rural England, at the time of Dickens, and Queen Victoria. Sir Jasper, a wealthy bachelor, becomes the chivalrous i)rotector of an eloping pair, only to find himself in love with the girl in the end. How-ever, he puts aside his affection, and cherishes only a sprig of " Rose-mary - that's for remembrance," as he blesses the two young lovers. The acting of George Van de WVetering, as Sir JaspIer, was par-ticularly good, especially in the last act, when he appeared as an old man, re-living his past. On the whole the Juniors acquitted them-selves with distinction, and set a high mark for successive .Junior classes to follow. :: : ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 86 ---------- KL I P S U N The Little Princess Miss Minchin Mliss Amelia Phyllis Betty Nora Dottie Janet Mazie .

Bernadine Arant as the " Little Princess" was especially convincing. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 87 ---------- B.S-N -S s; Miss (G ERTiU D' EA ART, B. S. Superinten det of T'r inin School Training School A great laboratory is our Training School, furnishing, as it does, opportunity for the testing of student teachers who, under helpful and efficient supervisors mature into splendid workers for our state. Our Training School is guided by the following excellent corps of instructors: Miss Earhart, who is absent at Columbia, superintendent; Miss Morse, assistant superintendent and Junior High School; Miss Mont- gomery, superintendent primary department; Miss Moffat, first and second grades; Miss Bell and Mrs. Witten, third and fourth grades; Miss McDonald and Miss Gordon, fifth and sixth grades; Miss Craw-ford and Miss Wallace, seventh and eighth grades; Miss Lee, Mrs. Samson and Miss Aleek, city; Mrs. Kirkman, Geneva; Mrs. Wiley and Miss Keeler, extension department. The Training School consists of five delpartments, pre-primary, primary, lower intermediate, higher intermediate and Junior High School. The pre-primary and primary children have had a very regular attendance this year. Special programs were frequently given, especially in the month of February when Washington and Lincoln pIroved a rich field for these little ones. The children of the third grade, with great eagerness, tried a new experiment; they procured some pheasant eggs, which they set and raised wild game. These birds were liberated when they were able to take care of themselves. The third and fourth graders have been greatly interested in pro-ject problems. Among those of special interest were the Arab sand- ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 88 ---------- s KLIPSUN table and a logging scene. These children have also done some re-markable work in Roman and Greek history. Their projects in this work have covered such points of interest as Roman forts, the City of Athens, and cleverly illustrated booklets of Greece and Rome. The higher grades have displayed much talent in writing poems and compositions. A poem, " The Witches' Cave," is worthy of print: The Witches' Cave Down by the brook There's an uncanny nook Where the ghosts and The witches stay. If you watch at night, In the pale moonlight You can see the elfins play. Oh, it's a cave cold and drear Where the shadows lurk and The owlets peer That cave where the witches stay. Children who have wandered In woods at night, Have often seen A pale white light. The witches and ghosts Have caught them in hosts And carried them off In the dead of the night. In November the Junior High School presented an operetta called " The Indian Princess." This proved to be a great success. Since many of the children will not go beyond the grades, manual training, domestic science and agriculture have been emphasized in certain classes, in order that the vocational tendency of these subjects may be suggestive to the children in the choice of an occupation. The many activities in which the children have participated and the efficiency with which they have met all their daily tasks are proof that the student teachers are able to put their knowledge into prac-tice, and are able to meet the difficulties which present themselves along educational lines. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 89 ---------- BS-N-S lM lllII lllllnll lllllllllllllil lllllIl lil li lllIl l lll llIIlI llIi II n illllll lI llllI I Iilll l1ll1il1il1l 1I 1lllll 1li 1l 1lllllll llllll Iln IilI lllllllllliiililii I nll ll ll IIII lOII llilI lIl lllIlIIIIIIIII IIIII 1I1I iIIIIIIIIIII IIIII1}II III C.THomAO. During the past few years debate and oratory have taken the form of inter-class and inter-club contests; this year, however, Guy S. Allison, of San Francisco, and a former B. S. N. S. debater, offered a silver loving cup to b1e contested for in debate bythe normal schools of this state. Inter-class contests were dropped and all effort cen-tered on developing teams worthy of representing B. N. S. At the tryout held shortly before the Christmas holidays, the fol-lowing teams were chosen: Affirmative, Lambert Craver, Hilda Topp and Herbert Hansen, captain; negative, Gordon Squire, Reuben Alm and Elsie Minor, captain. Mr. Hoppe, as head of the Expression D)e-partment, was head coach; Miss Cummins, assistant for the affirma-tive, and Miss Boring, assistant for the negative. As Ellensburg Normal had dropped out of the contest for this year, negotiations were made with Cheney and the following question chosen: " Resolved, that as a prerequisite to the right of strike or lockout, employers and employees should be required to submit in- dustrial disputes to arbitration, the machinery to be provided by the United States Government." The date set was February 24, 1921, one debate to be held in Cheney and another in Bellingham on that date. The question as to which team should make the trip was left for Cheney to decide. The question soon showed itself to be very complicated, and a great deal of time and careful study was necessary to decide just what the main issues were. The work progressed rapidly, however, so that when February 24th arrived all were prepared and anxious to meet our opponents. On February 23 the negative team with its coach left for Cheney. Both teams were reasonably confident of their chances for victory and so were very much surprised at the result. At home the affirma-tive met the negative from Cheney composed of the Misses Bassett and King and Mr. Van de Meer. The Cheney del)aters, while somewhat lacking in argument, more than made up for the deficiency by a blril-liance of delivery which made them very convincing. A glaring con-tradiction in the negative's argument and the brilliant rebuttal of the affirmative seemed to spell victory for the home team, but the judges gave a two to one decision in favor of Cheney. The judges were Miss Corbett, of Burlington; 'Mr. Middleton, of Blaine, and the Rev. Randall, of Everett. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 90 ---------- o KLIP S U N LAMBEr CRAVER HILDA ToPr HIi:REERT HANSEN After the debate a reception was given by the Thespians for the debaters, judges and coaches. The Cheney team departed for home the next day, elated of course on account of their victory, but deeply im-pressed by the good sportsmanship of the Bellingham students. At Cheney the debate was a repetition of the one at home, the Cheney team being weakl in argument but strong in the presentation of material. The Cheney team was composed of William Durland, Ernest Betz and Martha Mallory. The judges were Mr. Rice and Mr. Blair, of Spokane and Mr. Baker, of Davenport. After the debate an informal reception was given for the debaters, at which the debate was gone over again, but no decision other than that given by the judges could l)e secured. The Bellingham debaters were much impressed by the hospitality and good-fellowship with which they were received. Although the results of this year's debates were not very encour-aging, it is to l)e hoped that with such contests assured, greater interest will be taken in the future, and that next year may see " Won by Bellingham" engraved on the Guy S. Allison trophy, and the trophy reposing in state at B. S. N. -REUBEN ALAi.

Excellent speakers from various parts of the country have addressed the assembly. The first number of the lecture course was given bly the Minne-apolis Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Emil Oberhoffer, with Miss Florence Macbeth as soloist. A delightful programmn of classical numbers was beautifully given by the orchestra, while Miss Macbeth's voice was exceptionally delightful. The next number was given by l)r. James B. Balliet, Dean of the I)epartment of Education of the University of New York. Dr. Balliet's subject was " Education for the New Demnocracy,' in which he named four kinds of democracy, political, economic, indus-trial and social. " These democracies rose in protest against autocra-cies and war was the result." He compared the democracies of Eng-land and America. In his conclusion IMr. Balliet stated, " It is the duty of educated men and women to contribute their share in the making of public opinion, for education is training for leadership." D)r. WVm. Chandler Bagley, prominent author, ed(ucator and recog-nized authority on normal schools, was the third member of our lecture course. He gave three exceptionally interesting lectures. l)r. Bagley believes in the highest standard in the training of teachers, for the recognition of teaching as an ultimate profession, and for the ele-vation of the rural school. He stated that " teaching is the noblest of i)rofessions and the sorriest of trades." In comparing teaching with the fine arts he said, " the master artist is one who has the mastery of his material, and the teacher must strive to master his material." As our fourth number, Dr. Arthur Walwyn Evans, the well known Welsh orator, gave a stirring lecture entitled " Lords of the Land." Although a Welshman by birth, educated in England, Scotland and Wales, Dr. Evans is an American by adoption. He told of the eternal struggles between the " blue blood and the red." He stated that in the future we must place a greater emphasis on intellectual and moral qualities. We must have an aristocracy blased on these things rather than on material wealth. Frederick Warde, the distinguished actor, author and lecturer, who has been called " the grand( old man of the footlights," fulfilled his reputation in his appearance as the fifth member of our lecture course. For more than half a century he has been a leading actor. His associates and contemporaries have been the foremost actors of the English-speaking stage, such as Adelaide Neilson, Charlotte Cush-man, Edwin Booth, etc. His lecture, " Fifty Years of Make-Believe," was a fascinating story of stage life in which Mr. \Varde revealed the American stage for the past fifty years. Joseph Lhevinne, the Russian pianist of international note, ap- peared in recital as the seventh member of the lecture course. He began his career when only fourteen years of age, when he had the opportunity to play before Anton Rulbenstein, at a concert. The great things which were predicted by the great Rubenstein for the boy, Joseph Lhevinne, have come to pass. He is now a p)ianist of the first magnitude. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 92 ---------- o K LIPSUN Musical Entertainments The Evening Chorus, under the direction of Mrs. Thatcher, gave a distinctly unusual and extremely delightful program in the Normal auditorium Monday evening, February 28. This was called " Ye Olden Tyme Concert." Ladies and gentlemen appeared in the characteristic dress of days of old. A very pleasing feature was the " Minuet," which was gracefully given by meml)ers of Miss Williams dancing class, Many beautiful and (quaint solos, duets and quartets delighted a large au(lience. THE NORMAL QUARTET The Ladies' Quartet, consisting of Pearl Ingalls, first soprano; Marian Chisholm, second soprano; Ethel Chisholm, first alto, and Ellen Reep, second alto, has given many pleasing entertainments dur-ing the year. Besides assisting in countless entertainments given in the Normal auditorium and in the city schools, this quartet has fre-quently ap)peared in nearby towns. Their programs consisted of quar-tet numbers, duets and solos, and piano solos by Miss Jones. The qluartet was organized by Mrs. Thatcher, whose efforts were instru-mental in making it a decided success. " IN INDIA" Without doubt the most delightful of all the musical features of the year was the operetta " In India," given by the Choral Club in the Normal School auditorium o nthe evening of May 9th. The produc-tion was under the direction of Mrs. Florence Fox Thatcher, and reflects great credit upon her and the members of the Choral Club that participated in the concert. As indicated by the title the operetta was distinctly suggestive of the Orient. The stage was beauifully decorated with a profusion of flowers and colored lanterns, while the brilliance of the costumes almost made the large and appreciative audience believe that they were having a glimpse of India. Pearl Ingalls as Mleerah, a beautiful dancing girl, delighted all her hearers. Other members of the cast included Eunice Coble and Hortense Yule, as Simla and Frimla, respectively, beautiful dancing girls Hazel Loree as How-Now, a hideous old woman; Ethel Chisholm as Veerah, the mother of Meerah, and Mae Guild, Frances Still and Vera \Vhite, who were exceptionally good as three other old ladies in the story. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page [93] ---------- -4 , y r i j ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 94 ---------- 9K L IP S U N Philomathean Literary Society VOLUME II MAY 21, 1921 EXTRA Published by the Philomathean Literary Society EDITED BY MA RIGARET ZURBRICK The Philos again this year have had a busy and profitable time. Under the able guidance of President Herbert Hansen and Vice- President Josephine Hawley, the Philos began the year with an initia-tion of new members. O, many were the aches and pains in the fol-lowing days! The Philos' eleventh birthday party was held on the twentieth of November at the home of MIr. and Mrs. Philippi. This was a grand reunion; all had a " grand old Philo time." The club colors - green and white - predominated, and the birthday cake was cut by Presi-dent Hansen. The reins of government were taken over by Arthur Bowsher as president and Byron Samuelson as vice-president in the second quar-ter. They piloted the club through a successful period, including the reception in February to the C. P. S. basketball team. After the game the Philos and C. P. S. boys were delightfully entertained at the home of Eleanor Simpson. Success as dramatic artists was attained when the club staged the play " Owin' to Maggie " in the assembly. Bernice Day ably took the role of Maggie. The Philos held their place in community work this year. George Van de Vetering and Helen Marshall were Philo representatives. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 95 ---------- B-S-N-S 95 The third quarter found Ethel Sutherland as president and Marie Loga as vice-president. Through the combined efforts of the president, vice-president and Muriel Young, Captaine d'affaire, the annual ban-quet was held April 9 at the Hotel Leopold. For the second time this year Philos, old and new, came together to enjoy the fellowship. Early in May, with bag and baggage Philos, one and all, departed for Mr. Kolstad's cottage on Lake Whatcom. The thrills and joys of that house party will not soon be forgotten by any Philo. Again this year a Philo, Mr. George Van de Wetering, won first prize in the story contest. Ask any member of the club who is the best Philo. The answer is sure to be, " Mr. Philippi." He is our sponsor, advisor and ever willing helper in all our undertakings, and we feel he is indispensible to the Philomathean Club. "O the Philos are so jolly, 0 so jolly; The Philos are so jolly wherever they may be."

The successful new members proved to be versatile and capable in the production of plays, sketches and pantomime and talented in music and aesthetic dancing. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 97 ---------- B-S-N -S 97 The first meeting of the year was spent as a general get-together and jollification, where new Thespians were warmly welcomed and initiated into the spirit of the Club. Members of former years pro-vided the program for the evening and later served refreshments. Thespian songs and yells brought the evening to a joyful close. The club chose as its annual play this year, Mrs. Francis Hodgson Burnett's dramatic success, " The Little Princess," which was given in the Normal Auditorium in January, 1921, under the able direction of Mrs. Sidney Smith. The proceeds realized from this production were given to the Near East Relief Fund for the support of an orphan for a year. An evening to be remembered by all Thespians was that of the Cheney-Normal debate -- whfiereafter the club entertained and served refreshments to both teams and their judges. From time to time one-act plays and miscellaneous l)rograms were given before assembly audiences, among them being " The Little Irish Play " and " Land of Heart's D)esire." Many pleasant evenings were spent in studying plays and pan-tomiines under Mr. Hoppe's patient and faithful help and instruction. " The Chinese Dummy," a one-act farce, will be remembered for its mirthful incidents and eccentric characters, especially Miss Ella Amelia and Miss Artemicia. One meeting was devoted to the remembrance of James Whitconmb Riley, by a story of his life and the reading of some of his best known Hoosier poems. The dialect program proved a winner with its suc-cessful characterization of Italian, Swedish, negro and New England folk in costume. St. Patrick's Eve was gaily spent in an atmosphere of "Auld Ireland " at the home of Madeline Hess. Irish readings, songs and dances were appropriately given, in keeping with the day. In March the second Thespian tryout was launched; at the next regular meeting the new members were duly initiated into the work of the club. The program at this time proved to be especially good. A sketch entitled " Folk Lore " was given, the idea of which was suc-cessfully worked out by means of two or three folk dances and. several folk tales; among them were a novel Jataka folk story and a Russian fairy tale. Two cleverly produced pantomime studies, " Midas and the Touch of Gold " and " Little Snow White," brought the program to a close. Banquets are happy times and this year's gathering around the happy table brought the final chapter of 1921 Thespian life to a memor-able close. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 98 ---------- 98 K L I P S UN Alkisiah Club You shall hear of Alkisiah, Of the Woman's Clubs a member, Of events both sad and happy That have come to pass this year: Of a party this September, For the welcome of new members, That the time might pass more gayly, That the girls might be more joyous; Sumptuous was the feast that night time. To a ghostly Hallowe'en eve, Through the land of sprites and shadows Came the Alkisiah members. All the rollicking guests assembled, Clad in all their gorgeous raiment. Splendid was the program rendered To the student group assembled On the first day of December. Vit and laughter were abundant At the queer and clever meanings. Laugh with us at Wally's actions, Hear the speeches at The Pheasant,. Then farewell to parting members! ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 99 ---------- B'S'N'S 99 II In the dim-lit small gymnasium Were the terrors of initiation For the thirty-six fair sisters. And behold! the club was started On its second quarter's journey. As the holidays drew nearer In a group about the fireplace At Miss Baker's home they gathered, Singing songs of .joy and gladness Of the Christmas time so dear. Never bloomed the bulbs more gayly As that day they shone and blossomed And were sold by Alkisiahs. Oh, the fun of that gay evening As to Glendale for a program Went the Alkisiah Club. Soon upon them caine a sorrow, For a soul upon its journey To a far-off land was wafted -- Their great leader's life was ended. From the sunrise to the sunset Was her life a song, a triumnph. In remembrance of her service, For that reason and no other Lives of birds were held more sacred And a home for them created. As a symbol of her kindness For the world and all its people, Will the suffering and the sorrow Of our fellow-men be lightened In the haven on the camnpus, By a room so bright and cheery. The death of their dear sponsor Left the club in utter darkness. Groping thus in helpless wonder, 'Til Miss Wilson came to lead them. Bravely has she toiled to help them. To her go the thanks of Alkisiah!

During the first quarter a study was made of the presidential campaign as well as the Japanese and Irish questions. Later papers were prepared and read on women's position in art, music, medicine, law and politics, by Ina De Rose, Esther Moehring, Lita Layton, Anna Lungdahl and Catherine Joyce. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 101 ---------- B1-S-N -S 1,1 Two social events took place in the form of parties given at the school, one causing much merriment because of the resemblance of mnembers of the club to certain faculty members. Honorary members of the club, Miss Gordon, Miss Longley and Miss MacDonald, repre-sented masculine members of our student b)o(dy while Miss Crawford made a very efficient custodian. The biggest event of the Aletheia year was the assembly plrogram.

In the dedication of the bird sanctuary the club took an active plart and sang a selection com-posed for the occasion. The jolliest social event of the last quarter occurred when lhe members assembled early one fine morning and took the boat to Lummi Island for their picnic. Every minute of the (lay was enjoyed. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 102 ---------- 102 K LIPS UN Studio Art Club Studio Art! There is something in the name itself that suggests the training or refining of the moral and intellectual faculties, the pleasures of life, and best of all, the highest ideals for which our school stands. Each member is progressive, energetic and feels the responsibility of making the club grow and improve as the years go on. Under the efficient guidance of Miss Druse, development of ap-preciation and knowledge of art in various phases has been fulfilled to a wonderful degree. The work of the club has been changed with each quarter in order to cover as wide a field as possible. The first quarter was spent in the study of pencil sketching. The work of the second quarter took up the study of noted artists, and the different members of the club gave interpretations of the different reproductions of their work. The third quarter was spent in the study of the famous artists who have given their time and talent to poster work, as Maxfield Parrish, Coles Phillips and Howard Pyle. At each meeting of the club a short but very interesting and en-tertaining program has been given, followed by work, then the social hour which gave each girl an opportunity to meet and become more intimate with each member of the club. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 103 ---------- B.S-N-S 103 Studio Art Club Twelve little geniuses joined the Artists' Heaven, Marian ate a doughnut and then there were eleven.

Rural Life, - We! ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 105 ---------- The Rural Life Club is now in its seventh year and bids well to continue as one of the most enterprising clubs of the Blue and White. It is especially fortunate in having as sponsors two such earnest work-ers as Mr. Heckmann and AIr. Coughlin, and to them is due much of the club's progressiveness. The ghosts certainly beset the paths of Rural Lifers Hallowe'en night. Many were the obstacles club members were commanded to surmount, but the reward was a good lunch in the cafeteria, and a generally exciting evening. One of the most enjoyable and instructive evenings was the " Tour Through Italy." The Thespians joined with the Rural Life Club for that event and a wonderful time was had with D)r. Nash, as a calpalle and instructive guide, through the marvelous palaces and art gal-leries of that fascinating country. One Friday morning, in an assembly pIrogram, the Rural Lifers gave a very good demonstration of the important part a true rural school teacher may play in the affairs of a community. Their medium was a little play entitled " Rural Life." Beach parties, hikes and picnics have been enjoyed during Spring. True to the call of spring, the Rural Lifers answered her first invitation by having a picnic supper on Sehome Hill. Here they made merry until the setting sun bade them hasten homeward. Through its programs the club tries to make its club life a living symbol of the various activities its members may promote to enrich the lives of the rural folk in whose communities they may be called to serve. The club looked forward with great anticipation to the evening when it had as its honored guests several of the Normal Extension Workers, who were actively engaged in this field throughout the school year. Among the many things scheduled for the last few weeks of this busy quarter were several in which this club was vitally interested. The Rural Life Club was not found wanting in the Tulip D)ay parade because the co- operative spirit is one of the things the club stands for. The club congratulates its sister club, the Alkisiahs, on its idea of beginning the realization of a bird sanctuary, and is proud, indeed, to be given a place on the dedication program. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 106 ---------- o 1K L IP S U N ... ... .. ... ... .. ... ... .. ... . : : . ... ... .. ... ... .. ... ..... ... ... ..

S.N â€¢S 1 Each Ohiyesa may look back upon the season of 1920-21 with complete satisfaction, knowing that the club lived up to its motto. The aim has been to promote further interest in literary work and the desired end was achieved. One of the most interesting features of the programs was a talk by Mrs. King, a former member of the club. She gave a very inspiring review of the organization and early history of the club. Another program consisted of the debate " Resolved: That uni-versal compulsary military training is a danger to the United States." Those supporting the affirmative were Mayme Bogdanoff and Mary Cutting, while the negative side was upheld by Julia Hall and Naomi Sandy. Both teams showed careful study of the question as well as a good deal of ability in debating. Operas also were studied. The story was given and then illus-trated by appropriate selections from the Victrola. Among the operas considered were " Tannhauser," by Pearl Ingalls, and " Madame But-terfly," by Margaret Stapleton. All enjoyed the star talks given by Miss Wallace out on the campus under the open sky. Some splendid musical material is in the club. Greatly enjoyed were the vocal solos by Pearl Ingalls and Lucille Parsons and the piano solos by Mayme Bogdanoff and Alma l)eierling. Also Augusta Ohlin's rendition of " The Perfect Tribute " showed considerable ability in the art of oral expression. For the assembly program the Ohiyesa, put on an Indian pow-wow which was one of the most successful of the club features of the year. The Indian tepee against a background of forest, with soft red lights made a very effective setting. Pearl Ingalls as chief welcomed back the daughters of the tribe from the White Man's school by the sea and was surprised with the learning which they had brought back, especially with such marvels of modern education as " reactions " and " motivation " and the " socialized recitation "; also with the musical talent as exhibited by Lucille Parsons in " Red Wing," which was prettily interpreted by Mayme Bogdanoff, and by Pearl Ingalls in " By the Waters of Minnetonka." The pow-wow closed with the club his-tory given by Edna Lass and the club song and dance by the club. Other enjoyable features were a candy sale, a picnic at Whatcom Falls Park and a theater party. The Ohiyesas feel that the work of the year has been most profitable and that the pleasantest memories they will carry away from the Normal will be in connection with the Ohiyesa meetings.

The purpose of this club was to promote fel-lowship and good will among its members, and also to aid in uphold-ing the high standards and spirit of the institution. For a short time this organization was known as " The Men's Auxiliary," but later took the name of " Hyiu Yakanati Club." During the year many social events were held by the organiza-tion which were among the best held by any organization of the school. Among the first was "The Get-Together " banquet, which gave the men students a better chance to get acquainted with the faculty. A high degree of fellowship was shown. Several genuine " stag " parties were held during the year, which will long be remembered by those present. At the beginning of 1921 the organization staged a " smokeless smoker," at which many athletic events were put on. During the third quarter a " smokeless smoker " was held by the Hyiu Yakanati Club and the boys of Whatcom High School at the high school gymnasium. Here athletic events were held between the two schools. Money was raised for the 1921 Klipsun of the Normal and the 1921 Kulshan of the High School. The evening was a great success and such a meeting will no doubt be held annually between the two institutions. It is the wish of the Hyiu Yakanati Club that its good work he carried on from year to year, and the present members of the organiza-tion wish for future members the greatest of success. - WILLIAM ELDER ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 109 ---------- B.S.N-S Choral Club Under the directorship of Mrs. Thatcher the Choral Club spent a very pleasant and profital)le year. The enrolled number has been about forty each quarter. Early in January the club rendered two selections for Open House Day, and gave excellent selections at both the November and the March comnmencement exercises. The latter part of the year was spent in preparing an operetta, " In India," given the latter part of April. The club is indeed grateful to Mrs. Thatcher, not only for her indefatigable and patient work, but for her inspiring attitude which spurred it to greater effort.

However, the vacancies were soon filled and an unusually successful year has been enjoyed. A social gathering was held the first Thursday, and a devotional meeting the first Sunday, led by Miss Sperry. The first Saturday afternoon the Association girls carried bou-quets and greetings to new girls; many lonely and homesick girls were made happy by these little remembrances. The annual reception to students and faculty was a very pleasing event. The guests entered through a large blue triangle and were received by the president of the Association, Dr. Nash, the members of the cabinet and advisory board Miss Longley, Miss Sperry, Mrs. Thomas Cole, Mrs. Ella Jones, Mrs. R. S. Simpson, Miss Mead and Miss Woodard. The idea of the blue triangle was carried out in the decora-tion of the rooms; bonquets of hydrangeas added to the color effect. After a delightful program, refreshments and games were enjoyed by many guests. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 111 ---------- B S Nâ€¢S 111 Among the speakers who have spoken to regular meetings are Dr. Jessie McDonald and her assistant, Miss Saltau, from China; Dr. Bashalso, from China; Dr. White, of Seattle; Dr. Sutcliffe, of Chi-cago; Mrs. Cole, Miss Woodard, Miss Sperry, Dr. Harrison, Dr. Nash and Dr. Miller. The meetings led by our president and the girls themselves have been worth while and helpful. Especially interest-ing was the Japanese program led by Vivian Gunderson, May Clark and Lois Henderson, in costume. Beginning January 17 was held the thirteenth annual Bible Insti-tute. Many girls enjoyed the opportunity of hearing two splendid Bible teachers, Mrs. Campbell and Dr. Sattler. This year the Bible study committee organized nine Bible classes, conducted by faculty members or Bible teachers living near the campus. Miss Woodard taught a class during the noon hour for Bellingham girls. The topic for study this year was the Book of Acts. Among the special features was a delightful " kid party " given during the Thanksgiving recess, and the Easter Sunrise Service on Sehome Hill; also a Seabeck conference entertainment in connection with the city Association, given at the Normal. The most impressive of the social functions of the Y. W. C. A. for the year was the old-time banquet, held in the domestic science rooms, Saturday, April 2. Many former students were present, and recalled the inspiration of former years. The guests were led into the dining room by Dr. Nash and Ethel Sutherland. After a delicious supper Miss Sutherland acted as toastmistress. Each toast represented a woman of the Bible. (1) " Deborah," Florence Swanson; (2) " Mary Magdalene," Miss Gordon; (3) " Ruth," Vivian Gunderson; (4) " Mir-iam," Georgina Sharples; (5) " Mary of Bethany," Alma Burdick; (6) "Esther," Alice Brown, student secretary of the Northwest field. Officers chosen for next year assure the fact that the future work will be carried on as successfully as in the past. The officers for 1921-22 are: Lois Henderson, president; Alma Burdick, vice-presi-dent; Judith Ring, secretary; Frances Rosenburg, treasurer. The Association appreciates the enthusiasm of its president, Flor-ence Swanson, and the loyal support of all other cabinet members. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 112 ---------- 11 L IIP S I N P. E. Major Club The P. E. Major Club is composed of a group of girls who realize that health is a prerequisite of every real accomplishment, and are working toward ideals in correct posture, dress, scholarship and good sportsmanship. Out of last year's group but five mnembers were left to stir up the old enthusiasm. However, at the first of the year twelve members were initiated; Pauline Bornstein elected president. To show the high esteem in which the directors of the club, Misses Moffat and W\illiams, are held, they were presented with P. E. Major rings at a luncheon in their honor. Pearl Whitmore was chosen president of the second quarter. A hike to Toad Lake was thoroughly enjoyed. A girl that has been a P. E. Major girl once will know that in this pursuit of happiness she always gets what is good for her. P. E. Major days become more than a happy memory stored away for future reminiscences. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 113 ---------- ,,,, ,,,'1,,,', ', 'n,, ,1, m,',,,,,n,um',m,u''m im,r{S,m,mn r,,, n,nun,m imm'imi'nnu'mmummw :nin.i'm' niiinm miiiiiininnn ni{imiiiimimiiiii iiii'i ii niiinn u nu1 in nm1in im !n nm~ m m inim m nmnr:mm nn i :m n!n nnnmn mn n im iiininn inn iin nimii iiiiimiiniii iiinn iiii1nin Edens Hall The girls of Edens Hall have but one regret - that their Garden of Eden remains Adamless. Nevertheless, this fact has not dampened their spirits; in fact, it has added to the fun. The costumed Hallowe'en and Valentine parties were unusually lively and entertaining affairs this year. Just before the Christmas holidays Edens Hall had its annual candle-lighting ceremony. The girls, dressed in white and carrying lighted candles, marched through the house and into the dining hall, singing carols. The boxing and wrestling matches, nightly frolics with the rats, spreads, secret meetings, slumber parties and fire drills, that called one out of bed into the cold night air, will never be forgotten. Many attractive hikes, picnics and beach parties were enjoyed during the Spring months. The splendid altruistic spirit of the girls makes their relationships that of a large family. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 114 ---------- ,,,KLIPSUN rurllu nuu ru m i ;i mururu l llllllrlull ll lllll: ~iurn n iui lunrllur luriu rI lrl lmlIl lllllli n I Iim i lnlr lrlinluil lmllm nl lll lllllllllil lrnl[lnl llllllum llllli nl lllillunnnln lil ulnIlnl nl llr llnl llillil ~llllllli i :nuumrrurrrnlu rrtruiurmr irmulrr iIr lm lrlnimln nl iillllllllirlrl lnlinlir rurr rii rumltlllmwniu ni uwlu u ll Young Housekeepers The Young Housekeepers were organized by Miss Woodard in 1918 for the promotion of fun, friendship and physical fitness. Its membership includes all women students who do their own house-keeping. At the regular meetings a taste for the best in, literature and music is cultivated by contributions from members of the organiza-tion. This part of the program is followed by a study of some im-portant household topic. This year a series of three studies presented by charts took up the following subjects: The proper amount) of food, the proper variety in foods, the relative value of foods at a uniform cost. At one meeting one family presented a well-balanced menu for a Normal girl's luncheon, Nichols Hall prepared the menu for a Sun-day dinner and The Cedars prepared a menu for a Thanksgiving din-ner. At another meeting the various " families " prepared a Normal girl's budget for the spring quarter. Nichols Hall prepared the budget on the basis of $100 " with a trunk full of clothes." The Dodd family used $200 as a basis, including clothes. The mid-winter picnic is an annual affair with the Young House-keepers. A well-balanced picnic dinner is prepared by the members and served at minimum cost. The program provides that every minute shall be crowded full; acquaintances are made, friendships are formed, and the spirit of laughter, of unrestrained fun and sheer happiness run riot. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 115 ---------- B-S-N-S 1; 11111111111111111111111111 1111 11111111 111 111I111I11 1 11 11t11 1 11 1I1II I I 1 11II1II IIIIII II IIIII III III II II IIIr il lllllIl lIIlI{ Il Il Il tIl IlIlIlII lIlIlII iIJ IiII I I Business Girls' League The Business Girls' League was founded by Miss Woodard, the Dean of Women, in 1917, to protect the interests and promote the welfare of young women who have the courage to engage in some form of remunerative work while attending school.

The regular meetings have three distinct features: a survey of local conditions among the Business Girls, an artistic, musical and literary program, and reports on topics related to business. One meet-ing had for its theme " The Work of Large Industries in the Interest of Their Women Employees." Studies of Marshall Field, the National Cash Register Company, the Goodyear Rubber Company and Armour and Swift were presented. At another meeting the great national problem of unemployment was studied. Two social meetings have been held this year. On November 20 a large get-together party was held at which every game was some-thing new. The spirit of play ran riot, and girls who were holding down two jobs played as little children. On March 19th occurred the League's fourth annual banquet. A long white table in the shape of an " I " (for independent), boxes of beautiful daffodils and delicate greenery, jaunty shamrocks for place cards, rows and rows of happy, smiling, chatty girls, songs and more songs, toasts wistful and tender, clever and jolly. Oh, that was a memorable time! ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 116 ---------- ItI, llll I I III II IIIlllI l l llllllll l l ll llKllII l IIILI l lIlPlllSlll l U IICNllllll l l IIIIllIll lI ll Home Economics Girls The Home Economics majors shown in the above picture take eight required courses, with practice teaching in the intermediate grades and Junior High of the Training School, and at Geneva. Dur-ing the past year twelve majors have graduated and now hold good positions. Many other girls take from two to three classes in Home Economics as elective work. Miss Gertrude Longley is the head of this growing department; Miss Esther Clark was associated with the work for over two years until Miss Linda Countryman came in at the end of the first quarter to take her place. This department has charge of the Normal cafe-teria, which serves daily lunches to faculty and students at as near cost and with the greatest variety possible. The advanced cookery class frequently entertained at luncheon for members of the faculty, or extended the privilege of a luncheon at a nominal price. For " Open House Day" exhibits were prepared and cookery demonstrations were carried on both afternoon and evening. Social times have not been neglected; two parties were given at the school for all girls in Home Economics classes, and one party for the majors, given by Miss Longley at her home. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page [117] ---------- mmm - mmm m m - i4~ r 4y =E= TT I ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 118 ---------- S K LIPS UN The Last Act FIRST PRIZE STORY By GEORGE VAN DE WVETERING Sombre and bleak was the scene. It had rained all day and now with the coming of twilight the wind increased and sighed mourn-fully over the desolate landscape. The dead trees, like ghostly skele-tons, shook their naked branches crazily. The gaunt black stumps scowled (lismally under the dark frowning masses of clouds. The low whistling of the wind sounded like a dirge, then, as it arose, like the cry of fiends, ending in a lamenting wail of despair. A woman, her figure concealed by a long clumsy water-proof, made her way along the old abandoned skid road. Nimbly she jumped from one skid to another. She went on for some distance, then left the road and turned into a narrow path winding in and out among the stumps. She leaped across mud puddles and almost fell over exposed tree roots. The path turned once more and there before her in a little hollow was a small shack, its light just visible from under the partly lowered window shade. Near the shanty stood a large cedar trees. Like a lonely sentinel it watched over the devastated landscape. Quickly the woman bounded up the tiny porch, knocked on the door, opened it and entered the room. A little chubby boy of about five, who had been playing on the floor, hastily abandoned his toys and with outstretched arms ran towards her. " Oh! It's Jennie," he shouted. " You are going to take me along, aren't you? " Jennie had removed her dripping coat and, taking the little fellow in her arms, kissed him. " Yes," she said, "if daddy will let you go." Then turning to the man sitting in an easy chair near the table: "And how are you today, Henry? Isn't this weather awful? Real Washington winter weather, isn't it? You'll let me take Eddie to the social out at the school house, won't you? I know it's bad out; but we can ride along with one of the men, and I'll take good care of him." As she spoke she looked across the dimly lighted room. The walls were covered with gray felt paper. The ceiling was of rough unplaned boards. The floor was uncovered save for a strip of rag carpet before the table. A well filled book case, on the top of which was a small statue of Rodin's " The Thinker," stood on one side of the table. On the other side were the stove and some shelves holding a few packages of groceries, some dishes and kitchen utensils. A curtain on the far-ther side of the room separated the bed room from the living quarters. The shaded lamp on the table softened the harsh lines of the room and brought out the figures of the occupants in a manner that would have delighted Rembrandt. It was a picture of contrasts. The girl was sitting near the stove, the rosy-cheeked lad on her lap. She was about twenty-four, not at all pretty, but she had a frank, sensible face. Her dark hair and brows set off her clear healthy complexion. She was one of those strong, practical, natural girls, satisfied with life as she found it. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 119 ---------- B-S.N -S S The man looked at her as she spoke. His deep set eyes, dark and intense, shone with an almost ghastly light from under his black, prominent eyebrows. Even in the rather faint lamp light it was noticeable how gray and haggard his face was. The blackness of his hair enhanced the pallor of his cheeks. The nostrils of his long, straight nose were distended with rapid breathing. His sensitive mouth opened and closed spasmodically. With one thin hand he stroked his chin, while the other one traveled irritably over the arm of his chair. For a few seconds they sat without speaking, then the girl arose impetuously and flung her arms around the man's neck. " Henry, you are not worse, are you? " she cried. " I won't go. I'll stay here with you." Then to the boy who was tugging at her dress, " We won't leave daddy, will we? " The man looked at her and then at the boy. " No, no, Jennie," he said. " I am not worse; I am all right; you must go and take Eddie. I want to be alone and do some writing. Now, son, come and kiss daddy." The boy who had moved around impatiently came and put his soft face against the hollow cheeks of his father. Quickly he wriggled out of his embrace, eagerly put on his overcoat and hat and ran to-wards the door. He was followed by Jennie, who, after putting on her coat, re-turned once more. She took the invalid's yellow hands in her p)lump, rosy ones, and looking into his eyes said, " Henry, you're sure it's all right? " He released one of his hands and stroked her hair. " Yes, it's all right, Jennie," he replied. She kissed him, then walked rapidly to-wards the door, took Eddie by the hand and closed the door behind them. He was alone. He heard the patter of the rain on the roof, the moaning of the wind and the swish of cedar branches against the cabin. With burning eyes he stared at the dark window-panes from which the rain was streaming down. And in this murky void he saw the vivid reflection of the past. He had lived most of his life in Seattle. As a boy he had helped to wait on customers in his father's grocery. Even then he had high ideals, rather indefinite and vague. Sometimes he was to be a great poet or dramatist, or perhap)s an orator, a revolutionist showing the people the great injustices and wrongs of society. Then again he would be a missionary laboring humbly but heroically on some spicy tropical island, or he would paint a great picture depicting truths more sublime than anything ever thought of before. Many things had stirred his imagination. He liked to go through the busy glittering streets and observe the throngs of people. He felt the poetry in the clanging of the street cars, the jostling of the crowds, the cries of the newsboys. In the busy public markets he watched the servile Japanese selling their wares to superior housewives. At the docks the steamers from the Orient and from Alaska gave him visions of strange, far-off places. Best of all he loved to go to the old part of the city beyond Pioneer Square. Here there was a motley crowd of humanity, mostly men, rough, picturesque miners fromn the North; uncouth, brawny loggers with hairy chests exposed, rollicking, boyish sailors, foreign looking, ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 120 ---------- 12o KLIPSUN uuuu 111111w111 1111111 1111 u11111111 u lll ll ll flll 11 ll nU UUn ml l nu mm nlm r lllll ll Ul lnll Ull lllllllllllllmllln lh ulIlgul lnnllll , IIII IIIIIIiI I Iii lil Vil il l 1l I1 lI1l1 I 1 I1I IIIIIIHII IIIII1II1II1I1I1 I1I IlI IIIIIIIIVII II:I 1 1 :I IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIi1lllllll IIIIIIi 111 IIIIII IIII IIf bearded individuals, harranguing groups of loafers. There were saloons and dance halls and women with hard, painted faces. There were quaint book stalls containing outlandish periodicals and paper-covered books with suggestive titles. In the evening he would climb the steep side streets until he reached some place from whence he was able to look down on the heart of the city beneath him. And as he saw the many lights and heard the roar of the streets below, he was strangely moved. There was something within him ever groping, vainly trying to express itself, but always he found himself impotent to do so. Upon finishing high school he had wanted to go to college. Cir-cumstances, however, had prevented him. He looked for a job, and soon found employment as a grocer's clerk. Within the next two years he worked as a wailer at a down-town lunch counter, as a filing clerk at Sears Roebuck's and finally as a seller of neckties at the Bon Marche. Then his great adventure came. He fell in love with a dreamy little brunette who sold kid gloves, in a detached, impractical way. Soon they were married. Together they had written verse, rather bad, but still not quite bad enough to be good. They read much fiction, drama and poetry. They took walks, went to the movies and sometimes to shows at the Metropolitan. Very happy they were in spite of certain indefinite longings and desires which both had. When their baby was born all these vague surgings were crowded into the background. The war came but did not directly effect their happi-ness. All at once came the influenza epidemic. A pall of gloom was over the city. Like the black death of old it crept stealthily on and on. It entered their home, and the little mother was taken ill and a few days later died. Thq husband was heartbroken. Bravely he went to his work each day. Serenely he smiled at the customers as he showed them the gaily colored ties. At evening he returned to the little flat, weary and forlorn. There his little boy awaited him and after the two had eaten their lonely meal he tried to find relief by putting down his thoughts on paper. Spring came and he decided to leave the city. He could not bear to stay any longer when so many things reminded him of the past. He had once made an auto trip from Seattle to Vancouver, British Columbia. He remembered a certain place not far from the boundary line, a beautiful slope covered with tall firs and cedars with a little clearing nearby through which ran a merry, rippling brook. A little deserted cabin was there with a few scraggly apple trees around it and one tall, magnificent cedar tree. He remembered it quite well. 'rhere he and his boy would go. He could have some chickens perhaps and a cow, or he might be able sometimes to work at nearby farms. During his leisure time he would write. He had suffered and there close to nature he would learn to express himself. He found the place just as he imagined it. Once it had been on the Pacific Highway, but other roads having been paved it was now quite isolated. He found no difficulty in renting the place from the farmer who had formerly lived there, but who had built a pretentious bungalow on another corner of his farm. Soon the shanty had been made livable and his life of peaceful monotony began. The neighbors had left him alone, thinking him a ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 121 ---------- B SS N S queer person slighly off. Together father and son had roamed through the woods, picked berries and fished in the brook. Again a change suddenly came. Why should mighty forests be left intact for eccentric individuals to enjoy, when lumber is so very costly? All these giant trees, some centuries old, were they not there to provide lumber for people at home and abroad? So thought a cer-tain lumber company and soon the work of destruction began. Men came and cleared a small space, built shacks, brought machinery and constructed skid roads. Soon the quaking of the ground accompanied by dull thuds announced the violent deaths of the powerful monarchs of the forest. The hoarse cries of the loggers and the sharp impudent whistle of the donkey engine echoed through the woods. As a persis-tent and monotonous undercurrent, came the querrelous, whining buzz of the circular saws in the mill. With these sounds mingled the odors of a lumber camp, the pungent smell of sawdust, the sickening odors of tar paper covering the shacks, and the smell of greasy cook-ing inside. The once mossy ground was covered with refuse. The brook was filled with empty cans, ashes, decayed vegetables and filthy rags. Small boys and girls with unkempt hair and grubby hands, perpetually eating big slabs of bread and jam, were playing about on piles of logs. Disheveled women were sitting on the thresholds reading novels by Bertha Clay or " The Duchess." And so gradually Henry Roberts had seen his little paradise change into an ugly, sordid waste of land. He had suffered keenly at first but later he had become impassive. He had been ill with a chronic disease for some time. He consulted the physician of the nearby town who told him plainly that there was no hope. He spent many sleepless nights thinking of what was to become of his boy. Then he met Jennie. " Cookhouse " Jennie the people of the lumber camp called her, in order to distinguish her from other Jen-nies. She with her mother had come to run the cookhouse. She had seen little Eddie playing near the brook and talking to him had found out that his father was sick. She had brought him various dainties and had stopped to talk to him. She was different from the other women of the camp. Although not at all educated, she was naturally refined and modest. Her practical, simple mind had a calming in-fluence on his feverish, morbid brain. She read his poetry, and although she did not understand it, she thought it was wonderful. He told her about his ambitions and she told him about hers. One winter she had spent in the county seat and there taken a course in steno-graphy, but her fingers had not been very nimble and she had gone back to cooking. She laughed as she said it. The friendship between them ripened into love. She knew that he could not live long; he knew that she knew, but neither one ever spoke of it. There was a tacit understanding between them and he no longer feared for his boy. Perhaps some day his son would be what he had hoped to be. He had never known how to cope with life. He had had imagination, had suffered, had keenly felt the beauty and pathos of life, but lacked the power to express himself. God! the futility of it all; the curse of having just enough imagination to be mediocre. Nothing had been accomplished and now the end. He feared it; he shrank from it. There in the dark the spectre waited for him, was coming, was seizing him by the throat. He gasped for breath. He turned his face from ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 122 ---------- 1KLIPSUN the window. What was that lying on the table? Oh, it must be the mail that Jennie had taken out of the mailbox. A catalog of books very likely or a manuscript returned. So many of his writings had come back. No, no, it was a small envelope. What was the name in the corner? The publishing firm to whom he had sent his drama " The Weary Quest." Feverishly his thin hands tore open the en-velope. Rapidly he read the letter. He fell back in his chair breath-ing fast. Good God! Could it be true? It dazed him, but the words " acceptance - great possibilities - royalty " flashed vividly through his brain. What did they say about the last act? He read it again - " Last act too tragic - change it - happy ending - people don't like sad endings - too much tragedy in real life." What did they mean? Slowly he realized it. They wanted him to alter the last act. That was it. He laughed bitterly, mockingly. " Too much tragedy in real life. Damn it, I'll not change it. People don't like sad endings, Ha! Ha! " He looked out the window. There was no longer any rain streaming down the panes. What was that light, that ghostly light? Was it the spectre of death waiting fod him? Again he felt that chok-ing sensation. It was coming, coming - he felt it. He got up. Where was the light? He could not see it. He groped for the lamp. God! it was all dark and cold - dark and cold. He wanted air: he was chok-ing. He tried to shriek. Backwards he fell in his chair, drops of sweat running off his face. The lamp had gone out. The pale moon peeped in through the window and lighted up the man's face. He opened his eyes, then closed them. A black cloud obscured the moon. The rain beat against the window. The tragedy was over. The cur-tain had gone down on the last act. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 123 ---------- B- S -N -S Our Home Beside the Sea FIRST PRIZE POEM By J.

They ran a miners' boarding house among the hills of California. The men --- dark-skinned, handsome fellows who worked in the mines- seemed, when I first met them, as remote from " my sphere " as though they had come from another planet; yet the width of a countryside road was all that lay between their house and the superin-tendent's stylish, modern bungalow opposite. I often surveyed them with disdain from behind the folds of my living room curtains, comparing our own generous expanse of well-kept lawn and tastefully arranged flower beds with the yard of the miners' cottage, where chickens, ducks and a goat or two roamed about in a comradely fashion, disturbing no one's sense of neatness or order but my own. The only evidence of care visible about their whole establishment was apparent in their vegetable garden, weeded and watered with fidelity and devotion by every member of the house-hold, and guarded by patched and rudely spliced lengths of " chicken wire " fencing. Two frowsy children slipped shyly in and out our immaculate white gateway every day, as I had not been able in common kindness to refuse them our table scraps to. feed to their menagerie of pets. My thrifty soul abhorred the thought of waste and it was really a con-venience, so I spoke with Christian kindliness to the children, but further than that we remained strangers, and " aliens." Their dogs yelped or bayed at the moon at night, disturbing our slumbers, and a husky Plymouth Rock rooster performed for us the offices of a Big Ben with ceaseless regularity. From the broad veranda of our neighbors every evening came the sounds of chattering foreign tongues, loud laughter and the squeal of an accordion on which the performer played but one tune, never bet-ter, never worse. The beer wagon stopped at their gate with alarm-ing frequency and stout, hearty fellows were always ready with strong young arms to bear heavy cases and barrels of beer and wine to the cool regions of the earth cellar beneath the old house. On Sundays and holidays jovial voices proclaimed the worship of Bacchus with song and dance, while libations of " Dago red " were poured copiously at his shrine. We saw little of the women, except as they idled about the littered veranda or hung line after line full of coarse, dark garments in the yard on wash day. Occasionally a pretty black-eyed girl would be seen walking with one of the young men past our gate on Sundays, and, decked out in holiday finery- gay hat, bright sweater and white shoes -would essay a brilliant smile and a broken English saluta-tion. But with the proneness of many " good " women to unconscious snobbery, I continued to live aloof and exclusive behind my little ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 125 ---------- B.S-N-S 125 111111111In111I1I1I 111111111111 1111 1 11II I I!n1i i m I. m 1 1 1 i 1 iII II wall of race- prejudice, perhaps the natural result of undiluted Anglo- Saxon blood and Puritan training of several generations of forebears, shutting me away from the opportunities of doing good or being of service in the great work of Americanization. That was where I was living on the memorable day when, by reason of our country's going into a " state of war " with a European power, patriotic Americans were asked to demonstrate their fealty. The little town was ablaze with flags and bunting, and we were, with pardonable pride, sending our own handsome new " Red, White and Blue" to the top of a fifty-foot pole, when a loud cheering and handclapping attracted our attention to the family across the way - our neighbors, the " aliens." A crowd of swarthy young men and laughing girls were standing about the house cheering boisterously--not at our flag as we had imagined, but with absorbing interest in the activities of a small boy who was being lifted on the shoulders of his stalwart father to the gable of the roof. Even as we stood watching them they mounted a short ladder and the child was held higher in his father's arms, and, encouraged by the cheers, nailed a little cheap printed American flag where it might tlutter in the morning breeze. There they floated - our beautiful, costly banner at the head of an expensive pole, and the cheap little cotton imitation of the most glorious flag in the world on the miners' cottage. My heart suddenly swelled as a sudden thought stabbed me with painful acuteness, and my eyes stung with hot salt tears. The super-intendent turned to laugh at my amazing change from gaiety to tears which streamed down my cheeks unheeded as I seized his hand and pointed across the road, smiling, yet sobbing: " Look! look! They - they are our people too! I never thought of it before! Not ' aliens' but Americans!

The wild birds sang for her, The sunshine danced for her On shimmering pool; And breezes cool Their cups of perfume Spilled upon the brim of day. So down the long, sweet path She wandered, Gathering, culling, hoarding, Till with heart full and soul full Of all the sweets of life She entered in, And laid them at His feet. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 126 ---------- 126 KLIPSUN Character FIRST PRIZE ESSAY By FRANK ALLISON What is character? What is that quality, possessing which we are a useful, inseparable link in the chain of brotherhood, and lack-ing which we stand an outcast in society? There is an invisible something in our makeup that urges us to perform rightfully a two-fold set of duties; those we owe to our-selves and those we owe to our fellows. That something which is the sum total of all the qualities that lend to our makeup is character. It is a quality that is being formed every day of life, either con-sciously or unconsciously. It may be modified or transformed in a thousand ways. Every thought that has ever flitted through the mind has had its influence upon character. Every act which is a direct outgrowth of thought contributes to its aid. These thoughts which we entertain should be well chosen, from infancy throughout life. Too often we allow ourselves to think upon the trashy things of life, but were we gifted with the power to pene-trate the future and could discern the effects of ill-directed thoughts upon our being, I'm sure only the good would be retained and the remainder discarded. Carlyle has said, " Thoughts are stronger than artillery parks and back of thought is love, which at least moulds the world like soft clay." In our own generation there are examples of men whose charac-ters will stand the test of ages; such a one is that of the highest official in our land, President Warren G. Harding. It was his clean, wholehearted thoughts, his great respect and his ardent love for his best friend on earth, his mother, that prompted him to present her with a bouquet of beautiful flowers every Sunday morning until she was summoned to death. It was his love for all mankind, his policy never to criticize too severely and his desire ever to do right that has gone a long way toward the making of his great character. It must have been character, true moral courage and complete conviction of principle that prompted MIr. Bryan to stand at the San Francisco convention, in the face of organized opposition and news-paper critics and hurl into that throng of opponents his well founded ideas of a democratic form of government; and although too vigorously opposed and " rolled in the dust," he was big and brave enough and sufficiently possessed of character, not to have his convictions trampled under foot. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 127 ---------- These two examples of character are representative only of men of our day. Others might be cited, such as our own Miss Baker, whose recent death, after a long life of real service in the world, saddened this school. It was her little deeds of kindness, her love for every-thing in nature, her complete devotion to service toward human kind and her supreme faith in the works of the Almighty that constructed a character we cannot forget. Let us labor in performing the daily task of life and guide our thoughts and actions so that that enviable quality, character, may take shape and grow; remembering that the light of character is dimmed by evil thoughts and acts, but shines more brightly for having done some good; remembering also that character endures through-out defamation in every form, but perishes when there is a voluntary transgression. Then at the end, it may indeed be said " the world is not so warm because another heart has grown cold, the world is not so bright because another light has gone out." ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 128 ---------- ,Y KLIPS UN The Helpful Collie SECOND PRIZE ESSAY By ELSIE PLEMMONS It was a hot summer day, and when I say that it was an Eastern Washington summer, you will know that it was hot. It was Sunday afternoon and Mrs. Williams had on a fresh, clean dress, and sat in the coolest place she could find, which was on the east porch of her home. A grain field lay in front of the house and back of it rose a steep, partially wooded hill. Out in the midst of this grain field there were six little pigs running here and there and apparently having the time of their lives. All at once Mrs. Williams saw them. She jumped to her feet. Her husband was away, and that meant that she must get the pigs out of the grain field and safely back into their pen. She was filled with vexation and she stamped her foot. She was clean and comparatively cool, but what would she be by the time she had chased six pigs over forty acres of ground, that ground a fine volcanic ash, into which she would sink to her ankles at every step? Mrs. Williams had on her new low shoes, too. Vexation is too mild a term to use. She lost her temper entirely and said unpleasant things about pigs, and particularly mean things about her six pigs. She also had remarks to make about the cruel fate that had cornered her in this fashion, on the one day when she had had time to don a clean frock, and to sit down in the shade. Then she remembered the dog, and she called to him, bidding him bring the pigs out of the grain field. But in her anger, she used a hard and stringent tone, and the dog, a beautiful, sensitive Collie, cowered at the sound of her voice, and his expressive face showed misery. He thought she was scolding him and he knew not what he had done to deserve it. She bade him go and bring the pigs, and her voice rose in a shriek, when she saw he did not move. Then she paused. The look on that dog's face brought her to a realization of what she was doing. No words that a human being could have spoken, could have brought her injustice home more clearly. The misery ex-pressed in that poor animal's eyes, as he looked upon her, was too overwhelming. He could not understand. Oh! he wanted to do what she wanted him to do, but he could not understand what it was, or what he had done that was wrong! He only was sure that she was scolding him. Mrs. Williams' shriek died away. For the moment she forgot the pigs. She gently called the dog by his name. He wagged his tail and came to her. The troubled look left his beautiful eyes. Mrs. Williams patted his head and begged his pardon, and then in kindly tones of explanation, she pointed out the little scurrying pigs in the distance and starting down the path with him, bade him get them out of the grain. And he did. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 129 ---------- B-S-N-S 1-9 October I - The first get-together mixer was held by the Students' Association.

With this object in view the Klipsun staff has worked hard and faithfully. Their trials and tribulations have been many, but their reward is correspondingly great in the satisfaction derived in working for their school and class. We wish to thank all those whose willing co-operation and hard work have made the publication of this book pos-sible. Especially do we wish to thank Miss Druse, under whose guidance the students of the Art l)epartment made the etchings which appear throughout this volume. Much credit is due to Carrie Thomas, art editor, and Mary Middle-kauf, who submitted the cover design, and various others. We also wish to thank Miss Edens, literary sponsor, who gave so freely of her time, correcting the literary material for publication. The business firms engaged in the publication of the Klipsun have co-operated with the editor in every possible way. The splendid pictures are the results of clear prints from the Brown Studio and efficient engraving work by the Seattle Engraving Co. The promptness of both these firms greatly facilitated the work of the editor. The printing this year was again in the hands of the Union Printing, Binding Stationery Co., Mr. C. S. Beard, manager, and Mr. B. E. Shellebarger, shop foreman, who had direct charge of the work, have done their utmost to make the publication a success. Once again we extend to all our appreciation and our thanks. -- HERBERT HANSEN, Editor. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page [140] ---------- TUDIV KT AOV T'mr Toy" AR~P V6 U ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 141 ---------- B-S. N- S The Business Manager Says When work was first begun on the Klipsun for this year, a dark cloud seemed to hang over the horizon. War conditions still remained at the same level as when the armistice was signed; that is to say, business condi-tions were uncertain, prices fluctuated, but more in the down-hill direction. Thus with our business houses, stock and market prices changing, we prophesied a very poor year to secure aid from them. But the business firms have with their contributions given us most courteous treatment and have aided us in every way in their power. As a result of their support, the Klipsun staff has been able to turn out one of the best annuals in years. Contracts were let to the following firms: The Brown Studio, Sunset Building, Bellingham, Washington; The Seattle Engraving Company, Seattle, Washington; The Union Printing, Binding Stationery Company, Bellingham, Washington. These firms have given the most courteous treatment possible, and have aided in pro-ducing our publication in every way. I wish to thank the students and the faculty of the Normal, along with the busines smen, for their co-opera-tion and courteous treatment. - ARCHIE ERICKSON, Manager of Klipsun, 1921. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page [142] ---------- 4Ik ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 143 ---------- B .S nS.INn n meninnnnuunn 1'',,',, 'I', , 'l l,'ll l l llluu',',' ,, ,u,il 'li' n, I un,'','I',ui un11' ,i ''i ,,,, ,,,', ',',' ',,,,inin ,,in ,u, ,u ,' ,n, ,,',n ,iw ', ,,,' ', w,, AT THE BASKETBALL GAME Mae Clark: " Is Campbell on the five?"

Karlson: " The dickens you say! Who was it? " Pruner: " The barber." DEEP! Is Powell a deep thinker? He must be. None of his ideas ever got to the surface.

S This is of Special Importance to Graduates The policy of this school is to always keep in touch with its graduates and former students so as to be of assistance to them whenever needed. The Co-Op., being a part of this institution, also desires to keep) in touch with its (ltrons, and has this proposition to make: To those of you who will be located in places where it will be impossible for you to get many of the things needed in teaching, we will agree to fill any order sent us provided iwe have the goods in stock and p)roviding cash is sent to cover. You are all more or less familiar with our prices, so in making your remittances please send enough to cover the articles, together with the postage. If there is anything left we will return the balance to you or give you credit for same. Those of you who are located handy to regular dealers, we advise that you buy of them. It is not our desire to secure business that rightfully belongs to them. ADDRESS ORDERS TO THE CO-OP C. C.

When you sit in class in coma and talk seems awful dry; and outside a big fat robin goes chirping gaily by, and the light breeze stirs the tresses of the girl in the front seat, and you fumble with your notebook and move your clumsy feet, the butterflies begin to flit and you'd rather take a licking than be sitting where you sit. When your father gets a letter that you sent him for more kale, with an incidental postscript that you're just about to fail; when profs become good-natured and the birds begin to sing, it's just the same old story - it's spring, old kid, it's spring!- Exchange.

It keeps me tossing all the night And causes me to smart; And in the morning, when I leave My bed of sleepless pain, That straw lies waiting until eve To tickle me again. I have a secret and all-absorbing grudge against the editor of this Klipsun. When the poem contest was announced, I thought of a novel method of winning the much coveted prize. I remembered an incident in one of my high school English classes in which the teacher had asked for extremely original and appro-priately named essays. Equipping myself with the indispensibles, I wrote at the top of the page: "An Essay on Paper," and handed it in. This ruse appealed homehow to the teacher's sense of humor and proved successful beyond my hopes. Encouraged by this remembrance, I resolved to treat the editor in like manner. In a carefully sealed and prepared envelope, I en-closd a sheet of paper unblemished save for the title: " Vacua - A Poem in Blank Verse," and my name at the bottom. I chuckled in glee at the thoughts of the editor's discomfiture, feeling certain that he would be a good sport and accept my contribution in solemn grace. Indeed, so did he. My joy at being announced winner was soon shattered by the receipt of the following missive, yea missile: " Dear Sir: Although your beautiful poem was awarded first prize, we are sending no pecuniary reward, as your lines are evidently the latest exhuberation of free verse." Thus far, I have not scaled Parnassus. A quick lunch turneth away digestion. While I am here, Mr. William Elder cometh forth with a copy of " Hoyle Up-to-Date," which he wisheth to be put upon his reserve shelf. ----------- Klipsun, 1921 - Page 165 ---------- B-S"N -S 1, Ii1iilU ll l nllIIII llIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlnlllllll n I mm m nIII ll i iiun l l ll I I IIII II I i nI I I I I I i iiiii l l l l II l i l l l ulllllullum l i I I l I n 1 I i i I l l i ii i i i iIullu IIII I IIIII I l IIIIIIIII III Highland Creamery H.
