Miss: Ida Baker worked very hard to get this Normal set aside as a bird sanctuary but she did not live to see her dreams fulfilled. In 1921 she^ was killed in' a streetcar accident. Her dreams did not die, however. She was the founder of the Alkisiah Club, and through, the activities of this club the board of trustees in 1921 set aside the Normal and' Normal Campus as a bird sanctuary. Very little has been done since then to improve the sanctuary. The Alkisiahg spent quite a sum of money to build the cement bird bath on the lull side back of the Normal, but it is not kept in working order. No bird houses have been put up, no feeding stations established, no usable bird baths are constructed, and so i t seems this is a bird sanctuary in name only. During the cold weather of last week it was very difficult for the birds to get food. What a blessing it would have been for them if food had been put out where they ootid get it: Hundreds of varied thrushes flew over the campus daily, going from the woods to the houses where people threw out food for them. A great many robins are with us this winter and the?' were glad of a "hand out". Not only the thrushes and robins, but the wrens, juncos, and the timid towhees gathered at the homes of those people who remembered the birds. • \ '"' It would take very little effortv or energy on any one person's part to have this shcool a working bird sanctuary, if x all the students and members of the faculty would put a little thought and work on this project. The seventh and eighth grade boys could make bird houses in their manual training classes, the various clubs of the school could give a small amount of money to buy winter food for the birds, the feding could be taken up in the nature classes in both the Normal and training school. The administration could establish sevei'al feeding stations, and repair the bird bath. In this way no. one person would be carrying a heavy load of work. Plans to make the Oregon.Club dance to be held on February 4th, a gala affair are now in full swing. At a meeting of the various committees in charge of this work held last Wednesday, plans Were formulated that will assure the Webfoot affair to be well above the ordinary. The Melodians, a six-piece orchestra, has been secured, thus affording a welcome variety to student dance-lovers, as every other affair this quarter has had the orchestra led by Frannie Wilcox. k- Those who have complained about the poor condition of the gym floor at previous functions will have little to protest about on February 4th. .Members of the floor committee will spend the major part of a day l a n d ing the floor and preparing it for the Webfoot occasion. Two features have been arranged to add interest to the dance. During the intermission a clog dance will be given by a twain of more than local fame. Two boxes of candy, "donated by a member of the Oregon Club, will be awarded to the couple adjudged winners in a "Prize Waltz" contest. This formidable title, however, need not de* ter those who are hesitant about their terpsichorean ability. Each couple will be given a favor, containing a number. The decorations will'' be featured by an avoidance, as. much as possible, of the monotonous crepe paper, depressing because of its very familiarity. When the floor is a burnished solitude, when the dancers are leaving, you will surely know that you have known happiness. OF 1927 BEGINS THIS WEEK • — — '. lt;-. Last Call for Sophomore Photos. Orders for Club Picture-Cuts Should be in by Next. Monday. Work on the printing of the 1927 Klipsun will begin next week according to Katherine Leach, editor. All sophomores who have not had their pictures taken yet will have to rush them before next week.x Club pictures will also be taken by that time, weather permitting. Clubs desiring their picture-cuts ordered for the Klipsun will have to pay $8.50 to the editor or the buesiness manager of the :Klipsun before February 1; according to the editor. Failure to do this 'will' mean forfeiting the privilege to have a picture in the Klipsun. In "a "preliminary to the -Normal- Frosh game, the Junior Varsity played a poor brand of basketball to .

Many people are wondering what the new building is to contain; some think it is to be used for offices, while others are doubtful as to its use. The new building is to contain the school's present library which consists of a very good collection of books. These books have been selected with the greatest thought and care, and University graduates would find material here which would aid them in their various fields of work. Many have -the impression that it is the library that is inadequate while this is not true. It is the reading room which is not large enough to accommodate the students, and such a fine collection of books on the Normal shelves is worthy of an equally fine, building, as the "school is soon to have. Students are eagerly looking forward to such a building where there- will be less crowded conditions. But after all, students should rememr her that what^constitutes the library is the books, ^ r id the readers are what make.it live.\ R E I N A L D WERRENWRATH, Famous American Baritone^ Will Sing at the First Christian Church, Monday, January 31, at 8:15 P.

No matter how much some people may say to the contrary, there is one side of school life that cannot be emphasized too much, the social side,: This is especially true of a school which is training young men and young women to be teachers. When you'get out into a community to teach school you are looked upon as a social leader. This is probably more evident in a rural community. " Here at the Normal .we have excellent opportunities to partake of social functions. There is the recreation hour on Friday afternoon. Here we form.acquaintanceships that ripen into friendships. Here we may mingle or associate with the other students as a part of a democratic group. In addition to the "rec hour" there are numerous social affairs that students may attend. There are club dances, and class mixers. The informal get-together at the hall the other afternoon was one of the most successful of its kind that has ever Been sponsored here. Probably it would be a good plan to have more informals of the same nature. It is hoped that a greater number of students will avail themselves of the opportunities to attend social-affairs for it is only by having a large group present that we get full enjoyment from them. YES, A BIGGER A N D BETTER, W H A T ! .. Our slogan for the present quarter and the coming term of school is a ^'bigger and better" Messenger. The .only way that this can be accomplished is to have the co-operation of the entire student body. Hand in that piece of information that you think will be interesting to the students. Give^ us that little joke. In order that our paper be able to support itself, in part at least, it is necessary to have advertising. When' you go to a firm downtown that "rum" paid advertising matter in our paper, tell them you are from the Normal school; It will create a better feeling among our patrons and the students. * MUSSOLINI ; ANDr OPINION Mussolini says: "The world hafc noi respect' for "the man who hias, no opinion" according to Tom Skeyhill who lectured on "Mussolini and the Black Shirts" at the NormalAudi? toriirai last Mreek. Verilyf : verily, for the man ^that has no opinion, no conviction or his 'Own,- is only a tool; a machine, which Ms to' be used and operated by a ..more intelligent fellow man. Jie is like the wheel of a car which the driver handles and directs according'to his will. He does not function as he ought to; he is ah unfortunate, living tool.

This dramatization, involves a knowledge of the history of fur trading in the United States including some of the most prominent companies and the lives of the early traders. Life should thus be guided by the principle of independent tinking, and action thru one's own conviction. He, who wants.to be a leader, must learn to lead, and not be pulled by the nose and led wherever someone wants him. The long, dark and brilliant pages of history offer innumerable examples of leaders ,who stuck. to their, own opinions. INDEX TO ONE'S CHARACTER Tom Skeyhill says that the index to one's character. is his writing. I should say it is. One would but have to read* Emerson's essays to understand the character of. that much-loved American .essayist. The writings of Lincqln portraying the the inner self of one of the greatest of American statesmen. In _ addition to this fact, however, it might be said that one infallible index to one's character Is his real life, the sum total of the deeds and the small incidents that one experiences while living Arthur L. Marsh, executive secretary of the Washington Education Association, who has established legislative headquarters at Olympia during the present session, is sending to each unit of the W. E. A. a weekly bulletin affecting educational: legislation and other topics presented by the Executive Secretary. This practice will no doubt contribute a great deal toward bringing the educators of the state into closer contact with the legislative assembly. The organization of a new honorary scholarship society was announced last month at the Cheney Normal. Just what the function of this society is to be was not stated, but it is evident that the Cheney Normal has seen fit to apply a little survival of the fittest, such as we have. Ellensburg Normal has made it possible for all out of town students to be housed on the campus. Two hew dormitories have been occupied since the Christmas holidays. A REFLECTION OF IDEALS It is a familiar experience with anybody who has spent some years in college that the first two or three weeks in the quarter are replete with all kinds of social activities, which foster closer relationship among the students, and a better understanding and harmony between the student body and the faculty. In our own Normal schooLwe are not found wanting in these, the apparent essentials of college life. Last week we had the Get-together Mixer for all the students, so much boasted of by both students and faculty members; we heard also of the College informal, and, by the way, this club has as ONE of its aims, the fostering of high scholarship—which was not a failure; and this week, just watch the calendar and note how many more social functions" are in the waiting list. (CHARLES S. MOORE) O Life! thou'rt a .wave on the Ocean of Time, That moveth thyself to the'wind's wilful rhyme; Those winds are the passions that stir the cold heart, That causeth. the depths of emotions to start. Full oft, thou art fanned by the dulcets of lovc-^—• Full oft, the deep muttering storm cloud niay move Thee to fury, and lash thee, and cause thee to lie All trembling and white 'neath a storm beaten sky. Again thou'rt a mirror -neath the arabesqued blue, Reflecting the gods of the pure upper air; So limpid, translucent, thine opaline hue, That the stars in their courses seem not half so fair. Again thou'rt a besom of woe in'thy track, Destroying-the cliffs which stood judgment for years; Attacking the monotone creeds till they crack, Then breaking thyself into penitent tears. Ebullient wave, there is purpose divine, To sift out Life's actions, the coarse from the fine; To modify, stratify, move or retain; " . - To fashion the contour of Life's wide domain.

It is necessary - to lead yelling at a football game but yelling should not be forced or directed at a basketball contest.

The mix was equal to any ever played between two rival Normal schools of this state—-the Savages, huge favorites to cop, barely nosing through with the victory with but a few seconds to go.

HERE AND THERE The Junior Varsity is on its way to the Championship of the second half of the split schedule in Class B. -t Ellensbufg had a better team than was rumored around the Bellingham Normal.. MeClurken, the fast little Super-varsity man, has been playing some real basketball against the City League Class A teams. Bob Fisher found the basket in the Wrecker game. Art Isaacson's and Harry Bensen's names cannot be separated. The world must know that they, also, played great basketball against the Froeh.' Oscar Thorsen's work at center pot-itioa must be commented upon. Thorsen attacked up wen against the elongated Frosh center. FROSH DEFEATED In one of the fastest and most exciting basketball contests ever engaged by two normal schools of this state, the Bellingham Vikings defeated the Ellensburg Wildcats in two overtime .periods, 33-30, at Ellensburg last. Tuesday. At the end of the regular playing time, the score was deadlocked at 29 all; one five minute .session saw the tie unbroken, but in the second,. the Vikings broke loose to win the first tri-normal mix of the year. Vikings Get Early Start. The Vikings piled tip an early lead, playing bang-up basketball, and had a 20-14 lead at the end of the half, immediately after the opening of the second session, the Wildcats got going and completely outplayed Bellingham bringing the score up.to 29 all. Then came the thrilling finish. Jensen, with his broken nose, still far from healed," starred for Normal, playing a good floor game and leading .the scoring with 12 markers. _• Ray Odell who previously had scored 64 points in three games was held down to a surprisingly low total of 4 points. The Wildcat guards evidently had advance dope on how to check his peculiar hook- style shot. Team Played Well The Viking team as a whole displayed a good "brand of ball and deserved the victories. It was Ellens-burg that showed more unexpeted strength; • The Wildcats were rated as the weakest outfit among the three normals, but judging from Tuesday"s performance, will make trouble continually for Bellingham and Cheney in future engagements. The EllensburgrCheney-Wildcat-Savage set-to at Ellensburg Saturday, February 5, shold prove exceptionally interesting. The Viking's total score was contributed to by all the players, Jensen making twelve points; Keplinger, nine; Isaacson, five; Odell, four; and Bensen, three. on Strong Teams on Home Floors LEAGUE STANDING at Vikings, 32; Lyndeii, 24 .

The Indian names and the ranks of all of the girls were recorded. Plans were made for the following meeting. In order to learn the different methods of bandaging, the group met Thursday night. Miss Kathleen ©'Malley demonstrated the work. Several Camp Fire songs which are to be sung at the Council Fire were practiced. ,. o—: Maurice Thomas, one of the officials at last Saturday night's basketball game, is now principal at Preston.

All young women are cordially invited to attend the" regular meetings . at 4 o'clock every Thursday, in room 308. o— Following close on the heels of the hard Ellensburg and Cheney contests, the Vikings are to meet the Spokane College five tonight at Spokane. Little is known of the Collegians' strength this season, but last year Carver's men gained two easy victories over them, BO a hard tussle is not expected for the Normalites. There is a chance, however, that the Inland Empire boys may have a dark horse on hand, and, playing .on their own floor, may provide some real excitement. " By Althea Horst Raymond Courtesy vthe Bellingham Herald ; Themusical devotees of this, city were treated to a-• piano "concert which will long be remembered as the most artistic heard here for some time. Charming Elly Ney, the world famous pianiste, made her first appearance before a Bellingham audience. . A beautiful picture in, green and silver, sheVon her listeners from the start with her gracious manner. The program opened with the "Six .Variations in F Major" of Beethoven follows by the "Moonlight Sonata" by the same composer. The delicate tones of the first movement in contrast to the brilliant rendition of the last, made this oft played Sonata one of unusual interest. A lovely romance by Brahms and a stirring impromptu of Schubert, brought forth two encores of which the "Spinning Song" by Mendelssohn, proved most popular. From the moderns, /Mmo. Elly Ney chose three extremely interesting numbers th • "March of Prokief ief f", and "Dance d'Olaf", by Pick Man-giagalli, which was heard here for the first time, while the "Danse of Debussy*, played with beautiful shading gave a splendid finish to the group. Responds to Encore. . Of the all Chopin group whicvh concluded the "program the "Ballade in A Major," proved to be the climax of' the evening. Mme.'Ney responded very generously to two.encores, two danses of Beethoven and a restful lullaby of Brahms. No pianist, who has appeared here, has ever given us more real joy than Elly Ney. Such delicate thread-like playing and the tiny belllike tones • followed by the marvelous volume produced in heavy chord effects, certainly convinced us of her right to the title of queen of pianists. This concert was the second in the A N INSPIRATION TO HIKERS Or a Challenge to^the Kodaker. SNAPSHOTS WANTED FOR KLIPSUN SOON Good Snaps Now At Premium.
