THE SEQUELLE
Foreword
"Friendship, peculiar boon of Heaven,
The noble mind's delight and pride. To men and angels only given.
To all the lower world denied."
In publishing this edition of The Sequelle, the Class of 1925 has engaged in a labor of love. The friendships formed during our normal school days and the affection which we hold for The Clarion State Normal School have been the impelling motives in our efforts to publish a senior annual worthy of the traditions of this institution. How well we have succeeded must be left to the verdict of more ex- perienced workmen and wiser minds.
While we are deeply appreciative of the formal instructional features of our student days, we desire to emphasize in this publication the personal or human element. The inspiration and joy which we have re- ceived from our association with classmates and in- structors are, in the last analysis, the choicest jewels of our educational experience at Clarion.

The Purple and the Gold
Have you seen our banners waving In the field or in the hall, Where the students all assemble When they hear the old bell call? These bright colors, gayly floating, Speak alike to young and old Of the joys of Clarion Normal And the Purple and the Gold.
Have you heard our students singing As they march along their way, Whether duty sternly calls them Or some pleasure points the way? All together proudly singing They proclaim in accents bold Their great praise of Clarion Normal And the Purple and the Gold.
Have you heard our students cheering
As they meet from day to day;
Either seated in the chapel
Or engaged in contest gay?
All these voices, loudly shouting
Have to everybody told
A great love of Clarion Normal
And the Purple and the Gold.
If you've seen our banners waving.
If you've heard our singing, too.
And the voices of our cheering
Have brought any thought to you;
Then we know you've thrilled with pleasure,
And you've felt a pride untold.
For the glory of our Norma'
And the Purple and the Gold.

Class History
There are many important things in the history of the class of twenty-five which should be recorded. Unfortunately there is not space nor time for any- thing more than a transient glance at even the most momentous events. In general, however, I believe that I am safe in saying that with this class came a great renaissance. The individuals wearing the colors of twenty-five immediately took up the routine duties necessary about the school and greatly improved every activity of the Normal. The great wisdom of the group was made ap- parent when Donald Campbell was elected as first year president. This thought- ful decision fortified the class for all time against any charges of amateurishness. Since then the class has carefully maintained its inherent dignity.
Needless to say, "twenty-five" came safely through the junior year. In fact it was rumored that at several of the strictly non-academic functions it was very imperative that the first year students attend. This was especially true of senior week, although the proceedings of that year are reported to have been only mildly strenuous.
It remained for the class of the quarter century to stage a genuine senior week. During this hectic seven day epoch the juniors of Clarion were compelled to undergo the most severe test that has ever been devised, when they were forced to listen to the campus reader recite innumerable stanzas from, "The Cremation of Sam McGee."
At the first meeting of the second year officers were elected. Just to show that the new seniors had lofty plans, Dorothy McCullough was chosen as presi- dent.
Shortly after this election the school conferred the first degree in its history when C. Martin was granted permission to add Z-E-R-0 to his name. This is a much higher honor than an M. A., and it is the first time it has ever been given to an American.
Classes had not been organized for more than a month when an unexpected survey revealed the surprising fact that there were a few boys in school. This brought up plans for a football team, but the coach had difficulty in making an eleven from seven. Then too, after watching the senior girls wallop the junior co-eds at field hockey, the boys decided that the only way for them to keep up with the fairer sex in sports would be to wait for the next war.
In January of nineteen twenty-five the girls of J. George Becht Hall were relieved of much anxiety when Peg Prosser was finally able to locate her brother John.
The majority of the future school "marms ' and master had by this time been given an opportunity to display their wares in the training school. The total number of depredations against the system has not yet been tabulated.
In closing this brief register it is well to state that the seniors of twenty- five were always religiously concerned about the welfare of the under-classnien; in fact, some of the young ladies kept a diligent eye over quite a few of the verdant juniors. They were always forward in advocating new restrictions to be placed on the dormitory girls, and at times were very enthusiastic about changing quiet hour to Saturday evening. However, all in all the class of twenty-five represents one of the most serious-minded groups of students who have ever said "good-bye" to Clarion Normal.

Class Poem
Wisdom, " so saith the Wise One, 'Is more precious than rubies or gold." Ah, then! What a buccaneer's treasure Lies deep in our ships' guarded hold.
For we have the wisdom of Wilson,
And we have the methods of "Dad; "
And we have the warning of "Wilkie,
Thus, "Put not your trust in a fad."
We have talked our heads off for Miss Edgar,
We have written them blank for Miss Nair,
But we thank these two for the knowledge
Our minds have stored in them there.
We have written new textbooks in history.
And daily we've handed them in;
We've sailed round the world for Miss Lemon,
And hidden our fears with a grin.
For we're wise — so they say, — and we're polished.
All our lives for the Truth we shall strive;
But they'll fruitlessly search through the season,
For another Nineteen Twenty-five.
So it's been, — good and bad, poor and perfect, —
(Though the perfect has rarely been seen)
But we love the dear place, and the buildings;
And its memory will ever be "Green."
If wisdom be worth more than rubies. And knowledge more than fine gold, — Ah then! What a buccaneer's treasure Lies deep in our ships' guarded hold.

1925
Y. M, C. A.
One of the most important phases of the students' education is that received in the Y. M. C A. This organization was fully re-organized this year. A new constitution was drawn up which went into effect in March. This was the beginning of a new era in the religious training of the young men of Clarion State Normal School. Many interesting programs were presented, in which every member participated, and every one acknowledged that this training was an im- portant part of his college life.
The Y. M. C. A. meets Wednesday night of each week at 6:45 P. M. The meetings are of informal nature and every one feels free to express his opinions and to offer suggestions for the betterment of the organization. At the present time we have access to one of the finest equipped Y. M. C. A. rooms in any of the Normal Schools, and we appreciate it very much. At almost any hour of the day you will find some member of the Y in this room studying his next assignment for some lesson in the Normal.
The Y. M. C. A. believes in developing the individual in four phases of life, namely, the religious, the mental, the physical, and the moral. This four-fold aim had been carried out in all of the weekly meetings.

The Y. W. C. A. has been a great benefit to the students of Clarion Normal. Its purpose has been to promote their growth in real Christian living. Every Wednesday evening the girls meet in the Chapel and talk about some of the vital problems of life.
Morning Watch is conducted each day at 6:55 in the "Y" parlor. Here the girls talk about some phase of Christian living, that may be applied to their everyday life.
The Social Service Committee has been very active in helping the poor and in caring for the sick.
Last year three girls were sent to the Eagles Mere Conference. They brought back with them many useful suggestions, which have helped to make the "Y" a success this year.
We have achieved the remarkable results of this year's work through the enthusiasm and co- operation of each member.

With the hearty co-operation of the officers and the untiring efforts of Miss Lemon the Bancroft Literary Society has proved a success. The meetings of the Bancroft Literary Society are held every Friday evening from seven to eight o'clock. Enjoyable musical and literary programs are given.
A very interesting debate was held between the Literary Societies on December 5. 1924. The subject for debate was: "Resolved, that the United States Should Enter The League of Nations." The Bancrofters, upholding the negative side, convinced the judges to decide in their favor.
"Sweet and Twenty." a play given by several members of the Bancroft Literary Society proved such a success that it was given at the Woman's Club at one of their special meetings on February 23. 1925.
The Bancroft Literary Society was victorious in the hockey game which was played with the Franklin Literary Society on November 22, 1924,
A play entitled, "Enter The Flero " by Theresa Helburn was given on April 17, 1925 by members of the Bancroft Literary Society.

Under the direction of Miss Eldith Swartz, President, Miss Loletta Hays. Chairman of Pro- gram Committee, and Mr. H. P. Caldwell, Faculty Advisor, the members of the Franklin Literary Society held many enjoyable meetings during the year and derived much benefit.
On November 22, 1924, a hockey game between the rivals, the Bancrofters and the Frank- linites was witnessed. The score was 5-0 with the Bancrofters in the lead.
On Friday, December 5, 1924 a very interesting debate was staged between the two societies. The subject for debate was: "Resolved, that the United States Should Enter the League of Nations" The Franklin team had the affirmative. The judges' decision was 2-1 in favor of the Bancroft team.
However, the Franklins were not discouraged by the losses of these two contests, but chal- lenged the Bancrofters to a basketball game to be played in the near future.

Demosthenian Society
The Debating Club is not the oldest organization at Clarion but it can be justly said that it is one of the best organizations. The Club was first organized under the careful leadership of our Principal. Dr. Green, during the term of 1920-21. The success of the Club is credited to Dr. Green because of the splendid start he gave it.
The membership is made up of young men who are willing, co-operative workers and who are desirous of promoting every interest that arises.
Meetings are held once each week; the splendid arrangement of programs makes these meet- ings both interesting and inspiring. Each night instruction is given in parlimentary law. and formal debates are held semi-monthly; the balance of time is given over to talks by prominent men, members of the club, and the entertainment committee which provides a real surprise each meeting night. Dinner parties and after dinner speeches are always popular.
The debating team has challenged a number of noted teams and has been victorious over all those who accepted the challenges.
It is doubtful whether the club would have reached its high degree of success this year had it not been for the untiring efforts of Professor Huston, who sacrificed much valuable time in aiding the club by giving practical assistance to the members as well as the officers.

One of the most worth-while organizations at Clarion is the Sketch Club. It is composed of those who are especially interested in art.
Some very enjoyable meetings are held out-of-doors, where every member, not only does some very splendid work in sketches, but also enjoys a social time.
Under the helpful directions of Miss Bentz the Sketch Club has produced some very credible work. Long live the Sketch Club. May it always be as helfpul and enjoyable an organization as it now is.

Student Government
We have been very proud of the way in which the Student Government of Clarion Normal School has carried on its work this year.

"The Players" have proved themselves one of the active organizations of the year. Under the direction of Miss Edgar, the members presented a program of three one-act plays during the first semester. These were so successfully given that another program is being prepared for a later date. The Weekly Meetings were a source of enjoyment and became even more of a success in the new club room set aside for use by Principal Green. Good leadership and co- operation working hand in hand have brought the reward of many jolly times to our society.

" A GYPSY LOVE MOON"
(Peggy Poe) Scene — Forest Glen. Time — Present.
Donna Floriella — A Gypsy Queen Winifred Joseph
Jose — The Favorite of the Queen Marie PavHck
Miguel — A Gypsy Bandit , Josephine Monfre
"A Gypsy Love Moon" is a fantasy based on the true story of an old gypsy king. It is the romantic story of how he fought for, and won, his gypsy love. The Romany love songs and dances lend to the atmosphere of gypsy intrigue and romance.
"DUST OF THE ROAD"
(Kenneth Sawyer Goodman)
Scene — Farmhouse Living Room. Time — Christmas after the War.
Peter Steele — - John Prosser
Prudence Steele — His wife Julia Dickinson
An Old Man — Prudence's Uncle ...Floyd Faulkner
A Tramp Emmet Gillespie
"Dust of the Road," a one act drama is strong in its lesson of "keeping the joy of living in your heart through true honesty." Peter Steele has been given some money to keep in trust for his friend who goes to war. After his friend's death he is tempted to keep the sum, but Judas in the guise of a tramp, "Dust of the Road" shows him that the way of he who sells his soul for silver is the long road of suffering repentance.
"THE LIE THAT JACK BUILT"
(George Earle)
Scene — Ellison's Bachlor Apartments and Workshop Time — Present.
Jack Ellison Verner Cresswell
Frank Montgomrey — A Friend Don Campbell
Helen Douglas — Jack's fiancee Geraldine Dovenspike
Doris Taylor — Another Woman Wilda Cook
"The Lie that Jack Built" is a sparkling comedy portraying the embarrassing entanglements of the modern young man who is too deeply interested in more than one of the opposite sex. His first lie is seemingly harmless, but grows to such proportions that eventually he loses the love of his fiancee and is ridiculous in the eyes of his friend. He will "never love another woman, never," but when Mabel calls he forgets all his resolutions and begins all over again.

One important part of the music department of Clarion Normal School is the Girls' Glee Club. This organization consisting of sixty-six girls is the largest known in the history of Clarion. The girls were selected and trained under the direction of Miss Canan.
We are pleased to say that the Glee Club had some invitations to sing in the nearby towns, where they gave some very pleasing concerts.

Boys^ Basket Ball
Clarion Normal opened the 1924-25 season with an excellent showing, and as the season progressed, fine team work developed. At the call for candidates by Coach Moody, about twenty- men responded, including three letter men of the last year's squad. From this number a good combination was finally selected.
The high score field goal man was Captain Cresswell, our big ambling center. Throughout the season Cress played an offensive and defensive game that was a credit to his closing year as a Normalite. He was closely followed by Schettino, the Reynoldsville High flash, whose sensa- tional shots and ability in shooting fouls will long live in the minds of Clarionites. For his running- mate it was a toss-up between Binney and Slattery, both fast men, and also Gillaspie, who was forced to retire after four games. The guard positions were filled by Ross, a splendid, consistent player with an ability to break up passes that cost the opponent many a game, and Prosser, of Rocky Grove, whose sureness at foul shooting was almost uncanny. These men were aided by H. Campbell, a little speed merchant whose place on next year's team is assured, also Jones of Reynoldsville. whose excellent record was stopped by injuries.
The second team was of great assistance in whipping the varsity into condition. With the graduation of Cresswell, Ross, Slattery, Jones, Binney and Gillespie, the squad will receive a severe blow, but in spite of this a successful season is looked for in 1925-26.

Girls'* Basket Ball
Every so often the fates that be, decree that a school shall lose all its old players. This was true of the girls basket ball team at Clarion Normal this year. Clarion Normal, a potential factor in athletics last year, was left with one regular (who. on account of illness, was unable to play the larger part of the season), and a substitute from last year, the balance all being new players.
In all athletics, it requires time for any new material to develop. But our new team played with just as much courage as a veteran team. Our opponents included teams of much experience and practice. Because of the strong opponents in the first of the season, our scores were not what we might wish. But we proved what we could do when our players became used to each other by winning the last four games of the season. Team play was developed to a marked degree this year, and we will have most of the players next year as the regular team consisted of only two Seniors and four Juniors. This is a very promising outlook.
The team, though small in stature in comparison with some other teams, made up in fighting spirit. Baldwin. Decker, Heilig. the Wilkinsons, (Margaret and Ruth, Hepler) and McNeil were all fighters. This team is a credit to Clarion Normal.
With the material at hand, the writer prophesies a brilliant future in basketball.

Our second hockey
found many new recruits and much interest in this outdoor sport
The team was coached by Miss Mary G. Whiteman who deserves much credit for the part she played in introducing hockey to Clarion Normal last year.

Training School News
One of the important features of the Clarion Normal School is the Training School Department.
Because of the increased number of student teachers for the last semester, two new training rooms have been added.
Everything is being done to make the class-rooms and halls attractive. A rest room comfortably furnished has been arranged for the training teachers, which is highly appreciated. Many new pictures and other works of art have been provided for every room. A large statue of the "Winged Victory" now stands at the entrance to the second floor in Science Hall.
For the first time since the organization of the Junior High School, it is under the supervision of a separate principal, Mr. Becker.
A new plan has lately been adopted, in which the student teachers can get new ideas by seeing other large schools in operation. The plan was first put into execution when the members of the Junior High School group went on a trip to the New Castle Junior High School. They returned with glowing ac- counts and reported a decidedly profitable trip. Similar tours are being planned for the members of the Primary and Intermediate groups.
The training teachers this year are perhaps the most efficient the school has ever had.
Teaching in the training school is a most profitable and delightful exper- ience for the student teachers.

^'Improvements Lead to Success, " So Says Clarion Normal
In the last year our school has taken some decided steps towards advance- ment.
Seminary Hall has been entirely remedied. The main office and the regis- trar's office have been fully equipped with new furniture.
For the first time in the history of the school we have a vested choir. Miss Canan and Mr. Green have made it possible to have available fifty vestments for the choir.
Two moving picture machines have been installed in the Chapel. This improvement makes it possible for demonstration lessons to be used by the instructors. Our Saturday nights are now anticipated with keen interest, for Mr. Green has arranged to have some of the best known pictures shown in the Chapel. "Quo Vadis " and "Kidnapped" were greatly appreciated.
Navarre? Alas! It is no more. From now on that particular building will answer to the name of J. George Becht Hall.
The halls, reception hall, students' parlor, and dean's office in J. George Becht Hall have been repainted in pleasing tones of grey. New carpets and new furniture have added greatly to the comfort and appearance of the dormitory.
An Ampico reproducing piano has been installed in the social room. This enables us to enjoy music during meal time and for dancing.
Heretofore it has been necessary for the girls living on the third floor of Becht Hall to go to the second floor to find a parlor, but now they have a first class one in front hall on third floor.
Another walk, did someone say? Why certainly, we now have a walk ac- cross the campus from Stevens Hall to Eighth Avenue.
No wonder so many students have been missing Chapel in the past years. You ask why? Because the heavy iron doors could not be moved by some of our frail pupils. Future pupils listen! Think up a new excuse. The heavy doors have passed from our world and new wooden ones greet us from the Chapel entrance.
Did you say you liked to read? Get in touch with the Normal Library. One thousand volumes have been added to it this year and twenty-five hundred volumes have been added for the use of the rural schools. There is no excuse for rural school being without a library when Clarion Normal has a good supply of books all ready selected and packed all ready to be used.

The Past Unearthed
Dear students, in pity for the faculty. 1 shall strive here to make them seem more like human beings instead of grinding machinery. They are real, live people, you know. They are indeed. In considering how to convince you of this, I reasoned in this manner: "1 believe that they are human.
All human beings (except new-born babes) have a past.
Therefore, being human, our teachers must all have pasts.
Consequently, it is my duty as a servant of mankind to unearth these pasts and dig out for use all facts that will prove my point."
This 1 did. and the following is the result of my search:
Clyde presented a great problem in his youth. Rough, uncultured- — he was enough to reduce the rest of the family to tears of hoplessness. At five, he could chew tobacco as fast as their hired man, swear like a poll-parrot, play cards like a professional, and roll dice like a coon. In desperation, his parents decided to send him to a house of correction. Clyde happened to be hovering about the keyhole of the parlor door when these plans were discussed and straightway ran away from home. In his wanderings some months later, he dropped in a church one Sunday night to get out of the rain. His hard heart was melted by the rural choir's anthem and reform- ation took place. After this Clyde worked hard to make his education a success. He entered "Miss Gray's School For Kindergartners " and was finally installed at our school as principal. Take heart, dear readers! There is yet hope for you.
Mud-pies! Caterpillars! Tight-ropes! Tatters! Dumplings! What more can we say of Janet's youth? A rosy-posy girl brimming over with life and good spirits! Never clean — but who cared! Always ragged — but what mattered that! Everyone loved her, although it was rather a nuisance when Janet decided to bake her mud-pies in the oven of the kitchen stove, or when she wished to preserve her precious butterflies in the family Bible. Janet has never changed her cunning ways and remains just as efferverscent as a little child.
Willis was. naturally, a shiftless dreamer. In school he was a perfect picture of laziness and solid comfort. He might be seen at all times gazing vacantly out of the window, sitting on his back-bone, his long legs sprawled out in the aisle ready to trip some one, his dirty pencil in his mouth. He shunned work as he would the mumps and never cared to even know whether the sun revolved about the earth or the earth about the moon. He didn't care about anything simply because he was too lazy to care. (Something in common with us. dear readers). So now we know why Dad makes us do all the talking in class. He's too lazy to do it himself.
Mary Gertrude was an old-fashioned, prim sort of child. She never liked to run and play as normal children do. In fact, she was perfectly content if she could sit in her little high chair with her primer to learn her ABC's. Later on, she liked the Elsie Dinsmore series (as a good girl should). In Mary Gertrude's opinion, it was indeed extremely bad taste for anyone to put a mouse in her pocket — ^dead or alive. If anyone ever offered her a lollypop. she would sweetly say. "I thank you kindly, but since it is not yet my dinner hour. I really cannot accept it." At the age of 14. she accidently fell into a tub one day and liked the watery sensation so much that she decided to learn to swim. One incident led to another until Mary Gertrude discarded her Thoreau and took up the vocation of physical training. How thankful we should be for that tub!
James does not surprise us now as we recall his childhood. He was always small for his age — a pale, thin, sickly little boy who was forced to wear glasses at an early age. When he was four years old, he found great joy in reading aloud Milton's works to his playmates, who would sit enraptured at the sound of his voice. He greatly disliked active games. While the older people were talking up the mysteries of the modern age. James would sit on the edge of his little chair in deep meditation, ready to take part in the discussion and give valuable advice. He never emptied the cooky jar behind his mother's back or played hooky! Since no one knew much about social subjects, and James was such a good talker, his parents considered it fitful that he should uplift society in this manner. So here he is — heart and soul.
Now prepare for a surprise — rather, a shock! Iva Shive was a rough little tomboy in days gone by. She never cared whether she had on a bright red shirt and a pair of green overalls, or whether she wore a dress tied about the middle like a sack. Ida's favorite pastime consisted in
digging for worms and no, not going fishing but dissecting them- — cutting them up into
little, wriggly, squirmy pieces to see if they are hollow inside. One day, at the age of twelve, she came across a book on designing and on the spot decided to devote her life to the glory of Art. Ida declares that that book alone marked the turning point in her life. Never again those scream- ing combinations. Ida is now in a most self sacrificing manner giving up all worldly pleasures that Art may be uplifted and heart breaking color schemes seen no more.
Clair was a favorite with everyone when he was a child. He was precocious — even as an infant when he preferred to look at the latest scientific journal to playing with his toes. At the age of five. Clair wrote a book of poems. At ten, he wrote his first book on psychology. Ever since he has been writing on this subject until he now has quite an extensive library at Clearfield. It is said that it is because of his great insight of the human mind that he is still in a single state of being.
A harum-scarum youngster was our Bertha Virginia. Down on the old farm she delighted in playing actress out in the barn. At one time she was an Indian chief, again a circus clown or
THE SEQUELLE
a beautiful maiden in distress. At an early age she became quite a flirt — not for the sake of flirting itself, mind you! — the dear child was really imagining herself to be a vamp like Theda Bara. Her constant cry, her mother says, was "I'm gonna be a great actress when 1 grow up, ain't I, mama?" But she outgrew this tendency and in the course of time became really quite respect- able.
We mustn't forget our Henry. Henry was famous as a child for his wondrous beauty. Indeed, he was quite in demand among famous artists. Today we may see his portraits in the best Art studios all over the world. Henry was always generous and gave at least one sixth of his salary (which was large for one so small) to his parents. But alas! Disaster overtook him at the age of eighteen. Artists everywhere turned away from the cherubic type of beauty and instead began to paint the fierce, savage type. Our Henry was sadly grieved for a time, but misfortune cannot tie a good man down. He learned to spell and count and soon afterward joined our faculty circle.
What a prim child was Dorothy! Mothers set her up as a model of good behavior and neat- ness for their own daughters to follow. Always spotlessly clean, she could be seen walking sedately along to school half an hour before the bell rang, her spectacles pushed down to the tip of her nose, weighted down with books. Dorothy was taught to listen instead of talk (as all good children should be taught). Lo, friends, she was kept quiet too long! That is why she likes to talk so well today and why she chose talking as a career.
There are still some teachers to describe, but oh. dear me! I'm getting frightened — badly frightened. Just now I see the horrors of suspension looming over me with the dangers of ex- pulsion too near for comfort So I'm going to stop at once. But if the worst should happen, I hope that I shall not have died in vain — that some one will understand these poor, erring teachers just a little better. Winifred Joseph.
Fads
Big Ben is never more unreasonable than at six-thirty in the morning. He has a habit of
interrupting my rest at this unfortunate time to carry on a conversation with me.
"Ding! Ding!" said he loudly, trying to out-do the town's loudest church bell. Translated
from Clockish, this means: "Ho. hum! 1 wonder what this day will bring forth?" "Ask me. Benjamin." I answered. "1 suppose a new edition of feminine fads." "It's awful, isn't it?" chimed my friend, who always ticks good English. "What are the
women up to now? I suppose things have changed a great deal since they took me out of the
shop window."
'I should say so," I exclaimed. "The women vote now and that's opened an avenue for all
sorts of fads. Before the next election, ballots are all to be made of silk and tied with pink ribbons.
Tea is to be served at all polls, and there will be dancing in the afternoon and evening. The
present buildings will be remodled for the fairer sex. and the men will vote at what was formerly
the jail."
"1 see. " said the sympathetic Benjamin, rubbing his hands over his face, "a new era in politics." "You're right, " 1 answered gloomily, "it's now fashionable for our lady friends to be in office.
Of course, there are a few left who are nor candidates for some posistion, but these are managing
to get along pretty well by making two or three speeches each week."
"That's bad. " sighed Ben. "What will be the effect of this on our politics? "
"It looks as though the old orders were doomed," I said. "One day the ladies are Democrats
and the next. Republicans. It looks as though the party that publishes the best style catalogue
will seize the national control."
"By the way." queried Benjamin, "how does the election look to you? Coolidge again?" "No! It looks to me like a dead beat between Laura Jean Libby. Valentino, and the editor
of the "True Story Magazine," I said despondently.
"What games are they playing these days? " inquired the talkative Ben.
"Well, let me see. " 1 said slowly, "there's Mah Jong, and football, and ukeleles. and cross
word puzzles, — and, oh, yes, a new one called Guess Again."
"That's a new one on me. too, " declared Benjamin. "Shoot."
"Well," I began, "it's this way. Years ago when you went calling, the girl took down the
family album and you spent a pleasurable evening looking over the pictures of funny old jjeople.
Nowadays we don't do that. We forget the ancestors — mainly because it keeps us jumping to
locate the members of the present generation. The other day I was talking to one of the wisre
sex, when a wild-eyed person dashed by on horseback. "Who is that reckless young man?" 1 asked her.
"That's my sister," she replied. "She has a boyish bob and is wearing knickers." "I suppose, according to those signs, " I answered sarcastically, "that the attractive young
person with the bobbed hair and the rouged lips whom I see yonder skipping rope is your little
brother?"
"Come out of the ark. Methuselem.*' she retorted, "that's Grandma."
"That sounds like a good game," said Benjamin, "if you ever guess right. "
"You're losing time, Ben," 1 answered. "Here, sit up on the window sill and show the world
a face that has never needed cosmetics. "

A Dinner Conversation
At a dinner recently I was seated next to a middle aged gentleman. I rather felt that we had not much in common and wished myself almost any other place. However, 1 was agreeably surprised when he started to talk about school. He said, "You know, the other day a man said to me, 'The schools are not what they used to be.' 1 agreed perfectly with his statement, but in case you misunderstand me, I'll add — Thank heaven they are not! When 1 went to school we had a small one-room building which was presided over by a tyrant on the style of Ichabod Crane. He had no more education than the eight grades, and could not apply what he knew. Every one hated the teacher and the school. 1 have observed recently that pupils in our schools love their work and have a deep respect for their teachers. How times. have changed! People can not tell me the world is growing worse, when we have boys and girls in the school systems who are learning to be good American citizens. They are our leaders of tomorrow. The world can not go wrong in their hands if our present improvements are kept up."
At this point I interrupted his thoughts by asking him to please pass the olives to Miss Spinster who was farther down the table. Not wishing to in- terrupt his philosophy, 1 hastened to ask, "What, Mr. - - - - do you think of industrial and home economic work in schools? "
"1 am heartly in favor of both, " he replied. "How can we expect children, especially those of the poorer class, to go out into the world to earn a livlihood, if we have taught them nothing worth while? 1 tell you, people are just beginning to realize what industrial work can mean to pupils. My town is working for a bond issue to better our system, and 1 intend to do everything in my power to make it a success."
I was very sorry when the dinner ended, because I knew 1 should not have another opportunity to talk with Mr. - - - - that evening. I felt him to be a powerful factor in a good cause.

Informal Composition
It is Spring! Not the real, tangible, satisfactory Spring, but rather a deli- cate hint to warn us of her coming. Already the snow has uncovered patches of brown earth, and the warm sun has opened the little streams again. Rejoicing at their freedom from winter's ice chains, they rush headlong on their way, singing a madcap song of glee and renewed passionate power. The air is quite soft and fresh, deliciously sweet and caressing, after the icy blasts of a week ago. The sky is a soft blue of a deep and tender quality — and the sun is warm — so warm that it is convincing. The hoarse call of the blue-jays seems full of hope and joy. Yes, — though next week it may be deep winter again, — today is it Spring.

Dressing in a Hurry
All of us who stay at Navarre know what it is to dress in a hurry now, if we never did before.
A Navarre Hall girl enjoys staying in bed until late while it lasts; but when she hears that ten-minute bell before breakfast, she springs out of bed quickly and begins a mad scramble for her clothes, some of which have a most annoying habit of hiding at inconvenient times. It is then that she wishes she had the will power to get up when the rising bell rang. Where did she put her clothes? Why can't she find them? She is sure that she left them on that chair last night, but where are they now? The poor all-enduring and long suffering room- mate is now the object of her suspicion.
"Jane, did you move any of my clothes? Dear me! Are you sure? What shall I do?"
About four minutes have flown. She scampers excitedly here and there, throwing this and that out of her way in her mad efforts to find what she has lost. Finally she gets an inspiration and throws the bed-clothes back. There before her are the lost articles! Now she remembers having cast them there the night before when the ten o'clock retiring bell had found her still fully dressed.
The next thing is to get into those clothes as quickly as possible. This she proceeds to do but oh! dear me! in her wild hurry her blouse is on inside out. that will never do! In changing it, she notices that her skirt is hooked crookedly. That must be altered, too, but just then the last breakfast bell rings. There is that poor girl with a blouse in her hands and skirt hooked wrong! She fran- tically shoves her blouse over her head, hoping that it will cover the hooks on her skirt.
With a final daub of powder and rake of the comb through her tousled hair, this typical dormitory girl runs down the stairs and enters the dining room among the last stragglers. She resolves then and there to get up when the rising bell rings hereafter, but the next day it is the same story over again.
Did you ever have to dress in a hurry to catch a train? I don't know which of the two evils rs the lesser — dressing hastily to catch a train or to get to the dining room at Navarre on time. Let us take the case of the busy housewife who is in the middle of spring cleaning when the telephone rings at twelve- thirty. When she answers it, she finds that it is her inconsiderate husband who notifies her that she must be ready and at the station by one-twenty. Then the thoughtless man takes advantage of distance and hangs up the receiver while she is still protesting that she cannot possible be ready in that short time. There is no other way out of it. She must be ready; she cannot stay there alone. The poor woman casts one despairing glance about the disordered living-room and runs to the garden where she finds Junior making mud pies, as usual. With difficulty, she drags him away and taking him into the house, prepares to get him ready. There is the usual fuss as she washes him and by the time he is dressed she has developed a bad case of nerves. Then she dressed herself. When she opens the wardrobe door, she feels like "Old Mother Hubbard" for rows of unoccupied hooks force themselves before her shocked vision. She has sent all her dresses to the cleaners except for a few old house dresses! She feels like giving up and sinking down on the floor but the hands of the little clock on the dresser point to one o'clock. She hastily tugs the best of these dresses over her head, and in her excitement, doesn't notice that it is torn down the side.
THE SEQUELLE
She digs under the bed for a pair of stockings and after a few minutes of frantic pawing, scrambles to her knees, grasping the coveted articles. Off go her shoes and stockings but, as she pulls the other pair of stockings on her ring catches in the silky one and lo! there is a long runner! An impolite exclamation escapse her lips as she laces up her shoes, for she has no time to mend that runner. Next she nastily daubs some powder over her face and as a result of not taking time to look in the mirror gets it on in streaks. Now for her hair! She begins to comb it but remembers that Junior was playing on the floor with her hairpins last evening. By the time she has gathered the few that she could find, she has no time to do more than just twist her hair in a tight little knot on the top of her head. On goes her hat and coat! Then the poor woman throws a few things into the suit-case that fortunately, was conveniently near, closed it and goes out, forgetting to lock the door. Let us leave her as she runs down the street with Junior's hand tightly clasped in hers. Let us hope that she caught the train.
Now for the last illustration of dressing in a hurry. The usually con- scientiously busy wife has determined to take an afternoon off and do nothing but read and rest. She gets comfortably settled on the sofa in the living-room and is peacefully reading when she hears a loud knocking on the door. She thinks that it is probably only a peddler and ignores it. As the knocking be- comes more insistent, she raised reluctantly, tiptoes to the window, and cautious- ly peeps through the curtains. Her face assumes an expression of dismay as she recognizes not a peddler, but her husband's mother whom she knows of old to be a crank about appearances. She calls softly to Sara to answer while she scampers upstairs to dress. Off she pulls her comfortable slippers and thrusts her unwilling feet into stiff dress shoes. Off comes her cool house dress and into her rustling silk she forces her unwilling arms. A hasty rub of the wash-cloth, a hurried daub of powder, a frantic sweep of the brush, and she descends to greet her unwelcome visitor.
This is what we mean by dressing in a hurry. This is the time when clothes mysteriously disappear and the peacefulness of minds one instant turns into chaos the next. But when you are in a hurry next, remember that:
"When all our clothes seem where they're not And stockings on the bum Remember with a cheerful grin
There's better times to come."

FURNITURE— THE LIFE TIME POSSESSION
Since good furniture is an expression of good taste and cultivation, and reflects your pride in the appearance of your home, your selection should not be made without thought of the future.
The time given to the choosing of furniture is well repaid because furniture is a Lifetime possession and surrounds you every day, creating a home environment which can prove a constant source of pride and satisfaction.
There is permanent value in sound quality, and permanent beauty in good design. Both are to be found in all of the furniture we sell.
