Ross L. Finney, professor of Ed­ucational
Sociology of the University
of Minnesota, gave a series, of lec­tures
this week, on different phases
of applied sociology with relation to
the teaching . prof ession. This course
proved to be one of the most help­ful
as well'as one of the most pop­ular
which, has been offered at the
Normal. Many of the teachers dis­missed
their classes so that students
might be free to attend the lectures.
Mr. Finney also met with some class­es
during their regular periods.
Interesting Lecture At Assembly.
On Tuesday morning at the assem­bly
hour, Mr. Finney spoke to the
student body on "What's the Matter
With the Young Folks Nowadays?"
That nothing whatever is the matter
with the young folks today was his
opening statement, this thot leading
to the fact that the "Older young
folks" are in a great way responsible
for the pace taken by the younger;
that their advice' should be secure,
and their conclusons show good judg­ment.
Bo ok Has Been Published.
Professor Finney has. just finished
writing a book entitled a "Sociolog­ical
Philosophy of Education" and it
was on the., different chapters' of
this book that his lectures were based.
This volume will be of special value
to all interested in the teaching pro­fession.
Some of his other lectures were
entitled: , .......
"New Schools for a New Age." '
"Education as a means for Social
Guidance."
"The New Status of Women and the
Educator of Girls."
"The Social Function of Art and Art
Instruction."
"The Social Studies in the Curricu-
:.. ium."
"The Social Functions of History
"Teaching."
"The Social Psehology of Moral Ed­ucation."
"The Professional Education of Ed­ucators."
"The Major Value of Life." '
: The men's coaching classes now in
full swing,.are holding a keen inter­est
for allr future, football, basketball,
track and! baseball coaches who are
taking part in them. ., '
In these classes, much time is ne­cessarily
spent on theory, but/in ad
ditipn the theory is put into prac
tice^and athletic contests are held
among groups of the men entered
in" the different classes. "•'•,.
. The future masters of sportdom
enrolled now as students are rapidly
learning what men must know to be
coaches of athletics, and thus are
greatly interested in both tile theor­ies
and rear applications wtfich take
place. •
In the football class, which, has a
large enrollment, actual scrimmage is
not engaged in, but tackling, block­ing
and all the fine points of the
game are demonstrated and then en­gaged
in by the students. The future
hoof coaches are spendin g much time
in scrimmage^ passing, shooting, of­fense
and defense, and are 'being well
prepared for future work. While in
the baseball and track classes, theo­ry
alone is presented because of a
lack of sufficient enrollment,, yet
still immense good is gained through
the inside knowledge .gained. The
coaching classes, comparatively new
organizations in B. S. N. S., are pref
senting material not gained in many
other schools of our type, and are
making their work a most worth­while
thing to all concerned.

BLACK TULIPS WILL
BE DISPLAYED HERE
Queen Elizabeth to Bring Five
Black Tulip Bulbs to Show
at Piggly Wiggly Store.
When Queen Elizabeth McjKean,
fair ruler of Tulipland, returns from
a European tour she will bring with
her five dead black bulbs which are
to become the property of the Bel-lingham
Tulip Festival association.
These unique bulbs—the only ones in
the 'world—are the gift of Arthur H.
Jones,, owner of a large chain of
Piggly-Wiggly stores in Washington.
I t is said that many years ago an
European king offered a standing re­ward
of $2,000 to anyone who pro­duced
a dead black tulip. ' For many
years tulip gr'ower§ attempted to
evolve a black bulb but their efforts
were in vain.
Huran for the Fourth! , Such
time means vacation; week-end trips,
picnics, and firecrackers to most
'pebjue. But what about the day's
brigin^-itis deeper meaning? How
'many stop to think of that?
Well, way back in 1776, before
anyone thought of week-end fishing
or mountain trips on the fourth day
of July, the faithful and persevering
people of this country, then in its
infancy, felt that the oppression and
tyranny of the King of England was
too much to bear. They also felt that
this was a nation strong enough to
govern itself. (That same feeling has
since proved to be correct, too).
On the second day of July, 1776,
the representatives of the embryo
states met'and by a vote of twelve
Congress adopted the resolution of
independence: At this time 10 states
voted unanimously while Pennsyl­vania
and Delaware cast divided balr
lots and New York did not vote at
al. . ,
Thomas Jefferson immediately
began constructing the declaration,
which was presented and adopted on
July 4. New York, however, did not
accept; it until five days later. It
was .announced to Congress on the
loth and did not become unamipus
until it was signed and engrossed on
the 19th of July, 1776.
••: So with this year's celebration is
the 150th anniversary of the birth of
this great country observed. •
Last Sunday members of-the Mt.
Baker Club, led by Judge Brown and
assistants, climbed one of the peaks
of Mt., Baldy. '
fieaving Bellingham at 7:00 p. m.,
Saturday the party, including seven
or eight faculty members and two or
three Normal students, motored to
Glacier where they camped for the
night in the auto park.
The trip on Saturday included' a
hike of six miles, by blazed trail
through the wonderful forest. Beau­tiful
flowers and foliage were found
and the ascent by Boulder Creek was
enjoyed immensely. .
Along with ; the • Friday Harbor
BibTogicai. school the Normal will
sponsor a school of geography in the
Mt: Baker region. ' T h e students in
the Geography class are required to
sp"ehd a week. there beginning this
Saturday. ,
: Robert E. Landbn, whb is boftduct-in^
the course*,' "\vill be there for a
period of fiye weeks. Any student
wtib wishes should register for • the
course, as early as possible since only
seventy-five can be accommodated. "
The course is planned to give the
student taking it an intimate' know­ledge
of the physiography and geogra­phy
of a^ small section.in the Mt. Bak­er
region. ' I t is not intended as
merely an outing for the students
taking the work.
The work is open to any student
of the school but a "maximum of
seventy five may be enrolled.
Each student in the course will'be
required to spend a week in . the
Baker region.
The cost of the work will be about
ten dollars, including transportation,
board,, and lodging for the week.
Students boarding at Edehs Hall
will riot be required to 'pay board at
the Hall for that period.
Students taking the work will re­ceive
credit. In sorite courses such
as Geography, Nature Study, etc., the
work may take the place of a part of
the regular work in these subjects.
In other cases it may be used .to in­crease
the total amount of credit for
the quarter by one hour.
Mr. Landbn, who will conduct the
classes, will be available for about
five weeks beginning about July 8th
arid ending August 13th. It is de?
sired that five parties of. approxi­mately
fifteen may be organized.
Students ' desiring to take the
course will consult with Miss.Cum­mins
arid .program in the usual way.
