The Weekly Messenger VOL. XVII. Devoted to the Interests of the Student Body, Washington State Normal School BELLINGHAM, WASH., SATURDAY, JUNE 29, 1918 NO. 36 GALENDAR MONDAY, JULY 1— 9:40—Rev. Wm. R. Marshall. TUESDAY, JULY 2— 9:40—Mr. J. T. Newbill, Washington, D. C; in charge of Boys' and Girls' Club Work. 10:30—Choral Club. 10:30—Rural Life. WEDNESDAY, JULY 3— 9:40—Mr. J. T. Newbill. 4:10—Y. W. C. A. THURSDAY, JULY 4— Vacation. FRIDAY, JULY 5— Vacation. VISIT OF SCHOOL Last Friday, the Normal School was extremely fortunate in having as visitors pur State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Mrs. Josephine Corliss Preston, and her deputy, Mrs. Addie E. Dickinson. They •came, at the invitation of Dr. Nash, to explain to us some of the details of the new certification law and to urge us not to begin teaching until we are fully prepared. After assembly Mrs. Dickinson received those who had individual problems, in Dr. Nash's office. It was after lunch time before Mrs. Dickinson was able to get away. Mrs. Preston and Mrs. Dickinson were much surprised to find here at Normal several very dear friends, and these friends, were delighted to have the opportunity of a little visit. Zel-ma and Lenore Roach, Martha Baldwin, Mrs. Nellie A. Pugh and M. F. Pugh are the Normal School members of Mrs. Preston's and Mrs. Dickinson's "family." Although our visitors were not able to be with us very long, we are certainly glad to have had them as long as we did, and to have heard the message they brought. Through the Messenger the school expresses the hope that Mrs. Preston and Mrs. Dickinson may visit us again before long. MR. THOMPSON TALKS ON THRIFT STAMPS On Friday, Mr. Howard Thompson, representing the county in the War Savings Stamp campaign urged the necessity of everyone pledging themselves to save and purchase as many War Savings Stamps as possible. The government brought this campaign to a close June 28th in order to determine how much revenue must now be raised from other sources. We are very glad to hear from Dr. Nash, in this letter just received: Prosser, June 26, 1918. Dear Ones at Home: We have been absent from Belling-ham only three days, but railway train and trusty auto have transported us far from the home base. We had expected to spend our first night on' of Seattle at Ellensburg, but were so late in starting that we stopped rather at Cle Elum. On the way we enjoyed greatly the ride over smooth pavement from the heart of Seattle, through Bothell to Redmond. Before entering the famed Snoqualmie Pass, we gazed in wonder and admiration for a time at Snoqualmie Falls. A plunge of 250 feet breaks the water into marvelous banks of spray, and the rising mist dampens your face as you look. Twin Falls, crashing down between narrow walls of rock, also commanded our attention. I cannot take time to describe the wonders of our journey and shall speak merely of a few personal experiences along the way. At Cle Elum it was my pleasure to meet R. Ernest Tucker, the efficient Normal son, who is serving as manual training teacher in the schools of Snohomish. Mr. Tucker is "doing his bit" for his country this summer but will be back in Bellingham to finish, next summer. You know the make-up of our party—Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Swift and Mrs. Nash are the other three of the quartet. We are traveling in the Swifts' Dodge car and are taking turns at the wheel. Yesterday morning we stopped for a brief word with President Black at Ellensburg; later we dined at the beautiful Commercial Hotel, Yakima; and still later visited friends in Sawyer, Mabton and Grandview. At Sawyer we met a charming young lady who informed us that she would enroll in the Normal at Bellingham in September, while at Grandview the editor of the Herald proved to be a dear friend of boyhood days. All along the Yakima valley we beheld fruit trees laden with fruit— cherries, luscious and abundant. We are about to start for Kenne-wick, Walla Walla and Dayton. In Dayton we hope to salute our good friends, the Dumas family. I must now don my duster and "take to the road," Very best wishes to all Normalites. Sincerely yours, G. W. NASH. Dr. Nash, has received a card, announcing the safe arrival overseas of Ben W. Tidball, who was in training at Camp Jackson. Y STATES It is interesting to note in the growth of the Normal School how far our fame reaches over the country. This Summer School includes in its attendance teachers of experience from as far east as Washington, D. C, as far north as Alaska, and as far south as California. In this weeks' Messenger is a list of students who have taught in the states outside of Washington. Watch in the following number for your friends of this state listed by counties and cities. Montana—Bayha, Jessie; Kolb en-son, Margaret; Meyer, Amy E.; Meyer, Frieda C; Satre, Alice E.; Val-lean, Verna; Williams, Eda. Michigan—Gordon, Mrs. Jennie M.; Ralph, Ethel. Alaska—Packer, Ray. North Dakota—Strand, Matilda. Iowa—Van Eaton, Bessie. Wisconsin—Court, Thelma M. Kansas—Craig, Ruth. Arkansas—Deeg, Mrs. Leona; Bon-ham, Eunice. Minnesota — Keefe, Myrtle N.; Wright, Jennie D. Oklahoma—McClellan, Ethel S. Canada—Winters, Mrs. Ida F. * Washington, D. C.—Baldwin, Martha K. Oregon—Campbell, Eula; Coryell, Ruth; Forrest, Dorothea; Lyon, Gertrude; Everett, Estelle M.; McDonald, Mrs. Jessie F.; Allen, Bertha C; Converse, Mrs. J.; Sawyers, Denabell; Clark, Helen K.; Anderson, Ida O.; Hoon, Bertha; Keeney, Irma; Mann, Isabelle T.; Nowell, Leila; Pugh, Nellie A.; Rice, Opal; Senska, Lela; Simpson, Gladys; Wagner, Inez M.; Wagner, Leota; Anderson, Margaret; Denny, Roxie; Dunham, Bessie M.; Pugh, M. F. Idaho—Chambers, Harriet; Nisbet, Maggie J.; Oxford, Dorothy; Smith-am, Esther. California—Shane, Mrs. Ethel H.; Robertson, Helen; Peery, Lydia R. Missouri—Stanley, Louie. Pennsylvania—Cynthia, Mrs. Thomas. South Dakota—Mosher, Mrs. Emerson M. West Virgina—Nutter, J. A. CARD OF THANKS Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Bond and family take this means of expressing their thanks for the expressions of kindness extended them by the students and faculty of the Normal School during' the: past two weeks. Get the thrift-habit through buying War Savings Stamps and help provide the sinews of war winning. TO Chautauqua, which will open in Bellingham on July 6 and continue for seven days, will bring us a program of entertainment which should not be missed. To open we will have the Old Soldier Fiddlers under the personal direction of Col. A. Pattee, two of the Old Boys in blue and two in gray. They have a wonderful program of war time, camp fire stories and songs —a program that makes the blood tingle. Music on the second day is built around Fenwick Newell, the splendid American tenor. Mr. Newell is supported by a capable company land will, we believe, give one of the most thoroughly satisfactory programs of the entire week. On the third night we will have a splendid departure, in a company of talented players in several one-act plays; short dramas from the pens of the greatest dramatists of our allies. This evening is in itself a liberal education. At the very last moment this spring the Ellison-White Co. was able to se- Continued on page eight LIBRARY HAS BOOKS ON MANY SUBJECTS Is History your delight? Art? Literature? Or Science? The Normal library has some excellent material on the history of the northwest from earliest times to the present day. This matter is authentic and valuable as it contains many early books and journals in the original— some of them being over two hundred years old. Of course this material is kept in a locked case. The art section has many beautifully illustrated books which show the development of art and the influence of the different countries upon it. The plates and reproductions of masterpieces in these books are especially good. This class number is 750. Special attention has been paid also to literature. It has a splendid array of books on the historical development of literature; also a good representation of the different forms, such: as: Drama, poetry, essays, and fiction. The modern drama is especially strong, also present-day poetry. The Bellingham Normal has always been proud of the number of up-to-date, formal, scientific books in its library, and now this year there has been added a great many new practical books on birds, insects, trees, nature study, landscape and veget-table gardening, and agriculture.
