The Weekly Messenger Devoted to the Interests of the Student Body, Washington State Normal School VOL. XVIII. BELLINGHAM, WASH., SATURDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1<«18 NO. 12. ay joy abound with |jj|ac]i Normal Student and Teacher as he iJjounds out the year and approaches the I Mefflirring pleasures of uletide! hanges, most wonderful, have come to us; y j a r d tasks been encountered; UJich experiences have been enjoyed; ntense activity has swept us on; olemn obligations have been assumed; ruer ideals have been established, lulany problems remain unsolved, with the Kiirrival of the King's birthday, yet tormy War flees, and glad Peace appears! — G. W. Nash, President. MR. PHIL1PPI DESCRIBES THE SPIRIT OF NORMAL Mr. Philippi contributes to the Messenger the following article which he read at the faculty forum dinner, and which should be of interest to all readers: The Spirit and Ideals of the Normal School. In my opinion the normal school stands in a unique position of responsibility in our educational system. All educational institutions owe a direct responsibility to their students, but we are training the teachers of the citizens of tomorrow and thus the results of our work at the second removed from the institution become important to a degree hardly approached by any other type of institution. If this is a true statement of the position of the normal school, it seems to me that two absolutely indispensable qualities are (1) clear, broad, deep vision of the real educational needs of the citizen of tomorrow and (2) the desire and willingness to supply those needs — the spirit of service. The realization of this vision must be achieved in the spirit of democracy. Crowns, thrones and autocrats are losing their prestige faster, probably, than at any earlier period in the world's history. Their " slump " in the world's markets is going to continue until the quotation reaches 100 per cent below par or less. Whether their self-styled superiors and self-appointed rulers approve or not, the common mass of mankind, the world over, are resolved to assume their full share of political and industrial power. But the mere word (Continued on Page Two) A A A A A A A A A «j» A «$• A •$• *J* •£• • NOTICE * A * •:• At the special assembly • • called Thursday afternoon, Dr. • •:• Nash announced that the • • Christmas vacation would last *> • from December 20 to Decern- • <• ber 30, 1918.

The Normal School is asked to send teachers for the first two divisions of the work. A civics outline has been prepared by Professor McMahon of the University of Washington and a social economics outline by Professor Thomas of hte same institution. Teachers who go from this institution to assist in the work will remain for five days repeating their lectures four times daily throughout the week's stay. We shall probably be represented at times by some of the following teachers: Professors Bever, Bond, Kibbe, Klemme, Coughlin, Hunt, Herre, Philippi and Miller. It is pos-isble that the President may also assist for one week. A certain amount of time will be given by each instructor to personal and group con- (Continued on page 2.) FACULTY FORUM HOLDS INTERESTING MEETING The members of the faculty are following an interesting plan this year by dividing their meetings into two sections: once every month they meet to discuss those problems arising from the routine of school work, and every alternate two weeks, they meet to discuss questions of educational interest. The first of these latter meetings was held in the home economics department last Monday night, following a dinner served under the direction of Misses Longley and Clark of that department. The subject of the evening was "The Normal Idea — What Is It, and What May We Make of It? " Miss Montgomery spoke on the value of the forum as a means of free discussion, and stressed the idea of co-operation. Her speech was full of thuoght and stimulation. Mr. Philippi followed . on " The Spirit and Ideals of the Normal School," and brought forth a splendid vision of future selrvice along (Continued on page 2.) ASSISTANT LIBRARIAN OF NORMAL PASSES AWAY Miss Effie Sands, assistant librarian cf the B. S. N. S., passed away at Omaha, Neb., last Saturday. Miss Sands has been taking a leave of absence, and was spending the time with her brother, hoping for improved health. Her death is supposed to have arisen from complications in aa operation to which she submitted about a week before. The funeral was held at Lincoln, Neb., Monday, Dec. 16, 1918. Miss Sands was well known and much loved by her fellow workers and acquaintances at the Normal because of hey charming .personality and lovable Christian character. The news of her decease ibrings much sorrow to all her friends at Normal. MR. HOPPE ANNOUNCES COMMUNITY LECTORI Mr. Hoppe, manager of the community lyceum course, announces the following features in the community lecture course: E. J.
