The Weekly Messenger Devoted to the Interests of the Student Body, Washington State Normal School VOL. XVIII. BELLINGHAM, WASH., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, li'18 NO. 3-4-5-6-7-8 J Announcements I At the first meeting of the senior class, called by Mr. Bever on Wednesday, <the following temporary officers were elected for this quarter: Helen Schwartze, president; Florence Town-send, vice-president; Leo Brener, secretary; Tillie Gish, treasurer. NOTICE Those who signed up for Sisters' League. There will be a meeting next Monday night at 7 o'clock, in the sewing room at the. Normal, to organize and plan the work. Everyone who signed up as interested, please be present. (Signed) May Mead. NOTICE In order to get the club reports and house reports, it is requested that all clubs and houses appoint reporters if they have not done so already. O l NASH CONCLUDES WAR W M M P A I GN In addition to his duties as head of the Normal School and various local and patriotic activities, our president has served as the general director for Whatcom County in the campaign for funds for the United War Workers' camipaign. The allotted quota was passed by about $10,000, which speaks for the success of Dr. Nash's leadership. Bellingham subscribed more than $46,000 and the country dis tricts more than $21,000. At the close of the drive Dr. Nash expressed the following words of appreciation to a local paper: "The united war work campaign is drawing to a successful close. In spite of many obstacles which have arisen, the drive has gone forward without interruption. City and county have gone 'over the top' by comfortable margins. "I am deeply grateful to the city, county and district managers, to all members of the executive committee, to the various publicity agencies and the noble company of men and women who have served on teams or as solicitors during the campaign. I wish heartily to thank, all contributors, from the representatives of big business to the humblest workers, for their support of the seven humanitarian organizations. "May the accomplishments of the drive result, as we expect, in returning to us from the battlefield and military camp the finest body of men the world possesses." NORMAL'S HONOR ROLL IN THE GREAI WAR Now that the war has ended we are proud to know that the Bellingham State Normal was so well represented in the great world struggle for humanity. In the following list, a number are oversees, while many have been waiting in cantonments throughout the United States for their call to France. We can hope that before many weeks some of the men making up our Honor Roll rmay be with us again. Following is the list represented on our service flag. Some few whom we know are serving in France are listed here: Forrest Beck Russell Boyd Earl Bennett Smith Carleton Fred Gemmell D. H. Johnston Kenneth Lewis Dr. Mathes Walter Powell Roy Powell Ora Sitton Paul Thompson Ward Whitfield Others completing this list who were last heard of while in the United States may now be serving in France: Francis Astels Clare Altman Edward Altman Wayne Altman Victor Aitken Leonard Anstett , Henry Ashman Martin Baker C.

Cray Carlyle Crum Edward Come George Connell John Davenport (Continued on Page Two) NORMAL RAISES $2,097 IN WARFARE CAMPAIGN Read the following figures and see if they don't make you feel glad to be a member of a student body that came forward so splendidly, glad, too, that you were one of those who gave up that "something" that you wanted, in order that you might sign a pledge! $896.25 from 267 pledges signed by students, $40.00 from the Y. W. C. A., $323.00 from the student association, making a total of $1259.25 from the pledges of the students. $800.00 came from sixty members of the faculty and employes of the school. Some of our students subscribed elsewhere to the amount of $38.50, making a grand total of $2,097.75 to be credited to Bellingham State Normal School. Dr. Miller is very much gratified at the way the pledges have been coming in and says:' "I would like to express my appreciation to the students and faculty for the generous response to the United War Work Campaign. It has involved comparatively little work for me. Most of the contributions have come iii response to letters and the platform appeal. In view of the fact that school has been disorganized by the dismissal of the students for six weeks, the size of the contributions is surprisingly large. While we have not raised the total amount asked for by the student division, I feel that in view of the decreased size of the faculty and the smaller school attendance this year, our contribution is at least fifty per cent relatively greater than that of one year ago. Many expressions of good will have accompanied the pledges of students and teachers. I wish that I might reply to them all personally but I hope that they will accept this expression Gf appreciation through the columns of the Messenger." The allied war work camipaign should hold a peculiar interest for every college and university student, for it is of men—and women—of student age that our modern day heroes are made. There is no mystery connected with the prominent part youth played in this war of wars. It was a war of sharp wits and quick action—the qualities of youth—rather than of brawn and brute strength. Not a student but would have been serving with those heroes and heroines if they had only their own immediate interests to consider. But it is not elected that all shall serve at the front. There is also a future day for which to prepare. But even those who remain behind (Continued on Page Two) Choral Club, every Tuesday at 1:00, room 228. Y. W. C. A., every Thursday at 2:00, in Y. W.

STUDENTS MOURN LOSS OF ANpARRISON As school reopens this fall after the epidemic of influenza, we miss from our number one whom we were " just, learning to know and to love, Anne Harrison. The news that she had succumbed to the influenza was a painful surprise to her many friends at Normal. The funeral was held at East Sound, Tuesday afternoon, October 15th. Rev. J. M. Canse officiated and Dr. Nash spoke a few words of comfort and appreciation. Anne Ruth Harrison was born November 29, 1900, at Talgarth Farm,- Spring Water, Washura County, Wis., and died October 13, 1918, at 610 Cedar street, Bellingham, Wash., the older daughter of Benj. E. Harrison and Mary E. Jones Harrison. Her brother, Thomas S. Harrison, and sister, Zoa, are still living. Dolly, her baby name, the one used by all who knew her before her school days, still clung to her. She was an industrious, capable, generous and (Continued on Page Two) ••• •% •*• •£• •*• •£• *J* «£• •£• ••*•• •§• *$• •£* •$• •$* «$• •:• NOTICE TO JUNIORS • • Eng.
