In Assembly Wednesday, Dr. Miller -told the'students'about-bisftrip to Everett .one day last week.. Dr. Miller went as one. of the speakers at an Institute held there. './.'"' While in 'Everett Dr.r Miller took occasion ;-Jfc'o visit the 'Normal Students who are doing • cadet work? in ?that • city: He especialy commended their alertness; and-the:good work our cadets are doing and showing, and he also mentioned the very, efficient --school system of Everett. At the asnie assembly Dr. Nash re-some very good lectures. One lecture, given by Prof.-Roberts of Chicago, was especially interesting and practical. Prof, Roberts^ said that only ten percent ;;:; j ^ i l l the new club, and; organization reporters please put their names in t^£: Messenger; box. a t ' pnce;rso that tjjlj r§adjustnierit can be made in the were professionally trained, whereas forty percent of the teachers in Chile had profesional traininng. Dr. Roberts declared ,that there was .a new day coming, for -teacherSj where there would be a reduction of competition with" untrained teachers,. and the 'trained teachers' salary would rise accordingly. "\ At the same tsembly. Dr. Nash remarked upon the editorial published in last week's Messenger, on school spirit. He said that students ought fco take time to show their... devotion: .to., .their school. There are many >ways in which we can do this—by turning out for athletics, inter-class debates^-and-.the like. Dr. Nasfr says that it would be well to have student rallies,-in which to have our school sOngs; and yells, and he appointed Mr. Ernest: Kbbelt to take charge of these affairs, and see that they arg; put - through.' Let .•• us > all rally to Mr. Kobelt?s" support, and, now that .the flu scared is over, andthe war is won, let us show a little of that necessary product known to all good students everywhere as School Spirit. I •-'Mr; Coughlin told t h e students about the Achievement Club rally he attended at "Van Wyck a short time ago. He-said' that the-whole rally was a fine example - of county spirit • and cooperation. About two hundred-boys and girls participated in this rally. These children have alll been engaged in some sort of farm activities, such as raising pigs, chickens arid gardens. For this, they were "awarded the Boys' and Girls' Achievement Club pin. On Arbor Day they gave a fine demonstration of community arid school spirit, by planting tres and flowers, and clear* irig up ia wood lot in their vicinity. Great spirit was shown • throughput the " r a l ly in their club' arid school songs and yells, * arid the -good 4 will with which all was given; ' ^; ": - Dr. H. H. Powers, of Newton, Mass., will lecture a t the Normal the week of. April 13th. He will be remembered by many who. heard, him lecture last, year on the .war. .This year. he. will lecture on " The. Pfohleins of! t he Peace Conference" dealing in punishment and reparation, ^hiow far can, ^Germany repair the wrong she has done; natural resources, the economic basis of nationhood; the new nations, self determination and self-riDainteriance; the new wards, world trusts and world trustees, the guarantees, the league of nations and its sponsors'. Among other problems which-he will discuss in this connection will be France and Germany, Germany and Russia, the Hapsburg States, the Balkans arid the Adriatic, the Far East. ' ; His other series of lectures will be on the league of nations, discussing the Paris compact, the organization ofJ theLV^ omissions and its difficulties and dangers; the league as administrator, the German colonies, the Turkish territories, the international trade routes, the; league as arbitrator, quarrels and their settlement, the pledge of delay on investigation, the league as enforcer, the league and its backers, helpful and non-helpful members, who are the really responsible parties in the league. ; It is expected that Dr. Powers' lectures will be well attended and of interest to^ all. As members pf the faculty wiU generally concede, this forum dinner held on Tuesday of this week was the most elaborate and interesting one of the year. . Credit for this success belongs! chiefly to the members of the conl-; mittee on organizations, Miss Ederis, Miss Charlton, Mr. Hunt arid Mr. Hughes. The guest of honor and chief speaker was our Dr. Nash. With that earnestness-arid humor that we: know so well, Dr Nash recounted Ms experiences of the recent trip r to the East. He spoke of experiences, social and . professional, of 'wonderful theatrical performances^ and-speeches,- of interesting personalities that he h id met. After this talk,; a "short1 period^ <*£ discussion was engaged' -in >by Ethe; faculty. Another enjoyable^ part "of! the program was music ^ by John Roy Williams, violinist/ who is 'well -known a t Normal,.-. :X'".' .." .••-'.;•'•.;•-. ."'. -^,.'.;':'- Abpve all, however, the meeting was a dinner! This part of the program was served iby the domestic science department in the cafeteria. It proved welcome to all, and did: i ts part to make the forum most successful. MR. HOPPE IS KEPT Last Wednesday night Mr. Hoppe read the popular play " The Fortune Hunter" at the meeting of the parent- teachers at Marietta. ' Tonight he reads " The Man. From Home" as a regular number of the school lyceum course at Birch Bay. During the month of April Mr. Hoppe will be kept busy . giving his excellent entertainments.
