The Weekly Messenger Devoted to the Interests of the Student Bodv, Washing-ton State Normal School VOL. XXT BELLINGHAM, WASHINTON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1921 NO. 7 NOVEMBER November skies are dull and gray Sobre as dying lame— But bright on yonder wooded hill The fire ofAui um n ila me. —A. B. Y Y T DETAILS OF CAMPAIGN OUTLINED BY COMMITTEE Certain devices and machinery are needed in the carrying out of any campaign. The committee in charge of "Better English Week" has this in mind when it gives ns the following instructions for the use of tags. Next Monday, in assembly, each student will receive a blue and white tag bearing the words: "I use good English." This he is to wear until someone detects him in an error of speech. The student observing the error will take the tag of the one making the error and write upon it the following: 1. The error. 2. The correct form. 3. His own name. This being done, he will place the tag in a box on the door of the President's office. This will furnish material at the end of the week for the compilation of statistics upon the campaign. If a student is not detected in an error during the whole week, he will wear his tag to the Friday assembly, where some-recognition will be made of the fact. Students unable to be present at the assembly at which the tags are given out will secure them by special arrange- (Continued on Page Eight)- CITY OF BELLINGHAM DAVENPORT EXPRESSES OPINION IN HOME PAPER Cordial appreciation of Bellingham, of Bellingham Normal, and of Doctor G. W. Nash, pervades an article by Mr. N. C. Davenport, on the W. E. A. convention, published in the Seattle P.-L, of Sunday last. "We nominate Dr. George Welcome Nash, of the Bellingham State Normal, to be the genius of hospitality. His persuasive smile, his warm and generous hand clasp, his cordial words of welcome simply engulfed one in a sea of welcome," said Mr. Davenport. "Three cheers for Dr. Nash and his Normal, which turns out so many splendid teachers." Mr. Davenport expresses the universal feeling that this convention of the W. E. A. has been the greatest of the thirty five which have been held in this state. He feels that a new spirit is abroad in education—a spirit which is broadening the scope of our vision, making us dare to place our ideals with those of other callings • and to fight for them. World order, good citizenship, friendship between nations, is our business. The hope and purpose of. the W. E. FACULTY'S OPINION OF "GOOD WEEK" AI MEMBERS GIVE BOOST TO COMMITTEE'S WORK President G. W. Nash—.Better Speech Week and the preliminaries leading up to it as inaugurated and carried on by the students and the English Department is bound to be productive of much good during the particular week in question and thruout the year. This campaign for better English ought to develop an alertness on the part of students and teachers that will result in more accurate speech and it should also give to all of us a larger and richer vocabulary. I commend the movement as one calculated to do the institution great good. Earhart—I believe in making every week Better Speech Week. Klemme—I think that Better Speech Week is a splendid idea. Wie need it. Carelessness is the sin of the American people. Other nations aren't as careless as we are in our speech. Our language is a "slanguage." So why not the whole year instead of just one week. Watrous—"Good English Week" is a movement which should be met with the keenest interest, not only for its educational value but also for the sport and "get together spirit" which will ensue L ELEVEN MEETS U. OF W. BOTH TEAMS HAVE STRING OF VICTORIES This afternoon at 3:15 the unbeaten Normal team will mix with the "Wonder Eleven" of the Freshman class of the University of Washington. The "Frosh" have played many games this year and so far have left behind them only beaten teams. This may be a case of an ir-resistable force meeting an immovable body. At any rate we hope so. The Freshmen have an unusually strong team. Most of last year's Everett team is playing on it. We, too, have a good team, and the game will be one of the biggest events of the year in Bellingham. Classes will be dismissed regularly, but students can get to the field in plenty of time to see the game. We want a good representation of students at the game. Last Saturday the Normal showed her teeth against the hopefuls of the College of Puget Sound of Tacoma. Altho the field was a pig pen of mud, the game was filled with thrills, a new one every minute. Macpherson was the outstanding figure for the Normal, with "Hag" Gaasland a close second. The C. P. 6. boasted a hero when he ran seventy yards for a touchdown directly from a kickoff. Macpherson's thirty-five yard place kick was especially thrilling considering the conditon of the field and the ball. At the start of the game Tacoma elected to receive and for a time it seemed as tho the Normal was to be whitewashed. But soon the Normal got the ball and soon after the beginning of the second quarter Macpherson pushed the ball across for the first (Continued on Page Seven) (Continued on Page Five) (Continued on Page Eight) (Mnrtmr FRIDAY—Nov. 4. 7:30, Senior Mixer.
