Some eyes are glad for hill and sky, And some for maple leaves; Still others for the clouds that fly Close under heaven's eaves; And some for winter wind that grieves. / There is a joy at sparkling morn, Another at white noon; Calm, radiant dreams at dusk are born; And with the pallid moon Come silver fancies—dead too soon. Each day is revelry to Youth, And work to Middle Age; It is another bit of truth To poet and to sage—• To God it is another page. And so I cannot sing your song, I can but sing my own; And all our songs shall die ere long, Like birds that once have flown— Like poor, dim-stars -that once have shone. Friday morning the faculty vacated their seats of honor on the auditorium stage in favor of the class of '18, who proceeded to show the assembled audience just what sort of "show" they could give. Elwood Davis, hitherto unknown to the students as a singer, rendered two solos in a decidedly pleasing manner. The curtain next rose on a schoolroom scene, depicting a class of well-known Seniors under the tutelage of Master Will Beardslee. These pupils-most cleverly demonstrated to the helpless victims and their classmates what it is to see "ourselves as ithers see us." Mrs. Merriman, always heartily welcomed by the Normal students, sang with unusual charm and beauty, A lively debate on the question, "Resolved, that the Juniors are worth more to the institution in every phase of the work than the Seniors," was staged by six of the Juniors, thrive on each side. Considerable eloquence and a great amount of keen logic were displayed in the course of the debate. At the close a standing vote on the winners was taken. To say that this was a hoax on the Seniors, is to put it lightly. As a finishing touch to an excellent performance, the Junior class as a whole joined in making the auditorium resound with 1918 yells. The Seniors are put on their mettle by this lively demonstration and it remains to be seen whether they, on January 5, can excel it. PROF. J. WERNER HOPPE COMES TO THE NORMAL Probably the most appreciated number on the lecture course this year was "Paid in Full," as given last Thursday evening by Prof. J. Werner Hoppe of the Cheney Normal School. Prof. Hoppe is a brother of Prof. Victor Hoppe of Bellingham Normal and is a dramatic reader of unusual skill and ability. The impersonations of the characters of the play, "Paid in Full," were most vivid and the attention of the' audience did not waver from start to finish. The idea of the play was such as Americans in general appreciate, and portrays in particular the depths of misery to which a weak character may drag a man and those closest to him. "Paid in Full," tho portraying sordid deeds and-motivesj contains a message beneficial to those witnessing it.
