The Drama Club-has chosen "Adam and Eva," a three-act comedy, for its next production, which wll be presented in the" auditorium, sometime this quarter. This play, written by Guy Bolton and George Middleton, reveals the troubles of a rich man and his grasping family. As the plot develops, Mr. King goes to South America and leaves Adam Smith, one of his employees, in charge of the household management. Rare comedy ensues as the substitute father, Adam, falls in love with Eva, King's youngest daughter, and wins her after a competition with Sir Andrew Gordon, her intended fiancee'. A hearty interest in dramatic work was shown by those who took part in yesterday's try out. Cupid will make ! a personal visi to this school on Friday. A valentine box, situated on the main landing, will receive all valentines from youthful swains to their admired sweeties. This should enable all timid young men and women to bestow some token of their esteem upon the unsuspecting recipients of their adoration. All valentines.. snould be put into the box not later; than four o'clock, Thursday, February 11. The distribution will take place during recreation hour, in the big gymnasium at four o'clock, Friday afternoon, February 12. This is no club affair, but every student in school is invited to contribute to the fun. M M BE GIVEN T O M d ! Women's League Plan Dance for Outside Girls to Be Held in Dormitory Dance Booms. JOINT RECITAL TO BE MUSICAL TREAT Misha Gegna, Russian 'Cellist, and Susie Michael, Pianist, Offer Variety of Numbers. Susie Michael, pianist, and Misha Gegna, eminent Russian cellist, will appear in joint recital on February 13th, in the auditorium of the Bellingham State Normal School. Susie Michael is a young American artist who has had the advantage of study with great European masters, her last being the distinguished Polish composer-pianist, Sigismond Stojow-ski, now of New York. Miss Michael will play a group of Mr. Stojow-ski's compositions at her appearance here. Misha Gegna came to the United States in 1914, heralded b y European critics as one of the most remarkable of the younger Russian musical geniuses. Both blood and environment have given him a most advantageous musical start. He was born in Kieff, the son of Mayer Gegna, a concert violinist and symphony conductor of note. Graduating - from the Petro-grad and Leipzig Conservatories, Mi-_ sha Gegna has been heard as soloist with orchestras both abroad and in this country. He has been connected with the Petrograd and Leipzig Philharmonic, and the San Francisco Symphony and other orchestras.- Since coming to the United States, Mr. Gegna has toured with Caruso, Tetrazzini, Mary Garden, Titta Ruf-fo and other famous artists. The Women's League will give its annual informal for girls outside of the dormitory tomorrow, Saturday, evening at Edens Hall, starting at 8:30. The committe chairmen are: Eleanor Dodson, general chairman; Florian Culver, music; Alice Herm-sen, programs; Neva Rupple, refreshments ;v and Esther Fisher, decorations. Patrons and patronesses for the affair are President and Mrs. • Fisher, Mi', and Mrs. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Victor Roth, Miss Jones, Miss Lambert, Mr. Arntzen and Mr. iKolstad. The Valentine theme for decorations will be used, with a specially prepared booth for the punch, which two girls from Edens Hall will serve. Francis Wilcox's orchestra will provide music for the sixteen dances scheduled. The programs, which were given out Thursday, are heart-shaped and contain the names of the patrons and patronesses and those on the committee in charge, as well as the list of dances.

In a series of meetings held this week under the auspices of the Appointment Bureau, groups of graduating students have been enrolling with the Bureau and learning how to co-operate with the office in getting positions. Besides outlining the method by which the Bureau endeavors to l>laee students, Miss Jenner gave the following suggestions to he considered in making applications for any position. "Before doing so, the student does well to consider the situation and her own adaptability to it. Such matters as the demands of a highly supervised or an isolated, school; the type of community and one's understanding of its situations; must all be thought of. The application itself should be clearly and concisely worded, and ought to give information regarding the applicant's education, the curriculum followed, teaching experience, special subjects, age, health, and references. Copies of recommendations have been found to be of little value. A good photo is desirable. Students inexperienced in making applications may - obtain assistance at the Appointment^ Office. With the assistance of Mr. Fowler, a pamphlet is being prepared which gives information concerning applications. It is essential that students keep in touch with the office if the best results are to be obtained. Changes of address or acceptance of any position should be reported immediately, in order that records may be accurately kept. The bulletin boards should be watched for notices which will appear from time to time." -o ASSEMBLY PLEASED BY WILLIAMS TRIO The Williams Trio gave a delightful musical program Tuesday morning at the regular assembly.

According to the present plan, slight changes will be made in the departments. More space will be devoted to drama, the W. A..A., and music than in former years. The calendar for the year is being combined with the recreation department in order to provide a more interesting account of the various social functions. More space will be devoted to the joke section than was given in last year's Klipsun. Most of the members of the Sophomore class have made appointments with the phohographer for their individual pictures. The club pictures will be taken next week. Miss Le Master reports that more snapshots are needed. All students having any clever original snaps are urged to leave them in the- Klipsun office in the Art room.

Miss Frank'presented the initiates with their certificates of memberhip at the initiation party ,and then they adjourned to the cafeteria dining room where ice cream and cake were served.

The first stanza was decidedly "Frosh".

It was a different story from then on. The Northern cagera ran wild and tossed baskets from every angle. The c,ount was about evened up when the time keeper, shouted, "Three minutes to go." v Five sons of the Blue and White made a final rally. One rangy son,' Rhodes by name, cut loose and led his teammates to a well earned victory that disgraced a, chesty "yearling" mob playing on its home floor. A squad of happy hoopsters is now resting until this evening when another mark will be. sought for the win column in the Seattle College game. Coach Sam Carver and his fast stepping aggregation of basket ringers left yesterday morning on their first trip of the season. The schedule-calls for games with the University of Washington Freshmen, Seattle College, and St. Martin's. The "U" yearlings are fast and play a furious and clever game as has been shown by their previous games this year. Their slate is clean with victories over St. Martin's and the 'U. of Oregon frosh. Seattle College Strong. Seattle College has made an enviable record so far this season. Comparative scores show that St. Martin's suffered as great a defeat from the Queen City squad as it did a t the hands of the locals. The last tilt of the journey will be at Lacey, against the ill-fated Irishmen. Advance dope has it that this game should be a walkaway for the locals, who have one win to their credit against this team already. Assistant Coach Keeney is accompanying Carver and the squad composed of O'Dell, Rhodes, Reed, Tid-ball, Keplinger, Benson, Stickney, Hoggatt and Eawkirigs. o — ••'•'"•' JULIA ARTHUR HAS LEAD IN ST.

While both arms crave . for more
Just, ask- us where we're, going

In a series of meetings held this
week under the auspices of the Appointment
Bureau, groups of graduating
students have been enrolling
with the Bureau and learning how to
co-operate with the office in getting
positions. Besides outlining the method
by which the Bureau endeavors
to l>laee students, Miss Jenner gave
the following suggestions to he considered
in making applications for
any position. "Before doing so, the
student does well to consider the
situation and her own adaptability to
it. Such matters as the demands of
a highly supervised or an isolated,
school; the type of community and
one's understanding of its situations;
must all be thought of. The application
itself should be clearly and
concisely worded, and ought to give
information regarding the applicant's
education, the curriculum followed,
teaching experience, special subjects,
age, health, and references. Copies
of recommendations have been found
to be of little value. A good photo
is desirable. Students inexperienced
in making applications may - obtain
assistance at the Appointment^ Office.
With the assistance of Mr.
Fowler, a pamphlet is being prepared
which gives information concerning
applications.
It is essential that students keep
in touch with the office if the best
results are to be obtained. Changes
of address or acceptance of any position
should be reported immediately,
in order that records may be
accurately kept. The bulletin boards
should be watched for notices which
will appear from time to time."

planning a bigger, better annual

calendar for the year is being combined
with the recreation department
in order to provide a more interesting
account of the various social functions.
More space will be devoted to
the joke section than was given in
last year's Klipsun.
Most of the members of the Sophomore
class have made appointments
with the phohographer for their individual
pictures. The club pictures
will be taken next week.
Miss Le Master reports that more
snapshots are needed. All students
having any clever original snaps are
urged to leave them in the- Klipsun
office in the Art room.
