Th e-43 VOL. XXXIV—NO. 39 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL", BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Thursday, July 23, 1936 Normalite By A. B. Hicks "Throttle the clock and wring the neck of time" seems ot be the muttered words of the nighthawks of term's end. Really though—we have had a good time as is proven by the many first termers who are signing up for the second term. $ * * * * Are we going back to the good old days of sixty and eighty scholars? Hoot Mon! I guess that is what Arntzen thinks after counting his sheep and finding eight in one class. Speaking of sheep though, have you ever been in the reserve room of the library on Friday evening long about four! All. of those in favor of adopting the Piggly Wiggly style made known their wishes by the usual sign. WOOPS— all of you go to the end of the line! What is a Boy? "He is a person who is going to He is going to sit where you are sitting and when you are gone attend to those things you think are so important. You can adopt all the policies you please but how they will be carried out depends on him. Even if you-make leagues and treaties, he will have to manage htem. He will assume control of your cities, states, and nation. He is going to move in and take over your prisons, churches, schools, and corporations. All your work is going to be judged and praised or condemned by him. Your reputation and your future are in his hands. All your work is for him; the fate of the nations and of humanity is largely in his hands—SO. It is well to pay him §ome attention NOW. Lower Grades Display Worlds Children Discuss Summer Ideas In Social Science Activities For Assembly "Children's Experiences During the Summer" was the background from which the second and fourth grades planned their Thursday morning Training school assembly. In the second grade the children have experienced many science activities, and for a part of their program "Items in Science" was explained by a child in the class. A second grade newspaper has been a group interest and this was described. A group of children dramatized the story of "The Farmer and His Three Daughters." As a final contribution "A Visit to the Bakery" was discussed by members of the class. "People at Work" has been a fourth grade interest for the past six weeks. Tours have been planned and taken to the railroad roundhouse, the Normal school engine room, the new gymnasium, the paper mill, and the furniture factory in order that a closer understanding of social science could be realized. Pulleys, levers, types of machinery, and speed interested the children greatly. They have done crayon pictures showing the mechanistic developments, and they alsb enjoyed doing creative work in poetry. These were all explained to the assembly. Several musical numbers were sung by groups from the kindergarten first, sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. Difference of Opinion Prevalent During International Relations Institute at Reed By Elmer Lindquist The failure of sanctions against Italy, as the aggressor, in the Italo- Ethiopean war made for profound differences in opinion, as to the method of securing international peace, among members of the Pacific Northwest institute of international relations which met at Reed college, Portland, from July 6 to 16. Complete pacifists, who sanction no violence; isolationists, who insist that the United States stay away from all alliances with foreign errantries; those faithful to the League of nations, believing that we must support the only existing international machinery; those who wish to reorganize the League of nations; those who believe that no true peaceful international relations can be carried on with our present economic organization and who would place the emphasis on changing the economic order to one more compatible with internationalism; all these, and more, found opportunity, in lectures, debates, round table discussions and bedroom arguments, to air their points of view. The institute was so organized that a maximum opportunity for the exchange of ideas was afforded, and the opportunity was seized. After each lecture, time was awarded for questioning, and many of the meetings were continued more informally and more heatedly during the free afternoon periods, than was possible in the lecture hall. Prominent among speakers were: Lieut. Com. Stewart F. Bryant of the U. S. Navy, retired, who spoke at the Normal school last winter; Dr. George Blakeslee, professor of International relations at Clark university, Mass., who was technical advisor to the Lytton commission in Manchuria; Dr. Dorothy Detzer, peace lobbyist for the Women's international league for peace and freedom at Washington, D. C; Dr. Y. Y. Tzu, professor of Sociology at St. Johns university in Shanghai, China. Also meeting at Reed college was the League college. The League college is held every year following the N.E.A. convention, in the same city. The purpose is to study and discuss teachers problems. This year special emphasis was laid upon the problem of teacher security. Carl Horthy is something more than a tenor. Many a man has carried false pride and prejudice to his final resting place but not so with Horthy. Did you notice that in spite of the fact Horthy lost one leg in the recent war he hobbled onto the stage to sing for us the songs of Schubert and other German composers. KEEP OFF THE GRASS I gotta shoes You gotta shoes All Viking NChilluns gotta shoes We gotta shoes-^gonna walk all over Dacks hebben. Judging by the recent assembly, I too would say that Mr. Robert Kinschy has become quite expert with his puppets. I am reminded of the following poem by Robert Louis Stevenson. PLAYTHINGS The streets are full of human toys, Wound up for threescore years; Their springs are hungers, hopes and joys, And jealousies and fears. They move their eyes, their lips, their hands; They are marvellously dressed; And here my body stirs or stands, A plaything like the rest. The toys are played with till they fall, Worn out and thrown away, Why were they ever made at all! Who sits to watch the play(! What did you think of tn* 7»o-couver pageant? That just goes to show you that no matter how good the other ones were that you have seen, there is always some better. Another topnotcher chalked up tor the summer. Tuesday Nite Hike To Galbraith Camp Galbraith's logging camp will be Tuesday night's destination of the Normal school hike enthusiasts. The party will leave the starting point on High street in front of the school at 4 p. m., in charge of Miss Ruth Weythman and Coach Charles Lap-penbusch, and will drive to the Galbraith logging road on the Samish highway. "This will be an unusual oppor- in fell that gurgling crooner again. tunity to see the workings of a modern logging camp, as the company is operating steadily," said Herbert Ruckmick, chairman of the recreation committee, in comment ing on the proposed hike, i First Puppet Play Liked by Shipley B ozo, the Clown, Steals Show; Training School Sees Performance By Helen Shipley A splotch of red and black, a shiny red nose, and a laugh that gurgled like a listerine bottle—that was Bozo the clown to his assembly audience Monday morning. He careened back and forth, bowed down with his duties as master of ceremonies. Bozo, the puppet with that personality you can't forget. His laugh got me, and when he raised his hand to summon his entertainers, I relaxed and said, "Come what may." There was Lorenzo, the zyophon-ist. He had rhythm—the good old swing type. After Jack the Juggler, Historical Pageant Seen By Students Two Bus Loads Go to Vancouver; City's History Depicted In Parade Cadet Nurses Help Former Normal Student Here In Health Office Assistance has been .rendered the health department this summer by two cadet nurses from the University of Washington. Miss Alma Weber of Cashmere, former Normal student, and Miss Doris Beeman of Seattle are doing field work for their certificates in health nursing. Of her colleague, now with the visiting nurses of Belling-ham, Miss Weber said: "Miss Beeman received her training at the Seattle General hospital. She receives her degree in nursing very soon." Of herself she said, "I got my training from the San Francisco hospital in San Francisco. I am to follow Miss Beeman soon." This time he gave us the premiere danseuse, who tipped her little toes until the curtain fell down. What is that thing? It's an old anemic mule. Will he get up enough spinach to motivate itself off the stage? He finally did, and then Bozo brought us "The Three Wishes"—a very meaty drama, if you sausage what I mean! Finale. Viking Staff Excursion Eliza Island on Friday Ship Ahoy! Come On! Come all ye Northwest Viking staff members, who have a yen for sailing the rough, blue, briny deep. > Sail Friday from 4:00 to 9:00 aboard the good ship with seaworthy Captain Garland, to yonder Isle Eliza. The paradise of nature. See nature in the raw, where deer, birds and man live in harmony with their island environment. Leave all , those summer school books and cares in the refined, scholastic atmosphere of your room. Two bus loads of students left the Normal school at 4 p. m. Tuesday to attend the historical pageant given at Vancouver, B. C. The pageant was given on Brockton point in Stanley park, and depicted the history of the city from the time the Spaniards first sailed into what is now the harbor of Vancouver. All events shown were accurate as to date and facts. The pageant was presented on a huge revolving stage with English bay and the mountains as a background. As each succeeding episode was shown, out in the harbor an electrical display showed ships of the corresponding historical periods. Encamped in the park as part of the atmosphere of the show were a group of Indians forming a tribal village. The show, lasting from 9 p. m. until midnight was, according to some who had seen both, superior in many ways to a similar one given > at the Century of Progress expo- f sition at Chicago. This was the! -last night that the pageant was shown. Teachers Ta\e Summer Trips Instructors Choose Many Interesting Vacation Spots For Summer Nova Scotia, Hawaii, and Alaska are only a few of the interesting vacation-spots chosen by members of the Normal school faculty. When the term ends tomorrow, Miss Leona Sundquist and Miss Irene Elliott, will be ready to start their motor trip to eastern Canada. They plan to go by way of the New England states and spend the rest of the summer at Gaspe Bay. Hawaii is the destination of Misses Miriam Snow, Bertha Crawford, and Linda Countryman. They sail on the Empress of Japan, and plan to be gone six weeks. Misses Emma Erickson and Elsie Wendling have chosen Alaska for their vacation. Eastern States Visited Three faculty members will visit relatives and friends in eastern states. They are: Miss Mary B. Rich, Miss Florence Johnson. Mise Hazel Jean Plympton will go to New York where she will study next year at Columbia, university. Misses Paula Potter, Katherine Casanova, and Dorothy Brosi plan to motor to Lake Louise and Banff before going to their respective homes in Kansas, Illinois, and California. Dawson To California Miss Marjorie Dawson will leave Monday for her home in Carmel, California. Miss Priscilla Kinsman also plans to spend part of the summer in California. Miss Pearl Mer-riman and her sister, who recently arrived from Colorado, will tour in California and Utah before returning to their home in Denver. Fifth Grade Group Take Library Tour Library ~ consciousness for the child was, developed in the fifth grade children of the training school, Tuesday morning, when Miss Mabel Zoe Wilson, librarian, conducted the group on an inspection tour of the entire library. Mies Wilson explained the different procedures that are concerned with the securing of a book and the charging of it. The children seemed very interested in the general organization, and their questions showed that the information thej obtained would be of future use to. them. One child mentioned ttafe «—« Q —• . Main Building of Normal To Be Reshingled Soon For years the old building of the Bellingham State Normal shcool has worn its old head gear. When the Normal trustees met at their monthly meteing, Wednesday afternoon, plans were made to call for bids for the re-shingling of the main building. While the building from its* upper anatomy seems to havp lost its dignity, judging from the 458 squares of shingles needed to cover its top, the structure still seems to possess a big-headed, upper extremity. Like women, the best is none too C URRENT ALENDAR of Happenings Bring along your roving, care-free g o o d f o r a h e a d adornment. vif with w . «f ™« «!.„• * * T h e reshingling of the Normal self with lots of pep, plenty to eat.
