A blind merchant, socially inclined, joined us for a "piece." With him he brought his tiny pet lizard. Lifting a sorrowful voice, he sang a song about a gypsy who stole a pig, weep- ing gently all the while.
Finally reaching the selected spot, we began to prepare supper. The pig (pigs enjoy great popularity there) sizzled deliciously and was soon well roasted. One can imagine our supping near a tropic grove of mangoes, with slender cocoanut palms hovering protectingly above us. Occasionally a mango would fall with a dull thud. I enjoyed the con- versation, too, for. several reasons. The languid beauty of the Spanish language is one, and another-I con- fess in a whisper-is the graceful and decidedly extravagant comple- ments the people pay. After we'd finished eating, a contented hush fell on the party. Then. under the full, mellow moon, Don Felipe strummed his guitar, and we sang native bal- lads.
By this time. we were ready for our swim, and soon we felt the cool rolling waves of the Caribbean rush- ing over us. Up in the heavens, the dancing stars frolicked, too. Even our Faculty forgot their stuffy, peda- gogy completely, and joined in the fun. Then and there, I resolved to study my lessons well during the next week.
But all good things must come to an end. We gathered our scattered belongings, and tumbled in to the waiting "guagua." Our only other passengers that night were two sleepy jibaros, who soon gished a couple of dimes from their ears, paid the driver, and dropped off.
The next thing I became conscious of, was the distant, indignant buzz of thwarted mosquitoes, elusive whiffs of jasmine, and cool, cool sheets .- Phyllis Purnell, Sr. 7.
A MUSICAL MELANGE,
( From a Graduate Student). November 4, 1925
Maryland State Normal School, Towson, Maryland.
Dear
I feel like sitting down and writ- ing, "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party."
of war and drew up a few plans for our future aims. We tried to make them real personal too. Some day you may get a look at the original They may he a turning
point in the educational history of the world.
Monday morning, after I came hack, I went to work to put education on the inap. I meant, and still mean to make it a good solid thing, and not the kind that sounds good when it's talked in the classroom or from the stage of the Normal School audi- torium. Some things sound good if only the melody line is played but when the full orchestration is deliv- ered is comes ont cheap. There are others that are based on simple themes , but are backed with a true harmony that gives symphonic effect. There's the idea, a symphony, a sym- phony in education. Of course as long as people judge their education by cover and title I shall try to appeal to their fancy, but I hope that when they look through it for the tenth time that it will still pack a kick for them.
Under the spur of inspiration I'd have written to you a day or so after 1 started out with the new idea in the old bonnet. However, I thought, (for I am acquainted with my past. ) that I had better wait to see if some of the shine wore off and I had cooled down a bit. About two weeks have gone by and I feel even warmer toward my "Symphony" than before. Two weeks is longer than I have ever stuck to any one idea in my whole life. I have had such dread of monotony that I used to revise the Lord's Prayer at intervals to keep things a little new and exciting.
I hope that there will be a balance of tempo in the introductory move- ments of my initial composition to hold one on the peak of emotion. I shall have to be very careful in balancing my allegro vivaces,, my moderatos, my largos, my movement de Valse, enough of the Allegretto con moto to compensate. the adagio but not so presto as to become nerve racking and give the effects of blar- ing trippling brasses alone, I shall always vary. I shall avoid the dreamy lure of the andante modera- to, the movement of the satisfied child, I must startle myself with a few crashing "double eff zeds" on the cymbal, a cadenza with a trum- pet, and the distant pianissimo of an oboe.
Gentlemen, that symphony will be one tepid infant.
When are you planning to have your homecoming celebration? You would be doing me a great favor if you would let me know. I should like to come down. Might I hope to hear from you some time about it?
Yours very truly.,

ANNUAL NORMAL AND PEST- Safety ALOZZI DEBATE BEST EVER.
The annual debate between the Normals and Pests was held on Fri- day, February 26, 1926. The ques- tion was: "Resolved, That Coal Strikes Should Be Settled by Com- pulsory Arbitration." The affirmative side was upheld by the Normals and the negative by the Pests.
The first speaker was
Miss
Margaret Rohrer, who stressed lter points with a very fine poise for the affirmative; Miss Helen Harmon, a Pest, followed her for the negative. The other speakers were Miss Eliza- beth France, Normal; Miss Helen Tindall, Pest; Mr. Sidney Fishbein. Normal; Mr. Henry Waskow, Pest Miss Harmon gave the rebuttal for the Pests, and Mr. Fishbein, who claimed that the negative was "far off the hypothesis," gave it for the Normals.
Frem extracts of conversations by the faculty and students, the debate was the best of its kind ever held in the school. There was plenty of pep, good songs and also wonderful sportsmanship shown by both elubs. Of course, the deep, dark seeret of who is the victor is withheld until the final contest on April 30. At this time the decision of all three contests will be announced. Speed the day when the strong box will be opened, and the seeret disclosed.

ON SCHOOL TEACHER'S TROUBLES
I wonder if you ever sit and think Of all the trials and troubles teach- | Poetry and love in every thought, ers have. And memories I hold so dear. Children trip the others and many upset the ink,
But Pete, the girl in front, would rather jab.
Then there's the boy who likes to throw spit balls,
'Till the floor looks like snow on a mountain.
Others like to make disorder in the halls,
They break their line and run to the fountain.
And when all the school has indoor recess,
They go 'round making all the noise they can
Instead of trying to see who is best, And who is like a lady and a gentle- man.
But here's to the teacher, who, when she goes out, Forgets all her troubles and doesn't pout.
J. Griffith, Sr. 8.
MY TRUST
I am a teacher And trusting, childish eyes Look unto me confidingly, Their little hands in mine, To follow me, to anywhere. Be my way on high or low or middle ground They follow. Oh, let me feel What mighty trust is mine!
I am a teacher- And ardent, restless, longing youth Look unto me expectantly, Fulfilment of their dreams to aid. As I lead they follow. Oh, let me take the upper road Leading to the heights And they must follow. A mighty trust is mine!
One there was Known throughout the ages And over all the world- The Great Teacher, Who leads forever to the Light., His name I bear. Oh, wondrous thought That challenges my highest, best. I am a teacher. Caroline S. Woodruff, 1925
I AM LONESOME
The sky is blue all tinged with rose, The sun is bright like gold,
The stars, when they shine, are dia- mond jets, The Inminons moon is cold.
The air is soft as it stirs the leaves, The song-birds trill their joy,
A streamlet coos to its rocky bed, As a baby coos to a toy.
There's art in everything I see, And music in all I hear,
The world goes on with its usnal calm,
But to me its joys are few,
Sometimes I dream-in solitude, I'm lonesome dear Normal-for you. Ruth Chrest, Sr. 9.
SPRING
All the world is full of gladness When 'tis merry, merry Spring;
Not a heart is left in sadness
And all nature seems to sing.
There's a sweet and gentle mur- mnring
From a tiny tingling breeze; Sudden comes a mighty uproar As the south wind rocks the trees.
A sweet perfume fills all the land; Trees. kissed by gentle flowers Begin to bud, and make the world A fairyland of flowers. The little brooklet hastes along, Happy now and more it flows,
It tinkles, and ripples, and plays a tune,
As over the rocks it goes.
A clear sweet voice sounds ont afar 'Tis the robin in yonder lane,
He knows that the snow and ice are Not- gone, And that Spring has come again.
For there's something now in all the air
That brings us life anew; That makes the sunshine brighter seem,
And the sky a deeper blue.
The world becomes a bappier place, We're glad to be alive;
Our aspirations and our hopes Once dormant, now revive. The human heart with joy o'erflows, And every living thing No matter whether young or old, Awakes to dance with Spring. Ruth Owens, Sr. 3 sffflif wP .. r.p.,zd
Any girl can be gay in a nice coupe, In a taxi they can all be jolly; But the girl worth while Is the one who can smile When you're taking her home In a trolley .- Berry Blossoms.
A THOUGHT
The rain comes down in tiny spark- ling drops
It cares not where it goes nor where it stops.
The sun has hid behind the silver sky,
It cannot show itself, for night is nigh.
The glistening trees leave shadows here and there
Upon the earth's cold ground and everywhere,
While over all a calm, and such a hush,
Recalls to all the wonder of God's tonch. Victria Rosenfeld, Sr. 7.
A GOOD SHIP
The days and weeks rush on- Time relentless, crowded hours. But that each minute we could pawn. A hoarded ticket, when daylight lowers.
Masses of lessons sigh- Books forgotten-pure delight.
The radiant chorus of the sky. The beauty of God-what tongue can recite?
The world and life are wide-
World eternal, lives our own. Not dreams sublime do turn the tide, But life and work-the best seeds sown.
I. M. B., (Sr. II)
THE MEASURED MAN

But "How did he live?" Not "What did he give?" These are the units To measure the worth
Of a man as a man, Regardless of birth!
"What was his station?"
But- "Had he a heart?" And --- "How did he play His God-given part, Was he ever ready, With word o' cheer, To bring back a smile, To banish a tear?"
Not -- What was his church ?" Nor- "What was his creed ?" But- "Had he befriended Those really in need?"
Not- "What did the sketch In the newspapers say?"
But- "How many were sorry When he passed away?" Selected.

In this game the girls showed a wonderful improvement in passwork. Dickey starred in caging difficult shots. The half ended in Normal's favor, 10-8. In the third quarter Normal ran wild, scoring fourteen points to Western's 1. In the fourth quartor Western threatened for a while, but Normal soon drew away again.

The Frostburg and Towson men engaged in one of the most exeiting games ever staged at Frostburg. Snyder, Normal center, made the first goal in the game, but Frostburg soon scored. The whole first half see-
sawed back and
forth,
although
Frostburg was only in the lead once. The end of the half found the Nor- mal cagers leading Frostburg 16-15.
The second half found both teams deaermined to prevent the other from winning this half and little. seoring resulted. The end of the third quarter again found Normal leading, 18-16. The final quarter opened with a fierce drive by both teams to win the game. Snyder opened the scoring by caging a free throw from the foul line. But Vogt- man brought his team's score to 18, with Normal having 19, by eaging a thrilling Jong shot.
Normal School battled fiercely to hold its lead, and its zeal caused a foul en Vogtman while he was at- tempting to shoot. He was thus given two free tries at the basket. Success with both would mean the seizing of the lead by Frostburg. with the end of the game a few minutes out of sight.
With bated breath the crowd watched Vogtman take his first free try. A cheer rent the air, as he suc- cessfully made it and tied the seore. Again the crowd waited painfully while he tossed the ball toward the basket. A sigh swept from the as- semblage as the ball rolled unsue- cessfully off the rim.ª
The game sped on more fiereely than before. The Normal cagers were making superhuman efforts to score and put the game on ice. Sud- denly Snyder cut in. The ball shot to him and with a baek-hand toss he successfully caged the ball for the lone remaining minute of the game. The Normal basketeers kept the score
17-14. The game, played on Nor-|miliarity with the floor, added tolat 21-19 until the whistle blew, an-
at the half being 10-8 in favor of the Western Maryland lasses. Nor- mal's team must have heard a strong lecture in their dressing-room dur- ing halves, for they came back with blood in their eyes. When the whistle blew for the end of the game our girls had made nine counters to their opponents' four. Another vic- tory for our girls!
Fanny Braunstein starred by mak- ing ten of her team's points. Potts, a. new player for Normal, did very well, and made five points in the bar- gain.

The girls' game was a rip-roaring thriller all the way through. It
be- resolved itselť into
a. duel tween the two captains. "Gert," play- ing a splendid game, guarded Cap- tain Boyd, Frostburg's scoring ace. Normal started off with a rush, scoring two goals within the first minute. MaeMillan brought Frost- burg's score up by scoring two goals before the half ended. At half-time the score was 16-21, favor Normals.
Frostburg opened in the second half, a drive that finally put its team ahead at the end of the third quarter. However, Boyd was re- moved on account of personals, and, although Grimes, our star side-cen- ter, was also put out, the Normal team swept on and used its scoring power with great results. The game finally ended and Normal lead, 29-23.
