Emholdened by her sister's discovery, Carol started toward the hedge, tripping lightly on her toes, white arms high above her head.


"Good night, she's coming. Run, Mary, run!" but Georgie's en- treaty was stopped by a stern command: "George Fields, come here. What are you doing at this time of night here on the lawns-and Mary with you, too."


"Honest, if it ain't a real fairy, then I'm a sinner," was Georgie's whisper to his companion, and then in a higher voice "Are you Queen Mab?"


"Yes," said Carol, as a titter echoed from the oaks. "I am Queen Mab and I desire that you shall come beneath yonder tree and account for yourself."


"Please, dear fairy," came Mary's voiee from a very dry throat, while a thumping heart accentuated each word, "Georgie and me-ve been to Helen Cook's party, and I got out our back door to come over here to wateh Georgie smoke. Bill Reed showed him how today. He just started to smoke when you-oh-oh-I'm scared !- Oh, Georgie!"


At a word from Carol-for the present, Queen Mab-the other sev- enteen figures closed in on the two culprits, a titter passing through the ranks as they ran around the circle-(although Georgie can solemnly swear that their voices were the voices of death and that they flew, rather than walked.)


"Listen," said Queen Mab, in a stage whisper. "You are in the fairy ring and unless you do what we wish, you shall be changed into a bull frog and your playmate into an eel. You must write on this lily leaf (it had served as a paper naper napkin) this message: "Serve first lunch tomorrow at 11.30 and send up the lunch that includes strawberry short- eake and chicken salad intended for the supervisors; they're well fed enough, and keep your bean soup for them at two o'clock. If this order is disobeyed you lose your life at ten tomorrow night." Signed, A FRIEND OF THE STUDENTS.


"and carry it," continued the Queen, "and drop it in yon dragon's win- dow," (the new chef to this time had resided there). "If you fail to do this you know the penalty," and a fairy wand, previously a preserve ladle, hung dangerously near Georgie's freckled nose.


"Yes, we'll do it," promised Georgie, as he scribbled with the legi- bility of a second-rate thug, "and then what will you do?"


"Send you home," was the answer, but by that time two pairs of feet, with the speed of mercury, were nearing the Chef's window.


Crash! and a white ball attached to a string, landed beside the head of Lars Nelson, the new Norwegian cook. As he awoke from the dream of a pirate ship on which John Silver was handing out "black spots"-and here was a dream nearly realized. * *

Georgie, Georgle," echoed an irate maternal voice off the edge of the Campus, and again, as eighteen figures passed the first floor fire es- cape of Carney Hall-"George!"


11.45 A. M .- All's well, at least in the dining room of Carney Hall, where sixty students' eyes round with surprise, plunge forks into heaping dishes of chicken salad "to see if it's real." But in the base- ment a terrified young Norwegian straps a black trunk as he glances ap- prehensively, first out of the door and then up the steps, fearful, perhaps, lest cither a hungry supervisor or a grinning demon will arrest his flight.


And up in the class room of the other building, the low drone of voices is broken by "Georgie,-it hurts Miss Sheridan to do it, but, if you can't find how many bricks it will take to build the fireplace of your Industrial Arts house, you may stay in."


BETTY BOWMAN, '22.


VIA DUCKS.


A new story is going around the financial districts about an old Southern negro, who was asked by the proprietor of a store how he hap- pened to need credit when he had a good cotton crop.


"De ducks got 'bout all dat cotton, sah," was the mournful reply. "What do you mean, the ducks got it?"


"Well, you see, explained the old man. "I sent dat cotton up to Memphis and dey deducks de freiguts, dey deducks de storage charges, and dey deducks de commission, and dey deducks de taxes. Yes, sah, de ducks got 'bout all at cotton, an' dat's why I'se here, sah."


WORDS.


"Mose," said the elder colored man, "is you married?" "I ain't sayin' I ain't," said Mose.


"I ain't askin' you is you ain't, I'se askin' you ain't you is?"


"George," said the teacher, "is there any connecting link between the animal and vegetable kingdom?"


"Yeth, ma'am," said George. "Hash."

NORMAL SCHOOL-A FOSTER MOTHER OF IDEALS.


(By An Alumna. )


The greatest work which a training school for teachers can do for its students, is to foster within them IDEALS of the profession.


The teacher who grows most rapidly and most surely, is the teacher who has sets of ideals toward which she is working. When she reaches the ideals she has, she strikes out to find new and higher ones. The fail- ures we find among the teachers of a group, are often due, not so much to lack of training, and to lack of ability, as they are to a lack of ideals. Many untrained teachers far surpass some trained ones, because they have more natural aptitude for the work, but unless they gain ideals from Summer School or from visiting other teachers, their growth is limited. They will at any rate make more progress than the trained

teacher who lowers the ideals she gained in the Normal School, to suit the conditions surrounding her.


A teacher of poor ideals is the hardest kind of teacher to help. She has no criterou for judging her own work, or for understanding criticism, especially in the types of work which cannot be measured by the standard tests. She can have no ambition to do better work,-a lack of ideals brings dissatisfaction or despair, either of which is death to pro- gress.


A Training School or Normal School is the place where teachers get their first sets of ideals. After some years of experience, during which :ime they reach, or nearly reach, those goals, they go to Summer School or visit with other teachers to get new and higher aims. Ideals of School Room Appointments and Decorations, School Management and Control, School Room Recitations, Materials and Equipment, Achievements of the Children, How Children Should Read, How Children Should Sing, are all gained in the Normal School, and teachers should go out from there with clearly defined aims and purposes.


A student who graduates from the Normal School, even one lack- ing in teaching ability, who clings to the ideals she has gained there, and works persistently toward them, not allowing the poor conditions of her teaching position to lower her standards, has as sure a chance of succeed- ing as her gifted sister of natural ability.

THE HONORARY MEMBER OF THE CLASS OF '23.


It is not necessary to explain in detail the characteristics of Mrs. Stapleton, the honorary members of the Class of '23, as she is known by all at M. S. N. S. Mrs. Stapleton has been the most intimate friend of this class and besides meeting her at class meetings most of the sections have had Mrs. Stapleton as their English instructor. Many times the class of '23 has had to face difficult situations which seemed impossible until Mrs. Stapleton with her never failing advice and help directed us toward success.


The class of '23 will forever be indebted to Mrs. Stapleton for her whole-hearted interest, and co-operation in our work.


H. COX, '23.


Y WE CAN AID.


Viola Almony.


"Everyone is invited to an entertainment on the North Campus." Everyone went and everyone took part in his County stunt. This event marked the beginning and not the end of many Y. W. activities.


At Installation Service on Sunday night, two hundred girls lit their little candles from the big ones, to signify their desire for membersi ip. At an early vesper service, the girls who had visited Eagles Mere, told of their trip, as delegates to the convention. It was hinted that such a trip would be open to those girls who had the big desire to go. Throughout the year the vespers have been in charge of girls or outside speakers, who have given an idea of what real paths for service are open to each one of us. In giving aid to the suffering Armenians, we have followed one big path.

The cabinet did not hesitate to plunge into work. Indeed their efforts have not been without success for chapel services and Bible Class in addition to regular Sunday night service, have been started. Chapel service, held every Tuesday and Thursday morning, takes the place of the devotional service in the assembly period.


As a business enterprise, a supply room was opened to meet the

needs of the students. Though small in size, it is an undertaking that will grow. An able captain and crew to steer the ship Y. W., has been found in this year's crew. The following were officers: President, Mary Albert; vice-president, Frances Garber; secretary, Cornelia Wilson; treasurer, Har- riet Reeder; assistant treasurer, Florence Duvall; chairman of Bible com- mittee, Madeline Willson; chairman of social committee, Kathryn Monday. The officers for next year will be: President, Rachel Remsburg; vice-presi- dent, Marian Arthur; treasurer, Florence Duvall; assistant treasurer, Es- telle Essig; secretary, Hazel Wright; chairman of Bible committee, Marie Hetzch; chairman of social committee, Margaret Owens.


May the new cabinet be able to lift the Blue Triangle high. May your goal be a hundred per cent. membership.


AN APPRECIATION FROM THE STATE SUPERINTENDENT.


I am in hearty accord with the purposes and ideals of "The Oriole," and of the Maryland State Normal School.


The development of the normal schools of the State is so intimately bound up with the State program for education that the growth of the normal schools in student enrollment and in effectiveness of results, as shown by the work of the gradnates, is a fair basis upon which to judge the progress of education in Maryland. Sincerely yours,


ALBERT S. COOK, State Superintendent.


MESSAGES FROM OUR HIGH SCHOOLS.


The hope of the world lies in the right education of its people. To this end, teaching is the noblest calling. The proper place to prepare for this work is the State Normal School.


MARK CREASY, Principal Chestertown High School.


THE ORIOLE-may it constantly prove a harbinger of new life to Maryland State Normal! As the need of more trained teachers for the schools of Maryland grows, so may the capacity in students and equipment of Maryland's chief teacher-making Institution increase to meet that need. The schools of Maryland are looking eagerly to the young men and women in our State Normal for well-trained teachers so that the efficiency of our schools may fully equal their cost.


JOHN S. HILL, Principal Stockton High School.


Though we may be graded according to various educational scales and theories, the real measure of a teacher's success lies in the number of pupils we have helped to become useful citizens-of the per cent. of cur boys and girls in whom we have developed latent talents to their full fruit. This is our worthy aim, and years alone can measure our success. . ALLEN CARLSON, Principal Nanticoke High School.


The need for better teachers enables us to fully realize the value

of our Normal Schools. It is hoped that Maryland, through its Normal Schools, will educate a sufficient number of teachers to fill all positions within its borders. The best way to improve our Normal Schools is for all principals to co-operate with them in every way passible.


EARLE M. SAWYER Principal Sparks' Agricultural High School.


Thank you for your invitation to write "three sentences" for the "Oriole." It makes me feel like a character in the Arabian Nights-and there's the first sentence. For my second, I can do no better than to con- gratulate you upon your near admission into the ranks of that profession pre-eminently "built for service": the profession of teaching. And for my third, 1 earnestly advise you to have a good time this summer, and to for- get for six weeks at least, everything connected with schools and teaching. ERNEST J. BECKER, Principal Western High School.


Let not prejudice, a partisan spirit, nor egotism close the mind. Be alert toward new suggestions, new ideas, and old ideas in new form. If this be your state of mind you will more nearly learn the truth and re- ceive greater gain. . CHARLES H. REMSBERG, Principal Girls' High School, Frederick.


To visit the Maryland State Normal is indeed an inspiration; its beautiful surroundings, its splendid squipment and its excellent teachers all make a visit there one worth while.


The Rock Hall High School Seniors visited the school recently and came home very enthusiastic, and several have expressed an ardent desire to enroll as pupils in the fall.


The courtesy of the Faculty and Miss Lida Lee Tall, the principal, was highly appreciated. She made the day especially enjoyable by ap- pointing the Rock Hall students at the school a committee to entertain the visitors.


W. S. P. STRANG, Principal Rock Hall High School


I certainly wish the Oriole every success in meeting, as it has done, a distinctive need, and that need is presenting to our High School Seniors the advantages presented to Maryland High School graduates by our State Normal at Towson.


We feel justly proud of the work being done in the State Normal School, and acknowledge our indebtedness to The Oriole for the admirably effective way in which it has mirrored these facts to our student body of the high schools in our beloved State.


H. H. RANSOM, Principal Cambridge High School.


To those who are about to become teachers I would say that 'An undue consideration for the trifles which beset one's path completely ob- scures the mind for an appreciation of the bigger things of life.' HARRY S. BEALL, Principal Rockville High School.


15


Personal interviews with the graduates of Towson High School who are students of the State Normal School, convince me that they are doing excellent work and that they are finding pleasure in doing so. In my judgment this is attributable to the fact that a democratic spirit prevails and that a spirit of co-operation is manifested by both the faculty and the student body. May the membership rapidly increase so that every school in the State of Maryland will be taught by a teacher holding a First Grade Certificate.


ARTHUR C. CROMMER, Principal Towson High School.


Through Miss Smith and Mr. Gibson, with his reels of movies, we have become more intimately acquainted with your school. From the pic- tures and the students we have seen, it seems to be a very happy and profitable place for young men and women.


J. S. FRENCH,


Per C. F. Principal of Easton High School.

SORORITY STANDARDS.


What is the criterion for membership in the Delta Beta Delta Sorority ? When selecting the prospective members of the sorority the council considers the following characteristics: congeniality, initiative, re- finement and good moral character. These qualfications are necessary in order to meet the aims of the sorority, some of which are: to promote com- radeship among the students, and to be, in a true sense, an inspiration to the sorority in their work and social life. The many activities in which the Devils participate make them feel to some extent that their alms are not altogether realized.


Here's luck for '23 ! And fun and pep-Oh, me! Farewell to thee-staunch hearts, To sisters tried and true, Our treasured hopes Our love sincere We proudly leave with you.


Member of '22. .


VIRGINIA DOERING.


I wonder how many of us know Virginia Doering of Junior I? I am sure not one of us is familiar with the work which she has so gener- ously contributed to every cause this year. Perhaps some of us have won- dered who "V. D." was, when it was very inconspicuously signed at the bottom of an interesting and striking poster, or a humorous cartoon. Her work, which shows real talent, has helped to make the Oriole the interest- ing paper which it has become. Virginia has been especially busy in the last two weeks making the attractive posters of the curtains which are exhibited in the main corridor of the Administration Building. If our curtains are as pretty as the posters picture them we will feel that our money is well spent.


Unlike most geniuses, Virginia has many other interests. She is, in a small way, a poet, as ardent tennis player, an enthusiastic member of the Glee Club, and, best of all, a good friend.


Ann Richardson, '23.

TO THE WIND. Oh, they hate the wind and the rainstorm, And they love the sunshine and blue; But oh, Greek youth of the windstorm, I'd fain make a lover of you.


Oh, you're free, and unfettered, and powerful, And yours are the land and the sea, And yours are the plains and the mountains, And my heart belongs to thee.


Oh, yes, you're a rough, teasing, tomboy, And your whoops, as you race, fill the air; But you're life, and you're courage, and gladness, And you thrill me to do and to dare.
