WHAT STUDENT GOVERN- MENT MEANS.
What does the name Student Gov- ernment mean to you and you and you ? Ask yourself that question. Does it mean much thought and con- sideration for every one concerned ?
Student Government should have a definite place in the life of every student, for every student is a mem- ber. Before an organization can be a success, each member should be thoroughly in sympathy with the or- ganization and live up to its stand- ards. Boost it every day.
Girls and boys-here is your op- portunity for school spirit and hearty co-operation. Do not miss it. Student Government at Normal is young, but that is all the more rea- son why we should give it our sup- port and help to mold its growth in a wholesome, whole-hearted way. It is an organization headed and con- ducted by the students and advised by members of the faculty.
Student Government has for its purpose, self-government on the part of each student, based on the Honor ~ System. It also aims to make our school and dormitory community a better place in which to live. Through this organization we try to make our school and its members the very best : to be found by maintaining high standards of living.
This year we hope to make Nor- mal a better and happier place to live through a higher and better spirit of co-operation and loyalty ou the part of each student.
"Honesty and Loyalty" is our ly you can and you are going to.

A GOOD JOKE ON ME.
When I was a little girl living in Baltimore, my grandmother came to visit us. Mother entertained a few friends in her honor. Several days later one of the ladies called, and upon seeing her coming down the street I ran to meet her.
"Grandmother and mother are out," I said.
"I am sorry," said she. "I came to pay my party call."
"That's all right," I said, "I'll take the money."

MENARIS FRANCE SPEAKS FOR BOYS' ATHLETICS.
I am here to talk directly to the fellows. The girls may listen if they wish.
Fellows, my duty and privilege to- day, is to welcome you into our part of the athletics. Considering the handicap under which we had to play last year our efforts were successful. Of course, if you consider winning as success, our soccer season last year was not a success, for we won very few of the games which we played. But what I consider the success of last year's season, was the sportsmanship and school spirit which we developed. On every field where we went to play we were al- ways greeted as the best of sports, both by players and spectators. And then you must remember that we had but thirteen fellows from which to pick a team and of this number only three knew anything of the game. So you can easily see what a hard fight we had.
Our basket-ball season was a de- cided success from every angle. Out · of a schedule of eighteen games, we lost but five. In this sport we had to again contend with the difficulty of developing players. We had but two men who knew anything of the game but under the exceptional coaching of Mr. Touchton, we developed a very fast team.
Baseball was not much. As you all know, it takes more skill to play this than it does the other sports, and as we had the same difficulty of developing players and not much time in which to do it, we did not succeed very well. But we organized a team and although it wasn't of the highest calibre, it showed the spirit which was in us and which, after all, is the highest thing in sports.
Now fellows, when the call is is- sued for candidates, let's all come out 100% and show our new coach we are in earnest, and mean to back him up every inch of the way, and as we have the nucleus of last year's team back, I think we can combine the new and old in such a way that the larger schools and colleges will
sit up and take notice, and I know, STAGE COMMITTEE, 1922-23.
if the girls this year back us np the way the girls of last year did, we cannot help but have a huge success.
Y. W. C. A. WELCOME.
1 am glad to bring you a sincere greeting from the Y. W. C. A. It is nice to think that we are nearly five hundred strong. I have great faith in the strength of numbers for onr work this year.
The Y. W. C. A. is a part of our school. We want it to mean much to yon and know that you and your good-will will mean very much to us.
Almost all of you have met at least a few of our "Ask Me" girls. We have tried to give you compe- tent service and we will be glad to continue to serve you as long as you need our help.
One of the really big purposes of in the following ways:
the Y. W. C. A. is to make our school life richer and fuller. With this purpose in view, many social activities have been planned for the school year. The first event will be end of an event.

Early this fall there will be a Membership Campaign. We are go- ing to do our best to try to hold your interest until then-and then make all of you members.
Again I wish to extend to you a hearty welcome. Please watch the bulletin boards for our notices. RACHEL REMSBERG, President of Y. W. C. A.

We are very glad that there has been only one change in this corps of training teachers since last year, Miss Olive Moore is taking the place of Miss Nellie Gray, who has left Lutherville to become Assistant Supervisor of grammar grades in Baltimore County.
The training teachers at the differ- ent schools are: Fullerton-First Grade, Miss Grogan; Fifth Grade, Mrs. Hopkins; Sixth Grade, Miss Moffat; Lutherville - Upper Grades, Miss Olive Moore; Primary Grades, Miss Conavan; Ridge-All Grades, Miss Hipsley; Timonium - Upper Grades, Miss Logan.

Your head is full of plans for that standard test which you are going to give in arithmetic- or is it that Industrial Arts project ? -but you see the beautiful country through which you are passing.

You carry out your own plans and ideas perhaps better than you expected, and then the feeling of achievement which it gives you, more than makes up for the work of preparation. Per- haps you are not so successful as you had hoped. Then the comments and suggestions of the critic teacher fill you with new plans and new hope and you leave full of determination not to make the same mistake again and with the comforting thought that "Rome wasn't built in a day."

THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NEWS.
Do you know what happened on September the thirteenth? On that day the Elementary School at Normal opened its doors and many children entered. One hundred and seventy- one boys and girls were enrolled the first day, a gain of twenty-one chil- dren over last year's number. The
present year in the Normal Elemen- tary School promises to be a success- ful one. If the aims of the school book cases or lockers. An interest- are carried out, by the end of the year the school will be raised to a higher standard of development and education.
In the school last year there were four teachers, and this year there are six. Miss Myrtle Eckard, fifth grade critic teacher, has taught for the past six years at Franklin High It is necessary that student teach- ers see more teaching by their critic teachers. This year it has been planned that the critic teacher teach at least once a week for the student teacher, carrying out the student teacher's lesson plan. School, Reisterstown, Md. She at- tended Columbia the past summer. Miss Letitia Farrell, seventh grade critic teacher, taught at Annapolis High last winter. She studied at One of the greatly enjoyed activi- ties of the Elementary School is the Hopkins last summer, and is plan- ning to continue some work there this year. Mrs. Martha Sibley, critic planning and developing of projects. teacher for the first grade, is a grad- nate of the Georgia State College for Women. She has been a teacher in the Atlanta School, and this past summer she taught primary metnods in the Georgia State College. She also studied at Columbia this sum- mer.

a S. de- gree from Teachers' College, Colum- bia University, and has taught in Georgia and New York State.
One large aim of the year is the acquirement of more books for gen- eral reading. To have more books, a greater sum of money is needed. More sets of readers are desired in the first and second grades. More history books are needed in Grades IIl to VIl.
There is an especially keen inter- est this year in the physical devel- opment of the child. It has been planned that both boys and girls shall have definite periods each week for athletics under directors provid- ed for this work. Mr. Whiting is

A different form of school room equipment is necessary in the school room of today than that of yester- day. Immovable desks are proving a hindrance to teachers as well as pupils. Tables and chairs are bet- ter adapted to the needs of the chil- dren and so they are taking the place of desks in the primary grades of the Elementary School. This year the use of the Elementary Assembly has been given to the first grade. In the rooms where there are tables and chairs, it will he necessary to have

In the opper grades, the sixth grade is working on a scheme to equip a room which is not adapted to them. They are to furnish their room, building lockers and book cases for it. The seventh grade has planned to run a monthly newspaper in con- nection with their English work.
The Elementary School plans to contribute each month to this paper, some of their work, but as the time. has been so short, only two articles, are available.
THE ENGLISH ASSEMBLY.
Mr. Walther gave us a "rush or- der" for an assembly on September 27, but of course, we wanted to do our part even though we were the first members of the Junior Class to "appear in public on the stage." As we are just beginning the study of written composition, and have been spending our time on problems of planning long themes, we had no papers complete. So we borrowed three essays written by last year's Juniors, and read them. They were Miss Katherine Perdue's on "Bobbed Hair;" Miss Sara Payne's on "The Friday Exodus," and Miss Anna Mur- ray's on "Homesickness." All of them were such clever papers that we hope they furnished inspiration to all Juniors to go to work in earn- est upon the hig problem of writing interesting papers, not only for
class, but for The Oriole.
WHAT DID HE MEAN?
Junior: I think I shall take my beauty sleep now.
He: Take a good, long, sleep, dear.
