DIVIDED WE STAND.
Friday, October 10, 1924, will go down in many a memory book as a Red Letter Day. On that day the Fates decided who were to be Pests, and who were to be Normals.
At first, feeling ran
high only among the old members, while the new students looked on and won- dered what it was all about. Dur- ing assembly hour, however, every- body seemed to be overflowing with enthusiasm, and could hardly wait until things got started.
Envelopes had previously been arranged which contained the society colors and slips of paper bearing the decisive words: "Either Pest or Normal." These envelopes were di- vided evenly among the new stu- dents. No attempt was made to orserve order when these were being opened.
The new members of the rival societies lined up on opposite sides of the corridor and proceeded to meet the officers, who stood at the doors ready to greet them. The old members were seated at the front of the assembly. Cheer after cheer sounded from that section as the new members walked down the aisle.
Thus, amid songs and cheers the Normal and Pastalozzi Literary So- cieties were launched on their re- spective careers for 1924-25. Plans are under way for competitive con- tests to be held throughout the year.
The societies have always been an ever-present source of enthusiasm and joy. With the addition of our city friends the Maryland State Nor- mal School expects our societies to be better and stronger than ever be- fore.

KINDERGARTEN ACTIVITIES.
The little tots in the kindergarten class are anticipating a happy time -Halloween.
They planned to have a real party with real Halloween music. They made pretty hats to wear for the gala occasion. All sorts of games were played and fun was had hunt- ing for peanuts.
We older folks would love to have peeped in at them in the midst of their merry-making.
The children in the kindergarten class always say "grace" when they eat their lunches together in the school. Several days ago one of the little boys in the kindergarten told his mother that a girl in his class was named Grace.
"What is her last name?" asked the small boy's mother. "Thank the Lord," replied the
child.

OUR LIBRARY.
Books are silent friends, and as old friends are our best mirrors, we can see ourselves as others see us very well through this medium. At our own Maryland State Normal School we can find many friends in looking through the rows upon rows of hooks of every size, shape and description. Our library, which is divided into county and city sections, is to the last degree attract- ive and inviting. It is ready to re- ceive with open arms all those who want to come into it and seek new friends, and at the same time enjoy its comfortable and cozy atmosphere.
Truly, as far as the appearance of our library is concerned, it is the sunniest, brightest spot in school and seems to fairly radiate good cheer. Some time when you have plenty of spare. time come into the library and browse- around among the books and see how much knowl- edge is tucked away in the utter- most recesses and nooks of the room.
Our library is a very important factor or stablishment in the school. Without it work-could not be carried out to any extent, and the courses that we are taking would be almost worthless, because we could not find suitable references as conveui- ently any other place as here.
There are many special advantages in having our library.
First and foremost, we secure all of our books from it instead of hav- ing text books as we did when most of us were in the grammar grades, and as some of us did in high school. Second, we can find here enter-
tainment. ls there a man who doesn't like to settle down comfort- ably in a chair with a book to his liking and spend a few hours in another place-another world, and under different circumstances?
Therefore, as a place to find infor- mation for our studies and recre- ation for our spare minutes our library answers your purpose. No matter what book you find on our shelves you can be well assured that your mind is a wee bit broader and you are better off for having read it Books are a means for higher education and refinement. They add to one's culture and consequent- ly wield a great influence upon us. As teachers, we of the Maryland State Normal School want to realize the benefit of the easy access that we have to a modern and well supplied library. The importance of the library to our school can hardly be expressed or realized.
Perhaps we will understand to some extent the value of the library when we know that during the twelve school days in September there were 7,610 books given out, and during the first twenty-eight days in October there were 18,096
books circulated. Such is the large circulation of our book land!
Not only does the library afford us a means of becoming better teachers, but helps those whom we are going to teach, to some extent. The chil- dren of the elementary school find this a new realm in which they can amuse as well as educate themselves. At a given hour on certain days some of these children come up for a story-telling hour. Here they gather about and listen to some
story told them from
our shelves and see pictures which illustrate the stories. The kiddies are delighted with this phase in their school life, and by such means they are trained to use books and appreciate books. They are trained during the first six years of their life, and when they finally reach the seventh they are allowed to take books home for a week. Thus we see how children are made to understand and appre- ciate and love our library.

TEACH THEM TO TALK.
The Junior high schools of Rich- mond, Ind., have had for the past four years a course in general lan- guage which is aimed to give the pupil an appreciation of the fact that language is a living, growing thing subject to change. The course is regarded as having been highly successful.
WISE TAX LAW.
Arkansas has recently put a tax of two dollars a thousand on cigarettes and ten per cent. on cigars for the purpose of augmenting the school fund of the State. It is estimated that by this means two and three millions will be added to the school fund.

MY PLEASURE PLACE.
Fishing, swimming and sailing are all at my door. Every inch of the water is ready for me to explore. I jump into a motor boat and cruise for hours. I idle along shaded waters in a canoe, paddling or drift- ing where I please, with an ever- changing picture before my eyes. Often I embark in a flat bottomed boat for an afternoon with rod and tackle, seeking the spot where I can enjoy the thrills of landing a big perch or trout. 1 often absorb the beauties of the sunset on the
river as the sun sinks, becoming
eventually only a lengthening re- flection across the waters. After a moonlight canoe trip I retire to my cottage. There I tumble into my
bed, to be lulled to sleep by the sighing pine trees, to slumber with the tang of the salt sea in my nos- trils. This, above all, is the most restful place I can find.

METAL SHELVES ARE NEEDED.
Those of you who happened to pass by Mrs. McCord's kingdom of Industrial Arts (basement, rear en- trance, facing Newell Hall) were not surprised during the last month to hear loud iusistnt noises issuing from the door. Undoubtedly, many of the aforesaid passersby thought seriously of writing to our Commit- tee for the Abolition of Nuisances and demanding strict Enforcement of Law No. 843. This statute stipu- lates that all boiler-makers shall be duly licensed and their shops equip- ped with Maxim Silencers.
But ah! We, the originators of that "bing! clang! slam! ozone dis- turbances" are not boiler makers. Spare us! We are merely a group of industrious ( ?) lads of Senior XIII, working on a project of tin shelves and pans to serve as model- ing-clay receptacles.
Our original project was the erec- tion, finishing and dedication of a housing for volumes (as the cross- word puzzle states) namely, a book- case; but after a conference we de- cided that fellows who can plane an 8x10 inch plank down to a 2x1 inch toothpick while attmpting to square timbers would not qualify for the bookcase-makers' guild. Hence, we tried metal. Our problem was to cut, bend, solder and otherwise mutilate a perfectly respectable sheet of tin until it resembled a shelf. This shelf is to hold a pan of a clay receptacle. The clay is used in the modeling of art objects such as vases. candlesticks, jugs.
After the planning we started on the cutting. at the conclusion of which, to our disgust and discom- fiture, no two ends would meet. Consternation and a couple of gee- whizzes! But the steadfast victory- at-any-odds qualities of the true son of Normal came to the rescue. A
few snips here, a clip there, and it fitted-exit gloom.
The group now divided into in- dividual metal workers and the work now is progressing progressively (apologies to Mr. LaFollette).
In conclusion, when your "best one" is out with his ideal, and all your studies are up to date (in other words, when you have a few minutes in which to feast your eyes) come and see the "putty" shelves of the boys of Senior VIII.

GREEN MANSIONS.
By W. H. Hudson.
I realize that "Green Mansions" is by no means a very recently pub- lished book-it is not a best seller. but the comparatively recent death of the author made me think that the choice would be a good one. Then, too, Hudson's works have not generally received the appreci- ation that they merit. Green Man- sions is a "Romance of the Tropical Forest," as Hudson says. And a. very romantic romance it is, too! It is, however, notable for the inimit- able descriptions it gives of the for- ests-the green mansions-of South America. With a quiet all his own, Hudson pictures for us the beauty of a place where no one (humanly speaking) even enters to molest its peace. And so well does he de- scribe it that we can almost hear the monkeys chattering in the trees.
As I said, the book is notable for its descriptions. I should also have said that it is unusual for its ac- counts of the native Indians. When we read Hudson's accounts of them, we cannot but feel that the author knew his subject.
As for the story, it deals with the romance of a young Venezuelan who, leaving his home for political reas- ons, decides to bury himself in the wilds and study the language and habits of the Indians. While stay- ing with one of the tribes he ex- plores the forest that they (the In- , dians) do not dare to enter because of a foolish superstition. In this forest he meet Runa.
Who is Runa? What is her his-
tory?
Why should she live in this
In the University of Hawaii the racial problem is working itself out admirably. Last year the student enrollment was as follows: Caucas- ian, 162; Japanese, 79; Chinese 71; Hawaiian and part of Hawaiian, 25; Koreans, 6; Filipinos, 2. Dr. Lei- brick of the faculty says: "They con- duct their student activities by self- government. The student body con- stitutes a small inter-racial democ- racy. There is absolute social, po- litical and athletic equality, and there is no evidence of group action based upon race."

IT IS HERE. October is perhaps one of the most beautiful months in all the year, so far as nature's color scheme is concerned. The forests thrive with beauty. Each tree adorns her- self in her loveliest gown as if for a grand celebration which in is reality the beginning of the end. The leaves soon fade and fall and there remains a woods divested of its colorful raiment. The chatter- ing squirrels who are busy storing away a supply of nuts in their nests, frisk from tree to tree seeking the last element of joy.
Yet with all the life and industry of the forest and the artistic autum- nal coloring, there is
a distinct pathos which has been expressed by the famous Hoosier poet in "Old October":
"I love Old October so,
I can't bear to see her go- Seems to me like losing some Old-home relative er chum- 'Pears like sorto' settin' by Some old friend 'at sigh by sigh
Was a passing out o' sight Into everlasting night.
Hickernuts a feller hears
Rattlin' down is more lik tears Drippin' on the leaves below- I love Old October so."

THE HOT DOG ROAST.
It happened on the twentieth day of October. Until that time we wondered just exactly what an ad- viser might be. The word would certainly lead one to believe that the one bearing such a title would be the very essence of business and study; not one to connect them with hot-dog roasts and the like.
So when we girls of Junior I re- ceived the word that our adviser, Miss Woolsey had invited us to a hot- dog roast down in that charming, wooded valley behind the school, our eyes grew poppy, and our mouths flew open. And then it happened, just as I have said. At three o'clock or thereabouts on that eventful day, we met in 214, Miss Woolsey's class room, and from there, laden with the goodies, we made our partly precipitous way down into "Pleasure Valley."
What fun it is to build a camp- fire! What fun to walk through the leaves and pull a pointed branch from one of the overhanging trees! Oh, yes! that is what we did; for on these sticks we were to place our hot-dogs, which, to be in vogue, we shall call by the more up-to-date name of Frankfurts.
Miss Woolsey told us not to stop, but to keep right on roasting and eating-it was evident that she did not want to relieve us of our appe- tites-but who can eat when they are intensely interested in their ad- viser? Announcements being com- pleted, the coffee at the same time being well boiled, we proceeded to consume an almost unreasonable amount of sweet-cakes with an equally unreasonable amount of coffee.
As Old Sol was lengthening the shadows in the valley we left. To say "A good time was had by all" would be putting it mildly, for I honestly believe that words cannot fittingly express our pleasure and happiness on that red-letter day in our young lives.
A DIFFERENCE.

AN INTERESTIING PROJECT.
Junior VI heaved a sigh-a mighty sigh-when Miss Evans sug- gested that we investigate some
problem on "Records." When we began we had no idea how illumin- ating and interesting our work would be. For an incentive Miss
Fitzgerald told us how interested her class, the Fifth Grade, was In the "Book of Knowledge" and how they were working on Records also. We decided to make a Book of Knowledge on Records for the Fifth Grade.
We have awakened the Egyptlan mummy from his centuries of sleep with our hungry cries of "Records, records! Give us your records!"
With bated breath and softly treading feet we have entered the monasteries of the middle ages and even the noisy factories of today in our search.
A little crack in the door of time was opened to find the origin of the alphabet and even the door was flung open to "today" to find the latest improvement in stenography and telephones.
What a lot of work our ancestors have accumulated for us! We cer- tainly enjoyed excavating and pre- paring it and hope our "Records" will record well with the Fifth
Grade!
TOO EASY.
The ministry of education of China is opposing the sending of Chinese students to American uni- versities, saying that American col- lege courses are inefficient and de- grees are obtained too easily. In- stead of sending so many students to America, the ministry is urging that more money be spent to send the more deserving ones to European institutions of learning.

THE PERSONNEL OF SR. VI.
On Tuesday morning, September 16, a rather forlorn looking group who called themselves Sr. VI gath- ered in Miss Van Bibber's class room-we were forlorn looking be- cause the schedule committee or some one else in authority had deemed it wise to take a few from Juniors 1, 2, 3 and 5 and call us Senior Vi.
However, soon after our first meeting we realized that we should make the best of the situation, so we organized our section, electing Saville Mathews. chairman; Cather- ine Hagan, secretary; Virginia Han- dy, treasurer, and Kathleen Adams, social chairman.
Miss Birdsong was chosen as our section adviser, and with her advice and the cooperation of every mem- ber of the section we hope to make Senior VI known to everyone in ! school.

BIG ENROLLMENT AT STATE NORMAL.
Eleven hundred and nineteen stu- dents are registered at the Maryland State Normal School. The enroll- ment which almost doubles that of last year, is the largest in the his- tory of the institution. Men ap- peared for enrollment in increased numbers this year. More than 65 now are listed on the rolls. Four years ago, when the school was opened to them, only 17 entered. Eighteen new instructors have been added to the faculty. Ten of these are former members of the staff of the Teachers' Training School.
Many of the teachers now employ- ed by the Kent county Board of Edu- cation are gathered from this State Institution. Out of the class that graduated last year practically all of the county girls have accepted i schools in Kent county. This coun- ty has many students at State Nor- mal School this year .- Chestertown Transcript.
MR. KIMBERLY SPEAKS IN ASSEMBLY.
The assembly of Tuesday, October 28th. was in charge of the School- room Management Group. --- They presented to us an able and convinc- ing speaker, Mr. John Kimberly, chairman of the Non-Partisan Com- mittee, and "a friend of education."
The theme of his talk was that the Bond Issue should be passed to se- cure the needed schools for the
children of this county. He said the purpose of education was to make better citizens, and to educate people, and for this we must have teachers, schools and equipment. Money is necessary. To raise the tax of $1.62 on every $100 would be too hard on most of the taxpayers, so the Bond Issue seemed the only alternative. It is imperative that the Bond Issue be passed, and to substantiate this remark Mr. Kim- berly gave us the following facts:
Baltimore county has built few schools of any consequence since
the war. In 1915 we had
13,000
school children. Today we have 17,500 children in schools. Balti-
three more county needs twenty-one Hilda schools for white children and seven
and schools for the Negroes. It will re-
