Thanksgiving Greeting Thanksgiving should mean to us individually just what the word it­ self suggests. There is or should be % certain suggestion of humility in attitude of recognition of the larg­ er social forces about us which have contributed to the welfare of indi­ viduals and of peoples of pride in the achievement of worthwhile aims of confidence in our estab?. Ushed institutions and of faith in the dynamics of our-idealism. If you are sensitive to some or to all of these suggestions you are already assured a joyous Thanks­ giving Day. GEORGE H. BLACK, President. A roamer in the dormitory halls at jnidnight would hear vague murmurs of "A little more turkey, please, Ma, and lot?. of cranberry sauce," or "Please, may i have another helping^" No one is breaking rules and having feeds af­ ter hours. It is merely the anticipation 0f Thanksgiving dinner breaking through the dreams. Vacation begins Wednesday, Novem-? ber 23 at noon. President, B^ack states that no leaves will be granted before (I that time on any condition. In order to accommodate students who are going to the coast for the vacation, the Northern Pacific railroad has fgRSd to bold the west bound train from ten o'clock until one. Special rates of a fare and one-third for a round trip are being offered if twenty- five tickets ape bought. Tickets will be on sale in Pamela hf^l brickrooin Tuesday everting after dinner. For those who are spending the va­ cation at the Normal school a gen- nine Thanksgiving dfoqer will te served ii\ t&e dining roona at one o'clook. The room and the tables will be attractively arranged with Thanksgiving decora- w tions. Many of the student teachers from Selah are expect^ to return to W. S. N. S. for the Thanksgiving holidays.

There was a matinee for grade and Normal School students in the afternoon at the Ellepsburg theatre and a more complete sketch for the residents of the town in the evening j^at the Methodist church. The crowd was heard to fairly gasp at intervals as the films were unrolled portraying the bravery of these staunch men who climbed the steep and icy bank of the mountains which had never before been conquered by man. There was a feeling of sympathy ap­ parent in the audience when the tale Of the death of Mallory and Ervine un­ folded. These men had strayed from the party one evening and no one has even seen them since. The quaint customs of the people of Tibet proved very interesting and amus­ ing. The people with their faces with­ ered and dried by the extremes of eli- mate smiled into the photographers lens. In many cases they had never seen a white man before. Their dirty huts #nd strange religious beliefs, some of /Ijiem traveling thousands of miles and Rowing aftef eaefi step in order to reach pome distant shrine, their polyandrous life, where if a wop^n married a 3QaaTJi she had to marry all his brothers, were all shown and explained. To some Captain Noel brought a jnessage conveying new and interesting Information, to others he brought a thrill of adventure, and t© stall others a Spiritual realization.

Marking for maft# Of thejn tt^eir last appearance in a Wildcat uniform, the Ellensburg Normal school football team will meet Spokane University in Wen- atchee on Thanksgiving Day. Assist­ ant Coach Sandberg and the entire squad will leave for the apple city on Wednesday, the short trip being made by auto stage. The game, which will be the bright light of the short Thanksgiving vaca­ tion, is expected by the critics to result in another Wildcat victory. Compara­ tive scores would indicate that Ellens­ burg has the edge, byt everything pos­ sible is being done by the coaches to prevent tfce team entering the game suffering from over-confidence. Scrimmage is being held every night in preparation for the fray, which wil^ afford students the last opportunity to witness their championship team in ac­ tion. While it has been found impossible to secure stages for transportation of students to the game, many are ex­ pected to make the journey in private cars. An Editorial 1$ a race of civilized people, where Christianity and higher liv­ ing a?e generally accepted as com­ mon, ideals, where th,e "Summuxn Bpnum" is the goal of the average dividual,, the earmarks of barbar­ ism and cruelty stupj, manifest them­ selves. Many years ago a few elk were brought into this valley a$d have multiplied until there were great numbers of tame, beautiful crea­ tures among the hills. This year the open season $or hunting came wtfL the most popular spiort for the inhabitants of Kittitas. yffljey was their wholesale slaughter Not for food, either as necessity or delicacy, were they killed, but for the pure love of killing. JFhese animals, tame and unsuspecting after years of pro­ tection, were, tithes without number, shot and left where t^iey fell to rot on the ground. The huntsman went of f pleased with his good luck and proud of his "manly" achieve­ ment. Is this our idea of civilization, of Christianity, of good sportsmanship or even of common intelligence? Let us give thanks that it is not and never will be a generally sanctioned practice and that those who approve and carry out such depredation are pitied and held in contempt by the thinking, feeling citizen. Instructors, Preset a Concert Of Chamber Music ESQUE VSLLEY The name of Kittitas valley is de­ rived from the Indian dialect, being a combination of two words, "kitttt," meaning white chalk, and "tash," liter­ al, place of. In Indian speech, there­ fore, th name really is "place of white chalk." The name was undoubtedly given to the valley because of the qual­ ity of the soil, which when dry in sum- pier, present a white chalky appear­ ance. In the autumn the valley presents its mpst beautiful appeamnpe of the year, wheg the contrast o| the scarlet and gold of the autumn leaves with the golden brown of the hills behind offers » picture w tjie eye. And When autumn gpes winter comes in, fringing with it a host of winter sports, among them skiing, *&*$%&> %nd to­ bogganing. The steep hills about El­ lensburg furnish ample facilities for all sorte of winter sports, Ia# their pnjoyment constitutes the chief recre­ ation of Normal students throughout the winter season. Beautiful Lights to Mark Triangle Ornamental lights are to he installed on the triangle at the intersection of Sampson and Eighth streets, accord­ ing to an announcement given but recently by President Black. Work has not yet begun on the project, but the plans are fully matured, and it is expected that the lights will be install­ ed before Christmas. These ornamental fights will consist of a slender concrete pole topped by a globe of glazed gl^ss* the entire ligfcl tO t* snrmo^te^ by a cap of polished metal, presenting a very pleasiiig appearand It is planed to install three such lights, one at each corner of tfre triangle. At the present time the corner is very poorly lighted and presents a con­ stant menace to traffic, so the lights Will serve a practical as well as an ar- pux^xwe.

This afternoon and evening the all- school play, "Three Live Ghosts,wik be presented by the department of the drama at the Ellensburg theatrb. froli­ cking with humor and mystery, this three-act presentation is expected to be the outstanding dramatic production of the year. According to those who have witnessed rehearsals, the play promises to be an entire success and to set a standard for all succeeding dra­ matic efforts. Rehearsals, under the tutelage of John W. Wright, faculty di- rictor, have been progressing smoothly for a month, and the cast is declared to be letter-perfect. • G. L. Putnam, superintendent of city schools, has agreed to dismiss all grade schools and the high school at three o'clock this, afternoon, giving the stu­ dents a chance to attend the special matinee, which wiil, be presented promptly at 3:15. Teachers will accom­ pany theh" pupils, thus preventing con­ fusion and disturbances. At the evening performance the cur­ tain will rise at 8:15, after which there will be no further seating until after the first act. All indications are that the house will be sold out for both the matinee and evening performances. Many students, by accepting respon­ sibilities, have assisted the cast and the dramatic department is producing a successful pl&y. feessie Lauthhas acted as business manager for the entire pro­ duction. Fred Owen and Evelyn Wight have had charge of collecting proper­ ties. Costuming has been under the di­ rection of Gwendolyn Fairbanks and Olive Rawson. Elsie Hansen has man­ aged school advertising, while Lucy Riphards has served as prompter. Chauncy King, stage manager at the theatre, will be assisted by Lyman Nix­ on m, management of the stage. "Unusual lighting effects will be em­ ployed for the production, which are expected to do much to. strengthen the stage effect of the play. Music will be furnished by the school orchestra, aft-.

Affiliated with Ass't'd Retail Syndicate Buying Power of 189 Stores REDLIN VARIETY STORE Where Quality, Service and Prices Meet If Satisfied Tell Others, If Not Tell Us The recent slaughter of elk through­ out this section of the state has brought the entire game question to the attention of the public. Each year there are more arrests for violation of the game laws, and each year the number of our wild animals is dwind­ ling. Deer, bear, racoon, trout and the wild duck are outstanding ex­ amples of game which has decreased rapidly in numbers in the last few years. More hunters, improved roads, better guns, and better ammunition are some of the causes responsible. Elk, due to years of protection, have increased in this state, but a few more seasons like the one just closed and the elk tod will be just a "former in­ habitant" of Washington. It appears that stricter regulation of hunting and more closed seasons is the only rem­ edy possible for this situation. The closed season upon all varieties of game is opposed by the state gov­ ernment, which derives an income of some thousands of dollars each year from the sale of hunting licenses, and also by the big sporting goods and arms and ammunition companies, since only by the hunting season is their income made possible. No hunting season, no ammunition sold, which is not to the liking of Remington, Western, Peters, and other companies who supply the hunter with his cartridges. And the hunter must have other equipment too, so indirectly almost every sporting goods firm in the country has an in­ terest in the hunting season. Of course the ammunition men are interested in conservation, for if the game were al­ lowed to die out it would be killing the goose that lays the golden egg, but as for a closed season on all game, that is too much of a good thing from their point of view. The fact remains that drastic meas­ ures must be taken if the wild animals of Washington are to be preserved. Kill­ ing for sport can be supported only on very flimsy grounds, and the conten­ tion that game, exclusively of preda­ tory animals, become a nuisance un­ der protection can hardly be proved. The wild animals of Washington are our heritage and our pride, let them be our gift to posterity. TO HIGHER LEVELS Book Reaches Fifth Edition Word has just been receded from the American Book Company, publishers, that the "History of North Dakota," by Fish and Black, is going through its fifth edition, according to Mr. rish, head of the history department here. The book was written two years ago by Mr. Fish, working in collaboration with Mr. Black, President of the North Dakota State Normal school at Ellen- dale, North Dakota. For the past year the work has been employed in the elementary schools of North Dakota as a text-bock of the history of the state. A certain group of educators main­ tain education is cultural development. Be that as it may, it is undisputed that culture comes with an education of the kind most desired. The following edi­ torial which appeared in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer points out the for­ ward progress of the country as a whole toward this goal and shows one of the means of its further growth. Piano Brings Culture to Home. Observers profess to see evidences of a groping desire of America's masses for culture. Crowds before baseball scoreboards, throngs paying millions to see ring fights, give at least superficial refutation to their argument. There are, however, unmistakable proofs of a rudimentary grasp of the meaning of the higher life. Good homes, good clothing, even tooth brushes, have a deeper significance than mere show and personal hygiene. We are getting the peat smoke out of our eyes and looking around a broader landscape, bounded by loftier horizons. Movies of the better sort leave an un­ conscious impress quite apart from the story. They inspire a love of the beau­ tiful, which is the beginning of all art. The phonograph and radio demon­ strate what music can be, as well as what it ought not to be. They work for discrimination and appreciation. Left alone, these might operate against a mass culture by giving us a nation of listeners. But, fortunately, other agencies are at work toward the end of participation. The last ten years in the United States have witnessed amazing strides in interest in singing. Zeal to become instrumentalists, much of it misdirected, has left a net result for good. It is perhaps the renaissance of the piano to which we must look for our most solid and stable sense of direction. The piano is the perfect home instru­ ment. Complete in itself, an art entir­ ety, it offers a medium of expression for the complete range of musical gen-, ius. In offering free lessons which will turn the mere listener into a superb avenue of self-expression, the Post-In­ telligencer believes it is making a gen­ uine contribution to the cultural de­ velopment of the Northwest.

This comes in ac­ cordance with an agreement between the United States and France and Will lower considerably the tariff on certain imported American products. The recent floods in Massachusetts and Vermont have subsided with loss of life and great property damage. Secretary Hoover made a trip through the flooded areas indicating things that could be done to fill the needs of the people. The White House, although over a hundred years old has been appraised with its surrounding grounds at $22,- 000,000. It ranks third of all govern­ ment buildings, the Capitol building and the Congressional Library being the only two of greater value. Viscount Cecil recently made a speech to the House of Lords in which he said that the refusal of the British at the Geneva conference to be placed on a mathematical parity in naval strength jgrtth the United States pre­ vents any hope of further agreement along that line between the two coun­ tries. He severely attacked the Brit­ ish attitude towards disarmament. Ruth Elder, the unsuccessful trans- Atlantic flyer, has signed a contract with the Loew Vaudeville interests. She is to receive $1,000 a day for her ap­ pearances on their circuit.. Bogoslof Island of the Aleutian group has moved four miles for its previous­ ly chartered position. It has changed in contour a number of times but it was not known until recent observa­ tions that it had moved. This is prob­ ably due to submarine disturbances at the bottom of Bering Sea. —Dept. of History. Miss Dawn Kennedy Takes Mother East On account of the serious illness of her mother, Miss Dawn Kennedy has found it necessary to accompany her to the Mayo Clinic at Rochester, Minn­ esota. During Miss Kennedy's absence, which is expected to be of severe! weeks' duration, the work of the art depart­ ment is under the direction of Miss Jean Dorrel, assisted by Miss Pauline Johnson and Miss Jennie Moore. Faculty Members Address Teachers Two members of the faculty of the El­ lensburg Normal school were speakers at the Benton county teachers institute, held at Kennewick last week. Mr. Sparks of the department of education spoke on two different occasions, one of his addresses being entitled, "What the Community Demands of its Schools, and the other, "What the School Has Learned From the Com­ munity." Mr. Fish, head of fthe department of history here, spoke to the teachers on "Education for Citizenship." Much of Mrs. Fish's work at the institute con­ sisted of explaining to the teachers the new courses of history for the elemen­ tary schools of the state, as outlined by the state committee on History Teach­ ing, of which Mr. Fish is chairman. This committee, appointed by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction several years ago, has published a re­ vision of history courses for grade schools which was initiated into the state educational system during the past year. This week Mr. Fish expects to attend the Adams county teachers institute at Ritzville on Monday and Tuesday, to acquaint the pedagogues with further details of the new history program. On Wednesday he will be in Yakima on the same errand, at the Yakima county teachers institute. Thursday Mr. Fish expects to be in El­ lensburg for Thanksgiving dinner.

Miss McMorran acted as leader of a party of American college girls who were the guests of European students abroad this summer. •The party was one of a number sponsored by the In­ ternational Student Hospitality As­ sociation in Paris for the purpose of fostering international frie n d s h i p among college students. Miss McMoran summarized their travel policy in the old proverb "When in Rome do as the Romans do" and reported amusing in­ cidents connected with their attempts to adopt temporarily European table etiquette and other customs. French courtesy was found to be far more than a mere tradition. In Bea- ancon the party met a young French student who accompanied them to Geneva. He had announced his inten­ tion to leave on a certain train, but postponed his departure for1 twenty- four hours when he discovered the American girls inaccessible to receive his formal farewells. "What," said he, "would you have thought of French courtesy had I returned to my home without saying goodbye?" Geneva the party found to be a be­ wildering array of interesting person­ alties, seething with ideas. Few cities can boast so long, and uninterrupted a peace as Geneva. Not since 1602 has the city borne arms. Its position as the center of the movement for world peace is therefore well-earned. Miss McMor- ran's group were privileged visitors at the League of Nations and at the In ternational Labor Bureau, and were addressed by various members of the Secretariat who explained the organi­ zation and functions of the various bodies of the League. Much interest and some dismay were expressed by friends of the League concerning the Pan-European Union which may re­ place the League on account of the present policy of the United States. Among the unusual people drawn to Geneva this summer because of its character as an international center, none attracted the American girls more than a group of Austrians from a small community near Vienna. Because of the extreme poverty of the Austrians since the World War, a group of col­ lege trained, professional young men and women sought a solution of their economic problems in the founding of this small social group, self-supporting and independent of the rest of toe world. In the interests of economy, freedom, and cleanliness they adopted the costume of the Youth Movement, trunks and sleeveless blouses for the men, flowing peasant dresses for the women, and leather sandals, worn without stockings. They are vegeter- lans and total abstainers from alcohol and tobacco. They devote themselves to gardening and craft work which of-' fer both support and enjoyment since it is a part of their philosophy that all they do, in so far as possible, must be a source of joy to themselves. For that reason they have refused to accept large orders for their hand-work Other ple^ures which they pursue are those of photography, folk-dancing So? literature» and puppetry. Miss McMorran showed a pair of their hand-puppets which she had brought bafck with her. She said it was particu- lariy important that these people should be thought of, not as fanatics in any sense of the word, but as cultivated people, intellectual above the average, who would have been happy to pursue more traditional lives had a great na­ tional calamity not forced them to some such plan as this. Another interesting figure was a young adventurer whose biography would make some of the Arabian Nights seem tame, A geographer by profession, eager to continue his trav- but, like his countrymen, quite without funds, he persuaded some scientific society to send him on a hunt for butterflies in Abyssinia. It was of small matter to him that but­ terflies are a minus quantity in Abys­ sinia. He passed through a series of experiences, including that of being robbed by desert bandits and the ne­ cessity of acquiring funds in a strange and hostile country. Always resource­ ful, he began a street entertainment consisting of the Austrian folk songs and dances he had learned as a mem­ ber of the Youth Movement at home. So great was his success that he was invited by the ruler of Abyssinia to give a court performance for which he was rewarded with a caravan to continue his travels. He arrived back in Austria penniless and ragged, but utterly happy and alert for further ad­ venture. Perhaps he will come to Am­ erica to hunt antelope! On the whole, Miss McMorran found European students very friendly and eager to know more of America and Americans.' There are many things about our college life which they can­ not understand, but they are tolerant even when they are mystified. Two things which surprise them most are our great diversity of courses and the restrictions concerning class attend­ ance and hours. "Do you really live altogether in great houses and have to be inside at ten-fifteen?" they ask­ ed incredulously. When their Jlpst suspicions were confirmed, they sflpg- ged their shoulders and said, "Dread­ ful!" Sometimes we think so too, and since Miss McMorran's lectures the au­ thorities begin to fear an exodus of our students to European institutions! of their comrade those that are left are telling the story by applying green to all spots of doubtful lineage. Olive green, love-bird green, emerald green, and jade are the tombstones to mark the downfall of a noble yet conquered soul. But the work goes on neverthe­ less the sliding, tumbling, paint mix­ ing, increases in fervor and magnitude. And some day there will be a curtain of rare design and brilliance rising above the bespattered stage. Before many moons are lost, the jugs and muf­ fin tins will be scattered the stacks of brown paper will be condemned to the fiery furnaces, and the survivors will gaze upon their handwork and justly be proud. The Little Art Theatre! —Frances Cox. FUTURISTIC CURTAIN FLOURISHES IN ATTIC Midnight Charge of the Hungry Brigade Those who have been up in the Lit­ tle Art Theatre during the past two weeks have probably noticed some strik­ ing changes that are under way. The outstanding feature which greets the eye is the curtain, upon which futuris­ tic designs are being depicted in blazing colors. All the painting throughout the theatre is a project of the Art classes. The hangings and lamp shades are to be designed in black and white, some very clever sketches employing the sil­ houetted of men and animals being used in this connection. The entire work of decoration and furnishing been undertaken under the direction of the Art, and Home Economics de­ partments. Hustling and bustling, slapping paint on here and there, the art majors slip and slide about on the gaily decorated stage. With muffin tins, crockery jars, pans, pots, and jug's in their hands, they cock critical eyebrows at this im­ pressionistic curtain of their creation. Alas and alack! The black is too dark the green is too blue whereupon the ambitious ones apply another stream of calcimine to the needy spots. Back and forth they weave, pushing each other down into the little zinc gutter where the footlights struggle against extinc­ tion. Now on their knees, the aesthetic souls humbly work on, only to discover upon rising that their two dollar silk hosiery has appropriated all the indi­ vidual touches of an Btoster egg. Or, while stepping back to observe the ef­ fect of the red and purple in the spectrum, the little brown jug in the painter's hand loses is dignity as it spouts forth a stream of orange on the I cupbearer's immaculate trousers. Crest­ fallen, the subject of such extrava­ gance, dashes about trying to remove the blotches. At last, in despair, he wraps a great piece of brown paper about him, flees from the room and sails down the hall. Nor does he appear again today, which causes his fellow artists to believe that he is spending the time in bed while his roommate operates on the trousers, so cruelly af­ flicted with German measles. At last when the class bell rings forth its final peal, the embryo Mich­ ael Angeloes step back of one accord and gaze lovingly upon their work. A mask of blue with an ear of the unlucky orange peers at them from the left. A tassle dangling from his chin gives him the aspect of a creature whose mouth, is. in deed and in truth, a trap. Below this freak and just across from it, is the puppet show, a happy creation of figures that would delight the heart of any child. Next in order is a mask of that tawny color that Ameri­ cans imagine those savage, African lions sport. Little slanting lines cause the face to resemble the monarch of the forest in the mood that just fol­ lows a juicy meal. Other masks done in reds and caricaturing Satan himself, stare down upon the little group of spectators. A great white-lipped, ban­ danna swathed face, grins vacantly. A regular Valley of the Kings done in pyramids with black faces peering from unexpected crannies, looms up for at­ tention. A little Diack lady boldly poses against the colors reflected by the great spot-light in the upper left hand cor­ ner. "Holy Smoke!" groans a soul in de­ spair as he discovers that he has been leaning against a bucket dripping witn brilliant green calcimine. "Hey, give me a piece of that wrapping paper." Blotting it off in primitive fashion, the dyed one strides from the room. Observed by others he is not merely deemed as another of "these poor goofs afflicted with an artistic kink." No, the wretched fellow is led to the head of the psychology department where he is speedily given an intelligent 3 test. Tragic though it may seem, he is un­ able to decide whether K is sourer than N, or whether A is sweeter tfran Tg As a result the harassed soul, whose I. Q. proves him to be of decidedly low standing, is rushed from the Normal lest his greeness contaminate his asso­ ciates. And in commemoration of the fate A Board Bill Presses to To pay or not to pay, that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of an uneasy conscious, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles ' And by paying end them. To pay, sleep At least and by that sleep we end The heartache and the thousand natural shocks That unpaid debts bring with them— 'tis a condition Devoutly to be wished. To pay, to 1 sleep— Ta sleep, perchance to dream, and in the dream To see such bettering of our business state That upon awakening determination doth make real our dream. And free from all encumbering debts we start anew But first lets pay. Skinny Tots Grow Under Expert Care Clad in gray woolen robes with caps attached, the children of tjie fresh air class at Washington school were re­ ceiving the best of care when the phy­ sical education majors , visited there recently. The windows were open and it was decidedly cool. Practically au those children are underweight and of a nervous disposition. They are segregated from the others because they can handle only about half the studies of the average child. "It takes a great deal of patience and trained ability to work with these sensitive children," said Miss Hansen, teacher of the class. Scientific feeding and rest are com­ bined with the fresh air in the treat­ ment of these twenty children. At 10 o'clock each day crackers and ™nir are served. At luncheon, which is at twelve o'clock, each child furnishes sandwich­ es and fresh vegetables are furnished by the school. Cota and blankets appear directly af­ ter lunch and the children have an hour of sleep. Practice teaching may be had there for physical education .majors. This has been made possible by President Black, and is considered an exceptional opportunity and a wonderful experience. In the wee hours of the night ax alarm shrills forth its cheery notes of insomnia'. A blink, a groan, a mutter­ ed note of uncomplimentary inton&< tion and out of bed issues a disgruntlec dreamer. Over chairs, study table, andj wastepaper basket she lurches to the furthermost corner of the cell where the brave little disturber is waxing warm in its morning greeting. A mere! twist, and with a final splutter, the- serenader is murdered in cold bloodJ - Then with a last longing bestowal of [ affection upon her erstwhile sleeping spot, the morning lark shakes heif | room-mate, who, with a pillow pressed | tightly over her ears, slumbers oil •: "Six-thirty! Six-thirty! Wake upt i Gotta hurry to get in line!" j [ Vaulting across the room in leaps. leaving in their wake a cyclonic effect the two dash hither and thither, col- lecting wash cloths off radiator, soap from window ledge, tooth brashes from! ji their lodging places, under bed, dress-1 er or feet. Out of the room they dasfci arms closed tightly around a host , at $ articles that decrease in number as ail ? racing by, selects its victims. A dash of cold water, a resolution [ to let the tooth brush recline on it* i hook that day in peace, and back to! the room with dripping countenances \ they fly, passing other sleep walkers in mad haste lest they be outstripped in[ speed and place in line. [ Five minutes later, again they issttcj: forth applying combs to flying locks! Down the stairs they rush in leaps and! bounds. Hearing another side door bang loudly, they again dash forward . in alarm lest the coveted place of high rank be lost. Much to their relief thei noise proves only to be a snore finding its origin in the north wing of ti&ti floor of Kamola. With pounding heart: the would-be leaders of the procession hurry around the corner. Down sink their hearts as their hopeful eyes gaze upon a line leading halfway back tc the sidewalk. And so they join the shivering, shud- dering, blue-lipped procession that awaits at the door of Sue Lombard at dawn each day. Funeral procession if is, for once the frozen mob surges fni death unto tanks of steaming coffee, mountains of bacon, sliced toast carloads of puffed air. Such allusions to the cafeteria board cause many a moan as from the left to the right pedal extremities the re­ spective beings lunge in heart-breaking: misery. Occasionally some poor soul departs in haste for "Straight's" white others have to be carried away to the1 infirmary in a condition of nervous dyspepsia. The mob is increasing in size and weakness, when in anger the door flies open and in the perishing mortals storm. By the time the two girls are jammed in there lies. a deadly determination to'camp on the door step that night. After a seemingly endless line dis­ perses, the girls with faltering steps, but strangely brilliant eyes, reach the goal of stomach's desire. Alas! The coffee tank is empty, the toast is burn­ ed, only dried prunes remain. Out heroines fall in a merciful swoon in oblivion they feast on ambrosia H peacock's tongues. a Alas, all dreams flit by, and theirs is no exception! Opening their eyes, they behold the doctor bending oyer them. "A case of indigestion. Eat nothing today." Over the borderline slip two spirits, departed, conquered, and beaten. And those who are left still wonder why. FRANCES COX £. B. WILSON GO. Established MM Dc-Litc Hosiery - The new service Chiffon Hose with the fancy high point heel. Popular fall shades—8% to 10.

Understand thoroughly the fol­ lowing and you will be appreciative of your opportunity to take it. These were obtained from an interview with Miss Grupe. Psychology is basic in understanding behavior. It i$ through this phase of experi­ mentation that one is able to analyze behavioy. It pries into the processes through which people learn, thereby finding the most economical methods of learning. It measures character. It tests intelligence. It measures the traits which are ac­ quired. It helps one in choosing a vocation. It is used largely in industry. . Psychological tests are being used more and more as they are being per­ fected. The Stenquist Mechanical Ability test evaluates ones ability in mechani­ cal work. The Seashore Music Test which is be­ ing given to students at the Training school measures the musical ability of an individual as early as ten years of age. There is even a test for taxi cab driv­ ers. Psychology gets at the* causes of things thereby permitting one to find a way to remedy defects. , A person with tuberculosis cannot be cured if treated for appendicitis. It helps one to understand the child and educate him accordingly. It hais done away with mass teach­ ing, making room for the individual. It puts teaching on a scientific basis. It makes teaching more economical and efficient. It piles into the nature of individuals making it much easier to teach that individual. Let's hit psychology a Little harder and gather a little reality out of Its mtf&teries. Interest in club activity is running high in the Training school since all but three of the 186 pupils in the Junior high belong to at least one of the 14 clubs. Ukelele, Dramatic, Orchestra, Arch­ ery, Industrial Arts, Camera, Harmon­ ica, Tennis, Glee Club for boys and girls, Boy Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, Tumbling, Motion Pictures and Science Club—a wide field is offered to each child. The boys and girls are urged to join two clubs in the belief that citizenship through the action and par­ ticipation will be developed. Music is "taught free to any pupil wishing- to take it. Free lessons are given on any instrument. At present there are thirteen taking lessons on the violin, five on horns, seven oh drums, one on base viol, one on cello, four on guitar, eight on ukelele and seven on the harmonica. Joseph Trai- npr is giving private lessons on the violin and Don Baker on the drums.

Yellow, green, purple, and blue what do they all mean to you? There are several different conceptions of what varying colors mean. Generally white stands for purity and cleanliness, yel­ low for light or wisdom and sometimes for gayety and cheer. Orange signifies fire and warmth, while red stands for war, violence or love. Green is sympplic of life or abun­ dance of growth, while blue is for truth, Constance and endurance. With purple gods the ideia of shadows, sorrow, pas- soriate love, or regality, and gray de­ notes quietness or sombreness, retire­ ment and sorrow. Black has always meant sorrow and ignorance. There are other meanings for these colors, take for distance when one thinks of a Frosh he lables him as green not because of his vivacity or abundance of growth, but usually be­ cause of freshness, newness,or maybe in- nocense. Yellow is sometimes also used to denote cowardliness, but if it is so used one must be sure that his voice will convey the correct meaning or the person may understand you to mean that he is wise. According to Miss Dawn Kennedy, art supervisor, all colors are good it is the way they are "used together that makes, or takes away from their effect­ iveness. The artist who can use the best comb^atipn of colors is the most suc­ cessful. Nature, however, cannot be ex­ celled in this respect, she has given color to everything: trees, mountains, animals, human beings, even to the corduroy pants that the boys wear for :thi*ee months withput washing. Color enters into every one of our industries the manufacture of colors and dyes for commercial and artistic purposes is in itself a great industry. It is in everything abput you, bootaS, clothes, furniture, and even in the foods you eat. Some of the girls, how­ ever, did not get enough from nature, and are therefore forced to buy theirs at the drug store* If one should take the color out of everything about him what would he have left? Frpipably it has never been brought to. light, but color is one of the meet important factors in our life.

CAMPUS CRIEB Page Fivfl DAME FASHION WANTS TO BECOME SENSIBLE "What to wear and what not to wear." Interesting information so dear to the heart of a girl Was given by ftjiss Jean Dorrel, of the Home Eco­ nomics department, m a recent in­ terview. The informal dance is the most puz­ zling occasion to most girls. Miss Dorrel says, "The wearing of last year's formal dresses at the Friday and Sat- .urday night dances appears to be bad style to the observer. It would be much better if a dress of informal style were worn, but this does not mean school clothes or informal sport outfits." Regarding the line, Miss Dorrel ex­ plains that some individuals can wear stripes and triangular effects but it is best to be sure before choosing them. The same is true of bright colors. The girl inclined to be stout should avoid the wearing of stripes, triangles, bright colors, and too short dresses. The coat or rough sweater is ap­ propriate for campus wear but when seen at social functions it indicates that the wearer is either neglectful of his or her appearance or assumes that the occasion does not demand much at­ tention. We should remember that our week end dances are not every day affairs. Those who have had or are taking Health Education know, that high heeled shoes are not to be worn on the campus. With Thanksgiving vacation so near we are concerned with what we shall wear when traveling. According to Miss borrel, a dark suit or dress is al­ ways good for travel in car or train. The costume is satisfactorily complet­ ed by tailored hat, coat, gloves, low heeled walking shoes and service weight hose.: Neither sweaters nor extreme sport clothes are worn by the well dressed woman while traveling. Although jewelry is dear to woman's heart she must remember it does not complete a tailored costume. In fact very little jewelry should be worn on any occasion. J SPEAKS THE KING'S A NATION-WIDE INSTITUTION- OUR SILVER YEAR OUR 25° YEAR 'where savings are greatest •:rr- • PRESENTING r. Dr. Munson Dr. Munson is one of the oldest mem­ bers in point of service of the faculty, having been head of the department of Biology at the Ellensburg State Normal school since 1899- During that time his services to science have been monumental, and today he is widely known as one of the leading biologists of the world. After an elementary education in the common schools of Illinois, Dr. Munson studied at Northwestern Uni­ versity and the University of Wiscon­ sin, where he took his master's degree. The degree of Doctor of Philosophy was conferred upon him by the Uni­ versity of Chicago in 1897, and two years later he came to Ellensburg. Dr. Munson lectured at both the seventh and eighth International Zoo­ logical Congresses, held at Boston and Graz, Austria, respectively. He has contributed many articles to leading scientific journals, and has traveled ex­ tensively in foreign lands, studying at Christiania, Naples and Berlin Dr. Munson is a member of many of the world's foremost scientific societies, and is universally recognized as a leader in the field of natural science. The scene is the recreation room of the men's dormitory. About a hundred men lounge about in attitude of ease, some sitting in arm-chairs and on davenports, some leaning against the walls, a few sitting on the floor. Many are smoking, and there is much loud talking. A house meeting is about to convene. Adolph "Swede" Lindquist, President of the house organization, stands at the head of the room. Farther back, leaning against a window sill in his usual attitude of easy nonchalance, is Mr. Sandberg. Swede fingers his notes and is about to speak. Chairman: "Silence, youse guys!" The hubbub gradually dies, although there is much whispering and talking in low tones. Chairman: "The question is whether we're going to buy corsages for the Snow Ball or not. Some of you guys want 'em, and some of yuh say they're not so hot. Now whadda yuh want?" Everybody speaks at once. Those at the rear of the room shout to attract the chairman's attention, those near­ er to him even go so far as to pluck at his arms that he may grant them the floor. Chairman: "Shut up, youse guys! Wottinell do you think this is?" Mr. Sandburg cat-foots to the chair and proceeds to pour parliamentary procedure into Mr. Lindquist's snowy white ear. At length the noise subsides. Adolph Roth, sitting directly in front of the chair, springs to his feet. Roth: "Mr. Chairman!" Chairman: "Mr. Roth has the floor. Pipe down, the rest of yuh!" Roth: (Speaking in impassioned tones) "It's just this way gang. Do we want to have a real formal, or just a jitney dance? If we're going to have a formel, let's buy corsages and do it right. We only have one real formal a year, so let's not make a jitney dance out of it." Mr. Roth sits down among mingled cheers and cat-calls. Someone makes a motion that corsages be purchased. Someone else seizes the floor and de­ livers an impromptu oration as follows: "Sure we want corsages, but can we afford it? It's gonna t ost a lot of hard-earned john for every guy to buy a coupla flowers for the hag he's drag­ ging to the affair, or for the hag that's draggin' him, however it is, so I say let's lay off the decorations." Again the room is in uproar. Every­ one voices an opinion at the top of his lungs. Chairman: (Jumping up and down and waving his arms excitedly) "Shut up, for the love of mud, shut up!" Finally the motion is put to a vote, and carried. So they decide to buy cor­ sages, and the meeting is adjourned. who usually has a roommate who class­ ifies in the other groups. Tnat night when a group has gathered to discuss the finds for the evening she confesses that her timidity was too overwhelming and anyway this isn't leap year. How­ ever, she accidently lets slip who she would like to ask but—well, just but. The next night at the library she finds the "true and genteel knighte" sitting next to her. She looks up, lowers her eyes, he does likewise. After a while the date is made and we just wonder how friend roommate managed it all. v- DELICIOUS PASTRIES And Buns for Picnics and Hikes Dean of Women Is Convalescing Mrs. Ilene Compton, dean of women, was taken to the hospital last Wednes­ day night to undergo an operation for appendicitis. The operation was entirely successful, and students will be glad to hear that Mrs. Compton is on the road to recovery. She is rapidly improving and doubtless will be able to resume her duties within a few days. Two Orchestras Provide Music Students Welcome In Our Kitchen THE UNITED BAKERY CHAS. K.

In addition to the dance orchestra there is a concert orchestra composed of student players. Anyone who owns an instrument is eligible to play. In this manner school talent is utilized, and people who real­ ly love music and enjoy taking part in worth-while- productions have an opportunity to make the most of their abilities. Either organization is al­ ways willing to play for school affairs, provided they are given a reasonable advance notice. DELUXE SERVICE STATION of the Wallace Johnson Motor. Co. Miss Eleanor Hale Highly recommended from the Uni­ versity of Washington is M*ss Eleanor Hale who comes to Ellensburg this year as assistant in the music department. Miss Hale graduated from Lincoln high school in Seattle and spent four years as a music major at the University. Although she has been here only a short time Miss Hale has won the ad­ miration and respect of all who know and work with her. When asked why she came here in pursuit of her profession she replied. "Because I love the country and hav­ ing friends, it seems like home." Al­ though her home is in Seattle her pref­ erence of country and climate lies east of the mountains. Until her last experience with horses Miss Hale's interests leaned towards horseback riding. In her own words: "My favorite pastime was horseback riding until the last time, after which I found myself unable to climb the stairs. Perhaps after a few more at­ tempts I shall be able to master the art and enjoy it as much as formerly." Miss Hale says she enjoys her work very much, not only because she has always been interested in Normal school projects but. also because of the contact with her students. The Way of a Maud With a Man Told There are tricks in every trade. It is most interesting to watch the devices used in making dates, praticularly no­ ticed in the library one night when dates for the Snowball were in process of being made. They can be generally classified un­ der these methods: First—the bold undaunted girl with a gleam of possession in her orbs arises and without hesitation firmly seats herself across from the object in ques­ tion. We didn't hear the conversation but when she arises again she still has that undefeated air about her. We won­ dered how he possibly could have re­ fused, but he probably didn't want to. Second—is a girl neither shy nor overly bold, just mediocre. She lets her eye roam over prospective customers and finally rests them on one parti­ cular one. At that psychological mo­ ment he looks up and sfie, as she men­ tioned before, not being too Priscilla- like, does not remove them. The process is repeated at intervals and finally the empty seat across from her is taken her eyes no longer roam. The date is made and the program started. Last, there is the shy little thing (of course it's possible that she is large) Operated by Former Normal School Stvdents ((«((«** A Good Place-To Bank The Washington National Bank PERFECT WAVING Exquisitely perfect marcelling, hair waving, permanent wav­ ing and hair cutting.

' *-• Page Six CAMPUS GEKEBR Choose Escorts For First Formal Party Of Season The biggest all-important question on the tongues of every student these days is "who's your date for the Snow Ball?" The Snow Ball, the first for­ mal of the year will be given Decem­ ber 3 in the dining-room of Sue Lom­ bard Hall by the girls of Kamola Hall and Sue Lombard Hall. Ideas for turning an otherwise prac­ tical looking dining- room into a fairy­ land of snow and winter are now oc­ cupying the minds of the decoration committee,, Catherine Nichols, chair­ man Margaret Carlot, June Lock- wood, Mary Desmond, Helen Bowman and Bessie Lauth. The music committee, Barbara Mac- Donald, chairman Betty Crosby and Janet Barclay, investigated into facts about the different orchestras in tows* and presented them to the house meet­ ings at both halls for a vote. It was decided that Herbison's orchestra would furnish the music for the affair. Betty Maxson, Lucile Cheney, Wilma Brennen and Helen Emerson compos­ ing the publicity committee are mak­ ing gay posters to adorn the bulletin boards of the campus. Unique programs are being worked out by the program and invitation com­ mittee. Marie Dickinson, chairman Roberta Lynch and Marguerite Wood. Another committee, which promises much but has not as yet given out their plans, is the refreshment com­ mittee, Neva and Wava Clark and Lauretta Ridout. Students Enjoy Winter W? : 'V • SlPUw WHEEL OF ATHLETICS FORENSIC FOOTBALL ENDS IN DRAW Rich Peterson's Tea Hounds and Joe Cote's Lounge Lizards played, prayed, plodded, and argued to 7-7 tie in a practice football game on the Rodeo field Friday afternoon. By the way, there wasn't so much praying. The teams were about evenly match-' ed, except that "Hummy" Stromberg's gift of cheerful repartee gave the Tea Hounds a little the edge when it came to debate. And there was plenty of de­ bate, in fact there was so much talk­ ing that most of the time spectators were in doubt as to whether they were witnessing a football game or a meet­ ing .of the Ladies* Aid. But then the language didn't sound like the Ladies' Aid. The field was just a trifle damp, and very sticky—oh, quite sticky! In fact it was so sticky that when Ray Jensen came down the field we were in doubt as to whether the approaching object was a football player or a snow plow in a mud-hole. But the boys didn't mind. In fact, Adolph Roth said he hadn't had so much fun since the days when as a child (?) he construct­ ed mud-pies. But that is just Mr, Roth's sunny manner! Anyway it was a good game. Mr. Cote's aggregation appeared to have the edge in weight, but on the other b«rri a girl on the side-lines was heard to remark thai there were a lot of fast men among the Tea Hounds. And while a lot of dirt was thrown by both sides, all disputes were settled amicably, and both teaius plodded from the field covered with mud and glory. "Rhythm is the cog wheel of athletics," said Harold W. Quigley, heaii coach, in an interview recently. "Every game of the sport world hinges on the proper inducement of rhythm into the ma­ chine." The game of football reigns supreme in the necessity for well-balanced, bodily action. Each player must be well drilled in rhythm before a team can be outstanding. Any team can be of the average type but a great team must have coordina­ tion, proper timing of plays, a sense of rhythm. Coordination and team work are the secondary stages of rhythmic expression. If a team has that essential knack of timing its plays it also has coordination. An end or guard travelling down the gridiron at top speed must be able to drive off his feet at the proper moment. If he fails to time his run with the distance and height of a kick he is lacking in a sense of rhythm. An end must have the ability to judge distance and speed or his services to a team are liabilities rather than assets. Tackling requires the greatest of all muscle coordination. The body must be tease and toned to the piteh where the ryhthm of muscles works automatical­ ly. When driving toward the ball car­ rier the tackier must be cautious of any unexpected maneuver on the part of the man carrying the ball. The tackier must leave his feet with all the leg drive possible and make sure of hia tackle. Improper timing in a tackier is the outgrowth of lack of rhythm and muscle coordination. Rhythm of action must be behind every movement. Proper bodily action is the reward of athletes who train and strive for that essential goal. CLEANLINESS IS COSTLY AT KAMOLA Efforts of the Crimson W club to pro­ vide the most successful dance of the year were crowned with success Satur­ day night, when the dance honoring the football men was held in the gym­ nasium- Good music, good crowd, good arrangements, and the spirit of the oc­ casion all combined to make the affair the outstanding dance of the season. The gym was appropriately decorated in crimson and black, and the football motif was carried through the entire program. Dance programs were made out on the floor, a change which had been announced earlier in the week by Wesley Ruble, President of the Crimson W club. It was previously in­ tended to make the dance a formal af­ fair, with programs arranged in ad­ vance, but as it was feared that such an arrangement would place an air of restraint upon the occasion, it was changed to allow a purely informal dance. Music was furnished by the Night- hawks, local orchestra, aqd dancing was from 8:30 to 11:30.

Boys to Scrub and Dust For Reception " "It wont be long now," before the boys will have to start scrubbing and cleaning to get ready for the open house social hour to be held at their home on the afternoon of De­ cember 10, 1927. If the girls at Sue Lombard see a cloud of duet issuing forth from the window of room 307, they shouldn't turn in the fire alarm, because it will be only Swede Lindquist giving his rood it's annual cleaning. The program for the day has not been definitely arranged but there will be a tour through the rooms, and a social hour- The social committee hzs not decided as yet whether tiddiey- winks or ring around the rosy, will be played. This may be a little strenuous for the faculty members, in which event they will probably be allow to cut paper dolls or indulge in smm mUder farm of amusement. However, a good time Is assured all .those who will attend, and the social fcQBSZB!Rw6 TOvRltin everyone. Be it morning, noon or night that an industrious soul sails into the laundry room of Kamola Hall, the same greet-1 ing awaits her. Clouds of steam en­ shroud her upper regions while her pedal extremities tread the sudsy, slip­ pery waters. Fair damsels bend over tubs and with turkish towels over their faces are in the process of acquiring new "perman­ ent." A shriek of "Oh, I've steamed my ear off!" pierces the haze as some be-Sewed lady gently caresses the rosy member that is th ecause of her woe. Other toilers are wearily applying the Naptha to smocks, dresses and whatnots, gorgeously tinted with all the hues of the cm-tain in the Little Theatre. Complaints of the following type are emitted: "Believe me, here's one person who's not going to take art next quarter if she has to stand on a ladder and let Lyman Nixon splash cal­ cimine to the four winds. Wish he had to rub this thing for three hours!" Or approach an ironing board and politely inquire if you may use it after the present occupant has completed her mountainous task. "Why I promised it to her after I was through," pointing to a fair young thing holding an arm-full of articles that men should not ask about. And when you approach the young lady in question she mutely directs you to an­ other lass standing guard over a pile of apparel on the table. Anh when she points to yet another, you pause a moment in despair and then flee the place. Born in your heart is a deep determination to wear your clothes un­ touched by soap and water forever- more.
