Just Horse Talk

Directors Of the New Memphis Jock

rotary Macfarlan was instructed to re-
turn all entrance money to owners who
had made entries to the Derby. Mont"

Since the days when steam power
was utilized for locomotion, the doom
of the horse has been predicted. With
each subsequent invention of appliances
for the help Of locomotion this same
talk has been heard When the first
passenger train ran on rails stage driv-
ers and teamstcrs shook their heads and
sighed for the fate which seemed in
store for the horse. The opposite
proved true. and the demand for the
services Of the horse was increased in
stead of diminished The bicycle was
going to do away with the horse, and
now comes the automobile, and again
is his fate sealed.

Prof. Ford of Ellis tells in the Ellis
paper what the 80 who came here to
see "As you Like It." thought of the
play. He says 1t was evident that
much care had been given the prepara-
ton of the play and that much expense
had been incurred in its production.
The management of the Normal has
hit upon plan that should make the
already popular Western State Normal
better known and put it more thorough
ly in touch with the students and teach
ers of the section of the state from
which it draws its enrolment The
actors in the play were carefully chos-
en- and each played the part assigned
we'll and the Interpretation of the work
was excellent. One of the highest
compliments that can be given to
Prof. Matthew is the statement that
none of the parts were overdone, and
that there was no ''star" actor in the
cast around whom the rest were group
ed In subordination, but each part was
given just its own rightful prominence.

duplicated in several spots in the
audience. Touchstone was wisely fool
ish, and Audrey is to be commended
fer the grace with which she PLAYED
her graceless part. Corin was almost
perfect in his part yet it would seem
that the part hardly calls for so broken
a man. Phoebe seemed hardly to the
manner born, yet made fine counter
felt at fast and loose with the love
lorn Silvius who looked his part better
than he felt it. Every participant in
the play deserves much credit for the
work done in preparation and the
maner of the production and to the
student of Shakespeare, Mr. Matthew
certainly gave some new thought in it's

Normal Notes

= = = : - = y = = ::
Quite a number of new students en-
rolled at the Normal this week.
Four new Type-writers have beer
added to the commercial department.
The baseball team and girls basket
ball team will go to Plainville the first
part of May to play return games with
the High School there
To NORMAL STUDENTS. "A large sup
ply of Type Writing Paper at this Of
flee at cost to students.
The Normal Ladies Basket ball team
went over to Natoma Friday to play a
game with the club there.
After reading Prof. Ford's article
on the entertainment, Normals see why
pete W. looked so Jealous when
Phoebe smiled upon the other fellow.
To accommodate the Normal stud
ents, Mrs. E. R. Cole is furnishing one
of her cottages on West Juniatta to
rent to the lady students and be very
convenient.
Boating is ''pre-ante season. this
kind of weather; but wait until the
balmy spring after moons and the
moonlight evenings come Then the
boats will work over time.
Tom, John and Sherman Miller came
in Thursday evening to attend school
for the remainder of the term. Their
coming helps the baseball prospects
greatly.
The enrolment to date is 267. And
still they come! AS the country
schools close, the teachers pour in to
take advantage of ten weeks Normal
instruction. In attendance to-day 100.
Upon his return from Emporia, Mr..
Picken brought with him contract
calling for two games of ball to be
played at Emporia between our BOYS
and the Normal team of that citv. on
the 24th and 25th of this month.
Here's hoping that the baseball
season will be so successful that the
Athletic Association can afford to erect
a grandstand on our Athletic field.
The present kindling pile cannot ac-
commodate even the fair ''fans" and
its unsightliness spoils ''the scenic
effect of our gridiron and diamond.
The entertainment course for the
year is completed and most numberst
seem to give satisfaction. The Pol
matter Sisters Concert Co., however,
not one OF the course numbers, was
conceded to be the best en-
tertalnment ever given under the ;
