NORMAL NOTES
(From The LEADER

Elmo Meade was commissioned a
lieutenant in France in November.
Lieutenant Meade may truly be
proud of his record as his promotion
came wholly on merit, his rise being
due to work in the ranks from which
he rose with no special officers train
ing. Lieutenant Meade will be re-
membered by former F. H. K. N. stu
dents as being among their number.
Rev. Gerrit Snyder of the Presby-
terrain church of Hays is teaching the
Old Testament History Class former
ly taught by Rev. Rogers, The class
is quite large. 1t meets once a week,
on Monday at p. m. With so SPLEEN
did a Bible student as DR.. Snyder
leading, the class expects much bene-
fit from the course.
Saturday afternoon, January 18th
Mr.. Soderlund invited those people
taking part in the ''wax works" to
go on hike. A group of twelve met
at three o'clock and started toward
the picnic grounds. Some rather thrill
ling experiences were had. Two of
the party event over the top" climb
ing tree on one side of the creek
and descending another tree on the
opposite side. The spectators agreed
that they made good 'human squir-
rels." A portion of the afternoon
was taken up by sham battle with
snow balls. We hesitate to say how
many miles the party walked, but at
intervals on the long journey, they
were refreshed by the contents of an
enormous box of chocolates. On their
return they formed line party at
the show.
The name of Ed Beeby of Hays ap-
peared in a recent casualty list as be-
ing severity wounded, but since Mr..
Beeby's brother here has recently
heard from Ed. It is thought that
there is some mistake about it. He
is with the army of occupation in
Germany and writes that he is in the
best of health. This will be more than
welcome news to Mr.. Beeby's friends.
Assembly officers for the first term
of the second semester were installed
during the regular student assembly
Thursday, January 18th. The retiring
president, Miss Merle Caswell, ad-
ministered the oath and presented the
gavel to Miss Agnes Arlington, the
new presiding officer. The other Off
GERS installed were Mary Norris, first
vice chairman, Martha Harder, Sec
ond vice chairman and Lorena Welty,
Secretary-Treasurer
At assembly last Thursday morn
ing the time was taken up by the
Red Cross girls Of the school. A call
had been made through the Red Cross
for everyone to put in as much time
as possible in the making of garments
for the refugee children of Belgium
and France.
Short talks on this subject made
by Olive Sunderland, Alice Bergland,
Anna Stone, Victoria Unruh and
Merle Caswell were to the point and
fully explained everything that
should be and would be done. They
told of what a worthy cause it was
and urged everyone to do their part.
At the close Of assembly slips of
paper were passed around to be
signed so an estimate could be OBJ
tanned as to how many workers they
would have. Judging from the num-
Der who signed these slips the girls

"Give me your watch 1t was not
a hold up but ''Stag Party" given
by Paul VanDyke and Ivan Grimes
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs H. W
Oshant. The rule of the day was that
no one present should know the time
of night because no one was to go
home before late or rather an early
hour. A certain Freshman "Aca-
dem" got cold feet upon hearing this
and at his first chance slipped away
but was not missed very much
After listening to some very ap-
propriate music on the Victrola and
several hours of sociable card games
in the parlor everyone went to the
hosts room where mental contests
were the role of the evening. A
lunch of Grape Juice and Cakes was
then served after which there was a
story telling contest A toast was
biggest Lie" Samuel Long proved
to be the high scoring contestant.
As all the watches had been chang
ed, no one knew at what hour they
departed. A few were able to get up
for breakfast. Those present were
Bruce Whitney, Karl King, Karl
Knowles, Raymond Knowles, Chas.
Hawkes., William Nelson, Samuel
Long and Ward Harold. Everyone
left feeling that he had been very
highly entertained and wished the
hosts many more such good times
One who was there.
Miss Julia ricketts,, a field secretary
for the Y W. c. A was the guest Of
the Normal Y. W. c. A on Wednes-
day and Thursday. Miss ricketts, came
to US from Denver. She has recent
~ been engaged in New York City IN
social work. She met the girls &C the
cabinet on Wednesday evening IN an
informal way. Various phases of Y.
W. work were discussed for the fur
therance of the Y. w. work here. On
Wednesday evening a special call
meeting was held for all girls in the
school, at which Miss ricketts, spoke
on industrial problems of the day.
Thursday evening the usual devotion
al meeting was held after which a
social hour was held thus giving all
girls an opportunity to come in con-
tact with Miss ricketts, splendid en-
thusiasm which is truly contagious.
