Advice to New Teachers
Given GoIdfeather Group

When she spoke on Personality
and the New Teacher" Thursday
evening in Starkweather Hall at
the Goldfeather meeting Mrs. Mabel
l.. Bentley, OF the Horace H. Rack:
ham School of Social Education
staff, said that the new teacher
should take an active part in the
affairs OF the community in which
she is teaching. Goldfeather is the
organization or Michigan State
Normal College campus sponsored
by the Womens League for sopho-
more women.
Mrs. Bentley said that it is wise
for the new teacher TO join some
church, social, or civic group.
She advised the prospective
teachers to consider each pupils
background, in order to obtain the
best results from each student.
Such things as an unhappy home
life, neglect. or even too much
care will make the child a special
student, one to whom must be
given special attention.
The speaker believes that school
should provide a chance for self
expression. and. therefore, the
teacher should not attempt to do
all the talking.
BE on the lookout for abno.-
malities," Mrs. Bentley advised.
She asked that those planning TO
be teachers take a positive rather
than a negative attitude towards
their work. II not a success right
at the start, she said the teacher
should sit down and take stock
OF herself. Mrs. Bentley listed
personality, a good voice. and tact
as essentials for successful
teacher. -
Miss Mabel Hard. Addison. presi-
dent OF Goldfeather, presided over
the meeting, and announced that
someone from the Ypsilanti State
Hospital will speak at the next

Miss Martha Best
Describes Passion
Play For MethodistS

The First Methodist Married
Peoples Class was entertained
Thursday evening at dinner by Miss
Martha Best who described the
Passion Play as she saw 1t in ODER
ammergau in 1880.
After attending mass each day
the performers did not talk for the
rest Of the day except to give their
lines in the play, and the hours
were long. eight hours with two
hours intermission at noon, she
said. Every second day the play
was given through the season. Peo-
pie arrived the night before so
that there should not be any con-
fusion OF leaving or entering the
town while the play was in prog
ress, and II was easy TO believe
that in 1884 when this spectacle be-
gan that the plague ceased and the
country remained free OF the
scourge. In the mob scene there
were 1885 people on the stage at
once. Miss Best stated.
Mrs. Leon Burrell presided, Ar.
thur Helfrich mad the devotions,
Supt. E. H. Chapelle led in group
singing, Mrs. Ray Burrell accom-
panylng on the piano. 1t 9as de-
cided that elections should be in
