Cortland Normal also enjoyed a Hallowe'en Party on the same even- ing as ours; An interesting feature of the Cortland pj.rty was the unique entrance to the gymnasium. Each guest was obliged to pass thru a den of witches and goblins. After they had met all th e wierd and grotes- que forms, they were pushed down a slide onto the gymnasium floclr which was covered with leaves. Re- freshments consisting of cider and cookies were served. There were no class entertainments n v stunts. The members of the Colgate Football team were guests at the Cortland party. Potsdam is not the only tecbool where the Freshmen feel that Upper classmen are not quite what they should be. Among some of the ways the upperclassmen fall short in Cort- land are: Rushing for Cafeteria line up; lack of respect on the part of children in training school for the student teachers; the Juniors ar e con stantly practising dancing in the halls Op is it they have the St. Vitus Dance ? \Oh Upperclassmen, where is .your dignity?\ It is of interest to note that Cortland Freshmen have to eat Popcorn and apples as part of their obligations to the Upperclass- men. ' > Oswego Normal Notes On November third the students of Oswego Normal School wer e given a rare treat. Dr Roy Elmer Morgan of Washington D C editor of the Na- to-nal Educational Journal visited the school and gave a short address in assembly.

Miss Able spent the week end at her home in Syracuse. Miss Graeper attended a confer- ence in Syracuse after which she went to her home in Rochester for the week end. Miss Phillips visited at the horns of Professor Campbell of the Math- ematical Department of Syracuse University over the week end. The Faculty as la whole have been doing their best by the closest co- operation to make up in a measure for the loss of our dear, beloved Dean, Miss Dr.aime. EVeriy one has a feeling that he or she wants to live up to that ideal self just as our dear deputed one would have us do. Miss Weatherbee left Potsdam the first of October to go to Glove; s- ville to take a position on account of her father's illness. Our greatest sympathy is extended to her on ac- count of her father's deiath last Fri- day morning. At the annual convention of the members of the New York State Retirement System last night Miss Anna Condon was elected as a rep- resentative to go to the House of Delegates at Troy on November twenty first. A member of ihe Teiachers- Retirement Board will be chosen at that time. Miss Schutte spent Friday and Saturday in Syracuse in conference with the music supervisors from the Brockport, Cortland, Buffalo and Oneonta State Normals. The committee formulated a course in the study of music methods. Miss Schuette was chairman of the com- mittee. Happily, we again have Mr. Bis- hop back with us after his illness last week. Four of the Faculty . members, Miss Alice Williams, Miss Jones, Miss Russell, and Miss Hint drove to Wiatertown to attend a recital given by Mr. Edward Johnson last Thursday. Tuesday night.

Jean Gros French Marionettes who are to present a play by Howard R. Garis, Uncle Wiggily at the Circus, are to bring to Potsdam Normal sixty Marionettes who are to delight young and old with the most complicated Marionette show in the world Over one thousand strings are necessary to produce the effects of the play, and trained actors recite the lines of the play, while the pup- pets move about the stage in abso- lute life-like fashion. Th e illusion obtained is remarkable and holds the audience in suspense from the time the curtain rises until th e end when, invariably, every one calls for more, seemingly never tiring of the action of the quaint figures. The famous Bunny orchestra of 8 Rabbbits with their leader is one of the great successes of the perform- ance. These rabbits play with great vim and enthusiasm, seldom making a mistake with the music and are rated as marvelous musicians. They are very tempermental however, and when displeased with their audiences can be seen to wiggle their cotton tails. If they are delighted, they will continue to play until someone has to help them from the Marionette Orchestra pit. Nurse Jane is coming with Uncle Wiggily. and Jacko the Monkey Boy, the great hit of last season is com- ing with even more daring tricks. Jacko boasts that he has never fal- len from his trapeze and offers a spe- cial reward to any boy or girl who can duplicate some of his wonder- ful feats. Mrs. Twist Tail refuses to stop eating and consequently is dreadfully fat. Uncle Wiggily is ashamed to have her appear in his play but does not want to hurt hex- feelings. This is a warning to all boys and girls not to eat too much jam and sweet things else they will look like Pig Lady. The Bad caps are still after the poor Rabbit Gentlemen but Uncle Wiggily defies them, and states that when one is good to his neighbor none of the evil chaps can possibly win over him. Uncle Wiggily invites yon all to see this show, and we know that all who come will hav e a mighty good time. HOW TO PREPARE TEA. Recently in my calling I came across a good example of \the inter- esting subject of the recurrent cycle of jokes and stories.' 5 We all remember the visiting bishop's gratification upon hearing Bridget singing \Jesus Lover of My Soul,\ while cooking the break- fast, and her mistress' explanation that Bridget sang tw 0 verses for the eggs soft-boiled and the entire hymn for the hard-boiled. About two centures and a half ago Sir Kenelm Digby wrote his \Ex- perimental Receipts in Physics and Chirurgery.\ In this for the pre- paration of tea he prescribed: \Let. the water remain upon it no longer than you can say the Miserere Psalm very leisurely.\ —The Rev. Max Kellner. EDUCATION PAYS. Education pays; and pays well. An investigation published by the United States Bureau of Education shows that of all the people in the United 'States who have performed distinguished service and received high honors there was: One person out of each 150,000 who had no schooling. One person out of each 37,000 with a common school education. One person out of each 1,724 with high-school education. One person out of each 187 wfth a college education. —Commercial Education.
