ENGLISH MEETING
Prof. Kirtland
Dr. Thompson gave a very interesting discussion on the music of
the American negro at the English
meeting Tuesday afternoon. The
audience was so delighted with the
treatment of poetry and music
that a similar discussion will be
given next week. Prof. Kirtland
will talk on the poetry of Shelley,
Keats, and Wordsworth which have
been set to music.
Annual Hudson Excursion
There is a proverb Somewhere
which says that "coining events
cast their shadows before them."
This is such a shadow. Can you
gllcss what the event is?- Yes,
that's right. It's the big Hudson
River Excursion. On August 6, at
0:oo A, M., the pcope of State College arc going to gather at the
Day Line Pier for the biggest gettogether of the slimmer,
2:15 o'clock, you will have plenty
of opportunity for amusement.
There is a large amusement park
at Kingston Point with a hall of
penny concessions, swings, a merrygo-round and lots of other means
of enjoying life.
The excursion party will go down
011 the Day Cine steamer which
leaves Albany at 0:00 A, M„ Daylight Saving Time. During the
trip down the river there will be
lots of opportunity for sport. There
will be dancing also to help make
the trip more enjoyable, b'or those
people who would rather rest, there
will be also provision. On the
saloon deck there are easy chairs
from which one can observe the
ever changing views along the,
banks of the river and at the same
lime listen to a line concert of
classical and popular music.
As the time passes the pangs of
hunger will doubtless attack the excursionists. To repel this attack
we advise that you take a big
lunch. It is wonderful how the
fresh breeze stimulates the appetite. However, it is not necessary
to carry a lunch, for an excellent
dining service is to be had on the
steamer.
The boat will arrive at Kingston
Point at 1:05 P, .M. As the steamer
for Albany does not arrive until
Then there is the return trip
when the pleasures of the morning
are repeated. The steamer going
up the river gets into Albany at
6:;,30 P. M.
Can you afford to miss something
so worth while? This is one of
those opportunities that cause regret if not taken advantage ,of. Let
us make this excursion a rousing
good time. It will give you pleasant memories to carry home with
you. Sign up now at the table in
the Rotunda. Tiny a ticket. The
price is only one dollar. You will
never begrudge it.
Notice—The tickets that are being sold now are only preliminary
ones to help save confusion at the
ticket office of the Day Line. They
will not be accepted on the steamer,
A table will be in the Rotunda all
flay Friday, August 5 at vvhich
these preliminary tickets will be exchanged for the regular tickets of
the Day Line. You must have the
ticket of the steamboat company in
order to get on the boat. This
method of exchange will make it
easy for you to obtain it with no
confusion or waiting.
Come To The Mammoth Carnival
"Modern Verse" by Miss Futterer
In case the entertainments in connection with Miss Futterer's readings .have become monotonous because of their sameness, we are going to have something entirely different 'this Friday evening. Doesn't the word carnival appeal to you?
That's what is awaiting you this
week. Early in the season we gave
you a little idea of what a big thing
the usual carnival is. This was a
great event last year and we hope
to make it as big a one this summer,
One of the interesting things
that will take place is the stunts by
some of the regular college students. They're good at these, for
stunts arc one of the big attractions
at college in the winter— both for
those takiiig part and for those
looking on. If they aren't good it
won't be because of lack of practice. There will be booths in the
gym where things will be sold and
the best part of it all will be the
decorations. In short it will be just
as you would expect a real carnival to be. It would take too long to
tell of everything that can be expected. Come anyway and be surprised ! Everyone, old and young,
is asked to have a "foolish" time for
one evening of the summer session.
At noon Miss Futterer will give a
reading, " Modern Verse." It is not
necessary to say anything more
about her charm and ability. That
would be superfluous as any of you
who have attended her other readings know% Tell your friends about
'I her and bring them too,
LOOK ! — MOVING
PICTURES !
The Commercial Education Department invites you all to enjoy
some special features in the Auditorium on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week at 12:15.
"Mr. Jones Gets the Big Idea"
is the title of the picture to be
shown on Tuesday by the National Cash Register Company. \n this
is portrayed the interior of a retail store in a state of terrible confusion and disorder. As the story
progresses a great change takes
place. Come and see for yourselves.
Wednesday, August 10, the screen
offering is put 011 by the New
York Telephone Company. You
are promised a humorous as well
as an instructive picture.
These moving pictures are interesting to every one of the Summer _ Students. Plan to be in the
Auditorium at 12:15 on both days.
COMMUNITY CHORUS
Edna Shafer '24 to Sing
Miss Edna Shafer, a member of
the class of 1924, will sing at the
Community ('bonis tonight. The
students 'of the Summer School
have a rare treat in store for them
as Miss Shafer's beautiful contralto
voice has delighted many audiences
during the past year. She will
sing a group of songs by the American composer, Mac Dowel!.
WEDNESDAY'S MUSIC
HOUR
The comparatively large number
who have attended Mr. Candlyn's
organ recital at St. Paul's Episcopal church on Wednesdays at live
o'clock is sufficient proof that they
have been a success. The opportunity of hearing one so widely
k'now in music circles should not
be missed.
One thing that is especially interesting about these recitals is that
occasionally he plays selections
composed by himself. It is an additional privilege to hear his rendition of his own music.
The program which will be given
on Wednesday of this week is as
follows:
1. Marche Religeuse.
Saint-Saens
2. Rhapsody on Breton Melodies
Saiut-Saens
3. Song of the Volga
Boatmen ..Russian Folk

MORE ENTHUSIASM
The instructors, in Summer
School certainly know how to give
long assignments and lots o( work,
but one can't be dissatisfied when
he stops to consider the short time
in which the material has to be covered. Jt is to l>e expected that we
have to work quite a lot, but we
mustn't forget that there is another
side to the six weeks that we spend
here. '
The Community Choruses, the
Friday night entertainments with
the gct-to-gethcrs afterwards, the
organ recitals, the excursions, and
everything else are planned to take
care of that other side of life, The
attendance at all of the affairs so
far has been quite satisfactory, but
still there is a little lack of interest and enthusiasm. We need a
litte more pep and fun to make
conditions perfect—they are nearly
perfect now. Everybody come to
everything! Leave the dignity at
home and have a good time I Then
no one can go home without some
pleasant memories aside from those
of work.
"A little nonsense now and
then
Is relished by the best of
men."
POSTERS
If you are at all observing, you
have all noticed the fine posters
that have been serving a two-fold
purpose in decorating our bulletin
boards and in helping the publicity
committee. They represent much
work, abilty and good-will on the
part of the art department, for
which the committee and the college in general are very grateful.
The productions look very interesting and the place where they are
produced is even more interesting.
The work of this department is a
worthwhile part of State's program
this summer. We feel that the attention of the students should be
drawn to the importance of the
work to avoid the feeling that the
good looking posters just happened
to be on the bulletin boards,
RURAL SOCIAL
PROBLEMS
The new course in Rural Social
Problems given by Professor Adam
A. Walker of the Economics Department of State College, is proving to be a decided success. The
course includes lectures and open
discussions of rural problems.
Rural life is considered from the
social, economic, religious, and educational viewpoints. Its advan-
tages and disadvantages, as compared with tfrban life, are carefully
considered. From time iO time, informal, oral reports, based on assigned readings in books and periodicals, are given by the students.
The material presented is based
upon fact and actual experience as
far as possible, an effort being made
to avoid the empty theory which
has caused so much of the misunderstanding which now exists between the urban and rural dweller.
This course is of interest and value
not only to those who arc brought
in contact with rural life thru their
work, but also to those who thru
environment have been acquainted
with only one type of community.
WE WANT YOUR
IMPRESSIONS
As the Summer Session is almost
two-thirds over we believe that
everyone has formed by this time
some impression of life at State
College in the summer. Nothing
would delight us more during the
next week than to have a host of
comments pour into the " News
Office" which is near the mail box.
Your honest impression and criticisms will be of great interest to
every other member of the Summer
Student Body.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR
BACHELOR'S DEGREE
The large number of normal
school graduates enrolled this year
in the Summer Session will be interested in the fact that the College
offers special opportunities to them
to earn a bachelor's degree. A
graduate of a New York State Normal School is ordinarily able to
earn the College degree in two or
two and one-half years. Norma1!
school graduates who look forward
to becoming high school teachers
arc expected to qualify for a major
and minor in the usual way and
must satisfy the announced requirements for the major and minor.
Provision is also made for normal school graduates who expect
to become supervisors, principals
and superintendents to earn a degree without a major and minor.
One who elects to do this follows a general course to meet his
own individual needs and the credits he must earn arc determined
upon after consultation with the
Dean. Some fifteen or twenty normal school graduates have already
submitted their credentials under
this latter plan and are expecting
to return for future summer- sessions and possibly during the next
College year.
THE MASTER'S DEGREE
An increased number of graduates of other colleges are seeking
the Master's degree at State College. The Dean has received credentials this summer from several
candidates of other institutions who
expect to return to future summer
sessions to earn the degree. It is
now possible for one who is a graduate from a recognized college to
earn the Master's degree in four
summer sessions. One who comes
from another college, who has
taken the general arts course, finds
it desirable in working for our
Master's degree to do special work
in the general field of education.
STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS
In addition to the honorary and
secret socities State College supports several student organizations.
These clubs are connected with
various departments in that they
have been organized to promote interest along special lines,
CHEMISTRY CLUB
The Chemistry Club was founded
December 13, H)\2, its purpose being to promote the spirit of chemical-research. It is now the oldest
existing club in college. Last year
it essayed to publish a papcr,"The
Harmone" which proved so successful that it has been enthusiastically continued. Chemical literature of every type, serious or
funny, is published to the extent of
four or five times a year in this
paper.
•
The club itself holds its regular
meetings the second Friday afternoon and the last Wednesday evening of every month. At these meetings reports arc made on current
magazines and papers arc submitted by the members. But more
popular even -than these formal
meetings arc the informal ones held
in the spring and fall, the spring
being the time of the "Chcm Club
Picnic," and the fall, that of the
big initiation and dance,
At this initiation those people are
taken into the club who are taking
advanced chemistry courses and
desire to join and those who,
though still unadvanced who are
willing to present a paper before the
club as a token of their desire and
ability to join,
A special event staged this year
was the "All Chcm Mystery for
Alchemistry," a big chemical show
and dance.
FRENCH CLUB
, Fluency in French speech and
appreciation of the French people,
their art, customs, government, history, and education are the aim of
the French Club, Through French
songs, games, and lectures opportunity has been afforded for hearing
and using the spoken language.
Under the auspices of the French
Club the students of State College
have directly aided French war
orphans during (be past year.
J O S E P H HENRY SOCIETY
The Joseph Henry Society of
State College was organized in 7916
for the purpose of acquiring a
broader knowledge and appreciation of the current development in
the physical sciences. The society was discontinued during the
war, but was reorganized in 1919.
Anyone who has completed
Course 1 in Physics is eligible to
join Joseph Henry Society. Several
new members were taken in this
year and the prospects for a flourishing organization in '22 are bright.
All who have heard the wireless
concerts in the Science building on
Thursday evenings have enjoyed
them, The Joseph Henry Society
meetings arc always made interesting either by something in the
nature of experiments or by short
talkson current development in the
physical sciences.
MATHEMATICS CLUB
In December, 1918, the Mathematics Club of State College was
founded by the students who were
taking either a major or minor in
mathematics.
It was organized for the purpose
of broadening the general view and
showing the brighter side of mathematics by informal discussions and
lectures on interesting phases of
this subject not taken up in class,
It also aims to make the mathematics students better acquainted
among themselves,
Besides the regular monthly
meetings two social affairs are held
during each year for the initiation
of new members. Anyone who has
successfully completed one semester of analytic geometry is eligible for membership.
MUSIC CLUB
The purpose of this organization
is to educate one's taste for recreation. Music Club wants to help develop in the students of State the
appreciation of good music, literature, and dramatics.
To join the club a student must
pay twenty-five cents and signify
his willingness to take part in the
meetings if possible.
These meetings occur on alternate Fridays. An interesting program is given each time, This
year the club had pins which are in
the form of a lyre.
i
POLITICAL SCIENCE CLUB
One of the major aims of education is to prepare for citizenship.
The best way to prepare one's self
to take part in solving the nation's
problems that confront her citizens
is to study and discuss these problems, The Political Science Club
aims to develop citizenship through
the study of political and economic
current problems. The club is
under the supervision of the departments of government, history, and
economics through Prof. Hutchinson, Prof. Walker, Prof. Hidley,
and Prof. Kirtland,
PRESS CLUB
Press Club aims to promote the
journalistic movement in State College, and to interest people in trying out for college publications.
Membership is open to those people
who arc interested in such work
and desire to know more about it.
The club brings noted newspaper
men to talk both in meetings and in
Student Assembly. This year. Mr,
George Franklin, director of the
publicity bureau of the Republican
State Committee, Mr. Howe, of the
"Press" in Syracuse, and representatives of the "Knickerbocker
Press" have been heard.
Recently Press Club devised a
plan to further its aims and create
more competition in news work, ft
intends to present pins every Moving-Up Day to members of the
"News"- board who are elected to
the four senior executive offices:
Editor-in-chief \ managing editor;
business manager, and subscription
manager.
SPANISH CLUB
The Spanish Club was organized
by students interested in the study
of Spanish and the life of Spanish
peoples. Meetings are held every
two weeks on Friday afternoon
when a business session occurs, followed by a social program. The
programs this year have included
the singing of Spanish songs, playing of Spanish games, and talks by
Professor York, Professor Stinard,
and Miss Martinez. The social efforts of the club, however, are concentrated on the Spanish Carnival
which is held annually after the
spring recess. This year a Spanish "patio" or court-yard was represented. Miss Ethel Rusk, '23, was
Queen of the Carnival, attended by
a train of Spanish senoritas.

Miss Harmon, who received her
training at Pratt Institute is a
teacher in the high school in Lockport and also supervisor of drawing
in the public schools of that city,
Her work at the summer session
consists in instructing classes in
Industrial Art, The first class instruction was on elementary bookbinding. "A-B-C" Booklets, wall
paper and cretonne-covered portfolios, and Japanese booklets have
been made. These contain drawings and pictures, supplemented by
written material which explains
phases of industry such as food,
shelter, and transportation, Study
of dolls and toys is also made and
applied to industry. The classes
are very interesting and helpful to
the teachers who arc enrolled in
their own class instruction. •>
With the Dean holding himself
responsible for Thursday's storm
and the coolness which followed it
that evening, everyone else who attended the men's get-together had
better attach himself to some
responsibility which made this
featherless party a huge success.
The affair, fostered by the Sigma
Nu Kappa fraternity at . whose
house it was held, was the first of
its kind in the history of State College summer sessions. The house
and the immediate campus were
prettily decorated with Japanese
lanterns, (lags, and electric lights,
while Victrola music, a handshake,
and "Camels" greeted each guest
as he arrived,
The fireworks of the evening
started when the faculty bombarded the students in a game of
Serve-Us Ba'l. Again and again
the students returned the (ire, but
the heavy artillery under the command of Professor Risfey and
Conch Suavely soon proved too
much for the opposing light brigade, and the latter was finally
forced to retreat with great loss.
The referee featured in the victory.
F.cst the excitement might abate
too soon Mr, I lesser continued the
war by singing " Irish Names " and
" Give a Man a Girl He Can Love."
Mr. Cancllyn assisted him at the
piano.
Dean Horner then continued the
barrage with a scries of articulations during which lie continually
reminded himself that he was not
dreaming but that the large gathering of men before him were really
students at State College.
The feature event of the evening
was a sleight-of-hand performance
by Mr. Miller, which successfully
disproved all the laws of Nature.
Not even the facuty dared to ask
him questions, lest he might work
his magic spells on them.
Both armies took the above omen
as a sign from heaven to cease hostilities, and all joined in chorus
singing under Dr. Thompson. War
and peace songs were the feature.
To make the treaty more secure,
cigars, ice cream and cakes were
served, and, when they could hold
no more, the armies disbanded,
The committee in charge included: George Schiavone, chairman; Lester T. Hubbard, F. Herrick Connors, Harold Baldwin,,
Aldcn Marks, Edmund Osborne,
Harold Holmes, Richard O'Brien
and Charles Grubel.

If you can give of all the best that's
in you,
And in the giving always happy
be—
If you can find the good that's hidden somewhere
Deep in the heart of every child
you see—
Tf you can do these things and all
the others
That

You're In the work that you w e r e
surely meant for;
T a k e hold of it! K n o w it's y o u r
