ALBANY, N. Y., OCTOBER 17,
STARTLING GROWTH
OF ORCHESTRA
Wanted.—Two 'cellists, two banjoists. Apply State College Orchestra. Castella I lees, president;
Eleanor Abranis, secretary..
Qualifications.—(I) An instrument
in your possession. (2) Ability to
appear for practice Tuesday evenings between 7:15 and 9 o'clock.
Home Address.—380 Western avenue, Telephone West 3470-W.
You have read the advertisement
—be the first to answer it.
The qualifications are easy to
meet but are, however, very important. You will notice that we don't
want the 'cellist without the instrument—we have no money with
which to buy you one. You will
also notice that for fear of scaring
some one away we did notsay anything about ability to play it. However, we judge that yon will be able
to read the notes and pick out the
parts at the required orchestra
practice,
The drilling of each
group of instruments over the difficult passages is especially valuable, so that if you do not know
your part at first you will have mastered it with Mr. Candlyn's thorough attention to each of the parts.
Opportunity is given each member
to practice his part at home,
11 is a necessity, moreover, that
you be able to attend rehearsals
regularly, whether or not you arc
obtaining credit in the course. The
efficiency of the orchestra as a
whole depends largely upon this
fact.
After hearing these simple qualifications, can't you consider yourself eligible? We hope that you
won't think of regular attendance as
a weekly bore to you, for it is the
source of thorough pleasure to the
members in the orchestra at present. The enthusiasm shown by the
unanimous desire of the orchestra
to take tbe music home should be
very encouraging to you.
The present registration in the
orchestra is twenty-five, a considerable increase since last year. The
increase in the noise we can make is
proportional to the increase in our
numbers.
We can boast of the following
instruments as appearing in our
orchestra for the first lime: Trombone, played by Hayes, '25; the
cornet, played by Miter, '25; the
banjo-mandolin, played by Florence
Dorsey, '23, and the banjo, played
by Mayes. The flute, which hasreappearcd, is played by Crane, ''25.
It is quite difficult, and, moreover, impossible for Hayes to play
two instruments at the same time.

The gym frolics arc given by the
Girls' Athletic Association, and this
is the first opportunity of the year
for all the G. A. A. girls to "get together." Let everyone who enjoys a hilarious time come dressed
in bloomers and middle, Pull out

There will be new stunts, and a

this frolic. You will feel as youthful as a child of twelve when the
lights are snapped out and you are
unceremoniously forced to leave a

Ibis the more later, when we missed
the round-up at Cody by a single
day, owing to car trouble.
The Yellowstone trail led us
through some wierdly beautiful
country in Wyoming, over prairie
roads, mere trails in many cases,
through rugged red and yellow
•cliffs, almost bare of vegetation
and with very few traces of human
habitation. We wondered indeed
where the childrein lived who attended the line rural schools which
we passed frequently — and still
more who paid the taxes to keep
them going. For many miles we
followed the old Oregon trail and
our respect for the pioneers increased as we penetrated farther
and farther into the desert and
realized the hardships which they
must have endured.- We entered
the park from the east, through
Cody and the Shoshone canyon,
and, let me advise you, if you are
contemplating a trip to the park
some day, to go this way by all
means. As far as scenery goes,
the rugged canyon of the Shoshone
river can boast of more beauty than'
the park itself. Can you imagine
our delight upon camping for the
first time in a real primeval forest
with pine needles, a mossy creek,
wild flowers resembling those we
find_ at home, with the sun setting
behind a huge crag of deep red
rock?
I am appalled at the idea of telling
you anything about the Yellowstone! .1 can simply say that the

A PLEA
FOR
THE
FUTURE
The interest of the world will
shortly be centered upon the conference on the limitation of armaments at Washington.
That the young people of this
country realize the magnitude of its
importance to them and to future
generations is evidenced by their
attitude at the present time. One
of the farthest reaching religious
organizations, embracing the youth
of several nations, has taken for its
slogan "A Warless World by 1923."'
A few weeks ago President
Hibben of Princeton University,
in his matriculation sermon, suggested that an association of students in the nation's universities be
formed to assist the Washington
conference to end the international
race for .supremacy in armaments.
As a result 1,200 students of Penn
State College have unanimously resolved to challenge the students of
Europe to join the undergraduate
bodies of America in such a concerted effort that there will be no
doubt that the men of the future
desire permanent peace.
They further propose that every
college in the land send delegations
on December 3 to the Disarmament
Conference to present their pleas in
the name of the nation's young
manhood to "end wars."
When one considers that war
eats at the foundation of the future,
that it claims the young men as its
victims, such resolutions and movements have particular significance.
