Red Cross courses will be pro
vided in swimming, diving, canoe
ing, boating, life saving, first aid,
and accident prevention. Training
is designed to qualify instructors
for Red Cross chapters and for
schools, camps, and other organi
zations which have safety or aqu
atic programs.
“The schools offer a splendid
opportunity for training in com
munity leadership and chapter
service,” Mr. Wilson said. "They
provide ten days of well-balanced
and purposeful outdoor activity at
minimum expense, and you ‘learn
by doing’ in coiurses where em
phasis is placed on practice, mast
ery of skills, and practice teach
ing.”
Students may enroll either as in
dividuals or as representatives of
some organization and must be
eighteen or older, in good health,
and agree to teach Red Cross
courses. The total cost of the school
is $35.00 and if their special in
terest lies in first aid and accident
prevention they may enroll for
these coiurses only, or may include
swimming courses in their schedule.
Local Red Cross chapters can give
additional information about the
Aquatic Schools.

Life In North Dormitory
It’s eleven-thirty and aU through
the dorm, not a creature was
stirring—next week’s joke. A little
girl with her lantern in one hand
and a bed time story in the
other starts in the first room.
Shirley and Martha are burning
the midnight oil writing letters—
those girls never study. When little
Lucy opens Peggy’s and Ann’s
door—much to her surprise, the
door collapsed. Those girls are up
to their pranks again. Oh—well,
girls will be girls. Next to the room,
Simpson, Bonnie and Nancy were
practicing for the dance they are
going to next week-end. Up the
stairs Lucy travels. Becky and the
two Betty’s were still exclaiming
over Jenny’s ring—^lucky girl. She
doesn’t need any bed time story to
help her to go to sleep. Peggy
and Bobby were enjoying loung
ing around the whole suite. Mar
jorie, Carolyn, Judy and Ruth
were headed to bed with those
blue night shirts alike on. Pig has
just whipped up some fudge, in
vited Fite and Carolyn, Doris and
Mary Frances to attend. In the
next suite were the girls just over
from South. The following suite was
completely empty. Lucy thinks,
“Have the girls run away or gone
home for good. Oh, yes, I remem
ber they (Anice, Terry, Ann, and
Margaret Ann) were fighting over
the phone with Lillian. Upon open
ing the next door, Susie was foxmd
sitting in the middle of the floor
crying in her shoes. Alice and Flo
have been making ’fom trips to
town a day to keep Susie happy
while she is campused. Poor girl
but it happens In the best of fami
lies.
"Gracious, the next suite is emp
ty. They must be hiding. Yes, a
snicker was heard from the window
seat, another from the closet be
hind the clothest, another imder
the bed, another trader the tub.
The cat’s and Alice are plasdng
agfain. The future Mrs. Ross and
Mrs. Cartwright are lecturing to
night on the subject “Two can
live as cheaply as one” (if one
doesn’t eat). Their suite-mate Ruth
and Mary Katherine were out get
ting a moon tan—don’t get burned.

Jean Rike was trying to prove
to Geneva that a paramecian of
the phylem protozoa and class in
fusoria has a definite number of
cilia.
While in the suite, Anna and Sara
were discussing the cure of cerebral
arteriosclerosia and schizophrenia.
More power to you, girls.
Down the stair Lucy went. She’s
almost through. Barbara has just
finished a fifteen page theme on
“The Art of Lovemaking.” Her
suite is going to try out her idea.
Jane and Ware are exercising.
The others were just standing
around laughing. P. K.’s suite, Mary
Lib, Jane, and Ellen, was the next
room. Lucy cut her way into the
room. Some one was smoking-
bubble pipes. Ginner, Laraa, Becky,
and Niva were sitting at their
desks with their noses dug in the
funny books. “Almost through,”
Lucy exclaimed. Laura had her
suite fascinated by proving to them
that 2 and 2 gives you 3599 instead
of 4. “At last, at last,” uttered
Lucy. Upon opening her own door,
the room was dark. Her suite was
the only one that was in bed. So,
our little house mother, worn and
exhausted, fell into bed and dream
ed of green beans with cocoanut
icing.
There was a yoirag frog name Joey
Who came to the lab of Miss Nooe
As quick as a dart
They cut him apart
Alas, they have killed poor Joey!
