Mrs. Culver talked to the students telling of the various types of pro grams, and the urgent needs for them. As far as possible teachers are try ing to arrange entertainments that will take little or no time from actual classwork! In developing this plan little skits suggested by different studies may be worked into clever presentations. The ideas .both as to the plot of the programs given, and those of costume will be of great benefit to all those who will teach in districts where these two necessities depend wholly upon them. Mrs. Culver divided the class into groups and placed a leader over each one. It is the responsibility of the leader to see that his group has a program to give sometime during the term.

How easily all difficulties could have been adjusted in the right way, if it had been known. But it is of ten so, we try ao hard, because of foolish pride, to bear burdens alone, burdens which perhaps someone would be glad to lift for us. (Written for the English class, No vember 10, 1926.
