BOWLING ALLEY
A Bowling Club has been or-
ganized on the campus. The
Bowling Alley is under the Old
Dining Hall and consists of two
alleys and some small Bowling
balls. It's fifteen members are:
E. L. Henderson, 11. C. Hayn.es.

regulations ore few: (1) No
bowling allowed before 3 a. m.
nor between the hours of 12:30
and 1:30 p. m nor between the
hours of 5:45 and 6:30 p. m. nor

e Sophomores. The may b()wl Resident guests are
not permitted. Wives of members
may use the alleys except from
6:30 to 9:00 p. m. Children of
members, when using the alleys,
must be accompanied by parents
and must not play between the
hours of 6:30 and 9:00 p. m. (3)
The alleys are reserved for mem-
bers only from 6:30 to 9:00 p. m.
(This does not apply to invited,
out-of-town guests.)
This is an excellent movement
as there is very little recreation
of such nature afforded by
Greenville. This organization is
the only one of its kind in Green-
ville.

During the second half of
the game, Goldsboro boys be-
gan to run up their score with a
more definite count. But the!
teachers were o
and played all the harder. When
the whistle blew to close the
game the score was 34-21.
The boys won their first game
by fair play, cooperation and
speed. From the very first mo-
ment of the game every specta-
tor was intensely interested in
seeing just how good our boys
really are And they saw. Ev
ery player that went on the
court was a striking example of
good sportsmanship and real
playing.
So come on students let's give
the boys a rousing cheer to show
them how proud we are of this
year's team. By the way those
boys played it would never be
guessed that this was only the
second season in basket ball his-
tory at E. C. T. C. Just keep
up the good work boys and re-

The Mathematics club held its
regular meeting in the Y hut on
December 6. Immediately after
the business procedure, each
member was given a puzzle to
mark out. after which the club
enjoyed an extremely interesting
talk by Dr. Rebarker in which
he told of the origin of Mathe-
matics and mathematical terms.
It was amusing to learn how so
many of the "every-day" words
have been based on mathema-
tics.
Refreshments were enjoyed
before leaving.

The Physical Education depart-
ment of East Carolina Teachers
College, for the first time in the
history of the school, will offer,
under the direction of Miss Sum-
merville who is head of that de-
partment, a three hour course
next term in Physical Eudcation.
It is purely a theory course for
only those preparing to work in
the Junior and Senior High
School. The students in this
course will work out a program
of athletics for the high school,
try to develop an ideal athletic
association for the high school,
study the cost of equipment for
high school athletics, and take up
other problems confronting one
in high school athletics. Then
they will study the situation in
the Greenville High School and
see how their program would
work there and see just how one
should be carried on.

The word Christmas brings with it a
thrill and a cheery warmth. It is a time of
friendship for all people, a time when we
smile at our enemies and wish them well.
We forget our petty cares and worries and
beam happily at each person we see. We
forget ourselves and remember kind things
about the ones around us, and we try to
show our appreciation for what they have
done for us.
Christmas is the time that we make a

MRS. BRADSHAW NIGHT-RIDING
I know there are lots of things happening
on this Campus that would be of interest
to the student body if they were only told,
but when I learn some of them they are
most shocking. For instance, on Wednes-
day night of last week I was walking from
Wilson Hall with a person who rooms in
that dormitory. When we got in Austin
building she insisted on going from main
corridor to thc vestibule in front of Austin.
From there she stepped outside the doors
but she did not invite me to remain with
her. When I had left she had taken a com-
fortable standing position in the shadows.
Yes; Mrs. Bradshaw claimed that she had a
legitimate reason for waiting there. She
was waiting for her grandchild to come
over and practice for the night of the Sen-
ior play, she insisted. She can just tell
that tale to the fish if she likes for she will
have a hard time convincing the night

I WONDER?
"Bryn Mawr's action in having a special
smoking room, has caused a great deal of
discussion in the other colleges about girls
smoking. We wish to flatter ourselves by
saying that we believe smoking is the least
of our troubles. It just isn't done at our
college. Or is it? If so. the girls who do it
are ashamed to let it be known, for they
know that the sentiment of the students as
a whole is so strong against it that it would
not be tolerated.
A certain college professor told a class of
girls that the only way to make thc men
stop smoking would be to begin smoking
themselves. Probably the Byrn Mawr
girls were following such advice. As for
us, we are willing to let the men smoke on
alone. It is their coffins they are making,

Deah Santa:
My name is Jack, and I am
cute, and have been good except
for a few times, and I don't tell
the girls I love them if I don't.
(I can play basket ball, too.)
Santa, bring me something that
1 can put on my curls to hold
them down. The girls play with
my hair and make my heart beat
too fast. Also bring me some
stick candy, a blow-gun, and an
automobile that won't turn over.
I want some advice, too�just

the earth: now it stopped al-
most above them, showing every
little street, each dark house and
public building in the sleeping
village below them.
They saw its rays shining
brigiiter and brighter on an old
stable back of an inn, an ugly
spot for such a glorification. Me-
tarba with Sor and the three
other shepherds fell to their
knees and covered their eyes.
There was the sound of music
and a whirring roar like a great
wind about them: the light was
greater. A voice came to them
distinct and lovely, "Fear not.
for behold I bring you good tid-
ings of great joy which shall be
to all people. For unto you is
born this day in the City of Da-
vid, a Saviour which is Christ
the Lord. And you will find '
the babe wrapped in swaddling
clothes and lying in a manger
The little group trembled and
was stricken dumb that an an-
gel of the Lord should appear
unto them, humble and poor
shepherds. As the angel ceased
speaking there came the sound
of a host of voices raised in
song, like a great breath blown
across the earth from Heaven.
"Glory, glory. Glory unto God
in the highest, and on earth,
peace, good will to men The
music faded and the light grew
softer. Metarba and the men
were on their feet, and they
were amazed to see a glow on
every face which had never
been there before.
Glory to God in the highest!
Jehovah had blessed Israel, had
at last sent a King and leader, a
Prince of Peace, a son of David
who would save his people.
Metarba and Sor hurried with
the others down the hillside, Sor
holding the lamb. At the door
of the humble stable over which
burned the Star of Promise
stood a kindly man, who led

THE DEATH OF LADY
MACBETH
I had been Lady Macbeth's
personal maid for twenty years,
the last twenty years of her life.
In all of those years I never saw
her as unhappy as she was
when she was queen of Scot-
land.
Lady Macbeth was an exceed-
ingly beautiful woman. She was
very tall and slender, and had
dark brown hair that fell in
rectly r indirectly from Latin,
that practically all our gram-
mar is borrowed from Latin.
and that there are countless al-
lusions in our literature which
can best be understood if we
know Latin, we can still see
why Latin is taught in high
schools. It is time that the sta-
tus of Latin is declining. Latin
is a hard subject, and it is not
made interesting to the pupils.
most of them will drop out, un-
less it is required.
I have been doing practice
teaching in Latin this term,
and I have endeavored to make
Latin appeal to my students as
something really vital. There
must be drills and drills, but
there are other tilings, too.

It was in an April when I be-
gan to notice how thin and ner-
vous she was getting. And often
I noticed a sad, unhappy glint in
her eyes. At first I thought her
worried about Macbeth who
was out in battle, but gradually
I began to realize how very
wrong I was. She would not,
or could not sleep and often
when she would sleep she
would cry out as if she were
afraid. One night in early June
I noticed Lady Macbeth more
nervous and unhappy than us-
ual. I begged her to go to bed
and try to get some much need-
ed sleep, but she would not
obey me. Neither would she
let me give her anything to
make her sleep. She kept walk-
ing up and down the room. And
occasionally I could hear her
gasp as if in fear. Then, sud-

virile? Any of my Latin stu-
dents could tell you from what
Lai in word they come, and
what they mean in English.
Students begin the study of
grammar very early, but often
certain phases of it confuse
them. As Latin requires the
analysis of each word in the
sentence, the students acquire a
large amount of knowledge
about English grammar. You
will find that students of Latin
are better English grammarians
than those who have had no La-
tin, if it is taught in the right
way. I have tried to correlate
English grammar with Latin in
my teaching.
I have tried to give them some
cultural background. I have
told them about the clothing of
the Romans, the homes they
lived in, and the Roman forum.
They were surprised at the
many things the Roman had in

The first issue of the Teco Echo
was published December 19, 1925
seven years ago. In that issue
are found some statements that
are of particular interest to stu-
dents of today. Here are some of
these:
The Y. W. C. A. hut is now

everything ready for a house

Mr. M. L. Wright's classes in
Sociology 202 are not going to
take the annual trip to Caswell
Training School near Kinston
this Fall. It has been customary
for those classes to supplement
their study of the mentally de-
ficient with a trip to this institu-
tion. This year, however, the
classes are so large that suffi-
cient transportation can not be
secured to make the trip.

were painted red and green; the
others were building blocks of
different sizes and were sand-
papered and shellaced.
A form of tinker toy, very in-
expensive and simple, were
made by stringing brightly hued
spools on string.
Four comfortable, attractive,
substantial chairs were made
from orange crates and covered
with pretty cretonne. These
may be used in any child's play
house for the child to occupy.
These are so complete that one
has its footstool.
A number of ring toss games
were made as was Dad's puz-
zle. Stuffed animals were made
from oil-cloth and stockings.
Three large one-room doll
houses were made and furnish-
ed. The material used for the
houses was soft wood or beaver
board. The walls were painted
or papered, window curtains
were made for the windows, and
a set of furniture and a rug was
in each house. Beside the fur-
niture in the houses separate
pieces of doll furniture were
made. A three piece living
room suite, a table, two large
doll beds with mattresses,
sheets, spreads, pollows and ev-
en dolls, and a small trundle
bed. This latter was made of
a cigar box, four spools, for legs
and four wood clothes pins for
posts.
Many attractive picture books
were made, the pictures being
collected, but being the kind
children are interested in.
The total cost of the toys was
very small, paint being the
largest. But the cost will be
