A CANAL JOURNEY.
BY J , G. C .
NEV-~ shal l I forget the delightful trip through
the Gotha Canal. Twelve years have passed
and still I hear the blast of the whistle and the
impatient churning of the eng in e as the natty little
steame'r leaves Sto<'kholm, Sweden's metropolis, in
the distance. Mother and I are on deck, s training
to get a last look through our misty eyes a t the fast
receding hom e which we are leaving. perhaps fo r
ever. I , being a boy, soon dry my eyes. and t urn
my attention to other things- in\·o ltrntarily- for
many impressions crowd theruselvC's upon mo. It is different with mother. She has formed m::w y more
associations than I have. and so she. tands there a
long time looking toward home, a lthough she sees
Finishing my survey of the boat I notice that we
have left the littl e ar ti!iC'ial river wi th its stony
bank · and are swiftly colll' ing upou the beautiful
lak? Mahirn . Another little steamer is at our side,
but only for a momeut. for it is a race, and our
small er rival forges ahonrl.
It is a bright May morning and the rip ples of tho
becal med lake dan ce merrily in tho gol<lon sunlight.
Everything seems joyous an d ha ppy with the birth
of spring. The bird twitter in their gladness as
they lly abo ut the g rnc:i -tinged i lands. A smil e is
upon nature every where. Filled with enthusiasm I
call my mother. She comes. She too is thrilled
wi th the peaceful, joyous scenery, a nd we wonder
it no longer. At last she also turns and goes below if America. tho •·promi ·ed land" of our do. ti nation,

First the boat occupies my attention . 1 peC'r up at

what's this? It looks to me as if the canal has come
to an end I see nothing but large water ta11ks piled
up ill a series of steps up the hill side. r learn that
they are locks as we ri se from one to the other tmtil
we have literally climbed the entire hill ide with our
steamer. It i~ a slow prOl'CSS, an d whil e we go
up many curious people surround us and talk with
us, throwi ng tlowcrs a t us. while we throw pennies

Jake, the renowned VcnD ern, which rival MalarD in scenic beauty. This hke i · much larger than
MalarD . Its shores are more irregul:tr, hence
more attractive. I had the pleasure of seei ng the sun set ou thi s

scene again, to watch the s111J as it dips it matchl ess

As darkn ess came we entered another por tion of
the canal and rnorniug saw us at th e hi stori c city of
Gothenburg. Mother and I ·were lonely here. No peo ple tha t
we kn ew, no friends· to girn advice. ~till the recol
lections of our pleasant canal journy, auct the anticipations of fur ther journ eys to rome were a com
fort to us.

laughed at fo r it. Have you forgotten the time we
were down at Brighton Beach and yon jumped off a
dock to saxe tbat outlandish thing in a bathing suit.
and nearly drowned yourself and her too, and then
fou nd out that she was the best swimmer at Brigh
to n itll(l was only floating instead of d rowning?
Have yon forgotten it Thomas·?" Thomas was i
lcnt. Hi gaze was fixed o_n a fantasti cally carved
parasol-lmudle sticking out of a rack just above a
sty li sh yo un g lady. " It probably belongs to her."
he mused. "l woud er who she is. anyway ?"
" Fremon t !·· shouted the col}ductor. The styli hly cl ressed lady left her seat and started toward the
front of the car. leaving her parasol behind . '·There!
he's forgot li er parasol" exclaimed the littl e man.
and before his wife could interfere, he had seized it
and poked it thru th~ open window. "Hey, there!"
he called excitedly to a bystander, "Give this to a
young lady in pink who's just getting off; its her 's;
she forgot it."
The train star ted and the young lady in pink, who
had been chatt ing with a friend near the door of the
car returned to her seat. "There, Thomas. you 've
gone and done it again!" moaned his wife. M J,;RL M. A)IES.
WHOISH IT? [The following is a contribution , labelled " Forthe
Pointer," ,vhich was recently received . It is anon
ymous which we wish it were not, but by a careful
criti cal and literary analysis we have reached these
co nclusions: I'he writer is a Junior, loyal to the
black and gold , who is st ill so new to the school as
to be somewhat troubled by the brilliancy of the
cardinal-and its wearers. This Junior may be
found struggl ing in the "Slough of Despond," other.
wi ·e kn own as Professional Arithmetic, and at other
times wa ndering through the intricate mazes of
Theory and Music. The title is appropriate in a dou

·'Little Charlie had to be tied · to the sewing machine cause he run 'd away," and the little boy gazed
up into his fath er's face while great unshed tears stood in his eyes and his little red lips trnmbled but he did not cry.
Finally he looked down at the little piece of cord which was tied around the fat ·chubby leg and then back at his father and he said very slowly, "But little Charlie will never run away again ."
After his fa ther had cut the cord which held him captive, the wee runaway sat down on the rug, with bis dog before the tire. Quickly the little shoe was ~ntied and taken off and then he pulled and tugged , at the stocking·until it was off. "I hate that stocking and I'll neve1· wear it again cause that nasty string was tied round it," he said as ho threw it into the corner.
Then the little bare foot was held up to the tire and the child murtuured again and again, "It's an awful thing for a man to be tied to a sewing machine," and finally two big tears rolled down the flushed cheeks and splashed on the little bare leg and the curly head rested on two chubby hands. '
Lower and lower sank the little head until it rested on the dog's back and the eyelids began to droop over the big gray eyes and a sleepy boy whispered, "I'll never run away until I go for good and then I guess I'll be a milkman." Then he slept and the dog leaned over and licked the little bare leg and the tire burned on.

The agitation over Rhetori cals is producing some interesting results. The students have been expressing their opinions frerl y ancl if the question uf "to
be or not to be" were pnt to a vote of the ·chool we do not hesitate to say. that there wonlcl be a practi
cally unanimous protest against abolishing the exercise. The new methods to be employed are exciting a great deal of interest and comment. and the work, if continued by the school in the same spirit as begun,. can hardly fa il to succeed. A joint committee of students ond faculty ham charge of the
work. The student committee is composed of one member from each of the four clas es, and a mem
ber from the school at large. We hope they may succeed in their attempts to make rhetoricals something we shall listen to anrl participate in with pleasure and also much profit. Let ns all he ready to help.
Before this copy of the Pointer is before its readers
the school will be fairly started upon the work of the second quarter, and there will be smooth seas
and favoring breezes. But at the time of this writ
ing it is struggling through rough and troubled
waters. The examinations of the first quarter are
the cause of the billows, and occasionally of some
thing else not less damp. For in spite of the wise
and philosophic views of examinations which our faculty try to inculcate in us, examinations continue
to be the periodic tempests in our otherwise calmly
ordered progress. Even the Methods classes have ,
girnn up their own plans in disappointment and
despair. Perhaps the millenium will bring with it
the abolition of examinations, and until then tud
ents will probably continue to "cram" the last week
of each quartet· and the "wails of woe" will still be
heard.
The football season is over, and the two teams
stand ready to ~eceive the laurels for their well
earned success. In spite of many dii,courageruents they finished the s_eason with only one defeat record
ed against them. To a superficial observer it might seem that athletics are now at a standsti ll, but this
is far from being the case. Basketball is already
being agitated and as this is a game in whirh a much larger proportion of the students take part
than footfall, we may say that the velocity of ath·
letics is accelerated and not retarded. We bad but one opportunity of showing our interest in and loyalty to football, but the enthusiasm then was all that could be desired . We hope to have more than
one chance of cheering our basketball tea~s on to victory.
The first number of our lecture course has been given, an,! everyone is happy. The ticket holders
smile to think of the five more numbers for which
the first bas set so high a standard. The committee
feel elated over the success of the course as a busi· ucss venture. Without canvassing every available
seat had been sold for the first number, and tin :in· cially the course is already a success. This S'liows
the fine results attending co-operative efforts. Everyone (that is everyone who has a ticket) is to
be congratulated.

As the second quarter of Q opens we notice mauy chaoges in the scbool~u~mber of students
come to us for the first time while sernral of !ast year's studenfs are again with us. Among these are Jessie Wood, Glen Tyler, Bessie Jeffers, Agnes
Merrill and Fred Berto.
Elson Whitney, Eleme~tary '00, started for the
Philippine Islands on Oct. 22. Last spring htJ took the Civil Service examination and stoorl second
highest in the United States and later got bis appointment as government clerk in "Our New Pos~es~ious." We expe'ct interesting news from bun soon .
Prof. Sylvester came up to see (we thiuk ) the two
football games that were played here Oct. 20. He gave several reasons for coming. but we who know something of bis tendencies in the past guessed at
once that it was football he was . after. He said "good morning" to us from the rostrum before he
left.
John Grimm, Harvey Scbotield, J. Carlson, Guy
Hamil_ton , W. Finley. Geo. Maule and Mr. Gwin were at Grand Rapids Saturday, Nov. 3, to see the game between the Normn.1 ecoud eleven and the Grand Rapids High School team. They <lidu't see what they expected, however. The Athletic column will tell you why.
The reception given the Oshko"h football teo.111 after their bani game with our boys on Oct. 20 was a pleasant affair. A short literary and musical program was eujoyerl and light refreshments were erved in No. 10. These "football receptions" do much toward keeping up a friendly feeling among the boys who battle for supremacy on the gridiron and between the schools themselves.
Acting on the advice of Prof. Living ton, the school one morning elected Robt. l\Iulvihill as representative-at-large from the school on the joint Rhe
torical committee. Since then each class ha elected its repre cutatives on this committee as follows: Seniors, Matie Barry; Juniors, Chas . . Houseworth; Elemeutaries, Eva Balch; First Years, Geo. Maule. It is expe ted that this committee will make rhetoricals one of the most enjoyable and useful features of the year.
Ex- tate Superintendent of cbools J . Q. Emery,
now chairman of the committ~e on graduating classes, visited us Oct. 10-17. He addressed the school one morning in bis usual earnest manner, and spoke of the necessity of forming correct habits of life d uring yontb. These talks by our visitors are appreciated by us and serve as stimuli to do our best. We hope our president will continue in his . detcnninatiou to let not a visitor escape without at least making a bow lo us.
Faculty rhetoricals were introduced at opening exercises one morning by Prof. Culver. His subject, "The storm that caused the Galveston disaster," was one in which we must all feel a deep interest. By means oi charts he showed us the path of the storm and gave reasons for its winding coul'se across the gnlt . He also spoke of the terrible desolation and rnin left in the wake of the storm. The students, at least. enjoy faculty rhctoricals and are patientlywaiting for the next number.

f tp~ The second victory of the season
t h was won from Oshkosh Oct. 20 by a
_:J} score of 11 to 6. A large and enthu~"' · c>J ,.\\.t-'') siastic crowd gathered to witness the

Schofield kicks goal. O.,bkosb kicks off to Hanson who advances the
ball twenty yards. Schotield makes a run of thirty yards, but Oshkosh secures the ball on a fumble. Clark makes a run of fifty yards but Oshkosh imme-diately loses the ball on downs. No more scoring
in the first half. Schofield kicks off hut Oshkosh, after several good
gains, loses the ball again on downs. Schofield punts forty-five yards. After several minutes of play Clark secures the ball and behi1,d good interference runs eighty yards for a touchdown. Stevens Point now obtains the ball and by a series of end runs and line smashes advances the ball to Osbkosh 's thirty yard line. Here Scbofieltl secures it on a fumble and runs for a touchdown, but fails goal. The game ends with the ball in possession of Stevens Point near the middle of the field.

SECOND TEAM GA.MES.
The first second team game of the season was played at Wausau, resulting in a score of 11 to 0 in favor of Stevens Point. The second game with
the Wausau Highs was played at Stevens Point . The visitors put up a plucky game in the first half, but they could -not stand the pace set by the home team and our boys ran up a score of 34 to O.
The third game was with .the W!upaca Highs at Waupaca. The game was played in a drizzling rain. Our boys simply had a walk-away, the score
being 30 to. 0. In the last game with the Grand Rapids Highs our
boys were defeateed. Both teams put up some strong defense and good interference, but the ignorance of rules by the visitors gave Grand Rap· ids their la.st touchdown and the game. Score 10
to 6. For the visiting team Ames, Gilbert, Miles and
Klillinger did the best work. For the home team Bandeline, Lipke and Love, who plays on the Varsitity Freshman team and who was home for the occasion, were the stars. Without Love Grand Rapids would undoubtedly have lost.
Football is over. Both teams have received excellent support from the students. Unfortunately a coach could not be secured, but, despite this, bl)th
teams have left a reco1·d that they may well be proud of. Only one game has been lost this season; that to Grand Rapids. The schedule ·bas been short, only seven games bemg played by both teams. The score for the games is as follows:
FIRST TEA.i\l.
Oshkosh, 0; Stevens Point, 0. Lawre_nce, 10; Stevens Point, 12.
Oshkosh, 6; Stevens Point, 11.

THE NORMAL POINTER. r3r
A REUNION.
The class of '!)!) r esolved, before they parted on
their bt"igl!t commencement cl:ty . to ha\·e a class cor

class closely uni te1 l in spirit and cnthusiam throuirh

They felt that although in the future they could
ne\•cr again be together as students o[ the dear old
' "'l::iixt.b" they would still find in their new ·mTotwd

cepted their lot with good grace, feeling that " \Vh en God sorts out the weather and sends rain, why
rain's my choice." The cla! s letters were a succ(:S :ind many di<light

bP. the general wish of the '!)!)er to have omc kind
of reunion at corumencment time 1000. In order to
carry out this wi h President Culver appoin ted a
committee to take charge of the matter. The result
was that u banquet was plauncd for Weclnescl:ly
evening June 20, to take place before the usual Fac
ulty reception .
The !)Oers were scatter ed over the state, yet they
came ilocking at the call of Alma Mater. Even the
attractions of the U. W. could not detain them .
The heart of one who could not claim a place in
the court of '!)9 would have rejoiced to sec that mer
ry company gathered together in the gaiety and rev
elry of their tirst reunion with its ·•. ongs. speechcs
and toasts a round the festa l board."
For a brief time reminiscense prerni led. They

132 THE NORMAL POINTER.
W o are sorry to learn that the Normal Badger of
Rivo1· Falls will not be published this year. Wo aro not told why, but suppose that iL has uot rec:cirtld
the support that it cortainly merits.
The Normal Advance from Oshko h is an attractive shP.ct. We compliment the editors upon the or
ganiziition of their paper.
The convir.t was experting a reprieve. "Any
news?"' he asked . ··I have no noose for you," was
the jailer's reply .
The Normal Pennant from ' all Jose, Cal., is an exceediugly interesting publication. The cover design is particularly attra<:Live.
Considering the amount of matter writteD aboDt the troubles in China, by men of recognized ability, it does not seem wise for school papers to take up the subject. High School Chat for Septemher contains an art.icle entitled •·China , s. The Powers,"
which occupies nearl y one half the entire paper ..
True lllue comes to us in a very neat cover. We
think an etching or two at the heads of departments would greatly improve the appearance of the paper within .
Al tho not a pretontiou paper, \" C tind tho Island
City tudent a prai ewortby sheet. \\ c like the spirit of the Exchange Editor.
Hunter- Pray do not kill me, r ·ha,·e a wife and tive children to : uppor t.
Bear-So havo I.
The Pythian contains a poem entitl ed ··The !\Ian with the Football." Football men will find this
poem intere ting . The etchin~ at the head· of the departments of this papor are unique and suggc~tirn.
Some papers ham "joke columns." We are unabl e to see tho "funny" in many of th cso. Thi is
no doubt due to our lack of apprcc·iat i•>n of wit, for surely no paper won Id publi ·h two eol unrns nf jokes unless they were funn y.
The Sphinx publi~hes the following. taken from
the Record: "The State University of Wi consin was
bitterly attacked at the session of the Presbyterian
Synod at Waukesha. The students were accused of drunkenness and disreputable conduct, and the in
stitution was~ as an ungodly one, unfit to be
the educational home of clergymen's sons or the
sons and daughters of good church members." Judge Eastman of Marinette declared it was high time some college should he able to compete with
the State University, which he declared was an objertionable institution .
Iu the Normal Red Letter is a description of a rhe
torical program. We refer it to out· Committee on Rhetoricals.
High School Sentiment is the name of a neat li ttle paper publish1 d at Parsons, i(ansas. The ed itorial pages are particularly well written.
Razzl e: Why is an engagement for a taffy party like a man who is running for office?
Dazzle: Oh. [ dunno. Something about a "pull" I suppose.
Razzle: A mile off as usual. No, it's a candydate.
The Ryan Clarion comes to us from Appleton,
Wis. We admire the editors' selection of material.
It is strictly a sohool paper. When we read a school publication we expect to learn someth ing about the school that puts it fortll. So many school papers have everythin·g or anything in them but
news of their own school.
When we read a paper like The Spartan we feel
an in terest in the school that publishes it. The paper is full of school life. We think the beauty of
the cover is marred by such conspicious adverti cments.
The Pointer wishes to acknowledge the receipt of .the following exchanges: The Sphinx, Madi on, Wis.; The Pythian, Kalamazoo, Mich. ; Our Times,

Ou Friday, the 26th of October, the play that a
group had beeu working ou as their optional work,
wa given in Miss Quinn 's room. "Admi ion One

pine bough , autumn leaves, vine . pictures and
flower · . Tbe cast of character wa written on one
of the boards and was as follows:

On Lhc other hand th e little g roup was well
pl •ased, because by drnrging the "o ne cent admi ·.

party. st rin ging·po pcorn . pumpkin .·eccl and cran

The par ty began with a bean hun t, la ting fo r a
gi\'cn leugth of time. and th e boy that found the The fairies came da ncing in, d res eJ in their most beans was rewarder! with a huge pumpki n

The fairies laughed at him, but poor little Joe be
came more and more home ick till by chance Honor
found him a nd rescued him from fai ryland.
Miss Quinn had charge of the room till about
11 :0~. then Anna Mason an nounced that the play
would begin ai,d called attention to the cast of char
acters. From tha t time on the room was entirely
in the hands .of the littl e group, who did so well in
presenting the play. Jmrued iately after the enter
tain ment a song and dance was given by Vern.
Eaton, the N ight Moth, followed by songs from the
fairies, and ending with the customary word of
thank from Norma. Stuart.
The Grammar ancl Primary rooms were dismi ssed
in order that the pupil s might see the entertainment
and the Intermed iate room wa~ tilled with pupils,
and a "feast" of , bread and butter was prepared.
Another thing that greatly i11tcrested the children
was that which Miss Faddis had prepared . An easel
was placed in tlrn front of the room with sheets of
paper o,' er it. The children would cntei· from the
cloak room, and put just. a mall part of their face
between the sheet. , whil e those sitting in the room
would guess who it was. This, together with the
" nonsense bag " that had been prepared. proved to
be "great fun" for the children.
A little boy from the Primary room was asked
why a pin wa;; charged as admission fee to the
"Hallowc'e11 ·• party, instead of a penny, and he re
pli ed : "Oh. I don't know, bntl guess it was because
if we charged a penny we'd have to co un t them and
we dich' t wan t to do that."
Interest has been aroused in music among the g irls
teachers and friends. All were ,·ery much pleased in the Grammar department by,having them practice
and a la rge cred it mark ought to be gi,·en to the
group who planned and, without aid, sosucce ... ful
