NORMALS SWELL
REGISTRATION
Spring Course Brings Many
Ttwhcrs.
The new students who have enrolled in the Normal department
for the spring term review course
are a fine looking body of young
men and women. The average
age of these students is considerably lower than that of the review classes in former year*. The
•enrollment is being increased
every day and when all who have
promised by letter to come have
arrived we shall have a represen
tation from every county south
and east of Suwanee—save only
one.
Two strong and capable public
school men have been added to
the Normal School faculty for the
spring term. They are Thos. D.
Culp, A. M., principal of the Wil-
liston H. S., an*d Philip Ridley,
A. B., of Philadelphia.
On Saturday morning last President Hulley gave the review class
an interesting, instructive and
highly entertaining lecture on
"Eugene Field and the Children."
On Friday evening the students
and a number of the faculty of
the Normal School joined their
efforts to give the Normalites an
enjoyable informal reception at
Chaudoin at the social hour.
Director Suhrie, with the cooperation of his assistants, is planning a number of special features
of entertainment and instruction
for the teacher, and all seem enthusiastic over the outlook for
the term.
STETSON LITERARY SOCIETY
The program last Saturday
evening was composed of addresses by the incoming and outgoing
officers. No one except those who
have been closely connected with
the work of this Society can fully
appreciate such a program. The
addresses were filled with love and
devotion for the Society, and with
Stetson spirit crystalized.
Prof. Frosr, in his remarks,
said that never Iwfere did he h iv
■is inn -h con fi Im ic j in this S >ciety
as now. This should certainly
encourage the Society to bettei
and more earnest work.
The program for next Saturday
evening will be in commemoration of Longfellow's centennial.
The officers for the ensuing year
are as follows:
Pres.—Miss Whiting.
Vice.-Pres.—Miss Kupperbusli
Sec—Mr. Hill.

IN RETROSPECT

The Dramatic Club of the University reproduced the College
Play at Orlando on March 14, before the State Conclave of the
Knights of Pvthias. The program
given here the evening before was
carried out with splendid success.
Lack of space f >rbids extended
romment upon the work of each
nember of the cast. Tilden was
it his best and Mickle did a
•splendid piece of work in the farce
in winning the audience for the
serious drama which followed.
Miss Web-ter played the young
wife to perfection. When the
farce closed the psychological moment had come to op^n the play
of "Damon and Pythias" for the
audience was ready to give the
great drama an attentive hearing.
Mr. Suhrie and Mr. Cramer as
Damon and Pythias, respectively,
surpassed themselves. The delegates to the Grand Lodge have
made an endeavor to have th3
play reproduced in Tampa, Jacksonville, Miami, Lakeland and
no less than a half dozen other
points. It is barely possible that
the cast will go to to Jacksonville
for a matinee and an evening performance.
By way of recreation the baseball nine stopped off at Rollins
on Friday and Saturday next and
returned with two more good
scores to their credit. Every little helps out, and as it proved this
helped out considerably. The
scores were, 8-2 and 5-1, in the
University's favor.
When our actors and athletes
had returned from their trips and
