Description:	72THE NORMAL ADVANCEAfter the eats were over, the table was cleared and a number of toasts were given. Carl Miller acted as toastmaster and the fol¬ lowing program was gone through with:Welcome Heine HyndmanCome after breakfast,Bring, long your lunch,But weve got turkey for supper. Why the Laugh?.... . Dr. BeanYou can crack a smile three times as easyas you can wring out one soggy tear.Socializin Whack WrightThey say rain makes one beautiful, But Ive stood in the rain for hours.Hail! Hail! The gangs all here! Blondie StorkAfter the program was finished a large bowl of juicy apples was shoved into the middle of the bunch, and then amid numerous chomps of apple music, every person present appointed himself a committee of one to tell all the best and funniest stories that he had ever heard.Heres hoping that our work and recreation may continue in its present enjoyable trend.ECLECTIC.The Eclectic Literary Society entertained at the home of Miss Edith Price on East Locust Street, Friday evening, November 21. An ex¬ cellent program had been prepared and was well rendered. The remainder of the evening was givn over to the playing of games and an informal taffy pull.The chaperons for the evening were Mr. and Mrs. Bruce and the guests present wTere the Messrs. Connor, Jackson, Clauser, Ellis, Meyers, J. M. Koch, Weathers, Henderson, Schuler, J. O. Koch and Millspaugh.FORUM.The program committee is setting forth a very interesting line of work and every mem¬ ber is doing his best in making the meetings a real source of information as well as a pleasant hour socially.Quite a few of the members were away dur¬ ing Thanksgiving vacation to spend the holi¬ day at their various homes.Mr. Lowe, principal of schools, Blackhawk, Ind., was in Terre Haute shopping November 22. Mr. Chas. Fowler, Supt, of schools, Bick- nell, Ind., visited friends in Terre Haute Nov. 15. Mr. Floyd Miner, teacher of chemistry, French Lick, Ind., was in Terre Haute Nov. 15. Mr. Miner roomed at the Forum house in the spring term of 1913 and although not a mem¬ ber has always been a faithful friend of the Forum society. Mr. Chester Like, The Stylesville Banker, was in Terre Haute. Nov. 29.It is the Forums ambition to have a house for the coming term. To have a house means a permanent home for the society, and a head¬ quarters for both active and other members.We all know what a good time the graduate members of the Forum are arranging for us for December 23 at Indianapolis, so let us all be right there and show them how much we ap¬ preciate their efforts.PHILOMA THE AN.The Philomathean Literary Society during the past month has taken up the study of Ar¬ nold Bennet and his works in general. Special attention has been given to Old Wives Tales, of which Miss Anna Cox gave a very interest¬ ing review. Realizing that Variety is the spice of life, the society has added both foreign and domestic events to the weekly program. Moreover, in the future meetings, some time will be given to Parliamentary Drill. The meetings are now held on Saturday morning instead of Wednesday afternoon.Misses Norma Wilson and Hazel Shafer have become members of this society. Both are very capable girls and will, no doubt, enter in¬ to all work with a spirit of enthusiasm.Too low they build who build beneath the stars.—Young.
