THE NORMAL STAR
TRAINING SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
THE FIRST THANKSGIVING’S DAY
Once there was a king in Eng-
land and he wanted the people
to worship as he did. Some peo-
ple who called themselves Pil-
grims, did not like this and they
left England.
They went to Holland and lived
there very happily for several
years for they could worship as
they wanted to. Their mothers
and fathers saw that the clildren
were learning to speak the Dutch
language and forgetting the Eng-
lish language. They too saw
that the children were marrying
the Dutch, so they decided to
leave Holland.
They left Holland and came to
America. The voyage was a very
rough one. In the midst of the
ocean a little baby was born.
They named the baby Oceanus.
When they got there they had
to build houses, get food, and
over half of the people died.
When spring came the Indians
helped the Pilgrims plant crops
and they had enough food to last
them through winter.
They thanked God for three
days for the rain and sunshine
he had sent them.
This is why we have Thanks-
giving Day.

NORMAL 0; WEST END 6
In an interesting, but un-
matched game, West End defeat-
ed Training School. The invaders
were much heavier, having boys
on their team representing Cor-
onal, High School, West End and
East End schools. In rushes the
West End boys managed to place
the ball behind our goal. Cliett,
Shands and Soyars- showed up
well for the Training School,
while Saunders and Hill did
starring for West End. Our
boys showed much improvement
over the last game holding the
West End boys to 6.

ARE YOU A CLEAN SPORT?
Do you play the man instead
of the ball?
Do you play for yourself before
you play for the team?
When you think you have a
LETTER made, do you want to
let some one else play in your
place?
Do you avoid a foul less than
getting caught?
Do you run hard in front of
the grandstand and easy on the
back stretch?
Do you play off when the coach
isn’t looking?
Are you a quitter when the
game is against you?
Do you blame your team mates
when you lose?
Do you knock the referee?
Do you cheer when the oppon-
ent is penalized?
Do you root to confuse the
other team?
Do you try to drown out their
signals?
Do you hold or slug when the
umpire isn’t looking?
Do you quit when things do
not go to suit you?—C. S. S.

Miss Sauer—“I haven’t any.”

WHY?
Question —“Why is the STAR
