Last .May at the annual meeting of the Alumni Association at Blacksburg, Presidenl Priddy recommended thai a fund of not Less than $150.(XX) be raised and used to build and equip a "community house." Tins is to be erected in honor of the nun who fought in the Great War. He stated thai he had sent a questionaire to one hundred and fifty colleges and universities to learn what the alumni had done in contributing money to their colleges since 1918. The students of these colleges have given an average of $47.^ per man. The building planned is to he huilt of stone
and will contain a large gymnasium, auditorium, halls for the different societies, and sleeping rooms. The estimated cost is $150,000 hut an attempt will he made to secure $250,000.
The suggestion approved by the committee as to contributions was that a man should give ten dollars a year tor the firsl ten year period; after he graduated, twenty dollar- for the second period; thirty dollars for the third period; and fort) dollar- for the fourth period. This is onlj a suggestion as to the minimum subscription. At the present time. ??7 subscriptions have been made for a total of $83,494.

THE TEACHER'S VOCABULARY In the earlier days of our country, the preacher was the central figure in the intellectual life oi a community. This was especially true of country districts and small towns where he was often teacher as well as preacher. We find now that times have changed. Since the automobile has so radically shortened distance, the country preacher has become an almost extinct species. As a result the teacher finds herself in a position of authority in the community whether or not it is her desire to occupy such a place. In no respect, perhaps, does her responsibility become -ii evident as in the linguistic life oi the people. She may. at any time, be called upon to pass judgment upon some doubtful point in grammar or rhetoric to approve or correct a paper, to read in a public meeting, or even to spell a word for someone whose orthography is uncertain. Another thing which one lias a right to expect of a teacher is that her own speech be such that it will lead no trusting person astray, and will not offend the sensitive ears of Other educated people. We will first consider some of the general characteristics essential to a teacher's vocabulary. It must be adequate, first of all, for any occasion. Much depends upon having an ample supply of words. To know how to use this suppl) is hardly less important. A teacher should be able to express her thoughts clearly, concisely and happily; and without apparent effort. She must have a "linguistic conscience," hut must not he a prude. Let us now turn our attention to the various type: of vocabularies needed by the teacher. Someone has said, "Every person has at least two ways of speaking his mother tongue." No teacher can fulfill her mission with less than three, and each of these is quite different. The first we will discuss is the more technical or professional vocabulary, with its terms and phraseolog} peculiar to the teaching profession. Every teacher, worth) of the name, will keep in touch with the movements and changes which take place in the educational sphere. Books, |ieriodicals and conventions are all means to this end. and all involve a professional vocabulary. The schoolroom vocabulary, also, would be a branch of this type. This will vary with the subjects and grades taught. Each subject has its individual set ol terms with which the pupil mils! become familiar, and the teacher must be careful to use language suited to the grade and intelligence of the children. Another style of speech, which is necessary tu everyone to some extent, and to the teacher to great extent, is the formal style. This is used when speaking to those with whom one is not well acquainted, or when transacting busini The teacher must frequently consult patrons upon matters pertaining to the children of the school, and she must he able to meet each II]MIII his own ground, whether he he mayor of the town or janitor of the school. A vocabulary which contains a supply of words necessary or desirable to converse intelligently with the intelligent and s\ inpathetically with those less fortunate is a valuable and even essential assel to the successful teacher. It i- not necessary to use an elevated style of diction often, if at all. To express one's thoughts in simple, well chosen language rc>|itirc- more skill and is in infinitely

Room 122 The Real Silk Hosiery Mills
The spring blew trumpets of color; Her Green sang in my brain— I heard a blind man groping 'Tap-tap" with his cane. I pitied him in his blindness; But can I boast, " I see ?" Perhaps there walks a spirit Close by, who pities me—
Master of human destinies am I ! fame, love, and fortune on my footsteps wait. Cities and fields I walk; I penetrate Deserts and seas remote, and passing by Hovel and mart and palace BOOH or late I knock, unhidden, mice at every gate! If sleeping, wake if feasting, rise before 1 turn away. It is the hour of fate. And they who follow me reach every state Mortals desire, and conquer every foe Save death; hut those who doubt or hesitate, condemned to failure, penury, and woe. Seek me in vain and uselessly implore. I answer not and I return no more'
