As this act further provided that none of this land should be sold for less than 3410 per acre, little income has been received from this source, but each year the amount is increasing. The second State Legislature in 1893 located two State normal schools, one at Albion and one at Lewiston. It provided that each school should re- ceive one-half of the proceeds from the State nor- mal school lands, but made no appropriation for the support of the schools. However, the citizens of Cassia County raised 353,000 by popular sub- scription and built the old rock building which is now part of the main building. In this building Rev. Charles Lyle conducted a school during the winter of 1893-94. In 1894, Prof. F. A. Swanger was elected president, and in September, 1894, opened the school with one assistant and 23 stu- dents. . In 1895, the Legislature passed, over theigov- ernor's veto, a bill appropriating bonds with a face value of 9,575,000 to the use of the two nor- rnal schools. These bonds were sold at a good premium and procured 346,760.63 for the use of the Albion State Normal School. ln 1895-96, the main building was erected. In 1901, the old dor- mitory was built. ln 1905, 329,000 was appro- priated for a second dormitory, and the citizens of Albion donated five acres of ground to increase the size of the campus. The new dormitory is now occupied by the young ladies, and the old by the young gentlemen. The recent opening of the Twin Falls and Mini- doka tracts makes Albion a most desirable place for a school from the standpoint of population as well as for other reasons. The liberal appropria- tion by the last Legislature, secured through the tireless efforts of Senator George A. Day and Re- presentative Harry T. Wcst has made possible large increases i11 the faculty and the equipment of the school. The town of Albion has united its public school with the Model School and a com- plete Model School building has been erected for the training department. This gives the school special facilities for training teachers, facilities unexcelledin the northwest. 1 tar' , w 1, ,mf 1 JJ' ,-'Q fi ,-,Q QMWQQ M? mf, ,,- mi- , -A .9 . .. . , ."f.1 ff "" ' .. - ,.

Miss Chamberlain has been connected with the State Superlntendent's otllce tor several years. So efhclent was her work as assistant State Superintendent during the term of Mrs. May L. Scott Worthman, that in obedience to the popular demand, she was nominated for State Superintendent on the Republican ticket, and elected by a large majority in the lyear 1906 and re- elected in the year 1908. She has done a very great amount of good for the schools of the state of Idaho by her effective work in her department. She has always been much interested in the affairs of the Albion State Normal and has done much to further the growth of the school. Buarh nt Iltrustzes Tl1e Albion State Normal School is very fortunate in having a body of representative Idaho citizens as its board of trustees. The personell of the board is as follows: Hon. A. Lounsbury, Albion, CTerm expires March 5, 1915.1 Hon. C. J. Lisle, Richfield, fTerm expires March 5, 19155 Hon. L. Hansen, Rock Creek, Term expires March 5, 19135 Hon. Ji. T. Pence, Boise, fTO1'lIl expires March 5, 1913i Hon. Jos. Y. Haight, Albion, fTerm expires March 5, 19.11.J Hon. W. N. Shilling, Rupert, QTerm expires March 5, 19111 Mr. Lounsbury has been a resident of Cassia county for a number of years, and has occupied many prominent otiices in both city and county government. At present he is county treasurer and Mayor of Albion. He has always been a great friend of the school and did particularly effective Work for it before the legislature last Winter. I Mr. Lisle, While a comparatively new man in the state, has the true Idaho spirit and takes a great interest in the affairs of the school. He is joint editor of the Idaho Leader and Richfield Recorder with Mr. E. T. Barber, formerly a member of the faculty of this school, and is making an enviable reputation as a newspaper man. Mr. Hansen has been president of the board ever since his first appointment, five years ago, and no man has taken a great- er interest in the scl1ool. Mr. Hansen 's standing at home is best shown by the fact that for thirty consecutive years he has been justice of the peace in his home precinct. Mr. Pence has been a member of the board for six years and has done very much toward making it the successful school which it is. Mr. Pence was elected Mayor of Boise on the Dem- ocratic ticket this spring, he being the only democrat elected, as Boise is republican by an immense majority. He and his partner, ex-Governor J. T. Morrison, have a very successful law practice in the capital city. Mr. Haight, also, has been a member of the board for six years during all of which time he has filled the difficult position of secretary of the board. Mr. Haight has been prominent in the government of the county for many years and has been county auditor, recorder and clerk of the court for the past six years, his term expiring in 1911. Mr. Shilling is an old time resident of the Northwest and has had much experience in public business at different times having been a member of the governing board of the following public institutions: University of Utah, Ogden Public Schools, Idaho Industrial School and Albion State Normal. Mr. Shil- ling has had a varied experience having come to the Northwest as a telegraph operator in the early days. He sent in the first news of the Custer Massacre. Some of his experiences with the Indians are particularly interesting. 1 908 QBur jfacultp PRCF. C. E.

Mae Isaacson, a bright, beaming Senior, was born in the East, but early left the plains and determined to make her home in the mountains. The climate and alti- tude wrought great changes in her, all for the best. Soon after arriving at her new home she became a leader of society and a school enthusiast. Her interest in edu- cation carried her through three success- ful years in the Bellevue High School. Then, imbued with the desire to become a teacher she left for Albion, bringing with her good recommendations and much praise from the Bellevue faculty. While she has been here she has proved herself worthy the reputation she always carries and which we hope will continue through life. She is liked by everyone, a strenuous worker and a pleasant compan- ion. Even the children adore her and for this reason her success as a teacher ls plainly evident. All were glad to see her come. All will be sorry to see her go. But wherever she ls or wherever she goes our best wishes are with her. Svenior Qlllass Y ll 1 - I x an MISS MAE ISAACSON ,R.n,- -. 4- .1 1 , ,Ll , h' .

She had graduated at the Iowa State Col- lege in 1907 with the degree of B. S. and was a teacher in the Pocatello ,Public School in 1907-1908. She dld not have heavy work so when she was offered a position in the Buhl Schools she accepted and taught from January untll April and with marked success. She has accepted a position in the Pocatello Schools for next year: She is business manager of the annual and vice-president of the class. ARTHUR WILLARD Senior Qflass ARTHUR WILLARD. "The man worth while is the man who can smile, When everything goes dead wrong." In 1906 Mr. Willard entered our school for the nrst time. In a short time he left to accept a position in the Elba School where he was a marked success. This year he again entered the school. His credits from the Cheney Normal, which he at- tended, placed him in the Senior Class with light work for the year. During the year he taught a four months school at Elba and returned to graduate with his class. He is energetic and enthusias- tic. He enjoys talking, running bluffs, and working people. If necessary he can work himself. He has won success on both gridiron and diamond. He is very popular and during his stay at the Normal has won many friends and made no enimles. Name Joe Gibbs.

The life and work of each class is so incorporated in that of the others, that it Would be impossible to compile a class history without refer- ence to all. The Freshmen, Sophmores and Juniors lean upon the Seniors as younger brothers do upon the older. So, too, the Seniors derive much good from the lower but steadily rising c asses. The chief source of this beneiicent influence is found in the opposition existing between classes. In fact the Seniors of Naughty-Nine only laugh at the wily Juniors who think to overthrow them by constant work and strategy. Little do the cooing Juniors think that their efforts furnish the material on which the Seniors grow and stretch above them. Thus we say, "All hail to the intrigues of Freshmen, Sophmores and Jun- iors." - In September, 1908, when the A. S. N. S. began another year 's work, everyone looked around for some benign Senior on whom he might hurl his thunder bolts. But such a personage was hard to find as another year had been added to the course and it was a question whether there would be a graduating class at all. But yes, four bright-eyed seniors soon greeted the eyes of the beseeching students and faculty-four diligent and energe- tis students who were destined to do much lin shaping the events of the coming year. Early in September the 'first class meeting was held at which plans were arranged for the year 's work. To this meeting tl1e Normal owes the publication of the first annual in the scl1ool's history. The class acting with high aspirations, planned a paper equally as good as those got out by the more fully experienced institutions. With Arthur Willard as editor in chief, Florence Rea business manager, Joe Gibbs and May Isaacson supervisors of correspondence the Work of the paper Went gradually on. It was a great task indeed for such a small class, but by holding regular class meetings, en- couraging one another and Working with an indomitable will a successful paper was the fruit of their untiring efforts. The entire school contributed wonderfully to the success of the an- nual and thus showed their appreciation of the class. In school athletics the Senior class was Well represented, both boys playing on the foot-ball and base-ball teams. In the many games undertaken and victories Won, the members of the class assisted greatly in bringing glory to the school and never once failed to uphold their reputation for integrity. In the declamatory and oratorical contest Arthur Willard and Florence Rea took important positions and defended the honor of the class. This class being the most advanced in school, began the year 's social activities by treating the Juniors and members of the faculty to a glorious spread. The evening was profitably and enjoyably spent as were many others following in succes- sion. The class being so small, party diversions were impossible and all Worked harmoniously together. To this fact is attri- buted the successful culmination of everything entered upon by the '09 Class. Of course it has had its ups and downs as all heretofore have had, and all hereafter Will. Yet When- ever thrust back it has striven to regain the front and so it will continue until the term closes. JOE GIBBS Class Historian. rThe J u n i 0 r Aggregation ng- N I I A .

The Qctihities of the Eluniur Glass The Juniors are all very energetic and the class has been well represented in contests both literary and athletic and leaves a record which it is by no means ashamed of. We will speak first of the literary work, dividing it into three parts: the debating, the oratorical and the declamatory contests. In debating three of our members, James Mahoney, Triphosa Pratt and Lyman Smith won places on the two first teams and Miss Florence Pratt took an active part in the debating work. In oratory Mr. Mahoney has the most brilliant record, having won first place in the southeastern part of the state in the fall, and represented the Normal at Boise. This spring he also won first place in the school in the contest of original ora- tions. Last year Mr. Smith won first place in the oratorical contest and Mr. Hagar second place. Miss Chadwick also represented the class very well in this contest. In the declamatory contests Miss Ackerley has received the most honors. She was awarded the gold medal in the contest two years ago last spring and also last spring, and last fall she represented the school in dramatic work in the first inter- schoolastic contest, and has won second place several times. Miss Florence Pratt stands next, having repre- sented the Normal last fall at Twin Falls in the humorous declamatory contest. Edna Barber has also been interested in contest work and twice has been awarded second place. , On the athletic field Mr. Mahnken and Mr. Ha- gar stand out very prominently. Both played on the foot-ball team that won the championship two years ago and championship of the southeastern part this year. They also played on the winning base-ball team two years ago and on last year's team. On the basket-ball team this year which made such an excellent record and lacked only one goal of winning the championship of the southern part of the state, Miss Florence Pratt played forward and Miss Turner guard. Miss Tripllosa Pratt and Miss Ackerly played on the second team. Among other interests of the school are the Y. W.'C. A. of which Miss I-Iinchlilf was president but was lately replaced by Miss Triphosa Pratt, also the Glee Club, Misses Fox, Ackerly and Bar- ber are members and Miss Fox is also the pianist for that musical body. Rose Turner. Edna Barber Sluniur Glass iblstnrp Come, O thou greatest weapon, muse And tell to all the glad old story Of the Senior Class of 1910. So to thy Work, old Pen. We Juniors cannot boast of having been tutored by the Albion State Normal since we left the Gram- mar grade, as some will do, at least the majority of us cannot, for we came from distant schools where we grew up under a familiar regieme and Hnally bursting the bonds that bound us to the old home place, we fled far away to a distant val- ley where: The noble Harrison stands supreme and proud. Ruling like a lord the surrounding plains, Yet yielding water to man 's benefit. Here the weary Wanderers stopped and found a school, whose portals ever stood open to the thirst- ing youth. Our class soon became the leaders in the school, by their devotion to study and contest work. The Juniors ever obtained. admiring glances from the failing eyes of the Seniors, and as for the little Freshies, they simply adored us and endeav- ored to fulfill all our simplest wishes as tho they were imperative commands, but such a position is not suddenly reached. The heights by great men reached and kept Were not attained by sudden flight. But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night. This we have accomplished and this we mean to keep. Since entering the State Normal great changes have passed over this body of students, N o longer differing in manners, customs and edu- cation, they have been brought together as a unit- ed whole which acts together in time of need. If important questions arise the Juniors in a body can decide it. Even the astute Seniors ask advice of the younger grade. But this is not all. We have become possessed with an idea of becoming worthy pedogogues to Idaho 's growing gems and when this body of stu- dents shall have entered the field as teachers a tremendous revolution will be felt. Education is our theme and Excelsior is our mot- to. Our history does not involve complex situations, nor is it finished, in fact, we are just beginning to make history. We have envolved from humbler situations and positions and day by day we are going forward. We are just in our prime, full of life, vigorous and eager to accomplish great things while our battle cry, "Ever Onward," increases our desire to attain some great height from which we may look down on the world of men, and say: "Reach the height that we have reached." "Make the fight that we have made and gather in the pearls." ' ' Finis J J. LYMAN SMITH.

Third Years! Ulbirh year Qlllass Qctihities The Third Year class has its share of partici- pants in the school activities. In basket ball We have been ably represented by Eva Minear and Vada Helsley. In the boys' team by Ed Jones, who was a very strong player. ' On the diamond We claim James Hitt at second base, Ray Pierson, short stop, Ed Jones, center field and Ray Bedke substitute. Out of the five boys who are in our class, four are athletes and good ones too. In the debating team a third year student was one of the alternates. . One fourth of the members of the Glee Club .be- long to this class, and the melodies may be heard in the hall at almost any time of the day. These are by name Vada Helsley, Eva Minear and Ellen Larsen. We might ask what would the society plays have been Without Vada Helsley and Lulu Rum- baugh in "The Elopment of Ellen," and Ellen Larsen in "As Good as Gold!" In fact the question may Well be asked-"How could the A. S. N. S. possibly exist without the members of the third year class! Glass of '11 On the sixth day of September, '05 punctually at 9:00 a. m. there assembled in what is now Room J the class of '11, VVe were forty-four in number ranging in age from twelve to eighteen. We look- ed and acted much the same as any other eighth- grade class only we were accompanied by that feeling of awe which every one has when first en- tering a Normal school. We were fortunate enough to have Miss Hansen for a teacher. She was the best, the cleverest and most patient woman on earth. She left us on Thanksgiving and her place was taken by Miss Mark. She remained with us the rest of the year. It is a mystery how we "preps" ever lived thru those nine long months without being trampled in- to an early grave by the seniors. We were noth- ing in their eyes and the only reason they per- mitted us to exist at all was, they were ashamed to let the world know they had even taken notice of such inferior beings. We "preps" had a worse fate than any class before us and no more such treatment will ever be administered, for the "preps " are now on a footing with all. .The majority of the class finished the eighth grade in the spring of '06 and Went joyously home for vacation with wonderful dreams of the fresh- men year. The next September a few of the old members came back and a great many new ones to help bear the burden of a freshmen class. There were thirty nine of us, from every part of the state. Of course We were supposed to represent every thing in the verdant shades, but We organized early in October, electing Don Sndweeks, president. A lavender and white banner was purchased, several yells learned and a motto adopted. We were now recog- nized as "fit to live" and reside on the same lad- der of fame with the seniors, though of course a rung or two lower. September '07 saw only a few of the originally large class back again at the Normal. Our Presi- dent did not return, but was down on the Twin Falls tract dreaming of the happy home that was soon to be his. Mr. Snodgrass was elected Presi- dent and has remained leader of our band since. This year passed in the ordinary manner and we parted in June, wondering how many of our class mates we should ever see again. The next September, '08, only .eleven of the for- ty-four beginners remained, five boys and six girls. They solemnly took up the work of the third year and with a patient look on their faces are hoping some day to graduate. 4 bnphnmnre Glass Sopbnmure QBBYSDIIBIIB His face is of the doubtful kind lieda Burstrom That wins the eye and not the mind.

Each face glowed with the thought of five years of life, that were to be enriched by all the woes, experiences, and tragedies which life at school alone can bring, while in eacl1 bright eye burned the desire to out-do in the race any previous Freshman Class in the annals of history. Early in the year the Freshies met and adopted as their class motto, "Honesta Quam Splendida' '-Colors: Crimson and white, their flower the beautiful carnation. They unanimously elected as President Arthur Haight, Secretary, Vera Pierson, Treasurer, Price Sears. In athletics the Freshies have done themselves proud. Hav- ing two members on the first Girls' Basket Ball team, and a well organized team in Boys' Basket Ball. They won the championship over the Preps, by a score of sixteen to nine. And the Sophs cancelled a game with them, showing they feared their dander. ' The Freshmen have in their midst a Milton, who promises to tread in greater paths of fame than Milton, the poet ever dreamed of. There is not one among this thrifty band of workers who, in the years to come, will not look back with fond pride upon his class of Nineteen Eight. Nix.

We have a large class of industrious patriotic pupils, and We feel that our Uncle Samuel and the Gem State of the Mountains, as Well as tl1e Albion Normal training school, have not heard the last of us. The class spirit shown here has taught us the great les- sons of loyalty and responsibility which We shall need in our normal years. Individually, we, the members of the prepara- tory department, are not Without ambitions, and ideals. Among us are those who aspire to be mer- chants, book keepers, farmers, druggists, engin- eers, music teachers, artists, nurses. Others Wish to be traveling news paper reporters, lawyers, lee- turers, statesmen, and one Wishes to be known as a poet. In closing We desire to thank our teachers who have so patiently administered to our educational needs, as a preparatory department and hope We shall meet them all next year. And verily we say unto you our future shall be successful and bright. As our past has ben triumphant and right. 4 4 f 4 . ii" ff 313 J n , ggg 5 ,,m,:f"""'f?N5.+X X b ' -5 , ix FN 4, , w ' rx?

Mr. Barber was a meni- ber of the faculty from 1901 to 1905 and was con- nected with the school longer than any other pro- fessor at the time he severed his connection with the school to go into the newspaper bnsinessol' which he has made a great success. He is now a lflelllljel' of the Firm of Lisle 8 Barber, publishers of the Hld21ll0 Leader" and the "Richfield Recor- der." There is no one better known to the alumni of the early years of the school. PROF. R-. C. THOMPSON Member of Faculty 1905-1908 N ow Member of Faculty of State University of Nevada When Prof. R. C. Thompson resigned his position as Instructor of Latin and Ger- man in the Albion State Normal School, to accept an offer from the University of Ne- vada, both Faculty and students felt the loss to be well nigh irreparable. His unus- ual versatility had made him invaluable. No man in the state excelled him along his special lines, Latin and History. N0 other man had done so much'for the Nor- mal in building up its reputation for an i11- vincible foot-ball team, possessed of irre- proachable honor. He did more than any other man to establish the Inter-scholastls League of Southern Idaho, and was its President until he left the state. He was- it not the originator-at least a mighty up- holder of what is known as "Albion Spirit" --a spirit of honor undeflled, courage 11n- daunted, and persistence unlimited. Per- haps no finer thing can be said of Mr. Thompson than this-that the least sha- dow of an untruth, in any form whatso- ever, is absolutely ipmossible in him. Add to this abroad, fine essence or Christianity, and you will understand how his influence for good can not easily be paralled. He entered the Normal as Instructor in History and Latin in September, 1905. In 1907 an increased Facility made it possi- ble for him to drop the History, and teach Latin and German. In every interest of the Institution, he was most active and energetic, taking an especially useful part in the guidance of the two literary socie- ties throughout his stay. In all contest whatsoever, athletic or academic, he was a most earnest and efficient worker-young debaters and orators owing him a big debt of gratitude. We are heartily grateful for the inspira- tion he left with us, and predict success for him, wherever he is, whatever he does. -42 0 o -N IKFQMJ s f. ci: " v-' Will.

ART VVILLARD. Elnkzsmflllontinueh It has been a problem Why Professor Stenquist did not take His usual English lesson Thursday, October 22, '08, but We Have found out that Prof. Bauman had the preparatory Students in Miss Van Boskirk's room. One of the Freshman girls asked Mr. Hunter if he was lone- Some and he said, "No, did you want to come down and Talk to me?" February 13, 1909-The day the faculty had their pictures Taken on the Normal steps and broke the plate. Mable Cornish QSophmoreJ-What do you do when your nose itches? Miss Anderson Clilreshmanl-I usually scratch it. What do you do? Mable-I let it go, as scratching doesn't do any good. Mr. Axline in political economy-"Miss Isaacson, what is a trunk line railroad?" Miss I-"lt's a railroad that carries trunks." A change is good for every one. That is the reason Edna Barber changed from one WV ard to the other Ward. The other morning in English Miss Van Boskirk called on True- lock Walie to explain the different uses of 'like' and 'love.' He gave the following ones:-' 'I like Pratt, but I love Rumbaugh. " MES Smith-"Truelock, which girl shall I get for you, Pratt or ox?" Truellcick-"Oh, either one, they would both be delighted to go wit me." Found by Mr. Stenquist-Miss Martin and Iverson on the Nor- mal steps, soulfully gazing into each other's eyes.

Mr. Stenquist, in Chemistry-"I think if I'd turn this into a sleeping room you 'd all like it better. Mr. Johnson, which would you prefer, a sofa or an arm chair?" Mr. J ohnson-Uh, either would do. I guess you had better get both for me. " Prof. Sten-"Miss Turner, what did the text say about this acid?" Miss Turner-"It said it would be discussed further in the next chapter."' Miss Martin-"Do tell!"-Favorite amusement of dining room girls--hibernating. Miss Leonard-HMr. Stenquist, what makes you stand in front of the bank so much?" Mr. Stenquist--"Because there is money in it." Miss Fox-"Girls, don't you think I look swell in this new silk dress?" Miss Linville-"O, do come and look at that beautiful sky -Why it is just perfectly ravishing. I believe I would go crazy if that would last very long." While in the library of the Normal the other day I overheard this conversation between two girls of the dormitory: "How do you select stories?" asked one. "I have adopted a very simple method," said the other. "As I run over the latest things offered here, I glance at the last chapter. If l find the rain softly and sadly falling over two lonely graves, I know I dont want the storyg but if the morning sun is glimmering over bridal robes of white satin, I know the novel is all right." There are two girls in the Dormitory wl1o are great rivals, and this is a specimen of how they jolly each other now and then:- Eva-"Do you think it 's true that people catch anything through kissing? ' ' Ellen-"Oh, I dont think so. See how often you 've been kissed and you 've never caught anybody yet. " Mr. Bocock-"How do they get lobsters? Miss Zpevacek--"They have boys." Mr. Bocock-"B-O-Y-S?"

PHILOMATHEAN HALL Rbilumatbean Organized 1897. Society Colors-Crimson and Gold. Motto-"Non Scholae Sed Vitae." The Philomathean Society, though having fewer members than the sister society, has the older and more earnest workers, and for that reason the standard of work is considered very high. In the past few years since the society has been doing its best work, it has usually produced the majority of the seniors and this year the senior class is com- posed entirely of Philomatheans. After the hall was given to the society by the school, the members began in earnest to improve the appearance of it. The first improvement was a piano won by the members in a track meet, when Dr. Ellis was President of the school. In a few years the hall was furnished with a beautiful vel- vet carpet and at the same time papered with dark green ingrain to match the carpet. The boys then saw need of a president's table and secretary's desk and using their skill in manual training fitted out the society with these. In the year 1907, the society was able to buy a frieze, The Della Robbia Singing Boys, which now makes the so- ciety hall the prettiest in the building. In the spring of 1908 new curtains were purchased, thus making the hall complete in every respect. Each year a play is given by a few members of the society chosen by the executive committee. Our plays are always up to the standard of the other work done in the society. The "Philo" members engage in all contests along literary lines and always win a place of honor. The only interestate contest ever won for the Albion State Normal School was won, in a de- clamatory contest at Pocatello in 1907, by a Philo- mathean, Melvin Read, who is now attending Utah Agricultural college. The banner won by him now hangs in the President's office. The humor- ous contest was won by a "Philo," Florence Pratt. This year there were two teams chosen to repre- sent the school in debating. Two "Philos" and one "Emo" on the affirmative. Two "Emos" and one "Philo" on the negative. The Philomathean society has great prospects for the future. The new clubs, debating and boost- ing, will be joined by many of the members of the society who will hold an influential part in them. As the future prospects for our school are large so we are certain our society will grow in proportion. y Henry Mahnken Edna Barber John Hillman Mae Isaacson Lydia Morgan Floyd Gallogly Paul Disney Anna Kunter Rose Turner Nevda Helsley Ellen Chatburn Verna Scrivner Edmund Barker Effie Chadwick Joseph Gibbs Eva Minear Vesta WVinkler Ina Scrivner Price Sears Hilmer Carlson :I-Blemhers Lois VWl19GlG1' Frank 'Dotson Sarah Pinnock Jessie DeViney Hinchlilfe Blodgett Nellie Cyrus Florence Pratt Leslie Meachem Triphosa Pratt Lulu Rumbaugh Tlida Silkey Arthur VVillard Rose Zpevacek Florence Rea Agnes Hutchinson Fred Parish Maud Hitt Maud Fox Leda Burstrom A To the 1BiJiIns A There are societies of fame That are spread the Wide World thru, But there are really very few That by the Philos are not tame. This society's most noted For its earnestness and strength And its essays of great length, Which everywhere are knownand quoted. We also have some hot debates On subjects current and of interest, By debators of the very best- Tho they sometimes cut their dates. Besides debates are declamations, Some given with great declamatic skill, Some humorous and others still, And sometimes great orations. We also study the great men Who today and days gone by Have given the Wherewithal to ply Our trades as noble men and Women. Then some of our society Work Is given up to Worthy boasting, For there 's no lazy roasting On the fields and by the brooks. When in Albion there is a boom And We know that 'tis not vain, But some day there will be a train To take us to a distant hom.e - Some, inspired by the Muse Give us verses well Worth While. Hut do not think they're in this style, For 'Ii have not yet found my Muse. There 's also music very sweet, Furnished by the dilterent members Who kindly give us special Il'l111llJ0l"S-- But well for us these tunes are fleet. And then we have a critic, too, Who is usually very gracious, But sometimes when We make him n He tells us what We ought to do To make our work more serious, And censures us in words severe, But still We like him, and revere The patience he has with us. To take the Philos all in all, I think they are the very best With which tl1is world was ever blest And may their standard never fall.

EMERSON IAN HALL Zbistorp of the Qlimersnnian Svnrietp The Emersonian society, which is the oldest so- ciety in the school was organized in the year 1896 with only fourteen charter members. The first meeting was called in the first floor of the old rock building, and here they elected the first set of officers, the first president being John 0. liowe, who has taken a course in the dental department of the Northwestern University, of Chicago, Illi- nois, and is now practicing and is a successful dentist of Oakley, Idaho. The Hrst secretary was Miss Elison CMrs. Estella Haightl who was an earnest worker while she was connected with the society. The following are the names of the char- ter members. Stephen Parke, John O. llowe, .Tohn Clook, Ber- tha Hansen, Edith Howell, Arthur Miller, lilva Conover, Maude Kelley, Reuben Beecher, May Leavitt, George Cook, liee Fisher, Flstella Elison and Ada Rice. Mr. Parke is at the present time Principal of the Twin Falls High School and has gained for himself an excellent reputation. Mr. Fisher is a lawyer and 1 know that all Emersonians wish him success. Miss Bertha Hansen was the lirst one of the charter members to graduate from the school. She was graduated in the year 1898, being the only one in the class. She taught for some time but later served as deputy auditor and recorder of Cassia county for two years. Before the society was organized there was an elocution class to which the students belonged, and it was a ruling of the school that each student should give some literary work in the chapel at different times during the year. But when the so- ciety was organized those joining it were not re- quired to give the literary work in the chapel and as the Emersonian system of elocution was used in the school at that time, that name was chosen for the society, and the members of today are more than pleased with the appropriate name which they selected. The society from its very beginning has been an honor to the school and there is no doubt but that it will continue to be, so long as there is such a thing a sthe Albion State Normal School. The society first adopted for its rules "Robert's Rules of Order," which they continued to use until 1901, when they changed to "Cushings, Boiled Down." But since the Emersonians have the reputation of being wide awake and always having the best of everything, they soon discovered their mistake in changing rules, and in 1904 reverted to Robert 's Rules. Wlieii the Philomathean society was organized in the fall of 1897, all that were old members of the lilmersonian society remained as such. From the remainder of the student body there were as many members selected according to their standard in the school for the Philomathean as there were members in the Emersonian. All that were left oven after this selection were divided alphabetically, that is, if there were two students whose names began with "B" one be- came an Emersonian and the other a Philomath- can. l Our society at the beginning met in the rock building, and from there they went to different rooms in the main building, meeting one Friday in the room in which the piano was, and rendering a literary program, and the next Friday in one of the other rooms, and on such days the program would consist of al debate. But we are proud that we new have a hall of our own where we can meet each Friday evening and also that it ranks second to none in the school for beauty and comfort. It was during the year of 1907-1908 that it was fresh- ly papered and new curtains and window shades were purchased. Our piano, bought in 1906-1907 is now paid for. These improvements add greatly to the beauty of our hall. Next year we will be able to purchase a new carpet. All will then be practically new. During the last two years the membership of the society has increased greatly. The members are, a number of them, young, but they do good work and are loyal to the society. In the last year the contest work, such as de- bating, declamation, oratory, etc., has been chiefly won by the Emersonians. In the debating team, 1 the champion team of southern Idaho! two were Emersoniansg of the Declamatory team two were Emersoniansg and the winner of the original ora- torical contest was an Emersonian. This shows that the "Emos',' are not slow, and, altho two years ago many were young members, that they can "do things." Of the Albion State Normal Or- chestra fifteen of the twenty are Emersonians. of the Albion State Normal Cadet Band ten of the nineteen are Emersonians. See what a part they play in the school! We are noted for our splendid plays, one of which is given each year by some of the members who are chosen by the instructor. These plays are given for the purpose of supporting the so- ciety and improving the hall. Our present critic is Prof. Knipe, who is a great worker for the good of the society and encourages the members a great deal. Our critics do not stay with us but ten weeks and we only hope that our next critic pleases us as well as Prof. Knipe. Miss Ellen Larsen is our present president and she has shown herself fully competent to hold this honored place. This short history is intended to give the reader some idea of the working of the Emersonian so- ciety and of the progress we are continually mak- ing. HILLA COOPER.

Orchestra Decision of Judges. Eehating 'Of all the student activities, considered from either intellectual or athletic standpoint, this de- partment stands first, and it should stand first. "Tell me," said Goeth, "What your young men of twenty are thinking about, and I will tell you the future of the state." Men in public life have attested again and again to the value of debating Societies as one of the most effective means to train young citizens in civil and national affairs. It is not enough to have an idea, but you must be able to express that idea in good, forcible English III order to give that idea motive power. Debating SIVGS the students training in self-control, formas tion of correct habits of speech, power to organize thought and ability to recognize sound reasoning. The schools in the inter-Schoolastic League in Southeastern Idaho are the high schools at Twin Falls, Pocatello, Blackfoot, Idaho Falls, the Acad- emies of Rexburg and Pocatello and the Albion Normal School. The Subject for debate was: "Resolved, that Idaho should by a constitutional amendment adopt a system of initiative and re- ferendum similar to that of Article IV of the Con- stitution of Oregon." Each school prepared an ftfiirmative team and a negative team, the rule be- lllg that the former team remain at home and the latter team go meet the outside school. The above question was Hrst debated in the Emersonian and Philomathean Societies. Later thirteen students entered the final try-out and of this number the following teams were chosen: Affirmative: John Hillman, Triphosa Pratt and Charles M-abbutt, with Ellen Larsen as alternate Negative: F. B. Dotson, James Mahoney and J. Lyman Smith with Frank Johnson as alternate. The final contest to determine the championship of southeastern Idaho was held March 19, 1909 at Rexburg. The negative team as given abovewon, and gave Alibon the much coveted championship. The debating work has been entirely in tue hands of Prof. Louis A.

On the other hand we again see ourselves smiling, pro- bably behind our sleeves, at some people who have been fortunate, Cas they thinkl thru some good work of superstitious. I Superstition is said to be the excessive rever- ence for, or fear of, that which is unknown or mys- terious. Superstitions have begun far back in past history. The ancient Greeks and Romans feared their gods whenever they misbehaved. Certainly, this is a good example of superstitious. But do these people live in the same fear now? No, they have outgrown. . The ancient Celts believed and had faith in the Unknown, in this case God. Their ordeals, the System of punishment, required a pure faith and trust in God to pronounce the criminal guilty or Ullguilty. After the rise of Christianity and thro, the medium of the Reformation and Renaissance these ancient and peculiar beliefs were abandoned. There are many popular superstitious of today. many of which are not common to all. Almost QYGTY community has several which are totally different from the neighboring one. However, there are some which are common to almost every 0I1e,.as for instance, If you put anything on wrong Slde out and leaving it on, good luck will result. Breaking a looking glass will bring bad' luck, for Seven years, killing a frog will bring ram. ' . Probably those not quite so common will be more Interesting. ,Since we- are indulging in supersti- tlons just for amusement none of these need to be taken in earnest. , When I was a little girl I found that supersti- ii0ns could not be too foolish for the Catholics to believe. A queer, old lady used to tell me that if ,l would fast all day on the 24th of December J would that night see small, golden pigs crawling on the ceiling. NVhat a pity superstitious ever exist! After I. told my neighbors about it we used to waste our energy trying to study out how all this could happen. I-flow often then we would wish we could only leave the food alone for that day and be rewarded at night by that wonderful vision. l. might also cite an instance where superstitious were of some value. Once a girl had short, thin hair. No amount of cutting would do it any good. Finally another old lady suggested that this girl should trim her hair off every month at the time of the new moon. Rhoda formed a habit and for almost a year she waited patiently for the new moon. By that time her hair had become beauti- ful. flt was thick a11d long and where she had once worn small, attenuated pig-tails, she now wore her hair braided and encircling her head sev- eral times. Undoubtedly she thought the new moon was the cause oi the rapid growth. How- ever, we came to the conclusion that it was not the moon but the regular cuttings. Of course the new moon was and is as regular as anything else but many other 1'egular occurences could have been substituted for it. Thus it is seen that superstitious may or may not bring about that which is said that they would. Time is only needed to prove that foolishness of them. Once upon a time we were firm believers in witchcraft, but that has now been completely wiped out. And. so, today, the various scientific proofs and teachings are bringing to light the absurdity of other beliefs. Soon we will be able to find that all. we believe will be pure and sound truth and nothing but the truth. Zlaunchp Mit By Hillarcl K. Cooper One day late in the fall, a small hunchback boy was walking along the street shivering in the cold wind. He was just wondering where he was go- ing to get his supper when a man drove up in a buggy, jumped out and throwing the lines to Tim, said "Here kid, hold my horse 'til I come back." Tim gladly stepped forward to take hold of the lines and the man went inside the large building just in front of them. Tim wrapped the lines around his arm and put his hands in his pocket to warm them. He stood there about fifteen minutes when the man came out. He dropped something in the boy's hand and jumping in the buggy rode quickly away. The loy moved over in the light to see what the man had given him and, there to his great surprise, he saw in his hand two bright dimes. This was more than he had ever had at one time before in his life. He soliquized thus: "I bet I have a swell sup- per to night, I can buy a cupof hot coffee, a plate of baked. beans and some biscuits and still have ten cents left for tomorrow. I tell you that 'er man what give this money was a dandy." He started towards the restaurant and had got about half way when he saw two little boys, smal- ler than himself. They were very thinly clad and were very cold. They looked at him appealingly and he walked up to them and said. "Cold?" " 'Betcher life". was the answer that came from between the chattering teeth of the larger of the two. "Hungry? " asked Tim. U 'Betcher life" answered the spoksman of the other two. "What's yer name? Mine 's Tim Mulligon," volunteered Tim. " The boys call me Brick Top and him Speckledn answered the larger boy again. "Well," said Tim, "I'm not rich but I suppose l Kin put up a lunch for three ter-night. I have twenty cents and that will buy quite a lunch. Shall we do?" 'fWell l should say so," cried both boys in unison. Tim went into the restaurant and in a short time came out with some things under his arm and called: "Foller me an' 'llll take ye to a place Wl191'6 we can eat this and be comfortablef' He led the way to an old deserted lumber shack about twelve by twelve feet and there spread the things on a box for them to, eat. In a short time they had eaten all of the food and nothing' remained but the things the lunch had been calmed i11. Tim then turned to the others and said, "I guess there is room for three under those blankets." They crept under and were soon asleep. But there was not enough blanket for three and about eleven o 'clock Tim awoke and found that he was very cold. He began to think he was going to die and he wanted to, so he thought he would pray. Did he know God? Yes, for there was once a kind lady who told him ofthe Almighty God who loves all poor little boys without homes, food or clothing, Tim raised on l1is knees, clasped his hands and there--"Dear God, if there is any place in Heaven for a poor "hunchy" like me, I would like to go. Please take me. Amen." Then he lay down again and some how he felt Wa1'1ner. Then he passed into that delicious sleep from which there is no awakening and poor little "I-lunchy Tim" had found a home at last, a home where he would know no more of hunger and and where all would be bright and happy. L 012132 !lBiamnnh Afiecklace By Harriet Church Robert De Monyal was a young Frenchman who had recently come into the society circle of La Grande. Ile was a dashing young man, and had created quite a sensation among the younger set when he first entered their circle, but as valuable articles began to disappear, one after another, he was l0oked upon with suspicion, a11d accused of theft, though he could never be caught in doing the Sllghtest thing of this kind. Still a strong suspic- IOI1 rested on him and this he was fully aware of. .lt was about three weeks after he was first sus- Dlcioned that the announcement of Mrs. Du Pont's large ball was announced. The main purpose of this affair was that Mrs. Du -Pont Ca rich young widowl might display the family jewels which were usually kept in a vault fOr safety. The most valuable of these jewels was a magni- ficent diamond necklace of immense value. Mrs. llu I'ont's friends had begged her not to Wear this necklace, saying they feared it would disappear as so many articles had done lately, but She assured them that she would carefully watch the necklace and she really must wear it as this was intended to be the most fashionable a'l'l'air of the season and of course she must be at her best. u Several daysbeforevthe ball, Monseuir ,De Mon- lyal came to Mrs. Du Pont and begged her to hire 21 detective to protect her jewels. "I suppose," said he to Mrs. Du Pont you know that I am suspicioned of having taken the ar- ticles which have lately disappeared and if your Hecklace should be taken I would of course be ae- CUSed of taking it. I do notwish to be put in Such an embarrassing position so in order that 0Verything may go well I ask you to hire a de- tective. I wish to attend this ball but cannot do so unless you have someone to watch the jewels as .l would certainly be pointed out as the thief if they were taken and of course you know that would be very unpleasant to me." . Mrs. Du Pont consented to this plan and prom- ised to secure a good detective. . On a back street in a small two roomed house lived a young woman known as Miss Bessie Gray. She was small in stature, quick in her motions, had wide open eyes and always wore a merry smile. ' Miss Gray claimed to be an orphan and .lived by herself in this small house, doing nursing as a means of earning her bread and butter. At present she was taking care of Mrs. Du Pont 's little boy. He had been very cross today and as she sat idly sipping a cup of tea by the stove in her little room she was wondering how much longer she would have to keep this tire- some work up. "But never mind," she said half aloud, Hpehaps my time will come some day Robert is doing all he can and I am sure I am doing my part and who knows but that we may be as rich as Mrs. Du Pont herself someday." She half chuckled to herself and her thoughts wandered dreamily into a maze of diamonds and glittering jewels. A knock at the door somewhat startled her. She arose and opened it and to her surprise saw Mrs. Du Pont standing there. "Good evening, Miss Gray," said Mrs. Du Pont. "You undoubtedly think it strange to see me here at this hour but I came to make a special re- quest of you. I was so busy with my social duties today that I forgot to mention it to you and as I was out driving I thought I would stop in and tell you. You .know I am to give my grand ball tomorrow evening and wear the family jewels." Mrs. Du Pont did not notice the strange light that leaped into Bessie 's gray eyes. "Of course," she continued, "I will have a detective to watch the jewels, but still to be perfectly safe I want you to come earlier than usual and put Jamie to sleep. Then after he is asleep I want you oc- casionally to come to the head of the stairs and glance trough the crowd. You will be unnoticed and if you see any one attempting to steal the jewels give the alarm at once." Will you do this for me, Miss Gray?" Bessie Gray assured Mrs. Du Pont that she would be glad to give her any assistance she needed, so Mrs. Du Pont left the door with a greatful smile and heaved a sigh of relief as she stepped into her carriage. She could wear the necklace now without feeling uncomfortable. The evening of the great event had arrived at last and there was a great stir at the Du Pont mansion Mrs. Du Pont glanced at herself in the long mirror as the last finishing touches were being added to her toilet and half smiled as she thought to herself, "Mrs. Bellevue will not out do me tonight. She may be a trifle handsomer than I but she will never have the jewels to offset it. Ah! I shall reign queen tonight. I wonder what Monseur De Monyal will think of the necklace?" Even though she was somewhat suspicious of hin., his handsome face attracted her and she wished to be equally attractive to him and took great de- light in dazzling him with her beauty H U 1 ll 1 i if if 'K Miss Gray had come early as she had promised, and had been trying for an hour to get the spoiled Jamie to sleep. But Jamie absolutely refused to go to sleep and Miss Gray in a fit of despair called in Mrs. Du Pont. 4 "Oh dear!" exclaimed Mrs. Du Pont "is he going to annoy me this evening? ,I am beginning to have a headache already and the evening will just be spoiled for me if I don't quiet my nerves. Do for pity's sake give him something to keep him quiet." "I have some soothing syrup in my little hand bag," said Bessie Gray, "shall I give him some of that?" "Yes, anything to keep him quiet" said Mrs. Du Pont, as she hurried down the broad stair- way to receive her guests. JK 411 if If lk i i ll If The evening was passing very successfully and Mrs. Du Pont 's diamonds were the main topic of discussion and many an admiring glance was cast toward her. Even Mrs. Bellevue paid her compliments. though, in her heart she secretly wished that jew- els were entirely out of fashion, as a flash from Mrs. Du Pont 's necklace put her pearls, which had always been coveted by the social world, entirely in the shade. . Mrs. Du Pont was sitting in her chair smil- ing coquettishly at Robert De Moniyal as he spoke flattering words to her. A cry from Bessie brought her quickly to her feet. She rushed to the head of the stairs and asked, "Is it the necklace, Bessie?" "No, No," screamed Bessie Gray, "it's the boy-Jamie. He has been kidnapped. I left him asleep in his bed while I came out here in the hall and when I came back he was gone." The terrified mother ran into Jamie's room to see if he was really gone and the excited crowd tried to rush in after her. At this moment a shot was heard followed by another and Robert De Moniyal's voice rang out clear and strong, "Here he is, I see him, the kidnapper. Help! Help! We will catch him." The crowd eagerly rushed to the spot where Moniyal stood, but the kidnapper could not be seen q"He went out the door," shouted Robert De Moniyal, "quick and we will catch him yet." The frantic crowd rushed out the door in pur- su1t of the kidnapper forgetting all about their ball gowns and jewels in their excitement. At tl1e sound of shots Mrs. Du Pont fainted and Bessie Gray quickly unclasped the necklace and placed it in the bottle of soothing' syrup, which she had used to quiet Jamie earlier in the evening. Tl1e bottle was carefully put in her hand bag and she slipped out into the crowd unnoticed. Soon the people returned without any report of the kidnapper and to their utter astonishment found the lost Jamie in bed. "Oh, here he is, " exclaimed Robert De Moniyal, "the kidnapper heard tl1e shots and knew we were On his track. He was frightened lest he should be caught and returned the boy while we were Out in pursuit of him. Aha, he was very wise." The people were so excited that they accepted this statement without thinking any thing more about it. Now that Jamie had been found, Mrs. Du Pont was discovered lying on the carpet where she had fainted. After several moments had passed she was revived. The first thing she did after learn- llilg that Jamie was safe, was to put her hand to hr throat. B The necklace was gone! She littered a scream and went into another fainting spell. Every one of tl1e guests were searched but the necklace was not found and everyone came to the conclusion that the kidnapper had returned with tl1e hey and had used his opportunity to take the necklace. lt was strange that this time they did not sus- pect ,Robert ,De Moulyal as they usually did. Worn out searching for the necklace the guests departed, leaving many syrnpatllizing words for Mrs. Du Pont who lay unconscious in her bed where she had been put by Bessie Gray. Robert De Moniyal notified tl1e police and they immediatly set to searching for the missing neck- lace, of course never once suspecting him. All fllf Pl' if ll' . if fl! it 4? The next morning Robert De Moniyal sent a box of candy addressed to Miss Bell De Moniyol, this sisterj London, England. No one who saw the box ever dreamed that each chocolate drop contained a precious dia- mend. The police searched for days but never found any clue to the diamonds. Little did they know that tl1e jewels were far away, in safe keeping with Robert 'De Moniyal's sister and that he and Miss Bessie Gray Cwho was really his wife 1 intended to go to London the first god opportunity they had and to live the life of a Mrs. Du Pont.-lQl'ARRlE'l7 UH UNCH. wha' Qlhinn bpirit There is one great thing of the A. S. N. S. that is becoming known more and more all over the state and even farther than that, and that is the wonderful Albion Spirit. This striking virtue of the students and faculty of the A. S. N. S. has indeed won high honors. It is this which has inspired courage in the hearts of our athletes bef'ore they enter tl1e great games of baseball, football, basket-ball, debating, etc. Thru continous talking of Pres. Axline and other mem- bers of the faculty, the students have been filled with a love and loyalty for their school which is almost as strong as their sense of honor. Another thing which strengthened the Albion spirit was the narrow escape which the normal had from be- ing moved to Pocatello. During that week of crisis every one connected with tl1e school held his breath every time a message was received from Boise,rexpecting to hear of the passage of the fatal bill. And when the school emerged from this anx- iety every student and teacher of the school felt a far deeper love for the dear old Normal which so narrowly missed destruction. School spirit seems to come over a freshman just entered, like a sort of fever. Just before the first football game he hears the cheering of his fellow students and he is thrilled thru and thru. He at first thinks it is excitement but in reality it is the "fever," or the school spirit gripping his heart. . By the end of the freshman year the students ol' the A. S. N. S. are thoroughly saturated with the Alibon spirit and go home after commence- ment with a great lonesomness in their hearts, for a whole three months must elapse before they can again return. Long before September the students begin to count the days and even the hours before school opens. Then when the time comes, they meet, rejoicing under the corner of the A. S. N. S. and their spirit is swelled more and more so that their love for the school lasts throughout their lives. ...-... Eiscussing a :I-Illihnigbt Qhuatrel It was the unusually early hour of eight o'clock when Mrs. Green tapped at Mrs. Timmie's door and shut it tight after her as she entered. Her hair wasn't combed and her kimona was held to- gether with one hand. "Did you-eh-sleep well last nightiln she be- gan with a hesitation not usual to her. 'flland no," responded Mrs. Timmie looking at her visitor inquiringly. "There was so much noise going on that I was kept awake--" "You heard it then?', exclaimed Mrs. Green, seating herself on the bed. "Wz1sn't it perfectly dreadful! The woman screamed as if she was be- ing murdered!" "And land! how tl1e man swore." . "Who do you suppose it was?" Mrs. Green whispered. "I don't knowj' replied Mrs. Timmie. "It sounded as if it was right under my bed- room window," responded Mrs. Green. Mrs. Timmie sat up straight and took her el- bows off the table for Mrs. Green's apartment was directly above her's and Mrs. Green went on to explain "It musthave been tl1e new people who just moved in below you." "I thought it was upstairs, " Mrs. Timmie said. " There was another tap at the door and Mrs. Sands, who lived on tl1e same fioor entered. She looked from one to the other of her neighbors as she sat down, and ventured to say, "Did either Of you hear anything strange last night." "Well, I should say." "Well, I should say, was Mrs. Green's answer. "I was so seared that I wanted Mr. Sand to call the police and -" There was a knock and Mrs. Downer entered. The three women chorused: "Did you hear 1t?"' "Hear it!" Mrs. Downer dropped into a morris chair. "If that thing is going to happen' very often I shall move out. I will not permit my nieces to hear such language again, but we could not help hearing that-It was across from us. " Again there was a rap and in answer to Mrs. Timmie's "come in" Mrs. Brown ente1'ed. She glanced about the room--tl1e11 spoke " Would you believe that any man in. this house would get drunk and beat his wife? " " Who was it?" Two or three asked at once. "VVhy-I thought it was the new people on the firstfloor-" ' , "Not the doctor? She looks-" but before Mrs. Brown could finish there was another rap and the doctor herself stepped into the room. She looked around with sharp questioning eyes as sl1e said: "I was told this was a respectable place when I moved in and I Want to know-" 'WVe always thought it was a respectable place until last night," Mrs. Brown returned stiflly. ' "I am glad you are not in the habit of 'having Hlidnight quarrels, for that is very disturbing." t "It must have been your neighbors or the Por- ers." "It sounded to me as if it was up-stairs," de- clared Mrs. Downer. Just then Mrs. Porter entered and Mrs..Brown began: "Mrs Porter, did you hear a noise last night?" , "Why, no," Mrs. Porter returned laughing. "We had company for dinner and I was so tired I slept like a log all night. Why, what was it? " They all began to talk when a woman with big brown eyes appeared at the door. She .looked at her neighbors and began at once: "I just wanted to ask if you heard that dreadful quarrel last night? Who do you suppos it was I?" There was silence in the room. Every occupied apartment was represented there. Mrs. Timmie glanced around, "Do you s 'pose-it was--the jani- tor?" she asked. 1113132 Qlianhp Zlaeart Dick sat on the lower step of the porch and moodily dug his small heel into the soft dirt. Every once in so often he said beneath his breath "Darn," and semed to get a certain satisfaction from this exceedingly naughty word. He only dared to use it on certain occasions, and then when no one could hear him. However, he felt justified in using it now. ' It had all begun about two weeks ago when Gladys had started to school. Gladys was short and plump with soft yellow curls and a pair of big blue eyes. Ray Thomas and .lim .Brown were teasing her and Ray had just knocked her books down on the grass. Gladys' chin had begun to qui- ver piteously when something stirred within Dick's breast and he sprang with all the force of his small body on Ray. Then there ensued a battle which would long be remembered by the small boys who gathered around. In spite of the fact that Ray was much the heavier, Dick emerged triumphant altho his nose was bleeding and scratches were scattered promiscously over his small body. But this was nothing when Gladys looked up at him with the big tears in her eyes and asked with a trebble in her xoice: "Is you hurt?" Now Dick was no philosipher, but after this he thot that it was only fair that he should at least be counted in her good graces. And when at noon she had deliberately chosen Ray, yes, Ray, the very boy who had teased her, as her partner in "Hide and Seek," Dick felt very much injured, and that "darn" was a term not a bit too bad to indulge in. Having come to this conclusion he gave a savage kick and said it again: 'tDarn!" I Just then he saw Gladys coming down the street with a bucket in l1er hand. She was coming over to his house after milk. It wouldn't do for her to' see him so he went around tl1e wood shed and began to whistle unconcernedly. "Dick! O, Dick!" called his mother, "come here and carry this bucket for Gladys." Dick whistled gaily on and was finally brought forth muttering something about H girls always being in the way," but at last they were on the street. Dick strode along in front, and Gladys tod- dled after, her breath coming in short puffs. "Dicky, wait for 11l9,H she panted. Dick was inspecting a candy pig, which he had drawn from his pocket, and gave no heed to her entreaty. "Dick, I'se tired." At this Dick slowed up a little and Gladys caught up with him. They walk- ed along side by side in uncomfortable, pouting silence. Gladys finally said: "Is you mad?" "No, but I feel bad and I just believe I'll run out there in the street and let the cars run over me." He gave a covert glance to see how she would take this. It had the desired effect. Gladys' big eyes grew wide with fright and she nervously drew nearer. ' V "Dick, you wont r-e-a-l-l-y! Will you?" No response. "Say, Dick, I'm sorry I didn't choose you. I dont like 'that old Ray' anyway." Still no reply. Gladys drew herself up proudly, tossed her curls, and, if it were possible, her small tip-tilted nose tilted just a little higher. Having made the advances, it was his turn now. Dick saw the mis- take. "Say, Gladys." But Gladys did not answer. Thus they walked all tl1e way home. At the gate they paused. Dick held out the bucket to her. She took it and lin- gered uncertainly, twisting nervously on one foot and began hestitatingly: "' Ise---got-something-for-you-i '. She put something hard into Dick 's hand and retreated to the house in confusion. Dick opened his hand and-could it be true? Surely his eyes deceived himl. No, there on a pink heart were printed the words: "I love you." Dick ran home, rushed into the parlor and pro- voked his sister's wrath by nearly upsetting her in his joy, but Dick didn't mind. Out in tl1e yard he pulled the heart out of his pocket and read the words again: "I love you." End. GEN EVIEVE MARTIN WEN DE DAD DIED." We had just moved into a small western town and had not yet become acquainted with the vil- lage freaks. Just as we were leaving tl1e break- fast table one morning I heard a rap at the door and upon opening it I saw a strange old man standing before me. His face was dried and weather beaten and one could read suffering and heartache in every line of it. His knees were so weak and wabbly that he looked as tho he might topple over any minute. A short distance from the door stood a wheel-barrow, the wheel of which was almost as rickety as the old man's knees, and 111 it were two greasy slop cans. "You got any slop you 'd like to have took off?" he asked with a decided Scandanavian accent. I gladly shoved him the slop cans and from that time on he came regularly every morning, until We began to get interested in him and rather felt HS tho we ought to know more about him. I de- Olared from the first that he had a sad story to tell and determined sooner or later to learn it if possible. A year went by and more and more was im- Dressed upon me his patient endurance and his Sweet, quite strength. "Old Slop," as the irre- Verant people called him, never had much to say but occasionally when he did talk 11e always seem- ed cheerful in spite of the burden that evidently lily on his shoulders. I often yearned to draw him out and if possible to l1elp him and impart Strength to him, but there was something in the Qld man's bearing that forbade me to ask ques- t10ns or I would have had the whole story long before I did. At last tl1e opportunity came. One morning when he came he was fairly bursting with joy and his wheel-barrow seemed to syinpathise with him, for it lurehed along as though it were really 3 1Ve. "You seem unusually happy this morning. :live you received good news?" I ventured to S . . ."Yas'm." And he spoke almost hurriedly in h1S great excitement. "I got a letter frum ma leetle gurl las' night an' she 's comin' to me from de ole' country." . "Oh, then you have a daughter? How old 1S She-if I may ask?" for I was still rather timid. "She'll be tirteen een March an' I a1n't seen her since she were two year old." Lg, "Well, I don't blame you for being happy. Is your wife coming too?" In the few times during this year that I had got him to talk he had occasionally spoken of "a vife back een de ole country." "No'm, de vife she cant come until de dad die," and the sad tone mingled with bitterness excited my curiosity more than ever. Then he surprised me by saying, "I'm going to tell you about it." He leaned back against the house and began: "I come here frum de ole coun- try eleven years ago. I was starved out of ma home an' I had to come to America to make a livin.' I was goin' to have ma vife an' leetle Annie come to me as soon as I had earned enough money. I went hungry an' cold to make de money pile grow faster and finally I had enough to bring ,ein over, so I sent it. But pretty soon l' got a letter frum the vife saying she didn't vant to come until de dad die. S0 I vaited an' worked an' vaited an' I vas lonely all dese time. Finally she sent 'me anoder letter an' say she tought de dad was about to die an, she would come. So again I sent her all ma savings an' den de dad right quick got better an' den she wrote me a mean letter an' I knew she didn 't vant to come to me but vas trying to get all de money out of me she could an' oh, I vas so lonely. I still hoped dat when de dad vas dead maybe she vould come so I vorked on an' shiver an' starve some more for I tank maybe if I save hard enough I can buy a home ven she come. But de vork vas too hard an' I get seek and had to pay most all of ma mon- ey to de edoctor an' ven I vas vell again I vas not strong an' all I could do vas to get some peegs an' gather slop for ,em an' I bane so awful lonely but now ma leetle Annie's acomin.". And here he almost danced for joy. As he talked his eyes had assumed their old dimness and his face was again gray and care- worn. I began to talk about tl1e daughter he loved so dearly and he was soon cheered up and left almost as lighthearted as he had come. From that time on he was very different. Al- ways happy and quite talkative. About a month later he came one morning happier if possible than on that other morning. This time he told me that Annie was coming the next day. "An' den vont I be happy!" he exclaimed. The next morning "Old Slop" of as I had learn- ed Johan Bjorensan did not appear. But I thought nothing of it, supposing he was too much taken up with his daughter to remember his hungry pigs and the neglected slop cans of his neighbors. About two o'clock that afternoon a boy came and told me that I was wanted in the little dirt cover- ed shack down by th eriver. Anxiously I hurried off, fearing some accident had befallen my friend. When I entered a sweet faced girl came up to me timidily and with an appealing look that went straight to my heart she took my hand and led me over to the bed. There lay the old man, his little spark of life was almost gone. As I stepped to the bed side he raised himself very slightly and looked up at me very pathetically. "Vill you keep Annie-until de dad die?" I chockingly assured him that I would and he fell back--dead. "Old Slop" had died of happiness. E. F. B. Fourth Year Class.

Mabbutt Frank Johnson Cyrus Blodgett Paul Disney Frank Dotson Whence cometh those sounds so clear and shrill? Why, that's our Normal School band. One sunshiny day in September, '08, some four or five boys chanced to stop in at Mr. Stenquist's room to discuss our re- cent football victories. We had clearly demonsrated that we had a right to shout and "make glad the day." It was this fact that first led to the idea that we ought to have a brass band. "How many players in school?" asked Mr. Stenquist. Chorus: "None!" "How many instruments available?" "None" Thus was the first idea of a band met with rather discourag- ing obstacles. But a school full of life and active boys with an idea is not so easily to be thwarted. Once started, everyone talked band. A campaign was begun to secure instruments. Every likely avenue was considered. Finally through a series of combined efforts we were able to have the first practice with six instruments and as many un- trained players. From that number-our band has grown to nearly 25 pieces. Through persistent effort and faithful practice our boys have made for themselves a very creditable showing. They are each and every one real members of the "booster club " and are in the front now in promoting Albion. With new uniforms, and the prospects of an extended trip the future looks very bright for the band. U A knowledge of music, no matter how slight, has a recog- nized value. The band should have the hearty support of all for it does a great work in making our school life more enjoy- able and profitable. Mr. Stenquist had entire charge and through tireless eliiorts and patience has made it possible for the A. S. N. S. to boast of a band. i NORMAL ORCHESTRA Tllihe Q. 5. 33. 5.

There were then eight members. First Sopronos: Birdie McFall, Kate N01'llllIlglZ0l1, Second Sopranos: .Toe Parry, Pearly Story, First Altos: Kate Burgroff, Frances Grey, Second Altos: Myrtle Cornish, Olive Min- ear. These merry people sang at various entertain- ments. Among their productions Were: Welcome Pretty Primrose Flower By I Pinsute-Benbow. ln llld Madrid By Tratere G-racia. Fair l 7al'l'odills By Denza. After the holidays in 1909 the old Glee Club was reorganized, but only two of the old members were retained, Miss Story and Miss Cornish. As the club now stands it contains Pearly Story, June Beecher. Edna Barber, Vada lslelsley, First So- pranos, lllva Minear, Maude Fox, Leda Burstrom, Bessie Aekerly, Second Sopranos, Helena Van- derwel, Ellen Larsen, Mary Leonard, Myrtle Cornish, Altos. The Club has not been organized very long so we have not had, many trying ordeals imposed upon us as yet. Probably the greatest undertak- ing, ffor us or the camera: you may be judgel Was having ten exposures made in order to get a pic- ture Which did justice to the beauty of the mem- bers. The most amusing and interesting was see- ing the Misses Minear and Larsen doing the tight- rope act, balancing themselves on the top of a low step ladder, While the remainder of the group were going through the various contortion acts arranging themselves upon the rounds of tl1e lad- der, to get in a position which would be less harm- ful to the camera and do more credit to them- selves. We have not yet gained a firm footing in the World, but all We need is time. lVe are only four months old and we have already presented a number of selections, among which are: Swing Song By - Sohr. Oli, Won 't You Come and Dance VVith Me? By Goate. lVhite Butterfly 1 BY Denza. Last, but by all means not least, we sang that beautiful and heartrending "Johnnie Smockerf' On May 24 a Japaneese Opperetta, Princess Chrysanthemum, by C. King Procter was given un- der the auspices of the Glee Club, assisted by fif- teen model school children and twenty-five Nor- mal Students. The training of Prof. J. J. Jack- son. The Whole opperetta is of bright color and movement, and was one of the best things of the season. Listen and you can hear us sing the Lucerne VVarble. R xx 1' : : I if K if MW Q ,aff Z 7.

Last fall the girls of the A. S. N. S. with the assistance of the lady members of the faculty succeeded in organizing a Y. W. C. A. We met October the eleventh and organized electing Miss Hinchliff as president, Miss Winkler as vice-president, Miss T. Pratt, treasurer and Miss E. Larsen, secretary. We sent Miss Barber to the Northwest district convention. The inspiration she received while there has been of the greatest value to the association. November the tenth we were favored by a visit from Miss Hopkins, secretary of the Northwest district. One of the great- est benefits in getting better organized was the help received from her as was also the excellent talk she gave us in Y. W. C. A. during her stay with us. One of the most beneficial departments of the association is the Bible study. We have three classes, supervised by Miss Van Boskirk, Miss Smith and Mrs. Knipe. The classes meet each Thursday and discuss the daily readings. This year we have been studying the character of Jesus. Owing to the fact that the association is not well organized, the social events have been very few. In the fall. we gave a taffy-pull in the dining room of the Girls' Dormitory to thc whole school. This spring we gave a County Fair, to help defray the expense of Miss Barber. It was a decided success. both socially and financially, as we cleared over forty dollars. In February we elected new officers: Miss G. Pratt, presi- dent, Miss M inear, vice-presidentg Miss Hinchlff, treasurer and Miss Barber, secretary. The benefit we girls have received from the Association can not be estimated. It is training and strengthening us both morally and mentally for the long years when our lives may be beyond its influence. INA SORIVNER, '12 f Y. NI. C. A. CABINET Frank Dotson Prof. A. Lewis Chas.

Knipe Educational institutions are realizing more and more that no man has a liberal education who has studied only the usual school branches, and that no man is well developed who has developed only the spiritual and mental sides of his nature and has omitted the spiritual side. ' For this reason a band of earnest fellows got together last November and organized a Young Men 's Christian Association. The object of this work is to create a religious atmosphere in the school, to bring the young men of the institution together in a study of the greatest of books, the Bible, and to better fit them for their work in life. In the organization of a Y. M. C. A. a heartfelt need of the school has been realized. Although the work is quite young there is every reason to be encouraged. Another year will find the Y. M. C. A. in good working order and the old members will be seen getting behind the work and pushing it on with renewed energy and deter- mination.

There were huntreses, queens, cowgirls, coons, the nightly police force and all other kinds of peo- ple from the earth. In the beginning theyydid wander to one vacant room where lo! they did behold an animal and all stood about marvelling at the immensity of .the ground hog. Straightway, Joe of the House of Gibbs, did lead the crowd to the top of the Golden Stair but, lo and behold! before St. Peter could open the pearly gate they did shoot the shoots to the lower regions. Yea,' they did shoot the shoots more than need be. At the entrance of the lower region, they re- ceived a pass, with which they were allowed to gaze at the Wingless bats. From here they journ-1 eyed thru the colonnades to behold Mars, and it came to pass that their faces were smitten with drops of water. Thence they did advance to the abode of mighty Dotson, where in was found the sun dog. And it came to pass that there was a great feast pre- pared for the weary and they were filled thereof. After refreshing their tired bodies, they were once again lcd up the long steps by lrving of the House of Hillman to see the poll cat and the links playing with the English hares. Then Pike of the House of Sears and Irving of the House of Hillman did perform great things before the multitude and there was great rejoic- ing.

Later the school took up track exercises and b.aseball. Track meets were held between the so-cieties, and between the classes. Baseball was played with the town team. After a time track exercises were abandoned al- together then foot-ball was taken up and Pro- fessor R. C. Thompson secured as coach. Pro- fessor Thompson proved to be one of the best coaches in the state. In two years from an inex- perienced mob of boys who had never played a game of foot-ball, he made a championship team. The first foot-ball team was formed in nineteen- five. Not a player on the team had ever played before so it was not surprising that this team went down to defeat. The first game was played with the Academy of Idaho and resulted in a score of fifty-four to nothing in favor of the Academy. The second game resulted in a score of thirty-four to nothing in favor of the Academy. In the fall of nineteen six the tables were turn- ed. The Erst game was played on the Albion grounds, neither team scored. Then the Albion team went to Pocatello and defeated them six to nothing. The base-ball team of that year played its first games with other schols. Albion lost one game to Pocatello Academy and won one. The Academy basket-ball girls defeated the Al- bion girls once and were themselves defeated once. The football season of nineteen seven opened with a game between Albion and the Pocatello High School. Neither team scored. Then Albion easily defeated the Idaho Falls team. After this game, the Pocatello Academy was brought to Albion for a practice game. The game resulted in a score of six to two in favor of the Academy. Albion went to Pocatello a few weeks later to play for the championship of the southeastern di- vision of the state and was defeated by a score of eleven to nothing. -In base ball that year Albion won every game on he schedule excepting the one with the Academy. After a hard-fought game of ten innings the Acad- emy won by a score of eleven to seven. The basket-ball girls lost one game and won one from both the Academy and the Twin Falls High School. Tl1e foot-ball team of nineteen-eight began the season by defeating tl1e Twin Falls High School. The score stood fifteen to nothing in favor of Al- ion. The next game, played with the Blackfoot High School was another victory for Albion. ,The op- posing team did not score. Albion scored, eleven points. I I Albionis next game was with her old rival, the Pocatello Academy. In this game Albion made her highest score of tl1e season, defeating the visi- tors twenty-one to nothing. Up to this time no team had crossed the Albion goal line. This left Albion champion of the southeastern division of tl1e state. ' After a hard trip to Caldwell Albion was de- feated by the College of Idaho, Thanksgiving day, eleven to nothing. The girls' basket ball team made a splendid record this season, defeating the Twin Falls High School once and the Pocatello Academy once, but losing the championship to the Academy in the last game. ! ! !CHEER !

S. have hitherto been almost unnoticed, but last year witnessed a victory for the basket ball team, which somewhat renewed the interest of the school. Early in September, '08, two girls' basket ball teams were organized, a new coach chosen, and work began in earnest, and continued so through- out the season. The first game was played with Twin Falls High School at Albion, on a very disagreeable day. It ended in a score of 14-5 in favor of the Twin Falls team. But this did not discourage the girls, on the contrary it seemed to make them work all the harder, preparing for what was expected to be one of the hardest fought games of the season. On November 6th the Pocatello girls arrived and the next morning a scared, but determined set of girls, marched out to the ball grounds. When the whistle blew the crowd expected to see the ball knocked easily down to Pocatello 's goal and go into the basket with no opposition at all, but the Albion girls stepped in just at that moment. The spectators awoke to the fact that the home team was there ,and that their team-work was fine.. The game ended in a victory for Albion, the score be- ing 14 to 10. The next game was played at Twin Falls with the High School. Their grounds were muchtoo large, and the baskets not in good condition, but by team-work and quick playing the game was won by Albion with a score of 15 to 13. The trip was thoroughly enjoyed by all, thanks to Mr. Hun- ter. There was now one game left to play with Po- catello on their own grounds. On the 12th of Dec. We went to Pocatello to play the game for the championship of Southern Idaho. The weather being very cold we were compelled to play in the gymnasium, where a gallery around the entire top of the court was a great obstacle to the Albion girls, for the Pocatello guards would force the forwards under this platform and they could do their usual goal throwing. It was a hard fought game, but the team work of Albion was acknowledged by all as being far superior to the other team. . The game ended 10 to 9 in Pocatello's favor. Thus Albion lost the championship. I-Iad the game been played on nuetral grounds, the score would probably have been the reverse. The team practiced until nearly time for the spring season, where it 'was learned all the op- posing teams had withdrawn and nothing was left to Albion, but to withdraw also. Tune-' ' Luby-loo.
