The attempt has been made to adhere, strictly, to all laws of harmonious arrangement of subject matter and illustration, so that the appeal may be made to the eye, as well as to the mind. It has been the purpose of the editors to assem- ble a book, which is a symbol of the love and respect felt for our Alma Mater. When the years spent in Bridgewater Normal School are only a memory, may you re-live your schooldays in the pages of this, the Normal Offer- ing of 1927. as vw' i : ' X J., X , 1. 1 xx. 5 ,lf I To Our New School Building We dedicate the Normal Offering of 1927, with the sincere desire that it will serve for many years as the example and inspiration of high ideals. Coiled up in this institution, as in a spring, there is a vigor Whose uncoiling may wheel the spheres. Horace Mann ALMA MATER Dedicated to Dr. Albert G. Boyden Principal, 1860-1906 Oh loved Alma Mater we greet thee, Thy daughters and sons from afar, As often we pause in our toiling To hail thee, whose children we are. REFRAIN Hail to Normal!

I'Present first two terms. ...x 3 L... 1 I' THE SCHOOL 'Dedication of the State Normal School at Bridgewater On October 23, 1926, there gathered in the Horace Mann Auditorium, an impressive assembly of many of the foremost educators in New England. A great number of them were Bridgewater Normal Alumni, who, rejoicing in the erection of the beautiful new buildings of their Alma Mater, came to attend the dedicatory exercises. Dr. Payson Smith, State Commissioner of Education, was the presiding officer. After an invocation by the Reverend Egbert C. Prime, of Bridgewater, musical numbers were rendered by a trio, composed of violin, cello, and piano. The first address was given by His Excellency, Alvan T. Fuller, Governor of the State of Massachusetts, who spoke in part, as follows: We honor Bridgewater for vastly more than the length of her service and the number of her graduates. We hold Bridgewater in the highest esteem for the sterling principles which she has championed from the beginning, and I refer particularly to the principle that any education worthy of the name must minister to spirit as well as to intellect. In the second report of the Board of Education signed by Edward Everett, I find the following significant statement: 'The principles of Christian ethics and piety common to the different sects of Christians will be carefully inculcated, and a portion of Scripture will be daily read in all the normal schools established by the Board'. Education and character training were to go hand in hand in order to achieve the noblest results. . From the time of her foundation to the present day Bridgewater has been favored with the highest type of leadership, and one that has given continuity to these early conceptions of education. The first principal, Colonel Nicholas Tillinghast, was characterized as a man of strong religious feeling, pure character, and unfiinching devotion to principle, and I find Mr. Albert G. Boyden, the honored leader of this institution during more than half of her entire history, expressing his educational philosophy in the following language: 'The nor- mal school stands for certain definite ideals-first, for the inspiration of its students with the spirit of the true teacher who has the spirit of service and comes to his pupils as the Great Teacher comes to men, 'that they may have life and have it more abundantly'. Next, the schoolGlee Club, under the direction of Miss Frieda Rand, sang two selections. In the absence of Dr. William G. Vinal, president of the Bridgewater Normal School Alumni Association, Mrs. Cora M. Barry, vice-president of the association, extended a few words of greeting. Greetings from the town of Bridgewater were given by Clifton C. Putney, Superinten- dent of Schools. Mr. Frank W. Wright, Director of the Division of Elementary and Secondary Education and Normal Schools, then addressed the audience. In part, he said: We see in these splendid buildings renewed evidence that Massachusetts places the preparation of her teachers among her primary duties. She is here rededicating herself to the task of carrying forward, through the decades of the future, the important work begun by our far-visioned leaders of more than four-score years ago. On the simple stone that marks the grave of Horace Mann in the Old North Burying Ground in Providence is this meaningful inscription, 'Whatever is excellent, as God lives, T. ...g 9 T... I927 NORMAL OFFERING- is permanent.' The work of the skilled teacher is excellent. Look about you during every hour of every day if you would see the permanent values of good teaching. A line from Chaucer adorns one of the ancient buildings at Oxford. It reads, 'Gladly does he learn and gladly teach.' No more fitting inscription could grace the portal of this school, and no more compelling ideal guide its work. Generously has the Commonwealth here provided an institution worthy of its task. Gladly, let us hope and believe, will thou- sa-nds leave this campus to return to the State an hundred fold the benefits here received. I-IORACE MANN AUDITORI UM Following more music, came the dedicatory address by Principal Arthur C. Boyden, of the State Normal School at Bridgewater. We regret that because of the unavoidable lack of space we cannot print the whole of this most interesting and enlightening address. First Mr. Boyden paid tribute to Mr. Samuel P. Gates, a graduate of the school, through whose generosity the present advantageous site of the building was made possible. Then in words of sincere admiration, Mr. Boyden spoke of Horace Mann, the great educator, after which he spoke as follows: There are four objectives in the Normal school ideal: CID A professional centre. The new conception gaining force in education emphasizes the fact that the 'child is the centre of gravity in education', and not the subject matter of instruction. This means that the amplest facilities for the observation of children, for demonstration purposes, and for training in teaching, both intensive and extensive, are the vitals of a Normal school. This means that both the cultural and the technical instruction ...Q 10 5... THE SCHOOL must focus on the specific professional purpose of the school, just as a lens held in right relation to the sun's rays and to sensitive tinder, will cause a burning Flame. Students in the Normal school must live the life that will best prepare them to direct the experiences of those whom they teach, and teaching thus becomes a fine art. The old Prophet in his description of the ideal condition of life closed with those beautiful words-'and a little child shall lead them.' C2j A professional faculty. The expression often heard to-day is-'to teach is to interpret'. The older phases of the teacher's work are not neglected, but it is being more clearly recognized that the principal function of the teacher is twofold-to interpret to her- self the young life in all of its many, and often strange, manifestations, and to interpret life in all its complexity to the new generation. Only a teacher who is perpetually young can do this. This power to interpret life in its rich meaning is a gift and an achievement-the real teacher is born and 'born again'. There is a still fundamental truth in Garfield's well- known description of a college-'a youth at one end of a log and Mark Hopkins at the other end.' There is also a wonderful inspiration in the words of the great scientist who wished placed on his monument these simple words-'Louis Agassiz. Teacher.' The great Teacher defined teaching for us,-AI came that ye might have life and have it more abundantly'. C31 A professional equipment. There is such a thing as an equipment appropriate and adequate to its purpose, and the equipment of a normal school should resemble that of other great professional schools, because it has a specific purpose. It also must be a com- prehensive equipment-an equipment for an all-round physical development, an equipment with which to interpret the world of our new environment, a social equipment, to meet rationally and happily the great social hunger of young minds, a library equipment, that includes the treasures of the cultural and professional literature of the agesg an artistic equip- ment, that appeals to the imagination through the eye and ear, and, if you allow the term, an ethical equipment, that provides opportunity for such exercises as tend to the uplifting of the spiritual nature, remembering, as Dean Franklin told the Conference at Framingham- 'The ethical is the gateway to the moral and religious'. CLD A professional spirit. 'It is not the letter but the spirit that quickenethh The most influential factor in the establishment of the Massachusetts normal schools was the high devotion of a small band of men and women who laid the foundations so securely. The names of such great promoters of teacher training as James G. Carter, Edmund Dwight, and Horace Mann will ever be in our minds. The first principals of the normal school,- Father Peirce, Samuel Newman, and Nicholas Tillinghast,-were men of scholarship, men of vision, men of high purpose, men who could teach and inspire. The traditions of this particular school cluster around the names of men and women who gave their minds, their hearts, and their lives to this school. This is our priceless heritage. For long years there has been on the walls of our buildings, as well as in the hearts of the faculty, students, and graduates, this motto, which still remains as an inspiration for the years to come,-'Not to be ministered unto, but to minister'.

After careful consideration,- and at the risk of criticism,-we have decided that no other words can so aptly express our thought as this quotation. It symbolizes to us the triumphing of spirit over matter. The material things of this world may be destroyed, but the spirit cannot. A short while ago our school building crumbled into ashes. Nothing that was earthly remained. But the soul of the school,-the knowledge of the necessity of well-trained teachers,-lived on in the hearts of the Massachusetts educators. A few months found erected in the place of the destroyed building a structure more power- ful, more adequate, and more beautiful than ever. Destroy this temple and in three days I will build it up again. Each year the members of our school have instilled in them the spirit of well-trained teachers. His excellency Alvan T. Fuller, Governor of Massachusetts, says, Schools can-I not rise above the teachers in them. If this be so, and we feel that it is, how vitally essen- tial it is for us to carry the high ideal of Bridgewater Normal School, through which it sur- vived a calamity, into the schools in which we teach. Centuries ago, the Greek philosopher, Diogenes, uttered a modern view when he said, The foundation of every state is the education of its youth. He did not say that a nation needed great industries, powerful trade routes, or conquering armies in order to survive. He knew that there is something more fundamental which forms the basis of a state. Educa- tion is the bed-rock on which the rest is constructed. All mundane effects may be destroyed, but if the spirit lives on, reconstruction will follow. If, as Napoleon says, Public instruction should be the first object of government , then the second should be that the public instruction should be the best possible. The State Normal School at Bridgewater has ever aimed to graduate only students who have at- tained a high degree of pedagogical ability. Because this skill was possessed by our in- structors, they were able to carry on through disaster and into the new life of the school. A spirit was there which could not be destroyed. The temple is but a fragile place, at best. It is the will to fight and conquer that counts. Destroy this temple and in three days I will build it up again.

GOLDIE COLBURN Secretary . . DORIS KELLEHER Treasurer . . . . MARJORIE NICHOLS History Lookouts in the towers of Bridgewater sighted a strange craft making port one day in September, 1923. This ship was in sad need of repairs, and showed strong evidences of hav- ing borne the brunt of many storms. The crew was composed of ambitious and progressive youths who were seeking Higher Learning. They had managed to keep their craft afloat on the dangerous seas, but fearing the storms to come they realized the need of the peaceful shelter and fortitude that the harbor promised. Life in their new surroundings was a pleasant one for the crew. They were known as the D's and a genial and original lot they were. They first gave evidence of their originality when they opened their marvelous Three Ring Circus . A step higher toward their goal, the second year found the land sailors at Bridgewater Normal working enthusiastically under the name of C's. It was during this year that a terrible calamity befell them-their beloved new home was almost completely destroyed by fire. As a result of the fire the crew was sent to nearby lands to train, a year earlier than they would otherwise have been sent. The title of Cs merged into that of B's upon the beginning of the crew's third year of study. Many of the B's seeing the goal in sight, became eager to launch their boats once again, but they were told that by remaining on land another year they would be better equipped to face the storms that they would be sure to meet upon leaving the sheltered harbor. Furthermore, they were told that another year's application to their work would gain for them a badge of merit, a symbol of perseverance, called a degree. As A's, the crew was well represented in all the activities of the school. Members were particularly distinguished in the chapel exercises of the various departments. The A Social was a well attended affair. Now the year is fast drawing to a close, and the time is very near when the crew will again sail, not in the great ship in which they came, but in individual ships, each one to fight out his own destiny. With eyes straining out to sea to catch a glimpse of the not distant shores of Success, they will guide their crafts with a firm purpose out of port and on to the great sea of Life.

Take four feet eleven of pep, add plenty of originality, then a dash of humor, and the result will be our Helena. Wlhen affairs in class have almost come to a standstill, and our teacher is waiting for an answer or suggestion, Helena always comes to the rescue.

Of all the representatives which Nantucket has sent to Bridge- water Normal there is none to whom she points with more pride than Marcella. Achieving early fame in the musical pursuits of the school, she unselhshly gave her time and attention to further the interests of the musical clubs. Fur- thermore, we can testify that she has been a consistent stu- dent, a genuine optimist, and a real sport.

She has been a faithful and loyal classmate, proving a worthy representative of the island . As a champion hiker, or early riser, she certainly is unequalled in this school. She has done her part for four years in keeping the post-office department of Bridgewater busy. The best of luck, Anna, in your teaching career. -4 24 5...

Dick often has strong convictions on the affairs of the day, and no amount of threats, diplomacy, nor imploring can make him alter his opinion.

ALFREDA RITCHIE History Foreseeing that in the near future there will be underway an investigation to explain the remarkable improvement in the world, due to the entrance, on the field of activities, of a certain B class of the Bridgewater Normal School, I will here record certain facts and tendencies of said class, which may aid the investigators in their explanation. The individuality and genius which later marked this class was not apparent when on a sunny day in September, in the year 1924, they arrived at the metropolis of Education. It was not long, however, before they became accustomed to the ways of the place and could use its terminology with the hoariest of seniors. By the end of their first year they were acknowledged as a power to be considered. In their second year, feeling that in union there is strength, they organized the class and elected the officers which are still retained. 'With their members, the foremost actresses, athletes, musicians, and scholars of the school, they returned for a third year, to enjoy the glory of their successes. VVhatever they are to do, one thing is certain, that the class whose accomplishments have been so great will continue in a broader held with as great achievements. In the meanwhile, this record will remain as a proof of the irresistible will and unconquerable spirit of Class B, GENEUEVE WESTERYELT ...5 29 5... I927 NORMAL OFFERING Class B THE SPIRIT OF BRIDGEWATER y The Bridgewater Spirit is, in my opinion, the feeling of the Normal students that their teaching is not a mere job by which they are to earn their living, but that their teaching is something worthwhile-something that will build the character of future citizens of the United States. When we first came here, we may have had the impression that teaching was a very easy profession-perhaps we had chosen it for that very reason. Since then we have formed a new impression. Our observation in the Training School has had something to do with the change. I think it is because the Bridgewater graduates love their work that such a spirit exists. Their love increases as the years go on. Such is the Bridgewater Spirit. I . A ELEANOR TESTONI ...Q 30 5... CLASSES EDITH GRACE AUGER 23 Lyon Avenue, Brockton, Mass.

She is one of our day hoppers from Brockton and broke the nine to four rule only because of Training School. We always felt sorry for the first one in the class, alphabetically, but our sympathy was uncalled for in this case. Why? Because Edie is one of the most studious and clever girls in the class. References insure work everywhere, especially in drawing. Popular! Ask anyone in Bl. Suc- cess, Edith, wherever you go. MARION EARLE CARPENTER ELEANOR FRANCES CALLAHAN 66 Center Street, North Easton, Mass. Callie is the most quiet girl imaginable. Nevertheless, we are able to judge from her unassuming manner, the depth and sincerity of her nature, As to her scholastic ability, her marks are the an- swer.

Everyone plays it. We begin when very young to wish for every toy we see. As we grow a little older we long for the things we read of in fairy tales: castles, adventures, the life of a king or queen, or fairies for playmates. Then comes the age when every boy wishes for long trousers, and perhaps for a smile from the shy little miss next door, and every girl wishes for as many clothes as Susie Jones has, or to be as beautiful as Mary Smith. A few years later, the boy wishes for a car of his own. CWhat if it does look like a grass- hopper, and need a little urging occasionally?j The girl, a young lady, now begins to wish for a higher education, or perhaps just for a good time. So through life this game of wishing goes on. Even the aged have their wishes, which I think are the best of all-to be young again, and to return to the places where they had such good times. Wishing is a good thing for most people. It serves as an incentive for them to obtain the much-desired thing. Would machinery ever have been invented if someone had not wished for an easier way of doing his work? The saying is that if you wish for a thing long enough you will get it: but I think a little energy, too, would help your desire come true. Wishing has been the subject of many poems and sketches in literature. Whittier has written a poem on the most beautiful wish in the world. The theme of it is: To-day, beneath Thy chastening eye, AI crave alone for peace and rest, Submissive in Thy hands to lie, And feel that it is best. ...r 36 9...

The error is usually discovered after the burst of laughter following upon this answer-hence the Grace Mary. Grace is the sort of girl who is so very quiet that she is not discovered until much time, which could have been spent in close friendship, is lost. However, we value our fortunate acquaintance with her very highly. You are a splendid example to give to the teaching profession, Grace, and we wish you a great deal of luck.

At the end of her first year, upon moving to Somerville, Alice transferred to Salem Normal, but soon returned to dear old Bridgewater Normal, even though it necessitated commuting. She is one of B2's most conscientious members, for she has never been known to leave a task until it is completed. Besides attending to her regular studies, she spends every spare min- ute of her time working in the library. Keep to the same policy that you are following now, Alice, and you are bound to come out on top. Best of luck! GENEVIEVE MACCARLIE WESTERVELT 111 Corning Street, Beverly, Mass.

At last! After all my waiting and longing I am at Normal School. I met a lot of new girls. The seniors don't look so very teacherish, but I could easily pick out the new girls- they all appear a trifle scared. I know a lot of them, so I shan't be lonesome. I donft feel a bit homesick. I wonder what they are doing at home? It must be strange to be at home and not have me there. Oh well, I'll soon get this room to look like home. It certainly did look bare when we first came in, but the view from the window is beautiful. I am glad my roommates are both from my graduating class. Guess I'll go to bed, because school begins tomorrow. Sept. 21. Oh how I wish I were home again! I don't care a rap about teaching. The studies are all right, but the home lessons I never get done. Some of the girls are nice but the upper- classmen seem to think it's their duty to step as hard as they can on the Freshmen. And that lecture we got tonight. I think it's mean to be always down on us. And that firedrill last night almost scared the wits out of me. Why can't they have it at a decent time, not when I've just got into bed? I don't care if the old building does burn down. I wish it would, then I could go home. Nov. 1. VVe had a great time today. Our team beat the Junior III's, so now we're champs. I got two A's today, besides. I was introduced to the nicest girl today. She lives over in Normal and invited me to visit her. I know a lot of upper-classmen now. They're not half as strict as they were at first. Our house president is a peach. She's a good hockey player too. Some of the girls were talking about going home this weekend, but gosh, I'd just as soon stay here. K. WINFREE K.

ALICE HAYES History On a bright September morning not so long ago, eighty-two future pedagogues gathered in the basement of Woodward Dormitory to begin their Normal School careers, and there, were divided into classes designated as Junior I, II, and III, respectively. We found, as Juniors, that together with hours of studying came hours of pleasure. Among the most pleasant memories that we have are those of the day that we spent visiting the granite quarries in Quincy, the one on which we went to the museums in Boston, our sleigh-ride to Brockton one wintry evening, and the sing at which Junior II won. In our work too, we found pleasure, as illustrated by the enthusiasm shown in working out the Pilgrim and Indian projects in Miss Moff1tt's class, our interest in Training School, and all other scholastic activities. We have been very athletic, as well, for many of our members have proved stars in Hockey, Basketball and Baseball. To the rest of the school we extend every wish for happiness and prosperity. The time will soon arrive When the Senior Class must part And each and every one of us Our new careers must start.

GRACE KATH RYN REED GENEVA MAGDELENE REED 97 Elliot Street, Brockton, Mass. Day Students Council, '26-'27. Geneva's sunny disposition and charming manner have made her one of the most popular members of Senior 3. She has a wonderful sense of humor, the kind that the rest of us wish we could cultivate at times. She is not only adept in a scholastic way, but she is also a dancer of ability. If we were to take a popular vote on who the best sport in Senior 3 was, we would wager that Geneva's name would be very near the top. The best of luck, Geneva, all through life. 48 Park Street, Fall River, Mass. Grace began her life at Normal as a commuter, but after living at the dormitory during her six weeks in Model School, she decided to remain for the rest of the time. Grace was very conscientious and could always be depended upon to do more than was required of her. It was she who showed so much originality in her papers in History of Eduaction, and this ability seemed to be adapted to all of her studies. Best wishes for a successful career. ...g 77 5...

Remarkable feats are not uncommon from Helen, either in sports or studies. Accept our sincere wishes, Helen, for your success. GRACE JOANNA MONICA RIORDAN 323 Belmont Street, Brockton, Mass. W. A.

Nothing ever goes wrong with Al, because her motto is Never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. One can always find her by looking for Sylvia Pratt. They are inseparable. Although Al can giggle, she can also be quite serious, as shown by her professional manner in Training School. NVe know that Alice is going to be one of the best of teachers. CELIA SANDER 44 Somerset Avenue, Taunton, Mass. Cilla was absent from our class for a long time, so you can imagine how we welcomed her when she came back again. Our class is always glad to have someone who is cheery and good-natured, like Cilla, for a member. She is one of the cleverest girls in our class, being one of those rare creatures called an all-round scholar .

FRANCES COTTER TERRY, 10 Darling Street, Nantucket, Mass. Frances evidently thought very highly of our school, because she came from far over the sea to be with us. If you do not believe it, ask her what a distance it seems when she is going home for a vacation. She accomplishes a great deal in a quiet and un- assuming manner.

Here I go into the bag, my mistress always throws me in disgustedly. What a reward for faithful service! Well, I have nothing to do until the history lecture Hrst period,-then I'll be overworked. I never saw such a life. Nothing but work and no play! I'll be Worn out with writing, and drink- ing bad ink. I Test next period, I must be good. I ought to know the questions: I've written enough about them in class. But my mistress will push me into writing something wrong. For heaven's sake! What is she grasping me so hard for? Ah! I know. The teacher has for- gotten to give the assignment, and it's time for the bell. I suppose everyone is afraid she'll remember it. What's that I hear? Someone wants to borrow me for next period? I hate to go with that girl, for she always forgets to bring me home. And, do you know, she sticks me in her mouth. Such a disgusting habit. Some day I'm going to scratch her. Lunch time. Here's my mistress powdering her nose in front of the mirror before she even thinks of lunch. I wish she'd hurry up, this is the noon I hear all the week-end gossip. Oh, she went out with john Friday and Saturday nights. I wish he'd change his name. I'm sick of hearing it and writing to it. Well, we're going to Lit now, to pass in that paper I wrote last night. I like this class. It's interesting, and I don't usually have to work. Oh, dear! This chair arm isn't a bit comfortable. Maybe if I fall off, my mistress will put me in her lap, and I can snuggle down for a good nap. Why, where's everybody gone? I guess I've been forgotten again. Well, here comes my mistress looking for me. She looks sad, too. I guess she really loves me, after all. HELEN M. BARRY ...g 85 5... 1927 NoRMAL OFFERING l President . OLIVE MOULTON Vice-President . . OLIVE FULLER Secretary-Treasurer RUTH HAMBLIN KP I-History just a few short years ago thirteen trembling KP's found their way to chapel and bash! fully began their acquaintance as a class. Our number was further increased by three girls whom we were glad to welcome. One of the first things we did was to hold a class meeting, and we made such a good choice of class representative, that we have never felt the need of a change. Being such a small class we have constantly suffered the indignity, to state it conserva- tively, of being over-looked. We have steadfastly refused to accept this attitude and con- sequently not a week goes by that you do not see a group of KP's striving for recognition somewhere. It may be in their studies, for their program is at best an uncertain affair and constantly in need of some change, Our class has not neglected the athletic side of school life, although perhaps it is best to draw a sheltering veil over the results of our endeavors in that line. The KP's cannot complain that their three years have lacked variety, but finally, this spring, we find ourselves united once more, giving us one more pleasant memory to take into our new life. RUTH HAMBLIN THE SPIRIT OF BRIDGEWATER I think that Bridgewater has an up-and-coming spirit. With few exceptions, the girls go into things with lots of enthusiasm. In athletics, for instance, crowds of girls play hockey or go on organized hikes, just because they love the competition and the joy of doing some- thing. Above all, the girls here are good sports, whether they win or lose. FLORENCE NYE ...4 86 5... CLASSES KP I-Class HARRIET ELVIRA BLISS 434 Broadway, North Attleboro, Mass.

She is one of the most popular, too, as shown by the fact that she was our class president. Harry reminds one of a doll, with her big, blue eyesg long, black lashes, and her straight, dark hair. Re- gardless of obstacles, she can always manage to have a good time, both in school and outside. She does not neglect her studies either, for she has kept her average high.

GOD SPEAKS QA CHANTJ It cowers, dust-ridden, repulsive! What can there be of beauty in this shaggy thing called man? I had born within me at the first glow of the new star that primal beauty, sorrow, Be- cause I was not aware of its birth, I felt no pain. I had sought joy in beauty-I found sorrow. In the dim years I had believed Life might be lived well, nor has my trust been lessened in the darkness of the new evil that wipes out the old good-yet has no new good for its place. In my darkness I did not idly wait for light to come. I sought to find a pathway through it. I still seek. In my belief I have given all. The partial power that earth would give I spurned. There must be more to gain. Each year I see new men come forth and to each one I whisper, What matter, O my brother, if you die? Your son must live. But neither hear and both condemn me. Because, once, in an absent mood. I was aware of a sweet strain I never heard again yet always listen for-my ears have long been deafened to the streets, to the laughter in the halls, the petulance of the urchin, the harshness of the more unfortunate, or less-fwhich would you?j. My nights have been made days, to join day and day, for mankind. Always before me has been Something-Something-to which I lifted my eyes, if, per- chance, in the march they lost the way.

We have made ourselves known in various activities. We wanted hockey, but alas, our number were too few. Consequently, those who wished to, joined a Junior team, and dis- tinguished themselves,-as KP's always do. One morning we were all sorry to lose a few minutes of psychology while an election was held, after which we had a class representative-Mary Gorman. .

In September, C1 did not return to Normal, but started trying its powers, personality, and what not on the lucky pupils of various schools, and enjoyed the work thoroughly. Meanwhile the rest of the class was busy. It plunged into geography, composition, and literature. It made maps of all countries and spent hours on reference work and lec- tures. But even this deluge of work could not stop them. Class C developed a hockey team that almost Won the championship. Y, Class Cl returned at the beginning of the second term. Again the daily grind began, sprinkled with enough free periods to make life interesting and prevent anyone's envying C2 out training. The sport of the season,-basketball, called many. The Head of Basket- ball was a C, and furthermore, the championship of Baseball was won by the C team. It was not surprising that the C's were the principal participants at the Basketball Spread. As for the last semester of the school year,-we were left without C3. In spite of this, C1 and C2 managed to live up to the high scholastic standing of the class, rounding out a year of happiness and success. I ...Q 94 5... CLASSES ALGER, DOROTHY L. . .

Some of us had heard the call, and thinking that our road was in the teaching profession we went away. Many of us were rather bewildered at the vast extent of our future home. There were vast unknown areas of books crammed full of knowledge to be applied to our benumbed brains. The first week brought nothing but longing for home and a faint pang of regret at leaving high school. The second week left us with an idea of what the following days were to bring! biology, physiography, drawing,-study, more study, and still more. Clubs and social activities as well as class work eased our pangs of home-sickness. There were the Scouts, W. A. A., TC, Dramatic Club, and Glee Clubs to join. After three terms of Normal School life we have come to the conclusion that Bridge- water is a great place. We are anxiously awaiting the time when the C's will move to new territory so that We may assume their dignity.

Hardwick, Furnace 1927 NORMAL OFFERING UNIORSM History We shall never forget our first day at Bridgewater Normal School! How to distinguish one building from another was the first problem that confronted us, and it was a difficult one you may be sure. Then we had the horrible task of trying to puzzle out our programs, and after a few unsuccessful attempts succeeded. After a few weeks, however, all of our problems gradually worked themselves out, and we settled ourselves for a year of work. The three Junior classes have participated in all of the sports of the school. In hockey junior 3 defeated the two other junior classes, but in turn was defeated by the D class in the final game. junior 2 was successful in basketball, winning all but two games. The joy of playing the game has in all cases compensated for any defeats with which we met. Our debut in chapel will never be forgotten, by either the terrified participants or the amused audience. The subject of the performance was the teaching of a rote song, and all who saw it professed a liking for the work of the actresses. However, our histrionic ability is a well-known fact about the school because of our dramatization, in the reading classes, of Hiawatha. Every day for quite some time we could be seen about the school building and campus burdened with Indian blankets and other paraphernalia of a similar nature. As an absolute fact, we became weary from answering the eternal question asked by the upper classmen, Are you dramatizing Hiawatha? We have been very happy as Juniors but we are looking forward to a year of joyous fulfilment of ideals as Seniors. Class Roll - Junior l ALLEN, ETTA H. . . BARNARD, MARY A. BENT, FLORENCE M. .

WINIFRED BOOTH Life at Woodward begins, for the newcomers at least, in a sight-seeing tour. After walking the empty corridors and peering into room after room originally decorated with one CD bureau, one Qlj bookcase, one QD shindig , one CID table, two CZD or three C31 beds and the same number of chairs, the entering people choose those which they most admire and settle down as best they can in the restricted area of dormitory life. Days and weeks pass. And out of a group of girls whose interests are widely divergent, there gradually emerges a homogeneous aggregation whose common purpose is the pursuit of happiness, and incidentally, knowledge. As the dormitory enjoys the squad system, introduced last year, few house meetings are called. For those assemblies the three squads unlucky enough to have drawn the bad penny, or whatever it is they do draw, put on a performance generally greeted with great hilarity. On one occasion we were allowed to see ourselves as others see us, the occupants of a Rubberneck Wagon. Pike's Peak or Bust was the luring slogan on the vehicle. Revol- ving umbrellas served as wheels. Noises usually associated with the bursting of toy balloons and the collapsing of the left rear wheel gave the semblance of a puncture. The raucous voices were next raised in protest against the sudden lack of gas, replenished by the imagin- ary contents of a can labelled Enthusiasm. On another occasion we gazed with true small-town amazement at Wild Nell of' the Prairie a good old mellerdrammer . To be sure scenery, horses, canoes were mostly in our mind's eye Csee Mr. Huntj, but the characters played with great feeling the different parts: Lady Vere de Vere Cgentlemen still prefer blondesjg Handsome Harry fthe boyish bob has its usesj, Sitting Bull, his squaw, and Chief Stick-in-the-Mud, the deep dark villains, and Wild Nell, the real bad-land cut-up who went west with a silver paper cutter in her heart. The prize Winning performance, though not intended as such, was a fire drill staged, in vulgar parlance, at 11.00 P. M. At the end of three deafening minutes, girls straggled down stairways with blurred eyes and impolite yawns while the gong kept up its infernal clamor. One girl opened wide her windows, left her room in darkness and her door shut in exact reversal of the rules of a Fire drill. Perhaps they all believe in keeping the home fires burning at any cost.

ANNA REYNOLDS Although We are a rather small family here in Normal Hall, we have managed to enjoy, among ourselves, many happy events which we try to chronicle. As is customary every year, Normal and Woodward Hall competed in the Inter-Dorm Sing held late in the month of May, 1926. Everyone remembers that starry night with the flaring torches-the night Normal Hall won the banner, to keep it another year within her walls. ...g 103 E... Blow, Bugle, Blow ...... 1927 NORMAL OFFERING In November of 1926, the annual reception given in honor of Mrs. Bxoyden, wife of Prin- cipal Boyden, was held in Normal Reception room, after which open house was held until dinner time. Normal Hall next held an eerie, old-fashioned Hallowe'en party, and then a few weeks later a Christmas party. Of course we had a Christmas tree, and even Santa Claus came. We will never forget the looks of astonishment on some faces when Santa refused to give a certain girl her present because she could not tell him of two good things she had done this year. Again another thoroughly good party ended with refreshments-cookies, ice cream, nuts and candy. Space demands that we say no more of the fun and the activities, with their ever in- creasing feeling of good fellowship which is manifest in the social life of our dormitory. To Normal Hall we pledge ourselves, our love, our steadfast loyalty. ANNA REYNOLDS Normal Hall's Index to Modern Poetry . . . . . . . . . HANNAH BOWDEN Here and There . . . The Deserted Village .

We have enjoyed every minute since that Sunday in September when Miss Hall, our house- mother, welcomed us back. This year there were eighteen girls living in Gates House. ' At our first house meeting, our president, Ruth Swift, explained the privileges and duties that befell us as residents. Most of the duties were agreeable ones, and all of the privileges were pleasant. The end of the first term brought a few changes. We were very sorry to lose Elizabeth Hathaway through illness. Besides the girls in the house we have such a family of dolls and animals! Romeo, Munty, Tommy Lad and Ikey, are characters whose fortunes concern us greatly. No one will ever forget our delightful Christmas party, either. There has been a real atmosphere of home in Gates House, all the year, and we know that those who make their home here after us will grow to love it as we do. MILDRED FRANK HALL OF FAME CA special report to the Normal Offering, 2050 A. DQ It is with great pleasure that your reporter presents to you the following article covering the Hall of Fame. That the readers of this magazine may follow the subject more intelli- gently, it may be well to speak of its location and inhabitants. The Hall is located on an obscure star about fifty miles due south of Mars, and is named after Russell Marshall, the famous explorer, who made his first stop there during his famous trans-universal flight back in 1950, just a century ago. He took with him, if you will par- don our editorial pride, our present editor's great grandfather, joe Condon. Father Time graciously received your reporter and appointed as his chief guide Bob Kiley. Mr. Kiley was engaged in reading a ponderous volume of the latest ideas in electro- cuting atoms and naturally rather resented Father Time's interruption. He led us to a room with many little projections, which formed browsing corners. There were many people arguing, chatting, or joking in each corner. Here Mr. Kiley utterly abandoned his charge and resumed his study. Your reporter then approached a person in whom all citizens of Bridgewater feel an interest: the one-time principal of our present school, Mr. Arthur C. Boyden. Mr. Boyden introduced us to the gentleman in a toga with whom he had been speaking. It was Phidias, reputed architect of the Parthenon. just at that moment a loud babble arose at a far end of the Hall and we immediately rushed to see what was happening. Grouped about Chopin's piano were several famous ...r 105 5... l927 NORMAL OFFERING musicians, among whom were Dvorak, Mendelsohn, Beethoven and Marcella Smithg and with them were a number of noted psychologists, most prominent of whom were Judd, Thorndike and Mr. Hunt, a former instructor in our school. In answer to our inquiries we learned that Mr. Hunt had just finished a recital of twentieth century jazz. When the audience departed Mr. Hunt smilingly opened the interview. Dr. Thorndike did it, he said. After a countless number of treatments my musical synapses responded and my natural music capacity was allowed to develop. But, he sighed, I have failed to respond to treatment for memory lapses as applied by Kilpratrick and Kay Tobin, two of our best psychologists. Not to this day can I recall the number of my car back in 1926 At this moment Elwin Kerr approached. At the sight of him, your reporter remembered the financial muddle of the accounts of the present school store and so asked Bunny for his advice. Go back to my policy, said Mr. Kerr, cash and nothing but. He was going to elaborate, but just then we saw Eleanor Farrell, the wonder-sculptress of late fame, and immediately asked her for an interview. I got my start in plastercine, at Bridgewater Normal, said Miss Farrell, but the real thing was the bust of Miss Roth. For fifty years the world did not recognize it, but at last her fifteenth cousin bought it from my brother's heirs and presented it to the history department of Bridgewater Normal School. Space does not permit the giving of more detailed accounts of further interviews with the great, but a partial list of those who granted your reporter's request for a few statements are as follows: Mr. Durgin-author of New Math. Made Easy for Genius. Hannah Bowden-who established a new gym. system, neither formal or informal. Marie Hayes-who, as editor, ran College Humor on a paying basis. Dick jason-who passed the law requiring all teachers to be able to do deep-knee bending without falling over. Agnes Morey-who so well impersonated Miss Burnell that she ran the Training School for a whole day. CEditor's Note: The reporter forgot to say that nearly all the class of 1927, of B. N. S., are either in the Hall of Fame or are on the waiting list.j CORA M. VINING B2 THE SPIRIT OF BRIDGEWATER To a freshman, the spirit of Bridgewater is even more vivid than to upper-classmen who are so well acquainted that they don't stop to analyze their feeling. On my first trip to Bridgewater, I noticed the spirit of eagerness. The manner in which classmates greeted each other impressed me. My first impression was that they thought more of good times than they did of their studiesg but after knowing them better, I found this was not true. More displayed than at the high school, is a spirit of helpful cooperation. The students are not afraid to share with each other. DOROTHY SCANLON ...Q 106 Q...

The two branches of this association are the Dormitory Council and the Student Council. The Dormitory Council is that branch of the Student Government Association which regu- lates the problems of dormitory life.

Two councillors were elected from each group, who met with Miss Giberti every two weeks and discussed day student affairs. With the opening of the athletic season, the day students began to show their mettle. Some were to be found on practically every championship team. At the beginning of the year the day students' room was a drab affair. Although spac- ious and comfortable, it lacked the cheery and hospitable appearance that color always lends to a room. With the assistance of the Art Department, gay curtains were hung in the win- dows, making an attractive and inviting place in which to study and rest. On January 24, 1927, the Day Student Social was held in the gymnasium. Everyone co-operated and made this party a great success both socially and financially. These are just a few illustrations of the spirit manifested by the day students of this school. We are all trying to do our part to make the school justly proud of us. To future day students we extend the wish that you will be as happy and successful as we have been. SOCIAL ACTIVITIES M ILDRED FLYNN Chairman . ELEANOR GOMLEY Vice-Chairman .

The Social Activities Committee had a very successful year. The members have en- deavored to keep this year's standard of social life as high as in past years. The first event was the acquaintance social, an affair which affords opportunity for old and new students to become acquainted and to start the formation of friendship bonds with which our school life is filled. Later, one of the most delightful affairs was the recep- tion and tea for Mrs. Boyden. These events were followed by Wednesday evening socials, by Friday evening socials given by various clubs and classes of the school, and by basket- ball games on Saturday nights. Our new auditorium has given us the opportunity to have interesting lectures and en- tertainments. The Social Activities Committee thanks the members of the student body for their co- operation, and extends its best wishes to next year's members.

GENEVIEVE TURNER The Dramatic Club of 1926-'27 has been especially fortunate, for to us was given the honor of presenting the first play on the new stage of the Horace Mann Auditorium. We chose for our fall play Madaliene Lucette Riley's Mice and Men and set earnestly to Work on it. It was with keen disappointment that we received the news that the stage would not be properly equipped for a performance before the first of the year. All rehearsals were postponed. In the meanwhile, in order to keep busy, we gave a social in the gymnasium Friday, December 17, 1926. After Christmas, rehearsals were once more started for Mice and Men and continued without any further delay. The play was given Friday, February 11, 1927 before the largest and most enthusiastic audience that it has ever been the privilege of the club to play before. ' The spring play was Shakespere's Much Ado About Nothing , which closed the activities of the club for this year. Miss Adelaide Moflitt, our Directress, has brought us through a red letter year when those of us who know her and love her best, realize that what she did for us this year, she did in spite of added personal worryg and we appreciate her unselhshness.

MARGARET DUNHAINI THE SPIRIT OF BRIDGEWATER Bridgewater Normal School is said to have an outstanding characteristic called Bridge- water Spirit. just what it is, is not yet fully clear to my mind, but I can say the following: The impression one gets in assembly is the spirit of unity-the school working together with such ease that it seems like one individual. The effect is so great that the spirit of unity spreads among the graduates. HELEN ROACH ...Q 119 5... 1927 NORMAL LOFFERING A KLIQRL RYH LIBRARY CLUB Back row, left to right. A. BARNARD, C.

MARY BAIR The Members of the Library Club of 1926 and 1927 have had a most enjoyable year together. Our year started with the initiation of twelve faithful and hard-working girls. At the beginning of the year it was decided that a definite standard for reading would be decided upon. Two lists from which we were to read were chosen, namely, the state list and twenty books from a list of modern fiction. Furthermore, the Library Club has under its special supervision, the HBrowsing Corner or the Cora A. Newton Collection in the library, which was started through the efforts of its graduate members. The Club was also instrumental in having Mildred Bass Anderton present the play entitled Cousin Kate on the evening of December 10, 1926, in the Horace Mann Auditorium. Then, too, the Library Club presented two programs in chapel. On the night of November 4, 1926, the club was informally entertained by Miss Carter, Miss Hill, and Miss Rogers. These are a few of the happenings that made it a happy year for us.

MARGARET MCDERMOTT Vice-President . . CATHERINE O'NEIL Secretary-Treasurer ......... ESTHER MAYO T. C. proved to be such a popular club this year that we were forced to have a long wait- ing list. Our initiation made a very appropriate beginning for a successful year. A most enjoyable Valentine Social was held on February 4, 1927. For this occasion, the gymnasium was attractively decorated with cupids, hearts and potted plants. We are now working on the plans for the plantings around our new buildings. We have been enjoying this form of activity, very much. The club has also been instrumental in presenting exercises in chapel. We presented a debate, the subject of which was, Should the trees in the Bridgewater Common be cut down and new ones planted? The afliirma- tive won. Altogether T. C. has had a very successful year. ESTHER MAYO LITTLE RED MARKS Is there anything that can make so great an impression on one's mind, so upset the serenity of any earnest student, as little red marks? just after a hearty lunch, when every- one is happy, and everything is right with the world, for instance. Absolutely nothing could disturb our peaceful contented bliss. True is the old saying, Ignorance is bliss . But woe be to the blissful ignoramus who suddenly awakes to the realization that before him is a perfectly neat, attractive, in fact, rather important looking document which he very well remembers compiling himself. This happened to me. Mine was no piece of work to be scoffed at: nearly a whole evening I spent on it. An editor wouldn't turn that article down, if he knew his business. The very way my name is signed is an art. Here! What are these peculiar red marks on the margin? A small p at the beginning of nearly every line. My paper is ruined. What mean these red atrocities? I will ask the author of them. I do this ...... Slowly, sorrowfully, solemnly, sadly, with faltering, dragging steps, I return to my chair ........ The teacher is saying, l'Don't be discouraged if your first paper is not a success. Oh, no! We are not discouraged. We cannot feel. Even the deep sarcasm of that remark leaves us unscathed. We must all die sometime, some quickly, some lingeringly! No, I am not discouraged: but how I wish the Dean would let us go to the movies tonight.

FLORENCE NORLANDER The Glee Club was fortunate in discovering much musical ability among the incoming students, a number of Whom were soon incorporated into our ranks with an appropriate reception. Our intensive work began when we were honored with an invitation to sing at the dedi- catory exercises of the new school building. A series of three line concerts in Brockton, also one by the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Plymouth Memorial Hall were attended by the Glee Club. In accordance with establish- ed custom, members of the Glee Club sang carols at the Christmas dinner, and also led the student body in serenading our principal, Mr. Boyden. With the commencement of daily chapel exercises, a choir composed of twenty, with alternating substitutes, was formed from the Glee Club to lead in singing. The annual concert offered a pleasing entertainment. Musical numbers rendered at Baccalaureate and for Graduation Day exercises, com- pleted the activities of the Glee Club, whose success, in large measure, we attribute to the untiring efforts of our director, Miss Rand. DOROTHY MITCHELL THE SPIRIT OF BRIDGEWATER The girls attending Bridgewater Normal School usually enter it with the feeling that they are here in earnest preparation for their life career. In many other schools, the students have no definite goal in view, and so their interests have time to wander in various directions. MOLLIE OLIKER THE SPIRIT OF BRIDGEWATER Did you ever see, hear of, or feel the 'fSpirit of Bridgewateru? Of course you must have, because it is always appearing here and there in all places and on all occasions. The spirit is the spirit of Loyalty. The interest of every pupil here is centered upon his school. The school comes hrst. The pupils support it, and are loyal to it in every way. ...Q 125 lg... 1927 NORMAL OFFERING ORCHESTRA President . . . . . . GERTRUDE COREY Secretary-Treasurer ...... .

At our regular Thursday evening meetings we made plans for many interesting things, among them being- a trip to the Brockton Fair, arrangements for the always popular Scout Dance, and two sandwich sales. All projects proved enjoyable and profitable. In addition to this the troop devoted one meeting, before Christmas, to the addressing of envelopes for the Anti-Tuber- culosis League. Furthermore, the scouts took charge of one morning's chapel exercises. These and other events of the past year show that the scout movement is becoming an increasingly important factor in the school. HARRIET CHACE ON COFFEE FRAPS Coffee Fraps are my favorite form of refreshment. I always order them when I have the chance, and when someone else is ordering, a Coffee F rap always appears before me, which shows that my friends know my taste. I In the first place, I love to watch a Coffee Frap being made,-first the round scoop full of ice cream-then the milk and syrup, that slides down the inside of the tall glass, and lands with a soft plop on the ice cream. These are just the essential preliminaries: the main point of interest to me is the little machine that so thoroughly mixes the ice cream and liquid. It starts off with a whirr and a gurgle. It is hard work to get through the ice cream, but after that it is plain sailing. I grow so impatient waiting for the process to be over that I wonder if the man has forgotten that my precious Coffee Frap is being churned. But finally he takes it off, and pours the foaming mass into my waiting glass. My mouth begins to water, and almost too hurriedly I reach for the straws. Invariably they are way down at the farther end of the soda fountain. I secure one, plunge it into the Frap, and take one long draught. How the cold, delicious liquid refreshes my throat! To my mind, it is second to none. Of course the number of calories is not small: but somehow I can always find a reason to sacrifice a few extra pounds for my favorite drink.

Our purpose as expressed in our Constitution, is to promote a high physi- cal efticiency in every girl, and to give every girl the opportunity of learning and enjoying our sports and recreations, always keeping in mind, however, while we enjoy our games for the pleasure we get from them, yet we should work for something more than pleasure. There are four things that a girl must have before she is considered worthy of being allowed to wear the final award of W. A. A., the wearing of which proves that she may rightly be considered a type of the ideal VV. A. A. member. These four things are,+Service, Sportsmanship, Scholarship, and Stability,-called the four S's. ...Q 131 g... 1927 NORMAL OFFERING - M - It is easier to say that we must have these qualities than it is to attain them, for they are not acquired by working steadily for an hour, or a week, or a term. We cannot play the game for an hour and then say, Now I've such and such an amount of Sportsmanship, nor can we say after working on a committee, That's so much more toward my being of service. These four qualities are gained little by little, unconsciously. A girl, knowing the standards set by W. A. A. sets her own standards and in all her work endea- vors to live up to them. W. A. A. offers her the activities in which these qualities are more easily seen. These are some of the things that every member of W. A. A. is working for-through all her sports and activities, every minute of the time from the day she joins until she graduates. By that time, if she has really attained the standards of W. A. A., she has made the practical side measure up to the ideal side, always working so that W. A. A. will be doing bigger and better things, and using her own sportsmanship, scholarship, and stability for serv- ing in bigger and better ways, making real the pledge she took on becoming a member: HI pledge allegiance to my health and to the strength for which it stands, strength of body, mind and spirit, the three in one for service to God, country, and humanity. Many activities have been carried on this year. Class B emerged as champions from an especially successful hockey season. The class basketball champion was Class C. The fast Red and White game proved a victory for the White team, as it did last year. Bowl- ing attracted more girls than ever before, during the winter. The baseball diamonds were centers of activity in the spring months, while tennis had its place in the spring as well as the fall. Health and hikes were ever present during the year. One forward step taken by W. A. A. was the sending of a delegate to Cornell to attend the National Athletic Conference of American College Women. It is expected that many helpful suggestions as to the solution of problems met during the year will be a result of representative attendance at this confer- ence. CLARA ALMSTEAD THE SPIRIT OF BRIDGEWATER I've felt it, we've all felt it: but what is it? I think it is the striving of everyone for high ideals. The school itself stands for high ideals, and all its pupils do, too. Each one is looking toward the future, and there is a certain eagerness about each to be able to come up to his own ideal and that of the school. We are all proud to say, I go to Bridgewater. The spirit of Bridgewater must be the spirit of idealism. l I CHRISTINE SWANSON ...g 132 5... ORGANIZATIONS .?m '5A w 1 111 ... 'r -L: Q .

Thus a majority of the games played were in favor of Normal. The Athletic activities have been well managed and coached and their results have been very gratifying. Many men have earned letters in one or more sports. They are as followsg Baseballg Hiatt, Porter-Shirley, Osborn, John Murphy, Albert Murphy, Reilley, McCarthy, O'Donnell, Healy, Lankalis, Denham, Campbell, and Doll. Soccerg Newbury, Tanner, Altier, Belcher, Porter-Shirley, Churchill, Shaw, Hill, Iennes, Genaitis, Purdon, Webb and Longmore. Tennis, Kiley, Porter-Shirley, Osborn and Murphy. Basketball: Kiley, Porter-Shirley, Lankalis, Kerr, Reilley, Hill, Mantyla, O'Connell, and Shaw. Carl H. Porter-Shirley deserves honorable mention as being the only man in the history of the Nor- mal School ever to receive letters in tive different athletic activities: He earned four during the last year and one in football two years ago. Y The Normal Athletic Association has had a very prosperous year. The Annual Dance in February was a decided success both financially and socially, and we wish to extend our appreciation to all who helped to make it so. We are especially indebted to Dean John Kelly and Mr. Frank Crozier, Director of Physical Education, who have ever been ready and willing to help us in every possible way. PERCY CLIFTON CHURCHILL, Sporting Editor. A THE SPIRIT OF BRIDGEWATER The many ways in which the entering classes are treated as the equals of the upper classes are shown in sports and other amusements. All are called upon to help. The fresh- men get the feeling of independence, and the ability to carry on things themselves,-to show what they are made of. The students are made to feel that they are wanted. None is left out. In someschools only a certain number carry on everything. The others are on-lookers. This does not create interest, for the on-lookers are not going to support things from the outside: they want to have something to do with the inner parts of a project. In many schools where the cry is We have no support for our activities, if the other side of the thing could be considered, the condition could be remedied, and a proper spirit of equality could be aroused.

Mice and Men Much Ado About Nothing 1927 NoR1v1,AiII OFFERING -I School Days in England Schooldays, schooldays, dear old golden rule days, Reading and 'riting and 'rithmetic Taught to the tune of the hickory stick. Though the last line applies but figuratively to most American grammar schools, it is taken literally in English elementary schools. Not to the extent pictured in Dickens' works is the cane used, but often enough to leave a lasting impression. However, since I do not wish you to feel that the schoolmaster always has the cane ready I had better tell more about the English schools. My first introduction to school life took place in Nelson, a small town of Lancashire, in the northwestern part of England. There were two kinds of schools there, Board cor- responding to American public, and HR. C. or parochial. Children might enter school when they were three years old and were compelled to go at the age of five. The first class was known as the Babies' Class, and, with the following Second Class and First Class , formed the kindergarten department. Here we were taught to read and write. We learned our A' B' C's by chanting. There was an old woman who lived in a shoe She had so many children she didn't know what to do. There was Annie A and Bobbie B, Fat and chubby Charlie C, Dolly D and Elsie E Fannie F and Gertie G. and so on through the whole alphabet. We learned to count by wooden beads strung on wires in a little wooden frame, and we formed letters in sand placed on our desks. Even in these low grades the cane was freely used. Standard I was the next class we entered. Here we were taught reading, writing, arith- metic, history, English, singing Qby rotej and sewing. We were quite advanced in the lat- ter art and progressed far enough to make petticoats with the skirts pleated into the bodice. Standard II and III were in the same room. We continued the same subjects as in Stan- dard I and added geography to our list. The learning of poetry was stressed and each pupil memorized several poems. Tennyson's Passing of Arthur was assigned in parts so that by rising one after the other we could recite the whole poem. In this grade also we learned to knit tam o'shar1ters and make paper patterns. We waded through long division and were introduced to the metric system of weights and measures. Arithmetic in England is more complicated than in the United States. Here it is easy to work in dollars and cents, far easier than to reckon twelve pence to a shilling, twenty shillings to a pound, twenty-one shillings to a guinea, and to cope with threepenny bits, sixpences, shillings, florins, half crowns, crowns, half-sovereigns, half-guineas, sovereigns and guineas in determining what coins a shopman would give in change. Of course the task was rendered easier than it sounds by our daily use of the money. To enter Standard IV we had to, transfer to another school. Here we were taught his- tory, geography, arithmetic, science, English, singing, and sewing. Our science was chiefly experimental, and we learned to make wood stain, furniture polish, shoe polish and soft soap. ...Q 138 5... T SToRiES AND ESSAYS One day we each brought a pair of shoes to school and had a Shoe shining contest. The winner received a penny. Here I might describe our usual school dress. The girls wore frocks usually of dark material, and over these, light pinafores or pinnies . The boys wore short trousers Something like the soccer pants at the knee and held up by braces. On top they wore jerseys or waistcoats and coats and round white celluloid collars which had to be washed frequently. Both wore woolen Stockings, in the majority of cases not reaching up to the knee, and clogs. These latter had leather tops and wooden soles with irons some- thing like horseshoes on soles and heels. Brass toe plates and fastenings completed them. You may shudder at the idea of wearing them, but I assure you they were both warm and comfortable. Shoes were worn only on Sundays and holidays. Vacations are always important in school life, so I must not neglect them. We had two weeks vacation at Christmas and Easter, a week at The Feast , or Whitsuntide, and one month, July, in the summer. Then we also had occasional days, Empire Day , the king's birthday and examination days. We did not have regular examinations as we do here, but at regular intervals we would dress in our Sunday best and prepare for a visit from the inspector. Upon his arrival the girls would curtsey and the boys pull their forelocks at the same time wishing him Good morning . He would then proceed to ask various questions which we would answer to the best of our ability. If we were Successful we received half- holiday, but if we failed to reflect credit on our teachers the cane was retrieved from its hiding place, where it reposed during his visit, and we spent the day in study. And now I am back again to Standard IV. English was stressed more than any other subject. We memorized Tennyson's HLady of Shallott , Byron's The Eve of Waterloo , Hamlet's Soliloquy and Wolsey's Fare- well . We also started to read more serious books. The only one I remember is Children of the New Forest. In sewing class we were taught to darn stockings and mend other articles of clothing. Once a week during school hours we went to the baths and were taught how to Swim and dive, while after school we had the opportunity to learn how to play tennis. Our history stopped in this standard. At this time also we had copybooks . They contained lines of proverbs and quota- tions. Under each written line were two or three empty lines which we filled with imita- tions of the first line. We did much work in transcribing and changing poetry to prose. We also wrote many compositions. In Standards V, VI and VII, which were highest, we continued along the same lines. When we finished Standard VII, if we had enough money, we went on to higher schools, but the greater majority went to work. A few differences that I have neglected to mention are the use of slates instead of paper throughout the grades, the absence of examinations, and the fact that we never knew our marks and no report cards were given out. To compare grades let me state that when a pupil transfers from an English school to an American he is usually placed one grade higher and in one case I heard of, the child went from Standard V to Grade VIII and graduated in due course. f Though English elementary schools may outrank American, the fact remains that En- glish children have not the same opportu-nity for higher education that children in America have. KATHLEEN WINFREE KP 3 ...Q 139 5... l927 NORMAL OFFERING School in Scotland I have been asked to write about school in Scotland, but, to tell the truth, I know very little about it, and even that little is fragmentary and hazy, for I was torn from my native heath Cthat word heath is put in merely for effect, Gourock is a comfortable little town with properly paved streets and substantial stone housesj-where had I got to? oh yes-at the tender age of nine. Here we are describing Gourock when we ought to be deep in the educa- tional system of Scotland. I was introduced to the above mentioned system at the age of five in a suburb of Glasgow. The school building was of stone Cpractically everything in Scotland is built of stonel, sur- rounded by a high iron fence. The first class I was placed in was taught by the headmis- tress, who is head of all the women teachers in a school, the headmaster is head over the whole school-the principal, in other words. I do not remember whether there are two or three of these early classes, nor do I remember their exact names, but they are designated the threepenny class or the sixpenny class, depending on the cost of the reading book used. Be it noted now that books and all other school supplies are bought by the pupils. School began at nine and ended at three for us, but not until four for the older pupils. The girls' playground was separated from the boys' by a high stone wall. In the girls' play- ground was a long shed with one side open, here we played in wet weather. Probably there was a similar shed in the boys' yard, but I never saw over the wall. The very little boys played in the girls' yard because the big boys were too rough. At recess-time one of the teachers played the piano in the school hall, when any girl who had brought her skipping- rope might go in and skip in time to the music. Another teacher helped the children to keep in rhythm. Most of the time I was in this school there were two teachers in the class-young women familiarly known as HP. T's Cpupil teachersl. Of the curriculum I remember little except the drawing and the sewing. The sewing was on a pillow-case, which I was making by hand, but this was not finished, for my family moved to Gourock at this time. However, before we take up the Gourock school, I wish to mention a very pleasant custom I remember in this, my baby school. In the winter the teacher asked us how many children wished to take bulbs. A little later, when the hyacinth bulbs arrived, they were distributed to the children who had ordered them, and the children were given a little instruction on the proper care of hyacinths. The bulbs were taken home. On an appointed day, the plants, now in bloom, were brought back to school and prizes awarded for the best. Gourock is a small town about thirty miles from Glasgow. The school I attended here looked pretty much the same as my baby school, except that the stone window ledges were all grooved where pupils had sharpened their slate pencils. To sharpen a slate pencil one placed the side of the pencil, near one end, against the angle of the window-sill and rubbed the pencil back and forth-a push and pull motion, not from side to side. When I entered this school I was placed in the first standard. We sat two at a desk, boys on one side of the room, girls on the other. The strap was very much in evidence. If one came late, without adequate excuse, or whispered too much, or did very poor work, he or she Coh, yes, girls, tool was called to the front of the room and one or two whacks adminis- tered on outstretched palm. I think that I was introduced to long division in this standard. All arithmetic, and some other lessons too, I think, were done on slates. Each pupil had a, slate which, when not in use, stood in a slit in the back part of the desk, just at the back of the groove for pencils. ...-,E 140 lg... STORIES AND ESSAYS In the second standard I learned to knit. One hour each afternoon was devoted to either sewing or knitting. The first thing we made was a mufiier. Next we learned to use steel needles. On these we made wristers at first, for practise, then stockings. In music there was a great deal of drill in do, re, me. Whenever there was to be a drawing lesson, we were told what flowers to bring, and I can well remember going one noon to the florists to buy two or three daffodils for the afternoon's lesson. By this time we had two drawing books, one for crayon Work and the other for pencil. In the third standard we began the study of geography, history, and the catechism. Instead of a geography text book, each pupil had an atlas. Our history readers covered the material in a series of simple, connected stories, well illustrated by attractive colored pictures. The catechism lesson came first in the morning. The catechism used is the shorter one of the Church of Scotland. So much a part of the school equipment is the catechism that there is printed a school edition with the multiplication tables on the back cover. In the upper grades the study of the Bible is taken up, and a Bible is as much a school book as the reader or the history. Examinations are more terrible to the student in Scotland than they are here, for the examinations are not conducted by the regular teacher, but by two inspectors, men from the board of education. Up through the third standard all my teachers were women, but had I continued in the Scottish school system, I should have had men teachers from the fourth standard on. Among the things which I remember best are the copy-books, or notebooks, in which we did our written home-work. They were thin books with shiny colored covers-red, blue, green, or black. The fine white paper was ruled in the usual manner for penmanship, but the note-books for arithmetic, or sums, as the Scotch pupil would say, were ruled off in squares-one figure in a square. Nobody could be careless or untidy when writing in such a note-book! The little I have been able to tell you about school in Scotland may give you the im- pression that school over there is very different from school over here, but I did not find it so. I fitted into the American schools almost as if I had never known any others. DOROTHEA BRUCE '27, HOW CLASS A IS SPOKEN TO Make a course of study.

At Hrst we are so completely happy that we can do nothing but admire in silent awe. Then our pent up emotion speaks forth in praise, gratitude, and thanks for the safe return of him whom we love. We do not wish to miss anything which he has to tell us, so great is our respect for himg we are not content to have him among us and not be able to share his company, lest we lose something which he has brought home to show or to tell us. VVe speak of his worth to others, of what he has added to his storehouse of experiences since he has been away, and we are anxious to draw others under his influence that they may profit by his adventures. Whatever happens, this man never passes a day without making some- one happyg his is the eternal privilege of benefiting humanity. Although the man will die in time, his work will remain after him, a constructive shaft to the memory of an altruistic nature. His loving spirit will shine among us, a guide to our wayward earthly habits, forever helping, checking and leading us on to the realizations of that most desirable goal-that of complete living. Somewhat analagous to the life of this man from the time that he returns from his travels, is the history of our assembly exercises from the dread day two years ago, when further assemblies were made almost impossible by the well-known tragedy of the fire, until the present, when it is our privilege to meet daily in one of the most beautiful auditoriums in the state, the Horace Mann Auditorium. T How eagerly we awaited the notice which told us that the longed-for day had comeg- the school was to meet, for the first regular assembly exercises in two years, in the new audi- torium! There were few of the upper classmen, at least, who did not feel a sense of perfect har- mony once more present in our school life, as those first assembly exercises took place. At last we had returned to that normal state so much desired for two years. The tribute was one of deep silence, the perfect recognition of an invaluable endowment. So we have gone, day after day, not wishing to lose anything that the assembly might give us, and not content to have it there without sharing in all its benefits, social, intellectual, and moral. We have met, through this instrument, many of our schoolmates whom other- wise we would not know because of the difference of classes or for some similar reason, we have discussed here our petty troubles and neglectsg and here we have made friendships which, in years to come, will ever point back to the assembly as their birthplace. So enthusiastic are we about our assembly, that we speak of it to others, hoping to' bring them to a realization of the true worth of such a power for good. As these friends learn, by daily contact with the assembly, how much they are gaining both spiritually and materially, their praise of the assembly is joined to that of those who led them to the source of their gain. Thus the assembly steadily grows older,-each day imparting more and more of the worthwhile things to its community of students who remain constant to its enveloping and discriminating teachings. The Horace Mann Auditorium itself, like its predecessor, will some day become a unified part of the materials of which it is made, but its spirit will go down through the ages, a beacon to those who have been faithful to the one increasing purpose toward which it constantly tends,-that of teaching complete living. HELENA REDDY, '27. ...,-5 142 5... STORIES AND ESSAYS Our School It is new. Yes, and even the Seniors realize that they have yet to feel at home in its rooms and corridors through which the ring of hammers still echoes as the workmen finish the chapel in the right wing. It is new in beam and pillar, and freshly painted halls. Among many explorers of the new building we see some faces already touched with a tender love for their new school because they loved the old. To us, who loved it all, from its small- est brick to its living motto, Not to be ministered unto, but to minister, that old brick building still stands as our school of yesterday. Many young people have left its walls to live its motto and to spread its ideals while teaching. To them Bridgewater Normal School still means a towering brick building with granite steps and pillars, with picture-lined walls and much worn stairs. Long years ago when those treads were new and other seniors explored the halls of their new building, could they feel the ghost of their old school hovering over them and guiding their steps through the unfamiliar corridors of the new, as we do? No one can foretell the future of this new school. Yet, as we love its past in our school of yesterday, we shall love its present in our school of today and endeavor to make its future worthy of the pride of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. IQATHERINE CASXYELL The Family Has Scarlet Fever I A It isn't as if we hadn't had our share of sickness. Measles, whooping cough, mumps,- nearly the whole category of ordinary youthful diseases came in large doses to our huge family. In later years, when we asked what we had had, mother said that we had all had everything, she was sure. When the oldest boy, who was in high school, became sick with scarlet fever, he became responsible for one of our pleasantest family memories. Three-fourths of the children were in grammar school, and it was thrilling to be called out of the grade and told to go home because john was ill. It didn't occur to us to feel particularly anxious, for we took it for granted that whatever he had must be as negligible as all our previous sicknesses. Of course the house was quarantined, but not even a quarantine card can keep nine healthy children confined to one house. After mother had given up trying to restrain us, we enjoyed our- selves tremendously, playing throughout the neighborhood while less fortunate children were in school. Tiring of ordinary games, we stealthily went to the attic and climbed from attic window to ell roof to main roof, where we had a lovely time sliding in a stooping position from ridgepole to chimney. A neighbor whom we thought meddlesome telephoned to moth- er, who stopped our fun for fear of the roof's leaking. We substituted a less thrilling game of tent-making out of chairs and blankets in the parlor, sanctum sanctorum to most families. We were having such a lovely time that only the conditions of the premature lifting of the quarantine consoled us. A few yards in back of the house was a white clapboarded, square building called 'fthe shop , where father stored lumber and kept his carpenters tools. ...Q 143 E... I927 NORMAL OFFERING It was cleaned, a hole made in the roof for a stove pipe, and fixed up as a bedroom-living- room, with even a telephone installed. When John moved into the shop, we went back to school, envying him-as all the boys in the neighborhood did-his unique home. Seven years later mother regretted that john's hadn't been a family sickness. In the fall when the smallest boy came down with diphtheria, we were all thankful that the quaran- tine would be short. A few weeks later, when a girl came down with combined diphtheria and scarlet fever, she was sent to a contagion hospital by a loving but determined family, Upon her return after six weeks of exile, as luck would have it, within a week three sisters contracted scarlet fever and followed each other to the hospital. When the boys showed symptoms, mother resigned herself to the inevitable, sent for the girls, and settled down for the winter. It was in such a time that we found how many friends we had. There wasn't a day that there was not left at the door some contribution of magazines, games, or food. Once there were left some delicious raised doughnuts together with a note in almost illegible writing, which mother interpreted as 'ADO not give to the children. When they were all eaten by the well part of the family, we deciphered out f'Will not hurt the children. Another ,dis- appointment was a bottle of delicious Elderberry wine which turned out to be the most poisonous tasting stuff we thought existed. But there were some pleasant surprises. A neighbor who was thought close asked what kind of fruit we liked, for she wanted toibuy us some. We purposely named the most expensive kind, grapefruit, and laughingly predicted her return empty-handed or with a few less costly fruit, with some excuse. She left at the door several dozen grapefruit, a whole cratefull. ' That winter was a particularly severe oneg for weeks the snow was three feet deep under a thick crust. The boys particularly moaned that just the winter we have a lot of snow, we can't enjoy it. Towards the end of our quarantine,'when mother was busy in the front rooms downstairs, all six shut-ins put on rubbers over their bedroom slippers and coats over their bathrobes and played outdoors like small children. The neighbors were shocked, but we didn't care: the fun was more than worth any scolding, and mother's wasn't very harsh. S I Even a scarlet fever quarantine isn't interminable, so we eventually returned to school to make up our work. Wfere we entirely sorry for our absence? Not entirely.

I 92 7 NORMAL OFFERING A STORMCLOUD PICTURE Clouds in squally masses are in clouds of faded violet. The sky is close, And draped over earth In Hounces of gray dur1. The air radiates the drabness of the sky- Blankets the trees- Filters about the herbage- And changes the riversg It adds a touch of the unknown to the obvious. A moment everything is drear with greyness. Then slender rays streak through folded clouds: Long silver swords with metallic keenness Cut the haze. A Hre streak in the East Yawns and gleams A moment Prophesying Light! NIICHAEL O,BRIEN, '28 STA RS Twinkling they shine, So far above, gazing At us, who looking up Are lost in wonder at their beauty. There in the east, over the bay, Orion, the Hunter, proudly shows His belt of three bright stars, His sword of fainter ones. And over him brilliantly glows Aldebaran,-the fiery eye Of fierce Taurus, the Bull. Far to the north Cassiopeia points toward the North Star, And near this, as if to show That he, at least, ls not afraid of the Far North, The Great Bear calmly Holds his ground. Thus, these bright groups Appear to us below. I wonder how we look to them, . NVho seem to gaze and laugh at us, From their superior thrones. ELEANOR TEsroN1. NOSTALGIA Wlhen spring comes back across the far blue hills, And city-streets are full with dust again, Somewhere, I know-and knowledge may be pain Half-hidden paths are bright with daffodils, And little winds are blowing back their frills Revealing chaliced sunlight in the rain, Still silver-slanting down a hawthorne lane. Somewhere I know the pulse of April thrills. 1 Each dawn, across the smoky din of night, A stream of traffic floods the city street. But somewhere in the early morning light, The winds of home are blowing clean and sweet. Somewhere, I know, are yellow daffodils, Xlfhen spring comes back across the far blue hills. MARGARET DUNH.-XM, '28 SMILING They say if you smile you'll have wrinkles, But why on earth should you care? 'Cause smiling makes everyone happy, And dull days grow brighter and fair. A smile is a gay bit of sunshine, On anyone's face it can growg So why, if you're happy, stop smiling? Cvrouches have wrinkles, you know. And lines made by smiles are real lovely, They mirror a life worthwhile- A life full of sunlight for others to seeg It's a fine thing to smiley so, smile! RACHEL S. MARSDEN. QUIET AS A DREAM VVhere the spreading willow droops, And the sudden robin stoopsg All is as it was before Beauty drawn from life's full store. Nothing changed, though years have passed, Since Isaw and marvelled last, It's the same calm wonder spot. It seems Enchanted, quiet as a dream! M. LoU1sE PETERSON, JR. III ...4 148 5... POETRY CANDLES We had the candles lit last night And loveliness held sway, For fairy shadows leaped about Fantastically gay. A softly mellowed radiance Flickered and smiled at us, Our candles showered coziness, Were eerily luminous. Our terraced candelabra stood In the window broad and bay, While out of doors another one Winked back in a fairy way. A pair of jolly red ones Stood guard near the telephone: In the stairway draft they blinked and smiled, Gay Hreflies of our own. RACHEL S. MARSDEN. THE TUG OF WAR QVVith apologies to The Charge Of The Light Brigade Half an inch, half an inch, Half an inch onward, All into the campus pond Slid the eight Chundredl. Hold! cried the man in front The only answer was a grunt. Into the campus pond Slid the eight Chundredj. I-Iold! cried the man in front Was there no answering grunt? Down slid the man in front Then the crowd thundered. Theirs not to make reply, Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to do or die! Into the campus pond Slid the eight Chundredj. Soft slime to right of them, Black mud to left of them, Water in front of them Eddied and floundered. Stormed at with slime and dirt, Bravely they showed their worth Into the campus pond Slid the eightfhundredj. ...4 149 SYMPATHY I looked at a row of birches, Columns of mercury, They knew that I was weary, So they waved to me. I sat by a stream of water Prancing on to the seag It discerned my solitude, So it sang to me. I looked at the bright and silv'ry moon, As it lay in its onyx seag It knew that I was lonesome, So it smiled at me. MICHAEL O'BR1EN, '28 MOON MADNESS I've learned the moon's own madness And found its witching art, I've grasped its silver coldness And held it to my heart. Oh! you will be unhappy When talking love to meg For I've the moon's own coldness, No warmth doth come from me. For once my heart was loving And warm and unafraid, But blasts of winter taught me And woe and pain allayed. Oh, now the Winds of Winter Are not more cold than I, For I've the moon's own silver- Oh God! I must not cry. ELEANOR FREDETTE, B, CERTAI NTY Deep in my heart, I know the day must dawn Wlhen we have found the newest and the oldest ways, VVhen every fragile-threaded dream is gone, And all our far to-morrows are but yesterdays. Then through the mist,-across the wind-swept space- Shall come one flame of glory for a moment's span, And we shall know each other, face to face, And we shall learn to live again-where Life began. IVIARGARET DUNH.-XLI, '28. l927 NORMAL OFFERING IN THE DUSK OF DEATH In the dusk of death, I shall dream old dreams,- dreams I had forgotten. I shall hoard fleeting moments when I have known Beauty, when tense heavy strings have been played in harmony to some proud eternal sym- phony. I shall remember little things I have learned to know, -old books, brown-spotted and musty: white clouds grazing in a high summer heaven. And words: I shall mouth them smoothly, words that sting, words that are terrible with beauty, and words that are sleek to the touch. I shall remember only useless things-things that have no worth: the falling of a leaf thru the thin air of autumn: hills that doze beneath a haze of blue: the sleek, quivering skins of swift brown horses waiting in the sunlight: the warm, full friendliness of homemade breadzand new-plough- ed fields, heavy with the smell of earth, waiting for completion. I shall have forgotten in that dusk of death, old wars, old crimes, and theories, dreams that were stifled with strong hands, the suffering of all broken men. I shall have forgotten then, old wars and empty words, and who the winner was in the end. In the dusk of death, I shall hold only Beauty. I shall dream old dreams. C. A. C. '28 A VISIT TO FAIRYLAND I once sailed up a fairy river in a fairy barque, Past moon-misty mountains in the silver dark, By shining castles and fountains of pearl NVhere tiny red sailboats their white sails unfurl. There were tiny tin soldiers with coats of bright blue, IfVho saluted our ship as she sailed into view, They never would bother with fighting at all But practiced at marching and standing quite tall. But somehow I'd time to stay only for tea- QThere were crackers and milk, and some cookies for meh So I told the wee fairy I'd come back once more, But I've searched, and I've searched, but I've not found the door. MARJORIE CHACE, SR. I THE PLAY THEATER IN THE OLD BARN The stage is covered with dust, Everything is brown with rust. Our pretty curtain is old and worn, And our costumes are faded and torn. Where is our audience that thrilled And hallooed when the villain was killed, And wept when our heroine cried, And our hero valiantly died? There are our make-believe wings, A wig, an old bag, a few costumes and things, But our actors have all gone their ways- Forgot is the theater of childhood days. DOROTHY RIDDELL MOON MAGIC Pale yellow maiden of the Orient- Enshrouded in veils of golden web- VVhat magic you possess! I saw your silv'ry ray Clothe the rigid pine in cloak of gray. Then melt dimly-away. I saw you streak a blue-black lake With a daub of molten gold, Then slowly glide in your heavenly wake, Like a pale enchantress cold. The sharp outlines of the boulders Felt the magic of your gaze, I saw them slowly disappear Beneath a sheet of haze. No stony heart of human kind Can withstand when you smile- Oh, tell me, Oriental Maid The secret of your guile. . MICHAEL O'BRIEN ...Q 150 Q... II-IUMGR I ,W 3 ...g 151 5...

It's a spook! Horatio-I tole yuh to lay off that moonshine. Marcellus-And so did I. lst G.-Sure it's a spook. There she blows. 2nd G.-Good Grief, it is!
