LYMAN, A. M. DefJa1'tme1zt of Maflzenzafics A passenger on a western-bound train suddenly dropped his paper and stared over his spectacles at a Titanic figure slowly moving along the aisle. VVhere have I seen that man before? His majestic bearing, his genial expression seem famil- ial c . I believe he is Professor Ly- man of the Michigan State Nor- mal College. He is taking a year's vacation in the west where he is writing some valuable books of Mathematics. Qh, yes, I remember now that my daughter has often spoken of him. He is admired and loved by all of his students for his excellent but modest display of his wonder- ful store of knowledgefl MARK JEFFERSON, A. B. DCf7Cl'I'fl71,ClZf of Geognzplzy Professor Mark jefferson has been a prominent hgure about the Normal for fourteen years.

Under his magic touch each blade of grass, each pebble has a story of intense interest for us. He teaches us to see things we have never seen be- fore. lVe learn -to love the beauty of the world. But greater than his ability as a teacher we recognize his superb personality. By his daily life we learn the secret of contentment. page I2 Cr-IARLIQS O. Hovr, PH. D. .DCf7iIl'fllICIZf 0f ElI17lCCllft0ll Fully one-half of the student body comes in touch with this ad- mirable scholar. Under his guid- ance the ancient educators pro- pound their different theories. But he is larger than his subject. 'Wie admire Cornenius and Rous- seau but we love Dr. Hoyt. Long after we have forgotten the various facts of the History of Education, we shall remember the brilliant scholar who taught us, and who like Pestalozzi is K'Man, Christian, Citizen. lllllllllllllllllll E IllllillllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllilll!llll!lllllllllll!!lllllllllllllllillllllllIlllllllH1llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllii

PEARCE, A. M. Defnartzizc'-lzt of lllathcnzatics Professor Pearce is -the man at the wheel, the captain who is steer- ing the mathematical ship safely through the year 1915 during the absence of Professor Lyman. His enthusiastic spirit is influential in solving many of the campus prob- lems. Think of the pep he, can produce at a mass mee-ting, and the conhdence he can inspire in a team! Think of the assistance he annually gives the college by his excellent advice and help with the Aurora! Then rightfully term him the f'livewire'l of the campus. Page T4 SAMUEL B. LAIRD, A. M. Dc'j2a1't11ze1zt of Psychology- Professor Laird has many warm friends among both the faculty and student body, and he is a radi- ating center of good nature, even in the classroom as his well pat- ronized classes testify. His cheer- fulness, patience, and broad sym- pathies have made him loved and respected by all. He is an inspira- tion to all who come into close contact with him. In fact, to know him is to love him, and he is well worth knowing. i l'lllllllllllllllllllilll!!lll!!lllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllll1llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllilllllllllllvllllllllllli
