S. N. S. I, their Alma Pater, shall set forth the joys that come from within my covers. My make-up changes from year to year so that I may give variety to the entertainment of my silent listeners. One glimpse enthralls you to a further reading of my pages. What do these pages mean to you ? They mean that the happiest times of your lives, those fond memories of friends and associations will be stamped indelibly for future reflection. Happiness and joy are my daughters; service and conquest my sons. I shall give to you my daughters and reveal to you my sons for the glory of your Alma Mater and for your pleasure. I am the true and real portrayal of actual school life. Every- thing from the minor to the major affair is impressed on my leaves. Why do I occupy the important position of the school in the students ' realm, and why am I the pinnacle and climax of the school year ? No person is overlooked in my roll call. I am you, for you can give me life and spirit, or can cut the source of my being. No matter how you mould me, I am still you. Even though I have new people to fashion me each year, Carontawan, the soul of our school goes marching on. 3l6 1 0 Page Seven Dedication Since appreciation is an intangible quality, it can be expressed only through some outward token. Therefore, we, the class of 1926, as a concrete symbol of our appreciation for the guidance of our sponsor, do respectfully dedicate this book to Qeofge W. Cass Pane Eight GEORGE W. CASS ?

' ' Since the dawn of man people have tried intentionally, and without any purpose in view to hand down to their offspring and posterity some record of their lives and activities. By indistinct mumblings and later by carvings in stone man transmitted to his descendants the knowledge and attainments of the race. To him this knowledge meant the perpetuation and advancement of the human family. To us this knowledge means also progress, but it is not so apt to be lost as his, for in this age the printed page may be consulted if there is a doubt as to the advance man has made. Complexities have entered into the knowledge of today so that now it is divided into branches of learning, and records or tales to be told in one ' s leisure moments. A school yearbook does not represent any specific type of educational text. This volume, as others have done, reflects the type of school, the quality of teachers through the students, and the brand of students produced here. The tendency in most school annuals has been to deaden them by formal classification of material. This Carontawan Board has endeavored to avoid a path of false images, make this a mirror of student life, and yet make it a lasting literary work. Any piece of writing cannot truly picture the real spirit of our Alma ' Mater or the general atmosphere of the school itself. The pages within these covers may mean to a stranger only a series of faces and writings, but to us who have endeared ourselves unto our associates, it means more than words can tell. One glimpse of these leaves, so pure and chaste in thought, and we sense countless memories of by-gone days. We can feel a traditional air bound up with the book that carries us on wings of ecstatic joy into the land cf yesterday and sets us to dreaming of the sweetness of the future. Ah! We have found the key to memories and friendships. Carontawan! Let us use it when dull care overtakes us in the coming years. ' :«■ Fourteen The Facu WILLIAM R. STRAUGHN, Ph. D., Principal, Ethics.

Dramatic Club; Hiking- Club; Rurban Club. Helen is always laughing and full of fun. Never- theless, she is always ready to attack the duties of her class and if you need a true friend, here ' s one. Helen is studious, ambitious, and eager for ad- vancement. Endowed with these characteristics we are sure she will make a teacher of which M. S. N. S. will be proud. WILLARD ACKLEY Mansfield, Pa. Glee Club. Willard has made a prominent place for himself in our ranks. His composition, which has been chosen for our Class Song, shows the type of work he does. Willard is different from the rest of us in that he is the head of a family, and an interesting and brilliant little one at that. Success to you in music and the teaching profes- sion. LAVINIA ALLEN Carbondale, Pa. Lavinia — the smiling girl. However smiling she may seem she has her serious moments. She has many friends, gained by her pleasant disposition. She is also very much interested in Vails, especially those found in Carbondale. MARGARET ALLEN Galeton, Pa. Peggy Hiking Club; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. A girl who is recognized by her ever pleasing smile is loved by all in both North and South Hall. The motto, variety is the spice of life. is thorough- ly sanctioned by Peggy. She has chosen the Kinder- garten course and we can readily see that such a course is practical. Pntif I ii enl) in n HAZEL ARNOLD ULSTER, Pa. Hake- Dramatic Club. Always happy, ready to sing, fond of candy, ' n everything. Although Hazel has not been with us long we have learned to know and love her as a true friend and pal. We are sure Hazel will succeed as a teacher, if she follows the profession, but when we see her waitin ' for the evenin ' mail , we wonder just how soon she will begin a course in home-making — you know, still water runs deep. LUCY ASHLEY Mansfield, Pa. Cecelian Glee Club. Turn the dark clouds inside out applies to her, for nothing wipes off that smile even when the flivver goes wrong. Her spirit of helpfulness might win for her the name of Willing Willie . Last year Lucy ' s interests were centered mainly around the Tailor , but this year there has been a change and she now enjoys Marbles . Here ' s luck, anyway, Lucy. BEATRICE AYERS Clark ' s Summit, Pa. Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Bee or Beezums Bee is noted for her dimples, and her vivacious smile. Dancing is her favorite pastime. ' Art is her favorite subject. We all wish her success in her chosen vocation. She is a friend worth while, and one with a smile, Always ready with a jolly ' Hello! ' She is a friend who can grin, nor thinks it a sin To laugh away trouble or woe. MILDRED BAITY Covington, Pa. Mil Dark brown hair, big brown eyes, round face and a happy smile, that ' s Mil . She is always ready for a good time, especially at socials near B y , etc. But we won ' t tell anymore about that. This is not half though. Jolly and neat, pretty and sweet. Just to be with her is really a treat. Page Twenlv-lliree ELEANOR BALLARD Troy, Pa. Eli Although Eli is not one of the old familiar faces , having joined us this year after two years at Elmira College, we have found her to be a true friend to each and everyone, and the best kind of a sport. We often wonder why the daily pilgrimages to the Post Office, Eli! MARGUERITE BENJAMIN Scranton, Pa. Maggie Y. W. C. A.; Glee Club; Hiking Club. Marguerite is pious, industrious, studious, and good natured, in all a peach of a girl. She loves to finger the keys and warble like a bird, Wcrk a little, help a little. Busy all the day; Read a little rest a little, Have a little play. This is Maggie ' s motto. MARY BENNETT Laceyville, Pa. Mary is a good worker and a good teacher. After all that is of prime importance in our profession. Those who know her best say that she is full of fun, a good sport and always in for a good time. Add to that the fact that she is always willing to help others and you will have a fair estimate of Mary. MARGARET BITNER .Jersey Shore. Pa. Peg Dramatic Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A.; Athenaean Literary Society. Here ' s to Peg, an M. S. N. S. live wire. One can never feel blue around her. Her jolly good nature and her keen sense of humor make one see the funny side of everything; this has won for her many friends. Peg talks and talks, but what better asset could a school teacher and elocution ' st have? Here ' s wishing you success in your life work and may you always lie just Husky . f ' rtgr 7 n ' ■ initr MRS. LUTTRELL BAUDEMAN Speaking- of efficiency, well, that is Mrs. Baude- man. How we all have envied her many abilities! She is always ready for any undertaking, and enters into it with all the pep and vigor possible. She entered our midst at the beginning of the second semester and has become such a faithful and con scientious student that the class would not be com- plete without her. Covington, Pa. RUTH BLAIR Socials? Ruthie Blair, the girl with the pretty black hair. Sunny disposition ? Yes, except when told her teaching assignment was music, and then, oh, pshaw (Shaw). Her smile is very contagious and is the kind that wins her friends wherever she goes and having won them, keeps them, because she ' s a jolly good sport. MARGUERITE BOSSERT Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Rurban Club; Athletic Club. A cup of Irish wit — a glass of French daring, Black eyes, black hair, dancing feet, Charleston street, A way of not caring. Writing letters, hating fetters; belong to the go- getters, This girl. Marguerite, snappy and sweet, hard to beat: Our girl friend we greet. SARA BOWER Jersey Shore, Pa. Athenaean Literary Society; Hiking Club; Cecilian Glee Club; Y. W. C. A. Sara is a blond and as good as gold. Your first impression of her is that she is very quiet. But that won ' t last long for you will find her quite a live wire and always ready for fun. Ask Sorber . he knows. Singing is her hobby. She is a faithful worker in her societies. Loved by everyone in M. S. N. S., the best friend anyone could have. So here ' s to you, Sara, wishing you success and happi- ness. Page Twenty-five RONALD BRACE Mansfield, Pa. And here ' s Ronnie Brace. Any one who knows him knows he did love his Art class. Ronnie says he liked summer school better because there were only nine weeks and he spent three of them in camp . He is the accepted down-town sheik . He is impartial with his gifts and charms along- this line. But with all his faults, we love him still , and we are hoping for him his share of the world ' s success. MARTHA BRATZ Cross Forks, Pa. Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Quiet? Yes. Martha is quiet, but we like her just the same. When she makes a friend she makes a friend throughout. She is studious but likes to have a good time, too. EMMA BRIGHT Throop, Pa. Emersonian Literary Society; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A.; Art Club. To know her is to love her. She talks very little, but when she does she says something. Emma comes to us from Throop, rather a small place, but then it is the small dynamo which fur- nishes power to light a whole city. So it is with Em , she can enlighten you on any subject. She does not seem to pay much attention to the boys here, but— there ' s a reason. Em excels in Arts . FLORENCE BUCKLEY Montrose. Pa. Athletic Club; Mansfield Masquers. Florence, one of our late arrivals, is so tiny that her room-mates decidely have the upper hand with her. These same room-mates can vouch for her wit and the quickness with which she has an answer ready for every bright remark. Nobody can get ahead of Florence. She is said to be a fine actress. I ' n ' j, 1 ' u t ' fll ' I IRENE BYSTROM Arnot, Pa. Athletic Club; Rurban Club; Y. W. C. A.; Dra- matic Club. Did you say quiet? Well, yes, maybe, until you know her. But she surely can hold her own. We sometimes wonder why Irene loves to go home week- ends. Arnot must have some attraction. Irene is one of the very sweetest girls in the school and proved a great success in Junior High work. She has the respect and love of all who know her. LAURA CANFIELD Troy, Pa. Orchestra; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A.; Outdoor Club; Dramatic Club; Athletic Club. Happy-go-lucky Laura. Likes good times, danc- ing, all kinds of athletics and well — her chief inter- est is not here. Nothing is serious enough to de- press her spirits for more than a few minutes; always rushing at the rate of 2:40, and her tongue keeping up with her heels. She craves romance and declares that excitement is more sustaining than a well-balanced meal. IRENE CARMAN Towanda, Pa. Athletic Club; Art Club; Y. W. C. A. Everyone knows Irene. Her cheerful laugh can be heard on third floor any time. It is not necessary to tell her host of friends that she is the life of any crowd for they know it only too well. Irene is a true friend especially to those in need. She has been a successful teacher in the training school, yet it is quite evident that she will not follow the teach- ing profession very long. CECILIA CAREY Middletown. N. Y. Glee Club; Hiking Club; Dramatic Club. Ceil is quiet, but her serious look is a camou- flage for the laughter and fun underneath. She is little- -which carries out the statement that good things come in little packages. And to top it off, she is an adorable chum and a sincere friend. Do you wonder that all the boys in South Hall are singing, Oh, Cecilia, say that you ' ll be mine . And the girls join in on the chorus. Pitgt ' Twfnl - fren MACK CHAFFEE Pottersville, Pa. Mack Y. M. C. A. Mack is one of our many live wires; wherever something is doing he is always there with a helping hand. A good fellow, full of fun, and always ready for a good time. When it comes to studying, Mack ' s very ambitious (?). and as a lover of violin music, his first choice would be a Drum Solo . Sometimes we think Mack made a mistake by not going to a medical college, but his success as a pedagogue is certain and we wish him all kinds of luck. LAURA CHAPMAN Genesee, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club; Outdoor Club; Glee Club. In the fall of 1924, a dark curly haired lass, the possessor of two dreamy blue eyes and a winning smile, stepped into our midst and became one of us. Amiable, generous, a good dancer, and a gift of making many friends. This is only a part of Laura. She has interests ether than at Mansfield, many week-ends being spent at home ot at Wellsville. May the best of life attend you, Laura. MARY CHRISTENSEN Bethlehem, Pa. Y. W. C. A., Art Club. Studious, artistic, and ambitious is Mary. But this is not all. She is a fine sport and always ready for a good time, especially after ten o ' clock. She is very fond of midnight, ghostly walks up and down corridors. We expert Mary to be as successful next year in her teaching as she has been in the Training Scho 1. AGNES CLEARY Mahanoy City, Fa. Art Club; Athletic Club. Mansfield would not be Mansfield without Agnes. Her merry smile and twinkling eyes help to make dark days bright and pleasant. At times, however, Agnes is very serious, especially when teaching in the Training School, where she disciplines her prodigies with perfection. Her home is quite a distance, but we should feel honored — and do — that Agnes chose Mansfield for her Alma Mater. The best of luck to one who has all the earmarks of a successful teacher. ftifU Twftily right MABEL COCHRAN Fall Creek, Pa. Glee Club; Rurban Club; Mansfield Masquers; Athletic Club. A newcomer here, with brown eyes, brown hair, and a winning smile, Fond of her books and yet she does not study all the while; Glee club and choir, gym social, too; and wherever there is work to do. In basketball, hockey, and clubs she does her part. But in teaching she likes most to show her art. ELIZABETH COONS Canton, Pa. Betty Glee Club; Y. W. C. A. The road to Canton beckons me, The road to all that ' s best; The home road where I weekly see The castle of my lest. Thus quctes Elizabeth and leaves for fairer regions, returning- with a happier smile and news of home. A rare combination of fun and seriousness is Elizabeth. Her fun-loving disposition is at its best in Pulos ' as she says, A Mexican Sundae for- me. She is a true friend and a staunch Cantonian. RUTH COON Ransom. Pa. Coonie Art Club; Outdoor Club; Y .W. C. A. Although she seems quiet and dignified any of her friends will tell you a different story. Ruth is a very busy girl. She studies, practices, and attends Y. W. C. A. cabinet meetings conscientiously. She is also a happy girl when the U. S. Mail brings her the Princeton Tiger. Great feelings hath she of her own Which other souls may never know. MARIE COVVLES Orwell, Pa. Marie was one of our late arrivals, but her cheery smile and winning personality have won a perman- ent place in our hearts. It didn ' t take us long to find out that she is fond of music and teaching. She loves to have something to giggle about and is always ready to laugh at anything humorous. Although she lives downtown she still has time for fun and good times. Here ' s success to you, Marie. Pa e TicenlY-nine GLADYS CRANMER New Albany, Pa. Glad Emersonion Society; Y. W. C. A. Gladys, true to her nickname, is always glad and looks on the bright side of life. This little girl came to us this year from another school. She is very industrious and succeeds in everything she undertakes. Gladys rooms on the third floor, but she likes to spend the week-end with her fifth floor hospital friends. We sometimes wonder why she says, I want to go home . Good luck to you, Gladys, in your teaching career. INEZ CREQUE Towanda, Pa. Athenaean Literary Society; Glee Club; Hiking- Club; Y. W. C. A. Inez hails from Towanda, but that is nothing against her. If Towanda has any more of them, we say send them over! If you have the blues, just call on Inez, she never fails to drive them away. Some day we expect to hear that she is a great Palmer penmanship expert. Practice makes per- fect, Inez. Although Inez has been with us only this year, we find in her a worthwhile friend. BERTHA CRISMAN Factoryville, Pa. Bird President of the Student Council; Y. W. C. A.; Athletic Club; Varsity Basketball (Captain). Who in M. S. N. S. likes Bird ? I do; you do; everybody does. Why? Because she ' s just the same sweet girl every time you see her or talk with her; she wins honor for the school by starring in basket- ball; she never squelches us unless we need it; she joins in all our fun and frolic. Hurrah for Bird! VELMA CURTIS Mansfield. Pa. Glee Club. Did you ever see Velma dance? Well envy her at the gym dances for she is o.ie of our most popu- lar girls. She can rag the piano until your feet itch to dance. She sings, but generally sings Irish songs — we wonder why? Velma is very tiny, lovable and good natured, therefore during her two years at M. S. N S. she has made many life- long friends. Velma has lots cf pep, so we are sure - he will make good in whatever she chooses to do. Page I hi 1 1 GERTRUDE CUSTER Lancaster, Pa. Gertie Mansfield Masquers; Y. W. C. A.; Athenaean So- ciety. Space does not allow us to say all the nice things we would like to say about Gertie . Her happiness depends on helpfulness as health depends on air and food. She is intent on ministration, always looking for opportunities to be of service to others. She finds the dullest places interesting. She lives in an environment of happiness surrounded by those whom she has helped to make happy. By her good qualities she has endeared herself to all her classmates, and is prominent in many social activities. DOROTHY DANFORTH Shinglehouse, Pa. Dot Dramatic Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. One glance at Dot ' s laughing blue eyes and you are a victim. Everywhere she goes she wins scores of friends. If you ask her what she likes best in life she will promptly reply, Fun, and letters from Galeton . Dot is a jolly girl, always ready for a good time. With all of her ability as a teacher, we do not think she will ever go on the pension list. MARGARET DA VIES Blossburg, Pa. Outdoor Club. Peg Peg is the smallest of the Blossburg Blonds , dainty, graceful, and full of fun. She is always ready to lend a helping hand — especially in love affairs. Peg is inclined to be very studious during the week, but she works with the thought of going home for the week-end. Why? Like Postum, There ' s a Reason. Those who know her well can easily guess, because — Peg thinks a lot of us all. ADELINE DAVIS Scranton, Pa. Quiet and dignified, did you say? Yes, but ap- pearances sometimes deceive. In the presence of her intimates she is always full of fun and ready for a good time. Adeline says she is going to teach five years at. least, but we wonder . We are afraid that the at- traction in State College may prove fatal to this resolution. Here ' s all good wishes, Adeline! Page Thirty-one LENA DAVIS Westfield, Pa. Davis or Skinny Athletic Club; Varsity Basketball; Y. W. C. A. Westfield sent us a fine basketball player when Lena came to M. S. N. S. Her prowess along athletic lines is acknowledged by all. But she can do other things besides. Her experience in the Training School was extremely successful. If you don ' t believe it ask Mr. Retan. Here ' s to a mighty good sport, a loyal friend, a girl dependable in all things and ways. Taylor, Pa. Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Rurban MELVILLE DAVIS Editor Carontawan; Club. Mel has had one of the biggest jobs about the school and he sure has put it across big . His ability as an editor can be seen as one turns the pages of this book. Mel is a quiet, reserved chap, and is well liked by everyone. He claims that silence is his best partner; we ' ll probably have to hand it to him on this score. Melville is very studious and there is no doubt that he accomplishes results. Without a doubt he will be a credit to the teaching profession. We wish yo:] all kinds of success. EDITH DECKER Taylor, Pa. Edith is noted for her witty sayings and quiet replies to all remarks. Her friends say ;hat her favorite song is Oh! Charley My Boy! Never mind, we all like you and your candy. ELIZABETH DESIDERIO Forty Fort, 1 ' a. Betty Dez Emersonian Literary Scciety; Y. W. C. A. If you ever chance to meet a little girl, smiling- and happy, and humming a merry tune, you may be sure that it ' s Betty Dez. There are lots of Bettys, but only one Betty Dez. Betty is quiet? especially on week-ends and :s always ready for fun bananas and ice cream. Her friendly smile, good nature and good sportsmanship ha e won for her many friends. Here ' s to Betty and to her characteristic expression, Holy Mack . I ' llfil ' Tl il l ll n ANNE M. DOUGHERTY Kingston, Pa. Orchestra; Rurban Club; Mansfield Masquers. If you happen to hear the exquisite strains of Ave Maria coming from Room 524, and glance in, you will see this young musician smiling sweetly over her violin. It ' s a familiar pose! Or, when it ' s a letter from Notre Dame , she will probably be dancing plus the smile Smiles, music, and love. No hurry, no worry, scraping heels swinging arms, a true desire for friends and peace. A true daughter of Pan . Now you have met our Anne. CHARLES DOVE Plains, Pa. Charley Dovey This is one of Plains ' productions which came to us in ' 24, one of the anthracite coal region boys. Charley does not particularly care for sccial events. He shines in doing Art. Being a good mixer, he has gained for himself many friends, but he is sweet on so many of the gentler sex that it is hard for him to make a choice. Best luck to ycu, Charley. MARGUERITE DUNBAR Granville Summit, Pa. Peggy Hiking Club; Rurban Club; Y. W. C. A. One glance at Peggy ' s laughing brown eyes and you are a victim. Everywhere she goes she wins scores of friends. If you ask her what she likes best in life she will promptly reply, Going home week-ends. Marguerite is a jolly girl, always ready for a good time, especially if eats are mentioned. We hope she will be successful as a teacher as she has been during her two years at M. S. N. S. MARY ROBERTA EDWARDS Kingston, Pa. Red Petite, charming- and a born coquette is Red . She is a magnet that attracts, then gives you a shock with her singular temper. Singular, because it reminds you of a sun shower — it lasts a short time. That smile when she receives Fred ' s missive. Now the secret is out — we know that Red has no intentions of becoming a school marm . Puge Thirty-three FLORENCE EIFFERT Milan, Pa. Florence is another of our down town girls, and though she has been with us only a year, she has shown herself a good student and a capable teacher. A conscientious worker, she never leaves anything until it is well done — except perhaps to go home. With her love for children and teaching in general we are sure that she will progress wherever she goes. Liberty, Pa. FRANCES FORER Y. W. C. A.; Art Club. Loval True Steadfast Earnest Crnscientious Cheerful Kind Diligent That ' s Frances MRS. FRANCES FOSTER Troy, Pa. Glee Club. Of manners quiet — affections mild. Frances has many friends in M. S. N. S.. although she lives downtown. One might think ' at first that Frances is very quiet, but she ' s a jolly companion and a friend worth having. Her untiring efforts in her school work will win her reward in the neat- future. Here ' s success to you. AGNES FRANZ Shinglehouse. Pa. Agony Hiking Club. She can fool some of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time. When in public our Agony seems to be one of those Lashfu! misses. Third floor alley knows that appearances are deceitful in this case however, for Agony has the jolliest collection of giggles known, some of which she distributes behind the scenes. At neces- sary intervals she studies, interspersing her labors with, Say, now; you girls keep still. Page Thirty-jour VIOLA GAVETTE Athens, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Athletic Club. Viola is noted for her wonderful disposition. She is a happy-go-lucky sort, but will be on the spot when you need help, or someone to sympathize with you. She is pretty, witty, and full of fun. We con- sider it a great privilege to know her. Her practice teaching has been a marked success and we know she will be a star in her chosen profession. MARION GREENE Rome, Pa. Pudge Athenaean Literary Society; Hiking Club; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A. Our Pudge needs no introduction, she is one of the jolliest and best loved girls in North Hall. Whenever you hear a good deal of talking, follow the sound and it ' s sure to lead you to 419, the dwell- ing place of Pudge Greene. You can never hurt her feelings by telling her she talks too much, be- cause she doesn ' t know how to get cross. Pudge is the typical modern girl, always full of pep, fun and dancing. GLADYS GRIFFITH Pine City, N. Y. Art Club; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A. Gladys is one of those quiet, sweet girls, about whom we hear very little, yet underneath it all we see a secret. She is very studious, but sure knows hew to enjoy a good time. She is noted for her pleasant smile and oh! those pretty eyes! We feel that there is a bright future in store for her, and we wish her the best of luck. MYRTLE GRUVER Roaring Branch, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Here ' s our brown-eyed Myrtle. She has a way which makes one think she is quiet, but still water runs deep. Her wit and congeniality have won her many friends. She always looks for the bright side of life and usually succeeds in finding it. She is a good student and we all wish her success in her future work. T hi Iv fire KATHRYN HALLEN Lawrenceville, Pa. Katie or Kato Katie, five foot none, beautiful large brown eyes, heaps of heavy dark bobbed hair, and a sunny dis- position, this will help you to visualize our Kathryn. Kathryn hails from Lawrenceville, but we don ' t hold that against her. She loves good times and is especially fond of Bloss dances (?). She has other interests, some pertaining to the medical profession. JENNIE HAMMOND Wellsboro, Pa. Jen Y. W. C. A.; Outdoor Club; Glee Club. Jennie is shy and modest to a casual observer. Oh, my yes! But lurking beneath there is a spirit of fun and humor that shows itself at every oppor- tunity. Jen is square to everybody: she is always willing to oblige a friend. No one ever thinks of worrying about her success, we know . ' -.he ' ll be at the top. DOROTHY HARDY Hop Bottom. Pa. Dot Rurban Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Dot studies hard, but like the rest of the fourth floor, she never misses anything- that is going en in the social life of the school, and mention eats, she ' s right there. Dot doesn ' t say much but we fear she thinks a lot about red hair and Ford cars. MARY HART Kingston, Pa. Rurban Club; Mansfield Masquers; Glee Club. Is the mail up? questions the girl with black hair, laughing blue eyes, and pearly teeth. (Irish characteristics, 111 say.) Mail from Odessa or Plains brings a twinkle to the eyes — other letters will do, of course. If she sails up to her room and emerges to smile all day — well, she received the letter. Don ' t get the idea that she ' s frivilous. No! just true and very censcientious. She has dancing feet, plus a clear brain, and she has plenty of time for her affairs of Hart . Page Thirty • ANDREW HASTINGS Olyphant, Pa. ' Hess Oh, yes, his name is Hastings, but you don ' t need to remember it, for the only cognomen he has ever been known by is Hess . An impressing figure ? An influential person ? You ' ve said it! When pleas are called for Hess is always the ambassador, for his gift of argumenta- tion is an outstanding quality. Hess excels in many things — as a Terpischorean he is in demand and as a teacher we know he must be a super . MARIE HAYES Taylor, Pa. Hiking Club; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Dark haired, dark eyed, and little is Marie. Her eyes denote the permanent home of mischief. If good times are going on, roll call will find Marie near the head of the list. Nevertheless, she finds time for her favorite pastime which is reading. Marie ' s enthusiasm and pep have many oppor- tunities to assert themselves as Bob participates in almost every athletic event. Nor does she ever lack an escort to any social event, for Rob is always on hand. MARY HOY State College, Pa. Little, but oh, my! Mary is gcod natured and has a happy smile for everyone. Her friends say she is the best thing ever. She is reported to be a dandv teacher and one who will forge ahead in her teaching career. JOHN HENDERSHOT Luzerne, Pa. Y. M. C. A. President; Junior Class President; Rurban Club; Glee Club; Dramatic Club; Ambulance Company. Here is one of the most vivacious chaps about the school. John is in evei ' ything and everywhere, all at the same time, and things just hum when he ' s around. His interests are not entirely self-sur- rounding. He takes an active part in organizations, helping them to attain higher goals Jack has proved a very efficient president for the Y. M. C. A He is a good student, and also knows how to take care of himself. Jack, we don ' t doubt your success for one minute, but here ' s lots to take along. Page 77i 7y-scr ELIZABETH HOAG Bellefonte, Pa. Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Betty, one of the two delegates from Bellefonte, is a true daughter of the town from whence she comes. It is unfortunate fcr her that M. S. N. S. is so far away that she cannot go home more often for the week-end for we know there is a far greater attraction there than here. From the selfish view of the subject, it is bettor for us that she remain here where we can enjoy her true friendship. CARRIE HOLTON Mansfield, Pa. Glee Club. Carrie (Mrs. Damon Holton) is a perfect genius. She can manage a man, preside in a most stately manner over a home, and be an all-round Normalite at the same time. Though she lives down town and devotes every spare minute concocting attractive dishes with which to satisfy Damon ' s appetite, she always lias time for her friends on the hill. ELSIE HORN Nordmont, Pa. Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. One might think at first that Elsie is quiet and reserved but she really is full of fun when one learns to know her. Her quiet, pleasant manner wins her way to the hearts of her manv friends. She is not only a good chum and an interesting com- panion, but is also a very conscientious student, always making it her policy to work first and then play. The best cf wishes to you, Elsie, in your teaching career and in life. JULIA HOTCHKISS Lawrenceville, Pa. Judy Outdoor Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. An odd mixture of seriousness and fun is this fair miss. She presents a personality where in is apportioned agieeably, with and a strain of whole- some deviltry. Julia is not at all a supporter of that old adage, variety is the spice of life, as she is quite convinced that there is only one in the world. We shall always remember Judy as pret ' y, popular, and a wonderful pal to whom we now wish success. I ' , I-, I hirt) i ighi ELIZABETH HOWE Osceola, Pa. Betty A willing heart and a helping hand; always ready on demand. That ' s Elizabeth every time — always ready to help a friend. Elizabeth has been with us for only a year, but she has proven her worth in many ways. We some- times think that she will take up the study of Astrology — especially the study of Stars . Here ' s wishing the best of luck to you in Porto Rico next year. ESTHER HOWE Gold, Pa. Esther is a very quiet maid with curly hair. She is very friendly, even if some think she is quiet and bashful. But wait until those blue eyes snap when she is shaking up those little ones; if we could only see her then we should change our opinions. Esther will surely brighten the days for someone with her cheerful smile. We knew you will make a success of whatever you undertake and we wish you good luck. MILDRED HOWER Scranton, Pa. Mitzi Y. W. C.A. This seemingly quiet little maiden comes from Scranton. Once you know her you find she is viva- cious and full of fun. She has a way with little children which many teachers envy. Mildred is a very conseientu us worker and always likes to have her work prepared, nevertheless she often finds time to stop in the Reception Room on social eve- nings. We expect great success for her in the teach- ing profession. . v INEZ HULSLANDER Covington, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Inez hails from Covington. She seems quiet in the classroom, but those who know her will agree that she is fun-loving and ever ready for a good time. Just ask her about hot potatoes or talking over the telephone. We don ' t believe that she will stay very long in the teaching profession as she is so fond of her Scarf e . Page Thirty-nine KATHERINE INGERSOLL Nelson, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Emersonian Literary Society. Another summer school fan who came to us for her practice teaching ' . Katherine is a studious work- er who never allows pleasure to interfere with duty. She goes home often over the week-end and we hear that she is very fond of red hair. We wonder why. Ste — _ i A fh PAULINE INNES Canton. Pa. Palene Art Club; Y. W. C. A. For every evil under the sun, Pauline has a remedy, or there is none. Yes, that is Pauline. Her carefree disposition is one to be envied by all. Is she full of fun? Just ask someone who has encountered her playful pranks. Hurried footsteps — a door opens — a rush of air. Ah, there ' s Pauline. Another rush the door closes — Pauline has gone. Yes! we all love Pauline! DORIS JACKSON Elmira, N. Y. Doris is a newcomer to our ranks this year, hav- ing transferred from Cortland Normal. Though we are surprised she didn ' t go nearer Boston, no one regrets her choice as she is a mighty sweet girl and we are proud to have her among us. She is a good sport and has made many friends here this year. Her favorite expression is: I took you by surprise that time. ANNE JALDOSKI Nantieoke, Pa. Anner Athletic Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Tiny, curly headed, cute and sweet, She likes to dance and she loves to eat; She eagerly awaits all State College mail, And answers immediately without fail. Page lurry ANNA JAY Scranton, Pa. Hiking Club; Art Club. Anna ' s meek, Anna ' s sweet, Anna ' s modest and discreet, Anna ' s rare, Anna ' s fair, Anna ' s every way complete. There ' s more to be said. Anna is kind, generous, willing and sympathetic. She has a very clever adroitness with children and a very keen inter- est in Manford — athletics. MARGARET JENKINS Blossburg, Pa. Peg We have two ways of telling when Peg is around; one is by getting a glimpse of a mass af golden curls and the other is the sound of her car. Every one knows Peg because of her winning smile and gcod nature, but if you want to change that good nature ask her where she got her last permanent. Never mind, Peg, we love you just the same. May success and good luck be yours in the future. MABELLE JENNINGS Scranton, Pa. Art Club; Hiking Club; President of Athletic Club; Manager Basketball Team. To the accompaniment of Mabelle ' s own mandolin we could sing, Who ' s that rushing down the hall , for speedy is my lady, and the name Mabelle spells efficiency to those who know her. Her enthusiasm is not wanting, her heart and soul go into every- thing she undertakes. A sportswoman in the true sense of the word, excelled by very few. As a scholar, a teacher, a pal. she will long be remember- ed by her large coterie of friends. IRMA K. JOHNSTON East Homer, N. Y. Outdoor Club; Art Club. East Homer has sent us a good type for ambition, lrma is an industrious, studious individual who always has her work in on time. If she doesn ' t like something, she tells us immediately, and, strange to say, we like her all the more for her frankness. She may seem rather dignified to a casual ob- server, but the occasional twinkle in her eye reveals to us that she loves a good time. Page Forty -one DOLORES JONES Taylor, Pa. Art Club; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet. Who ' s that coming down the hall? Brown eyes, brown hair, straight and tall? Dolores! Who ' s the girl with the sunny smile ? The one we ' ve found a friend worthwhile? Dolores! It has been said, There ' s a little bit of bad in every good little girl , so it is with Dolores. Her jolly and courageous spirit reveals to us a girl much to be desired as a real friend and companion. . _ ' H r r A ■_ ' - ' ' -, B v l ELIZABETH JONES Ogdensburg, Pa. Betty Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Elizabeth, they say is quiet and dignified . Yes, but ask the girls on fourth if Betty isn ' t always ready for a good time. She is a conscientious and ambitious student, placing work before play and it is to Betty we go with all our troubles. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Knowing her steadfast character we wish her every success in life. ETHYL JONES Peaches Wyoming, Pa. Mansfield Masquers; Glee Club; Hiking Club. The saying is that good things come in small packages and I am very sure of it since I have met Peaches . Is she clever, too? Well, just Hsten to some of her philosophies, read her writings, take notice of her drawings, and last, but not least, hear her talk about Huber. The kiddies in the Training School love her and we know she w. ' ll become a successful teacher if she chooses to follow the profession. STANLEY KANIA Dickson City, Pa. Glee Club; Emersonian Society; Gospel Team. Stanley often shews is ability as an organist at our movies. How can we expect anything but artistic ability when two-thirds of his time is spent practicing at the organ. Though he is frank in his sayings and set in his ways, we know he will find success in the teaching world. Page Forty in RUTH KEENE Mansfield, Pa. Ruth is a very conscientious student. She always does her work thoroughly and well. She is one of those quiet people who say little, but think a lot. In short, we feel that any school board might be proud to acquire a teacher like Ruth. Our best wishes go with her. ROBERT KELLERMAN Taylor, Pa. Bob Student Council ' 25, President ' 26; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Gospel Team, ' 25, ' 26; Mansfield Masquers; Varsity Football and Basketball ' 25, ' 26; Treasurer of Senior Class; M Club. Hail to one of Mansfield ' s warriors, a true man in evei ' y respect. Hs influence has been felt in the spiritual realm and on the athletic field. Real sportsmanship is exemplified in our coming expon- ent of the spiritual art. That which he undertakes to do is certain to move because of his tenacity and thoroughness. MARGUERITE KIESS Athens, Pa. President Hiking Club; Athletic Club; Captain Basketball Team, ' 25. Kiessy Jet black hair, brown eyes with mischief popping out of them, full of pep, a whiz on the basketball court, at home on the dancing floor, yet very digni lied when she is teaching — that ' s Kiessy. A discourse on the home town is one of her pel subjects. In fact, if Athens were left for Kiessj ' to boost, it would soar among the clouds. CRESGENCE KING Knoxville. Pa. Glee Club; Athenaean Literary Society; Orchestra; Outdoor Club. Another one of the Cowanesque Valley bunch, and one of its prettiest, liveliest members. Tall, grace- ful, sweet, you wouldn ' t believe that her favorite vegetable is the Murphy . Now would you? l!ul it is true. Ask anyone from home . Fuse Forty-three DEBBIE KNOLLES Wyalusing, Pa. Rurban Club. Debbie came to join our happy throng from the far-off town of Wyalusing. She is fun-loving and good-natured. Ask her room-mate why Debbie always runs to meet the mailman. There ' s mystery about it. She may not be spoiled, but she always gets everything she wants, even if she has to fall on the ice for it. Debbie studies very hard, but music is her hobby. We know she will be a fine teacher. REBECCA KULP Trucksville, Pa. Becky Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. She ' s so little — but that ' s the least rf her! Jolly, good spirits, rippling and rare; She lives to be happy; has no use for care, Ambition, never lacking, A sweet face to give her backing. She ' ll win in all she ever undertakes. Such a pal for any party. With participation hearty. Friendships are the easiest things she makes. VERA LaFRANCE Laceyville, Pa. Ve Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club. Vera says she can ' t laugh, but occasionally you hear a quiet chuckle from her, testifying that she has a sense of humor, even though it be concealed under a quiet exterior. Those who know Ve best can perhaps solve this riddle — Why is ' Ve ' like .1 hell? (Hint: the answer is connected with Clappers .) IRENE LANDON Canton, Pa. Irene is a quiet lady, with straight dark bobbed hair, she lives down town. She always has her lessons well prepared and on time. We do not know her very well, but we hope that she will become a successful teacher. Page Forty-jour MARY LAWLER Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Athletic Club; Hiking Club; Hockey. Allow me to introduce our dancer, swimmer and everybody ' s girl. You should see her head shake and her brown eyes twinkle when the music starts or when she ' s ready for a dive or best of all, when there ' s a letter from a man at a University — oh! anyone will do — Bucknell, Notre Dame, U. of P., or Lehigh. But — when you speak of Wellsboro, every frivolous thing fades and she ' s a serious girl ready to make Tea for Two. FRANCES LEONARD Blossburg, Pa. This tall, light haired lassie has come down every day to be with us, during these last two years. Frances surely knows how to be very dignified in t he Training School and classroom, but elsewhere — oh, the difference. When it comes to dancing she is right there every minute. HAZEL LEWIS Big Flats, N. Y. Mansfield Masquers. We meet her on the campus, We meet her in the hall; But when we meet her in our classes, We admire her most of all, This little maiden is one of our down town stu- dents, whose home is at Big Flats. A kind heart and agreeable ways have won for her many friends. She is a blond, with grey eyes and wavy hair, and possesses a studious nature that betokens future success for her. ELIZABETH LOUGHNEY Pittston, Pa. Libby Athletic Club, Hiking Club, Emersonian Society. Libby is a brunette, She belongs to the Pittston Quintette; She likes a good time, Hails from the Irish clime; Skating, dancing, she hangs-on Until the fun is done. She ' ll have many escapades To tell in future days, It ' s lots of fun When it is all done: School Life, I mean, and it ' s ways. Page Forty-five BETHEL LOVELESS Tioga, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Art Club President. Not to know me argues yourselves unknown. But, who doesn ' t know you, Betty? Surely we have all heard your giggle, especially after a joke has been played on someone. However, that ' s no faulty characteristic, laughing , for as you know the old saying is, laugh and the world laughs with you. But what ' s this we hear about your liking to meditate on and to ponder over Clark ' s Expedi- tions . Surely you are worthy of Merit . HARRIET LOVELESS Tioga, Pa. Art Club; Y. W. C. A. To be with Harriet is a joy. Her merry smile, shining eyes, happy disposition, and unselfish man- ner has won her many friends. One of her special- ties is making pie-beds . The seriousness with which she clothes herself, af er the mischief has been discovered, always drives suspicion in the op- posite direction (?). Although Harriet is alwavs ready for fun, she never neglects her duties. Her going home almost every week-end makes us ap- preciate her all the more when she stays here. Knowing her as she is we predict great success as a pedagogue. ANNA LOWERY Wilkes-Barre. Pa. Anna Laurie Emersonian Literary Society. Maxwellton ' s braes are bonnie. Quiet, studious, and an all around good sport, that describes Annie . Being the possessor of these three qual- ities she has made many friends for herself at M. S. N. S. Best of luck in all your undertakings. Anna. MARY LUCAS Vandling, Pa. Luke Athletic Club; Hiking Club. Those brown eyes are something else besides good-looking, for they almost talk. When Mary came to M. S. N. S. they sure did the trick and won her many friends in both North and South Halls. Her winning smile is sure cure for the blues , and with Mary as a pal, you can be sure you have a really true friend. I ' ll r I 1 ' i it IX GUY LUDINGTON Tiadaghton, Pa. Orpheus Glee Club; Rurban Club. Guy is a quiet lad, sincere and loyal to his friends, ever mindful of his own business and always will- ing ' to lend a helping- hand to the distressed. In his studies he is very diligent, always up-to-date and at his best. To his classmates, when they are in doubt as to an assignment, he is a valuable clarifier and expositor. His predominating hobby is studying — Social affairs and girls ? ? ? ? — . However, the girls have an eye on you Guy, Beware!!!! Guy came to M. S. N. S. with an exuberant am- bition to become a teacher; a teacher who will be of service to his fellow citizens. Guy, here ' s luck from the class of 1926. KARL LUNGER Athens, Pa. Vice President Emersonian Literary Society; Rurban Club; Gospel Team; Glee Club; Band; Orchestra. Earl, the jocular and natural fun maker at M. S. N. S. will never be forgotten among our list of acquaintances. This is not all for if you will but notice the organizations to which he belongs, you will observe that he has music blood in his veins. He is an artist on the clarinet and his singing is a great help to the Bassos in the Glee Club. His odd, yet intricate dance steps are also a source of envy to many fellows. AUDRIELLE LYNCH Athens, Pa. Lynchie Orchestra; Band; Athletic Club; Carontawan Board. Here ' s our proctor. Quiet — oh my, yes! As quiet as anyone can be with a sax . Gee, can ' t she tease that pipe of her ' s though ? We ' ll say. Her descrip- tive record would run thus — tall, dark and straight, with pretty eyes. But, gracious what a shock they sometimes can give you! Audrielle, with her ability in penmanship, would be an asset to the trade of any printer. MARY MacBLAlNE Morris Run, Pa. Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. So Mary is here from Morris Run, A mighty good kid, chuck full of fun; She is loving, quiet, and sweet; For a friend, in North Hall, she can ' t be beat.

Your just wonderful; just wonderful to me. I know not how you seem to be To others in the world. Thus say her close friends concerning Dot. They add that she is good-hearted and good natured. Dorothy liked Nature Study best, part are the birds, and the especial bird is the Robin . PHYLLIS MANCHESTER Potterville, Pa. Phyllis came to Mansfield for the first time in 1923. Owing to the fact that she graduated from a three year high school, it was necessary for her to take high school subjects to make the required number for entrance. In the summer of 1924. faces were cheered again by her presence. Now, once more, she is with us, but this time to receive the long- looked for diploma and go out into this great world for service. KATHRYN MANDEVILLE Canton, Pa. Katrina Kithern Art Club; Y. W. C. A. We all admire Kathryn in classes, but we ' ve heard it said that she ' s not always as serious as we see her. She is always ready for a good time and always willing to help anyone. Now actually , her favorite occupations are eat- ing and sleeping, that is, with the exception of writing those dearly beloved lesson plans. When it comes to Geography, her favorite state is Massa- chusetts. Good luck to you Kathryn. We know you ' ll make a successful teacher. LUCILLE MANLEY Nelson, Pa. Glee Club, Rurban Club; Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Lucille is one of the fair lassies that room on third floor. To see her walk arcund the halls we think her to be quite dignified, but to those who know her, she is just as full of fun as the jol liest. She is always ready for a good time and her studies do not interfere with her education. She is quiet and sweet — not like a Quaker, Much of her talk is about a Baker ; Whether she is hungry, or just likes the name That we will leave for her to explain. Page Tnrty eifihl ELEANOR MEIER Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Hiking Club; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet. Are you looking for a rare disposition ? If so, you have found it in Eleanor. When help is needed or required she always does her share willingly and untiringly. One of her chief interests is watching the mail box wherein appear many letters with the Lehigh seal. Although the answering of these letters de- mands much of her attention, she is always on hand when fun begins and stays throughout the time it lasts. GRACE McGUIRE Forest City, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Grace is always busy, whether doing her lessons or her fancy work. Are all your beautiful things for your hope chest, Grace? Upon competion of her studies, at Mansfield, we think that Grace will settle down in Wyoming, Pa. Grace is a jolly, good sport; always smiling, but never so happy as when she receives a letter from Billy . Best wishes for joy, success and happiness. ALICE McHALE Pittston, Pa. Al Athletic Club; Varsity Basketball, Senior Hockey Team; Emersonian Literary Society. Here ' s to the droll Irish leader of the Pittston Gang. She reminds us cf the quotation. A little fun now and then. Is relished by the best of men. This fun may be a dance at Tioga, a skating party at Rocky Glen, or teasing the rest of the Pittston Gang. Al is a gocd fo rtune teller, and we know Dame Fortune will treat her well be- cause she helps treat herself. VERA McLAUI) Laceyville, Pa. Ve Mickie Hiking Club; Rurban Club; Y. W. C. A. Vera is a little black-haired girl, always ready for a good time. That ' s not saying she doesn ' t have lid- lessons even though she thinks she is turrible .

Page Forty-nine INA MERITHEW Ine Athens, Pa. Dramatic Club; Band. Ever laughing, a way she had; always happy, seldom sad. Did you ever see Ina working? Play, then work, is her motto. But there is one thing she especially likes to do — study nature, Birds in particular! Ina is very fond of teaching, and we ' re sure she will make a success — but, Ina, stick to your profes- sion. fell SARA MICHAEL South Gibson, Pa. Sara Ann Ladies ' Quartet; Glee Club; Rurban Club. It may well be said that last year Sara hid her light under a bushel, for few of us ever had the privilege of enjoying her exceptionally sweet voice. As the old saying goes, You can ' t keep a good man down, neither could Sara keep her secret forever. Her voice has been discovered and she adds much to our Glee Club and Quartette. Sara has a pleasant disposition, and all who know her are benefited by her big heartedness. ELIZABETH MILLER Betty Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny, Heavens above. Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny, how you can love. Betty is one of our late arrivals, and since she lives down town, we see little of her. Here ' s suc- cess in the future, for Betty . SARA MILLER Ariel, Pa. Sal Sally Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Now Sal is just the kind of a girl tha ' we can ' t forget. At least one can ' t, for the mail brings her three or four letters a week from that one . Sal is a good sport and no good times get by her. I don ' t think anyone likes to laugh or talk any bet- ter than she. But don ' t forget she can be serious. I ' m Mire many of us will be singing or saying: I wonder what ' s become of Sally? Then we ' ll find out she is successfully teaching school in some cily. Page Fifty MRS. GRACE MYERS Montgomery, Pa. Mrs. Myer ' s is cne of this year ' s arrivals and from all reports is a mighty fine addition to our class. We asked some one about her and the reply was that the person knew nothing but good con- cerning her. Studious to the extreme, with les- sons always prepared, pleasant to meet, Mrs. Myers will succeed in her chosen work. RHEA NEWTON White Haven, Pa. Rea Orchestra; Cecilian Glee Club; Carontawan Board; Art Club; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Old M. S. N. S. can well be proud that Rea chose it for her Alma Mater, for she is not only a. good student, but also a mighty good sport. It ' s very seldom we find one who excels in so many dif- ferent abilities as art, music, athletics, along with a vigorous personality which make the finest type of teacher. The Art Club and Athletic Club as well as the many other clubs to which she belongs have indeed been ' benefited by her initiative, resourcefulness, and willing co-operation. LELAH O ' DELL Mansfield, Pa. ' Let She is truly Mansfield, for has she not been with us as youngster in the Training School, as well as teacher ? Conscientiousness applies to her for none of the angry elements as rain or snow prevent her daily walk of two miles to and fro. A good sport always, nothing too hard for her to undertake — which makes her one we like to have around. MARGARET T. O ' DONNELL Genesee, Pa. Emersonian Society; Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club. Peg , a blue-eyed daughter of Erin, always ready with her bit of Irish laughter . The blues just naturally fly when Peggy comes. A good student, but always ready for a good time. She has many fiiends, of both sexes. Her one fault is absentmindedness, when Gerry ' s letters are de- layed. Best of luck to you and may you always be as happy as you were at M. S. N. S. Page Fiffv-one ALBERTA O ' HAIRB Pittston, Pa. Athletic Club; Hiking- Club; Emersonian Literary Society.

Her hair is black and curly, Her teeth white and pearly; She ' s neither too thin nor too fat. And say, you should hear her chat, She belongs to that Pittstcn crowd V here noise and fun is aloud. We ' ll say she ' s classy, this Irish lassie, Here ' s to Alberta — and her crowd. RUTH OLLENDIKE Dickson City, Pa. Athletic Club. When work and duty with Ruthie Clash, Duty always goes to smash. Thus said the Carontawan last year and from all repcrts she has not changed her tactics. Although she has taken the Kindergarten-Primary group, she has not taken it for teaching experience. Her friends say she is more interested in home and Dave. Good luck to friendly Ruth. THELMA OVERPECK Herrickville, Pa. Tommy Athletic Club; Basketball; Secretary of Dramatic Club; Y. W. C. A.; Secretary of Senior Class. Tommy is one of our third floor gigglers, and a girl w.th an enormous supply of good qualities. Don ' t say you are quiet for anyone who visits third and ' heai s you laugh knows that quiet is not exactly the right adjective. How she does play bas- ketball — never gives up. Although Tommy is fun-lovmg, she does not neglect her work and is always ready to do her share. LUCILE PALMER Mansfield, Pa. Glee Club. Witty, wise and pretty. This is Lucile. Yet this does not describe her. Have you noticed her at Gym socials? Dance? Ask any of the inhabitants of South Hall, or Kel . Lucile loves to see basket- ball games, but like Postum, there ' s a reason. She is always ready for a good time, but can also be a dignified school teacher A more true friend or more loyal companion than Lucile is hard to find. Pagt Fijly Hi o MILDRED PARKS Towanda. Pa. Dramatic Club; Y. W. C. A. A friend in need is a friend indeed. If you want a way to go to Towanda ask Mildred, she is almost sure to help you out. She is a smiling, cheerful lass and even if she dees have red hair ycu never get her angry at you. She hasn ' t been with us very long, but we like her just heaps . When we go down to borrow something, about half the time it ' s lent . Here ' s wishing you lots of success, Mildred. GERTRUDE PEASE Susquehanna, Pa. Trudie Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Brown curly hair, brown laughing eyes, there you have Gertrude. You can judge for yourself why everyone likes her and enjoys going to her rrom. Her pet hobbies are teaching 2B, and saying, I will simply pass out. ESTHER PEDRICK Nicholson, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Art Club. Esther is very studious as a visit to her room will show. When she has a thing to say, She says it! She does not stammer if or but . When her task is hard to do, She grits her teeth and sees it through! LEONE PELLOR Horseheads, N. Y. Leo Orchestra; Y. W. C. A. Leo comes from New York State, but she is a nice girl, no matter if she is not from Pennsy . She has a habit of going home every week-end — we wonder why? She studies once in a while when she ' s not laugh- ing. She plays in the orchestra and goes on trips with it. Remember that time in Blossburg, Leone ? Here ' s luck to you when ycu teach in that rural school. Page Fifty-three MARGARET PERSONS Susquehanna, Pa. Peg- Art Club; Glee Club; Athletic Club; Dramatic Club. Peg O ' My Heart came from Susquehanna. Her red hair doesn ' t indicate a thing — except a little temper. Owing to her ability for making friends, it did not take her long to find a place in the hearts of Mansfielders, especially one named Dave . Pegs interests are varied, ranging from Kinder- garten teaching to dancing. Always laughing, never sad, Just girls like this make men go mad. LETAH PHILLIPS Hop Rottom. Pa. Leet Rurban Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Lucky the hungry person that knows Leet . Pood is alwavs plentifully and generously given from Room 450 N. H. We understand that Letah is quite interested in men of the religious profession, especially Squires . Music, dancing, and social hours are her special- ties. Best of luck and good wishes to you. NELLIE PHILLIPS Hop Rottom. Pa. Phil Rurban Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Dark shining- eyes and a ready smile are what we always think when we see Phil . She seems rather quiet and dignified but when you visit Rocm 547, Oh, My! Nellie is very industrious and ambitious. If you don ' t believe it, ask her about writing lesson plans and teaching in 5B. She has won many friends in M. S. N. S. Here ' s vvishing her the best of success in her chosen pro. fession. MYRTLE PICKETT Rush, Pa. Myrtle is very industrious and spends her time, or much of it at least, at her books . She has shown us, however, that she enjoys fun and likes to he in the midst of it. I ' n ' u Fijly-jou) GLADYS PIPHER Towanda. Pa. Glad Eyes Emersonian Literary Society; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Scene: Room in North Hall. On the desk is cake, sandwiches and candy. Enter Gladys deeply absorb- ed in a Zane Grey book. But when she sees the eats even such an interesting book is forgotten. Candy, says Gladys, is my middle name. Then to enter- tain us, she recites The Bedouin Love Song. Gee, I ought to be studying for that test tomorrow, she says; but we know that it isn ' t necessary. Gladys also enjoys music and sports. Good luck, Gladys. DORIS ELIZABETH PITTS Elmira, N. Y. Art Club; Athletic Club. Doris, all who know her sing, Oh, what a girl is Doris. Doris is one of the few people blessed with wit, good locks and a sunny disposition. She is a won- der with the kiddies in the Model School. Did you say Doris is studious ? Just peep in her room any evening and you will find her doing anything but! Doris, we all like you and know you will be a big success. MARGARET PRITCHARD South Gibson, Pa. Peggy Lang Athletic Club; Dramatic Club; Rurban Club; Art Club; Y. W. C. A. If smiles were dollars, Peggy would be a mil- lionaire. Her pleasing personality and willingness to help everyone wins her scores of friends wherever she goes. She is always on hand when there is any fun going on and does she like to eat — well, I guess. Better than the eats though, she likes the familiar looking envelopes from Columbia University. Peggy is a model teacher, but we fear the profes- sion will not keep her very long. We wish the best of everything for Peggy . ALT A PRUYNE Milan, Pa. Alabam Art Club; Hiking Club; Athltic Club. Did you say gcod things come in small pack- ages? Well, if Milan has any more like Ala- bam they ' ll receive a hearty welcome wherever they go. Although quiet and reserved she is always ready for a good time, especially if eats are men- tioned. Besides her fund of wit and humor, her lov- ing disposition has reserved a place for her in the hearts of those who know her. We know that she will be a successful teacher. We ' re for you, Ala- bam. Page Fittv-five BONNIE PUGH Kingston. Pa. Glee Club; Dramatic Club; Rurban Club. Dignity, serenity, quietness and gentleness are the qualities which mark Bonnie. She is a true fol- lower of that old adage which Shakespeare believes is the test of a thoroughbred. Give every man thine ear, but few thy tongue. No one knows Bonnie ' s innermost secrets, but — oh — how often have we seen that dreamy far away look in her eyes. Behind it all lie sweet thoughts that only one can share. But whatever her future might be we sometimes think that the achievement of the Home Economics Course would not have been in vain. Do you Ollie ? Wysox, Pa. ELIZABETH QUICK Quieky Betty Y. W. C. A., Hicking Club, Athenaean Literary Society. Once a friend, always a friend; that ' s Betty. If you need help or a dress to wear to dinner go to Betty. She is always ready with either. Last year she was very anxious to go home every week, but this year there seems to be a greater attraction here. Here ' s to her success for the future, whatever it rnav be. LILLIAN RAUSCHER Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Buddy Glee Club; Dramatic Club; Art Club; Y. W. C. A Pretty? Blue eyes, light wavy hair and dimples that peep bewitchingly. Popular? Well, you must judge for yourself, but wherever Buddy is there ' s a John or a Jack . Wee kindergarteners worship, too. Proper? Buddy is just that at all times, but one expects it from so stately a lady. MARGARET REPARD Wellsboro, Pa. One thing we regret in our school life is that we don ' t know better the people who live down town. Margaret is one of this group and one of whcm we would wish to see more than we do. Good-natured, pleasant, with a happv smile for all — schoolmate at Normal or training school young- ster alike — Margaret will surely get ahead in her work when she leaves here. She has our good wishes. ' : ' - Fifty-six RACHEL RIGNEY Pennsdale, Pa. Rach Hiking Club. Rach arrived at the zero hour of her stay at Mans- field at the end cf the third semester. Please do not get excited, she was graduated then. Did we miss her ? Ill say. Rach is far too much of the sunny order of wom- ankind for a shadow of any kind to phase her — even Juvenile Literature ( ? . But — she loved the kiddies and — well, ask them. Rachel! There goes the bell for class. (Rather vaguely: Oh. — is it? I don ' t care. Maybe I ' ll get there before it ' s over. CHRISTINE ROBBINS Mansfield, Pa. ' Cris Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A.; Dramatic Club; Ath- letic Club. Jolly, fun-loving, good-natured, is Christine. Chris with the red cheeks and dark hair. Do her eyes sparkle? Oh, reader, you ' ve guessed it. Quiet? That ' s what she ' s everything but! Her cheerful laugh is never lacking where there is fun, for she ' s always there, when there ' s a good time. Nothing ever worries Chris. These qualities com- bined with ambition, brains, pluck, make her the best pal you could ever wish. NELLIE ROCKWELL Mansfield, Pa. This is Nellie, quiet and dignified, but we suspect that behind it all there is the love of fun and the spirit of mischief. She is industrious and goes about her work in a way that will take her a long- distance on the path of success. A welcome friend is Nellie. LAURA ROGERS Westfield, Pa. Art Club; Y. W. C. A. Prom Westfield I come, From Westfield come I, I ' ll remain in old Westfield, Remain ' til I die! One of the bunch which is ever true to the old home town . Always ready to give help to those in need. Indeed, she brought joy to the hearts of many Model School kiddies at Christmas time while playing the part of Santa Claus. We wonder how long Laura will teach — not very long, we fear. Page Fifty-seven VIOLA ROLKA Vi Dickson City, Pa. Hiking Club. Dark-eyed Viola is one of the most graceful girls in the school. She is known throughout the school for her ability to dance the Charleston . Remem- ber when the lights went out, Vi. If one hears I thought I ' d die or Ora bejap- ors . then Vi is in the vicinity and the fun is about to begin. GRACE RUTLEDGE Pittston, Pa. Hiking Club; Athletic Club. Speaking of tall blonds, in walks Grace to join the rest of her Pittston crowd. She usually appears serious and sensible, but this isn ' t her whole make- up. She dances plenty, Is almost twenty; Love ' s to have a party, No, she ' s not a smarty. Nary a care, where there ' s fun she ' s there; Easy to look at her face — Our tall blondy — Grace. ELLEN SCOTT New Albany, Pa. Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Still water runs deep. Eelen is quietness personified and consequently few of her classmates realize the depths of her nature. She is capable, getting along well with her work in the Training School. Seemingly Ellen thinks of little besides her work yet friends have a warm place for her. TERESA SCOTT Pittston, Pa. Scotty Athletic Club; Hiking Club; Emersonian Literary Society. Just a few odd words about this petite little member of that famous Pittston Gang . ' Nuff said! Teresa is one of the peppiest girls in North Hall. As a dancing instructress, Scotty reigns su- preme. Square dancing seems to be her special- ty???? And as for tennis dates — but never mind, Teresa, he might be small, but he knows how to arrange his tennis schedule. Page Fiji) eight DORIS SEYMOUR Penn Yan, N. Y. Rurban Club. Doris is one of our down-towners, but she knows nearly all the Normalites and calls many by name. She has a happy, smiling dispcsition, and a non- excitable nature mixed with a spirit of independence. Occasionally a spark of mischief can be seen lurk- ing around the corner of one eye and a little flame in the other which says I ' ll do this, or die. Cicero said, Let flattery, handmaid of vices, be far re- moved from friendship. This is Deris ' policy. GRACE SHARER Camptown, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Outdoor Club. A daughter of the gods, divinely tall, and most divinely fair. Quiet, demure, and studious, that ' s our Grace. She never shirks her duty. When it is work, she ' s right there, and when someone is in need, she is always ready to lend a helping hand. To those who are not intimately acquainted with her she appears dignified and reserved, but if you want to see how much fun lies beneath her quiet out- ward appearance just come to 317 some night after dinner. She is an all around girl, a good sport and a wonderful friend. FLORENCE SHELLEY Harrison Valley, Pa. Florence is a careful lady and always puts hei 1 best efforts into her lessens. She believes in indus- try rather than pleasure. One is always sure of gaining help from Florence in whatever way she can aid. for she is always willing to help people. Best of luck to you, Florence! ■ , -:,m jc r f  • ■ r ■ v , - ALICE SHOOK Watsontown, Pa. Alice joined our class this year. She hasn ' t given us much of a chance to get acquainted with her for she only remained in the dormitory with us for nine weeks, then slipped away down town. We ' re sorry we don ' t know you better. Alice is a haid and conscientious worker and well deserves to get ahead in the world. Page Fifty-nine LIDA SILL Canton, Pa. Glee Club; Outdoor Club. Lida — the girl with the Titian hair, Ha? the will to do and the soul to dare. When we see Lida coming- we feel all ' s right with the world . Her smile is cheering and her eyes are blue, just brimming over with mischief. Lida will be successful in her chosen profession as a kindergarten teacher, but we don ' t think her suc- cess will be limited to her career. That far away look in her eyes — There ' s a reason. Lowman, N. Y. ETHEL SMITH Art Club; Y. W. C. A. Does Ethel believe that Silence is golden ? Seemingly she is very quiet, but those large blue eyes will reveal a secret to you; of course, we do not know, but just ask her room-mate and her many friends. One thing we do know, Ethel is always good-natured — and willing to help if needed. She has many good qualities, some of which are attend- ing to her own business and not gossiping. Here ' s our best love and success to Ethel. THELMA SMITH Lindley, N. Y. Smithy Glee Club; Rurban Club. Tall and imposing, capable and practical, laugh- ing and joking, that ' s Smithy . She ' s a go. id friend and regular sport which may be seen by her large number of friends here. However, we won- der why her thoughts are so greatly centered in Middlebury. There must be some attraction. Any- way, we are sure that Smithy w ' ll make a great success of teaching in the next two years. Here ' s the best of luck. DOROTHY SPEAR Athens, Pa. Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A.; Glee Club; Dramatic Club. Dorothy came to us during the summer sess : on of 1922 and finished her course in January, 1926. She was always very much interested in school and social affairs. The school loses a true friend and supporter by her graduation. May her success be as plentiful as it was in Mansfield. nfjr Si i i ANNE STEVENS Ulster, Pa. Anne is one of our late arrivals. She is a down- town girl and we seldom see her except in classes. Anne is quiet and industrious, but she is always ready for fun and a good time. Here ' s success to Anne. EVELYN STONIER Scranton, Pa. Evie Treasurer, Art Club; Hiking Club. Whenever you are feeling blue, just go into Room 448. We guarantee a more pleasant state of mind after your visit. Evie can accomplish wonders both in Art (Her poster took first prize in last year ' s contest) and on the mandolin. If you doubt this, ask fourth floorites. Who helped the poor orphings at Christmas time? Whc ' s always ready for a feed? Who never fcrgets her daily Charleston? The only answer needed is: Evie. a pal to be proud of. HELEN SWETLAND Mills, Pa. Helen ' s talents are many and varied, but her piano playing is greatest of all. She is sweet and jolly, but we find her with one folly for — Bucknell takes much of her time in the form of week-end visits, letters, and telephone calls. Wonder why? There ' s a reason. We surely wish her good luck and best of suc- cess and happiness in her future life. NAOMI TAYLOR Port Alle K any, Pa. Naomi is a brown-haired girl, who certainly must like teaching because she came back for mere education in the line. She has only been with us for a year, but we like her and wish her success in her chosen profession. Page Sixty-one ELLEN TEED Lloyd. Pa. Y. W. C. A. Altho ' this is Ellen ' s first term with us, she has made many friends, and won the respect of all of her instructors. She is of a very quiet, studious nature; but when you learn to know Ellen she for- gets her shyness and brings forth a store of fun. She came from Muncy to graduate with us. RUTH TERRY Brooklyn, Pa. Rurban Club; Outdoor Club; Student Council. Ruth has spent her full two years here with us and we wonder sometimes what we would have done without her. Few are as gifted with such a variety of abilities — for she can sing, play, squelch noisy girls, or teach a class of first graders with unusual efficiency. Ruth ' s wit is very keen and sharp, and few can resist its influence to bring forth a hearty peal of laughter. By her very manner we know that Ruth will be successful in whatever phase of life she may choose to follow. GRACE THAYER Dushore, Pa. Athletic Club; Hiking Club. ' How good is life the mere living. What Letter example cf this could we find than Grace herself. Her cheerful, happy-go-lucky hu- morous spirit has surely helped us all to have a good time at M. S. N. S. Full of pep, a good sport, and a pal worth having; that ' s Grace. Wishing you the best of luck in everything. LILA THOMAS Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Let us introduce you to Lila, a jolly good girl with the pretty brown hair and eyes. She has her likes and dislikes and is not afraid to express them. If one wishes to find Lila, the first place to look for her would be at the post-office where she eagerly waits to receive a letter bearing a State College post mark. Page Sixty-two MARIE THOREN Port Allegany, Pa. Athletic Club; Art Club; Y. W. C. A. Although this year is the first winter term Marie has been here, her winsome but frank ways have gained many friends and chums of both sexes. She is fond of athletics, especially hiking in the morn- ing air, basketball and swimming. She sometimes has a dreamy look in her eyes, but we understand the meaning. Her records stand as one of the very highest in her classes. Success is ahead. LEONA TIFFANY Hop Bottom, Pa. Rurban Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Do you enjoy an unassuming, agreeable, and game little sport? Here is your chance then. This girl has the real stuff, not bluff. Leona is a very interested postoffice fan. She can always tell when certain letters are coming. Most of her mail consists of dental literature. Some- times she gets a big box and then five minutes after- wards she is ready for the crowd, handing out chicken with all the trimming. We ' ll always remem- ber this good provider. SYBELL TRIMBLE Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Silas Long Emersonian Literary Society; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Is Sybell unusually quiet? Then you can be sure she is after some fun. Always ready fcr a joke or a good time, and if you say eats she ' s right on hand. She is a lover of music, whether it be piano or violin, and did you ever hear her play Farewell to Thee on her guitar? Sybell loves all animals, and she hopes to go West some day, where she will ride a bucking broncho . Best luck, Sybell. ELLA TURNER Canton, Pa. Many a good time this jolly girl from Bradford county has had at M. S. N. S. Haven ' t you. Ella? We don ' t know her as well as we wish because she has always lived downtown. We like her never- theless, for she has a very pleasing personality, always greeting you with a smile. She is we ' ll fitted for her profession, but will she stick to it all her life? Wait and see! Best of luck to a pleasing and diverting companion. Paee Sixty-ihree FRANCES VAN FLEET V. W. C. A. ; Outdoor Club Fun-loving, Reserved, Active, Neat, Conscientious, Earnest, Sweet, That ' s our Frances Best of luck to hei Canton, Pa. Rurban Club. MARGUERITE WALTERS Susquehanna, Pa. Peg Athletic Club. Light, but not a blond. Dark, but not a brunette. Now, you have her disposition. She has neither the weakness of the former or the temper of the latter. She is just firm. Did you ever see her laugh ? She can see fun in most anything — funny, if the saying, Laugh and be thin be true, this ex- plains Peg ' s 112. She is a clever dancer and gets mi re enjoyment out of dancing than some of us gets on 1 of lots of things. Sometimes she gets serious and then she will discourse on The Philosophy of Life. Good, isn ' t it? DOROTHY WATSON Dot Art Club; Hiking Club. Good times are incomplete without Dot. specialties are: Feeds, dancing, tobogganing snow-balling. Yes, she lives on that notorious Dot and a book are boon companions. She sists in reading History. Why? Her favorite is Frederick the Great. She calls him Fredd short. She says she likes teaching so well that I each until she e ' ets pensioned off. Lot ' s of luck, Dot! Vandling, Pa. Her and fifth. per- hero e for she ' ll BERNICE WEBSTER Mansfield, Pa. Well, here is Bernice, another ef our down town students. As to bobbed-hair it never has worried her, as she still wears her long tresses. This lassie never seems to be idle and is always happiest when in Juvenile Lit. class, giving book leports and story-telling, where she excels. I ven- ture to state that t he kiddies she teaches will enjoy her as their teacher. Pant; v lour FRANK WEBSTER Mansfield, Pa. Frank is a down town student, in which direction he departs as soon as classes are over — at least he is seldom seen around the school, thus we don ' t know him very well. Quiet, unobtrusive, and a conscientious worker. Frank deserves to get far ahead in the teaching profession. AVA WEEKS Elkland, Pa. Art Club; Y. W. C. A. They say she is quiet and dignified , yes, until you know her; then you find her full of fun and always looking for a good time. Ava is not only fond of teaching Art, but of ob- serving Art, especially in Grade 5A. BEATRICE WHITE Wyalusing, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Outdoor Club. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Beatrice takes things seriously, but she has the pluck and courage that will carry her far along the strenuous life of a teacher, until other and more personal affairs change her route. Her favorite saying is, I don ' t see why I didn ' t get a letter from my man today. Here ' s wishing you success in anything you under- take, Beatrice. ELIZABETH WHITMER Ralston, Pa. Libbetts Athletic Club; Dramatic Club; Rurban Club. A sweet and innocent type, but once a friend always a friend, for she has surely acquired the art of making friends. If you want to know someone with a charming disposition and. a happy smile make her ycur friend. She is a sport in every sense of the word for you should see her swim, dance, and participate in any form of athletics. She is a real success with the primary kiddies and they all love her, but who could do otherwise. Best of luck to Libbetss . Page Sixly-five LICILE WILCOX Covington, Pa. We know now that good things are done up in small packages, because we know Lucille. She is rather inclined to be shy and reserved, but once the ice is broken, we find the mischief there too. She has been very successful in her training school work, and we are sure of her success as a teacher. WILDA WILCOX Lawrenceville, Pa. Wilda is one of our studious, ambitious, dignified girls that stay down town. We are sorry that we do not know her better, nevertheless, we have found her to be a friend and classmate that we are proud of having at M. S. N. S. We wish you much suc- cess in the teaching- profession. ANNA WILLIAMS Olyphant, Pa. Little Anna Hiking Club. Those who have missed knowing Little Anna have certainly had a lot of sunshine shut out of the.r lives. Small, smiling, chubby, little Anna is always ready to lend a helping hand cr give a word of cheer to the ones in need. Her ' s is a friendship to be treasured. Her greatest desire is to become a kindergarten instructor, and we know she will be a successful one. Here ' s luck to you, Anna, old dear! Have you ever heard Anna to implore, Kite-a geeg, and gad-a-lap? It ' s pure Welsh. AUGUSTA WILLIAMS Sayre, Pa. Unconscious Glee Club; Art Club. She ' s hard to get acquainted with — but. oh. good- ness! Beware! It ' s easy once you get started. She likes to arouse your curiosity and leave you strand- ed. P ut a girl always has some imp abiding in her eye. Augusta likes: Kindergarten games, stud ' es. teaching, tennis, week-ends, and, best of all, good Act ' on books. Favorite expression: You never can tell. I ' a tii ' Sixty-six ELEANOR WILLIAMS Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Ellie Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club; Student Council; Glee Club. Everybody knows our Eleanor — how could they help it when she is every place at one time ? As far as being- the pep and life of the party — Eleanor wins every time and her gay optimism is very contagious. She can be serious, but we don ' t want her to be for we love her just as she is. We can ' t say that Eleanor isn ' t true to M. S. N. S. because her heart is in Muhlenberg, for we understand. Yet haven ' t you noticed her interest in Mansfield ' s Dick Barthlemess since he came . here the first of the year? We wonder??? ELSIE WILSON Mansfield, Pa. Elsie is one of our down town students who never fails to greet you with a cheery smile which has won her many friends. She appears to be quiet and studious, but wait until you know her. It isn ' t everyone who has dimples. We all wish her the greatest success in any and all the lines of work which she may undertake. VERNA WILSON Jermyn, Pa. Mansfield Masquers; Outdoor Club; Art Club; Y. W. C. A. She is lov ing, she is sweet, she is gentle, she is meek. For she makes her work like play, doing it in willing way. She never shrinks and she never shirks, we count on her for any work; But Elocution is her renown, her fame will spread to every town . Now we must tell you of her happy air, that makes the air shine everywhere, We know of success she will sure get her share For her life ship seems headed right there. IVA WINANS Laceyville, Pa. Bobbie Emersonian Society; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Iva is a pretty, blue-eyed lassie, a good student at M. S. N. S., yet always in for a good time. Her one hobbie lies in doing Art. She is happiest when she receives a letter, telegram or phone call from Factoryville. Best of luck to you and may your life be as prosperous as it has been at M. S. N. S. Pase Sixtv-seven ROBERTA WOLFE Jersey Shore, Pa. Bert Bert only joined us this year, but we hope she has learned to like us as well as we have learned to like the black-haired, laughing-eyed Bert . We wish Bert the best of luck and success in the teaching profession, but by the looks of things now, it won ' t hold her long. GUY WOODWORTH Troy, Pa. Abe Bowser When we see this indomitable Trojan appearing on the horizon we have a feeling down deep in our hearts that something is going to happen. We are all sure that he, as Dean of Field Instruction will be a success, but his natural abilities tend toward Health and Hygiene , for he insists that we study this subject with more care. So here ' s the best from the World ' s Storehouse to our popular friend, the Dispenser of Jocular- ity , habitat — South Hall. NORA WURSTER Linden, Pa. Nora is blue-eyed, slender and fair, W ' th a cheerful smile and long black hair. There ' s a five-year diary in Nora ' s hope chest. In which she writes before going to rest. We are wondering, in five years ' time If Nora will be teaching and pulling in dimes. She may not appear to be very fickle, Yet the time is coming when she ' ll have a nickel. MARION YOUMANS Reynoldsville, Pa. Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Did you ask who Marion Youmans is? Surely, you know her! If you do not. you have missed one of the best things at M. S. N. S. Even though she does not stay in the dorm., she is with us enough to make us regret her absence for she brings cheer and laughter with each and everv visit. Does she worry over her studies ? Nay. and this care- free and happy way is what wins for her her host of friends. Page Sixty-eight NAOMI YOUNG Monroelon, Pa. Toots Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. The flash of a brown, curly head around, a pair of dancing blue eyes, a cheery smile and greeting and lo! our Toots has arrived. Whenever there ' s something to be done — work or mischief — Toots is right there to do it. Her witty, fun loving, and unselfish ways have won her a lasting place in the hearts of all who have known her. We ' re for you, Toots ! May you have the best of success and luck. MALVINA ORDWAY Ulysses, Pa. On January 25th, 1926, there came to us a little dark-eyed lady with a bright smile, who soon won a warm place in our hearts, and already Malvina Ordway has become a most welcome worker in our midst. We join in wishing Mallie great success in her studious labors. Page Sixly-nine GOLDEN DAYS. W. E. A. With feeling. WILLARD E. ACKLEY, M S. N. S. Class of 1 926. JZa O +7 W : ; H 1.

A.; Domicilians; Glee Club. Gaze upon this roguish, brown-eyed maiden and you will see the Albright without looking at the stars. Barb is the most studious member of the Home Ee. Seniors — Oh, yes! but she likes to sing, Do Re, Me best of all. She has decided to become a Dr. Pultoggle for her friends ' benefit. We wish her much success in her undertaking. Smile at least once a day. KENNETH ALDRICH Starrucca, Pa. Kenneth ' s sojourn among us has been marked by high ambition and application to his work. He has made a firm place for himself in the class of 1926. Kenneth ' s avocation is music which he enjoys very thoroughly. RUTH ALDRICH Blossburg, Pa. Phoebe Jane Rurban Club; Art Club; Athletic Club; Literary Editor, Carontawan Board; Y. W. C. A. Any one who has ever been around Ruth realizes what and amiable disposition and rare scholastic ability she posseses. Very fond of all athletic ac- tivities, she is and interested spectator at every game. And then, Ruth ' s social life isn ' t in the least neglected, for where there is a party and eats she ' s there regardless of tomorrow ' s lessons. Numerous boxes and other gifts which come frequently keep the girls guessing as to whom her sheik might be. Best of luck to a girl whom everyone likes. MARGUERITE BAUMANN Olean, N. Y. Art Club. Those of us who have known and been in classes with Marguerite throughout these last three years have a firmly fixed admiration for her brillance, both in the classroom and the training school. Seem- ingly her studies take up all her time. We wonder! Marguerite ' s keen sense of humcr. together with her pleasing personality, make her an interesting and enjoyable companion. We like you, Marguerite, mav your life lie happy and complete. I ' aL ' r Sri enl 1 ' MARY BLAIR Spangler, Pa. Mansfield Masquers; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A. A lass she is so wondrous sweet, As fair as she you ' ll seldom meet. Mary needs no introduction. This slender person with mischievous deep blue eyes is one of the most popular girls of the school. Judging- from her suc- cess in the Training School she is certain to make a success later. Her wonderful personality seems to radiate a ' Hl all who know her admire her gracious manner and dignity counled with a winning smile. Good luck to you, Mary! ANDREW CAMPBELL Ulster, Pa. Emersonian Society, President; Rurban Club; Y. M. C .A.; Ambulance Co. Psychology? Why that ' s Andy ' s middle name. If what you are searching for isn ' t in Thorndike, con- sult this wizard and he can enlighten you. We only regret that Andy did not choose the music course so he could give vent to his feelings more efficiently. He is so ambitious, earnest, and sincere that he is sure to succeed. We ' re all certain that his name some day will appear in the Hall of Fame. LYNN CARPENTER Bath, N. Y. Football Reserves; Y. M. C. A. Many famous men have dwelt upon our campus in other days, but few of them ever held a firmer hold on the hearts of his classmates than Carp . It would take volumes to tell all of his qualities, so we will merely dwell on some of his accomplish- ments. Carp is always willing to lend a hand to a classmate in distress. His one outstanding fault is an inclination to be just a little tiresome. Of late he has shewn signs of overcoming this fault, and his presence in class is quite regular. FRANK CHURCH Ulysses, Pa. Football Reserves; Y. M. C. A. Frank ' s chief interest lies in the field of sport. Last fall his chief occupation was to play football with all his might. After the close of the football season his interest turned to pool. In the spring baseball claims his attention and girls interest him the whole year around. Pusc Seventy-three MARY CLIFFORD Susquehanna, Pa. Athletic Club; Latin Club. Mary is not only better looking- than the average girl, but she possesses some enviable characteristics which have gained for her the greatest treasures in life, friends. To this add her success in Junior High School as a Latin teacher and she may well say, I will pass each and see their happiness And envy none. WILLIAM COLE ' Bill Sayre, Pa. Emersonian Society; Y. M. C. A. Although Bill has been here with us for four years, we are just beginning to know his fine qual- ities and possibilities. He is quiet, reserved, and a hard worker, who has a definite goal in mind, and is determined to reach it. Such cannot be defeated and is certain to bring success in any field. We wish him good fortune in all his undertakings. AMOS CREDIFORD Athens, Pa. Creddie Football ' 24, ' 25; Baseball, ' 25; Student Council ' 26; ' M Club; Athenaean Literary Society; Rur- ban Club; Mansfield Masquers; Ambulance Com- pany; Y. M. C. A.; Carontawan Beard. ' Creddie has been wth us two years. He, like some others, came in the summer and taught two terms. He is a fellow we all like because of his nature. He says what he thinks at all times. There is only one thing, I think, that interferes with his studies, andt hat is his frequent trips to Elmira; but he says she is beneficial to him — so it is all right. HENRY HARROW Granville Summit. Pa. Hank Manager of Football ' 24; Manager of Baseball ' 25; Student Council ' 26; M Club; Athenaean So- ciety; Y. M C. A.; Ambulance Co.; Business Man- ager Carontawan Board. Hank is just an all ' round gold fellow wth many traits to make Mansfield proud of him. His ability as a politician and a leader have been clearly dem- onstrated during his three years here. Although Hank is small of stature, we expect to hear of his doing great things in the future. I ' n ' r SVi i iilv-ftiur MARION DAVIES Kingston, Pa. Glee Club; Hiking Club; Music Supervisors ' Club; Orchestra; Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet. So small to see Yet mighty to know. This petite little miss comes to us from Kingston, but, alas, the center of her attraction lies not there but is in the Little Red Schoolhouse in Tioga. Regardless of this interest she manages to get net- work and has time to be a friend to all. DO ROTH A ESCOTT Wellsboro, Pa. Dot Outdoor Club, President; Emersonian Society; Y. W. C. A. Short, but sweet That ' s Dot. With her sunny nature and loving disposition she is a combination admirable to all. She proved her ability when she was so successful in enlightening the youngsters in the Junior High School. Best wishes, Dot , for all success and happiness in years to come. Not finishe d, but just begun, and maybe Don will help. MABEL FELTY Lebanon, Pa. Domicilian Club; Hiking Club; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A. A Dutch girl of some renown Is she who hails from Lebanon town; She can laugh, she can sing. In fact, she does most everything. We find her laugh is most contagious, Sometimes it is quite outrageous, With croup we think she ' s coming down. Her language and expression are quite unique, Mcst any time we meet her on campus or street We may hear her age-old refrain — You better wouldn ' t do that again. PAUL FRENCH East Smithlield, Pa. Paul has been a member of our class for two years, during which time he has distinguished him- self for the number of conquests he has made. Athletics takes up part of Paul ' s time, and he divides the remainder between school activities and his work. Page Seventy-five EDSON HAVEN Troy, ] ., Eddie Ambulance Co.; Emersonian Literary Society- President Rurban Club; Y. M. C. A. Step up folks, meet the educator. At least that is the cognomen by which we of South Hall recog- nize this dignified looking chap. Eddie ' s outstanding- interests are mathematics and English. Oh, boy! but he has Webster and all those old timers beat about four breaths when it comes to big words. •lust a little secret; we understand that Eddie is a great hand a the hotel business and he has also been known to visit tanneries and Corning, N. Y. Here ' s luck for years to come. ETHEL HEIDENREIOH Hazleton. Pa. Norma Outdoor Club; Hiking Club; Domicilians; Y. W. C. A. By her business-like attitude and intellectual qualities Ethel proves that Knowledge is Power . She is one of the few who are blessed with a volumi- nous vocabulary and from her lips flow words of wisdom relished by all her companions. Without a doubt Ethel can put this vocabulary into use as a very capable Home Economics teacher. A fund of wit and humor and a spirit of gocd sportsmanship are some of Ethel ' s good dualities. DAMON HOLTON Mansfield, Pa. •Dee Orchestra; Band; Glee Club; Music Supervisors; Y. M. C. A.; Director of Red and Blacks. Dee is the man who stepped into the place left vacant by Ulna Goodall as leader of the immortal Red and Blacks, and who is filling his place nobly, bringing happiness to the countryside and school. Dee is in music and personality a genius and favorite, there :s no known instrument that he can not play. Success to you, Dee . Ill HER HOWELL LeRaysville, Pa. Orpheus Glee Club, President; Y. M. C. A.; Mali- Quartette. Howell is one of those fellows who knows his stuff, but doesn ' t publish it to the world. We have always found him slightly reserved, but a true friend and willing worker for all of that. Huber ' s marvelous bass voice has gained him much standing and prestige. His voice is of delightful quality and pleasing to the ear. The greatest attraction fcr Howell around here is bound in North Hall— Eth . She ' ll tell you all about it. P„!i Spj enty-si x C. PORTER HUNTINGTON Coudersport, Pa. Port Glee Club; Supervisors ' Club; Band; Orchestra; Y. M. C. A.; Red and Blacks; Football, 23, ' 24; Y Minstrels ' 23. ' 24, ' 25; Opera ' 24 , ' 25. ' 26. Port is our famous trombone virtuoso, and a member of the Red and Blacks. As one of our bud- ding; sups ' , he has been quite successful at com- posing. Who can imagine any singing at the Y smoking room without Port ? Whenever any merriment is staged on fourth floor he is sure to be found. UARDA HUNTINGTON Coudersport, Pa. Yarda Warda Glee Club; Domicilians; Outdoor Club; Caronta- wan Board. Sometimes happy, sometimes blue, Longing so much for a letter from you. When she ' s happy, Uarda ' s had her letter from Ambridge; when she ' s blue — well, that ' s another story. Usually, though, you find her smiling, so you may judge that letters come very frequently. Uarda seems to have a magnetic attraction for drawing people to her, students and faculty alike just naturally take to her, making for her many friends. CHARLES JAMES Genesse, Pa. Red Carontawan Board; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Varsity Football ' 23, ' 24; Rurban Club: Dramatic Club; Emersonian Literary Society; M Club; Ambulance Corps. Say, talk about a real teacher; this chap is right in his element as you can easily learn by meeting him. But he has other professions which he is master of, one of which is Tayloring . Well, here ' s success until we meet again. NAOMI JAQUISH Mansfield, Pa. Domicilians. Much in little . That ' s Naomi, — very accom- plished, very cheerful, very bright. She is. one of our Home Economics girls and whatever she may do, let ' s hope her three years here have not been in vain. Naomi is rather an impressionable lass and upon meditating upon her various heart affairs, says very decisively that she likes ' em all, but really, a resident of our County Seat holds the most favor- able place. Best of luck to you, Naomi. Page Seven-seven Williamsport, Pa. Semester, ' 25, ' 26; FRANCES JONAS Art Club. President, First Mansfield Masquers. We haven ' t had the chance to get much out of Frances concerning heiself. Her work takes up the her time. Despite this fact we know she is clever at Parlez-vousing . Ye Gods of Fortune ! What things you will do. While some poor creatures struggle and sink in French, Frances can rattle off that language fast enough to make your head spin. Have you seen her at Dramatics? If you haven ' t be sure you seize the opportunity when it comes. LLOY1) JONES Coudersport, Pa. Jonesy Football Squad ' 25; Athenaean Society; Mans- field Masquers; Ambulance. Jonesy came in twenty-three From Potter County, a teacher to be; He made a hit with all his class. And studied hard so he would pass. Out in the world I ' ll make a name So everyone will hear of my fame. He stuck to his text for three long years. And departs from Mansfield with open ears Tco Quickly tripping over the ground. PAUL JONES Rurban Club M. C. A. Paul is hannock. activities Tunkhannock, Pa. Emersonian Literary Society; Y. a congenial fellow hailing from Tunk- He lends a helping hand in all our school When it comes to debate and argument — why that is Paul ' s meat and drink. Enough for serious things. As for a Sunday night feed — when that subject is mentioned, Paul is the first to second the motion. We are sure John Paul will reach the Summit of his chosen profession as easily as he will go to another Summit. May he have success in and another Summit. HELEN KIBBE North Bingham, Pa. Art Club; Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club; Domicilians. Who is Helen?— a little mite, Doing her job the best she can; Being just to her fellowman. Staying true to her aims and ends, Learning how and holding friends, Sharing sorrow and work an dmirth. Making better this good old earth. Serving, striving, thru ' strain and stress Doing her noblest with great success — That ' s Helen. Pnge Seventy-eight 4iifc CHRISTINE LAVIN Olyphant, Pa. Music Supervisor; Music Supervisor ' s Club; Ves- per Choir; Glee Club. Vice President; Orchestra. She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies, And all that ' s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes. Christine is an interesting companion and a go: d friend, who brightens many an occasion with her Irish wit and opt : mism. A capable and conscien- tious worker, she is sure to meet success in her chosen profession. OLIVER LAJVGDON Plains, Pa. Ollie Rurban Club; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Student Coun- ' 26; Football Squad ' 25; Vice President Senior Class; Amtulance Company. A cheery, happy pal is Ollie , always lo king for a good time and usually finding it. We are sure that you will be a success, Ollie . We give you our best wishes. We know that his thoughts are not selfish, for we often hear him singing, My Bonnie lives over in North Hall. RANDOLPH MARBLE Wellsboro, Pa. Another Wellsboro sheik. Our Randolph is a ver- itable Kitten on the Keys and we don ' t mean per- haps, either And, oh my! the ladies! We predict a stormy, but most interesting career for our chari- otier, if his Normal life is any barometer. DAVID MARTIN Morris Run, Pa. Varsity Football ' 25; Track Manager ' 25; Basket- ball ' 26; Dramatic Club; Emersonian Literary So- ciety; Band; Y. M. C. A. Some call him Dave , some call him Joe , and some other Persons call him more endearing names. In football and on track Joe proved the stuff that is in him and if his ability and determination carry over into his teaching when he goes out into that field, our future Superintendent of Public In- struction will come from Morris Run. The Colle- gians boast of a mean trumpet footer. Page Seventy-pine AMELIA MATUSZEWSKI Hazleton, Pa. Athletic Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Who is Georgie? A Hazleton lassie, tall and fair, With witching- blue eyes, but dark brown hair. She likes Mansfield five days out of seven, But the remaining two — Blossburg is her heaven. We wonder whether Georgie has decided to cor- rect paper for Casper or help Ed keep his bank account straight. Anyway we wish you heaps of success. GEORGE McCABE Campbell, N. Y. Carontawan Board; Y. M. C. A. Mac hails from the thriving city of Campbell. For three years he has been the most sought after man in South Hall, not by the ladies, but by the men, for George is the President of the M. S. N. S. Candy Shop. Now don ' t be mistaken for Mac is also popular with the fair sex in North Hall. George is also very successful in his school work. He once said all the great men are dying and he felt sick himself. CARMEN MILLIREN Reynoldsville, Pa. Carmeen Nomie President of Glee Club; Carontawan Board; Student Council; Ladies ' Quartette; Dramatic Club; Y. W. C. A. A tall, dark-haired, black-eyed girl with a won- derful voice — that is our Carmen. Did you ever see a dry-eyed audience after Carmen has sung? This girl has strange powers over us. Who is it we call upon to sing for us — if it isn ' t Carmen. But singing isn ' t all she enjoys, because she adores a violin and a gcod violinist. As for Carmen ' s teaching abil- ity, that is unquestioned by those who have seen her work in the Training School. CARL NEWELL Knoxville, Pa. Bob President of Mansfield Masuuers, Carontawan Board; Chairman Senirr Prom: Rurban Club; Band; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Football Reserves. Who says they don ' t know Bob? His likeable personality just naturally draws people to him, like iron to a magnet. Because of this quality he is always on friendly terms with occupants across the arcade . But Bob is a conscientious worker and is envied his capability in teaching. He has been one of the mainstays of the band and the Y for three years. ' i ' Eighty HAROLD O ' DELL Mansfield, Pa. Poke- Glee Club ' 23, ' 26; Rurban Club; M Club; Var- sity Football ' 23, ' 25; Carontawan Board; Sergeant Ambulance Company. Whether it is work or play O ' Dell is in the game every minute. If you ' ve seen him go thru ' that line down on the field cr in the Lab. you ' ll know. Poke performs with equal ability in the Junior High, so we are all certain we will hear of greater achievements from him in the years to come. ALFHILD PARSON Mt. Jewett, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Hiking Club; Domicilians. To describe our beloved Al in eighty mere words is impossible. We cannot confine the sun to ' one room, neither can Als ' praises be sung in so brief a space. She inspires us to poetry: A — is for our admiration. L — is her laughter ' s duration, F — is for her friendship true, H — is for happiness, her rightful due; L — is her laughter ' s long duration, L — is the love which inspires these lines, D — Dom Science in which she shines. ALICE PARSONS Westfield, Pa. Alice first made her appearance at M. S. N. S. during the winter of 1924. Last year she absented herself to return again to our ranks this year in order to complete her training for Junior High School work. We do not see very much of Alice as she spends most of her week-ends in her home town. EDWARD PECK Say re, Pa. Ed Class President, Middler. Senior; Student Council ' 26; Mansfield Masquers; Athenaean Society; Rurban Club; Y. M. C. A.; Orpheus Glee Club; Gos- pel Team ' 25, ' 26; Ambulance Company. A glance at the above activities will give you an idea of the versatility of Ed. He has shown us that a big man can really be a big man, by his leader- ship of our class through many difficulties. We know that Ed will be Graced by the spirit of true success. Page Eighty-one GRACE POTTER Old Forge, Pa. Dracy Rurban Club; Domieilians; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Grace is the ideal modern girl. She is frank, pep- py, and capable, combining- these qualities with good sense and sweet goodness. When it comes to bas- ketball, skiing, tobogganing, and all kinds of sports, Grace is always around to make the party more en- joyable with her pep. She very cleverly arranged a secret party for us and the grand surprise was the sewing numerals en basketball jerseys. Who was surprised. Everyone of us, because we ex- pected and surmised just heaps of things. BERNITA POWERS Mansfield, Pa. Glee Club. Jim is a regular all around girl. Her easy- going, pleasant way will get her most any where. Can she eat and dance? Well, I ' ll say she can. If you want someone who is in for a good time, call on Jim . She may be busy, it ' s true, for she really is quite popular. Once you know Bernita you find she is the kind of a friend you can ' t and never will forget. Here ' s luck to Jim . GRACE PRYOR Blair ' s Corners, Pa. Emersonian Society; Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A.; Glee Club. Although Grace belonged to our class last year, she did not live in the dorm, and so we didn ' t know her as well as we wished. This year she has made for herself an assured place in the hearts cf the many friends she has made in both North and South Halls. We know that she will rise to the heights in f he educational fields because of our observation of her accomplishments in the Junior High School. FRED H. RINGROSE Berwick, Pa. ' Fritz Glee Club; President of Supervisors ' Club ' 26; Band; Orchestra; Male Quartette ' 26; Y. M. C. A.; Red and Blacks; Y Minstrels ' 24, ' 25; Opera ' 25. 26. Chief supporter of restaurants and ice cream parlors — that ' s Fritz . Fritz is among the pre- mier pianists and composers of the school. He holds down the percussion section of both Orcestra and Band with an ease that can be equaled by no other man of his own weight. We will remember Fred throughout our days as the jolly fellow whom we know will make his mark in this world of hard knocks. I ' litie. A V ' i in i DOROTHY ROBERTS Hop Bottom, Pa. Dot Rurban Club; Hiking Club. Little one realizes the depths of Dot ' s humor until one knows her well. Does she ever miss an oppor- tunity for a witty remark or a good joke ? Ask her friends. She pretends to be hard as nails and tough as leather, but we think the name doesn ' t apply. Dot enjoys ghost stories and popcorn balls, especially as midnight feeds. She wouldn ' t break rules because it isn ' t the right thing to do, but did you ever visit 450 North Hall. Good luck, ol ' kid! PAUL RUSSELL Athens, Pa. Orpheus Glee Club. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. Paul is calmness of mind and dignity personified. He accepts things as they are and makes the best of them — which, after all, is a mighty good thing to do. He is one of our prominent down-town students. You don ' t believe it? Ask some of the down-town girls. We hear that he can play the organ. Our best wishes go with you, Paul. FLOYD SCOTT Springville, Pa. Barney Google How did Floyd receive his nickname? That is a matter of ancient history, in fact, few, if any, knew who originated it. Floyd is by far more widely known as Barney than by his real name. Barney joined us three years ago with the idea of taking Group II, and as a consequence did his work in the Training School last year. We hope he will find his place in the ranks of Group III bet- ter since he has made the change. HELEN SHERMAN Port Allegany Pa. Music Supervisors ' Club; Y. W. C. A.; Glee Club; Hiking Club; Athenaean Society. She is always happy, no matter what the weather. We hope that Helen will have as much success in her coming teaching ex perience as she had with her work here. She is a good student and loyal friend; from her radiates the fragrance of a sweet disposi- tion and a sunny smile which have won their way into the hearts of all her schoolmates. Page Eighty-lhree HOWARD SQUIRES Hop Bottom, Pa. Band: Orchestra; Orpheus Glee Club; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet. Howard became one of us in the autumn of 1923 and has remained with us fcr three winter terms. He is jolly, full of pep, and can he tease? Just ask his room-mate! He is a real pal of the ladies, but his interests extend outside M. S. N. S., we know, because he has that daily letter from Penn State. We know you ' ll be a successful teacher, Howard, so here ' s to you! GENEVIEVE STEARNS Coudersport, Pa. Gene Hiking Club; Domicilians; Rurban Club; Y. W. C. A. When you see a curley head peeking- ' round the corner, you ' ll know that it belongs to Genevieve. Nearly every one knows Gene — if they don ' t know her, they have heard of her because of her famous committee meeting ' s. We wonder where Genevieve spends her week- end, and why — at a place not far from Mansfield. Never mind, Gene, Smithville is a good place. MARYETT TILLMAN Painted Post. N. Y. Tillie Supervisors ' Club; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A.; Athe.iaean Society. Syracuse ' s loss is our gain. Tillie is a peach, full of pei . thoroughly modern. When it comes to music and dancing, Tillie is more than entrancing; As for the subject of teachin. Just great! And here I end my preaching. ORLO VAN CAMPEN Clark ' s Summit, Pa. Outdoor Club; Domicilians; Y. W. C. A. Orla is another one of cur Home Economics stu- dents. She is a very conscientious and faithful student and always thinks of her wcrk before play- ing. She is a friend worth having and we are sure she will make a successful teacher. 0--The beginning of her name, R For R.ght--always the same, I, A life serene and kind. A Just a man to mind. ! ' ■!-• liifilil) loin PERRY WHITNEY Thompson, Pa. Rurban Club; Y. M. C. A. Yes, here is our friend, Perry. He is always ready to lend a helping- hand. Besides being a good student he is a motion picture machine operator. At this work he is as skilled as any professional. Perry has little use for North Hall and its occu- pants and is rarely seen in its vicinity. He is more interested in animal husbandry and care for his stock well. Laying aside all joking we appreciate his ability and wish him success anytime, anywhere. ELLIS WILLIAMS Nicholson, Pa. Band; Orchestra; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet. Ellis is a cheerful, slow, and easy-going fellow who always gets there, even though he is a little late. Ho has developed a taste for fancy handwriting and will be a second Palmer someday. He seems to have very little interest in our M. S. N. S. girls, but you can readly understand that by the pictures he has in his room. Good luck to you, Ellis, all through life. IVAH YOUMANS Mansfield, Pa. Orchestra; Glee Club. They say she is quiet and dignified . Yes; until you know her, then you find that she is full of fun and always in for a good time. Ivah will make good in whatever she undertakes because she has the ability back of her. Here ' s luck to you, Ivah, for we know you are on the road to success. JOE YURKEWITCH Elkland, Pa. Glee Club; Male Quartette; Mansfield Masquers. The harmony of the smoking room quartette will be broken when this good bass singer is graduated from M. S. N. S. Joe also has ohter accomplish- ments besides his voice. His dramatic ability is unquestioned, especially his abilty to take coniedy parts in plays. Jce ' s only failing is his inability to forget that little brunette of last year ' s class. Page F.i lu v-five •final (Sntimatra ANNA BLATCHLEY Wellsboro, Pa. Group Three has had a mighty fine addition to its ranks in Anna. We, who have been members of this group for three years, are not as well ac- quainted with her as we would wish. We hear that Anna likes fun as well as the rest of us, but that she is also a conscientious worker. You have our best wishes, Anna. May you be a success in your chosen field. FLORENCE LORD Waverly, N. Y. Y. W. C. A.; Domicilians. Florence returned to M. S. N. S. this year to com- plete her fourth year in Home Economics. Part of this year she has spent having a lovely time whde doing her practice teaching at Truckville. Florence is fun-loving and is almost always seen in company with her twin. Best of luck to you both in the Home Ec. field. IRENE LORD Waverly, N. Y. Y. W. C. A.; Domicilians. Irene is said to be the older of the twins and is known to be the more serious one of the two. She, as well as her sister, is very good at Art and Sew- ing. Irene is willing, conscientious, hard working. quiet — yet with a twinkle of merriment in her dark eyes. ' ■t ,■ Eighty- BEATRICE LUDINGTON Beatrice has returned to M. S. N. S. after a year ' s practical work in the teaching profession, to do work in Group Three. Clever in her classes, conscientious about her work in genera], quite capable of enjoying good times, Bea will succeed. ANNA MASON Sayre, Pa. Last year Anna finished in Group Two, but she decided that Group Three suited her better, so she returned to finish in that group. Anna has time for fun as well as work and enjoys it to the utmost. We ' ll remember these dormitory days a long time won ' t we, Anna? The smile that won ' t come off is a fitting expression to give to you. No circum- s ' ance can change that never-ending smile. How did you get your dimples? THOMAS O ' BOYLE Miners Mills, Pa. Tom, Boyle, Stackey Manager of Basketball, ' 25; M Club; Y. M. C. A.; Emersonian Society. Tom completed the required work in Group Two last year, but decided to go a step higher on the educational ladder. Boylee ' s main avocation is dancing. As an exponent of interpreter of this art, he is paramount. An indifferent look from Tom doesn ' t mean anything, for beneath lie the elements of true friendship. JULIA ROGERS Emporium, Pa. Judy President of Domicilian Club; Student Council; Rurban Club; Dramatic Club; Glee Club. Judy needs no introduction because of hei responsibilities and self-sacrifice of her office as Student Council. Judy has efficiently and suc- cessfully performed her duties and won the love of everyone. One of Judy ' s most admirable qualities is he thoughtfulness for others and is always at hand to cheer people when they are blue.

In view of these facts we anticipate an unprecedented Senior year. Our Junior year was filled with more or less excite- ment. We had come here as high school seniors and having to be subjected at once by the upper classmen of this institution was not only a surprise but also a great disappointment to many of us. But, as the weeks passed, realizing our intellectual inferiority, we began to have more esteem for our learned superiors. We must admit however, that many of our most valuable lessons were learned during- this period of infancy. On September 8. 1925, we returned to school as Middlers eager to participate in all that was in store for us. During 1 the year our life in The little town on the hill has been somewhat typical of that which we can reasonably expect later in the world of occupations. On December 11, a few days before our Christmas vacation, our class was called upon to realize the uncertainty of life and the certainty of death when one of our class members, Robert Cowles, passed away, following only a few days illness of septic pneumonia. To his parents we extend profound sympathy and may we trust that his untimely passing has been the decree of divine will. And now as the closing weeks are approaching we wish to extend our thanks to the faculty who have shewn great interest in our welfare during the term. Memories of them and the Juniors ' acquaintances which we expect to renew in September, 1926, will always remain with us. To the Seniors, we are to say Farewell and may their succcess in the future be their fortune and our inspiration to bring even great3r fame to our Alma Mater. E. L.

Higher education was the aim and desire of most of us. We were tired, yet flushed with excitement and curiosity. There were new faces, scenes, and situations — a new environment with which to meet and cope. We were first attracted by the buildings as they stood like sentinels on the hill facing the own. Enhancing their solid foundations, the campus wide and luxuriant, with green grass, trees and shrubs rendering the scenic effect perfect. Like all new arrivals we were green . We made many mistakes, but, we live to learn and we learn by doing. Because of that keen desire, we overcame all awkwardness of manner, gaining inwardly a higher respect for the school, and consequently an ambition to set our standards topmost as a class. The Juniors have certainly fared well from an athletic point of view. The chronicles on athletics will fully corroborate this statement. Many words of praise and acknowledgement are due the faculty for the kind and patient manner in which they received us and in their endeavors to brighten the way on the rugged path to higher education. As for the upper classmen too much cannot be said. They have aided us in social dilemmas, punished us only when necessary, and have guided us in determining and placing the high standard which we, as a class, must uphold in all things. We sincerely wish for them, God Speed . May we, the Juniors, as one neat body do our part to uphold the sacred traditions of this noble institution and may it be said of us: Here is a class that is ideal from every angle. K. R. J. ' 28.

Her elements, vibration, itation are the elements of Life itself. Wherever Life is, she is also, stealthy, inaudible, unrecognized, yet mighty. She is mingled with the flow of rushing waters, with the breath of the winds, with the murmur of the forests; she lives in the earth ' s seismic heavings, in the mighty motions of the planets, in the hidden conflict of inflexible atoms; she is in all thei lights, in all the colors that dazzle or soothe our eyes; she is in the blood of our arteries; in every pain, passion or ecstasy that shakes our hearts. She is everywhere, soaring beyond and above the range of human speech into unearthly spheres of divine emotion. — Paderewski. Pn e One Hundred Nine een SENIOR MUSIC SUPERVISORS C JT HAS WELL BEEN SAID that Music is the smile of education and so each year in this department, students are prepared to g-o out to distribute smiles not only to the many children in public and private schools, but also to the many people with whom they ccme in contact. Mansfield is one of the three schools in Pennsylvania that has had a course in Music Supervision instituted by Dr. Hollis Dann. It is a source of great gratification that we had a man like Dr. Dann to work out just such a course as we have here and that we have a woman like Mrs. Grace Steadman, our Dean of Music, to carry it on. This course now requires three years, but in all probability it will soon be a four year degree course. Instruction in Public School Music methods and other subjects is given under the capable guidance of Mrs. Steadman, Dean of Music, and she is assisted by a group of qualified and inspirational teachers. Miss Rachel Jones, who left for a year, has returned to us as Critic Super- visor. She has special ability and, under the influence of her never tiring efforts to mold each student into a good teacher, they get two years practice teaching in the Training School, Junior High School, and Senior High School. Miss Georgia Locke Hoag, who is not only a graduate of the School of Music at Syracuse University with a degree, but also an advanced student of Miss Puue One lhnnhr l Twenty BOYS ' GLEE CLUB Carolyn Alchin, of California, gives instruction in Alchin Harmony. Under her direction, Harmony, instead of being a dry subject, is one of the livest in the depart- ment. She also gives instruction in Theory, Dictation, Sight Reading and Melody Writing. Mr. John F. Myers is the instructor in Music Histcry, Sight Reading and Band Methods. Our school band is under his personal direction. Mrs. John F. Myers is instructor in Music Appreciation, Sight Reading, and also a private teacher of piano. Instruction in stringed instruments is given by Dr. Will George Butler and as director of the Mansfield Normal Symphony Orchestra he is the best obtainable in the country. His Mansfield, Hail! (our Alma Mater) is one of the best school songs ever composed, and every student realizing its merit gives due credit to its composer. The voice work is under the most thorough instruction of Miss Cora Atwater, contralto, and Miss Elsie Perkins, Soprano. Instruction in Piano is given under the careful and capable direction of Miss Irene Ripley, Miss Janice Clark and Mrs. John Myers. A number of recitals are given every year in all phases of the Conservatory work. The Mansfield State Normal Band is directed by Mr. John Myers, who, by his untiring efforts has raised the standards of this organization to such a degree that it wins the admiration of not only the students, but of the many auditors before whom it has played. Each year the band makes a number of trips to nearby towns where they play firs tclass concerts. The Mansfield State Normal Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Dr. Will George Butler, plays each year a number of symphonies of great composers, zation which meets twice a month. At the meetings many problems are discussed Page One Hundred Twenty-one GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB Of this organization Manderville Bartle is concertmeister, and he is also assistant to Dr. Butler. This organizatioon makes trips to other towns where programs are given consisting of symphonies, overtures and other forms of instrumental music. The Dean of Music, with the assistance of Miss Hoag as accompanist, has under her own personal direction the Orpheus Glee Club which is composed of thirty- nine male voices selected from the school in general. This club gives a number of concerts yearly and this year they are planning to make several trips to nearby towns to give concerts. The Cecelian Glee Club is under the direction of Miss Rachel Jones, with Miss Janice Clark as accompanist. Miss Jones ' pleasing personality has won for her the esteem and admiration of the one hundred four members of this club. At least one concert is given yearly by this organization. Besides several special numbers, the club will give The Lady of Shalctt by Bendall this year. From the Orpheus and Cecelian Glee Clubs are selected one hundred voices which go to make up a Vesper Choir. This choir usually gives three concerts yearly, but this year there will be but one, which will be given at Easter time. The men ' s quartet is chosen from the Orpheus Glee Club and they usually assist in concerts given by that club, besides giving their aid at any other time they are needed. It is under the direction of Mr. Myers. Likewise, the ladies ' quartet is chosen from the Cecelian Glee Club, and is under the direction of Miss Jones. They give several numbers at the time of the Glee Club concert, and also help at any time they are called upon to do so. As a climax for each year ' s work an opera is given. Sullivan ' s Mikado was produced last year and was an overwhelming success. The opera is always under the general direction of Mrs. Steadman, who directs the action and music while Miss Hoag accompanies. The general co-operation for this work is most unusual. Last year special scenery was painted by Miss Laura Wheeler and Dr. Will George Butler. So far, every student who has graduated from this Music Supervisors ' Course and has gone out into the field, has made a decided success. Puuc One lliinihril Th ruis-iii i, ©raining rljnnl Training School (jJl RE TRAINING SCHOOL where we, Mansfield Normal graduates of the class of 1926, have received the most vital part of our education has been rarely blessed, as have we also, by the directorship of Mr. E. A. Retan. He, mindful of the welfare of each student, full of ideas for adjusting all of us to better class- room procedure, firm and unrelenting in establishing high standards of endeavor, inspires each to truer professional effort. The Training School has helped us more than any other department in learning about the child. We feel that in this department our contact with the children, in observation, demonstration and teaching assignments, has been guided, made more purposeful, meaningful, and in every way helpful by the unusual ability of its supervisory staff. Shades of the prison house certainly do not close around the growing boy who is in one of the first six grades in this institution. But rather, the child takes his proper place and is the reason why teachers are trained, why we have been trained. It is fitting that we should include in our year book a page which shall remind us in the future of the spirit and the ideals of that department of our school where we began our work and pledged ourselves to the service of children. rHE JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL was organized in the fall of 1920 with dual objectives: it aimed to provide more definitely for the needs of the adolescent of the community; and it hoped to afford an opportunity to the Normal students of Group III to catch the spirit and enthusiasm so necessary to successful teaching in this transition period in every child ' s life. The Junior High School has enjoyed a very happy existence through its life in Mansfield. The community has co-operated loyally, giving praise for effort without too close scrutiny of actual results; and student teachers of each class, that of 1926 being in no sense behind its predecessors, have without exception spent time and enthusiasm without stint or measure in order that each Junior High School student might get value received for each minute spent in our Junior High School. It is a pleasure to pay tribute where tribute is due. It is altogether safe to predict that no school system will ever receive more sympathetic, enthusiastic service from the people who have taught in our Junior High School as student teachers than that which they have rendered here as student teachers. We hope for a happy future as an organization. And we frankly depend upon the Normal Seniors to carry on in such fashion as to justify our continued existence. Purc Onp Hundred Twcnty ' our Art Department ONE WHO TEACHES others how to make beautiful things must often feel the satisfaction of an artist in a two-fold way. His pupil ' s mind is a medium more plastic than clay or other material he may work with and although relatively- few of those taught will be craft workers and fewer still artists, yet even the teachers commonly undervalue the impression they make on their pupils ' attitude of mind toward all things beautiful. That very impression, however slight or fleeting it may appear to be, creates a craving and a respect for things beautiful, and later will also create the demand which is indispensable to encourage artists to produce great work. This is the only way in which art can prosper now with us, by becoming universal, by being something to which everybody ' s heart responds. We may not all be producers of beautiful things, but we can as a nation be much more appreciative. THE GOSPEL OF ART Work thou for pleasure: paint, sing or carve. The thing thou lovest, tho the body starve. Who works for glory misses oft the goal. Who works for money coins his very soul. Work for the work ' s sake, then and it may be That these things shall be added unto thee. — Kenyon Cox. Ilimilml Tirrnh s-j.i Htbrarg Hometown Public Library, Hometown, Pennsylvania, May 2, 1926. Dear Mary and Bob: So you are to graduate in a few weeks from Mansfield State Normal School ? My very best congratulations. Indeed it is hard to realize that you have been away at school three years. And your father has given each of you twenty-five dollars to be spent for books ? And he recommends that they be fairly recent ones which will be enjoyable readng? What an unusually discerning father. You are fortunate young people. As for myself, I can think of no more delightful task than telling you of some things you may enjoy. You both love poetry, I know; and I remember that last summer at camp you were bewailing the lack of a good collection. If I were graduating, I should hope that some one might be inspired to give me the Oxford Book of English Verse. It includes the loveliest things in English poetry from the year 1250 to 1900, and is a real treasure. Then we must have one of the modern collections. There are two good ones by Untermeyer, Modern British Poetry and Modern American Poetry. Or one might choose Wilkinson ' s Contemporary Poetry, which has both British and American verse. There is a recent anthology of lyrics — Golden Treasury of Modern Lyrics edited by Binyon — which is not too large to carry in a pocket, at least it is not too large for a boy ' s pocket. Bob will like any of these, and will perhaps want to add a volume of Service or Kipling. Mary may choose one of Amy Lowell ' s collections. Does either of you know those little books of Houseman ' s. A Shropshire Lad and Last Poems ? There is something fascinating to me in their bitter-sweet terseness. With rue my heart is laden and When I was one-and-twenty — aren ' t those fas- cinating first lines? Biography is as varied and almost as much read as fiction nowadays. Biographers seem to have found new ways of looking at their subjects — one might almost say at their victims in some instances. Here are a few that occur to me: Queen Victoria by Strachey, iconoclastic but delightful; A Son of the Middle Border by Garland, deeply felt and quite beautifully written for the most part; Everybody ' s Saint Francis by Egan, with its beautiful pictures by Boutet de Monvel; From Immigrant to Inventor by Michael Pupin, with chapters of real poetic charm, especially those depictng the author ' s boyhood life in Serbia; My Garden of Memory, the autobiography of Kate Douglas Wiggin, with its revelation of somewhat of the personal charm of its author. It seems to me that I have heard you say, Bob, that you do not like essays. Ask your school librarian to find for you some rainy afternoon the first series of Modern Essays edited by Christopher Morle y, and try the one entitled, Some Nonsense About a Dog. If you like that go on to the next — The Fifty-first Dragon. Mary, you will like, I believe, The Hills of Hingham by Dallas L. Sharp. Its contents range from the consideration of pigs to that of honey, and from seed catalogues to foxes. Should you like to buy a guide book to Paris, Mary? I know you hope to go to that heaven of good Americans someday? There is a really interesting one by Laughlin, called So You ' re Going to Paris? It is as chatty and intimate as its title. Bob will perhaps journey to the wilds with Hans Coudenhove in his My African Neighbors, or with William Beebe in his Jungle Peace. Or both of you may prefer to explore the world lying nearer at hand with Fairs in his beautiful Seeing Pennsylvania. With the best of good wishes, Your friend, THE LIBRARIAN. 1 ' iij ' dm- Hundred Twenty-eight Bern? lEammttirs JE5 We may live without poetry, music, and art; We may live without conscience, and live without heart; We may live without friends; We may live without books; But civilized man cannot live without cooks. —Meredith Thus we chose our course. HOME ECONOMIC SENIORS OUR CREED H :me Economics stands for: The ideal home life today unhampered by the traditions of the past. The utilization of the resources of modern science to improve the home life, The freedom of the home from the dominance of things and their due sub- ordination to ideals; That simplicity in material surrounding ' s which will free the spirit for the more important and permanent interests of the home and of society. —Ellen H. Richards (1842-1911). Page One Hundred Thirty Home Economics It was three years ago, when we, the class of 1926, entered the walls of learning ' of our dear old Mansfield State. There was hard work, but too, there was the pleasure of becoming acquainted with some and forming true friendships with others. We learned a new social life, which we had not known before and the credit is yours — Dear School. Among the Normal Schools of the State to Mansfield belongs the distinction of having the first four year class to be graduated. This year we are proud to say we have three girls who will finish the four year curriculum and we hope that each year the classes will be larger. Graduation from this course will allow one to teach in both vocational and general home economics courses. Our course offers instruction in cookery, clothing, practical housekeeping, and a host of rela + ed subjects. Our practice in applying this knowledge comes when we live at the practice house during our third year and in our student teaching in the Junior High School. Through the able supervision of Miss Lu Hartman and the co-operation of the State Department, the educational content of the course has been strengthened sufficiently to put it on a degree granting basis for those who finish the four year curriculum. In the past year the enrollment of the course has greatly enlarged, making it necessary to add several new buildings. We have expected for some time to have a Home Economics building all cur own. We are sorry to report that it is still only on paper, but we haven ' t given up hopes it will all come some day. Excellent instruction in clothing is given by Miss Sadie Smith and we all feel very fcrtunate in having one so patient with us during our trials of making- coats and dresses. During our first year Miss Smith was taking further work at Columbia University, but she was heartily welcomed our second and third years. All the members of the course have received information and experience in cookery and related subjects under the supervision of Miss Maryon F ' arrer. Our girls are not talented only in making pies and cakes, or designing and makng garments, but many have developed other talents in taking voice, piano and elocution, and many are member of the Glee Club. The teacher who misses all the fun Says of Home Projects, It can ' t be done. In solemn pride she stands around And greets each venture with a frown. She ' d have no electric lights or steam, No basketball or football team; No telegraph or telephone, She ' d linger in the age of stone; The school would sleep — if things were run By people who say, It can ' t be done. Piii e One Hundred Thirlv one Men ' s Gospel Team Musicians: Edward Peck, Vocal Gordon Williams, Violinist and Accompanist Earl Lunger, Clarinet Speakers: Robert Kellerman Charles James Charles DeWitt 6 7 OT A VERY OLD ORGANIZATION, which may partly account for its J l aggressiveness. The Gospel Team has been very active this year. It , held services in most every church in Mansfield and in towns within a radius of fifty miles. The team is composed of good timber, men who are interested in religious work and who try to do their best in promoting Christian spirit and character. The Y. M. C. A. did no bad thing when it added the Gospel Team as an outside worker. The team helps to strengthen the Y and also awakens outsiders to the fact that there is a student Y. M. C. A. at Mansfield. Aside from the splendid experience received by each individual memher, the team has tried to be of service to others. It was ready at all times to respond to emergency calls. The team also did a little work in the way of week-end programs. These included, besides the regular church services on Sundays, meetings for young people, services for children, and recreational programs. We are in hopes that the Gospel Team of the future will enter into this field more extensively.

To reach the culmination in life, we must have those fundamental abilities, of acquiring friends, of leadership, and of tactfully handling all situations. The society furnishes an oppor- tunity for the development of these abilities. Our meetings are semi-monthly, being about an hour and a half in length. Our programs vary in type and form always coinciding, however with the purpose of the society. Our debates are on present, live topics, and are of interest to all. Dramatization, readings and songs are included in our programs. Excellent programs have been rendered this year, giving much credit to the program committee, whose hard work and skill have made these possible. Dr. Williamson, our sponsor, deserves great credit for her advice and directions throughout the past year. This has been a very profitable year for the Athenaean Literary Society, both in an educational and financial respect. A number of plays have been presented before the school. These helped to put the society on a sound financial basis and at the same time gave the members an opportunity to display their talents. The society desires only strong, hard working, conscientious, broadminded men and women, who have foremost in their minds the advancement and betterment of society and their country, as well as their individual selves. Upon glancing over the numerous activities of the society this year, we can see a real spirit of pride and enthusiasm at work in it, indicating that the Athenaean Literary Society still holds a prominent place among the Normal activities. — Lloyd Jones, ' 26.

W. C. A., but we are so very proud of ours here at M. S. N. S. that we must tell of the wonderful success it has been. Normal school life, as everyone knows, is a very busy one. We have had much fun and frolic along with our common interests of the class-room. But above all this there is something even greater; something deeper, something quieter, something infinitely more compelling in its power and influence. It enters lives, and makes each one purer, broader, and more splendid. It is the Christian Spirit which has entered our hearts through the Y. W. C. A. here at M. S. N. S. We are justly proud of our large membership this year since it has been purely voluntary and exceeds two hundred. Our meetings have been well attended because of their varied and interesting programs made possible only thru the hearty co-operation of each girl. Last summer the cabinet attended a Y. W. C. A. conference held at Eagles- mere. Inspirations received at this conference have led us to adopt a new type of meeting. We have carried out the plan of the open cabinet meeting, and discussion groups, besides the regular devotional meeting. Our discussions have been very interesting, for we had such fun in talking about problems of the modern girl. For example, some have been: Should the Modern Girl Smoke, Can a Woman Have a Profession and a Home, and The Man I Want to Marry. Aside from these regular meetings we also had many social events. Girls, shall we ever forget that lawn party when we played the games and when we first began to get acquainted with each other ? We had a good time at our reception, too, didn ' t we? Among our money raising schemes was the sale of candy, sandwiches, and ice cream. Also the Japaneze Bazaar which was a great financial success as well as a social time. We had better not tell how much money we do have in. the treasury, for some one might want to borrow some. However, we have a definite plan in view — that is the building of a Y. W. Lodge among the pines on Normal Hill. Here ' s hoping in case our plans do not materialize this year that the following Y. W. C. A. Cabinet and students will reap the benefits of our foundation plans. We are glad of the Y. W. C. A. and the influence it has had on our lives. More than that, we are glad for the Christ who is the Friend of the schoolgirl. May each girl, as she leaves our Alma Mater, know better the meaning of this great friendship, live nearer to her God, and strive to make her life what He would have had it, because of her contact with the Young Women ' s Christian Association.

The President. Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Secretary of Deputation had the privilege of attending the State Convention held at Franklin-Marshall College, Lancaster, Pa. The mentioned officers attending the convention were greatly inspired to carry on the Y. M. C. A. work. Upon their return various reports were given in the hearing of all the Y members. The new school year began September 9, 1925. The members of the Cabinet returned early to help and direct the Freshmen and give them a hearty wecome. From the beginning of the year many different diversions have been provided by the Y. M. C. A. members, viz.: The joint Y. W. and Y. M. reception for new students, motion pictures, outings, the annual Y dance, pool and checker tournaments and our weekly Thursday evening devotional meetings. These various activities strive to promote the mental, moral and spiritual growth of our students. The Y. M. C. A. is one of the major organizations on the campus. This is true because of its definite aim; that of promoting good fellowship — and a deeper interest in life ' s activities. With this thought in mind the welfare of our students is provided for and the ultimate end is a Christian character and better citizens for our commonwealth. In furthering the spiritual work we are fortunate in having a Y Gospel Team. The young men of this team have conducted many inspirational and influential services during the year and we are all of the same accord that it has not been in vain. The Y hut furnishes social recreation and a place for the fellows to spend their leisure moments in a moral environment. In ether words, the Y. M. C. A. is a big brother to the student while he is in school.

Dorothy Capolowitz Faculty Advisor Dean Balch Faculty Advisor Dean Balch rHE PURPOSE of the Emersonian Literary Society is to give training in public speaking, dramatics and debating, and to train its members in the conduct and organization of clubs and similar activities. Believing firmly that we learn only by doing, the membership of this organization has been so limited that each person is assured an opportunity of expressing to the fullest his individual abilities. In this manner no one is slighted, no one is overlooked, but opportunity is afforded for all to experience that pleasure which comes from full and adequate expression of one ' s power ' s Without exception we sincerely believe that we have succeeded in accomplishing all that we aimed at, all that we hoped for and all that any society can or has done. We have often heard, Don ' t let your books interfere with your education used in a joking manner, but if these same words be considered in a serious light they reveal a world of truth. Books are but a small part of our education. Those things that we learn outside of the classroom and in company of our fellows often have a most direct bearing on our lives. Our paramount purpose in this institution is to prepare for the teaching profession, fcr the instruction of the children of our country in such knowledge and usage that society through repeated experiment deems necessary. More and more the schools are called upon to furnish in miniature a replica of our social institutions, to send out children, prepared in the fullest meaning of the wcrd, to take their places as future citizens. Many of the duties of citizenship are taught not by academic subjects, but by various organizations and clubs. The teacher must know how to organize and conduct these clubs if he is to be truly efficient. In the Emersonian Literary Society we have endeavored to give training that will prepare the future teacher along these lines. This experience is gained through actual practice and we consider it one of the special advantages of our society. — Andrew Campbell.

Cornish Faculty Advisor Miss L. Cornish rHREE YEARS AGO a group of Mansfield students, realizing the necessity of a better understanding of the Rural School Problem and a closer relation- ship between the country and the town schools, associated themselves together under the name of the Rurban Club, with the motto: A Square Deal to the Country Child. From the start the idea was popular and the membership soon reached sixty. Now, when the enrollment is below this number new applicants are recommended for election by an Executive Board of the Club. The activities of the organization are legion. The members are encouraged to investigate and report on conditions in the rural districts, meet the teachers of the country schools, and induce them to discuss freely their local problems and possibilities, in every way by personal observation, contact and research, report to the Club the result of their inquiries. At the meetings, various programs are put on, giving the individuals an opportunity to give expression to their talents; debates and discussions are encouraged. This Club enjoys the distinction of having collected and placed at the disposal of the neighboring rural schools the first Traveling Library of Tioga County. This library has been arranged with the greatest care and the books selected with the best interests of the country school at mind. In order to finance this project and expand its variety, an annual theatrical benefit is staged by the members. The Brown Mouse was the last, and we believe the most successful, of these productions. The large and appreciative audience present saw the ideals of the rural school as we conceive them dramatically visualized. Through the co-operative efforts of its members, this enthusiastic and active organization, has just closed the most successful year in its history. — Edson Haven. Page One Hundred Forty three Women ' s Student Council In the Spring of last year the Student Council for the school year, 1925-1926, was elected. The members are as follows: Secretary of Industry, Gertrude Cross. Secretary of Public Service, Harriet McCabe. Social Secretary, Carmen Milliren. President, Bertha Crisman. Recording Secretary, Ruth Terry. Treasurer, Beatrice Geary. At the beginning of our school year 1925-1926 we were notified that circumstances would not permit two of the Council to join us — the Secretary of Industry, Gertrude Cross, and the Secretary of Public Service, Harriet McCabe. The new members elected were: Secretary of Industry, Julia Rogers. Secretary of Public Service, Eleanor Williams. We have worked hard, both to overcome the former difficulties of the association and also to improve the conditions of the school for the girls. Any success that we may have achieved in either field is due to the splendid co-operation of the girls of the school. Our largest project for the year was the purchasing of a new piano for the Girls ' Club House. By the aid of the Fakirs ' Carnival, prompt payment of dues, and generous donations from the faculty we were able to carry out this project. The girls have enjoyed our Gymnasium Socials which have been directed by both the boys ' and girls ' social department. Page One llumhitl Fnrly-lour Mens Student Council rHE STUDENT COUNCIL is no organization of itself. We are members not because it was our desire to belong to such an organization, but because a majority of the student body so desired. The students have placed upon us the responsibility of representing them in self-government. Therefore any regulation which we have imposed, or any penalties which we have inflicted should not bring about enbitterment toward any Council member. We have tried to comply with the demands of our office, and in so doing have carried out the desire of the student body. The plan which was worked out by the previous council, separating ' the men into two groups, was not put into operation this year. We do not dispute that this method was not a good one, still the unfavorable sentiment aroused by it brought a problem before the Council. The only solution was to have a weekly meeting at which all men were expected to be present. These meetings did not become monotonous, as there was something new and interesting at each one. Furthermore we concluded that a few minutes per week spent at a men ' s meeting was no burdensome task for anyone. We have carried this program throug ' hout the year, and believe that it has proved satisfactory to all. This successful year has been brought about only by the hearty co-operation of all men and our Dean, Mr. Balch. The Council is composed of the following: Robert Kellerman, President; Ames Crediford, Vic;- President; Oliver Langdon, Edward Peck, Henry Darrow, Henry Obelkevich and Kentley Jones.

Sherman 7 ' EXT TO DIVINITY no art is comparable to music. The Music Supervisors ' j, J A Club, as the name signifies, consists of all Senior, Middler and Junior students taking the Music Supervisors ' course of study. This club meets bi-monthly to discuss problems of the students who are teaching music in the Model School. The sponsors, Mrs Steadman, Miss Jones and Mr. Myers, very often give talks about their experiences, both past and present, and lend a helping hand in all emergencies. The corresponding-secretary communicates with graduates from this course, requesting them to present their difficult situations from the work mapped out for them. They must organize bands, orchestras, glee clubs and choruses, and supervise the work of the grade teachers in music. By knowing their problems, we as student- teachers can better fit ourselves for the work ahead of us. This is the objective of the club and has been of great benefit to its members. We hope this new organization will continue to thrive in the coming years. With donations from the music facutly, graduate supervisors, relatives and friends this club has established The Robert Cowles Memorial Fund for the aid of worthy students who are financially unable to pay for their music training while attending school. One Ifimtlrrt Forty-six We wish to pause here in the midst of all the interesting details of this book, to reflect upon the pleasant memories of all the sunshine the late Robert Cowles added to the life of this school. Never did he refuse to help when he was asked, and this spirit of willingness, together with his genial good nature, made him one of the most popular boys in Mansfield State Normal School. He was a member of the Middler Music Supervisors class, President of the Dramatic Club, member of the Boys ' Glee Club and Music Supervisors ' Club, organist at Methodist Church, accompanist for men ' s quartet and pianist for The Collegians . As a tribute to his memory the Music Supervisors ' Club has established the Robert Cowles Memorial Fund. This is to be used for the purpose of helping music supervisors who are in need of financial aid. This is the highest tribute we can pay to Bob , and it is thus that we hope to carry on his spirit of helpfulness. OUR TRIBUTE Pa e One Hundred Forty-seven OFFICERS President Dorotha Escott Treasurer Sarah Haag Vice President Laura Canfield Faculty Advisor. .Miss Cornelia Cornish Secretary Christine Robbins T HE PURPOSE of this organization is to interest girls in outdoor plant and anamal life. Meetings oof the club are held twice each calendar month at the Girls ' Club House. New requirements were made this year to provide for those girls who had completed Junior requirements last year. Those girls completing Junior and Senior requirements are entitled to a red letter M . Successful Junior members receive numerals. We have had some interesting and enjoyable times this year. New members were properly initiated at the beginning of the year. They were blindfolded and led to Canoe Camp where old and new members enjoyed a delightful dinner. Among other pleasures the club enjoyed are a Snow Carnival and Taffy Pull. The most successful enterprise the club has boasted this year was The Japanese Tea Room held in Alumni Hall at the time of the Fakirs ' Carnival. We wish the best of success to the Club of 1926-27. — Dorotha Escott. s ' Athletic uiu OFFICERS President Mabelle Jennings Treasurer Mary Clifford Vice President Bertha Crisman Faculty Advisor ... .Miss Lenore Ellison Secretary Anna Kehrli fJTHLETICS IS ONE of the most enjoyable factors of school life. Strong  si] varsity teams form the subject for many a written article, as well as receive praise from the institutions concerned. The purpose of the Girls ' Athletic Club is to further athletics, to inculcate a spirit of good sportsmanship, and to support the school spirit here. A hundred hours a year spent in various sports are required of a Senior before receiving a letter. Numerals are granted to Juniors for one hundred hours ' work. Only those Seniors who meet certain requirements receive a varsity M . A tennis tournament is held every spring, as is a swimming meet. Both Junior and Senior basketball teams were organized this year and lively competition existed in their games with each other. No one can participate in any team compe- tition without belonging to the Athletic Club. Other sports in which hours are accepted are: Skiing, skating, and hockey. Juniors, and incoming classmen, if you are interested in any of the above athletics, and desire to increase the present high athletic achievements of your Alma Mater, join this Club. — Mabelle Jennings. l J iif!i- One lliinihi ' il Forty-eight iris ' OFFICERS President Marguerite Kiess Treasurer Anna Jay Secretary Viola Kolka Faculty Advisor. . .Miss Margaret King THE HIKING CLUB started the year right by taking in about seventy Juniors. This made the club the largest girls ' organization in the school. The Juniors were initiated into the club last September and were then allowed to form a Junior Club. Members of the Senior Club who hike 250 miles during their Senior year are awarded an M on a black background with an H placed above the M . Juniors who hike 250 miles are awarded a numeral. Business and social meetings are held at the Club House every two weeks. It is the common complaint that the modern girl is rough and unladylike. I wish we could get one of those hoop-skirt dames of former generations into our Hiking Club. We would show you just where we have more sense than those delicate ladies of the powdered hair and trailing skirts. We have passed into the age of happy, healthy girls; we are enjoying the things that make life worth while. This is where we surpass the girls of yesterday. Juniors, it is your duty to keep the club going, so start out right by having a larger membership next year. We wish you the best of luck and hope that hiking will help you reach the goal of happiness and success. — Marguerite Kiess. OFFICERS Vice President ....Grover Worthington President Manford Lloyd Sec-Treasurer Amos Crediford (%jl HIS CLUB was organized in 1922. Mr. Jones, coach of the athletic teams at that time was its originator. The Charter Members of the club consisted of eight men who had earned a letter in one of the major sports at that time. All ex-let f er men automatically became honorary members. Since that time the club membership has grown very rapidly until now there are twenty-six active members in the school. The purpose of the club is two-fold: (1) to promote general athletic welfare; (2) to develop in its members a conscious sense of personal responsibility in school and athletic betterment. Some of the annual functions of the club are: Club Initiation, M Club Dance, and the presentation of letters and gold footballs to men who deserve such honor and reecognition. A wearer of a letter or gold-football has something of which to be proud, and above all has the lasting memory of the athletic games in which he has participated. The only method of financing this organization is by means of a Tag Day. Our Tag Day this year was on the day of the Cortland-Mansfield football game and was a huge success. We wish to take this time to thank all those who helped to support us at that time. — Manford Lloyd.

This year our time has been divided between art appreciation and practical meetings. During the first semester our club joined the American Federation of Arts through which we have had some very interesting as well as educational reading material. The members of the club spent many enjoyable hours making relief plaques, the results of which were pleasing. The largest project which the club undertook this year was the production of the Living Pictures. Just how successful these were may be judged by the fact that some of the audience coming in as a picture was being posed, remarked: That is a beautiful original. I wonder where they will place the ' Living Picture ' . The second semester the following projects were carried out: leather work, basketry and tie dying. The Club took in about forty new members, making a total enrollment of eighty. For the first time in the history of the club young men were admitted. We hope that the success of the club will continue to increase in proportion with the increase in membership and talent. Domicilian Club OFFICERS President Julia Rogers Secretary Helen Kibbe Vice President Irene Lord Treasurer Florence Lord ( Tr HE HOME ECONOMICS girls organized the Domicilian Club early last fall, 1925. The purpose of the organization is to develop initiative and individ- uality; to recognize Heme Economics in the light of the new vision of education as a factor in social evolution; to realize that the highest good is attained in life through service; and to urge future teachers to consider the trend of events and keep abreast of the times. The club meets once a month. It is planning a public assembly program or play and expects to undertake some project work. It has become affiliated with the American Home Enonomics Association.

Acting is but the sincere portrayal of truth — a sincere response to thought in feeling. The art of the theater is a collaboration of the brains and hands of many persons. A great many factors go into the making of a successful dramatic production. Recognizing this fact, a band of earnest workers organized the Expression Department into the Mansfield Dramatic Club — The Mansfield Masquers. This society does not essentially desire actors as a result of the development of the dramatic instinct, but more appreciative human beings whose horizons have been broadened, whose store of knowledge has has been increased, whose taste has been cultivated. Operating under the four depai-tments — Acting, Costumes, Scenery- Art, and Publicity, the society has endeavored to make the study of dramatic art, a living, vital thing. By its choice of plays, it has attempted to create a desire for better thiings in literature and life. Through individual and collective instruction, study and production of plays, Mansfield Masquers has endeavored to develop the power of self-expression, to give a personal interest in social relationships, a greater appreciation of humanity with its possibilities and limitations, and a desire for the good and beautiful things in life. Mansfield Masquers measures its success by the effort put forth by each individual and not the display of a few persons. This society is preparing for the. great art of living by emphasizing the great lessons of team- work and forbearance. The badge cf the organization is earned through the successful appearance of the individual in one production of the year or an equivalent amount of work which is vitally necessary for the production of the play. Mansfield Masquers has co- operated with the Athenaean Literary Society, Art and Rurban Clubs in their dramatic productions of the year. Formal initiation for the purpose of bestowing pins follows the production of the plays. Mansfield Masquers has a vision of good drama, intelligently studied and realistically interpreted and produced. The society attempts to bring about the desired ends by the serious study of the drama at the bi-monthly meetings. History modern tendencies of drama, actors and plays are discussed; readings and plays given, — the latter being coached by members of the society. Two one-act plays, The Florist Shop by Winfred Hawkridge and The Other One by Arthur Ketchum, were produced October 31st. The society endeavored to show through these productions, the complete unity of structure, and singleness of effect of the one-act play and its right to the claim as a definite literary and artistic form of drama. Page One Hundred Fifty-five THE FLOWER SHOP Eleanor Rees, Eleanora Fisher, Myrle Lee, Hazel Van Horn, Anthony Shelinski, Kathryn Cooper, Edward Dorsett, Julia Rogers, Thelma Overpeck. Seventeen, Booth Tarkington ' s play of youth, springtime and romance, was produced by the society February 12th. Every member of the cast and society put forth splendid effort, thus making the play worthwhile. Each member was one in heart and scul with the aims and desires of the organization, w.thou 1 which the vision of good drama could not have been realized. Other one-act plays and skits were studied and produced — thus completing the year ' s dramatic program. The year has been successful because of the splendid co-operation on the part of all departments of the school with the dramatic department and the democratic, helpful feeling existing between the members of the society themselves. We wish to thank everyone who has in any way contributed to the succeess of Mansfield Masquers . We wish to especially thank Dr. Florence Williamson and Mr. Fred Brooks for their kind advice and helpful work. They have helped us in decisions, arranged and planned endless details and have been true friends to the organization. To all future Masquers we wish to extend greetings, and best wishes for a happy successful year.

MINSTRELS 5 Something different in the line of minstrel shows. That is what John F. Myers, our director, started out to accomplish. Did he do it? Ask anyone of the eager mob who filled Alumni Hall to overflowing Friday, November 13th. The setting of the show was a court room in which astonishing information was imp arted in regard to a breach of promise suit. The production was interlocked with many snappy songs and humorous dialogues. In all it was an hour and a half of clean, side-splitting diversion. Miller, Smith, Jones, Dolbear, Strait, and Yurkewitch were the principals in making the show a success. The Annual Minstrel Show furnishes the Y. M. C. A. funds to carry on their work in the Y hut. The Y treasury was increased $175 from this year ' s work. The Hut is rapidly showing the effects of this swell in funds. ' ,  ■ One Hundred Fiji) eight THE BROWN MOUSE rHE RURBAN CLUB this year presented the Brown Mouse . This play dealt with the trials of a young- school teacher who was endeavoring to introduce new methods of teaching in a narrow-minded rural community. His ups and downs were portrayed by Walter Urban playing opposite Elizabeth Whitmer, the pretty county superintendent and daughter of the communities wealthiest man, Colonel Woodruff. These two deserve much credit for their work which was admirably done. Of course a tempting little love plot was woven into the story, which added greatly to the interest. The stars were finely supported by the following cast: Colonel Woodruff Charles James Members of the School Board: Haakcn Peterson Myrle Lee Cornelius Bonner Melville Davis Ezra Bronson Alfred Lupien Their Wives: Mrs .Bronson Anne Cochran Mrs. Bonner Martha Colegrove Mrs. Peterson Margaret Pritchard Fanny and Newt (Bronson ' s daughter and son).... Mary Hart and John Hendershot A Southern Mountaineer and His Son Andrew Campbell and Carl Newell The County Doctor Harold Odell A College Professor Paul Jones The play was very ably coached by Miss Louise Cornish and Miss Catherine Parker. We as Rurbanites ' ' wish to thank all who co-operated in making this play a success. The proceeds are to be used to furnish two mere traveling libraries for Tioga county. Page One Hundred Fijtv-nine The Fakirs ' Frolic FAKIRS ' FROLIC TONIGHT, was the announcement: in the dining hall. Barnum had nothing on us, and only five cents a ticket, too. Talk about fakirs; school teachers are expeits in that line. We know, because we went, we saw. they conquered. We entered Alumni Hall through tier upon tier of doughnut, cider and ice cream mongers. Their crys of Come and try ours were blended together in the finest rhythm. When the inner man was satisfied we walked through the museum of Fine Arts, the Chamber cf Horrors and stopped for a time in the Chinese movie show and the playhouse of monologue. Up stairs we wended our way fcr the greatest treat of the evening, an operetta given by the music supervisors and A Ride on the Erie presented by the Dramatic Club. Then as the gala affair closed at a stated hour, we adjourned to the jitney dance at the gym. The Red and Blacks entertained us royally, and tired but happy we called it a glorious evening all around. The proceeds were used to purchase a piano for the girls club house. The Junior Frolic rHE MOST SUCCESSFUL Junior dance in the history of this venerable institution, was held in the gymnasium on the afternoon of February 27th. It was the first prog ' -am dance ever attemnted by the Juniors, and by splendid co-operation it was far beyond the expectations of the people in attendance. Unexcelled playing by the Red and Black Serenaders gave the affair a completeness seldom found at an undergraduate dance. The interior was transformed into a remarkable semblance to Fairyland by a wonderful blend of seven colors, potted plants and heavily curtained windows. This made possille mconlight dancing, which was a great success. Delicious refresh- ments were served after a very excellent program and pleasantly surprised both visitors and the school Congratulations were poured on the Juniors from all sides, and the afternoon will long be remembered as one of keen enjoyment and a milestone in Junior progress. Mr. Brooks and Mrs. McKinney aided materially in the successfulness of the dance and too little praise has been accredited to them. The Juniors of 1926 may well be proud of the Frolic put on by the ! r own indust-y, combined with enthusiasm and resourcefulness. It is hoped that oncoming Juniors will keep up the standard set by the class of 1926, thereby showing the capabilities of a Junior in college. — Br ' tton Davis. Page One Hundred Sixty rHE MIDDLER HOP was held in the Normal Gym ' ' Saturday afternoon, March 20, frcm 2 to 6 o ' clock. Over two hundred fifty students, faculty and friends attended. Music was furnished by the local Red and Black Sere- naders. The large hall was attractively decorated with pot flowers, streamers and colored balloons. From the balcony colored spotlights were inter-changeably reflected upon the well filled floor. A spectacular feature of the dance was the balloon-grab at which all obtained souvenirs of an event long to be remembered. During a short intermission all enjoyed the selections rendered by the school male quartet. At this time, also, refreshments consisting of punch and Easter cakes were served. A great deal of credit is due the class president, Grover Worthington. his cabinet, the decorating committee, Mr. Brooks and all others who contributed toward making the event a successful one. — E. L. B. T WAS A BEAUTIFUL SPRING EVENING. The boys and girls of Mansfield Normal ' s Senior Class, Alumni, and their guests were filling the gym to capacity. Everyone seemed excited and was eagerly looking forward to a good time. As we entered the hall the most beautiful decorations were apparent. The color effect of blue, pink and white was very appropriate for Spring and much credit is due Mr. Brcoks, the superintendent of grounds and buildings, for the large part he played in the arrangement of details. Some outstanding features of the decorations were the dolls which were cleverly arranged in swings; the pagoda porch trimmed wth flowers, for the orchestra, and the April shower of confetti. The Red and Black Serenaders furnished their usual type of fine music. The program was very well given and enjoyed, while the refreshments were voted the best ever, consisting of chicken sandwiches with lettuce and mayonnaise, fruit salad and lemonade. The occasion was a success, thanks to the Prcm Committee, the officers and members of the class. May the Senior Proms of future years continue to be as enjoyable. CARL F. NEWELL. Page One Hundred Sixtv-one y. M. C. A, Dance A CCLAIMED to be the best and certainly one of the most pleasurable ft events of the year given for the Y. M. C. A. members was its dance on February 5th. The dance was given in the Y hut, which was beautifully decorated in blue and white. The music was furnished by Holle v an ' s Collegians and it was fine. They certainly aided in making the party a success. Refreshments were served and a short program was given. We shall never forget the elimination contest. The occasion was a success, thanks to the committee in charge. May the Y. M. C. A. Cabinet of 1926 and succeeding cabinets do as well. At this time the success and beauty of this year ' s opera are still a matter of conjecture; for it will not be produced until after this bock is published. Any production is, however, sure to be a success under the wise direction cf Mrs. Steadman. The opera chosen for this year is The Bohemian Girl by Michael W. Balfe. Fred Ringrose, Donald Watson, Howard Squires, Huber Howell. Misses Rachel Jones and Euleta Bunnell are taking the principal roles. They are supported by an excellent chorus and there is promise of beautiful scenery. There will be two productions of the opera and a dress rehearsal for the Juniors. From all accounts the opera should be a brilliant attraction during our Commencement Week. Li The Art Club was responsible for the presentation of this unique and enjoyable program. Twenty pictures by master artists were chosen to be posed by living models With the aid of gilt frames, behind which the models posed, a decidedly real effect was obtained. The pictures which impressed the writer most were The Sistine Madonna. The Blue Boy, and The Lndian and the Lily. Other pictures were equally good. The Music Department aided greatly in the production because they sponsored the fine musical numbers which accompanied many of the pictures. Two feature numbers of the program were the Minuet and The Dance of the Nymphs. Miss Wheeler and her helpers are to be congratulated greatly on the finish and beauty of this program. Page One Hundred Sixty-two Alumni Notes All the world ' s a stage, And all the men an women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances — This quotation from Shakespeare may be aptly applied to the brief careers of the students at M. S. N. S. or at any school. The scenes have rapidly shifted and the cast of players has repeatedly changed since the first actors appeared in the early Sixties. They receive the glamour of f he spotlight in the center cf the stage today and disappear tomorrow while others take their places, forgetting their prede- cessors in a short time, with the careless manner of youth. It is deeply interesting to note the various professions that our graduates have taken up and it gives us a thrill of pride to learn that such a large number have not only succeeded, but attained the top of their particular field of endeavor. In whatever life work they have selected — medicine, surgery, ministry, law. teaching, coaching, professional 1 aseball, politics, dentistry, army. etc. — our graduates have upheld the noble ideals and fine moral principles, inculcated into the very filler of their being, during the few years spent at their Alma Mater. Hundreds of Alumni pay their school a fine tribute by sending their children, grandchildren or near relatives to Mansfield and encouraging others to come. A large percentage of this year ' s Junior class admitted they came on the advice of some Mansfield graduate who warmly recommended this institution to them. The Alumni body in turn look with pride and hearty approval upon the rapid strides that Mansfield has taken in the educational world during the past few years. The possibility and nearing probability of Mansfield ' s becoming a four year college strikes a responsive chord in the breasts of the Alumni and they are one and all proud to say- I am an Alumnus of that school. It would be obviously futile to attempt doing more than briefly mentioning the whereabouts of a few of the more recent graduates, whose names are among the thousands on the Alumni roll. Therefore, the members of the graduating classes of the last decade receive the most attention in the following partial record: At the beginning of Gov. Pinchot ' s talk to the assembly gathered in Alumni Hall last fall, a fine tribute was paid to Mansfield Normal. He said that more former students from this institution were in his cabinet than from any other school. The men to whom he referred were: Judge G. Woodruff, Attorney General; Hon. Joseph J.

I ' u r One Ihimlrt-it Seventy-two How applicable to this place are the words, There ' s music in the air, Where ' er you walk you can hear it, in rainy weather or in fair; Any day you can hear a poor junior warble when walking along the Arcade, I bad a little pony , some tones higher than for which his voice was ever made. I ' m afraid if the said pony should ever come to life. He would promptly again die of sorrow that his master had come to such a plight. Perhaps you go up on Normal hill to meditate upon the beauties of spring, Oh! what are those high shrill sounds which upon your eardrums ring? Is it a message from Mars or simply a cricket chorus? Which can be heard at this time of year in any swamp or forest; Again it comes and you exclaim. Ah me. It is only some poor music student trying to reach high C. On Saturday morning in the Library you are enjoying a good book; When suddenly you jump to your feet and wildly around you look; Crash! Bang! again it comes and you begin to shake, Is it the building falling down, or a playful little ear+hquake? But you feel Miss Doane ' s eyes on you and you are ashamed of your action. When you realize the noise was simply the Junior High band at practice. At lunch in the dining room you are about to eat. When a musical sound upcn your hearing beats. Can it be that they now provide an orchestra to play, So that you will not mind the hash, beans and oatmeal from day to day? Then you place at your plate and wildly for your spoon you grope, For you have just realized it is Monday and the menu is soup. — Emily Campbell. Page One Hundred Seventy-four V Dr. Hank Cane-LXD., NUT., How often have we been told, look before you leap ? Did we heed the admonition ? We did. And where d.d it get us V We are still where we were when we began, we haven ' t made any progress at all. We looked before we leaped, and someone leaped before us. Perhaps the wise men who originated the saying weren ' t so wise after all. Listen ;: One summer, several years ago, I spent my vacation at a little lake in the mountains. I was walking along the shore one day when shrill, piercing, watery cries for succor smote my ears. I ran to the edge of the dock, from whence came the sounds, and saw there, struggling in the water, almost exhausted, a maiden. I was about to leap to her rescue when I recalled the old adage look before . I stopped and looked to determine whether or not she was pretty, and if she were worth saving; and while I looked another leaped before me. He saved the girl . She was very pretty, and soon they were married, although her savior was a homely little runt. And that, children, is the reason why I am single today. I looked before I leaped. Moral: If you look before you leap, someone will leap before you. I thank you for your kind attention. Good afternoon. COPYRIGHTED IN GREAT BRITAIN, UNITED STATES AND MASSACHUSETTS. HAROLD LLOYD, ' 27. as tii Though by the decree of Fate thou art deprived of wealth, fame and fortune — yet one true Friend remaineth — I pray thee be content. The value of friendship cannot be estimated. The knowledge of the binding cords of sympathy existing be- tween two hearts will illuminate the dark paths of sorrow with a divine halo and bring to the weak, broken spirit a consolation, which is priceless, and the fevered brow of pain, is soothed with a caress of peace. Cherish therefore the love of thy friend as a miser covets gold. Yea, of much greater value is thy friend ' s confidence. To keep thy Friend thou must prove thyself worthy. Avoid all thoughts of envy or malice as thou wouldst avoid the fangs of a deadly serpent. Even more dangerous are such thoughts, for their presence may bring bitterness and contention. Guard well the words of thy mouth, lest these serve as a two-edg - ed sword to sever in twain the golden cords. Be ever willing to bestow deeds of charity and kindness as opportunity is afforded. Let the sweet perfume of love and purity radiate from person, word and deed that thy presence may ever be as welcome as a sunbeam pouring into a dungeon. Be mindful always of that the greatest principle of life: Whatsoever thou would that men do to thee, do thou also to them. And friendship shall be thine forever. EDSON HAVEN, ' 26. Page One Hundred Seventy-five Midnight Trage Silence reigned and darkness, utter darkness. The stillness, reminiscent of the grave, was accentuated by the heavy and oppressive atmosphere. Outside, thick and ominous clouds veiled effectively the feeble light of the midnight stars. Suddenly, without warning, a groan, low and indistinct, vibrated through the Stygian blackness. It was repeated, once, twice, like the cry of a human soul in pain. The last sound died away and stillness, the same oppressive stillness ruled again. But not for long, the moaning cry was repeated, the same low, terrifying cry of anguish and despair. What could it mean? Hark! a rustl e, a clanking of chains, a movement in the gloom. Could this be a spectre come to haunt the living? Some prophet of disaster and destruction? The rustling continued, weird and ghostly in the darkness. With each passing minute, the movement of the unseen something became more violent, more agitated, until — Bang! A deafening crash echoed and re-echoed through the chamber followed by a hoarse shout. Was it of anger, terror or dispair? Someone, something struggled to speak. At first the sounds came faint and unintelligible. At last out of the meaningless jargon came these words, Confound that narrow bed. ANDREW CAMPBELL, ' 26. Augustus Smith I wish to transplant your thoughts, from the alleged modern methods of the present day and its products, to the biography and futuristic conception of a child in a fabulous era two thousand years from now, namely, Augustus Smith, born in the year 2997 A. D. on the northeast side of the leading city in the south pole, Arkustool. Augustus Smith came into this world early in life, endowed with many of the heritages, both physical and mental that are usual in the case of the male species. Somewhere back in the age of electricity a group of well-meaning ancestors had started a better baby campaign, and Auggie in the year 2977 A. D. was a brilliant perfect and superb specimen of this super-ultra way of breeding. He could speak six languages, solve kindergarten algebra, compete with the best athletes, drive a tramaplane, sheik the flappers, as the ancients would say, and Auggie accomplished these feats at the age of two years. And so, before his parents died, as they always do, since there is no need to protect their versatile offspring, they had predicted a marvelous future for him. Auggie spent his youth in learning the ins and outs, and ups and downs of aerial laws and highways or how to live a healthy life in an aeroplane. He had been apprenticed or loaned out to a highly redoubtable tramaplane manufacturer, which you may remember had taken the place of the Henry Ford, and the turtle like Lizzie, and ether good cars which you may find in museums. But as the years advanced and Auggie had attained the age of ten, he had only become a partner in the tramaplane industry and could barely count his paltry savings in woefully small millions. The predictions concerning him had fallen flat, his I. Q. was only 480, just a little above the average, and others less fortunate than he were showing him the way to success. Auggie ' s goal had been Ruler of the universal court which had started when all the ancients had banded together, after a small feud, into the League of Nations. Although he struggled titanically, Auggie forged ahead very slowly, his gold was worth little to him because some accursed chemist had succeeded in making that element from lead. His small dividends of the firm netted him a measly million Page One Ilnmlreil Seventy-six dollars a month, just enough to sustain his brains to working point. Auggie lost weight rapidly and at the age of twelve only weighed 250 pounds, a mere skeleton. And at this stage Auggie couldn ' t have taken a prize in a beauty contest were he the only one entered. At the age of thirteen Auggie changed his profession and became an expert at solving the hieroglyphics of the now obsolete bed-time stories. Through this experience he toured the world, even going into the wastelands of North America, where once had ruled a great nation, astounding the intellects with stories of the skillery-skallery alligator and the big bad wumpas, for these were the stories the ancients had delighted in. Tiring of this oratory, Auggie changed his attention to criminology, and he devised a means of execution that was marvelous, revolutionizing capital punishment by dipping the criminals head in a bucket of water three times and pulling it out twice. Then came a sad blow to his people. When at the heieght of his glory and fame, Auggie applied for admission to the booby-hatch, the only remaining institution of a lost civilization. He remained there till his death in 3012 A. D., sorrowing and obsessed with the awful blow that had come to him when he unearthed the fact that there was no Santa Claus. And now gentle listeners, do not let your children come to a similar fate, but inform them of the things that every child should know. Give them a chance to prove themselves of which poor Auggie was robbed. BRITTON DAVIS, ' 28. Sunset in Sprin A hard day ' s wcrk was nearly done. After suffusing the earth below all day with its life giving rays, the sun sank slowly into the west. But before it disappeared it cast forth a heavenly-mellow glow, with different tinges of color, over the Normal building. Many of the students paused to watch this wonderful yet rare sight, paused to drink in all the magic coloring that thrilled their hearts. The clouds in the sky were diffused with different colors that the sun seemed to give forth. Some were of rich ruby red, others of a pale yellow topaz, and still there were those that had rich shades of coloring that baffled every attempt of the naked eye to solve their mystery. Slowly and majestically it sank until now one could see its bottom rim touching the topmost mountain. Watching from the Normal one could see that the vallev below already was darkened by the mystic twilight which follows so closely upon the heels of the sun. But the Normal buildings were as yet lighted by the sun for they perched grandly on the side of the hill. The wonderful song birds could be seen flying swiftly to their nests seeking their young before darkness overtook them. The teeming insect life ceased its Song of Life when the mystic minute arrived. Then slowly as if marshaling all its forces, the sun sank gently over into the beyond, leaving behind its colors and reflections in the clouds. Quietness then cast its spell for twilight was here. Hypnotiic in itis influence it enthralled the senses until some daring insect uttered Katy-did. The spell broken, the students moved to their respective duties while one more poetic than the rest murmured The day is done and the darkness Falls from the wings of night, As a feather is wafted downward From an eagle in his flight.

For different reasons none of these has endured. This seems strange for surely Mansfield has need of a school journal the same as any other institution; certainly she has the talent and resources to initiate and perpetuate one. The Normal has been steadily growing, larger and larger, better and better, until it is now on the verge of becoming a Teachers ' College. Yet, despite this growth and enlargement, nothing but distant plans appeared for a school publication. Many students desired it, many had active schemes for its creation, but unforeseen difficulties arose as barrier to progress. Nineteen twenty-five came and passed, yet nothing definite was accomplished. At this point the Emersonian Literary Society took up the problem, believing that such a project would be entirely within its aim and purpose. Many stumbling blocks were encountered, financial and otherwise, but these were overcome through the assistance of the other clubs and organizations. Now we have as a result of these efforts, THE FLASHLIGHT . Although it is small and imperfect, we are anticipating the time when it will represent in full our Alma Mater. May this spark of literary endeavor kindle the desire for a bigger and better paper in the coming year.

Our team of 1925 lived up to every phase of these ideals. Although we did not win all the games, the undying spirit of our team made the season a very successful one. From the game with Wellsboro Independents to the game with Bloomsburg, they played clean, hard-fought games. Their conduct and treatment of other teams brought the most favorable comment from the schools we played. Much credit is due the bone crushers or shock troops . They bore the brunt of the practice and received little glory. Taking everything in consideration, S. N. S. had a team of which to be proud, for the glory they brought the school, not only in the games won, but in the gentlemanly conduct wherever they played. Pare One Hundred Eighty The Games MANSFIELD— 25 WELLSBORO— Mansfield opened her season by giving the Wellsboro Independents a crushing- defeat. From the first it was apparent that M. S. N. S. had the stronger team. The Independents were composed of former college men, with the pick of the High School, but were unable to stop the rushes of Kellerman, Lloyd and Hill. The Mansfield linesmen opened holes big enough to drive Mack trucks through. Our backfield made good use of the holes and the game ended 25-0. Kellerman, Lloyd, Hill, Odell and Mudge starred for Mansfield. MANSFIELD— 12 LOCK HAVEN— 6 Mansfield went to Lock Haven with a determination to win. The game was clean and hard-fought. The Red and Black players proved their superiority in all points of the game. Every player showed the true Mansfield spirit of being a gentleman on or off the field, for which the Lock Haven coach in a letter to Coach Russell commended them. Kellerman and Alden were out of the game because of injuries. Captain Lloyd, Hill, and Hancock starred for the Red and Black. MANSFIELD— 6 KEYSTONE— 10 Keystone came to Mansfield with one of the best football teams in the history of the school. The game was hard fought from start to finish. Captain Lloyd not only starred in his brilliant plunges and end runs, but he showed the fighting spirit that never says die . Mansfield scored its touchdown in the first five minutes of play when Odell blocked a punt which rolled over the goal line and was covered by Mansfield. M. S. N. S. failed to prove the goal. Keystone scored a touchdown and a field goal from a drop kick. The Mansfield stars were Burr, Odell, Lloyd, and Hill. MANSFIELD— 6 DICKINSON— 32 M. S. N. S. went to Williamsport to meet the Dickinson Seminary. Dickinson had a strong team, as usual, and an exceedingly muddy field, which was net improved by the steady drizzle of rain. After the first play all players looked alike. Dickinson ' s excellent interference was the Waterloo of Mansfield. Their line was a formidable wall which could not be broken by our mighty and struggling warriors of the gridiron. The aerial attack puzzled our boys. Mansfield ' s cheering section was small, but Oh, my! Its name was Pep . Every Red and Black man played with grit inside and outside. Page One Hundred Eighty MANSFIELD— 38 OSWEGO— Oswego came to Mansfield with flying- colors and an excellent record, but Mansfield was determined to repeat the victory of last year. The first half called for much grit and quick playing for our knights to carry the pigskin over the line three successive times, scoring 20 points. In the third quarter Oswego gave away under the onslaught of our backs, until in the fourth quarter M. S. N. S. put in most of the second team. The Oswego boys were every bit excellent sports and true gentlement. A greater feeling of good fellowship between the schools came into being because of this game. MANSFIELD— 3 CORTLAND— 6 The Cortland game was heralded as the big home game of the season. Cortland ' s reputation was widespread and they lived up to it. The game was hard fought and very rough. The teams were very evenly matched, except in weight, Cortland being the heavier. Early in the game M. S. N. S. scored a field goal and hopes flamed high. A number of our players were seriously injured and in the third quarter Cortland scored. Mansfield recovered and were in striking distance a number of times, but lost the ball. The game ended 6-3. MANSFIELD— 7 BLOOMSBURG— 13 Mansfield journeyed to Bloomsburg for the last game of the season. The team was weakened because of the absence of Alden and Obel from the line. Bloomsburg used the Western style of playing and at first threw our fellows offside and baffled them. The game was hard-fought and Bloomsburg earned every- thing they got. The feature of the game was the 90-yard run made by Hancock with Keller- man for interference. r, fs Manford Lloyd, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 160. position halfback. Manford, the captain of our team during the 1925 season, has been elected to the same position for the 1926 season. We, as a team, are glad that he is to be our captain. He was a backfield man of merit. Sy played for all that was in him and his wonderful spirit brought the team out of many slumps. Manford, we take off our hats to you as one of the best players ever sent forth to represent the school. Page One Hundred Eighty-two Clinton Smith, height 5 feet 11 inches, weight 230, position guard. Fat Smith is a Nicholson High product, and on the line he is nearly as substantial as the Nicholson viaduct itself. Because of his size and his steam roller like power, we was a bulwark of strength in the center of our famous line and well the opponents were aware of this. Since he was the largest griddler on the squad is no sign that he was the slowest. Mansfield ' s chances for a record-breaking eleven next fall are enchanced in the fact that Fat will return. William Hancock, height 5 feet 10 inches, weight 155, position fullback. Bill came to us from Penn State last winter. Being of the nervous type, people didn ' t know how to take him. Football season came and it was then Coach Russell uncovered one of the hardest line plungers and one of the best snarer of passes that ever donned a Red and Black uniform. Bill has the honor of making he longest run of any Normal player in the state by covering 95-yards for Mansfield ' s only touchdown against Bloomsburg. Russ Bull A.lden, height 6 feet 2 [ ' z inches, weight 195, position tackle. The young giant from Nicholson received the nickname of Bull in the Cortland game because of his terrific charging and tackling. His p laying throughout the season was surpassed by no man on the squad and he is considered one of the best linemen that M. S. N. S. ever produced. His football training of previous years, coupled with his cool-headedness and ability to figure out our opponents ' plays, made Bull one of Mansfield ' s most valuable grid men. As a reward he was given one of the coveted gold footballs and an official M . Russ intends to go to Illinois next year. If he does we are sure they will develop another Red Grange. Eddie Hill, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 155, position quarterback. Eddie came to us from Wellsboro. His former experience gained for him a position on the varsity immediately. Possessing all the ability and tactics of a real quarterback, Eddie piloted the team through a successful season. He was a real fighter of the never give up type and a very consistent player. Every game that he played in proved that he was a worthy football representative of old M. S. N. S. Always showing the attitude of a true sport, he will be recorded in the history of M. S. N. S. as one of the most valuable grid men of the 1925 season. Robert Kellerman, height 5 feet 10 inches, weight 165, position fullback. When you see Bob in action en the gridiron, you would never think him the quiet, easy-going fellow he is around school. Conscientiousness and hard work showed itself in practice and games just as in everything else in which he took part. An injury to his knee prevented Bob from taking part in all the games, but when the bruise was healed he came back as strong as ever, resumed his position on the eleven and did his best to make the team a success. He was a clean, hard player and gave one the impression of a football veteran when in fact he had but one year ' s experience. Bob not only excels in football, but in basketball and track as well. Being a senior this year, we will miss him when the, coach calls the roll next fall. Taking him all in all he is — a real pal and team-mate. Page One Hundred Eighty-ihree Howard Burr, height 5 feet 8 inches, weight 160, position end. This light-haired lad hails from Canton. We heard that he did great stuff for Canton High, and we believe all we heai-d after seeing him here. Even though he is short and light, Bucky showed us that he is a real football player His fighting spirit and hard tackling won for him a place among our best ends. Aside from football. Howard is a real man. He is clean-cut and of the type that likes fairness. Being ' that Bucky has two years more, we are expecting big things from him. Harold Odell, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 165, position tackle. Harold hails from little old Mansfield and she may well be proud of this fact. Harold, while a very quiet young man around school, soon teaches his opponents to respect his prowess on the gridiron. In a game he keeps cool-headed and alert — always managing to get in on every play. When the coach sent Harold into a game, he could depend on him to do his best always. He was one of the most consistent players on the team, not only this year, but for the last three years and that means a lot. But now comes the only sad part of this story — Harold graduates next June and thus M. S. N. S. will lose the services of one of her most valuable grid men. Clarence Lord, height 5 feet 11 inches, weight 160 pounds, position end. Squeak , as we all. called him, hails from Nicholson. As he has proven very good in the basketball world, he has also proven as good en the gridiron. He had the fighting spirit to the end, which took him from the scrubs to varsity position as end. Squeak ' s slender form fooled many a man when he hit him. We all wish Squeak the best of luck in future athletics. David Martin, height 6 feet 1 inch, weight 180, position end. Joe hails from Morris, and that tewn can be proud of him. It was a treat to see Joe tear down the gridiron under punts and make spectacular tackles or pull passes from the air. On the defensive or offensive Joe showed stellar ability. At first we were puzzled why Joe made more spectacular plays on the home field than he did on foreign fields, but later we found it was because of a Persons cheering from the sidelines. We regret that Joe is leaving us this year and we wish him good-luck and success. Henry Obelkevich, height 5 feet %Vt inches, weight 160. position left tackle. Obel was an unknown Junior roaming the corridors of South Hall until the first football game. After that he has been known to all the Normal School fans as the hardest hitting tackle Mansfield ever laid lamps on. Obel starred in every game he played and it was largely by his brilliant work that Mansfield gained her victories. A fighter from the first whistle until the game is over, that ' s Obel . Obel will be in uniform again next season. 1 ' nw Our Hundred Eighty-four Leo Allis, Leo came to us from Mansfield High. This was Leo ' s first year at Normal football and he came through with flying colors. Leo played the guard position and could always be depended on. He was a hard tackier, and always kept his opponent guessing as to what he was going to do next. This being his first year we look for big- things from him next year. Leo is as nimble and fast as a jack-rabbit and as powerful as a locomotive. He just tore through the line to get the man with the ball. How he could watch that ball and his opponent is a puzzle, but that must be the secret of his success. Donald Watson, height 5 feet 10 inches, weight 180, position center. Tubby is an Athenian product, and Athens can be proud of him. He was a strong asset to the center of our line. His name does not imply any impediment in his speed, but rather says or means something formidable. Don handles the old potato with apparent ease, and accuracy. On the signal the ball flies from his hands like a bullet out of a gun; always true and accurate. Tubby will be with us next year and we expect him to carry the Mansfield banner forward. Grover Worthington, Grunt , height 5 feet 6 inches, weight 160, position halfback. Grunt is one of our versatile backs . Whether at heme or away, playing under all kinds of conditions, Grunt was always fighting with that bull-dog tenacity. Not once did he offer the white flag of truce when it seemed as though the opponents were abcut to cross the line; his lyric tenor voice many times acted as a stimulant and renewed the fighting spirit of his fellow players. In Grunt ' s veins flows that blood possessed only by the best and truest of sportsmen, by playing the game according to Hoyle. The frotball team of ' 26 will not feel the wants of a halfback for Grunt will be with us. Amos Crediford, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 155, position end. Crediford was the type of player we like to see in action. He was always fighting and playing his hardest. When he tackled, the opponent knew that some- thing hit him. He is leaving us this year. We hope to hear of his work on the gridiron in larger institutions. Creddie knew that success comes as a by-product to application, and he meant to achieve his fame by that route. Earl Mudge, weight 165, position tackle. Earl hails from little old Mansfield. He had proved himself a star on the M. R. H. S. team and when he tried out on the Normal team he showed us that he still lived up to his reputation. Earl was a hard tackier and hard fighter. He doesn ' t know the word licked . Fat will help lead us on to victory next fall. Page One Hundred Eighly-five THE VARSITY BASKETBALL SQUAD Top Row — Martin (Manager). Gamble, Dolbear, Allis. Marvin (Coach). Bottom Row — Kelly, Lord, Brace (Captain), Kellerman, Lloyd. Coach Kimble Marvin Captain Harold Brace Grad. Manager Karl Van Norman Student Manager David Martin ASKETBALL is a game requiring speed and accuracy. How advantageous an accurate pass is when a man is cutting- for the basket! How many games are won through accuracy in shooting baskets! Normal ' s team this year surely did possess these requirements. Time after time, their quick and snappy passing proved their predominance in this department. One glance at the scores will be sufficient to indicate their shooting ability. One item which should not be overlooked is the way in which the members of the team worked together. Coach Marvin showed superiority in the basketball game when he picked Puge One Hiunliril Eighty-six his different combinations. How smoothly each combination worked! Coach Marvin was boss of his team at all times, and the fellows produced real hard work behind him; the results being a State championship team. Coach Kim is to be congratulated on his efficiency. Also are the members of the team who supplemented a champion- ship squad. Only one game was Mansfield on the smaller end of the final tally. Eleven victories were recorded. This in itself is a feat which for some time has not been accomplished. The season ended without a team disputing our rightful claim to the State championship. Keep your eyes on the beys next year. The Qames M. S. N. S.— 19 KEYSTONE— 15 January 9 Keystone came to Mansfield with a fast team, much desiring Mansfield ' s scalp. The game was close from start to finish, keeping the crowd tense with ex- citement. Keystone received the tip-off, but the Mansfield guards were wide-awake, shown by the fact that Mansfield scored eight points before Keystone tallied. Key- stone then came to and ran up six points. The first half ended 9-6. In the second half both sides fouled considerably, which slowed up the game. The game ended 19-15 in favor of M. S. N. S. Kellerman, Lloyd and Gambel starred for the Red and Blacks. M. S. N. S.— 49 LOCK HAVEN— 8 January 15 Our second game was with Lock Haven. The score signifies the type of game, except that Lock Haven showed the highest type of sportsmanship. Fighting to a finish when they knew they could not win. That is the type of teams and players that we admire and like to play. Men who play the game and play it hard whether victory is easy or hope is gone. The two schools feel more friendly toward each other because of the spirit shown in this game. Page One Hundred Eighty-seven M. S. N. S.— 17 DICKINSON— 12 January 30 Dickinson came to Mansfield with a husky looking squad and with intentions of bringing home the bacon. The game was fast from start to finish. Our boys showed themselves to be superior in every way, but the struggle was so hotly contested as to keep the audience continually on its feet. Brace and Lloyd starred for Mansfield. Allis, Kellerman and Kelly did their stuff at guarding, while Lord held down the pivot position; each contributed his share toward our victory. M. S. N. S.— 28 BLOOMSBURG— 15 February 6 Bloomsburg came to Mansfield expecting something easy and received one of the bitterest disappointments of their life, a terrible defeat in which only one field goal was gained. So bitter was this pill that they choked with rage when they swallowed it. Every Red and Black player went into the game with a grim determination to win, and this determination was fully realized. The game would have been the fastest of the season but fouls slowed it up. Kellerman was the high scorer of the game with 13 points, followed by Brace with 12, and Gambel 3. M. S. N. S— 32 KEYSTONE— 43 February 12 Mansfield journeyed to Factoryville to play Keystone. Here she suffered the only defeat of the season. It soon became evident that Mansfield couldn ' t win no matter how good a team she possessed. Keystone showed pocr sportsmanship in their playing However, much credit goes to them because of their splendid playing. We believe that under different circumstances this defeat would have been avoided The work of every Red and Black player was commendable. M. S. N. S— 23 ALUMNI— 19 February 19 An interesting game took place between the old times and our fast varsity. The old timers proved that they had not forgotten the old game. If anything they had improved their fcrm. At the start of the game they nearly swamped the boat bearing the present M. S. N. S. Crew. The score at the end of the first half stood 6-16 in their favor. The faces of the Normal fans pictured nothing but dullness and gloom. The Alumni were true bulwarks for their stalwart and formidable bodies forbade our boys to attempt a safe pass thru their defense. An occasional long shot brought the crowd to its feet. In the nick of time science and youth enabled us to forge ahead to triumph over our noble brothers, the Alumni. It was a sad defeat for them, but a glorious victcry for us. Apparently licked, our boys, with grit and perseverance without equal, fought on. Because of their spirit the laurels of triumph will remain within the portals of our Alma Mater for at least another year. Page One Hundred Eighty-eight M. S. N. S— 34 DICKINSON— 25 February 26 At Williamsport our boys again defeated the strong Dickinson team. The spectacular shooting 1 of long distance shots by Skeeter Brace featured the game. The little forward, for whcm Dickinson had prepared a supposedly safe system of defense, dazzled the spectators by seven beautiful shots before he was put out of the game by the four personal foul route. The whole team played splendid ball and their superiority was evident from the first five minutes of play when they ran up a score of 12-2 on the bewildered Dickinson combination. M. S. N. S.— 24 LOCK HAVEN— 9 March 5 The Mansfield team journeyed to Lock Haven, fully realizing that the game was not a hard one. Lock Haven showed improvement over the game of January 15. Their pass-work was good, but of no avail. Mansfield used all of the nine men of the squad because of the game with Bloomsburg the next night. At the end of the first half the score was 11-8, but in the second half our men held them scoreless, except for one foul. The final score was 24-9. M. S. N. S.— 37 BLOOMSBURG— 34 March 6 The Bloomsburg game! What excitement and thrill those words gave as the students anxiously waited for reports from the game. Mansfield won. Oh, what joy and relief; we are Penna. State Champions. The game from start to finish was one thrilling and hair-raising moment after another. The spectators were gasping for breath all the while. The players fighting with a determination that is always present when big stakes are just ahead, Mansfield gained the lead and kept it but at no safe distance. Pour of M. S. N. S. players were put out on personals, thus creating more suspense for us. Every man bearing the Red and Black standard was a star and helped bring the game to a successful finish, giving Mansfield the State Normal Championship. M. S. N. S.— 31 CORTLAND— 21 March 13 Cortland came to Mansfield with the intention of jarring the crown on the head of the Penna. Champions. The game was fast from the start. A long period of play before either side scored. The game was close, too close to please the fans. Our team showed wonderful guarding ability and Cortland ' s hopes began to fade. During the second half Mansfield crept far into the lead. But Cortland fought to a finish. The game ended 31-21. Kellerman, Brace and Allis did very commendable work. Page One Hunt red Eighty-nine The Players Harold Brace. Forward. Spider is the flashy little forward that has electrified fans many times with his spectacular shooting on the basketball court. For three consecutive years he led the Mansfield High School team in scoring and was high point man on Mansfield Normal ' s championship team this season. Brace scored just as well away from home as he did on his own court. This is the real test of a basketball player. His accurate eye, combined with uncanny ability to sift through the opponent ' s defense, makes him a g-reat scorer and gives him a state-wide reputation. Bayard Gambel, Left Forward. Though handicapped by slight physical build. Bayard easily overcame it by his unstinted effort and his indomitable spirit. At basketball he has no superior, being a forward with speed, judgment and the ability of sinking shots from all angles and all distances. At picking passes and breaking up the opponents ' plays he is unsurpassed. In this most successful of basketball seasons at Mansfield, we can thank Gambel for pulling more than one game out of the fire. When points are needed Gambel will make them. Although it is his first season on the varsity he plays like a veteran. His natural meek, mild manner is attractive. We like him. Robert Kellerman, height 5 feet 10 inches, weight 170, position Guard and Forward. Bob hails from Taylor, a town famous for its basketball teams and good players. Taylor certainly can be proud of Bob. He is by nature a quiet, easy-going gentleman with the finest traits of a real man. His strength of character, clean playing, never say die spirit made him a moral asset to the team. He plays the game of basketball, as he does the game of Life, with the best in him. He is ever in the game fighting to his utmost. We are looking forward to his good work in Schools of Higher Learning. We wish him good luck, and hope that the best awaits him. Clarence I. Lord, height (i feet, weight 150, position Center. Squeak! That ' s what they all call him, but no one can draw the analogy. In fact Squeak makes little noise on a basketball court, but ins f ead is a very smooth and clever player. The first part of the season found him at center, which he held down very creditably. Later in the season necessities arose which called for another forward. Squeak being an all around man was shifted to this position and one of our guards filled the vacancy at center. Squeak ' s pep and undying fight together with his consistent playing, cer- tainly did much toward turning out our championship team. Although Clarence is planning to take up another phase of life, we surely hope that he is back with us next year. Hail Nicholson! She sure does turn out some mean athletes. Page Our Hundred Sinrly Francis Kelly, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 165, position Guard. Kell came to us with the splendid reputation of having been Capt. and star guard of the strong Mansfield High team, runners up for State Champs. He has proved to us that he is still a star guard by holding his man scoreless in seven of ten games. His fast work and timely shots were a great help to M. S. N. S. in winning the State championship. We hope Kell will be with us again next year to help us mould another fast team, but wherever he goes we wish him the best of luck. Leo Allis, Height 5 feet 7 inches, weight 160, position guard. Allis is a newcomer in M. S. N. S. basketball ranks, but he is a veteran at playing the game. Coming from a brilliant team of Mansfield High, Leo proceedeu to continue his versatile work. This stccky player won the admiration of every loyal student by his ability as a defense man. By his exceptional speed he has broken up many a pass and prevented innumerable baskets. Leo is fast and hard to stop on the floor, as well as being able to keep his forward ' s score down. The Red and Black ' s chances of repeating a championship team next year are enhanced by the returning of this natural basketball player and gentleman. Harold Clark, height 6 fet 2 inches, weight 190, position Center. Harold originally hails from Masten Park High School, Buffalo, N. Y. He came to us from Alfred University during the season with an excellent reputation which he upheld. He is a large man, but as nimble as a boy. He always seemed to be in the right place at the right time, breaking up the opponents ' pass work and shooting. We sincerely hope Harold will be with us next year. Frank Dolbear, height 6 fet 1 inch, weight 170, position Center. Frank, a product of Plains, contributed to the championship team. His height gives him an advantage over others. When he went into the game we knew that he was going to do his best in true Mansfield style. Frank is a good student as well as a basketball player. We are glad that he is returning next year and will aid us in gaining the championship again. Manford Lloyd, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 160, position Forward. Lloyd lived up to his reputation as being - one of the fastest men on our squad A good heady player and a good shot. Playing for all there was in him at all times. Besides being a good athlete, Lloyd is a good student and a gentleman. Wellsboro may well be proud of her product, and he is well worthy of praise. Lloyd has another year at Normal and we expect bigger things than ever from him in football, basketball and baseball.

Pace Onr Uumltcd inelv-ltvt) (Stria ' Athlrtira it is Captain Bertha Crisman Manager Mabelle Jennings Coach Lenore Ellison rHE GIRLS had a good team this year, but did not have many opportunities to display their ability. Although only two games were permitted to be scheduled, regular practices were held and the girls came out faithfully. We are one of the few Normal Schools who have an organized team, and for this reason, we should think more of it. The first game was with Wellsboro, the final score being 9-6, in our favor. The defeat of last year was erased by this victory. The game was close and exciting throughout. The Juniors put forth some good material. They showed what they could do by coming out victors in a Junior-Senior game. Besides this, four Juniors were on the Varsity team. From the above, it appears that a strong team will be developed again next year, and we hope they will uphold the good record that has been established. — Mabelle Jennings. I ' upr One Hundred Slnely-jour The Qames WELLSBORO HIGH SCHOOL— 6 MANSFIELD— 9 The first game of the season was with Wellsboro High School on the Normal court, resulting in a victory for Mansfield. The game was exciting throughout, and close guarding on both sides was done, as the score indicates. Davis, Crisman Shaw, and Kehrl: played a great game. The team started the season out g ' ood. Let ' s keep it up. Miss King and Miss Hart refereed. DICKINSON COLLEGE— 41 MANSFIELD— 28 The team journeyed to Carlisle where they played against the strong Dickin- son College team. It was a hard game, and our girls did their best to win, but that isn ' t always possible. The forwards, Crisman and Presit did good work, and when they did break through the close guarding they made the baskets count. Kehrli and Davis worked hard to stop the forwards, but it was almost an impossibility. Overpeck, Kiley and Shaw at center were on the job every minute. The season ended with this game.

H s father was a wheel-wrijht, but Abraham didn ' t like that work so he became pres- ident. One day while he w:is walki ig the railroad tracks he was shot in the back by a man named Sholgosh. This was not a nice thing to do as it is not polite to shoot people. Kiessy — I was just down and had my finger measured for a class pin.

He ' ll starve to death. A load of hay upset in front of a minister ' s house and Urban was work- ing hard to reload it when the minister came out. It being- dinner time, the minister invited him to dinner, at which Urban replied: I don ' t think my father would like it. Oh, he won ' t care, said the minister. Urban consented to come in, but every little while he would exclaim: I don ' t think my father will like it, At last in impatience the minister said: Why in the world will your father care if you stop and eat dinner here? At which Urban replied: My father, he is under that load of hay. Mrs. Steadman (to Gridley and Sarah Bates as they entered the chorus room together) — Hello, Fred, Isee you are going fishing.

Just gaze at me and you can see What that one o ' clock mail has done. I thought I ' d a sweetheart and friends and home, But now it seems I ' m all alone; Would that others might never sail With that awful mob, for the one o ' clock mail. But I was young and friends were false, ' I ' ll write to you often, they said. So I started right there to wait in despair. Oh, Lord! I had better been dead. And this was the start of my fall. From there it was easy to fail; I ' m cynical and I ' m skeptical, Just because of that one o ' clock mail. Said I to myself, I ' ll stay away, I said it with almost a sob; But one o ' clock came and I went just the same To wait in the hall with the mob. One day (I shall never, never forget) As I stood waiting patiently by, A letter was dropped in my own little box, I thought I should break down and cry, With heart all a-flutter, I reached in my hand, I grabbed it with almost a sob — I held it up close and I rushed thru the crowd And out of sight of the mob. With tear-blurred eyes and shaking hands I tore it open and read : Dear Madam — are you interested In our Spring sale. it said. And that was the start of my fall. From there it was easy to fail; I ' m cynical and I ' m skeptical, Just because of that one o ' clock mail. — Jeanne Reedy, ' 27.

Main St. Page Two Hundred Fifteen i Water Is FREE! Why CHARGE For It? It would seem that the time is past for such a plaint, from anyone, but even yet it is heard once in a while. God gave it to us, they say, why make us pay for it. Evidently such people fail utterly to stop and think. It is true that there is an abundance of water. The earth is saturated with it; the streams flowing through and near our cities and towns are full of it, but who could, or would if he could, go get it from the natural sources of supply, and who would be safe in using it if it were procured in that way? No, the thoughtful person will realize at once that such a procedure would be dangerous, if not fatal, and that really there is no just cause for com- plaint at the cost of pure, clear, usable water, brought right to our homes, for our instant use and enjoyment, and that what we are really paying for is not the water, that God has given us, but the service of those who are harnessing it, purifying it, clarifying it, and transporting it to us. Compared with other commodities of an equal or even lesser value, the cost of water is very small indeed. It is simply necessary to sit down and calmly try to figure the cost involved in the preparation of water for use and transporting it to our homes; the engineering talent, the pumping equip- ment, filtration plants, purifying chemicals and machinery; reservoirs and buildings; transportation lines; hydrants; valves; meters; fuel, salaries of workmen, etc., to realize that there is probably no other commodity of so much value, and so absolutely necessary to our welfare, health and happiness, brought to our homes for our immediate use at anything like such a trifling cost.
