Principal’s Message to the Class of 1921 To the Class of 1921: You enjoy the distinction of having the largest roster of any class in the history of Millersville. May I ask you to consider seriously other avenues of distinction that lie open before you? In almost every school some remark as this may be heard: “He (or she) was a member of the class of . That was a great class.” And then tin speaker | oints with pride to some sons and daughters of the institution who rose above the ranks and brought credit to that class. Not all of you will rise above the ranks. It is not to be expected perhaps not to be desired. But it lies within tin- power of each one of you to reflect credit, though in a humble way, upon your class as well as upon this institution which sends you forth to lives of service. You leave Millersville with the best wishes of the Faculty. Very cordially yours, Charles II. Gordinikr. —16—

Touchstone “Our Alma Mater ” Millersville State Normal School, the oldest Normal School in Pennsylvania, was founded in 1854. Through the citizens of Millcrsvillc and its vicinity, the school prospered and grew under the name of Millersville Academy. 'Pile State soon realized the work which was being done by the school and on December 2, 1857, the State recognized Millcrsvillc Academy as a State Normal School. From 1857 to 1917 the business affairs of the School were managed by a Board of Trustees, elected by the Stockholders and appointed by the Superintendent of Public Instruction. Since February 24, 1917. the school has been owned by the State and is managed by a Board of Trustees consisting of nine persons, appointed by the State Board of Kducation. Within this last year the course of study of the Normal School has been changed and at the same time the standards of the school have been raised. Millersville is now of College Grade. Black and Gold are the colors which stand for “Our Dear Old Normal.” “Fiat Lux” is our motto. The class of ’21 has endeavored to uphold these to the blue above and though now we leave, we, at some future time, will quote with the poet these lines: “To work awhile, to rest awhile, To visit with good friends— Is part of life, but ah, the dreams That old time memory sends.” 17 —
