p. @. 1 5 3n fHemortam i])entp jFeuering Professor Henry Feuering, an esteemed member of our faculty, departed this life on Wednesday, January the twenty-seventh. He was busy with his classes until noon, and apparently in his usual health, but was stricken with sudden illness before the opening of the afternoon session, and died before the day ended. To be thus active tc the very last was what he himself would most have wished. In September, 1904, Mr. Feuering was admitted to this school as a student, on the strength of testimonials for work done in various German and Austrian gymnasia and universities. He was almost wholly ignorant of spoken English when he entered; yet such were his attainments and power of application that he was graduated in two years at the head of his class. After passing a year as post-graduate student at Harvard University, where he received the degree of Master of Arts, he was appointed to the chair of modern languages in this institution, and held the position until his death. He was a man of extensive scholarship, and a superior teacher. His sense of honor was keen, his ideals high and noble, his aims and ambitions singularly unworldly, and in his outlook on life his eyes were open to the eternal values. Success with his classes is not the only measure of such a teacher ' s worth. A. N. H. Static TSeatrfce Ijnise Worrell Miss Marie Beatrice Huse Sorrell, of Morrisonville, N. Y., a member of the class of 1915 and of the Clionian Fraternity, passed away on February 7, 1914. She had participated in the first festivity, the mid-year dance, given by the Junior Class, which was held at the Normal School. There she contracted a cold which developed into pneumonia, her illness lasting only four days. Miss Sorrell ' s keen intellect and pleasing personality had made for her many friends during the short time she was with us.

Elizabeth made a record for herself in High School, and has not lost any laurels since entering Normal. It was feared that her desire to roller-skate might interfere with her scholarly attainments, but she has proved that the two may go hand in hand. Nancy is as true as Nancy is srveet. Muriel Barton Hague, N. Y. Troy Conference Academy; Delta Agonian. Nancy is one of the capable girls in the General Course, in spile of the fact that much of her spare time is devoted to Tommy. She has a beauty of her own. Laura E. Bosworth Mooers, N. Y. Mooers High School ; Delta Clionian. Laura has been a hard worker. She is noted for her inde- pendence of thought and nimblcness of tongue, and has the distinction of having written what the majority of Normal students consider the most interesting oration of the year.
