1926HH 1926 Edward Jones, another soliolar, Then took up tlie task of leading Pittsburgh Normal into limelight, Larger, larger, ever growing In importance, ever leading Other Normals in their courses, Aided by well-chosen teachers. Then the State Officials gathered, And they truly showed their wisdom, When they chose our present leader, He, the learned George K. Hawkins. Hail our very learned Principal ! Who by everyone is lauded ; Ever first in thought and wisdom, Ever just and fair to others. In nineteen ten, the learned scholars Saw the need for other branches, So our Commerce Course was started, Listed second in all the East. Stately with a lovely campus, Stands our ever-growing Normal, Always loved by all its members. Famous for its rapid progress. All is due to its great teachers, To them all fair praise be given, Ever we, its stately Seniors, Sing its honors far and near. And when asked, of all the Normals, Which is fairest, which is best, We will say that Plattsburgh Normal Far surpasses all the rest. As a seat of higher learning. Harriett E. Lavison.

First of its great educators Was Fox Holden, then Headmaster, Held his office very wisely, For two years he ruled them justly. Eight
