Preface O R'U.V UXDKKSTAN!) the work connected with getting out a book like this, a person must help do it. Although wc began the work late and under difficulties, we feel that we have succeeded in producing a book of which wc can be proud. To begin with, onlv a small sum per member was allowed for our expen-hrough the good work and energy of our advertising editor, one hundred dollars was added to this amount and thus ur financial difficulties were met. If the panels containing your pictures do not seem artistic enough, please remember that we saved seventy-five dollars lor you by mounting them ourselves. If you like the campus scenes, go tell Doctor and Mrs. Malt-by so: for through their kindness in lending us the plates, you got them free of expense. If you are disappointed in not seeing the facility pictures, scold them: for they refused to have a group picture taken and money was lacking for individual portraits. If you enjoy any of the literature, let the people who wrote it know it. It may encourage them to help some other bewildered magazine staff In fact, if von like your book, tell n and we shall feel amplv repaid for all our efforts. We have done our liest to produce all the most interesting things with the means on hand, and we surely wish to thank all those who have aided us in any way.

And o’er the highway ami the meadows gaily trudged our weary way As we neared the campu the retiring bell rang loud, And at the halls, the teachers' smile greeted all the crowd. THE PARTY The festive Senior party, for which we long had planned. Took place in the gymnasium Senior and (-‘acuity on hand, When we arrived at the scene of action, with beans that were light and gay. Wc received httlr valentines to remind us of the ilay. A startling alarm wa given when our pleasure had rightly begun. That the Junior at our expense were slyly having some Cun. All our ice cream the rogues had stolen and were greatly enjoying ihe game When thr Senior boy- ru-hed out and rudely interrupted the same. Speaking, reading, music and a prophecy of the class Made up our entertainment, and quickly the time did pass. Till more Ice erram arrived, and we did our amusement forsake. To arrange ourselves in groups and of refreshments to partake. Two priies were awarded In an interesting contest. At which the baby pictures of our classmates we all guessed. Our games wr had resumed when our President u informed That within the neat ten minutes we must all be at the Dorm Wc are now anticipating a joyous spring-time party.

The management anil cooking writ the wonder of thr land, Thr servant all were (iKtty girl , Ihr matron (imply great. Ami everything was aid to be the finrat lit the state. Ami in the wondrous boarding ball, where everything wai fine. The food wat such as that on whieh the king and prince dine. They aervrd u� duck and turkey, amt oyrstt r fried and raw, And nice brown juicy beefatenk. the beat you ever «s� . They gave u� meat three timer a day, roa«t lieef. veal chop and ham. And good freth bread and butter, apple aauce. and jam. They gave u� gool thick gravy, hottered roll amt cake. And nice, light, tatty ginger bread, like mother lived to make. Their coffee wav delicious, and boiled till it wa� fight, And with gooil thick cream pul into it, «« vimply out of vight They had every kind of pudding, an abundance of preverve . And all the little extra that a high priced cafe verve . We had cake with chocolate icing for every time we dined. I’eacli, apple, mince, ami cu lard pic. ami every other kind. We had all the ice cream we could cat, and um| toouily we fared. And we could always have de� � cn a often a we cared. The price charged wrte low enough, to make a mi er smile. Ami every thing wa� managed well, and in the late t style. And a I � at and frattrd there, for alt that I worth, I counted myvclf a lucky a anyone on earth. Just then I wav awakened by the ringing ol a hell. I rose and was aecotupanird by the giving of a yell. I hurried to the dining hall, to get my morning hath. The hall that we all know about, that get our liard-rarnrd cash. I ate the dainty victual which they serve at morning meal . Such a hard fried sliding pads, as tough a rubber hecli. They had tome beastly compound that the tnarton says wat � teak. And thr t.i trlc « hemlock shaving which wrre labeled Jersey Make. They had bacon from the carca of � omc long lamented thoat, Theft butter was like axle grease, and old enough to vote. The slimy fried iiotatoes that were cold and almost raw. And the liver was so bloomin' tough that it nearly broke my jaw Hie coffee mi like tan bark, and black a any coon. So thick that when I stirred it. it bent my silver spoon. The bread would make a fellow with he never had been born. , ml in the water there was mud enough to raise a crop of corn. The matron wa� all fn cd, the servaots were a Iright. Thr guys ill peeved and polity, and ready for a fight I took a look around the place, then sat in meditation. And thrn I beat my departure amidst the turmoil, for recreation. It was a rude awakening from the dream to good and grand. In which I law thr boarding hall, run hy a master hand. This story teaches us, my friends, whatever be our plight. That dream ate idle mockery, mere visions of the night. A V.

Iiitt als-for an appreciation of g.M.d literature. W ith Mich an end in view the Philomathean Litcrar Society wa brought into existence. Students conic our school, who. although they have little or no training along this line, soon hecome prolicient in 'peaking before an audience. If a pia i to he given hy the Society, the tendency among the students is t hecome acquainted with the subject in order that they may understand it Perchance the Mudont has never learned i appreciate good literature, then a good interpretation f a sketch often arouses an interest for such literature. The Philomathean Society was formed in the fall of I8S‘ l.v the union of the Xcirophian Literary Society and the Irving Debating Club The meetings were held weekly in a hall in the Main lluihling. which hall was given to the society hy the trustees. In 1913. on account of the crowded condition of the school, permission was given to use the Chattel for the meetings of the Societies, in which place they are held .it the present time. The Philomathean Society Ita been progressing rapidly both in quality and in membership. The quality is shown bv our excellent programme and the numerous play , (which Doctor highly encourage I. The membership speak for itself Thus with these evidence , our members are capable of recommending the Philomathean Literary Society. XI. II. P.

This society, like the other one. i' conducted hy the students themselves. They attempt to get therefrom all the aid possible to lit them for their ftnre work. He -ides the benefit which the students who perform derive for themselves, the programmes furnish a source of entertainment to the people living in the vicinity. During the past year a large enrollment of mrm-hefs has been received. A series of very interesting programmes has heen rendered, consisting of piano -oho, and ducts, vocal .solos and choruses, readings, recitations, orations, declamations, debates and dramatic plays. The Hryant- have given, during our life at Normal, several plays which made up an entire evening's programme. Among these are: The Deacon's Second Wife. “A Mock Trial. and The Old New Hampshire Home. The last one mentioned was given in the spring of It proved a great success and was largely at- tended hy the town people as well as the students. The students taking the parts of character- in the play entered into it with zeal which was greatly admired hy the onlookers. The scenery wa� splendidly arranged.

There is no doubt hut that the literary society is a -plemliil help 1,1 all who belong to it. and no student's school life i complete without this membership. G. R. II.
