As Bloomsburg State Teachers College moves along, the responsibility of recording its life falls on the shoulders of those serving as members of the Obiter Staff. In passing the twenty-fifth milestone, we of the 1941 Obiter Staff in pre- senting the twenty-fifth volume dedicate this book to the editorial and business staffs that have given of their time in years gone by.

c t was in 1915 that the seniors of the Bloomsburg Normal School undertook the task of recording in their own way the various deeds and events p erformed by them during their life on Normal Hill. Under the editorship of Roy C. Kindig, of Harveysville, they published the yearbook Onward. Onward to them was an appropriate name because it signified their purpose. The Normal Community was so pleased with the yearbook that another was published in 1916. This was the first Obiter or a collection of passing remarks said by the way, derived from the Latin Dictum Obiter. Dictum was dropped and the book was entitled Obiter as we know it today. This Obiter was edited by W. Earl Tubbs, of Shickshinny, and dedicated to Dr. David J. Waller, Jr., who was then principal of the Normal School. It is interesting to pick up the Obiter of today and that of 1916 and compare them. We see the march of fashions in dress, the advances made in the art of printing, and the ever changing and broadening interests of the students. In paging through these yearbooks, there are various bits of information which might be included in the history of the Obiter since they are themselves historic in passing: In 1927, the Obiter celebrated the coming of Dr. Haas, the transforma- tion of the Normal School into a State Teachers College, and the organization of the Community Government Association. The publishing of the Obiter has been a class project ever since 1916. It is still a collection of passing remarks said by the way — remarks that, whether they be expressed in words or in a picture, will bring many evenings of fond re- membrance in years to come.
