3u Jflemoriam LAURA L PHILL1PI December 24, 1905 Laura L. PHILLIPI was a member of our school during the year ‘04 and ‘03. While with us she endeared her¬ self to all by her merry, winning ways and her keen appreciation and enjoyment of people. We recall in her a fine scorn of shams as well as her splendid unselfishness. Conscientious and faithful in her work, she entered freely into honest fun and took a full share of the life of the dormitory. In Laura Phillipi we feel that we have lost from among us a presence dear to the faculty and students, but that there remains a memory and influence, bright and helpful, that will last thru life. . • The death of Mrs. Niblett’s father, which occurred early in January, was one of the saddest events of our Senior year. Tho we were not personally acquainted with him. our love for Mrs. Niblett, and the fact that she is an honorary member of the class, make her loss ours thru our sympathy with her. It

[ ( | )a5 undertaken by tile most progressive, up-to-date, energetic class the W. S. N. S. has ever g known the class of ' 07. We entered upon the amusement—lor Mr. Kirkpatrick says anything sub- m. J jectively pleasant is amusement—with due reverence toward its responsibilities, with conservative hopes for its possibilities, with indomitable determination to make it a success, and last but not least, with a feeling that , . . j sympathy and co operation from the rest of the school. We wish to express our sincere thanks and appre- wc »hou gj ven t„ us by all the members of our beloved faculty: but especially to Prof. W ' ilson. who encouraged nation o doubt and uncertamty at its beginning; to Prof. Morgan, whose practical advice and sympathy made U ' Imcet and to Dr. Hnrris. who is ever a source of refreshment and encouragement, and who has also aided iiumidyn proof-reading. THIS SC HOOL was established by Act of Legislature on the 28th of March. 1890. and designated as the Washing- State Normal School. We claim it to be the oldest and best school in the state. Its equipment is the best that money !°,n buy and out-of-doors can furnish. We arc centrally located. Our situation is ideal. In the town there are few distractions, but many attractions. The building is excellent and the grounds beautiful. We have a remarkable training department ' But above all we have the most able and most admirable faculty with which a school was ever blest—a f.irullv icady and willing, merciful and kind, true and virtuous, honorable and lovable. Our present principal came here in 1898, from the Stale Normal School at Providence, Rhode Island. We will not eulogi e him. for we feel that all who read this know him. But we will say one word. He loves his neighbor as him¬ self No one knows the school as a body or as individuals better than he: and few but can testify of help, encouragement and sympathy gained from him personally. •. . Our vice-principal is like unto him in character. He has spent most of his past life in untiring efforts lor the cause of education in our own state and school. He has occupied the chair of mathematics for nearly thirteen year , so is now our senior teacher. Of the other teachers we need only to say that we love them dearly, and firmly believe that they love us. We cannot begin to realize what they are doing for us; but when we have left our dear old school, to enter upon the field for which they have been jealously preparing us, we know that more and more we shall become aware of the tremendous debt we owe them. A THL NORMAL SCHOOL—pooh—a place for teachers and pedagogs. old maids and bachelors. This, the senti¬ ment of young people taught in the backwoods of civilization by old Miss Hannah Grinsbee, age 48. and Mr. Alexander Madison Plunkett, a little older. And if this myth has not found lodgment in the brain of the youth, another, equally bad and unfounded, is sometimes discovered. A school of method, with practical common sense in the cellar. Deluded generation! Why, yes, of course, there are some old-maid teacher , but that is not their fault. How could it be otherwise when the ratio is almost 16 to I in favor of the feminines, where polygamy is unlawful, and where, of course.
