APART FROM THE VVORLD I love to stand aside, And let the world go whirling by, For itis in these moments of solitude, That one sees clearly what is there. Xl hat to do, and what to leave undone. It is restful to one's spirit, one's heart, sould and senses, To step aside, and watch. PEGGY COLLINS RAINY-DAY THOUGHTS Listen to the murmur of the raindrops on the sill, VX'hen everything around you is very dark and still. It's then your memory lingers on the days of long ago, YYhile phantom figures flit about-the folks you used to know. And from out this dewy drizzle ever dripping on the wall Comes a fresh and joyous feeling that quite transcends them all For then you see the richness of what life has given you, Her gift of gifts most precious-hearts forever true. PEGGY CoLL1Ns VVORLDLINESS Bright yellow moon Filling the room, Is that a smile or frown upon your face? And what do you think of the human race? Did you and the sun ever converse, I And what did you think of the whole universe? PEGGY CoLL1Ns 73

C. N. S. P. E. IDEALS The outstanding goal toward which our educational efforts should lead us during our school life at C. N. S. P. E. is the building into our characters those personal and professional ideals which will make us worthy, conscientious, responsible members of the great fraternity of teachers. Our school believes that development of sound character traits is of as great importance as the perfection of physical skills and techniques. Yes, even of greater importance, since a teacher with a warped character presents more far reaching possibilities of harm doing in daily contacts than does the teacher with an unskillful body. Therefore development of a personality that pleases and makes one a congenial, desired member of a social group. Character that is sound and can withstand the stresses and strains of Life's daily problems, Appreciation of the finer things of life, Loyalty to the best traditions of our school, and to the highest and best that is in each one of you, is what C. N. S. P. E. expects of each of its daughters. As the strength of the body lies chiefly in being able to endure hardships, so also does that of the mind. And the great principles and the foundation of all virtues and worth lies in this,-that a man is able to deny himself his own desires, cross his own inclinations, and purely-follow what reason directs as best, though his appetite lean the other way -John Locke. Water never rises above its source. A school's character and reputation can be no higher than the character and reputation of the students and alumnae who call it-ALMA MATER. FRANCES MUssELMAN 72
