Hinkle, to show our appreciation of his help and guidance through two happy years of College life, and the apprecia- tion of the whole school for his willing aid in the many financial enter- prises made possible, in a way, by his co-operation and advice. OF THIS BOOK Also — to Elmer A. Morrow, who has made it possible, through his invaluable aid and helpful suggestions — tlie publishing of this book, sparing neither time nor effort to help to make it a success. Chicago Normal College Chicago Normal College stands unique among tire educational institutions of our state. It is the only normal training school supported entirely 1) - municipal taxation. It does not stand alone, however, in our country. Many cities now have scliools of training for the teaching profession, and the time is not far distant when all cities of sufficient size will have normal schools. Chicago Normal College also differs from other normal schools in the state in that it assures positions to the most of its graduates, i. e., all those who are residents of the city of Chicago. This comprises by far the greater number. We. who are about to graduate from this school, may do some reminiscing on the training we have received. We realize now that our training has not been primarilv in books, but in character formation. There are certain traits which a teacher must possess to a greater degree in order to be successful than the members of any other profession. Some of the most important of these are responsibility, initiative, and judgment. A normal school would be defi- cient, indeed which did not mold the character of its student along these lines. It was for this, then, that we were continually asked to solve our own and our classmates ' difficulties. For this, that in the absence of instructors we were requested to take charge of our own classes. ' hen we come to our practice teaching we realize how much this has helped us. We endeavor to pass on some of this same feeling of responsibility to our pupils. It simplifies so much the artificial adjustments required by the schoolroom. We are much interested to learn that (jur ])rinci])al. Dr. William ISishop Owen, has under consideration plans for improving and specializing our system of practice teaching. Nor do the proposed reforms stop here. It is hoped that the curriculum may be extended to four years, thus providing a free education to every child in Chicago, who wishes it, from the first grade thru a four-year college course. However, these plans are not yet ready for formal announcement. It is to be hoped that many cities will soon i)rovide amply thru municipal colleges not only for the teaching profession, but for other professions, and vaca- tions as well.

Upper Senior Class Records 1916-1918 The Chicago Normal Teacher ' s Training Camp opened on September fifth, nineteen hundred sixteen, to find one hundred eighty recruits had reported for duty. But, unfortunately, only a few of the newcomers had their Health Certifi- cate Credentials, and the majority were forced to return whither they had come. The next day found the new soldiers back with proper letters of introduction and admitted to classes of instruction. By the end of the week the soldiers were feeling more at home and the organization was in running order. After a few months of preliminary training, officers were chosen to lead the new regiments. The General was ' iola Hieber, Adjutant General Mildred Smith, Chief Clerk Helen Falkenberg. and Angela Wratkowsky was chosen to the responsible position of money changer. Th new privates at camp had a get-together party at Christmas. This was the first relaxation from duty; the Senior Lieutenants at camp were hostesses. The period of advancement had come and the recruits stepped up. The first incident in this new period was a program furnished by the class for the rest of the camp. Talent from the privates themselves was used where possible. The entry of our country into war and the decision of the officers of the camp to aid as best they could by having a War Garden gave the soldiers an opportunity of out door drill, while visibly helping the Win the War slogan. As those in training had worked very hard for so long, they were granted a two-months ' furlough at this time. The day camp reopened, new men were added to the ranks and some of the former members had resigned. Remembering their homesickness on entering camp these men helped to lessen that pain for recruits, who had entered when camp began again. Many friends were made and intimate relations established by these Welcome affairs. This particular class had suffered the loss of their General, so new officers were elected with the following results: General. Angela Wratkowsky; Adjutant General, Kathleen Bush ; Clerk, Marie Stacer ; Pay Collector, Florence Weidner. Time again came when the class must present their program. The success was immediate and was a great credit to the performers. War spirit was vividly pictured at Thanksgiving to an enthusiastic audience. The final advancement before receiving of commissions was made when the embryo officers were sent out to practice work. A number of them were sent out in September, but the majority in February, where they were to find out their real ability for instructing a part of the great army of children. Now we wear our ensigns ; again we read in camp our Emblem ; here we appear in our beautiful and dignified performance Illinois Centennial Pageant and at last we receive our commissions and pass out as soldiers of pedagogy. The guide, counselor and friend of the graduating officers is Captain Hinkle of the Camp Staff . He is a true friend to all and to him the class is greatly indebted. I. ElCH.

Mr. hitten, Mrs. Moulton, and Miss Hutcl son v -ere the captains to whom these com])anies were assigned. When orders .ihi been issued, the privates disbanded, and each rejxjrted for duty as directed. The officers for the first five months were : Theresa Ludwig President iClizabeth Farrell Vice-President luhel Maxted Secretary Ro e ] ' oley Treasurer A camp entertainment was held, at which the veterans of the camp welcomed the new-comers. Mere the r cruits met the chaplain, Miss Cabell, also. . t the end of the first five months of training, the drill masters, Mrs. Pendleton and Miss Gallagher, had succeeded in getting the correct res])onse to ' ' Dress Right! and Stand at Attention! Those promoted to office for the next term were : ( ieraldine iVIoore President Lillian Lewis Vice-President Elizabeth Perry Secretary Ella Wilson Treasurer The camp entertainments were not so numerous during these later months, as nearly all members of the camp had turned their attention to hospital work. - great many socks, sweaters, hospital jackets, and surgical dressings were turned in to the Red Crojs. The Tuesday afternoons devoted to this work were not always without entertainment, or refreshments, although the latter were always war rations. The next promotion made the following officers • Elizabeth Farrell President Sophie Weiner „ ' ice- President Adelaide Lynch Secretary Helen Leonard Treasurer During the entire time spent in training. iIil gcneial assemblies, group meet- ings, and social hours, wre greatly enjo ed by all. At the time when the title, Seniors, was bestowed upon them, there was a new band of recruits to be welcomed into camp. There was a typical camp blow-out, at which Belinda, the Beautiful Boiler Mak r, was presented, with an all-star ca.st.

Ch, llenger. jr ' EPAB Manual Training Department The young ladies of the college have often seen a group of young m.-n speeding along to get to a class on time, but perhaps have never realized that they are college men and not some boys from Parker High. W ' e wish to inform the ladies of the college that there are seven men and three girls in the manual training department of this school. W ' e are not well acquaint d because we are practically isolated from the rest of the college. If we did not take English the whole college would be sur- prised, probably, at the second statement in this article and begin a diligent search for the rendezvous of these mysterious students. Our isolation has as many advantages, however, as disadvantages. The one great advantage is that we are situated so that concentration upon manual training is possible. We are being trained to teach industrial arts in the schools. This subject includes several things, but woodworking is the main one. We get concrete construction and at present are taking a course in printing. We also have a subject which the rest of the college are familiar with — Psychology. We have an excellent department, but all the equipment is not yet in it. If any of the students would like to inspect this department, they will find our headquarters in Room 107, The Arts Building. W. H. K. The Household Arts Department The Household Arts Department has never had a greater opportunitj ' for the practical application of its principles, than at the present time. Since the war has brought about the problem of Food Conservation and Relief ' ork, this department has become ver}- prominent. It is being considered a part of the great educational movement and will never again be looked upon as an isolated factor. Last September Miss Snow, who had been the head of this departmnt for a number of years, became the supervisor of Household Arts and Sciences of the Chicago Public Schools. While we regretted greatly to lose her as an instructor, we have found in her successor. Miss Swain, a friend and helper as well as a splendid teacher. Under Miss Swain ' s supervision several changes were made. The lunch- room was brought under the management of the department. This has given the students a valuable course in Institutional Cookery and has been an improve- ment and a benefit to everyone. An elective course in Household Arts and Science was offer; d of which many students have taken advantage. The department has co-operated with the government by its active partici- pation in the campaign for Food Conservation and War Relief Work. Not only has it strictly obeyed orders, but has been a means of instructing others in following them intelligently. By exhibits of various kinds along food lines, by the testing of recipes and other practical work, it helped spread the news throughout the student body. The sewing and knitting for the Red Cross and the making of garnnents for Belgian children form a large part of its activities. The department has also adopted a French Orphan, Philbert Rogue, in whom it has taken great interest. The greatest publicity was given the department when the students assisted in the Cornmeal Demonstration and the Patriotic Food Show, both presented under the auspices of the Illinois Council for National Defense. At the latter the students had charge of the Fruit and X ' egetable booth and gained valuable experience in explaining its purpose and work to groups of people. Through the efforts of Miss Snow, as a member of the Hoover Conserva- tion Staff, Normal colleges were put on an equal basis with universities in this great food drive. As a result of this, our college was represented nationally by Miss Swain, who worked at Washington to prepare a laboratory course in cooking for the use of colleges and universities. This, with other courses, is given for the purpose of making women students instrumental in carrying the message to the public. This is only a glimpse into the work of this department whicli has made such rapid strides in the past few years. With such a splendid start it will do all in its power to help bear the burden and responsibility of the coming years. flats ' . Kindergarten A few years ago wh.n the graduates of the Kindergarten department of the Normal College advanced to get their diplomas at Commencement, a litde group of six or seven students upheld the dignity of the departm nt. Xow our classes number from eighteen to twenty-tive each semester and the enrollment for this year is eighty-two. We know that soon it will number one hundred. It has taken a more prominent part in Normal School life this year than ever before, due partly to its increased membership and partly due to the efficiency of its members. The Editor-in-chief of the Daily Normal, the President of the Normal Coll ge Athletic Association, prominent members of the Glee Clubs, Dramatic Clubs and Athletic Clubs are among the graduates of this year ' s class. We are glad that the kindergarten students are taking part in all these things for new activities are always opening to them in their profession, and we will have an opport unity to hear much about them when the International Kinder- garten Union convenes in Chicago in June. This organization had its origin in 1893, here in Chicago with a small group of peoph, who wished to give some evidence of kindergarten work at the World ' s Fair held here that year. So it was altogether fitting that Chicago should be selected for the Silver Anniversary Meeting. Those who were present at that humble beginning will appreciate the contrast between that first mseting and the one to be held now — with its eighteen thousand members, and six hundred delegates ! Practically all of the civilized countries of the world now have inter- ested members in this great work. This organization seeks to advance the welfare of little children everywhere. At present there is a great field of work among the thousands of suffering little orphans in France — those little ones from whom life itself seems gone, leaving only misery behind it. The Supervisor of the New York kindergartens was sent to France by the New York Citizens ' League, to investigate the conditions of the children of the war. The chairman of the Children ' s Division in the Red Cross in France suggested that kindergarteners be sent to France, and four were sent by the Kindergarten Union, and four more will probably go in September. One of our own Normal School graduates has offered her services and hopes to be one of those sent in September. We of the Kindergarten Department have adopted a little French child, Paulette F- raud, who was five years old last September. She receives a monthly allowance from the department and has had two donations of clothes and books. When we think of the vast numbers of such unfortunates, and all the chil- dren in our own country who need to be cared for, we realize how important is our war relief work and how much we need to do. W e are proud of our Department, of our leaders and our instructors, Mrs. .Alice 0 ' Gra(ly Moulton and Miss Olive Russell, who have made it wliat it is for us and for the school. DEM ORAL The Deaf (Val Dc])artinent of the Chicagu X ' onnal School was organized and a training chiss formed in the College in l ' 05. Ten years earlier the first Oral Class in the City Day Schools had been opened in the Yale with Miss Eudora Montgomery in charge. A little later Miss Susan M. Reaman was assigned as teacher of a second class. This gradually led to the establishment of the present south side cent:r in this school, which today has an enrollme it of one hundred and twenty-eight pupils. A second center is located on the west side and a third on the north side of the city. The latter is housed in a beautiful new building named in honor of Doctor Alexander Graham Hell, who was present at the Dedication Exercises in April of this year. Dr. Bell is known to the general public through his invention of the tele- phone, but for many years he has been an earnest promoter of speech and speech reading for the deaf. He founded and liberally endowed the Volta Bureau, and organization For the Increase and Diffusion of Knowledge Relat- ing to the Deaf, which has done much to make speech methods for the deaf popular. Through our Department Assembly this year, we had an opportunity to see and hear Dr. Bell. The demonstration with the children would lead students who are interested to see more of the work in the class rooms of the Parker Practice. We are often asked if we do not find our work trying and difficult, but is any work difificult when one is interested and is there any work worth doing, that does not have its obstacles to be overcome and also its comp nsations? It has been beautifully said of a little deaf child : Thou art not chained to darkness and despai It is decreed that thou shalt not be bound To the .grim tyrant of a slow-paced past. Speak, little one, for thou art free, at last. Parker Practice School liractice rs at the exploded The name gives it away. ' es, Parker is a practice school, hut ; school in more than one sense of the word. In the first ])lace, I ' arker is one of those dr ad mills thrcnigh wli Xormal girls must go in order to become hnished teachers. But from another ]ioint of view Parker is a practice school in th; into practice the princijiles and theori s ex])ounded by the professo Xormal Cnllege, an unusual state of affairs, for theories are usualh to the four winds. The departmental system is Parker ' s first mark of modernism. This school was not slow to realize that a teacher cannot be expert in all subjects and so installed departmentalism. It works admirably, one might almost say. to perfection. Parker has assum:d its responsibility in training the children vocationally and once a week the girls are instructed in the neglected household science while the boys are given an i ])portunity to jirove th ir manual dexterity in the manual tr;iining rooms. In every comjjlete school we, of course, must find the kindergarten. Parker meets the requirements with a most up-to-date Kindergarten Department. P)Ut perh.aps the most ultra-modern of the departments is the Deaf Oral Department, . nother instance in which the school does, ind ed. meet the vital needs nf the comniunitN ' . . t present. Principal Hatfield, with his usual efficiency, is |}lanrintr to make the se -cnth and eighth grad s into a Junior High School. Through, indeed, will the Parker Practice be our ideal modern school. Carter Practice School Every Normal girl who has had the opportunity to practice at the Carter School will remember it with pleasure, for it is a most interesting and helpful experience from the standpoint of her future teaching profession. The splendid organization of the teaching body impresses one immediately through the hearty and interested co-operation of every member. Everywhere - — even among the children — there is an atmosphere of alertness and interest which is quickly felt by Normal college girls. The student teacher is soon made quite at ease by the general spirit of helpful and kindly fellowship. One of the great benefits derived from contact with this institution, is the spirit of independence and self-reliance which it fosters. The children heartily support the various school activities. Several clubs have large memberships — among them the Glee Club and orchestras. The great enthusiasm over athletics is, no doubt, in some measure due to a large g ' m- nasium, a swimming pool, and a fine outdoor playground. The pride which the children take in the school and their enthusiastic response to all that is asked of them, speaks highly for the good standing of the Carter Practice among our best Chicago schools.

The day begins at 8:45 a. m. here, when the flag is raised in the school yard and these little future citizens of America display their patriotism and enthusiasm by their ])ledge of allegiance, and by singing the national anthem. Ijefore we have been at the school very long someone will tell us something concerning the history of the school. It was not so very long ago that the Board of Education realized that the experience of students was limited to work with native born children from English speaking homis and Normal College graduates were handicapped when they entered a school with children of foreign born jiarents. The Harrison School on 23rd IMace, near ' entworth Ave., was chosen because of its location as the new practice school. Italians and Sicilians compose the greater part of the neighborhood. In 1914 the old name Harrison Public . ' school was erased from above the er.trance and the new name, John C. Haines Public School, has taken its place. The school life of most of these children is ended when thev graduate from the Haines School, so during the years they are in school they are taught some of the trades they may use after they leave school. The Haines School is not only a forerunner in the I ' resh Air Crusade, but is also one of the first schools to establish the Penny Lunch System whereby the children from the poorest homes may purchase a nourishing lunch for one or two pennies. Aliss Dal_ ' and the Eaculty are proud of the sixty-eight stars in the Haines service flag, and the children who are as enthusiastic to h ' -lp America in any patriotic movement as any children of native born American Citizens. Ethel E. Lund. Editorial The Emblem The Emblem of June, nineteen liundred and eighteen is now a finished prod- uct. Although smaller in size than usual, because of existing conditions, it is our hope and belief that it makes up in excellence what it lacks in mere size. The Stafif of 1918 has worked heartily with a certain aim in view, that is — to make this year ' s Emblem the very best one ever published. To do this we have tried to make the Emblem a product of the whole College and every- one connected with it, not the work of a few individuals. We have tried to consider the tastes and preferences, not only of the Senior Classes, but also those of the Junior Classes, the Faculty, both of the College and Practice Schools, and our Alumni. Before you criticize this book, if you do, we ask you to remember that we afe only human after all, that we have tried to do our best, and — most important of all — that this is your Year-Book, and you have helped, in a small or greater way, to make it what it is. Kathleen M. BrsH, Editor-in-chief.

Secretary — Dorothv Xewell Alice Hayes Harriet Wall Edna Winch Ruth Jacobs Marion Murdock Early last September, a great many adventurous spirits, books in hand, were seen walking back and forth before the closed door of room 2C0. To the curious was vouchsafed th? information: S. D. C. Tryout. Two weeks later the for- tunate aspirants to stage fame loosed their hair, robed themselves in sackcloth, to do obeisance to the Muses, — and by the light of the lowdy candle began that pilgrimage which brought thm to the sanctuary of S. D. C. Then came a period of peaceful tranquility during which the members met, knitted, ate apples and popcorn, and between bites discussed the possibilities of various plays. It was unanimously agreed that th- S. D. C. justify its existence in these strenuous times by producing — unaided by a coach from outside — three one-act plays, the proceeds of which would go to sw ell the Red Cross fund. Despite the fact that the Auditorium was clos d when it was needed for rehearsals, and that an additional week ' s vacation brought the girls into prac- tice and its added difficulties before the plays could be given, the members of the cast proved that the spirit of S. D. C. was stronger than ever before, and on February 15. they triumphantly presented the delightful fantasy. The Maker of Dreams, The Pipe of Peace, a comedy brim full of ludicrous inci- dents, and the very English and enjoyable, ' Twelve Pound Look. Senior Dramatic Club The following girls in the casts deserve credit for the splendid way in which they overcame the difficulties of preparation, and for the cleverness with which they interpreted their several roles.

C. who loyally supported the cast by their sales- manship powers, and to Beatrice Connelly on whom fell all the work incident to stage management especial thanks is due. Lastly the club cannot sufficiently thank Miss Freeman, who though ill, gave unceasingly of herself to advise and encourage Normal ' s Would-be Stars. %iriiP The New Ladv Bantock The New Lady ISantock by Jerome K. Jerome was the big effort of the S. D. C. this year. Two performances were given June 7 in the college audi- torium. Rose Kumbalek as Fanny, The New Lady Bantock, made a most agreeable pivot for tlie tliree groups in the play — the English gentry of the old school, the formal and righteous English servants, and the devil-may-care theatri- cal folk. The remainder of the cast follows: ' ernon, Fanny ' s husband Elaine Hickey Rennet, her butler Marion ■olfe Mrs. Piennet, her housekeeper Margaret Foley Jane Bennet, her maid Beatrice Connelly Ernest Bennet, her footman Florence Shields Honoria Bennet, another maid Dolores Keefe The Misses Wether. 11, her aunts bv marriage !lr ' - w ' !

Everyone entered heartily into the work, for no one eould do otherwise under the genial direction of .Mr. h ' airhank. The musicale was held in Xovemher and the Saiior Glee Club presented the following numbers : 1, Beauteous Morn Edward tierman The Rosary I ' lthelbert Nevin Berceuse and altz Sung H. W. Fairbank 2. Morning Song Massenet O, Dry Those Tears Theresa del Riego Smoking O. E. Robinson The Junior Glee Club did not contribute its usual numbers, but served most agreeably by procuring as soloists Mrs. Mabel Sharpe Herdien and Mr. Gustaf Holmquist, neither of whom needed an introdtiction to Normal College music lovers. Our own delightful soloist was Mrs. Helen Axe Brown-Stephens, who favored us at Mr. Fairbank ' s request. On May 13, 1918, the Senior and Junior Glee Clubs united in presenting a spring musicale. We were fortunate indeed in obtaining the services of Mr. Burton Thatcher, baritone, and of a former Xormal College student, Mrs. Valerie ' alkcr Marshall. The Senior Glee Club presented the following selections: Thy Beaming Eyes Edward McDowell Deep River. Fisher-Harris Beneath Thy I -attice j-lenry Patterson Hopkins The club wishes to express its sincere thanks to Mr. Fairbanks for his efforts in its behalf. We are happy indeed to have been privileged to come under his able leadership and inspiring personality.

During the Christmas semester most of the girls were so engrossed in school work, that it was impossible to hold regular meetings, or do more than take a small part in the February Commrncement Exercises. Xow, however, under the spell of oncoming summer and the god of music, we have tried to do our best, with Miss Lafifin ' s enthusiastic supervision, to share equally the hard labor and compensating honors of the 1918 Spring Musicale. If we temporarily disarranged or in anyway affected the internal intricacies of any auditory organ, we humbly beg your pardon. But if, on the other hand, we have raised you to a pinnacle of musical joy, we say with a graduate ' s manner blase: We know we could do it. If If If Athletic Association OFFICERS President Lorraine Bremner Vice President Marguerite Salasman Secretary Marguerite Foster Treasurer Estelle Cox Cheer Leader Louise Tefferson t)U can nearly always tell them in a crowd, can ' t you; the healthy, sturdy looking girls who go in for some kind of athhtics? The Normal College Athletic Association is the largest and most popular club in the college. The club aflords both social and physical benefits to its members. It is surprising to see how many new friends and acquaintances are made through the sports and through the jolly good times in which all take part. There is nothing that the girls enjoy better than to participate in the sports offered by the N. C. A. A. You who have watched the girls in the clubs — swimming, hiking, basketball, tennis, dancing, or indoor — will know that they enjoy every minute. They leern through the sports to be triumphant winners, or pleasant, cheery, good losers ; and the latter is an important part of anyone ' s training. These hours of sport are recreation to the girls after the strict routine of the day ' s work in the college. The N. C. A. A. awards trophies according to a point system; a numeral is awarded for 100 points made in any club; an N for 400 points; and a gold pin for L200 points. So if you see a girl with a numeral, she ' s ambitious and healthy; if you find out she has an N , she ' s more ambitious and healthier; if you discover she wears a pin, she ' s most ambitious and healthiest. LOKR.MNE I ' )REMNI-:R. Basketball (.)ur basketball [iractice opened last fall with about thirty-five girls out for praetice. The following officers were elected; Tresident, L. Creamer; Captain, M. Pierce (Senior); J. Rathman (Junior); Manager, M. Smith (S:nior); E, Cox (Junior); Reporter, C. Hock (Senior); E. Arkema (Junior). Under the efficient coaching of Miss Lillian Thompson, two strong teams were developed. Each practice found almost perfect attendance, the girls on their ti])-toes, and ambitious to make the team. .At the last practice the teams were selected by the coach and e.xecutive com- mittee. It was after this that Miss Thompson informed the girls that she was to go West to teach. This surprised them very much, but the following day. Miss Thompson was surjirised in her turn, by a fine spread given in her honor. The All-Star Team chosen was composed of: ' .remner. E. Cox. C. .Avers, E. Ballantvre. M. Pierce, A. Kulicek, L. Mrs, Pendleton kindly consented to referee our three final gamjs. The juniors carried the honors in the first game, to their great delight. The second and third games, however, were won by the Senior team, giving them the cham- pionship. P)esides the active playing on both sides, the games w ere marked by many spectators, and enthusiastic rooting led by Miss Albright and Miss Tracy. The club was pleased to add its bit to the Red Cross fund by turning over its admission montv which amounted to about twenty-five dollars. Dancing Club President Estelle Cox Secretary U ' inifred Wernicke Terpsichore never intended that her art should become comnK n, or that the favored few should be able to follow her light, fantastic footsteps without much arduous preparation. So it was a lively and energetic body of students that assembled one afternoon, elected officers and called themselves the Dancing Club. Xow the secrets of Terpsichore are handed down from teacher to student, as the fortune-teller ' s are. Hence it was necessary to find one not only versed in these secrets, but willing to pass them on to us. We feel ourselves very fortunate in having secured Miss Mason of the Columbia College of E.xpression. We had had but- a very few lessons from Aliss Mason before we learned the greatest of these secrets. If you ' ll promise not to tell a soul, we ' ll tell you: it is Hard Work. But with our capable coach leading on we have enjoyed every minute of it. At first we thought ourselves hopeless, but, if we do say it ourselves, we think we ' re not so bad now. We have learned some very pretty and difficult dances, among them the Pipes of Pan and the Poppy Dance. Toward the end of the year we give a contest, with a preliminary tryout. This tryout will take place soon, and we are sure the final contest will be well worth witnessing. • Swimming Club OFFICERS First Si-iiicstcr President — Louis; Jeffci Secretary — Margaret (ii Reporter Instructor ■.

During the first semester the club practiced faithfully, considering the large amount of War Relief work everyone was doing. But during the months of December and January when we hoped to hold a real swimming meet, the short- age of coal witii consequent lack of heat, and the irregularity of our school ses- sions prevented us. An all-star team was chosen, however, which consisted of the following girls: Margaret Gonnaly, Marie .Albright. Louise Jefferson, Helen Simpson, Mildred Tidd and Grace Byrne.

J U ' H mB i H pPB M Tennis Club OFFICERS President Cecil Ay res Manager Gertrude Ahern Reporter Myrtle Soenksen In the fall of 1917 Tennis reign.d supreme. The Xormalites wer- : ' jt found wanting in their support of this popular sport. The tournament opened about September 15th with twenty-five entrees for singles and the sam; number for doubles. Many new acquaintances were made during the N. C. A. A. tourna- ment and all the players had a jolly good time trying to outdo their opponents in the games. In the semi-finals the three remaining contestants were Edna Winch. Eileen Wall, and Lorraine Bremner. Lorraine Bremner was the successful one, winning the championship in the final game with Eileen Wall. This was the third suc- cessive championship Lorraine had won. She received 400 points ; Eileen Wall, second place, was awarded 200 points. The final doubles were played by Margaret Russell and Margaret Gormally against Frances Daly and Dorothy Lewis. The former team was victorious. Each player received 200 jmints. Each member of the losing team was awarded 100 points. The losers enjoyed some healthy exercise and fun and not one regretted that she had taken jiart in the event. Senior Hiking Club OFFICERS 1917 1918 President — Elizabeth Sollo Margaret A. Gormally Secretary — Anna O ' Mallev Catherine Mahonev Tile Hiking Club has four aims: health, beautw friendship, fun. Every member feels that she has not been disappointed in any one of these. We know we ' re healthy, we suspect we ' re beautiful, we can never forget the friendships we ' ve formed, and as for fun, watch the responsive smiles of those who meet us, and the envious glances of the students who do not belong, when we start out. W ' e start out every Tuesday, soon after two. In the course of the year we have pretty thoroughly explored the South Side. We have taken in the whole family of ]iarts — Wash.ington, Jackson and Sherman, and have even gone as far as Beverly Hills. Some of the s]iecial events which we have enjoyed are a wisnie roast at Beverly Hills, a Hare and Hounds race, and a hike to Sherman Park followed by a dance. As if all this in itself were not enough to lure one on, each member who takes twelve hikes in a semester is presented with a numeral at th.e close of the semester. We are glad to say that many of our girls possess not only one, but several of these coveted insignia. Junior Hiking- Club NEWS ]TI ' :.M A certain member of 4D nearly had to go to jail for the canse of geography. It happened thus: Her class was taking a trip, ' ' and the way led through Champaign, Illinois. This city A kindly consented to report on. To further the value of her report, she wrote to the place, asking for maps and any available information. Then she sat calmly down and waited for a whole week. During the spring vacation, there came a gentleman to her house, and guard- edly inquired why she wanted those maps. She explained. The stranger then told her that she was suspected of being a German spy. Now Miss Walker is busy writing assurance to the suspicious that A ' s inten- tions were honest and above-board; inspired by no traitorous design, but by a pure, and indeed, disinterested pursuit of knowledge.

' ou followed it faitlifully from our little back oftice to our new spacious |uartcrs. I ' .ut it was too far gone, and the change in climate failed to improve the condition of the patient. So the old fairy, Hard Times, who must have hcen present at the birth, bad her desire. lUit we who worked — nay, slaved, that others might be satisfied — hope that our jiaper has only fallen into a short sleep, to be awakened by the touch of School Interest to a new life. The school needs a paper now more than ever before, so you who are left ,i.;et busy and save your jjennies. The value you get back in a real, live Normal will more than repay you. If, however, you can ' t jiossibly support a Daily, why not make it a ISi-vveekly? You can ' t afiford to be without a school paper. .• s to what has been done, we students are most grateful to Marie Klamm- steiner, June, 1917, for starting our publication. She was able to name that which we all felt was lacking — so. three cheers for her ! The paper this year was the result of no one person ' s individual effort, but the coml)ined effort of a large number. Some of the ablest girls in the school (unfortunately not all of them were on the list) were mi the staffs and all liel]ie l with a will. It was a misfortune that three of tour selected editors had to resign — Angela W ' ratkowsky, Helen Falkenburg and Matth;w Fitzgerald. This was due to unex- jjccted circiunstances which arose during the year and the vacancies were filled with other com]). tent students.

The Coun- cil has been a factor in Normal College Life for only three years, but it is now firmly established on a rock foundation. This body is composed of student representatives, two from each section, one at large from each of the four classes with an additional representative from each of the Kindergarten, Household Arts and Manual Training Departments ; the presidents of the classes are also members. With such a complete represen- tation the Council reaches out and connects all parts of the College. The war to a certain degree has somewhat changed the work of the Coun- cil. At the beginning of the school year the College had to be organized to meet the present demands. The Council was then taken up with getting each one in the school into this one big movement ; to bring home to every Xormal student the seriousness of the problem that was facing us, War Relief. A Council Com- mittee was appointed and with the help of a Faculty Committee, the movement was launched and before long the click of needles was heard throughout the school. Signs of real work were present everywhere. The next big problem was, What Is Normal (ioing to Do for Food Con- servation? The matter was thoroughly discussed and it was decided that Wheat Conservation was most essential. The Council representatives have tried to act as missionaries in helping to bring about a realization of this particular branch of war activities. Then we became interested in collecting books for the soldiers. We endeav- ored to make One book from everyone our slogan and succeeded in getting quite a collection of books, which we hope will help to entertain some of our Sammies or Jackies. Because of the many diiTerent and unusual demands that have been pressed upon the College this year, we have felt a great need for organization. In this one respect the Student ' s Council has become more thoroughly emergd into our school curriculum. We have had the Council as a means of organizing. It has been suggested that we change the name Student ' s Council to Stu- dent ' s Government. It seems as though we have not as yet reached that climax where we feel that such a change would be of any benefit and under the present stimuli Student ' s Council stems to quite fit its purpose. Each yfar the Council is making rapid strides toward the accomplishment of its most important aim, To make the Xormal College a self-government insti- tution, and we feel it has gone a long and a good way this y:ar of ' 17- ' 18. WAfl- RELIEF (B War Relief work has proved a victorious competitor with purely social organizations. One can realize this by comparing the numbef of clubs represented in last year ' s Emblem with those found in this year ' s. The time formerly given to clubs is now being given to various War Relief organizations. Soon after school opened in September the Student ' s Council appointed a committee to perfect plans for the direction of the efforts of the student body in behalf of our country. The members of this committee are Laura Thielgaard, 1 D: Marion Powers, III E; Elizabeth Sollo, HI A; Florence Shields. Ill G; [• ranees Daly, II M ; Frances Lichter, I T. This committee working in co-opera- tion with the faculty connmittee composed of Miss Cabell as chairman. Miss Milner, Miss Blount, Mr. Hatfield, and Mr. Morrow, took charge of the adminis- tration of activities, and has continued to do so throughout the year. ' e first established an au.xiliary of the Red Cross. It is known as the Chi- cago Normal Auxiliary Xo. 317, and has Miss Cabell as chairman and Miss Laura Theilgaard as vice-chairman. It is through this au.xiliary that all our materials are requisitioned and returned in completed form. By action of the Faculty, Tues- day afternoon was set aside for War Relief work. All clubs meeting on Tues- day and unable to change to other days were discontinued. Lhider this auxiliary two knitting groups, an experienced and a beginners ' , and a sewing group were organized. A little later a group for making Comfort and Christmas Bags was added. The attendance at the start of these groups totaled one hundred and fifty, which was a promising beginning. By November the attendance on Tuesday afternoons had so increased that some readjustments were found necessary. The unit of organization was made the section, with the chairman in charge of each. The number of workers in yarn increased to three hundred and eighty-four, and one hundred makers of refugee garments, hospital shirts, etc., are registered. In January. Section III D organized a class in surgical dressings and secured an instructor from Red Cross headquarters. Und ' r the enthusiastic guidance of the students in charge and of Mrs. Holmes, the instructor, attendance increased rapidly until it became one of the most flourishing departments. Since a few of the sections were not well organized for work, the Work- shop was opened in Room 303 in April to provide for students not belonging to organized sections. .A. faculty member is present every Tuesday, and work, enter- tainment, and refreshments are provided for all. Up to date, the Normal College Auxiliary has turned in 281 sweaters, 175 pairs of socks, 118 wristlets, 58 helmets, and 47 caps. The number of hospital garments and refugee clothing can not be accurately estimated, but mounts into the hundreds. We have also made 184 jackets and abdominal bands. We have also participated in the Liberty Loan drives and established Thrift Stamp clubs. All of us, but especially the Household . rts sections, are actively interested in food conservation. Our lunchroom is conducted according to Mr. Hoover ' s strictest mandates. Several sections have adopted French orphans. Sev- enteen, altogether, are cared for by the school. The Class of June, 1917. War Relief Work We have liad a difficult task this year to convince tlie Red Cross Headquar- ters that the auxiliary of the Class of 1917, Chicago Normal College, and the auxiliary of the college itself, is not one and the same body, that we are separate and yet belong. As a matter of fact, we are much closer to the College War Work than even they can guess, for without that stimulus a nd example there is little likelihood that 1917 would ever have made the venture of organized class War Relief. And venture it certainly was in the beginning, when rooms and sewing machines were scarce, and the problem of reaching all of the three hundred even more difficult. Both were finally accomplished, the first by the Red Cross authori- ties who provided room and £(|uipiiicnt, ami the second by Section Meetings and the co-operation of Section Chairmen, so that on ( )ct(iber the twenty-ninth the work was begun. Since then it has grown in membership, and in both the quality and quantity of finished work, until now we have to our credit many hundreds of refugee garments and knitted articles, and the hospital garments, recently undertaken, are fast reaching a respectable total. Our work may be divided into four general groups. Under the first, refugee garments, is included the making of clothing for children of all ages from requisi- tioned materials and the mending and remaking of donated clothing and material suitable for foreign use. The knitting department makes a specialty of socks and sweaters, our records indicate, though helmets, caps and wristlets have all been handed in. The hospital garments division boasts the only red veil, for this group has our own authorized instructor. Miss Lula Wittman of the Household Arts Department, ' 17. Under her able teaching we are learning ciuite intricate things in the making of garments needed by our soldiers in the hospitals. The fourth activity hardly seems to have a place among these groups, and yet it serves a purpose so necessary that I include it here. It might almost be called the Parcel-post Department, if such a weighty name were fitting, for that explains its function exactly. There are many of our number who live out of town, or who are working so late that they cannot reach the Workshop them- srelves. To these we send materials for knitting and sewing and from them in due time we receive our reward. One girl, teaching a county school, takes all our scraps and converts them, with the help of her children, into patch-quilts, booties, snips and gunwipes. Another, not very far away, receives from us each week materials for baby clothes, which she returns beautifully made in time for the next meeting. There are many to whom yarn is sent — one batch even going regularly to a member of the class in Texas, who though far away still keeps her place and her interests with her classmates. Of course, this involves a good deal of plain business in keeping records accurate and up to date, and one of the class does nothing but keep track each week of the materials returned and taken, and entering this on her card catalogue. It is this catalogue which records the hours of service spent by each worker. It is surprising to see how many of the girls have already won the two crosses of honor, indicating seventy-two hours ' work — almost all the faithful have one cross — and two have already finished the next lap, one hundred and twenty-two hours, which gives the right to wear the red band Ijelow the cross on the apron. Since their graduation several members of February, 1918, have come to us for yarn and sociability, as they were invited to do. And to you, June. 1918, June, 1917, sends this message: Seek and you shall find us in the Workshop. Room 314. Atlas Building, 30 East Randolph Street. There will be friends to welcome you and plenty of work of all kinds to do. The latch string of the Workshop is always out to you ! The Cl. ss of June, 1917.

Our own Illinois, a pageant, is to be presented by the June Class of nineteen eighteen on Class Day. It is given primaril - for our contribution as a Class to our college, but secondly, perhaps more important, to lighten those burdens, which this great war imposes upon us. This is said in accordance with our Governor, who declared : e, of Illinois, will bear those burdens more lightly if we shall recall the first hundred years of Illinois ' achievements. Illinois has a hundred years of noble history as a background. Whether she shall have another hundred years equally inspiring, depends upon the issue of this world-wide war. It will help Illinois to play a great part in this war if her people will refresh their courage and strengthen their will by a study of our first hundred years. Illinois has a wonderful story, rich in patriotic endeavor and marvelous achievements. To appreciate such a story, such endeavors and achievements, it is necessary to understand her history — the early Indian tribes. French explorers, coming of the British, Mrginian conquerors, pioneer strugglers. admission to the famed Chicago, and, lastly, th.e role of ' Illinois of Today ' in the struggle of world democracy. The pageant. ' Our Own Illinois. consists of a masque and eight episodes. In the masque are represented the elements : Fire, Water, Air and Earth. The elements, their place in and gift to Illinois, is portrayed in vivid pictures of svm- bolical pantomime. The masque is followed by the first part, which consists of five episodes. The first episode: Indian of the Illini portrays the early life of the Indians in our State, their amusements, their hunting feats and warpath measures. The inter- vening of the French explorers ; Joliet and La Salle with the missioner. Father ] Iarquette, and his work among the Illini. Xow, we see the occupancy of Illinois by the British, the arising feuds. Lat r, George Rogers Clark and the ' irginians arrive and we realize an American, true blue Illinois. Followed in rapid succes- sion is the pioneer conquering the wilderness, winning out by the admission to the Union, Lincoln her son, development of her industries, growth of her cities, world- Union ; Illinois becomes a State in 1818, crowned by Columbia with a crown of twenty-one stars to signify her admission as the twenty-first State, So ends the first part and concludes Illinois ' earliest history. The second part of our pageant, which consists of three episodes : The second episode in four parts, opens with the rise and dominence of Illinois ' great son, Lincoln ; now glimpse of the Civil War ; then the rise of Industrial Illinois, upset by the fire of ' 71 and the immediate State Relief, followed by a typical picture of patriotic, working Illinois of today. The grand finale : a procession of Our Allies, their expression of joy and thankfulness to Columbia, terminates the performance. This pageant, compiled by a stiulent and participated in by every Class mem- ber, portrays in simplicit}- and earnestness the wonderful story of Our State. REPORT OF THE FORMATION OF THE EMBLEM ALUMXI ASSOCIATION Prior to the year 1915, no class had ever edited an Emblem that was a marked liiiancial success. The class of ' 15, however, was so successful in their publication of the College year record that when the books were audited it was found that there was a surplus of funds. As there was no provision for the disposal of these funds, they remained idle. The following year, profiting by the experience of its immediate predecessor, the class of ' 16 produced an equally successful Embhm and ' 17 assimilated its success. The surplus funds of the three years were pooled, but no provision for spending it had yet been made. During these years a bond had grown between the managers of successful Eniljlems, and after consideration of the disposal of the surplus funds, they decided to form the Emblem . lumni Association. On Saturday, .April 26th, the Emblem .Alumni Association was formed, a constitution adopted and the first set of officers elected. The |)urpose of the organization is to form a tie between the Emblem under jiroduction and those before it and to substantiate this tie by standing as a bond for tht, funds of each Emblem to the extent of $150. ' arious means of spending the other money will be considered. It was further established that the officers of each successive Emblem should become members of this organization automatically on their election to office and at the completion of the Emblem business the surplus funds become jiart of the Alumni treasury. Maropn Abele was elected President unanimously as a mark of appreciation and confidence because of her untiring work in organizing. The other officers are Edna Turniss, ' ice-President ; Alma Pioughton, Treasurer ; E. Allen. Secre- tary ; Mary .A. English, Reporter.

There is a long table at the L, which serves as a registration desk. Enter Landlord. Mr. Whipple, in haste Takes place behind table, and takes out a small notebook, the register. He is a short, stout man of rustic appearance. His face is very red and his hair of similar color, stands up straight all over his head. He has been running and is puffing vi.gorously. Mr. li ' hift ' lc (to ajiiirr)— Stand there, liy that table, an ' look es if ye wiiz busy. There ' s a bunch of perfessers a ' comin ' ! — •Hurry, can ' t ye?

( Sound of people approaching without. ) ( Mr. W. gasps and rushes to table. ) —Enter Professors— Mr. W. — (Smiling and bowing with a very red face! — How d ' ye do, ladies and pcTitlemen ? Do ye all want accommoda- tions here? .1 r. Minifel—We do. (Cautiously) — How much are your rooms? . !r. li ' . — Four dollars a day. Mr. Mimfel — A person renting several would set a discount wouldn ' t he? )ilr. IV. — Why-er-yes. There is a reduc- tion of five cents on each room if a per- son rents ten of them. Mr. Orrel — Reductio ad absurdem. Mr. Mimfel — Couldn ' t you give me the same for my party? Mr. IC— It ain ' t mv habit, sir, but scein ' it ' s you, you kin have the rooms for $3.96 each. Mr. Mimfel— Thzt will be satisfactory. 1 will pay for the party in advance, and of course, you nuist give me a receipt. . re all your rooms the same price? .Mr. II ' . — Yes m ' lord — ah-er-Perfesser ! .Mr. Mimfel— Then that will be all right. .Mr. rC— . 11 right, I ' ll assign your party to their rooms then. .Mr. Mimfel— My receipt first, if you please. Mr.  ' .— Why bless ye, I ' ll give it to ye as soon ' s they ' re all comf ' table. Mr. Himfel — That isn ' t businesslike, sir. Mr. IV. — (making out receipt hurriedly) — Here you are, Perf esser ! Now, ladies and gentlemen , I am at liberty to give ye yer rooms. We have just 8 left; 4 west, 2 east, 1 south and one north. (To Miss Hudson.) Which do you i.rtfcr. ma ' am : .Miss Mndsitn — l sui)|)iisc i,ur sunsets are charming — but then in an (.astLrn room one could watch the sun rise. Have you a beautiful sunrise here? Mr. W. — Yes ma ' am. I ' ve heerd they ' re wonderful. , Mss Hudson — Heard? Haven ' t you ever seen one? Mr. IV. — Why no, ma ' am. You see, I ' m gen ' rally purty busy about that time o ' day, and by the time I get around to look the sunrise is riz. .l i.5.y Hudson — You poor soul ! To be so shut out of the beautiful in life — to be so dead to art! You must see the sunrise tomorrow. Mr. If.— Well. I ' ll try to— Le ' s see, which room (lid you decide on? .Iliss I fiid sou —Why. let me see. In the west i till- iniset. in the east the sunrise. A soiuhern room is always sunny, and sun- light is so elevating to the soul. But a northern room has such possibilities in decoration ! With cold neutral walls, one niigh use very brilliant decorations. Or, if the walls are bright, as they should be in a northern room, I could use plenty of bright flowers. Really, a north room could be made to express me more than any other. Such possibilities ! — I ' ll take the north room please. Mr. JV. — (wiping his forehead) — Yes ' m (■Hopefully and meekly.) Will ye go there now. ma ' am? Miss Mndson- ' So. I will wait until the rest of the party are assigned. Mr. (f.— All right, ma ' am. (To Mrs. Colin.) Which room do you want, ma ' am? Mrs. Colin — The one with the greatest number of windows. 1 must have a great deal of light. In answer to his inquiring look.) I ' m working on an extensive bibliography of geographical reference material, to be compiled from student bibliographies of the last twenty years. W hen it is printed, 1 shall go to Florida. — Is there anyone here who has had experience in making a bibliog- raphy, do you know? Mr. 11 ' . — Xo — Yes, le ' me see. Why, yes. Down to the village, there ' s a girl as went to Normal once, for most a year. But (doubtfully) she mightn ' t want to help ye. She left Xornial so ' s she wouldn ' t have to make a geography biblography. Mrs. Coli)i — Benighted young lady! She doesn ' t know what she has missed ! Oh, ves. I ' ll take a west room, please. Mr. ;C.— (weakly)— Very well. (To Mr. Garvin. ) What ' s yours, sir? Mr. Gan-iii — I need a large room, with plenty of wall space available for maps. I have two trunks of maps coming. Air. H ' .— Well, I ' ll be—! Excuse me, ladies. Two trunks of maps ! ! Two trunks of maps!! ■hat be you, a censuser? Mr. Gan ' in — Why no. I ' m merely inter- ested in history. And why shouldn ' t I be? A subject that affects the government and welfare of 93,000,000 people! It is a won- derful subject. .Ur. (r.— Yes, sir. It is— it is. You will take?— Mr. Gar7-in (unheeding) — Yet it is really surprising how little people know of it ! County precincts and city wards, for in- stance, there is no map to show these. But I am working on one that will show them for the whole United States. ' hat ward are you in. Landlord? Mr. IV. (confused)— Why, really— I— I— AVhat wiard be I in ? Mr Gannn — Ah ! I have raised a ques- tion in your mind, have I not? Well. I shall answer it with one of my maps when they arrive. .l7r. W. — Thank you, sir. — What room? Mr. Garvin— Oh. yes. I ' ll take the east room. Mr. fl ' .— All right. (To Mr. Orrel.) Yours, sir ? Mr. Orrcl — Let me see. ■hen I was a boy, I always had a southern room. And I ' ve always liked one since. In fact, it has become a habit with me alwavs to have a south room. Habits formed in childhood, you know, often persist in the adult. Mr. Jf ' .— Yes, sir.— Mr. Orrel — Habit, my dear sir ! What a great factor it is in human life. Habit is one of the main supports of the social order. How many of our working men, do you suppose, would stay by their tiresome tasks were it not for habit? But when men arc trained to recognize the importance of tlieir own small parts, what a great step forward in education it will be. Mr. ; •.— It will indeed, sir— You ' ll take the south room, then ? Mr. Orrcl— es. Mr. U (to Mr. White)— What will you have ? Mr. iriiitc — Have you a large room with a ventilated closet or an alcove? -Ur. II ' . — Why, yes. The other east room has a large linen press adjoining. Did you bring many clothes, perfesser? Mr. White — Xo. but I have several cages of guinea pigs and rabbits coming, and I must have a place to put them. I am work- ing out a theory of animal taming, to be put into practice in the eknu ' ntar - schools of Chicago. By the way. cnuM ynu have a box of earth sent up Id ni. room at once? I have here (tapping pocket) some red, white and blue popcorn that must be planted at once. -l r ' . — Are you wor ' Kin ' on a patriotic food or somethin ' ? Mr. White — Xot exactly. I am studying the Mendelian law. I wish to see if white and blue popcorn, when crossed, will pro- duce striped hvbrid. Mr. If.— Gosh! An whafll you do with it when you get it? Mr. White — I shall publish a scientific report on the subject, and send it, together with some scecimens, to Washington. Mr. ]] ' . — Hm. And what ' U vou do with the corn? Mr. fC ii ' c- Why— the corn? Oh, it can be used just like anv other corn. Mr. ir. (vaguely)— Oh, I see. Will you take that room then? Mr. iriiite-Yei. Mr. W. (to Mr. Hoson)— There are three west rooms left, sir, and — Mr. Hoson — Has one of them a lialconv? Mr. W.—A—a— Mr. Hntoii — . balcony. . n upstairs porch, you know. .1 -. W.—Oh. Xo, there ain ' t no bal- conies around here. .All our porches is downstairs. What did you want if for, sir? .Mr. Hoson — I need a place from which I can address the pooulace, and a balcony woi-ld be just the thing. Mr. W. — Oh, you ' re going to make speeches? Be you a socialist? Mr. Hoson — Xo. I have come here ex- nrecslv to exoound the Problem-Project Method in education to the people of this cnmnnniitv. 1 will prove to them that the Prol.lem-Projm Method is estimably of more intrinsic value to them than the self- starters on the Fords. Mr. W . — Wal, you got a hard row to hoe. ( Mr. Hoson continues with all the intensity of a book salesman — All you have to do to teach anything under the shining sun to man, woman, child or animal is to create the situation which brings forth the de- sired response. Stimulus, response: stimu- lus, response : that is the sesame. The leacher ' s duty is to decide on the resjionse desired and provide the stimidus which brings forth that response, which in turn becomes the stimulus or another response, also foreseen. (Pauses for breath.) Mr. ' . — Do ye use a periscope to forsce it? Where do ye buy this stimulus, or is tliet your Problem, to find out where? Mr. lloson — Oh, my dear sir, I fear I do not make myself clear. A stimulus is not a measurable commodity except in re- sults. .• stimulus is an incentive to action, a motivation. One engaged in a motivated action is interested in the outcome. It is a Problem to him at first and its accom- plishnii ' ut becomes a Project. Motivation and stimulus uiii;lu be termed svnononious. . 11 the teacher has to do to teach anything oth: Atti vlcdL -Will, !• .Iks ■11 sure Ik. 11 1 ell As I ' sa Skills t..llow. lMio«k-.l...;c, . ttitude and Skill!

The Semester Before You Begin Practicing. You gaze with admiration upon those marvelous Upper Seniors who non- ihalantly remark tliat they are practicing. Practicing! They ' ve been doing it tor weeks, and can talk like that about it? I ' .ut how you do gasp when in reply to your timid inquiries about the labors of preparing a lesson this uncon- cerned upper classman remarks. Oh, I haven ' t thought about what Fm going to do today. I don ' t teach until second period, so there ' s lots of time. You are sure vou can never be so blase. IF YouT First Day of FVactice. You th.ink you must have a case of la grippe, for you have both a fever and chills : Xine o ' clock ! Your time has come. Your critic nods to you and reaches for her fountain pen and a sheet of paper. Her expression is either severe or quizzical or kindly, depending on whether she be all school teacher, or part school teacher and part human being. You either have enough material for ten minutes or two hours — you never match up just right with that terrible half hour. You say. Everyone take their books. ' ' and Do like Walter did to the children when you are teaching English, and the folks at home really know better. You have a secret suspicion that your critic thinks you were raised in the slums. With wabbling knees you escape. You meet your dubious- faced confreres in the lower hall. You learn that all the critics are either dolls or perfect pills. One girl shows signs of convalescence. She exclaims Anyway. Fm starved! Let ' s go to the College Inn. And you wend your way to that building at 68th and Stewart which is the source of all your troubles. III. The Second Day. You do worse if possible than on your first day. Your critic says. I ' d like to see you outside a moment. You hope it will be a painless death. The children eye you curiously and you hold your head a little defiantly as you fol- low her out of the room. When you return to the room, you try to smile happily and carelessly. Inwardly you vow to wait until it ' s warmer and then iump in the lake. IV. Sometime in the Second NN ' eek. You venture to ask your critic if she has seen The Music Master. You can now see fifty faces before you instead of as many blurred white spots, and vour knees no longer do battle against each other. . Any Day in the Seventh Week.

R. A. Z. Mrs. Cook: Can you tell us something about ostriches. Miss . Miss : The ostrich iiulustry is very profitable in Africa. Pure bred ostriches sometimes sell for $6,000 a piece. Mrs. Cook: And what is a pure bred ostrich? Miss : A pure bred ostrich is an ostrich that has an ostrich for its father and an ostrich for its mother. Student Teacher to first grade children : For this exercise hold your arms parallel. Puzzled child: Do you mean paralyzed, teacher? Mr. Hinkle (explaining difficult problem): Xow watch the board closely and I will run through it. Everything has been going up at a frightful pace. Foodstuffs, leather, skirts, and so forth, are soaring in a surprising and, in one instance, a highly enjoyable manner. Miv is there not a corresponding rise in grades? Miss Zienian : Miy are rabl)it ' s ears so long? Mr. Whitten : Might as well ask me why my eyes are brown and yours are blue. Miss Zieman : Well, why are they? AT CAMP GRAXT Two soldier friends were put in the guardhouse after dark. In the morn- ing each was surprised to find the other there. One inquired of the other, What are you in here for. Bill? On account of my furlong, Bill replied. Xot furlong! You mean furlough, the other hastened to correct him. Xo, because of m - furlong. I went too fur ' and stayed too long. : IAN ' S FRAMEWORK A country school teacher asked in an examination what the use of the skeleton was. One farmer urchin wrote, A man has a skeleton because if he didn ' t he would stand like a sack of oats.. . nother teacher asked her class what a sekeleton was and received the reply. A skeleton is a man with the meat picked oft ' . An American soldier in France was talking to some French children. He asked them what the French national song was and they replied. The Marseillaise. He asked for the British national hymn and they re])lied readily, God Save the King, but when he asked for the American national song they replied, Hail, Hail, the Gang ' s All Here. ■ ' A FELLER XEEDS A FRIEXD WHEX — Ex|)laining a joke that has gone over the top.

Make haste, cried Mother, as on galloped my pen ; Haste, echoed my heart, as the old clock struck ten. For on toward the morrow Time ' s swift footsteps sped. And large through the dark loomed the mid-years ahead .And all I remember is chime after chime, As I sat with my weary brain hunting a rhyme. And no voice was there praising this effort of mine, As I piled up the agony, line upon line. Till at last I decided with mutterings dark. That never by vtrse should I gain a good mark. Is.MiEL C.

The training of young men and women to help carry on the nation ' s immense activities is absolutely essential. If you have the educational and other necessary qualifications you can give your country very valuable service as a teacher. The Gregg teachers ' course is the most highly specialized training of its kind. It is to commercial teachers what a state normal is to the teachers of academic subjects. To the one about to enter the commercial teaching profession Gregg Normal train- ing is practically indispensable, while to the experienced teacher it gives new ideas and renewed enthusiasm that makes the work easier, insures effective results, and incidentally adds dollars to the salary check.
