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.
