Its ideals and conceptions of education are of the highest, and place it as one of the best colleges in the world preparing young men and women to take up the task of educating the youth of the country to be useful citizens and cultured men and women. The school is admirably located on the outskirts of the city, and housed in one of a group of three buildings. The main building contains the College itself, flanked on one side by Parker High School, and on the other by Parker Practice, in which the embryo teachers, under the eyes of selected critics, are given the practical experi- ence which supplements the theoretical work of the course. The activities of the school are not confined to the dry seeking after knowledge contained in books, but a broadening influence is introduced in the form of clubs of various kinds. Dancing, Glee, Athletic, etc., and our Fridy Social Hour, which .promote a spirit of amity and good fellowship obtainable in no other way. In the electives offered as pa rt of the training, can be found an outlet for any special talent which the students may have, and also leads to specialization in certain subjects for which they have shown marked aptitude. Under the leadership of Mr. Owens, whose progressive and practical work in behalf of the school has done so much to make it what it is, we expect to keep broadening the scope of the work until Chicago Normal College is absolutely the best teachers ' college in the world, bar none. ftMuJmU, THE EMBLEM pi educating the Ifomen.

With that settled, we can go on to a record of some of their deeds. This class might well be called the Victory Class, for it was during our reign that the U. S. fought and won the Great Word War. We entered the halls of this great Normal College just four months after war was declared and promptly set to work to do our bit in winning the war. We knitted, we sewed, rolled bandages, adopted French orphans, collected money for the Red Cross, helped in the Liberty Bond campaigns, gave up eating many things we liked, and just did all we possibly could. If we do say it ourselves, we think we did it remarkably well. Of course with such assistance the U. S. couldn ' t fail to win. And then, oh, how we did do our bit (?) with the noise, especially on the tuning up day, November 7, 1918, and when the boys came home we played flower-girls and had a splendid time. Besides these many outside interests we did find time to study once in a while. As per Normal custom, we left our note-books to be written up the night before they were due and then sat up until the wee sma ' hours completing them. Psychology experiments, education exams, geography topics, state reports, bug reports, like mumps, measles and chicken-pox, we had them all and valiantly survived. We loved (?) to write our plans, •e loved our critics, oiu practice work and our pupils. The first day of practice brought the usual pangs of fear and the last day threw us into deep sorrow. But through it all we have maintained our renowned joyous spirits and no sorrow however great could entirely- down us. And now we have come to the last days of our Normal school life. Within the chrysales that have held us there are stronger and stronger movements and in a few short weeks the members of the class of June, 1919, will emerge as glowing butterflies eager to try their wings in this new world that lies before them and endeavor by their superior wisdom to entrance the mortals around them and instil a small portion of it into the minds of the coming generation. Adieu, dear comrades. E. L. S. THE EMBLEM 15 Edna M. McCarty IV-R 3829 Maple Square Students ' Council, President Class ' 19, Junior Glee Club, N. W. W., N. C. A.

I registered at the Mammoth Springs Hotel. My eye wandered curiously over the page and at the top I noticed the names, Miss Margaret Powers and Miss Mar- garet Lynch. They sounded so familiar as to cause me to search my school-marm brain to remember where I had heard them before. Almost instantly I recollected that both of these young ladies had been warm friends of mine in the good days at Normal. That evening I met them and we had the most enthusiastic talk fest that I ever participated in. The talk ran back to Normal after we had discussed our present vocations and avocations for a while. We remembered how we had come to Normal for the first time on a day when the thermometer registered 14 degrees below. We remembered how there had been four sections, A. B. C. and D., and about one hundred students altogether. We remembered the advisors and our junior officers: President Janet Magill Vice-President Doris Mead Secretary Kathryx jVIoriarty Treasurer Helen Byrne And oh, the good times we had during those two j-ears — two N. C. A. A. dances, S. D. C. plays, and a prom which suggested its grand success but also the fi-rst col- lection of class dues. Our memories next went back to the Tuesday afternoons devoted to war work, knitting, sewing, surgical dressings, and Camp Scott. The mention of Red Cross at once suggested our Red Cross Parade to Grant Park and the War Exposition. How exciting it was to march before hundreds of spectators whom we felt sure were observing our good posture. Our Senior j ears saw the World ' s War brought to a glorious climax and we lived once more through the two stirring days of Nov. 7 and 11 — the mad rush to the Auditorium, the stamping and cheering, the sobs and cries. Amidst this emo- tional strain we found time, however, to draw together and elect our senior officers. President Lillian Plowright Vice-President Augusta Jockman Secretary Frances Wallace Treasurer Helen Byrne With the suggestion of practice we again livened up and recalled the horrors of assignments and first day practise. And then Graduation Day — that which shall be never forgotten. At times we remembered the work had seemed heavy and our troubles many but now these memories blended into our final conclusion that our two years at Normal were happy because of the numberless good times and friends. — Elizabeth Chapman.

And sent us to assembly To digest their rules galore. We had a very pleasant term, ' Tho we only paid our dues, And had a few short meetings, To talk about the news. We next were given sections. Some sad, some filled with glee, For those in E. H. K or F Had friends in L or G. There was a real election. When next the time came round; In primaries and polling sure Clerks and judges did abound. We soon were in our classes, And soon our books were bought, And everything from frogs to dates With precision we were taught. At organizing we were late. This class 1920. But when we did w ' e lost no time And officers were plenty. As result of this election. We kept jNliss Foley and Miss Brown, Miss Spira became vice-president. Miss Turnquist to jot things down.

THE EMBIEM 76 THE EMBLEM THE EMBLEM 77 THE EMBLEM m ' m0 . THE EMBLEM 79 •J UNI OK HISTORY- February 3rd of this year there entered an array of Normalites to be. Prob- ably one of the things that impressed us most was not the size of the school but the great amount and variety of work that was being accomplished. We all ' entered Normal College timidly and bashfully, but later regained the boldness and confidence of our High School Days. Among this number of prospective Normalites there were nine young men of whom you will hear an account of in the Manual Training Section. Early in the semester we were agreeably surprised when we received an invita- tion to a party given by the Lower Seniors in order that we might feel more at home. It would be useless to try to descrii , amount of pleasure we derived from this party. At the first meeting of the ch. s were elected. In this election the young women showed their demo by electing two young men. The result of the election was as follow o. President .William Sypniewski Secretary-Treasurer Donald Naden Delegate-at-Large Miss Moriarity The Lower Juniors have shown their activity by arranging the program for Decoration Day. The impression the Lower Juniors left behind them is one thing to be remem- bered. Not only in school activities but also in their studies the Lower Juniors have been a success. So far we have bowed to the leadership of the older classes. They have been here longer and have caught the spirit of Normal. We are trying to profit by their example in a meekness and humility becoming to those who should be seen and not heard. In a sense we have been measuring the course, preliminary to the real race which is to come. But now, as the semester draws to a close, we feel that we have found our pace and that we have the steady tride which will bring us over the line in 1921. We feel that the school has great traditions, and a great usefulness. And we are glad to have part in an organization which means so much to the schools of Chicago and the welfare of the entire city. Our motto is Chicago ' s own ' T will, and with this as our inspiration, together with the fine example of those who have gone before ; we feel that the Lower Juniors are good material for carrying forward the best traditions of the School.

Kindergarten Department OFFICERS 1918 President Alice Hayde Xice-Presiclent Jllia Barber Secretary D jaothy O ' Reilly Treasurer Norma Holm 1919 Julia Barber Julia Bluestein Margaret King Madeline Dunne Unlike other departments we kindergarteners have a club of our own. This makes it very easy for us to have many good times that we might not enjoy otherwise. One of our main sources of enjoyment are the performances which our more talented members seems perfectly willing to give to their less gifted sisters. A e have rivals of Galli-Curci, Ruth St. Denis, Airs. Vernon Castle, and any other renowned artist that can be mentioned. We find that we are equal to any emergency from playing Smiles and Mickey in assembly to outhning chap- ters in Democracy and Education. Our training is designed to prepare us for any emergency. We surely meet every kind in practice, from clay lessons to bead stringing. When we came back last September we learned that Mrs. Moulton would not be with us. We missed her greatly and watched with some trepidation for her successor. Miss Gorham proved so agreeable a surprise that we consider ourselves very luck) ' to have two such directors as Aliss Russell and she. The graduating class this year will number thirty-four kindergarteners, the !argest group on record at Normal. The succeeding classes, though, are much smaller but nevertheless they are not lacking in enthusiasm so that while there will be a falling off in number the department will forge ahead in quality if not in quantity. THE EMBLEM 83 84 THE EMBLEM Printing Printing Department and Manual Drawing September 1918, while the boys were answering the call to the Colors, the Chicago Normal,, for the first time in its history, offered the Printing Course to the young women of the College. Ten girls volunteered to follow the course: Margaret Coughlin, Eleanor Fleming, Marie Garvey, Anna Moore and Loretta Sullivan who graduate in June 1919; and Margaret Flynn, Margaret Merki, Georgia Merki, Margaret Murray and Eileen Ryan, who graduate in Febiuary 1920. On graduating these girls will receive an Elementary Certificate as well as a Printing Certificate. The Course has been very thorough and successful under the able guidance of Mr. Fred Thoran, to whom we feel very much indebted. Manual Training Department Did you ask, Where are the boys of Normal. ' Ask the Lower Juniors. They have twelve real honest to goodness boys in their class, and are they puffed up about it, well., maybe. These rare specimens of the genus homo are in the Manual Training De- partment, learning all the tricks of the trade of teaching the kiddies to make bookcases and candle-sticks for home consumption. So much appreciated are these super-men that already they have been award- ed two of the three coveted class offices, which is beaucoup appreciation say we. The Manual Training Department, piloted by Messrs. McMurray, Moiiow and Thoren, has written Finis to another very successful chapter of Normal history, and is already looking forward to another semester with the same enthu- eiasm which has characterized its past career. THE EMBLEM 85 86 THE EMBLEM Parker Parker Practice Is there a oirl at Normal who does not know of the Parker Practice School: If there is, one may be certain she has not been at Normal long. It is at this school that many of us get our first idea of teaching frci.x che teacher ' s standpoint. Parker is one of the three Junior High Schools in Chicago and the work hai proved very successful. The Junior High School is comprised of the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. All high school subjects are given, including foreign languages, algebra, etc. Supervised study is also a part of the program. Depart- mental work starts from the sixth grade and continues thru the Junior High School. Parker again comes to the front with its Deaf Oral department. Children come here from all parts of th city and remarkable work has been done in this line. The critic teachers are all very capable and the practice students are bene- fited greatly by being under their supervision. Another way in which the stud- ents are benefited is by the observation of work in all the grades,, which they are requested to do. This gives them a broader outlook on the scope of teaching. Parker is considered one of best schools in the city and under Mr. Hatfield ' s able direction it has made a name for itself. THE EMBLEM 87 The Carter School Normal girls assigned to practice at the Carter School are fortunate. One of the striking features about the school is the feeling of hearty co- operation between the principal, Nliss Lane, the teachers and pupils. Visitors readily notice the attention and quick response of the children toward both the critic and student teachers alike. This atmosphere created by the attention and response gives the student teacher a feeling of poise and con- fidence and the strained feeling, which often exists between teacher and class, soon passes a ' a ' . The school spirit — and there is one — is probably kept up by the clubs and athletics. An excellent orchestra has been formed by the pupils under the lead- ership of Aliss Alulro} ' . This orchestra is indeed the pride of the school. A large playground, g} ' mnasium and swimming pool enable the children to become enthusiastic over athletics. When there is enthusiasm in one thing it is likely to be found elsewhere. Because of this spirit of alertness and eagerness among the teachers and pupils and because of the help received, we students who have practiced there join in saying— LONG LIVE CARTER! So here ' s to Carter and each well known room. Where we taught and were taught and met with our doom. 88 THE EMBLEM ■SecoMO fhfv:- p7 sj Cf-ai p, ?f ii ey, 77yss anrressy, T iss eyon, 77r-s li te, V j G a 7, TA r- v.- P ysj 7 c ra s , SS Cor ' en, S3 t n , ' ny, fn is A-o J,, 7? ss PoiJ r, 77 ss iVZ J n isj fferrey, 77 ss CrrajharT?, f7 S} cjf borfA 55  v.-- sj o morr. s. 3 jhofi. ?? js etc re . j iS Jh y, r ss I yon . ?7 ss Panafrtfr-, Haines Haines Practice Any Normal girl should be happy if she is assigned to the Haines Practice School, for it is a very interesting ' and helpful experience for a student. The atmosphere at this school is different from any other school in the city. Italians and Sicilians comprise the greater part of the neighborhood and the children are very loving, though they do have to come to school to get their baths. A great deal of charity work has to be done here. It is a common occurrence to see the children coming with little more than enough to keep them warm, and the school tries to remedy these needs. A room is set aside in the building where the children get measured for shoes and clothing, under the direction of Miss Fischer. Medical attention is also given to those who need it. This improves the health of the whole neighborhood. The Penny Lunch System is carried on here too. The children take a gieat interest in it and a nourishing lunch is obtained for a few cents. This lunch consists of soup, sandwiches, milk and other substantial foods. The critics realize the difficulties of the practice students and are very s m- pathetic. It has been said they are as second mothers to the girls. We girls wish to thank Miss Daly and the critics at Haines for the help and pleasure they have given us THE EMBLEM 89 -PjJ p 90 THE EMBLEM T . uss FIschc Mediea ;alth of tl The Pe terest in insists of The en ithetic.

We have endeavored to make the Emblem a product of the entire college and to do this w have asked not only the Senior Classes, but also the Junior Classes, the Faculty, the Practice Schools and our Alumni to aid us. We Have had the heartiest cooperation from everyone we asked, ' ith this able assist- ance the Emblem of June, nineteen hundred and nineteen has survivd its nu- merous delays, many, many coiiimittee meetings., and Facultv censorship, and is now a hnished product. Although smaller than usual owing to existing conditions and decreased en- rollment in College, it is our hope and belief that it more than makes up in ex- cellence what it lacks in size. We ask you to consider, before you criticize adversely or otherwise, that we have tried to do our best, and that this is the year-book of the whole Xcn-mal College, and you have all helped, in a small or greater degree, to make it a success. Appreciation The Emblem Staff of 1919 wishes to acjcnowledge their obligation to the Faculty — notably J lr. Morrow, Mr. Detterer and Air. Hatfield for their ' aluable criticism and advise, and to the students and other contributors who have pro- moted the efficiency and helped to make the Emblem of ' 19 what it is. The printing department has been most helpful in printing all our printed matter, and the typewriting class has worked ver} ' hard to get our manuscripts ready for the printers. Everyone on the committees has worked faithfulh ' ., and it is due to their efforts that the book is what it is. 96 THE EMBLEM THE EMBLEM Emblem Executive Board Mr. Morrow ....

After the initiation, with the usual sackcloth parade, during which the Seniors found it a rather difficult task to retain their senior teachiferous dig- nit} ' , plans were made for the big play. The judges had little trouble in select- ing the cast, as there is talent galore in the club. But here is where the trials and tribulations of our poor actresses began, in other words the rehearsals. In Jan- uary, Oscar Wilde ' s Lady Windemere ' s Fan and in May, J. Palgrave Simpson ' s A Scrap of Paper were triumphantly presented. And now the S.D.C. closes another successful year in its existence and adds glory to its name, especially as a goodly portion of the proceeds were given to a just cause — The Armenian Relief. To Miss Freeman we are greatly indebted, for it was her untiring aid and assistance that made the ear a success. We would also like to extend a word of thanks to our honorable judges — Air.

Because of her sudden death, a few days before the concert, the musical world lost a charming gem-like link in its golden chain of artists.

On the occasion of a banquet given in honor of an Educational Commission visiting the city, the president of the Wom.en ' s City Club invited us to sing.

Have you ever played it. ' Don ' t you think it great fun: The girls belonging to the tennis club think it is, if we can judge at all by the number out last fall and this spring. There are other inducements besides just fun! the fine outdoor exercise, the new friends one makes and the N.C.A.A. points to be won. In the seme finals (1918) Esther Hanson, the champion received 400 points and Estelle Cox, second place, received 200 points. The other two contestants, Julia Bluestein and Jeanette Goldstein each received 100 points. In the doubles Esther Schmidt and Marion Challenger showed what a nne team they made by winning, thereby receiving 200 points each. Marguerite Foster and Clara Ives were the losers and each received 100 points. 112 THE EMBLEM Hockey Ci The Hockey Club Last semester about forty eager girls assembled at the Hamilton Park field to learn the art of manipulating the hockey stick. Miss Jones was our enthu- siastic and efficient coach. Our officers were: President .... Florence Tatro Secretary . . . Elizabeth Chapman Senior Captains . Esther Odenbrett, Margaret Gormaly Junior Captains . Marion Clohesy, Dorothy O ' Reilly The too contending senior teams were formed on which all the seniors and some of the juniors played. The remaining juniors played on two other contending teams. There were all too many times that we could not play because bad weather made the field unfit for practice and I ' m sure we all felt sorry when the bulletin board showed the notice, No hockey. Early in December the junior team and the senior team were formed and a practice game played. The next Thursday we played off our final game, the seniors winning to the tune of 4 to 3. The All-star team was chosen as follows: Center forward Right forward Left forward Right wing Left wing Center half back Right half back Left half back Right full back Left full back Goal Elizabeth Rarity Margaret Gormaly Marion Clohesy Florence Tatro Marion Challenger Marion Wolf Esther Odenbrett Dorothy Ayers Esther Hanson Lillian Borgfeldt Nora Collins thp: emblem 113 Ini Indoor Baseball President Senior Manager Senior Captain Junior Manager- Junior Captain Coaches GOLDIE ElSF.L AIattie Ryan AIarjorie Kendall Ruth Webb Dorothy Price Marion Challenger Eileen ' all Batter up ! P-l-a-y- b-a-1-1 ! Last fall there were two indoor baseball teams. Thev played practice games at least twice a week and finally fought the final game in which the junior and senior teams sought to win the championship. The prize was awarded to the seniors in the end. The juniors proved good losers and contended themselves with the thought that they would be champs when they had become seniors. Both teams are working hard this year with the Marion Challenger and Eileen Wall as coaches. There is the greatest display of pep and good playing by all the enthusiasts who have been practicing regular since the first of May. We feel certain that when The White Sox admit women on their team there will be a good showing of play- ers from the Chicago Normal College. All-to-gether-girls ! Are you ready.

Dorothy O ' Reilly Secretary - . . . . Dorothy Ayers The attendance on the hikes this year has been gratifying to say the very least. We do not knou ' whether to ascribe this to the fifty points given for per- fect attendance on all hikes or to the much desired heightening of cheek tints. We are inclined to attribute it all to the I ' m dead to the world attitude one has after returning from a good, long jaunt. These trips have been taken to various places on the South side including Washington Park, Sherman and Jackson Parks. The last long hike to Beverly Hills was a great success. How could it be otherwise when eats were a part of the program.? The hikes have been announced by some of the catchiest and prettiest notices that have graced the bulletin board this year. The mystery is, that in spite of these gay bits of information, one half of the club went to Jackson Park and an- other to Washington Park on the very first hike. It was a bad start, but it never happened again. Those who hike are never too tired to hike an extra block to a bakery and those who have not hiked this year are asked to get in on the fifty points cind rosy cheeks next semester. We hike along the high •ays And we stroll in woody lanes, Though we come home tired and aching Our pep and go ne ' er wanes.

If } ' ou wish deliverance from an over- whelming assignment, luncheon cost reduced to almost nothing, rules on how to conduct yourself within these sacred walls, or an} ' thing at all, just ask the Stud- ent ' s Council and they will do their best to help }-ou out. But all joking aside the importance of this organization cannot be over- emphasized and their work is becoming of more and more varied character. We have attempted a great deal and as is usual have accomplished some of the things and have been forced to drop some. We tried to see that the washrooms were kept in a good condition., the lunchroom managed in the best wa ' for ever} ' one concerned, we have drawn up a general outline for a year ' s assembly programs and offered suggestions in regard to the method of carrying it out and have presented this to the faculty for consideration. asked for and received from the facult} ' the rules in regarding to warnings and ffunk notices and have thru a resolution caused a statement to be made that flunk notices are to be sent out before a student goes in to practice. We have attempted various plans for pro- moting school spirit, first by means of a weekly paper and then by a school orchestra. The first plan could not be carried out because of the interference with the Eimblem and the second plan is still in the process of being carried out. Before the year is over we hope to accomplish still more, first the Council has recommended that a Course in Social Discipline, similar to se ' eral lectures given the different classes, form a part of the regular Xormal College curriculum and secondly, that students be given a mark in each course as that course is completed, considering practice work as a course. We have worked to bring this Council as close as possible to that situation where the Council and Faculty are working hand in hand to do all they can for the good of the school. Altho we ha -e failed in some places yet we feel that we lave certainly gone one step higher towards this ideal and have formed a stronger, firmer foundation on which future Councils ma - work. — E. L. S. 118 THE EMBLEM N®1SMM. War Relief In spite of the armistice the allotments of yarn which were announced from time to time were eagelry knitted into the various articles by the students. Edna AlcCarty was student head of the War Relief Activities. All were interested in the especially good series of talks delivered by various speakers. On Monday, April the fourteenth, Miss Cassette spoke in the auditorium to the student body and faculty of the Chicago Normal College. The meeting came to order more promptly than usual. An air of expectancy pervaded the audience. We had learned previously of the prospective visit of our honored guest and were anxious to see and hear the woman who had won the Cross of the Legion of Honor. In spite of the quiet unassuming manner in which Miss Cassette entered, there was a spontaneous greeting of applause. Miss Cassette is a Chicago woman. She spent many years previous to the war in Paris as an artist. At the time the war broke out,, she was on a visit in America, but on hearing the news, she returned immediately to Paris and offered her services. At first she did just minor things, but it was not long before she found her real place. Her complete knowledge of anatomy together with her ingenuity helped her jn inventing many mechanical appliances for the relief of the wounded. In the course of the war, as she said, she had experienced all the agonies of the flesh. When she reminded herself of it her voice faltered and the slight twist of her mouth became more pronounced. Her manner of speaking was so calm and quiet that she simply held her audience every moment of the time, and if it had been her intention to deliver a message, she would have done it more successfully. — R- C.

Sumner 5635 Emerald Avenue Isabel E. Richman ' entworth 5172 George E. Beers Treasurer Joseph B. Shine William Bachrach Every graduate of the Chicago Normal College should be an active member of the Alumni Association. There is work to be done in the school system of Chicago, work that only an organization of the type of the Alumni Association can do, and it is the duty and honor of every interested graduate to show his or her colors by not only joining the Association but working with it. In the past the annual Chicago Teachers ' Day program has been perhaps the largest thing that the Association has attempted. New fields are opening up however and the plans for the year beginning September 1919 are full of possi- bilities and opportunities for the young and old teacher alike. Our membership is large, but it ought to be one hundred per cent; The dues are nominal, fifty cents a year, and with the co-operation of the new grad- uating class a great and new start should be made in September. ttl Education and the educational activities of the Chicago school system are lightly regarded by the public. Our task is to advance the standard of modern education and raise the public school teacher to a higher professional level. To win, we must present a solid front! ffl JOIN THE ALUMNI ! 120 THE EMBLEAI Our Class Day Programme Did -e ha e one wonderful presentation of our talent: A ' ell it surely was. That orchestra was our ■ery own. Absolutely yes. That dancing number was extremely effective — don ' t ou think. ' Such costuming, and scenic effects. And wasn ' t Story land the cutest ever: — Miss — did make the cutest Jackie Horner — and Simple Simon — wasn ' t he a scream. ' And really when that Sum- mer Girl Minstrel affair ended, I ' ' as limp from laughing. Funny — why I could live through the whole thing at least nine times more — couldn ' t } ' ou. ' But the plav — it was so real — ' icitliiu the experience of the individual — don ' t you know. ' ' But sav — don ' t } ' ou think the numbers were brought together beautifulh ' , hv that little oh! — you know, the first scene where evervone was rushing madly about trying to get read} ' for the Rehearsal. I thotight that was clever. All this cleverness can be attributed to the Seniors — assisted by the facult ' . burely each did his part and ma}-be Class Day didn ' t go over the top with a bang! Wow!!! — M. G. Sheridan. Science There are girls who start practice in Englisl There are girls who start practice in Art, But the ones who get science to teach in. Are the ones who will push at a cart. In his cart you will carry some sponges With a box full of flax seed to sprout. And en top you will carry some pavement — Enough dirt for each one on your route. You will stop at each child and distribute All your diggings of nights and of years; You will dote on the life of a lima And exhibit a grapefruit with tears. For by now you are puffing and tired. And } ' ou pray for strength from on high, If } ' ou practice in nature in winter Mien no bird and no flower is nigh. THE EMBLEM 121 Snaps of Normal Xornial: Well let me see. Yes, as I look back I have a few impressions — pictures let us call them — which I can recall to mind. First, is the picture of the building — big stateh ' and domed. Did you ever stop to think how appropriate that dome is: Oh yes, and take careful note of that one big elm tree on the — what does the school song call it: — ' the tree-filled campus. Many is the time I have pointed it out to unsuspectmg classmates ! O ODCDQaac3aE3oaaoQCJc:% :;2. But let us look at the assembly — the place where we first meet the faculty as a whole (:). How light and charming it is! And how much more charming and light when filled by the future torches of the young and innocent. Even as I looked back I can hear the sweet voices singing Love ' s Old Sweet Song or ' A Thousand Years under the guidance of the music department, and the gentle snores of the good keeping perfect time to the vibrating voice of a speaker lectur- y( ing on some fascinating subject. Oh hu-u-umm! Pardon my yawning, the mere thought affects me. 122 THE EMBLEM The next picture Is rather dark, but if you stop a minute I think you will soon be able to discern a few things. Yes, it is room 200 and that figure up in front is Mr. Owen. You can see by his attitude that he is carefully analysing and bringing out some point. He doesn ' t seem to make it sharp enough however, for it does not penetrate the audience very far. The first row appears in a pretty lert state but the last — well you can see for yourself. Speaking of states of mind brings out a picture of other states. This picture includes a tantalizingly in- quisitive (about stately things) person of rather large proportions backed up by maps of — what are they: Massachusetts and Maine, or California and x la- bama. (Would that Mrs. Cook were here to note the beautiful connection I made between the second and third picture.) Ah, here is a picture of — well, I think I ' d call it The Den of the Lamb in Wolf ' s Clothing Miss , what did we do last time. Psyc hologically speak- ing I think Lve called up enough associations to warrant a passing on to the next picture. Here I see a table with something stretched out on a pan. Beside the table stands a woman with some- thing like a -a- knife,, I guess. Listen! If any of you feel faint you are free to open the window. (I guess I ' ll leave.) Oh, what a relief to turn that picture over! Dear me, there ' s just one more! I hope this last is a nice one and looks more pleasant. Yes, it does, extremely pleasant, for it appears to be a large sunny room, so artistic! Pictures, vases, etchings, embroidery work all about and even the blackboards are covered with designs! What memories this picture does bring back! ' Twas here I learned one of the greatest lessons in life. It thrills me as I think of it! And to think it is emboldied in one word. Do I remember it? How could I ever forget it? Yes, I ' ll tell it to you that you, too, may take it out into the world with you. ' Tis POSSIBILITIES. THE EMBLEM 123 LEAGUE OF (LNDIG) NATIONS. We, the upper seniors of the class ' 19, in order to raise the standard of practice work, estabHsh justice between critic and student, promote schoolroom tranquility, provide for the student ' s defense, promote the student ' s welfare, in- sure schoolroom democracy for ourselves and all future classes, do offer these fourteen points to the facult} ' and student body of the Chicago Normal College. I Let no critic teacher appear in the presence of the practice student with fountain pen and pad in hand. II Let no critic spoil the sweet disposition of a defenseless practice stu- dent by harsh, cruel or unjust criticism. Ill Let no critic, regardless of her Ph.D ' s or Q.E.D. ' s, consider herself an authority on modern dress. IV Let no critic teacher send more than six warnings to any one student during her ten weeks of proctice. V Let every practice school have a lounging and rest-room where the critic may retire while practice student is teaching. VI Let all critic teachers have their rooms sufficiently well disciplined so that the practice student will not be annoyed during the work by mischievous pupils. VII Let all final marks of practice work be submitted to practice student for her approval. VIII Let every practice student have one day a week to visit her faculty crush. IX Let no janitor work be done b} ' students. X Let no student teach her entire assignment in less than fifteen minutes. XI Let no practice student ' s side effect extend more than six inches. XII Let students receive assignments in subjects with which they have at least a passing acquaintance. XIII Let student ' s name be placed on monthly payroll during practice work. XIV Let those who survive the two terms of practice receive a distin- guished service medal.

How changed everyone now did seem, For, just down the hall, stood a lady, not tall, Aliss Gallagher acting as dean; Our friend Mr. Sears, then filled me with fears, When in large, loud, and threatening terms, He yelled out ' This class just never will pass Aly test upon angiosperms. Then cj-me Air. Clark Who drew a fine arc, Why Noah ' s arc, quoted he. But sly Air. Hinkle, whose eye had a twinkle. Just winked at us all, and said Gee!
