To an student of the Chicago Xormal College, hoping to develop her intellectual ])o v- ers in a swifter way than is afforded by mere study, we leave the library index, with a list of psychology references to lend added zest. II. For the purpose of maintaining our rcconiniendable order in class meetings, we ka r our knowledge of Parliamentary Law. III. To all future seniors we leave our diaries, to serve as a model for students slnni- ning the primrose path and striving to follow the straight and narrow. I ' . We leave to all students Kmnu l. with its animals caged and uncaged. ' . We leave behind us for all to enjoy our lockers, but one clause we must insert here, watcli that trouble is not ])ecping through in . ' o cniber. b ' ebruary, April and June. 1.

CLASS OFFICERS Bernice McDermott Loyola Hvla r inia iuoore CLASS HISTORY JUXE, Like the history nf our country, which is divided into four main periods, namely, the Kcvohitionary War, the Civil War, the Spanish-American ar and the World War, our own class history is similarly divided into four periods. The first semester, we were given the name of Lower Juniors, Ijut were better known as Freshies : the second semester, when our world seemed large and we had gained a little recognition ; then our third semester, when we were given the higher title of Lower Seniors and were able to help our under classmates, and the last semester when came the greatest struggle of all. As the world looked toward America, so we looked to Normal College to lead us to victory. Our class met for the first time on September 3rd, 1921. We saw that our class was numerically large and later found out that it was large intel- lectually. Our greatest achievement as Lower Juniors was the Christmas program, which was pre- sented in the Auditorium. Having made such a wonderful beginning, we brought the first semester to a close by electing Grace Huening as president ; Marguerite Thometz, vice president ; Catharine Healy, secretary, and Kathleen Conway, treasmer. Under the competent direction of Catharine Hraly. Mary Quinn, Lydia Casey and .Mice Dnlu-rl) wl ' started our second semester. W ' e were now alilc to distinguish Mr. Smith from Mr. Hinkle, also tu acquire a bowing acquaintance with the seniors. e soon began to distinguish ourselves in athletics. 1923 Many made the ALL STAR TEAMS in Basketball, Baseball and Hockey. We studied too. Ve wrote note books, passed intelligence tests and took care of rabbits. As lower Seniors, we elected Mary Quinn pres- ident, with Bernice McDermott, Margaret Theiss and Irene Swanson as her aids. Many tried out for the Senior Dramatic Club and much talent we be- lieve was left by the wayside. The time for our practice period had arrived and although it was hard to leave Normal, it was still harder to leave our newly found friends. W ' e are Upper Seniors now safely on the way to the end of the rainbow with Bernice McDermott as leader, Loyola Highland, Madeline Kelly and Virginia Moore constantly by her side. To our patient teachers we owe much gratitude for their help in making our character. They will always hold a big corner in our hearts. Oh ! this has been the busiest and happiest year of all And as it nears its closing, our Father Time we ' d call. To stay him on his onward course, till we have basked awhile In liKn,Mnp Jkuiim ,ne moie Mink, Ficim the fi lends we lo e whom we part. For the smiles and fncn longest in the heart! .f school life nice .McDcniintt Margaret Theiss Irene Swanson
