THE ALUMXI Greetings, graduates! ou ' ll be joining our glorious ranks soon, and we ' ll be very glad to welcome you. Leaving Normal was sorry business for us, and sorry business it will be for nou, but we assure . cni that the good times the class had will not end with graduation. Now that cju are a graduate you are eligible for membership in (iur Alma Alatsr Associa- tion. We hope every graduate will be in our midst next year. We not only assure you a good social time, but also of helping you profession- ally. The latter we try to do especially on Homecoming or Teacher ' s Day, which is held en the third or fourth Saturday of AIa -, each year. This ' ear our Homecoming Day, which was held on May 21, was very successful. The pro- gram started at nine o ' clock in the morning, ended at three o ' clock, and was followed by a dance in the Arts Gymnasium. Ve cannot leave Homecoming Da without saying something about the da ' s educational pro- gram. The peculiar significance of the day lies in the fact that all of the numbers are olun- tary; that they represent some of the best work that is being done in the Chicago Public Schools; and it is the work that is being stressed and appro ed by the present school administration. Surely no teacher can let such an opportunity pass by. The program included dramatics, music, school assemblies, swimming, art, science exhibi- tions, class demonstrations in arithmetic, visual education, reading, and indi idualized instruc- tion. Most of the isitors carried a vay many new ideas. Even if some got only one new principle or method that could be applied in his or her teaching, wasn ' t the day well spent? We hope that the classes that are graduating this ear will seize the opportunity offered by Homecom- ing Day, next year. The social events of the Association are quite diversified, thus insuring all its members a good lime. On June 11, the Association had a basket outing at Palos Park. Ask those that were there about it. ' ou will find that the purposes of the Asso- ciation are worthwhile; that the topics of the ensuing year are promising and worthy of your help and approval ; in short, the objecti es and program of the Association merit your support and membership. Will you join us and share tin- fun and work of this Association ' s best ' vear? The prograi this ear is: August Dance.
