Thus at the beginning I offer my humble apology of my inability to do justice to Our Class 13. It was on a sultry September day in the year 1910, that a band of stu- dents, Our Class, began their pilgrimage in search of the fountain of knowledge at C. S. N. On our arrival we were met by the Faculty and upper classmen of the Normal. Everything was all very new and strange to us, but with the assistance and kindness of our beloved Dr. J. George Becht we were all made to feel very much at home before we had spent many hours at the Normal. After a few weeks a meeting was called and we organized as the Junior Class. Of course, like all other Juniors, we soon began to feel our importance but this was quickly taken out of us. On all sides we were classed as the Greenies. The Seniors dedicated a little poem to us which was as follows: — I stood upon the mountain And looked upon the plain, I saw a lot of green stuff — I thought ' twas waving grain; I looked a little closer And thought it must be grass. But, goodness! to my horror, It was the Junior Class. The Middlers sang it to us in these few touching lines: — We pass the green Juniors by With their silly little grin. We resented this and it was with pain that we realized our inferiority. We resolved to be meek and unoffensive only for a time, during which period we worked with new zeal and a stronger incentive than before. Our first appearance before the public was in the Gymnastic Exhibition. This made us feel that we were a real part of the School. The next event of note was our Junior Promenade. This was a bril- liant affair on the campus and we received much praise for making it such a success. Finally there came the State Board of which we had heard so much. Every recommended Junior passed successfully and thus ended our first year ' s work. On our return the following September a few of our class-mates were absent from our ranks but many new faces appeared to fill the vacancies. We entered upon our second year with more confidence and self-reliance than did we the previous year. Now we were Middlers and had, as such, be- gun to feel the importance of our station, and the Seniors likewise began to feel our increased strength and dignity. Especially was this manifested when we refused to have our picture taken under their banner. During the winter term we gave, in way of entertainment, an Operetta, Miss Bob White. This was a great star in our crown. Many of the Faculty said it was without doubt the best entertainment ever given by any previous class. It was such a hit that we were requested to give it a second time. We underwent again the strain of State Board and the Campus Pageant and very successfully closed our second year. Now we are the Dignified Senior Class, the largest that has ever been enrolled in C. S. N. Thus far we have met with no failures. In all athletic games we have been victors over the other classes. In the Gymnastic Ex- hibition the Seniors were the center of attraction. Our play Ingomar could not have been better. Likewise in every undertaking we have done our best, and no one can question our superiority. But now our days at C. S. N. are growing fewer day by day and soon we shall stand in array for the final survey. And we hope that the Faculty and the world at large will deem us worthy of the honor soon to be bestowed upon us. Through our school days we have stood strong and undivided, although we have suffered severe strains when everything went dead wrong, yet we have always remembered the words of Longfellow — Oh, fear not in a world like this. And thou shalt know erelong. Know how sublime it is To suffer and be strong. Class Poem As the raindrops come together; Large ones, small ones, of all sizes, From the hilltops, from the valleys. Among the flowers, in leafy bowers. Or from stony dismal rock beds. And join to make the sparkling brook. So we came from town and farmhouse, We, the class of 1913. Joined in pleasure and m labor. We began our sailing gaily. In the channels of our school life. At the Clarion Normal School, Flowing thru the grassy meadows Wooded with the trees of knowledge. On the banks grow flowers o( friendship Making bright the future pathway. And as we babbled merrily In brilliant wit and humor sparkling, ' et we ne ' er forgot our labor. Toiled on earnest and persistent As the water on the bed rock Chose our motto to that purpose. Made it, Labor omnia vincit, And kept it truly to the end. When we wished an emblem for us. That should be our banner royal. Be a banner true in battles. We chose our colors blue and white. That stand for truth and purity. Made them ours to be forever Loyal to, upholding them by word. But more by eve ry de of ours. 22 Thus in ever widening channels Wended we a varying course Through woodland glades of quiet work. Past flowery dells of joy and pleasure. And, if, perhaps o ' er rocks of strife We tarried turbulent awhile Beneath the shadow of discord, ' Twas to love the sunshine better. When we come at last to where We join the broader stream of life. The wider view and vision bright Of greater power will make us glad. But in midst of best success In future years come memories Of the sweetest part of the journey At the dear Normal School. Mabel Jefferson.

Helen Susanna Allen got her first vista of the world in Titusville. Pa. Her very early life was spent there, but later she went to live in New Castle, Pa. Here she received her education, being a graduate of the New Castle High School. In the Spring of 1912, she passed the Junior-Middle exams at Slippery Rock Normal. On September 12,1912, after a delightful trip on the B. O. R. R., and one of those never-to-be-forgotten trips from Clarion Junction, our little Helen wended her way to Seminary Hall where she enrolled as a member of the Class of 1913. Helen is a bright, industrious girl and her winning ways have won many friends for her. Alice Alter, Homestead, Pa. One Spring morning in 1911, a little girl with chestnut-brown curls and laughing brown eyes, arrived in Clarion from Homestead, where she had been attending High School. She liked the bright prospect at C. S. N. S, so well that she decided to join the class of 1913. She soon starred in Physiology class by telling the Professor that jello must not be cooked. She firmly believes in our class motto Labor omnia vincit, and therefore works very hard. When she leaves C. S. N. S. she intends to be a school marm for a few years at least. R.4YMOND W. Anderson, Ben, Big Run. Pa. President F. L. S.; Middler Baseball; Senior Basket Ball; Sequelle Staff: Y. M. C. A. Raymond received his preparatory education at the Big Run Grammar and High Schools. Hans decided to further his education, and came to C. S. N. S. in the Spring of 1912. and joined the class of 1913. He IS an excellent student and ranks among the highest in his class. His favorite pastime is hiding Supplee in the clothes press from Bixler. Raymond is undecided about his future but we feel sure thai he will be successful in whatever profession he chooses. Mary Winifred Atwell. Brockwayville. Pa. This lllllf red-headed girl came In the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alwell on one of ihose cold March days which we call Si. Palrlck ' s Day. She was born al Sugar Hill, and when small was very fond of roaming over Sugar Hill and picking -Sweel Williams, her favorlle flower, and they were verv !carce. In the Winter when the Sweet Williams were all gone and her heart was so sad. her Mother and Father took her out West, where there would be no more winter. Here she received hei early education in the Montesano school, but there seemed to be some attraction back al dear. old. sweet. Sugar Hill; so she returned in the spring of 189? lo continue her picking of ' Sweet Williams. This she did. until one day she and another red-headed girl from the same place slid into Clarion feeling the need of more education, and are now leaving to pick Sweet Williams forever. Her favorite saying is. Oh! Darn it. my rat won ' t slay on. At LAN M. Baker. Oliver, Lotlsville. Pa. ■. M. C. A. Cabinet; Y. M. C. A.; Orchestra; Basket Ball. Allan, who goes by the name of Oliver. came to Clarion Norir the Sprino of 1911. (after having annoyed the teachers at home), to the class of 1913. Allan is not seen traveling with the female sex often, but It is not .is fault. His chief amusement is Basket Ba which he is a star (?). Allan is one of the boys of old ' 76. motto is You ' re exceedingly wide open.

Not more than twenty-five years ago, in the beautiful city of Clarion, this great genius put in his appearance. After pestering the Model School for several years, he entered the Normal. Harold, altho ' small in stature, is mighty in athletic ability. After his mighty achievement on the athletic field, he always lakes a ' rub down in sevenly-tue with ■ ' Emery dust.

This maiden, whom we call Baugh, is one of the best nalured ones of the class of ' 13. She is one of the three who repre- sent the class of ' 10 of the Marienville High School, at the C. S. N. S. She IS a member of the Y. W. C. A., the F. L. S.. and the Glee Club; she has also distinguished herself by her famous paintings. Her favorite sport is skating. We predict great success for her chosen lite work, even if it be caring for Sweet William. Turner B. Beatty. ' Tuck. Clarion. Pa.

D., in the beautiful little city of Scotch Hill. At the tender age of three he emigrated to Clarion. After completing his common school course he entered the Normal. After attending Normal for a year, Dad appointed him leader o( the Beatty Gang. This aggregation consisted of the most ambitious students in the school, at that time. The classes which they preferred were Athletics, Fresh-Air, and Excitement. We are glad to say that Turner has reformed and the Beatty Gang has dispersed. 1 am sure his many friends wish him a very suc- cessful career in h-s future life. Roy R.

But since that lime he says ' 1 is far more pleasant than ever before. Well, here ' s hoping all kinds of success and we do not need to worry as we know by ork in school he will make good in life. Albert Bentley. Corydon, Pa. One cold wintry day a baby boy was found on the porch of the Bentley home. He did not appear to be worth raising, but nevertheless they kepi him. and now he ' s known as Uncle Ben. He tormented his Mother for a few years and then began to annoy the school marms of the public schools. Desiring to continue his education, he entered the Corydon High School where he graduated in 1911. In some mys- terious way. he meandered to C. S. N. S. in the fall of 1911, and being delighted with the surroundings, decided to stay. He did the course in two years. His chief hobby is Physics, but he thinks he ' ll enjoy teaching better if he has Model Youngsters. His favorite expression is Let her go ' Gallagher ' . We are sure that he will make a success in whatever he undertakes. Mildred M. Bole, North ' Warren, Pa. Born and lived in North Warren, she finally broke her bonds and made her way to C. S. N. S. in the spring of 1910. She deserted the class of 1912, in order to honor the ' 13 ' s. She is a member of the ' ■. W. C. A. and Franklin Literary Society. Early in the year, she acquired the habit of sitting on the window-seal, and later developed a strong affinity for the bell-lower. Mildred always lets her light so shine that others may see it. It has even been seen at 2 o ' clock in the morning. After graduating, she intends to leach, but for a short lime only, for we think she has another prospect in view. May she have great success. Martha Bovaird, Mart, ' Brockwayville, Pa. Mart received her education at the sweel town of Sugar Hill. After receiving all the instruction that that institution and the natives could imparl, she entered Brockwayville High. She was graduated from here in the Spring of 1911 and in the Fall of 1911 arrived at ihis grind, being only two weeks late. Since then her chief occupation has been collecting pieces of blackberry pie and drying them under the radiator. She expects to donate them to her friends as souvenirs of C. S. N. S. Another of her peculiarities is catching mice. At the mere mention of them she mounts our make-believe dresser and proceeds to demolish the animals. She has one great quality, brightness, due to the color of her hair. 29 Flossie M. Braden, Cooksburg. Pa. Long years ago ( ), Flossie arrived at Cooksburg and since ihen no other place is worthy of mention. Barney came lo C. S. N. S. in 1911 and indeed proved faithful to the class of ' 13. She has a remark- able talent for speaking and acting. Besides taking part in the Middle ear Class Play, she has been an active member of the B. L. S., also an ardent advocate of Anti-Woman Suffrage Movement. She IS very brilliant — in Physics — but was never known to go skip- ping{ ). In fact, she is a model child. Barney could not thrive on ' Dad Noll ' s eats, so she found a substitute, Campbell ' s Pork and Beans. She has chosen leaching as her life ' s work but we are in doubt as to how long she will teach — especially if she remains in Forest Co. Clar.a J. Brady, Scotch Hill, Pa. This, our nut brown maiden, was born in the prosperous and enter- prising village of Scotch Hill, twelve miles north of Clarion. ■Wayward as the Minnehaha, With her moods of shade and sunshine. Eyes that smiled and frowned alternate. From the water-fall we named her Minnehaha, Laughing ' Water. Brady ' s early education was absorbed from the mosses of Scotch Hill Academy. Since attending C. S. N. S. she has shone as a star in her classes especially in German. We are proud that our Clara is a prominent member of the Mandolin Club. She is also an artist (she draws the boys). But — what does Clara not do? As a kinder- garten teacher she has made her mark. Ab actii ad posse valet illatio. Leone Edythe Broadhead. Leonee. New Caslle, Pa. Leone Edythe Broadhead entered the Senior Class of C. S. N. S. m the Fall of 1912. after taking the Junior-Middle Exams, at Slippery Rock Normal, in the Spring of 1912. She has entered heartily into all the activities of school life, and she is a good student, being broad- minded, as her name suggests. Leone is tall, fair, and dignified but at the proper times she throws off her dignity, and is just a jolly good school-mate. Before entering Normal, she taught for two years in the New Castle Public Schools after having been graduated from the High School of that place. Gladys Calhoun, Bis Run, Pa.

S.; Varsity ombs Part .ctly Pris dness ind n Y, M. C. A. Basket Ball (Chief Guard); Y. M. Cabinet; Sequelle Staff; Old Maids Bench. Lee is a mighty good fellow as everybody knows for he holds the honorable position ' as Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. He ,s also dis- tinguished as the star player in the Y. M. Basket Ball Team. Lee is very short and stubbed but, as the old proverb says, good stuff comes in small packages. (So does poison.) Lee is very popular, especially among the girls, because he ne er goes with the same girl twice. He has been mingled with the fair sex for such a long time that he has quite well learned the art of painting. Nevertheless, there is no doubt but that Lee will be in the head ranks in time, as he is a good, kind hearled. and ever helping friend of the needy. Mary Hallock Campdell, R. F. D. No. 3. New Bethlehem. Pa. Burns ' Highland sweetheart had not brighter eyes or merrier smile than our own Clarion County Mary. Her chief ailment has been home- sickness, pining for Bill. After trying skipping with C , and finding no relief she sought refuge in her aunt ' s home, where she practices the culinary art to her heart ' s content. For the benefit of prospective suitors, we reveal the secret that her favorite dish is baked beans and country ham. From chance remarks, we learn that hrr favorite studies are German and Physics (?). and the diversion she longs for is a country school, where she can have a daily outing with •Bill. Marv Pearle Campbell, Clarion, Pa. Pearle was born in Clarion, and has always been a resident here. She is anolher representative! of the Campbell family in the Class of 1913, but bears no relationship to the preceding ones. Pearle was gradu- ated from the Clarion H.gh School in the class of 1911, and decided to continue her education by entering the Class of 1913. She is longing for vacation time, when she can go lo Ene where her heart has been all year. Pearle is a bright little maiden, and we have no doubt but that she will make her mark in the future. Charles D. Carrier, Chuck, Summerville, Pa. Varsity Baseball 12, 13; Varsity Football; Class Basket Ball ' 12; F. L. S. Chas., better known as ' Chuck, first began his activities in the middle 90 ' s, in Summerville, Pa. Chuck attended school at Summerville, but finally joined the ' 13 ' s in the beginning of their Junior year. Chuck IS a very enthusiastic and energetic baseball player. He is also a very ardent autoist. and his favorite themes for conversation are automobiling and girls (especially Chuck ' s Girl). Chas. IS undecided in what he will engage when he leaves school but is thinking seriously of engaging (?) in the Banking Business. How- ever, no matter what he undertakes, we feel sure of his success, and the best wishes of his many friends go with him. Myra Carrier. Summerville, Pa. She ' s not as demure as she looks. In the Fall of 1910 Myra ' s career began in the Normal as a Junior Myra liked to visit home once in every two weeks; we wonder why ( ) Myra is very industrious, and is greatly interested in Cicero as is shown in her sleepmg hours, when she cries, Oh, Ye Immortal Gods, where on earth are we? A specialty of Myra ' s was entertaining her friends in the clothes- press after ten o ' clock. Of course she always served refreshments, loo. Her plans for the future are rather unsettled but we know if she gets along as well m years to come as she has in years past, she will find life ' s pathway smooth. Dessie F. Chamberlin, Richardsville, Pa. A wind came up out of the sea. And said, ' Oh mists, make room for me. ' Jefferson County may well be proud of its little representative in the person of Des whose height is 5 ft. With her cheerful disposi- tion she scatters sunshine wherever she is mingled among her class- mates. She was undecided what to do for some lime, and finally de- cided to come to C. S. N. S. and join the class of ' 13 where she has maintained a good standing in social life. She is a member of the Y choir, and also of the Glee Club. One of her daily habits, formed at C. S. N.. is being late for breakfast. Wake up Des, heed the rising bell, and this habit shall readily be overcome. Zelma Chamberlin. Trix, Richardsville. Pa. One of the members of the class of 1913 at C. S. N. S. is Trix. A fine fall day in the 90 ' s. she made her appearance at Richardsville with (he falling of the leaves. After graduating from the grammar school, she decided to come to Clarion Normal and join the ' 13 ' s, of which she is a very faithful member. She is also a member of the Glee Club. Though modest and digpified she never refuses o share in a feast where there are chances of something to eat. Her favorite study is Public Speaking and Trix says that we may expect to meet her as a noted suffragette in a short lime after her graduation. Richardsville is her home town. Sleeping her recreation. Her favorite colors are green and brown, And boys her abomination. 33 Evelyn Collner Clarion, Pa. PI Winner of Literary Contest. Original ■ made he She B. L.

RGARET Crawford. Peggy, Strattonville, Pa. B. L. S.; ' Y Choir; Glee Club; Middle Year Class Play. This Scotch Lassie was born at Crawford town, Jefferson County, in the 90 ' s, but Clarion County now claims her as one of its amiable inhabitants. After graduating from a Grammar School, she decided lo advance her education to a higher standard and came to C. S. N. S. to join the JIass of ' 13. Peggy IS of a modest and kind disposition and well loved by all her class-mates. She is fond of study, especially Physics, but her fu- ture, for a short time at least, shall be devoted lo the practical teach- ing of the subjects completed here, and later in the line of Domestic Science or House-keeping. Her modest looks a cottage might adorn. Sweet as a primrose peeps beneath the thorn. 34 Anceline Crowley, Ang. Eldred. Pa. One morning in tne beautiful month of June, the birds were sing- ing merrily and everything was cheerful around the Crowley home, when suddenly a faint cry was heard. Upon investigation it was found to be our Ang. Ang was sent to school when very young. She attended the Port Allegany H. S., and from there came to C. S. N. S. in Jan., 1910. She is a brilliant student, her capacity for learning is marvelous. Ang is w.lty and wise and delights in cracking jokes, and geting other people ' s goats. Her chief pastime is talking Deutsch and committing such phrases as -Sie ist ein Teufel. For some time during her slay in C. S. N. S. her attractions were letters but now we notice that a window seat in the parlor seems to be her hobby. Nothing frightens Ang even to seeing a ' Ghost every night, which never fails to appear. Even in her sleep Ang slill insists she sees the Ghost. Success will surely crown her efforts and our heartiest wishes for a howling success go with Ang.

S. N. S. She is industrious in the class room as well s during study hour except when she sees a mouse. Her spare moments are spent in making candy particularly sea-foam and fudge. She divides this with her class-mates as classes are changing. She always says; ■ How 1 like Phvsics, 1 know when Dad is going to call on me, he looks at me, and smiles, then 1 know it ' s my turn.

Since she is a privileged character, she roams around the halls dur- ing study hour, and one thing which she boasts of is, that she never asks permission. Her chief desire now Is to become a professional school teacher unless (he bug-house reclaims her and we predict great success for her along that line. Delbert Decker. Debbi Whig Hill, Pa. In the midst of Forest County in the latter part of the nineteenth century there appeared a little boy named Delbert Decker. He grew up in the forest, and became a rugged and healthy young man. After attending High School, and graduating, he entered C. S. N. S., where he soon became very popular, especially among the girls. After he was in school awhile, Delbert resolutely determined to enter the prize-fighting circle. He met with success but, at last being knocked out by Fitzsimmons. he resolved never lo lake up that line of work again. He possesses some talent both as an artist and poet, and he may make one of these his life ' s work. Clara De Smet, Marienville, Pa. Born with the roses in the month of June was our brown eyed Clara in Marienville. She is one of the three who represent the class of 1910 of M. H. S. at C. S. N. She is a member of the F. L. S.. Glee Club and Y. W. C. A. Her favorite song at Glee Club practice is Speaky. Spiky, Spoky, or Dippy. Deippy. Doppy. She has always been a loyal member of her class and by her cheerful disposition scatters sun- shine wherever she goes. It is needless to say that her influence for good will leave a lasting impression upon her classmates. We have no fears for her future life and success. Parma Dixon New Bethlehem. Pa. F. L. S.; Y. W. C. A. One cold winter ' s day our httle Parma arrived at the Dixon home near Curllsville, Pa. .After graduating from Porter Township High School, she came to Clarion in the Spring of 1911, to satisfy her thirst for wis- dom. Parma is very fond of Latin, and always responds promptly when Jacky calls on Shield. .Although she and Geolz are continually fighting to see who shall wear Jeff ' s diamond, her fa orite expression is Hooray. Who? Ray. ' The greatest trial of her life is that she is so small despite the assurance of her friends that the best goods are always done up in small packages. She is greatly loved by children and we can predict success for her in teaching, which profession she intends to follow — for awhile at least. Ruth E. Douchertv, Our Baby Fisher, Pa. A Maiden never bold Of spirit so still and so quiet. All must be hushed and still if you wish to hear what Ruth has to say in the class-room and of course everything she says is worth hearing. Her one ambition is to be a kindergarten teacher, although we have heard her say. Oh! I expect to study Art and Music — Whatever she does she has the very best wishes of the class of 1913 for her future success. Her motto: — 1 will always be true to the White and the Blue.

She has occupied the last position for three years with slight inter- missions No matter what happens, everything always turns out all right. Say, Stay close to me, Florence, and see what she says to you. We can only say that he stuck close. Florence, for the last live terms, has washed dishes at the ' Y re- ceptions, but the sixth term she absolutely refused to wash any more dish- es. Do you suppose that Fat ' s absence was the reason? Speaking seriously Fluss is a good all round girl. She is conscien- tious and trustworthy and everyone has a good word for her. 37 M. Francis Ecan, Bulligan. Emporium, Pa.

She came in the Spring of 1911 and look Middle-Junior. Then she taught one year but came back in the Autumn of 1912 to cast her lot with the class of 1913. Mary ' s specialty is making cases for her friends. Her quiet dignity makes friends for her wherever she goes. X ' e have no doubt of her success as a teacher, and we are sure she will have at least one pupil. Mary Iona Fish, Lawsonham, Pa. It was on a sunny May day in 18- ? that a little light eyed, good natured maiden came to brighten the home of Fish ' s near Lawsonham. In her early years, she spent her lime in going to the District School. Later she attended Pleasant Hill High School for one year and then decided to try teaching. She taught two successive years in the Rural Schools near her home. She then thought it wise lo attend Normal and entered the class of 1913 in the Spring of 1911 and has been very suc- cessful in her work. She says thai she likes teaching so well that she expects lo make it her life work, but we think her prospects loo bright in another direction.

Jid has a great deal of musical lalenl both in instrumental and vocal music, and it shows to good advantage when a bunch is gathered together and needs some excitement. Everyone agrees that we couldn ' t get along without Jid. 40 June Fitzgerald. Clarion. Pa. F. L. S.; Middle Year Play; Glee Club. Which one? — Why. don ' t you know, the one that is always with ' Stove. June says. I wouldn ' t wear one of those fake sparklers be- cause just think what people would say. She must be thinking pretty seriously. June spends most of her time during vacation going to the Post Office. Can anyone tell the reason? We never knew, ourselves. When you hear June say. You don ' t mean it. girls? you know she has been shocked, and that happens pretty frequently, it seems. June never takes any interest in Society. Receptions, etc.. any more. Jid says that she has gotten to the stage where she would rather sit at home. Nevertheless she is a mighty line girl and all of us have a warm spot in our hearts for June — especially Stove. Laura Emily Fitzsimmons, Baxter, Pa. One bright day in June. Laura Emily Fitzsimmons came to live in a liome near Baxter. She was sent to the Coder school to receive her pre- paratory education. After completing the work of this school, she came to Clarion lo prepare for teaching She has never been known to break a rule except to go skipping once or twice and to do Pyrography work after ten o ' clock. She has time for everything and believes in getting each day s lessons so she will not have to cram for examinations. Latin IS the only thing in school she does not like, but her chief studies are Manual Training and Spoonology. RoMAiNE Frampton. Romy Clarion. Pa.

Romy is thinking seriously of joining the Gamma Delta fraternity — being led gently onward by the light from a particular head of red hair. Romy is always in it knee deep at parlies where we need the ice broken. When she lands on the piano with such skillfully aimed blows, she never fails to break the ice for use. Ever since Romy ' s ' Epsilon Psi Jew friend was here, she has had a fondness for mustaches. With all this. Romy is a mighty nice, all around girl (usually around.) She hits it right when she says.

During the shortest month of the year 1894, a ten pound boy came lo the Frill home in Clarion Co. After he had grown to be one of the largest bovs in the Public Schools of Lickingville. he wandered lo C. S. N. S. during the Spring term of 1911. Willis is known by all the students as a very quiet, industrious boy. He always roomed alone, and the girls were always delighted when he would visit the Dining Hall. His principal features are his funny sayings and smiling attitude toward all. He was ne- er known to converse with the girls_ and was never seen in the Reception Hall. However, we know that after Willis begins leaching in the District Schools, his quiet ways will soon vanish. Irene Furma Slratlonville. Pa Irene laid the foundation for her eventful career at Straltonville High School. Then v ' ilh the good judgment so characteristic of her. she de- cided to entrust the development of her pedagogical talent at C. S. N. S. It is very evident that ' Deutsch is her favorite subject and she. herself admits that her favorite pastime is entertaining. Since early childhood. Irene has manifested great executive ability, and hopes to display the same in a schoolroom on the Pacific coast. The principal tho ' t upon her mind is. ' Which one shall I take with me I wend my quiet way alone. And not a pleasure can I see In any stolen strolls or talks Of those much xaunled Sunday walks. The companion life for me. Adelaide G.

S., and she wisely decided lo travel in the direction indicated When her journey was completed she found herself a member of the ' 13 ' s. She is a prominent member of the Mandolin Club and a Cham- pion Basket Ball Player. Her favorite pastime is strolling accompanied by her ' Fidus .Achates. She is a faithful student and therefore has lime to do a little extra work, such as helping the hall teacher earn her money. When she completes her course, she expects to become a sedate teacher, at least for awhile. Martha Clario lench. GOBLE, I, Pa. B. L. S.; Old Maid ' s Martha is one of Clarion ' s representatives.

Acnes Croner, Lickingville, Pa. Some years ago there arrived upon the scene at Lickingville a very small girl, who decided to remain at the Groner home. Her parents con- tended with her for a few years, and then sent her to the Washington Grammar School where she made great progress. In the Spring of 1911 she arrived at Clarion Normal. Although she joined no class that term, she returned in the Fall to join the ' I3 ' s. of whom she has been a faithful member, always going to classes and always studying except when she feels like ' laughing.

She is commonly known here by her favorite expression Hello Kids, what are you doing? Since she has pleaded so earnestly with us not to mention John ' s name, we will comply with her wishes, and instead say, Johnston. Margaret Virginia Guild. Tilusville, Pa. Miss Margaret Virginia Guild was born and reared near Tilusvill( Pa. She took the first two years of her Normal Course at Edinbor but on account of the severe cold emigrated southward as far as Clarioi where she is specializing in (Physics). Margaret is a real sweet gir studious and lovable. She is a militant suffragist and belongs to the ani bluff association. She is a very competent architect, having already planned many wonderful castles (air). She contemplates, for the next two years, inslrucliong the ' oung ideas how to shoot. Then as she will have her diploma, she is going to become so proficient in (Physics) thai in 1920, she will without doubt, be fully prepared as an instructor in Physics, to be enrolled as a member of the faculty of C. S. N. S., Wellesley, Vassar or Bryn Mawr. Surely fate has affirmed her as teacher. N. B. We are all sure she will teach some one, Helena Guthrie, Beany, Reynoidsburg, Pa. Helena, but belter known as Beany, landed in Summerville one stormy morning in March but soon took her departure to Reynoldsville. She received her early education in that place, bul wishing a broader view of the world, came to Clarion and joined the ' I3 ' s. She IS a well known athlete; Girls ' Basket Ball Captain; famous Basket Ball guard; Leader of Gym Class, and in short ' Jack-of-all- Irades. She is fond of books, mainly for the reason that she loves to ponder over her Page(s) al her own sweet will. For tricks, beat ' Beany, and you ' ll hurry. Her favorite expression is By Toolner. Her desire now is to get fat; but happen her what may. she will certainly be sure of a good Undertaking. Edith Haffly, Kitlanning, Pa. Edith first opened her bright eyes in Huntingdon, Pa.

Mable Claire Hepler. Hep, New Bethlehem. Pa. One October, when the chestnuts were good enough to eat, Mabel Claire came to New Bethlehem. Here she remamed until she obtained valuable knowledge from the N. B. High School. Later she went to Irv- ing where she might have won fame as a music pupil, but Clarion ap- pealed to her more because of the surroundings— people such as Maheys and jeans, and the chances of losing her life from poisoning, etc. Geol- ogy is her favorite study because it deals with Marshes. Mable is of an uncertain disposition never knowing what she wants until she does it. but bet on Hep to make up her mind in a hurry when she gets a bid to a feed. We wonder why everything makes her tired, and why she always says ' Well, that ' s a woman ' s privilege. but we wish for her the greatest succces in her life work whether it be home-making or teach- H. Lorraine Hetrick, Big Run, Pa. •Third Floor Disturber from No. 98. Clarion Normal was much enriched by the arrival of Lorraine on the sixth of May, Nineteen Twelve. She completed Middle-Junior in hve weeks, after finishing her H. S. course at Big Run. We scarcely learned to know her in the five weeks, but felt sure she was a brilliant new star in our constellation, and have since had her brilliancy confirm our belief. She graced the sec ' y chair of the Bancroft Literary Society dur- ing the winter term. Her voice is heard caroling in the Glee Club. Her w eakest point is a desire for variety. She firmly believes that ' ariety is the spice of life. She follows the maxim Larly to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy. and wise. but her borrowed alarm clock has to help her out in this. Her motto is Never do to-day what you can put off ' till to-morrow. She is witty and lovable and we can predict for her the brightest and most successful future. 47 Nettie Hoover, Atwood. Pa.

Being a boy of high ideals, he decided lo further his education at C. S. N. S. So in the Spring of 1911 Bill planted his pedal extremities on the Campus. Bill soon made a Hit among the boys on account of his gentle disposition; and the girls soon fell into Bill ' s winning ways. He set his cap for a blonde Belle (Lulu), and now he smiles every lime he goes to Navarre Hall. His Spring term mollo: Base Ball games at home are the best days for Bolany specimens. ' Bill ' s favorite expression: 1 am Joe Wood (would) Pitch, or Johnny Spil ' em over. Mabel Janet Jefferson. Williamsporl, Pa. Jeff first began lo talk fourteen years ago in Portland Mills, and Lo! she is talking yet. She received her early education at Lolela where she displayed great ability as a student. When ihirleen years old, she boarded the train for Clarion where she entered the Normal as a wee lonely Junior. Jeff is especially popular in Navarre when there are difficult essays to write or debate briefs lo be organized and this popularity some- times extends to Stevens. Jeff cheers many a homesick girl with her jolly talks, and her advice to them is walk at least one mile a day for health and good humor, but avoid school houses where there are gentle- men teachers. She is an ardent admirer of the mirror, which no doubt accounts for her frequent tardiness in the dining-room. The Faculty chides and the Young men stare, but Jeff talks on forever. 48 Charles G. Johnson, Jack Anita. Pa. Not more than a half century ago this genius came to the city of Anita, . fler attencJing the Public Schools of Anita and one year of High School, he decided to come to C. S. N. S. and join the class of 13. ' Jack or the Big Swede as he is commonly known, is a great friend to the ladies. Jack was a member of the strong Baseball Team of 1912. He being the catcher and one of the best hitters on the team. What Jack intends to do. we can not say. But we are sure it will relate to the ' News Paper Business.

Arabel Keck, Knox, Pa, Es war einmal an infant angel trailing rosy clouds about her, who decided on a time to descend into this vale of tears. Thus it came about thai one Fall day — Sept. 21, to be exaci, our wee cherub slid down on a sunbeam landing safely at the Kesk home in Knox. Our angel child had lost her wings, acquired a dismal howl, and otherwise extinguished herself. ,As this chilcj grew she was christened Arabel (Arrie). Three years ago she was seni to C. S. N. S. so that the brilliancy of her menial fireworks could better be seen from the heights of Normal hill. Arrie is the soul of punctuality (?). She is loved by all and we will watch her progress with inlcresi, for she will eventually land in her proper place among those innumerable few. who live again in minds, made belter by her presence. Marie Kerns, Ke Corsica. Pa. K Kerns, or Kernsie, (who says ihat ? ) first li ed in New Wil- mington, Pa. After a while she weni lo Ohio, li ing first in Kinsman and then in ' oungstown. Later she came to Corsica. Pa., her present location. We do hope she will never go back lo ' oungstown for any other purpose except to visit old friends. We are beginning to fear, but hope Rev. Kerns will not be so stern as to cause anything like that. But we all know Mane is determined and means lo carry out all plans, come what may, and live in happinca all her life. We haven ' t said any- thing about Marie ' s school life, you know the most important had to be told first. She graduated from Corsica High School in 1911. Then she came lo Clarion Normal where she took Junior and Middle in one year; and now, while she is thankful for the work she has accomplished, she does hate lo leave Clarion — the place in which she has found so much Happiness. 50 Hugh Malcolm Kilcour, M. D. (?) Clarion. Pa. fo woman ' s rights. Whether Mac thinks every woman should or every woman should have a voter, is a matter for but he can not resist have a vole discussion. His only failing is for the faire the temptation. Mac IS the kind of a fellow you sometimes read about, but seldom meet. He has brains, and his heart is in the right place. He has quite a love for Science. When but a mere child he held a puppy on a hot stove to study the effect of the shock. He has performed countless other ex penments on living animals, all resulting of course in useful discoveries. The scientific world still rings, for he tried removing the stomach of hospi- tal patients and substituting for them the various organs of cats and mon- keys. Out of twenty-two patients, on whom he tried it, only twenty-two died before he had finished the operation. Alice Kirbv, Stratlonville. Pa One bright November day there arrived a beautiful and valuable birth- day present at the Kirby home, in the city of Uniontown, Fayette Co. This present, which has been so highly prized and which has been strew- ing joy and sunshine everywhere since its arrival, is no other than our dignified and ambitious Alice. Prior to attending C S. N. S., Alice spent most of her time in Union- town and StrattonviUe. She is always ready to lend a helping hand, and her motto is; — ' Never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. Her favorite pastime is studying literature and art, as well as trying to enjoy herself while waiting until the quarantine disappears from B ' s door. Ire.ne LUCILE KiSER, ■ Kike, Venus, Penna. K ke nrade her smiling debut in Knox. Pennsylvania. 189 — , and a short lime later weni lo live in Venus. After having attended her home town school, and finishing there, she decided to come lo C. S. N. S. Accordingly in the Fall of 1910 she registered at Clarion Normal as a Junior. From the beginning Kike has had the proper spirit of loyally toward the class of 1913. This was especially manifested in the Spring Term of 1911. How often we of Navarre have heard her melodiou! voice singing O. ' ' ou Blondie. Kike is one of the liveliesl, jolliest of our girls. Her mollo is; — Whv should I worry — the worst of o«r troubles are ones that we never have. Kike is a member of the B. L. S. and the Glee Club 51 Stella Korb. Venus, Pa. One bright June day in 1894 Stella Mae Korb alighted on this earth near Venus, Pa. Her dutiful parents sent her to the Beck School near her home until she became too much for her teachers. She was then accordingly sent to C. S. N. S. to further her education, and unite with the class of ' 13. She is very fond of Ancient History and has taken it several times. Stella never breaks rules, except to go skipping occas- ionally and to solve a riddle during study period. Susan D. Kribbs, Knox, Pa. F. L. S.; Pian.sl V Choir; Pres. Glee Club; Middle Year Class Play; Senior Double Quartette; Sequelle Staff. Bashful Sue ( ) alighted on our plane! in the city of Knox, Pa., and there she decided to stay. After graduating from the Grammar School, she centered her mind on the study of music. Then she decided to come to Clarion and join the 13 ' s, where she made use of her gift from Musaeus. Her loving and gentle disposition has won for her the esteem of all her classmates. Since it has been said that lo be a successful teacher, one must have the gift of speech, we have no doubt but that she will make a very successful one. She says that teaching is her chosen profession but we belie e she will soon be absorbed in Domestic Science. Kribbs IS her name, single is her station. Happy will he be. who makes the alteration. Elizabeth RlithKuntz, ReJ, Rufu Big Run, Pa. Ruth commonly known as Red, or ' Rufus, came lo C. S. N. S. in the Spring of 1912 to increase her large store of knowledge. She fin- ished the H. S. course in the class of ' 11 of B. R. H. S., and here the same sweet disposition was shown as displayed in her life in Navarre. Red has a weakness for having her lights an after len oMo-k. aid as a result a gentle rap is soon heard. Ruth is a member of the B. L. S. and an important part of the Y choir. Her dream for the future is to make her home in Canada and the castles she builds are sehr, sehr viele. ja, Ja. Ruth ' s motto is: — Keep cool and it can be said she has never been seen otherwise. Gluck Auf is our wish for her in her future life. Mary Viola Lauffer, Shippenville. Pa. Old Maid ' s Bench. A certain bright day, in the month of roses, was made still brighter. by the appearance of this sunny disposilioned little Fraulein. Since ihal day her whole ambition has been to make the world brighter. She has many amiable characteristics. one of which is fidelity. She has always been faithful to the school, as well as to her native country, in which she has already rendered one year of ef- ficient service in return for that which she had previously received. Since joinmg our class in the Sprmg of 1911, she has been our old stand-by. especially in Pjiysics. Mary has discovered that some exceedingly large zoological specimens can be obtained on a moonlight trip, which gives variety to school life. Her chief pleasure is traveling, from which many mtcresting events can be recalled, such as riding three on a single seat. On the whole Mary is very sensible and we are sure will make good. Chas. Laughlin, New Bethlehem. Pa. Lthe In the early nineties, Leatherwood received the intelligence of crease in population. Charles was the cause. After being instructed in all the arts and sciences afforded by the Rockville School, he entered C. S. N. S. Taking preparatory work in the Spring of ' 09. he has wit- nessed the opening of each succeeding term. In spile of many winning smiles from the fair sex, Charles is determined lo be a bachelor. He is undecided as to whether his sphere of usefulness lies in Cuba, the Philip- pines, or one of our great western slates. We hope wherever his incli- nations lead him, his future life will be one of happiness and success. Hal first opened h early in life, m ma ' ams for a ni m 1910. After one term of sch to C. S. N.

He served for Iwo terms as Vice Pres dent of F. S. S. and one term as treasurer. He belongs to Orchestra, Mandolin Club, Sequelle Staff and leader of C. S. N. S. acrobats. Sam, since taking up his abode in the bell tower, has taken great interest in the morse code. As a result, he is able to manipulate the gas light very successfully. He is going to North Warren to see about a position (?) there. Somehow or other we think that he would find his work there very pleasant. One fault that he has however, it that of proposing to girls uncon- sciously and then being dismissed when they lake him seriously. MlLLlCENT LoTT, Millie, Big Run, Pa. This brown eyed girl entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Lolt of Big Run in 1892. She received her early education in the Cross Roads School and being desirous of more knowledge came to C. S. N. S. to further her education. Millie is a kind-hearted, happy-go-lucky girl. Along with her good qualities she has the habit of spending a large part of her study periods in the room across the hall. She is often heard to remark, O Gash, but some of these cases make me tired. Of course we can excuse Millie for this as she claims she has had no experi- ence in such affairs. Here we will leave her, hoping that her career in the future will be as successful as her stay here has been. Margaret Regina Matthews, ' Ge Carrick. Pa. Str. she do B. L.

Her diligence and earnestness has made her a worthy member of our class. Ethel is very fond of studying. She has spent many — many — many hours in study since she came here.

Brookville, Pa. One cold day In January, a home near Brookville was briglilened by the arrival of a blue eyed baby. This llllle lot was named Irene, and became the joy of the home. She entered school at Brookville and graduated from High School at that place. She then spent two years in the West, but decided that Pennsylvania was the best place. Irene has taught several terms of school In Jefferson. When she entered Clarion Normal, she was so much In love with the place that she joined the class of 1913.

You often hear her say, while walking thru the sunny paths of Caesar. O, this will be the death of me! She is a lover of nature and stands and gazes at the distant hills for hours. She likes to be out in the rain and often goes out during the largest snow-storm, and has been heard to say, 1 wish it would thunder and lightning. I have often wondered why she did not join the debating society, for debating is her chief pleasure. We all hope this sweel girl lives a long life and prospers, whether her calling be, Latin instructor, nature poet or debater. Harriet M. Northrop, ' Harry. Sugar Grove, Pa. In the early part of the nineteenth century, this fair damsel al:( in a place named Lander, wherever that is. After leaching, decided to joint the brilliant class of 1913. Harry has dislingu herself here in manv ways, especially as a Historian. She is acquainted with the development of ihe stage coach in U. S. One she can ' t clearly comprehend is how A. Lincoln had the heart to Stephen. She is an active member of the Mandolin Club an always ready lo go to practice. One thing which we don ' l fully ui stand, is why such a fair damsel is an ardent advocate of ' Wc Suffrage. She is meditating over church affairs, but we think she seek protection among the Russelliles. Wesley Ocden, Clarion, Pa. 5 ' ited she ished well thing stone id is ider- Short slop.

Owing lo his cheerful disposition he has won the favor of many of the teachers, one especially. Percy believes that one class in astronomy, daily, will not be enough, so in order lo widen his mental capacity on the subject, he will en- deavor to have an extra class in the evening, dum polis sidera pascil.

Anthony received his early education in the schools of that county, and in the winler term of 191 I wandered lo C. S, N. S. Shortly after arriving here, he suffered a severe attack of mumps. During his Middle Year, he gained quite a reputation as a speaker. Now he is known as the • ' Modern Patrick Henry of the Class of 1913. Anthony is a very studious boy. and has never been caught hanging around the Reception Hall. Occasionally, however, he may be seen taking a walk out toward the glass plant. It is needless lo say he will succeed in life, for we all know he will win great fame for his thrilling speeches in favor of Woman Suffrage. Anna Beatrice Os.senbeck. Grandma. Bradford, Pa. Anna hails from Bradford. Ever since her arrival for the Spring term of 1911, she has brightened all around her by her happy smile and witty sayings. She came here from Lock Haven Normal, where she had spent two terms, after her graduation from Bradford High School. One of her strongest characteristics is her love for Physics work (?). and her chief aim in life is to become a Professoress of German, and for preparalion for this she means to go lo ihe land of Ijer fathers. She is so kind and careful for those around her that she is called Grand- ma, by many of the girls. Scott Port, Clarion. Pa. What ' s in a name?

Herman F. Reed firs! appeared upon (he globe in the industrious town of Troutville. Clearfield Co.. in the middle Ws. Here he received his early education and became well known in the neighborhood of his home. He soon grew tired of common school and caused his teachers so much trouble that his parents decided to send him to Clarion Normal where he might increase his knowledge and become a teacher. He entered the Normal in the Winter term of 191 I. and joined the class of 1913. During this time, he has won many friends in school life, and is very industrious in his studies. We do not know what he expects to make of himself in the future. but we feel confident that he will make good at whatever he tries to do. Mabel Reed. Roulette. Pa. Mabel was born in Roulette, a delightful lillle cily among the hills. She attended the DislricI School for some time and then went to High School for two years, and then taught for two terms. Wishing to see the world and visit a metropolis, she came to Clarion for two Spring terms. In the Fall of 1912. she came back to finish her training.

TwiLA Leretta Robinson, Brockwayville, Pa. It was in the bleak November, the nighl was cold and dreary, the wind howled dismally, and the rain fell in torrents. Amidst this war of elements, a young cyclone struck the Robinson home at Brockwayville. within doors. It was none other than Our Twila. This plump little cherub grew up and exhausted the educational resources of her native town, but was not satisfied, so decided to broaden her horizon, by a course in the Clarion Normal.

For this reason she en!ered the class of MS. She should have graduated with honors, but, being of such a generous disposition, (as we all know) she decided to confer the honors on some uf her class-males. Here ' s hoping that she gets all that ' s coming to her hereafter. Ruth Russell, Bob, Clarion, Pa. Glee Club; F. L. S.; Class Play ' IZ- ' B. It was on a hot Julv day that a little smiling good nalured maiden came to the home of Russells in Clarion, Pa., and on account of her pleasant environment she has always kept her sweet smiling disposition. Ruth, better known as Bob, graduated from Clarion High School and the same year joined the class of 1913. After completing her course here, she expects to teach for a while, at least.

She received her early education in the Tyler and Reynoldsville Schools, but desiring lo continue her education, wisely decided to join the class of 1913 of C. S. N. S. You would think by the angelic look on Agnes ' face that she would never participate in any mischief whatever, but don ' t let this look de- ceive you. Agnes ' common expression is, Oh, gee, but I ' m hungry. Her favorite flowers are Johnny-jump-ups. For recreation, she is very fond of riding horseback, especially on other people ' s horses.

In the early 90 ' s, our little Claire dropped from the skies to a small town, namely, Scotch Hill, receiving her early education in this place. She then moved to Kane, where she extended her channel of learning. Claire entered C. S. N. S. in the Fall of 1911, and proved an indus- trious and determined student. One never hears this girl complain. She faces her trials bravely always coming out ahead in the end. Before closing it seems necessary that something should be said con- cerning her matrimonial affairs. At the present time she is wearing a diamond. Robert G. Simpson, Bob, Corsica, Pa. Who ' s that swinging up ihe walk? One can surely mislake nrilher ihal walk nor smile, for that is our studious, sunnv hearted Bachelor? Bob. That energetic walk has fascinations of its own to say nothing about The Old Stone House by moonlight. What ' s that Loraine? Never mind. Bob, we know you to be true blue and always ready lo give a lift or cheer some one in the dumps. We ' ll not soon forget you Old Comr ade, and here is the hand of 1913 10 wish for you many years in which to be a walking sunshine peddler. For he is a jolly, good fellow, which no one can deny. Ula Simpson, Scotch Hill, Pa. Ula made her first disturbance in Scotch Hill in the month of Storms, with a smile on her face. Her early education in the Scotch Hill Academy; later she spent a year in the school at Leeper. Still wishing to gam higher education, she came lo C. S. N. S. in 1910. Since her arrival here, she has been very quiet, especially in the Dining Room. She always does the right thing, going to her room every night at 6:30, and studies until 7:00, Her one ambition is to be teacher of mathe- matics, and whatever she does, she has the very best wishes of the class of 1913 for her future success. Flo.n De Slotterbeck, Du Bols, Pa. Flon entered upon her eventful career in the enterprising village of East Brady, Pa. After attending the East Brady High School, Flon moNed to Du Bois, Here she again entered school but only for a short lime for Flon, one day in the Fall of 1912, surprised the Clarion students by joining the jolly ' H ' s. We think Flon was not fitted to become a minister ' s wife, although at one time, all indications pointed that way. Now she has taken up the study of Art, which lo her is more inter- esting than any subject taught at Clarion. We wonder why she is so afraid in the dark (?), but Flon never hesi- tates lo play a Irick on any one. Beat her if you can. After completing her course here, she expects lo teach a while, at least. May she have success wherever she goes. Della Evelyn Smith, Straltonville. Pa. One of the members of the class of ' 13 is Della Evelyn Smilh. It was in the early 90 ' s the smiling face of Delia first appeared. She graduated from Common School, (hen came to the Normal for two terms. She decided to enlarge her knowledge by going to Strattonville High School. She graduated from there m 1911, taking first honors. Then she came back to the Normal and is now a member of the class of 1913. Her plans for the future are quite unsettled, but we feel sure she will be suc- cessful in whatever profession she chooses. Hazel M. Smith. New Castle, Pa. Hazel May Smith has lived in New Castle all her life. She attended ihe Public Schools there, graduating from the High School with ihe class of 1910. After a year of Supernumerary work, she taught very suc- cessfully, in the city schools, for one year. Then, because she wished lo advance her leaching ability, last Spring she went to Slippery Rock Normal, where she passed Junior-Middle work. It was, therefore, as a Senior that she first entered C. S. N. S. — a shy, modest, bright-eyed little maid, loved by all who know her. Hazel is not only bright of eyes, but bright of intellect. It is not unusual to see lOO ' .r or nearly that written at the lop of her examination papers. Nor is she satisfied unless this is so. In manner she is unassuming and sincere, and for her we predict a very happy and successful future. W. Ray Smith, Punxsutawney, Pa. Class Pres.; Vice Pres. Middle Year Class; Pres. F. L.

By his earnest work, amiable dis- position and fascinating smile, he has won the favor of his teachers and classmates. As president of the class, he deserves much credit for his leadership during the year 1912 and 13, ever setting a good example and holding before his followers the mollo, Labor omnia vincit.

Bob is very fond of athletics, but in keeping up an athletic record he does not neglect the other side. He decided just a short time ago to gel a little Pie (Moore) in the Domestic Science dep ' t, and as far as we know he succeeded very well. Bob, nevertheless, is a good student and a gentleman in e ery respect. He expects to follow Law and it is our wish that success may attend him in everything that he undertakes.

Her chief desire is to run an automobile, and be a School marm. She is one of the shining lights of third floor, but her brilliancy is explained by the fact that she was born in Sharpsburg, one boiling hot day in July. Her favorite expression is, Oh, Pickles. Who it is we do not know, but may it lead her along the road of success which we know Olive A ' lll follow in her course through life. Myrtle Elizabeth Varner, Clarion, Pa. th Myrlle Varner was born in Clarion in ihe lalter pari of the r century. She started her career in the Kindergarten, then entered the Model School and was graduated several years ago. Myrlle is the only lepresentative in this large class of the Vs. and besides going lo school and getting her lessons, she spends several hours each day in Candy Land. She likes all kinds of candy, but her fa orite kind is kisses. Myrtle says she intends lo teach school in the future, but we think she will become die Frau des Holzherr. Helen Elizabeth Walters, Clarion, Pa. Helen, the May Queen of the class of 1913, takes no interest in Clarion cases, but remains true to her Jack. wilh whom she hopes to establish an ideal country home. After teaching for one week in the Model School, she is enthusiastic over the vocation of leaching. Her German constructions have saved the class when failure seemed certain, and all of her friends join in the hope that her aspirations of becoming a modern Raphael may be realized.

Anna attended the Parochial School and then, deciding to become a school teacher, ioined the class of ' 13, She has always been a loyal member of her class and has always set a worthy example to all who knew her. She never left her room at night during study hours (?). Anna is often heard singing, ' Every ship will find a harbor, altho she firmly believes in single blessedness. Lora Goodrowe Welch, Clarion, Pa. ' We w 11 draw ihe curtain, and show vou the picture. The fart I ' lal the vicinage of Hannibal, ' N. Y., is renowned as a peach growing community must account for the origin of Mrs. Lora in that locality. Such was apparently the opinion of a certain young school master, who transported this choice specimen to Clarion some fourteen years ago. Six years training in the Art Course of the Rochester Athenaeum and Mechanics Institute, served as a preliminary to extended work in Liter- ature and Ihe Sciences in C. S. N. S. It is her peculiar claim to have attained eminent distinction as a student, teacher, artist, housekeeper, hostess and mother of many motherless ones. Moreover, on the very best possible authority, she is said lo be the only person who has ever succeeded in keeping Dad beneath her thumb. She is mine own. .And I as rich in having such a jewel .As twenty seas, if all their sand were pearl The water nectar, and the rocks pure gold. 71 Stanley C. Welflinc. Dutch. Germania, Pa.

After a time, she became dissatisfied with her surroundings a to Limestone township, where she attended the Pine Grove Scho being convinced of the truth of the saying. A little learning is a danger- ous thing, she decided to come to Clarion Normal to further her education, and to see if happily she might meet here the best man in the world. She admires now one. now another but none long enough to de- cide that he is the ' best man. Mabelle Claire has a habit of saying My honey kiss me and say you ' ll miss me. when I am gone. She probably means when she goes out in the wide, wide world. We shall miss her smiling face, but we wish her happiness and success in her chosen work of teaching, whether she has one pupil or many. Edna Wiley, Brookville, Pa. Brown eyed Edna began life ' s journey near Brookville and ha-, ing successfully completed the first six vears of her life, she entered school at Pleasant Hill. Becoming weary of the monotony of a Rural School, she entered, first. Grammar School and then. High School in Brookville. Tiring even of that in a couple of years, she went back to the Rural School as a teacher. However, at one time during her varied career. Ed- na had spent a few months at Clarion Normal. Finding it to be the only place where she could fall asleep any time in the evening, she joinedjhe class of 1913 to stay. Her fad here is studying German, nor does she rely wholly on books, but spends much of her lime with Dutch (Welfling). Edna is not a favorite of one only, but loved by all who know her. Florence Williams, Cooperslown, Pa. Florence entered upon her career in an enterprising little town in Ohio. She flew with the birds to Cooperslown, Venango Co., Pa., where she spent her early years, attending Public School and later entered Coopers- lown High School, from which she graduated in 1911. Still higher aims were hers, so she decided to come to C. S. N. S., and is now a member of the illustrious class of 1913. Her favorite pas- lime is reading fairy stories. She is especially delighted with Jack and The Bean Stalk. She is fond of oul-door sports, for Instance, horse back riding. Of the many sleeds at her command Jackie Aeneas is ihe most trusty.

He is a member of the Steven ' s Hall bucket brigade and several other organiza- lions, characteristic of that place (Mirabile diclu).

Football; Class Basket Ball; Bus. Mgr. Senior Class Play; Lit. Con- testant ' 12; B. L. S. Don first put in his appearance at C. S. N. S. in the Winter term of 1912. He was here only a short time when he showed a wonderful tendency to go with engaged women. This is truthfully corroborated by Bulligan. In the Spring term of 12 Don changed his tactics and started to raise Kane. Lee holds the record for being the high jumper of the school, his mark being from second floor windows in Steven ' s Hall to the hard ground beneath. But as Don is still young he will most likely outgrow these bad habits. His many friends predict for him a successful career, in anything that he should make his life ' s work. Martha Lois Pickens, Picky, Clarion, Pa. F. L. S.; Glee Club; Senior Basket Bali. The class of 1913 knew a graduate of 1912 would be necessary to help them through, and so they got Picky and every one agrees that they could not have made a belter choice. She may be little, but Oh! that mind. She shines in Latin, she glist- ens in Science, and she is a gleaming headlight in Drawing. Picky is always getting into trouble and since the day she left the Dorm to oblige Miss Givan, she spends her vacant periods in the Library. As she is so little you would think she would prefer large people but Picky says, she would rather be a big (ish in a little pool, than a little fish in a big pool. Picky is one of the best girls in the school and every one has a good word for her. 1913 is certainly grateful to 1912 for her. Bertha Elizabeth Scowden, Bird, Tionesta, Pa.

How- ever, she hails from Tionesia and was gradualed from T. H. S. in 1910. After teaching for a year, she came to Clarion and joined the ' I3 ' s. Bird is very industrious, studies all the time, never goes to bed before eight o ' clock, and always rises before seven. After finishing her course here. Bird expects to teach for a few years and then fly away to India, where she will administer to the sick. Hester Smith, Emlenlon, Pa. Fourth Year. Here is Hester with a smile all over her face. One cold day in March there arrived in the little village of Rockland a wonderful being, and on discovery it was found to be only Hester. Hester is a happy-go-lucky kid; her motto is: Have a good time, and to C. S. N. S. where she entered as a Middle-Junior. But owing to the number of convolutions in her brain, the faculty transferred her into the Fourth ' ear Class where she stands in high rank. Hester is a happy-go-lucky kid, her motto is: Have a good time, and suffer the consequences. Her admirers are many which is plain to be seen. We often see Hester gazing out of her window looking dreamingly at the Court House. Hester says she would like to teach, but sometimes we think she would rather assist in a law office. We all know Hester and are always glad to see her smiling face appear. We wish her world- wiae fame, which we know she will win. George Washington Supplef.. Sup. RldRway, Pa.

His favorite dish is Rise soup, and his favorite expression. I saw the dog eating something. As a member of the orchestra he spends most of his lime tuning up, in a vacant practice room with a certain young lady lo assist him (lune up?).

The spirit of harmony which prevailed, when we were so few. continues, anci we are all taking an actne interest in the class and school work. Noting the absence of Old Glory from the ffag-pole, our boys now see that the loved Stars and Stripes float over us thruout the day. No activity of C. S. N. S. would be complete without the 14 ' s. The right balcony decorations for the Gymnasium Exhibition were much admired, especially the green and white on the summit. The splendid work done by the Juniors with dumb bells and clubs was a source of comment. Notwithstanding our depleted treasury we decided to entertain the school with a Hop on Feb. I, 1913. We feel we voice the sentiment of the entire C. S. N. S. when we say this was the most enjoyable event of the term. Navarre Hall was decorated with our class colors, and 1914 pen- nants were in evidence everywhere. Dainty programmes, carrying out the color scheme, were distributed as souvenirs, — and each member of the class wore daisies. Fruit punch was served during the evening. The green and white was again noticeable in the refreshments, which consisted of ice-cream and fancy cakes. The School Orchestra furnished the music and was most generous in its encores. Teachers and s tudents entered into the spirit of the occasion and all were loath to say Good-night, when the bell summoned us to our rooms — reminding us that — the Junior Hop was but a ine ' ' ory. We came to the close of the year with courage for Slate Board and glorious hopes of soon being Seniors. But before saying Adieu to our friends of the class of 1913, we wish to express our appreciation of their many cour- tesies to us and to wish one and all success. B. E. L,, 14. Class History The hearts of the class of 1915 swelled with pride as we took the Sophomore seats in the Chapel at the opening exercises of the school year. What a contrast we were from the badly scared little boys and girls who were accustomed to being called Freshies. At our first class meeting, which was held October 15th, 1912, we found that our ranks were depleted and our treasury empty. We were not discouraged, however, but entered on our second year determined to make it both pleasant and profitable, and we feel we have succeeded. One has but to glance through the Orchestra, the Choir, and all school enterprises to realize that our class is doing its share to contribute to the en- joyment of the student body. We have held our own in athletics throughout the year, standing second in Basket Ball, and shared honors with the Juniors at the annual Gymnasium Exhibition. The left balcony decorations, in the Chapel, at that time proved that we are ethusiastic workers and proud of the Orange and Black — so much so that we have chosen as our class flower the Ox-eye Daisy. Soon we will be Juniors where we will be in the pride of our student life, and will hope to accomplish even greater things. Taking the classes of ' 13 and ' 14 as examples, we expect to reach a helping hand to those below us, and continue our march forward, hoping to reach the goal in 1915, and then graduate a class of which the Clarion State Normal may be justly proud. A. R. All hail to thee, old nineteen fifteen. The fairest class in all our land. Our cordial love to thee confess An ardent youthful band. Our hearts beat firm and strong for thee. Our voices smg thy praise; In one accord we pledge to thee Devotion of our days. Class Officers Ex-President JOHN A. MoONEY Vice-President RaLPH E.

The Freshman class will win the day. Stand them on their heads, Stand them on their feet, 1916 can ' t be beat! Class History It was a beautiful autumn day when we arnved at C. S. N. S., Sept. 10, 1912. We were met at the train and conducted to the Norma, by .stu- d ents who had been here before and were famiHar with the ground. After dinner we registered and the next day, enrolled in our arious classes. For a while, we were in a state of subdued excitement, but gradu- ally we became quite at home and grew to really like Normal life. The most notable event of the Fall term was the Thanksgiving Duiiier on Nov. 28, which we all thoroughly enjoyed. School closed Dec. 19, after a siege of exams, and we all went home for our well earned vacation which was enjoyed to the fullest extent. On Jan. 3, 1913, we came back for our winters work. The most im- portant event of this term was the Gym exhibition on ih ' ' evening of March 15, in which the Freshmen took a prominent part. On March 18, we left Clarion for our Easter vacation, from which we returned March 27, at least, some of us returned; the rest were delayed by the floods but finally arrived safe. This term we are deep in work and are worrying our brains as to how we can do all the scheduled work in the fourteen weeks allotted to us. So far our class has done little to bring its name before the footlights; but three years hence as Seniors, we — but you will see. CLASS ROLL Gerald Baltzer— I am always glad lo be around.

Hazel Wright — Why can ' t 1 have a beau Willis Yardley Welch To those who have really known the man, to those who groan and have grown under his teaching, any attempts to explain his personality seem inade- quate, comparisons unsatisfactory for he is at all times, above all else, him- self. His personality is distinct and irresistible. His gifts, his accomplish- ments are not conventional; they are entirely personal. Some of these quali- ties being a keen insight into human life, a trained, disciplined and enriched mind, the heart of a father, Dad, the passion of a friend, homely elo- quence coupled with the considered words of a teacher, and a life training and will that have overcome all difficulties and produced the man we know, respect and love. In personal gifts of inheritance, then, in training, in will, in largeness of mind and life, in absolute simplicity, in determination to grow each day and to help others find the secret of growth to live here and now, in these qualities and others that follow naturally is to be found the key that un- locks the door which guards his success and influence. The main facts of his life are like the man, small but important, and interesting. Dad was born in Searsburg, Schuyler County, New York. He studied in the common schools of New York until, in his sixteenth year, he began teaching. Two years later he entered Starkey Seminary, New ' ork, going from there to Union Christian College, Merom, Indiana, where he was interrupted in his Senior year by sickness. On recovering he taught in Indiana, Illinois and New York for several years. After taking a three years ' course in free hand, mechanical, pattern and architectual drawing in the Rochester, N. Y., Athenaeum and Mechanics Institute, he entered Os- wego Normal School, and in his Senior year his popularity was manifested by his unanimous election to the presidency of his class. He was graduated with highest honors in the classical course in February, 1899. Immediately after graduating, he became Assistant Instructor in Science and Nature Study at Oswego Normal, retiring from that position in September, 1899, to ac- cept the position as head of the Science Department in the Clarion State Normal School Clarion, Pennsylvania. Prof. Welch has specialized in Psychology, Pedagogy, Science and Nature Study and Literature at Cornell, and the past summer in Quantitative and Analytical Chemistry, at University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wis. At the Clarion State Normal School he has built up the Science Department until it is now considered to be one of the best in the state. Prof. Welch has done commendable institute work. His lectures are instructive and scholarly productions. He has contributed to educational periodicals on scientific and educational themes, and is the author of the Chemical Laboratory Manual now in use in the Clarion Normal. Buck- nell conferred the degree of M. S. on Prof. Welch in 1907. It IS to that personality, strong, true, chivalrous and firm that we pay our grateful tribute. We assure you dear Dad that what you bring into the class room is a constant stimulus to better things. We thank you for your friendly interest in our work and progress, and if in this little tribute we have exceeded the conventional limit of personal allusions, let our excuse be that the debt we owe should at least be ac ' :nowIedged if it cannot be paid. We meet at one gate When all ' s over. The ways they are many and wide, And seldom are two ways the same, side by side. May we stand at the same little door when all ' s done. The ways they are many, the end it is one. Owen Meredith. Model School The first of the school year of 1913 found this department of the Normal School under the charge of Miss Rice, with Miss Jones and Miss Klahr as assistant teachers and supervisors. Miss Klahr is principal of the Kindergarten, and critic teacher. Miss Jones joined the faculty of the Normal School, the first of the year, as assistant principal of the Model School. She spends a great part of her time in giving lectures at institutes. ou may ask what is the Model School? To us, as seniors, it is a school of practice, wherein we strive to perfect ourselves in the art of teach- ing. We here put to test what we have learned in the Normal, prove our capacities, and develop the qualities which make most for future success. It is not exactly what the name implies. It is a model for anyone wishing to organize a school for children; but the pupils are not always model pupils and the teachers are sometimes inclined the same way. Besides the practice teaching, we must meet the critic teacher, receive instructions and go over our difficulties with her, both those which we have met and those which she has perceived during the week. Criticisms by the t:c teachers are always accepted in the same helpful and cheerful manner in which they are given. During the Spring Term of 1912, we as prospective teachers for 1913, met Miss Rice every other day and were given lessons in Methods of Teach- ing, Discipline, Cleanliness of school-room, and all other work which goes to make teaching pleasant and successful. This was preparation for our work of the next year in the Model School. In this class, we were also required to visit the Model School and observe the work going on there, and then at the next recitation give the report of our observation, and criticize the work going on there. Questions of discipline were brought up by members of the class and discussed by all. The work covered in the Model School extends fiom the first to the ninth grade inclusive. The work accomplished is equal to that of a graded city school. When a pupil graduates from the Model, he is fully prepared to enter the first year of the Normal course. He has had a start in Latin, Algebra, and Manual Training, and therefore need not start in the be- ginning classes in all the first year branches. He can go on with the work begun in the Model School and complete it more thoroughly in the Normal. Each student teacher is required to plan his lessons for a week in ad- vance of his teaching. This plan must be submitted to the principal of the Model School for any criticisms or corrections. In this way we know how much we are expected to do and how to do it. Work in the Model School is like work of any kind, some days every- thing seems to go wrong, and we leave our class feeling as if our end were near but probably the next day will be just the opposite. All in all, this department of school life is one of the most interesting. We strive to get from it what it aims to give us, namely efficiency, morally, mentally and in- tellectually, so that we may be able to take the initiative in the work for which we are training. SamUEL O. Logan. 101 Wl The Music Department The lover of music I am sure, will join with us in saying that the course of study which the Music Department of C. S. N. S. furnishes, embraces all that is necessary in order to acquire a thorough technique, artistic interpretation, and a musical equipment in its fullest sense. The Music Department is under the supervision of Miss Mane Senecal, who is a graduate of Thomas Normal Training School, Detroit, Mich., and Teachers ' College, Greeley, Col. ; at these Colleges she has received the Pd.M. degree. She also was a student of Jennie M. Stoddard, Detroit, Mich. Miss Senecal is rapidly gaining pronounced distinction in her work here as director. She succeeded Miss Margaret Reutter (Fitzgerald), who super- vised this department for three years and who has won for herself a name, both as teacher and friend. The Orchestra, which is conducted by Prof. Rohr, was organized under his thorough supervision, and is now numbered among the best. It is in great demand for all social functions given by the school, and they are al- ways willing to respond when called upon. One of the most recently organized features in the music line is the mixed chorus. This formerly was a Girls ' Glee Club, but by a unanimous vote It was decided to organize a mixed chorus and the following officers were elected: Director, Miss Marie Senecal; President, Susan D. Kribbs; Secretary, Margaret Walker. It now consists of about sixty members. The Senior Double-Quartette of the school consists of the following members: First Soprano Lula A. Linza; Second Soprano, Mildred Weaver; First Alto, Susan D. Kribbs; Second Alto, Julia Fitzgerald; First Tenor Harry A. Zell; Second Tenor, Fred W. Moore; First Bass, George W. Supplee; Second Bass, W. Ray Smith. The Mandolin Club consisting of about twenty-five members, is lead by Prof. L. J. Rohr. S. D. K.— W. R. S. B ' ximb ip V -- . ; MM ' . :r ( ■ix ' V H |, -r.

Ray Smith Membership .. HERMAN G. ScHRECONGOST One of the principal characteristics of school life at Clarion is the interest which is taken in the Christian Association work. The faculty and students do not allow the cul- tivation of the intellectual side of their lives to become of more importance than the spirit- ual; they feel that only in this they may become really useful men and women. On, March 13, 1912, the officers of the Association for the year ' 12 and ' 13 were installed. At this time they made their plans for the opening of the Spring Term. At the opening of each term the ' . M. C. A. takes upon itself the duties most naturally suited to such an organization. The first Saturday evening of each term, the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. have a joint reception for faculty and students in order that those who are unacquainted may meet the teachers and older students. The Association holds meetings in Music Hall on Wednesday evening of each week. Each meeting is conducted by some member of the Association. In these meet- ings, freedom of thought, prayer and song make each fellow feel at home. The Associations have been very fortunate this year in having occasionally special leaders for the Sunday evening meetings. Exceedingly helpful addresses were given by the ministers of the town. Among other addresses especially helpful were Paul at Athens, given by Dr. Harry M. Shafer; Go, speak to that young man, by Dr. Ballentine; Be thou an ensample, by Prof. W. Y. Welch; Youth and old age, by Prof. W. R. Egbert; and Come, let us reason together, by Prof. S. E. Acor. Another great help to our Association was the valuable instruction and inspiration given us by our new State Student Secretary, Evan W. Thomas, who visited us on December 13, 1912. He showed us that a conscientious Christian life was worth while. The Association sent Chas. Neale to the Presidents ' Conference at Carlisle during the first part of the year. On February 17, 1913, the Association sent as delegates to the Y. M. C. A. Convention at Williamsport, Mr. Herman G. Schrecongost, Mr. Hayes E. Shellito and Mr. Harry A. Zell. The delegates brot from the Convention a very in- spiring report. During the latter part of the year, the spiritual life of the Y. M. C. A. was quick- ened. Many gave their lives to Christ and united with the church of their preference. For the success of the revival meetings the Association is largely indebted to Dr. Ballen- tine, Prof. Wilkinson, Prof. Acor and Mr. Harry Arnold. Our Association has been very fortunate in electing and selecting the members of its Cabinet for the ensuing year. On the whole this has been a good year in our Association, and judging by the past, we may even hope for better things in the future. C. H. N. Ill Y. W. C. A. President LuLA A.

A. in giving a reception where the new students meet both the old students and the faculty. The Association continues to take an active part in the social life of the school throughout the year, keeping always before the student the highest standard of social life. Each Wednesday evening a devotional service is held; each meeting is led by a member of the Association. On Sunday morning, a song service is held in the Chapel, being conducted by a member of the Y. M. or Y. W. These services have proved to be very helpful and inspiring to the students. Each Sunday evening the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. have joint meetings, which are held in the Chapel. The meetings are usually led by a student, but occasionally the different ministers of the town or some other prominent speaker, addresses the meeting. During the year the Association has observed, aside from the regular meetings, The Week of Prayer in November, and The Students Day of Prayer in February. As our Association is a member of the National ' . W. C. A., we were entitled to a visit of the Territorial Student Secretary, Miss Eleanor Richardson, who brought to us the results of experience in other Associations that helped us to solve our local problems. In June, 1912, the Association sent Lulu Linza and Mary Jones to a Summer Conference at Eagle Mere, Pa. In February, 1913, Miriam Mcllhatten and Mabel Barloo were sent as delegates to a convention at Pittsburgh. At these conventions, the girls meet other Association Workers and receive suggestions and new ideas from the instructors. They return to the school inspired to do better and more efficient work for their own Association. L. A. L. 113 Art The whole world without art and dress. Would be but one great wilderness. And mankind but a savage herd, For all that nature has conferred; This does but roughen and design. Leaves art to polish and refine. —Buller. It is always true that where a number of ambitious young people are gathered together in the interest of education, there are those who seek to give some tangible or concrete form to their appreciation of the beautiful. Every human being has implanted in him a love of beauty and at some time or other wishes that he could express it in a manner suitable to the sub- ject. It was in response to the desire of a number of students that the Art Department of C. S. N. S. was created unde r the able and efficient super- vision of Miss Lorena Givan, who is herself a talented artist. The longings of these young people were encouraged and directed into the proper channel until ideas bloomed into scenes of beauty such as landscapes, green hills, wind, ing rivers, animals and flowers. TTie Greeks believe that all that was beautiful was good. Certainly it is true. In portraying scenes of beauty, the artist ' s mind has been filled with thoughts higher and nobler than those of every day life. Purer aspira- tions and ideals have been implanted. Who can measure the infinite good accomplished by such a means? Every Monday morning when the bell announces ten o ' clock, a little band of artisans gather in Miss Givan ' s class-room. There, freed from thoughts of every day life found pleasure in the pursuit of the delightful vocation, painting and drawing. Here we entered, not with fear and trem- bling, for harmony and peace reigned there. We were always sure of the sympathetic understanding of a patient and interested artist. We shall never be able to fullv appreciate the help derived from it. Who, indeed, can estimate the possibilities of a -nind ennobled by high thoughts, coupled with determination to succeed. And as we close our work here, we can only feel glad that we have grasped the opportunity as it has inspired us to higher achievements. L.

BixlER Football Our athletic field, which was much improved during the summer by a fence, grand-stand and bleachers, was first initiated by the yelling and plung- ing of the enthusiastic gridiron warriors, lead by Captain Snyder. After a few days some of these same warriors, failing to make the varsity, became discouraged and failed to appear at practice. Thus they left the varsity to develop themselves, without any resistance. With this handicap the varsity had the wonderful record of losing only one game and it was the fast DuBois High School that made them bow their heads. G. S.

About thirty candidates responded, in- cluding four men of last year ' s varsity. Out of this material, one of the fastest teams that ever represented the school, was developed. They started their schedule on Thanksgiving by defeating the fast Alumni team. After having a taste for victory they were not satisfied until they had captured five consecutive games.

There are seven men of last year ' s varsity left and several new men that are showing varsity form. About forty candidates responded for the first practice which consisted of light throwing and fielding. Along with Coach Carson, the school has secured the services of Harry McCauley, a former Grove City star athlete. These two men are working hard to de- velop one of the fastest teams that ever represented C. S. N. S. The first game of our schedule of ten games opens on April i 9, at home, with the fast DuBois H. S. team. 123 T ennis L. G. Carson. Coach Tennis, among the other sports, is an enthusiastic feature of the school. When the call is made for students to join the tennis association, the enthusiasm is then shown by the large number that responds. The tennis courts are as good as can be found in any school and are three in number, with the possibility of adding two more. Clarion has produced some fine tennis players and has participated in several tournaments with other Nor- mals. Although they have not won any special laurels, they have been spurred on to p lay a clean game, and fight to the finish. This year the tournament is to be held at Clarion, and we all are looking for- ward for our Alma Mater to win. In all of our sports we have the cooperation of the faculty. As long as true sports- manship IS our ideal, nothing but success can be the returns of our athletics. Gymnasium The girl ' s physical training work of the Fall term of ' 12 was under the instruction of Mary E. Boyce. After finishing her term ' s work successfully, on account of her health she was permitted to leave C. S. N. S., and return home. Two weeks after the opening of the Winter term. Miss Mary Murray, from the New England Frontier, came. She took up the work which showed its results at the end of the term in the annual public demonstration of the Physical Training Department. The Senior girls ' numbers on the program were carried out well. The Lantern Drill was the most picturesque, the Spanish Dance the most active and graceful, the Country Dance showed the pleasure and fun connected with the work, and lastly may be men- tioned the Dumb Bell Drill which showed the accurateness and form by which the work has been carried on. Great has been the Gymnasium work so far in the formerly constituted room, but how great the work will be in the future, in the long promised New Gymnasium can not be realized in the minds of the ' 13 Seniors.

N., the Bancroft Literary Society stands out as one of the noblest and best organizations of our school. There being but two literary societies, gives each one half the number of enrolled students, and after a stu- dent is chosen a member of one, he at once begins to show his willingness to further the work of his society. Every literary organization would be valueless without having a noble aim, and the Bancroft Society is not lacking there. The chief aim of this organization is to give each member the opportunity to improve his literary ability and to become more self-confident. The average number of Bancroft meetmgs each term is six, and the meetings this year have been most helpful and entertaining. Each programme is arranged by a committee, which is composed of eight students and one member of the faculty, and is arranged in such a way as to be of literary value as well as a form of diversion. Time and space will not permit the mention of all the excellent programs which have been given by the Bancrofters throughout the year. The year 1913 has spelled Good Luck instead of Bad Luck, and the Bancrofters work on in their increased strength and courage. We started in life with high aims, and no obstacle has been formidable enough to turn us from the paths by which we, the Bancrofters, chose to advance our society to its goal. Franklin Officers F. L.

Ray Smith Secretary Mary Brown 130 Franklin History When we hear the name Frankhn, it at once brings before us an image of Benjamin Frankhn, and brings to our memory his hfe and character. He for whom our society is named, should be one of our ideal lives, and who, by the study of his life should help us to reach our highest ideal. Since our society is named for him, we must each one be a Franklin, and to be a Frank- lin, we must know some of his traits of character, and some of the things he did for the world, for our nation, and for us individually. The aims of the Frankhn Literary Society are, first, to develop original- ity; second, to give practice in appearing before an audience; third, to acquaint its members with Parliamentary rules and the proper procedure in a business meeting. The programs are under the supervision of the faculty, and are generally arranged so as to present one theme, such as art, travel, or literature. It would be impossible to tell of all the interesting and successful pro- grams that have been rendered, for to mention would necessitate the men- tion of many. The work of the Society closes each year with a contest. At the present time the Franklin and the Bancroft Societies have the same number of points, won in the different contests. When next the societies meet at the close of the Spring term of 1913, the leadrship for the ensuing year will be de- termined. The Franklin Society, under her colors. Purple and White, hopes to continue the excellent work done in the past and to become a more vital part of the student ' s life. F. D. The Lost Valentine It was tlic evening of the thirteenth of February. In a room in the The Girl ' s Semi- nary in the little town of K , Mary Elliott, a bright young student of the institution with her mouth full ol hair pins was busily engaged in trying to arrange her mass of hair into some sort of decency. She was interrupted in the midst of the proceedings, for the seventeenth time only, by a loud rap at the door. Dropping all her hair pins in order to say Come, she was surprised to see the maid enter with A package for Miss Elliot. In her excitement she entirely forgot the delicate task which she had hitherto been performing. She wondered what the package could be. Perhaps a box of home-made candy or a cake or what might it not be. One never can tell what all a package may contain. Alas, however, for human hopes! On unwrapping the package she found only a book and a prosaic one at that which she had lent lo her friend, John Hastings, a few days previous. Thoroughly disgusted with herself for wasting so much valuable time in speculation as to the contents of the package, she tossed the book on the table, which though usually piled high had one corner unoccupied, and again resumed the arduous task of combing her hair. At last she was through and seating herself in the one comfortable chair the Seminary afforded, she began wondering what kind of valentines the following day would bring. Of course there would be one from John Hastings. Hadn ' t she known him ever since she sat opposite him in the fourth grade and used to pass across candy, wrapped up in untidy notes?. Thru all their childhood days he had never yet failed to send her a valentine. Now he was a gay, sentimental youth, who had grown entirely too ob- streperous for the quiet old people to endure any longer, as a result his parents had decided lo send him lo a Military Academy also in K . On consulting John as to whether he was willing to go, they found he had no ob- jections whatever to changing his abode from the quiet country village to the lively and attractive town. Not least among the many desirable attractions of this place was his close proximity to Mary. Mother Hastings had doubtless overlooked the fact that her little boy had grown to be a handsome, strapping, young man who might prove himself popular in the military academy, likewise in the Ladies ' Seminary. One day while calling on Mary at the Seminary, their conversation had turned to books. He was very fond of reading and she had very generously offered to loan him a book which belonged to her next door neighbor, Margaret Edison. This was the book that John had so carefully returned. Late in the evening in walked Maragret for a friendly call and as she was leaving, she noticed her book on the table. Thinking it would ease the table a trifle of its already heavy load, she picked up her book and carried it home with her. But the book was the bearer of that expected valentine. Instead of sending one under separate cover, John had written a very sentimental little note and put it in the book when he sent it back and so the valentine reached the wrong destination. Accidentally opening the book that even- ing, perhaps to see what kind of a Goop had used it, Margaret ' s eyes fell upon the valentine. To M. E. In very, very olden times When Ancient Rome was new, ' Tis said that sweethearts drew by lot To find a sweetheart true. Enclosed, dear love, your lot you ' ll find The numbei 23. And Oh, I pray the fates be kind And cast your lot with me. Margaret knew as soon as she opened that note that it was intended for Mary mstead of herself but she thought it would be a good joke to answer it by return mail. John re- ceived the following — Oh, yes, dear heart I will be kind. I ' ll cast my lot with you. And as my number you must know You ' ll find it 62. Valentine ' s Day dawned bright and clear, bringing plenty of valentines for Mary but still she was not satisfied. The one she had been so certain of had not arrived. She thought perhaps it had dropped out unnoticed from among the numerous valentines which the teacher had been compelled to sort that morning. So she went up to that worthy and inquired whether a letter or package for her had not been mislaid. The reply came in short and thundering accents, No. Returning to her room, very sadly she spent the rest of the evening in weeping and lashing mankind in general. However, every dark cloud has a silver lining, and the following evening, being recrealon evening, John joyfully called at the Seminary and rang Mary ' s number. Mary went down very reluctantly and even halted altogether for a few seconds on the last step. But gaining courage, she soon found herself in the parlor confronting her lover. With a confident smile, he at once began to thank her for the happmcss she had given by answering his valentine the way she had and assured her thai he would do l,is best to keep her from ever regretling what she had said. During this speech, Mary stood like a Sphinx. What could he mean, she won- dered. He surely must have lost his reason. The room was filled with happy couijles and it seemed that every eye was riveted on her, including those of the vigilant and evet present preceptress, who was always on hand to preserve decorum, so an outburst of wrath was impossible. At last composing herself, she replied, I ieceived no valentine from you and further I didn ' t send you any. Please explain yourself. John began that difficult task of trying to explain himself and at last produced the note. Mary at once recognized the writing but didn ' t think of the book and couldn ' t understand hew Margaret had outwitted her. Prior to this, Margaret had been seated on the opposite side of the room, entertaining a young man. But since Ma ' y ' s entrance, she had kept up a constant giggle without any apparent cause. Her friend marveled at this but said nothing. When she saw things were not progressing very well on the other side of the house, she excused herselt Ircm her friend and soon explained things to the satisfaction of both John and Mary. Mary was so happy that she readily forgave Margaret and gave John such a satisfactory answer that the next day that irrepressible youth sent Mother Hastings the following message: Please wish me joy, oh Mother Mine, For sweetest Mistress Mary Is now my own dear Valentine And is no more contrary. Rennie McFadden. Dramatics The Department of Dramatics has been one of great interest to the Clarion Normal School. Last year and this year will long be remembered as memorable ones by the Senior Class of 1913. The growth and development of the Dramatics are due to the eminent directing of Miss Mina Decker, a graduate of Emerson College of O ratory. Our first attempts at any work of this kind were in the Literary Societies and Public Speaking Class. It was on Tuesday evening, February 20, 1912, when about fifty of the Middle Year Class presented the Operetta, Miss Bob White, to the student body and Faculty. The Operetta was a success in every particular; the music was excellent; tlie dancing and acting were of exceptional merit. So well was the Operetta given that it was repeated by request, a few nights later. One lime in the year which is well remembered by the students. Faculty and Alumni, respectively, is Thanksgiving, if for no other reason than the Senior Class Play, which is always given Thanksgiving evening. This year, Ingomar, the Barbarian, a play in five acts, by Frederick Halm, was given. The scene is in Gaul, a century after the founding of Massilia by the Phoenicians. The cast of characters is as follows: Actea Janet Haugh Parthenia Ruth Russell Polydor J. Wesley Ogden Lykon Samuel O. Logan Theano Miriam Mcllhatten Elphenor ( Delbert Decker Neocles { Greek Citizens Allan Baker Amyntas ' Roy R. Beck Herald Harold Ballentine Timarch of Massilia W. Ray Smith Ambivar f Harry A. Zell Trinobantes Allemanni Wesley Ogden Novia ( Harold Ballentine Myron Charles H. Neale Samo Allan M Baker Ingomar George W. Supplee .Alastor Milo C. Calhoun Market Vender Lee Campbell Other Citizens Horence Maxwell, Bertha Scowden 135 The synopsis of the play is as follows: Act I. Poiydor, a selfish, conceited, avaricious merchant of Massilia, desires to wed Parthenia. daughter of Actea and Myron, a poor armorer. She spurns him and his offer. Myron is captured by the Allemanni who demands silver for his ransom. Unable to meet their demands, Parthenia then offers herself to Poiydor, if he will ransom her father. He. in a spirit of revenge, refuses. Act II. Parthenia goes in search of her father. She is taken by a band of the Allemanni to the camp of their chief. Ingomar, where she is accepted as hostage for Myron until he can earn and pay the required ransom. Act III. Ingomar slowly and reluctantly realizes that love is an all-conquering power. Alle- manni plan to sell Parthenia as a slave. Plot fails. Ingomar grants Parthenia her free- dom and conducts her to Massilia. Act IV. Ingomar relinquishes his forest freedom for Greek civilization and becomes a citizen of Massilia. Act V. The Allemanni are on the warpath against the Allobrogi. Massilia ' s citizens, fear- ing that they are coming to attack them, desire Ingomar to find out the secrets of their camp. He refuses. Is accused of being a spy. Assumes the bondage of slavery to cancel Myron ' s debt to Poiydor. Shows that the expedition comes in peace. Timarch discharges the debt. Banishes Poiydor from the city, and grants Ingomar lands, title, and Parthenia for his wife. Miss Ruth Russell, as Parthenia, the Massilian Armorer ' s daughter, was the living impersonation of lovely girlhood and thoroughly won her audience in her denunciation of the sordid miser Poiydor. Miss Janet Haught, as Actea. played with dignity and poise. Fulfilling the part cf Timarch without acting. Mr. Smith, by his voice, carriage. sustaining grand manner, was perfectly suited to the part and without a shade of overacting. The most earnest concentration appeared in the part of Myron, the harrassed. complaining old armorer, developed by Charles Neale ; and in the character of Poiydor. the ugly miser, as developed by Mr. Wesley Ogden. Mr. George Washington Supplee had many qualifications for his part aside from the required stature, among which were his unvarying ease, fluency and flexibility of expression. Ingomar radiates the magnetism of a primitive, untrained nature, masterful and full of power, yet equally responsive to gentle influences. It isn ' t at all doubtful but that in a few years from now. when reading the names of prominent actors and actresses of the day. many of the above mentioned will be found. F. M. M. Midnight at a Normal L.ong hours of hard work with hltlc rest become monotonous, and often result in illness. This is most frequently found in the school life. Fortunately the laws ol nature made provisions whereby every one murt look after his own individual self. Since we all know that a club with a goc.l commander at its head can do more and better work than if it were not organized, we Jjcided to form into an organized body. This was first taken up in the early Fall of 1912, and at the first meeting it was further decided that each catastrophe should be given at or near midnight. The first affair of importance occurred about the middle part of the Fall term. This was given under the name of the sheet parade. Doors were thrown open and even the town ' s people helped to furnish enjoyment to the band of bravados. As time rolled on and our studies again became arduous; another game was listed, entitled Normal Olympic Games or better known as Bowling in the Hall. Both of these aforementioned sports met with great favor (among the boys). Renewed by their enjoyment, each student worked with double zeal for some time. Then as the term was nearly spent it was decided that one last final exercise should be given in honor of the fast flying old year. This was a musical contest, as it were, and was called The Tin-Horn Minstrel. It was fully enjoyed by every boy in the Dormitory with the exception of a few sallow sleepy-heads who had come from the farm lands, who had as yet not learned what school life meant. A few of the faculty who preferred rest instead of indulging in youthful enjoyment were awakened by the charming music and afterwards were found in some dark corner trembling as they feared that Gabriel had come to bear them across the river Jordan to their future homes. The long night dragged on and the gladdened hearts at the first dawn of the morning were found at their windows trying to survey what great disaster had occurred during the night. As no signs of any terrible fate could be found it was decided that the club gave another rally and this was made more clear when the band marched out, each musician, with a smile across that part of his face which is most used. Every- one reported a fine time at the minstrels, but unfortunately it was not all over. As the day wore on Doctors were called to administer to the sick, classes refused to meet and groups of boys were stationed in every corner expressing their enjoyment of the previous night. The faculty, recovering from their great fright, were coming forth from their hiding places, with white faces, to behold another real day and furthermore to bear down vengeance. As the clock slowly ticked away the hours, many a brave fearless man was made to quake as he felt his feet touch gently the green carpet which he had been warned by his former schoolmates never to tread upon. Alas, the great day was over, and the victory was won. A record was made which will go down in history for many centuries which fathers will tell to their sons and to their sons ' sons. D. D. 13S Olympian Games The bad boys in Steven ' s Hall Have quite a taste for bowling. One night they got five balls And started them a rolling. ' Twas shortly after midnight On a still October morn. I ne ' er had so great a fright Since the day that I was born. That a plot was formed we know For rolling them at that time; Cause, Oh My! how they did go. And they made a lovely chime. The ones who did the bowling Have never as yet been found. For they were not sent rolling Till the Profs, were sleeping sound. If you wish to learn this game Just come in to Steven ' s Hall The bowlers have won great fame. For they are the best of all. Logan Woodwakd. She Knew the Game He made a good fair tackle First down and one to gain, cried he, As he dropped right down beside her Upon the broad settee. I ' m ' umpire ' for this game. The blushing maid replied; The play had not been started ' So I ' ll call you ' off side ' . Now I think that ' s unfair; You do not know the rules; That play belongs to a series Used in our college schools. Don ' t try to kid the umpire. Quick spoke the maid demure, our play ' s not in the rule book; I ' ll look to be quite sure. Said he, I made a ' fair catch, ' So what ' s the use of scolding. Young man, quoth she, if you don ' t watch, Vou ' l ' gpt ' pena ' ized for holding. The Tin Horn Minstrel All the world is wrapped in stillenss. There is darkness everywhere. Everything is resting sweetly. Save some mischief here and there. The night is cold, and dark, and dreary; And the wind is silent, too. It is nearly Christmas season. For the frost replaces dew. Hark! Then some sudden rustle. Then the hall lights cease to shine. While the rustle grows to murmur. Some one whispers down the line. Boys be ready, hold your spirit. Soon the clock will tell the time. Don ' t get frightened, keep your spirit. And peal forth your merry chime. Now I hear the town clock striking In the quiet midnight air. Twelve sharp strokes are heard ibrating. Then the hall is all astir. Hark! Then a tm-horn is squeaking In a corner far remote. Then, I hear the concert starting In sharps, in flats, and other notes ' . The boys fly, the Profs, are coming. Lock vour door, and sober down. If you ' re caught you ' ll tread green carpet. And perhaps you ' ll leave the town. Alas! Alas! In all their glory. Two were caught that very night. They departed on the morrow. Spite of all their school-mates fight. Bowling ball and tin-horn spirit Still exists in Steven ' s Hall. Soon our school days will be ended. Then upon the world we ' ll call. School-mate friends, l?t ' s make life cheery; Live a young life while you may. When you ' re old, and life is dreary Just ring up those Clarion days. Delbert Decker. 141 .)i V UM M U A lv ' :..

In the middle of the paper, Roman numerals must be seen. Learn the law of gravitation. Look not on it as a bore. If you ever dare Forget it. You are doomed forever-more. Learn the law of falling bodies. Pressure of the air compressed. Siphons, pumps, balloons and magnets. Fields of force and all the rest. Midnight hour has long departed. Ere the notes are quite complete. And the weary head is pillowed. For an hour or two of sleep. Thus through day and night we labor. And endure the mental strain. But ' twill end as all things earthly. So dig in with might and main. Then when earthly toil is over. We ' ll exchange this world of care. For 1 bright and heavenly mansion Hid! Oh Dad! No Physics there. Irene McMasters. c onundrums i ow does the moon differ from Lee Campbell? Ans- The moon gets full on p once a month. Why is a Junior ' s hal like the base ball field?

But we ' re not old fashioned enough to believe it; ' Tis a shame if such folly should cling to us still. Thru ' learning and uprightness ' e ' ll win the honor And esteem of our fellows. Then all must agree. That this class of thirteen has proved beyond question. Naught but good luck accompanies the one and the three. We ' ll seek not to dazzle the world with our glory, Nor vaunt of the honors which we shall obtain. How can we discern what the future holds for us? Any boasting on our part would he worse than vain. We ' ll simply endeavor to do each day ' s duties, To bear, uncomplaining our part in the strife; Use every advantage that crosses our pathway. To make each move count in this battle of life. Some laugh and declare that our hopes are but empty. Let them jeer at our dreams, and our plans for the fight. The effort is weak, but the standard is lofty. Ah ! We know we must struggle and toil up the height. And so, for the sake of the tie that now binds us. For the fame of the class and of Clarion dear. We ' ll each do our best with the every day duties. And all will be well in the end, never fear. From the standpoint of numbers the class is a leader. It being the largest produced by the school. But we boast not of numbers, as we are not boasting. So even in this we will not break our rule. Labor omnia vincit. ' ou are our motto. .And the keys to the gate of our future you hold. May the doors yet unopened conceal a bright pathway. Which time in its flight to our eyes will unfold. Egan (asleep on the ball field) — I wonder if she loves me? Talk about phonographs — Enterline and Jefferson talk for themselves. Miss Givan — Why did Hannibal cross the Alps? John Bolam — For the same reason the hen crossed the road. You don ' t catch me with no puzzles.

Clarion ' s Hearticultural Department The Case Tree or arbor cupidae is a very fickle plant, and demands constant attention in order to insure good results. It is a member of the justustu family and closely related to the Lettuce alone. It flourishes in all climates. It is usually found to consist of two trunks, very close together, the branches being sometimes mterlocked. The leaves are heart shaped. This tree does not always blossom at stated seasons, but it is likely to develop into the blooming cereus variety at any time. Like the oak, it soemtimes has many parasites preying upon it. The most common of there parasites are the gossip and slander vines whose poisonous odor may stunt the growth of the tree and in exceptional cases exterminate its life entirely. The canker worm of jealo usy which occasionally attacks the roots is also very harmful. The extended palm (palma extenta) or glad hand is a plant that appears in many forms about the college. Among the more common varieties is the palma fraternitatis or frat grip. Then, too, we enjoy the gratulatio-amicorum. or congratulation variety which is especially prized by Seniors about Commencement time. Another common variety is the lebewohl or farewell palm whose fruit leaves a sort of bitter sweet taste. The two-lip or osculatis is a sweet flowering plant, highly prized by both sexes. It blooms most profusely in obscure places where the light is not too strong. In summer It should be culti ated on shaded verandas. In case of indoor cultivation, great caution should be observed. It should be kept away from windows unless the shades be drawn. On no account should it be exposed to the Rubber plant or the Chaperon we;d The bluff-ball is a mushroom or fungus of phenomenally rapid growth. It often springs up during the night or even develops in the class room during the early morning lecitation. Like the puff ball, it possesses no solidity, but is h ' ghlv inflated. When pressed, it exudes hot air. A few of the Profs, fail to distinguish it from real fruit, but a little experience enables cne to recognize it at sight. xf t 0 Hazel Morrison (picking up a bottle of wood alcohol) — Good-bye proud world. Kathryn Daugherty — You will not go to the good place if you do that. Hazel — Oh! yes, I will. I will accidently drop an excuse and say I didn ' t mean to, and get Miss True to sign it. Boys — (Saturday, 4:15) — Come on Egan, play basket ball. Egan — No. I have a girl, mur t clean up. Why do people cry al weddings? They ' re mostly married and haven ' t the nerve to laugh. The Reception Hall was almost vacant. The lights were on and all was radiant, Billy tho ' t we wouldn ' t repeat And girls he kissed Lu on the window seal. Miss Morgan — If you really loved me all the time, why didn ' t you let me know? Mr. Calhoun — I couldn ' t find a post card with the right words on it. Susan Kribbs — I think any ona that has taught Phonetics in Model School can articulate better. Receiving no reply from companion she replied, You know I taught Phonetics.

Claire — ???! ? ! ! ! oo ? etc. We often wondered why the professor of mathematics was so careful to shield his head during a wind storm. A visitor informed us that he wore a piece of burlap covered with sea-weed, and as the sea-weed had dried out there was a possibility of the com- bination taking flight. Where are you going, my pretty maid? To ' Nails ' for ice cream, sir, she said, Alas, he gasped as his face turned blue. For he didn ' t possess a single sou.

A Letter Sent by an inmate of Stevens Hall to a lady member of the Faculty. 44 Castle Manor. — Wyx — on — Styx — My dear Miss Eddy: — I was much pleased to receive by last night ' s post, your letter and the copy of your book, He Loved, but was Lured Away. In this day of the six worst smellers, ' which are very odious to one so highly cultured and cultivated as myself — I s[ eak modestly — it is a pleasure to read such a book as yours. I accept with thanks the inplied hint that Reginald Rexall, paragon of virtues, is none other than myself — I speak modestly. Before the scintillating pyrotechnics of your effervescent and pterodactylic vocabu- lary, I am dumb. I confess to having been once drowned in your stream of words, and I was only resuscitated by artificial respiration. Compared to this child of your brain, Milton ' s Paradise Lost is never found; Pilgrim does not progress; Bacon does not fry; Shakespeare makes much ado about noth- ing; Ben Jonson ' s timber looks like white pine; Decameion and Elsie Dinsmore modestly letire together; Horatio Alger and Balzac, both supporting de Maupassant retire to sym- pathize with Hall Caine, Mane Corelli, Robert Herrick, and Bertha M. Clay (Alias Charlotte M. Braeme ). In fact this masterpiece of yours, with its tatting of phrases, its Battenberg of words, and its quamt similes, metaphors, thinumbobs and whatnots, stands second to none — I speak modestly — except to my own We Parted at Halter. Only the spark of your genius could ignite uch literary fireworks as have made your name a household word, and given you a place in the Hall of Fame between Georgie Sheldon and Geo. Barr McCutchen. I suggest you study the following books: ( 1 ). Murdered at Midnight, by Dr. Jno. Manly, Dh. P. (2). Why I killed my papa, by Elsie Dinsmore (this is excellent for critical situations.) (3). Editors, Critics, Bedbugs, and Other Vermin, by Marie Corelli. (4). Love Letter of a Musician (pianola), or Love Affairs of Literary Men, by Myrtle Reed. I shall be glad to hear of any future literary efforts on your part. Very truly yours, Hilton A. Wick. P. S. — Now I suppose you will sell my autograph for five dollars. — Such is fame! H. A. W. SI ams Ihe Glee Club suie is a fine one. Ha! Ha! Kling! Klang! Hal. I. inn: — ou ' ie the breath of iile to me. Alice F. : — Why don ' t you hold your breath. Mac Kilgour, reading The Rime of the Ancient Manner in Lit. Class: — The Bride- groom ' s doors are wide open. Students (going to dance) : — Is there any of the faculty here? Somebody: — Oh, ' es, here comes Bert Scowden. ' Mr. B. (in German) : — What does ' hell ' mean in this sentence? Beany (sleepily) : — Um-er-why the bad place, of course. Prof. Wijkinbon, lecturing on war in Turkey, told of a girl being stung by a serpent on the eve of her 1 8th birthday. Ruth Black (at the table) : — We nill have to learn the boys table manners. Prof. Acer: — ou can ' t learn the boys anything. Ruth: — No, I know. ou have just got to pound it into them. Mis Nolin: — Say, girls, do you know that D. S. doesn ' t stand for Domestic Science but for Dear Sara. The boys all wa nt to say they are going to D. S. A junior ' s lament. My brains are tired, my hands are weak. I am so worn I cannot speak.

Smith: — ' es, I put on a pair of socks without holes. Student: — Calls at office for singing book dedicated to him by school. Dr. Pinks: — Sixty-five cents. Student: — I dedicated my pocket-book. Raymond Anderson: — What the heck is on my ear? Allan Baker: — Nothing at all, Charles Neale is playing with it. Hester Smith ' s favorite song: — Waiting for the Robt. E. Lee (Barlett). A Letter from an Old Senior Dear Classmates: — There is a lime for everything, for work as well as play. A tim; to laugh, a tima to sleep in the beautiful hours of May. A time for people to sympathize, and help  struggling friend. A time to speak to you all and hear your pleasant rhymes hut be sure that m everything you do that you Get out on time. All the world was wrapped with beauty on a quiet Wednesday afternoon in May. The people in the pest house were resting calmly, a? the hours of the day faded away. If a person feels like moving from a closed four cornered room, he must get permission from the authorities and read law books there concerned. If a person is upright and honest and dees what he can, his enemies will approach him wherever he is. Who are your enemies? Test them if you may, and you will ' nd out withcut delay. If a person loses, by the way-side, two golden hours, remember that each is set with sixty diamond minutes, and no matter what profession he is pursuing no reward is offered for they are gone forever. ' et the thing that goes the farthest towards making this life worth whil; is Just a pleasant smile, whether one is in the inside of the pest house looking out or the outside looking in. ' I ' ou may talk about walking on green carpet. Some few have walked it harder than 1. but I will remember the class of 1913 and I thank you each and every one for your kindnesses. Yours to all, Anthony E. Orton, Wattsburg, Pa. Senior Teacher — Now, Johnnie, give me a sentence containi ' g the word ' seldom. Johnnie — My father used to have a ccuple of pigs, but he selled ' em! Girls (in Domestic Science) — Miss Nolin, are you sure these eggs have no chickens 111 them? Miss Nolin — ' es, girls, they are duck eggs. Stanley Welfling (meeting Clara Brady on her way to gym) — Don ' t run so fast Clara or you will lose your wind. Clara — O well, there ' plenty more around here. 167 Mush Prof. Acor (to maid) — How does the baker make these kisses? Maid — I don ' t know but I ' ll find out. Baker ' s Recipe — I armful pretty girls 1 lovely face 2 laughing brown eyes 2 rosy cheeks 2 lips like strawberries Mix well together and press two lips. The result will be astonishing. Frosting — 1 piece of dark piazza. A little moonlight pressed into 1 large or small hand so as not to attract attention. 1 or 2 whiskers. 2 oz. romance. Dissolve 1 -2 doz. glances in a quantity of heslitation and 2 oz. yielding. Place kisses on blushing lips or cheeks, flavor with a slight scream and set aside to Student ' s Banquet First came Rhetoric, Served with a theme. Followed by Latin. A sort of cheese-dream. Next came Algebra With its X, Y, Z ' s Spicy enough To make sneeze. Geometry too. And Parallel lines; Trigonometry after With sines and cosines. A little of French With a si vous plait ; Then morning chapel And all slay away. The last was German, With der, das, die, This course was one Too many for me. For dessert, we were served With exams and tests. Nothing was lacking. Except some rests. 168 The Normal Bell Something breaks upon our slumber. Dreamy music far away, Gently swelling, growing clearer. Bell like tones are soundmg nearer, I must needs wake up, ' tis day, Tis the Normal bell a ringirg. All the world is up, and busy. Forth we go with footsteps light. When duty calls to waiting tasks Then may not our smiles be masks; But be cheery, true, and bright. When the Normal bell is ringing. We are sitting in the class-room. Ah! Woe the bell will never ring. We are weary, tired, and worried; Normal life is much too hurried. Knowledge is an irksome thing; Glad relief! the bell is ringing. And agam we ' re in the class-room. But the scene is other than before. We are eager, calm, attentive; Knowledge is a good mcentive. We will seek it ever more. But. all too soon the bell is ringing. In the evening, when we ' re weary Of cares, that waking life encumber. And dreamland calls alluringly, . . A glad refrain rings out assuringly. And we seek in deepest slumber While the Normal bell is ringing. All our play times and our fetes. When we meet in glad array. The dance at which the graces mingle. The games at which our nerves a tingle, And e ' en class-meetings, their affray Is ushered by the ringing of the bell. At the calm and peaceful ending Of the restful Sabbath day. As evening shadows softly fall, A hush descends upon us all. We to Vespers wend our way, .And the Normal bell is ringing. At last, to-night is a night in June, .An eve of joy, a night of sorrow; Joy HI the work that is all done. Sorrow in partings just begun To be whispered sadly for the morrow, As the Normal bell is ringing. Perhaps, when we are far away. That night and others will return To us in visions of happy times. Of school when we heard the chmnes. And starting, we will listen in dreams To the Normal bell a ringing. Mabel Jefferson. Roaring Farce Chief Bluffer Fred Moore Second Bluffer C.

The 1913 Sequelle s debts are all paid Except this one to the advertisers. We ask you all to help pay this debt. Patronize the dealers who patronize us.

Breathes there a man with soul so dead As never to himself hath said, I am in love. Spring Poem Spring. Oh gentle Spring is coming A lamb-like youth I did adore. But when I kissed him in the gloaming. Faith I trow, it made him sore. • • ' Tis true, my love, our Spring is coming See how the leaf buds dance; O ' er the fields we ' ll soon be roaming.

The Light of Other Days Oft in the stilly night Ere slumber ' s chain has bound me. Fond memory brings the light Of other days around me: The smiles, the tears Of boyhood ' s years The words of love then spoken; The eyes that shone. Now dimmed and gone. The cheerful hearts now broken! Thus in the stilly night Ere slumber ' s chain has bound me. Sad memory brings the light Of other days around me.
