Fairmont State Normal School E. E. MERCER Mr. Mercer is a native of Marion County and a graduate of F. S. N. S. He obtained his degree at the University of Nashville (Tennessee) in 1891. After that he was connected with some of the western schools; his chief work being in the schools of Dardanelle, Arkansas, and Waco, Texas, and later at Berkley Springs, West Virginia. In 1899 Mr. Mercer returned to Fairmont, and for two years was prin- cipal of the local high school. In 1901 he accepted the position of teacher of mathematics at the Normal, which place he has occupied ever since. In the past two or three vears his time has been divided between mathematics and English. The summers of 1901 and 1910 were spent in Europe, and on his last trip he witnessed the famous Passion Play. Mr. Mercer has ahvavs been extremely interested in the welfare of Fairmont Normal and has devoted much time and energy to the school and its work. As al l learned men he has his educational creed : Educate for living .is well as for making a living. Of this creed Mr. Mercer is himself a living epistle. Loved and honored by all of the students as well as the faculty. Daddy Mercer has won a place in the Fairmont Normal which cannot be taken from him. And it is with a feeling of both pleasure and pride that the Senior classes dedicate this, the tenth volume of the Mound, to a man of so superior worth as Mr. Mercer.

“

O W 0 The Old and the New The old seemed far dearer than the new. And the thong-lit of leaving brought a feeling of regret. But as the chrysalis leaves its narrow cell And spreads its wings as a full-grown butterfly, So we left the old and turned our steps to the new. And our pride far surpasses our regret. 11581
