Walter Barnes, a. m. Class Adviser for Senior Normals. The Senior Normal Class congratulates itself on having as its Class Officer a person so broad-minded and so worthy of honor and respect as Mr. Walter Barnes. To each of us he has been, and ever will be, an inspiration for bigger and better things. If, in future years, our bits of service in life will have helped to put lighted candles in darkened corners, let the laurel wreath crown not only the members of the Senior Normal Class, but also our highly esteemed Class Officer, Mr. Barnes.

The class of 1919 soon after their entranc e into the Fairmont State Normal School in September, 1917, discovered the truth of this familiar proverb. The class was small, numbering only thirty-one members, and this number was destined to be still further reduced by the war, which left only the feminine contingent of twenty-three to complete the course. This is a very remarkable circumstance, as it is the first time in the history of the normal school that there have not been male members to add variety to the class. For the class motto, a small word of great meaning was selected PEP, which to us in those strenuous times signified Patience, Energy, and Perseverance. These desirable qualities characterized the entire class in all of its varied activities. A large measure of the success attained by the class may be attributed to the ability and diligence of its popular class officers, Profossors Turner, Shreve, and Barnes, who deserve great credit for their tireless and well directed efforts. And when we receive our diplomas in June as a testimony of the satisfactory completion of our studies, we shall pass out into the broader field of life and endeavor by profitable and serviceable careers to reflect credit upon our Alma Mater.
