It was a remarkable characteristic of this institution that for many years there were but few changes in the teaching force. Dr. Edwards was connected with the in- stitution for fifteen years, Dr. Hewett thirty-two years, Professor Metcalf something more than thirty-two years, Professor Stetson twenty-five years, and there were oth- ers who left the faculty after a long service. Of late, changes have been somewhat more frequent. The de- mand for Normal School men has greatly increased, the salaries have become farrmore attractive, and many things have united to make it more difficult to hold our teachers. It is a frequent remark of the visitors who have not been here for a few years that there are but few familiar faces in the faculty. Wliile there have been many changes, as I have said, the service of the present faculty is quite long. Professor McCormick began his work here as a teacher in 1869, Professor Colton succeeded Professor Seymour in 1888, Miss Hartmann entered the faculty in 1882, Miss Ela in '88, Miss Colby in ,92, Dr. McMurry in 792, Professor Felmley in '90, Professor Manchester in ,90, Miss Wilkins and Miss Lucas inf92, Mrs. McMurry in ,91, and the writer in 1866. The last additions to the faculty are Mr. Manfred J. Holmes and Mr. B. C. Edwards. The former succeeded Professor Galbreath, called away Che 1lnbeg Q-1-4,22-PM I 1 - ' X - ' 2' L- N :if ' ' I -55's-Ext :A 'N an aff 4' P ' W, THE GYMNASIUM 8 ' 'Ctbe 'llnbeg I from us at the close of last year by a large increase in salary, and the latter is an addi- tion to the department of reading and gymnastics. Dr. McMurry returned to us again this year after a leave of absence, succeeding Dr. Van Liew in charge of the Practice School. Dr. Van Liew was called to the State Normal School at Los Angeles at an in- crease of almost 50 per cent in his salary. V This will indicate, in a general way, the leading changes in the organization of the faculty in the last few years, and will also, I think, satisfy our friends that the principle of long tenure of oflice has not been abandoned in this institution. We have been pecu- liarly fortunate in securing most admirable talent at comparatively small salary, and just as soon as the public becomes familiar with the excellence of our teachers, tempting offers begin to present-fthemselves. Although we have been so unfortunate as to lose many admirable men and women, yet it is no exaggeration to say that it is quite pos- sible to get teachers who will never occasion us any such trouble. The course of study is constantly undergoing modification. The most marked changes that have been madefin recent years are along the lines of professional work. Psychology has increased .quite radically over what we had eight years ago. The aggre- gate work in this department is now little short of two years. The most notable change in the work of the practice school is the multiplication of illustrative lessons, of teach- ers' meetings, and of observation work. 'Pupils now take a preparatory course of from half a term to a term in the study of the practice school and its work before entering upon the instruction of classes. While this requirement is not imposed upon all it is found to be quite indispensable for the beginners. Previous numbers of'THE INDEX have made mention-of the more recent additions to our buildings. The Gymnasium,-began in i97, is substantially completed. The third story is occupied by the science department, which is finely housed. In addition to the oliice the floor space aggregates 3600 square feet. The Library is on the second floor of the new building. There is the same area-3600 square feet. It is all in one room which is 'Gbe Hnbeg I' if PRACTICE SCHOOL. I0 'Ctbe Tlnbeg ' beautifully lighted from the north, east, and west. The book stacks are along the south side and are of metal of the familiar pattern furnished by the Library Bureau of Chicago. This leaves a commodious reading room capable of seating comfortably 300 or 400 people. Below the library are the closets, dressing rooms, and the bath room. These are adjacent to the gymnasium which occupies the projection at the left of the main entrance, as shown by the' cut. The bowling alley is not yet completed and the commodious swimming pool must await a more favorable season for its completion. By the removal of the science department to the new building, the old science rooms in the third story of the main building are vacated and- will probably be utilized for so- ciety purposes. The plan now is to take out the partition in the old society halls, cnt off about twenty feet from the south end of the Philadelphian society for a parlor, change the position of the platform to one side, possibly, and then turn it over to one of the so- cieties. The rooms at the east end of the building will be arranged similarly and thus the societies will have ample space at last to accommodate their entire membership. Still much remains to be done. We must have a good kindergarten: music, which has been sadly neglected, must be taught by a skillful teacher, and manual training along the lines of Sloyd or some other development of the principle must also find a place here. The state has, indeed, been a noble benefactor to this institution, and its generous help will be more fully accorded than ever before. Public sentiment, which was hostile or indifferent, is now altogether favorable. Reasonable appropriation bills meet with no opposition, and the demand for professionally prepared teachers is multiplied manyfold within the last few years. There is every reason for the Normal School men to feel that they are abundantly appreciated, and that the opportunity for their best work is really opening to them. JOHN W. Cook.

D RIGHTONIA opened the fall term of l97 with crowded hall and enthusi- J astic audiences. All looked forward to and worked for the contest, from J M ' K Q the start, as the event of the term and year. Charles Allen, as presi- S Q dent, and Nellie Fincham, as secretary, welcomed the many new members 'rs'-7 to our meetings, and our programs were very interesting and entertaining. Three of our contestants were taken from the entering section, and although our best talent was reserved for the contest, still our programs did not lack in interest and enter- tainment. Mr. Skinner gave a iine musical program in the fall term. We have been especially benefited by the criticisms given on our programs by the members of the faculty, and thank them for their interest and help. Miss Lucas has delighted us often with her classic readings. While we were defeated in the annual contest, we can bear our defeat with a good grace, as it has shown us wherein we were lacking, giving us a stimulus for next year. So if we will learn from experience, and profit by our lessons, we shall regain our lost laurels, and Wrightonia shall be victorious. . After the excitement was over, we settled down, and with Clara Snell as president and David Becketias secretary, had a busy and profitable term. Two series of papers, one on scientific subjects, the other on art, headed our original work. Music has been especially good on our programs this year. 'Ctbe 'llnbeg WRIGHTONIAN HALL .

The last Saturday night of this term occurred our inter-section contest, Which was more exciting than usual. A good deal of feeling was aroused between the sections, but everything went off smoothly, and the contest was a success. Our society has reason to be proud of results shown by each section. Surely We need not fear or doubt that victory is ours next fall if the Winners from this contest are with us. The spring election of officers passed off quietly. Herman Doud became president, and Bessie Cowles, secretary. Warm Weather did not interrupt our society Work as early as usual this year, but We soon noticed the effects of the spring Weather. Still, the pro- grams, though short, are interesting, and We feel repaid for our efforts to keep them up to the standard Wrightonia has established. We hope to begin our next year in our larger hall, and thus be able to accommodate all with seats. ' D. L. B. Q7 ' ity the 'llnoeg w...... ,fs Q -sf: :3.ri,f ,vu ESMERALDA. Carrie Travis.

HILADELPHIANS are well pleased with the results of the past yearis Q, society work. Once more they feel that they are the formidable equals gf, 'Q' 3 of the Wrightonians, in intellectual, as well as in physical contest. . Again, they feel, looking back over the many evenings spent together ' X -' at society, that the great majority of the programs have been pleasing, interesting, and instructive. The presidents elected for the different terms were as follows: Mary Rickards, spring, James Fairchild, winter, and Roy Mize, fall. The spring term went along in its usual smooth and calm order. During the winter term, one of the most prominent features of our evenings was a debate. Since we are to be teachers, and are to come into closer touch with public life, we ought to be logical in our thinking and to have full possession of ourselves in public. Now, the successful debater is the person who can think on his feet and we, as teachers, to do our best work, must take advantage of those influences most conducive to this re- sult, consequently, we hope that this element of our programs so well begun will continue. Owing to bad weather, the Intersectional contest was poorly attended. The Lower Sections made a creditable showing, but Section C won easily. The fall term marked a new era in the struggle for supremacy between the two societies. The spirit of contest, heretofore confined to the intellectual side alone, was now even carried to the field of athletics. In consequence, many games were played during the Tlnbeg PHILADELFHIAN HALL 'Gbe llnbeg 23 the year, the results of which are, the Wrightonians--thanks to the young ladies-stand victorious in basket-ball, the Philadelphians in football. Our reveries are wont to take us back through the dimness of time to the fall of '92, Through the gray light of these intervening years familiar visions appear and disappear before my sight. Five successive times I see the picked champions of the orange and black leave camp and advance to the attack. Five successive times I see them return routed, with banner trailing in the dust. The sixth time they advance, noble warriors they are with determination stamped on every brow, afar off they meetg the fray begins Deep voices of wisdom long fill the air and above all, are softly wafted back sweet strains of music. The rhythmical voices steadily rise and fall and iinally subsideg the music subtly swells, long reverberates, and finally diminishes until it is no more, and all is silence. Plzilaclelphia, the champion of the day! The inter-society contest has been won. But look you, the enemy's ranks are forming. Two points are we ahead but two contests behind.

Fortuna is fickle indeed, yet pf 5 We are all at her mercy. Especially is she capricious when embodied in the form of six judges deciding our fate in the Inter-Society Contest. We QQ, work and fight, swear by our society, hold secret meetings, sit in solemn f judgment over half a dozen aspirants for the same honor, deceive our friends on the other side, spy in the enemy's camp, perhaps, cry.a little because the society we love so well fails to appreciate our ability in speaking pieces, run a candidate because he 's running us, goad our contestants on to the verge of nervous prostration, and so on indefinitely through three desperate feverish months. And then arrives the fateful night. Fortuna turns the wheel, and the society drawing the blank concludes the judges to be old fogies unacquainted with their business and goes off to wax eloquent over chicken salad and the wonders to be accomplished next year. The contest of '97 started in with every show of great earnestness. We all remem- ber that little melee in the drawing-room that eventful noon when we accused each other of being guilty of the crime for which Ananias and Sapphira suffered death, and ugly names and expletives were as thick as peanuts at a circus. Isn't it thrilling! a fair- haired girl remarked from the top of an art bench where she had taken refuge. 4'Isn't it thrilling! Makes me think of those terrible riots you read about I And she swung her feet in ecstacy. The fight over, we began to flaunt our sure things, our winners in the face' of the enemy.

The long victorious side was vanquished and the Wright- onians comforted themselves with the crust that at least they had one Hill which the Philadelphians couldn't surmount. The debate of '97 is memorable in that it proves the efficiency of grasping one or two strong points and hammering on them until they are driven in to stay. The instru- mentalists were both hampered with the mechanism of the Rubenstein Valse Brilliantef' Only when the emotions are untrammeled in expression is playing what it should be. The Philadelphian singer showed the ease in manner and expression which comes with long training. Her voice, however, hardly revealed the purity and fullness of her op- ponent's. The essays were both excellent. A broader theme and a simpler handling, perhaps, gave the point to the Philadelphians. Yet, after all, it is Fortuna. The ora- tions were able efforts. Both were on subjects near to the heart of every American. The recitations were 'again strangely alike, and both were delivered with power and feeling. ' The result of it all was that Philadelphia won everything, with the exception of the recitation. Miss Hill saved Wrightonia from a whitewash. High praise is due all the contestants. They worked hard and faithfully, and each acquitted himself so that none may not say-4'Well done. t O. A. M. CONTEST RECORD.

The E i ' , Qi' benefit arises chiefly from the fact that the society if i ff-, Vp N is divided into five different committees, each of ,Zi Ng Which carries on its own line of Work independent XX f ' X 9 of the Work of any other committee. S f S, X We A great deal of interest was aroused this spring ,Y-nw MMU ' JN eb- by the organization of Walking and bicycle clubs by wi, A the athletic committee. This enthusiastic commit- D' UU' tee, during the fall term, made a special study of tennis and golf, and during the Winter, of all kinds of Winter sports, including Cana- dian games. Another committee Whose Work is very helpful is the current history committee. The discussion of the important topics of the day in such exciting times cannot be other than highly interesting, While with Miss Hartmann to assist in unravelling the intricate meshes of chapters on production and exchange in Walker,s Political Economy the minds of those in the Work cannot help but be broadened and deepened. The travel committee is especially favored by having the assistance of one gifted SAPPHO 32 the llnbeg ' with so rare a power of description as Miss Wilkins. They followed Nansen in his Far- thest North, and made imaginary visits to the Isle of Shoals and to the beautiful Danube. The girls of the music committee have been very faithful in their work, and have accomplished much good. The past year has been spent in the study of the great com- posers and of the opera, especially Der Freischutzf' by Weber, and Oberon, by Wagner. They have also read Music and Morals, an interesting work by an English minister, Haweis, and have furnished the music for the regular Sapphonian programs. Every two weeks, on Friday evening, the girls of the literature committee gather at Miss Colbyis for their regular work, or rather pleasure, for such it always proves to be. They have read from Euripides during the entire year. These Greek plays are very fas- cinating when one has once gained the spirit of them. During the fall term the Alcestis and Medea were read, during the winter term the Bacchanals and Hippolytus, and this term the Electra and Orestres have been their main study. Each' committee gives a program at least once a term. An effort is always put forth to make this stand for their best work. For instance, a ,program was given by the liter- ature committee at which they gave selections from the Bacchanals and Hippolytus in Greek costume. In this Miss Wright as Jason was very good, while Elizabeth Johnston looked like a veritable Greek. The recitatives by Miss Snell and Miss Clark were very much enjoyed by all. But with all her work, Sappho does not neglect her social duties. Each term she gives a reception to the girls of the school. The one given at the beginning of the spring term was a decided success and great credit is due Miss Potter and the music committee for the happy rendering of the Mikado. The audience seemed to enjoy this little comedy . Ube llnbeg 33 Very much, and the Way in which they entered into the spirit of it made it easier for those who took the parts. A most despairing lover was Nanki Poo as he endeavored to ter- minate an unendurable existence. Ko Ko, with his fluttering helplessness as he sought a victim to behead, Was much enjoyed by the audience, but Pooh Bah, with his haughty pride and lofty mien as he sought to withstand the charms of the three little maids from school, was a surprise to all who knew the real character of the actor. In the fall term the girls gave a reception to the Ciceronians, and this spring the boys gave a reception to the girls. The latter Was very much enjoyed by all Who Were there, for the boys proved to be very delightful hosts. The pathetic skill shown by Mr. Myall in arranging his coijfure touched a very tender cord in the heart of his audience. The farce which followed was a very novel one and made one think she never would be able to look sober again. Now, We are sure that When you come to Normal you Will be eager to join Sappho's happy Working band. L. V. T' i , , e r 5, ffxx - I ,I R I :T '--3,-, 1.

In fact, in a great many La .4 Ways this year has been one of the most successful that the society has ever known. The attendance has been very good. Most of the work je' T done has been original. It is in this line of effort that the Ciceronian Society has gained its enviable reputation among both faculty and stu- dents. Many Were the Words of praise from different members of the faculty on the excellence of the debates, papers, and orations given from time to time during the year. While the other societies train men and women to appear before an audience, it is the object of this society to train men to think. For this reason no young man can afford to miss the opportunities which it offers. While the membership this year has been unusu- ally large, We hope that next year even more of the boys will ind it profitable to spend their Friday nights within the Ciceronian Society walls. The Model Senate is still in existence. Some very excellent Work has been done during the year. These are trying times, and much of the excitement afloat in the air has found its Way even into the senate chamber. Much important business has been transacted during the year, but probably none other has been so far reaching in its influ- ence as the act passed February 28, 1898, by a vote of 29 to 18, delaring war against the kingdom of Spain. As a result of this declaration many ofthe senators have resigned and joined the rank and file. n , The senate meeting held on the 28th of February was an open meeting. Many of our Sapphonian friends took advantage of this opportunity to know more about the Model Senate of which they had heard so much, it was noticed that many of the senators could Itbe Ilnbeg CICERQ. 36 'Ciba llnbeg 0 with difficulty be restrained from talking to the galleries during the session. The Model Senate is one of the very best organizations for parliamentary drill, and we hope to see it ever remain a leading feature of our society work. T The spirit of party politics has not run so high this year as it has in years past. We believe this to be a good thing. While it is necessary for the best results to have two parties, and to have some rivalry between the contending factions, yet party spirit has often made enemies. Because you are a Liberal and some one else is a Ciceronian, is no reason that some one else is not just as good a man as you. , As usual the Liberal party succeeded in getting the first election of the year, and held dominion during the entire fall term. But during the winter term the Ciceronians were able to defeat their wily opponents, and have had things pretty Well their ownway ever since. Much of the success of the year, no doubt, may be attributed to the good fortunes of the Ciceronian party. T - As usual two receptions have been given during the year. One in the fall by the Sapphonians, and one in the spring by the Ciceronians. Both were very enjoyable affairs Even if there was nothing else to consider it would pay any one to be a Ciceronian just to be permitted to attend these receptions. These are some of the principal features of the past year's work. There are many other things connected with the history of the past year which every true Ciceronian will remember, but we have not space to mention them here. The following have been the presidents of the year: Fall-Bruce Bright, J. H.Whitten. Karl McMurryg Winter-Wm. Gavins, Chas. Wakelandg Spring-George Wilson, C. Henry Smith. C. vttbe 'Ilnbcg 37 V. W. G. A. Sw-- ING DAVID sang, The Lord gave the Word: the Women that publish the 258. tidings are a great host. From that early time until Mary stood Weep- ? ing at the tomb of her risen Lord and down to the present day have Chris- tian Women gladly published the tidings of the King of Kings. Jr- '55 Rich and varied iields of activity have opened up before the hand- maidens of God who have been eager to serve Him. The Christian young women of the Normal School have gladly availed themselves of the opportunities for service as found in the Young Women's Christian Association. The year 1897-8 has been a very fruitful one. Over one hundred members have given glad and Willing response to the suggestions for Work outlined by the president ofthe organization, Miss Olive L. Dawson. With a heart full of interest for the Work, and With a Willingness to sacrifice any personal wishes for the good of the association, the Y.W.C.A. has been most tortunate in the one who has stood at its head this year. The Weekly prayer-meetings have been very helpful, and many have been greatly strengthened by attending them. Miss Helen Wells, treasurer of the Association, was sent as a delegate to the Student Volunteer Convention, held in Cleveland, Ohio, February 23-27. The spiritual enthusi- asm generated in this unusually large missionary assembly will doubtless never die out from the hearts of those who Were present at its sessions, and those who listened to the 33 'Che llnbeg, burning reports of the convention will always be more loyal to the spreading of Christ's kingdom. . By means of the Bible-study class, the missionary meetings, and the Association number of The Videfte, the young women of the school have received valuable instruc- tion and information. During the winter term a Japanese Tea social provided a most pleasant and profit- able evening. p ln conjunction with the Y.M.C.A., evangelistic meetings were held, in charge of Mr. Sayford. The many prayers offered for these meetings were certainly answered, as rarely has one come among the students who has helped and strengthened them more than did this man. The year-book of the Y.W.C.A. has closed. The only regret that comes to the hearts of the members is that its pages do not bear record of much more done in His name. But trusting that when the Master shall open the book He shall say, 4'She hath done what she could? The earnest desire of all hearts is that the new year may see a deeper consecration of the membership, and a greater Work accomplished for God than the year 1897-8 has seen. L. B. ' ffffzwf few.

As an - organization, how many of its opportunities has Z as 'Eu , I 5 l the Y.M.C.A. embraced during the year? ' i' li, Z 'V Life in the Normal School is one of intense - ..-,, W ,,. g Ayiq r w g f isis activity. In addition to the regular class-room '- V--v ' '.5EggLf ' MV Work, numerous student enterprises make de- . mauds upon the student's time. In the hurry and bustle of this active life, there is the constant danger that the student will neglect the spiritual side in his development. Even the Y.M.C.A. member may become so engrossed in the work of the literary society, the athletic field, the contest, The Viclette, or any or all of a number of enterprises, as to lose sight of the field that the Association opens to him. We are happy to say that during the year now closing, none of these things has moved us. Not that the Association men have given no attention to these other affairs, for quite the reverse is true, but that While patriotically supporting all other enterprises, they have allowed none to impair their usefulness in the Association. Too much praise can not be given this year's officers for their unflagging zeal. In C. Henry Smith and L. I-I. Klaas the Association has had a president and vice-president 40 'Che llnbeg who have been particularly noted for fidelity to duty. These are the men who went as delegates to the summer conference at Geneva last year, and judging the fruits of the conference by these two men, it is not surprising that the Association is making an effort to send tive men to Geneva this year, instead of two, as formerly. However, the eifort for the increased delegation to Geneva is only an illustration of the greater activity of the Association all along the line. In former years our delegations to the state conven- tions have numbered from two to seven men. This year We sent twenty-six men to Decatur. This was the largest delegation sent by a school association in the state, and was only exceeded by one city association, the Chicago Central. The effect upon the Association of having so large a body of men in attendance at the inspiring sessions of the state convention was very marked. Another great gathering that attracted attention in Association circles this year was the quadrennial convention of Student Volunteers, held at Cleveland, Ohio, in Feb- ruary, and attended by over 2,200 delegates. Miss Helen Wells and Mrf A. E. White represented the Normal associations, and brought back interesting reports of the con- vention. One result of this convention was to stimulate the local interest in missionary work. The mission study class is larger than before, and both associations, through their missionary committees, are putting forth efforts for an increased missionary sub- scription this year. Another improvement in Association work is in Bible Study, Where regular system- atic courses have been arranged and pursued through the year. One of the pleasant features of the year was the visit of Mr. Sayford during the early part of the Spring term. Mr. Sayford remained with us nearly a week, giving ad- 'Che llnbeg 41 dresses to the students as a Whole, to the boys separately, and to small groups by appointment. He taught us a higher standard of -living. His Work Was highly appre- ciated, and when he left it was With the best Wishes of the students who heard him While here. We have nearly reached the limit of our space. There is much to be written. The story of this year's Work can never be told, except as it is revealed in the lives of the men Who have been affected by it. But boys, to just the extent that we have been faith- ful to the duties that through the Association our hands have found to do, to just that extent have We set in motion forces, Whose beneiicent effects cannot now be told, because they are not yet complete. f But let us turn from the past to the future. The cabinet for next year was scarcely chosen before it was ruptured by the enlistment in the army of some of the officers. The cabinet now stands: President, White, corresponding secretary, Stine, recording sec- retary, Small, treasurer, Livingston. The record of this year, though good, must be surpassed next year. The Y.M.C.A. is a progressive organization. Its Watchvvord is forward! Its harvest, victory! A. E. W. fl f13vvt ,QQQSQ e '4 awe: h 'VXIX'-'TTT 42 'Ciba Tinoeg l THE FQRTNIQHT Ctee.

During the latter part of the spring term-the sea- son of outdoor sports-it Was discon- tinued, but will doubtless be revived in the fall. Its regular meetings were heldfon Friday evening at the Normal Opera House, but special meetings oc- curred on various afternoons.

Bob Burdette touched a chord of sympathy and endeared him- self once more to a Normal audience. Some of his descriptions were most graphic. John B. DeMotte is a lecturer seemingly Well liked here but in our opinion he has more popu- larity than is entirely due him. His lectures have in them a tinge of the sensational, which detracts from the force of the intensely interesting scientific facts which he brings out. The VVelsh Singers and the Kellogg Company Were novelties, and as such Weill let 'em pass. John B. Gordon lectured on the Last Days of the Confederacy. The old veteran's reminiscences were Well received by the audience. The course cost 251,100 for talent alone, and altogether its cost was about 551,275 It was not entirely a financial success for the reason that our hall is not large enough to support a course of such cost, at thetlow price of admission that ought to be charged. The students this year have stood by their course better than ever, however, and next year Will see another seven-number course of about the same cost.

Ll Among the student enterprises of the school, perhaps no one is now more prosperous than the organization known as the Oratorical Association. But it has not always been so. From year to year, until 1896, the small audiences and scant door receipts almost smothered the enthusiasm of the faithful few who labored to maintain' it. The situation had reached a critical stage, when two events took place, which have placed it on a firm and lasting basis. Mr. Charles Beach came to the rescue with substantial aid. He oitered, annually, a one hundred dollar cash prize, and a gold medal, to the contestant winning the local contest. At about the same time this schooljoined the Inter-State Oratorical League of Normal Schools. The movement was thus placed on a 46 'Ctbe llnbeg . higher plane. A school pride Was created. Inducements Were offered which called to the support of the oratorical .movement the aid and co-operation of the Whole student P3 'Slow butirievifable astpe grave. an old topic, Grant, the Soldier.

X212 The stage presented a cheerful appear- ance. Appropriate scenery was placed as,-Lg? '15 M in the background. In the foreground 5 Were palms and flowers. 'The first speaker, Mr. Elmer F.

In a deep rhythmic tone of voice and impressive 'Ciba 'Ilnbeg 47 manner, he spoke in words of tender praise of the immortal achievements of Grant and vividly portrayed a few of the great battles in which the hero figured.

On Friday evening, May 6, occurred the first Inter-State Oratorical Contest ever held in Normal. Extensive had been the prepa- rations to receive the visiting delegations, and although they numbered somewhere near seventy we Were fully prepared to take charge of them for entertainment. For the first time in the history of the association representatives were here from the faculties of each of the five normal schools repre- sented in the contest. Four of the presi- dents were here, only President Seeley, of Cedar Falls, Iowa, not being present. Kan- sas sent an enthusiastic delegation of about fifty, the majority of Whom were members of the Orpheus and Euridyce clubs, of the Emporia Normal. Missouri sent only two delegates besides the orator. Space will not admit here other than a passing glance at the record of that event- ful first Week in May. At 8:30 p. m., Friday, the contest began. Much fine music Was in- terspersed throughout the program, but, of course, interest did not center on that. Hyatt E Covey the home man opened the battle of the giants with a Well Written 50 'Che llnbegg oration on Alexander Hamilton. Having to open the program, he was necessarily at a tremendous disadvantage on that score, from the start. He held the audience well for awhile, but was suffering from a severe cold and by hesitating therefrom somewhat lost the interest of his hearers. He ranked fifth in the iinal outcome. Arthur M. Nichelson, of Iowa, with 'tThe Common School as a Means to Reform, held the attention of the audience firmly riveted to a Well written, worthy theme. His earnestness and power should have made up somewhat for his rather hollow voice. Ac- cording to many he deserved better in the final. He ranked fourth, with fifth in delivery. Geo. W. Rankin, of Whitewater, Wis., with The Puritans and Puritanismj' showed great potential powers of delivery, but these powers were not sufficiently aroused. His appearance was impressive, his voice deep and rich, but his delivery showed throughout too much sameness, while his climaxes were weak. However, in the minds of a majority of the audience, he seems to have deserved lirst rank in delivery. He received second, which, with second in thought, gave him second final rank. B. P. Taylor, of Kirksville, Mo., with Crators and Oratoryf' delivered with such polish, vigor, and clearness of voice as to win iirst in delivery. However, his style of delivery was too ministerial, and gave evidences of considerable unnaturalness. He ranked third in the final. Allen T. St. Clair, of Emporia, Kas., was the man destined to carry off first honors. His voice was clear, but seemed forced and unnatural. His general pleasing appear- ance, however, won him third place in delivery, which, with a strong lead in thought, gave him first place. Pres. Harry Borgstadt presented the prizes of 350 and 5530, with medals, to Allen T. St. Clair and Geo. W. Rankin, respectively. The contest and all that pertained to it went off without a hitch. Next year the contest will be held at Cedar Falls, Iowa. A. M. Thoroman, of Emporia, Kas., will be president of the league, with A. C. Fuller, of Cedar Falls, Iowa, as secretary-treasurer. Missouri is entitled to the vice-presidency, but as, yet has failed to till the place. P.

Among the numerous exchanges j A received by the managers each month, there are many that are really -' i v worthy to be called high-class literary publications. Some are from col- leges and universities in the east, some from the west. The majority, however, are from normal schoolsg and of the normal school papers, there is not one received with which The Viclette need fear comparison. Many strong normal schools can not support even a poor paper. We pay our editor and business manager each a respectable compensation for their services. There have been issued during the last year two special numbers, aside from the oratorical contest number. for which the management received extra com- pensation from the oratorical league. Besides this, the regular cost of printing upon first+class paper is greatg yet with judicious management the paper can be made to in- crease its hold-over fund each year. These conditions render all the more interesting Mr. Cook's statement that at the time of its establishment, it was his belief that it could not prosper. - Many of the experiences ofthe editor are funny, far more funny are some of the negative blessings the business manager receives from some of those whom he has so far wronged as to notify them that their subscription has long been due and that their sup- plying the deficit will not be taken amiss. Some of these sins of the business manager result in the discomfort of the inoffensive editor, who is liable at any time to be stopped on the street and reminded of the fact that a dun was entirely uncalled for, or that some of The Viclettes did not come last month, and that consequently the slighted subscriber will not pay-and so on acl infinimm. It is a great experience. F. 56 tube 1lnoeg aol- THE IBRARY. late If N ACTIVE and varied life has been led by the library this year. New books ' have been bought, the circulation has been large, and the cataloging has 1: ' J ,r ai? 'QE made great progress. But this is only by the way. First of all, it is again ? established in new quarters, and this time they may be considered per- ' T 1 manent ones. The second floor ofthe handsome new gymnasium building is given up to it, and it now occupies an airy room, forty by ninety feet, with a good north light, and additional windows on the other three side. The books are shelved on steel book stacks of one of the best kinds, and are, as before, accessible to the students. The students of the spring term of 798 have certainly earned the privilege of enjoy- ing these improvements, for they were put to great inconvenience during the month in which the changes were made, and in which the doors were very nearly closed. How could they teach without pictures, or keep up in their studies without reference books, or read without story books and magazines, or debate without original arguments? It was the old story of learning to value things by being deprived of them, and at last the library was appreciated. ' It takes a long time to become thoroughly settled in a new home, and the apartment is still in process of improvement. Please imagine it as it will appear in a very short time after the writing of this article. It will have electric lights, with an ingenious ar- rangement by which each set of shelves can be lighted separately as needed. The sunny OUR NEW LIBRARY ROOM .NI COMMENCEM ENT SPEAKERS.

There will be several new furnishings, including atlas and dictionary rests, map-shelving, work tables, and a children's tableg also a new desk for the librarian, and more tables and chairs for the readers. There will be pictures on the walls, and the new bulletin board will become of greater importance. Library hours have already lengthened, and include Saturday forenoon .Altogether, the inconvenience of following the example of larger institutions, and having the library in a separate building, will be more than offset by the many improvements that accom- pany the change.

We, the class of '98, glorious seniors of l98, must fold our tents like e the Arabs and as silently steal away. And, gentle X friends, we beg of you, do not let your grief over X our early departure blind you to the fact that we will MY' be BV' 'L em-rn have not willingly brought this sad blow upon you. Fain would we linger yet another year to guide your youthful feet along the steep and narrow paths of pedagogy, chemistry, and bookkeeping, but there is a destiny that shapes our ends,', and a relentless finger points us on to glories yet to be achieved. And lest those who follow our illustrious footsteps may feel that in scouring the heights of Junior fame, they have reachel the summit of wisdom, permit us to suggest from our own experience that there are other worlds to conquer. The forty-seventh propo- sition of Euclid and the Nebular hypothesis, we grant, are not to be sneezed at, but if, when you tackle Dr. Harris, you do not make use of some of the emphatic monosyllables of your unsanctiiied vocabulary, we shall really feel quite concerned about your coenes- thesia. To all succeeding generations, we would mildly suggest that between you and us and the grade-book, you might just as well sit forever on the boundary fence of the universe and Whittle pine as to go to the class in school-law, knowing the facts, minus the why's and wherefore's. And, above all things, donlt try to discuss the fundamental principal of causality with a courage born of despair, if you know the tune, but havefor- gotten the words. Another pointer: Perhaps, some day, Mr. Cook may have to go away to discourse to unwary school-ma'ams and school-masters upon the wonders of that penknife of his. He the ilnoeg 07 may really expect to be absent from the next recitation-there are hand-cars, and he may return sooner than you expect him. Therefore, it would be safer to read the lesson over anyway, in case of an emergency. As a class, we would not have you ignorant of the marvelous achievements that have been oursg we feel that the best interests ofthe grand old Normal require that the laurels won by the class of ,QS should be displayed. But we are too modest even to mention the fact that we have so far surpassed other classes as to be permitted to study Dr. Harris instead of Rosencranz, that we have won distinction in the ball games, by our vociferous lungs. As for our proiiciency in apperceptive notions, we have them galore. Just arouse any member of Section A from a sound slumber, and with a very slight stimulus he will deliver an eloquent oration about arrested development, with his eyes but half open. But we are episoding -far be it from us to boast of our attainments. Therefore, permit us to make our final bow, and with blushing countenances, we will depart armed with our coveted sheep-skins. As you strain your eyes to behold the last vestage of our vanishing forms, we hear your unanimous consent: 'tYea, verily, this was a class to be proud of-whence cometh such another?

'Ciba llnoeg Not one of them could tell the truth, So said one lady fair- She'd in a photo gallery worked And to that fact could swear. The talk grew loud, for Rob and Will Still praised that biggest light They told of all the fixtures new, . And for their man would fight. They said that to this artist fine, The best of people went. And all who knew the proper thing Their approbation lent. But all the class would not allow These boys to run the thing, Allusions to their rnanls defects Some folks began to Iiing. One maiden said that she had lived In the adjoining city As long a time as t'other boys, If not, it were a pity. And she had had her photographs As often, surely, taken, And both the artists she had tried, And Will's man had forsaken. The storm raged on and Section A Did a'most miss their dinner: The seniors grave, with cares weighed down, Were beg-inning to grow thinner.

Bassanio, a Normal student, is in love with Portia, Whose father at his death left a de cree somewhat to the following effect: Three caskets must be offered to every suitor for fair Portiajs hand, and of these three must each make solemn choice. One casket contained a set of examination questions in Cmsar, another Cicero, and the third, Vergil. The suitor who answered the questions satisfactorily should have Portia as his reward. Bassanio. fear- ing the examination, makes known his troubles to Antonio, who rents from his enemy. Shylock, a Cmsar pony. that being thebonly pony Shylock has on hand. Antonio agrees to forfeit a pound of his luxuriant foot-ball hair. taken from nearest the brain, it the pony is not returned by a certain day. Bassanio. with the aid of the pony, passes the examination held under the supervision of Miss Threedice, but fails to return the pony in the prescribed time. Shylock is desirous of marrying his rich ward. Jessica. and when she elopes with Antonio. his Wrath moves him to claim the forfeited pound of hair. A1 the greatfoot-ball game of the season he has Antonio arrested and brought before the Duke. Launcelot Gobbo has meanwhile notified Portia. who comes upon the scene of action in disguise. After stating the case clearly in Shy1Ock's favor, she an- nounces that the letter. of the bond must by law be strictly carried out: an X-ray professor is accordingly called in, to whose examination Antonio's head is subjected. Prof. Schweigenhaugenblumenheimerneiderfrankensteinhauser finds that Antonio has no brain: hence the bond is void. 5hylock's property is forfeited because of a law forbidding one to at- tegnpt the destruction of another's happiness. By an accident Portia's identity is discovered and the play ends in the good o way.

Our enterprising student, Mr. Walter Pike, with the assistance ot Miss Blodwen Jones, late of the Welsh prize singers, has organized a concert company for the coming season. Mr. Pike and Miss Jones will render the vocal numbers. They have secured the services of the celebrated piano artist, Mr. Will Peasley.

These gentlemen's undoubted success in the past in securing large audi- ences for Shakesperian lectures procured them this offer. fThis mess of slander was inserted by the Assistant Scribblers and the Oiice Devil, on the sly, too late for us to rectify.

Of these the new students occupy fw,-N ' one, the Seniors another, but by far the most important part consists of 21 The People. All these differ greatly among themselves in lan guage, man- QKS ,4 ' a ners, and customs. The river of knowledge, Very wide and very deep, sepa- ' rates the Juniors from the Seniors. Of all these the new students are the most self-confident, for this reason, because they are farthest distant from the culture and superior wisdom of the Seniors and are next to the Juniors, who dwell across the river of First Experience, and with whom they carry on war every winter term. For this reason the four-year people excel the rest of the Juniors in power, because they contend in almost daily struggle with the classics. One part of these territories which it is said the Juniors hold takes its origin from the river of Self-Esteem. It is restrained by the Faculty, by the spirit of the institution, and by the worthy example of the Seniorsg it reaches even from spelling and elements to psychology. It looks toward the constella- tion of the great Section A. The new students spring from the outermost limits of all creation, they aspire to a seven per cent. They look toward the constellation of the great Section A and a rising reputation. The Seniors reach from the river of Element- ary Knowledge to the heights of Introspection and to that part of Wisdom which is near Perfection. They face between an immediate college career and the life of a peda- gogue.

Our first engagement took place X' K OW Gnd' on the Plains of the Assembly Room. Elements was our objective point. Our troops were scattered and we came off without even the elements of success. We were not U Ilbe ll nbeg 95 discouraged, however, and companies F1 and F2 soon reformed. Just at this time the spelling troops, under Captain Cavins, made a dash. They were armed with the most difficult words in the vocabulary, and captured many prisoners. The imprisonment of some continued throughout the entire campaign, and a jew have not yet freed themselves from that bondage. Company F3 had been called away to reinforce the troops that were gallantly iight- ing Major Colton. Armed with botany can and microscopes, and heedless of the pouring rain, to which they had been hardened while encamped at Mackinaw Dells, they were fiercely fighting for the wild bacteria that they thought grew in the enemy's camp. Our men were in an exceedingly healthy condition, due in a large measure to the excellent training of Captains Lucas and Edwards. As a result, we were victorious, with none killed-only a few wounded. Among the latter were numbered those who were excused from gymnastics. Elated over our recent victory, we determined to attack Fort Grammar. Lieutenant Mavity opened fire with her siege guns. As these were fired by the inductive method, they were aimed at a few individuals first and then swept down our men generally on all sides. Few escaped without bearing evidence of the accuracy of the gunner. The peaceful shades of evening put an end to the terrible iiunking. The soldiers of Regiment F rested for a fortnight. The Faculty now declared an armistice and we agreed to discontinue all operations for the time being. Upon receiving this information, we obtained furloughs, and those who were able went home to visit their friends. ' When the fortnight had expired we hastened to our posts, determined to Whip the Faculty into submission. We found, however, that the Faculty had not been idle during this time, but had been engaged in repairing and replacing siege machinery. Fort Gram- mar was now replaced by the Pedagogical Barracks. Seeing the strength of their enemy, the faculty had entirely refitted old Fort Mathematics with rapid-iire guns. 96 Ebe llnbeg The History breastworks had also been thrown up to our left. Spelling infantry had been drawn up on the opposite side of Misspell River. The enemy also had control of Cheat bridge, which was guarded by Captain Vigilance. All these things had been done after an armistice had been declared. We had beentout-generaled and had no other course but to storm the works. The fight commenced early in the morning with a charge on the Spelling infantry. Cur forces were divided into two divisions. The larger body attacked the enemy in front, crossing Misspell River by ford. The smaller part charged Cheat Bridge. Cap- tain Vigilance was seized and quickly dispatched. After his death his men fled in utter confusion. A shout went up from all the lines. Co. F3, which was guarding the rear, now advanced and we marched triumphantly towards the higher forts. The forts now opened fire on our lines from all sides. Fort Mathematics hurled red hot shots in the shape of cubes, cones, prisms, and pyramids, which were extremely hard to dodge successfully. History redoubt was feebly defendegl by Major-General Mc- Cormick, because he said: This is not my day to iight. We soon captured it and turned the guns on Pedagogical Barracks. We had formed our plans very carefully. Our aim was to overpower Major Holmes with the superior strength of regiment F. We now proceeded to the presentation of a shower of individual notions, using the cannon of History Redoubt as concrete illustrations. Major Holmes and his company proved to be very apt pupils, and were soon prepared to draw their own conclusions. The general notion of defeat was accurately expressed by a hasty retreat. Stores of mythical ammu- nition and fairy guns were left behind. All our forces were now brought to bear upon the remaining stronghold, held by Major-General Felmley with General Hartman second in command. We advanced with colors flying, but soon the guns of Fort Mathematics hurled their deadly tiunks among our ranks at an average speed of 6:40. Our comrades fell on every side, yet we pushed on. Some, terrified by the fearful 'Ciba llnbeg 97 carnage, fied from the field, only to be captured and pressed into service in regiments G and I-I. The geometric guns still continued, deadly effects being produced upon the Decatur Volunteers. Our efforts were finally crowned with success. The major-general was forced to retreat, but not until he had spiked every record. This glorious victory was succeeded by many others. But once during the entire campaign had we sustained great loss. A few daring scouts were ambuscaded by the savage chief, Latin Turtle. He fought in true savage style. The cowardly attack was a general massacre. He obtained many scalps. Company F3 hastened in pursuit, but the enemy escaped. That night he had a regular war dance, and there was great rejoic- ing among the faculty.

After the first day We were put on guard for four hours every day in the class room. We guarded our thoughts and tongues. At first We were fain to dodge the question which came point blank from the teacher. But each hour made us stronger, and after hours and hours of trial and test We became able to stand before the Well-put question, which meant, do or die. The Spell- ing class is recruited mainly from Company G, and as We enter upon our duties there, that fear again overtakes us and We cannot stand before the Words, Which, hurled from the mouth of the teacher, so often hit the mark. When off duty we heard the grave and solemn Seniors speak about the Phils, the Wrights, Sappho, and Cicero, and we wondered What it all meant. Could it be the en- emy? At last We dared to ask an aspiring youth who Was 'lectioneering for an office in Cicero. We learned that they were the four societies of the school. We attended the the llnbeg 101 societies in fear and trembling, and wondered at the wisdom that so was there displayed. As the weeks went by we grew to love the societies and soon we lifted our voices in sonff 6 and debate in the society halls. Many of our young men have held important oiiices in Cicero. Company G is now loyal to its societies, and no member woul-d hesitate to bat- tle for his society. Two more years of test and trial and we go out to battle and to conquer. We will conquer the children's minds and establish provisional governments in our schools. May Section G always remain loyal to our school, our societies and our country. V. G. S.

I am asked to summarize, within ll , Q M if N I y rv - C was B7 93? W rare and most interesting man. I-Ie was born in the town of Thetford, Hgh -Q Vermont, on the 26th day of April, 1827. The son of a farmer, he early became inured to toil. His early education was obtained from the public school and was substantially completed at Dartmouth College, from which he graduated in 1852, sup- porting himself by teaching through the long vacations. Soon after graduation he be- came principal of the academy and high school at Farmington, Mass., where he remained for two years. In 1854 he removed to Peoria, where he took charge of a private school for boys. But he was too full of the spirit of Horace Mann to be contented with the in- adequate provisions for popular education which the city afforded, so he soon saw to it that there should be public schools, and when they opened he became their principal. With such men as he and a few others, it is not surprising that the educational fer- ment soon began to arouse the people of the state. The normal school idea was in the air. A school journal was established, of which he became editor, and it was perhaps one of the most valuable of the agencies which hastened the movement forward. The educational scheme rapidly ripened, the bill was passed by the General Assembly in 1857, and the normal school opened in October of the same year, with Charles E. Hovey as principal. It were long to tell the story of the desperate struggles through which the normal school building was finally completed and the pupils housed out on the prairie two miles as brief a space as possible, some of the leading events in the life of this GEN- CHARLES E- HOVEY 'Ctbe ilnbeg IO7 and a half from the Bloomington court house. The story has been told by General Hovey himself in a history of the Illinois State Normal University, published fifteen years ago. It was a battle royal from start to finish. Over and over again it has been said by those who ought to know, that no one with less than General Hoveyls marvelous persistence, consummate tact and skill, and almost matchless audacity, could have car- ried the measure through. He built without straw a good share of the time, and some- times almost without clay. V But the war came on. He hurried away to the front with the Normal regiment, won his spurs at the battle of The Cache, became a brigadier general, and subsequently a major general: was with Sherman at Vicksburg, and in the stirring events which fol- lowed hard upon that memorable campaign, and was twice wounded at Arkansas Post. Not long after this, for reasons which were in part personal, General Hovey retired from the army, having won a most enviable reputation as a fighter of the first quality. Had he chosen to remain there is no reason to doubt that he would have been recognized every- where as inferior to no officer of his rank in the Western army. ' In 1864- he removed to Washington and engaged in the practice of law. But he did not lose his old enthusiasm for popular education. To him more than to any other one man, is due the creditof reorganizing the system of education of the District of Colum- bia and putting it into its present admirable shape. During all of these years his thought turned with interest to the school which he had established. None of its achievements were indifferent to him. Occasionally he made us a visit. His address at the celebra- tion of the twenty-fifth anniversary was the most notable contribution to that interesting occasion. On the 19th day of last June he returned, broken in health, to join us in cele- brating our fortieth anniversary. He was privileged to attend two or three of the meet- ings, but the great forces of his life were at last broken. Disease contracted in the swamps of Mississippi, had followed him for many years, and was now about to claim its victim. For 100 days he was my guest, and with a very brief exception, was confined 108 the llnbeg to his bed by serious illness. His faithful wife joined him two weeks after his arrival and remained with him until his return to Washington. Throughout the heated days of last summer he endured the pain of a mortal illness without complaint, illustrating anew in the unconquerable courage with which he fought for life, the qualities which had made him so conspicuous in establishing institutions and winning battles. In September he was taken back to Washington, where he lingered until November 17, when he passed away. At his request he was buried in the National Cemetery at Arlington Heights, where the graves of the Union soldiers stretch away in almost countless numbers under the shady trees of the old Lee plantation. He was laid to his final rest with the touching ceremonies of a military funeral. Around him were those whom he had loved, and as the sad notes of the mellow bugle echoed through the forest shades, Charles E. Hovey, the scholar, the teacher, the soldier, the friend of every movement tending to the ameli- oration of the condition of mankind, passed into history. JOHN W. CooK.

REDEDICATED TO Miss BESSIE COWLES BY A D1so1PLE OF ISAAC WALTON. One day, when summer was in her teens- A morn to a poetls Wishing, All tinted in delicate pinks and greens- Miss Bessie and I Went fishing. I in my rough and easy clothes, With my face at sunshine's mercy, She with her hat tipped down on her nose, And her nose tipped-vice versa. I with my rod, my reel and my hooks, And a hamper for luncheon recesses, She with the bait of her saucy looks, And the seine of her dark brown tresses. So We sat down on the sunny dike, Where the White pond-lilies teeterg And I Went to fishing like quaint old Ikeg And she, like Simon Peter. All the noon I lay in the light of her eyes, And dreamily watched and waited. 7 7 7 But the ish were cunning and would not rise- And the baiter alone was baited. And when the time for departure came, The bag was Hat as a flounderg For Bessie had neatly hooked her game- A hundred and fifty pounder. 'Che llnbeg 127 ANSWERS TC CONUNDRUMS. 1.

HOUGI-I the secret has been guarded with great care and painstak- 3 W fd ing, it has been discovered thatvsome of the boys of the school have formed what is known to them as The Tight Wad Society. The meeting to organize was held in the bowling alley of the gym- ! nasium, on the Tth day of January. This place was chosen on G account of its unused character, and because no artificial light was , I necessary, as the orb of night lent her pale beams free of charge. - The members disposed themselves in a free and easy manner on 5. Z the bowling pins, and were soon ready for the work of organiza- tion. As the originator and promoter of the scheme, Mr. Mize acted as temporary chairman. He stated the object of the meeting as follows: 'fBreth- ren Celler Flitazens, I have viewed with consternation the ruthless expenditure of money upon lecture and concert tickets by some of the senior members of this school, and be- lieve some means should be taken to check the spread of this pernicious influence. lt is deemed advisable by some of the wiser and cooler heads to prevent the unmitigated,,un- sophisticated members of this institution from indulging in a similar extravagance. We will proceed to the active work of organization by electing a president. Nominations are now in orderf' Mr. George Pfingsten rose with becoming dignity and gravity from the ten pins upon which he had been gracefully poised, and spoke as follows: Mr. Chair- man and Fellow Tight Wads, them, hem,D I-ah rise to present for your consideration- ah, the name of a gentleman whom all will allow, has-ah the necessary qualifications- .g, a- -' t 'Fl y-f if -Sf -. li l 144 Une ilnbeg ah of a ruling officer for this body Chem, hem.D It will-ah be unnecessary for me--ah to -ah mention more thantwo instances of the gentlemanis economy to convince all of his fitness for the place Chem.D Ali-during the football season he was arranging to visit a lady friend in Galesburg, when, by a happy chance, he heard that the Normal team were to play a game with Knox Chem, hem.D It flashed upon him like an inspiration-ah that here was a chance to combine the tender passion and economy, if he were but a member of the team. Through the influence of friends he secured the position of substitute with the team and he visited his friend without expending-ah one cent of the legal tender of the realm-ah. Not long since he borrowed Ralph Guerberls hand-sled and took two of his lady friends sleigh-riding up and down Ash street. CA murmur of intense enthusiasm rose at this juncturei Solemnly advancing to the center of the room and raising both hands in supplication to the moon, Mr. Piingsten proceeded: Gentlemen, l have the-ah honor of presenting for your admiration the name of Mr. James Young. CLoud applause from the bowling pinsj Mr. Craigmile controlled his emotions long enough to move that the nomi- nations be closed. The motion was seconded, carried, and Mr. Young elected by acclama- tion. With modest blushes mantling his brow, Mr. Young emerged from an obscure corner of the room and carefully seated himself upon the bowling pins vacated by Mr. Mize. Mr. Martin and Mr. Webster were unanimously elected to the respective positions of vice- president and secretary. A committee consisting of Mr. Fairchild, Mr. Burner, Mr. Dillon, and Mr. Rape had been appointed to draft a constitution, but had disagreed except upon one provision, which is given below: No member of this society shall buy flowers or candy for a girl. lf any member is proved guilty of this offense, he shall pay a line of not more than five dollars. Mr. McDonald objected to this strongly, saying: t'This measure seems to me almost Spanish in its tyranny and oppression. I have been keeping up a correspondence with a young lady by means of candy hearts, they are much sweeter missives than anything I EDC HIICQI T45 can write. Then the sentiments on them are always so apt and fitting. I must withdraw from the order if this measure carries. Mr. Sullivan seconded these remarks and the motion carried to consider candy-hearts as billet-clouac. Mr. Doud moved that all letters to girls be sent to girls C.O.D. If this was impos- sible in a case where several boys wrote to one girl, all the letters should go in one envelope, and thus save postage. Mr. Bullock enthusiastically cried, Tl1em's my senti- ments, too.', Mr. Braden rose, and with tears in his voice. implored the president to appoint a guard to protect him for fear some of these Normal girls would rope him in. The pres- ident appointed as evening and night guard, Messrs.Flentje, J. Q. Adams, George Wil- son, Waterman, Frank Hayes, and Luke. The following are to serve only during day functions, as it is contrary to their custom to be absent from their rooms after 7 P. M.: J. P. Stewart, Harmon Waits, Noah Young. Archie Norton, and Branch Taylor. Names of new members were now submitted. 'The application of Mr. Edwards was considered at some length. He was finally refused admittance on the testimony of one of the charter members, who stated that Prof. Edwards had already gone with forty- seven girls, by actual count, and such an example was to be deplored. Mr. Stine, reduced to tears by this ruling, rose to a point of order. At this instant the moon went down and meeting had to adjourn, and the point of order could not receive a hearing. The patient INDEX scribe did dreamg he slept and dreamt, and this is what he dreamed: That Fahnestock had his hair cut. 4 N A 146 Gbe Huber awiZVl7'XRCl7lIf-e U 1.
