Q Q Q THE INDEX of 'OO greets you all with the best and kindest wishes, and trusts that you may find it one of the most pleasing souvenirs of your school life in Normal. As you read over its pages from time to time we hope that you may find each time something which will add to its value for you. lf we have failed to make you feel that the INDEX is indispensable we have failed of accomplishing our purpose. There will be much room for adverse criticism, but we know that the spirit of those who will be readers of this book will prompt them to look also for the good things. Our work has been for you, and we ask that it may be received with the good will which we intended should be a predominating feature of the book. The jokes have been meant as jokes, and if feelings are injured it must be because they have not been received with the spirit which prompted those who collected them. Again extending our best wishes, and thanking you for all assistance rendered us, we place before you the lNoEx of 'Ol THE EDITORS.

Not that these elements were not already in the life of the institution -but they have received a fresh emphasis, the stimulation ofa mighty impulse from a new and original source. There have come. too. Professor Wilkinson. fresh from the practice school of Dr. Rein at Jenaq Mr. Bogardus with his shining morning face and genial pres- ence: Mrs. Gove to beget in us her own rare skill and devotion to song: Miss Blanchard from the University of Michigan with the high ideals and scholarly spirit that for two generations have given tone and purpose to the student life in that great institution. With the new reginzf' has come growth. Growth is not mere increase in bulkg it involves internal change to meet new conditions. ln this sense the growth of an insti- tution is not uniform and continuous. It rather grows like a crustacean that periodically sheds its skin that it may expand in tl1e freedom of a larger life. Whenever an institu- tion comes to regard itself as the best of its kind, and puts in its time compiacentiy viewing its own perfections. growth stops. lt becomes encrusted in its habits of thought and activity. and fails to respond to new demands. Possibly no year in the history of the Normal School has witnessed more radical changes. A new course of study has been adopted. By slow additions of new lines of work the old normal course had swelled, until in some terms students were due in thirty-one regular exercises per week. Little time was left for study or recreation. The student's energies were distracted and dis- sipated by the multiplicity of subjects. In the revised course each student is impera- tively limited to four lines only, and in each of these he will have an exercise every day. The recitation periods have been lengthened twenty per cent. iVith this concentration must come better scholarship. There has come. too, more freedom in the school life.-less pressure. more spon- taneity. Attendance is demanded only in the class-rooms, and at the devotional and general exercises of the noon hour. Spelling has ceased to vex the soul of the student whose sense of uniformity and whose abiding faith in the reign of law are constantly violated by the absurdities of the English tongue. The course has been made flexible ,gx THE PRACTICE SCHOOL Ubc ll nbcg I I to suit the varying needs of all grades of stndents that seek the Xormal School. lYhile it is expected that all will reach substantially the same level of academic and profes- sional knowledge. so far as the school can bring' it to pass, from six to twelve terms may be spent in reaching this level. More classes. smaller classes. and a closer gradation according to ability and preparation will enable all our students to worlc to the best advantage. In the course itself are some sweeping' changes. Natural science at last is treated as a common school study and given a prominent place in the tirst year. Economics and social science receive due recognition. The time devoted to general psychology and pedagogy is reduced one-third. The pedagogy of the branches of study will be taught in the 1'egular classes pursuing' those subjects. It is recognized that the method of a subject is the organization of that subject. It is wasteful and confusing' to attempt one organization in the history class. and another in the class in method. One or the other must dominate and control the thinking and teaching of the young' teacher. In the practice school the environment is to be made more natural. that is. more like the conditions prevailing' in ordinary schools where children study and recite alter- nately in the same room. At least three additional critic teachers will be provided, so that the student-teacher may be almost constantly under the eye of a competent super- visor. The summer school has come. and it has come this time to stay. This great plant worth more than a quarter million of dollars will no longer stand idle in the very months when its services are most imperatively needed by the schools. A term of six weeks with two daily recitations in all the major studies places the opportunities of the Xormal School within the reach of every teacher. It is planned that in ltloj and thereafter two such six-weeks terms shall be offered. The past year has seen a good deal of improvement in our physical conditions. The interior of the practice school has been retinishedz the great hall has been provided I 2 the llnbeg with a new platform, a sloping floor, and opera chairs: the literary societies have spent about six hundred dollars each in flooring and frescoing their spacious halls, in stage decorations and new furnishings. The campus is more beautiful than ever. Many of the disiiguring paths are closed. Flower beds and areas of green have displaced the stretches of cinder next the buildings. Ivies are reaching to drape the bare walls of gymnasium and practice school. The systematic planting of trees and shrubbery has begun to restore these features wherever the original plantings have disappeared. We might promise more good things that are hoped for in the near future. The many un- realized promises of last year's INDEX bid us beware. Yes, the old school will continue to flourish. Its central position in the garden of Illinois, its accessibility, the intellectual community that has grown up all around it to afford comfortable homes for its students and to support and sustain its life, its beautiful surroundings, its stately buildings, its devoted faculty, its host of distinguished alumni, and above all the hundreds of teachers that go forth every year carrying live coals from the altars and daily demonstrating the nobility of the service to which they are called these are the sure guaranties of its perpetuity and renown. 1- -Er-im-Bio-45 'QPLB ' ni? ui '61 NO' Xf ' -3 I Qj!

For two or more years we have labored together, Ofttimes 'neath a cloud although ne'er without hope. To bring the ideal self into the real And cast the old shell which so limits our scope. Our metamorphosis has been much encouraged. Desire to turn back's been diminished by half Through sympathy, cheer, and kind aid from each other. By roses and sunshine bestrewn in our path. Our teachers have faithfully. tenderly labored To model our lives into worthier casts. We ask their forgiveness for all our shortcomings And pray that their efforts may be crowned at last. That when far removed from this loved situation. And scattered abroad by stern duty's commands. Their higher ideals with which ours have blended. We trust, may still lead us toward worthier ends. l think we can say when we're old and gray headed ln traveling back through the lanes of the past, There's one shady nook where we can't help but linger To drink from the brook and to rest on the grass. When laden with burdens of care I imagine That oft will we then to this paradise come. To pluck the forget-me-nots fresh as the morning. The mem'ries of Normal forever in bloom.

We feel that We must make the speech for there are so many of our achievements that would oth- erwise go unrecorded. Then. too, we wish to give our successors some advice, that may enable them to shun pitfalls into which we have unxvarily stepped. In membership our class numbers about sixty-tive. A finer lot of graduates you have never seen,-pardon us for saying' it. We certainly out-strip any of the former classes in many respects. First, we have more married men than any other class has ever had. This adds wisdom and pru- dence to our class. Second, we have more men who 'want to get married. than any Che ilnbcg I7 class of former years, s sto say nothing about the women. ln these two respects at least we know we are paramount. For strength of character our class cannot be eflualed. Our class meetings have proven this. Nevertheless we have a class spirit which the lower sections will do well to note. Think of it! One of the boys went so far as to offer to pitch hay for two days this summer to pay for his class pin. fearing' he might destroy the class unity in not buying' one. Harmony is our watcliword. We spent only two days deciding' where we should have our pictures taken, W'e have heard that former classes have talren a weelf to decide this all-important question. Still. some people declare the world is not growing better. W'e looli back with pride on our school record. We have certainly 'come up through great trihulationf' but our trials have made our success the sweeter. Our struggle for freedom against many limitations has been long' and hard, but for the benelit ol' our friends. the lower sections. we wish to say that the prize is worth the effort. Even oni economics teacher confesses he never saw such a lot of papers or a lot of such papers. as we handed in on examination day. Our worlf in economics has been very successful. YVe are sure of this. When it comes to giving statistics concerning' wheat and other products. we cannot be beaten. Then we have all learneil to manipulate the teaching' process to such a marked degree that some of us actually walk by the tive formal steps. Our power is felt even by the faculty. for our president remarked one day that Section .X ran the school. Hut with all our successes our heads have not been turned. ilve are very modest indeed. But in truth our jesting' covers up a far deeper feeling' than we care to show. -Xl- though we have longed to try our pinions in the wide. wide world. still as the time draws near when we shall leave 0LlI'1l1lIlll lIlIlfl'l'. our joy is mingled with sorrow. Our school life has been so happy. and so many. many sweet memories cling' 'round the dear old school that we almost wish we were not Seniors. The beautiful inlluence of our teachers Ube llnbeg 13 has taken deep root in our hearts, and, we hope. will bear ahundan of which we will take charge. We can never thank enough these noble men and Women who have done so much in shaping' our lives. We stand as a part of tl1e monument they are daily building' for themselves in the lives of their pupils. Full of faults though we are. we hope to do credit to our teachers in tl1e years to come. And now, we give the reins into the hands of our worthy successors of Section C. We wish them all success in their Senior year.

U. there has been. during the past year. much of an unusual nature. Take the .lunior class for instance. Here we have no mediocrity of any descrips tion. The traits. both physical and inental. of the one hundred ten members are best described by the use ot superlatives. The greatest orators, the tinest wits. the deepest thinkers. the most skillful artists. the sweetest singers. the best basket ball players. the fastest runners, the hardest hitters. the worst spellers. the wildest guessers. and the thickest skulls that ever belonged to a single body of students are located in this aggregation. Here we have the manliest men. the most woinanly women. the sweet- est girls and the handsomest couples that ever sat under the campus trees on Sunday afternoon. lt we have curly hair it is so curly that it kinks. lf it be straight it is so straight that one of Mr. Felmley's geometrically straight lines isa cow-path in comparis son. To excel is the whole aim of each and every individual. lf we Hunk, we liunk so hard and so often as to aid in contirming Miss Hartmanns habit of making lJ's1 yet. on the contrary. even Miss Mavity is compelled to put lli's after our names. And what an influence we have had and what a work we have done. lVe have en- abled Mr. Holmes to add some exceedingly original items to his stock of psychological data. ln us Mr. Colton has discovered new specimens for nature study. Mr. Manchess ter now thinks he could tell Caesar. it that great Roman were alive. where to get point- ers as to how his commentaries should be revised to make them a correct exposition of the Latin tongue. And undoubtedly President Tompkins will be compelled to rewrite his Philosophy of Education in view of new light on the subject. It may be prognosti- 30 'Ebe llnbeg cated here that only our natural modesty of which each of us possess a large amount will prevent the next decade from being deluged with all the necessary enlightenment for achieving the millennium. And Where so many are so strong, how is it possible to attempt to give pre-eminence to a few by naming them. To do justice to the Junior class would require a book in ten large volumes bound in sheep, in which would be set forth the thrilling biography of each of us. So if you would know intimately the life history of great people, watch us. But to speak seriously. this Junior class is composed of those whose large hearts and pure ideals have caused them to seek that profession which enables them to attempt to impress those ideals upon that part of the life of the nation with which they may come in contact. To gain the faculty of making themselves felt and win a higher in- spiration they have come to an institution whose foundation principle is sympathy with and duty toward others. Meeting here in goo l comradeship, upon common ground, they have learned to know themselves better. to better appreciate others. and extend to them that charity which Usuffereth long and is kind. and to hope that when, as the newest class of the newest year of the newest century, they go forth into the world they may be able to demonstrate that of great institutions of modern times the greatest is a Nor- mal School, and that of great heads the Normal student has the greatest. sem, fi g w ' - ,f on ' , ,. f y V 'i X - l 1 X 1.

NE day this spring, wearied of the irksome tasks imposed upon us through the balmy spring days I stole out on the campus and threw myself down under a wide-spreading' tree. I had scarcely pulled my hat over my eyes and settled myself for a nap when I heard the softest. sweetest little chirp on a branch above me. In response I heard one even softer and sweeter and raising' my hat I saw two queer little birds. They were perched quite close together and apparently running' over with gossip. So you've come at last. one chirped out, I thought you would never come. VVhat kept you? Why. Fred Niedermeyer had just attempted to run off with one of those sweet Section F girls and Mr.Hoke had his new knife drawn on him and I wanted to see how it would end. Isn't it exasperatingl That Fred Niedermeyer is always hang'- ing around the Section F girls. Why doesn't he stay in his own section? VVell, what have you been up to? Well, I've been watching' Section F too. I don't see how they have lived through the year. Just think of what they have had to stand. Some of them have heard a critic teacher say, 'Make your work Sfftfllfli Push 'emi Push 'emi' and seen that professional smile that accompanies it. every day for two terms. .Inst imagine facing that physical culture teacher and trying' to deiine beauty. Is it any wonder that Miss Davis said. 'I haven't any' when he asked for her deiinition of it. I cannot begin to tell you the half of their troubles. Well. said the other bird, I'm sorry to hear that. but all of the fac- Ubc llnbcg 33 ulty of the I.S.N.U. have decided that of all the sections ever born the noblest. bright- est. swiftest one is that of section F. Even Miss Colby thinks there never were such well behaved girls and the gentlemen far exceed her expectations. Mr, McCormick cannot rind words to express his admiration for them. So after all these wonderful recommendations, I move that we appoint ourselves guardians of this wonderful class. The birds chirped softly as they soared upwards and this is what they said: 0 Section F. 0 Section F. Thy names are writ on high.

It has long been considered an enviable lot to be Up in G, and this sec- tion has but added force to that rule. That we are bound to succeed will be evident when we present some of our members. That we may be swift we have a VValker, and in case of an emerg'ency we can produce a Trotter, to say nothing of a Spann. To show our industry we exhibit our VVaggoner and our Weaver. likewise our Miller and Smith. The ruling attribute of our girls is Sweet. though envious people declare this to be a Gross mistake. That history repeats itself is evident, as we number among our ranks a Morgan, Allen, and Hamilton. Our boys are noted for proving to Professor Felmley's entire satisfaction the supe4 riority of the masculine mind. The quality of our girls was shown to all the school when one of our members walked oif with the Beach prize. Since the day of our entrance we have been looked at askance by the serene. digni- fied Seniors: with jealous aversion by the Juniors: amazed wonder by the members of that superior jwling section, F. Indeed, so great has been the admiration of the last named section, that some of them have joined our ranks. Upon entering school we were first presented, the first day, along with the less for- tunate sections, to our president, and the kindly, genial smile and welcome he gave us Ube 'Ilnbeg 35 has been an inspiration to us throughout our entire year. We were then delivered into the tender Wi keeping' of Professor Felmley, who proceeded to acquaint us with the endearing' epithets that the instructors of the I.S.N.U. use when addressing' the students. Next we paid our respects to Miss Wilkins. and received her approving' stare. Then we were ushered into the august presence of .Professor McCormick. a true son of the Emerald Isle, who forthwith began to pour his wit upon our defenseless heads. Dazed and amazed we then hurried to Miss Mavity. who with a few sensible words re- stored our mental equipose. Twice a week we had the extreme pleasure of spending an hour with Edwards, who took great delight in teaching' us the graceful movements of a grasshopper, under the dignitied appellation of physical culture. The red letter days were those in which one hour was given in listening' to Miss Mil- ner's famous library talks. in which her firstly was invariably the roionl mlilw, lVhen the balmy days of spring' came. we met Professor Colton in the shadow of the pines and learned how to clarify our thoughts with mental egg' shells. Altogether. G has had a most successful and profitable year and will calmly walk in and win all laurels in C next year. It is only our extreme modesty which prevents our telling' you more of our many vir- tues and accomplishments. but assuring' you that you shall hear further from us next year, we make our best bow and bid you on 1'1'L'o1'1' for the nonce. i 1 -l DEDICATED TO SECTION I-I. s1900s In eighteen hundred and ninety nine, To Normal of renown, There came some wondrous students wise.

V 1' 9 9 EVICIQ in all her history has Wrightonia made more progress than during the past year. With a body of enthusiastic and energetic workers at its head the society has moved steadily onward. One of the most marked features of the year has been the large number of original productions. lVrightonia. real- izing that men and women, who can think. and who are not mere imitators, are needed in the world. has made a special effort to secure as many essays, orations. and debates as possible. Some very excellent worlf has been done in this line. The worlz of the society began in the fall term with Charles Whitten as president and Florence Bullock as secretary. Very creditable programs were given throughout the term. The climax of the term's work was the contest. The seven contestants were very wisely chosen. 'We could not have done better. The contest was decided in favor of NVrightonia. However. our rival society was so nobly represented that we feel a double honor in having defeated them. After the contest lVrightonia gave a banquet to her contestants. It was a very enjoyable affair and lasted far into the wee hours of the morning. With Luella Dilley as president and Vernon Sliiles as secretary, the winter term's work was vigorously pursued. Many farces, pautomimes. and other unique numbers were given. One of the most noticeable features of the term was the Shakespearian play. As You Lilce It. All the characters were well selected and each did his utmost to make the play a success. The stage appropriately decorated and the actors in full I Q ,nf MJ, 5. WRIGHTONIAN HALL. Iunc 5. xgoo 42 the Tlnbeg costume made one really believe he was in the forest of Arden. The players succeeded in filling the play with much of that lightness and airiness, which is so characteristic of it and in which so much of its charm lies. We owe much to Mr. Edwards for training our players. Isaac N. Warner has been president and Frances Iliff secretary during this spring term. The society has labored under some ditiiculties this term owing to the fact that the hall has been in the hands of the carpenters. It is of the improvements that we are most anxious to speak. The remodeling of our hall began in the spring vacation and is now nearly completed. The floor has been raised to a height of two feet in the rear of the hall and gradually slopes to the stage. The floor is of hard pine and is highly polished. Only the aisles are to be carpeted. New seats have been purchased for the entire hall. One of the most artistic features of the hall is the beautiful arch over the stage. The round pillars with their capitals and the footlights make our stage very pretty indeed. When the new curtains are placed at the windows, and the stage furnishings are completed our hall will be the pride of all Wrightonians. The best part of it is that all Wrightonians may feel that they have had a part in this work. Subscrip- tions were taken from the members of the society and all responded nobly to the call. Great credit is due those who have been leaders in this movement. Had it not been for their untiring efforts, the work would never have been accomplished. Though their names are known only to a few. still they have their reward in the consciousness of a noble task performed. The present members of Wrightonia have had the privilege of doing a work which shall stand as a monument to them for many years to come. WRIGHTONIAN OFFICERS. Q Q G FALL TERM. Pres. . . Charles W.

President Cook had carefully directed the Work of fitting that part of the building' formerly used by the literary societies and that occu- pied by the science department into suitable society halls. The north end of each hall was partitioned off for a dressing'-room. and is being' fitted into a cosy parlor. Philadelphia again showed wisdom in choosing' one who to the satisfaction of all proved himself just the man to lead and direct us in the beg'inning' term of the years g'reat work. lint the society showed equal judgment in choosing' leaders for the suc- ceeding terms. All ardently and carefully did the work before them. Also to be com- mended is the faithful work of the committees and under officers. The usual annual contest occurred. Each society worked h armoniously, earnestly, and honestly to succeed, if possible, in demonstrating its superiority. Although defeated we were not crushed, and all will look back upon the present years work to many pleasant remembrances. The programs have been good throughout. and in Very few instances indeed has the general program of the evening' been marred by the non-appearance of one who was to take part. Those who have taken part have done credit both to them- selves and the society. Talent in various lines has been developed through the literary work of the society. Debate, oratory, music, and the drama have each come in for an equal share. The audience has been able in a single evening to come into touch with all the varying pleasantries of life. lt has climbed from the fascinating depth of philo- sophical reasoning to the sublime heights of music. PHILADELPHIAN HAH.. lunc 5. xqoo 40 Ebe 'llnbeg During the winter term Wrightonia and Philadelphia each gave a Shakespearian comedy, and notwithstanding the limited stage room and inexperience of the players each may be said to have been a success. as the audiences, we believe, went away sat- isfied. The Merchant of Venice was given by the Philadelphian society on the even- ing of March 113. For some time past many Philadelphians have felt the need of a more convenient and attractive hall and have been trying to find a way to secure the necessary means. But finally an inspiring talk by Mr. McCormick. in which the actual and the ideal con- ditions of the society were both vividly pictured and an earnest appeal to all loyal Philadelphians started in GZIFIJESJE the movement which resulted in giving us our beauti- ful hall. lVe feel indeed grateful to the members of the improvement committee who worked so faithfully and judiciously in performing their duty, and also to many mem- bers of the faculty who gave us timely advice and practical aid. Vtle are also deeply indebted to Mr. Chase for his untiring help and valuable suggestions. It was due to him chiefly that we have the pictures of the ex-presidents arranged in chronological order. This arrangement brings to the mind of any old student a series of many pleas- ant incidents connected with the history of the institution. At our first meeting in the new hall a very fitting dedicatory program was given. lVrightonia courteously dismissed to join us. Mr. McCormick, in his talk, impressively dedicated the hall to truth and concord. lVe sincerely hope and trust that the thought which he so beautifully expressed will become deeply rooted in the Philadelphian society PHILADELPHIAN OFFICERS. 4 Q Q FALL TERM.

But if this scheme had worked, if we had tried another plan, if Miss X had not been suffering from a cold, if Mr. Y had used another argument-if-ifethen we might have been victorious. No figure record, however, can accurately estimate the value of the work done, or the amount of honest effort expended. Weeks before the contest, committees of arrange- ments are appointed, possible contestants are invited to appear on the weekly programs in debate, recitation, or musical numberein fact, the larger part of the work of the soci- eties during the fall term, looks toward the great event of the year. If our house is not divided against itself on election day we are fortunatef After the election follow weeks of training. What matter if some of the contestants fail in geography, and are obliged to drop arithmetic? They have been honored by their society, and they will stand loyal to the last. A few sleepless nights and a dozen headaches, more or less, are not to be mentioned in view of the glory set before them. The great day arrives. A last rehearsal in the hall, a visit to the dressmaker, a trip to the hair-dresser or barber, and other innumerable last things take so much time that there is little left for rest. Supper? Who ever heard of a contestant who was calm enough for that? Besides, it is unhygienic to indulge at such a time. We arrive at the hall early if we wish the confusion of seating to be over before the fourteen martyrs enter. Martyrs! Yes, martyrs. ls not the cause worthy, and have 'Ciba llnbeg 49 tl1ey not determined to die-if die they must-with armor on? Not all can win. some must fall, but if they have their hurts before we honor them, however sorry we may be that the world's estimate of their work is not what we had hoped. Shame upon that man who says that the decision was wrong! Can he sing with the lark? Is he an expert debater? Can he cause the instrument to discourse excellent music? Can he move men to noble deeds. and teach them sublime truths in winning words? As far as the individual is concerned. for him his best is always a victory. To the man himself the decision of the judges should never be disheartening or final: the real contest is with personal limitations. The entrance of the contestants is met with uproarious applause. How can a man who is suffering from heart failure and palsy look so well? III!! they do look. however, and we are proud of them. For four hours we sit and listen. trying to guess what the judges think: then. after a period of breathless anxiety the announcements are read. and the applause for each number deafening. It is over. Has it paid? The real winners and the real losers should answer. for each one knows whether the experience has been a means of g'rowth to him. Next comes the feast to which the general public is not invited, but echoes reach them and mingle in their dreams with the tramp of feet hurrying to catch an early train. The excitement is over only when we reach our far away homes, and the sight of the dear familiar faces reawaken older and stronger interests in comparison to which all else seems trivial.

The work of the Ciceronian society should be recorded so that future generations upon learning' of this mighty work may be inspired to attempt to equal and, if possible, excel it. To attempt to tell all that has been accomplished would be impossible. Cicero is a young' men's society, organized for the purpose of training' its members in the usage of parliamentary law, to express themselves clearly and forcibly in debate, and to cultivate the art of oratory, Nearly every member. during' the past year. has provided himself with a copy of 'Roberts' Rules of Order. and any member who is not able to conduct a meeting' of the society and decide correctly upon the most intricate questions of parlia- mentary law immediately considers himself disgraced. We foster the spirit of debate. So long' as a debater does not mangle his opponent beyond recognition we do not care if he twists the buttons off his coat, teirs his vest pockets out. and stands with but one foot on the floor. Here the young' man who has any aspirations towards becoming' an 01'ator iincls a place where he receives the heartiest of welcomes. This is only a part of the work of the society. Every third Friday evening' the reg'- ular work consists of the discussion and passage of bills. For this purpose the society has organized the Model Senate of the United States. Here a1'e forever settled the questions of most vital importance to our national welfare, and bills are passed which become the laws of our natioz. During' the past year we have forever settled the Philippine. the Porto Rico tariff. and the Mormon questions: we have passed bills I.. If-x ui: . 1 I rwifwr CICERO. 54 Che 1I noeg and appropriated money for increasing' the navy and the standing' army, building' the Nicaragua canal, laying' the Pacilic cable, and have equipped and sent to Africa an army to assist the Boers. From the name some of the less thoughtful might be led to suppose that these meetings were conducted after the manner of the meetings of the senate of the United States. Exactly the opposite is the case, with the exception that we have no lobbyists and no corrupt members. The senate of the United States has shown remarkable wisdom in sanctioning' nearly everything' we have done and many times it has withheld its decision on questions upon which it was in doubt until it could receive instructions from us. The elections are conducted under the Australian ballot system, and in this connec- tion our political parties. the Liberal and Ciceronian, deserve mention. During' this year the Ciceronians have elected their entire ticket at each election. In the spring term the Liberal party ceased to exist and a new party, the Students' was formed. As has been the custom Cicero was g'iven a reception by Sappho during' the fall term. A very pleasant evening' was spent. as Sappho never. never fails to please. In the win- ter term Sappho was invited to attend a meeting' of the model senate where every effort was made to impress upon the ladies the tact that we are oratorsf' The crowning' event ofthe season took place about the middle of the spring' term when the compliment of Sappho was returned. Nothing was left undone which would tend toward making' the occasion one long' to be remembered. Every member of Sappho declared that the Field of tl1e Cloth of Gold was nothing in comparison to it. May Cicero ever prosper and may its members say in the future, as We have said in the past, and as we now say, Din rim! View-o. ' EDC ll nbcg 55 SAPPHO. 'F 9 9 5 HE Sapphonian society is a society for the women of the school. This society is composed of a number of committees. Every girl that belongs to Sapplio is a member of one or more of the committees. This means that every mem- ber is an active worlierg that each Sapphonian chooses the line of worlr in which she is interested. At present there are five committees regularly at worlr.-the Literature. Music. Travel, Current History and Inquiry committees. They talie turns in giving programs before the general meeting' of the society. So much for the nature and organization of Sappho. The various committees have found their work profitable and enjoyable the past year. The Literature Committee has met at the home of Miss Colby on alternate Friday evenings. It has spent the year reading and discussing Butcher and Lang's translation of the Odyssey. The girls have greatly enjoyed the work. and feel that their time has been profitably spent. During the fall and winter terms the Music Committee studied the characteristics ol' Scandinavian and Slavonic music. The relief of the countries. the history and customs of the people were studied. The committee saw how these things were embodied in the music of the representative composers. The Slavonic composers studied about were Chopin and Paderewski. In the spring' term national songs and hymns were studied to see what national traits and influences were embodied in them. The work ofthe Current History Committee has been very beneficial. The tendency of the women ofthe school is to neglect the reading of the current events. This neglect .Sig new ,- ,ll -f gl- Cb ax. GC- -ll. 'lk I SAPPHO. .,+'., 's 1 'Gbe llnoeg 57 has been counteracted by the work of this committee. Its members have met each week at the home of Miss Hartmann to read and discuss the current events. The Inquiry Committee has spent its time in investigating questions that are of interest to woman. After the members had informed themselves upon the subject under consideration, an informal discussion was engaged in. and after that a debate in which each chose the side she could most heartily support. Part of the time was spent in parliamentary drill. The members of the Travel Committee began the school year with the study ot Japan. They gave a program describing the home life, customs, religion and government, of the Japanese people. The members were in Japanese costume. and after the program served tea in true Japanese style. This committee gave no program during the winter term. At the regular meetings Miss Wilkins read some interesting sketches of travel. A pro- gram on the Philippine Islands was given in the spring term: this was also given in costume. For the rest of the term at the weekly meetings the girls will read aloud sketches describing life in Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii. Samoa and South Africa. inter- spersed with sketches of travel by Miss Wilkins. As usual, Sappho received Cicero this year. It is hoped and expected by all loyal Sapphonians that next year will see this society doing even better work than it has done in the past. ffjiszifx ri pkg. ' fi p ffeii l f?

Mr. Whitten's composition was superh. taultless. and his thought made a permanent iinpres- 1 sion on those who have heard and read his production. Each judge gave him loo, His deliyery was con- vincing and showed earnestness of purpose. This oration had already won in the lnter-Society Contest and the audience was so fayorahly ini! pressed with it that a large number thought Mr. lYhitten's oration would he a three time winner at Oshkosh. llolrert F. Mcvlvllertel' Chose for his theme. Lafayette Lihe1'ty's War Hero. His oration lacked unity in several places. He delivered his oration in a good manner. At the opening, he was self-concious.

Nellie YanHool: recited an extract from Kipling s The 'Light that Failed. Her inipersonations of the ditlerent characters was splendid. She was unfortunate in her choice and with a better selection we think the judges would have given her a higher ranking. Muriel Squire gave The C'ourt Scene from the Merchant of Venice. Considering' the selection. her reading' was admirable. At times she failed to get the interpretation. Dorothea Dixon recited King llohert of Sicily. by Longfel- loxv. Miss Dixon has a very pleasing voice. and the ahle manner in which she recited almost won her tirst place.

The wittiest speech was made by Profes- sor Hill, of the K.S.N. A performance was then given by the Oshkosh school, consisting of songs and dances representative of various nations, taken from one of F. Hopkinson Smiths sketches. The program was interspersed with good music from the ladies' quartet of the I.S.N.U., and the school orchestra of Oshkosh. After this entertainment we repaired to the gymnasium. where a reception was held, and where, in a side room, refreshments were served. Here we first heard the Minnesingers of Iowa. We arrived at our lodgings late that night, but would not have known it was late had we not looked at our watches, for we were royally entertained. The next day some of us visited the school, and in the afternoon visited a base ball game between the Oshkosh and Milwaukee teams. The game was a fairly good one, and was won by Oshkosh with a fair margin. The contest was held in the opera house and was greeted by a crowded house. There were fifteen hundred people present. but they made noise enough for fifteen thousand. Maroon. the Wisconsin state color. was every- where in evidence. The other states did not make much noise, but they tried to. Every- thing was done decently and in order. and when the orators spoke there was no inter- ruption. All the oratious were good. but none were so good to us as our Mr. Whitten's. While the grades were being made out we were favored with some fine music from local talent and the Minnesingers of Iowa. Then red lights were thrown on the stage, and the I.S.N.U. male quartet sang Illinois The decisions were then rendered, giving Wisconsin first and Missouri second place. Of course we felt badly, but our confidence in our orator was 11ot shaken in the least. We were sorry that the judges did not see it as we did. The lake trip home was delightful. As we saw the lights of Milwaukee slowly fade away. heard the soft lapping of the water on the sides of the steamer, saw the glorious moon shedding its radiant halfness Knot fullnessl over the lake, and above all thought that we were going home. we burst into song. At first the songs were the popular ones Ube llnoeg 05 ofthe day, but later they changed to the older ballads, and finally, when the lights of Milwaukee were about to disappear we were so moved by the absolute perfectness of the night that we sang as at a Methodist camp-meeting, and then went to bed. Some of us found Chicago so delightful that seven were not present when the train left. and came later. They did not seem at all penitent when they arrived, either. They seemed as composed about it as was our boy Freddy, who was so afraid of sea-sickness on the homeward trip that he peacefully slumbered through it all with a copy of Sleep. Little Baby of Mine wrapped about his equatorial region. lint enough, lest I tire you. ll'e all enjoyed it immensely, and would be glad of another trip just like it-did I say all? Yes, all-even Freddy. LSince writing the above it has been found that a mistake was made in the nnal rank- ing of contestants at the inter-state contest. and that Mr. Whitten should have been given second place instead of third.

They prepared themselves well by hard work. and received important coaching from Professors Felmley and Manchestenwho took the negative against them on the society programs. A com- mittee of the Faculty in cooperation with the managing committee arranged with generous propriety for the reception and entertainment ot the XVisconsin debaters and delegates. They were entertained in the best Normal homes, and on Friday evening were given a cordial and a most pleasant reception in the gymnasium. Professor Briggs and Miss Parmelee rep- resented the Oshkosh faculty. The defeat was accepted in good part, but no steps were taken to arrange for another debate, so it is not known whether or not the affair will become an annual one. School enthusiasm arose as the day for the debate approached, and our debaters felt that they must maintain the standard set, and the reputation won last year. Some yells were worked up but they were in slight propriety as there was no answering slogan from the necessarily small Oshkosh delegation, to balance. Gur association with the Gshkosh school during the past two years has been of help to us in many ways, and it has like- wise been decidedly pleasant. We hope the pleasures and benetits have been recip- rocal. The move to continue this relation properly falls to Oshkosh. If sucha move is made it will no doubt be promptly accepted here.

F the Young' Mens Christian Association has not helped our men to be more manly and to have a higher ideal in life to strive for, it has not accomplished the end to which its efforts have been directed. If it has. it is only working' out the principle of brotherly love upon which it is founded. That organization is best titted to live which is the most useful to men. NVhen it ceases to be a factor in ennobling' char- acter. it is best that it sink from view. The Y.M.C.A. exists in our colleges and normal schools today because a few young men realized to a greater extent than anyone previously had done that the lives of men in college need the Christian influence constantly around them to help develop the full rounded character. It was proposed to help reach this end in a society where the minds of the men would sometimes be drawn from the regular work of the school and lifted up to a communion with God. To make our work most effective requires two tliing's to be kept in view: to be willing' to be helped, and to want to help others. The first is best accomplished by doing' the last. Those who have received the most good from our asso- ciation are the ones who have been most active in doing' what they could to help their fellow-students to a life of truer Christian manhood. The wise man said: Cast thy bread upon the waters, for thou shalt find it after many days. The Y.M.C.A. in a school such as ours meets some of the same dilticulties with which other societies have to contend, one of which is a lack of continuity in our students' at- u- -i , ova -cj. 6 2 ' A fVx 'i .

A. 9 9 3' 5' NOTHER fruitful year for the Young' lVomen's Christian Association has drawn to a close. ln looking back over the years work there has been an advancement all along' the line, yet we would fain be far in advance of our present attainment. The aim of every department has been to exalt Jesus Christ in the heart of eve1'y young' woman in school. To this end Bible study has been made the pivotal point of the association work. Through the year about one hundred young' women have studied the bible in a very personal way. The classes were in the form of small circles which met Weekly in the students' rooms in various parts ot Normal and were led by earliest young' women. Two lines of work have been pursued-fundamental principles of Chris- tian living' and the women of the Bible. Miss Anna Broadhead has had charge of this work most of the year. The missionary work has not been neglected but on the contrary more than usual interest has been taken in it. Fifteen young' women have been enrolled in the study classes during' the year. About STU has been pledged by the two associations for the support of student Work in India. The association felt the need of more social life among the students and with a view to giving' this a home was rented during' the winter term at Mrs. J. S. Balls. Several very enjoyable socials were held there. The union socials were held in the gymnasium. Miss Florence Bullock has been the leader of this department. Y. W. C. A 74. 'Ciba llnbeg The devotional meetings have been held every Friday evening in the university. They have been very helpful and a means of strength to the many who have attended them. The week of prayer was observed by holding noon-day prayer meetings in room 17. The iinancial department under the guidance of Miss Luella Dilley believed it to be a just command to do all things decently and in order. The plan of systematic giving was introduced and by this means money to carry on the work was easily raised. The president, Miss lda Pearson, was sent to the summer conference at Geneva. The state conference at Champaign was attended by Miss Pearl Prickett, Miss Stella Wade and the president. The spiritual power brought from these meetings was a great inspira- tion to the association. lt is hoped that the new president, Miss Grace Allen, and at least two other workers will be able to go to Geneva this year. The Illinois girls expect much from this conference this year. for it may bring about the beginning of a state organiza- tion. The American committee has been able to send a special secretary, Miss Louise Shields, to us for a short visit. There is much yet to be written about the past year's work of this organization. But the complete story can never be told except as it is revealed in the lives of the hundreds of young women who have been influenced by it. Let us now turn from the past to the future. The new cabinet consists of Misses Allen, Prickett, Merker, Anna Smith, Gvillo, Serf, Simison, Haslam and Wells. The earnest desire of those who leave the work this year is that the new year may see a greater Work done for God than the past year has seen. May the grand motto never be forgotten- Not by might nor by power but by my spirit saith the Lord of Hosts. 'Che llnbcg 75 THE BOYS' GLEE CLUB 1' 5 U' 5- HE boys of the l.S.N.U. had no glee club during' the fall term. The teacher of music ran a club but it soon became evident that democracy would eventually triumph. and so. as soon as the winter term opened. the boys were again per- mitted to organize and run a club under the carefully prepared constitution of last year. The otticers elected were as follows: Business manager, Chester Marquis: assistant manager, Fred Niedermeyer: secretary, George Wallace: treasurer. W. D. Krug: director, Henry F. Stout, and pianist, Miss Elizabeth Mavity. The membership was limited to twenty and there has been no lack of applications to till any vacancy which might occur. The boys have appeared on various public oc- casions and have acquitted themselves very creditably. In fact from the demonstrations of the audiences it has been evident that this club was the most popular musical organi- zation in school. And well they might be, for they have worked hard and faithfully. 'We have been helped very materially by our pianist, who. although one of our hardest working teachers. has gladly given uns two afternoons of her valuable time each week. It is the wish of the writer that the I.S.N.U. tilee Club shall always exist and improve for there always room for improvement. fl RN Edmunds. Skilcx Ortman. Stine Marquis. VVaggunc-r. Balm.

Gilkerwn BOYS' GLEE CLUB. the 1l nbeg 77 THE LECTURE COURSE. 9597 HIS year the lecture board tried a new experiment. a ten numbered course. and it has proven as successful as any of the preceding courses. Une factor that contributed greatly to its success was the remodeled hall. During' the summer and fall the Hoor was raised to a sloping' positiong nice. easy opera chairs were introduced: and the hall was made as cheerful and comfortable as possible for the audiences that were to follow. The talent consisted of: XVilliam French. Temple Quartet, Chicago Symphony Or- chestra, Garrett P. Serviss. Bertha Kuntz Baker, Thomas Concert Company. George Kennan, Oratorical Contest. Redpath Grand Concert Company. and Edward Everett Hale. Many of these merit special mention: Mr. French on the subject. YYit and XYisdom ofthe Crayon. showed himself not only a skillful artist. producing' the most beautiful sketches on the canvas in the twinkling of an eye. but also a very pleasing' and instruct- ive lecturer. , Mrs. Bakers rendition of Cyrano de Bergerac. though rather diiticult at times to follow, was tine. Her manner was simple and unaffected: the thought. ennobling' and inspiring. The Redpath Grand Concert Company was as usual on a very high plane. The contralto, Mary Louise Clary. and the bass. Carl E. Duft. seemed to enjoy a slight favoritism with the audience, although the whole company was highly appreciated by lovers of music. 78 'Che 'H nbeg Mr. Hale, the author of A Man Without a Country, was listened to with attention on the subject of Reminiscences of Emerson, Holmes, Lowell and Longfellow. The reminiscences related in a plain way, were quite interesting. He made it so realistic and life-like that when we went away we felt if we had spent a couple of hours with the great poets themselves. But these notes would be incomplete without a description of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. The Symphony Orchestra is the best thing it has ever been the opportunity of the writer to hear. The Normal course has never had a better musical number. Such harmony in such diversity. It was simply grand. For two hours the orchestra dis- coursed beautiful music to the eager souls of the audience, and when the audience arose and went away they felt nearer their Maker than before. In the execution of this course the board was confronted from the outset by many unexpected and perplexing problems. Its patronage was decreased from three sources: First, from Bloomington by the starting of a new course in that city: second, from the citizens of Normal because many tickets had been sold here by the Bloomington courses before it was possible to sell any tickets whatever for our course: third, from the Uni- versity by the decrease in attendance. Still through the perseverance, snap and vim of the board as a whole the problem has been solved and the course is a success. For, with such men and women as Messrs. Whitten, Skiles and Rape, and Misses Dilley and Pitts at the heads of committees, how could an organization be other than successful? The course for next year is in good hands, and will undoubtedly be as strong as ever.. The officers for the coming year are: President, Vernon Skiles: vice-president, Florence Pitts: secretary, Jessie Wells: treasurer, Arthur Rape. xy IAA, 1 :,v,2,:rf::.

'Fifi HE Girls' Glee Club was organized early in the fall term. The club has studied during the year. various two. three and four-part glees. and has appeared sev- eral times in public. The work in such an organization cultivates a love for part-singing that is very helpful musically. The practice is also a source of recreation as well as pront, making a pleasant change from the general school work. The club oiiicers consist of president and director, treasurer, librarian. A small term tax is levied on the members. so the club has been selfesupporting. We must mention the very excellent spirit that has characterized the work through- out the year. The relations between director and club have been of a very happy nature. Where this spirit does not prevail, very little pleasure comes from the work. There have been some very excellent voices in the club. The girls' quartet may be said to have had its origin in the glee club, as three of its members were former members of the club. The quartet was sent by the school to the inter-state oratorical contest at Oshkosh, Wis., and sang on one of the entertainment pro- grams. They were accorded an enthusiastic encore. The value of organizations like the glee club cannot be overestimated and should be looked upon as a necessary part of the school life. All that have good ability as singers should respond generously with the best that they can give and help to make the musical organizations in the school strong. The work is necessarily rather slow, but with en- thusiasm and good material much can be done in a year.

The paper has grown in popu- larity from year to year, and has now become an essential element of the school, setting forth its institutional life and spirit. It supports every worthy student enterprise. It binds all I.S.N.U. students into one great family. Starting with sixteen pages, it has doubled its size, and now has nearly 1,000 subscribers, representing not only almost every state in the union, but several foreign countries as well. The efforts of the past year have been toward maintaining The l'1'!II'fff S former high standard and adding any new features of merit. The editorials have been confined to topics closely connected with the school. The editorial staff has been enlarged. We are pleased to name among the writers of our leading articles, Loring A. Chase, Fred D. Barber, ex-President Dr. Richard Edwards, Prof. Herbert J. Barton, Prof. John J. Wilkinson, Mr. Ethan Colton, ex-President Dr. E. C. Hewett and President Arnold Tompkins. Con- tributions have also been furnished by several others, from both faculty and students, among whom are: Misses Colby, Wilkins, Blanchard, Lucas, Milner, Criswell. and Mrs. Gove: and Misses Pitts, Mann. Iliff, Putnam and Losch: Messrs. Holmes, Felmley, Man- chester, Cavins. Bogardus. Stout. Fairchild, Whitten and Hayward. The regular departments have endeavored to give full and accurate news each month. Original poetry and current jokes have found recognition in our columns. There have been five special numbers issued during the year: The Inter-Society Contest number, the Association number, the Short Story number, the Oshkosh-Normal Debate number, and Commencement number. Considering the decrease in school attendance, the busi- ness manager, Henry F. Stout, and the editor-in-chief, J. Carl Stine, and his able corps of assistants are to be congratulated for maintaining such a creditable school organ. mf ff . 7 L wr ' '11 -if , Fairchild. Stout. Rape. Perry. Vnvins. Wright. Bzlltz.

If he has any potential qualities this game will cer- tainly reveal them. The game demands all that the player is capable of contributing. Each power acquired reveals another back of it. Many of the powers thus acquired are of the kind that are absolutely necessary to the teacher. The teacher must have self-control. The first requisite for basket hall playing is self-control. No player can be successful until he has acquired this power. He must learn to pay no attention to the knocks and bumps which he receives. they must have no effect on his temper. for if he becomes angry he breaks the unity of his team and then it is only an accident if the game is not lost. Control in the presence of an audience must be learned before one can become an expert or even a sure player. There is nothing which is more likely to cause a person to lose control of himself than the consciousness of responsibility for his school which rests upon him. Suppose he should fail in his effort to caroum or should fail to throw a foul goal. or what if his opponent. more skilled than he, should evade his guarding and should throw a goal for the opposing team, what then? But by practice he overcomes these fears and acquires that complete self-control so essential to the teacher. The game demands rapid thinking. correct judging, and speedy and skillful adjust- ing to new situations which in this game follow in quick succession. The player ac- quires a habit of concentrating all of his faculties upon the thing at hand. To a student or teacher this habit is of inestimable value. His powers of reasoning and thinking are proportional to his powers of concentration. If basket ball did nothing else, this of itself would make it a valuable game to the Normal student.

It is a noticeable fact that we have fewer students in school this year who have the habit of carrying one shoulder higher than the other or who walk with a sidewise movement than we had last year, and we believe it is because a greater proportion of them play basket ball. The basket ball season this year has been successful and gratifying. The new stu- dents caught the spirit of the game early in the fall term and played in the open air until the gymnasium field had lost some of its smothering summer heat. Various sectional teams were organized and basket ball soon promised to become the game of the year. Only two society games were played during the year: one by the men and the other by the women. The desire for society games soon gave way to the desire to play games with out-of-town teams. The men organized their team first. They selected men who without exception had played last year. Few changes were made during the season. Exceptional team work characterized every game. Each man seemed to feel the inner unity of the team and he played to win, not to throw goals. It made no difference to him who threw the goal so long as one of his team did it. Their record is a brilliant one. They have won every game that they have played. Their record is as follows. llate.

They won their first game from the Blooming- ton High School with a score of 9 to 3. Their second and last game they won from the Greer College women of Hoopeston, Illinois. Their team work in this game, with one or two exceptions. was very pleasing indeed. They succeeded in making the score 13 to 1 in Normals favor. Wie hope that next year a still greater number of our students will play basket ball and we see no reason why next year's teams cannot be as strong, if not stronger, than the teams have been this year. 1111111111Wallzlu-,ce11Lc1'.
