HENRY MQCORINHCK, A.M., Pl1.D. Jmclax U15 HENRY MCCORMICK on the extreme noithw est coast of Ireland, the subiect of this sketch was born Feblualy 5, 1831. The legion was altogether treelessg peat the universal fuel, potatoes the chief crop, but the soil was ill-adapted to agriculture, the people depending mainly upon the herring which swarm the bays that indent the coast. When after the famine of 1846, the stream of emigration to America had risen to a flood, the elder lXIcCormick determined to try his fortunes in the New NVorld. In 1850 he settled in central Ohio. Three years later, Henry, then a boy of sixteen, followed him. 'Ihe voyage by sail lasted some six weeks. NVhen Ohio was reached he learned that his father had succumbed to a fatal illness a month before. Altho stranded and desolate in a strange land, he was not the lad to lose heart. He soon drifted to southern Wiscolisiii where he spent several years farming in summer, attending school in winter in district school or village academy. In 1859 he taught his first school. He received thirteen dollars per month and boarded 'roundf' The salary seems small but the board was doubtless tl1e best the district afforded. VVhile the absence of a fixed abode brought some inconvenience to the young teacher, the system was likely to develop a mutual understanding between parents and teacher and the cordial cooperation whose absence is much bewailed in modern pedagogy. For six years he taught rural schools, mostly in Boone County, Illinois. Meanwhile he had married him a wife, who had, it seems, more confidence in her husband's future than he possessed himself. His success in teaching united with her argu- ments to turn him towards the state normal school. He arrived in Normal in 1865. The records of the next th1'ee years reveal his in- dustry and thorouess. Upon his graduation in 1868 he was elected the lirst superintendent of the public school of Normal. The next year at the age of thirty-two he was appointed professor of geography and began his long CEITQGI' as a teacher in the Illinois State Normal University. It must not be supposed that his teach- ing was confined to this branch. Either because of the extension of knowledge, or because of the indolence of the younger generation of N the village of Belmullet, a community of some 700 inhabitants, . . . F' . .' , ' .

Not so with the stalwarts of the generation passing. Soon history, both sacred and profane, was formally added to his department, but he taught arith- metic, algebra, geometry, reading, drawing, mental and moral phil- osophy, and spelling. There is a tradition that vocal music also was at times in his program Besides teaching this varied line he took up a regular course of non-resident work in the Wfesleyan University extending thru a long term of years, and obtained in succession the degrees of A.M. and Ph.D. The degree of LL.D. has since been conferred upon him by the same institution. Since 1901 Professor Mctlormick has confined his instruction to history and civics, and has given his work a wider range than in former years. He has become especially interested in the history of our own state, is an active memberof the State Historical Society, and is the author of a bill soon to become a law, requiring all teach- ers to be examined in the history of Illinois. Mr. McCormick has taught in the State Normal School for thirty- six years. two years longer than any other of the one hundred forty- six men and women whose names appear on the roll of its faculty. YVith his undimmed powers and abounding good health we may ex- pect etficient service for years to come. In 1892 he was made vice- presidentg since that date a large share of the internal adminis- 1JI'EltlOll of the school has fallen to him. For many years he was a most active worker in the institute field, his happy combination of clearness and vigor with a flavor of native wit proving highly effective and popular. His evening lec- tures and formal addresses always wrought out with the utmost iidel- ity, have uniformly attracted large audiences. His published works include two manuals for the teaching of geography which have had a wide sale. Mr. Mctlormick is a prime favorite with the students of the Normal School. It is not because he fails to expose hazy thinking, or evasiveness, or talking against time, or any of that brood of sham- ming substitutes for upright. down1'ight, ha1'd work, which even Normal students sometimes shelter.

It is notorious that all teachers tell sto- ries and sometimes repeat them, but his anecdotes mellow with age and when told for the hundredth time attain a ripeness of tlavor which the sour vintagcs of the twentieth century can never rival.

HEWETT was born in East Douglas. lVorcester County, Massachusetts. November 1. 1828. At that time the st-ate of Massachusetts, and especially the central portion of it, was inhabited mainly by the direct descendants of the early English settlers. The character of these early immigrants will be easily re- called. They were lovers of liberty. They had left their native land, England, in order to enjoy freedom. They yearned for this especially in respect to their religious beliefs and practices. They were called puritans on accounts of their high ideals of life, and of the energy with which they insisted upon illustrating those ideals in everyday experience. Among them the feeling of responsibility was strong They found in the Christian religion the principles by which they felt constrained to be guided in their relations toward God and toward their fellowmen. and they displayed a mighty energy in the application of these principles to their own conduct as well as to the conduct- of others. They were certainly a noble race. That they fell into some errors no one denies. But everything con- sidered, in respect to all that constitutes a genuine manhood and womanhood. their standing is very high. Like most of the puritan families at that time Mr. Hewettls father and mother were not corrupted by excessive wealth. They earned their livelihood by honest labor. And so we iind that this child was subject to the same conditions. He soon learned that he must earn his own living, and so we are told that at the age of thir- teen he began to work at the trade of shoe-maker, and thus to do for himself. Hut the puritans believe in culture as well as in labor, -Il and so this boy was sent to the common schools, where he received a primary education. But his schooling was not confined to this. After a time he became a student in the local academy. And whe11 he became twenty-one years of age he engaged in the work of teach' ing. It is said that his compensation was thirteen dollars per month. This looks to us like a small amount, but I have no doubt that to his friends and neighbors it seemed reasonable. From the iirst he was very successful in the work of teaching, and soon acquired an envia- ble reputation. As a consequence, it is said that he never thereafter lf1'.wmll 1-f1li,'frw, lull Il My fiom -Il1n.xM JAY ALLEN.

S applied for a school, but always found himself sought for by those who wished good teaching. But he began to feel the need of a fuller preparation for the teacheris work. And so after continuing for two terms in teaching, he resolved to enter the Bridgewater State Normal School. At that time that insitution was in charge of Nicholas Tillinghast, a most worthy man and elclicient teacher. Mr. Hewett entered that school on the 26th of March. 1851. I was at that time an assistant teacher there, and the examination of the candidates for admission was in part assigned to me. It is hardly necessary to say that he passed the examination. His preparation had been thoro. His work in that school was eminently satisfactory to his instructors and to the worthy principal. Mr. Tillinghast was not long in discerning the qualities of the new student. He took careful note of the young manls thoroness, and of his simple desire to blind the truth, so that when Mr. Hewett came to leave the school he went forth with the advantage which an excellent reputation gave him. In fact, the coming together of these two men was the meeting of two puritans. Their ideals were much the same. They both viewed life from the same uncompromising standpoint. On leaving the Normal School the young man was employed as an assistant in the high school at Pittsfield, in Massachusetts. But he remained there only one year. Mr. Tillinghast had kept in mind his excellent qualifications, and when the service of an assistant was needed in the Normal School, the position was offered to the young man from I'ittsfield. Here he labored four years. But the compensation paid at that time to assistants in that school was low. And so at the end of his four years he became principal of a grammar school in the city of Worcester. Hen. Hovey, the lirst principal of the State Normal School of Illinois, was at that time in need of help. In some way the qualifi- cations of Mr. Ilewett became known here and a position was offered him, he entering upon his duties in 1858. .He had the distinction of being connected with this institution for a longer pe1'iod than any other teacher, except Dr. lllctlormick and Dr. .Iohn IV. Cook, of DeKalb. When I was elected principal of the State Normal in 1862, I was pleased to find that my old friend, Mr. Hewett, was one of the instructors. .During my connection with the school I felt that he was contributing very largely to the success of our work. Those were strenuous days for this institution. The people of Illinois were giving much more thought to the subject of the Civil War than they 'il WI' '!7'll1f'!l fIIN l.'fflffof-mf. -Vl2nNoN Bnvisn.

Therefore it required much effort to keep up the reputation of the school and also to make it worthy of a high reputation. One of the Worthy facts in the history of that institu- tion during those trying days was that members of the faculty, both men and women. worked in the spirit of hearty union. Une of the expedients to which we resorted for enlarging the intluence of the school and for increasing its numbers, was the holding of a summer school during t-he long vacation period. This enterprise was under- taken heartily and without compensation by members of the faculty, and was carried on with great eiliciency. No one was more helpful in this enterprise than was Prof. Ilewett. Une of the results was that owing to the rather impaired state of his health he felt willing to enter upon a change of occupation for a year, and for the year be- ginning in September, 1868, he was granted a leave of absence. But at the end of the year he could not resist his desire to be once more in his old work. The ell'ect of the etl'orts of those years was very manifest. The total attendance of the normal department for the year 1862 was only 152, but for the year ending June, 1871, the at- tendance was 464. There was also a corresponding increase in the attendance in the model school. Dr. Hewett held the position of Professor of History and Geog- raphy in the State Normal University until January, 1876, when he became president of the same institution. This ollice he held until 1890. During these years the institution continued to grow in num- bers and inlluence, and his work as President was acceptable to the Board of Education and to the friends of the school. His standing as an educator was recognized also by other institutions of learning. In the year 1878 the degree of Doctor of Laws was conferred upon him by Shurtleli' College. He had received the degree of A.lNl. from the old Pniyersity of Uhieago in 1863. He is the author of a num- ber of books, intended for the use of schools, including a work on Pedagogy and Psychology, and a series of Arithmetics. He was at one time president of the State Teachers' Association of Illinois, and has also held oltice in the National Educational Association. For some years previous to his death he was one of the editors of tl1e School and Home Education.77 In August, 1857, Dr. Hewett was joined in marriage with Miss Angeline N. Benton, of Lee County, Illinois. Two children were born of this union, Mrs. li.. H.. Reeder, in the year 1860, and Paul, in the year 1870. Mrs. Reeder is the wife of Prof. K. R.

She has been to him a I'aithI'ul help- nieet. Especially rluring the latter ilays ot' his life has she minis- tered to him with care anfl sympathy. Dr. Ilewett passed away on Friday, March 231, 1905. Among the characteristics of Ur. Ilewett as a teacher may be inentioneml his honest and straiglitierwaril thoroness. llflembers of his classes soon learned that nothing but absolute truth, so far as they were able to master it, would be saitisfactory to him. Une result of this was that the stuilents themselves became truthseekers. This eontributeml largely to the great success which these stiulents have hail as teachers in tlilierent parts ol' the country. Another characteristic was Ilr. Ilewettls geniality of rlisposition. I think as a rule the stuilents were Very strongly ilrawn to him Hf course, this greatlyincreasefl his inlluence over them. Ilis teaching took better hohl on their natures on this account. Still another peculiar- ity was the thoroness with which he himself perl'ormefl his work. He always came to his classes well preparefl. Ile not only umler- stoocl the facts anil principles mlirectly taught, but also pereeiveil many of the relations of these to other facts anwl principles. It ought to be atlcleil that Dr. Ilewett was entloweil with an abunrlam-e of common sense. Ile was not umluly earrieil away with new the- ories and schemes. Yet he was willing to give respectful hearing to every new inlea presented. So that he was not only an enthusias- tic and energetic teacher, but he was also a very sate one. In 2111 important sense, I think I may say that in his cleath a great anil good man has mleparte4l. Ile has mafle a noble contribution to the cause of eclucation in the I'nite4l States. Isle has ilone his share to- ward the perfecting of a worthy civilization in this great republic. Dr. Hewett was a learler among men Not that he was clothetl with outward authority. not so much that he was talkefl about in the newspapers and otherwise. but because oi' the genuine, ellieient work for good which he was able to accomplish. In this respect it seems to me we may say that he was a prince among men.

And the influence that he wielded was a very positive one. His appeals to the intellectual powers of his pupils were clear, and the influence that he wielded upon their moral and spiritual purposes was equally decisive.

In order to acconiplish good in this world we need two things. W'e need opportunity, and we need the mental and nioral preparation rightly to use the opportunity. Our departed brother had the opportunity, and he also had acquired the requisite preparation for it. RICHARD EDWARDS. QW ,.,X.71.:,7.6.5X,.5.Xf..,,... '21 lllllfll' of ,lIf1If1y.w'ff. -Llcim Bicows.

Colleges and universities have existed for ages, but normal schools belong to modern times. It was during the last century that the idea of schools for the special preparation of teachers for their work, sp1'ang up in this country. The iirst school with this name, and for this purpose, on the western continent was opened just sixty- five years ago on July 3, 1839, in the historic village of Lexington, Massachusetts. ln the beginning it had three young women for its pupils and one old gentleman, a Unitarian clergyman, for its faculty It began in the face of much opposition. Many good and learned men believed it was not needed. They said, If one knows a thing he can teach it. There is no need of special schools to prepare him to do it. Wlieii we think of the present number of normal schools in America, and of the great work that they have done, it seems almost incredible that such an opinion should have been almost universally prevalent but little more than half a century ago. And let us remem- ber that our institution was established less than twenty years after that lirst one at Lexington, and wl1ile this opinion of normal school work of which I have spoken was still strong in the minds of a great many intelligent people. I shall try in this article to set forth only at few of the leading facts in the history of our institution. Space will allow nothing '7 H,lllII'1l mln Illlirllf Illlfllllllff.,l'iili,ll'lQ l3m'vKWAI,'l'IClt. i,Sl1l1'llIll'f,l H'fllfugjfIlf flu' lfllfw lllillys !I'lllAI'll oil14'rsfr'ul'1' llllillllll' llIll1I,4'NllfNl'.H +SI,THANNA I5l,n'1cnxs'1'A1-'ia 13 'F I6 1 A 1-1 Q1 v-4 F ,..1 M. v--1 r A v-1 'C s-4 6 inore.

And, in the session of 1856-7, the meas- te XUTICPISCWIUKHL I'Il- a prolonged struggle. The bill creating the institution Wasfsignecl by Gov. Bissell, February 18, 1857. No money was appropriated from the state treasury, but the in- terest on the College and Seminary Fund, or a part of it, was set apart for the current expenses of the school. This amounted to something more than 214111000 a year, and was aniply suilieient for its DR.-RICHARD EDWARDS, PRESIDENT 1862-1876. purpose for more than ten years. The question has often arisen why the name Normal University was chosen, rather than Normal School. There seems to have been two very good reasons. One was that it H llylm, hm rlwyf-f'?f1'l1f'sfw'f1:'wf'.s, ll'I'Ill on Vlffflillllff, fluff fffmrylfl 151' l'UIll'HII'l.Hjj lwffflr lflwlf ffmllylll qf'171'11f1lfj.H--lllli.

Tlrsillili ,f ff like Dndlegx would occasion less opposition to appropriate the income of the Col- lege and Seminary Fund to a university than to a normal school. Another. and perhaps stronger reason, was that it wasthen expected that other departments would be added to the Normal, making it a real State University. This idea was not given up until the State University was founded at Urbana. It was expected that grounds, buildings, and furnishings would be supplied by the town that secured the location of the institution. Several towns entered into the contest, making bids for the same. The two principal competitors were Bloomington and Peoria. I have not space to give an account of the struggle. The story is told in a full and interesting way in the book to which I have referred. Bloomington citizens pledged about 850,000 to the enterprise, and the county of McLean gave an equal sum to be derived from the sale of swamp landsn donated by the county. Abraham Lincoln drew up a bond which was signed by several prominent citizens of Bloom- ington pledging large sums to secure the amounts subscribed. Un the 7th of May, 1857, the site was lixed where the I'niversity now stands. lVithout question the man who did most to secure this re- sult was .Iesse W. Fell, the founder of the town of Normal. For an account of the way in which he did this, I refer to the book already mentioned. About the same time. llharles IC. Hovey, of Peoria, was selected to be the principal of the new institution, plans were drawn for the buildingg contracts were let: and the corner stone was laid with ap- propriate ceremonies on September QU, 1857. Meanwhile, tempor- ary quarters for the school had been secured in Bloomington in Major's Hall, at the southwest corner of Front and l'rairie streets. The building is still standing: but in 1857 it had th1'ee stories in- stead of two, as it now has. The two upper stories were occupied by the school for three years, while the lower story was used as a groce1'y. Here, on October 5, 1857, the teaching work of the I'ni- versity began, with Charles E. Hovey and Ira Moore as teachers and twenty-nine young men and women as pupils. The number of pupils during the first year increased to 127. The regular work of the school has continued uninterruptedly from that day to this, now almost lifty years. But the young institu- tion passed thru most trying times in its infant daysg and more than once its devoted friends had serious doubts of its continued Hhifllllllilfff will: l'l'llII'fllIlf.fl'I'l ll'lll'l'1' ilu' lfrook and !'fl'CI' nu'wf. il3lCssllQ B.xX'1'EH.

Funds could not be collected, and, after a few months, work on the building was entirely suspended and the prospect for its resumption was gloomy indeed. How, and by whom, the difficulties were finally overcome, is an exciting story which I have no space to repeat. It will be found vividly told in the book to which I have referred. Suilice it to say here. that work on the building was resumed in 1859, and the structure was so near completion in the summer of 18150 that the graduating exercises of the first class were held in the room now occupied as the general assembly room. This was a great day. The class was composed of six young men and four young women. Enoch A. Hrastman, now of Decatur, gave the firstoration. The theme was HHorace lllanu,7' if I remember rightly. Following the exercises, a collation, in Normal Hall, was given by the ladies of Bloomington-there was no village of Normal then. The colla- tion was followed by speeches, and the day ended in a blaze of glory? In October. 1858, I became a member of the faculty. The first Saturday after my arrival in Bloomington I visited Normal, or the Junction,'7 as it was then called. The walls of the building had been carried up nearly to the top of the basement story, and there they had been standing for months. Much of the lumber and other materi-al was stored in a shanty just east of the building, and there an old lflnglishman lived who had charge of it. The campus was an old corn field, with stalks still standing upon it, but not a tree nor a hush Fell Avenue, or rather, the ditch beside it, marked the eastern limit of the old farmg and all the land between that and the Central Railroad was unbroken prairie, altho streets had been laid out. and some of the noble trees now standing 011 Ash Street, North Street, and Broadway had been set out, little shrubs, perhaps two inches in diameter. Mr. l1'ell's family were living in the house they occupied so long on the p1'esent site of Mr. Levi Dillon's house. There were two or three small houses across the Central Railroad from Mr I+'ell's, two or three near the present residence of Mrs. John H. Dodge. and perhaps a half dozen more within the present limits of Normal. That was all. In September, 1860, the school was moved from Major7s Hall to the new building, altho it was not completed until the following .N'fu' ll'l'Nlll'N, rrlul XIII' lI'IIlII1l'l'.N ll'!IIIj fu' fr nol by lll'l'N1l,t'.lllIxI.XIlll BOLIQY.

Acconimodatiims for students were scarceg and many of them, young women included, lived in .Hlooniington and walked back and forth every day. The new building was formally dedicated in February,1861, Gov. Hit-lil' Yates making the principal speech. In the spring of 1861 the school contained about 150 pupils in the normal department: the faculty consisted of Charles E. Hovey, Ira W s. Ill-Z. JUIIX NV. COMIC,1'RlCSlIJlCN'l' 1800-1800. Moore, Edwin U. llewett, Leander H. Potter, J. A. Sewall,Julian Bryant, Miss Frances A. Peterson,and perhaps one or two others doing special work. All seemed to be going on verv prosperously. But in April, the war 1-loud, which had so long been gathering broke. A few from the Normal, including Joseph G. Howell, who was then principal of the Model School, answered .President Lincoln's li1'stCall for 75,000 men. And, duringthe remainder of the term. al- most everv young man in the school engaged in daily drill.

Just after the second commencement came the disaster of Bull Run, quick- ly followed by the presidentls call for 300,000 men. This took away all the male members of the faculty buttwo, and nearly all the young men in the institution. Hovey was made colonel of the Thirty-third Illinois Infantry, and most of the young men joined that regiment, which was often called the Normal Regiinentfl 'His enlistment in the army linally severed Hovey7s connection with the institution. He is deserving of great credit for his services in the establishing and conducting the allairs of the institution thru a most trying period. A man of inflexible will, tireless en- ergy, persistence, and audacious courage, it is doubtful if the history of the Normal University would not have been quite dilierent had he not been at the head during the linancial troubles ot which I have spoken. In fact, I think the1'e is some reason to doubt Whether there would have been any history to write. Charles Hovey was a native of Vermont, a graduate of Dartmouth College, a teacher in Massachusetts, and the head of the schools in Peoria, Ill., before he became principal of the Normal University. After the war he nev- er engaged again actively in educational work. But it is very clear that no work of his life ever engaged his deepest interest and ener- gy like the establishing and di1'ecting of the Normal University in its early days. This is the one achievement recorded on his monu- ment, as Iread it last summer in Arlington Cemetery, WVashington, D. C. I Mr. Hovey had been principal of the school for four years, and, for the next year after his resignation, Perkins Bass, Esq., of Chi- cago, a member of the board, was acting-principal. During this year the aH'airs of the school went forward in a quiet and fairly pros- perous way. There were few young men among the students, and the whole number was much smaller than the year before. But as the year passed on the ranks gradually lilled up. In March of 1862, a man came to Normal who was destined to have much todo with its affairs in the years to come. This was Mr. Ricliard Edwards, who had been principal of the City Normal School in St. Louis. VVhen the war broke out, in that city aliairs were very much demoralized, and he came to Normal and Hlled a subordinate place for the re- mainder of the school year. At the close of the year the board chose him to be the head of the institution, which office he continued to I lilllllld' lin' srrfnls I IIHI no!grwll.7'-Alzl+1I.I,A lVl. lillcovli.

There had been what was called a Model Schoolll connected with the institution almost from its beginning. In old Major's Hall a school of small children had been taught with rare success by Miss Mary M. Brooks, a teacher of extraordina.1'y skill and sweetness of temper. During the iirst year at Nornial. this school had been con- tinued and a class of somewhat older pupils added. But thus far there had been no attempt to teach pupils of a high school grade. DR. ARNOLD TOMPKINS, PRESIDENT 1899. However, soon after Mr. Edwards came, such a grade Was established and put in charge of Mr. C. F. Childs. a teacher of rare ability whom Mr. Edwards had induced to come from St. Louis to take the place.

After two or three years St. Louis recalled Mr. Childs to that city, and Mr. Wlilliam L. Pillsbury, a recent graduate of Harvard, was put in charge and held the position for several years. Under his management the school gained wonderfully in power and reputa- tion, and came to be regarded highly by the authorities of some of our best eastern colleges. After Mr. Pillsbury, the school was in the hands of several remarkably able teachers, among them Dr, Edmund J. James, now at the head of Northwestern University. The reputation achieved by the high school did much for the fame of Normal University at home and abroad. Early in the administration of Dr. Edwards, Mr. Thomas Metcalf came to us, also from St. Louis, and he remained in the faculty, doing most efficient work, for thirty-two years. Also about the same time came Mr. Albert Stetson, who remained here twenty-tive years. It is, perhaps, worthy of note that Mr. Ira Moore, Dr. Edwards Mr. Metcalf, Mr.Stetson, and the writer had all been mem- bers ofthe State Normal School at Bridgewater, Massachusetts,as stu- dents, and all but one had assisted in the instruction at that school. But when Dr. Edwards took charge of the University, all was not smooth sailing by any means. The darkest daysof the Civil War were in 1862, and our national affairs continued dark for some time thereafter. Besides, serious financial troubles for the University had again arisen. The State Legislature had appropriated some time before, rl465,000, which it was supposed would fully clear oil' the debts that had accumulated from the diiiicult circumstances un- der which the building had been erected But it was found that this was quite insuilicient. Claims to the amount of some 3435.000 still remained. The holders of some of these claims had obtained judgment in the courts. And some of our enemies were heard to boast that the days of the Normal were numbered and nearly iinished. We kept up a brave front, but wished things were dillerent. .How these iinancial troubles were iinally settled, I shall not attempt to tell, but refer any who are curious about the settlement of these, or the former troubles, to the book that I have mentioned several times already. Meanwhile, the school was gaining in power and prestige. In its faculty were several men and women who were putting into the institution the best that was in them. They were young and full of H llrllll will:l1i.wlonym'lnrll1 flI'lIlil'N f'o11Iwfl. A l,1'll,Il'FIRIAN l5l..u'KI:l'ItN. 1irfjllfl.lh1'.1i.sl1ingf.

In addition to heavy Work in the class rooms-many of our classes numbered more than lifty-we we1'e going here and there all over the state, talking at teachers, meetings and instructing at teachers' institutes. VVe made many, perhaps most, of our journeys by night, that we might not trespass on the working hours of daylight. Special summer sessions for teachers were held here in t-he Normal building in 1863, 1864, 1867, 1868, 1869, 1870, 1871, and 1872. These meetings were generally several days or Weeks in duration. Most of the work was done by members of the faculty, for which I do not remember that we received a cent of extra pay. When the Normal University began its operation, the principal and teachers determined to avoid all high-sounding titles. So, in the catalogs and in personal address, it was simply Principal Hovey,77 or Mix So-and-Sof' But in 1866 the board decreed that the head of the institution should be known as president, and the principal male teachers as t'professors,'7 so we had to submit to the enforced dignity as gracefully as we might. At the close of President Edwards' administration, the present writer was made president and continued to hold that otlice till June, 1800. Of these fourteen years, but little need be said. They were years of peace, prosperity, and progress. It has been well said that years of peace and quiet afford but little material for history. To be sure, we had our biennial struggle to secure our appropriations from the liegislature. But we were never defeated, and I am sure we had little cause of complaint against the honorable gentlemen on the whole. In June, 1890, John IV. Cook was chosen president and held the oliice nine years. Mr. Hook graduated with the class of 18653 and he is the only alumnus of the institution who has held the oiiice of president. President Uook was succeeded by Dr. Arnold Tomp- kins, who held the otiice but one year, and was succeeded by David Felmley, the p1'esent incumbent. Two noteworthy things occurred during the administration of President Cook. Une was the erection of two fine buildings-one for the Practice School and one for the Gymnasium. The other was the abolition of the High School, which, in my opinion, was the greatest mistake the man- agers of the Normal University ever made. I can think of many 7'f1r'w I'1l!II4'N rr lfnn' in lllf' fill' ffl' I'l'l'l'fl,JlIllIl, H'ln'n ln' is :iff fmmls mul l'l,l1lll'N,,l M- 1 inovicn Ifkomcv.

Zh reasons why the High School should have been retained, but I can- not think of one why it should have been abolished. The Illinois State Normal University has always stood for hard, faithful work, and for thoroness in what it undertook. Not many institutions of its size have had so few cases of severe discip- line. And the almost total absence of 'tcollege pranksw has been noted from the very beginning. Its students have been fond enough of fun, but they have generally been able to distinguish between fun and foolishness. And they have generally been too busy to waste t-ime in senseless sport. ' From the lirst year of the institution, the two great literary societies have been active and llourishing. They have had many contests, some of which were acrimonious, and more were conducted in perfect good humor. From the first, I'resident Hovey laid down the rule that students should be drawn into the societies alternately from a list of names alphabetically arranged. Students so drawn must join the society to which they were drawn, or neither. This wise rule has prevented the scrambling and electioneering for new members which in many institutions causes much disturbance. To many students, the work done in the societies has been nearly or quite as valuable as the work done in the class room. In the early years of the school, the teachers, except the president, took active part in the aifairs of the societies on exactly the same terms as the students. When we count the roll of students who have gone out from this institution and have filled, and are now iilling, prominent and im- portant positions in the worldg when we remember that students who have gone from this Normal to join other institutions have, al- most without exception, taken high or advanced standing: when we remember the very small number of our students who have failed in their life work, it affords ample ground for profound satisfaction and congratnlation to all who have taken an active part in its allairs.

The executive of the central region of the continent of North America had heard that l some relic hunters in excavating, some miles south of Lake Michigan, had struck what was supposed to be a city buried under much dirt and debris. Great interest centered in these excavations because their site Was, as far as could be deter- mined, very near the ancient town of Normal and it was thought that these buried buildings might contain some writings which would tell something of that ancient center of learning and of early education in this continent and the World. On account of the im- portance of the discovered antiquities and the universal interest centered in them the govermnent took up the work of excavating. The most noted specialists were hired to interpret t-he relics. In a short time it was considered evident that not only did these give news of the educational center. but that it was that center itself. The energy of research was doubled and redoubled, and people from all parts of the world came in order that they might inspect the ruins and perchance take with them some of the educational princi- ples so long lost and so highly valued in tradition. One day as the debris was being carried from among the roots of what in antiquity must have been an immense tree, a box was dis- covered hugged between the roots. The crowd of observers im- mediately gathered around and waited in breathless anxiety while a specialist and his assistants stepped up and prepared to open the box. It was of cherry and in one corner of the lid were carved the letters I. S. N. U., 1905. Every face in that large crowd expressed wonder at the perfect state of this casing. The curiosity about its cause abated only when on finding the name Sticel7 in a second corner, the specialist announced that its perfect preservation was due to the work of genius such as could be found only in an- tiquity. The specialist turned again to the box and with one hand pushed back the lid,-when forth came the musty odor of the dead. This then was a 4-oiim. The men in the audience removed their hats and several knelt while the specialist slowly and carefully removed the winding sheet and exposed to the public eye a ligure some three feet in length at- tired in a light gray waist and dark blue skirt and with a face that UNM' is Il l'r:sff-4'l11'gL'g'rl, IIIIIVA'-I'.lff'1, l4l5.sf4', f.lIisN1E UIAIQK. .I llrimfl 'ffll'l'f'l'ff.f,l'fl'lNll1'NN lmrsl. fElJNA C.XRHHI,l,. 51 The il ri li li. 9 H131 V5 it Q Xi ll-lj..Q.flg5 Q1 5 lmore the expression of one long since beyond hope. Cut from paper and fastened to the old fashioned attire of this nuunniy were the letters, SENIOR. DUMMY, 1905. Olasped in the llowing sleeve of the poor unfortunate was a parchment which the specialist now eagerly seized in search of explanation. Un the paroliment were the words: I am the Senior Dummy: I lived in nineteen tiveg My eareer began with a hall game, And ended by Irurial alive. I gallantly lwore for the Seniors Their eolors, lwlue and gray, Ilut they Ullllltlllit watch the luall BIIIKJII less look out for two.

Then I was fought and lmled o'er And many times changed hands, Hut lastly again I was taken Into the ranks of the .Iunior Ilands. Then there ensued a funeral And with mueh pomp and splendor, l was lmried alone forever Without a Senior defender. The specialist adjusted his glasses and again examined the parchment before giving his verdict to the world. Then he raised his head and spoke to the ignorant multitude and said unto them that apparently there lived in this region the tril1es,tl1e Juniors c'l,c'1l,'n fo ffrw, lflv' lo l4'fl1'1l.'I-IIIKUZIIIIA t'.x5Il'.

These tribes held sacred the basket-ball, and held fes- tivals called basket-ball games in which honor was done to their idol. There seems to have been one tribe which was superior to the other, and as a token of this supremacy buried the life-like image ofithe lesser tribe. Thus then, we niust follow up the history of this tribe called Juniors 706 if We would get the highest type of ancient civilization and education. Thereupon the group dispersed and hunted diligently among the halls and ancient chambers for records of the Juniors 19416. Only one nian remained at the spot where the Senior niunnny was unrolled, and as he sat down wearily said to himself, 'tTruly there were giants in those daysil' Years rolled on and the education of the world got a new start fron: the annals of the Junior Class of 19116. And so at each new annal the world wondered and when all was collected, interpreted, and collated, there was a lore of archives priceless in their worth. The world 1'olled on with a new vigor, a new educational life and all thru the achievements of the Jun- iors, 1906. ULARA COITH.

Soon after entering the country, they began the exploitation of the land. Toward this end, they have labored with great courage and enterpriseg but they have met with many reverses.

They know practically nothing of the world outside of their home village. Mr. Hardcastle is contented with being just as he is but his wife and daughter want to imitate the city folks as well as their scanty knowl- edge of them will permit. Mrs. Hardcastle is foolishly fond of Tony Lumpkin, her son by a former marriage, and wishes to bring about his engagement with her niece Miss Neville, who without the knowl- edge of her aunt has become engaged to Mr. Hastings, a free and easy young fellow who always says the right thing at the right time. Tony is a wild and wayward young scapegrace who is constantly play- ing tricks on some one. Mr. Hardcastle urges Kate to marry young Marlow, a son of his old friend, Sir Uharles Marlow. He describes young Marlow to his daughter as young and handsome but very ref served. Hastings and lVlarlow seeking the Hardcastle home, lose their way and upon inquiring at an inn, learn from Tony, who happens to be there, that they are several miles from their destination but that they may stay for the night at an inn to which he directs them but which in reality is the very place they are seeking. They are heartily welcomed there but make many ludicrous blunders due to the fact that they think Hardcastle is the landlord of an inn. Mr. Hardcastle in- terprets their action as impudence but bears it silently. Hastings? mistake is corrected by Constance Neville but Marlow is left in norance for fear of his being further embarrassed for he is already llustrated in the anticipation of his introduction to Miss Hardcastle. He appears ridiculously shy, uneasy, and ill-at-ease in his 'first con- versation with Miss Ilardcastle and scarcely looks her straight in the face. 4' it 4' Hardcastle speaks to his daughter of the unheard of N1fwl rwfrr' ilu' 1I'flff.s !l'lll'Il I IIVIN ull 1olZ'l1o1I'r1.i'-li. liIQI,I,lC Ultoolis.

Miss Hardcastle discovers that Marlow has mistaken her in her plain dress for a bar-maid, so llustrated was he in his lirst encounter. He falls in love with this bar-maid and becomes demonstrative of his aliection. After he leaves, her father enters and says he saw and heard the whole per- formance and has another proof of Marlow's impudence. Hastings and Miss Neville learn that Old Marlow is coming and for fear of their plans being discovered devise an immediate elope- ment. 'f' 4' 5' Marlow, ordered otf the place, discovers his mistake. In the meantime, Diggory, the servant, delivers a letter to Tony which the latter hands to his mother to open and read. In it she learns of the intended elopement. She plans to leave at once with Miss Neville and to employ Tony as driver. Hastings thinks he has been deceived but Tony explains and tells Hastings to meet him two hours hence in the garden. 5' 5' Marlow says he has been deceived but the matter is satisfactorily explained. tt 4' 'f' Young Marlow comes to Hardcastle, who is talking to Old Marlow, to ask pardon for his strange conduct.

Tony has been playing anotherof his jokes and has carted his mother and Miss Neville unsuspecting mile after mile through pond, brake, and Slough, and all the time within live miles of home. tif course Mrs. Hardcastle is terribly frightened but her proximity to home being made known to her, she changes from fear to anger. 4' Q' Hastings asks Constance to elope now but she refuses to go with- out her mother's consent. 4' 4' t Miss Hardcastle plans an inter- view with Marlow while Sir Charles and Mr. Hardcastle are behind the screen. He again demonstrates his love only to learn from Mr. Hfardcastle that she is his daughter. 'Q 4' ' Hastings comes to apologize for attempting to elope with Constance. Sir Charles ex- tols Hastings, many good qualities so highly that Mr. and Mrs. Hard- castle give their consent. Marlow, reinstated in Mr. Hardcastlejs favor, wins his daughter. She is not sorry that she stooped to con- quer and the curtain falls with all glad that the mistakes of a night have been corrected.

Altho both attendance and interest might have been increased we still have many enthusiastic workers who are doing all in their power to keep Wrightonia at the top. ,During the past year some excellent programs have been given. NVe have endeavored to have social times, too, therefore several programs have been given in the gymnasium. The best of these was an April Foolls Party at which every one had a rousing good time. Our essays, some of which have appeared in the Yidette, deserve special notice. They were well written, and showed considerable talent on the part of the writers. The music, too, tho not in quantity, has been superior in quality. YVe have been favored a number of times by the l. S. N. l'. Urchestra which certainly plays well. The membership of the school has been exceptionally low this year, this has had a noticeable el'l'ect on the regular weekly attendance of the society. Loren Culp, Nora E. Blome,and Herbert Uoons have in turn been Wright' t-onia7s energetic presidents, and they deserve commendation for their faith- ful services-for often they have had to labor against diliiculties. The contest, the great climax of the year, came and went, and amidst yells and shouts of enthusiasm Wrightonia once more carried oil' the laurel wreath. Now, as the year closes, we part, carrying with us many pleasant mem- ories of the pleasant times which this society has afforded us, and as we have derived help and pleasure, so may many others in the future. We wish it unbounded success. BERTIIA Ui.slcN. Y A v v Ao ZW Ill 1' flfmlu' ltflfi' ffforff lll'1'1llll1'N, - l,II.l,I.xN ll0I.IC. oo 'ALEIIOOS NVINOLHDIIINL 5 Y 3 , ii , Ai WRIGHTONIAN HALL.

Un the whole the literary excellence of the programs has been raised fully fifty per cent. Some fear that this has been accom- idished at the ezqpense of yvhat is tern1edet'spiritf7 VVe are told that the Phils. to-day are not as enthusiastic and ardent as the oldftimers.7' This criticism is partially just, but we often fail to take in account two things- flj the decrease, during the last few years, in the number of students and QQJ the increase in the number of literary societies. These two factors have worked against both Philadelphia and Wrightonia and each society has suillered materially. But we must not despair and the fact that Phila- delphia is not quite as Nourishing as in former years should only incite us to work harder-to be more loyal. But now as this school year draws to a close we can not but feel that the hardest struggle is over. The pathway ahead appears brighter and smooth- er. The ollicers and loyal members who have guided the coach up the steep hill of this year deserve the credit of their task. They have been the scotchers,'7 as it were, who have kept the coach from rolling backward Without an exception, the presidents and vice-presidents for the past year have been persons who were not afraid of work. They have put their should- ers to the wheel and the results a1'e known. Philadelphia has been pecul- iarly fortunate in the selection of her ollicers this year. The contest fell to Wrigghtonia and it was the general opinion that NVrightonia deserved the decision. Uur contestants did their work so well that we were justly proud of them and shall always remember their hard and faithful work for dear old Philadelphia. Rios I+: M nv in: . T1 APPHO. The Sapphonian Society not only assures the memhers of many interesting and instructive flx,m gf programs hut also aillords them, thru its com- mittee formation, an instruction of a some what diil'erent character from that which can he ohtained in required school work. 17-1' 2' This year the society is divided into 4-J three eoimnittees,the Literature, Music, and Athletic. Literary programs are given in turn hy each of the commit- ? tees. The meetings ot' the society a1'e held on alternate Friday evenings in Miss Colhyfs room at the itlniversity. The programs have heen interesting, prolitahle, and enjoyahle. The l,iterature Uommittee meets at ' e home of Miss tfolhy. The time has 6 hcen spent in reading the tragedies of Sophocles. The lirst program was upon the Attic theater. For in order to Llljl-l1'9ClL1tG fully the hlays, we lirst studied the theater itself, the relation of the chorus to the play and the relation ot' the play to Greek life. Une es- pecially interesting program given hy this committee was a reading ul' the tragedy tlidipus, the King. The memhers were dressed in costumes similar to fff,,f2gK QKYX those worn hy the tlreehs. A special feature ofthe Q program was the solo, Hymn to Apollo, rendered hy X .Sw KM, Mr. Westholl' in Herman. Bt The Athletic t'on1mittee which meets with Miss J ,nj Cummings has studied, hoth as a science and as an art, howling, and lield hockey, hesides other modern , i games. They have presented in their programs the f LL development of Athletics from t-he Hlympian games to the present time. , fzf i, si The Music Committee meets with Miss hlavity. 'X X During the year they have made a study of the great ' several others. They have carefully studied the dif- ferent forms of music as the waltz, the march, and i v i composers, Sousa, Beethoven, Uhopin, Strauss, and ,ff A It I If X XX 1 it the opera. Their programs have consisted of hiog- raphies of the composers, the historiesof the diiler- 1 ent operas, and illustrative music. Fehruary 17 was made memorahle to Sapphonians hy a social held in llooan 18. Members oi' Sappho who are to he in school next year look forward with much pleasure to renewing their 1nemhe1'ship in this society. Esrinca SICICLICY. I lll'lHlll'11! Illfflfllliil' 1-11 lfn li.

Tl1e flow of eloquence of so111e of tl1e elder orators S0011 pervaded ililltl saturated tl1e souls of all present The late11t energies were aroused. Two political parties were formed: a president was electedg Ellltl active work was begun.

Tl1e constitution l1as bee11 somewhat modified. The terms of t-lie vari- ous otlicers have been li111ited to six weeks. Another cl1a11ge advocated is that no person shall hold tl1e same otlice 1nore than o11ce. From the CllfLllg9S lllZ1IlQ a11d proposed we lllllSh conclude that tl1e Ciceronian Society is active a11d alive. It is outgrowing its constit-ution. The Model Senate which is a feature of tl1e organization has bee11 an intellectual inspiration to many of the boys. This can be seen by Cillllllg to lllllltl some of the questions discussed: Taritl' R1Ol.H1'l1l, Treatment of Phil- ippincs by the United States, Ship-Subsidy Bill, and tl1e Japanese lVar. The Model Se11ate l1as reduced tl1e tariil' without a special session of Con- gress, gl'ZllllQf,l freedoin to the Filipinos, defeated tl1e Ship-Subsidy Bill. a11d made peace with Russia without tl1e lllIQl'fQ1'QIlCQ of England, l'i91'lllZLlly, or ltl1'i1.l1CG .

NVe plan to have at least one social event each term, so that it is not all work and no play. During the fall term, Miss Gowdy very generously gave us the use of her home for a candy-pull. The girls dressed as their small sisters and indulged in games and candy-making. Every one present en- joyed the evening. On March 3rd, we gave a reception in the Art Room ofthe University Building to our friends amongthe young men of the school- About one hundred persons were present. During the iirst part of the even- ing the o1'chestra of the school played for us. Later a clothes-pin race and and gr mum-social were enjoyed. Everyone kept mum while the following nnnn-program was given: Philharmonique Orchestra-Sonata in E Flat, Opus 36.-Director Alvinus Uoithus. Monolog- Little Eva 7'-Viola Deane.

Since the beginning of the fall term, there has been a great improve- ment in the work and a steady increase in the membership of the club. Much of this is due to the help we have received from several members of the faculty and to our faithful presidents. M ARY RATHSAQK.

The supper was servecl in Roman style: Miss Hose Meyer, our pl-t-siilent, in ellarg1ete1'ol' I'i-oserpina, poureil the lihations. The guests rest- eml on pretty pillows aml ate in Iionian style. Before and after supper, Greek ancl lloman myths were relateil, anil reaflings hy Miss Meyer were illustraterl with talileaux. We next det-ifleml to give a tally-pull, at the home oi' t-he Misses Alice and lineia Smith. The girls were heeomingly mlressecl in short frocks with their hair in 'tpig tailsll ancl long curls. After making eanmly, the girls gave a primary program, whieh was greatly enjoyeml hy all. Since this f-lub has gaineil so mneh for its memhers in the way of socia- entertainment aml goorl fellowship, it is hoperil that it may thrive even more vigorously in the future.

S. N. U. and in maintaining nieinber- 0 ship in the Inter-State Oratorical League of State Normal Schoolsft The active business nianagenient- is vested in a Board of Control consisting of fifteen members elected from the student inenibers of the asso- ciation. The meetings of the Board are usually attended by three inenibers of the faculty who const-itute an advisory connnittee. The first Board was organized in the years 787 and 758. The association ever since has been in a thriving condition. In the history of the organization dillerent inoney prizes have been otlered to the winners in oratory and declaination. At present to the successful contestants beautiful gold inedals are awarded. These synibols of recognition always inust inean inore than nioney can. Each of the niedals bears an engraving of the llniversity building and the naine of Dr. Edwards, the great advocate of the power oforal speech. The orator who receives iirst place represents the I. S. N. Il. in a contest given under the auspices ot the Inter-Normal League. This league is cfoinposed of the Delialb, Maconib, and I. S. N. ll. Normal Schools.

None of us will forget the state convention that we at- tended at Peoria last fall. Everything that could he done to make our stay there hoth helpful and pleasant had been done,-the committee arranging the convention had heen especially fortunate in securing excellent leaders and the people of Peoria entertained us royally at their homes. lllhile we were there I overheard one of our girls say to another, t'Isn't this convention line? I am so glad I came. I had al- ways thought hefore that a Y. W. U. A. convention would he dry and tiresomef' Une day while at Peoria, we ate our dinner at the association rooms. These rooms include not only a dining room wiere the working girls can get their meals, hut also reading an.l resting rooms to which all of the girls are welcome. We who do not live in a large city can hardly realize how much these association rooms mean to many working girls. Each of the Illinois associations has heen very fortunate, during the last two years, in having one hundred hooks pre- sented to them hy a memher of the state committee. Among these hooks are not only several like .laeoh lliis' t'HoW t-he Other Half Livesli, and a few that are full ot good sugges- tions to the chairmen ot' committees, hut also many missionary hooks that the missionary class ot' this year has found intense- ly interesting and helpful in its study ol' l'ersia. Korea, and .lla pa n . Twice during this school year one of our state secretaries was with us. These state secretaries give up their entire time to assisting t-he old associations and organizing new ones. They are always ahle to give us good suggestions and fresh inspiration for our work. Altho we appreciate the special ell'ort that the asso- ciation girls have put 'forth when needed, yet the thing that we most rejoice in this year is the steady Faithful work of the girls thruout the entire year to accomplish the main purpose for which the Young Womcn's llhristian Association exists,-that is, hy the aid of Howl, to make the livesof all the girls happier, hrighter, and nohler. limiim Bnoaniiiinxn.

In a school of our kind many things must necessarily be omitted from the course which many people feel are essential to a complete education. Among these is religious instruction. It is, in our opinion. much better that such instruction be omitted from the course. If religious life is anything it is spon- JQX NUTHER year has been added to the history of our organ- taneous. A forced religion is worse than none. As our school is now organized the religious life is looked after largely by the Christian Associations. These organizations spring from the students' desire for religious development and in the Y. M. U. A. each member is left unhampered in his peculiar belief while all seek for the best. The Y. M. U. A. stands for the full-rounded man NVQ do not seek to make religions extremists. 'We work for an intel- lectual Christianity in a physically sound body. Altho our organization has been working silently we feel that something has been done for the men of the school which will help in their future life. Une of our strongest features is Bible Study. Two classes have been carried on thru the year and the Bible has come to be more rational to those who have been following the course. The prospect for next year is bright.

During the spring term of 1904, it was decided that the lecture board for the year 1904-5 should be organized on a new basis. According to the present plan, the hoard consists of thir- teen members, three of whom are selected from the facultyg four from the student body: and the remaining six members are the Superintendent of the Public Schools and the live pastors of Normal. It was decided at the first meeting of the board that a course of tive num- bers should be arranged, season tickets for which should sell at one dollar. After paying all expenses of the five numbers, whatever funds remained were to be spent in securing additional talent. The program of the course consisted of lectures by Bishop John L. Spalding, Professor Charles Hen- derson, and Professor George E. Vincent, interspersed with music by the Haskell Indian Band and the Imperial Male Quartette. The sale ot' tickets was so large that receipts exceeded expenditures. The surplus in the treasury procured two additional numbers, a lecture by Mr. George R. Peck of Wisconsin and an entertainment by Mrs. Princess C. Long, vocalist. The lectures were instructive and entertaining-every one finding in them many things to enjoyand ideas that tend to uplift. The music pro- grams were good and attracted large audiences. In every way the course has been a success. By securing the coopera- tion of the people of Normal, the superior course given this year was made possible. By dealing directly with those who appeared on our stage, not only better talent was secured, but the cost was much lowered. Normal Hall has been filled by putting the price within the reach of all and assur- ing a full program. The management of the course is to be congratulated upon the successful termination of this project-, which has resulted so only because of its earnest etfort. The lecture course is one of the most valuable things offered Normal students. It enables them to come in touch with the best thoughts of the time. The men who were engaged were all men Hwith a message, -a thing which made their lectures worthy of attention and aroused within us a yearn- ing to realize the ideals set forth. This year a larger percentage of students than ever before has profit-ted by the course. The advance sale of tickets promises that the patronage of the course next. year will be equally as large. The same plan of carrying on the work will be followed by the association. The following members of the board have been elected from the student body : ,Edna Uoith, President: Elizabeth Perry, First Vice-President, Henry Stice, Second Vice-President: and Leonard McKean, Treasurer.

For two years it V f had iloated proudly and defiantly from the top of the Univer- ' sity dome. But the lVrightonians won the contest, 4 to 3, and so simply substituted their colors for the Philadelphiansl. The contest was long, 'live hours long, but the time passedquickly. Dur- ing the ten-minute intermission each society gathered its forces, and from opposite sides of the hall set up a series of prepared songs and yells. Each speaker was greeted with a round of applause and upon leaving the platform the society of which he was a member expressed its approval in an emphatic manner. The speakers for the allirmative in the debate made an excellent show- ing but not good enough in the opinion of the Judges to win the debate. In the minds of all Wrightonians the debate was won for them clearly and easily, and undoubtedly the Philadelphians thus viewed the matter before the decision was announced. The orations were better than usual. This might also be said of the readings tho each was longer than the moral law allows. President Felmley raised the expectations of the Philadelphians in giv- ing the decision of the Judges. He announced first that the l'hiladelphians had won the debate, two points out of seven. At all appearances the Phil- adelphians were surprised and for a second forgot to yell. Then the Presi- dent stated that the Philadelphians had won the Vocal Solo, thus giving them three points. Every l'hiladelphian was now awake and yelled vocif- erously, but when the President quietly added that the other four points had gone to the Wvriglitonians there was a sudden suspension of business, until the lYrightonians recovered and got possession of themselves, then- well -then there was a regular pandemonium. t'Whickety, whackety, wliackzu, whack, Sing your song of orange and black.

Six from among our best students in school appeared on the program. The oration, 'tLiberty Enlightening the Wo1'ld'7, too abstract to appeal strongly to the audience, was wellorganized, was earnest and full of the be- lief and spirit of the writer. Thru the love of liberty our country has secured a free government, free industries, free schools, freedom in religious life. 'We are beset with danger in the form of conimercialism, but as long as the light of liberty lJl11'llS, the struggle for a greater, more complete free- dom will go on. The same earnest sincerity found in the oration itself was shown in the delivery. The writer never does her work carelessly. Especially, commen- dation is due her for improvement. She has won a personal contest. Lord Shaftsburyw gave us a vivid picture of conditions in England which compelled babies to work as beasts, and men, women, boys, and girls as slaves. The heart of the statesman, stirred to its depths at the horrors existing, impelled the vow to use his life for the betterment of the condi- tions surroundingfthe common people. Love, servew was his motto till death. Much may be learned by even one attempt at oration writing and an- other time a better organization of material may be made. Dignity and simplicity of manner, a generous and sympathetic attitude toward the sub- ject aided by a responsive voice, won, held, and delighted, the audience. The Immigrant'7 was an attempt to prove that foreigners who come to our country help to develop and to strengthen itq that they are honest and earnest in their motives. and necessary to the country's best progress. A vital weakness was seen in the effort to ove1'come objections to Italian immi- gration by showing that the Russian immigrant is actuated by love of jus- tice and liberty. Ease of manner, clearness in articulation, and certainty in the delivery, were the winning characteristics. The work done in the recitations was in many ways of greater merit than that of previous years. A cutting from 4'Sohrab and Rustumw cannot fail to furnish problems in delivery worthy of the effort of the most experienced reader. The heart loneliness, the purpose to find a parent soul, attract Sohrab toward the opponent whose death, pride and ambition demand, fame, contempt of a Ulluilony in Ihr' L'fll4t4'l'f,'lll'I1'll.HA'lil't'll,l.l'l 4iiI.nnl:sl,1-zlcvlfz. lIwrlff1ir islong111111lwfyjlllflsyolalrlml in luv' riffs mv' alwlfllix rullolal.H-l,lICl,l,.x tixlrllls.

Sohrab's satisfac- tion despite the approach of death, and the fatherls grief at the loss of his new-found son, set, by the poet in the quiet and loneliness of evening, are pictures one does not forget. It is a tale replete with tears. Personal dignity, a strong, sympathetic presence, appreciation of the beauty and power of the poem, suggestiveness rather than realism in the delivery told of the ability of the interprete1'. HThe Lost Wordn by Van Dyke is a peculiar conception of a man, young, handsome, and Wealthy, disinherited by his father because of his acceptance of the Christian religion, who has just begun to feel the burden of his cross. A personified evil spirit offers to restore his position and his light-heartedness in exchange for a Word-the word, Father, God. He pros- pered, but the meaning Went out of life, for with the Word was taken all that belongs to it-faith, hope, the feeling of relationship with the Infinite -and there was nothing to strive for, nothing to gain, no one to whom was due thanks for daily comforts. This relationship was re-established later by the aid of a religious teacher at the time of his son's severe illness. Belief in the truth of the story and the wish to reveal it adequately are two of the best points in connection with the reader7s Work. The oral prob- lems had been carefully considered. 'tMr. Valentine's Christmas Partyw tells the story of a bachelor Who on the evening of his death takes a fancy to imagine present at the table set for eight, each of the several sweethearts Who have in previous years in- fluenced his life. The pictures, as he talks to each, are vividly drawn and the parts of the Writing so clearly outlined as to make the story very easy to follow. Partly because of the simple plan of this Hliunianil picture, pa1'tly because of an unusual abandon on the readerls part, re-enforced by certainty of grasp, this Was the Winning number. This Was a contest of which Old Normal may Well be proud. Thoughts of the value of such Work done with a Worthy purpose must have burned their way deep into the heart of each of thc winners as the reverend man, Dr. Edwards, spoke words of encouragement and wholesome advice when presenting the medals.

INTER-NORMAL CONTEST Atiiilbltllli against Old Normal! On March 24 they came sixty strong, our visitors from Macomb. Mr. Fehnley, Miss Lucas, L Mr. Uulp, and Mr. Dixon met the delegation at Bloomington. The special car pulled in nearly on time and a lively tho fatigued com- pany came pouring out showing purple and gold galore. They were taken by special street car direct to the l'niversity. There, in the Art Rooni, as sigmnents to lodging places were made after which all went to the gymna- sium to see the double basket-hall game. At about eight o'olock the contest program in Normal Hall opened with music by the I. S. N. U. orchestrae-all commendat-ion to it! Mrs. Brazelton, formerly Miss Mary Sage, sang delightfully as she always does. The Question of the Eastl' was the tirst oration on the program. For content and power this oration stood lirst. ln delivery Mr. Uoons was easy, natural, nnallected, certaing in voice and speech, pleasing and clear. Pur- pose was the lacking characteristic. 'tThe American Navyw, given by Miss Parks ol' Macomb, claimed the attention of the audience from the iirst. Miss Parks, tho sullering from a seve1'e cold did her work forcefully. Her voice was powerful, her manner dignilied, and her hold on the audience strong. To her the judges unani- mouslyawarded the advantage in delivery. We wish her success in the coming contest- in Milwaukee. After the contest the audience met in the gymnasium to hear a dainty operetta The Spinning Bee' given by the 1-iirls' tilee Uluh. Between two of its parts was introduced t'The Spinning Chorus, hy 'Wagner. The girls were dressed in peasant costume sitting at their spinning wheels as they sang and talked. Une ticket admitted to the contest and operettav. Financially the contest was a success. On Saturday morning an informal dance was held in the gymnasium for the Mac-omh guests giving just time to make the noon train at Bloomington. Next year we go to Macomb for the state contest. .

In the iirst half of the eontest Normal'S eoneentrated aetion Kept the seore down six to nothing. Captain Herbert Coons, the mighty, In the lull of ten short minutes, Told his men to work more swiftly, If the hattle they should win there. Normal kieked off, Moore advaneed it, Forty yards straight thru our whole line, Forty paces thru our strong line- Uver then the pigskiu, pass-ed, To the Normal squad was fumhledg To the goal they pushed it slowly, Pushed it soon within six inehes, But were held and made no tally. No more the men played strong with vigor But played with eourage of despair, But the seore said Normal zero,g J. M. U. had heat us fairly. Fleeiug to the fold to northward, Speeding hy hox ear to Normal, Soon we met iieree wiley trihesmen In our hattle with the lVesleyang lVe had given them lists to ehoose from, We had given them time to think in, NVe had given them speeial favors, lVe had given them our full line up, Still ohjeeting and eomplaining, XVrangled they when we eontended That our high sehool men were students, t'Why now are you not eontented'.

At the hlowing of the whistle, lVhen the teams did eease to struggle, IVesleyan earried iive sealps homeward, Une more than had Normal eaptured. Une long week in eamp the trihesmen Of the Normal trained together, Of the Normal worked together, To defeat the l'. of I. men, 1 XVho had hoasted of their purpose, To seeure sealps twenty, thirty, Take our men off to their vamp tires, Ileek them there with awful war paint, Make them know and feel the station glib lm VL Uli'ttTQ7L Of the great sehool to the eastward!

BASKET-BALL SCHOOL which does not have a good system of athletics loses one means of building up and strengthening itself as an institution for mind training. The mind of the tewntieth century youth requires a change from hard work over lessons each of which is hard enough to take his entire study time. In the cold winter months when exercise must be taken indoors, the gym- nasium of the I. S. N. U. is used at every hour of the day. Both girls and boys are anxious to set free upon the basket-ball iield some of their latent physical energy. This is one branch of athletics in which the I. S. N. U. excels. Here upon the basket-ball field, which is an excellent one, the boys and girls learn to play and acquire great skill in this most fascinating game. Basket- ball trains the eye to see quickly and clearly. lt trains the muscles to act rapidly but accurately. The playing of this game may be said to be an art, and its execution trains both nerves and muscles to a promptness and pre- eision that is acquired in no other game. Both the girls? and boys7 teams deserve great credit for their work of the past year. The playing of the girls was characterized by fast, uheadyi' work, While a throw at the basket was usually successful and added two points to the score for Normal. Besides playing a fast game the girls played a dignified game which gives honor both as individual players and as a team. This was clearly shown when the team from Macomb met our team, The Macomb girls had been playing with an open iield which caused their plays ing to partake much of the nature of a boys' game. They were able to win from the Normal girls but we feel that great credit is due the 1. S. N. l'. girls because of their graceful, ladylike movements, which are characteristic of their playing. The boys? team has a clean record year having lost to no college team. When the whistle announced that the ball was in play the I. S. N. U. team handled it smoothly and passed it accurately. Here it was that their op- ponents found the Normal team was a combination of headwork and speed. Their quick short passes were a serious problem for the opposing team to solve and break up. The guards had a way of passing the ball the full length of the field to a forward, while the forwards were too fast for most guards.

The fact that a good mnnber have been out to try for places on the team makes us think that the students are learning the value of a season with a base ball team. This is, perhaps, the best thing that can be said with regard to our base ball prospects for this year. YVhen the young men know the benetit that is to be derived from Visiting with teams of other schools, as well as the open air exercise and recreation 3 and, too, when they real- ize that as long as athletic games hold the place in our public schools that they do to-day there will be a demand for teachers who can conduct them properly 3 then we will have a base ball team that will truly represent us. We are fortunate this year, in having more than nine experienced men from which to choose our team. Among these are Santee, an experienced college player 3 Mcliean, last year's third basemang Kimmel, who has caught here three or four seasons 3 and l-lrian, who pitched for Charleston last year. f The following is the list of players and the positions for which they are trying : L O X' Catcher-Kimmel, Santee, Partridge.

XVe have had two practice games with thc high school in which we did good. work individually, but team work was lacking. On April 15, the team boarded the early train for Wenona where they were to play the high school team of that place. The morning was spent in visiting the places of intetest about the town and the afternoon in an attempt to defeat a mixed team of high school and town players. In spite of the cold the game was good, being exciting to the last. The score was Winona ti, Normal 5. Hn April 21, the team took a tlying tripto lflnreka, going by way of ElI'aso and returning by way ol Uhenoa. The game that afternoon was not as good as the Wenona game.

VIDETTE Li - E, U E Z HE VIDETTE, our school paper, was organized in 1888 with M. j Kate Higham as editor and Hanan Mctlarrel as business manager. 0 of It is a student enterprise and the staff consists of Hfteen mem- 0 I be1's chosen from the students. The members of the staii' report Q' concerning the various organizations of the school and the news of our graduates and undergraduates. Representing the student body, they endeavor to express the student life as truly as possible. The Yidette has many exchanges, by means of which we may keep in touch with the life of other schools. These exchanges are placed in The Vidette oilice where they often alford a few moments of pleasure and proiit to the students. Each number of The Vidette usually contains an article by some mem- ber of the faculty or uf the alumni, and often articles by the students, Mr. Eelmley, Mr. Nehrling, and Bliss Uummings of the faculty: NV. Ji. Suther- land of Macomb, L. U. ,Hinkle of Peoria, and Nora Blome, Nellie Fry. Grace 'Wells, Lemma Broadhead, and Miguel Nicdao of the students, have contri- buted articles this year.

A WORD FROM TI-IE EDITORS N order that you may not fail to give due notice to all the excellencies of this Index we call your attention to the three following: First: The quality of attention which the Faculty has received.

But we have devoted to them as much space and three times as much money as was ever given l1ere-to- fore. 'We sincerely trust that the readers of the Index will be pleased with this change. Second: The index of the Index. A former editor made a cash guarantee that nothing could annual of that even Black and desires of their others to follow in their footsteps, but if anyone is in doubt about anything, let him turn to the index of the Index. Third: The good inherent in the make-up of the book. It was organized and edited at the be found a second time in the year. iWe guarantee in cash that Wilson can turn to the dearest hearts. Far he it from us to urge regular meetings of the editors held on that day of the week designated S in the calendar. These meetings lasted from 9 :Ho A. M. to 1 :OU P.

Stewart, is the only article published in the LVOrmaZ School Q11-m'terZytl1is year by members of the Faculty. The other three issues were reserved for the summer school announcement, the alumni register, and the annual catalog, respectively. Next year the usual number of articles-four-will be published either in the regular issues or in supplements. In October Miss Ela and Mr. Bawden will furnish what promises to be a very interesting and helpful article on certain aspects of art education in our public schools. In Janu- ary Miss Mavity will write on some vital topic of current interest in public education. The later numbers of the year are not yet arranged for. It is the intention to publish each year at least four really Valuable little monographs on live topics in education. Some of those already pub- lished have been in considerable demand for class useq and one, at least, has been republished i11 full by other periodicals. The Qzmrterly has prob- ably become a permanent feature among the means of extending the help- fulness and influence of this school. M. J. Homrrzs. .l1folf1f'f'f1'o111 flu' B. lf.

The members, tho numbering but eight, were Z 6 regular in their attendance, earnest in their efforts, and enthu- gffff! siastic in all practices. Harmony was an unfailing characteris- tic of all the meetings. This may have been due to the inexhaustible good humor of the leader, Professor NVesthoH'. Among all the selections on the orchestrals repertoire, the favorites are those composed by ProfessorWesthoff. That the orchestra has been a success this yearis shown by the fact that it always was in great demand for the furnishing of music at the Society meetings or when special programs were to be rendered. That the orches- tra may be an even greater success next year, let every member of the school who can play or is desirous of learning to play respond to the first call given. CELIA PEPPLE.

The Club was organized at the beginning of the Fall V Term, and met for practice each Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. The music which they studied, and in a very creditable manner performed, was of that class which not only entertains, but at the same time develops the musical taste of both the singer and the auditor. The girls appeared frequently on the society and contest programs. HA Spinning Bee'7, a charming operetta, was sung and acted by the club for the entertainment of our Macomb visitors and friends who were with us during the Inter-Normal contest. One of the Glee Ulubls events of the year was their trip to Springfield, Illinois, at which place they furnished the musical numbers for the program of the music section of the State Teachers, Association. Most of the members have been in the club all the year, but a few changes have been made, owing to the fact that several of the girls have left school. Those who have been in the club at any time during the year are as follows: Dolly Risdon, Eunice Blackburn, Sadie Pepple. Martha Thom- ason, Eva Hileman, Eleanor Hoierman, Carrie Atkinson, Della Kief, Mabel Keedy, Helen Dimmitt, Lillian Nichols, Mabelle Lutz. Hazel Brand, Gene- vieve Pierce, Emma Kleinau, and Anna Altevogt, accompanist. The success of the Girls, Grlee Club has been largely due to the efficient leadership of Professor WVestholf, who has been untiring in his efforts to en- courage and promote musical talent in the University.

It is human nature to live again in idea the joys and pleasures that have been previ- ously in onels life. It is in this way that the little unpleasant happenings are so obscured that the memory of previous school attendance is one of con- tinued and uninterrupted happiness. Perhaps nothing contributes more to these memories than the receptions. The greatest of these functions during the present year was the Alumni Reception. Alumni Reception On the twenty-second of April the Chicago Alumni Club and their friends were entertained at Normal. The delegation of about one hundred arrived shortly after noon and were greeted by the students of the I. S N. U., the faculty, and about one hundred alumni who had previously arrived from surrounding towns. All assembled on the lawn south of the building and school songs were sung under the leadership of Professor Westliolf. At two o'clock all assembled in the gymnasium for luncheon. During luncheon, the orchestra played and songs were sung by students gathered in the gallery above. An address of welcome was given by President Felmley and was an- swered by lllr. Rishel, President of the Chicago Ulub. Mr. litishel called upon ex-President Edwards and as the latter stood, he was enthusiastically cheered. The atlfair was heartily enjoyed by everyone present. The Pi-esident's Receptions The va1'ious sections of the school have been entertained by President Felmley at stated intervals during the school year. l'erhaps no memory will be more pleasant than that of the Series of receptions which the indi- vidual passes thru between entrance and graduation. Girls' Debating Club to Cicero On Friday evening, March the third, a reception was given by the Girls? Debating Club to their friends. The orchestra furnished music. Refresh- ments Were served and games played. The feature of the evening was a mum program consisting of music, 1'ecitations and a debate. Cicero to Girls' Debating Club Un Friday evening, April the twenty-eighth. a reception was given by the members of Cicero to the Girls? Debating Club. There was a debate which altho not highly intellectual was greatly enjoyed. After having disposed of games and refreshments, some of Uicero7s most noted musicians executed some very diliicult selections on instruments con- structed of various household articles. t'IARl'lNUI4I HAIUQR. 127 HD nnivx '05 wlictait. CLIPPINGS FROM THE DIARY OF A DANCER. Sept. 2-I. That wasn't any April fool joke after all! Still I thought it must be true, be- cause one of the faculty said it. And my faith is justified! It is 3:01 and I am leaning against the gym piano, awaiting developments. Where is the orchestra, anyhow '.' They said they were going to have one, hut I don't see it anywhere. It must he late. Gracious, here comes a girl! I wonder what she is going to say to me. Uh! she is sitting fIOWIl at the piano. I won- der who she is. My, but she can play! My toes pat the floor in time, my pencil skips across the page as tho possessed, my Waterbury watch and chain are ticking to the measure. Others have felt the spell of the notes. The floor is crowded, and-yes--there are two boys dancing together. I wonder who that funny little fellow is out there by himself. Oh! he was just trot- ting across the fioor to get a girl. Say! but he's got nerve! I heard some one call this a two- step. I suppose that's because two people step it off' together. Now a fellow over here just said that he could stumble thru a square dance but these round dances were too much for him. Now, whatis a square dance, and if this a round dance, how the deuce can it he a two-step? That's a question l'll have to leave to the School Management class. Iiverybody seems to be having a jolly good time. I wish I could dance. It's five o'clock and all are going. That or- chestra never came around. I wouldn't have an orchestra that forgot to come around. Uct. l. Well, here I am at the second practice dance! I thought these two weeks never would get gone. I wonder why this one wasn't announced at Gen. Exf? It ought to have been, because somt one might have forgotten to come. I've been practicing in my room with a chair, so I'm pretty certain Ican two-step. IVhere is that girl who played the two-step last time? Uh, there she is! l'll ask her to -. She said she had promised her mother she wouldn't dance. Now, why did she do that? But wait till she sees me. I'll bet a nickel she'll want to break her promise then. IVhat.'ll I do? There aren't any chairs here, and I collldlilt manage a bench very well. l might. one-step it around. Oh, there's Jack! I'll two- step with him. IIc can't do it very well, but he's better than a bench. IVell, I did. But he can't dance very well. Ile put his toes under mine all the time and, once, he put his foot right, in the way and I nearly fell. I guess she wishes she hadn't given that promise, because she smiled when I looked over there, Ilec. It. There was a. dance down town last night. I went. They had a fellow out from Bloomington to furnish the music. He played the piano. The very first thing done was a short fellow stood in the middle of the room, raised his finger, looked at me, and said, No dating ahead. I wonder how he knew I was keeping a diary and dating the pages a week ahead oftime. When I went around to him and asked, he said he could tell it by looking at me. l looked at myself in my little pocket mirror, but l couldn't see anything about dates theve. Pretty soon I walked up to a girl and asked if she would two-step the next waltz with me. Before she had time to answer. the fellow sitting hy her pointed his finger at me and said, No dating ahead. I pulled my diary right out of my pocket and erased all the dates I had put in for next week, then showed it to him. He didn't say anything, just walked off. I don't see what I did to offend him. IVell, she danced with me. ller feet didn't get in my way very much either. She told nie that No dating ahead meant that no hoy should ask a girl to dance with him until after the music for that dance began. And there I nearly spoiled my diary trying to rub the dates out! I walked across the room just as soon as the music started for the next two-step and asked a girl who was sitting all by herself if she would give me that dance. She said she had it engaged g l asked for the next and she said she had a pard- ner 3 I asked for the third and she said she had a date. Poor little diary ! Jan. 7.

Since HICN the Vliillipine Islands were under the 1'lllG of Spain, a few public and Nerinal sclioels, and colleges had been es- tablished. In the Spanish Selnmls, the Courses which en- titled their graduates to degrees were about twice as lung as they are in similar schools in the l'nited States. l'su- ally only the richer people obtained a fair education in these the selmels under the control of Spain did not furnish ac- cfnuinndatien for all the children, some of the parents sent their children to private sclmols. The inost wealthy classes frequently sent their children, when they had reached about the age of fourteen, to seine of the eoun tries of Europe for the purpose of Securing an education. The countries best known as to their educational advantages we1'e Germany, France, and Eng- land. ln 1898, during the existence ef the Republic of El Pueblo Filipino, the question uf sending students to dill'erent parts of Eurupe was ardently discussed by the leading ellicers. Before the question was ready tu be NICDAO ALIGADO LOMIBAO NATIVIDAD VARELA BUENO 131 Jtctax U15 voted on, the Filipino Republic was doomed. El Pueblo Filipino fell into the hands of the United States. When a new system of civil government was substituted for the one that had been established by the officers of the republic, the federal party of Manila presented a bill to the Bureau of Insular Affairs. This bill pro- posed to send Filipino youths to this country for the purpose of educating them. It became t-he subject of much discussion. Finally in July, 1903, the bill passed and became a law. The bill provides that one hundred Filipino youths shall be sent to this country every year. Each student shall be allowed a sum of money not ex- ceeding five hundred dollars in United States money per annum. Medical services and travelling expenses must not be taken from the sum men- tioned. All these expenses shall be paid by the Philippine Government. The youths sent to this country are not allowed to remain for a longer pe- riod than four ye ars unless a good reason can be given for having the stu- dent stay for a longer time. The youths are chosen from the various schools which have been created by the American Government. They are chosen either by the ap- pointment of the civil governor or by competitive examinations. After the bill became a law, ninety-eight Filipinos were appointed to come to this country. The other two of the one hundred were already here. The voyage across sea was interrupted by many stops. This gave all opportunity to study the customs of the different races in the East. The ninety-eight students landed in San Francisco harbor on November 9, 1903. After a three days? stay in that western city they were sent to various places in Southern California. The climate of Southern California was much en- joyed by the youths. It was here t-hey found the hot sun and frequent sea breezes of their native land. During one of the summer months of 1904 all the Filpino students were gathered together in one place and at- tended a four weeks' summer school. During the month of August they were sent to the World7s Fair at which they remained for four After this stay they were distributed among various schools in the eastern and central parts of the United States. In these states among other things, they were to learn the meaning of the words, t'snow and ice7'. Weeks. Some of the reasons for the apportioning the students among the vari- ous schools are: 1. It will give them a better chance to become American- ized. 2. It will compel them t-o use the English language instead of the Spanish. 3. The schools have been selected according to the business or professional aspirations and qualifications of the students. MIGUEL NICDAO.

He dreamed he was standing before a forest of immense trees and tan- gled undergrowth. An old man was telling him that in this forest stood a Normal School a11d among the many fair maidens and noble youths there ensnared by a slumber-spell was one maiden more beautiful than all the rest. Many youths, he said, had tried to force their way thru this forest but none had ever succeeded. He went on to tell that tho from the edge of the forest the buildings could not be seen, yet from a few miles out in the country, one part of tl1e main building was visible and that was the flag pole from which floated a banner. What kind of banner no one could tell, but the tale had been handed down that it belonged to one of the two big societies of the school. Many battles, so he said, have been waged for the possession of the flag pole, and a member of the society whose banner floated there always kept guard in the dome. Instantly it occurred to this senior that he had once attended this aus- tere school, where there had been a long list of the ''thou-shalt-notsl' and heading the list for the young men the underlined words, ttThou shalt not call a young woman by her first nan:e.77 Moreover he did not doubt that the beautiful maiden mentioned by the old man was none less than the fair Kathryne whom he had known so well there. He determined to rescue this lovely maiden, altho the old man insisted that it was useless to try to penetrate the dense tangle of undergrowth. As he entered the woods, the trees and shrubs recognizing him as their old friend opened the way before him, much to his surprise, and then closed again. Thru a beautiful archway of green leaves and flowers he advanced. As he looked upon them he could not help thinking of the time when he had patiently followed the gardener around to learn the names of these very trees and shrubs and vines. Glancing upward just then he saw the tatte1'ed banner hanging to the flag pole. As it dawned on him that those were the Philadelphian colors, this loyal Wrightonian darted like a flash of lightning up the steps, thru the hall, and up the tiights of stairs. Ashe pushed up the trap door of the dome floor, lo, the lovely Kathryne was before him wrapt in slumber. Ashe was gazing upon the beautiful maiden, these words sounded in his ears, I donlt know, sir. I don't teach percentagefl He started, looked around him, and suddenly realized that he was in the assembly room and that he had been having a pleasant dream during one of the real faculty rhe- toricals, and moreover that l1is dream had been very untimely interrupted by the head of the department of mathematics. lil'IMM A B Hoa on mix o. 133 Willa 'M illi 9 fri V5.1 U .9 ,l1icl2X, 15 A NORMAL SATURDAY 7 ATUHDAY morning!

Fortunately, breakfast is somewhat late, so almost all of the band reach the dining-room in time for the morning meal. Une diplomatic young woman, instead ot passing directly from the stairway to the dining-room, makes a detour to the basement, where she secures the wash boiler, and, bringing it to the kitchen, Iills it and sets it on the stove, thereby making sure that she will get the lirst Chance at the washtubs this morning. An- other young lady excuses herself from the table a few minutes, rushes out to the kitchen, and sets the llatirons on to heat, so that she may be ee1'tain ot' a fair chance at her ironing. The meal proceeds with laugh and cheer. Ambition runs high. There is much to be done, for each girl has planned at least two days' work to be crowded into this one day. Breakfast ended, a few tarry at the tables to chat wit-h the late eomers and the boarders who have Come from across the street. There they remain until the irate cook comes in, and in no very gentle fashion begins to sweep dishes from the table: the congenial group must separate.

Two of the girls have been delegated to go to the post ofiice to bring mail for the entire company, and they immediately set ont. From the room of the girl who had enough foresight to gain possession of the carpet sweeper before the rest of the girls had finished breakfast, comes a low rumble and roll. From her less fortunate neighborls room comes the sound of the steady scratch, scratch of a broom. Bedsteads give agonizing shrieks as they are rudely jerked from their accustomed resting places, which are invaded by the inquisitive brooms Perhaps you hear a slight crash, accompanied by an excited squeal. If so, you know that some unsophisticated newcomer has washed a lamp chimney. The chimneys are unused to such treatment, and Hy all to piecesw in their rage. The late arrivals who have not yet learned to ejaculate, That is a frightll' or who are not yet seen on the street carrying conspicuous yellowfpaper bags, are quite likely to make such errors in their housekeeping. Soon the halls are full of chairs, footstools, and rugs, piled high. ln short, every girl is resolved into a t'Dinah,U and every Dinah7l has a 'tclarinl-up spellw this morning. Even the little dog catches some of the general excitement, and coming to the foot of the stairs, growls and snaps at all who pass near him. Downstairs we hear the steady rub of the washboard, and the click of the irons as they touch the stove, while thru all and above all rises the wail of the to1'tured piano, beg- ging for l'6Sf and comfort. But here come the girls from the otlice, bringing letters and papers from home, and to one lucky girl, a huge express package! All the hubbuh stops. No more work is to be done until the home letters are read and re- read. Then the glad word passes from lip to lip, that this express package contains a home-made cake, and that all the girls in the house a1'e invited to the northeast 1'oo1n to help eat it. No regrets are sent. Every one goes. Some of the costumes at this informal banquet are rather unique, but no one thinks of that. VVhen the last crumb has disappeared, and the girls have chatted awhile. all think regret-fully of the unlinished bits of work, and, one by one, resume their tasks. But soon ,tis time to dress for dinner, and much of the work must be left until afternoon. And then the afternoon goes. With washing, ironing, mending, sweeping dusting, studying, shopping, letter writing and a lit- tle hx we -1 I , 5 ga gossip interspersed, the day wears away. Every girl, however, busy as she is, watches keenly the approach of the delivery wagons, as they come to the club house, and keeps a sharp lookout for indications of the menu for the next dayls dinner. Evening iinds a group of tired girls, who have accomplished just about one-fourth of what t-hey had planned to do, but who are happy and light- hearted in spite of all. NICLLIIC B. Fur.

I am as good looking now as Dolly Jenks, who catches half the beaux in the neighborhood. My hair is as long and dark! Good gracious! if here ain't a gray hair right on my foretop! My face is as soft and free from wrinkles as hern. Oh! if here ain't another gray hair! No one but that impudent Jane Smith would suspect that I used paint, but she had the impudence to tell me to my ve1'y face that I painted to make me look younger! There is that fine man Deacon Elwell-oh, this palpitat-ion of the heart-I caught him looking at me this morning in meet- ing. There is need enough of Jane Smith's painting, but she prefers being a pale beauty, because she heard Deacon Elwell say once that when ladies were slightly indisposed they looked interesting. But mercy, she needn7t think she can catch him! There, now I guess I will arrange my curls--I de- clare, therels another gray hair-I71l put on my new dress for perhaps the Deacon will be here tonight! Who knows? Oh! how my heart beats, I shall have to consult the doctor about this palpitation! Let me see, the Deaconis wife has been dead going on ten months. Poor man, he must be lonely there in that great big house wit-h no one but his daughter, Jane. I do pity him from the bottom of my heart. He ought to have a Wife, for Jane, poor thing, is too young to have the care of her father! She wants a mother sadly, and she shall have one if I can play my cards well as sure as my name is Sally NVhite. Ah, me! I might have been married years ago if I had not been so foolish as to Ilirt. There was Paul Whitmer as fine a fellow as one might wish to see. Ile was in love with meg but I refused him, because I thought I might do better with my pretty face. I was pretty once! Then there was James Henry. He loved the very dust I walked upon. I turned him off! and the next morning he was found drowned. They said that he stumbled and fell over the bridge, but I shall always think ltwas no accident! Poor fellow! How I felt when I heard of his death! Oh! if there ainit the Dea- con! I really believe he is coming to see me! I wonder if he will like the way my hair is done up! I took particular pains with it today. I guess I will put a little more rouge on my cheeks. There, that will do! Now I will run to the window and see if he is coming. Oh, if that mean old scamp ainlt ringing at Dolly Jenk's door! Oh, he has gone to offer himself to her, I know. Oh, the perfidy of man! Bridget bring me my smellingbottle! Quick! Oh, my heart! my heart!

T75 June and we are all thru and we are all going away-going away IW. with those precious sheepskins for which we have striven so long -' and so earnestly. Doesn7t it make you feel a little bit queer away E51 - down in the northeast corner of your heart when you think of it? Uanlt you feel a little lonesome, homesick feeling sprouting there already, now that you are face to face with the bare truth that t' it is all over ? 73 of course, we have wished, or at any rate thought we wished, that it were all over many a time before, when troubles gathered thick and fast and it seemed as if there were no way out. Yes, we have sometimes even wished we had never come at all. But such thoughts, of course, did not last very long and would not have come at all if we had not been homesick and lonely, or perhaps we had a critique lesson to teach, or had kept a book out overtime and had suffered-does a senior need any 1'e- minder? Perhaps our essays were due Monday morning and Sunday even- ing had found them not even commenced. Hr perhaps Mr. Barber had calmly announced on Friday that the notebooks were due Monday, thus re- minding us that we had forgotten to write up anyof our experiments during the past month. Perhaps we had spent three solid hours on one lesson only to fail on some minor point, and with sinking but indignant heart had watched the teacherls pencil trace this tt U 77 on the grade book. But all those troubles which seemed so terrible then, sink into insignilicance beside the many pleasant memories of our dear old alma mater. And as you are going to your train you make it a point to walk thru the campus to say goodbye to it and to the old building that has grown so dear that you understand now how Mr. Cook feels when he visits the old school and tells the students that he 't loves the bricks. ll Do you remember the time he forgot to tell us how l1e loved the bricks, and how we felt as if something important had been left unsaid? As you stroll lingeringly and regretfully thru the grass and under the trees, you feel that you can go fu1'ther than he, for you not only love every brick in the dear old building, but you love every tree in the campus and every blade of grass beneath. Then you are seized with a desire to go thru the rooms once more. So you ascend the great stone steps before the east doer and enter the longhall just as you did the first time you came. You stand looking down that fa- miliar old hallway while memories by the score rush into your mind You think how often you have come hurrying down the stairway in a fashion not always dignilied, for you were trying to get at least inside Miss Uolbyls door before the bell rang. Une would not want to be late to herclass even if there were no such thing as tardy marks. An hour there is too pleasant for one to miss a minute of it. You must look in, then pass on to Room 18. Miss Uolby's sanctum sanctorum, where anyone in sea1'ch of advice or sym- pathy is always welcome. law TIE' wlmcllax 5 HD NDEX -105 As you cross over into the oflice you think of a jolly little body who reigns over tl1e southeast corner of the room and who is never at loss for a pleasant word to say. You think of tl1e tall busy man who keeps all the records of the institution and keeps them straight too. This is the man who has the happy faculty of raising one's spirits when he cannot raise one's grade. Who could be blue after talking with him? Hels sure to send one on his Way feeling that somebody has sympathy and cheer to spare and that perhaps things aren't half bad after all. Then therels the desk of the man Who knows everythingl'-our presi- dent. What a wonderful man he is, to be sure-what a concentration of intellect and energy, what a tireless worker, what a helpful friend! Stepping over to the Art Room you recall the delightful hours when your class sat around Miss Ela in a semicircle studying history of art Of course, that came after you had been graduated from Room 9 where you learned so much about mass Hlld distance, you know. You pass out Wonder- ing What we ever would have done without Miss Ela when we Wanted sug- gestions and ideas for socials, receptions, and entertainments of all kinds- She seems to possess an unfailing supply and is always willing to help in carrying them out. Next there is Room 11, opening onto the long hall-the critique room. There you saw the art of teaching illustrated in its perfection by a teacher whose heart is in her work. Dear Miss Mavity-how we admire and love her! You remember the day when you stood before all the dignitaries of the Training Department and all your fellow student teachers, teaching your critique lesson. VVasn7t that an ordeal, and weren't you glad when it Was over? Room 12 calls your attention next, bringing up a host of recollections. Here you elaborated and elucidatedll upon the philosophy of education. Here you studied music under the etlicient instruction of Mr. Westhotf, a man who has, and who deserves to have the admiration and friendship of every student in school. XVhat an infinite amount of tact, patience, and skill he has, and how willingly he labors with the glee club, the orchestra, the chorus, and the quartette, all of which add so much to the pleasure of our many programs. Here, too, is where our senior class met so often at 12 220 to transact such weighty business as only seniors have to transact. You leave old Room 12 regretting that those days of senior meetings are over, and enter the geography room where you studied geography with the man whom all his students pronounce just fined, He requires one to do an enormous amount of work, but you feel that your time has been Well spent and you are thankful to have come under the influence of such a per- sonality as Mr. Ridgleyls. Now you descend the stairs and stand looking thru the glass door into the manual training room. You remember how you pounded your fingers when you first began your work here, and how awkward you were when you first essayed to handle a ?. But Mr. Bawden is patient, and kind, and helpful, and one soon learns to do things here. There is Mr. Stewartls nature study room almost opposite. Arenlt you 140 glad that you had such a competent teacher to open your eyes to the myri- ads of Wonderful things in nature which you had never really seen before? But you cannot tarry longer, so with a sigh because the days are over, when you used to come racing breathlessly into that lower hall asking every one you met Has the bell rung yet?'7, you pass upstairs toward the assem- bly room. But you stop at Room 24 where dear, jolly, Mr. Manchester steered you safely thru the maze of argument attendant upon the study of economics. Here we settled weighty questions that have been the subject for debate among the wisest of the land. Here we even solved the fish prob- lem. But best of all we came to know a man whose whole-hearted, kindly disposition, and whose honesty, justice, and fairness, in dealing with all per- sons and all questions, make him loved and trusted by all who know him. Across the hallway in Room 223 you studied grammar in a rational way, perhaps for the Hrst time in your life. It will now no longer seem to you the dull, tiresome thing it used to seem when as a child you were required to con over definition after definition without any regard to their meaning. Witli grateful thanks for the little gentlewoman who is the ardent apostle of the rational study of grammer, yon wander into the assembly room. Dear old assembly room-how much it means to you and how promi- nently will it stand out in your memory when you think of the I. S. N. ll Here we met together every day for General Exercises-first the roll, then the devotional exercise, then the various notices for so and so to please meetfi in 1'oom so and so 'tat the close of these exercisesw. 7Twas in General Exercises that the baseball, basketball, and other challenges were given and accepted, each one being followed by enthusiastic bursts of applause. Here we sang songs which will ring in our hearts forever. Here we listened to our various distinguished visitors who were almost invariably ttglad to look into our bright and smiling facesfi Here We listened to the faculty rhetor- icals, and, yes, itwas in the assembly room that we were Hcalled downii for whispering during a study hour, or for studying during General Exercises. Here in this old room we learned some of the best lessons to be learned in the whole institution and glad are we to have heard the inspiring words of those who taught them to us. You move on to the history room where kindhearted, fatherly Mr. Mc- Cormick endears himself to his students and proves himself a man worthy of their highest honor and deepest respect. Fair-minded, totally unpreju- diced, seeking to know the truth and to teach it, he embodies in reality the qualities which belong to the ideal history teacher. How you smile as you think of the wit and humor which seem a part of him! Tho old in years, he is young at heart-surely he has learned the secret of keeping his heart forever young. You next visit Room 25, where a woman of grace and culture teaches the art of reading. To her is due in large measure the credit for much of the good work done by our students in oration and recitation, for Miss Lucas is never too busy to find time for training anyone who comes to her for as- sistance. Crossing the assembly 1'oon1 you come to the room where mathematics 141 qlilllrl UllikAQ K neil HE mmx '05 is made a pleasure even to those whose mathematical bumps are most rudi- mentary, for Mr. Howe is past-master of his subject as well as the art of teaching it. You think of how jovial he is and of how comfortable you al- ways feel in his presence, yet no one ever thinks of taking advantage of his kindliness by shirking the tasks he sets. Now for the psychology room where you used to wonder if Mr. Holmes wasn't analyzing the wo1'kings of your mind every time you were called up- on to recite. How you used to marvel at the knowledge of subject matter which this man possesses. Here you were brought to a deep appreciation of the responsibility which you assume when you undertake the education of a child. As you leave the room it is with a firm resolution to meet that re- sponsibility fairly and squarely and to do the very best you can. With a backward glance at the assembly room, you pass thru the east door toward Room 27 where you early had it fully impressed upon your mind how little you really knew. Your ignorance certainly was ap- palling, but you found that Miss Hartman has a big kind heart and is ready and willing t-o help just such people as you if they show a disposition to help themselves. You laugh as you think of one of those droll, point-ed, little stories which she tells as no one else can, then pass out thru the Vidette office into Room 28. Here in Miss Blanchard7s class you used to read those remarkable orig- inal stories which exhibited such dazzling brilliancy of thought and such elegance of composition. Miss Blanchard is a favorite with the girls, who find her a willing helper in any enterprise they undertake. You ascend the stairs to Normal Hall which is ringing yet with the echoes of the contest. You think of the many pleasant and profitable even- ings you spent here listening to the numbers of the lecture course. 'Twas here you 1'eceived that precious diploma which stands for so much to you. Of course you will not think of leaving without stepping into your soci- ety hall, where you glow with enthusiastic pride for your society which is undoubtedly the unquestionable superior of the society which has its hall at the other side of the building. At last you start down the stairs. How many, many, seniors ofothe.1 years are looking at you from the walls of the halls. How queer some of them look, but you reliect that some day you will look just as queer. You see the pictures of many men and women whose names have become famous thruout the land, and you think that truly there were giants in those days. You reach the first Hoor and pass out the north door. To the northeast you see the public school, and in front of you the training school, where the patient, helpful, training teachers smoothed off the rough edges of your teaching, pointed out your weaknesses, suggested how you might improve, and encouraged you by commendation of your good points. Those are friends you will not Soon forget. And the children, too, who were your pu' pils, and who became such devoted little friends-they, too, have a place in your memory. After following the walk to the west and south, you throw yourself down under a tree and gaze admiringly and alfectionately upon the beauti- 14: ful gray stone building which shelters the gymnasium, the library, the mu- seum, and the science rooms. Uh! those exciting basketball contests in the gynn when Welnade Hueveryioofiing udth ourshoutsand when eveuthe nioststaid and digniheml nienibers of the faculty yedled aslustdyfas any of us-only Miss Cummings didn't-she is never anything but calm and lady- like.

RIOIDEL L.x1'ND1zY Co., CITY, GENTLIQMEN:-I have just completed the analysis of the water obtained by me personally from the treat- ment-tank in the laundry, which is the water just as used for washing. I am much pleased with the treated sample. It is clear, 1-olorless, and free from suspended matter. The iron has been entirely re- moved, the lime and magnesia greatly lessened in quantity, and the water rendered several degrees softer than that from the Big Four vein. It is entireg free from ingredients injurious to clothingg and is softer than the average cistern water in Bloomington, and freer from coloring impurities. I consider it by far the linest sample of water for laundry purposes that has come into my laboratory from any Bloomington source, Respectfully submitted, R. O. GRAHAM, Chemist and Analyst. T doesn't cost any more to have your shirts laundered properly than to have them done up. Let the man in the red Wagon get your bundle. LEADER LAUNDRY, Bloomington , lllmois.
