VERY member of the class of ' 97 is desirous of leaving set waj ' s followed by preceding classes. The result is embodied in this book. While tlie idea of publishing an annual is not entirely original with ' 97, yet we are the first cla.ss to attempt anything so complete. Although the E.mpanda at its present age cannot hope to take a place among the annuals of our large colleges and universities, it should prove a source of much pride to the class and all who have had any connection with it. We sincerely hope that succeeding -J cla.sses will continue to publish an annual, as matter of much interest and usefulness to the alumni and .school can thus be preserved for future reference. The board will not offer an apology to its readers, taking it for granted that too much will not be expected from its editors, who are entirely inexperienced in this work, but will ask your kind indulgence for any shortcomings.

Throughout the Junior year we struggled nianfull -, and tliough some few fell by the wayside, the greater number pressed on and reached the goal. Laying aside our Algebra and Botany books (together with many a happy remembrance jf botanizing expeditions), with glad hearts we entered the Senior life. Here we found a feast of knowledge fit for philosophers. Once every day, into our fresh young minds we crowded years and years of history, and problems and prob- lems of geometry. Physics also hath shown us her charms in light, heat and electricity. One brilliant star of the cla.ss is now busy concocting a plan by which a teacher sitting at desk and waving a rod in the ether, may send sufficient vibration to the body of a voung offender to cause the recreant immediately to take position and assume work. And then, after all we had learned of the properties of heat, we set out on the coldest day of the whole year to enjoy the Seniors ' annual sleigh ride. . nd although iS there was many a frozen nose and toe, and many a sleepy head the next day, still, to the coming Seniors we would say — Such niglitly dissipation Giveth added expectation. After encountering man} ' difficulties along the way, we reached the pons assignonim and crossed it in safety ' . Bright smiles then covered our faces and we cantered gaily along with Caesar toward the Rubicon. But why speak of such things when we still have the Model School in remembrance ? Here Description cannot suit itself in words, To demonstrate the life of such a battle. We toiled from daylight until dark, pouring over methods and plans, correcting papers, washing slates and boards. This done, we thought that if the pupils were taught nothing, still we should receive much credit. But, alas ! Despite all our .sorrows and joys, all our hard work and fun, we still have kept in rank and file. The Commencement Day is here. We are graduated, and go out into the wide, wide world. All cannot become great, some will have to care for the little things of life. But we shall all do our best for the glory of our Alma Mater and dear old ' 97, the class which can say to all past and succeeding classes : — Let us but blow upon them. The vapor of our valor will o ' erturn them. 19 Ofd ©f 0ass ©ay E,:)i ¥d$m AniJRESs, . . ........... Prksidknt Mrsic, ............ Myrtle E. Sthphews History, ............ Cl. r.

Always welcome hearts that were true, I know, For WE are the pride of this Normal. We once did form a Senior class That went the Normal through ; For a meeting place we had two-twentj-two. And when a motto we must choose We gather to scatter we chose. With green as our colors, Nasturtium our flower. And with officers four. As we needed no more, To a very high place we then did soar. And now if you ' ll listen we ' ll tell What this great class has done ; Why — we ' ve made good friends And studied — some. For — Chorts. How we (lid wrestle with Physics so hard While the term went on ; We would wake in the morn to rival the dawn While the term went on. And at last assured after manj- a fright We ' d passed it on P although pretty tight, We chuckled with glee and with much delight While the term went on. Of many class meetings we were very fond While the term went on ; Football games and baseball too, 40 love, also While the term went on. We ' ve issued an Annual which is out of sight, Had quite a sleigh ride though not in daylight, But have always acted c.taii y just right While the term went on. There is only one class in this school That we would call our own. And the class we sing of, we love Dearer than is known. This darling class is ' Ninety-Seven, It ' s greeted with a smile ; And when it says Good-bye, Juniors, ' They ' re thinking all the while That there was Chorus. Only one class in this school for we, Only one class that had our sympathy But it ' s gone from us forever As we very much regret, And now there ' s no class In this school, we fret. Good-bye, Juniors, good-bye, teachers, Good-bye to all. We ' re going to leave you now. Merrily we s ro l along, stroll along, stroll along. Merrily we stroll along Through the wide, wide world. Edith JIarie Ekhkrts. mmr Wi$l©rf. ■ VERY government has a climax to which every event in its history seems to point. It is so in the history of the world. For twenty-two years Indiana Normal has been gathering her forces for the production of a class that should excel all others. It seemed for a time that this hope would be realized in the present Senior class; ' g 0 .j but when ' 98 appeared for the first time as a whole, students and faculty imme viU« , ' ' ' diately recognized it as the class of classes. During the fall term, ' 98 confirmed the good opinion above nientioaed. As a class, its brilliancy was phenomenal. Its accomplishments in mathematics, classics and the sciences, greatly surpassed anything before known in the school. i Yet, the athletic department and social were not neglected by the Juniors, for their presence brightened every entertainment, while their skill and grace made the football and baseball teams the admiration of athletes. The first class meeting took place near the close of the winter term. Here the Juniors established a precedent for future classes by reducing the length of meetings to about three hours, and by preserving absolute peace and quiet throughout that time. One of the tilings arranged at this notable meeting was our sleigh-ride. The long jolly 23 drive to Slielocta, with the best of suppers at the end of it, can be imagined only by those who have experienced a Normal sleigh-ride. That, and the ride home, defies our power of description, so we leave it to be guessed at by our readers. From that time onward the class devoted itself to work. The winter term was brought to a close by the Junior contest, on which occasion the Juniors demonstrated their right to the high opinions already entertained of them. The spring term found its absorbing topics in botany and music. A few easier subjects, such as algebra, kept us w ' ell occupied when we were not raiding the woods for specimen?, and so the last term of our life as Juniors glides away, to leave us as Seniors, looking forward bravely and hopefulh ' to the time when ' 98 shall take her stand as the first class in our dear old school. The following are the officers of the class : President, E. F. Shaullis ; Vice-President, H. W. Miltenberger ; Secretary, Genevieve Hasson ; Treasurer, Margaret Grant. 24 N at least one night in the year the Juniors attract more attention than even the Seniors. This j-ear it happened upon March 15th, and no effort was spared by the Juniors to make their contest the best one in the history of the school. Toward that end they decorated lavishly with the class colors, purple and white ; and they and all their friends dressed in their best. Knowing that eloquence charms the soul and song the sense, they put both in their program. To assist them in charming the sense, they had the Chapel Orchestra : Miss Rue Thompson and Mi. ' s Martha McCright, to render piano solos; and Miss Peabody and Mr. Apple to sing. To charm the soul, they chose ten rep- resentative Juniors. The eloquence and merit of Miss Mary Crombie, Miss Fannie Bixler, Mr. Alvin Sherbine, Mr. C. M. Smith, and Miss Grace Hogue succeeded in winning the approval of the judges. Each one ' s work deserves mention, but a few good general points will be noted. By both de- baters, the points were well brought out and logically stated. The essays were graceful, artistic, and well given. The declamations were wisely selected and carefully prepared. The subjects of the recitations commended themselves; they were perfectly committed and given with the added charm of clear voices, which made them one of the most pleasant parts of the program. As a literary entertainment, in point of finished, artistic, and graceful performance, it was the be.st given this year, and in the opinion of many, the best one ever given at Normal. 25 ' rii ©cram.

DECISION of JIDGES. 26 ipj ' Dl fiMi jF the sajing, The strength of a school is in her ahimni is true, as we beheve it is, the Normal School of Indiana should stand forever, so loy- ally is she supported by her alumni of se ' en hundred and ninety-five members. The school has graduated eight hundred and twenty-six per- sons, but thirty-one of this number are deceased. These alumni form an association which strives to promote the interests of the school and to maintain a spirit of fellowship among its graduates. One of its ways of accomplishing these things is by the organization of branch associations in the counties surrounding the school. These associations have officers similar to the association of which the} ' are a branch, and are energetic and enthusiastic in their work for the school. Every year they have a banquet, and there the members, together with invited guests, meet and eat and drink to Normal. These branches in the different counties do much to keep alive the interest of the former pupils of the school and to preserve friendship among them. The great vitality of the school is shown by the long-continued interest among the graduates. Probably the alumni of no other normal school has more distinguished members than that of 27 Indiana. Prominent among these are: John V. IHkin, Deputy Attorney-General of Pennsylvania; Irwin P. McCurdy, D.D., Litt.D., Ph.D., Sc.D., of Philadelphia; Joseph A. McCnrdy, Esq., of Greensburg; James V. McCreery, of Colorado; W. W. Ulerich, Superintendent of Public Schools of Westmoreland County ; James E. Andrews, Judge of the Thirty-third Judicial District, LaCrosse, Kansas; T. L. Gibson, Superintendent of Public Schools of Cambria County; V. S. Trent, Esq.; J. J. Miller, of Pittsburg; Hon. J. B. Hammond, Chairman of the House Committee on Education. One of Normal ' s strongest points is her alumni, and we hope that as others go out to swell its numbers, they will, in the same spirit, work for her advancement, thereby proving themselves true and loyal to their Alma Mater. The following are the officers of the association: — President, J. G. Carroll; Vice-President, H. S. Bender; Secretary, Margaret Cubbage; Treasurer, Sarah M. Gallaher. Executive Committee — M. C. Gordon, Mae Miller and Clara C. Langham. 28 Biilvj.Buuu kitOliiJ ' mt £r©dtlp|Iafi ' tittrarif S®§i ty: HE nineteenth daj ' of May, 1875, was a memorable one in the history of the Indiana State Normal School. On that day the gentlemen students and the gentlemen of the faculty met in Normal School Chapel for the purpose of organizing a literary society. The meeting was called to order by Prof. A. J. Bolar. During the meeting a number of enthusiastic speeches were made in behalf of the organization, and a committee of four was appointed to prepare a constitution to be presented at the next meeting. This was the first step taken toward pernia- I nent organization. The report of the above committee was presented and accepted May 28, 1875, thus ushering into existence an organization that has done much to help mold the destiny of our good and popular institution. The Society was named The Fairfield Literary Society, in honor of E. B. Fairfield, D.D., LL.D., the first principal of the school. But on July 22, 1875, at his earnest request, the name was changed to The Erodelphian Literary Society, by which name it has since been known. Having now all the credentials necessary for carrying on the work, the place for meeting was 29 next to be considered. The room at the west end of North Hall, second tloor, was the one chosen, and in this, weekly meetings were held until the fall of 1878, when the society was obliged to move to Normal Chapel. Here it remained until 1883. At this time the trustees set apart a hall for its exclusive use, and the society has continued to occupy it ever since. The hall has been improved from time to time. The floor has been covered with new Brussels carpet, beautiful curtains adorn the windows, pictures are on the walls, and a new piano adds to the attractiveness of the room. At the organization, the faculty thought it best to admit only gentlemen to membership in the society. This opinion prevailed until the opening of the following term of school, when its doors were thrown open to both .sexes. The effect of this is too apparent to need any comment here. The school at first being small, the society was correspondingly small, but the work was ef- fective. The earl ' members were of rather mature years and felt the need of literary training in preparation for actual life, and consequently spared neither time nor energy in the performance of society duties. The school not growing in numbers as fast as in thoroughness of work, it soon became apparent that the meetings should be changed from weekly to bi-weekly, in order that the students could better carry on both the school and society work. During these years trials beset the society on all sides. She was witliout a library and had no money in the treasury. The first fifty dollars worth of books was bought at the expense of personal comfort on the part of a few of her most earnest members. This was the beginning of our present large library. In the fall of 1883, a charter was obtained in which the society was given the power to buy and hold property in accordance with a legislative act granting the same. Various revisions have been made in the past years in the Constitution and By-Laws of the Society, as experience and further study dictated, but in all essential respects they are as they were originally framed. 30 The name Erodelphian Review is given to our paper, blue is the society ' color, and the motto is Per Aspera ad Astra. These are the names that inspire many to come back to the scenes of their former triumphs and gladden the hearts of the Erodelphians who are now activelj ' engaged in the affairs of society. Private meetings are held on Saturday evenings throughout the school year. However, at the beginning of each term, a public meeting is held in the school chapel, and is open to visitors from the town. The anniversary is held during Commencement week in each alternate year. Throughout Western Pennsylvania, in the mi nistry, in law, in medicine, in the teacher ' s pro- fession, in the editor ' s chair, and in business, we find Erodelphians making for themselves a name and a place in the world. We look with pride at our past history. Fidelity has been our watchword. The society still keeps pace with the onward movement of the school, and to-day occupies an enviable position for character of work and usefulness.

Dude of Athens. Quince and Bottom are the leaders, and while the former is stage manager, the latter is the leading actor and generally relied upon. Their entire ignorance and lack of experience show in all their plans. Their attempt occupies part of four scenes in the play of Mid- summer Night ' s Dream, as loUows : act I — Scene 2. The men meet to lay their plans and cast their parts. , CT II — Scenk I. The first rehearsal in the wood. While Bottom is rehearsing he has a strange adventure. Puck, a fairy, amused by the swagger .and conceit of Bottom, fastens an ass ' s head upon his shoulders unknown to him, and to the great fright of his companions. ACT IV — ScEXE 2. Third meeting and last before the actual performance. The actors meet without Bottom and are about to give up the play, when his opportune entrance enables them to complete the orfginal plan. ACT V — ScENR I. The actual play within the play upon the evening of the wedding. Theseus and his court are entertained by the play in a manner not intended by the humble performers The humor of the situation, as portraved by Shakespere. lies in the contrast between the witty asides of the polished Duke and courtiers and the earnestness of the laboring men, who arc all un- con.scious of the absurd spectacle which they present. 32 ; i. Ilyl iitmry mm ' m Finally for its more v T) AVING decided to organize a new society, admitting both ladies and gentlemen as members, The Ladies ' Literary Union disbanded and established The Huyghen- ian Society on October 2, 1875, when nineteen students — eight ladies and eleven gentlemen — met for that purpose. The first officers elected were: W. L. Stewart, President, A. D. McComb, Vice-President, and Agnes L,. Thompson, Secretary. Of course, the first thing to do was to find a name for this new-born society. What name could be more pleasing, or more suitable, than Hughenian, after Christian Huyghens, one of the greatest philosophers of the seventeenth century. With such a motto as Search for Truth, prosperity followed. New members were received, from time to time, thus encouraging the new society. In 1876, the Huyghenians, always awake to the best interests of their society, applied for a charter. This was granted on June 14, 1876, just eight months after the society was organized, and the first chartered society of the Indiana Normal School was established. With this manifest zeal and enthusiasm, success was certain. , in 1883, the society became so strong and promising that the trustees set apart a room meetings. Safely anchored, the Huyghenians now prosecuted their society work with even igor. Since that time it has been increasing in interest as well as membership. Recently, i3 the hall has been repajiered and repainted, new cnrtains put up, and beautiful pictures have been presented to the society by loyal Huyghenians. While the society has been paying nuich attention to the appearance of its hall, its literary work has not been neglected. Each Saturday night a well filled program is carried out. An inter- esting part of each program is tlie general debate. All members of the society take a lively interest in it, both ladies and gentlemen performing. Impromptu classes are frequently appointed, thus affording the members an excellent drill. Another interesting feature of the meetings is the music. Solos on the piano, guitar, violin and cornet, as well as vocal solos and selections by the Huy- ghenian Male Quartette, add much to the enjoyment of the evening. Occasionally, an evening is set apart for some special author, all the performances being made to bear on this subject. In all the meetings the performances are carefully criticised, thus enabling each performer to improve. The following is the program of the Open Meeting during the Spring term of 1897: I ' .VRT I.

Bantlkv Thus far we have spoken of the literar} ' work of the society, but we must not fail to speak of its financial condition also. The Hnygheniaiis are absolutely free from debt and still have some money in the treasury. Our membership is rapidly increasing. This term we have received about forty new members, and have bright hopes for many more. As the tenth anniversary of each class conies around, we see many prominent persons wan- dering back to Huygheniau hall, where, by the admirable drill received, they were better prepared to perform their later duties. These persons can,, no doubt, attribute at least a part of their success tio their .society work. In looking back over the twenty-two years ' work of this society, the members are pleased with the progress it has made. From a small beginning of nineteen metnbers, it has increased, ' until we have many times that number. With a comfortable hall, a large and increasing member- ship, talent displaj ' ed on every side, loyal members and willing workers, we look forward and see bright prospects arid much success for the Huy,g.lieiiiaii Literary Society. 35 36 %p Yone© (5i ' o ' 97 ' ircle HE object of this orgaizatioii is to promote systematic investigation and study, and to advance scientific knowledge. One method of work is for each member to select, before Novem- ber of each year, some topic for special study during the following year, and report the same to the secretary. Each member prepares a paper on his topic and gives a report of his work at the annual meeting, which is held on Tuesday morning of Commencement Week, each year. ©fflcers.

OR years the Christian Association has been the principal religious organization of the Normal School, and it has proved to be one of the most helpful features. It was organized in 1885, with Prof. Fair, President; Miss Annie Given, Vice-President ; Prof. Davis, Secretary : and Miss Adah Marshall, Treasurer. Since its organi- zation it has steadily increased in numbers until at present there is a membership of about two hundred. The Thursday and Sabbath evening prayer meetings are well atteiidtd, and the Association, realizing that Christianity is a practical thing, endeavors to make these meetings a help and an encouragement in the most commonplace duties of school life. The committee of the Association are doing earnest work. The committee for welcoming new students is becoming one of the most important. The work done by this committee at the opening of each school term has been highlj- appreciated by the new students. The membership committee is doing active work bringing the new students into the As.sociation, and encouraging the others to more active work. Although, not connected with the State Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A., the Association has 38 had visits from representatives of these organizations, and has been invited to join them in their State and National Conventions. Accepting their kindness, the Association sent a delegate to the National Y. W. C. A. Convention at Northfield, Mass., last summer, and had two representatives at the State Convention, held at Harrisburg, in October, 1896. A number of the former members are now missionaries in our own and foreign lands. In the work among the Freedmen are : Miss Mar)- Williams and Miss Mara Clingerman, in Spellman Seminary, Atlanta, Georgia; Miss Florence Stephenson, Ashville, N. C; Miss Ella Day, who was in the College at Norfolk, Va., for several years; and Miss Dain, now dead, who taught in Scotia Seminary, Concord, N. C. In the foreign field we are represented by Dr. Bertha Caldwell, at Alla- habad, India; Miss Margaret C. Davis, at Landour, N. W. Province, India; Mr. W. F. Shields, in Siam ; and Miss Troup, in South America. Among those who were foreign missionaries, but have been removed by death or ill-health, are: Mrs. Jennie Given Anderson, who died in India; and Mi.ss Annie Given, who spent seven years in Northern India; and Miss Angus, who died on her way home from Southern Africa. Mrs. Schmucker, who was in the Egyptian Mission two years, is now in Pennsylvania, and Mrs. Mary Work Hogg, who spent four years in Egypt, is now living in Oxford, England. The present officers of the A.sspciatiou are: — President. Prof. H. R. Jaques ; Vice-President, Fannie Roller; Secretary, Elizabeth Welsh; Treasurer, C. M.

HEX the association of King ' s Daughters of Indiana Normal School was organized October 14, 1888, the following officers were elected: Miss Martha Cameron, President; Miss Emma Mayor, ' ice-Presi(lent ; Miss Edna F. Chester, Secretary ; and Mi.ss Anna Kimber, Treasurer. The object of this organization is to develop spiritual life and to stimulate chri. ' itian activity. It is the earnest desire of the members to be trained to work in Christ ' s vineyard, and to seize every opportunity to help others bear their burdens, ever remembering, inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my little ones ye have done it unto me. That the work may be made more effective, the organization is , ) divided into circles of ten, guided by a careful leader. These circles meet every v3 week when a scripture lesson is read, and hyums of praise and prayer are offered to our King. New plans of work are suggested, and we receive special help by -•na S 40 telling of encourageniei)t or trouble that we have met with during the week. We find of all the work ill which the King ' s Daughters have been engaged, that of self-government has been most important. Sometimes we turn our attention to the cultivation of a special habit — cheerfulness, charity toward our fellow students, or self-denial — and give a report at our next meeting of the battles won or lost. The second Sabbath of every month a general meeting is held of all the Tens, when, after the devotional e.xercises a report is made of each Circle ' s work, and the members are helped in their work by an earnest address from the President. The King ' s Daughters here are by no means a strong organization, but they have done much in the last nine years to smooth rough places. Many sad little hearts at the Orphans ' Home or the hospital have been made light at Christmas and Easter by flowers, cards or colored eggs; many families have enjoyed baskets sent to them on Thanksgiving; many invalids have been cheered by helpful books or papers. Besides, the King ' s Daughters have been able to hold a scholarship at Asheville, N. C, since i8gi. By means of this three girls have been sent out into the world pre- pared to support themselves and to live a better life, and a fourth is now receiving an opportunity to educate herself. While this work has been done for strangers, home duties have not been neglected. Enough money has been saved to purchase an invalid ' s chair, to make our hospital more comfortable, and to furnish supplies for the diet kitchen. All the work of this organization is done so quietly that even those who enjoy the gift are ignorant of the donor; showing that the King ' s Daughters have learned to do their alms before God rather than before man. The following are the officers: Miss M. Fair, President; Miss Nora B. Oslnirn, Vice-Presi- dent ; Miss Emelia T. Feicht, Secretary ; Miss Anna H. Parsons, Treasurer. 4r 42 S5©£1 aH y ib.

The composition of this club was somewhat elusive, never being twice the same. Theoretically, it consisted of seven young men and seven young ladies, with a lady teacher as invited (?) guest. Practically, it was never able to boast of more than three young men at any one walk, and this number was soon dimini.shed to two. The quality of those who so valiantly persisted in escort duty made up for lack of quantity, and the young ladies who took all the walks regularly, found not only that their pleasure increased, Init they gained power to endure and lengthen the distance. The intention, at first, was to walk three times a week. This was soon diminished to twice a week, and, finally, one walk a week was all for which many pressing duties left time. There are many more points of interest around Indiana than are generally known. The old paper mill, the tannery, several haunted houses, — one a station for the old underground railway of war times, — White ' s woods, and other woods equally beautiful, were each in turn visited, under the efficient escort before mentioned. The few members of the club who continued to walk after snow and ice had locked up the 47 woods and streams, were more than rewarded by the hitherto unknown beauties whicli the winter gives to nature. At no other time do we see such soft tints in the sky — such Ijlending of white and gray, and even the withered foliage of departed summer lias a grace of form and beauty of coloring all its own. As the mild airs of spring came again, the enthusiasm of the club revived, and larger num- bers enjoyed the walks which were planned. They were even benevolent enough to invite two more lady teachers to enjoy the Vi ' alks with them. It is now unanimously voted by the members of this club that it has been a source of much pleasure and benefit; that in time, with practice, our young ladies might rival their English cousins, and that many beautiful pictures have been stored away by memory for future enjoyment, while the lungs were being filled and invigorated by such bountiful supplies of pure air. r=:-i.V ' ' 4.S ripg |)3©iD@trs. n otto: Xct ' 6 bavc a biflb olf time. 1 -]I club IS not noted por numbers, or quoted ■por ony reat deeds of renoWn. ©ut You all TnU5t a ree, T l o ' anot ier tl ere be, ' TWas t firjt Walking club in tl e toWn.

He craves society and its enjoj ' ment ; in fact, it is not good for man to be alone — with his own thoughts — of course not. Besides, All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. This we Normal people believe. So every week we have at least part of one evening spent in social recreation. This is Saturday evening, before the societies begin their meetings. There are also other social events which are gladlj ' welcomed by teachers and students, such as Hallow ' een and Washington ' s Birthday. Zbc l ouiui flDcn ' 6 IRcccption. The young ladies ' hearts were delighted by receiving invitations to attend a reception given by the young men of the dormitory, on the evening of October 17, 1896. The girls looked forward to a delightful time and were not disap- ■ pointed. The halls were beautifully and artistically decorated. After being received, we were e.scorted through the different rooms, which we found neat and clean. The roomers were expecting visitors, you know. Among the amusing features of the evening was the sideshow. In you passed through the hall until you came to a room, which you were invited to enter, dimly lighted, but after mustering up courage enough to go in, you were rewarded by the remains of Henr - ' III. and Sally Bonepile. 60 The young men made very entertaining hosts, and the girls remembered for many a day the delicious taste of the cider and cake, and the delicate strains from the orchestra, while they prom- enaded and danced. As we said good-night, we certainly felt we had spent a most delightful evening. Cbc l ouno XaMes ' IRcccption. The young ladies of the Normal will not allow the young men to outshine tiiem in any way, certainly not socially, and as the boys had so gallantly entertained them, the latter returned the compliment by holding a reception on Thanksgiving evening. Not that there was an} ' par- ticular virtue in the evening, or that thanks were supposed to be given for the privilege of spend- ing the time with the fair young belles of Normal, but because this evening was really suitable in several respects. The guests arrived promptly, and after spending a pleasant time fat least the gir ' .s hope so) in conversation, music and light refreshments, the dining room was cleared, and music and dancing were indulged in to the heart ' s content. The boys found most enjoyment in dancing the quad- rille — strange, isn ' t it? So the time sped happily and swiftly along, as it always does when we are enjoying ourselves. But at last the gaiety had to close. With happy hearts the girls saw the boys depart in peace. Maebinoton ' s 36irtb av Truly, patriotism lives in the hearts of Americans. Even yet we remember the Father of our Country, and on February 22nd we celebrated Washington ' s Birthday right royally. The girls were kept busy for some time previous to the 22nd trimming coats, making frills, tying bows, etc., for the boys. Of course, in some cases it was truly a labor of love. Indeed, ' tis said the gentlemen endured the awful ordeal of the curling irons with much fortitude, dream- ing, I suppose, of how irresistible they would look in colonial tresses. The only sign they dis- played when the hair was singed or pulled too hard was a sort of sickly smile — at least this was 61 the only external evidence. There may have lieen, however, groanings which could not be uttered. The colonial .style of dress was worn, and with powdered hair, grandmother ' s and great- grandmother ' s dresses of quaint style, and even mother ' s wedding dre.s.ses on, the girls looked charming. In fact, they might well have wished colonial costumes still in vogue, for certainly many girls were beautified almost beyond recognition. At 5.30 dinner was served. The Wa.shington party came in procession into the dining room amid the applause of the assembled family. After dinner, General and Lady Washington and party received. It made a beautiful picture to behold the stately bows of the young men and the gentle courtesy of the ladies. After the reception we passed into the chapel, where a pleasing entertainment awaited us. It was Hezekiah Butterworth ' s story, The Haunted Oven. The story was efi ' ectively read by Miss Powers, and acted in pantomime by stu dents. The company next adjourned to the dining room and witnessed the grand march, led by General and Lady Washington. The remaining time was spent in dancing and social intercourse. At eleven o ' clock the festivities closed, and we all went to our rooms, tired and happy. Satur a levcninG Socials. Social events, like other enterprises, may he on a large scale or on a small one. The socials on Saturday evening before society may be classed among the latter. These are gladly looked forward to by many of the students. Kxtra time is spent by the girls curling hair and trying to look just so; that is, the fortunate girls, for the promenade is one of the interesting features of these socials. As you pass the grand stand, ni front of chapel door, you are much looked upon, — not down upon, although this may be, — hence, each girl wants to look her very best. But there are socials on even a smaller scale than this; indeed, they are so small they look selfish. These occur quite frequently, often more than once a day, and to interrupt a participant in one of these socials is to sin beyond forgiveness. Often, however, there is a .sudden interrup- tion ! ? ! Then cards of sj ' mpathy may be .sent. 62 IHallowe ' cn. An old-fashioned Hallowe ' en is a delightful way to celebrate that evening. As October drew toward a close it began to be a question as to how the 31st should be celebrated. It was finally decided to spend the evening as they did in ye olden time, and truly, it was a pleasant way. Amusements ran riot, from bobbing apples and fortune telling to the X-rays. How pleasant to have our future revealed to us, as we could by entering Huyghenian hall. We knew the past, were experiencing the present, and were now admitted into the secrets of the future. Some of the girls did not appreciate their fortune, it was so different from what they expected. But they found comfort in such sayings as never give up and better late than never. In Erodelphian hall, many feats were to be performed before you could get an apple tied up by a string or a raisin tied to the middle of one. It was interesting to see two persons chewing this string, one at each end, but as they drew near the coveted plum, and hence nearer each other, the gentleman became shy — .so the lady won. In Professor Gordon ' s room the X-rays were in working order and pictures were taken (given) free. Many received striking likenesses of themselves. But no photographer can please all his customers, and some really thought the X-ray had not done its full duty. In room 218 bobbing apples was the sport, and many found how their course of life would run. This evening recalled many happy events of the time when we were younger and longed for Hallowe ' en and its merry sports. Xincoln 2 a .

On this night of nights, in chapel, Is the German class arrayed ; Who, delighted with its wisdom. Wish that it might be displayed. So they gather on the rostrum, Girls in gowns of purest white, To make music for our pleasure, And in German to recite. And the boys are ready also. Their great wisdom to impart ; And the} ' speak in German pertly, Leaving hearers out of heart. For their innocent oung hearers Never learned the German lore. And they long to be enlightened. To be slighted nevermore. Bright and pleasant was the rostrum Decorated for this night. An d the students, looking happy. Smiled upon their tutors bright. Two young men and seven ladies Favored us with recitation ; Essays read by others also, And an opening oration. Now the German songs they ' re singing — Singing with their voices clear ; Till the audience is delighted And are longing more to hear. Now the parting hynm they ' re chanting, And Aufwiedersehn the}- say To their class-mates and their teachers Ere they wend their homeward way. Then the crowds disperse, delighted With the Deutsche Unterhaltung ; And they think of school days passing. Wishing they were always young. 65 Hcirnuil iKnp ' ll ' ?- illontng 3Vt.cnC«, Sen ' M Hlni, ISa . r.,r-.- 11- 1. r i • .. Sc ineckoihuivey Die aclit am Rhein , 1.

A fine athletic field, and a new grandstand last year, have had much to do with the in- creasing interest. The Normal team has crossed bats with some of the best nines of Western Pennsylvania. A glance at the score on another page will give the particulars. Football, too, at another season of the year comes in for its share of popularity. Altliough Indiana does not hold the enviable position in this sport that she held in ' 92, yet we are proud to know that nianj ' of the best players of the big elevens in this part of the State received tlieir first training on the Normal gridiron. During the spring term and early fall bicycling and tennis find more devotees than any other branch of athletics. In fair weather the five courts of the Association are seldom vacant. The girls, especiall} ' , enjoy the courts, for it is the one place where they can meet the young men of the school and play love-game without having to render an account to the faculty. However, tennis is a healthful and enjoyable game and one which is always likely to be popular at Indiana with per- .sons who enjoy moderate exerci.se in the open air. Tlie gyiniiasiuin is a winter and Imd-weather institntion. Here the body is trained and muscles exercised when the weather won ' t permit outdoor work. Dnrins the winter term regular drills in physical culture, under the direction of the elocution teacher, are given to the young ladies, while the young men have regular gynniasium work under the direction of one of the professors. Our interest in athletics does not lie so much in record breaking and in championship en- counters as it does in keeping well. We believe in plenty of fresh air. In the campus there are twenty-three acres, while on every side there are miles of hills and woods, .so that abundant oppor- tunity is afforded everyone who comes here, for enjoying both the boundless wealth of nature and that priceless possession — good health. The following are the officers of the Association: President, C. B. Robertson; Secretary, H. G. Carmalt. 72 Ehhll Tg| i . C. B. ROBKKTSON, Manager. R. M. Sherrakd, (Capt.) c. f. W. H. Kui.Tox, c.

While 30U stay here at Normal, take heed to your speech. And of any young man, come not within reach. I ' or if you should speak or display but a smile, Sonic innocent fellow you ' re apt to beguile. . nd you know that no lady of culture or grace Would court a young man in so public a place. . nd when you go down to the old Reading-room, Don ' t dare to break through its monotonous gloom. Or giggle, or chatter, or make any noise. But be ye a pattern of good to the boys. . nd as to the chapel you wander each day. You should brace yourselves up in a lady-like way. .And be ye attentive, devoted to prayer, I ' or that is the tone of the atmosphere there. Moreover, we Faculty think it the best, To all the young ladies this plan to suggest ; To select ' mongst yourselves one evening each week, .■ nd assemble yourselves, so lovely and meek. 90 And exhibit on this night in public display, Your silks and your satins, sleeves and hats in array ; And receive all your friends in this bustle and glare, And do all the courting you wish to do there. And also, we kindly, yet firmly insist. That from all pleasure you will please desist; And go straight to bed when the clock strikes ten, Nor leave your rooms for anything then. Indeed, we ' ve instructed each watchful marm, (In order to keep you from danger or harm,) To call at your door at the hour just told. And see that each roommate is out of the cold. And finally, you who may think it not wrong, To roll up the blinds for a serenade song ; I warn you, be careful of what you may do. For the Faculty ' s having its eyes upon you. Now we hope you will see the importance of these, So do not forget them, then, if you please ; For if you should knowingly transgress a rule. You are likely to be sent away from the school.

Then at the gate we pay the fee, And soon are in the crowd Of country swains assembled there. Where courting is allowed. We see the race, we hear the band, We visit all the shows ; And all the hot popcorn we eat. Oh. goodness only knows. We chew peanuts anil candy sweet, And drink red lemonade ; Then on the merry-go-round we ride. For no one is afraid. The country lads, they stand and stare To see such dashing girls ; They ne ' er before have known or seen Such beauty and such curls. They view the sweethearts by their sides. Who look with longing eyes At Normal girls, so wondrous fair, While envious passions rise. The Normal boys, in different waj ' S, Enjoy their holiday ; They test their strength and try their hick, And with the lasses stray. Then there ' s the boy with kodak quick, He wants snap-shots — take care! He snaps a couple, holding hands, They did not see him lliere. The race is o ' er, the sun goes down, And we to school return. Each with light heart and placard (jueer. Our lessons next to learn. And now, upon our walls appear A tempting bill of fare, First prize, Third prize, Keep off the grass, ' Of pickpockets beware. The fair! the fair! the Indiana fair! Such wondrous things and rare ! All students at the Normal know- What fun you can have there. E. Gracf; Stew. rt. 103 fS agpr Vn Iqz mi ' ii C iilUfy, TUDENTS of the Normal school are divided into three parts — one part the college preparatories and scientific claim; another, the Seniors; the third, those who, in their language, are called Juniors, in ours, subs and specials. These all differ among themselves in dress, dignity and good carriage. The college preparatories and scientifics sa - that the}- are .separated from the Seniors by their intelligence and dignity ; the Seniors from the Juniors by occupying the front .seats in chapel. But of all these the bravest are the members of the chapel orchestra, because they so gallantly aid the faculty in training the young gentlemen how to hi .soldiers. The shyest are the Juniors, who dwell down town ; because ihey continually stand in the halls during socials and transform themselves into botanical specimens, called wallflowers. The Seniors, college preps and scientifics excel these posies in bravery, for they are occasion- ally seen accompanying the young ladies in the half-hour promenade, and even attempt to teach them to skate, skip, et cetera. One of the buildings the boys are said to inhabit. It is bounded on all sides — in the summer — 104 bj- green grass, and a common expression for a new student to hear is, keep off the grass, so we can see you; in winter, bj- snow three feet deep, through which the boys are compelled to travel in getting to classes, meals and the office, — a place which they all would rather avoid. The main building is separated from the boys ' dormitory by a narrow plank, which serves the purpose of a pavement. From it, looking north, we view the ball grounds, grove and tennis courts; looking south, we see the green house and the Saratoga trunk, sometimes called the gym. Among our instructors, the wisest and noblest is Dr. Waller. He, during the counselship of onr other instructors, having been led by a desire of propriety, forms a rule and persuades the teachers that they should enforce it with all promptness. This, he say.s, will be very easy to do, since the rules are always obeyed. Having been led by the announcement that they were soon to appear in chapel and read an essay, and influenced by the power of Dr. Waller, the Seniors determined to prepare those essays which are required before graduating, to deliver them in the best manner, to make the most grace- ful gestures, so that they may be a credit to themselves, the school and Miss Powers. These things planned. Dr. Waller suddenly decides to let Prof. Gordon run the .school, while he disappears — to the sorrow of all. According to the custom of this school, all students are required to reach the dining room four minutes after the bell rings. If any are late it is fitting that punishment should follow, viz : — that they say their prayers while standing and get excused by the proper person. There are in all, two things to which Normal students look forward, one through the month of June, hot and sultry, when the state board examinations are taken with difficulty ; the other, in the winter term, when we celebrate Washington ' s Birthday in a proper and suitable manner. 105 pppIlEd ( hol nmB. p llntroC ' uctiC ' n.
