Rachel came down the aisle on her fathers arm. I here was a slight rustic as the march slopped — Ruth. Ray and Wanda .«I last! Kveryone relaxed and even the hridc looked relieved. I he hride looked very lovely in her white taffeta gown and with her large bouquet o! roses Her golden hair shone heautifulk beneath her lac cap. Never had we seen her so lovely .is when standing beside the handsome groom to quietly repeal the marriage vows. We were not at all surprised to line! that Rac hel had c hosen Olga to he her maid ol honor. She looked very sweet in pink. I he two bridesmaids. Joyce and lime, also looked lovely in the ir hlue and yellow gowns. It was nice of Rachel to invite us all to the wedding. I'.xcept lor her mother and a few friends ol the groom the imitations seemed to he restricted to the senior class ol j(). We were invited to the luncheon afterwards which was lie-id at Rachels borne under Marion’s direction. We could scarce!) wait to gel lliere to find out all about each other hour years is a long time , and now. with a few exceptions, we were .ill together again. I'.vebn. who had been asked to supers isc the serving of the lunc heon, had arrived ahead ol ns and had e e r thing in perfect order. Ilvelyn is still her beautiful c harming s( || and has changed very little. She assured us that she had been very, vers busy. I laving attained her masters degree she was now stocking toward her doctorate at ( olumhia. She had. however, taken lime oil a couple ol years ago to get married and she told us her new name . ( )l course her address is still St. Johnsburv. where she spends her time when not studying. After speaking to the hridc we got .in opportunity to talk with the maid of honor and the two bridesmaids. Of course we knew that Olga was one ol the- most successful dem- onstration teachers in the State and that she and Joyce and Rachel had spent their summers working together in a tea-room. Now that Rac hel was married we asked Olga what her plans for the lecture were. She said that she also planned to he married in the near future providing that the State continues its | ir work. We asked her if it was quite lair ol her to give up hei valuable work as demonstration teacher, but slu said that she hoped to continue serving the state as an active worker in Count) Demonstra lion and l I . A. Joyce has also been very success slid She has succeeded Miss Alfingham. and assured us that she was struggling to lill her place. She said that she planned to devote her on lire summer to writing a hook on the educational value ol distorted fac ial expressions. While at Lyndon we rememker that making faces was onk her hohhv hut she said that she had become increasing!) aware of the real value of her particular talent She Pcir e high lean believes that it is lar more illustrative as a teaching device than Graphs, which we decid- ed in senior I .due ation class were pretty dull and valueless anyhow. I.ileen approached us just as we started talking with luno. She seemed to lie in high spirits and waved to the window saving. Happy is the bride the sun shines on, Of course- we knew that I.ileen was superstitious but were a little- surprised when 'lie- ask eel June il ibis wasn t the- third time she- had been a bridesmaid, and when lime assent ed. shook her head sadly saying. I hree times a bridesmaid but never a bride. I low ever, we doubled very muc h the- truth of that statement as we had noticed that the same faithful escort brouGht her to the- c hurch as had been taking her places since? her senior year. lime told us that she- had a splendid position leac hing arts and c rails In the- c hildren in the rural schools around Burlington I hiring the- summer she- plans to studx at I V. M. When we asked her why she- planned to take her summer course there- she- replied misc hievously that she- had a friend there who was specializing in agricultural work. We didn t need to ask any more. I.ileen lias taken oxer Miss ( orneliu- senior I'.duc ation class because cd her wealth ol experience in rural schools, which has made possible for hei to solve ail the prob- lems so troublesome to seniors. She lias done axvax with Pressev and uses lu-r own notes almost exc lusixc-ly. I hiring the- summer she stays .it home to reco ei from her exhausting year. She does, of course, still attend quite a number ol dances and all of the latest movies. We noticed Margaret ( arter walking around wearing an abstracted, worried c xpre-s sion. and occasionally jotting down something. She- accosted us as we left I'.ilcen and asked if one would describe the brides eyes as two spoonfuls of the- Pacific or as two pools ol loveliness. Slu- informed ns tli.il she li.id become star reporter on the ( alodonian. She also told us that she was cpiile lluilled witli her course in I'.nglish grammar that she- was teaching at St. lohnshury Academy. We stopped to t.ilk with I )ora I yon. Some one li.id told ns that she was the best liked teacher in Orleans County. We bad always prc-dic ted that she- would be. She told us of the- trip tb.it she- planned to take to the Pac ific ( oast. She said that in a year or two slu- planned to go to Columbia to major in history. She- smiled and remarked that it did look .is il she were following in Miss I'ernow s footsteps. s a matter ol la« t she did lirst conceive the- idea of teac hing history the- dux die was asked to take over Miss f'ernoxx s Buropean I listorv ( lass. We had missed Kleanor and asked Kelna xx hy she hadn't c ome. It seems that slu- is [ S. History teacher at Smith. She has w ritten many articles on professional ethics which have been published in the- . If. A. Journal and which have been well liked. She is now verv busy on an educational treatise entitled I be- Bssenc e of I'.duc ation—• School Spirit. She also confided to Belna in her last letter that she- bad become ex- tremely interested in politics and bad written many speeches for public office seekers. She is now engaged in a tour throughout New I ogland. speaking at the- grange s telling Puqe inete ’ii the fanners how to make sheep raising a profitable business- We can see that Eleanors life is lull of the same activity which characterized her three years at L. N. S. We had read in the littrlinqtim I'reo l ress that Edna was the most successful rural school teacher in the southern part of the State. Normal school students from all over New England come to observe her work. She said th.it she spent her summers on Eleanors farm helping care lor the sheep as well as trying out all of Olgas recipes helore ( )lga passes them on to her public. We asked Waneta il she knew wh nn wasn I there. She surprised us by saving that Ann had married a farmer and hud settled down in Granby to live and to teach. I here she say n she i' able to carry out her own ideas ol education undisturbed and. Waneta 'ays. has been able to do a great deal for the children there. She was unable to come as the mud had not yet dried up in ( iranby. We asked Waneta what she was doing. She said that while teaching Physical Educa- tion at Sargent, which left her a great deal of leisure time and energy, she was also studying to be a surgeon. We remembered Imw wo had always admired Waneta s strong, steady bands. She spends her summers studying mosquitos to determine new methods of attack. She has found that fleas are more reliable object' lor experiments than guinea pigs. She keeps a large supply ol them on hand. We had often remarked upon aneta ' great love lor dogs. She 'a ' that In feeding her dog' spec ial diets and study- ing the reaction ol tin flea' she thinks she i' getting .1 new slant on the process oi osmosis. Kay said that she spends her summers helping Waneta in the daytime while Waneta assists her at night in her study of the stars. She has made some marvelous discoveries and plans in the near future to devote her entire time to it. I he recent article in the Science . 'ou s f.otter called “A N ew Star in Heaven I onight is the result of the col- laborations of these two distinguished friends. Ray passed lightly over her school year saying only that she believed with Mrs. Barrows that oner should c liange place's often. We congratulated Ruth for her new position as Principal of C helsea High School. We know that sin- lias long been asking to start some reforms in that town, but we ad- vised her to do nothing radical and to confine her activities to the high school as much as possible. I ler numerous essays, not of a professional nature, have been like a breath of fresh air to us these last few years, doing much to inspire quiet hours after days of teaching. I hese essays « over a variety of subjects from table manners to what to do in case of war. In the summer time she runs a combination sport and bookshop in Sun Valley. She spends her extra time skiing and has improved greatly since the «lays she used to ski down the trail through the pines. We returned t« Rachel remarking that it was too bad not to have .« k ’ here. She said lie bad written her a long letter. I ! • is at the present time in France as a guest of Mr. lames Naismith who invented haskelhall. We have every reason to be proud of .«•k« : for In was the star player on the team that won the international league game.

Me i collecting data on how t« solve community problems in rural districts. We remember that he started this while practice teaching «it Mosquito. We understand that he does not intend to use graphs as illustrative material, and all test questions will he of the ess.iy type. W e hear that since he has become so cosmopolitan he will tolerate nothing but the old flnglish pronunciation of his name, f lowever. if we remember c orrectly, we believe that Mr. Blam hard may be partly responsible for that. Marion was very busy («thing care of «ill the det.tils ol acting «is hostess but we inan.iged to speak with her before we left. Muring the year she leaches «it Beecher balls where she has special courses in Remedial Reading for adults «is well as children. We were more interested in her summer work. She said that she devoted her whole time then to the very absorbing study ol astrology. We were certainly surprised .it Marion avoca lion .liter all Mr. I lapgood said in science el.iss about such beliefs. She said th.it all the farmers lor miles around came to her to determine when to plant and harvest. Many young ladies and young men came to her to have their horoscopes road and have writ ten many letters expressing their satisfaction with the results ol her prognostications. W e asked her il she herself believed in the reliability of her own work and she re plied that it was a very subtle thing and 1 course there were only a very few who possess the seeing eye. Willi that we readily agreed and had to be content.

Joe and the children had gone off to a movie and I had settled down with my worn copy ol the j(j erlyn to live over again, as i had so olten in the years between. those glorious days at I vndon ( enter. It was C|uiet in the house. I could hear Bowser padding thoughtfully outside, waiting lor the children. I had turned to- ward the door with that queer, half-expectant feeling one gets so often alone in a silent house. I here was a sudden knock at the door, accompanied hv a group ol woofs from Bowser. I opened it. And there stood Donald Doyle! What a woiderlul evening we had' Mere, after fifteen years, was a connecting link with the past. Mere, actually, was Donald Doyle, a little more full around the waist, with a beautiful red Van Dyke beard, sitting and talking in the very room where usu- ally there were only Joe and the children and Bowser the Mound and me. You know. Margaret, and he gave me that shy smile of his that I remembered so well. I shouldn t he here in I allahassee if it were n I lor my having (hanged my pro- fession. And then he told me how he had spent years .it Boston s I lotel Bradford, earning and learning, until now he had his own darling inn. a new one over in St. lohnshury! Me was here attending .1 convention. Mien between long contented puffs from .1 big cigar he related all that he knew about the friei ds of our s hool days, till the room was blue with smoke, and my mind trans ported with the memories he ailed up. Only the other day I was sitting relaxed in my favorite chair, enjoying my cigar, when I heard someone humming ‘0 I ddv. Dear. I lie humming sounded so familiar, bring ing back in a rush .1 vision of Bean C oltage and dark haired Polly lewell. I started toward the door, muttering. It .in I be. w hen the bellhop appeared carrving pigskin luggage covered with Irish stickers. Directly behind him was Polly. ( tinging to each hand was a red ( becked, hcaulitul Irish colleen. She explained that her husband had stayed .it home in Ireland with their son. She was enroule to the Worlds Pair in St. I.ouis. and had planned to slay at the inn w hile she icvisitcd old haunts at Lyndon. I he next afternoon I drove her over to Lyndon Center. Mow she laughed when I told her my old Lord roadster was in the St. Johnshury museum labelled I rue Lossil. Page I hirly lira Wc were sedately greeted at Sanborn House by Marjorie Powell. Dean of Women. Marjorie still wore her dignified expression, giving away her true self only by the mis- chievous twinkle in her startlingly blue eyes. Between her eyes was the slightest trace of « froNN n which she admitted (adding that it was entirely unprofessional to do so) was caused by the prankish freshmen. lust last week. I interrupted, father sent me a clipping from the Caledonian which featured a lull length photograph of Marjorie with the headlines — Lyndon Normal Sc hool Dean Distinguishes I lersell by Devising New Methods of Ouidance lor De- lincpicnt Freshmen. By the way. did ou see Madeline Withington at the- dormitory? I lie l.yndonville news had an item about her Knoc king the long accumulated ash from his cigar. Donald replied. Yes. we stayed for suppei. and sampled Madelines line- cooking. She s noted on tlu- campus for her apple pies. I atcly she s been studying calorics. She's devised strict menus for each self- boarder. and she herself does their weeks shopping ever Saturday .it the First Nation- al Store in St. iohnsbury. But the surprise of oui slay .it Sanborn House came when the radio time signal sound- ed at six o’c lock. I he Dean explained that because ol Marjorie Kanne s prac tice in se- curing punctuality at meals in Bean Cottage she had worked up to finally become operator ol the official time signal at Washington. D. C But the biggest surprise c ame after this when swing music blared forth and the announcer introduced Anne Pierson and her famous swing band. I In new television seemed to bring Anne right into the room. She was introducing for the first time on the air the improved Big Apple which was the latest jitterbug dance creation. Anne demonstrated a new version of trucking, displaying a remarkable grace unusual in the contortions of jitterbugs. We we re still exc laiming over Anne s success and sec ret I envying he r when Marjorie announced that before we left we simply must see the improvements she had worked so hard to get at Sanborn I louse. In the living room was a full length portrait of lerdi- nand the Bull. Polly’s little colleens went into ecstasies over this, begging to take it to I )addv Of course, you asked Marjorie where Pauline Briggs was. Pauline's name immediately came to mind when I saw the portrait. I hat g;rl has made a name for herself in the state of Vermont! She is now teaching in the State Handcraft School at Fast Burke. He r specialty is different characterizations in wood of Lcidinand the Bull. At the moment of our discussing Pauline's position we heard a great commotion in the vestibule. Marjorie investigated, ushering in a lady carrying two satchels just bulging with World Book Encyclopedias. Not Arlene Russell! I exclaimed. ‘Yes. it was Arlene, but she was so pleased to meet old classmates and reminisce over old times that she completely forgot to show us the World Book. Of course, we were Pope hirly-lhree thankful. It seems site had had ,� nervous breakdown when lea lung, and so. lo keep in contort with the educational profession, she had contracted to sell encyclopedias. And what news did she base of I'.rnia Reid? . I asked, wanting to hear just a breath of news from everyone. Ermas postmistress of a little town just hallwas between Montpelier anil Newport. Sbe bas had several compliments on her remarkable fac ility in sorting mail. Her experi enre in receiving the wrong letters in the mail had evidently taught her a lesson. Suddenly, rlene burst out in amused laughter. W hen we asked lor the reason she said that only last night she had bad a long conversation with Miriam Kllsworth. She hail laughed because «liter .ill Miriam s pipe die,mis about traveling, that dynamii person had settled down to become matron of the Mt. Mansfield Hotel where tired artists go to rest. At this point Bowser harked, the door opened, and in rushed my two active sons follow- ed closely by loe. I introduced my old friend Donald, lie and Joe fell lo talking w bile I went lo the kill lien to brew some coffee and make some mulfins.

I ut I m going to give a few impressions and events in my small experience as a hitch-hiker. here shall I start? Fcrhaps, it would be a good idea for me to mention and enlarge a bit on the characteristics most important in the make-up of a hitch-hiker. I le needs patience. Patience to stand long periods by the side of the road; patience to walk long miles carrying i heavy suitcase; patience to watch car after car whizz by with empty seats, and then to he grateful and pleasant to the kind motorist who does finally carry him farther on his way. You can see very plainly wh the hitc h hiker must not lose his temper. Put yourself in the place of a driver who has picked up a person who insists on cursing those guys who have been passing him. When the hitch I liker. through his patience and perseverance, does succeed in getting i ride, there are certain things which he would do well to refrain from doing. One ol these is starting a siring of chatter. II the driver of the car wants to be talked to. he will start the conversation; otherwise, the thing to do is to keep cpiiet and not watch the speedometer. Neither should he smoke until the driver offers him a cigarette or makes it plain in some other way that he doe so I mind. One evening, a Iriend and I were picked up by «1 prosperous looking couple in a nice new c ar. I he driver did not notice at lirst that my friend was smoking, hut when he did- did he gel tough!! lie said: I )on t c ha burn those cushions, fella, or I II throw va out on yer ear. If I d known you were smokin I'd a lei ya walk in. I hat was enough for me. If I ever do start smoking, it won I he when I have just been picked up by a stranger. Hitch-hiking is lots ol fun. I he experiences of the indulger in this sport are many and varied, and it is 1 wonderful chance to study human nature. It is strange how people will talk to a sympathetic listener even if he is a perfect stranger. I have been told of blasted love affairs, family troubles, and everything else you could think of. I he experience out ol which I have got the most laughs happened to me about three years ago. I thumbed a Spaniard in a big. old, high posted I luelson. I le stopped. I jump- ed in. and said: Nice day. isn t it? lie answered: Me no spikka Ilngleesh. We rode in abject silence for over sixty miles. Hitc h hiking is a pretty good sport. Its element of danger, and its changeableness and unexpectedness make it interesting and intriguing.

I he lilt in the voices, and the gayety show we are not sorry. A casual observer might wonder why we were so happy about it all. when we are so fortunate as to be able to go to school. We are happy about it. of course, but not because we dislike school. We crave change. Youth is active, always looking for things new and different. I hree months at school and the novelty has worn off. I he routine has been too much in evidence, and fianklv we are bored. I lence. the desire for change. Syrionomous with school are classes, those creations that are the cause of a lot of work and many worries. C lasses are as individual as people, and bear analysis as careful as that we give to mankind. When we have discovered «ill the similarities and differ- ences between them, we proceed to handle them as we do our most temperamental friends. We know which instructor is prone to give surprise tests, which one will give us i term paper or something equally terrible, and which one will get side-tracked most easily. And the information docs not remain idle. lesls — every nine weeks or so wo study for them. Ami the comments and exclama- tions that go along with this studv are most enlightening. Some few fortunate souls, unruffled and undisturbed by the prospect, go about their business as if nothing were going to happen. Others, frankly worried, seek companionship in their misery, and do their studying in small but extremely lively groups. After the tests arc over, there «ire more exclamations, and interested inquiries as to who got the highest mark, and whether sixty is passing. I o pass on to the lighter side of life. No dormitory could possibly be complete with- out bull sessions of one sort or another. And the momentous problems solved are a matter of life and death at the moment. A short time later they may be completely for- gotten in the excitement of something new. hull sessions are an institution, however. Op inions are formed, likes and dislikes revealed, and before we break up we know our own mind, as well as everyone else s quite a bit better. Another dormitory institution is the spread. W’hat we would do without those mid- night feasts, so often condusive to bad dreams and nightmares, no one has yet decided. ( ertainly we would hate to be deprived of them. I lere again affairs of the universe are settled. or such relatively important things as dancing, dates, and clothes are discussed. ()r it may be extremely nonsensical chatter. Whatever it is. it keeps us busy and happy, and we certainly enjoy ourselves. Page Fifty Perhaps I he greatest fault with dormitor lile is the monolonv ol uninterrupted routine 'touth likes variety, and is seldom content to remain quiet for long. I Inis it is that so many of us go home week-ends, and sing so lustily when vacation arrives. er often, hen vacation begins to pall, we find ourselves nursing a rarcfullx bidden desire to be bar k with the kids again, where there s something to do. even il we do have to go to classes.

As Chicky became carried away by her thoughts, she reverted to an old old habit—she shut her eyes tight. Maddison and I will race over high speed roads in a blac k convertible.

It has aimed at better co operation between students and faculty, sometimes gaining it. and at other times, through inefficient or selfish motives, failing to do so. Society has taught us to suspect an organization that runs smoothly and wi I bout snags, so we feel that even though Student Government has had its storms, it lias grown strong through them. Page Sixty one Our aim is more responsible student leadership. With a goal as broad as that, many pitfalls lie between us and attainment. 1 Itrough the activities we sponsor we have been given responsibility, and opportunity for growth, and like any organization, we have attained real leadership only in a measure. I his fact is encouraging, however, because as long as any group has a lot ahead in improvement, the organization will be alive. It is self-satisfaction that is the villain of democracy. Perhaps our biggest step has been the achieving of a larger percentage of student parti- cipation in planning and carrying out social activities. I his is only one step, but it is constructive improvement — the goal of democracy. I o the Executive Board ol next year we pass the torch — winds will blow and try to extinguish it. but only through trials and struggles do we believe Student Government will succeed.

In an effort to make it more of a yearbook, and less of «1 high school publication, class prophecies were omitted. In their place we Page Sixty five Iiave included a brief personality write-up of each graduate. I lie material in the literature section was very carefully selected to represent tin best endeavors of tl ie school, and we hope it will induce pleasant memories of our life here. I bis year Yerlyn did not sponsor any money-making activities, due to the increased activity fee.

Our primary objectives are a greater responsibility in governing the student body and a closer relationship between students and faculty. Realization is and must he dependent. Page f ifty seven not upon tlie Executive Board alone, but upon the willingness of students to accept the eluti� •s as well as (lie benefits of school citizenship. However, judged in th - light of the present world struggle for demo� rati� ideals. this Student ( ■ovcrnm nt Organization among future teachers assumes a lar broader signif- icance. It is wider than the more immediate bje ctiv� s of betl«T school relationships.

We know it will do us no good to win the battle for democracy on a foreign field if we lose it at home.

On May . another Play Day was held at the University of Vermont. Lyndon was represented there also. These play days do much to establish a feeling of friendly com- petition and good fellowship between the Normal Schools. We feel that the Athletic Association plays an important part in the recreational life of Lyndon Normal School. Plirone Keysar Page Fifty-five • RCHl£RY Cl.I B I earn ( )ne: Ruth Kiillman.

'acuity Advisor For the first lime the Bird C ltd) lias made a place for itself in the Yorlyn and is very proud of the recognition accorded it. At the beginning of the year many were skeptical of this club. 1 lie first meeting last fall drew out a group of curious students: curiosity changed to sudden interest, and twenty became lul members. Based on suggestions presented to us from last year’s club we drew up a set of rules and elected our officers. Because of lack of funds the C lub s activities have been limited, but interesting. I bey include a trip to the St. Johnsbury Museum, movies. list •ning to recorded bird songs, and field trips. The interest of Miss Osgood and the cooperation of all members have created a fine spirit, and a most successful year has been the result. For the Bird Club of 1942-1943 we predict further growth and enjoyment. Marian Royce Page I'ifly-nine DRAMATICS CLl TB Wilma While ...

I'irst. the whole school program has been accelerated so as to meet the serious teacher shortage problem which now confronts Vermont. With this accelerated program has come the introduction ol a long-desired fourth year ol study. I bis year, in addition to the usual Lreshman. Junior, and Senior classes, the School has «added a Sophomore c lass as well. Fo simplify matters during this period of change, however, we have classified graduating students under the old arrangement. More than half the Senior C lass are planning to take advantage of the «accelerated program by remaining throughout the sum- mer. I hey will constitute the lirst c lass to receive degrees. Second, bec ause most of our boys «ire in the armed forces, the Sc bool lias had to drop activities ol the Mens thlctic Association. A few other organization changes have been made for comparable reasons. In the fact of all these changes we. the Yer vn Board, give vou our ictory Issue of the- orlvn. and we. the future teac hers of Vermont, look ahead....

Because our funds were limited we found it necessary to limit our program to a number of movies, hikes and field trips. The field trips were taken to nearby woods, where we watched the birds in their nat- ural environment. In spite of our lessened program the members of the Bird Club feel gratified that there has been «1 sufficient interest in the subject to keep the Club alive during these excited times.

Since the cadet teachers were essentially a part of our student body until after January 21, despite their sepa- ration from us, we have felt it appropriate to include their pictures with the respective class groups. From last summer’s Workshop came several people who have finished their credit for a third or fourth year of work. Their pictures are also included with their corresponding classes. In order that our readers may know which are regular students, which came from the Workshop, and which are cadets, we have made the distinctions in the write- ups accompanying the pictures. Because various members of our faculty have left for vacations at different times during the year, some or- ganizations had to be interrupted in their activities. Therefore some organization pictures are missing in this issue. In the hope that, despite forced changes in our ar- rangement. you will enjoy our yearbook, we give you the 1944 Vcrlyn.

Susan Hale Cowles Pane Five Margaret Ruiter Kelley Lyndon Normal School will miss Mrs. Margaret Kel- ley, who for many years has been a friendly counsellor to both faculty and students. She was an inspiration to everyone: in her devotion to high professional standards, in her keen understanding of young people, in her creative envisioning of better schools for Ver- mont’s children, and in her unselfish giving of her time and effort to make that vision a reality. We shall miss Mrs. Kelley, but her influence will still be felt. At Lyndon we shall be striving to be worthy of the great friendship that has been our possession; and, wherever a Lyndon graduate goes, a bit of Mrs. Kelley’s philosophy will be at work to make school a better place for boys and girls to live in.

We might add that she knew how to work in the classroom and laugh with us in the dorm. With such a combination of abilities we can predict a fine teaching experience for Ruthie.

We met her in Lyndonville on Washington’s birthday and she told us that she keeps from freezing to death by lean- ing'against the stove all winter. That, with an occasional jam session, seems to do the trick. She always has enough energy to dance, regardless of the weather. P. S.

Symons Gertrude Webber Bertha Young Fhe Workshop Group: Sunnier 19 B Because of the accelerated program which divides the college year into four twelve- week quarters. Lyndon opened its doors for its first summer session and found a gratifying response from all who participated. The primary purpose of the summer quarter was to allow regularly enrolled students to complete their work faster and thus give the State more beginning teachers. However, the interest of the experi- enced teachers in the field in this unusual opportunity to work toward advanced standing was so marked, that it seemed wise to set up some special courses for them. A rural-elementary workshop seemed to offer the greatest possibilities, and Mrs. Margaret Kelley of the State Department of Education, who had had previous ex- perience in this type of teaching, came to direct Lyndon’s first workshop. The fol- lowing letter from one of the Workshoppers. as the students were called, will give some idea of what was accomplished: ‘■‘rite first Lyndon Normal Workshop is over. Looking backward it does not seem as though it really was twelve weeks in length: that is one of its best recommenda- tions. “'I'he Workshop was made up of experienced teachers, all anxious to solve the problems they had met in their teaching. The first work of the summer was to share these problems and to restate them so that they would apply to more than one situation. After the problems were stated, we divided into groups according to the interests expressed. The final organization included language arts, rural education, science, and social studies. In these group meetings we learned to cooperate, to share, and to help each other solve common problems. Page Fifty-seven “Each day was varied anti interesting. I he first hour Mrs. Margaret Kelley, our director, conducted the general seminar. Frequently there was a visiting speaker and from time to time members of the Normal School faculty came in to make some contribution. The group discussions followed, and individual work rounded out the morning. In the afternoon we met in the studio for arts and crafts. We also used afternoon time for individual conferences with our consultants. “We arranged our own room, published a weekly paper, collected materials, and arranged exhibits. We participated in the social life of the school, joining with the General Education group in the Dramatics Club activities, in the assemblies, picnics, and parties. The social way of living, the informal method, and the personal con- tacts appealed to all of us. The spirit in which w_ worked and the attitu le of the group made the Lyndon Normal Workshop a very pleasant place We. the mem- bers of this first Lyndon workshop, will be better teachers because of our experience. Almost a year since the above letter was written the members of the Workshop group have heard of the passing of Mrs. Margaret Kelley, under whose splendid guidance the successful work outlined above was done . Mrs. Kelley knew most of the experienced teachers in northern Vermont, but we who worked so closely with her in the Workshop feel even more poignantly than the others how much a loss her passing has been, both to the State and to each individual teacher. The inspi- ration she gave us during that summer work we know will he one memorial, among many, to the great qualities of understanding and leadership which she possessed in full measure.

Mr. Mathevvson, our faculty advisor, suggested holding the Carnival, and was extremely helpful in making the necessary preparations. Everyone felt the Carnival was a success, as judged by the number of stamps and bonds sold. Proceeds from the booths and the street dance were used to support other worthwhile agencies. In September the Board was reorganized and continued with its sale of stamps and bonds' Knitting was again one of our activities, each class contributing money with which to buy yarn for an afghan. The Board continued with its collection for Rus- sian War Relief which had been started during the Victory Carnival. Three large boxes of useful clothing were sent and the organization received a card of thanks for them. Several students have rolled bandages at the Baptist Church; others have helped at the observation posts on Saturdays. We have enjoyed helping with the various war activities and are certain that the new members will continue working for more and more sales of stamps and bonds.

I hen. of course, there are always a few Lite strollers who enjoy the splendor ol the moonlight upon the Calm and peace ful waves. I o most people, the seashore is a plac e of relaxation and rest. I hen. there are the people who like- to spend their vacation in the- moun- tains. I hey like- lo feel close- to nature, too.

I )oKIS C III M V. | ) RIVERS NI) BROOKS I lie difference- between «1 rive-r and .1 book is not usualb obvious, but it is re-al. Both «ire- natural streams of water: the only obvious eliffere -nee- is in si e. 'l c-t 1 river, besides being larger, is usualb in .1 more distinct area. Being larger it provides energy, travel, entertainment and. in general, meets human wants. One- looks for usefulness from a river, as well he- may. because that is what experience has taught everyone to expec t. I hen. too. rivers are wide and deep, and too much alike- throughout thc-ii length to show beauty. Rivers arc- made- to serve-, and this we rarely lorget as they flow onward to salisb the whims of mankind. On the contrary, if .1 little, babbling brook decides lo dry up in hot wea- ther. or lake a different course, it does so: and not main people heed or slop it. Some people see the la-auk of the- small brook, and hear its bubbling, scurrying sounds: but too many cannot hear it saying 'For men max come and men may go. hul I go on forever . Seldom does c ivilization stop its race- to watc h shiners, tadpoles, or the- various water insects swimming over the- colored pebbles, or the little waterfalls: or the- green bullfrogs jumping in and out. Brooks arc- more secluded, and so perhaps they are not as noticeable: but they have muc h true beauty, and the rivers have little. III.1.in Fisk. i ) Pcicfc' Sixty Soron MAPI I- SUGARING Maple sugaring is many things lo many people. I� ut lias «1 special definition for me. which is not to he found in any dictionary. Sugaring is a little un- painted camp, saturated with the sweet odor of boiling sap from the maple trees surrounding it. and clouds of steam puffing out its four doors. It is ,ilso the smaller boiling pan in the corner, where light syrup is boiled down. It is the- sound of birds in the hare branches, the men and horses gathering sap. and the rushing brook with its little water wheel. It is the- little- c harred kettle extending from the- crossbar over the camp lire-. It is watching the- wooden spoon clip the thick syrupy licpncl onto the- heaping buckets ol sparkling snow, and then eating as much as I can possibly hold. Such 1 wonderful flavor? s I have said, this is my definition ol maple sugaring. I li 11 Fisk, jq TAI L TALKS At the- c lose ol d.iy in 1 lumber camp, we lincl the men seated around their camplire telling tales. Story telling seems to he- an amusing incident in the- day of 11 ir lumherjac k. I hose stories that arc- told are the- produc Is ol the- woodsman s imagination: and the- less likrh the story, the- more applause from the- audience. My father used lo work in one of these camps and lie- often tells some- of the fantastic tales lie- hoard there. One- of these, whic h I remember in particular, was the- time ol the hurricane many c-ars ago. It seems the lumbering season had just begun; and the- men were hurrying to c-rc-c I the barns for their horses. A stifl wind had begun lo blow from the- southeast, and the woodsmen were afraid of a storm. A storm at this time would prevent the completion of the- work on the barns. I lie- wind blew stronger and stronger untii a huge gale, the- strength of a hurricane, was blowing. Naturally all the men cpiit work and ran for shelter. I bat is. all the- men but my father; and he- dec idc-cl he woedd put the- side boards or. that barn against all odds. At lirst he iacc-d great opposition Irving to drive spikes against the- wind, but finally lie- developed a plan l which he would be working with the wind. I urning Iris back to the southeast, hr helcl the spike above his head in position. I he- wind caught the spike with terrific force- driving it into the- plank. After this the work progressed rapidly; and when the- hurricane was over, and the rest of the crew appeared, they found pop asleep in the- completed barns. Page Sixty I light es- 1 remember it distinctly. I bat was barb in the good obi days, around |S“‘ - isn I it f Well, lliero I was will� three hundred head of the biggest and meanest cattle you ever saw. heading towards Mexico. I pon arriving at the Rio C irande. I found that the river had swelled so miiih that .it the smallest c rossing it was impossible to get the cattle across. Seeing this. I walked about two miles bac k to a tree I remembered passing. Then came the problem of chopping it down. Doing a cowboy, the sharpest thing I had was mv spurs. Rut you cou!dn t keep me down. I proceeded to hack away at the- tree with my spurs, and after two days ol tedious work I found that I had only succeeded in gelling one eighth ol the way through the trunk. So I got mad and went back to my callIc. I here I rigged up three hundred harnesses and hitched those cattle to the tree . I let a yell out of me. and they run. they pawed, they dug. they snorted: and finally, after an hour of this, they brought the tree- clown, (the pawing caused the largest tributary of the Rio ( nande.) Well, the tree- lell whore I wanted it to -smack, across the Rio. Now. you fellows thick I hi going to say I drove those cattl e over that tree, clout you . Well. I didn t. I found a small hollow right through the center and proceeded to drive my cattle- through this. 11 went well till I reached the- other side- ol the- Rio and counted my herd. I found that I had only two-hundred and ninety five head. So back into the- hollow I went, and there I found that three head had strayed up limbs and got lost, and the- other two had fallen through knot holes and were drowned. Well, talking about your big trees. I remember when I was working out in the C anadian north woods. I was boss of lilly men. and big rugged men they were-, too. Look at me now! I in si fool eight and one-half, and weigh two hundred and seventy-three pounds. I bey c alled me l ittle- Raw . I was so small. Well, getting back to my story, the- big boss said lie- wanted a lot of good si eel timber cut. so I headed up stream to gel it. lien we got there, we picked out the- smallest tree- we could linel and started chopping. All lilt one of us chopped on the same tree, and at the- end ol two weeks we liacln t made much of an impression on that tree. I decided I'd better take a walk around the tree to see how much farther I had to go. So I packed my knapsack and started. After walking for twenty one days. I came to «1 crew of men directly opposite us and working on the same tree. I here- were one hundred and lilly of them, and they had been chopping lor the- past six months. Still the tree wasn't down. The other boss and I got together, and we figured it would be about another four or five months before the tree fell. Seven months we nt bv. and finally I had the pleasure of seeing that tree come down to earth. I his took place «it St. Dominique, and the force- of that tree, when it fell caused a good many boles and c raters. Why. this was the cause of the formation of Ml. Deloeil and Ml.

W e recognize you as our Yer- lyn adviser, as our teacher, and as our friend. In honor of your guidance and leadership, we dedicate to you. Mr. lden I. Carr, our 1947 issue of the Verlyn. Page I tea TO THE GRADUATING CLASS OF 1947: A Xegro spiritual tells us that we an climbing higher and higher.’ This quotation epitomizes the essential history of the world, the story of man’s unceasing struggle to free himself from the limitations of his physical environment, from the harsh res- traints of his fellow-men. from the inadequacies o; his own body and mind. This is a story which must not end until every in- dividual everywhere can develop all his powers to the fullest, until every individual can stand alone unstained, beautiful, true, free—truly an heir of God.” This is a high goal; difficulties beset the way to it; if men and women are to seek and attain this goal, they must have preparation, guidance, and inspiration. To provide these be- comes of necessity the responsibility and the opportunity of the teacher. It is a pleasure to welcome you. the graduates of 1947. as sharers in this ever-challenging task, to the end that each of us may be able to say. like Knowledge in the famous morality play. Everyman, I will go with thee and be thy guide. In thy most need to be by thy side. In a more personal way. I have counted it a privilege and a joy to be with you. to watch your talents bourgeon and your horizons widen, to share with you the countless incidents, in class and out, from which the fabric of college life is woven, to ponder the inescapable fact that the memories our relationship has wrought are inextricably and eternally bound up in our lives and. with them, perhaps unseen and unrealized, thoughts too deep for tears. ALDEN J. CARR. Page I hrec WE HONOR The Verlyn Board, as well as all the alumni and students of Lyndon Normal School, this year wish to pay especial tribute to Miss Eliza C. Allen, our first principal. We recall with pride that it was she who brought our in- stitution into being and guided it during its early years. We are happy to present the following interesting and inspiring message from her: To Alumni of Teacher Training classes, Lyndon Institute, and State Normal School. Lyndon Center, Greetings: In September of 1913 when I took charge of Teacher Training at Lyn- don Institute, six girls made up the class and. because of the limited number, I probably remember those girls better than the members of some of my lar- ger. later classes. We had one room in the old Institute building and in those days our physical equipment would no doubt be considered meager. Miss Clara Eastman of the Institute faculty taught the girls English. Need I say more of their training in that subject? Miss Grace Cushman gave them sewing lessons and Miss Sarah Packard taught cooking. The sewing and cooking rooms in the basement of the Institute had been newly equipped and were quite modern and convenient for those days. Because of the smallness of my group, and also because I thought I might sometime be in a position where I would have to teach those subjects. I trotted along and took cooking and sewing with the girls. We were fortunate in having the Center School, the Lyndonville Grad- ed School, the one at the Corner, and not too remote rural schools for obser- vation and practice purposes. Because of small numbers I could sometimes take my entire flock to visit a school. On one such expedition, though it may not have been this first year, we walked “cross-lots” over a hill back of the Institute, and were caught in the rain. Since we arrived during the noon hour to find the building locked (no hot lunches then), we took shelter under a hut of branches that had been put up by the boys in a corner of the fence. I think our outer garments were hung about the schoolroom to dry when once we were inside. I have never seen the new Institute building nor have I visited the Normal School, but I am sure our beginnings would seem primitive by com- parison with the present set-up. Never again did ! have such a small class as the first one. Summers 1 was haunted by the fear that not enough students would appear in the fall to make a proper class, but sometimes so many came that we were fairly bursting at the seams. Lor a part of two years Miss Susan Burridge of Ran- dolph was my able helper. When it was decided in 1921 to make the course a two-year one Mrs. Harriet M. Ide was appointed as my assistant and she and I. with the girls, took up our abode in Sanborn I louse, which had been vacated by the “Aggie” boys of other days. We '•till had classes at the Institute but it was a tempta- tion to stay at the dormitory with small groups. We had about twenty girls. I have no recollection of being called principal of a normal school. 1 think we were simply a two-year Teacher Training Course. Mrs. Ide worked out a very definite schedule of alternate classwork, observation, and practice teaching for the girls. Page hour I have a vivid recollection of the chill in those dormitory halls. It was sometimes my duty to lock up for the night and I made mv beat half ex- pecting to be grabbed by a prowler in the darkness. There were three outside doors in my part of the house. by we didn’t have well lighted halls I have no idea. Heating 01 such an ark must have been a problem, especial!v to our first janitor, who flitted after a week or two. New ear’s night I was sitting up in bed with an attack of asthma when Mrs. Ide burst into my room announcing. “Eliza Allen, the Institute is burning!’ My brilliant reaction was. “Are you sure?” She was right. Most of my own books and cherished equipment col- lected through the years were gone. Lists of classes and group pictures of my girls were burned. With records and pictures destroyed it has been diffi- cult for me to place the girls in their proper years and I have not always been able to give them the help they needed for securing positions. 1 think about a hundred girls graduated from the course in my time. From January first. 1922. we led a hectic life at Sanborn House. Miss Pride took over the office for the Institute, and I graduated to a bookcase in a bedroom ! Castleton generously sent us some reference books for the use of the class. Some of the Institute classes met in Sanborn House and Mr. Seaver coached some of the mathematics students in our dining-room after school hours. In spite of difficulties and crowded conditions, we decided to try to get our graduates back for a reunion February 22. as the girls who were teaching would be free that day. Shortly before this reunion the Barton Training class visited ns. and in addition to class work we had a dress re- hearsal of a very simple health play that the girls were to give for the reunion. On the twenty-second only about twenty girls came, partly. 1 think, on account of weather and road conditions. One of the purposes of this meeting was to stimulate a desire for more and better training, and I was expecting Miss Katherine Angesin. helping teacher, to give an inspirational talk, but due to a misunderstanding she was not prepared and spoke only briefly. Mr. Mathewson and Superintendent Daniels, always Rocks of Gib- ralter. did their best for me. On shaking knees and braced against a front pew in the Baptist Church. I pled with the girls to come back for a second year of training. That was mv swan song as far as Lyndon Training classes was con- cerned. I think I never met my classes again, though I outlined work and corrected papers from my bed for a short time. I left Lyndon C entei on March 25. 1922. Mrs. Ide carried on alone until the end of the year. Mv work with Teacher Training classes at Lyndon Institute was a joy and it is a source of pride to me that one of “my girls .

It is a day in which the work, the planning, the joy. the hopes of school are all added up and com- pleted. To each of us this brings a different answer, but to all of us it is the finish. Graduation is the day when we grasp what we have gained and step out to put it to use. We, as students, have obtained theory; now we, as teach- ers. must put this theory into reality. We not only will keej) on seeking to improve our minds but will be striving to build the minds of those whom we endeavor to teach. As we endeavor to live a good life, a full life, an abundant life, so we. in turn, will build those minds under us. The Great Teacher Himself said, I am come that they might have life more abun- dantly. so should we go to our chosen fields. To be better prepared. I suggest that you seek the truth at all times—“ .... know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. Howard Walbridge.

President Vice-President Secretary-T reasurer Adviser Barbara Walling Flora Merriam Betty Taylor Miss Bradshaw A Sport For Every Girl. Every Girl A Sport” As is customary, the W oman's Athletic Association has conducted the extra curricular program of athletic activities during the college year. The women students were divided into two teams called the Green” and the Gold : and most of the sports were conducted on an intramural basis with competition between the two teams. The high spot of the fall season was the annual Burke Mountain Climb in which the students and faculty member- participated. In the softball Tournament, also held in the fall, the Green Team was victorious. The winter season saw 11s plowing through a snowy Winter Carnival with the Gold team evening things up. Plans for a Bad- minton tournament have been made, and a Basketball game between the two teams. Thus another year has seen the W. A. A. taking an important part in the extra curricular activities on our campus. Page f orty Seven GLEE CLUB President Flora Merriam Adviser Librarian Thesba Johnston Miss Lucille Charron The Lyndon Normal School Glee C lub has had a successful and enjoy- able year under the direction of Miss Charron. The club was responsible for a mirth-provoking assembly program in which members pantomimed favorite old songs. In addition we have on several occasions provided the music for assemblies. Caroling at Christmas time, the annual program be- fore the Lyndon Woman’s Club, and our Easter concert have brought further credit to Miss Charron and those participating. I he (dee t lub assisted the Vcrlyn staff with the Pop Concert. To conclude the year’s work, the Glee Club sang at the baccalaureate exercises. Pw e I'orly .Vine FRIENDS OF THE FRESHMEN COMMITTEE The Friends of the Freshmen Committee is largely responsible for helping new freshmen feel at home when they come here to school. This is done with the aid of students who act as “big sisters” to the freshman girls. These “big sisters” are assigned by this committee as soon as someone enrolls and are responsible for answering any question which their little sisters” may have before and after they arrive here. Letters from “big sisters” are already being sent to enrolled girls. This committee plans our Open House program with the aid of a faculty member. This year's Open House was held on hebruary 14, with a large attendance.

Throughout the year the Press Club has issued at least one weekly press re- lease. and sometimes special items have been prepared. I hcse have appeared in several of Vermont’s newspapers. In addition, the Press Club has de- veloped a school paper known as The Echo and has prepared several issues, which have been well received.
