He sends his wedding cake with the message that he has no use for it. Later he himself appears among the merry-makers and shows by his sincere manner that he repents his harshness and wishes to become one of them. The scene closes with an old-fashioned reel in which all participate. I 0 those Seniorgirls, who with Miss Baright, spent many weary afternoons in rehearsal and to lNIrs. lllarshall who furnished the musical part of our program, we owe one of the pleasantest evenings ever spent at the Normal School. The assembly hall was crowded with an audience of about four hundred and fifty friends and relatives, who, if we are to believe their own statements, thought this year's play had quite eclipsed all attempts of former classes. The part of John Perrybingle was cleverly taken by our class president and the love scenes of Dot and John thrilled the heart of every Normal girl Cwith the possible exception of those who had been lucky enough to attract male escorts for the eveningj. Caleb Plummer and his blind daughter, Bertha, brought tears to our eyes-but the mystery is-how did the usually active Helen Moore manage to keep quiet for so long a time and get around the stage so skillfully without damaging any of the property? CCongratulations on your training, Miss Barightj. lllrs. Fielding made the most of a minor part but let us hope no one noticed her hysterical giggle and poor attempt to smother a grin when she came forth with that pathetic appeal, Carry me to my grave. lllarion Sisson made a splendid young lover and both she and Nellie lVhite did their parts naturally and well. Our happy, kind and good friend, Bliss Howard Chmll was suddenly transformed and became such a mean, cruel, hard-hearted Tackleton that we have approached her with something like awe and wonder ever since. Florence Noble, in the character of an English po1'ter, won great applause for her clever impersonation and Olive Couch and Ida Boehm were, like all good children, seen and not heardf, No one could have recognized in that ludicrous face and figure of Tilly Slowboy, our own petite lllarief' lYith Tilly came mirth and laughter and I believe that every mother heart in the audience rebelled at her clumsy treat- ment of the baby-a good child fha! never cried once during the whole performance. Last but not least, was the cricket, lifting its voice in song but leaving much to the imagination of the audience. As the local Herald announced, in big headlines, the Young lYomen Very Cleverly Portrayed Their Roles, and for once we give the newspaper credit for getting it straight.

NORTH ADAMS NORMAL SCHOOL, NORTH ADAMS NORMAL- NINETEEN FIFTEEN 52 NORMALOGUE T the first meeting of the Glee Club, where officers for the year were chosen to fill the vacancies, only a few of the old members appeared. At a second meeting a number of seniors and juniors were invited to join the organization. VVe were unusually fortunate in securing the services of a special student, Lillian Steele, who, after a four years' course in music at Syracuse University, came to the North Adams Normal school to study the teaching of music that she might become a supervisor. Immediately the Glee Club sought her out and unanimously voted her leader and pianist. To her the club owes much of its success. Twice each week, at the call, the members flocked from cellar and attic for practice. Former members will remember the rehearsals with loo up and down the scale, by thirds, with crescendo and diminuendo and with what infinite pains the many sounds were subjugated and tamed. On April 3, we were invited to assist at a musical given at the Cbngregational Chapel,where we nobly held our own with other more popular musicians who also took part. With a bold front,but quaking heart, on May QI, we again appeared in public. Our program consisted of the following: A violin solo by lilrs. lilarshall. A piano solo by lNIiss Steele. In The Time of Rosesi'-Double Trio. A Lullabyf' iiThe Jay is a Jovial Bird. '6The Swallow. The Spring Beautiesfi Hark! Hark! the lark. H Murmuring Zephyrsf' 'iSchubert's Serenade. Enchantmentf' Even Bravest Heart lilay Swell. Christmas Stockings. Holy Night. Gypsy Queenf, There is a notion that the pursuit of music, owing to its exciting character is prejudicial to health and longevity. Such a result to the members of the Glee Club would be owing to the pitiless conditions which have been imposed upon us by our heavens. Realizing our audience's intentions were for the best we heartily forgave them in their clamor for incessant encores. This concert, like many a previous one given by the Glee Club, proved to be most entertaining and successful. No one denies the supreme merits of the artists in the Glee Club and none but the uninterested or the envious can grudge us our distinguished popularity. To Miss Searle, who encouraged us when difficulties arose, we owe a world of thanks and we will always remember her interest in the club. Ida BI.

We will never forget those moments when everything else was forgotten but the game. Many times when we had gone into class tired and down-hearted, we soon found that there was nothing that would refresh a person like a good fast game of basket ball! Last year we played many games against the Seniors and although we were beaten, we were told we possessed great possibilities, which were surely shown in the games against the Alumni when we were successful and when a few of our class aided the teachers in defeating the Seniors in the only game they lost. This year much enthusiasm was shown when two teams were organized as the Bows and Arrows, Terese Burns serving as Captain for the Bows, and hlari- etta Howard for the Arrows There was great rivalry between them, although always in the best spirit. In the contest in class work the Arrows,' scored the larger number of points, although the Bows always came out first in Regular Basket., Ball. The big events of the season were the Junior-Senior llleet, where the Seniors won, of course, and the two games against the Drury High School girls, in which the Seniors, made up of the Misses lllarietta Howard, Terese Burns, Lauretta lllartin, Helen Cashmore, Helen Moore and Emma Dewey, beat with the scores of Q5-19 and 6-1. lVho can forget those anxious faces as the referee would call, 7-6, favor of Normal. Play! lVhen on they would go as the spectators cheered and en- couraged tl1e1n and always they were victorious. As we leave this school and go forth to our chosen work, let us hope that we may carry with us this same spirit, which will help us to win life's battles. ,Ml THE SUNNY S E j I XA' xy . i J 4 + M --i fra..

The architect who drew the plans knew his business. These buildings are inhabited by the faculty and more than 150 girls. The first buildings were opened in 1897, and cost approximately 5lS150,000. Taconic hall, where the prisoners sleep and eat, was opened in 1905, and set the state back about 5B50,000. The normal school is famous for the large number of young men that manage to walk past it on a Sunday afternoon, a basketball team, a school yell, a school song, 100 or more girls and its absolute disregard of the masculine sex. Owing to the commanding situation of the principal's residence, from which the front windows of the dormitory can be seen with but very little effort, flirting has never proven very popular with tl1e students of the school. hlen are a species that the authorities of the school have no use for. They are about as welcome at Taconic hall Csuch is the nalne of the building where the young ladies are domiciledl as a German submarine off Liverpool harbor. The camel has a much better Chance of getting through the needle's eye than a man has of getting into the dormitory. Every time anything wearing trousers appears at the door of Taconic hall, Principal llfurdock orders out tl1e reserves and gets the rapid fire guns into position. Every once and so often the young ladies indulge in wild dissipation. This takes the form ofa dance tendered by the faculty and the girls spend an existing evening dancing among themselves. However, they are allowed a certain amount of relaxa- tion and freedom. They are permitted to go down to Main street between the hours of 4- and 5.30 o'clock every afternoon: but woe unto the girl that glances either to the right or the left, for the faculty is usually down town at that time and nothing has ever been known to escape it. It is rumored that there are several good looking girls at the school, but through the careful efforts of the principal they have never been seen. Just how they get their fresh air nobody seems to know but it is understood that the air is brought in to them. Through an overthought on the part of those in charge men are allowed to attend the commencement exercises each year. This condition of affairs may be remedied soon, however, and it is doubtful if even fathers will be permitted within the sacred gates. At least they will be forced to show their credentials. In spite of the above handicaps, or because of them, graduates of the school are always in great demand. They ought to be good. They practice on the pupils at Mark Hopkins school all through their course. This brings up the question, lllhy pick on Mark Hopkins?

It portrayed events which have occurred along the Trail from the beginning of the seventeenth century to the present time. In the first scene, The Spirit of the IVaves, a large number of the Normal School Juniors took part. Dressed in shades of blue, to represent the colors of water, when the spirit of Greylock paused in the center of the green, the Spirits of the IVaves, led by the Spirit of the IVaters appeared from the river edge and surrounded her, advancing and retiring in exact representation of waves. Finally they receded, and Greylock, rising higher and higher, until he stood on the top of the slope at the back of the Pageant green, looked back for a moment, and disappeared. The following episodes, in the order in which they appeared, represented, The Passing of the First Indian to the Higher Slopes, The First Settler of the Trail,', The Coming of Lieutenant Catlin and lNIen from Deerfield to Build Fort lIIassa- chuesttsf' The Coming of the Early Settlers, The Coming of the Quakers, The Revolution, The Call to Bennington, The Slab City, The Visit of Nathaniel Hawthorne in 1838,', 'CA VVilliams College Commencement, The Visit of Governor Andrews to North Adams in 1863 and The Return of Troops from the Civil IVar. The pageant was closed with one of the most beautiful of the episodes, The Grand Finale. In this, the Normal Faculty and members of the school represented the Spirit of Education. The scheme of color was a complex complementary one and very brilliant as seen against the yellow-green back-ground of the grass and trees. The Normal color, yellow, was chosen with the thought of completing the cycle of light when the school pennant should be used with the national flag. In the procession, a student, wearing a silver helmet and dressed in blue and white, typifying truth and purity, mounted on a horse, symbolizing vision and pro- gress, went forward carrying the state flag. Principal F. F. lNIurdock and Hon. C. Q. Richmond, a member of the state board of education followed, carrying the school banner on which was lettered Normal School, with a single star for further decora- tion. The use of the star on the school banner corresponded in thought to its use on the state flag, the school being one of the normal schools within the state, while the state, one of forty-eight within the union. Then came the members of the facility wearing scholastic robes of brown, purple, or green with stoles of the school color. The brown symbolized wisdom, the purple, loyalty, and the yellow green, fruitfulness and hope. The students followed, dressed in white with caps and sashes of the school color and carrying yellow sun-flowers, symbolizing adaptability. The President of the Senior class carried the class banner in purple and gold, while the blue of the Junior banner corresponded to the blue of the costume of the mounted student riding in advance of the procession. NORMALOGUE 61 Following the Spirit of Education, were the citizens living along the Trail who came from other lands. They brought as their offerings that which they considered the best gift their C0llllllllIllll6S gave to the world. As the different communities entered, they eneireled the green, and grouped about the towns along the trail. The Mohawk Trail Beautiful then entered, wearing the eolors of the wild flowers. They crossed the green and stood on the slope at the back. All the participants of the pageant slowly marched along the Trail Beautiful and disappeared from sight. No more beautiful back ground eould have been ehosen for such a presentation than Hoosac Valley Park, with its towering hills, the glint of water through the trees, and the gentle slope over which the first Indian passed on his way to reach the higher slopes beyond. The whole pageant was a splendid sueeess and the Normal students will always remember it as one of the happiest events of their Normal life. Anna C. Hennessy.

RESPONSE Noble, dignified and accomplished seniors-we the humble members of the junior class, wish to express our thanks and appreciation for the compliments, advice and noble inspirations which you have just bestowed upon us. YYe feel sure that by following your instructions we will reach the goal you have already attained. You have accomplished great ends. In athletics you can scarcely be surpassed, while in dramatics you do equally well, but thel'e remains one thing in which we feel you have shown still greater ability, and that is the art of millinery. If you still continue your developments in that direction, the world will no longer turn toward Paris for her styles of grace and beauty, but all eyes will seek the rural school teacher as she wends her way along the country road, dressed in her plain, adorable hat which shows training in art and sensibility, and all the world will follow her example of supreme taste. YYe thank you for the advice given us concerning the wearing away of the teachers' f pencils at training school. llhis shows the sense of economy you have achieved and we hope that next year the pencil bills will be greatly reduced. Seniors, we have watched you going and coming from classes with deep interest and wonder. You have gone cheerfully on day by day and it has been your bright and happy faces that have often helped us over the obstacles that have often obstructed our way, yet we have seen you with your hand on the knob of the door about to enter the school-room at training school shivering from head to foot, trying to gain the confidence to enter. Can you imagine the ghastly feelings that have enthralled our humble souls? But when again we see you, some of your faces appear radiant with joy and show a look of pride as if to say, YYell, I have imparted another inkling of knowledge into the heads of the future YYorld Blake-rs and now I'm happy while the faces of others say It is over and I'm thankful. However, it all has had a mean- ing to us and we hope that the former sentiments will be yours in your future days of work. Today, you part from us. There is no power in this wide world to part our souls. .Xvail not time nor space, nor pain, for love is unconditioneclf' lYe cannot express tl1e sorrow with which we see you go. Your smiling faces which welcomed us as juniors and which are so soon to be ushered into the great school of life, will not be here to bid us godspeed when we too shall go. r V NORMALOGUE 65 Next year strangers will fill our places, while we shall occupy the class you are vacating todayg and we only hope that we can welcome them as cordially as we were received by you. WVe accept the name of Seniors willingly and by loyalty to our school and diligent Work will try and prove worthy of the name. .

Indeed, in years hence we expect the students of this normal school to be studying as a part of their elective work the History of the most illustrious class ever graduated from this institution, in order to get ideas to help them pursue their work more bravely and earnestly. Two years ago next September, sixty very bright pupils entered this school. The Seniors gave us a hearty welcome, yet each one of ns remembers the almost ghastly stories they related of the many hardships we were to meet. But with resolute steps we trod our triumphant way, and found each succeeding task a mere pebble in our path, due most assuredly, to the bright and energetic minds we all possessed. Only two weeks had elapsed since our entrance to this institution when the wild news broke forth that the annual reception was to be given. This, we learned was for the purpose of getting acquainted and also to assist the faculty to judge our ap- pearance in future society. Of course we were mothered by the Seniors. They took us on their already burdened shoulders and persisted in introducing us to the whole faculty, who gazed on us with looks of wonder and surprise at the supreme dignity and poise with which we held ourselves throughout the entire evening. The appearance of the Seniors the following day was somewhat startling. iVhat can be the meaning of these stiff necks, aching backs and trembling hands! was the cry heard on every side. Dr. Crawford must be summonedf' Little did wc dream that all this had been caused by the unusual dignity which they had tried to assume in order that they might keep pace with us Juniors. Our eminent social status was now established and we were informed that the next historic event for us was to give the Seniors a Hallowe'en Party. lVe considered this a rather mild affairg but our plans, though simple to us, appeared amazingly intricate to our guests, for they, evidently, had never attended anything of quite so unique a nature, but nevertheless, they possessed enough docility to maintain themselves creditably during the evening. This surely proved a remarkable test of our ability to impart knowledge to the hungering masses. After suffering a few weeks from close confinement and hard study, the news was gently broken that we were to have another very important social affair. YVho can forget the astonished looks that covered our faces when we were told that men were to be allowed to come! Yes, real men were to be invited. Bleu who must possess refinement, high ideals, keen intellect and especially, great poise and case of manner. A heavy sigh swept over the room. Wihere were we to find such paragons? ivould it be possible that there could be such persons who would be brave enough to ever go through the trying ordeal of meeting the gaze of the entire faculty drawn up in reception array, and still show perfect ease and enjoyment? But if you will believe Q .fw- 68 NORMALOGUE it, some of the braver members of the class resolved to try. Ivhat a hustle and bustle ensued! Dust was brushed from the highest books of etiquette and often a dialogue was repeated between two girls to see whether the effect would be favorable or not. At last the evening came in all its splendor. And normal there had gathered All its beauty and studentry, And bright the lights shone o'er many maidens and few menf' Many a girl's heart beat with lively hopes and expectations at the thought that per- haps on this very occasion she might meet her future prince, tl1e hero of her dreams, the master of her fate. W After a long and tedious entertainment we found there was still a half hour left, during which every girl must get at dance with every man present. Now it would take a very bright mathematician to figure out how this was to be done. Given: One half hour: fourteen anxious girls to one forlorn man. Find: The time for intro- duction, dancing and furtive glances. How well we succeeded, we will leave to your fertile imaginations. But hush! hark! a deep sound strikes like a rising knell! Did ye not hear it? No. 'Twas but the wind, Ur the car rattling o'e1' the stony street. On with the dance! let joy be unconfinedg No sleep till morn when Youth and Pleasure meet. To chase the glowing hours with flying feet. But hark! that heavy sound breaks in once more! It is the great clock pealing out the hour of ten, and looks of pain and regret passed over our faces as we stood aside and watched the poor, tired and depressed gentlemen drag their weary feet through slowly closing doors. Then we all retired for the night to dream only of the dazzling glamor of the ball-room. During the spring we planted at class tree which seemed to contain the spirit of the hands which planted it, for it grew and thrived remarkably, as the class of 1915 did and we expect ever will. Our gardens also seemed to possess this same tendency to push upward and onward to the highest possible goal. In .Iunc we all parted for a happy vacation and all hoped to meet again in Sep- tember, but upon returning we were disappointed to learn that some of our members had left us. Nevertheless, we began our Senior year full of great hopes. Our first days of teaching were full of thrilling experiences. Very calmly and sedately we entered the various school-rooms to begin our professional duties. At first we were greatly impressed with innocent looks of our victims, who sat within their seats gazing at us with the air that a woman possesses when she casts her first vote. But e'er long t.he scene was somewhat changed and the children began to show fondness for their new teacher. One of our number recalls the blushes that came over her angelic countenance when a pupil expressed his thanks for her assistance by saying, Thank you, sweetheart, Gee! but I wish I was older! A look of scorn N o R M ix 1. o o U if: gg gg fm was his only reply to such an ardent wisl1. Other remarks such as, Say, what an peachy little wife she would make! or Gosh! but she's stiff! often reached our ears as we passed quietly along the aisles, but we pretended to be entirely oblivious of them. Tl1us early in our careers we would be school-teachers were brought in contact with romances. The marvelous success of the Senior play, The Cricket on the Hearth given in April led us to believe that instead of going through the trying experiences of meeting formidable superintendents we would have the unprecedented privilege of inter- viewing debonair stage directors from many parts of thc world. Thus far, however, the expected notifications for our appearance before the glimmering foot-lights have not arrived. The Glee Club Concert rendered the middle of lNIay formed a fitting climax to the events of the year. The rest of our History as yet is untold Wihat it will merit, none can behold, These days of our school life we cannot forget, But ever remember till life's sun is set. Today from our teachers and classmates so true, YVe part with a lingering and tender adieu, And go forth to mingle in life's busy fray, Wiith hope that our efforts may gladden the way. lllarietta C.

Had not science come to tl1e rescue, I verily believe the treasury of the class of 1915 would have been depleted by a sum sufficient to purchase suitable flowers for the obsequies of the class prophet, whose promising young life would otherwise have been brought to an untimely end. The most wonderful scientific invention of the twentieth century is the Spectro- horoscope, an adaptation of the reaction of chemicals combined with the ultra-violet rays and electrical vibrations. No intimation of the existence of this machine has been heretofore given to the public as its inventor, Herr Von Spitzburger, did not intend to exploit it until the European war was ended. Hearing of my deplorable condition, in the interests of humanity he offered to demonstrate the wonderful pro- phetic ability of the Spcctrohoroscope. On April 7, 1915, I visited him in his laboratory and told him what I knew of all my classmates, their habits, peculiar characteristics, temperaments, faults, friends, tendencies, and recreations. A whir of wheels, a scintillating display of multi- colored electric bulbs, a hazy mist gradually enveloping the spectrohoroscope, and the foretelling of the future of our class president, Helen Illingworth, was begun. The shelves of the laboratory were crowded with vials filled with different chemicalsg the professor took one labeled Vivacity and poured a good lneasure into the hopper of the machineg also a small quantity of Seriousness, a plethora of Joviality, a dash of Mischievousness, a modicum of Dignity, and the partial contents of some vials whose labels my friendship for Helen will not permit me to disclose. He charged the content of the machine with an electrical voltage of Twenty Years of Experience, and through a fiuorescent screen exposed it to the ultra-violet rays of Adversity. A short period of waiting, a turning of a spigot, a phosphorescent stream of fragrant liquid which filled a small vial, and Helen Illingworth as she will be in 1935 was before me, needing only the chemical analysis of the professor to translate its meaning to you and to me.

High up on both sides were the mountains with their towering forests, their outcrops of limestone. And oh, the beauty of the river below! Presently the train stopped and the better to watch tl1e stream I stepped to the rear platform. Here I found that so circular was the course of the train that with little exertion I could have shaken hands with the engineer who sat calmly eating his dinner. Just below his window, on the engine, were painted in large gilt letters H. T. and IV. Truly the train and trainmen lived up to the name for all looked, Hungry, Tired and lVeary. As the t1'ain, with befitting reluctance, took up its interrupted journey, the hungry engineer having enjoyed his dinner, I turned to enter the car for by this time it had grown cool and I was afraid of the gout and rheumatiz. Crash! ! I fell forward. All grew dark. Around my head were myriads of stars,-one especially bright must have been Mars. Had the way been found to the great planet? If so, Mr. Smith's prophecy had come true sooner than we thought. All became blank. The sun shining upon me at last scattered the darkness. Gradually I became aware that I was in a tent. The flaps had blown back and I could see girls of all ages marching past. The sight carried me back to the days of my teaching, days long since gone forever. But why mourn? Had I not my sufficient competency in other words, 1ny pension? VVas I not as happy as any autumnal maiden could expect to be? But hark! IVhat familiar sound was that? God Send us lNIen- Surely that was Helen lNIallery's alto leading the song. Could it have been possible she still hopefully sang her favorite song? I lifted myself to see. True enough there was Helen standing on a stump, beating time, her illum- inated face showing she had beaten Father Time in the game of Life for he had forfeited the right to wrinkle her dear brow. IVhy standing on a stump? Could it be she was still trying to grow tall? Listen! She was coming toward the tent. VVould she know me? Good morning, I do hope you are comfortable, she said softly, is there any- thing you want? Ah! She did not know me. I never could beat time. Good morningf, I replied, could you tell me where I am-? Margaret! she exclaimed. My voice had revealed tl1e me,', whom the wrinkles and gray hair had dis- guised. Long indeed, did we talk over old times. IIelen had fought hard for the cause and had been rewarded by having been elected governor of one of our new states. Great was my anxiety, she concluded, when the bill for the taxation of eats was up. NOIIINI-A-IIOGUE v 75 Then it is you I have to thank that there is no tax on my poor, stray felines, I exclaimed gleefully. Don't thank me, thank the cause, she replied, all our women worked as hard as I did against that bill and to make the State a 'dry one' which was even harder. And did you desert teaching? I asked. I could not wait for my pension. The fight for 'Rights' was too interesting. Uld age has made me take to this camp life, for which, as a girl, I longed. All my little girl friends are invited up for the summer. You cannot imagine what pleasure it gives them and myself, this freedom among the hills. As soon as I was able to wander about, after my fall from the train, I discovered a stall bar. Could' it be Helen was still stretching? Also an open air stage. Alas! Mallery's minstrels still in vogue? For four never-to-be-forgotten weeks I remained with Helen. In that time I learned more about suffrage than I ever knew before. Reluctantly, I continued my interrupted journey, but not without the sincere wish that good luck and good fortune might dance attendance upon her for many, many years to come. ' Zllargaret Stuart.

To Mr. Smith: All left over lesson plans and uncorrected written lessons as a nucleus for next yearis work. Also, our heartiest appreciation of all the funny stories with which he has lightened our labors and impressed historical and geographical facts upon our reluctant memories.

Second, The seats of honor in the hall, without the privileges of packing suit- cases, remodelling gowns, or reciting lessons-mentally-during chapel. Third, the right to pick flowers and to carry home tomatoes and pumpkins from the school gardens next fall: provided, the heavens and the city of North Adams furnish water enough to keep said tomato and pumpkin vines moistened.

Tomorrow is the day of parting, and the paths of the classes of 1915 and 1916 will be, indeed,separated. You will he here to- gether for another happy year, while we go out, we know not where. For Man proposes, But God disposes. How could we have passed through the year without your assistance? You have filled up the front seats in the assembly hall, which we would have been obliged to occupy, had you not been here. You have sung in the Glee Club, thereby helping to make it a fine success. You have delightfully entertained us with music on different mornings during the year. You have willingly patronized our games and our plays. Indeed, all the memories of the year we have spent with you will always be happy and glad ones. Now, Juniors, before saying farewell to you, we wish to give you a few kindly words of advice. In the first place, if you wish to save your eye-sight and your money by not burning midnight oil, cut out every picture in every magazine you peruse during the coming vacation. Preserve them carefully to use for various things next year, espe- cially, your Authors' Books. Second, commit as few solecisms in and out of classes as you can. because they will surely be put down in your Class Book and also on those yellow slips we all like so much. Third, do not try blufiing too often, because sometimes even General Bluff meets his lVaterloo. Fourth and last, Do your best and leave the rest! 1Vhat's the use of worry? Firm endeavor stands the test More than haste and hurryg Rich rewards will come to him Who works on with smiling vimf, VVe fervently hope that you will on all occasions profit by our good example and conduct yourselves in a manner befitting the Seniors of North Adams Normal School. Our last word of farewell is: May happiness and success crown the class of 1916! illargaret M. Carolan. + + + + + if + + + + + + + + + + + 4 2?

The familiar associates, the lessons we have learned with difficulty, the new friends we have gained may all be forgotten by some, but perhaps the one thing which will be remembered by us all throughout our lives will be our class day and the planting of the ivy. Among other things the delicate, beautiful, clinging ivy symbolizes friendship and as it sends out its tiny tendrils to every part of the bare wall and becomes at once its life-long friend, so let us remain friends throughout the rest of our livesg for as Emerson says, The only way to have a friend is to be one. To us who are leaving, the ivy also symbolizes other features. The kind acts which we have done for our friends, which at the time see111ed to us mere nothings, have indeed grown into things of beauty, and as the years go by we shall be able to realize more and more, That there is nothing so kingly as kindness. Again, just as the roots of the ivy go deeper and deeper into the ground, just as the tendrils reach out in all directions, may our love for each other grow stronger and more extensive. The love of our schoolmates and teachers, the self-sacrificing acts are also brought to our minds by the beautiful ivy. Another virtue which the clinging ivy symbolizes is faith. For does it not show a faith in that to which it clings? Thus we learn to have faith, that we may be able to better those with whom we come in contact. lllay we always remember Abraham Lincoln's words, Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith as to the end dare to do our duty. So, dear friends and schoohnates, as we plant the ivy, we ardently hope that in future years it may grow to adorn the walls of our Alma hlaterg and that all may enjoy its cool, sweet, freshness in summer, its ruddy warmth in the autumn and that whenever those who follow in our paths behold the vine's delicate beauty they may be reminded of our class which will ever remain as faithful as the gentle clinging ivy.

My dear, You have no idea how surprised I was to arrive in North Adams and find you 'fconspicuous by your absence, especially, after your faithful promise to meet me there. However, I forgave you when your telegram arrived. was sorry to hear of your illness, and am now attempting to grant your request for a full account. There is so little to say that you do not already know, that I'm afraid my letter will be short and sweet. Of course, I saw all the girls: you know about them because you hear from them, so there is no need of wasting good space talking about them. As to the banquet, it was given in true Taconic Hall style, you know all about it, be- cause we had two, while we were at school. Just picture to yourself the meeting upstairs: the clanging of the dinner gong, pounded upon by an industrious Junior: the march to the gym: the two rows of white aproned girls, waiting at the foot of the stairs: the long tables set with yellow and white: the round tables for the faculty: the class banners ranged around the walls: the songs, the toasts: etc., etc., in other words just bring back to mind a picture of eleven years ago when we were one of the aforesaid industrious Juniors and there is nothing more to be said: for this one was exactly the same. To the graduating class we gave the little carts instead of balls, but that is a detail. After the luncheon some of our girls gathered on the front porch and before we knew it we were back in dorm days. Really it was remarkable how little of those days had been forgotten. 'K The craziest things had still stuck. The things that seemed to remain mostly in the mind of our dear old house presi- dent were the things that concerned her most while she was there-such as relay races in the long, third floor corridor, when flying feet tripped over the grass rug, and great was the fall thereof, incidentally, great the racket: slamming doors in study hour: pitched battles when water or pillows flew thick and fast: unearthly screams at unearthly hours, and so on, you know them all. Then someone mentioned the telephone bell that shrilled out its warning from the first floor when the uproar became too great. I laugh now, when I think of its effect upon the melee: how after a second of flying feet, nothing could be seen but closed doors, and silence reigned supreme. Of course we laughed over the things of which the world knew not, or rather, we hoped it knew not, when the quotation, There was a sound of revelry by night, would have been most appropriate, except that usually a drawn curtain and three layers of couch covers over the window, two layers of couch covers over the door and a coat in the crack stifled the sounds almost successfully. Add to this an expert hushcr in the person of a conscience-stricken girl: couches and chairs ranged care- fully along the wall: lower light dropped and muffled with a turkish towel, eats spread out in tempting C?l order in the middle of the floor, and the scene is laid for an old fashioned mid-night spread. The sounds so carefully stifled were the SQ NORMALOGUE beating of a fudge spoon, voices in heated discussion as to the fitness of white glycerine for use in greasing a dish Cbutter being lackingj, requests for the peanut butter-or the roast pork-and eternal giggles. Then came the moments of stopped hearts, hair on end, frightened awe, and vows of never again . Why? We thought we heard someone. But it was always a false alarm. Mr. Jones is still in charge of the heat, light and windows and he certainly brought back some vivid pictures of old days. Can you remember his daily inspections, his words of kindly advice, information and warning, when he met us in the corridor and patiently QD explained that we had gone to school and left our steam on and windows open or had burned two lights, contrary to all laws of institutional life? IYhen I first saw him, he was testing the fire-bells, at the same time, hlonday noon during lunch. Time has not weakened the sound of those bells they are as brazen as ever and enough to wake the dead. lVill you ever forget the first real drill we had, the morning after the Senior play, when everybody was about dead? You remember the time I mean, right after we had a new night watchman, and his heavy tread on the third floor jarred out the glass in the bell on the floor below and rang in the alarm at half past five in the morning. Perhaps it didn't make such an impression on you as it did on me, but it doesn't seem now, as if I shall ever be able to forget that morning. How sleepy the girls were and how they did grumble, because such a time had been chosen for a drill! Even when the lines, carefully guarded by tl1e noble self-sacrificing officers, cool in the belief that it was only a drill, did arrive in the lower hall and found everybody rushing around looking for a fire and the bells still elanging, the only thing that bothered theln seemed to be lack of sleep. They lacked sleep for some time, however, for the new night watchman, never having heard of a drill and being totally unaware of our mag- nificent bells, knew not where to turn tl1en1 off, consequently, they clanged gaily for half an hour, killing all sleep. They might have killed a few of the inmates, if someone hadn't conceived the bright idea of holding the button until the indispensable Mr. Jones could be summoned to turn off the current. For a time that alarm was such a mystery, too: but, at least, it caused some amusement later, to find out how quickly a keen, clear-thinking person can solve a mystery and predict dire results for the guilty party. An equally vivid memory to us all was the night after a February vacation, when the girls, weary from holiday exertions, were called from their rooms at nine o'clock to mop in the dining room. Did you go that night? IVell, do you remember that nursery rhyme, Some in rags and some in tags and some in velvet gownsn? That rhyme would apply beautifully to a line of description for the bucket brigade, only the words wouldn't be Htagsl' or rags.', and the implements of war, well, all I can say, is, that such a variety of pails, mops, brooms, etc., has 11ever been equalled in my knowledge. Night watchman, matrons, teachers, maids, girls, all mopped: what did a little matter like personal appearance have to do with them? But no matter how they mopped, the water still poured down from above like a river and the floor was a regular lake, the ceiling was down and broken dishes and chairs were in abundance. Such havoc as one small leak can work! Yet those old mopping bees were so frequent that Taconic Hall would not seem like the real place without one now and then for excitement. But that one was the king of them all, and tl1e canvas ceiling which met our gaze, also the gaze of our guests for fifteen weary weeks, was our tribute to the thoroughness of its work. INORMALOGUE as By the way, they do not have any more man dances at the dorm. I don't suppose they've had any since we were refused one in our Senior year. Will you ever forget the soggy feeling which came over you when you had to withdraw those invi- tations to that dance? After, figuratively speaking, begging on bended knee, our would-be guests to grace the one event of the season with their presence and after receiving their reluctant consent to the same, what a blow it was, to be obliged to write that it grieves us exceedingly but, etc. Grieves is not the correct word either. Pained is much better. Oh well, such was life, especially in Taconic Hall! And such plans as we had made to make that dance a credit to the hall. All dashed to the ground! W'ell, I suppose it really was a good thing. You know as Juniors we used to get terribly excited over the preparations: the new dresses, the committees, the long-receiving line, the entertainment, the music and all. And how the girls did flutter down to receive the masculine element! IVhy, really, I can't understand how they allowed it. Once there must have been as many as twelve men, I do believe. And nearly every IIIIIC it was almost eleven before we got into bed. Now of course, in staidcr CFD years, I realize that such undue excitement, such late hours was entirely too much for the constitution of any young, growing girl. Ahem! After that the girls raved for hours about the other thrilling incidents of dor- mitory lifeg the study hours so rigidly CPD kept, the walks, the singing bees on the big front porch, the sleeping bees on the front balcony, lights out at quarter after ten, which I am afraid was sometimes the signal, in our room at least, for lights to go out of the room and into the closet. Then we talked of the Victor rccitals in the library, on rainy Sunday afternoons, which gave us the creeps, because we had harrowing thoughts of Home, Sweet Home, and of that one beautiful April night when we listened to the Victor on the upper balcony, a never-to-be-forgotten pleasure which was the fruit of a struggle, made in the name of principle and comfort. Of course, the winter sewing bees by the open fire, the after-dinner dancing parties, the coasting parties and the indignation meetings held regularly in the halls about something or other, received due con- sideration, nor did we slight the Saturday morning struggle for cleanliness and order in our rooms. Then someone asked if we remembered our old definition for a dinner partyg a few extra nuts and a dish of candy. Youth is easily pleased, is it not? But when a person goes out to dinner, simply by changing into her best dress and moving to the next table, it is the climax in contentment. But didn't we enjoy them, then? Have you noticed this year's catalogue? Wiell, I looked in it for that line which we discovered in one of our old catalogues, that afforded us so much amusement: but it wasn't there. The line was to the effect that the dorm contained single rooms and suites and we never could account for the suites, until we came to the conclusion that a suite was a room and two closets. Do you remember how instantly the girls began to call their closets their boudoirs and spoke pompously of their private suites, containing two boudoirs,' and a living room? And dear me, didn't those boudoirs contain fine facilities for light house keeping? One could even serve a luncheon for four in one of them, provided the menu contained nothing more serious than mince pie. VVell, my dear, it's almost midnight and I haven't said a word about what hap- pened during my visit in North Adams, but really, there isn't much to say. The 84 NORMALOGUE present is totally eclipsed by memories of the past. But oh, will you ever forget the dear old place, Taconie Hall of Blessed Memory, where our spirits were like those of the negro in the old song, sometimes up and sometimes d0wn g where we fooled and played when we should have labored, and hung out notices for the night watch- man to please call usi' etc. in order to make up for wasted hoursg where we lay awake nights wondering how our work was ever to he linishedg where we dogged around corners to escape the everlasting whys, which were hurled at our defenseless heads on all possible occasionsg where we begrudged to spend valuable time in mere eating, that is, eating where we should and when we should, for strange to say, eating a meal in the proper place was a matter of necessity with us, not plcasureg and where we should most likely have had our careers nipped in tl1e bud and we ourselves shipped home in disgrace, if it had not been for the infinite patience of her who rules supreme in Taconic Hall and does her best to make her reign work gladness for her 6'family? But in defense of those wasted hours and mad scrambles to catch up, I say now, I wouldn't have done otherwise for worlds, would you?

The dining room, tastefully decorated and lighted by candles, was very effective, and we have nothing but the pleasantest recollections of that evening. This year, we, as Seniors, told the Juniors of the pleasures in store for them, not forgetting the Valentine Party. But much to our surprise, when the evening arrived, it turned out to be a Patriots, Party. That evening, as we were lining up in the Dance Hall, I eould not help but notice the pleasing color effect produced, as everyone was dressed in white and many wore red ribbons on their hair. These, together with the small flags they carried, seemed to bear out the sentiment of the day. Singing Hhlarching Through Georgia, we marched along the corridor and under an arch, decorated with flags and bunting, into the dining room. Here the lines separated, forming an aisle, through which the waitresses passed to their own table, the rest following to their respective places, where they joined in singing America the Beautiful before sitting down. In the center of each table was a round wooden flag holder, in which each girl placed her own flag. The tables were also decorated with place cards, favors, candy, nuts, etc., the whole presenting a very festive appearance. As we all sat talking, laughing and enjoying our meal, we suddenly heard the opening strains of '6The Star Spangled Bannern on the Victor. Everyone rose and joined heartily in the singing of our national anthem. A listener could easily have discerned that everyone in the room was a loyal American and felt keenly the weight of every word she sang. lilany other patriotic songs and negro melodies were also sung- Tipperary among the rest. lVhen all were through, everyone stood and sang our Alma lNIater, after which we marched out to the tune iVhen Johnnie Comes Marching Home, played on the Victor. Out in the hall. we all joined in America, and then separated to go to our respective rooms. Next year, when we are trying to uplift some rural comnunity, we shall, 110 doubt, think with pleasure of the many good times we had at Taconic Hall and our hearts give a rousing cheer for The Faeultyf, Helen M. Caslzmore. f f 'fir , I ' ' I, ,' .nQ.f.4' ll ,243 ,1,.'- ' ,', W.V,uN'p 'fri' -A - V . W '- -:,..- . . ., . .. . i------ws f.v rI, .
