A T bf 'H 'Til - W x x A 11 N J NOTHER year has passed by, and again dear Normal sends forth from her halls her graduates. Two happy years have We spent here, but as graduation day approaches there is a feeling of sadness as well as joy. There is joy because it brings us to the goal We sought after and to a higher rung on the ladder of success. We are now to go out into a bigger, broader field of work. Our opportunity to prove ourselves capable of coping with the tasks of the World and proving ourselves Worthy of the trust placed in us by our Alma Mater, is before us. There is sadness intermingled with this joy because We are now leaving behind us the happy school days, dear to every student. The pleasant experiences will now become mere memories, friends must be separated as each individual seeks his Work, but let us hope that the friendships formed while here will be bound closer by the parting. Dear Normal will forever remain to each graduate a storehouse of delightful experiences and fond memories. It is our hope that We may ever be loyal to our Alma Mater, and to all the ideals for which she stands. 10

Longfellow. ll O the Juniors we would say, Do not complete your opin- ions of Mr. Murdock until you have taken psychology with him. Form your own opinions, and do not let any one else form them for you. For although you will have met him in chapel nearly every morning for a year and a half, not until your final half year will you realize the depths of his teaching capacity. Une who has heard him tell of his trip to Atlantic Citymust know that he is as keen an observer in the outside world as in our own Nomual School. Always he thinks of what may or may not be best for the girls. Those who have gone out from among us testify to the lasting qualities of his interest in the wel- fare of his pupils, and more than one girl who has found dithculties arising in her chosen work of life has been guided and helped by his wise advice. Life teems with incidents which make us realize the paucity of even the widest vocabulary to express the esteem we hold for those who influence us toward higher ideals, and in this case we one and all confess to the insutliciency of words to do our affections jus- tice.
