9 9 $ TO THE OLDEST MEMBER OF OUR PACULTY. ANDREW ROBERTSON BYERLY, THIS VOLUME IS AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED. 9 9 9 4 i Andrew k . Bgerlii. « NDRKW K. BYKRI.Y was born in North Huntingdon township. Westmoreland county. lJa.. on July 6th. 1833. His father was a farmer of (Scrnian descent, and his mother. whose grandfather. James Power, was the first ordained minister west of the Alleghenies. was of Scotch-Irish ancestry Mr Byerly thus unites in his own person two races which have made Pennsylvania history. His early life was spent at home. He began teaching in April. 1850. in the home district, where he remained for six years, afterwards teaching a term in an adjoining district. He then attended the Preshytcrial Academy for one term and Jefferson College for another, after which, in April. 1857. the now known and honored Doctor, then a youth of twenty-four, came to the Normal School, with which most of his later life has been connected. Graduating as a member of the first Senior Class in 1 58. Mr. Byerly lxrgan his career as a teacher in the School in the fall of that same year. This | ositioii he has filled with increasing honor and dignity ever since, save during the time when civil war threatened to rend the land asunder. Then Dr. Byerly, in common with many others, came to the aid of his country. He was mustered into the service of the United States as captain of Company K, 122d Regiment. Pennsylvania Volunteers. He served nine months. Upon his discharge, on May 20th. 1862. Capt. Byerly married and was at once re-elected to his former position as a teacher in the Normal School, beginning work in the fall of 1863. Since then his work here has been uninterrupted. • S • Ur. Byerly has tatight a part of each year for fifty years, and has lectured for twelve years before the Lancaster County Teachers’ Institute on the subject of Grammar, occasionally lecturing before institutes of adjoining counties. The Doctor is known and honored elsewhere, as well as at the First State Normal School. This is shown by the fact that the degree of Master of Arts was conferred upon him by Jefferson College, and that of Doctor of Philosophy by Lafayette College. He is a ruling elder in the First Presbyterian Church of Lancaster, Pa., and, though not a regularly ordained minister of the gospel, he preaches occasionally in the pulpits of Millersville and elsewhere. The students who hear him all testify to the earnestness of the message which comes from I)r. Byerly’s lips. His desire is to teach yet another ten years in his loved alma maUr. His life - quiet, earnest, faithful—is a constant example and incentive to earnest, faithful work ; and his ” well done” is praise that every student in the great school appreciates. May he long remain in the halls which owe much to his earnest Christian life and character. i 9 s hool (xilentInr. $ 1900. Summer Session. Junk 24. Sunday Morning -Baccalaureate Sermon.

And as we now stand at the other end and look lack, it seems as though we had but awakened on a beautiful summer morning, refreshed and prepared for a day's journey. The class work, which we thought tedious and difficult at the time, now appears in our minds as a recollection of dreams. On account of the many associated events, the days that we spent at the Normal will no doubt Ik- often in our thoughts throughout our future careers. It is the aim of this book, there, fore, to record those things which are likely to fade from memory, and also to emphasize those events which will always stand prominent in the minds of the class. In statistical matter out aim has been accuracy ; in the literary features we tried to represent different sides of school life-It is for those who read these pages to judge as to our success. We extend our sincere thanks to Prof. B. A. Ueydrick. teacher of Literature and Rhetoric, who has kindly assisted and advised us in our work, to Dr. ltimcr for his assistance with the camera, and to all members of the class who have favored 11s with contributions. With loyal greetings to the friends of the Normal, and especially to the members of the Class of 1900, this volume is presented by Tin; Kjhtoks. a The I'CR Ultij. a ??C� C3 KLIPHALKT ORAM I.VTE, A.

It iscomposed of 138 mem-l ers. the greatest nuiuber that ever constituted a Senior Class in the history of the It was. as all great things are. slowly organized. This was probably due to the great diversity of minds of which it is composed. or to the numt er of different parts of the world represented. One hundred and thirteen passed Junior at Millersville in '99: eight in '98: two in 97 ; one in ’94. and one in '91. lileven passed Junior at other Normal Schools and joined the Class as new students in the fall. The Class represents twenty-one different counties and five different States. Regardless of these adverse conditions, the Class l ccanie an organized body, adopted its yell, colors and flower before the middle of the fall term. And as the members began to look forward towards Christmas vacation, the Class consisted of a united body of earnest and cheerful workers, moving forward like a mighty river. A marked incident in the history of the Class was the rather interesting lesson given to the Juniors in the rush. The fact that only about one-fourth of the Senior l oys participated and succeeded in nobly winning the day, gave the Juniors a fair idea of what is yet beyond their accomplishments. Another event of special interest was the trip to Washington, which was enjoyed by a large number of the Class. The favorable weather, the efficient guides, the absence from school work, all tended to make the occasion a pleasant one. It was on the evening of December 10. 1899. that the Senior Sociable was held. The School. . . js . . Faculty and nearly all the students accepted the invitation, and decided, with the Seniors, that the Sociable was a success. The Senior Reunion deserves special mention in the history of the literary work. It t K� k place on the evening of February 19, 1900, and its well-rendered program reflected honor on the Class. As we glance at the school year as a whole, we see it dotted with happy hours and merry occasions, whose memory far outshines the drudgery of the class-room work, and of the tedious hours of study. And as we have now about finished onr course at this School, we can only look through the golden gates of promise to the glorious future held out l cforc ns. . . . . a Senior Poll. $ A.nna Jkankttk Adams, P., Shnmokln, Pa Ei.i.a Z.

The Junior Sociable, on Thanksgiving evening, November 30th. 1899, was a creditable affair, and speaks highly for class organization and class good feeling. The reunion of the two societies, on Febuary 17th. 1900, was an event long to be remembered by all who were present, and will go down in the history of the first class of the Twentieth Century as one of the best things they ever did. When the Class of 1900 leaves the Normal halls they will be succeeded by worthy students, and the high standard for which Millersville is famous will bo ably maintained. • -jr- LOOKING FROM LIBRARY DOOR. . -3$. . $ i u.i mrawY society. $ OIU.AKIXKII M.« V, |K5V ilcUOl Rich in Trutlu Colors Blue.

S sunset spread her varied hues Upon the western sky. The dying Century viewed the scene; A tear was in his eye. Encircled in u misty hue He saw the setting sun ; Ami now beholds the glittering stars Appearing one by one. The stars! the product of his age. Look down like many suns. And anxiously he looks around To find the brightest one . While gazing thus, he sees one light Surpassing all by far, With smiling face and willing hand He crowns it “ Evening Star. My life is not in vain. he says, Nor knows a fatal doom, When deeds make aged hearts feel glad, And stars shine on a tomb. • But whence did this fair light ascend? Where is its dwelling place? And what are all these glittering beams That light my aged face? Ah, soon he find its fair abode— That class of earnest toil. Within tin oldest Normal wall That stand on Keystone soil. For purpose stern, and courage strung Upon life’s troubled stream, The M. S. N. S. naughty.naught He holds in high esteem. But soon my final glance I cast I'jioii this band, said he. To future works my eyes arc dim. Its youth alone I ace But trust that through its happy years As hope of youth depart. Whate'er it hand will find to do May never grieve my heart. And one more word before 1 leave; From me example take Now, ere your evening skies grow red, And you your toils forsake. Your path leads up to wisdom's heights; In youth march nobly on, That human minds and lips divine Will say to you ‘ Well done. . .6S. . Hilt '-m l l 1:1? llOMIt. My I)kar Father : Mii.i.krsvim.k. Pa., Sept. 2, 1899. According to our agreement, I have allowed almost a week to jxass Ixrfore writing to you. Tins first week has been so different from what I had looked forward to. When you left me on the train Monday morning. I think you could read my sentiments on the subject of Millcrsville. I felt as if I were leaving the whole world behind me. Strange to say. those feelings sought out ward expression, and the man who occupied the seat in front of me turned around to see the source of them, but he failed, thanks to the magazine with which you supplied me. When 1 arrived in Lancaster, I was truly the proverbial stranger in a strange land,—but for a moment only. There was a large number of young jicople at the station whom I correctly surmised to be Millcrsville students, and they, likewise, judged that I was to be one. 1 know the beginning of my career here would have been one long series of blunders if it had not been for those students. They took charge of me, relieved me of all care of ray Iwggage. and brought me to Millcrsville safely. As it was the evening of the first day. there were already many students here. I think I was introduced to three-fourths of the entire imputation on my way from the car to the office. The transactions which took place there were preliminary ones. It was little trouble to me. for while one girl helped me to secure an entrance card, another found my room, and the others arranged ray program. When this work was completed, we went to ray room, and after I had recovered from the shock of its spaciousness—I will describe it to you in another letter—we went to supper. It was not until after supper that I had a chance to see the campus. It is beautiful. I met the remaining fourth of the students while out that evening. . .69. . You know how much I like to study strange people. I had a good chance and took occasion then and there to classify my newly-made friends. According to my arrangement those of especially dignified hearing were Seniors, my classmates, while the less sedate were Juniors and Preparatory students. I have since found my classification was faulty, for my Seniors have proved to be Preps. and my Preps and Juniors are Seniors and Faculty members. I was shown the many interesting spots on the campus, and made slightly acquainted with the laws which govern the place and its surroundings. They are so numerous and varied that after hearing them one wonders what he is allowed to do. The first rule to affect me directly was signified by the ringing of the bell, which brought all the students in from the campus to study. I did little of it the first evening, for a crowd of girls came with me to my room and helped me to unpack my trunk and arrange things in the room. Their skill in that line must be the result of long ex| ericuce. My little room was turned into a reception room that evening, and has continued to be such ever since. The girls are not formal in the least, but call at any and all times. We do not always lack refreshments at these little affairs, for the girls bring fudge and plates of cake and fruit to me very frequently. ()n Tuesday morning the work begun in earnest. It might have lieen rather confusing to me if the girls had not taken turns in piloting me to and from the different classrooms and through the buildings. During my vacant periods and after school hours they took me walking and rowing Each day has been a repetition of the pleasure of the previous day, for besides the regular work there is tennis, rowing and walking to occupy our time. Sometimes I am at a loss to know which to accept of the invitations to engage in these pastimes, but so far I have managed to arrange things suitably and live at peace with the world. There are two literary societies in connection with the school, meeting on Friday and Saturday evenings. Their programs are always preceded by a little sociable at which the boys and girls are privileged to talk to each other, provider! the number in a group is not less than . .70. . three. Three’s company here, and four's a crowd, while two’s not allowed at all. I took advantage of one of the numerous invitations and attended the sociable and meeting of the Page Society, last night, with a crowd of girls. It was a very enjoyable evening. The program was especially interesting and well rendered. After society we girls went to another girl's room, and stayed until the last retiring bell rang, having a general good time. The other society meets tonight, and 1 am to go with a different crowd of girls. I dreaded the first Sabbath away from home, but if the plans the girls have made for spending it are carried out. to-morrow will In-another pleasant day for me. The time nllotcd to my letter writing has expired, or as the people here say. my time is all. Monday night. Guess what I have done! After that meeting Saturday evening I decided which society I was going to join, so this morning I went through the mysteries of a special meeting of the - Literary Society in Room I), immediately after breakfast. and came out one of them. My bow, the society color, must be a talisman, for this has l een one of the happiest days I have spent away from home. One or two little things troubled me. but I am trying to forget them. When passing a group of girls at noon to-day, I heard one of them say, She's a goner.” They had not noticed me. but from the silence and their looks of emlxurass ment when they saw me, I feel that I was the subject of their conversation. I shall find out what a goner is Indore I worry any more about it. On Saturday I made an engagement with several of the girls to go walking to-day, but they failed to call for me at the ap| oiutcd time. I)o you supj ose being a goner has anything to do with these things? Rut I don't care, for I feel sure that I joined the best society. Yoitr Loving Daughtkr. P. S. I think you may as well send the box now and not wait until Thanksgiving. COI I) u H1I.K mild September's breestc blew, And days al school as yet were few. The supper dish, to each one new. Was Cold Beef. When fair October' east wind l orc The scent of autumn's golden store, Knell day. as every day Ixrforc, We had Cold Beef. Though all were eager for a change 'Cause Nature’s hand does so arrange,— November's frost could not estrange Us from Cold Beef. February changed the outward sight From dull gray earth to snowy white, But every day with all our might We ate Cold Beef. March dime with no unusual air. And with it brought vacation's care, Still first and last day's bill of fare Was Cold Beef. As April brought the tints of spring, The birds their choicest lays did smg ; We daily saw tile waiters bring Cold Beef. And as Deeemlx-r came along. And with it Santa's happy throng, The thought was spread by sounding gong : Cold Beef to-day. Now May turned outward all our eyes. And showed where nature's beautv lies, But still our fare, the kitchen's prize. Was Cold Beef. January s days seemed dark and blue, J„„c brought in sight school's latest dav. 1-or then we hade our friends adieu. And everything has changed, we sav, ' And luxuries were replaced anew, I-xcept, alas, one meal each day By Cold Beef- We have Cold Beef. And so 'twill Ik- in veam to conic. When from this school we all have gone, The future mind will he made strong By Cold Beef. 7 ■ wo DOWN SHENK’SLAME. coo DlvAR old walk! How many memories of happy students with smiling faces and merry laughter haunt every step of the pathway from the School to the Con.”! What a place it is on an afternoon in late spring or early summer, to while away a pleasant hour and commune with nature, which is everywhere about one. Fall. Uh . has its beauties down the long lane, for the lover of nature. Pleasant recollections cluster about every rod of the lane, which each new student hears of on the day he enters the school. These pleasant associations will touch chords in the memories of most of us, when, long years hence, we shall return to the scenes of our youthful triumphs and joys. Then Shenk's Lane will hold no small place in the happy reunion of hearts and hands within the walls of our alma maler. And may all our recollections connected with the dear old Normal Ik as pleasant as the hours spent strolling in the shady walk called Shenk’s Lane. THE im 111:1?.

IJXK) IN WASHINGTON. IT is seven o’clock on a damp foggy morning in early November. All is life and animation at the old Normal. Hoys pace excitedly up and down the boardwalks; girls throng the balcony or sit on the traveling lags with which the hallway is choked : teachers bustle about laden with overshoes and umbrellas. Soon the welcome sound of the trolley car is heard and there is a grand rush for the gale. The molorman taps his bell, the Juniors wave their handkerchiefs. and the Class of l!NM is off for Washington. A special car waited us at the Pennsylvania Station. Into it we tumbled with all the abandon of school children, and, true to our training, arranged ourselves into MillcrsviIlian groups. Soon a party of restless girls, growing weary of indoor amusements, opened the windows to sec more distinctly the beautiful scenery which their honored principal had told them lay between Lancaster and Philadelphia; but along came the conductor, “Put down them windows! You can’t expect us to heat the atmosphere outside! ” If the Seniors could not study nature, they would study sociology. Barkis was willin’, if he was shy. and Peggottv was artful. The number of scats that held but one girl grew surprisingly numerous. In a short time, all the Harkises were safely ensconsed:—Grecian oratory mingled with Irish humor; Altoona and Lancaster exchanged views; the Saxon knight found . .77 . favor in the eyes of the Celtic queen ; the Jesuit missionary bent over the fair elocutionist; the Wild Beast roared gently by the side of a nut brown maid; but to a worthy Junior fell the greatest prize, for the Kates awarded to him the Laurel. It was a motley crowd that poured forth from Broad Street Station about eleven o’clock that morning. The vanguard was led by the guide, by whose side walked a little brown-eyed girl, her waving hat-plumes serving as an ensign. The rest followed in groups of fours and fives. Ik-hind walked a pleasant-faced gentleman flourishing a huge umbrella, by means of which he confined the flock to the pavement. Several little girls seeing us coming took refuge in a doorway : white-faced women looked forth from the windows; the policemen held a whispered conversation. But fear soon left the hearts of the Philadelphians. The children ventured into the streets; men dispersed to their places of business; and several ladies out for a drive were even observed to smile when a guileless member of our party, who had never seen an automobile, exclaimed. ,Ah, there goes a wheelless carriage !” Thus unmolested wc pursued our journey, gazed in open-mouthed wonder at the heaps of gold and silver piled up in the mint, walked gingerly over the floors made sacred by our country's fa rs. and. bolder grown, smiled pleasantly back when the University Boys lade us welcome. Dinner over, we t x k possession of the Exposition. Some went to sec the Elephant; those of more elevated tastes took in the Electric Palace. At three o'clock we left the Exposition grounds and boarded the train for Washington. The evening was spent in exclaiming over the wonders of the Congressional Library. Of all the interesting sights of the Capitol the one that held us fascinated was not the beautiful Statuary Hall, nor the deserted Senate Chamber, nor the dusty House of Representatives, nor even the renowned lobby, but the closed doors of the Supreme Court Room. A year ago, we - • 7S - - AT MOUNT VKKNOX. were Juniors sitting in Room Glistening with breathless interest to a graphic description of the opening of the Supreme Court; now. we were Seniors standing just outside its portals—and the doors were locked! An attendant seeing our disappointment told us that the stroke of twelve would open those doors. All history-lovers vowed that noon should find them on the spot. But the vow was hard to keep. The busy workers in the Bureau of Printing and Kngrav-ing beguiled us of half an hour Then mastodons and humming birds, corals and mummies, made us forget the flight of time so that when at last we stood at the door of the Smithsonian Institute, it was within fifteen minutes of the appointed time. Must we give up the sight and accompany the prosaic element to the Fish Commission? No. A Sdentif with a flaming red necktie has offered to lead the forlorn hope. We dashed from the building, caught a passing car, and it was three minutes of twelve when we alighted and followed our crimson banner at a dogtrot across the wide grounds of the Capitol. A guide came forward and we were in the Supreme Court Room just at the stroke of twelve. The court crier's sonorous voice broke the silence : Hear ye! Hear ye! Hear ye! the Judges of the Supreme Court of the United States. In solemn silence we stood until the black-robed figures had taken their seats. A lawyer arose and began to speak in a low monotone; then seeing our leader depart, we perforce followed. A mad race for the hotel, a hasty dinner, and we were off for Mt. Vernon. Arrived at Mt. Vernon we assembled in front of the house and were photograplied. Then followed an inspection of the house and grounds. Passing through Alexander, we paid a visit to Christ Church ami sat in Washington's jjcw. The rest of the afternoon was spent at Lee's home. livening came, and with it the opera. The girls were wild to go; the boys, not averse. A chaperon was found, and surrounded by a bevy of girls she led the way to the Lafayette theatre. The witching hour of the night had come crc they issued forth again. It was a beautiful night. The smiling moon cast her rays over the deserted streets. The great trees threw fantastic shadows on the pavements. What could Ik.- more inviting to young and ardent minds just fresh from mirth and music ? The chaperon, mindful of the malaria lurking in the damp night air, seeing nothing of the beauty which was casting its romantic charms around her young charges, hastened homeward. Was the moon to blame ? The lads and lassies turned the other way. And the next day was the day uf reckoning. At nine o’clock on that memorable Saturday morning. Secretary Koot looking forth from his office window l eheld what, at first glance, he supposed was the resurrected army of Coxcy movingen masse toward the White House. His hand was already on the Ik-11, hut a second glance reassured him, and so there were no troops drawn up to receive us. A few bluc-coaied officials very quietly and unostentatiously ushered us into the Hast Room, and left u - to prepare to meet the Head of the Nation. After much loss of time and energy everybody was properly gloved, and a few were observed to steal stealthily up to the great mirrors that line the walls and try the effect of different smiles. There was nothing portable in the room : hut the relic seekers, not to Ik- disappointed, pulled silk threads from the furniture. Then we followed a blue-coat up the winding stairs and found ourselves packed like sardines in one corner of a small room. An inner door opened. A man sprang up the steps. ’ Happy to meet you !” Pleased to sec you !” ' Happy to know you ! and we found ourselves standing on the gravel walk in front of the White House. After gazing l ewildercdly around for a few minutes, we started for the Washington Monument. Within a week from the time we returned from the top of the great original, a hundred miniatures lay finished in the cupboard of the Manual Training room. At last, tired even of the beautiful pictures and the splendid statues, we sought the station Sr. . and commenced our homeward journey. How different from the outgoing is the home-coming. Conversation has ceased, and the sound of laughter is not heard. Here, one little bird who has flown too far. tearfully nurses her sprained ankle. There, two black heads nestle contentedly on one cape and the gentle breathing tells us they sleep. Alone in an obscure corner, gazing mournfully into the darkness, sits the gallant knight, leaving his lady to wander disconsolately up and down the aisle. All life and gayetv seems to have departed save in one corner. There soul-inspiring couplets that have hitherto fallen on dull masculine ears now delight the soul of the Western belle. At last the lights of the Normal appear and, like storm-tossed mariners, we enter the welcome haven. • • • 8J • • c?oc • •r :- I III: .SI MIOI? WISH. ONE to five we stood in the morn. At the hour when the fight begun, And dauntless still, though weary and torn. In the end wc hail lost not a man. Like llornlius at the bridge wc stood Against a mighty host; Before us swelled the Junior Hood. But of skill, we had the most. The girls with scarfs and kerchiefs white Waved on the few so brave, When beauty fair looks on, the right Is sure its cause to save. Nine times they charged our serried ranks, And nine times beaten back, Prom rear and front ami guarded flanks. Withdrew their vain attack. Tattered and torn the little band Gathered when strife was o'er, Proud that each man’s strong right hand Had held its own, and more. Oh, comrades brave, in other climes. Par from this battle's crush.

Ami ve order was after this wise: All his I loyal subjects should assemble themselves togilher upon ye frontc Campus, l cfore ye going down of the Sunne. All ye subjects should don their most liecoming apparelle and shoidd s|K.-n l a portion of ye day among ye Archievcs of ye Schulc. in order that they might have a Scholarly Mien. Furthermore ve order was, that no Senyur should hold any conversation with any of that Despised Tribe, ye Junyurs. lest their dignitie might lie harmed. Ve tyme which had been appointed having arrived, a greate lnwlie was seen gathering togither. They came from all sides and in such numbers as ye leaves of ye trees. The fame of ye Deed which was to be done was so spread abroad that all ye people of ye Citic and ye Schulc came forth to be-h � ld ye doing of it. Ye mcmlwrs of ye Senyur Classc did ap| care and did ! ctaktf themselves to ye steps of ye library. Hereupon vc Man Of Yc Camera did come forth and he commanded ye metnl ers to arrange themselves upon yc Steps in classical postures. Whereupon it was discovered by the Man Of Ye Camera that yc number of them was too greate for all to be seated there at yc same tyme. So it was that ye Scnyurs were divided into two Companies for yc doing of ye Deed, lip to this tyme affaires had Ijccii peaceable, but this did cause ye troublesome God Cupid to conic forth. Ye Man Of Ye Camera did save that certain ones should seat themselves first, and ye God Cupid did command ye Young Men to wait until they should see which Damsels should seate themselves first. Thus it was that there was a conflict between ye Man Of Ye Camera and ye Go l Cupid, and this conflict did much delay ye doing of ye Deed. Ye God Cupid did take some of ye Maidens by ye hand and lead them back of ye I.ibrary. so that ye Man Of Ye Camera could not get them. And ye God Cupid took some of ye Young Men and bound them against ye fence and to ye trees of ye grove. Now with some, ye Man Of Ye Camera did appear most jxiwerful. and with some ye God Cupid. So it was that at last a sufficient numlier was got togither for ye doing of ye first part of ye Deed. Ye God Cupid again appeared and did try to arrange them upon the Steps, in ve which lie succeeded partlic. Ye Man Of Ye Camera did command that each one should assume an air of greate Learning, if it was possible by anie means. Then all was ready for ve doing of ye first part of ye Deed. And it was done. Koortliwithe ye God Cupid did bring forth ye Damsels which he had concealed l ehind ye Library. Immediately they all did hasten to ye Steps; and ye God Cupid placed them where lie thought would seem good in their eyes. And ye doing of ye second part of ye Deed was like unto ye first. This was ye Manner of ye doing of that greate Deed, all ye which did happen in ye latter part of ye reign of that worthie King. McClaino.

THIS MAIN lini.I)IN(i. www “pmy to .senior. w GREEN and callow youth, just as he left the country school, he is dropped by the strcct- 1 car company into a laughing, shouting crowd of students, all of them apparently acquaint M cd with everybody else, and no one seeming to have time to notice him. But this is only apparent indifference, and he is soon hailed by a number of disinterested fellows, decorated with either blue or red bows. He is carefully piloted to the office, an old student holding each arm, as the new student is wild and may get away. Once in the office and business transacted, he is speedily initiated into the mysteries of “ snapping, ' ponying, etc. Then that evening, or possibly the following Friday or Saturday evening, he is introduced to the pleasures which lie behind the doors of Rowe’s or Warfcl’s. By the time he has sat through a three hours' program on I Kith Friday and Saturday evenings at the two society meetings, he begins to smell a rat. But lie is having a good time, so if he be a shrewd fellow, he keeps it up for a week or two longer, and then joins the society he had made up his mind to join before he came to school. After this he wins friends on his merits. He gradually, or rapidly, according to his ability, makes his way through first C and second B up to the B or A Junior class. What a happy day it is for him when he realizes that he is at last a Junior and a fellow who can look down on the little Preps. He is now a student whom the Seniors, those great people, notice occasionally! They make him Vice- • •93• • President in their societies, and he runs a small imitation society of his own. just for practice,” you know. Finally he passes the trials and tribulations of Shenk's Lane.” •'snapping” in the library, and incidentally the examinations of the Faculty and Final Hoard, and stands forth a full fledged Senior, hardly realizing how great he has become. He is now the great man of the school. The Senior class is the ruling ImhIv. He is looked up to by every one, from “Scientif down or up to “Prep,” and dignity begins to grow. Dignity” is a strange plant needing the soil called Senior for its proper development, and is of mushroom growth, for in a few weeks most of the student's classmates and himself have developed a full perennial crop of this strange growth. Indeed in a very short time, in some cases but a few days, you would not, nay. could not believe he was the same fellow who came as such a green bumpkin,' on that now far off day. He goes through the various phases of Senior life. He joins in the Senior rush,'' shouts the ” Senior yell,” debates in society, gives an oration, and has a best girl. Class feeling grows and then dies out. The days pass but slowly while in class, but all too rapidly in the pleasant companionship of some of his class-mates. His class takes an excursion and he gets better acquainted. The year rolls on. Christmas and spring vacations come and go. Theses are written, orations composed. All too soon comes the time when the pleasures, the laltors. the sacrifices and the pleasant associations of the beautiful school life must lx- broken. Commencement Day, with its rewards and triumphs, comes. He receives his bit of parchment and perchance, delivers his oration. Good-byes are said. Some regretful leave-takings arc made, and he goes forth into the world able to cope with life’s troubles and difficulties. The callow stripling has been transformed into a man able to fight life’s stern battles. . . 94 • • I)l riOMAUY or Till! IM.I1SII SU MGU (,I:. MOS. n. A | seudonym applied to nil male geometricians.

You get on a big board that flies around a pole, and one minute you're up in the air and the next you're a-bumping into the ground. The man stopped the thing and we all got on—Kahrney. Peterman. Melchior. Tanger. Jacobs and all the rest of us except the Senior. He went to tend to some business and we stayed on the whole afternoon. The man did say something about getting off once, but Kahrney gave him a mint stick and a toot of peanuts and he grinned and let us alone. It was pretty late when the Senior came back, and said we’se to hurry up or we'd not get home before dark. We all yelled to the man to stop, but oh, that bad, wicked man ! lie said we owed him a dollar and he wouldn't stop till we’d paid it. Of course, we weren't going to Ik cheated like that, and we stayed on a while longer, but it kept a-getting darker and darker, and the Senior said he'd give us a minute to come along. So we asked the man real pacifying-like if he wouldn't let us off, but he wouldn’t, and the Senior was going ! So we hunted up our money. There was just ninety nine cents and we had to give the man a chocolate rat for the rest. We ran like greased lightning to get home in time. “ A while after the Razzle Dazzle scrape, a lot of the fellows were sitting in my room one night, when we heard Mr. Warfel selling ice-cream : Hokcy pokey, five a cake, over the liver ami over the lake; You need no knife and you need no plate, hokcy pokey, five a cake!' We felt awful hungry, and we had each five cents, earned blackening boots, but the way was . . . . awful dark and the Seniors were all down at the sociable. Tanger went down to ask I)r. Bitner to take us, but he was busy and couldn’t go. We got hungrier every minute, and at last Dodd says as how he knew a charm to keep away witches, llis granny says a chicken bone in your pocket will keep them off. if you take hold of a broom with your hand. Each fellow raked out a chicken bone from under the l ed and we got our broom and started. Peterman went first, because he had a rabbit's foot, too. I don't know what happened, but the first we knew we were in the graveyard, tumbling around among the tomb stones. All at once Jacobs gave a screech and made a break for the school. I couldn't run as fast as the rest and there was a great black thing coming. Hobble gobble ! it went just dreadful. I tumbled and the thing came close to me. I gave myself up for lost and lay still. After a while I opened my eyes. There was a great light .shining, and I thought I was in Paradise. Then I heard Dr. Bitner say : “What's the trouble here? I sat tip and looked and there was Dr. Bitner with a lantern and the l oys all standing around, while right beside me lay a turkey with a broken leg, still gobbling. When we came back after the Christmas vacations, we found that somebody had averaged up the breaks made during the fall term, and the following score was on the bulletin board : Senior Class. Millersville.......................0. Junior Class, Millersville....................1901. A meeting was at once called, and a few of us fellows, who had made the class famous, got up an appropriate yell : “ Razzle Dazzle ! Hobble Gobble ! Hokey Pokey Zun ! Junior Class of Millersville, Nineteen Hundred One !” . . ns • • LETTERS rROM NINETY-MIME. J- ! . Palm, Editor-In-Chief of 'oo Wickkrsham.

I can assure it will never be excelled in the future and completely overshadows ours for '99. Words fail to express my appreciation. _______________________________________ J. D. Arnold, '99. My Dear Elizabeth:—1 suppose you arc wondering why I haven’t written to you this winter, but indeed I have been having such n good time that 1 have hod to neglect my correspondence. Of course, you know I have been teaching. 1 had a fine little school, just about ten miles from the city of Safe Harbor. The school house was in a delightfully lonely place, and I always was fond of solitude. My little walk of five miles in the morning and evening was quite refreshing, and my daily tasks, such as making the fire, carrying won I and sweeping the room, did me more good than all my exercise in the gymnasium. Now. I cannot take any more time to tell you of my gaycties. Write soon. Lovingly, Elsik I). Black. Dtar Mr. Palm .-—We have just learned that you arc editor-in-chief of the WlCKKKSKAM this year, and we want to ask you not to put our names in at all. We were honored with so much mention last year that we arc afraid some others may get jealous. We are sure that wo left a few just as worthy of notice as we were. However. if you cannot get along without them, you may speak of some of our numerous snapping expeditions, or any of our smaller escapades. But don't, under any circumstances, say anything about the time we held prayer-meeting in our room and mneitaged the door knobs and tied the chairs together; or about our best midnight feast, when the eatables came up from below through the window. The whole crowd, with one exception, will sign this petition. Elsie has no time to think of such things. Anna V. Hoi.mks, Annrttk Turnkk. Jkanrttk Hornsby, Florbkck Hknskl, Nkdaii Marks. I'M: IMflCK WALK. jlOW dear to my heart is the brick walk. I Its pleasures I ne'er can forget; Though broader pathways should be mine. I'll think of that place with regret. Oft. oft, have I stood in the shadow Of that porlieo, old and gray. Beneath those creaking timbers. Where the teachers walk day by flay. Ah me! those red bricks, now sunken By the pressure of many feet, Whnt tales they could tell of the snappers” That here in the shadows did meet! How out of the dining room bursting. The lassies expectantly stroll. To meet the brave laddies who daily The moss-covered walk d patrol. Here, brother converses with sister Of home and its intetests so dear, There, society officers linger. Readjusting political gear. Sometimes the window seats narrow. With gay, laughing maidens alxmnd, Listening, as youthful professors Their views so learned expound. And, in the dawn of the morning, When the grass with flew is wet. Over these railings the school boys Turn many n somerset. In the soft gray shadows of evening. Long after the curfew bell. Enchanted, the tennis players loiter, Trying to say farewell. Ah well! old Time is flying. The dreaded day draws near, When we must leave the brick walk. And all its memories dear. Next spring, when in distant school rooms. We're dragging the hot flays through. We shall long for the shade of the brick walk, And the schtxd friends tried ami true. our axssrmvrs. PART III. Katherine Hock.—The maid is meek, the maid is sweet, The maid is modest and discreet.

W sow UlGH on a throne by wisdom reared, which far I Outshines those reared in sister Normal Schools, Our Principal, by merit raised to that Great eminence, exalted sits: by hope Thus high uplifted beyond doubt, aspires In this great station, us to elevate In life, that we great good to fellow-men, Who bow beneath the weight of ignorance, May do. Tim he with high ambitious hopes And wishes for our future life’s career, By long experience taught, addresses us: Ye graduates, teachers, moulders of young minds. Since no bounds can. though compassed ’round with chains, Or thick with linked thunder-bolts overspread, From eminence hold educated youth, When once they have determined to excel; So may you all, with such ambitions high, Determined be. Be this your purpose then, That heritage to others to transmit, Which was to you transferred, tho' not so great. Consider then by what way this can l� ot Be done. ’Tis certain that by idleness No good can ever come, but always worse Doth bap to him who towards this evil great . . « . . Doth tread the path.

(A member of the Class of ‘00, five yearn after graduation, revisits the school, and after an extended survey, muses thus :) 1 I f ELL. truly Time hath wrought changes. It is the same beautiful place, yet everything 111 is different. As I walked around, many things new and strange met my eyes. Above the base IkiII field golf links have been laid out. I.ookiug across the lake towards Science Hall. I sec a beautiful little boat house, in which are kept a number of boats. These may be taken out at any time. A most pleasing sight it is to see the box's and girls rowing around and enjoying themselves. The old walnut tree abox-c the tennis courts still affords a delightful shade, in which the wearied players love to rest, but noxv scats have been provided for their accommodation. The old orchard tieyond is noxv one of the pleasantest corners of the campus. Walking towards the front of the campus I notice that the coal-bin, which had lieen one of the improvements of my time, has been removed. Hut the change that impresses me most is the Model School, a nexv and beautiful building, which stands just across the street. The thing that xvas most interesting to me in that building is the memorial left by our class. It occupies a conspicuous place, and will be a lasting monument to our labors. The old model school stands neglected. It hurts me to think that the place which, to me is so full of pleasant memories, should be passed by and forgotten. Hut that is the end of all things. I suppose. There is the supper bell. Now I shall go into the hall, take the clcx-ator, and in a minute’s time reach the light and cheerful dining-room on the fifth floor, where the palms in the alcoves, the carpeted floor and the orchestra playing, make this the most attractive place in the building. Ah ! there go the men to decorate the gymnasium for the hop to-night. Truly, things have changed. • • ”4 • • I KK ANi) t'AMi’L’K DOM QUIXOTE. LOCAL VERSION. ONE pleasant evening, not long since, a youth to fortune and to fame unknown, desiring to have his name go down in the annals of the School, set out to seek adventures. With nothing definite in view but his great purpose, he sauntered forth, hoping to meet some knight who would satisfy his desire for honorable combat. or, at least, to rescue some fair maiden in distress. This damsel, wanting n rescuer, he hoped that he might find in the person of one of a group of girls, who were Standing on the bridge. No sooner is the knightly deed thought of than he attempts its execution, and accosts the ladies l% Don Quixote of old. telling them of his wish for honorable exploits. They enter into the scheme with ardor and cheer him thus: Do as we say. ami you shall risk what no mortal man has risked before. Enter into the ladies' boat, and push out into the Lake. Thus you shall do a thing unheard of in the history of the School. With what alacrity he paddle his own canoe into the surging waters! Hut, alas I The novelty is too great. He cannot rise to the occasion ! The IkmU begins to rock. Don Quixote screams in an agony of fear and wildly wrings his hands, thus increasing the motion of the lx� at, and inviting destruction. ' Row to land ! is wafted across the water ; I can't, I can't, comes the despairing cry. Then row for the island. He tries to row. hut cannot I he wildly plies one oar and then the other, and frantically calls for help. Meanwhile those on shore an- hastily planning his rescue. The weeping damsels tic together lace handkerchiefs with which to raise him to the bridge, while his chum runs to implore Dr. I.ytc to draw the water out of the laike. I.ord Roberts bends over a tree, and trie to reach him in that way, while several Faculty mem Iters start for their boats on the Con. Hut all give way when a Scientific Student, who lias just returned from seeing Huffalo Bill, cries, I have it! Run nnd get Dolly's clothes line, and I'll lasso him !” Dmbvnstadt, Drcshniun, and 7.im. men nan, three fleet-footed Juniors, vie with each other in pulling out clothes jxists, and soon have all the wire from the vicinity of the Laundry at the Scicntifs command. Now for uti exhibition of skill! The wire is coiled ’ All is expectation ! Even the knight stops shrieking, as the gleaming coil flies far out over the Lake and envelops his body. In a moment it settles around his neck mid drags him from the boat. The Juniors pull him to shore, and the Couplct-makcr shouts : Was ever knight In such a plight? to which a full chorus of Juniors responds: Yes, in 1 XX ! . ,t 7. .
