No sooner had we entered the stately halls of M. N. S. than a change seemed to envelop our mental faculties. Pity ' ttSi-. tis true, that we were unaware of Miss MacMulIan, who was to exert upon us a large part of the privilege of mouTdrng us into efficient school-marmsr- First ca me the shock of the conring pelling te.sts. In due time the ominous day arri ed - and Miss MacMullarl stood on the platform uttering worcls of- warning. Then the flood broke, word upon word, thick and fast ! What mental powers we bad Dreviously possessed were now drenched by the deluge, and we forgot what we did know. The results of these comprehensive tests we will leave to the fertile imagination of you, gentle reader. Before proceeding further with this narrative it is meet that we describe in some general way the character of the subject of our efforts — the Class of 1919. We, the historians, having pledged ourselves to write a strictly impartial and non-partisan account of its fortunes, nevertheless are conscientiously forced to confess tiat a more brilliant class never entered the spacious halls of Montclair Normal School. In ac- cordance with this statement, the more thoughful well-wishers of the institution have been secretly known to shake their heads in dire forebodings of the time when the class Cff 1919 having departed, its vitality will cease to enliven the school. In the first place we are all females, having had the honor of but one male student ' s company and this we enjoyed for only a few weeks in the early part of our career. Since that time, however, we have kept strictly to one sex, a fact which, no doubt, has had much to do with our brilliancy. As soon as we became settled in our daily routine we awoke to the fact that we were in need of a class president. For the Jr. B term, Dorothy Beecher was chosen President of the class, taking the general course, Florence Drucker of the Kindergarteners and Edith Freeman of the Jr. C class, which has since been united with us. During the Jr. A term, Helen Leigh and Eleanor Browning were elected as presidents of their respective classes. Dorothy Beecher having proved herself an efficient president during the Jr. B term, was re-elected to the important position of President of our Senior Class. We soon found that we could play as well as work, a fact which was evinced by the number of social events which took place. One of the most pleasant and interesting was the reception which the Jr. B class ga e in honor of the Seniors. Each Junior invited a Senior and acted as her escort throughout the afternoon. Although the Hallowe ' en party of 1917 was in the hands of the former Seniors, the Juniors ' assistance was essential. A pleasing program was given in the Auditorium and many of the witches and ghosts were represented by the latter. Then everyone repaired to the gymnasium, where the more curious might have their fortunes told, while otiiers who were interested in their present-day lives could satisfy th eir longing by par- taking of the abundant supply of cider and doughnuts. In the meantime the Athletic Asociation had sprung into existence and decided to give a musical comedy to entertain the school. Many Juniors were represented in the chorus, in which the acting was said to surpass that of professionals. By this time our career as Junior B ' s had ended, and in becoming Junior A ' s we were advancing one step more in the attainment of our final goal. The social activities of this term were of a different character. Toward the latter part of April preparations were made for the celebration of Field Day, which was to take place in May. The red letter events of this day which still linger in our memory are the famous battle for the banners, and the sudden showei and consequent flight of the audience and performers alike to the shelter of the building. As a result of the entire contest the Seniors won first place and the Junior A ' s second place. Closely following this event, another, equally interesting and important, altho ' far different, took place. The Pageant, Ulysses and Nausicaa, which was given on the campus, was written and directed by Mrs. Humphrey and Miss Fennell. The part of Ulysses was taken by Adelaide Lewinsohn, and that of Nausicaa by Ruth Keator, both members of our class. Many Greek maidens and nymphs danced and sang. The tine quality of the singing- and dancing, the beautiful costumes and the picturesque surroundings combined to make this a most pleasing pageant. In many ways our career here has been an unusual one. Probably the work of no class has been so broken-in-upon by unusual happenings as has ours. But these are strenuous times and the effects are felt in everything. Years from now we will look back and say, It was during the Great War that we were school girls at Montclair Normal, and we will recount with pleasure the associations that we had with the times. There was the enforced vacation due to the coal shortage and as a result we must needs come to school on Saturday and lose much of our Easter vacation to make up the time. In our Senior B term came the flu vacation, and then that day of all days .... Peace Day. We gained an extra day ' s vacation by the false alarm of peace on the seventh of November. Every- one was so elated that work was out of the question. We all met in the assembly hall to celebrate. By the time we reached home our spirits had abated somewhat, for much to our disgust the report had started that the whole affair was a rumor. Plowever, we still smiled for everyone felt that it was merely a matter of :i few days until it would be true. Much to our delight, our dreams came true the following Monday. Of all jubilant crowds, ours was the happiest. After a short time the whole school disbanded to celebrate to the best of its ability. The cele- brating certainly must have been satisfactory judging from conversations of the following day. One of the unique events of this term was the staging of Miss Civilization, by the Athletic As- sociation. Miss Lewinsohn, our future celebrity, coached and staged the entire performance. We predict in Addie a future Belasco. Hallowe ' en was not what we had hoped it would be. Miss Fennell had planned an elaborate program, but much to our chagrin. flu interfered, and the result was that two-thirds of the program could not be given. The program as it finally was presented, consisted of a most unusual and interesting ghostly procession. Some of our trials were forever consigned to the warmer regions, and our joys found a haven in Jove ' s palace. The toys of those far-distant years of our childhood came to life on the afternoon of December twenty- third, when Tunothy Tackhammer ' s shop awakened for the Seniors ' amusement. The constant tin soldiers were remarkably life-like and entirely satisfactory. Probably ' the most important event in our Senior year was our class dance. For weeks beforehand our dreams centred themselves about certain visions of bright colors, filmy gowns and white shirt-bosoms. u,hich dreams became a reahtv in the form of a howling success on the evening of January twenty-fourth, nineteen nineteen. In spite of the excellent music provided by the Jazz Band, advantage was taken ot the kindergarten room which had been especially arranged for - indoor sports, It was comfortably furnished and pictures and pennants adorned the walls. The effect was further enhanced by the subdued lights; while special seats were reserved in the corner of the gymnasium for a crtain exclusive young lady and her partner. Having been duly advertised by a huge placard, these seats were used to the best advantage. When the inevitable bell announced the hour for closing, all were agreed that the e emng had passed only too quickly. In manv ways our career has been an eventful one. X ' arious changes in the school have taken place and we have been ' made to suffer some privations. Near the end of our Junior B term. Miss MacMullan was called from the head of the English department to be the mistress of a home. But somehow fortune favored us and Miss Fennel! was ready to take her place. During our Junior A term Miss Scatchard left us for a similar reason. Then Miss Andem terminating her short but successful career here in a like m anner left us at the end of the term. Roman conqueror in the days of old never received a more thrilling and far- sounding triumph than the Class of 1919 gave to Miss Andem on her last day with us when they bore the blushing bride-to-be in triumph to her room after chapel. A third privation came in our Senior year when Dr. Monroe answered the call of his country and had a share in making it possible to form a just and lasting peace. However, we were permitted to enjoy his instruction for a short time before we departed. During our stay at Normal School Miss Morris, assistant instructor in psychology. Miss Bull in the physical training department. Miss Aagason in the English department, and Miss Childs, who is taking Miss Anderson ' s place in the Art department, have been added to the faculty. As we look back upon our whole career from our present position, it comes to us that we have reason to doubt the soundness of that old saying, happy are they whose annals are simple, for our annals have not been thus, but we have indeed been happy here. We have but one wish — may those to come be as happy. Charlotte Bruns, EmEline Benard, Anna Seaman. Class Elections Favorite Teacher 1. Daddy Stone 2. Miss McKinley Most Popular 1. Dorothy Beecher 2.

THE JUNIOR-A CLASS The Junior A-Class Known as Peppy S-U-C-C-E-S-S — Seniors, Seniors, Seniors! Oh ! of course, we don ' t blame you for being interested ! This is the class which will bring honor and fame to Montclair. How could we help it when we have as our inspiration the dignified and precedent-breaking example of our present Senior Class? We are as yet but buds. In our Senior term, as befits upper classmen, we shall blossom in all our splendor. So far we have made a promising beginning. Glance about — here, the hockey and basketball teams, the Glee and Mandolin Clubs ; there, the sororities, the various exhibitions and entertainments. Al- ways among the ranks do you find members of our class. Who did the most knitting for the Red Cross. ' Who did a large majority of war work? Who gave up a class party in order to buy Thrift Stamps? Tl;e Junior A ' s ! We do not and shall not forget the Seniors. Ycu are, indeed, our shining light. ' Our confidence in you is too great to ever doubt your complete success. Accept our sincere good wishes for your happiness. I. M. P., Feb., 1920. THE CLASS ENTERING IN SEPTEMBER The Junior B-Class We, the Junior B ' s, entered the Montclair State Normal School in September as the incoming class usually does — green, unsophisticated, ignorant, willing souls, eager to learn. A few weeks passed by. and we were here, we wtre there, we were everywhere. They couldn ' t have kept us out of one school activity if they had wanted to. How could we help it when we had such talent? ' e found members of our class on the school hockey team. To tell the truth, the majority of the latter team were Juniors. Not only have we distinguished ourselves in all lines of athletics, but also in the Glee Club and Mandolin Club. We furnished chorus singers, soloists and pianists. And, of course, many of the most talented are holding back to surprise the rest of the school later. But, Seniors, we, the class of nineteen hundred twenty owe a great deal to you, and intend to follow many of the examples that you have set for us. ' e have enjoyed being here at Montclair as your schoolmates. When you leave school life and enter into life ' s school, may you each have as successful a career as you have had at Montclair State Normal School. THE GLEE CLUB Tke Glee Club UR normal school song-birds (Miss McKinley ' s, not Dr. Robison ' s) have entertained us delightfully on at least two occasions. At the Christmas entertainment they warbled to the enjoyment of ail, while at Commencement they were the white angels whose songs inspired the graduates. Neither should the talented artists of our Mandolin Club be forgotten. Their Children ' s Symphony at Christmas was most realistically intrepreted. This same selection was rendered at the Teachers ' Club of Montclair. The earnest work of Miss McKinley with these two organizations is surely appreciated. THE PI SIGMA SOCIETY Pi Sigma Society The Pi Sigma Society is the oldest in the school and is well known for its untiring activity. For the last two years the sorority dance has been a much anticipated event, the proceeds of which have been for the benefit of the Red Cross. Our efforts have also been directed toward refugee work. The present members are ; Eleanor Browning, President; Lucille MetzlER, Vice-President; AddiE Ford, Secretary; Helen Leigh, Treasurer. Dorothy Beecher Marion Schuyler Helen Halliday Sara Smith Helen Werner Edith Freeman Emily Allen Lucille Chamberlain Emiline Benard Isabel Parker Katharyn MacDonald Katharyn Updike Jean Bond Evelyn Bennett Marion Chamberlain Blanche Almberg Jane Brown Mildred Libby Margaret Perrine Hazel Martin Grace Aldritch Ruth Smock Naomi Young Marion Bennett Beatcice Bell iiuTH Hutchinson Adelaide Lewinsohn Emily Briggs Beatrix Richardson Henrietta Slim Marjorie Berdan Our Society is proud of its spirit and loyalty. It is our hope that it may ever continue, a friendly hand of welcome for all of the new school-mates, a pleasant and heli)ful memory to the old. Beta Kappa Phi HE BETA KAPPA PHI sorority wa? organized in the fall of 1917 to be the Delta Chapter. The other chapters are Alpha, Beta, and Gamma. The first meeting was held Februarjf 26th, 1918, with the following merrbers present: Mildred Cronk, Eleanor Flitcroft, Ruth Keator, Hazel Martin, Isabel Morrison, Berenice Nickersok Nellie Rushton, Anna Seaman. The first business to be transacted was the election of officers : President — Ruth Keator. Vice-President — Mildred Cronk. Secretary — Anna Seaman. Treasurer — Hazel Martin. Historian — BERENICE Nickerson. Our regular business meetings are held every first and third Tuesday in the month. The social times of our sorority are numerous and most enjoyable. Much gratitude is due the Paterson girls for our peppy house parties, while the theatre party at New York to see Sometime will not be forgotten. However, we endeavored to do our bit during the war. The girls worked many weeks on knitting an afghan blanket, and it was with great pride that, at the close of school in June, we presented it to the school, to be given to the Red Cross. This year with the help of several new members, Evelyn French, Elizabeth Trent, Margaret Trent, Doris Hutson and Elizabeth Aladden, we bent our efforts toward raising money for the adoption of a French war orphan, by selling good-luck charms and hand-painted cards. Now we are the proud benefactresses of a little boy, Yves Juhlia. It is with much eagerness that we are looking forward to a reunion in the form of a spring dance. So here ' s to BK and may she always be successful ! The Alpha Society Sweeter girls than these has no school ; by their candy sales we judge them. In this way they have earned thirty-five dollars, with which to fulfill their pledge of that amount to the Wai Fund. For its members Alpha h.as had many pleasures — a doggie roast, a theater party, a social afternoon, and other jolly times. May next year ' s sisters prove as merry a group as these.

HOCKEY Hockey is, without a doubt, the one sport in which the largest number of our athletes take an active part. Many a hard-fought inter-class game was played during those radiant autumnal afternoons. Nor can we leave unmentioned, although they were defeats, those games played with the Montclair High School girls, for there was exhibited fine determination, fair play, :ind earnest competition. BASKETBALL Last, but not least, in the way of sports at Montclair Normal School, is basketball, the ever-active rival of hockey. We are proud of our exciting victory over West Orange. We must also compliment the girls for their splendid playing in the game with Glen Ridge. ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION TENNIS One of the favorite sports at Moiitclair State Mormal School is tennis, and on almost any clear day lU the spring and fall one can see girls in middies and bloomers dashing around the courts. To add to the interest we have two tournament.s every year — singles in the fall and doubles in the spring. The enthusiastic players of our class have paiticipated in all three tournaments. The first, in the fall of 1917, was won by Elsie Baker, then a Senior, who defeated ' inifred Barrett of our class. In the spring the double championship was won by Mildred Libby and ' inifred Barrett when they defeated Berenice Nickerson and Helen Werner. Our last tournament took place under difficulties, for the flu vacation and peace days mterfered until the finals were played on December 2nd. However, the sets were lively, and were won by Winifred Barrett, who defeated Naomi Young. GYMNASIUM EXHIBITS In January, 1918, the Normal School gave its anual gymnasium exhibition. The program arranged by Miss Weston, Miss King and Miss Scatchard, w;is an excellent demonstration of individual ability, team work and school spirit. It consisted of apparatus work, teaching of elementary gymnasium by the Seniors, and several descriptive dances by the Junior sections. In January, 1919, the exhibition demonstrated the splendid ability of our budding ' student gym. teachers in directing exercises, marching, and games, the agility of the Juniors on the apparatus of tlie gymnasium, and the grace of both Juniors and Seniors in dancing. FIELD DAY, MAY 1918 Although interrupted by a heavy shower, which necessitated the continuance of the e ents in the gymnasium, the Field Day program proved a great .success. Keen but friendly competition between classes v ras the key-note of all the events. The girls practised long and strenuously for the three-legged relay race, basketball throw, and standing broad jump. The judges found it difficult to come to a decision concerning the dances. We are proud of the fact that as Junior A ' s we tied the Seniors for first place. THE HOCKEY TEAM THE BASKETBALL TEAM Class Will E, THE Senior Class of June, 1919, believing ourselves of sound mind and firm pedagogy, and altogether free from the neuroses, the mino psychoses, amentia, and other psychopathic conditioiis of child life, as well as scoliosis, kyphosis, and the like, and wishing to leave behind us such of our possessions as will most benefit posterity, do liereby will and bequeath our ephemeral property to those surviving us who will most profit thereby. First, To those instructors to whom we owe so large a debt of gratitude, we leave these fond remem- brances : — To Miss Billings, a mimiograph, to save her work; to Dr. Monroe, a rainbow necktie grading from red to purple ; to Miss Stryker, a romantic book on the Handsome Men of History ; to Miss Fennell, the courage to have her picture taken; to the physical training department, frequent visits from Dr. Maroney; to Miss McKinney, that song she loves to sing, The Beautiful Ohio ; to Miss Baker, a dictionary of compli- mentary remarks about our blackboard drawings ; to Vas. Bridge, someone to wash her dishes so she can get here in the morning before second period; to Dr. Robinson, a pair of suspenders; to Miss Woodward we allow the privilege of living in New Jersey for the rest of her life; to our greatest mathematical relation, Daddy Stone, a patent on his brilliant and original ideas, so that other authors may not steal them as soon as his books come out ; to Miss McKinley, a small olume entitled Eat and Grow Thin ; to Dr. Chapm ' s able stenographer. Miss Glantz, our favorite song, Some Day ' aiting Will End. To all the other teachers whom we have loved so dearly we leave the memory of our flower-like faces. To Dr. Chapin and to them is given our promise to cherish the ideals they have given us. Then to those who will occupy our vacant chairs in chapel, the coming Senior B ' s — to them we will, with one accord, appreciation of the good time they gave us. In gratitude therefor we give them in addition these invaluable remembrances to help tiiem thru their final year — First, the wisdom of the Senior, consisting of profound and all-embracing doubt concerning such subjects as educational measurements and the principles of pedagogy. Next, Dr. Stone ' s $4.00 lectures, twice a week, whereby they may learn the three p ' s of the perfect pedagogue : pep. personality, and ' pearance. Also, Miss Jenkins ' book on reading methods to dig out the main thought. Fourthly, the ' aliant Woman. provided she he not used as a fashion-plate. We leave them, as well, the sleep we have not enjoyed for the past few months — perfectly good, never been used at all. Finally, and most important, they are to receive our wornout lesson-plans in the all-important, all-em- bracing subject of geography, and in the intricate inductive, the explanatory, anticipatory deductive, the motiv- ated, variegated, elongated drill, the artistic, individualistic, idealistic, realistic appreciation, the observational, conversational, occupational, sensational type lesson, and last, but not least, the ever present, never pleasant review. To the Junior A ' s to be we bequeath our redhot, uncensored vocabulary gained by the constant practice of painful Palmer drills ; our skill in the art of spiriting away Miss Paterson ' s choice treasures from undei ' her eagle eye; and two tons of light head tones, at Miss McKinley ' s request. And to you, little women, and possiblv men, about to enter our temple of learning, we leave The spacious halls to run in. The chapel to talk in. The gym to dance in. The lunch-room to study in, The locker-room to eat in. The spelling-test to flunk in. Some new ideas to take in. In witness whereof the following signatures have been affixed : The Cuvss of 1919 A. Howard Scott, Class Testator. FareAvell to Our Normal School Cl,ASS PoEM Farewell to you, our Alma Mater dear, Two years have come and gone : ' tis time to part. Still let us pause before we say goodbye. To pay this slender tribute from the heart. What can we do for you, dear Normal School : What deed can pay the debt we owe to you : Yes, there is one, and that of all the highest — To your ideals forever to hold true ! Can we forget you, dear old Normal School ? Can time the memory of your image mar? The beauty of your site will ever linger, O erlooking all the country near and far. We turn the pages of our past life o ' er, Recall bright mem ' ries! live those scenes anew; With hope we touch the snow-white page to come And pray that noble deeds be marked there, too. We ' ve seen the mists rise from the vales below ; Beheld the glowing sunset in the west ; What other thoughts could such surroundings brin| Save those that are the highest and the best? For what a vast world lies before us all Of service to be wrought with heart and might ; Crowds and hosts of children ' s upturned faces Look to us for guidance and for light. Firm friendships we have formed beneath your care, Like tasks performed, and kindred battles won. Like pleasures shared with one another here Have welded us together — made us one. Our Nation ' s children lay their hands in ours ; Our task it is to lead them on to light. To you, dear School, we owe our life ' s vocation; And your ideals will guide our paths aright ! Ch.- rlotte L. Bruns. Our Fare vell Sonj s OUR DEAR OLD NORMAL SCHOOL Our dear old Normal School, We sing to you. Pride of each loyal heart. We love you, yes, we do, our school home. Long may we cherish you. Love and adore ; Sing praise and honor for evermore. Tune: Li a Jane. Chorus We have to go and you have to stay. Oh, Faculty! We have to go and you have to stay, Oh, Faculty!

Tune : K-K-K-Katy. Jimmie was an agent brave and bold. The newest thing in reading books he sold. Many a teacher fell for Jimmie ' s josh. Many were the books he sold, by gosh ! jimmie met a maiden, oh, so fair; A teacher who was trained in old Montclair. Man, she said, don ' t hand me any guff; ' Bridgie ' put me wise to all your stuff. Chorus Gimme the Aldine ! Wonderful Aldine! That ' s the only m-m-method I adore ; When the s-salesman tries to f-fool us, ' Bridgie ' says to k-k-k-kick him out the door. ' Tune: Pack Up Your Troubles. Gather up your lesson plans in your note-books And grin — grin — grin ! While you ' ve a pencil left to write some more. Begin now. girls, begin!

The gym instructor came to town And my but he was tony ! He marched us up, he marched us down, And called himself Maroney Chorus Doc Maroney, keep it up. You ' re doing fine and dandy ; Mind the music and the step And with the girls be handy. Every time he made us move It took a ton of powder; He made a noise like father ' s gun Only a nation louder ! Chorus He put us through a lot of steps And ordered us about And in the morning we were stiff, As stiff as all get out ! Chorus Tune: ' Last Long Mile Oh, it ' s not the work that you never dare to shirk When they pile it on your shoulders, Nor the notes galore that keep a-getting more That make you feel your brains are growing older ; And it ' s not the nights with the midnight lights That keep you feeling blue, nor The talks of teachers to us poor helpless creatures, It ' s that consarned U Tune: Old Oaken Bucket. How dear to my heart is the ' alley Road Car When fond recollections present it to •iew, The jams and the jounces, the jolts and the jar, And all the high-jinks that a trolley can do. The crank}- conductor who pushed us forward. The straps where we himg for an hour or more. The old-fashioned trolley, the rickety trolley. The ' alley Road Trollev that made us so sore. Tune: Oh. How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning. Oh, how I hate to get tip in the morning. To write those drills to be handed in. Oh, the hardest thing of all Is to make that beastly scrawl. Slide, loop and around. Slide, loop and around. Slide, loop and around, swing off. Some day I ' m going to murder old Palmer, Some day you ' re going to see me grin. I ' ll amputate his lines a ' ld curves That always get upon my nerves And write the rest of my days like sin. (Repeat with following last lines.) And then I ' ll get the other Jack, The guy that sent our budgets back. And write the rest of my days like sin. |T came to pass that the year-book was to be printed, and behold, there was in it no staff picture. That the volume be not deprived of its staff of hfe, eleven of us journeyed to Newark, where our portraits might be made. We believe in economy and speed. No Valley Road highway robbery for ours! Gentle readers, you should have seen us trundle toward our destination in a Goodyear truck, for those of you whom we have knocked in these pages would have especially enjoyed seeing us behind the bars. Yes, we dignified maiden ladies climbed into a young cattle-car, and sped down the horrified streets of several New Jersey towns. Meanwhile, as we perched on the cargo, our usual wit flowed freely. I feel as if we ought to be in a circus parade said Dot. Sure enough, replied Briggsy. Benny here is the snake-charmer. Nonsense, put in Scotty, we ' re all tigers. I feel like prowling around and waving my tail. Won ' t we have memories after this ride! thrilled Kate. Looney grunted, as we jumped oved a Valley Road car that was in our way. Yt h.ave callouses, more likely. So we progressed through Upper and Lower Montclair, Bloomfield. East Orange and Orange on our Seeing New Jersey tour, Miss Winifred Barrett pointing our the chief points of interest in these municipalities. L et this have a lesson for all. Why save up your hard-earned bucks for a travel fund when you can beat your way to Europe as the captain ' s mate, or get a lift from a sea-plane? Arrived at the studio we awaited the pleasure of the artist. In order that we might be draped eft ' ectively he called for the most high, so we shoved Kate to the foreground. H ' m, she is rather long and drawn-out, remarked the photographer. Airily and gracefully he took our picture. Look at it, gentle reader. You can see these adventuresses svith your own eyes ! The ordeal over, with few casualties, we extorted an ad from the head of the estab- lishment and made our way to Childs. Of course, we obeyed directions, and watched oiir hats, but as these were on our heads, the eye-strain was severe. It is reported that the entire company con umed two rounds of penwipers apiece, with other dishes to suit the individual tastes. Therefore a mere matte of missing dinner did not bother us. Cheerful, tho broke, we wended our homeward way. — L Corridor Ech oes Advertisements Personieied Vogue Benuce Nickersan Spalding ' s Sporting Goods Maron Benneit Dromedary Dates .
