Date — February, 1927. Aim — 1. To take up our life profession, to be dignified school marms. 2. To pile up knowledge and methods for future use. 3. To do our best for M. N. S. Motivation — June 1, 1925: . Entrance Exams — Devices : 1. English. Write a theme on the feelings of a Junior B when asked to identify 499 twigs, and find all glacial scratches within 10 miles of the Normal School. 2. Arithmetic. There were 75 Senior B ' s In, and 85 Senior B ' s Out, and all of the Senior A ' s were Out. How many would be In if the 85 Senior B ' s Out went In and the 75 Senior B ' s In went Out ; thus forcing the Senior A ' s Out In? 3. Spelling. Warning, office, flunk. Preparation — Sept. 8, 1926 The Junior B Class of ' 27 came tripping up the mountain to participate in the activities of their first day at M. N. S. We had passed the exams, and each one felt himself a unit of the great project. Every project must be launched so our officers were elected : President, Margery Cruden ; Vice-President, Margaret Mitcham : Secretary, Alice Everetts ; Treasurer, Lucia Torrey. Our first impressions of M. N. S. were most favorable. It did not take us long to get into the spirit of things. Work? We had plenty! How many afternoons we did spend chasing angleworms and butterflies with Miss Barrett and Miss Woodward ! We could name every specimen of animal and vegetable life on the campus (at least we thought so). Due to Miss Huntting we could forecast the weather and pick out suitable to go hunting — we could even wet our fingers and tell which way the wind was blowing. But all work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy ; so the Junior A ' s took pity upon us and gave a party in our honor. On December 15 the Junior A ' s were entertained by us. Our first party was a great success, due to the cooperation of the group. One term gone and now we find ourselves Junior A ' s — still in the prepara- tion and eager to go on with new officers to relieve the old : President, Alene 1927 P g : ;?333S 1l MONTCLARION Unbehaun : Vice-President, Mintrun Peterson ; Secretary, Marion Jacobsen ; Treasurer, Margery Cruden. We have been warned that this is to be our most difficult term and do we find it so ? Yes, indeed ! First comes push-pull-day and night push pull — for way off in the distance we see a Palmer Certificate. Hygiene posters, cotton projects, Injuns and Injuns, La la here, and la la there, and multi- plication tables until we are so swamped with work we hardly know where to turn. Again we have our social activities to help us out, a Jttnior B party, a Junior A party, and a Farewell to the Senior A ' s and B ' s. Many other diversions there were too — Budget, Year Book, Rings and Pins (what a time we had). Outs and Ins (what a thrill to hear what they are doing and to realize that we are now prepared to go out in the field next September). Presentation Some have been in and are now out, others have been out and are now in. The officers of the entire Senior term are : President, Ann Brewer ; Vice-Presi- dent, Elizabeth Cheney ; Secretary, Dorothy Holman ; Treasurer, Hope Robertson. We are Senior B ' s, busy with our school work and with Class Day, which is sure to be a howling success with Kay Healy as Chairman and Miss Barrett as Class Advisor. Our project is still being carried on; no interest has lagged and we feel that if has been a wholehearted, purposeful activity, brought about by some felt need; namely, to do our best and give all we could to M. N. S. The testing of results will come next September when we hope to find each and every one of us in a class of his own, never fearing the coming of a supervisor at some unexpected moment. I wouldn ' t mind teaching all alone — If I could come back to you; You are so fine, I have you in my mind. In everything I try to do. When I look out toward the hill Where you stand, I feel so lonely, ' Cause Montclair Normal is the school for me. And it ' s her that I love only. ALMA BUSPIELL, ' 27.

There were about three hundred and fifty entrants, which was equal to the number of students already in the school, and it was necessary to divide them up into eight sections. ' Ann Lyons was elected to lead the class through the first term as Class President; Jane Hedden was chosen for Vice-President, and Helen Rightmire for Secretary. In October the Junior B ' s were entertained in the gymnasium by the Junior A ' s at a party which afforded an opportunity for them to get acquainted and at which they all had a delightful time. In return the Junior B ' s gave a party in honor of the Junior A ' s in November, the success of which was aided by specialty dances and recitations by members of the Junior B Class, and the quantity of ice cream that allowed everyone to have all she wanted. The Junior B One ' s, Two ' s, and Three ' s, under the guidance of Miss Zachray. successfully edited a paper called, The Montclarion, of which it is justly proud. It seems that such a paper had been attempted or suggested before, but it did not materialize until this class enthusiastically undertook the project. The problem of selecting a class advisor was brought to a close at a very spirited meeting on December 2, when Miss Troxell was elected to fill the position. We must not forget the work of the Junior B representatives in soccer, for they surprised everyone by the great number of aspirants for places on the team, and maintained a fine record by defeating the Junior A ' s and playing a tie game with the Seniors. At the end of each month, a banner is given to the section that has, as a whole, kept the best posture for that month. Twice the Junior B Sevens captured the banner, and the other sections are striving hard to win the banner for their room. All the Junior B sections have cooperated with the school and outside organizations by buying and dressing dolls to send little children in Japan. They have been willing and eager to act in accordance with the standards of Montclair Normal School, and to help lift its banner high.

MONTCLARION Dormitory Life Edward Russ Hall is the one dormitory that M. S. N. S. affords. The girls living there are considered the luckiest among the school because dorm life makes up a big part of school life. In the dorm we get to know well all the girls and live like a big family with our work and our fun. The social life here is made up of parties, dances, feed clubs, meetings and just informal gatherings in the living room after dinner to dance and talk. Initiation is a big event in the dorm — new girls hate it and old girls love it but it ' s always fun to look back upon. We all love our matron Mrs. Snedecker, and our nurse Miss Capron, and go to them for all hurts and pains whether physical or mental. Such a large family must have some head and our head is the Council elected by the girls themselves. This year the members are: Betty Freeland, president; Evelyn Freeland, Secretary; Ann Brewer, Margaret Lynde, Beatrice Brodhead and Betty Wood. CATHERINE M. DAWSON ' 27. Page Eighty-Eight MONTCLARION m The Student Council Eleanor Dunne President Ruth E. Smith Vice-President Louise Pfaff Secretary Richard Beck Treasurer The Student Government Association of Montclair State Normal School is an organization — of the students, by the students, and for the students. In- augurated in February, 1925, it has tended to organize the school as a community Evolving from an Honor Society, it has developed into a medium for expressing the ideas of the students, and has set a criterion of honor and cooperation. The constitution has provided for the varied phases of school life by sub- dividing the government into nine branches ; each division tending toward per- fecting the purposes of the whole. A committee in which every section of the school is represented, guides the work of its particular branch of the organization and works with the faculty for the welfare of the student body. The committees are : Executive, Eligibility, Finance, Program, Service, Social, Curriculum, Bulletin Board and Publicity. This form of democratic administration has tended to unify the students in upholding the high ideal of Montclair Honor, and has become a means of broad- ening and educating the students in school activity and control.

It has been its policy to present one play a month. The October play was. A Penny a Flower. In November the club, under the able leadership of Mrs. Humphrey, was instru- mental in putting on the pageant held in Edgemont Park on Armistic Day. In the Spring of each year the club also presents a pageant. Last year Robin Hood was given and was largely attended. A play contest is being sponsored for which a prize of ten dollars is being given for the best one-act play submitted. The winning play will be given in January. The meetings take the form of socials, one of which was held November 15. The personnel of the club formerly was made up of whomsoever desired membership but this year the procedure has been changed. Try-outs were held in the early part of the year, those wishing to become members being required to recite a short poem or selection. The governing body is the Council, consisting of two members from each class, and a president and a secretary-treasurer elected within the council. We are sure this organization renders much to the school life through its valuable dramatic entertainment. HELEN ' ARD ' ll.

Carter, the proficient accompanist of the Club. The membership is composed of girls who have been selected by Miss McKinley. This year an unusual but efficient plan has been worked out. Formerly girls with late classes could not attend Glee Club rehearsals, and were thus deprived of a great privilege. At present, a late Glee Club meeting is held after the regular club rehearsal ; in this way, both girls who have late classes, and volunteers, are enabled to be a part of the club. It has become a regular custom for the Glee Club to provide Commencement music. In addition, the club frequently sings in Assembly on special occasions. Every girl who is a member of the Glee Club considers that membership a very special honor, and all will agree that the associations formed, and the benefits received, in this organization are of a lasting and immeasurable character.

Its main purpose is to arouse an interest in the worlds of music, art, drama, and literature as well as in political current events. Our programs this term have been especially instructive and inspiring due to several contributions by the faculty. Miss McKinney gave us a most delightful talk on her visit to Spain. Mrs. Humphrey, ever ready with something new in dramatics, gave us some valuable pointers with regard to the latest and most popular plays in New York. Other topics to receive special notice were the Dover Explosion, the Sesqui-Centennial at Philadelphia, the election, and Queen Marie ' s visit to the United States. The most recent venture on the part of the Up-to-Daters is the dressing of a doll for the annual Japanese Festival. She has been appropriately named Florence Ruth Stryker, in honor of Miss Florence Stryker, our able faculty advisor, and Miss Ruth Keisler, our ' ice-President. sg ESgS 5 f? 1Q27 i MONTCLARION Science Club Betty A. Schoonmaker President Kitty May Cane Vice-President Ruth Jillson Secretary The Science Club was formed one year ago to give those students especially interested in Nature Study and Science a chance for further study in these lines. Its activities have included regular monthly meetings, providing speakers for the assembly period, arrangement of exhibits, camping trips, hikes, and picnics. At the regular meetings, both interesting and instructive talks about first hand experiences are given by members of the Club. Recently, when the school was host to the New Jersey Elementary School Principals Association, the club pre- pared exhibits of methods used to make Nature Study interesting. Our picnics and hikes furnish both instruction and pleasure. Those who have attended our week-end trips to Wyanokie and Thendara, headquarters of the Green Mountain Club, know how much is gained from one of these trips. Many phases of science are studied not from books, but in the open, face to face with Nature. Our picnics which are attended by members of the faculty, afford us a great deal of pleasure and enjoyment. The Science Club owes much of its success to Miss Woodward and her capable management. . fa|L ; e £ : - - -:? 1927 F ? 33S3 IB Page Nincty-FoKT MONTCLARION The Literary Ciub Grace Kirkpatrick President Catherine Firling Vice-President Johanna Engel Secretary The aim of this society shall be to provide an opportunity for enjoyment and to develop an appreciation of all forms of literature. The club has published one book of poetry and is completing a second one. Any Normal School student may contribute toward this book, which will thus be composed entirely of school talent. A number of fine programs have been enjoyed by the clul) members this term. In the first of these Miss Ann Coulter, in a most pleasing manner, reviewed a book called The Perennial Bachelor. We also had some interesting discussions in which the duh took part, one being on Christopher Morley, an author who seems to be quite a favorite with many of the girls. Another was on the different types of poetry. At one of our meetings Miss McKinney gave a delightful talk of Longfellow. She was able to do this in a most interesting way as she visited Naples, the city which Longfellow loved and portrayed so wonderfully in a poem. She also spoke of the English poets, Shelley and Keats, their love for Italy and Italy ' s love for them. Pictures and pamphlets which Miss McKinney collected on her tour were used to illustrate these points. - s -:t 1927 g - 3S3S3 i m Pafic Xiitcty-Fi: MONTCLARION C Club Ruth Keisler President Frieda Stotz Vice-President Dorothea Hollmann Secretary Miss Crawford Instructor This term, for the first time, a club has been formed for the purpose of studying the various phases of visual education.

The points also score in the Plonor Society. Have you ever thought about the aims of G. A. A. ? They are surely worthwhile and are as follows : to foster good sportsmanship, further interest in athletics, and to encourage a feeling of good fellowship among the girls of the school. Thus, and rightly, we hail the G. A. . . as a great organization. Our two faculty advisors are the renowned Miss Duke and INTiss Hepburn who sure do help us to get into the game.

The personnel of this organization is made up of one member from every class section in the school, the librarian, and the faculty advisor. The members of this organization prove a great help to the librarian in many ways. Each member has one period a week, during which time she gives her time to the library. Her duties are varied; she may sort and file library slips, shelve books, paste, file current material and many other things. It is the business of the Library Council to make any new amendments to the Constitution of the Council that they may think advisable. One of the most recent was concerning over-due books. The result of the amendment is that any over-due book will cost the offender 10 cents a day. If the book is fiction the tax is 2 cents per day. iaL gggg ; - -: 1Q27 3 - Pane One Hundred a GIRLS ' SPORTS mm MONTCLARION BASKETBALL SQUAD Girls ' Sports The class of June ' 27 has made a very good record in its sports.

When we vi ere Junior A ' s, in addition to defeating the invincible Senior A team, on which the stars, Shen Somers, Gen Hannigan and Sophie Greenburg played, we defeated the Junior B ' s and Senior B ' s. After completing our inter-class games, the school team defeated Paterson Normal by a score of 41 — 15, and the well-known Montclair A. C., by a score of 26 — 18. The baseball season started out with two faculty games — faculty vs. the girl ' s team and faculty vs. the boy ' s team. The day for the girl ' s game with the faculty arrived, and after much excitement and rushing around, we discovered that we were no match for the faculty team, especially with Mr. Meese, Mr. Grossnickle and Mr. Sprague playing against us. The faculty, however, was defeated by our boy ' s team, which somewhat raised our spirits. After the faculty games, the Junior A ' s defeated the Junior B ' s, thus ending our successful season of sports.

It was after a Red Cross Drive in which Theta led the membership that the presi- dent was sent to Dr. Chapin for recognition as a school sorority. Her mission was successful and the club became officially Theta Pi Delta. The prime purpose of this sorority is to promote the Montclair spirit ; a spirit of loyalty to our school and cooperation with our supervisors and class- mates. Since its organization, Theta has endeavored to fulfill its purpose in every possible way. Like the other sororities, at the beginning of each term Theta gives teas and card parties. Once a year the active members meet the alumnae at a luncheon held in the Hotel McAlpin. It is a social meeting, the old and new girls being l rought into a closer relationship by the friendly atmosphere that prevails. 1927 Pane Otic Hlimircd and Eh-xc MONTCLARION m [ -y- 1927 E : 33s: l!B | Pai c One Hundred and T ' ,fclve MONTCLARION M Come eaku and avoid the rush Jokes Teacher (Having played To a Water Lily on ' ictrGla) — Joe, can you tell me what time that was writen ?

Costumes, decorations, atmosphere and spirit, and all suggested the wintry scene and the merry gaity of a skating party and social gathering of a bunch such as Montclair girls are. The whole class entered to the tune of Jingle Bells. Ann Brewer and Babe Cheney, our President and Vice-President, pre- sided over the carnival royall}% Ann playing the royal queen, ' and Babe the gallant king. Kay Healy and Frankie Jennings as court jesters started things and kept them going all during the program along with Kay Aro, who officiated at the piano and carried us through with our songs. First came the welcome from the jesters, and welcomed every one was. And then — enter the King and Queen to be crowned with much dignity and ceremony. From this time forth Ann ruled supreme with her Winter icicle, directing every act and movement. Each girl was dressed in white from top to toe. Each fellow formed a pleasing contrast by wearing a suit of red with black boots. The first act, given by the Senior B fours was an interpretation of Physical Ed., its aims, teachings and ideals. As Heppie, Dot Haviland was great, and the class proved that for once they could make a good showing in Physical Ed. Next came the Penmanship skit and skit it was. The costumes of white, were very effective, expressing in push and pull m ovement some of the pains of our Junior B term. Penholders were the symbol of our high ideals and The Certificate the goal — the motivation. The whole act portrayed Penmanship as is, at Montclair Normal. Clever songs added to general tone of the act. Senior B Threes put on a history act which had to be seen in order to be appreciated. We hope you saw it. The Men ! Well, the men would. A silhouette behind the screen of 3 touching interpretation of my last operation Updyke was the suffering patient who risked his life under the hands of the noted surgeon, John Browne Twichell, D. F. Such sawing and hacking was never seen before except in Miss Crawford ' s manual art classes. The dorm crowd had a meeting typical of the usual thing at Eddie Russ. The first and foremost excitement — new rules from Mr. Sprague — were well received with a song. Capie came in for her part of the pro- gram and Scrappy got his tail stepped on. 1927 Paqc One Hundred and Tzvcnty-Eight i|l g s j MQNTCLARION K - - 3s l j Kay Hinni supplied us with the usual song- and dance which everyone expects with pleasure and anticipation at any dorm meeting, and Alene Umbehaun rendered the popular Cherie and Dinah in a very touching manner. Eddie Broadwell sent us to bed by appearing as the well known slogan, Time to retire. To conclude our Class Day performance we flooded the halls with copious tears shed at the hour of parting from our friends and Alma Mater. Tune — Where d You Get Those Eyes Who says, My dear child, Who says, Don ' t be wild, Who says, Stop that sh-sh-sh-ing, Who says, For it, of it, in it, Those A ' s — those B ' s, how we do prize, Those D ' s — those U ' s, how we do hide. Oh ! try and get an A — try and get a B, It ' s easy talking honey. When you try it ' s not so funny ; Take our advice and study hard. Then you ' ll have an Al card. Tune— Tonight ' s My Night With Baby We can ' t go out — nor turn about, Nor even try that movie out. Tonight ' s our night with history. Those tests Miss Stryker loves to give. Tomorrow we will have a quiz, Tonight ' s our night with history. She just calls them easy — but one thing we ' ll tell you.

Paoc One Hundred and Thirty MONTCLARIQN K - s sss m My Dream of a Big Free School Last night I was dreaming, I ' m shuddering yet Of a school that you may have heard And just like a photoplay upon my wall, This scene I saw it all. It was just a dream you see, A night-mare it seemed to me. I saw ever} ' child running free and wild In my dream of the Big Free School; I saw teachers there grown worn with care In my dream of the Big Free School; I saw projects many, and teachers ready, What an interest to secure ; Uninterested kids doing just as they pleased. In my dream of the Big Free School. The children all rushed in like a wild football team. And each took the seat he pleased ; They eyed up the teacher with looks of disdain, And thus did they complain, And their cry I can ' t forget, Do we still have that project? I saw every child bored to death and wild, In my dream of a big Free School ; I saw topics there the child wished to prepare. In my dream of a Big Free School; I saw spitballs flying and the teacher crying, What do you think you ' re here for? I saw the teacher ' s pets shouting he done that, In mv dream of a Big Free School. - ;g E g - :? 1Q27 Ptuie 0}ic Huiuircd and Thi. p = ES = M0NTCL7 RI0N I Farewell Song — Tune — Pussywillow Dear Alma Mater, Now that we ' re leaving you, Memories of school days Be with us always, When we have left your walls.

I owes nearly every- body in this here ole town already. But, said one of the collectors, don ' t you think you owe the Lord something, too? I does sister, indeed, said the old man, but He ain ' t pushing me like my other creditors is. — Western Christian Advocate. A highbrow is a person educated beyond his intelligence. Someone has observed that the diiiference between men and women smoking is that men seem to enjoy it just as much when nobody is watching them. — Nuggets. Admission I like girls who paint and use plenty of perfume. I like to see girls eat candy and chew gum. Women who spend a lot of time over ice cream sodas and light lunches appeal to me. I enjoy seeing girls spend their father ' s money freely. Girls who buy all the latest books and magazines are not to be censured. Nor do I believe in frowning on the girl who buys cigarettes in large quantities. I own the drug store on the corner. — James A. Sanaker.
