PAGE Fomrv .Eisast Their Way I'm sure you've noticed day by day That the Faculty have a peculiar way. For one wants this, and one Wants that, And one Wants that, and this, And one wants neither one of them. Oh, isn't school life bliss? And she says, Sit when you recite, And he says, Stand, young man, And she says, Do not talk so much, And he says, Tell all you can. I'm su1'e you've noticed day by day That the Faculty have a peculiar way. . Eva Jane Padley One doctor is better than two, but three are fatal. PAGE FORTY-ONE U .liliei Q That she can be a friend to every girl And make her feel the Hall's her home That she can care for thoughtless students, And make them feel the joy of ilvork- . This is her wish. Williston Hall is a home for many Normal school girls-happy, wide awake girls. Why are they happy? Not alone because their Hall is beautiful or their work pleasant, but because someone's heart is strong in maintaining the joyous life within the Hall-someone who has not forgotten her college days, Miss Branch. Though the Head of Williston Hall, Miss B1'anch, never seems too busy to know her girls. She has time to listen to schoolgirl chatter, to laugh at funny stories told about prac- tice teaching, to play tiddle-de-winks on the floor, to win a game of rook, or to dance to non-jazz music. She has time to cheer the lonesome girls and to sympathize with those who are grief stricken. And all the time she does not forget the charge that is hers to keep. Her rules are few but they command obedience. Marion Davis. I T PAGE FORTY-TWO .::..-.'-..ff..fs:ar ' ' .. fa 'Wwe'-ww-H ... ':. l xj-Y. ' .--fix . ' l -3 51.5. ' . V' .1 , '3' 'P . .. -s Sim M.

PAGE FORTY-FOUR J u 1 . 5 Q Our Good Time On arriving at N. I. S. N. S. in September, 1919, and seeing so many strange faces of both Seniors and Faculty, we, timid Juniors, individually wondered if we should ever know one another. The Y. W. C. A. came to our 1'escue with a get acquainted party or mixer in the gymnasium. In order to learn the names of our future friends we pinned on us cards on which was written our names and home addresses. It was embarrass- ing to listen to the questions the Seniors asked us. Are you from Kingston? I've never heard of the place? How do you like it here? Are you homesick? Then we became a class. There being no boys in the class it was up to the girls to be the leaders. Marion Davis, president, Ila Rice, vice president, Gladys Keating, secretary and Mildred Coon, treasurer, should- ered the responsibilities. Then came the Junior party which was for Juniors alone. We had a better time when the dignified Seniors were not around. Our New Year's party was better yet. Father Time walked solemnly into our midst and not feeling at ease disappeared. Then in pranced the little New Year. The stunts they pulled off at the Junior-Senior party! And the good time afterward! The punch bowl whose contents were delicious was a popular place. When Maytime came and trees and flowers were in blossom, girls gay- ly dressed wound the Maypole, while others with ribbons Hying danced joyfully. What a time we had getting ready for the Kid party! The stories told by Eula Jandell and Mary Hayes were a treat. The red and green stick candy tasted so good! The custom is that the Juniors must sometime appear on the stage. So we presented the play, Master Pierre Patelin and The Man Who Married a Dumb Wife. For the Junior Prom which was held in the spacious dining and liv- ing rooms of Williston Hall we had an abundance of men and music. It was fun to be a Junior! In November we had a hard time party. As usual the refreshment tables where cider and doughnuts were served, were popular. Of our Basket Ball men we W61'e proud for they brought us honor. Mt. Morris, Wheaton, Joliet and a few more schools have found out of what stuff Normal is made. In the month of February our thoughts turned back to colonial days and we had a good time at the Washington party the Faculty gave the school. It was loads of fun getting.ready but we had a better time in the gym. As We look over the calendar of our two years here we recall the poem Dr. Cook loved so well and say, We have had a good, good time. The purest pleasures lie within the circle of useful occupation.

The waking birds shake from their wings the hush of night. The pearly dew turns into diamonds. The rising sun The crystal air, The breath of life Exhale the greatness of the world. It is morning! Hark! Hark! We hear the call, The call of life-the vibrant voice of life. Hear how it calls- Answer it, students? We answer as oneg we answer as one. Our old work is done. We look towards the sun. We are going, Normal- Will you not miss us, Normal? We will not forget you, Normal. And in every year that passes we will save for you one day. To come back and to remember of our work and of our play. It shall not be one day only that we save to think of you g But in everything we do-in the duties of each day, We will turn and be reminded how these pleasant thoughts once grew, How when we were little younger you with care laid out our way. So we do not feel in sadness but in rather tender joy, That this moment is the parting. It is morning! It is morning! It is morning! John Garner.

He hesi- tates at the bridal bushes and does not know just where to go. He thinks he will go back. He turns about only to see girls coming up both avenues toward' the schoolg so the safest way out is to go to the main ent1'ance. He goes in cautiously and of course does not see the sign, OtIice. So in a minute he faces Wingless Victory. While admiring her, three girls approach and he makes a dash east in the hall. He bumps squarely into a girl who is emerging from the girls' cloak room. After much embarrassment and apologies he starts forward only to see three more girls coming out of the Chemistry Laboratory. To avoid these he starts upstai1's, but girls again! He wheels about and goes west down the hall, narrowly escaping girls at the main staircase by the boy's cloak room. He goes 'up the stairs and at the top of the second flight he stops and looks into the study hall. More girls! He then intends to retrace his steps down stairs but girls are coming up-so he continues his trip upstairs. Poor boy-he lands at the doors of the Art Department. Feminine voices assure him the room is nlled with girlsg but girls are still coming up the stairs. He stands there with a brave look on his face, asks the girls where the ofiice is and they willingly give him the inform- ation-'cause they are not so bad as you may think. Of course you think they are subject to being old maid school teachers. fJust try to tell them thatll Later, one of the boys gives him advice, Never try to avoid a' group of girls because you will sure bump into a dozen more in trying to make good your escape. This fellow today is trying to avoid the girls just to meet the dozen more. . Glen Halloran. Always in haste-always behind. PAGE SEVENTY Freshmen Trials Every senior has his troubles, Each junior has some care, But the poor forlorn freshmen Have much more than their share. Physics, geography, grammar, Make us study half the night, But study, study as we Will, We're always far from right. We'1'e placed in junior classes, r And act as wise as they. But oh! How can those teachers tell That wc are freshmen, say? The juniors, seniors, faculty, Are all so dignified, That when we laugh at Paul's bow tie They look at us and sigh. Well, 'twill not be long before We'll be bright seniors, too, But we'll not scorn the freshmen As the present seniors do. Irene E.

For the pointer must move busily from Minnesota to Florida, from New York and Washington to California, on down to the Panama Canal zone, still on below the equator to Chile, across to the Philippines and to China, on to France pausing to note a sacred resting place, then home again moving hither and yon until -.ve realize that the day has come, foretold by Dr. Cook, The happy day when we shall have back of us a strong body of alumni out in the world at work. To tell of their work and varied interests, would take more than A thousand and one nights. Many, teaching in crowded cities, find ways of making life easier and happier for little folk coming out of hard, untoward conditions 3 many earnestly work the true Americanization process among children of the foreign-born, some have broadened in teaching experi- ence and are counted leaders in education, whose counsels are sought. Some names we see on the pages of magazines, in story, or verse, or nature sketch, and some have achieved the writing of books. Others from the environment of their own homes in city and in country, concern them- selves with furthering the best interests of their communities, finding something to do and doing it well, it may be by scientific farming, rais- ing fine stock and seriously studying how to provide richer milk that children may be nourished, or it may be carrying the quickening knowl- edge of The Word to workers isolated in lonely mining camps in our western mountains. All, in one fashion or another, ministering to child- hood and youth. When they come back to us from their distant homes, or meet with us at some Teachers' Association, they tell us that their thoughts often travel back to their school home. Some of them sing us a refrain from a class song: O towers that stand against the sky And silent watch the clouds 'pass by, Thy name is known through deed and story. We too, we too, would bring thee added glory. We would that we might say to them, This desire you are abundant- ly fulfilling. We would that they might know, even a little, of what they mean to us, of how we are heartened by their cordial greetings and unfailing loyalty. We would tell them, if we could, of our faith and pride in their fine ambitions, of our joy in their achievements. We are glad they are our own, who dwelt for a time under our roof tree, and who now are out in the world at work. Anna Parmelee. We are led on like little children by a way we know nat. PAGE sEvEN'rv-THREE I Hark, to Mr. Meadow-lark! Ilark to Mr. Meadow-Lark! He's speaking, sir, to you. Hear him rippling from the grasses That sparkle with the dew. His throat is charged with gladness, His free heart knows no fear, He has cut all bonds with sadness, Living is glorious, life is dear. He's no dreaming idle fellow, Drinking off the froth of life, He's a husband and a father. And he's known a deal of strife, Storms have rocked his home's foundation, The price of honest bread is toil, It seems, sometimes, that all creation, Seeks his family to despoil. But listen! Is he singing Of a weary world's woe? No. Every day has its night. And 'twas God who planned it so. So hark to Mr. Meadow-Lark! He's speaking, sir, to you, From the grasses that are sparkling With the merry drops of dew. E Mary E. Fuller PAGE SEVEN TY-FOUR Class of 1904 U Q The Way of the School Teacher Ring-ting! I wish I were a School-Marm - How often in our senior year, when plans got so far ahead it seemed we would never catch up, when Hist. oil? Ed. recitations were demanded almost monotonously from our section of the class, when icosahedrons and paragraph outlines danced alternately in our poor bewildered brain, did we express the sentiment above. What a delightfully contented time we anticipated September would bring us. And did it? It did not! The first day was a work day and so has been every day since. We had to learn the names of those forty wigglers and it was doubly hard be- cause the names did not fit the pupils. There was Bill with freckled nose, rampant red hair, and a belligerent attitude toward life in general and school in particular. I 1'epeat that his name was Bill, though he went down in the records as Edwin. And then Violet-Violet whose chief de- light was not in being modestly tucked away in a corner-but who loved to mix in the fiercest encounter and usually came out the victor. Why do not people postpone naming their children until they show some sign of what they are to be? Think of the readjustments that plan would save in the poor teacher's mind. Think of the reports-reports of the numbers of pupils, reports of their ages, reports of their attendance, reports of their scholarship, reports of their vacations. They go on forever like Tennyson's Brook, The only one not yet demanded is on the number of children who have cut their second teeth-and that is expected daily. Then there are the gum-chew- ers, the paper wad marksmen, the runners on the stairs, the singers in the halls, the tearers of paper. Ah, yes, one is glad to have a rest from detailed plans and criticisms-but oh, for a critic upon whose judgment to learn when things become hopelessly muddled. However, the inner side of every cloud, you know. There is the joy of seeing pupils happy in their work, there is the queer little feeling of pleasure to see the contest over the carrying of teacher's parcel-and last, but by no means least, the notice of an increase in salary fa very small increase, to be sure, but at any rate an increasel. Indeed the way of the school teacher is rough and steep and beset with thorns. But among the thorns are the roses, and if we look, we will surely find them. , Marie Kehoe, Class of 1919. PAGE SEVENTY-FIVE .HERE BIOS Og Life, I lo've thee well, and I hafve sought to hnow thy secret, yet I stand beyfore thee dumb today as any child that has not learned to speah the sim- plest phrase. I see thee in the fresh young grass that springs so gladly from the winter's sodg but thou art like a spirit that eludes the grasp while bech'ning on. I hear thee pouring from the throat of that brown- coated bird in song, and my heart answers with its song that is too deep for words or any sound. I touch thee refuerently in this warm hand that lies within my owng I feel thee pulsing through my 'veins and welling up to ofverflow in my own con- sciousness of thee. 4- And to my silent lips there rise two words whose meaning I but dimly comprehend the while I say them o'er and o'er-God-Lofve-in time and space an anchor for my soul. J. R. M. PAGE srzvamv-sEvEN g Twenty years have hastened hy as those of us who have been privileged to live within these hallowed walls have met the oncoming throngs of youth. How precious this wel- coming mother has become to us! How we shall look with fond eyes ,hom afar as she goes on and on and on in her henignant min- istry. We are pilgrims of a day but she is immortal. We shall fade into shadowy shapes to he forgotten hut the endless proces- sion of smiling faces and joyous singers and ardent spirits will come with each new year and those dear halls will witness the ever recurring story of those, whose torches aflame from her high altars, fill the land with light. --From the Baccalaureate Address of June eighteen, nineteen nineteen John Williston Cook PAGE SEVENTY-EIGHT Gamaliel Long, long ago in the days of yore there was a teach- er whose name was Gamaliel. We know comparatively little about this man directly. But one day there 'came to him a pupil small of stature, stoop-shouldered, of defective vision, and tradition says he had a hooked nose and that his forked beard was of a ruddy hue. In after years this pupil delighted partly to account for himself by proudly boasting that he had sat at the feet of Gamalielf' So through the pupil we know that the teacher was one of might. For, with his training under Gamaliel, when once Paul was touched with the power of God, he became the mightiest force in Christ- endom excepting only the Master himself. In these our days a great teacher dwells among us. For more than a quarter of a century in one institu- tion and for nearly as long in another he has touched the lives of faculties and students. His forceful per- sonality, his keen intellect, his great soul have made their lasting impress upon the lives of many. So when the lengthening shadows, after a while, shall have turned into the splendor of the sunshine of a new day, in the lives of multitudes from the Old Normal and from the school of the Old Grey Towers, out in schoolrooms .throughout this broad land, John Willis- ton Cook will go on still living. Little in need of other monument is he who has built himself into the lives of others. Edward Carlton Page.

PAGE EIGHTY ' L J mb s lf'-'kill Q Suggestions to High School Graduates The unrest which prevails in all lines of human activity has seriously affected the teaching profession. There are, however, and will always continue to be, attractions in this profession. Even the nnancial attrac- tions are growing greater every day because boards of education every- where we are realizing that the financial returns will have to be made great- er in o1'der that the position of the teacher may keep pace with the earn- ings inother forms of activity. The service which the teacher renders, has always been of a high order because it is through the teacher very largely that the leadership of this republic must be secured. The fact that young men twenty years of age, graduating from the Normal School with no experience in teaching, are able to command 31,500 a year and more, the fact that young women graduating from the Normal school with no experience in teaching are able to command 31,200 or 951,300 a year, will act as an encouragement to all who are graduating from the high schools and may have had some intention of entering the teaching profession. There is no line of endeavor which may attract high school graduates and give to them a greater satis- faction in the performance of a high class service than will the teaching profession. When you have graduated from the Normal School you will positively and definitely be fitted to do a specific service. The actual expenditure of money necessary to graduate from a Normal School, after completing a four-year high school course, is a little more than half as much as you find necessary for two years of work in a big university. The State will certificate you without examination after you have done these two years of work in this professional and technical type of school. Why not settle the question of the next ten years of service by saying, I have decided to teach and therefore I shall enter the Normal School to become definitely and specifically prepared for rendering a ser- vice to the State.

There is the chair that supports his studious moodsg the chair that he meets Weekly in Gen. Ex., and the chair at the classroom desk, that he occupies during those rare moments when the class villain is neither study- ing the composition of spitballs nor the most efficient way to ink-shampoo his neighbor's curls. But the editor's chair-miscalled an easy chair-a fated few of us occupy in apparent luxury. Spacious is this chair-indeed! But as no way can be discovered for reducing the size you must needs increase your- self to the chair's capacity, or rattle about in discomfort. In your rattling you strike a sharp corner and find the only remedy to be a bandage of new knowledge. You lean back and jump with affright, for a moment's ease brings the news, sharp as the tack prick, that your department will have one blank, staring page if you dare longer loaf. - The bright finish of the varnish cracks and dullens as the final day brings but half of your material in. A sleepless night of endless work follows in the dull, shabby chair. The chair rests on an easy-acting swivel that whirls you dizzily when the cold Wind of criticism strikes you, and rock you gently on the quiet breezes of appreciation. While rocking so peacefully you note in alarm, the screw-holes emptied by the loss of re- signing co-workers. The arms will scarcely hold in place until the nepv board members come to your aid. But no sooner are the screws firmly in place than the upholstery cracks in many places at the illness of other workers. No mending can be done until the Flu has passed. But in the meanwhile, you have discovered that an editor's chair is not padded with eider down and velvet, but merely sawdust and artificial leather. Mildred Julian.

M arion Davis Miss Roberts, a governess Nora Tully Mr. Baxter ...................... Frank Dadds Tom Kemp, brother to Mrs. Baxter ......... Willard Smith Molluscs-order mollusca-people who spend all their energy and ingenuity in stick- ing instead of moving. It is amazing the force a mollusc will use to do nothing, when it would be so much easier to do something. There are things about molluscry to make you shout with laughter, it's sad enough too. This is the theme Mr. Davies works out, developing situations indeed to keep one shout- ing with laughter, yet never approaching buffoonery, meanwhile genially exposing a bit of more or less unconscious humbuggery that-sometimes- will happen in the best of fam- ilies. Mrs. Baxter-the mollusc-in reality very well, is enjoying poor health rather luxuri- ously, using her feebleness to tyrannize most absolutely over husband and governess, exact- ing endless waiting on 1-not that she ever really meant to ask anyone to do anything for her-no, no!j, herself engaging only in laborious idleness, artfully balking the plans of everyone else, and with such sweet regret! Brother Tom breezes in from Colorado. Now comes the real play-his irritable, clumsy, masculine efforts to reform his sisterg her subtle, alert use of passivity and weakness to thwart him. But at last jealousy of the governess puts the game in Tom's hand. Thus-Scene, the Baxter home. Present Mrs. B., helpless on her couch, and Tom. lConspicuously absent, Mr. B. and Miss RJ Mrs. B. fexcitedlyj They may be in the arbor! Tom- It's a very good placeln She- Go and look. He- I won't. She- Then I will! And, like the Little Red Hen in the First Reader, she did. The mollusc is torn from her rockg her game is over! The wind-up comes swiftly, Miss R. naively retracts an earlier refusal and accepts a permanent place in Colorado. And the Baxters-Well, here is a suggestion: Miss R. to Tom--'tYou've worked a miracle! Tom to Miss R. Qskepticallyj- Were those miracles permanent cures? We're never told! We're never told! And we-well, we wonder! Newell D. Gilbert. Let no word escape you unsuitable to the occasion. PAGE NINETV-FOUR .risfat Behind the Scenes What a patchwork of a picture those folks made!

The toys were all finished With the greatest of care, While Santa, dear soul, Lay asleep in his chair. Soon Santa awoke, And said with great glee, Oh, thank you, dear friends, All is ready, I see. 'iq Then out spoke the doll, A wee little mite, Please, Santa, let's all Have a party tonight. So Santa consented .

Barton I am very glad to introduce Miss Hortense Nielson, who will read for you, A Doll's House, by Henrik Ibsen, and the room grew quiet with expectance. And what an evening that was! It Was as if a play were being given on the stage. Fascinated we watched her as she now took the part of the gay, liht-hearted Nora, now of stern, unfeeling Krogstad, and again of another character, each one differing in every way from any other one. When Nora's children rushed in to their mother, one could al- most see them. The audience anxiously followed Nora, and when she realized she was living in a do1l's house, and being played with like a doll by Helmer, everyone was glad for her and yet-what an emptiness there was for Helmer, as he sat there and saw his wife pass out of her home-his home. The only remaining hope was that the miracle of miracles might happen and Nora come back, not as Helmer's little squirrel or lark, but as his true wife. It was all very quiet. The audi- ence saw Nora, I-Ielmer, and all the rest slowly fade away and leave Miss Nielson standing there-alone. Ruth King. To believe in yourself, fills you with power to do things.

E'- The Rivals On the evening of February fifth, under the auspices of the Men's Ath- letics Depa1'tment, the Coffer-Miller Company presented in the school au- ditorum, the three act comedy, The Rivals, by Richard Brinsley Sheri- dan. Mr. Lyon read choice bits from the play, and told of the historical significance of this comedy among dramas at the general exercise period preceding the performance. The student body and faculty thus felt as though they were meeting old friends when Mrs. Malaprop, Bob Acres, Lydia Languish and Sir Lucius O'Trigger made their bows. The action took place before a plain curtain. Changes from one char- acter to another were lightning like, and were done so admirably that the audience broke into spontaneous applause many times during the perform- ance. Those who have seen various comedies played in DeKalb of late years, did not hesitate to brand The Rivals as the best attraction the Normal School has ever sponsored. Next season the Coffer-Miller Com- pany present Shakespeare's comedy, The Taming of the Shrew, and plans are already being made to have them with us again. Opportunities-every life is full of them.

The kind, old Saint must have been exceedingly generous with his hearts for the long living room was festooned with them in every conceivable manner. There were other hearts too, so frilled and fancifully dressed in filmy, silken draperies that one would not recognize them, and still others- gallant hearts-in stranger garb, hearts of a very different kind, that lightly beat in response to the swing and sway of the gay music. But from where did the music float? Listen! Yes, from beyond that bank of ferns! Dainty cupids rivalled the hearts in decoration, and who knows but what some were busy fluttering about various other happy hearts. The orchestra was playing, and all were dancing, only pausing a few moments to sip the refreshing frappe. When the dancing stopped and the last strains of Home, Sweet Home had died away, all were glad they were Treble Clefers. M. McA. The worst that can be said of dancing is that it is a harmless folly.

Or did the Good Looks Fairy endow you with all the gifts essential to external attractiveness? Whether her gifts were good or bad there is a way to enhance the one and minimize the other, once you have learned a secret. ' Perhaps you had not even guessed there was a secret until one day there bloomed in the foyer such an extraordinary garden. Queer brown stems growing right out of long tables, and blooming atop each stem a gorgeous blossom of a hat, all wrought by the magic of the millinery girls. And such a variety of blossoms! Hats turned up and hats turned down, fioppy hats, scoopy hats, sedate hats and saucy hats, meek hats and mili- tant hats, going-to-church hats, going-to-somewhere-else hats, with no two just alike. It was evident from the diversity of styles that the Good Looks Fairy had bestowed just as many varieties of noses, for that is part of the secret: Your hat must be made to exactly suit your particular combin- ation of nose and eyes and all the rest of you. A large, lady-like black satin hat belongs only to a tall lady who deports herself with dignity, while a little round, saucy, brown hat, boasting a sma1't red ornament, must only adorn a little round, red-cheeked, brown-haired girl. Whereat it ap- pears that the wrong hat may not only do frightful damage to one's ap- pearance, but may proclaim a most serious-minded person to be a frivolous little goose. And the rest of the secret? If the hat is to be just right for you, you must know how to make it yourself. Consider the reward of such knowl- edge. A yard of silk, a bit of wire, a bit of straw, and presto! a coveted thirty dollar hat may be reproduced at any time for 33.50. Indeed, one may have two hats where she could formerly only afford to purchase one. Not vanity this, but thrift. v So this is the secret and the philosophy of hat-making: that one must be what her hat says she is, but she must be very careful of what she makes her hat say about her.

' PAGE ONE HUNDRED EIGHT U a Confreres Club Feeling the need for an organization among the men of the school, late in the winter quarter, discussion of the situation led to the forming of a club among the senior men. Since this organization was formed to fur- ther social conditions among the men, a name was chosen which embodied this consideration, and the club is called Confreres. Membership is of two types, active and associate. Men students when elected become active members, and the faculty men may be chosen as associates. Due to the fact that organization was necessary, the senior men were given privilege of being charter members, and the following men have the honor of being theifounders of what is hoped will be per- petuated by future generations of men students: Sidney Bristow, Wix Garner, Claude Middleton, Frank Dadds, John Garner, Willard Smith, Russell Smith, Glenn Hallaron and Carleton Root. All men now in school during the winter term of 1920 were declared automatically elected to membership, and that privilege was extended by public notice. These men will be initiated according to a set ritual which embodies the principles of the organization--those of a social nature. The plan for membership is such that the organization will be carried over from year to year by the senior men, the junior men being elected at the beginning of each new school year. The basis for membership is an actual participation or marked inclination to participate in student activities. The activities of the Confreres will cover a wide field. Already they are propagating plans for many beneficial changes and social events. Such organizations are now doing much for the men in some of the other normal schools, and Northern Normal wants to be equally progressive. Robert Guy Buzzard. ' Without Our Clubs Can you imagine what life here would be like if it weren't for the T. H. E., the Y. W. C. A., the girls' and the boys' basket ball teams, the Treble Clef, the Dramatic Club, the Helen Club, the Ruth Club and what not? Organizations create pep , make the school alive. They help give var- iety to General Ex. Do you remember how cleverly the T. H. E. worked out their slogan for us, how the girls basket ball team announced their game with Aurora? The faculty smile and seem to be glad when they know there is to be an organization stunt. Of course, they know they are going to see something good and all for nothing. What would Friday and Saturday nights be like without a basket ball game, a Junior or Senior party, or one like our Washington party, or other social affairs planned by the different organizations? Wouldn't we all be applying for a job as matron in some Old Ladies' Home, or a cook in some Orphan Asylum? Ruth Fluck. Start of the day with a laugh and you ueedn't worry about the rest of the day?

I decided on The Helen Club, The name sounds very cozy. So I set off to join it With outlook clear and rosy. When I arrived they asked my name, I told them, Madeline, And when they asked by middle name I said, It's Evelinef' They said, You will not do at all 'Cause Helen's not your name, That is one requirement- Our one and only aim. So just to spite 'em, guess I'll form A Madeline Club only, As I'm the only one in school It will be rather lonely. Geraldine Peterson Most of the born leaders of men are women.

As soon as all are present, one Ruth calls the meeting, Another Ruth takes the money that will be spent in eating. The other Ruths are helping, and lending a hand, And all the Ruths are laughing and chatting as fast as they can. Ruth Johnson Our Helens .

In the other corner one of the librarians is patiently reserving books for the three-thirty rush. Traffic begins down the grand promenade. The Faculty come one at a time, the Seniors in twos, and the Juniors by the bunch. A little lady comes in the east door with her hands full of papers, looks wearily from side to side and soon goes back followed by a theme writer. An excited Senior comes in from interviewing a supt. and starts a coffee-house dis- cussion at our table. The bell jingles loudly and after a pause there is a shuffle and chatter from the uttermost pa1'ts of the building.

Such an unwise suggestion could not be accepted by the Williston Hall girls and they decided that their shoulders, already almost bent double by their school duties, must shoulder one more burden. Not many of them, however, made donations of a hundred dollars or so. Therefore, some plan for the accumulation of money was necessary. So every Thursday night the girls took from their bulging pocketbooks, all the coppers in sight. In the absence of coppers, they were not ejected from the dormitory if they rose to the occasion of a nickel. The girls, Miss Branch leading, then formed in line out in the hall and as they passed into the dining room dropped their donations into a jar on the table in the middle of the room. The fund grew-not rapidly, but steadily and hopefully, the girls have volunteered to keep up the good work even after the Brunswick lfor that is what we purchasedb is paid for, in order that there may be a fresh sup- ply of Dardanella records on hand. C. Chewning. Rhythrnically Speaking The supper bell rang at five thirty and fo1' fifteen or twenty minutes the dining room was filled with a cheerful hum of voices. At six the scene had changed completely. It was as if a fairy had waved her wand over the-place. The tables were stacked and the floor was waxed. An interim of two hours and there was a sudden burst of music and gaietyg seemingly causing the very atmosphere to throb to the time of the music as happy dancers glided across the floor. So every heart, light and carefree, lost itself to intermingle with the rest, and all were one. But the fairy waved her wand all too soon: the music stopped, the scene was a dining room once more. Many times has the fairy waved her wand over the place and given us pleasure. She forgets no one for there are games and card tables for those who do not care to dance. We shall never forget these informal parties at Williston Hall, they will be happy memories with us as we go out into the world. Gretchen Ewald. ' We are happy in this hall.

' Ge1'aldine Peterson PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY E H In athletics, as in everything else, the great war compelled tremendous modifications. For the most part it brought about either a greatly limit- ed amount or complete cessation. Interest was centered in a contest of all absorbing dimensions elsewhere played. Thus it came about that when the officials pronounced the big game ended, the deeply-rooted interest in native sports blossomed forth afresh, and, if anything, with a vigor greater than ever before. And, so, when Normal opened in the fall of '19, and some thirty young men, mostly from overseas, had come daily to hang their hats in the cloakroom, it was evi- dent that something had to be done. It was too late for football 3 basket- ball was the one immediately available sport, and consequently affairs were so regulated as to begin practice about November first. Experienced men were interested: Cannon, Garner, Winterhalter, Mid- dleton, B1'istow, Albertson, King, in fact all the squad, had played in High School or in Normal. The problem was only to find the right combination of men, learn the plays and get conditioned physically. It was thought, too, that Normal ought to enter a larger field of ath- letics. Consequently games were arranged with Old Normal and Eureka College, as well as with old time rivals. In addition new opponents nearer home were added to the schedule. An unusually long season was the re- sult. The iirst game was played with Lewis Institute on November twenty-second, and the last with the American Legion on April second. Unfortunately the coal strike compelled the abandonment of the trip into foreign lands to meet Old Normal and Eureka, and, as a result, no return games with them were possible. In spite of that fact, however, the schedule as it stands is by far the best Normal has ever had. And as a step toward the realization of that desirable position which Normal must some day hold, the past season must be reckoned the longest ever taken. To look backward, however, is not the habit of youth. The institution must be youthful, she must look forward. And in the records of the year both behind and ahead, that of '19-'20 shall stand as one de- serving remark and respect. But On, Normal, On! R. E. W.

There Was present a large crowd to see the game and it was said that it was the best game that had been played on Normal floor for years. Lewis Institute had an excellent team made up partly of former Chicago and Northwestern var- sity players, but Normal put up a hard battle which left the issue in doubt until the whistle blew. Metzar of the Lewis live was the high scorer for the visitors. Garner was high scorer for Normal. Although playing with a dislocated thumb received in the first half, Captain Cannon was the fea- ture of the game in close guarding and in team work. Lewis sta1'ted the scoring while Garner followed it up with a goal and a free throw which put Normal in the lead. Lewis then rolled in three in succession and the goals made by Winterhalter and Garner left the score 8 to 7 in favor of Lewis. At the end of the first half the score stood in Lewis' favor 13 to 11. After the intermission Normal came back with a rush and soon were in the lead with the score 16 to 15. Lewis began shooting long shots, Metzar doing the shooting which ran up the score 27 to 18. With but a few minutes to play, the Cardinal and Black made a hard elfort to over- come the lead and long shots by King and Garner and foul goal by Winter- halter made the score 27 to 23 as the final whistle blew. NORMAL, 515 MT. MORRIS, 22 The Mt. Morris team came here January ninth with a good reputation and high hopes of taking home a victory. They were a capable looking bunch as they took the floor and the good sized crowd of fans, who had come out for the game, anticipated a hard battle. Winterhalter neatly placed theifirst basket and the score began to soar on the Normal side, Gar- ner and Winterhalter doing the shooting. Many of Garner's shots were of the long spectacular kind that make the game interesting. Nichols and Allen each scored a half of the two baskets made in the lirst half, the score being 36 to 4 in N ormal's favor. In the second half Coach Wager sent in the second team with the result that Mt. Morris outscored them 18 to 13. Mt. Morris displayed fairly good team work, but failed to make it count around the basket. The final score when the whistle blew was 51 to 22, with Normal on the heavy end. NORMAL, 603 JOLIET JUNIOR COLLEGE, 17 The next evening after defeating Mt. Morris, Normal met the Joliet Junior College in the Normal gym. The Cardinal and Black, having beaten PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-SIX . I I 15 is them on their own Hoor, did not anticipate a hard battle. Although the score was large, this was a much more interesting game than that of the evening before. Joliet put up a hard fight, but it was of no use, as Normal was out of their class. With the blow of the whistle Normal started scoring and was able to cage twelve baskets before the Joliet five broke into the score column. At the end of the first half the score stood 34 to 5 in Normal's favor. Winter- halter and Garner scoring all the points. During the second half the sec- ond string men were put in and they out scored Joliet 26 to 12. Garner starred by making 13 baskets and Winterhalter came nextwith 9 to his credit. For Joliet, Douglass played a star game at guard, while Captain Blatt led in the scoring with three baskets. NORMAL, 365 NAPERVILLE, 18 January sixteenth Normal met Northwestern Academy of Naperville in the local gym for what promised in the first half to be a tight game. The Cardinal and Black, fresh from overwhelming victories over Mt. Morris and Joliet the week before, were over-confident in the first half and let Naperville nose them out by the count of 16 to 14. Jonesey Winterhalter and Shadow Garner seemed both to have lost their eagle eyes of former games and put up a good exhibition of how to miss the basket. Perhaps the fact that the girls were conspicuous by their absence may have had something to do with the showing of the team. After the intermission Normal put Naperville off their feet and only allowed them one field goal. Garner led the scoring for Normal with ten field goals and two free throws, while Haidle starred for Naperville. NORMAL, 32 3 WHEATON COLLEGE, 39 On the twenty-fourth of January N ormal's string of four straight victor- ies was broken by the Wheaton quintette by a score of 32 to 39. Bristow, the center for Normal, was out of the game because of an attack of the iiu. This fact probably was the cause of N. I. S. N. S. defeat, for no human being can duplicate Joey's six feet, four inches, both on the jump off and guarding under the basket. At the end of the first half Wheaton was in the lead, the score of 19 to 10. In the second half the motto, come back rang true, for Normal managed to out score Wheaton 22 to 20. Garner scored eight baskets and four free throws. Vinning of Wheaton dropped in nine counters. The game was quite rough, a number of unnecessary fouls being made by both teams. ST. ALBAN'S, 26g NORMAL SECONDS, 21 Before the big game with Crane Tech the Normal Seconds played the heavy-weight team of St. Alban's boys school of Sycamore as a curtain raiser. A large crowd of rooters came over with the team and they were PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-SEVEN U Q determined to get even with DeKalb for the defeat they received at the hands of the local high school. With the blow of the whistle St. Alban's started the scoring and remained in the lead the first half, the score being 17 to 12. After the intermission Normal counted two baskets in succession. The scoring was neck and neck until near the end of the game when another counter for Normal made the score 21. With a few minutes to play St. Alban's slipped in two baskets and a free throw, closing the game with the score 26 to 21. NORMAL, 41, CRANE, 9 On January thirtieth Crane Tech came out from Chicago to match their skill with N. I. S. N. S. The game was slow from start to finish, Crane making only two field goals during the entire game. The Normal five had little trouble in making baskets and undoubtedly could have run up a higher score if it had been necessary. For Normal the old standbys, Winterhalter and Garner, each secured ten field goals, thus splitting the honors. For Crane, Roland scored most the points, making them on free throws. His form was some what peculiar, but nevertheless he was able to drop the ball through the net. Albertson played a good game at guard, fighting every minute. NORMAL, 213 WHEATON, 19 On February sixth Normal played the team of Wheaton College. The game was fast and offered plenty of excitement. The team-work displayed by both sides made first one side ahead, then the other. Garner starred for Normal, caging nearly all the points. Albertson played a fine game at guard, saving many a would-be basket from going in. Vinning was the star for Wheaton. In the first half Normal was able to score only two baskets, the rest of the count being made by free th1'ows. The Wheaton quintette was able to cage four goals and two free throws, making the score 9 to 10 in their favor. In the second half N. I. S. N. S., by additional fight, was able to count up 12 points to the opponents' 9, making the final score 21 to 19 in Norma1's favor. ' NORMAL, 275 NAPERVILLE, 13 The Normal team went down to Naperville on February fourteenth to play them a return game. The game was fast and a fine exhibition of team work was displayed. The Naperville five played a good game, but they were out-classed in the final run by the Normalites. The first half was undecided as to who should be the winner, but the score showed Nor- mal to be on top by a score of 16 to 11. In the second half Naperville was able to score only one fieldgoal. Normal out-played them at every point of the game. The final score when the whistle blew was 27 to 13. Winterhalter was the star of the game with eight ringers to his credit, several of which were of the long, spectacular kind from the middle of PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-EIGHT a .Sgr-3 Us .iiiiirlll ec-r Naperville's large floor. Garner started off both halves with a ringer. Moy, the Naperville forward, was their star with three baskets to his credit. NORMAL, 18g AURORA, 19 On March twelfth Aurora College journeyed to the Normal gym to meet the Normal Varsity. It was decided that the second team should take a hand in the game, because the first team had beaten them by such a large score on their own floor. Aurora were first on the fioor and they showed considerable improvement over the first game with Normal of two weeks previous. The whistle blew and the players were off. Normal scored the first basket and then a see-sawing game followed. At the end of the first half the score was 9 to 13, in favor of Aurora. After the intermission the Normal seconds came back with double, and by hard work and good play- ing they were able to tie the score, 16 to 16. After a few more minutes of play Normal scored another field goal which put them in the lead 18 to 16. It was nip and tuck. With but five more minutes to play, the first team were sent in as relief, but before they could get warmed up, Aurora scored three more points, making the final score 18 to 19. Middleton was high scorer for Normal with six baskets to his credit. William Johnson scored six for Aurora. ' AMERICAN LEGION, 283 NORMAL, 31 As a wind-up of the season of 1919-1920, Normal played the American Legion of DeKalb on Ap1'il 2. There was a disputed rivalry between the two teams, and nothing would do but that they should clash. The Legion after a week or more of hard practice were in fine trim for the game, and even Normal anticipated a hard battle. The game was called after a preliminary between two teams, made up of the local high school players. Normal made the first basket and soon were in the lead by three field goals. They remained in the lead the entire half and when the time fO1' the intermission was called the score stood 16 to 9 in N ormal's favor. In the second half the Legion came back with double fight and soon were in the lead by two points. Things looked bad for Normal. The game was nip and tuck. With about five more minutes to play the Normal five got their second wind. Winterhalter scored another counter, which was followed by a free throw and two field goals which brought the victory to the Normal team. The final score was 31 to 28. Vose was a feature of the game by long shots from almost any angle on the floor. Captain Cannon also was on the job, both in guarding and making baskets. Both Winterhalter and Garner showed their ability in getting away from trained guards.

Doris Sherman IAF! ON! HI NDRTIJ TIIIRTY E .iixfei 2 I Basket Ball Boys' Banquet Act I.-The curtain rises. About thirty festively dressed young ladies and gentlemen gathered in the hall outside the Domestic Science dining room on the eve of March eighteenth. The occasion was a banquet in honor of the Normal Basket Ball Team-the team that has done such splendid work during the past season. Before entering the dining room the boys and their partners were all introduced to the guests of honor, Dr. and Mrs. Brown and Mr. and Mrs. Wager. Act II.-The feast begins. The room was lighted by the soft glow from green candles placed on three long tables. By means of placards, each guest found his place at one of the tables and upon all being seated the dinner was served. The dinner consisted of four courses, prepared and served by the Domestic Science girls, under the supervision of Miss Neptune, and was a triumph in culinary art. At the conclusion of the dinner, Mr. Wager, who coached the boys, gave a talk, speaking of the boys and their work, and then introduced Dr. Brown. Very eagerly' the young men responded when each one was called upon to express his own sentiments. In one way their talks were all sim- ilar-they were rather conspicuous by their lack of length. Mr. Annas was among the guests, and between the talks he played and everyone joined in the singing of school and popular songs. Act III.-The curtain falls. When speech failed everyone, they adjourned to the foyer where Mr. Annas again furnished music, this time for dancing. At ten o'clock the festivities ceased and all started for home. It was one of the most success- ful parties ever held, and will undoubtedly be repeated each year. Per- haps everyone didn't do it, but it may be safely said that everyone felt like singing, as they strolled homeward, The End of a Perfect Day. Cecelia Chewning. IACF ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-ONE E' B ' Q Down in Our Alley Set 'em up, Jonesy. Yes, wouldn't that be nice. But I did the formalities yesterday, so I won't argue with you if you insist on doing them today. Well, let's flip up for it. Odd man sets 'em up for the gang. Every- body who isn't broke get in on this, if you want to bowl. I-leads. Heads Tails, Heads That's fair enough. The lady on the quarter didn't like to look at Wix. Boy, show Garner to the pit. Make him take his coat off. That's the way. - Come on, Swede! Strike 'em out. Spare! Your're up, Jonesy. The alleys are indeed a source of infinite pleasure to the fellows, espec- ially from noon on. They are over-worked and the waiting list amuses 'it- self with a few basketballs, the rings, gym apparatus and so forth. Good scores are made often and several of the best bowlers even admit they are in the 200 class. Novelties are numerous, both in shots and shooters- lJeak's two specialities are knocking down five strikes for a score of 120 or so, and smashing Tungsten globes with his head. Midds lovable little stunt is to be last man out at noon and throw all the balls down the alleys just to see them roll. Jonesy has a mysterious influence over Mac and always has nim set up the pins first. By the time it is Mads turn to bowl the bell rings for Jonesy's fifth hour class and he is sorry, but he has to go. Wix takes the bacon when it comes to luck-or maybe it is accuracy --I don't know. Long live the bowling alleys! We could not exist without them. Willard Smith. PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-TWO U lid-.sir . Baseball Prospects The success of the basketball season led to much discussion of baseball prospects, and late in the winter term it was decided that Northern Normal must be represented on the diamond as well as on the indoor court. Con- siderable difficulty was experienced in organization due to the fact that no regular coach is available. Mr. Wager who had handled basketball did not desire to continue athletic work, Mr. Oakland has too full a program because of his connection with the city school system, hence guidance of the baseball season fell upon Mr. Buzzard of the department of geography. Requisition was made upon the department of education in Springfield for the necessary equipment, and this requisition has been accepted. Probably some delay will be experienced due to the difliculty with which certain types of athletic supplies may be purchased. The 1917 uniforms are still brave in their blue stripes and crimson lettering, and the team will present a neat appearance upon the field. Due to the lateness of the decision to indulge in the national sport, arranging a schedule is being quite a problem. Most schools arranged dates for games during the winter. Consequently Northern Normal finds that few available dates exist, and these come practically at the same time during the season. At present writing it is not possible to give a complete schedule. Wheaton College will be met on the Northern Normal diamond only, as Wheaton is not able to arrange for a return game. Aurora College will be met both at Aurora and at DeKalb. Mt. Morris is to be treated in the same manner. Concordia College of Oak Park is most anxious to avenge the only defeat handed them during the last season before the war period, but since they cannot give a return game, Concordia will not be met. Negotiations are now on between Northern Normal and the following schools, and from them the remainder of the schedule will be made: St. Bede's College of Peru, St. Viator's of Bourbonnais, Chicago Technical Col- lege, Chicago Y. M. C. A. College, Joliet Junior College, Platteville Normal Wisconsin, Augustana College of Rock Island, and the Western Normal at Macomb. What degree of success shall Northern Normal expect on the diamond? Would that it might be foretold at present writing! Baseball material is more plentiful than that for basketball. The fighting spirit is now abroad. We know that men of Northern Normal are equal to or superior in basketry, among Northern Illinois college men, why not in pounding the horsehide? Several of the prospective candidates have had what may be termed semi- professional experience, and many others have played on their respective high school teams. The superintendent of grounds has promised that the playing field will be one of the best in northern Illinois, the state is furnish- ing all needed equipment, the faculty are giving all possible support, the student body is enthusiastic for the game ,-and now, Mr. Weather Man, please! Robert Guy Buzzard. PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-THREE E Q .. .l ink ,... . A f Of all women's athletics here, perhaps, basketball is the most popular and the most beneficial to the individual. More than twenty-five girls came out for basketball this year. Many of them have had supervised athletics du1'ing all of their school life. Some have had practically no athletics and have never seen a basketball game. However, each is welcomed with the same enthusiasm and upon an equal basis for making good. Unselfish cooperation and fair play is the basis of all team work, through which a girl may learn self-reliance and responsibility. If a sense of honor and loyalty is made to mean anything, a girl must stand bravely by her team in defeat or victory. It is a great thing to learn to be a good loserg to share victory and feel that some one else has done as much as one's self to win it. The spirit to be striven for is not grim determination to win at any cost, but the exhilaration and joy of playing. This spirit should not only exist among the players but should spread throughout the school body and faculty. School spirit is to a school what patriotism is to one's country. The enthusiasm and spirit which the school body and faculty show in athletics gives the team a greater incentive for playing a clean and fast game. The very play spirit and team work should tend to break up all antagonistic feelings among the girls and should cre- ate a common spirit of comradeship. The spirit in basketball this year has been of that latter type. This spirit has been largely made possible through our coach, Miss Foster. Her enthusiasm and sympathy for the play-spirit in girls has influenced many in realizing the real value of athletics. Her sense of humor and good com- radeship makes for the social spirit among the girls. In coaching she works for ideal playing a little beyond that which the players can accom- plish, but which develops each for individual ediiciency. Her helpful spirit and patience influences the spirit of the players, as doesher willingness to help every girl. The women's basketball season has been a very successful one this year, and we hope that the standardization of athletics next year will tend to create a finer school spirit and be an incentive to always strive to attain the ideal.

HUNDRI D IORTY-FOUR F Better Speech Week We'd set aside a week by name of Better Speech, It's days we spent in study, toil, one and each, We strove to speak the language our lustrous forbears spoke, We learned, our teachers taught us, Hearts were broken, not were broke! We'd set aside our slang, ourselves we were no more! We conversed with Mr. Webster our daily word to score, We said good-bye to gosh and darn and all that sort of thing. We won! And Friday found us slang broken! Better speech our king! Nora Tully.

Then Peter did glare at the critic there, And said in an awful voice, I Oh, daring woman! Oh, woman, you dare Without penance to sing and rejoice,- Rejoice, Without penance to sing and rejoice ? Said she to the saint, What is the complaint, And what penance do you demand? Oh, have I not toiled, and have I not wailed? In spite of all this, am I cann'd ? You must hurry away for a month and a day, To the school which your students conduct, And there all the day, without fail you must stay, Noting down all wrong things they instruct,- Instruct, Noting down all wrong things they instruct. But, Peter, how cruel, to make such a rule, A punishment, oh, so drear, Why can't you amend it, I can only stand it , For a day, or two days, Peter, dear. Like Wilson, I'l1 not change a comma or dot. Cried Peter, his eyes agleam. Just then in the night, the critic awoke To find it was only a dream,- A dream, To find it was only a dream. ' , Marna Peterson. Not till we are old is it that we learn to know what we melt with when young PAGE om: HUNDRED FoRTv-srx E oliihsgrstiiii, 'Q What You Are to Us n IRST of all you are folks, real live folks, human as we all are, j with our likes and dislikes, our own fashion of doing things, our own manner of expressing ourselves, our own ways of feeling and understanding. Wouldn't this be a tiresome place to live in if we were not so different? But to be folks means more than being a per- son-it means you are our people, we are especially interested in your goings and comings 5 you belong, and once having become one of us, you remain so, whether you live here or elsewhere, whether your big problem lies in the schoolroom or outside it, whether you want to or not. Beyond this you a special kind of person. Therein lies our real interest in you. What inheritance you have had, what your environment has done for you, what you are doing with your abilities, what possibilities lie be- fore you with these as a background-all these make you. And you are a constant revelation. We never know the all of you any more than we know all about any one of our own folks. But with the understanding we have, we try to add our bit to your personality. With these two things in mind, we come to the fact that you are a teacher. Your immediate problem is to help each individual child to take care of himself, to make the most of himself. Your tools must be good, in good condition, modern, your ways of doing your work should be the best, your standards, ideals, should be the highest, the result should be your guide and test of future tools and methods. And so we criticize. - Elsie Wendling. The next thing to hzrving wisdom ourselves is to profit by that of others. PAGE ONE HUNDRED FORTY-SEVEN .lilicsi The Training School How we love the Training School, With all its girls and boys Just bubbling over with laughter, And making a great deal of noise. How the children trip up the stairway, And hurry through the halls, As the last bell rings through the building, And calls, and calls, and calls. They sometimes come to school early, For just a chat with you, To tell of the parties they've had, And what they'd like to do. They're good at clever joking, And sometimes the joke's on you- For you looked from the window that morning, And heard them call, April Fool! A Grace Miller. He that gives good advice and good wisdom, builds with both hands PAGE or-ut 1-wNnREn Fomv-mc:H'r .iiliei At the Glidden At the Glidden School house window Gazing calmly o'er the way, There's a critic teacher sitting, and I know she thinks o' meg For the careless board work lesson And the dusty erasers say: Come you back you student teacher, Come you back without delay ! Come you back without delay! Linger not as if you may, Can't you feel your right ear burning Ere you meet her on the way? Q On the road without delay For your shirking now to pay- And the shivers up your spine Do not calm your fears away. When the warnings are all over And I feel at ease once more, She gets her little notebook out and Looks it through and through. With her arm upon my shoulder She starts right in anew: Your arithmetic is coming fine Have history do that too! By the blackboard with a pointer, Drilling tables with a will, Or in planning 1'eading projects, In a grade school far away, You will have a grateful feeling For old Glidden and its critics You would gladly hear them say: Come you back you student teacher, Come you back without delay! Helen Aberg. Experience :lv a jewel, for it is often purchased at an infimte rate PAGE ONE HUNDRED FORTY-NINE ii Q VVhen Our Checks Come In How are we student teachers compensated for our daily labors with the children in the practice schools? Our checks come with interesting irreg- ularity and vary widely in value. The fact is due partly to the fact that we are doing piece work instead of receiving pay for the time spent at our posts. Our checks are not recognized by the bank or merchants. Even we may not always receive the full benefit from our checks, for they must be endorsed with a smile and cashed with appreciation. Our first check comes in the form of a pleasant word of commendation from our critic teacher for the model teaching of a poem. But alas! the next day a bill to exceed our account appears-not one child remembers so much as a line of the poem. And after attempting to bring out the beauty of this verse one child persists in speaking of the fieasy snow as though it were the infested coat of a stray dog. But practice teaching is a wellpaying employment the next day, for we are overwhelmed with wealth. Mary Helen's mother is visiting and being the first visitor of the term has worked a charm with the children. They become little models of industry and recite like wee artists. Small bills for damages are constantly coming in--damages against the children's intellect and morals, for which we pay dearly with regret and not infrequently embarassment. After telling the story of Cinderella with its high ideals of love and kindness portrayed in the beautiful cinder maid, why should the children, when asked what made Cinderella's face so beautiful say, powder? In the midst of one of those almost-ideal reading lessons Kenneth raises his hand-Oh! he is thinking for himself Indeed he is, and in a flash is telling us about the funny, wabbly calves he saw at the stock show. And though we finally turn the discussion to the Sun-bonnet Babies and their kitten, half of the class are claiming a chance to talk calves while the other half have dropped their books or rolled out of their seats. At this point the critic teacher enters and the bill of shame is marked C. O. D. Sometimes our debts, hard though we try to economize, exceed our income. Do not criticize our extravagance, for it may be that our sadly bent finances are, at the eleventh hour, appreciably mended with the over- worked sympathy of our critic and a final teaching card of the term. Or this may be sonnearly true to fact that our finances snap and we find our- selves bankrupt, with our creditors claiming the profits from another term of practice teaching! Mildred Julian. Every experience in life is a teacher. PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY .tllifsi Senior Trials We hasten each morning to teaching, At one, at classes we're due. From then till three-thirty we're busy With Algebra and History to do. Then when the day seems over, To Library class till four, We Seniors sigh and Wonder Can they pile on any more? At last our work is over, But very sad to say, We feel a sudden longing At dear N. I. to stay. Helen Vogel. Our Wants Are Few Little I ask, my Wants are few, Give me a room all cosy and bright, For neighbors a pleasant chum or two, And no studies on any week-end night, A box of candy now and then, A little more than I wish to spend. A girl should dress in cheap attire, Fine heavy middies of wool, in blues,- I own I might perhaps desire Some sweaters in assorted hues, Some pretty gowns of georgette crepe With hats to match and a handsome cape. For studies-little psychology, At math and physics, I'd rather not grind, Field trips, no lab in biology, Reading or history I should not mind. On music, phonics I'll not discourse, Nor on pamphlets for a library course. So let me fare at this Normal school, Attending the Armory or Peck's, And study some and pupils rule, Until it's I the supe elects. And when I'm in that nice position I'll still come back --a la tradition. , Margaret Johnson PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-ONE .tilflat When She Needs a Friend Oh! the merry time the Proctor has, there's nothing can compare, There's no time when you need friends more than when you're in the Proctor's chair. There's your usual visits to the rooms, where study's not at stake, They say that they are hungry and of luncheon must partake. Then they all begin to whisper and you ask them to refrain From doing things annoying, and tell them to act sane. When the girls give you their promises, that no further noise they'll make, You 1'et1'ace your steps back to your room, where your studies all await. You try once more to settle down, to the mysteries of your work, When suddenly you'll hear the sound of laughter and of mirth. You gently knock upon the door, from where the fun's at stake, And some one tries to ease your mind, by offering you some cake! Oh, the merry role of Proctor, it's either this or that to mend, For one cannot count the times at night when a Proctor really needs a friend. Elizabeth N. Hosty. The Proctor The Proctor! Oh the Proctor! She always spoils our fun, For if we make a bit of noise She's sure to make us run. Now every time we have a spread A knock comes at the door, There's too much noise-the rules you know---- I won't warn you any more. The Proctor! Oh, the Proctor! Why need she be so stern? Now we could be quite deaf and blind, Just wait 'till it comes our turn. The Proctor says she'll tell Miss Branch If we break too oft a rule, Miss Branch will tell our Dr. Brown And he'l1 tell us to leave the school. Marina Yetter.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-TWO B The Box From Home The other day I got a card from a girl who lives in Chi, She wrote: 'Tm sending you a box, with lots of love, good-bye. I madly ran out of my room and went to tell the news, I said, I'm going to have a spread to take away the blues. The box arrived, so did the girls. We all were so excited, And they all cried with one accord: We're glad we were invited I opened up the box and right on top there was a note, And while the girls stood all around I read them what she wrote: I know you're fond of reading as I often heard you say, So I'm sending you some literature which was in my way. Of course it's not all up-to-date, but you won't mind a bit, I know if I had sent you eats you would have had a fit. I took the contents from the box, the girls stood all around, And laughed and giggled in great glee for this is what I found: A Woman's Home Campanion from 1894, And several daily papers from before the World's Great War, Four Literary Digests from last August and September, An almanac which was so old, the date I can't remember. Now let me tell you, next time that box arrives from home, I'm going to-lock my door and open up the thing alone.

Now get impatient and see if I care. Ha! Ha! You'll get there after a few more jerks. Tug! Tug! Goodness, some one seems to be in a great .hurry. I wish she wou1dn't press the button so hard. My, I am dirty! My floor has not been scrubbed since yesterday morning and it is covered with scraps of paper those careless girls dropped. How kind of you, maid, to scrub my iioor. You are even washing the finger prints off of my glass door! I hope the girls will notice when they ride this noon. Stay on, I will take your brooms down to the basement for you. That horrid laundry man has tracked my floor all up with his muddy boots! It is too bad that he can't even walk to second fioor. The girls are here from fourth hour already and Mr. Hale is feed- ing me my grease. They must take the stairs, but they need not begrudge me my one meal a week. Then they'l1 make me rush again until my ropes whirl. Here comes Miss Dewey! Just watch her balancing her tray so care- fully. Here is where I have some fun. Up, up, up, we go! J er-r-k! I'm sorry, Miss Dewey, that the loganberry juice spilled on that napkin, but you know there are always more loganberries in the kitchen. To show you that I am a good sport I'1l take you down. It might be a good plan to take the stairs the next time. I guess I'll take a rest till supper time. Now, what do that silly Junior and Senior want with me? We go up to the third floor-and down to the basement-and up again! I wonder if they aren't taking a joy ride! My, how they giggle! Oh, ho! Here come Miss Branch. I guess they won't take a joy ride again so soon. Who's down in the basement at this time of the night? I smell candy. Who is pulling my door open-so--quietly? Oh, two rulebreakers with two plates of hot candy. Up we go! Up we go! I will -- not -- go -- any - far-ther! What a surprise-and you dare not ring my bell to bring help. Some one seems to be p-u-l-1-i-n-g me from above. Is it Miss Branch? No, only two rescuers waiting for the candy. There! They forgot. to close my door.

How they jerk, and jarr, and jangle In the crispy air of morn, While the students strive and strangle With a tangle all forlorn- Marching down, down, down, With a giggle or a frown, To the brazen babbulation that so bountifully tells Of the codfish or the muffins, Corn like bullets, oatmeal porridge, Sunday Pancakes-if the crowd is not too great. Hear the bright five-minute bells! Blessed bells! What a World of worriment their ringing oft impells!

PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-FIVE E Keeping the Law Our coal supply was very low, The days were very cold, We put on clothes and shut off lights, And did as we were told. At half-past nine o'clock one morn, I ran in to a. store, Ordered what I wanted, And started for the door. Dear Madam, I am sorry, You must not haste away, I can not sell you anything, 'Till ten o'clock today. The next day at eleven, I hurried to a shopg The door was locked, The man inside, just pointed to, the clock. For a chance to spend some money, I must stand around an hourg The man was very penitent, And I was very sour. You couldn't count upon the trains, To take you back or forth, For the one that went south yesterday, Today was running north. At night the street lights all were out, From end to end of town, We had to step most carefully, To keep from falling down. We knew as good Americans, We must neither scold nor shirk, 'Till the troubles were adjusted, And the miners back at work. Keep thc law, for it is your law.

The bed posts wagged their heads at me, Their faces darker grew. The pillows shivered at my feet, The covers shivered too. The dresser danced about the room, My shoes began to grow. Then in walked all my teachers, And stood there in a row. The ceiling came to meet the floor, The windows shone with glee. While everything made a face And pointed straight at me. The doctor came and shook his head And gazed in a solemn way, You have the flu, my son, he said, And now in bed you stay. Walter Albertson.

I got into the Assembly hall early so that I could let all my neigh- bors climb over me to their places and stand on my toes as they took their breath to go on. Then I watched the Faculty file in and ascend to their seats of honor. Mr. Page crossed his legs so deliberately I knew he must have a new relic. Mr. Vaughn gave three of his short coughs-that meant that he was about to speak. Dr. Brown looked at Miss J andell-and then she read three and half yards of library rules and a great list of fines. I wonder why she read my name first? Mr. Parson and Mr. Vaughn told us how to vote-no, they were debating-no, they weren't, for Miss Whitman said that it was not a debate., Well, after all we didn't know how to vote on the treaty but we did know that we'd vote unanimously for Mr. Vaughn as joke-master.

And it came to pass in the one thous- and nineteen hundred and nineteenth year, in the seventh month of the year, on the twenty-ninth day of the month that the Big Man, surnamed Brown, did enter and take up his reign as tetrach of all the Northern Normal Land. 2. And many were as strangers in a strange land, and did wander about in a state of bewilderment and were of envy of those that did conduct themselves with the familiar feeling of knowing how. 3. Then, according to the writ of com- mand placed before use did we set our- selves diligently to the making of our plans for daily labor, which are kept on record did wonder and seek to know the how and why of the Big Man. And we were soon perplexed to know whether he had said, Depart Ye. 5. Withal, was there much rejoicing by the damsels-yea, the Wise Ones likewise, for to the Land had returned those that had gone to the camps and across the seas and no more was the Land to be without deep-voiced and the strong ones-the gal- lant Man, 6. And those that were strangers in a strange land, did sicken with longing for home and for days they did go about with long faces, and some did say, cast out thy sad hearts and cease thy wailing. in the place of safe keeping.

Yea, we repeat, very often. Io. And on this day, those that know it all were gathered together and did choose a chief or leader from among their ranks and the lot fell to the Great Smith. II. And it came to pass that those that had wandered as strangers did come to- gether and elect a King over them that he might embolden them in the presence of those that Know It All. 12. Then did stand before us a youth of the name Castle, surnamed Brown, even the son of the Big Mang and he did make sweet musick with a stringed instrument. And all who listened did say with one ac- cord, Come Again! 13. And were chosen scribes and shekel gatherers from among both tribes of the Land, to cause to be set down in permanent record the happenings of the months in order, in the Northern Illinois. 14. Then became noised abroad the crime of the youth Hallaron, that he did beguile one of the Wise Ones to the Mis- tress of Art to the jitney and forsook his duties to the Land, so he was brought be- fore the high tribunal, tried, and convicted even so! 15. And again did they that Know It All come together and choose certain from among them to set down the Chronicles of the year in the book of the Land, the Nor- ther, that it might be continued as it was since the beginning. 16.

Then did the Big Man appear before the mulitude and he spoke unto them in this wise, For one week shall ye put away all naughtiness in words, all slang and foolish utterances. Then was there calamity in the Land. Even the rulers were stricken with dumbness and durst not PAGE ONE HUNDRED SIXTY-TWO is Q open their lips, lest they practice not what they preach. 3. And Page, the Historian, did stand before one of his group and ask concerning one damsel called Ruth, surnamed Fluck, And think ye, would ye be much missed if ye wert taken from this land by one from the tribe of Mexicans? 4. And many came to cast themselves before the Chief of Players to enter into the company of those who' play. 5. Then the Pedagogues of the tribe of Seniors were of long faces and sorrow- ing hearts, for on this day was Institute held. 6. And the youth Hallaron did go about with shining countenance for had he not received a date from the hands of one called Doris? T 7. And on this day in remembrance, we did gather in the Great Room, and for one minute did stand with faces toward the land where war had ceased, in rever- ence to Our Boys who remained there. And one did sound Taps. So it was over all the land. 8. And the jolly ones, the dancers of the land, were of heavy eye and weary feet, for this is the day after and they did dance in the ball-room of the town and make merry for many hours. 9. And signs did appear along the way saying, Your Heart and Your Dollar for the Red Cross today. Io. And lo! The spirit of Pep came into the midst of the multitude that had gathered in the place of meeting and ex- ceeding loud was the noise, seeming to burst their throats. 11. In these days did some from the tribe Who Know All gather in the place of parchments and seek knowledge and un- derstanding in the Book of Words for the Keeper of the Parchments. 12. And we did gather and tribute pay to a former master in our land, and for a perpetual memory a tablet of bronze did they erect in the foyer. 13. Then did the shekel gatherer, Smith of the Big Words, stand forth and speak thus: All those who have not got- ancl then did he strangely lack utterance. 14.

And Smith, the Great, stood before the Wise Ones and spake unto them, be- seeching them, entreating them, to pass on the light of their countenances. 3. And our Brave Battling Warriors did journey to the Land of Lewis and were sorely beaten. 4.

Then one did dance before us and give us diverse exercises concerning our breathing and delight us with account of the doings of those who lived in the Doll's House. 11. And those who had completed their learning in this Land were given the roll of Sheep Skin and they passed in review before us with great honor. 12. And again did our Brave Warriors go forth in battle and they did return with triumph, wonderful to relate. 13. -And the land was deserted once more for days numbering seventeen, yea delightful days even so. 14. And judgments were passed on the Xoms and sent out through the country beyond the Land, to all members of any of the tribes. 15. And we do wish unto you this day, all manner of good things and a Right Merrie Christmas. W mlm And it Was in january 1. And greetings were in abundance for the year that was very new, when all did re- turn from lands distant to continue their work here. 2. And he of the Physics Laboratory, X af 4k f,qQ' I .. -lg!! T the concocter of foul odors, did slip and welter about in a bank of snow. 3. And the keepers of the lunch count- er, the mixers of toothsome dishes, did serve us at the hour of noon with many good things. 4. And men did work with horses and tcols of scraping to clear the stretch of PAGE ONE HUNDRED SIXTY-FOUR er. B frozen water so the young of the Land might skate upon the icy smoothness. 5. Andltwice it happened, one eventide after another that our Brave Battling War- riors did prove their prowess and strength and the multitude rejoiceth in the victories. 6. On this day the Big Man did go about and investigate all places of the realm where maids did learn the art of teaching. And he spake unto them words of praise and cheer that heartened them greatly. 7. And our spirits againi did become glad for our warriors did gain another vic- tory from those from Naperville. 8. And the tribes of the Juniors and Seniors did gather and prepare for a good time together in the place of dancing. 9. And therewas a time that the noble King Arthur lay in pieces, while the Mis- tress of Art did seek to make more beau- tiful this place of habitations. Io. And the Land was without coal and we did shiver and shake and turn up our ew .4 rrp! . wa, ' f'i ' s 2-ii ' ll coat collars, but still did we keep at our tasks, envious of those who were more fortunate than we. rr. And the warrior maidens of our Land did contest hold with other of their kind from the place called Rockford and a victory did they take and make fame thereby. 12. And the Mistress of the Voice gathered those who did long for the sweet songs of the opera and all did go to the Windy City to see and hear the Great Per- formers. 13. At this time was the Land in sor- row for the Brave Battling Warriors did fight well but Wheaton warriors were strong and did wrest from them a victory. 14. And the Wise Ones of this Land did discourse hold concerning the League of Nations, before the Simple Ones that had gathered in the Great Room. And the Simple Ones did find themeslves of even less understanding than they wot. 15. Then many in this Land and other ws... -fr- 'fs' lands were smitten with the plague pre- vailing over the country called the Flu, and all were sore afraid. 16. And the Historian, the collector of attic treasures, put on display strange ap- parel for the feet in warning to all fair damsels. 17. Look ye, and behold! A damsel ,, . ei :A-9 I appears with new and bciiowered straw headgear. PAGE ONE HUNDRED SIXTY-FIVE U .Eli-mil a And it Came to Pass in February 1. That if the first day be bright and full of sunshine, the dumb creatures will a shadow cast, and weeks numbering six will be of the cold winter weather. 2. Then our Brave Battling Warriors did go forth once more and make war against the Wheaton stronghold and broke down their defense. 3. But the land is sorely in need of criers and trumpetersg those who can sound forth Pep in the form of Yells. 4. The young children, youths and maidens and Wise Ones of the Land did V 5 I the ' , A .24 uvirzfiyfard his i slr' ' rnurq E4 . ,fri in if . .if-lff8'l:f.1-. ea . IA I 2 .1 9 shoot Pq-V ,. 2 -.

And this is the time of great excite- ment among the young children for tokens of papers, laces, hearts and bright colors are given one to another. 6. And the Pedagogue of the elements of the land, air and water, did stand be- fore and gaze long upon dainty gowns in a shop window. Wherefore? 7. And the young children do play with round bits of hardened clay, a game called mibs. 8. And of bodices and tiounces and pantlettes were the gowns made and hair was powdered white for the gay time in honor of the birth anniversary of the Father of His Country. And it was voiced with one voice, that we had a good time. . . 9. Then the group of players of our Land, those who play upon instruments of string and instruments of wind did tickle our ears with pleasant sounds and cause us to marvel. 10. And those that were soon to depart from the Land made themselves busy with landing their ten thousand dollar jobs. 11. And it came to pass that two did wage a battle with bayonets in the place of many things, known as the Hall of Dis- play, even in the presence of the noble Arthur, and the Great Smith was made humble by one Claudius, surnamed Middle- ton. 12. And some did go about with mis- chief in their eye and a veil in hand which they did cause to enfold Diana and the Mistress of Art did exclaim with horror when she beheld the sight and right quick- ly she did cry for help to unveil the lady. And it Was in March 1. Then Players numbering four from the Company of Players belonging to this Land, did please us greatly and cause much wonder and merriment with the play of The Mollusc. 2. And in the place of meeting did heralds appear and cry forth the coming of the Teller of Tales of the Alabaster Princess. And on that evening did we cease from our labors and gladly come. 3. And those who had gone to the Windy City and sought to know the plight of the poor and downtrodden did speak unto us concerning things they had seen. 4. And lo! The sky was cast o'er with clouds and it did rain cats and dogs. PAGE ONE HUNDRED SIXTY-SIX -E ti . Q 5. And the river and the lake of the Land were filled to overflowing so that none might know them. And much water stood about for days. 6. Until the sun did appear and dried the earth. Then buds did spring forth and the sun shone and all looked for the first robin. 7. And our warriors did become big headed and think to show off and behold! They were made humble at the hands of Aurora. 8. Then o'er the Land once more is there loud wailing and the foolish ones did weep because they had studied not. 9. And through a second day did the loud wailing continue. Io. And shurr are we for wearing a bit of green on St. .Pat's Day. 11. And Seniors did wisely remark that Juniors need not wear green for that was their natural color. 12. And to our Land came one who 0:0 could speak with wisdom concerning the good work of those in Y. W. C.A. 13. And it was noised abroad over the Land that he of the saying absolutely not had grown weary of the lonesome life and was enthralled with a fair one down state. Exactly so! 14. Then the roasters of meats, the mixers of spices did prepare for the Heroes of the Land, a sumptuous feast of choice victuals and after partaking of them there was much toasting and merrie-making. 15. And then for seven days the land was without the chattering maidens and boastful lads for spring, and the week of freedom from labor was at hand. 16. And on the last day of the month people from the town and 'from afar did gather together with the Wise Ones and Simple Ones of the Land meetings did hold concerning things in the life of a commun- ity and many did speak much wisdom unto them, as- Go not dressed like a peeled banana. 0:0 Ear Muifs Sing a song of ear muffs, ' Combed o'er every pretty earg What's the use of those things?

Hildur Flodin PAGE ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-THREE a s According to the Month of April 1. And on this day, being the first day of the month and the month of April, many did tell foolish things concerning our hair, or what not, until they could beguile the guileless and say April Fool. 2. And the lads of the Confreres did summon us to do rythms with the feet in the foyer after the labor of the day was over. And a jolly good time we did have, with gay musick. 3. On this eventide for the last time our Brave Battling Warriors did gain a hard victory with good sportsmanship and clean playing, from those who played for the Legion. 4. Milady did think to dress so finely on this day, Easter Day, but the ruler of weather did think not so, and spring flow- ers did remain in band boxes. 5. And in the period of assembly one who knew the way of foreign folk did pleas- antly relate the tale of Kalavala and she did clothe herself in gay garment of Fin- land. 6. And it came to pass that Smith of the Big Words, stood before the gathered multitude and spake unto themg for it was in the minds of some to cause a circus to be held in the Land which meaneth the planning of stunts and the capture of wild animals. ' 7. And scribes of the chronicle of the year, the Book called the Norther, did sigh deeply and their countenances did show great relief, for was not the day of reckoning the day set aside by the printer at hand? 8. And again players did enter our Land, even from the Land of Norway, and for one eventide after another they did appear before us and all were as struck dumb with the words and deeds of Hedda Gabler and did marvel and wonder at The Master Builder. 9. And the Big Man did cause to be put upon the Place of Announcements, small cards of one size and neatness, whereon all must write their commands and make known their wants. 10. And it was rumored abroad over the Land that at the place for the wherewithal to stay the pangs of hunger, some of the Wise Ones did show themselves eager, even as the simple folk, to learn the mysteries of their horoscope. II. Then before us stood one of the Y. W. C. A., a maid of our own Land and with much wisdom and a sweet way, she did relate the woes of China and the ways of the students of that Land. 12. And among the trible of Seniors there was much discussion concerning the apparel to be worn on the Great Day of the receiving of the Sheepskin, as to whe- ther it should be caps and gowns or the simple frock of the sweet graduate. 13. And the maids did converse hold concerning the color of the kerchief and the apparel of the feet. 14. And again, another lass stood before us and did relate with wisdom and thought- ful study the way of the women of Japan. 15. Rejoice in Baseball! Oh! Ye that are full of pep! The warriors of the Bat and Ball do labor on the field and soon we may join in cheers and shouts of triumph over victories that they win. And on this day there was much doing in the place of weekly meeting and we did sit and listen for one hour. PAGE ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-FOUR E . er As it Happened in May and June 1. And now, dear reader, as prophets foretold in days of old even so must the humble chronicler now foretell the passing of events that have not yet happened. 2. And excitement was over the whole Land and before the great event, riders with their steeds did come and wild ani- mals, even the Blunkns, and the serpent Boa Constrictor and the Band did loudly peal forth gay musick and all did wend their way down the broad streets of the villageg and the villagers did gather and gaze on the flashing colors and hearken to the lively musick. 3. In the eventide, a multitude gathered and did witness the stunts, and all did en- joy the Jocyln dance and the Highland Fling and young and old did look on the Pearly Gates with great interest and cur- iosity. 4. And there had been much labor on the part of the players of the Land, for were they not to entertain the Land one eventide with joint Owners in Spain, Overtones and Indian Summer ? 5. And we were addressed by a Junior maid, who told us concerning Korean and the folk who dwell therein and we mar- veled. How doth she know?'i 6. And the songsters of the Treble Clef did sing songs and melodies of diverse lands and some players did play and right. gladly, for a second eventide were they to pass in dancing and merrie-making. 7. Now it came to pass that the time of May was celebrated by the maidens of the Hall, who did hold high Festival and did dance and sing about the Maypole. And in the eventide youths came also, and all did partake of the feasting and dancing that was there. 8. Then at the command of their King the Juniors did hold council at different appointed times and places, and did make great preparations for their prom. 9. And during this month of the year students of society seeking wisdom, did journey with the man who hath a beam in his eye, to the Windy City to learn of the folk there. Io. And plans and preparations were made by the Seniors for their prom and some did make flowers and streamers of paper and some did select the musick, but all did look forward with delight to the great time. 11. As others who departed from the Land had done, so did this class also. That memory of them might remain, they did gather and devise plans concerning their high festivities for Class Day. iz. And the play of the Seniors was chosen with much consideration and the players of the play were chosen also, and they did set themselves right diligently to the task of committing their lines. 15. Here have ye read of the doings of the Land, of the labors and plays and the way of the people and herein should be writ more but the time for the printer has come: and if it be that much has been left out, that should have been recorded, will ye supply it according to your own satisfactions? Thus sayeth the Chronicler. May 20. EXTRA. The baseball season is in full swing. Since the opening' game against Mt. Morris on Glidden Field, the N. I. S. N. S. team has defeated Wheaton College at DeKalb, 10-3, and Mt. Morris at Mt. Morris, 10-5. Root is pitching a very steady game and the team is batting and fielding excellently. Looks like a great season. PAGE ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-FIVE E olfilwleiiitil E DeKalb Normal Joins Conference With Minor Colleges of Illinois On April nineteenth a meeting was held at Peoria, Illinois, in which the No1'thern Illinois State Normal joined the Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Mr. R. G. Buzzard represented N. I. S. N. S. at the meeting. The following eighteen institutions will make up the association. They are: Lombard, Illinois State Normal, St. Viator's, Augustana, Milikin, Illinois Wesleyan, Illinois College, Carthage, Charleston Normal, Eureka, Northwestern College, Monmouth, Knox, Hedding, Lincoln, Macomb Nor- mal and Dekalb Normal.

Wann, athletic director of James Milikin University, Decatur, Secretary, H. H. Russel, athletic director Illinois State Normal University, Normal 3 Treasurer, Prof. Schilling, Monmouth at Monmouth. It was de- cided that as soon as the eighteen schools approved of the constitution and by-laws that the new organization would go into effect. An important feature of this conference is that the championship of each season's events will be based upon a percentage basis. ' PAGE ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-SIX n . Q Normal, 195 Mt. Morris, 10 On May first the Normal nine played their first base ball game of the season with Mt. Morris College. The Mt. Morris representatives were de- termined to get even for the two defeats they received during the basketball season. During the first inning neither side scored, although Normal had several men on bases. In the second inning Normal began hitting the ball right and left and continued doing so the rest of the game. Mt. Morris scored through errors made by the Normal players, but nevertheless it was a good practice game. The score was: Normal- AB R PO A E Garner, lst.

XT T orthern 4 Illinois State Normal School The call for teachers is very great. Salaries for Normal School graduates are steadily increasing. No graduate of this school need start at less than 951,000 per year. In the special departments, salaries even run much higher. The demand is far in excess of the supply. There is a place in this school for those who desire to pursue courses in regular Normal work, Household Economics, Music, Art, and Manual Training. Last year the Manual Training graduates were placed at from 31,400 to 1,800 per year. Considerably more than one hundred calls came for Manual Training teachers which the school was unable to supply. The Manual Training Department offers courses which give its graduates junior standing in university and at the same time prepare them for good positions as teachers of Manual Training.

HALIKIAS Proprietors Always Open 323 East Lincoln Highway DeKalb, Illinois I Only the juniors Bang! Crash! Clatter! Ghumpety thump! As I studiously sat working at my table, vainly trying to add X+1 and Y-O suddenly there came to me the sound as of thousands of feet running down stairs, accompanied by the shouting of as many voices. The noise grew louder and louder, And the mumbling grew to a rumbling, And down the stairs the girls came tumbling. As the noise continued, I became rather excited and hundreds of sug- gestionscame to my mind as to what might have happened. Had one of the radiators sprung a leak and was threatening to flood the whole building ? Maybe Miss Thompson had eloped. Was the Normal building on fire? Had the United States entered the League of Nations? Perhaps the school was going to be closed on account of the shortage of coal. As I reached this final conclusion, I hastily jumped up and ran to the door, determining to find out for sure what was causing all of the excite- ment and confusion. Upon opening the door, in my haste, I nearly collided with a Senior who was coming to pay me a social call. As she saw my look of inquiry and consternation, she immediately quieted all of my fears by the rather sarcastic remark: Don't get excited. It's only -the Juniors. Annette Carlson.

When Books Are Forgotten The last class is over, 'tis Friday night, I take my books and my heart is light, I bring them all home and throw them down, My old text books, green, red and brown. No science notebooks to write in all night, No troublesome French to translate just right. There may be a game of basket ball, And then a dance at Williston Hall, Or we'll to the movies to see the show, And after to Lincoln Inn blithely go. Then back to the Hall, but not to bed. Oh no! Ten-thirty's the time for a spread. Laughter and music ring through the I-Iall. School books, you are forgotten by all. Alta Anfinsen. In Room 2102 I went down the hall at eight o'clock To quiet the screeches of a noisy flock, I knocked on the door--not a sound from within, So I opened it gently and looked there- in. An unheard of creature was under the bed, For I saw three feet but nary a head, A bathrobe cord and a red felt slipper Betrayed a girl that was quite a skipper. An overturned pie and a. broken platter Revealed to me the cause of the clatter, So I shut the door and slipped away Hoping for silence 'till the break of day.

Soon the hungry line is winding past the pans of meat and stew, Where the salads are all taken, and desserts are left but few.

And there they are-the dew sparkling on them as if fairies too had appreciated their beauty and had touched each vel- vet petal with their wands. Now and then the solitude is broken by a burst of song as a blue bird or bright tanager selects these lovely branches as a suit- able place from which to serenade the golden ball in the east. And then to- ward evening as the merry picnickers come to enjoy an hour or more, we Gnd our fragrant blossoms just as love- ly as they were in the morning.

Corner Lincoln Highway and Fourth St. TI-IE STAR Reveries of a Bachelor CApologies to R. G. BJ Well, here it is Friday night. I might have gone into the frat meeting tonight, but then I didn't. I could go to the movies or to that dance they are giving at the Elks, but I guess I will just sit in this comfortable old chair and think how good I feel about the world in general. You know it's nice to be a bachelor even if you have to be a very respect- able bachelor. This life certainly has its compensations. just think of the advantages we bachelors have over the man of a family who always has some one to remind him that the furnace needs coal, or how nice it would be if he would help with the dishes just this one evening, dear. But then, there are some drawbacks to a bachelor's life. How nice it would have been to have taken the afternoon train to Champaign. Her sorority cer- tainly maintains a fine parlor. Natural- ly! It's her sorority. Pshaw! These are strange thoughts for a set and eminently respectable bachelor. It is very difficult to be a model of wit, wisdom and propriety for such a school as this. Too many girls -that's the trouble. Exactly! But things might be worse, for the few young men that are here keep me busy reminding them that I shall have to col- lect rent if they do not refrain from using my end of the hall so extensively. I suppose I used to do the same sort of things when I was young and fool- ish. Hear the rain! How fortunate that I am not in the army and on guard. I much prefer an alarm clock with breakfast at seven-thirty to reveille at six and a hurried turn at mess. But then, one has so much responsibility here, has to be so correct in manner. In teaching I always have my class get the meaning. Exactly! It is so much better to have one's subject absolutely right. Well, I must lay out next week's lessons and look them over to get my concepts nicely adjusted on all points so I guess I'll have to quit dreaming. Kenneth Faxon.

QWonder who he is.J Instead of making one single movement, he makes many. CWonder where he lives.D If the ball is moved to and fro some of the random movements in the arms will result in the child's hand coming in contact with the ball. fWonder how much it cost.J He will grasp it. He finds, when his hand moves, that the ball moves also and vice versa. fAnd the sparkle moves too.J He is most conscious wh.en he grasps it and sees it change.

What A Teacher Should Be First of all let me say, a teacher, above all things should be one who when asked by a pupil to be excused to catch the 2:26 train and other popu- lar methods of escape will answer, Cer- tainly, dearf' But alas, I was shocked and even mortified to find that things had gotten to such a terrible state that the teacher actually said, Noi to such a request. Think of it--and in this ad- vanced age, too! The sccond point is that a teacher should give a student at least A on all iiork. Yet I have found papers graded as low as C. Such conditions are de- plorable indeed, and should be looked into. Another point of national inter- est and world-wide comment, is the matter of conversation between the teacher and the pupil.

Such tid-bits would tend to encourage the student somewhat, but, I fear that we are still living in the dark ages, for repeatedly have I heard a teacher say, Ulf you'll kindly keep your thoughts in the class Mr. Blank, you might know something sometime! Lastly, let me say, teachers, you are old fashioned when you ask a student to spend an hour and a half on one les- son. Psychologists will tell you that the student's mind is unable to concen- trate longer than ten minutes on one study. All highly modern and efficient teachers are adopting the new Beenee plan, which allows for the ten minute study hour, so why not be modern and give the hard worked pupil a chance to get some extra dates in during the week?

Johnson gives an eminent choice, So we're taking her pleasant but squeaky voice. Sidney Bristow, the Abe of our school, Leaves his stature and height, the hall to rule. WHO'S YOUR BUTCHER ? LO M.

In one of his more frivolous mo- ments Mr. Smith wrote this small vol- ume of two thousand pages and dedi- cated it to the world along with his other works of art. Mr. Smith's vo- cabulary, always most elastic, has ex- ceeded all his past efforts so that we are grateful for an entertaining little novel on this subject. Novels Thru the Looking Glass. A brief synopsis will give the inside facts of this story. A group of girls are sitting about and Mona Bell in her favorite position before the mirror is patting her hair in place. Mona is talk- ing disconnectedly when suddenly she gives a wild cry and calls, 'Girls-I can see him through the looking glass and he is beckoning to me. Mona then falls in a faint. Hen is called to her side and no longer needs to beckon her on. Mona and the professor are mar- ried and live happily ever afterward in their little bungalow in Malta.
