The little town of New Paltz lay sweltering in the sun, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new juniors. About noon a few timid and retiring maidens did straggle in, weighed down with cough medicine, coats, umbrellas and good advice which fond mothers had loaded upon their little daughters before they set out into the wicked world Cvia New Paltzj. V By nightfall the majority had been duly inspected and had heard the, Merle, mene of the sidewalk connoisseurs. Only the commuters from Kingston, Pough- keepsie and Highland were left to make their appearance the next morning. And when that eventful day did arrive at last, how great was the embarrass- ment of this now calm and collected company-the class of 1914. Blushing and fall- ing over each other, they at length found their way into class rooms Qusually the wrong onesb and school began. During the first few weeks the class as a whole gained rather a bad reputation. They were told by everyone that they were talented, but lazyg good natured, but careless. At all this they laughed and plugged on Qin the wee small hoursb for it was ever their motto while the sun and the moon shone high to eat, drink and be merry, knowing that to-morrow notebooks would be due. Into this atmosphere of laughter and gaiety, and work twhen no other alter- :se ' native presented itselfj was ushered in with pomp and glory, thc junior dance. And who is there so bold that will deny that it was the finest ever held since the reign of mad Nero? Ere thc last distant rumble of this wild joy had subsided, there ensued times of stress. Many were the all night sessions of copying up music notebooks for Miss Clarkg pasting pictures in geography portfolios for Miss Scott, and painting or printing for Miss Badger. Scarcely was there a single junior who did not confide to some slyly smiling senior this secret: Mr, Bennett is going to fail me in lan- guage. This anxiety had scarcely abated when all the world was asking, Who is going to teach the first quarter? And when the assignments did come out- - -- - - - such was the uproar that a Greek Apollo might have been dropped into the midst of 1914 and no one would have given him a passing glance. The which you will agree was a strange condition of affairs in New Paltz. But the great interest of affairs culminated in the junior play. That glorious day saw the defeat and final downfall of the hitherto unrivalled Ben Greet players. Thus the first eventful year ended. Time rolled on and the second year open- ed, but how differently! The frivolous scatter-brained children of the year before were now seen as stately, dignified teachers, walking briskly through the halls, now warning a junior to be cautious, now escorting one ntore timid than the rest tothe haven of a class room. S But after the first few days there was little time for the kindly word or the thoughtful courtesy. Teaching had begun in earnest and it was no uncommon sight to sec a girl run upstairs with cheeks flushed and tearful eyes, plunge into a circle of girls and declare in righteous tones that if jimmy did one thing more she was going to shake him 'til he'd think that the angel Gabriel had blown the horn and judgment day was here. And because of the success that followed from this quickening of the dead, nothing but A's, B's and sweeping compliments were show- ered upon this class. And as if still further to prove the saying that the virtuous are always re- warded came the gala day of the senior prom. Here, indeed were two delicious days when each girl actually had a whole man to herself and there was not one but felt that she would suffer any privation to enjoy this, hitherto unknown luxury. Then, as always happens in this mortal world, just as the storm always fol- lows the sunshine, once more the assignments earne out and confusion reigned supreme. This excitement was only quelled by the intermission of spring vaca- tion. From this time on nothing was heard except positions, salaries and superin- tcndents. But at last all matters of position were settled and the sturdy class of 1914 were ready to go broadcast through the land, bearing the seeds of wisdom, planted and tended by the painfully strict supervisors through the two years of cultivation at New Paltz. And who can tell what glorious flowers of genius and of noble worth may be the outcome of these tiny seeds. - Lillian Kerr. 1 ' 37 CLASS TPOEM QWith the usual apologies to Henry Wardsworth Longfellow.J You shall hear of New Paltz Normal, Of the laggards and the students, In this book you'll find the record, Read with sympathy and knowledge, Of the deeds and works accomplished, Of the victories and failures, Read of Victory, our leader, How she spurred us on to conquest, Read too of the strange adventures, That befell us on our journey Through the land of great endeavour To the fair land of achievement. Thanks to him the great magician, Whose great voice booms down the archway, At whose frowns the guilty shiver: Hear of him, the story-teller, Wizard hc, of rhyme and rhythm, He the master and the charmer Both in Literature and drama, Thank her too, majestic, silent, At whose signature we tremble, But whose counsel ever constant, Is a help and inspiration, Thanks to her the great truth-teacher, Who has made us more contented, Made the time pass much more gayly, With her joyous picture painting, To this great assembly gathered, To this legion of the learned, To our comrades famed and famous, Sheltered in this silent valley, When the purple mists descending, Veil the iiery, summer sunset: In the ling'ring limpid twilight, When the sweet dusk deepens, deepens, And the new moon rises slowly, And the wind sighs in the treetops, May we breathe, Oh Alma Mater, Our farewells, but not forever. 38 M.

In the past we have sat at thy feet and have learned Of the deeds of a great race of men, ' And our hearts have been touched with thy spirit and yearned That we might repeat them again. For thou hast been true in thy purpose and aim, And our steps have been guided by thee From the childish sweet dreams of an eas'ly won fame, And you've opened our eyes so we see. When the years have flown by and we visit once more The dear scenes of our early endeavor, To sing once again as we sang oft of yoreg Oh New Paltz for ever and ever! May nothing be dimmed nor the sunlight less bright, As it kisses the Hag on the hill, And we'll linger again in thy halls with delight And obey once again thy stern will. And we celebrate now in this glorious hour The great gift of thy bountiful hand, Which bestowed on us talents of knowledge and power To distribute far over the land. Farewell! May thy sun never set in its sky, But rise ever higher and shine With a lustre and radiance which naught can decry, To make all thy glory divine. 41 M.A.D PATH TO GIANTS WORKSHOP TRIP TO MOHONK About the time when the students of the New Paltz Normal begin to feel the first pangs of homesickness, it is the delightful custom of the school to take a junior trip to Lake Mohonk. Consequently one beautiful morning in September last year about one hundred seventy girls could be seen hurrying from all parts of the town in order to reach the normallschool by eight o'clock. In front of the building over a dozen four seated carriages were awaiting these 'excited girls. Such clamoring and bustling around there was then, getting in and out of wagons and changing seats, one would think that the caravan was about to start on a tour around the world.. Finally we were all agreeably seated and the procession wound around the cir- cle, down the hill amid songs and cheers. We passed quickly through the town, rattled over the Walkill and on to the Mohonk gateway. ' Now as we went under the memorial arch we began to look about with inter- est and our eyes opened wider and wider with pleasure as the beauties of the mountain scenery appeared to us on our way up the Shawangunk. Here and there in clefts between jagged rocks a glowing maple beckoned to us, leading us ever 'nearer to the summit of far famed Skytop. As the road curved we could see the first carriages circling the ledge above us. Frequently a little brook came tumbling down the hill and ran along the road add- ing freshness to the scene. Then a bright eyed Miss spied a tiny summer house nearby. Claire remarked that this must be one of the many Mohonk spoonholders. I could not imagine why they had been given this name but helped restrain a couple of my comrades who wished to leave the carriage and I suppose - - view the scenery from this point. Often some of us would leave the carriages to lighten the loads, then run up a crosspath, hello to the other girls, after which our good natured driver would pull 'up his horses, in we would tumble and go merrily on our way singing until we were hoarse. Up, up, and up the mountain we went and at last as we came around past a huge boulder there, directly before us, lay the shimmering lake with the beautiful turretted Mohonk House reflected on its surface. The road could not terminate on a more pleasing picture. It was almost noon so we went directly to Picnic Lodge where the more hi- larious proceded to auction off pickles, for olives, eggs for sandwiches and grapes for peaches. ' 43 Then some one announced that Mr. Donaldson would guide those who wished to go up the crevice. Of course the timid did not attempt this but many were the brave. Such a climb it was, elambering over rocks, slipping on pine needles, in a very few minutes some of the girls turned back and it was Well that they did for im- mediately we were in a narrow pass where all had to keep moving. History tells us that hollows like this were hiding places of the Indians and we could almost im- agine that their spirits were there then, it seemed so dark and gruesome. just then we saw streaks of sunlight overhead and heard the shouts of the girls who were the first to reach the top. This spurred us on. Now there was only the last tight place where we had just a foothold and with no little difiiculty we wormed through the lemon-squeezer and, lo, we stood safely on the summit of' Skytop and gazedround over the wonderful panorama, sloping mountains, peace- ful valleys and far in the distance, the hazy blue of the Catskills. A feeling of reverence and awe could not help but steal over us at this time, for everywhere were evidences of Him who formed the everlasting hills. We spent the remainder of the day exploring the gardens, taking pictures and walking over the splendid drives. At four o'eloek happy but tired girls returned to the carriages and enjoyed a pleasant drive through the gardens, past Eagle cliff tower and from there to the rear of the spacious hotel where Mr. A. K. Smiley stood on the lawn bowing his gracious farewell which was a fitting benedietion for that never to be forgotten day, M. C.

Each town was represented by a gaily decorated wagon, over which loving citizens have labored for days displaying their artistic temperaments. Horns and -cheers fortold the coming of the pageant, as the Ben Hurs drove into town with a flourish. The fete was held by the river on the former Normal grounds. The whole world was cordially invited there bv the whistle of the peanut-man, aided by the excited shrieks of delight from the children, the yells of the pop corn man, and the stirring music of the band, all of which sent thrills up and down even the Methodist deacon's vertebrae. Under the elms, was a group eating ice-cream cones, their tongues conspicu- ously playing the part of spoons. The mother with her eight children was there to enjoy the picnic, lugging .Timmie's red coat, her daughters' sweaters, the rag-doll Eliza brought, and the lunch for all. Although it was only eight-thirty, her clinging four-year old implored from between the coats, Ma, can't we have lunch? The crafty deceiver sold his jewels to those who unselfishly wished to remem- ber dear ones left at home, and badges to those swains who wished to announce, I am not married. Abovc all was heard the cries of the squaker-man. The calf-like cries of his toys broke the cord of sympathy in each child's breast. No boy was happy till he, too, was master of that rich, heart-touching sound. 4 45 The attention of everybody was now directed toward the loud applause which arose near the athletic field. Binnewatcr had won in the high-jump. So the morning passed. Everyone knew everyone else or soon became acquainted. At last luncheon was served. Mothers and older sisters passed round the long-awaited sandwiches, which were of generous rather than of dainty size. One o'clock came, the eventful hour of the parade. Everyone scrambled for a place which he thought the best. The floats were all in readiness and each person prepared to cheer loudest for the one he had helped to create. At this precise moment, a black cloud appeared on the horizon. Suddenly, it seemed as though the sky opened and down came the rain. It came faster and faster. A heavenly hose was aimed at each person. They didn't wait for friend or brother, nor did age hinder speed. They flew. How water scatters a crowd! They were a forlorn, bedraggled looking crowd. The stiff, starched clothes clung close to their owners in very latest style. Gone were the waving locks of the morning. About four o'clock, it cleared and gradually, silently the people disappeared: horns and flags out of sight. The space left in the newspaper for a glowing account of Field Day had to an- nounce Rain!

One day last year there was great excitement around the bulletin board at school and we, the Juniors, were the cause of it. No one could blame us, how- ever, not even Dr. Bliss for had he not put up a card upon which we were to place our nominations for the organization of the junior Literary Society? No wonder we were excited for this was the first time since we had come to N. P. N.-and we had been here about a month-, that anyone had paid much attention to us. Nei- ther had we really done anything for ourselves as a class. Dr. Bliss soon came for the nomination card and the meeting began. The election was snappy and the following officers were quickly chosen: Sarah Quinn, Presidentg Marie Dayton, Secretaryg john Finerty-one of the two illustrious boys of the class-Treasurer. Then we should not forget Arthur Silliman, who was appointed to sit at the door and keep all stragglers out. Dr. Bliss said that if the aisles were wider he would escort the President to the front where he would invite her to make a speech. There was good evidence, however, that this was a joke. ' Our meetings were eagerly looked forward to all the week and we invariably opened by the declaration of our treasurer, as he rubbed his hands together,-that we now had one hundred forty eight cents in the treasury. We always waited eagerly for the President to announce the author, whom we were to study. Sally usually did this by saying: To-day we shall take up Eugene Field. She did not always say Eugene Field, however, for our programmes were var- ied. Some weeks we spent delightful periods with james Whitcomb Riley or Paul Laurence Dunbar, or Richard Harding Davis or with many another modern American author. ' 6 l We all felt grateful, indeed, to the programme committees and especially to Mr. Bennett, the father of our society, .for the interesting programmes that were presented each Week. The untiring zeal of the president and the faithfulness of Mr. Bennett in reading to us when the numbers were short deserve the thanks. of all the members. ' The one great occasion of the year was our open meeting given in February. The girls, all in white, marched into the normal chapel and the hour passed with Paul Laurence Dunbar was an occasion still remembered. At the end of the year the society gave the trial scene from the Merchant of Venice. The work throughout the year was not only entertaining but it was peculiarly helpful for the course introduced to us many delightful authors whose books have F been a joy to us, whose readings have been often heard from the chapel platform and whose selections have been given so frequently by us in the grades. 62 'w i i EVENTS n VM 1 11 f , fm 420 'A .wrwgx ' .W Z' v X Nb ly w W F 952W- N W .

Razzle dazzle! Greens are beaten to a frazzle! Reds! Reds! Reds! What is this? Oh it's one of the yells used at the Indoor Meet in March. Describe the Meet ? It is almost indescribable. On that eventful night, no sooner were the doors opened than there poured, into the gymnasium, a crowd of rushing, pushing, jostling humanity. Piled row above row on one side were the greensg tier above tier on the other side, the reds. The running track and stage were packed to overflowing. Here and there darted the excited participants. ' Kalamazoo ! mazoo! mazoo! Rah! Rah! Rah! Each cheer leader running excitedly about wildly waving his anns in the airy each song leader striving, in vain to make herself heard, added to the general up- roar. Ready! One! two! three! and then a jolly discordant medley of shouts and yells: then silence. The gram- mar girls jurnp-and-climb relay race was ong the object was to jump over double rows of Indian clubs, climb a rope to a certain mark and run back for the next girl. Shouts-loud and piercing: the greens won. It seemed that the windows would burst with the cheers that rent the air. 64 Attention was next centered in the other end of the gym where two youngsters seated on a log, elevated six feet from the floor, battled with red and green bags of excelsior. Down went the first as if shot! The second couple, fighting stubbornly like game roosters, never yielded one inch but finally, red-faced and hot, they were taken down and two more were put up. The green lost his balance and dis- appeared. Vanquished? No--for hanging on with his feet, monkey-fashion, he aimed blow after blow at his antagonist till they, too, were taken down. Next in rapid succession came the advance relay raceg Indian wrestlingg march- ing to jerusalem, running high jump, dodge ball, Japanese crab race, basket- ball throwg leap frog race, fifteen yard dash and tug of war. The victories Huctuatedg first one side won, then the other and all the while that constant roar of applause and perfect volcano of calls, yells and songs rose and fell, echoed and re-echoed through the corridors. Each side strove to out do the other. One of the noisiest yells was the horse laugh which each side employed as a hymn of derision for the defeat of the other side. The score was finally favorable to the reds-perfect bedlam broke loose. Nev- er was heard such noise from human voices, 'twas an earthquake of pent up emo- tion, if there were any pent up emotion after that final event. No leader could make himself ihearclg no leader tried but the victorious reds marched the march of triumph amid tumults of applause, songs and cheers. : l llsa- SCE' 'f xi-' ET 4.145 js, L- ,. zlli-3 5? -... i. af- 65 ASSISTIN G Assisting is good exercise, Of that there is no doubt, It's,- Take this to the janitor, He's somewhere round-about.

'Then to Swan said the Badger, Let's ask Matte's-son 'Though he's Old's Father Adam 'tis true, .And must walk with a Cain while his wife passes by With her horse and Herrig bright and new. Wright away the two started to find their friend's home But, finding it, Moore delays met. A fox had frequented their friend's neighborhood And so poor Matte's-son had Bennett. A. H.

For the clock is slowly striking half past eight And some girls are straying, staying out too late And the rest of us are thinking of their fate, When the faculty come calling. How dear to our hearts are the plans and the sketches, That fond recollection recalls to our view, The questions, the answers, the generalizations, The thousand things else that we knew we must do. 68 K.
