introduction Foreword Here in this book we view Our last complete assemblage. Believing that this volume With its friendly faces and Schoolday memories will give Pleasure in the years that Are to come, we face the Future with happy anticipation. Always will the 1931 Cardinal Stand as a symbol of our Pride in P. S. N. S. A part of which we are And always shall be. Dedication As an expression of appreciation to a cultured gentleman and a real man, one who has been to us for three years a loyal friend and a wise counselor, we, the Class of 1931, take pleasure in dedicating this 17th volume of the Cardinal to John H. Rusterholtz John H. Rusterholtz Mr. John H. EtusterholU was born in Erie County. Pa., where lit attended the public schools. In 1910s lie was graduated from the State Normal School in Kdinboro, Pa. He received his Sc.B. in 1!)17. from the Uni- versity of Chicago, and in 1927, he received his A.M. from Columbia L ' nivcrsity. His teaching experience is a true index of a progressive man. His first position was in Gothenburg. Neb., a.s principal of the high school. Since that first position he has been: Principal of Township High School. Kric. Pa.; Head of the Science Depart- ment, Gridhv High School. Kric. Pa.; Instructor in Science. Uni- versity School. Cleveland. Ohio; Head of the Department of Chemistry. Academy School. Kric. Pa.: Head of the Department of Science. Saranac Lake High School. Saranae Lake. N. Y. In Mr. Rusterholtz became a member of the faculty of I ' l attsburgh State Normal School. We now find his name on the roll of the summer school faculty as well as that of the regidar session. The class of I! 31 was most fortunate in securing Mr. Ruster- holtz a.s its faculty advisor during its Freshman year, and he has continued in that capacity for three years. The class of 1981 extends to Mr. Rusterholtz best wishes for success in all his undertakings. To the Graduating Class of the I ' lattslmrgh Stale Normal School: It {jives mi- great pleasure to express to you my thanks for the honor of this dedication. From an experience of three years with the class, and personal acquaintance with the individual members, I have the fullest confidence in vour future. The one cardinal principle which I helieve should be in the creed of every teacher may he .summed up in the motto of a great university, namely: Cn-scat Scientia Vita Excolaiur (Let knowledge grow, let life he enriched). Any influence that tends to -suppress or thwart this growth and enrichment a true teacher regards as perilous. The professional spirit which animates the successful teacher is essentially one of service. The compelling urge in teaching springs from a conviction that ignorance is bondage and that knowledge makes men free. Your work here has been char- acterized by expression of that -spirit and of that dynamic urge. May the goals you have set for yourselves and your daily practice grow more and more completely harmonious as you progress in your work. Si ti ii The Normal They ' ll have a line new building And .some new equipment too ; But they cannot change the campus And they cannot change the view. The students may be different. The Commercials may be gone ; But there ' ll be the same old spirit Aero.ss that dear old lawn. We may not show the feeling That leaving Normal brings, But three years make a difference In life and friends and things. We ' ve gained a different outlook — Seen another ' s point of view; We ' ve lived in new surroundings. And formed new habits too. The tilings you ' ve taught will linger Though the old seems change to new, And we ' ll hold in happy memory All the days we spent witli you. In the far dim distant future Just the happy things will stay, And we ' ll think of yon and love you As we journey on our way. Dolus Wi To the Class of 1931: All of the facts of the world with which we arc familiar and of which we have yet to learn exist merely for that procedure which you have chosen for the theme and purpose of your living -the education of man. Hooks, libraries, paintings, poetry, music, oratory, science, practical arts and all the vari.d human reactions in behavior to every recorded thought since time began, possess a spiritual unity and are hut commentaries upon that ideal sell which none of us has yet attained but which we all feel is not utterly unattainable. Your value as great teachers, then, will consist not chiefly of dexterity in manual or even intellectual skills but in the deeper apprehension of that spirit which can also awaken other souls to greater appreciation and self-activity.

If we stay on the job we ought to be out rustling neirs. If we ore out rustling pews, we ore not iittendini to business in our own department. If we do not print contributions, we don ' t show proper appreciation If we print them, the book is full of junk. Like us not some fellow Will soy we swiped this from some exchange. Well, so we did!

Seaworthy as the hest. Three years she ' s sailed courageously unknown, uncharted seas. Kver toward that perfect land home onward hy the hrcoM As Kismet guides her on. Wild the wind and wild the waves that heat against her prow. Hut to the fury of the storm the Viking does not how Nor cease till work is done. Viking eyes forever watching for a land perhaps a wraith. Viking hearts forever valiant. Viking souls still full of faith. Sailing toward the sun. Land of every Viking ' s longing lighted now hy sunset ' s tire. Land for which we ' ve long heeii waiting — Land of our Desire. Safe now in port at last. And now she rests and gently rocks hel ' ore the setting sun. Viking ship of honored IMHM — Ship of Thirty-One. Hot long hard journey past. IIkI.KN BlIOMl.EY.

Otis Novcs Seventy-three Junior Class History It was in September, Ii)2 ). that forty-one Freshmen entered Plattsburgh State Normal School to start upon what seemed at that time to he merely three years of hard work. However, as we eome to the close of the second year we realize, that there have been many pleasures, long to be remembered, intermingled with this work. Although we were very small in number at that time, we firmly believed that quantity was not all. and, like all Freshmen, we were confident that our class was of the finest quality. After entering, our first step was to organize the class. We chose Kdward Lavigne as our president, Doris King, vice-president, Ann Humphrey, treasurer, and Sybil Brown, secretary. At the same time we also very wisely chose Mr. Noyes. who has proven a true friend to our class and a great helper in all our difficulties, as faculty advisor. At a later date Frances Hunter was chosen to represent our class on the Cardinal staff. Our entrance into the social activities af Normal came when the uppcrclassmen gave a dance as a welcome to the Freshmen. In appreciation for this we gave them a return dance at a later date. However, it was not until mid-year that the Freshman class really stepped into the limelight. It was at this time that we gave the Mid-year Dance which was a success in every way. We were very much encouraged by this, and decided more firmly than ever to make all our class undertakings a success. After this event things returned to their natural course. The days quickly slipped by until May. when our class gave a moonlight excursion on Lake Champlain, which was enjoyed by all. A short time after this, examinations brought our first year of Normal to a close. In September we returned, not as Freshmen now, but as Juniors. We found that few of our former members were not to be with us again this year; also, that some new ones had joined our group. Very shortly after coming together again we met to select those who were to be our leaders for the year. Mr. Noyes and Kdward Lavigne again filled their former posts. Patricia Kelly was chosen vice-president, Mildred I.eazotte. treas- urer. Louise Washburn, secretary, and Doris King as CARDINAL representative. Our first step .after organization was to prepare for a series of lectures. These lectures, sponsored by our class, were given at different dates throughout the winter. They have proven to be most interesting to those attending, and we feel that they were beneficial and successful in all respects. However, the most important social event of the Junior class, the Junior From, does not come until the very close of the year. It is this that we have looked for- Bavtnty-ftoa ward to throughout tin- year and to which we have put forth our greatest effort, that it may be an outstanding activity. We truly hope our prom will hi- as successful as those of the pa.st years. Now at the elose of our .Junior year, realising that two years of our 1 ' . S. N. S. course have heen completed, we look forward with high hopes to the last year as Seniors. At that time we wish to place our class in the list with those classes which have lii-en termed successful not alone for themselves, hut likewise for their school. Doris Kino.

The first scene shows a large group of young people coming into the C ity Hall. They are laughing among themselves, yet they look rather embarrassed when upper - classnien notice them. They seem eager for what is to come and all of the scenes portraying the first few weeks show them to be alert and interested in their new work. There we see them seated in their room, looking quite serious for a change. What is happening? Ah! Election of officers. We hear several nominations made for each office and then the results of the election read: President, Ruth Gonyea, Vice-President, Margaret Coopy, Secretary. Bertha Jaques, Treasurer, Bernice King, Cahdi.val Representative, Mildred Carter. Next we hear Mr. Brown accepting with a few witty and appropriate remarks, the responsibility of being Freshman Class Advisor. The setting changes and we see the freshmen among several of the upperclass- men. They are dancing. Apparently the Seniors and Juniors are entertaining them. The Freshmen s eem very grateful and everyone is having a good time. With the same setting we now see the Freshmen as gracious hosts to the upper- classmen. The climax of this talkie hit is shown in colors with a background of brown and orange. It is the annual Mid-year Ball. By looking at the faces of each person present, we can see that the dance is a great success. An important part of the picture of this dance is the Freshman Banner. Made in the class colors, brown and orange, it is the most attractive banner ever chosen by a class in P. S. N. S. The last scene is the minstrel show being given in assembly on March 5. By the laughter of the audience the effort put forth by the class has been well received. We have reached the end of reel one in the history of the class of ' 33. How anxiously we are awaiting the second reel! Helen Cahpenteh. K ' njht ji-ime The annual Mid-year Ball, sponsored by the Freshman class, was given in the Masonic Temple. February 13. With the ball room tastefully decorated in the class colors of brown and orange, the popular Robert ' s Orchestra furnishing the music, and over a hundred couples in attendance the dance was easily an outstanding event of the year. During the evening the result of a popularity contest conducted by the Cardinal Staff was announced. Miss Virginia Whiting was chosen the most popular girl of the school and was crowned Queen of the Plattsburgb State Normal School by Mr. William Thompson. Ruth Gonyea, ' 33.

Senior Class History The mis ts hung heavily over tin- weathered bark the figurehead loomed staunch and fearless in the grey light — volunteers from all over the state, one hundred and fifty strong, clambered aboard. We were off the elass of 1931, the last of our kind though we knew it not, to carry the torch of our beloved Normal into the battle for knowledge. The leader of the stalwart band was Lawrence Thornton. Evelyn Savage was chosen as his aid, Helen Rooney to keep an account of the voyage and Wilbur Edmonds to guard the gold and silver. To guide them all we chose a faithful elder. Mr. Ruster- holtz. as advisor. And, in order that our victorious journey might go down in the annals of the mighty, we chose Dwight Warren as our Cardinal Representative. With such a beginning is there any wonder we can say: Classes may come Classes may go But ours goes on forever. We were welcomed into the ranks of experienced seamen by the upperclass mcii and returned the honor with a dance aboard ship which was resplendent in our colors blue and silver. The figurehead now boasted of a motto. Speak not without knowledge. ' 1 he sea became choppy. We encountered examinations. We were caught in a whirlwind of rush activities and one by one our members joined their respective clans. Then without a warning our valiant ship was destroyed. Chaos reigned. But ever brave in the face of defeat, we resumed our voyage aboard a new vessel, the City Hall. To celebrate we gave our annual Midyear Ball and many the sailor and his lass who attended. The days slipped by — the first lap of our voyage was over, we were giving the farewell salute to our Senior comrades. We disbanded on a ten weeks ' leave, resuming our way in September with Francis Coste at the helm. Marion Lull as aid. Margaret Cathcart keeping the log and Irene Bruno presiding over the coffers. The time to record our accomplishments and to keep them to be handed down till time amen having come, wc chose Virginia Whiting as the Editor-in-Chief of our CARDINAL, and Eric Hansen as Business Manager. Smooth sailing was ours with only a few classmates left ashore. Wc lost our leader, Francis Coste, but by the consent of all, Marion Lull took his place and kept us on a successful course. The Junior Prom marked the end of another year of friendships, the completion of our last year of apprenticeship. We were now most noble Seniors, trusty, weathered seamen. Eighty-nine To make tin- cruise more enjoy utile we evolved entertainment among ourselves and our members gave a play and sang for the assemblage. And yet again we, donned our festal costumes and made music in a piano recital] the first oi its kind. September and we responded again to the blare of trumpets. Our bark sailed out lazily on friendly waves with Claude Wood piloting. Ruth Armstrong as aid. Charles lunnell keeping the ship accounts and Kli abeth I.ee presiding over our moneys. Far out on our course we came upon a rainbow of myriad lights. We assembled on deck — a throng of enthusiastic listeners to Mr. Kusterholtz. supreme Oil the trumpet: the crooning of Wilbur Kdmonds : Francis Bratt and Marion Lull remind- ing us to Tie A Little String Around Our Fingers - -as if we could forget; the roll and rumble of our men ' s quartet vying with the cadence of the waves; watchers of Marie Kinney ' s dancing feet: and as an indelible memory the far away strains of muted Violins; something we will yet remember When Our Hair Has Turned To Silver. Superior and supreme that program— the fitting climax to the superior activities of a supreme class. Those three years we set aside for this attainment — can it be they have slipped by so quickly, so happily? Our search together is almo.it over — the port. Gradua- tion, is just ahead. The little boats arc lowered from the Mother Ship, to put out to sea. each in his own way. The salute this time breaks the stillness for us. We leave behind us the torch, for you to carry on for the glory of this time-honored institution. We lower our colors from the mast. Farewell, you who stay behind. Farewell and good luck from the Class of Nineteen Thirty-one. Francis M. Buatt. Tflnttg During the last twelve years the nations of the world have had their eyes turned toward a goa]— planning, hoping, and seeking quite in vain. The goal is evident, it is concrete, but the means of reaching this pinnacle of accomplishment, which may he likened to the glass mountain of ancient legend, is the problem, the worry, and the despair of the nations. It is the bone of contention that is keeping us from success. How may the goal be attained? From the viewpoint of many, and incidentally this includes myself, the task, for task it is. rests with the schools in general and the elementary school in particu- lar. World peace can be gained only through Education, which has its foundation in the elementary school. War may be likened to a disease. In the school we teach abhorrence of unclean, of immoral, and of anti-social practices. Just SO may we teach abhorrence of war, and the viewing of war as an anti-social condition. Before the World War the glories of war and My Country Right or Wrong! formed the nucleus of all instruction. Is it to be marvelled at that people were so quick to war. so quick to fly at each others ' throats? The glories of war were instilled as habits. What then? Strife and resulting war that was not so glorious in reality. Careers were ruined and the young, the fresh, the best blood of nations wasted. The condition has been somewhat alleviated through the reformation of the elementary school, but that reformation must extend still further through the same medium if the goal is to be reached. It is in the elementary school that habits and attitudes must be and are formed. Consideration for the rights of others and willingness to cooperate are powerful attitudes. This latter factor is a tremendous aid and must be inculcated in the minds and very beings of the youth of today. It is the one thing that is keeping us from the ultimate goal. The men of affairs today are of the old school. The value of cooperation was not taught to them in their lower-grade days. The maxim taught was Every man for himself and tin devil take the hindermost. It is in the elementary school that these habits. Peace Habits, we might call them, must be sown and cultivated. The herculean task of doing this rests with the elementary school. It lies with the elementary school to teach, to instill, and to breed in the minds of its wards the idea that they shall not allow strife and dissension to arise between the nations of the world; that they shall not allow civilization and culture to be transfixed by the insidious sword of the god of war, but rather that nation shall be unto nation as a brother unto brother and that an eternal era of peace and good-will shall pervade and reign over the activities of mankind throughout the entire world. Eric H. Hansen. Charge to the Juniors Juniors! The day has arrived for which the Seniors have been looking ond planning since they entered the Plattsburgh State Normal School in September, l!)2N. Our education in this institution has been completed and tomorrow we are undertaking a task which has many more responsibilities than the one which we arc leaving. During our three years here we have advanced the ideals and standards of our Alma Mater, and it is with some misgivings that we turn over the con- tinuance of this task to you. Do not misunderstand us. We do not mean to say that you arc incapable of accomplishing these tusks set before you. hut we do maintain that you have got to change your attitude. During your Freshman year, you showed the signs of being one of the best classes which ever attended this institution. There was nothing that you undertook which was not entirely suc- cessful. However, this year you have fallen down cm the job. You did not seem to have the proper class spirit, which is so necessary if you are going to be successful, The tables were turned, and everything you undertook this year has been a failure. Remember this. Juniors, it is not the team that allows each member to work tor himself, nor is it the team that spurts ahead and then quits, thinking the game is won. that ultimately achieves its goal. It is the group that has teamwork and cooperation, whose members plod on steadily toward a delinite objective, that finally accomplishes worthwhile things. Therein lies your whole trouble. Because you wen- successful as a Freshman class, you thought that all you had to do your Junior year was to take things easy. You had conquered only in the slightest sense of the word, when you consider that to be a successful class you must do tilings for three years, not for one year. Will you not take time to review the activities of your class during the past year, so that you may realize what your faults have been and how easy it would be for you to correct them if every member of the class would do his little hit? We realize that you are greatly handicapped in having such a small number in your ranks, hut that does not necessarily spell failure. It is not going to be an easy task for you to reach the goal which we have already established. However, remember that you probably will be the first class to be graduated from the new Normal School building. Make every efTort to lie worthy of this distinction. We know you can if you will. It has not been our intention to criticize your actions, nor to laugh at you. We have not made any sweeping, sarcastic remarks just to hear ourselves talk, but we honestly believe that you have fallen down in pushing your class to the front ranks during this year. You hav« fallen by the roadside, hut you are not out of the race. You merely lack class spirit and loyalty which arc so essential to success, regardless of what you are attempting. Why don ' t you, as the Senior class of 15)32. make that year your banner year both in scholastic standing and social events? Stop fooling yourselves that you will attain success without working for it. then get behind your class officers and do things. Do not let anyone say when you leave this institution that you have failed, but rather let them say that you have been a success regardless of handicaps and inconveniences. If you will match your ability with the proper attitude, we may yet see the class of 1932 accomplish things. Brrtis VaNDEbSchaafF. XtHetj ' tren Answer to the Senior Charge The hour of parting has conn-. Rivalry seems futile now that you, our friends, are leaving. Even so, it is difficult for us to refrain from presenting our candid opinion of you. All in all. you are not a bad class, and we admire your valiant efforts to be scholars, although there isn ' t a doubt that you developed some pitiful cases of superiority complexes during the process. As Freshmen we recognized this trait because you helped to make us so uncom- fortable. As Juniors we were not slighted so noticeably by our illustrious superiors, but you maintained an aloofness which no amount of good nature on our part could condone. Not only did you enrage us by your supercilious attitude, but also by your feeling toward the school. Although class spirit was prevalent among you. school spirit was conspicuously lacking. You never gave the underclassmen a helping hand did your While class spirit is a fine thing as you proved to us by your many suc- cesses, aiding others does not seem to be one of your virtues. In your individual experiences you will undoubtedly learn that to have success yourself is to help others. We have given this advice. Seniors, because we believe it will be valuable to you provided you follow it. Now. Graduates, don ' t think too harshly of us in parting. As we say good-bye. we ask you to remember your debt of loyalty to your Alma Mater. As for us. we will carry on to the best of our ability strengthened by the knowledge that some- where out in the world you are anxiously hoping for our success, and for the continued success of Plattsburgh Normal School. After all. who are we to judge you and who are you to judge us? Let us recall Kipling ' s I. ' Envoi : And only the muster h ' hall praise us. And only the master shall blame, And no one shall work for money And no one shall work for fame - But each for the joy of working! And each in his separate star. Shall paint the thing as he sees it For the God of things as they are. Adieu. Seniors! May all the good wishes which the. Junior class extends to you today, come true. Dokothy M. Tart. Xinel y-thr«t Mantle Oration The planting of the beautiful Ivy which was seen clinging on the walla of our beloved old Normal School Building is the way in which classes formerly paid tribute to our dear Alma Maler. As a result of our great misfortune which made this impressive ceremony impossible, the class of 1!) ' J!) originated the Mantle Oration. Now we have conic to a parting in e.ur ways. Some of us will go into Un- professional field while others will enter higher institutions of learning, hut may we all play our parts in a way that will bring glory to our Alma Mater. This Mantle, though plain in appearance, is a symbol of the many happy hours spent at the Plattsburgh State Normal School. It clothes us with an air of distinction and of leadership. It represents the fulfillment of the duties, respon- sibilities, and traditions which belong to every Senior class. With pride we received this Mantle from tile class of 1980 one year ago today. With pleasure we now place it upon the shoulders of the class of 1932. Seniors, may you carry out its ideals and aspirations with all of the honor and dignity which is due our Alma Mater. ■Farewell! farewell! ' is often heard From the lips of IIiom- who part: Tis a whimpered tone, tis a gentle word. Hill it springs not from tin- heart. It may s-.-rve for the lover ' s closing lay.

In the guise of courtly speech: Hut when we leave the kind and dear, Tis not what the soul would teach. Whene ' er we grasp the hands of those We would have forever nigh.

Ninety-four Reply to Mantle Oration In behalf f the Jnriiox class, I accept this mantle from you, the Senior Class, So we take it from your shoulders so also do we take all the duties and responsibilities of a Senior Class. You have borne these duties and responsibilities faithfully for three years, and now as you depart, we shall attempt to take your plaee and keep up the standards you have set for us. We realize our inadequacy for the task which lies before us, but with your support and the support of Senior classes of other days — we pledge you our word — we cannot fail. Genevieve 1 )ouoi.as8. Ninety-five President ' s Address Members of the Faculty, Classmates, Parents, and Friends: Again a class lias achieved that goal to which every class looks forward — graduation. We have succeeded in spite of the fact that practically all of our three years hare been spent under the greatest of handicaps. The burning of our school home in our first year was certainly a disheartening experience, hut did it discourage us: Judge for yourself. Very few left the class and by a splendid Spirit of cooperation we were again organized within three days. This cooperation- a thing without which no class or institution can succeed- -has continued to the last. So here we are! There is one lesson, ladies and gentlemen, that this year ' s senior class has learned which no other class has learned so thoroughly. That is the practical knowledge derived from the experience of overcoming seemingly unconquerable difficulties. Because we have been thrown into closer contact with each other, more intimate friendships have been formed. This has taught us a high principle, for these friendly relationships have given us greater respect for each other. Dr. Hawkins and members of the faculty, we appreciate your untiring efforts to instill within us higher ideals. Let us try. as a class, to live up to those ideals so well established by our teachers. Classmates, no douht this is our united farewell. We may all meet again at some future time, hut never will it he in one spirit and with one intention. You have, during the past year, bestowed upon me an honor which only one of the class could have. I wish to thank you for having chosen me to serve you as President. It is a memory that will lonjj he cherished. Although regretting that it has ended all too soon, let me say good-bye in a spirit of cheerfulness and optimism : Let Fate do her worst, there are relics of joy. Bright dreams of the past, which she cannot destroy; Which come in the night-time of sorrow and care. And brinjr hack the features that joy used to wear. [.onK Ions he our hearts with such memories filled! Like the vase in which roses have once heen di-tilh-d; You may break, you may shatter the vase, if you will Hut the SCent of the roses will hanjr ' round it still. Claude A. Wood. Xiiii-ttf-itis Valedictory Education for a Progressive Civilization Educational leaders of America are by study and experiment adjusting educa- tional methods to meet the needs of a rapidly changing nation. We should realize that experiment is equally as necessary for development and improvement in educational methods and subject matter as it is for perfecting scientific and mechanical appliances. Twenty years of experiment have found that the educational methods used in the days of oil lamps are quite insufficient and unsatisfactory in this day of the airplane, radio and television. True education is no longer limited to reading, writing, arithmetic. Greek and Latin because these subjects alone are not sufficient to prepare boys and girls to meet 19i0 competition and to battle the dozens of problems which were unheard of twenty years ago. The editor of the Journal of Education has made this sig- nificant comment: All teaching must be new teaching, because all children must learn in a new world. Rather than condemn educational leaders for experimenting, it would seem much fairer to accuse these same men and women of a breach of public trust should they fail to experiment sanely, intelligently, and enthusiastically in an honest and exhaustive effort to harmonize educational methods and subject matter with the needs of a progressive and changing civilization. The most popular plans for school organization started as experiments. It is generally recognized that these improved systems are superior to the old methods which made the teacher a slave to a text hook and to the question and answer method. It is as fallacious to say that there is one true plan or method of education as it is to say that there is only one type of kitchen range which will do effective and efficient work. If one ' s home is piped for gas, it is probably best to buy a gas range. If not. an electric range may do the work just as well or better. And so it is with education. The type of organization is governed by local conditions, the qualifications of the teacher, the intelligence and background of the pupils, the equipment available. Too many people have the idea that subject matter and methods are no good unless they are so difficult that children hate them. Why not make school interest- ing? The cultural and practical value of the schoolroom is enhanced rather than depreciated when the work is made interesting. Tasteless coloring mixed evenly makes imitation butter more appetising. Many grown men and women refuse to take medicine which does not have an agreeable flavor. If mature men and women can be persuaded to take the proper nourishment by merely changing its flavor or color, they should not deny the schools the oppor- tunity of applying these same psychological principles in an effort to develop the immature minds, intellects, and attitudes of boys and girls. The best public schools in the country are applying these principles with remarkable success. We are con- vinced, after years of experience, that children learn more, remember it longer, and develop finer and more wholesome attitudes when the presentation of the subject matter is made interesting. When .-ill is said and dour, however, onl the heart of the teacher ever really knows the child, or reaches the youth with encouragement and inspiration for the years to come. Only the art of the teacher — not the science of the research worker — directly performs the actual work of true teaching so necessary for a progressive civilization. May our teaching be of that very type, true ieoclmiij ; teaching which will instill in our pupils right attitudes; teaching which will build for sound character, true worth, and service; teaching which will make the communities into which we go better places in which to live because we arc there guiding the future citi .ens of those communities toward a more useful life of abundant service. May we as teachers help to make the schools of our country the torch bearers of toinorrw ' s progress. For three years we. the class of 1931. have worked and played together with true professional spirit. Our three years at I ' lattsburgh State Normal have brought us experiences and friendships which have enriched our lives. We consider the treasures of these years very precious permanent possessions. This Commencement morning is for us o day of victory, a day of gladness. Our graduation day marks for us a goal post toward the attainment of which we have earnestly worked. It is with much happiness that we realize that our Com- mencement day is here, and that we may go forth in our chosen profession with the seal of the state crowning our achievement. Our Commencement day is not a day of pretenses, so we admit very frankly that there is a touch of sadness connected with our graduation happiness, the sadness which comes when we realize that we must say farewell to much that we hold dear. Somehow these lines from Shelley ' s To a Skylark seem particularly appropriate at this time: Our sincerest laughter With BQRie pain is fraught; Our sweetest sonjrs are those that tell of saddest thought. To our friends who have made our temporary home in Plattsburgh pleasant and profitable, we say. farewell! To our fellow-students, we wish success and happiness in the years to come. We leave you with the feeling that we may trust you to carry on the work of our school in a commendable manner. To you. farewell ! To you. Doctor Hawkins and members of the Faculty, our leave-taking is tilled with the appreciation which comes from our association with those who so nobly typify the profession we have strived to attain. May our efforts be worthy of your guidance and encouragement. Fan-well ! Classmates, today marks the end of our years together, but I am sure their memories will ever linger in our thoughts. We have accomplished much as a group during our normal school days, anil it is my wish, as I know it is yours, also, that our individual accomplishments in the years to come may be worthy of these splendid years together. Classmates, to you I say a lingering farewell ! So. to you all. one last farewell, and may God bless you! Behnu k K. Halk. yinety-eiffht Our graduation day is here! How pleasant that sounds to us who have been laboring for three years to hear it. We are assembled today to commemorate the occasion, the crowning event of our career as students of the Pittsburgh State Normal School. We arc here, sustained by the knowledge of one more step com- pleted in the solution of life ' s problem. However, we realize that our success is due not to ourselves alone but also to you, through your encouragement and helpful guidance. Again you arc doing your part in sharing with us this day of success and joy. Your presence makes it more delightful and gratifying than it otherwise could possibly be. Members of the Faculty, Parents and Friends, the class of salutes yor and welcomes you to a share in the satisfaction and joy this day affords. There is an Art in Teaching Cicero maintained that not only is there an art in knowing a thing but also a certain art in teaching it. Art is said to be a familiarity with certain prin- ciples, and skill in applying them to an end or purpose. What occupation needs more familiarity with principles, and skill in applying them, than teaching? This fact is being recognized more and more. In no other Held of profes- sional work has the demand for more adequate preparation for service increased as rapidly as in that of teaching. Within relatively few years a definite system for granting credentials has been set up by the various states. Also, the require- ments for these credentials are being increased both in quantity and quality at a rapid rate. The demands for increased preparation have tended to stabilize the profession of teaching. With the lengthened program must come an enrichment of that program. To become a qualified educator in days to come as much training will be demanded as is now required of our physicians and doctors. Mr. Etiggs of the Indian Mountain School at I.akevillc. Connecticut, asserts that this would presuppose a rigorous train- ing in psychology and psychiatry, a technical skill in teaching one or two subjects, a grasp of education as a whole and an acquaintance with, and reverence for, knowl- edge (not merely a technique of imparting facts), with at least one such acquaint- ance ripened into an understanding friendship, in other words, true scholarship. Nevertheless to become a qualified teacher is not enough. Some have qualified as experts, hut. instead of encouraging a pupil to absorb what he cannot express, they encourage him to try to explain and express all his thoughts. It is said that Ninety-nine Many a person has been made different by contact with Beethoven ' s ' Fifth Sym- phony ' or Shakespeare ' s ' Sea Dirge, ' but, generally speaking, we are all happier if he does not try to express these gnat works in modern terms with a subway setting ' Imagination and a tine sense of the exquisite or the beautiful are quicken- ing factors in all our teaching efforts. Kven though the period of preparation has been lengthened and a person lias spent the allotted time in training, he should not feel that further study is unneces- sary. Regardless of the amount of original training, it is indispensable for teachers to participate in work and study that will bring to their attention the most modern practices within tbeir respective tic-Ids of professional work. Nor is length of preparation alone enough to furnish a reliable measure upon which to estimate teaching ability. The personality of the teacher is an important factor in the art of teaching. Let us briefly note some of the characteristics of an ideal teacher. First, hi ' lives a clean, blameless life so that the best influence can be exerted by him on the students. By his own actions in the classroom, honesty and justice must be proven to be essential to a person ' s character. In other words, it should be a Do us I do plan and not a Do as I say one. Cooperation is a vital element in the ideal teacher. This means not only with the pupils, but also with the parents of the pupils and members of the faculty. The ability to promote and to retain pleasant relationships with others Constitutes an important asset to anyone. A department in which friendly feeling and good work- ing exist is generally one where morale is high and efficiency prevails. Along with the foregoing must be a sympathetic, understanding nature, by which means, weak individuals will be encouraged and all of them stimulated to wholesome. Useful activity. The few points discussed here indicate something of the complexity of teach- ing. It seems an impossibility for anyone to ever reach the zenith of ability in this high calling, but it is not impossible for each of us to strive for the maximum familiarity with teaching principles and skillful application of them. By such striving we shall adorn the profession we have chosen. This is art. Browning gives us a thought which expresses nicely this idea when he savs: A man ' s resell should exceed his prasp. Ur what ' s a heaven forr A V HI) I A X. Reid. Oni- humlml J iterary Red and Black Witch eyes! Witch eyes! Turn us into cats. Kim old witch eyes! I ' m Dot scared. The tittle girl turned defiantly upon him. Her corn-tassel yellow curls blew about her lint face and fury raged in her unfathomable and surprisingly black eyes. ' ' Red-head! Red-head! Freckle-faced-red-head ! she shrieked. Who ' s fraid of you. ole freckle face? The little hoy with a dexterity denoting long practice, polled down the corners of his mouth, pushed his nose up with a grimy ringer and sticking out his tongue, leered at her with mocking blue eyes. You — -you — I hate you, the girl sohhed and catching up a sharp stone she Hung it with all her sturdy strength at those hateful eyes. Thud. It took the hoy very neatly just below his flaming red hair. The mocking look slipped from his face and he sat down rather suddenly in the dusty road. The little girl came and stood over him and looked at the little trickle of blood that ran down his grimy cheek from a cut just below the duller red of his hair. Hi- raised blue eyes full of anger and pain. Go ' way! Go way! he sobbed. The girl ' s black eyes rilled slowly with a quiet, cold fury. I hate you, she said slowly. Oh! I hate you. Just then a little breeze blew up from nowhere and it blew Father Time ' s pen away, and while he was looking for it the merry little breeze wrought havoc with his old record book. Flip, flip. Hip and over went twelve or fifteen pages — and Hello! Peggy Ann. you old dear.. I ' m so glad to see you that I could shout it to the whole world. and Sally gave her best friend a breath-taking hug. But doesn ' t the old home town seem pretty dull after frivolous college life? Sally Baldwin, you ' re the sweetest and the dearest girl in the world. But this place will never be dull, you know. Oh. Sally. Peggy ' s black eyes shone with happiness, it ' s the most beautiful thing in the world to be home after staying away so long. And at Thanksgiving time especially. But- what ' s the secret you hinted at over the phone? Haven ' t I been your partner in crime long enough so that I have a right to know? A party. Peg. How ' d you like one? All the old bunch, and. of course. Gift Kent for you and Marie Dennis for Terry. She ' s awfully pretty. Peg. Oil yes and it ' s going to be a masquerade. Nobodg is to know what anyone else is wearing and when we talk we ' ll try and disguise our voices. What a lark. It will he perfectly splendid but — do you have to ask that red-headed O ' Neil boy? Our hvniirtd twn Peggy Ann Pennington! What a mean thing to say. Of course, I ' ll ask him. Terry is one of the nicest boys I know. Just hccause you scrapped when you were kids is no sign that the feud lias to go on forever. It ' s just plain silly because you ' re both such likable people. Never mind, Sally. I didn ' t really mean it — I ' ll behave. I may come as Queen Elizabeth but Terrcnce O ' Neil needn ' t necessarily be Mary, Queen of Scots. Never were queerer people assembled than at the party. A devil with rather insecure horns and a long-darted tail danced with a meek little angel with drooping white wings, and to everyone ' s delight he seemed to be enjoying the experience verv much. Animals and flowers, queer figures with grotesque heads, and even a stately old king and queen were there. How everyone laughed when at last a handsome young prince in purple and gold became greatly attached to a meek little country girl with a big pink sunbonnet and sash. How I love to dance with you, she squeaked. How well he dances tonight. she said to herself. He is more fun than one would think. Simple maiden. I prithee, give me some token to remember thee by. rumbled the prince deep down in his chest and to himself he thought. Maybe there are some girls nicer, but there aren ' t any that are prettier, or more intelligent than she is. Let ' s do stunts, shouted a fat, short, grey mouse with long whiskers. Let the sunbonnet girl run around the house and sing ' In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree ' ! Yes! Yes! chorused the whole menagerie. It ' s too cold. squeaked the little country girl very timidly. If you please, I ' ll pay my forfeit. We don ' t please — but — if it must be — well — you go kiss the handsome prince and thank him for noticing you. Do it quick for it ' ll be time to unmask in a minute. The sunbonnet girl went hesitatingly up to the tall prince and held out both hands. The hour began to strike and instead of kissing him she snatched off his mask. Terry!!- -You! she gasped. Terry yanked off her mask. Peggy? Why — I thought — I thought it — The feud is over. Bunny shouted. That was enough to awaken evervon. and they bombarded each other with confetti and cheered — first for Peggy and then for Terry. Peggy — crimson flooding her face and anger in her eyes — threw down the mask she held and walked slowly out of the room and Terry turned without a word and silently left the house. His princely robes flapped about him as he walked through the night air. His Irish temper raged within him. Our hundred thru The rest of the party looked blankly at each other. The surprised devil looked at the blinking angel. They both felt foolish and a little angry. The angel had thought the devil was Terry, the devil had thought the angel was Peggy. Then the angel giggled helplessly and the devil ehuekled. Kveryone hegan to see the funny side of it and they laughed till they eried. Listen, kids. Sally tried to reason with them. Terry and I ' eg are going to feel awfully had because you ' re aeting this way. For goodness sake, calm down — they were serious enough. Didn ' t you see how they looked. ' Didn ' t we see how they looked? I ' ll never forget the expression on Peggy ' s face, when she saw who she ' d almost kissed, if I live to he a hundred, and the whole hunch went into another helpless gale of laughter. And tin- dignitied way Terry flapped out. Oh, it was worth a million dollars. chuckled Tom Brown. Will! Sally declared to Bunny Arnold just before she went to sleep, if it hadn ' t heen for Peg and Terry it would have been just a party — but, as it was— it turned out to he an episode. We ' ll just have to keep them separated on tint picnic u)i the mountain tomorrow or someone will get pushed off the trail. The next morning dawned clear and bright. The purple blue of the mountains merged into tin- cold, clear blue of the November sky. What a day. marveled Janey Bennet. Could any day be more perfect to .limb Old Scarf ace ' ? Never another day like this one. Before or after. Got the camera. Johnny, and three or four films? Here she is. Oh. yes. and here are the potatoes, apples, meat, sandwiches. el cetera, Johnny ' s good-natured voice was becoming rather annoyed. I ' m not the paekhorse for this pilgrimage. How about some of the rest of you fellows lending a hand? Hi, there. Giff- just in time. Good of you to bring Marie over in your roadster. Come on. gang- — two miles ' fore we stop and I ' m starving right this minute. Are you with me? Forward march!! Peggy waved her small crimson beret as a sign to start. May the best man eat the apples and the last one up get the cores. By the way, Jim Blake ventured while they were resting after an unusually stiff bit of climbing, when- on earth do you suppose Johnny can be? Why that ' s right — be isn ' t here. everyone chorused. S ' posc he could have fallen over a cliff or got lost or something? Johnny ' s pretty fat and something might happen to him. Let ' s yell and see if be answers. Johnny!! Johnny!! OH JOH-NN-Y!! On kundrtd four Bang-bangety-rattle-bang and Johnny canoe grinning up the trail — a sand wicll in one hand and an apple in the other — his baek piled so high with artieles ot every description that he looked like a veritable traveling general merehandist store. Why-why-you big cheat. howled Jim. Look at the grinning monkey eating up our apples and sandwiches. You just wait. Here, fellows, well take this junk ourselves. He can ' t be trusted with it. I sorta hoped you ' d feel that way about it, Johnny chuckled with a pleased little grin as he shook his tired shoulders. As I seem to have heard before — last one to the top is a piker. Come on — ' Packhorses. ' Doesn ' t it seem just like old times, Peggy, to all be scrambling up dear old ' Searface. ' Wouldn ' t you like to be kids again for a while? We ' ll always be just kids to each other — you and 1, Sally. It ' s the rest of the world that ' ll be growing up — we ' ll just pretend we ' re grown up too. Come on. old pal. hurry up. the rest have left us way behind. At last. The conquering heroes have eome. Terry threw down bis sack of potatoes and began kicking the fallen leaves off the old fireplace. Listen, Terry, Marie advised, you go climb way up to the top of that pine tree. Me? Well for—! Wily? Why? Why. my dear boy — your head will be our Mag — our signal to let the people back in the valley know we ' re here. Still — they might think a forest fire bad started. and Johnny doubled up with laughter. Oh — you — Terry ' s face crimsoned to match his hair and he promptly flung his tormentor flat on the ground and sat on him, bouncing up and down to improve on this treatment. That ' s for you and your jokes that aren ' t even funny. You going to make fun of me any more? No — no, groaned Johnny. Why, I expect if you look you can find my ill-timed mirth squashed on these roeks for ten feet around by now. Oh, come, boys — don ' t be so silly, Marie said in ber cool, even voice. I ' m hungry and Gift ' looks to be on bis last legs. Nobody knows how good baked potatoes really are till he ' s eaten them roasted in an old oven after a long hard tramp. You just give me one more sandwich and maybe a pickle and — oh, yes — anotber egg, and a cup of coffee and I ' ll die content with my head in Sally ' s lap, Peggy declared happily as she reached out her hand for one last sandwich. You eat much more Peggy Ann and. take, it from me. you ' ll be dying whether you ' re contented or not, Tom told her seriously. You know once there was an old, old man, Terry said dreamily. Long, long years ago. added Jim. One hundred five Who lived in a little hut away u| on top of this mountain — And one day lie was hunting and The edge of the cliff gave way and he — Fell over and cut his faee on a jagged rock at the bottom — And folks used to call him ' Old Searfaee ' ever aftt r — And that ' s how ' Old Searfaee ' got its name. All of them except perhaps Marie and Ciitf knew the old tale, hut it was a sort of tradition that after they ate. the story should he told as they sat about the fire. I ' m going to find ' Old Searfaee V cliff, Peggy announced with a crooked little smile, maybe 1 can get in some thinking while I ' m searching for it. Everyone sat very still after she had gone and looked into the lire. At last Cliff said, Guess I ' ll climb a little highi r and see if I can ' t get some pictures to take home with me. This certainh is great old scenery. Want to come along. Marie. 1 Darn fool. Bunny commented bitterly after they had gone. I know. Bunny-girl, just how you feel. Johnny comforted. After we ' ve lived with it so long it gets to seem like our friend instead of ' great old scenery. ' GUCSS I ' ll stretch my legs a little, Terry announced uneasily. I feel sort of restless and maybe a little solitude and reflection will do me good. The rest sat silent and content about the fire. The .silence was not tense and strained, it was rather, intimate and friendly. The tire crackled and glowed and the pines whispered above them. Something ' s the matter today — you can just feel it in the air. Tom said after a time. Yes that ' s right. Look at Terrv — he ' s so cranky you feel as though you couldn ' t say a word to him. and Johnny ' s face looked very doleful. Well, something ' s wrong with Peggy, too. She gets on your nerves. Even when she ' s perfectly still you can just feel her nerves and her mind twisting and jumping around all tin- time. You don ' t feel comfortable. Maybe it ' s that conceited Giff that ' s making the trouhh — or maybe it ' s Marie. l ' crhaps. Sally sighed Unhappily, Cliff ' s all right but he ' s too — too common- place and practical for Peggy. He ' ll never dream any dreams. Well, as far as that goes Marie isn ' t the kind of girl to make old Terry happy- She couldn ' t see heaven in a sunset or an autumn leat- -not if she tried a lifetime. If Peggy and Terry onh wouldn ' t he so dumb. I wonder if ' Old Searfaee ' really was a man and really did fall over a cliff. Peggy thought dreamily as she walked along in the crisp, cold November afternoon. She walked on for a moment and suddenly kicked a rock beside the path with all her might. I hate him— oh . ' I hate the laughing, sneering way his eyes look at me and his red hair and his smile. I hate his tallness -I h.ite . very single bit of him. On hundred til And then because the rock was a good solid one her foot began to hurt and sting from the fierce kicking so she sat down and cried. It was then that she saw it — the old crumbly cliff that Old Scarf ace had perhaps fallen over. High above on a huge boulder Terry sat thinking. The warm sunshine fell on the rock and he lay looking down below him. Suddenly a red spot caught his eye. Yes. it was moving. There it was again. Terry took up his field glasses and squinted through them. He focused them upon that distant red spot. Peggy, I ' eggy. her red tain (lulled close over her golden curls, and her red sweater covered with leaves, lay flat on the ground. Her head seemed to be over the edge of a cliff and she was looking down at something below. Little idiot. thought Terry. Doesn ' t she know if the edge of that crumbled or if she lost her balance she ' d probably break her neck? If it were one of the other girls I ' d run down and tell her that ' s a pretty dangerous business. But I ' ll be darned — she isn ' t going to get the chance to call me names or freeze me stiff with those black eyes. No .siree . ' ! But even as he looked the red figure began to crawl back a little. No. now she was going ahead again. The edge seemed to be crumbling a little, seemed to be giving way and — My God J Terry gasped. She ' s over. Peggy over! Half running, half sliding and falling he started for the cliff. She ' d be dead, of course — her face all bloody and her body all twisted. A dry. hard sob broke from his lips and he ran faster. I ' eggy — dead — while he watched it happen. How awful Sally would feel. It would almost kill her. Peggy saying she ' d die happy if she had another sandwich. And now she was dead. Poor little Peggy. Sand- wiches. Sally. Now I ' ll look over and see if — why! it isn ' t much of any cliff at all. he thought. Maylx — maybe she isn ' t — Peggy! PEGGY! PEGGY ANN ! lie shouted frantically. Holding on to trees and brush he slid down toward where a spot of red was waving. Peggy — Peggy! You all right? he gasped as he stumbled to his knees beside her. Oh. Peggy. he held her tightly for a moment. I thought you ' d be all bloody and twisted — I thought you ' d be — dead. Noiie. Just twisted my ankle. It hurts pretty bad but I think I ' ll live through it. Terry, stop trembling! Would you have cared as much as that if I had been dead? Don ' t say it — I thought it all the way. I ' ll pick an easy path back to the rest and I can carry you. Our hiiiiilrttl fft-vi ' ii I ' m awfully sorry. Terry, I ' ve been so hateful and disagreeable and now you offer to carry me back. Two tears of sbainc ran down her dusty eheeks followed by two more because her ankle hurt so inueh. Poor Peggy — does it hurt so much? You just hold on tight and I ' ll lie as careful as I know how. And Terry ' s long .-inns gathered her up very gently. Terry. L ' mhum r Sally will he glad we ' ve made up. Sally is one of the nicest girls in the world. She thinks a lot of you and me. Terry. His blue eyes looked down into Peggy ' s black ones. Is that the scar when- I hit you with the stone that time? L nihuni. I needed it. I ' m sorry. Bend your head down. Terry. Peggy brushed back a red lock and left a light kiss on the little white sear. Terry held her more closely, more carefully — because, if you ' d asked him. he ' d have said that be had the whole world in his two arms. Helen Bromley, ' 31. One hundred eight A Matter of Letters You ' re rather wonderful yourself, you know. she murmured, but we ' ve only known each other for sad) a short time. The soft lap of the lake against the shore and the wind whispering in the pin e trees were the only sounds to break the poignant silence that followed. The moon looked wisely down and smiled on the young couple wrapped in silence below. The stars set in their background of heaven-blue twinkled dreamily at each other. It was June, and June means Youth, and Love, and Happiness. Tell me ' yes, ' please, dear. he pleaded. Even if we ' ve only known each other two months, it ' s long enough for me to know that I love you— more than anything. You do care, don ' t you? Who wouldn ' t— with this sky and moon for atmosphere? But I do like you. Rog. It ' s so darn hard to decide. Tell you what I ' ll do. Give me a week— don ' t see me at all, and sometime during the week I ' ll decide and write you my answer. Will you ? All right, but I ' d be the happiest man on earth if you ' d tell me right now, Connie dearest. Guess I ' ll have to wait though. Shall we go back now? If you want to — And they were off— back to the rest of the party, where there was gayety, laughter, and music— back to the youth of which they were a part. Thursday already! Why the devil hadn ' t she written by now? She had had plenty of time to think it over. Tomorrow he ' d— Home already, sonny boy? the voice of his mother broke in. And here ' s Janet too. Father just phoned that he is on his way; SO hurry up and wash for dinner. Just a minute— any mail today? Roger asked eagerly. He looked so expect- ant that his mother could not help smiling as she answered, Why yes, there was a letter, but I do not know whom it was for. Ruddy was playing out in the yard when the postman came, and the man gave the letter to him to bring up to me on the porch, as he sometimes does. Ruddy suddenly decided the letter was for him I guess, because he scampered away with it. I called to him to bring it to inc. but he only wagged his tail and trotted away. He never did anything like that before. The phone rang then, and I came in to answer it. I thought maybe he ' d bring it to me, but he didn ' t. I didn ' t see him again until about half an hour later, and then he didn ' t have the letter with him. I ' m sure it was that letter from Mrs. Winslow saying that she could not come for the week-end. She said if anything did happen that she couldn ' t come she would write me. One hundred nine Oh. Mother, Janet broke in impatiently, I ' m sun: it was a letter that I have been expecting from Rodney Forbes asking me to the senior hall. .lust a minute. said Roger, don ' t he too sure that you ' re the only one that ever gets any mail. I have heen expecting .1 letter lor a week and now that it ' s finally arrived the dog had to go and chew it up. Perhaps he didn ' t chew it Op. He may have dropped it some place in tin- yard. said his mother gently. Let ' s have a look, cried Janet. If we don ' t rind it I ' m going to wring that dog ' neck. Janet — her mother remonstrated, hut too late, for Janet was already out in the yard, and Roger with her. whistling to the mischievous pup. Fifteen minutes of frantic search brought them both hack into the house with no results. Dinner is ready. Aren ' t you ever going to get ready for so common- place ii function? Mrs. Standish asked. Yes. Mother darling. Janet gaily called, and after that — that dear old dog of ours is going to confess his secret sin. ' Dad, did Mother tell you the tragedy? Rog Inquired as the family group was assembled at dinner. What tragedy? Mr. Standish asked. Don ' t tell me that you have had another promotion so soon. No. not business this time. Dad. Ruddy ran off with a letter for me that the postman gave him to bring u j from the walk today. Golly, you ' re so sure it ' s your letter that I know it must be mine. drawled J anet. But where is the letter? asked Mr. Standish. That ' s what we don ' t know. answered his wife. I ' ve been wondering if it was a letter from Mrs. Winslow saying that she is not coming up for the week-end. Let ' s have another look around. said Roger to Janet as they finished dinner. Rut all the teasing and coaxing they might do produced no results on Ruddv. Too bad some human beings cannot keep a secret as well as he did. Consternation reigned at the breakfast table in the morning. Oh. Mother. Janet wailed, how am I going to know whether that was from Rodney or not. and I ' m just dying to go to that dance. If you don ' t hurry. Janet dear, you ' ll be late again, and you ' ve only about two puts left for this semester. College has not taught you how to be on time yet. has it? said her mother. Yes. darling. I ' m on my way. And. Mother, if you rind the letter phone me. won ' t you. please? Yes. dear. Good-bye. Our httudr d I ' ll And all the way down to the office where he was already well on the way to success, Roger thought — Was it from her? — What should a fellow do, anyway? Sounded silly to tell a girl the dog ran away with her answer to the most important question in the world. So intensely was he thinking that the long silver roadster almost cut a traffic signal before lie realized how fast he had been going. At home Mrs. Standish was thinking — - Well, I ' m just not going to make any extra plans for the week-end for I am sure, that letter was from Mrs. Winslow. But she did make sure to bring in the mail herself that day. Friday passed somehow, and Friday night another search for the letter was made. Janet was sure that the dog had chewed the letter to bits. Mr. Standish was enjoying the situation immensely, .lust think, all this fuss over a little letter. Why I haven ' t seen a smile on your face for two nights now. he. reminded his daughter. Well. I guess you wouldn ' t smile either if you wanted to go to that dance as badly as I do. and then didn ' t know whether a darn old dog chewed up the letter or not. While over the phone Roger was saying — Connie, dearest, I couldn ' t wait any longer — I want to hear you say it yourself. And over the wire came a soft — Rog. dear heart, I was just going to call you myself- -couldn ' t be bothered with taking so much time to write a silly old li tter. It must have been your letter- it wasn ' t mine. Janet. he called as he dashed out the door. Mrs. Standish was greatly surprised to answer the door to Mrs. Winslow and her two daughters the next morning. Why. come in. she cried and in her heart she was wondering just why she had been so sure that the letter had been for her. I am so glad to have you with us again, she told them, as she wondered why she had not ordered those fresh roses for the table, and wished she had done the million and one little things she had neglected. Oh. Mother, came a call from the living room a few hours later. Here is mv letter. It just came. It must have been yours that- — and she stopped short as Grace Winslow entered the room crying. Janet, you darling, you haven ' t changed a bit. That afternoon Mr. Standish chuckled to himself as he read a letter that Ruddy brought to him. The letter was covered with dirt and paw prints, but Ruddy deposited it with a delighted bark, almost as though he knew how much worry he had caused. Mr. Standish smiled as he read: Dear Madam: No home is complete without this amazing new set of books — Doris Wooden, ' 31.

In this brief period, wt 1 feel that it has been successful. Beta Sigma originated through the efforts of a few enthusiastic students of literature, who had taken the course in advanced literature and felt that they would like more of the same material. Mr. Paul H. Hartman. instructor of Knglish and literature, was asked to lend his support. With him as a faculty advisor, the club has received much pleasure and profit. The mythical winged horse, Pegasus, is the chosen symbol of Beta Sigma. It was through the aid of Doctor Henshaw that Beta Sigma became the initials of our club — the symbols being very appropriate. To be eligible for membership one must have earned at least a B grade in general literature, and must be sufficiently interested in this subject to be willing to devote considerable time to its further study. It is the custom to choose a unit for study which will interest the majority of the group. This year the majority of the votes were for modern plays. Therefore, we purchased Representative Modern Plays by It. A. Cordell and used it as a basis for our study. This year seems to us to have been quite a busy one for Beta Sigma. First, of course, are our weekly meetings held every Wednesday for one hour. Then in our assembly programs, we let our literary talent shine forth. The first program consisted of cuttings from literature interpreted in pantomime. The second one was called Beta Sigma at Work. Three original poems, written by members of our club, were read, also .an original paper on Immortal Horses. One of the high points of the program was the presentation of a plaque to the school. The name of the winner of the CARDINAL Story Contest is to be engraved on it each year. The plaque contains space for ten names. So we close with the hope that the new members will continue to carry out the purpose for which this elub was established and uphold its customs to the best of their ability. A V Kill a Hkid.

Regardless of the reason or the game The net result we find is just the same; For there they sat together in the snow, With Charley ' s horse and sleigh still on the go. The horse just kept a-rmining with the sleigh And then an auto came along that way. The horse just made a frantic plunge and dart- — The auto caused the horse and sleigh to part. That is all the story that I heard But all of it is true — yes. every word. If more about this famous ride you ' d know. Just question Peggy Dunn or her best beau.

Out- hundred twenty-three Tin flames in the fireplace flicker, hurst into myriad colored sparks and east soft light about the room, coming back to rest on the figure curled up in tbe great armchair silhouetted against the glow. Hooks, timeworn and lovely, are scattered about in friendly profusion. The tassels of gaily Colored dance programs dangle from the edges of one, pictures peer forth from another. The figure stirs. It is a not-young-but-not-yet-old person who bends forward peering intently at the flames. At what is she looking? The book on her knee tells the story. The caption meets our eye, The Clionian Society was formed in 1872 at the Geneseo State Normal School. All, now we understond and can sec. as she does, not just flames but figures and we go with her — reminiscing. She sees a group of laughing, happy girls- —people, and more people.

Why, it ' s Open House at the Young Women ' s League- -mid what was the name of that orchestra ?- -Wilbur Edmonds Agitators, of course! What is that in the dancing blue of the driftwood flame — girls in softly colorful evening gowns- -the tinkling of glasses — toasts — and again the under- current of a pleading saxophone. The scene is the Withcrill Hotel; the event, the successful conclusion of the rushing season which brought ten new C ' lios under the colors. The logs snap again and in the sparks we see a smiling girl seemingly labeling a young man — yes, there it is — diamond-shaped with yellow lettering, which says Clio Tag Day. 1930. In turn the pictures appear and disappear in the changing light — -an informal house dance the annual alumni bridge. Then strange figures flit from log to log. They are clothed in old-fashioned primness and from the distance conies the mellow strains of Memories our assembly program. Tin figure in the chair seems smiling at something, perhaps it is at Carolyn Clarke in flaming scarlet under an umbrella-sized hat or maybe two blue and white checked figures chanting School Days .... who knows? The flames are now bright, now dim, as one by one they flicker and are gone. The pictures fade with them and another year is ashes. But the smile deepens on our watcher ' s face as she remembers the joy of that year, of the successes and of the friends, true and lasting, countless in number like the petals of the golden chrysanthemum of Clio itself.

Twenty-four girls, all anxious to be again with their sorority sisters at P. S. N. S„ greeted the new school year in September. Early in October we opened our doors at Normal Court and welcomed the entire student body at our annual Open 1 louse. Rush season with its hopes and anticipations started after our five-week examinations. The Alpha Deltas very fittingly entertained the Freshmen at Normal Court in the popular sport. .Miniature Golf. Hallowe ' en, with all its weird atmosphere, was the date of our second party which was a formal banquet held at the Cumberland Motel. Our Lucky Star party brought us twelve Freshmen who were ready and willing to take the pledge of Alpha Delta. Four weeks after Pledge the Freshmen were duly surprised to find themselves the subjects of their Alpha Delta superiors. A successful card party was given on November 12, Just before Christmas vacation a house dance was held at Normal Court. One of the jolliest events of the year was an intersorority sleigh ride after which dancing and refreshments were enjoyed at Normal Court. Memories of old-fashioned school days were brought back by our presentation of scenes from the Huckleberry Finn Schoolhouse given at the City Hall on February 2(5. Various other events helped to make this a very enjoyable and worthwhile year. Out hundred twenty-nine Active Chapters of Alpha Kappa Phi Alpha. Geneseo, 188.5 Kta Am mn a k.

How much have we contributed to make this world of ours better this year than last? Let us take a peek at our good ship Ago. We lifted anehor on September 8. Aboard ship we had some who were weather-wise, and others who were inexperi- enced. At any rate, we all .started out in shallow water trying to help the new sailors for there were many storms before we reached shore again. Marie Kinney was skipper and how wisely the Agos of ' - ' iO had chosen her. She started us off well and surely kept us to our course. Knowing the value of play, we combined it with work. Our first party was our welcome to the Freshmen as well as to the whole student body. We had them as our guests on September 18 at Open House. After this, the ship seemed to be going on smoothly through the calms. We had been out five weeks when we reached the anticipated moment. We could see land! Hush — that Monte Carlo of ours was reached! We braved the storm and came out with fourteen new members added to our crew. Our parties had been a success from the lowliness of the Bowery Party to the Formal Dinner at the Cumberland Hotel. Our financial success was also most pleasing. In the first administration we held several food sales. Under the new administration with Florence Wilson as skipper we conducted a rummage sale, a fancy sale and a card party. Then came our new leader, Virginia Whiting. That meant our initiation Captain. Initiation brought a dread into the heart of every Freshman but when it terminated, the Frosh all seemed as happy as before. Our last skipper has steered us into port. Margaret Devany has guided us with all the skillfulness of an experienced executive and we found our journey all too short. Although we arc sad to lose our Seniors from Ago House, we are saying au repair and not good-bye. May they always live in memories of Alpha Kappa Phi beneath the safety of its anchor.

Out ' hundred thirty-nint History of Delta Tau Chi The Delta Tau Chi Fraternity was formed in 1927 by Prof. Samuel Tcdd. The Fraternity was founded to show the students how they could serve their school better and also to ereate better potential teachers. As a good start for the club ' s year of activities the Rush Banquet was intro- duced at the Peru Tavern. Members near and far proved loyal to their Fraternity by the manner in which they assisted in making the evening an enjoyable, as well as a profitahle occasion. Other worthwhile parties were continued in the V. M. C. A. and in the club rooms of the Fraternity. These parties will long he remembered for the good ' feeds as well as hotly contested bridge parties with the friendly arguments which always resulted. Delta Tau Chi gladly volunteered to lend its hand and talent to the furtherance of wholesome entertainment and education during our school assembly periods. For this purpose six of our best orators were selected to debate the question. Resolved: That the F.ntranee of American Women Into Industry Has Been In the Best Interest of Society. These debaters proved themselves to be able and popular for after they presented the assembly program they were invited to appear before the Discussion Club and other organizations. Now that the year is almost ended we look upon our friendships made through Delta Tau Chi as the most sacred friendships that we have ever known in our school life. We know that these friendships will be lasting as has been proved by the brothers who have left our ranks in years gone by. Each one of us will strive to live up to the ideals which are the foundations of Delta Tau Chi and which contribute to the successful training of our teachers. Lewis I.. Smith. ' 31.

All deserve commendation for their untiring efforts Our hiiiiilriil fift y-i ' i ' jht I Am Music Servant and Master am I, servant of those dead, and master of those living. Through me spirits immortal speak the message that makes the world weep, and wonder, and worship. I tell the story of love, the story of hate, the story that saves, and the story that damns. I am the incense upon which prayers float to Heaven. I am the smoke which piles over the Held of battle where men lie dying with me on their lips. I am close to the marriage altar and when the graves open. I stand nearby. I call the wanderer home, I rescue the soul from the depths, I open the lips of lovers, and through me the dead whisper to the living. One I serve as I serve all ; and the King I made my slave as I subject his slave. I speak through the birds of the air, the insects of the field, the crash of waters on rock-ribbed shores, the sighing of winds in the trees, and I am even heard by the soul that knows me in the clatter of wheels on city streets. I know no brother, yet all men are my brothers: I am the father of the best that is in them, and they are fathers of the best that is in me; I am of them and they arc of me. For I am the Instrument of God. I AM .MUSIC One huntlvnd sixty-out Men ' s Glee Club At the opening of school last fall, an invitation was extended to all the young men of P. S, N.

Girls ' Glee Club The P. S, N. S. Girls ' Glee Club was first organized in the fall of 1925, under the direction of Lyndon R. Street, music director of the Normal School. At this time, due to the large student body, it was necessary to organize two girls ' glee chilis, to be known as the Junior and Senior Clubs. The following year, members of the Junior Club automatically became members of the Senior Club. Last year it was deemed advisable to have just one club. Over one hundred voices tried out and a membership of seventy-five was retained. This year the number has diminished to thirty-six. Competition was keen and a group of well-selected voices rehearse once a week, preparing various programs. They have given several performances, one of which was given in assembly; another one being at the occasion of the performance given by the Indian chief. Deyokah. One of their most outstanding events occurred Friday night of the National Music Week. The Girls ' Glee Club has for its officers: Director — Prof. Lyndon R. Street.. Treasurer — Marion Nichols. Accompanist — Kathleen McAloon, Secretary — Margaret Bourev. President — Elizabeth R. Jones, Librarian — Margaret Coopy. Vice-President — Patricia Shipman.

Your smile falls like lightning into my soul. With you by my side, I would defy all the storms of life. Mae Webster: Is this a proposal or a weather report? A certain enterprising poultry man has crossed his hens with parrots, to save time. He used to hunt around for the eggs. Now the hen walks up to him and says. Hank. I just laid an egg. Go get it.
