We hope that the book will show outsiders something of the work and spirit of the school. VVe ask our readers to think kindly of our work and to remember that, whatever defects it may have, it was undertaken for the honor of the school and its members. - lVe extend our grateful thanks to Miss Learoyd for her hearty sympathy in the preparation of our book. lVith her help we were enabled to undertake the work. To Mr. Whitney we owe many suggestions. lVe also appreciate the friendly interest which the other members of the faculty have shown. One of the witnesses at a coronation of a Czar in Russia described the throng of 1-heerersas most unjoyous. lIow utterly incredible this seems to us, who at much lesser functions than those attending the crowning of the head of a nation show such a tremendous amount of exhilaration. Those quiet subdued crowds in Russia have had every drop of enthusiasm, so to speak, squeezed from them by authority and hard work. Fear of an oilicial has checked any sign of fervor. In direct contrast with that unjoyous crowd think of our own people on the 4' lfourth of July. In the roar of the cheers, amid the confusion of snap-crackers, horns, and cannon we see thousands of faces lighted up in the joy of being American citizens. Une cannot help being carried along with these wild enthusiasts. America stands for enthusiasm. It is seen everywhere. liven this school of ours came from the enthusiasm ofthe people for more education. lt is enthusiasm which urges Amerie-a on to siicvcss. Why were the Russians defeated in the war with Japan? lintliusiasin was dead in those silent, subdued soldiers. ti The question may arise, ff What has all this to do with our work as teachers ? Everything is the answer. The children for whom we are to care must be lifted out of the humdrum of school drudgery. That drudgery may become a glorious work through the inspiration of enthusiasm. Under its influence the children will go out from school with a foundation for success in life, that is, with a spirit of lasting enthusiasm. The best of greetings to you, the class of '09 l May your senior year be as happy as ours has been! In looking over the past two years of our life, the greater part of which has been spent in this school, there comes a feeling of wholesome pride. This institution stands for attainment of knowledge, of power and skill, and of moral strength. We have had set before us high standards for which we have struggled and toiled. The very strug- gle has b1'oadened and enriched our natures 5 filled us with hopes for living our part in the advancement of education. As we go from the inspirations which have surrounded and guided us here, we shall hear and feel their echoes each day of our busy lives. Those echoes will help us to mould the younger generation before us into truer and more no- ble citizens and more loving fellow-creatures, even as our predecessors have tried and in most cases accomplished. It has been a line of capable men and women which has gone before us. Is it then unworthy to be glad and proud that we, too, are to be a part of it? To be a part of the line means that we are to belong always to this school. Is it not ajoyous, even thrilling pride, that comes to us as we think of that? Yes! Let us repeat it again. VVe are to be always a part of the Salem Normal School. List of Superlatives. Best eyes. Miss Learoyd. Most patient. Mr. Adams. Most sa1'castic. Mr. Cushing. Most precise. Miss Martin. Most harmless.

If I had a penny, And you hadn't any, What do you think I'd do? I'd buy a candy stick That was long and thick, And give one-half to you. J. C. 'Twas all about a little mouse. He raced and ran about the house g He put on his cap, Walked into a trap And tore quite a hole in his blouse. My brother said, f' To catch a bird Pnt salt upon its tail. So here I have a pound or more Within my little pail. But now, oh, dear! What shall I do? VVas such a thing e'er heard ? l find if I would salt its tail 1 first must catch the bird. E. L.

Johnnie found his doggie, And hugged him all the night. L. P. 8 H.F The Water-Lily Fairies. Anne had been on the lake all the afternoon gathering water-lilies. Now she was tired of them 3 so she pulled their petals and finally dropped them in her canoe. She beached her canoe and lay back, feeling rather drowsy. Gradually, the odor from the lilies seemed to become sweeter and more powerful. Anne looked at the flowers and was surprised to see a great many tiny figures moving above them. The little creatures wore gauzy garments of white and gold, their hair was also of gold color, their tiny slippers were of pale green like the inside of the petf als of lily buds, their wings were irridescent. They reminded Anne of the rainbow and of the shining of drops of water in the sunlight. As the dainty spirits walked along the edge of the canoe, their light tread sounded like the patter of a summer shower on the surface of the water or on the lily-pads. One of these small creatures left the rest and approached Anne. Her eyes were like tl1e blue of the lake in summer, but now they gleamed with passion. She demanded with an angry toss of her head: ff How dared you take our beautiful homes from the lake? Do you not see that, without our lilies, we must perish for want of shelter when the sun shines brightly in the heat of the day? You shall come with me to the queen for judgment. ff Yes, came a soft chorus like the ripple of water, ff she shall. The fairy waved her hand and a soft mist clouded them all for a moment. iVhen it passed away, Anne was in the throng of tiny people, pushed and pulled along, no larger nor stronger than they. She could not see, in the dim twilight, just where they were taking her. Soon over the eastern shore of the lake the moon appeared-at first sending a glimmer, a glancing of silver over the water, then broadening to make a beautiful shin- ing flood of light. In its entrancing pathway, just before Anne, there was revealed a marvellously beautiful scene. On a large flat lily-pad, multitudes of dainty creatures flitted about bewilderingly in a fairy dance. The water on the shores of the lake sounded a musical murmur and the leaves of the trees sighed softly. The lily-spirits swayed and floated rhythmically to and fro, in time to the music of the waves and the trees. On the hair of each dancer, a large single diamond dew-drop shone in the moon- light. The fairies smiled, and gaily bowed and glided about in the silvery light. Sev- eral were gently swinging on ropes of cobweb hung from tall reeds and rushes. The rays of light seemed brightest in the center of the pad. Here was the throne of the queen. Under her feet was a carpet made from the gold at the heart of many lilies. She sat upon a throne of delicate pink and white, blended like the tender flush at the tip of a lily petal. In fact, the throne was itself a velvety petal. The queen wore a crown of many sparkling dewdrops in a setting of glistening gold. As Anne and the fairies advanced, there was a sudden hush and the dancers stopped. A way of approach to the queen was quickly made. Anne drew near and 9 bowed low before the queen. Her little captor then angrily told the queen the wrongs Anne had inflicted upon her and her friends. HO queen most loved! what will become of us now? We no longer have any homes since this mortal has stolen ours and ruined them forever. 'f Nay, queen, replied Anne eagerly, ff I will return them all, each one. I did not know the harm I was doing these dear people. I'll give them back their lilies. ff No, my child, answered the queen gently, ff you cannot make whole what you so thoughtlessly and so carelessly injured. The pure white homes a1'e already ruined beyond all hope. lVhat can you do ? Remorsefully, Anne hung her head and said nothing. Slowly, tears of sorrow and pity for the homeless fairies welled up in her eyes and overflowed. The queen now spoke again : 4' Those tears, dear child, are the salvation of my poor fairies. They are tears of true eontrition and sorrow. They will nourish the hearts of new lilies and make them grow to large and beautiful homes for those who are now homeless. But after you have returned home, remember that whenever you destroy a lovely lily you may be robbing some beautiful sprite of her shelter. Do not forget. She waved her hand lightly, and Anne felt herself slipping, slipping. She put out her hand and sat up-to find herself grasping the sides of the canoe. .The sun was just setting and it was time to go home. She took up her poor, withered, mutilated lilies and dropped them gently in the water. Then she started homeward through the twilight shadows. MILDRED FISHER.

O O, ,Ml gb I f'-x 10 Greeting. It is with great pleasure that we publish this greeting to our class from one of the most highly respected and dearly beloved teachers of this school. To the class of 1908:- A word of greeting and congratulation. Your period of systematic instruction is almost ended. The two years which, at their beginning, stretched away so far in the future, have passed all too quickly. The things you were going to do during that time are many of them, no doubt, still unaccomplished. The weight of wisdom with which you intended to freight your minds against the demands of school room emergencies seems too slight to be measured. You look back over the months spent in the imme- diate preparation for teaching and try to realize what you have accomplished. You look forward with some misgivings to the work which awaits you and wonder what the outcome will be. But your professional fitness can not be measured in the terms of the physicist, though certain figures may be significant. Knowledge of subject matter is undeniably essential and this you have in, at least, a fair degree. If not, the system of public instruction, not you, is to blame. Important as the familiarity with facts may be there are other things which you need for success and these the Normal School, I am su1'e, has helped to develop. They are a professional insight, a spirit of conscien- tious effort and an enthusiastic attitude towards your chosen calling. You will undoubtedly be told upon your graduation day-I have heard it almost every year since my connection with the school-that you are entering upon the occu- pation of teaching at a most opportune time. Commonplace though this saying may be, it is nevertheless true, and there is more 1'eason for asserting it today than ever. This means in the near future more opportunity for the teacher and greater recognition so- cially and financially. But what you are interested in most deeply is the chance for immediate and desirable employment. You are not concerned very much with what the profession may offer ten years from now. Of course, you are looking forward to teaching as your life work. But with the average length of service not more than three years, what becomes of all the teachers? We know a good many who have taught fifteen, twenty, twenty-five and even thirty years. ln fact, it seems as if most of those now in the schools had served longer than the average period. There must be a very large number who, after one year of teaching or possibly two, are persuaded to take up some other calling. Now this is not because of lack of success or untitness for the work. There is some other reason. The professional training of teachers is an excellent preparation for something besides the schoolroom. No wonder the graduating classes of all the normal schools in the State do not furnish teachers enough to till the vacancies. While you have been pegging away at your studies 1, too, have been working hard. The year to me has been one of great opportunity and constant application. At times I have become so much absorbed that the Normal School seemed far away. Oc- casionally sounds from Salem reached me and the chance meeting in Cambridge or 11 Boston of one of your number served to impress the fact that I was not far from home. Sometimes I have asked about what was going on in the geography class and have also inquired about the doings of the present juniors, but I have not heard of anyone re- peating the leap for life from the top of the gravel hill. On the whole I know little about the Salem Normal School this yearg I have become quite absorbed for the time being in the university study of educational problems. To come back to one's college after the absence of a dozen years is to find lots of changes. Think what your own experience may be in returning to the Normal School in 1920. Since my undergraduate days at Harvard many new buildings have been erected, the complexion of the faculty has changed somewhat, the standard of require- ments has been raised, the athletic games have moved across the Charles River and John the Orangeman is no more. But the President of the University is the same grand figureg the institution stands as firmly as ever for the motto upon its shield, H Veritas, and the Harvard spirit with the growth in the number of students has in- creased in strength and loyalty. To feel oneself occupying even an humble place in this great university with its wealth of associations, its infinite opportunities for 1'e- search and its faculty of distinguished men is indeed stimulating and inspiring. The experience of this year has given me once more the pupil's point of view. N o instructor ought ever to allow himself to forget that such an outlook exists and l am not willing to admit that I have erred seriously in this respect. But after a term of years behind the teacher's desk one's ideas of how things look from the other side be- come somewhat vague. Although most of my work this year has been individual research in the library, I have found myself associated at times with students who might easily find a place in a normal school classroom. To touch elbows with them in a common work, to observe their impressions regarding the courses of instruction and to note their spirit and attitude towards things in general is, especially to the teacher of teachers, illuminating and suggestive. My word of greeting must now become one of parting. This is not so easy. In September when I gave up your class I tried to do so without formality. Some of my colleagues even did not know that l had gone. I left the goodbys until another time. Suppose we do so now. Sincerely, Wn.1.1AM C. Moons. Her Fiftieth Composition.

If your honors please, I am able, by means of a secret charm, to draw after me all creatures that creep, swim, fly, or run. I am called the Pied Piper. With my magic pipe I have freed many countries from pests. For a thousand guilders I will rid you of all these rats. What do you say? Mayor : That is too small a price for such a task. Rid us of the rats, and we will make you a present of fifty thousand guilde1's. Pied Piper fbowing lowj : Honored gentlemen, I accept the task which you have set for me. Although poor in appearance, I am honest. I will keep the bargain with you, even as I expect you to keep it with me. Curtain. ACT II. SCENE I. Street Scene-Town Hall in the distance.

Grief-stricken cries from the parents. In a few min- utes Piper enters again, playing his pipe, and followed by children, whom he leads across the market place. Sounds of sweet singing and the glad voices of children die away. Men and women stand spell-bound. ELsPETH C. SAUNDERS. MILDRED A.

GRADUATING A Modern Fairy Tale. ffldaptedfrom the meager notes taken in the reading classfj A heavy, damp fog had rolled in from the sea, enveloping the town in its gray darkness. Night closed in without a moon. As we walked or rather groped our way along, occasionally the dim rays from a street lamp straggled through the mist and re- vealed the way for a few steps before us. Then all was darkness again. Berne on the chilly night wind came the dreary, sullen roar of the breakers as they dashed on the near-by shore. We shivered, drew our coats closely about us and hastened on. Gradually the mist in front of us seemed to be illuminated with a weird light which, as we advanced, grew more and more intense. Suddenly we found ourselves before a huge archway resplendent with brilliant lights which formed, over the entrance, tl1e signiicant words, Quo Vadisf' Impelled by some unseen force, we drew nearer. At once the portal sprang open. We entered, and the great gate clanged behind. Before us stretched a broad panorama of strange buildings and towers. Peculiar sights and sounds greeted our bewildered senses. We hurried forward and in a moment would have entered the wonderful city. But, alas! we were startled and stopped by the sharp tones of a familiar voice calling us by name. There, craning her neck through the small aperture of an office window, was our old classmate, Marguerite Kelley. After we had answered numerous questions in regard to our ancestors, their birth, life. religion, habits, etc., and our own public and private affairs, she was evidently satisfied and gave us a passport into the Mystical City. We had ventured forward only a few steps when someone brushed us rudely aside, shouting, ff Get out of my Way! I'm running for the 7.167 When we recov- ered our equilibrium, we saw Dezzie rushing along, hair loose, belt in hand, shoes un- buttoned, and coat flying. ff We might have known? We followed closely behind and caught up just in time to see her throw herself and belongings into an airship. Evidently someone else besides ourselves had arrived too late. Standing on the land- ing, with her arms outstretched and her eyes gazing upward in a most beseeching man- ner, was Ethel Crocker. ff Why, Crocky, what can be the matter? we volunteered sympathetically. In answer, she pointed despairingly to the slowly receding airship. f' Can it be that he has taken to the air? I asked. Why, sure enough, there he is at the gea1'. Poor Chapman l Uncertain as to what would happen next, but prepared for the worst, we started on again. As we turned a corner, we were confronted by someone who extended to- ward us a small collection box bearing the inscription, 4' Foreign Missionsf, Thought- lessly dropping in one small coin, we continued on our way. Forced to glance back by hearing our names spoken, whom should we see following us but Millie Isaac with her little box. 4' You might at least have recognized me, she said. Apologizing for our oversight, we stopped to inquire what was to become of the small coin we had sac- rificed. ff Oh, she replied, this money is to be sent to Sister Alley, who is doing noble missionary work in the wilds of Africa. At once interested, we loosened our purse strings and graciously filled the box. At this point our interview was out short 21 by the appearance of Abbie Croscup, fussing and fuming as usual. ff Millie, whatever shall I write in this thesis on the geographical significance of streets? I'm sure I don't know, and it must go in to the editor by Tuesday. Assuring Abbie that we hoped her thesis would get in all right, we thought it best to 4' get out. We had not gone far when our attention was attracted by a large sign, LOCKE THEATRE. In the hope of escaping for a few moments from the strange encounters we had experienced, we entered the theatre. Just inside the door we met Helen who cordially greeted us. She informed us that she was the proprietor and at once signed two com- plimentaries which admitted us. We offered them to the lady in uniform who ex- claimed, 4' Complimentaries, row 683, class F, tier I, slot 2fbj. H She must be a most orderly and particular individualf' I said. ff Does she remind you of anyone? asked my companion. VVhy, yes, Mildred Wetmore was always just like that. As we took a second glance, great was our astonishment to find that it really was she. Mil- dred was so busy that we thought it unwise to trouble her, so we went directly to our seats in the orchestra. The house filled rapidly until only one seat remained vacant. Our curiosity was excited, for it was the seat just beside us. The first announce- ment appeared. Imagine our surprise when we read, The Dancing Wonder, Mme. De Carleton. The curtain rose. Then for a few moments, transported with delight, we followed the maddening whirl of the dancer as she flitted over the stage and finally disappeared. As the curtain dropped, Miss Locke mounted the stage and made the following announcement, 'f I take pleasure in presenting Marion Remon, the great- est, funniest comedian of the day. This is positively her last appearance in public, as she intends to retire immediately into private life so that she may have more time for -sleep. Amid tremendous applause the curtain rose. As we turned to see how heartily the rest of the house was applauding, we saw a figure strolling, with calm, serene face, leisurely in manner, down the aisle. She was the very counterpart of Innocence. She seated herself beside us. My companion nudged my elbow and whispered, ff That's Florence Davidson. lVe learned from her that she had inherited a large fortune and was therefore spending her days in the enjoyment of life. After the performance was over we left the heiress to saunter out at her leisure, while we made haste to escape from the crowd into the street. For a few moments we walked along in silence, when all at once we heard the drone of a bagpipe and who should pass hy hut Annie McCabe, doing her old stunt, the barn-dance. We watched her until.she had disappeared from sight and then continued our journey. From one side of the street a little path led across a stretch of meadow land. The cool, green grass and shady trees looked so inviting that we decided to leave the main thoronglifaro and follow the footpath. We had not gone far when in the distance, be- hind a clump of trees, we saw two tigures wandering along together. They seemed to have their eyes fastened on the ground and each was carrying a huge basket on her arm. There was something ahout them which was strikingly familiar, although we 1-onld not see their faces. As we came closer to them, however, we discovered that they 22 were 44 the inseparablesf' Rosalind and Joyce. Every few moments one of them would stoop, pick up something from the ground and put it in the basket. 44 What are you girls doing? I asked. My question startled them, for they had not noticed our ap- proach. A broad smile overspread Rosalind's face, but before she had time to answer, Joyce, peering over her glasses, asked, 44 What's that? O, yes, we're collecting speci- mens g we're assistants in the zoological and botanical department at the Salem Normal School now. We sat down together on the grass for a few moments to indulge in reminiscence. Suddenly Joyce exclaimed, '4 Say, girls, have you heard about Marion Hamilton? She has a first grade down in Skihuble, Maine. You know Mary Dowl- ing is the principal of the largest school down there and through her help Marion has, I guess, secured a permanent position. 44 Marion in Skihuble! That's pretty good! But it's not at all strange to have May come to her aid, for May always was Marion's last resource when they were at Normal. Good-by, girls! We must be off for it is already getting late. So glad to have met you! As we sauntered along we came to a little white cottage at the end of the path, called the 44 Manchester. In front of it was a delightful little pool of water. Around the edge, sown eight inches apart in rows in the clayey soil which evidently had a large capacity for holding water, were hundreds of minute clam shells. There in the center of the beach thus formed, with sea-shore pail and shovel, was a forlorn figure. 44 Why, Theresa, what are you doing here? Are you married yet? 'l Toss- ing her head, she replied indignantly in her old-time phrase, 44H'm, I could be if I wanted toll Since she seemed to have abundant leisure, we stopped to inquire about some of our old friends. 44 Do you know what Fannie YVelch is doing now ? 44 Fan- nie Welch? H7IH! The last I knew of her she was at the head of the lately estab- lished monotone society, furthering that new brand of tone that she demonstrated so dramatically in the history class in Normal. Don't you remember ? 44 Oh, yes l we sang in chorus. 44 Say, girls, have you heard the latest love song? No? Why! Elizabeth Merrill composed it. It goes like this, 44 Carroll, O my Carroll. We should have liked to hear the rest, but just then we were attracted by the shrill whistle of a passing freight train. A crowd seemed to be gathering along the track, so from 44 in- stinct and 44 by reflex action, we hurried to join them. Vigorously waving a red flag on the top of the rear car stood Lydia Anderson. Now what do you think of that? When Lydia caught sight of us she Hourished her flag in the air and shouted: 44Hi ! The train passed on and we followed the crowd up the busy street. Evidently they were all going to the same place, for they walked on in the same direction and soon turned in at the entrance to a large brick building. VVe followed. Just inside the door there was a huge poster which read: Lecture on Subjective Spiritualism by Miss Juliette Ryan, Ph. D., D. D., S. B. Since We were not in a philosophical frame of mind, we decided not to enter but to wait until the lecturer should pass by. We were rewarded in a few moments, for Juliette, heavily laden with degrees, came tripping sedately along. Close at her heels 23 came the ff modern Boswell, Melissa Chase. Every few moments the latter drew from her handbag a small book and jotted down notes or observations. All signs seemed to indicate that a biography of J. Ryan would soon appear. Om' curiosity now satisfied, we passed on up the street. A few blocks away we stopped to gaze in a window in which were exhibited some excellent specimens of wood carving. While so engaged, we heard someone tap on the window from inside. We looked up and there was Mil- dred Merrill. We could hardly believe our eyes until we looked up at the sign above the window and read: PERCY-LIERRILL Co. As Mildred was evidently busy we walked on until we came to the Court House. Gathered in front of it were a great many highly excited young men. From their con- versation we learned that there was a very sensational case going on. We entered. The lawyer was reading the verdict: Miss Rand, the court has found you guilty in the first degree of breach of promise against the plaintiff. Since this is the third offence of this nature, the court orders that you refrain from going to Exeter for six years. 'fThe same old story, we said, and continued our journey. Farther on we met Lillie Phillips, who at once asked us if we intended to go up to the Athletic Club. ff Why, what is coming off up there? we asked. ff Don't you know that Addie Bucksey and Ethel Rees are going to have a trial of strength? I guess it's begun already. Welll be late. Accordingly we all hastened toward the Athletic Club. On the way Lillie informed us that Louise Hill had become famous as director of a village choral society in Skowhegan. When we arrived, the combatants looked like one confused, wriggling mass in the center of the floor. One glance was enough, for we had seen the same performance on a smaller scale many times before. We made our exit. VVe asked Lillie to spend the afternoon with us but she declined. She is president of a large woman's college now and had to address a meeting of the professors g so we went on our way alone. It was not long before we were stopped by Alice Haiusworth. f' Hello, girls, in a hurry 3 Colne on and hear Ethel Grady speak? At first we did not know where we were going, but Alice succeeded between breaths in telling us that she was running lithel's campaign for the presidency. Her platfonn was VVo1nan's Rights. By this time we had arrived in the midst of a large mob. Mounted on a small stulnp, frantically waving her hands, was Ethel, delivering the following words with great vehemenceg H Woman is man's equal, but is she oceupin' her true 'Speer' ? Alas, nel lVe are de- prived of the ballot, we 'ain't ' allowed to make stump speeches or take part in politics. Is it right? How many men vote who know what they are voting for? I demand the ballot. I want to assume the ' speer ' which ' nachur ' fitted me for equally with men, but from which masculine jealousy has thus far excluded me. O my sisters! this is a question upon which I have cogitated long and vigorously. Wo walked around to the rear and there seated directly behind the speaker was Amy Ramsflell, taking notes as usual in a ponderous volume. She is reporter for the -- Ilingville Bugle. Beside her lay the latest copy of the paper. We took it up to read the news of the day. On the front page, written in glaring headlines, was the following announcemeut:-- 24 YEAR 1923. All are invited to see the last performance in vaudeville of the champion gigglers and gymnasts, Agnasia Morania and J ulissima Walshazza. Their costumes are won- derful and of the most beautiful tints and shades of lemon. 44 Listen to what it says here, said I. 44 Louise Durkee, Hairdressing Parlours. Specialty: Bows matched to eyes. 44 And what's this? l' 44A NARROW ESCAPEK' '4As automobile no. 68103496 passed through Bingville two weeks ago, Florence Musso, standing on a hill ten miles distant, barely escaped a fatal injury. It is feared the shock will result in nervous derangementf, Florence always was nervous. Just then Verna happened along, holding a manuscript in her hand. 44 Are you taking notes, too, Verna? 44 Ohl no, she said, 44 I'm writing a thesis for admission to Dartmouth on 4 The Ideo-fantasmagorical Survey of the Enervating Effects of Topo- graphical Conditions on Anthropologyf Isn't it queer so few of our girls are teach- ing? The only ones I know of are Miss Field and Miss Ethel Batchelderf, 44 Well, where are they? we asked. 44 Miss Field is teaching in her home town and, as far as I know, has been very successful. Ethel Batchelder is getting quite a large salary, but she is putting it in the bank for her brother who wishes to go through college. 44 Have you heard anything of Mid' Fisher, Verna. 44 Why, I had a letter from Mid' two weeks ago. Here it is in my pocket: Dear Verna :-This is the simple life for me. From morn till eve I sit on the stony pebbles and watch the cod dry on the beach as the balmy winds of the southeast trades sweep over the Cape.--- Mid. By this time the crowd had begun to scatter, and thanking Verna for the informa- tion received, we left her. We walked on until we came to a large square which re- sembled Copley Square, Boston. Entering the first large building, we found ourselves in the Museum of Fine Arts. We remained only long enough to learn that Ethel Smith had undertaken the laborious task of cataloguing all specimens of marble in the Museum. She advised us to visit the large Medical School and Conservatory before leaving the square. We went first to the Conservatory. We noticed that the windows were profusely decorated with Wandering Jew. The strangeness of the scene was accounted for when we found that Irene Fitzgerald was the owner. 44 Why, Irene, we asked, 44 don't you raise anything but Wandering Jew? 44 Y-e-s, but my hobby is Wandering Jew slips. Guess whom I saw the other day, girls? Eleanor O'Brien! And w-h-a-t do you suppose she was doing? She is an agent for the 44 F1'ee Lunch Concern and spends her time tasting samples in all the large stores scattered over the country. What she can't use herself she takes home to Sybil White, who keeps house for her. 44 Do you know anything of Bessie Rea ? 44 Er-r, she has charge of Davisis ice cream parlours in the village of Chestervillef' We then started for the Medical School. As we crossed the square we noticed Olga Beloff standing before a letter box with several hundred letters. A passing glance at the addresses as she dropped the letters into the box, showed us that all the colleges in the country were well represented. We did not stop to speak but passed on into the school. As we passed the oiiice, we noticed a nurse in uniform in 25 consultation with a doctor. She bore a striking resemblance to Ethel Dalrymple. We intended to hurry quickly through the building, but we were forced to stop and speak a few words to Marion Brennan who sat in a room studying a diagram based on a Pedagogical Analysis of floating ribs. Marion told us that Helen Bassett and Elizabeth Batehelder have gone to Argentina to study soils. We left Marion to her study and departed. It was not long before we ran into Kitty Reynolds, in her usual passive frame of mind. She is still waiting for ff something to turn up. Her old friend, Mary Cohane-so she said-is head buyer in a small country store. She is noted for getting things at the lowest possible price. ff Oh, girls, I had my picture taken the other day, and in the studio I met Miss Dinan. She was posing as an artist's model. She told me that Sigrid Bjorklund is organist in a large church in Boston. Kitty walked so leisurely that we could not waitg so we went on ahead into the residential section of the city. Standing on the steps before the door of a large house and ringing the bell with all her might, was Gladys Houghton. In her hand she held a large satehel which bore the inscription, Pearce's Soap? Evidently George has gone into the soap business ! Farther on we came to a low building. A weather-beaten, wooden sign swung in front of the doorway. It read: ft Gossip Club. Opinions freely given. A bent figure, heavily burdened with a large portfolio from which papers were sticking out in all directions, was passing up the steps. Around her waist was a broad rainbow sash with the words, ff Pres. Elsie, printed on it in gilded letters. We watched until she disappeared in the doorway and then continued. By this time we had passed through the different phases of city life and had reached the rural district. We stopped to rest after our strenuous day on the steps of a small cottage. From the graceful curve of the knees of a person who stood in the doorway, we were able to recognize Harriet Marshall. She was thoughtfully reading a novel entitled, ff Married Life: Before and After, written by the celebrated novelist, Katherine Barrett. Thoroughly tired of these thrilling experiences, we implored Hattie to tell us the way out of the city. That's easy, she responded. She handed us a graphical rep- resentation of her directions, saying, ff If you follow directions explicitly you will ar- rive over a small hole, Take first position forward with inside foot, one stride jump, and await developments. Once more we stood in the fog and the darkness, and wearied and tired, we has- tened on our homeward way without further adventures. The Dream. The night before graduation, I was lying awake thinking of my last two years, when suddenly I seemed to find myself in a strange yet familiar place. It was in a large hall, and a man was announcing through a megaphone that there was a unique design now on exhibition in the hall. At this point the chief designer came forward and said that after much serious thought and study, he was able to present, as the re- sull of his stupendous undertaking, a design based on firm and ancient principles rather than on unstable modern devices. It was his opinion, he said, that at last America might boast an art of it own. 26 Great crowds thronged about the exhibit. One group which stood directly in front of me, showed by the intellectual bearing of its members that it was fully capable of judging the merits and demerits of the design. I could easily overhear their re- marks, and the Hrst one which broke the silence was,- 44 I perceive that at last we have subjected to our inspection a design constructed on a purely geometric basis. It is all the more remarkable because of its perfect sym- metryf' 44 All right, came another voice, 44 but I should make it a question of content rather than of formfl 44 Why of all things ll' said a surprised voice, 44 they evidently have not considered the point of view. 44 In my opinion, broke in the man with an earnest tone, 44 the significant units are the ones to be observed and compared. 44 That is true, observed a person of erect bearing, 44 but what an excellent teach- ing device it would make. 44 Yet I notice, drawled another, 44 that it has the repose of the East. In the West we would give it an air of activity. 44 Looking at it from a psychological standpoint, said a trim young woman, 44I perceive that it lacks that 4 soul' which is so vital to a truly artistic productionfl 44 If I had my way, remarked a. perfectly contented individual, 44 I would plane it down some. 44 Indeed so l came in supereilious tones, 44 I see there is a deal of reconstruction necessary in order to arrange to a nicety the contour of the design in direct relation to the topography of its background. 44 Yes, but if you change the 4 contour , if that's what you call it, you'll destroy its ryth1n, broke in a cheery voice, 44I can't make you see it, you've got to feel it. 44 Hrn, hm I was the brisk remark of one of the group bearing a copy of H- and S- under her arm, 44 I think the curves ought to be straightened out. It might then be neaterf' 44 For my part,'l said a decisive voice, 44 I think it's simply atrocious. The units are just jlung together. Its enough to give anyone the nightmare. I wouldn't have that design in my house for a thousand dollars .' What do you think about it ? he asked his neighbor. 44 Oh l was the laughing reply, 44 I never criticise outside ,Q business hours. 'l ,,,vHl'f?ll . . . , 'll'v l'- 44 Let the poor design alone, came a soothing voice, 44 come 55: ' .,' with me while I serve you with tea. ms nl The group departed, and there exposed to my view was the strange design. ,. , .91 gn 44 A creature not too bright and good lol For human nature's daily food. ff. I ly V' E' A TX PIC KLIBQ HOC L TEAVHIER 27 M T The Glee Club sang so very high, They soon did touch the sky. One note they held so very long, That even Archibald's breath did fail. The club were sure they'd done something wrong, So they one by one slid down the scale. Musical Notes. The charm of music and the subtle influence which it wields over life, moulding, developing and shaping character, is as potent today as ever it has been in the past. Without music, life would lose much of its brightness and, in time, would become dwarfed and narrowed. lVith a feeling of the truth of this fact in mind and a sense of the need of more attention to the musical side of our school life, the Salem Normal Glee Club was organized in the fall of 1906, in the Junior year of our class. Of the twenty-four girls who made up the Glee Club, eighteen were Juniors. Under Mr. Arehihald's efficient and inspiring leadership, the Tuesday afternoon rehearsals grew to ha- a source of great pleasure as well as of musical cultivation to the girls. At his sug- gestion the c-lub planned a concert, the proceeds of which were to go toward the pur- chase ofa pianola for the school. The concert was given in February before a large audience whose interest and satisfaction in the program rendered was very evident. So highly thought of was the music furnished by the Glee Club that it was asked to sing at the Seventeenth Triennial Convention of the Salem Normal Association, held in the school building in June. Past graduates were delighted with this addition to the school life and many expressed their appreciation of its work. 28 The work of this year was begun with enthusiasm and without a shadow of a doubt as to its success. The present members of the Glee Club are as follows : first soprano : Eleanor Desmond, Louise Hill, Abbie Croscup, Elspeth Saunders, Ethel Rees, Rosalind Corbin, Margaret Better, second soprano: Addie Bucksey, Florence David- son, Winifred Poor, Alice Fernald, Edna McKenzie, Marion Remon 3 first alto : Mildred Fisher, Elizabeth Batchelder, Helen Bassett, Marion Brennan, Marion Hamilton, Angel- ica Gamboag second alto: Evelyn Alley, Olga Beloff, Gladys Houghton, Bertha Deane, Harriet Robertson, Katherine Flagg. The present treasurer of the club is Alice F ernald. Another concert was given in February and was considered as great a success as that of the year before. The help which this organization has been in raising the stan- dard of the school from a musical standpoint cannot be easily ascertained, but it has certainly been great. As a school and as individuals we thank the director, Mr. Arche ibald, the pianist, Miss James, and the girls of the Glee Club for the valuable service they have rendered the school by the use of their time and their talent. Another source of musical culture and enjoyment has been the musical programs to which the first hour every Wednesday morning, for at least half of the year, has been devoted. In the two years of our course we have listened to many interesting and va- ried programs furnished with one or two exceptions by talent found in the student body. Thus opportunity has been afforded of hearing some of the compositions of Handel, Chopin, Schumann, Wagne1', Bach, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Beethoven, Tchaischowsky, Rubenstein and a few other composers. Again would -we thank the committees who have had these musical mornings in charge and all those who have in any wise contributed to their success. To Chapman. A little boy named Chapman Stole into a school one day, The school was S. N. S., I'm told, And the girls were all at play. One little girl espied him, And calling the others away, She said, H There's a boy in school, girls, And we'll see what he has to say. So into the schoolhouse they scampered, These girls so merry and gay, And they carried him off to the meadows And buried him deep in the hay. Although the girls were many, And he was only one, He never lost his courage, And to-day the victory's Won. 29 Athletics. VVe might divide the athletics of our school into three groups: gymnastics, bas- ketball, tennis. It is necessary to state, however, that the amount of time, energy, and interest given to them is by no means equal. Gymnastics. Since this form of exercise receives most attention, let us consider it first. We have a well-equipped gymnasium. It is by no means irreproaehable, but perhaps the scramble for a locker and especially for one with a basin, only adds to the zeal and interest. Under our excellent instructors we can all see improvement in many ways, gained from our drills and exercises for two hours a week. The girls delight in doing the 'fstunts in evidence in the gymnasium almost any day and in spite of the complaints of Oh,dear! l've got to take 'gym' today, each one feels the good she is getting from it and deep down in her heart is glad when gym', day comes. The aesthetic dancing, which has been taught this year in addition to the floor and apparatus work, is much enjoyed by the girls and makes a very pretty and pleasing feature of gymnastics.

In the spring of 1907, the students awoke to the fact that a good tennis court was going to waste beneath their very noses. Consequently, a meeting was held and an assof-i:i.l.ion formed with Marion IC. Remon as manager, Avis Carleton, assistant, and liva lhwlstreet., treasurer. At a fee of thirty-five cents, about thirty joined, and having lblll'4Illil.Ht'fl rackets, halls, net, tape, eta-., the association started to have some very en- joyable ganna-s. ln the fall, tennis was again resumed. This spring plans are being made to put the ground in much better shape and to have two courts instead of one. 30 ..., AC o v - , .I iv I 'I ,.F gn- 5-0 ' A- .311- 4.,,. H, 3, . ' . K:-'....

Besides the two courts, it is thought that tournaments would be of interest. It is thought now that the association will offer a cup to the winner of the tournaments. The prospects for tennis for 1908 look very bright and it seems now as if the forming of the associa- tion had been a step well taken. Much thanks is due to Mr. Cushing for the interest he has taken, and the help he has given. Basketball. The teams have been formed this year as usual and there has been much spirited playing. Practice has taken place in the gymasium every Saturday afternoon under the direction of Miss Warren. For the last few games the scores have been very nearly even, and the enthusiasm has run high. We hope that basketball will be as enjoyable next year as it has this year. Members of Senior Team. Goal Guard M. Murray A. Croscup E. Saunders QCapt.j A. Bucksey E. Rees M. Kelley Center M. Remon E.

Senior I walks into Lit. five minutes late, but it doesn't seem to disturb the teacher any. She keeps on playing checkers with the taken and the return slips. Have a Guess! She xises at seven, dresses, and leaves her home for the station at seven-fifteen. After a tive-minute walk, or to be more accurate a five-minute fly, she arrives in time to see the seven-sixteen train about to pull out of the station. With wild wavings of her arms, accompanied by cries of, ff Oh, wait for me-do, Horace, you've got to hold that train Qit is a branch linej, she rushes down the track and falls aboard. The train moves on, and she has a chance to catch her breath and patch herself together. As she nears Lynn, she gets nervous-'f Do you s'pose we're late? We must get that main line today-I haven't done a thing yet- Just then she sees the main line train go flashing hy. She jumps to her feet, followed by the other girls, and they rush to the platform. The train slows up to wait for the main line to leave the station. The girls jump. As they are at the head of Lynn station, the train begins to move out. The girls rush on- she rushes too-jabbering and dodging. One girl gets the train-another-she is the third. QThe otbeis, tired out by laughing at her, have stoppedj. The two girls on the now fast moving train wave goodbye to her. With one last desperate spurt, she waves her arms at an approaching man, shouting, ff Look outl 1'm running!

We were seated in recitation, Each one busy with the thought Of the cause of the relation Between man and vacant lot.

On a plot of land she visioned- Just a cottage built for two- With her neighbor she was planning, What the next year she would do.
