About 'Live weeks ago a course of ten lessons in cooking was offered to the seniors. The number of applicants was large. The apparatus available was small and only eighteen of the young ladies could be admitted. As Mr. Pitman expressed it, the eighteen who would probably have need the did not give the circumstancesj of such knowledge were selected. We hope he has made no mistake in his choice. As the school grows older, we feel that there is less distinction between the Senior and Junior classes. We hope, however, that our successors will do even more than we have been able to accomplish in eliminating class distinction. Some of the best means are the friendly meetings in the gymnasium, and the receptions. The establishment of a dormi- tory would be helpful in bringing about close relationship between the classes. May Salem Normal School soon have one! The Salem Normal School has been selected by the Board of Education as one of the normal schools in which an advanced course for those specializing in upper grade Work shall be established. Four of the former graduates of the school have taken advantage of the course this year, and we hope that many of the class of 1914 will return to profit by the fine courses offered. There seems to be a growing demand for specialists in upper grade Work, particularly since the State Board favors having the two years' course 'fit students only for the 'first six grades. There is thus an opening left for those specially fitted for the seventh and eighth grades. Think it over-Seniors.

Pre- vious to that time, various classes have published one, some of the earlier ones being known as ':The New Mosaic , and others simply as 4'The Class Book? We have selected the title Normalites because we hope that the contents of this book and the memories which it will recall will linger as beacon lights focusing their rays on '4Dear Old Salem Normal. The class of 1914 will be the one hundredth class to graduate from the Salem Normal School. During the period of its existence, the school has seen many changes. When first established, she was wont to send forth her daughters Cno sonsj, diploma in hand, twice a year, in January and also in J une. The last class to graduate in winter was the class of January, 1897. The Salem Normal School was open only to girls in the beginning, but in 1897 she threw' open her doors to the men of New England. A great many young men have accepted the opportunity and she is now proud of both sons and daughters. Among the changes, the most noticeable is the new plan for the training in teaching. According to this plan, each student has charge of a small class in a room by herself. The students are under the supervision of regular teachers who divide their time among these small classes. All the seniors who have worked under the new plan feel that they have gained a great deal. The opportunities afforded the student teachers are excellent. They are given a chance to meet the problems of the profession on a small scale and cope with them. The power to carry along the work of the class alone, gained under the new plan, will be invaluable when the student teachers are no longer students. 5
