There have been changes in the educational world, as well as in business. Leaders in education are putting before us new ideals and offering new responsibili- ties. They tell us to socialize the activities of the schoolg that is, they advise us to make a close connection between the child's daily life outside of the schoolrooni and playground, to lead the children to work and play in groups so that they may learn the spirit of co-operation in accomplishing an end which is for the good of the whole. We have received the inspiration, and we a1'e now eager to begin the work. We have all thought of the things we shall accomplish when we have a school of our own. It is only natural that we should be anxious to put into prac- tice some of the ideas we have gained, but we are nevertheless not over-confident of our ability to attain the standards set before us. There is no real test for us until we try for ourselves without the help of a kindly supervisor, the theories and devices we have learned. It is our duty to see that the new aims and methods are carried out in such a manner as to convince the parents that 'their children are being educated in a broad senseg that they will be able to meet the conditions of life because they have been led to study the conditions which they have already met and have learned to think. Both faculty and students realize the need of dormitories. Every day there is a mad scramble to get to school, and at the end of a crowded day to get home again. There is little opportunity for social intercourse. Every moment spent in the building is filled with little duties and big tasks. If there were dormitories, there would be many a half or quarter of an hour for conversation or for walks and games, and occasionally an hour or two for picnics and informal parties. We should all have a stronger and I'llO1'9 vital interest in the school. For a few years the school would be our home. We should become more attached to the school than is now possible. The friendships we make would be firmer and the memories of the happy life here would be among the most pleasant memories that we could have. In 1919 Miss Goldsmith, as President of the Alumni Association, sent a mes- sage to one or more former students in various cities and towns, to ask 'them to start a Salem Normal School Club in their home towns. As a result, clubs were started in the following towns: Everett. Haverhill, Danvers, Quincy and Spring- field. ' The purpose of these clubs is to awaken and perpetuate a feeling of loyalty and to al 'd an opportunity for the graduates of earlier years to become acquainted with the -e recent graduates. lt is hoped that at some time in the future some- .thing may me done for the school. These clubs are at present very flourishing. They meet at regular intervals and aim to establish friendly social relations. The Danvers club has been 'taking lessons this winter under the direction ol' Mr. Whitney, and the money paid for these lessons by the members has been added to a fund which was started in order to do something for the school bye and bye. lt is hoped that students in the dilliereut high schools may be encouraged to enter the teaching profession through the inlluence ol' the clubs. ll: :lr :li :li 'l'he stall' wishes lu thank all who have helped make this year's book a success. We :sllolllfl like to express our appreciation nl' the kind advice and assistance of 'lic faculty, and the eo-operation ol' those students who have l'aitlil'ullv supported 'he ellorts ul' the stall. ln
