They are the rivers. Slow ones? Perhaps. Muddy ones? Maybe. Wide ones? Deep ones? Lovely ones? Surely. Laughing in the face of storm, dashing up on and running back from the sandy shores, smiling, singing, they go to meet the Bay and the Ocean—yet they are ever surging onward. Perhaps every now and anon their progress is slow, but for the most part they flow steadily, surely and truly. They sing a song as they flow on their way, and this song is a poem of gladness, joy, and an optimism that counter-balances all hardships and struggles. T he Eastern Shore—the peninsula—Delmarva! Its legends —its beauty—its oneness! Lifting it seems that these rivers should wind in and out of our Yearbook, enhancing its beauty and one¬ ness as they characterize the loveliness and unity of our Eastern Shore. It will always live and be loved and sung. These rivers we love so will still flow on their merry ways long after you and I have passed out into our Sea of Eternity. May our lives lead us as surely to the Perfect End as our Rivers lead to the Bay. JJ aC_ Along the River road, near our Alma Mater u T T I ? n u Vi VL T IL How beautiful beneath the sun The dazzling streams of Maryland run! Their leaping waters laugh and shine Where live the chestnut and the vine— Where bloom the daisies pure and white And mountains seek the stars of night. Their tuneful names but lend them grace As to the sea their course they trace. What name so tuneful in its flow As that of the Wicomico? The Bush and Severn ripple down Past whirring mill and busy town, Chanting the song of Maryland’s worth, T he fairest state that blesses earth. The Pocomoke and Manokin Sunshine and shadow quiver in; The Choptank gambols on its way, Nor stops to rest by night or day, And ' neath the softest summer sky Doth flow the Chester and the Wye. These are the streams whose waters run Thro’ Maryland ' s shade and Maryland’s sun. Like jewels aglint in morning’s light, And ' neath the golden stars of night; Forever may they carry down T he hum of city, field and town. Forever may they chant their lays, These fair and hist’ric waterways; May flowers bloom and orchards grow Where tunefully they gently flow, To feed the mills on every hand And bless the State of Maryland.

Page Twenty-five Q9Q Lines to tlie Chester River How oft, when floating on thy placid stream At evening, as the long day seeks its end, And o’er thy bosom still a peaceful calm Alights, save where a lingering zephyr kisses Thy mirrored countenance into gentle smiles On the low murmur of the distant town Disturbs thy slumber have I gazed With rapture on thy sloping shores? Oh, Chester! How I love thine every mood! What mortal brush could paint thy landscape! Scenes that fill my heart with ecstasy May thy rippling laughter Yet revive me with the song thou sangest Of old and, if by chance I should return And seek thy pleasant dells, will thy great heart Beat true, as now? And wilt the harsher music Of humanity accord with that The soft and soothing voice of Nature sings? Moody.

Page Forty Class Poem In the very heart of the Eastern Shore, Mid fragrance of Spruce and Pine, Flows an ever changing, joyous river, Dark like blood-red wine. When pine trees their needles drop each year, This happy murmur the tall trees hear. Where the greenest green of the meadows was, Where the flowers scented the air. Where laughing sunshine played its beams, An enchanted stream flowed there. It laughed through fairest glades of bloom, Echoing clear the Bob-White’s tune. It slowly widened as it onward flowed, Beneath the Weeping Willow; It always reflected the blue of the sky, And the clouds like soft white pillows. It grew wide and deep as the miles grew more, ' Till now it washed on a sandy shore. Flow on, brave river! O’er rocks and o’er stones Lasting courage thine ever be Flow on, brave river! Thy purpose we know Is to join the surging sea. May the old rose glow of sunset bright, Mingled with silver from the pale moon’s light.

Page Forty-two Class History Poem As the sun’s rays to the daffodils, As the rainbow to the cloud, As the dew to the greenest grasses, As fruit to the limb that’s bowed, So has our life at Normal, Beyond our fairest dream. Brought sun to the bud unopened And given life a rosier gleam. Sometimes we were cross at 6.45 When the voice at our door was persistent; Sometimes we detested our lesson plans When the principles seemed inconsistent; But, then, when we were in the infirmary Disabled by a pain or an ache, Miss Ruth” was the sweetest thing we knew And we readily saw our mistake. And when the lesson worked like a charm And the class would respond like a wire We knew we’d dreamed those disturbing things And vowed that our energy would not tirel Our eyes reopened to the country We saw some sense in B. E.,” B. I.” and “I. Q.” We became strictly critical observers Of the things our elders would do! And as we accumulated knowledge” Till superintendents crowded our door, So we also changed in attitudes” And developed skills” not reckoned before. It was not classes alone that brought changes, (We have learned that long ere this) , It was the concomitant” things that counted— The things we will most dreadfully miss. We will miss the girlish chatter Heard in the corridor of the dorm; We will dream of the friendly 9.30 Which was met with a welcome storm ; We’ll long for the girls we are leaving, As we longed for our families before, We’ll cherish memories of the faculty— The teachers we have learned to adore. But no—not by pale lines of poetry, Can a class show the way it feels; It’s the things we do which will tell it— The things following commencement’s heels! And the Class of ' 29 will do it! It will use the past two years as a tool— And all the years following will pay tribute To the SALISBURY NORMAL SCHOOL !!!!!! Jennie DeWilde. Page Forty-three To The Wicomico Ob. lazy loafing river, Winding slowly out to sea, I don’t know where you come from Or what you think of me. But if some magic power Could grant my dearest wish, I’d follow you the summer thru And fish and fish and fish. And if the fish would not be caught Think you I’d sit and cry? Not on your life, Wicomico, I’d lie and lie and lie. And if this course you’d criticize, Construe it as you wish, But Adam ' s sons are bound to lie When they go out to fish. V. C.

In addition to the officers, the following make up the council: Faculty Members MlSS HELEN JAMART Miss Ruth Powell Senior Members DOROTHY DONOWAY Elizabeth Jackson Junior Member . ALINE ADKINS Page Fifty Student Grange Master. . Lecturer . Secretary T reasurer Robert Smith Marian McAllister . Jennie DeWilde .Mary Hancock HY should a Normal School have a Grange, an official chapter of the world famous organization, the Patrons of Husbandry? If you should put that question to the Student Grange of Salisbury Normal School you would quickly get an answer. First, because the Grange is the organization of rural people, the great social force which helps to transform the farmer from a lonely toiler to a cheerful worker. Maryland ' s country school teachers should know about those factors which help toward the ideal country life. Second, the Grange affords an opportunity for the development of latent talent. The Normal School will long remember the dramatic skill of the cast in “The Voice of Authority,” the executive ability of the lecturer and the secretary, and the candy-making art of the treasurer. Third, because membership in the Grange brings contact with the big outside world. The Seventh Degree members who attended the National Grange in Washington count that as a real red letter day in their lives, and the trip to Valley Forge will long live in the memory of all. Is the Student Grange worthwhile? The Salisbury Grangers think so. 99 Q Page Fifty-one Y. W. C. A. President . EMMA JONES Vice-President . . Edna BEASTEN Secretary . MARGARET WATKINS Treasurer .

MlSS RUTH POWELL tT ipV HE outstanding achievements of the group this year has been the Vesper sc ' vices conducted each Sunday evening at six o’clock by members of the organization. At each service a minister from Salisbury or some man or woman prominent in the community has spoken and has brought prac¬ tical ideas and ideals to the students. On Wednesday afternoons the faculty and students gathered in the social room and enjoyed punch together. Tea dances were given early in the year to get the students acquainted with one another. The Assembly Program for Thanksgiving was assigned to the Y. W. C. A., and in order to promote the thankful spirit a short play was presented, entitled The Thankful Heart.’’ The “Y” is now a member of the Tri-State Organization. Four of the mem¬ bers attended the Tri-State Convention at Western Maryland College, February 8-10, and found at this conference much of inspiration and help. Each Tues¬ day and 7 hursday morning Watch Services have been held, which have indeed been worthwhile. The study of Student Problems,’’ followed by the radio devotional services have been of great value. The members feel that the pur¬ pose of the organization to help all—spiritually, morally and socially, has been achieved. A Y. W. C. A. is of vital necessity in the school, progress to the associations of the coming year. Best wishes for the Page Fifty-twg Club President . Secretary-T reasurer Librarian .

Carnean Society President . V ice-President. Secretary . Treasurer Faculty Adviser . Iris Humphreys Betty Holloway Dorothy Nordwall . Virginia Waller Edna M. Marshall W-MNE of the outstanding societies of the Maryland State Normal School at NK Salisbury is the Carnean. This society is named for Miss Mabel Car- f Qd ney, a well-known educator interested especially in Rural Education -Since the school is definitely planned to train teachers for Maryland’s rural schools, it is fitting that one of its societies be a Carnean Society. This society supplements the regular classroom work by providing further opportunities for leadership and participation in both social and educational activities. Aside from regular monthly meetings, the contests with its rival society, the Baglean, form a regular part of its annual program. The contest events for the year 1928-29 are: Basketball, Tennis, Spelling, Story-Telling, Creative Effort Contest— original poems; songs, both words and music: posters and cartoons. The results of the contests are announced at the last assembly meeting of the year. At that meeting, society “spirit” runs wild. T his brief account of the society would be incomplete without some men¬ tion of the Carnean mascot. It was at one of the contests that “Pep,” a large white rooster, received its name and was welcomed by the group. The Car- neans have hitched their little green wagon to a golden star. They believe that society spirit will help them attain the star—success. Page Fifty-four Baglean Society President . Vice-President. Secretary . T reasurer .

The Normal Hop, a gliding waltz, Sweet music and romance, And thus we all remember, The sparkling Baglean dance. A rip, a rah, a sis, boom, bah! T he rooters all are bursting; Bagleans on top every time! For Carnean blood they’re thirsting. The other contests as they came Were spelling, stories, tennis, Just add to that creative art And thus the contests finish.

Miss Ruth Powell fTryiVEN as America is a melting pot of languages, so our Home Association is a melting pot of troubles. Twice a month the dormitory students Irwul gather in a large family group and discuss the problems which confront them. There are no rules in the Normal School except the rule of the majority, and it is in house meetings that the voice of the majority is heard. No problem is too great or too small to be discussed; and, truly, the decisions are the voice of the Normal School. Among the activities enjoyed by the association are the birthday celebra¬ tions and the candle lighting service. The birthday celebration is held during the dinner hour at the end of each month at a special table decorated in honor of the students whose birthdays occur during that time. The candle lighting service, or Christmas party, is perhaps the most beautiful event of the year, and one faculty members and students will always remember. Each year the Home Association leaves to the school a gift that will be of service to the future students of the school. This year a set of campus benches has been presented, with the hope that they will remind contented loungers of the best wishes of the Home Association of 1929.

The world in this old nook may peep, And think it listless and asleep; But I have seen the world enough To think its grandeur something dull. And here were men of sterling stuff, In their own era wonderful. George Alfred Townsend. Page Fifty-seven Atkl etic Association P n sident . Secretary . Treasurer .

This year they have advanced their number 100%, making a total enrollment of seventy-three members. Let us imagine that we are in our new auditorium seeing this year’s school movie of the A. A.’s. First there looms before our eyes the first meeting when, amidst general ha! ha’s! and rah ' rah’s, we welcomed our old and greeted our new members. Next there appears the initiation of our new athletic field. Exciting games of field ball and soccer are in action. Now we see the A. A.’s in winter. That gym is surely a peppy place. Both girls’ and boys’ basketball teams are practicing. Such speed! Indoor parties must be the hobby of the A. A.’s after all. Look at those overgrown children! Ha! Ha! It’s only the “kid” party. Who would ever have featured Mr. Caruthers as the mischievous sailor who won the cock fight? But the scenery has changed suddenly. Why are we in the armory at Baltimore? Oh, yes, there’s our volley ball team—only Eastern Shore team present. Really? “Athletic Meet—Biggest Event of the Year.” Observe the tennis tournament! What a delicious picnic! The A. A.’s surely know how to end a year. n, Page Fifty-eight Varsity Volley Ball Team Varsity Basketball Team Page Fifty-nine Junior Volley Ball Team Senior Basketball Team Page Sixty Page Sixty-three Sunset on the Severn O quiet hour on hill and stream, When Severn, like a mirrored dream, Reflects the glory Of dying daylight’s wonder-spell Upon each pine-clad peak and dell And promontory!

It is to the training of teachers what the science laboratory is to the study of a science. In it normal school students observe the work of expert teachers; they help carry on some of its activities; they do some teach¬ ing under the most careful supervision. The greater emphasis, however, is upon carefully directed observation and demonstration teaching, for which this school is planned. In order that there may be no conflict between the theory advocated by instructors of professionalized subject matter and educational courses and prac¬ tices carried on in the demonstration school, the Principal of the Elementary School holds the position of Director of Training on the normal school staff. Working with her arc two teachers by training and experience well-fitted to demonstrate good teaching and to supervise the teaching done by students. These teachers are; Principal —Edna M. Marshall. Teacher —Grades 1, 2, 3—Lillian Parker. 7 eacher —Grades 4, 5, 6—Margaret Weant. Attending the school are sixty-two children. Thirty-five of them are in grades one, two and three; the twenty-seven others are in grades four, five and six. They come from all parts of Salisbury and adjacent towns. They form a normal group of healthy, happy, active children—children who can work as well as play. Edna M. Marshall.

And with a half smile he suggested, “How about a ride in my Hudson?” “Tut, tut, my man,” said the Baker. ’Tis no use to Teas. We cannot even afford a Horsey.” “What a pleasure it must be to be a Lord,” volunteered the Butler, ‘with a vast estate! It fairly makes my blood Tingle. Picture a spacious Hall with Marks of aristocracy and wealth, and a fireplace where the bright Sparks could scurry up the chimney on a bitter night. My wife would never have to put her hands in Tubbs again. She could wear lovely dresses of White instead of coarse Brown ones she must use until they are shreds. I sometimes feel like Banning that color from our hut altogether.” T he three continued on their way, the Fisher finding his burden even heavier to Carey, and all of them worrying over the fact that dusk would overtake them before they reached the Town’send, where they were to meet the village black-Smith.
