In the heart of every being there’s a springtime, A happy, pulsing, rollicking, glorious springtime! Our life’s attuned to all the melody that Nature doth awaken, As she calls hack to life and growth, from their long winter’s nap, And through the maple runs less riotously the sap Than through our human hearts there surges on a wildly rapturous paean of joyous mirth, to heavenly harmony akin. Then thoughts, too big for our small selves to hold, do lift; us quite above the petty ills and cares of every day; And hursts of song just carry us along to mountain tops of joy, far, far away: So, with this little song, we now set free to wing its flight With spring’s most sturdy breeze to thee,—Our Annual.

ALEXANDER D. PLKMINGTON I’a c 5 HISTORY OF State Normal and Industrial School jil Ellendalc, North Dakota, by the Constitutional Convention in 188!) which further provided for an endowment of 10,000 aeres of land. In the year 1808 the citizens of Kllcndale purchased and donated as a site for the present buildings, a traet of forty acres of land, which was after- wards supplemented by a further donation of two acres of adjoining land. The State Legislature in the year 1807 authorized a bond issue of $15,000, from the proceeds of which the first building was erected and equipped, the corner stone having been laid on June 14, 1800. School was opened in September of that year, with a faculty consisting of three teachers, who had charge of tin departments of Manual Training, Cine Arts, and Home Economics. During the year 1002 an arrangement was made with Andrew Carnegie for furnishing funds, whereby the second building, known as Carnegie Hall, was erected and equipped. By Legislative Enactment, a Normal Department was added in the year 1907, and the name of the school changed to the State Normal and Industrial School. Since the completion of Carnegie Hall, the following buildings have been completed: Armory and Gymnasium, 1005; Girls’ Dormitory, 1910-11; Power House and Mechanic Arts Building, 1011. The teaching force has been increased from a faculty of three to a present membership of eighteen regular instructors and four assistants. W. 10. MICKS, President, 1899—1905 W. M. K10UN.

Those who make history have little time to write it—herein lies the explanation of the briefness of the history of the remark- able class of 1!)12. We have not engaged in such frivolities as class tights since our Freshmen or Sophomore years. Since that time we have endeavored to better tlie conditions of the entire life of the institu- tion, intellectually, physically and socially. This famous body of students, number- ing forty-six, claims as its members bril- liant post graduates who deemed it wise to join our ranks. Three of our members have been so highly esteemed by our most worthy faculty that they have been made assistants in the various departments. We have orators and debaters whose ability has won them honors. Musicians of great talent we are proud to claim. A number of our class have shown remarkable talent for the stage. In athletics the sterner sex have won honors that any organization might envy. The senior maids are coming to the front in basket-ball. The social life of the institution was of little value until we made our appearance on the scene. We have bettered the condi- tions to a most remarkable extent. As a final achievement let us fix in your mind, kind reader, that we are the first class in the history of the State Normal and Industrial School, who have had the ability to publish an annual. This we do without a moment’s hesitation, not so much to prove the ability of the class as to reflect the life of our beloved institu- tion. Pago 1G T I ♦ 1,11(11,10 I,.

Two years ago, when the 1913 class ap- peared on the scene, the Normal and In- dustrial School realized that here was a class of quality as well as of quantity. Its members came from all points of the compass, not only from North Dakota, but from the adjoining states. They are possessed of a variety of talents which have distinguished them in all the activ- ities of the school. In hoy’s basket-ball two Juniors won renown for their school and t heir class wherever the team played in the state. In fact, points made by the Juniors, number more than those made by all the rest of the team. Or do other classes boast of their military geniuses; a Junior won sec- ond place two years ago and the first place last, year in the military contest, a Junior is now at the head of the company, an- other Junior is Second Lieutenant, while ♦Juniors make up over half of the prize squad. Lest someone may think we have only athletes, we might mention our elo- quent debaters, both among boys and girls; our talented artist and cartoonist whose sickness this year, has been a real handicap in publishing this annual; our soloists and pianists, and, to cap the cli- max, our small but promising actor. Beauty, wit, eloquence, talent, brains— the Juniors have all in a remarkable de- gree; we feel deeply the consequent re- sponsibility cf holding them in trust to spend and be spent for the renown and betterment of our Alma Mater.

In .September of the year 15) 10. the Sophomores appeared upon the campus. In their Freshmen year they were so busy acquiring an education that they did not organize or even have a class tight. Their ardor for knowledge has coded greatly and they are just beginning to enjoy a little leisure. At the earnest request of Mr. Dunphy the class organized in their Sophomore year. From the moment of organization, they have been a power on the campus. Their ability in all directions is to he respected. Two Sophomore girls have dis- tinguished themselves as soloists. There are several who excel at playing the piano. The girls’ basket ball team has given the other teams such a race for supremacy that they are in despair. A Sophomore won the sharp shooter’s medal, while two others made the hoys’ basket ball team. If all the team were as good players as the two Sophomores we could heat any team in the nation. The.class of '14 is so large that, all other classes sink into insignifi- cance in comparison with it. Then too there are more pretty co-eds in the Sophomore class than any two other classes in the State Normal and Industrial School can muster. No undertaking can he carried thru successfully without the Sophomores back of it. Hecause of this, a bright future is assured to the school for at least two years. While other classes may fade from sight and hearing, the class of '14 will continue to he a power not only in the school hut undoubtedly in the state and nation.

We wonder if Franklin in his wisdom and foresight might not have had in mind the Class of 1916, when he wrote—‘‘Great Oaks from little acorns grow”. We arc all humble enough to admit that he might have had; for who of us does not feel within, the germ of knowledge daily ex- panding and growing at so dangerous a rate that our teachers fear that we will have to slacken the pace if we ever reach our Senior year in rugged physical health. Psychologists, we have heard, declare that mental development is often sought at the expense of physical health; but here may all fears be at rest, for who has seen better specimans of mental and physical vigor than the Freshmen of 1911? A majority of our members arc enrolled for complete courses and have already identified them- selves with the highest interests of the Institution. As our Freshman year draws to a close we are impressed with the rapid course of Time and the necessity of making the most of each fleeting moment, if, indeed, we are to leave “Foot-prints” seeing which, other timid Freshmen may take heart again.

Reorganized 1910 thru the efforts of Miss Gabriella Hrendemulil. In tlie broad fair land of Carnegia, where the level prairies stretch away to the distant purple hills, where the breadth of the plains but typifies the breadth of men’s thought., once dwelt a group of maidens. Under the direction of the Great Man and all his Noble Court, they sought earnestly for the hidden Treasures of Knowledge. And there came among them one who was older and wiser, one whose simple nobility won the hearts of the maidens. In response to her appeal they banded them- selves together. Those who were older and must sooner enter the great school of Life, called themselves Alphians; the younger maidens became Laonians. And as they worked, shoulder to shoulder, their sympathies were broadened, and their minds trained to grasp the problems which they, as leaders among the daughters of a people, must meet. The Noble Lady unwillingly left her bands and the Alphians struggled bravely on, loyal to Carnegia, but weakened by the lack of the inspiration of a leader. Then the Great Man of Carnegia saw their need and sent to them the Lady Beautiful, who was to win their hearts and strengthen their hands. He commanded that a great castle be built. In this castle, among the battlements which towered heavenward, a palace room was prepared for the Alphians. Here the little band met, and revised the Ancient Hook of Laws. The spirit of loyalty to Carnegia was strong in the hearts of these maidens. Eight won for the school the glories of the Athletic field. Two were silver-tongued orators, and two with their sweet voices cast the spell of music over the hearts of men. And four there were who realized the necessity of upholding the spiritual life of the school and who gave themselves freely in the service of others. Eight were ?rave Seniors known afar for their wisdom, and eight were members of the famous “lass of ’14. Concerning this little band there are many things, the which, if they should 3 written everyone, not even that mighty book, the Senior Snitcher” could contain. ;c 35 Sigma Pi Iota Literary Society V. G. Mowers CRITIC. HISTORY. In the fall of the year 1907, a group of young men assembled for the purpose of organizing a literary society. After Albert «Johnson was chosen first president, the stupendous undertaking of drawing up a constitution and procuring a name began. .Johnson, surrounded by such able lawyers as Alex Knox and Edward Porter, drew up a Constitution, to untangle the phraseology of which, it required some of the best legal lights in the state. The original document has since been revised and amended, so that any mem her, after sev- eral hours of careful study, may now comprehend it. Edwin Fait was chair- man of the name committee, which, after three or four weeks of diligent labor spent in translating Greek History, came across the name Sigma Pi lota, which seemed to satisfy all the requirements. Since the organization there have been twelve presidents, namely: Albert .Johnson, a descendant of the Vikings of Old ; the sapient Hoy Shepard ; “ Ed” Dales, the systematic student; “I3ill” Barrett, the burly ball “biffer”; the much admired Glenn Dill; Clyde McCormick, the distinguished gallant; .John Linn, the handsome, clever, good natured egoist ; Gust Blomquist, the strenuous Swede; Glenn Morrison, hard headed, but faithful; Claus Tomren, cautious and conscientious; “Bob” Earnest, self confident and impressive; and dignified “Dutch” Laemmle, under whom the society is now flourishing. The aim of the society is to promote literary ability, and to increase facility in public speaking. Debate is one of the main features, many very warm discussions occurring. To show the. cordial relations existing between our society and the Alphian, joint literary and social programs are arranged each year. It is our hope and prophesy that, with the aid they have obtained from the S. P. I., the members who have been graduated and will be graduated from this school, will be able to argue their way around all difficulties and have their names added to the list of the great orators and statesmen of the United States.

The object of their organization is to draw the young men of the school in closer touch with (he great Master and Teacher, Jesus Christ. Our motto is, “Strength and Cultivation of Spirit, Mind and Body”. The local association was organized in February ’08, by the State Student Secretary, F. F. Leavitt; Albert T. Johnson '08, was (he first president. The association which is growing, is among the strongest of such college organizations of the state.

A course in Bible study is offered in connection with the association oik. and plans for a Rural Problem Study class are being made.

For the past two years there has been a growing demand on the part of the students taking the course in Farm Engineering, for an opportunity to develop along literary lines. Out of these conditions has developed the Engineering Club, which was organized February, 1912. The object of this club is two-fold: the primary, being to develop in its members the ability to present technical ideas in a clear and concise manner, from notes or manuscript, or without either; the secondary, being to cultivate the habit of reading engineering and technical literature, since by this means only, can any one hope to keep pace with the rapid development along such lines of work. It is felt that the Engineering Club has an important place among the organ- izations of the school. Much enthusiasm and loyalty have been displayed by its members, who feel greatly henefitted by the organization. The Club has a bright and promising future before it.

II' you don’t believe it, ask us. We cordially invite you to visit the shops at any time. The lecture room, drafting room, carpenter shop, pattern room, black- smith shop, foundry and machine shop are equipped with high grade modern apparatus and afford the best of facilities for a wide range of practical training. MECHANIC ARTS BUILDING BENCH WORK MACHINE SHOP BLACKSMITH SHOP Particular mention is made of the carpenter shop which accomodates thirty-six students at benches, besides ten others at the lathes. There are several electrically driven machines for rapid work in the more advanced courses. The Blacksmith shop has twenty power forges of the down-blast pattern. The machine shop has fourteen modern engine lathes, a planer, a shaper, a universal and tool grinder, a universal milling machine, a drill grinder, and a well supplied tool room. Can you beat it?

These questions are more frequently asked by thoughtful men and women than ever before. The purpose of the department of Domestic Science is to give training in all subjects that pertain to life in the home. The administration of the home is dependent upon Chemistry, Bacteriology, and Hygiene; and it is upon these sciences that the lessons in cookery, dietetics, home nursing and household management are based. Foods are studied as to source, composition and food values. The laboratory work is a continuation of the work of the preceding terms. Throughout the entire course there is constant class or laboratory work in the study of foods, food produc- tions, nutrition, dietetics, household sanitation, home nursing, home management and special work in the training of Domestic Science Teaching for public school work. Clara Orton teaches cooking. And you bet she knows her work, Under her one needs to hustle. For there is no chance to shirk. Clara Orton is impartial; She treats all the girls the same, Come in late when ’ere you choose to She will never call your name. Clara Orton looks so saintly Yet you really know she’s not. Have you ever seen her diamond? Generally, that means a lot. INVALID TRAY A TRIUMPH, CULINARY All was silent, hushed, expectant In the halls ol' the Dakotah, Maidens tip-toe hither, thither On wee feel Im-mens-a-wa-wa; What is it excites the maidens? What is it they fain would fathom? Is there some dread thing impending? With commanding step A-dali-wah Tall, lithe, stately maid with courage, Waves aside all anxious warnings Opes the oven door Me-ta-la. Forth from out the dark recesses Forth she draws, O, psychic moment, Forth she draws,—an apple pie! With firm hand and blade of metal, Metal blade of finest temper, She would carve the pie Pas-tri-mat. Consternation clouds the white brow Of the disappointed maiden, Muscles trained in sports athletic Make a show-down at this moment. Crystal drops of perspiration Clothe the white brow of the maiden And, as breath comes fast and faster, Sounds articulated slowly, Form these words, Or-thog-ro-gra- phic, “Not one blooming puncture make 1 In this leather coated object”.

Pago 53 Page 51 SEWING CLASS Domestic Art ruder the carefully planned system employed in this department, learn- ing to sew is as much of an educational process as any of the Industrial Arts. The object of instruction in Domestic Art. is to give young women a practical knowledge of the selection of materials, their growth, and process of manu- facture; the character of textiles and fabrics, the quantity of material needed, its cost and suitability. Special attention is given to designing and drafting of patterns, which are used by the students. Those who take the regular Domestic Arts course have one and one-half hours of Laboratory work daily, for two years. This course includes advanced sewing, color and design, home decora- tion, drafting and designing, dress making, study of textiles and art needle work. Much care is taken in teaching different kinds of crocheting and embroidery. This work is done under the direction of an efficient instructor, but the pupils are encouraged to use their own judgment and taste as far as possible in design. A three months’ course is offered in both Domestic Science and Art for those who can not attend school for the regular term. Page 55 DIARY OF A METHODS STUDENT Sept. 27, 1911. Methods class met today at 3:35 I . M. We talked about the teacher's responsibility and the great aim of education—Character building. Got into some awfully lively discussions and the period was thru almost before we knew it. There seems to be such a bond of sympathy between us Kiris and Miss Hrendemuhl.—I suppose it is because we are all interested In the training; of the child’s mind. Dec. 1st. 1911. Today Miss 15. announced that our practice classes will begin soon. Oh, dear little book, if only 1 might be one of the chosen few to enter this vast new Held of experi- ences. What a glorious privilege—to till the young mind, so eager for knowledge, full to the brim with truth and wisdom. IOach day to watch the child's mind, like the bud of a llower. as it expands and strengthens Into full-blown maturity. Who knows hut what I might have the training of a future Lincoln or John Lacmmlc! I realize my responsibility but with out stretched arms I welcome it. (Kate Haas asked me today if we practice teachers were expected to attend Wednesday night faculty meeting. I shall have to ask Mr. Dunplty.) Dec. 5. 1911. 1 have a class in Giammar. It's taken me all evening to make out my plan. I am suie it must be almost perfect! i know Miss Iticndemuhl will embarrass me, before the whole methods class, by showering me with compliments, but I am prepared and will act as calm, composed and indifferent as possible. Dec. G. 1911. My heart was madly palpitating with expectation as I hastened to the1 Methods Doom, after my corrected plan book. At tirst I didn't recognize my sombre plan, now so dazzling with its brilliant red-marked corrections of, ''Do more specific”, ‘'Illustrate , “Sp”, See me after class”. I’eihaps that was the reason I was a trlMe crest-fallen and didn't appear at my best when I met my class. 1 did fairly well, considering the circumstance, but it was two hours before the forty-minute period was over and I dragged myself, a nerve shattered wreck, from that room. What a dlflercnce si few hours will make! This morning, I arose happy and en- thusiastic and now—well—a teacher’s life is not a path of roses, by any means. Dec. 7, 1911. Can’t take the time to write. My practice class simply absorbs all my attention. Dec. n. 1911. Whenever I hear the word plan book every evil instinct in my nature is aroused. McMurray's Methods says, “the child must simply be guided into the right path, where interest will be developed for gaining knowledge, and tin difficult problem is passed.” More light! To find that path! Jan. 12. 1!) 12. Wo girls expound our profound ideas on teaching, but they sound so Mat and common-place! If only there were one boy in Methods! I think the masculine mind is broader and more able to grasp ideas. Jan. H, 1912. Miss Hansen, our new Critic and Methods teacher, ar- rived today. I do hope she isn't so finicky about our plan books. Sin kind of looks that way though. Jan. IK. 1912. Miss Hansen visited my class today. Jan. IG. 1912. Miss Hansen visited my class today! Jan. 17. 1912. Miss Hansen visited my class today!! Jan. lx, 1912. Miss Hansen visited my class today!!! Jan. 19. 1912. Miss Hansen visited my class again. Will I survive? Feb. 7. One of life's little tragedies. Today I discovered Lincoln's birthday comes on Monday and that spells no holiday until Thursday, February 22nd. Not counting Sundays and Mondays and Washington’s birthday, there will only be thirty days and then Hip! Hip! Hurrah! my practice work is o’er. Fell. 21. Hope I secure a good position for next year for I cer- tainly deserve it. Had my picture taken to send to Agencies. The proof Is something Merce. 1 know I'm better looking than that! Wish I had worn my party dress, but the teachers were united in saying school boards prefer shirt waists. G M. Page 56 Commercial Department COMMERCIAL ROOM Ellendale, N. Dak., Fob. 15, 1912. lion. Emanuel Wiesphenning, Fredonia, N. Dak. Dear Sir: In reply to your letter, inquiring about the Commercial Department of the State Normal and Industrial School, I wish to say that this department is one of the strongest in the institution. It is under the supervision of Prof. P. A. Cooley. The Department oilers two courses: A Business Course, and a Stenographic Course. Anyone having a fair common school education may pursue the Business Course; but at least one year of high school is required before a student is allowed to take the Stenographic Course. In addition to the Courses mentioned above, a commercial student is expected to take part in one of the literary societies of the school in order to obtain training in debating and public speaking. Then too, the office, the de- partments, and the various organizations supply the students with work which gives a wide range of practical training in taking dictation, in mimeographing and in typewriting. The students taking Commercial Law, have the advantage of attending the local sessions of the district court. In fact, tile department aims to give its students the most practical training possible, in order that they may be able to secure first-class positions upon graduation. The instructors of the Commercial Department are experts in their lines. Furthermore, they are congenial and helpful, always willing to aid a student in whatever he may need their assistance. There is always a feeling of broth- erhood among the students of this department which makes the pursuit of commercial training at this institution very pleasant. Hoping that the above will answer your inquiries, I am, Yours very truly, Gottlieb Wicsphenning. Dear Pa:—I have written you the above letter that you may know how much I have improved since entering the State Normal and Industrial School. Yours, Gott.

Page 59 Aphrodite, Ooddess of Art and licauty, had grown weary of the strife of Olympus, and as she sped Earthward, she resolved to establish for herself a kingdom in I he land of Dakota. A great school was being built at Kllcndale, and here she resolved to make her abode. Many Marth-Maidcns came to help her strengthen her realm. One there was, tall and fair, upon whom Aphrodite looked with favor. This maiden, inspired by the Muse, taught the art students in the great school, to catch upon their canvas the gl::ry of the sunsets,—the beauty of the wild flowers. She it was who strengthened within them the appreciation of Nature’s beauty, and, that they might better love the work of the Masters of Art, she taught them of the history of Art and of all the great masterpieces. Nor did this maiden forget, in teaching her pupils, the practical side of their training; she taught them to design, and to apply this knowledge to their needle work and to home decoration. Those who were to go out as teachers became skillful in molding clay, in making pottery, in weaving baskets, in folding paper, in drawing, and in many other things which train the hand and the eye. And .Jove smiled, well-pleased, as lie looked down from Olympus upon the kingdom of Aphrodite. J’llKO 00 Pago 61 SECOND TERM DANCE -------o------- V. M. C. A. ANI) V. W. O. A.

Only two veteran players remained and various complications prevented the selection of new men till late in the season. The entire team was light in weight, while McGraw was the only tall man. In the lace of these conditions the record is admirable. Out of thirteen games the N-l won nine. Seven of these games were played on strange floors, and perhaps eleven of them with teams outclassing the N-l in size and weight. Of the four games lost, one went to May ville by three points and one to Lisbon High School by one point, only. 'The style of play improved consistently throughout the season, grad- ually developing from an individual scramble in the first two games to a system of lightening passes, clever guarding and excellent team work. Ben Crabtree (‘enter and Guard Class of ’13 “Bareknuckle” is one of the best guards that ever represented our school. Although a guard, he played at forward and center most of the season, and his work in these positions proved him to be an all-round star player. IIis fast, aggressive playing, coupled with his ability to cover his man, makes him a stumbling block to all his opponents. Ilis speed is remarkable. He works hard from the beginning of the game to the end, and inspires his men with his own aggressive courage.

This was the first track team the Normal and Industrial School had, and considering the fact that they had very little time in which to practice, they made a wonderful showing. On .May 13, 1910, the First Annual Track Meet was held at Kllendale, in which several high schools of the state participated. The N-l not only won the Meet by winning almost every event, but also broke some of the stall records. With this outlook, we decided to send a Track Team to the North Dakota Inter-Scholastic Field Meet which was held at Grand Forks on May 20-21, 1910. The N-l won fifth place among the twenty-four schools represented. Individual honors were as follows: MeGraw, second in the Discus Throw; Wallis, third in the 100 yard dash; McClure, fourth in the Shot Put.. The great event of the Meet, the Half Mile Relay, was won hy the N. I. Team, who lowered the state Record to 1 :39 1-5, a record which has not been beaten.

The instructor is even thinking of going out on the road with two or three of us to show what gym- nastic work can do to improve the health and appearance of some girls. How have we done it ? Indian Clubs have helped some, hut I don’t like them. Regular exercises, especially the dancing, parallel bars, spring board and horse, Hying rings, basket ball, tennis, all contribute. I really think that marching, “toe first, chin in, chest up” is the best exercise for many of us and a certain amount of it is fun.

The loudest and longest cheering of the year was called forth by the basket hall from November until the end of tin season. At first, each class had two teams, with substitutes. Early in February, a team was picked to represent each class and practice began for tin championship games. Under Miss Fleminglon’s able coaching they developed a. sportsmanlike spirit and the ability to play a clean fast game. When the teams for the championship games were selected, the Fresh- man team disbanded and the Outlaw team took its place, made up of Alumni, Freshman and one Senior. Five preliminary games were played, with tin following results: The final game was played the evening of April 2nd, between the Seniors and Juniors, resulting in a score of 8 to 4 in favor of the Seniors.

This contest was originated by Mr. I). Ferrara, and continued by Mr. Cooley. The contest is held at the end of the winter term, and is accompanied by a banquet and dance. All members of Company A are allowed to enter. The first was held in 1908, consequently, that held in the spring of 1912 will be the fifth. At this time Company A is inspected by a United States army officer, detailed as inspector of small arms for this district. For individual excellency a gold medal was offered at the first contest, a gold and a silver at the second; and since a silver and a bronze medal have been given as first and second prizes, respectively. The Standard of Company A is given to the squad showing the greatest skill in military tactics. Each year a streamer is attached to this standard, bearing the name of the officer commanding, and the number of the squad.

Declamatory, Oratorical and Short Story Contest To stimulate a keener interest in superior work the school has instituted annual contests in Oratory, Declamation and Short Story Writing. These contests are open to all students. The preliminary oratorical and declamatory contests are held in the spring term, and from the number of contestants the four best speakers in each are chosen to appear in the final contests during Commencement Week.

Imm iteratura fthe a wp$w to be p£Sircfc| ’gue hould b4 i little raooed Pago S’5 A NORWEGIAN IDYLL On a high mountain peak, the champion for hundreds of miles around, stood Gunnar Pyeld, violin under arm. lie had felt the irresistible drawing of the mountains, of the elevated heights where inspiration, freedom of worship and strength for the day’s tasks are found,—and he had followed on. It was at the time when the night takes its leave and the day enters. lie became aware of the curious still- ness, a silence so intense and deep that he was almost afraid to breathe or stir, for fear of breaking it. lie felt that he was getting a glimpse into the temple of the divine, where the priests were lighting the sacred flame. A brilliance in the east made him turn around. There it was—the light! Like a great ball of fire, the sun rose above the sea, casting its rays in all directions, and illuminating the earth as it went along. A thick fog had gathered in the valleys, and as the sun rose higher and higher, it let its golden rays play upon it, changing it into thousands of beautiful colors. A gust of wind came up. For a moment the fog resisted, then began to move, slowly at first, then faster and faster, fleeing, lashing, like the sea in a storm. Then it parted into hundreds of little clouds, which, rising higher and higher, gradually vanished. The sun was master of the new day. At the close of the day we find Gunnar Fyeld at a wedding party as one of the musicians. The bride seemed to him a memory of the past; for he knew those sunshiny eyes, that silvery laugh and those graceful movements. The thrall of the morning’s majesty was still upon him and as he played all seemed so real and in such perfect harmony that he forgot time and place. Thinking he was with his wife once more, watching the sunrise and playing for her as he used to play, the notes of his music grew soft, rippling, thrilling, sometimes sounding like the bird’s twitter, sometimes like the wind’s soft rustle in the trees, or the trickling sound of a moun- tain creek; and through it all streamed an undertone, warm and bright as a sunbeam. The bride, feeling the meaning of the music, feeling the call, though unable to account for it, looked at him; and, as he looked into her eyes, the sudden realization came to him that this was his long-lost child. The notes grew tender, longing, passionate. The quest was ended, but could he, the homeless wanderer, claim his own? The memory of the dark, stormy night and the shipwreck when he was separated from his wife and child came back to him. The music grew like the raging storm and the thundering crash of the waves against the ship. And now, when ho found that she had been saved, could he follow the voice and the claim of the blood? The music sounded like the cry of the shipwrecked, the prayers for help. The struggle was fearful; but he resolved that he must not speak, that she must never know. There came a few trembling notes,—the sound of a string that broke. The enchanted listeners did not realize that the music had stopped, until the old violinist’s strength had given way and he had fallen to the door. After a few moments’ pause the festivities continued, and the incident was soon forgotten. Even the bride, in her happiness, forgot for a time. When she went to look for the stranger she found he had gone. But, in the stillness of the night, a lone wanderer, violin under arm, made his way up the hill, towards the mountains with their lights and shadows and mysterious deeps. AGATHA LILLEYORD. Pago SC COUNTRY VERSUS CITY. In the violet-dotted meadow, in the orchard near the well Oft to me there comes the clear notes of my songsters. I can t � 11 Meadow-lark and perky robin’s call from blackbird, jay, or thrush; And there’s heaps of fun in mocking that Bob-white off in the brush. You may talk of all th’ advantages of lectures, plays, and such One gains from town and city life and “keeping close in touch”, But, for me an old white farm-house with its funny gable roof And behind it, sloping meadows and a tiny purling stream Twixt trees that with far reaching tops quite hold themselves aloof And, in their lofty dignity, such lordly creatures seem! There life is worth the living, and this was meant for giving just the needed contrast to my dream. OLD N. I.

I'flKC 87 IN PIONEER DAYS The C5irl walked slowly across the clover-scented grass towards the long low old-fashioned house, which seemed to be hiding itself from the gaze of the curious passer-by. Half hidden among the vines sat Grandmother, her face turned towards the glory of the western sky, her eyes filled with tender memories. At the sound of The Girl’s footsteps she turned, and a little old hook slipped from her lap and fell half open at The Girl’s feet. “It’s your mother’s Hook of Thoughts”, Grandmother said gently, as The Girl turned the yellow leaves. Then in the fading twilight the girl read in her clear voice the girlish scrawl. “June 3, 1870, Father went down to lied Wing after a sack of flour last week, lied Wing is forty miles away and Old Maude was lame so Father walked. He came back yesterday and brought me this book, for today is my fourteenth birthday. I shall call it my “Book of Thoughts” and write in it each year. “Father brought Mother a letter from Grandfather in England which con- tained an English half-crown for me. J asked mother why she didn’t get Grand- father to help us when Father was away at war and we had nothing to eat. Then she told me this story: “Once in the Merry Days of England, a Yorkshire lad came to court a Lancashire lass. As they sat in the old fashioned living room they overheard the girl’s mother in the next room say, ‘Robert, that Dick has come to see our Mary Ann again’, and the father said, ‘As Mary Ann makes her bed, so she must lie on it.' Years passed; the Yorkshire lad won the heart of the Lancashire lass and they left old England to make themselves a home in the New World. When the call of his country came to Dick in his Wisconsin frontier home, Mary Ann bravely put aside her fears and sent him forth to fight while she was left alone to face the poverty and danger of pioneer life. The struggle was hard but she remembered her father’s words and said, ‘As 1 have made my bed, so shall 1 lie on it.’ 1 showed this story to Father and he patted my head and said Mother was a sure—‘nough pioneer’ ”. “June 3, 1880. I was afraid I could not write in my Book of Thoughts on this birthday, but Old Andy made me some ink from an herb he found and J am writing by the light of the camp fire. In the middle of May we started in our prairie schooner for Dakota Territory. There are twelve schooners in our company and to-night they are circled around the campfire. Old Andy walks up and down keeping close watch for we have heard that the Chippewas and Sioux are on the war path. Uncle Tom Stout with half the men are keeping guard behind us, and Cousin Jim and five other boys have gone ahead to look for a camping place where we can find fuel, water and grass. The rest of the men and boys have camps on either side of us. I am not afraid of the Indians but I don’t like to eat wild onions and wild turnips. Mother made some coffee from barley and some bran cakes to-day because it is my birthday.” “June 5, 1881. Altho we have no neighbors within twenty miles of our new Dakota home. Mother gave a birthday party for me which lasted three days. Old Andy came from his camp on the Sheyenne River, and Cousin Jim came from the Little Missouri three hundred miles away. After they had pitched their tents and built camp fires, we roasted the buffalo which Old Andy shot on his journey and had a big dinner. The first night we danced. Jack Barclay, a cowboy who came with Cousin Jim, played “Money Musk” and Irish Washerwoman”. Old Andy sang “The Harvest is Over and the Potatoes are all Dug”. “Yesterday, Jack and I went to Whitestone Battlefield. When we started in the morning everything was fresh and green, but a terrible Chinook wind came up during the day. On our way home, in the evening the grass crumbled to a brown Pago S8 powder beneath the horses’ feet and not a green thing could be seen. There is not a blade of grass left in the pastures and the fields are scorched and brown. The loss of our crops has discouraged Father; but Mother is always brave and cheerful. Today Jack is going back, and Father and 1 are going to Keystone to sell a load of buffalo bones”. “June 3, 1882. Tonight Jack and 1 have been reading this little, old Book of Thoughts together. When I read the words written so many years ago: ‘The Yorkshire lad won the heart of the Lancashire lass and they left Old England to make for them- selves a home in the New World’, Jack said, ‘The Sheyenne boy won the heart of the Whitestone maid and together they left Dakota to make for themselves a home on the frontier’. Jack and 1 love the broad free life of the frontier too well to give it up. To-morrow wo leave for the land beyond the Missouri for we know It gives us what we want—the chance to tight and conquer through our own powers”. The Girl's face was aglow—her voice tilled with reverent wonder as she read the entry made twenty years later—the last one: ‘‘The contlict is over; no journeys save those of memory can take us to those pioneer days of simple joys and primitive struggles. The battles of the frontier have been fought and civilization has won”. In the fading light, the Grandmother’s face stood out before The Girl with the sweetness and strength of years upon it. There was the mark of the plains— broad, free, independence—a touch of the mountains—calm, shy frostiness, but, conquering all, the current of patient struggle and brave endeavor. And The Girl, in her heart, paid a tribute to those women who had been among the Builders of the West, whose spirit is a nation’s priceless heritage. M. L. nj A N. D.

My, I take an awful hard course, sewing, arithmetic, music, penmanship but I guess I can carry it if I study hard. Julia and me like our room. It is awfully nice. It has electric lights and there is a bathroom that all the girls use and have to take turns cleaning. The lady that is boss gave one girl an awful scolding and made her clean the tub over again. They call this one that runs everything the preceptress. She’s not very big but when she wrinkles up her forehead and looks at some of the girls it makes me want to do everything just right. Tell Pa I’ve had to spend an awful lot of money so far—50c for enrollment lee, $14 for board, 75c for curtains and $2 for Jim suit and $2 for Snows drafting system. There are some lovely girls here. There is one girl who has never been away from homo before and she follows the preceptress around all the time. Her name is Ilessie but 1 don’t know her last name for sure. There is another girl that is going to be a missionary or something. She and a boy called Jack go to church regular every Sunday night. We had a recepshun here last night and 1 wore my pink dress but I guess my slippers that you sent to Sears and Roebuck for are too small. When you take the eggs to town next week I wish you would trade them for some real high heal slippers. All the girls here wear high heals and 1 wish I could have some and can I have three dollars to buy one of those hats that come down over your eyes. All the girls wear them and they are so cute. I wish I had 75c to buy an N. I. banner. We could hang it in the parlor when I come home and everyone would know I had been away to school. Well the lady that ownes the library is tapping her pencil at me so I guess I’ll quit and get my Arithmetic. Your loving daughter, MARY. P. S. Clive my love to Pa and how’s Rover.

Dear Ma: Well, I have completed two weeks of school and have escaped with the loss of only two suits of clothes, several hats and shirts and a couple of black eyes. I think I'll like it line here. I seem to be very popular. I met a fellow named Letson and lie’s sure a fine fellow, lie said he was organizing a company among the students to build a bowling alley in the lower corridor of Carnegie Hall (That’s the main building). I gave him live dollars. He says the alley will pay big dividends in a few months so my money is a safe investment. The fellows are going to run me for president of the fussers’ union. .1 don’t know what that is, but it’s an important position. Malin said I’d be sure to win out because my only opponent would be Gus Blomquist and he has an awful reputation down here. Two fellows named Stahl and Shimmin tried to get me to crawl in thru a window in the dorm and get something to eat. But just then Boyd and Vandanacker came along and after inquiring what I intended doing, they advised me not to do anything so rash as that was against the laws of student government. Then they borrowed a dollar of me and promised to pay me back next week, and just as they were leaving Boyd said “Thanks, old sport, we can never repay you.” I don’t know just what he meant but 1 haven’t seen the money yet. I got acquainted with a fellow named Laemmle. McGraw told me that all the girls were wild over him. Laemmle promised to introduce me to all of them and also gave a few pointers on how to act among them. lie said the girls liked candy and I should never on pain of eternal banishment from society come to see any of them without at least a pound of candy. 1 never got to see the girls yet tho, because every time I buy any candy a bunch of the fellows come around and make me deal it all out. Say, Ma, J ought to have a new suit. All the fellows have two, and some candy-dressers like Rosenthal have six or seven. I knew you wouldn’t want me to look like a hayseed at the dance so I’ve got. a dandy all but pay for it. Its awful good cloth. You get pa to send $35 or $20 right away. It takes a lot to get started don’t it? How’s everybody at Kulm? Home’s a good place, but you get wise to a lot here.

As the four inter-class teams made their way to the Dickey their enthu- siastic cheers: Ghee he, Ghee ha, Ghee ha, ha, ha, Flemington, Flcminglon, Hah! Rah! Rah! were answered by the crowds: Rah-Rah-Rah! Rah-Rah-Rah! Rah-Rah-Rah! Basket Ball Girls. During the spread and talk-lost which followed it was decided that: Winnie Wagner is the best all around player. Bessie Willis is the fastest player on the floor. Laura Randall can jump quicker and higher than any other .player. Grace Gish is the best all around guard. Barbara Barnes and Gladys McMartin are an unusually good pair of guards. Til lie Baumbauch is a scoring machine. Laura McCulloch is a wonder. The Sophomores have the most sportsmanlike disposition. Substitute is the hardest position to play. Basket Ball is good discipline and good fun for girls. The Seniors have played their last game—but the other inter-class teams look forward to greater victories in 1913.

No, lie is not striking the ladies. That is not what makes them holler. They are singing “Cloister Gate”. The poor ladies think they can sing. The funny man says it is hum. Never mind, poor ladies! Some day you will learn to sing. Then the funny man will tell you it “iss a breathe from heav-cn”. Come, little boy, let us go into Ibis nice big room. This is the dom-es-tic sci-cnee room. See all the little girls sit-ting around the table. Hear the teacher talk to the girls. She says, “Your ap-rons are aw-ful”. She says, “You must wash your ap-rons”. She says, “Dirty ap-rons show something lack-ing”. “There is something lack- ing”, she says. She is very ex-cit-ed. The gilds do not care. She can not hurt them. They only laugh at her. She is only a prae-tice teacher. Here is a buzz-saw. Does it not make a pretty humming sound? Be care-ful not to sit on it when it is in motion. To do so might cause the un- der-taker to chuckle with glee. Try to saw this small iron bar in two. Do you see the pretty ml sparks? Run away, little man, or Mr. Fields will catch you. Oh, hear the glee club singing! No, my child that is not the glee club sing- ing. That is Miss Eat-on’s class cry- ing. They love to stud-y Hist-or-y of Edu-cat-ion but the naughty bad tcach-er will not let them, so they are cry-ing. Bye and bye, she will feel sor-ry for them and will give them a nice long lesson and then they will feel glad, will they not? i’a� o 04 Let us play a game of Basket Ball. See that nice big ball. Run, run with the Ball! Throw it in the basket! Let the mean man blow his whistle. We do not care. We must not let the other little boy get the ball. See! See! the ball is coming to the boy. Do not let him catch it. Too bad! The mean man has fouled you. Hiss him! You may mob him when you get him outside. We are especially favored by having for our hostess, the Editor-in-chief of the “S. N. I. teller”. She has indeed proved a mother to us all during her reign and owing to her influence, our table has had the name of being the best in behavior in the dining room. Next in importance to our hostess comes “Chief”. He claims to be the “Champion fusser of the N. 1.” Indeed we little wonder at this as we know that Apollo in all his beauty would have squirmed with envy had lie beheld our “Chief”. Among the other exalted personages at. our table is “Gussie”. He is president of the Senior Class, and thinks, because of this fact, that he has to maintain a sad and gloomy exterior, looking down with pity on his fellow beings. He is in a very unsuccessful way, trying to imitate the manners of “Chief”, and continually attempt- ing to monopolize the conversation of the hostess by propounding to her some problem in metaphysics, or, with a condescending air, explaining a geometrical proposition. No group would be complete without, the military man, the man who is ready to face the cannon’s mouth and to die for his country whenever called on. This place is filled at our table by “Bob”. During an expedition of more than a year he has conquered the fairest portion of Ilollan(d). However, we venture to say that he will need all his soldierly courage to face the potentate of that land to perfect, the title to what he claims to be his. Next, and no less important than either of the proceeding, is our artist, “Irish”. “Irish” is the Kubelik of the N. I. and has, although unsuccessfully, attempted to put the entire school to sleep in chapel. He would undoubtedly have succeeded in this had not the rest been aroused by the snoring of “Doc” Sehutz. Unlike the other members, “Irish’s” table manners are abominable. He often passes his plate across the table, nay, even sometimes without noticing that it is turned upside down! Although we never found “Irish” to be religious he continually insists that Sunday is for worship only. As the courses in a Dacotah Hall dinner end with desert, so will this spon- taneous burst of literary enthusiasm. We have only three more names to mention, Mable, Augusta and Lena. “Chief” as usual started out to make a hit with each of them. Lena, however, felt deeply insulted at his approaches and “Chief” found to his surprise that here was a girl that could withstand his charms. Augusta, however has been entirely carried away by the polished enchantments of Chief”. Mable has been approached by both “Chief” and “Bob”, and, at this writing, her affections seem to be divided equally between them. By One of US.
