A Tale of the Seniors President.......................Henry G. Hot Vice-President..................Zaidkk I. Bovee Secretary.......................Ella Reiss Treasurer.......................Alice Bradseth Vc who believe in the Seniors, who live and who reign and are niigluy Ye who have faith in the class that has toiled and reached the tall summit. List to the annals of Seniors, all rich with the glories of conquest. List to the tale of the Normal, the merry-go-round of teachers. In the thriving city of Oshkosh, on the shores of the blue Winnebago, Massive, towered, dark the famous Normal of Oshkosh, Stood on the wooded campus. West flowed the Fox ‘mong the timbers, Rippling a song of the North and the bay, and away to the southward Tall factories rose and spired churches, and above in the sky lands White clouds sailed the blue, and the great god of light Smiled on the scene below, the home of the good and the happy. There in the halls of the Normal reigned the Seniors of prowess; Rich in fame were these maidens and men, for their strength, and their wit, and their wisdom. Such as none lx re who had gone o’er the way they were going. Modest were they, of quiet demeanor, and many observing Knew not of their deeds nor dreamed they abounded in learning. Solemnly thru the halls walked the Senior girl, and the Juniors Paused in their talk, to see the l x k she assumed to warn them. Silently day by day in the sunny study of Seniors Toiled the diligent maids, the pride and hope of Wisconsin. Meekly, one by one. thru the ranks of diligent maidens Passed the youths, short and tall, the manliest men of the Normal. So dwelt together in peace, these rosebud and sunflower Seniors. Dwelt in the grace of Miss Peake, and in her found their star. True was she and kind, the gentlest woman among them. Titled to guide and inspire to wisdom and virtue. Twenty times has the moon risen and set. and now in these last hours Sadly look they out on the slipping day of their greatness. Soon in the misty past to lie silent and dreaming. Musing they falter. Now to think on the life they are leaving. T'.rc it has vanished for aye in the shifting view of life’s canvas. All is ended s x n. the joy. and the toil and the sorrow; All the striving for truth, the sleepless unrecompensed digging. And as they turn away from the stately towers of Normal. Sadly they’ll heave a sigh and say. Alma Mater, we love thee.” Page twenty-four
