• MtSS Fisher Gymnastics Margaret Ellen Fisher came to the Normal this year from Massachusetts. Site is a graduate of tlie Boston High School and Normal School of Gymnastics, besides taking a course in Physics and Chemistry in the Institute of Technology. From 1904-1907 she was assistant instructor in Physical Training in the Bridgewater (Mass.) State Normal School. For one so young, we consider her achievements quite remarkable, namely,—within this short school year she has examined the hearts of all the boys, and the eyes and brains of all the girls. The results are not published. Miss Ewing Assistant in Drauring Constance Lee Ewing came to the Oshkosh Normal last fall. She was educated in the public schools of I .os Angeles, and attended the Normal school there. In 1903. she graduated from Pratt Institute. Before coming to Oshkosh, she taught at Brownell Hall. Omaha, Neb. Strange to say (?), Miss Ewing would have ofttimes been mistaken for a student save for a certain unmistakable dignity which marks the brows of our worthy faculty, and which she so faultlessly carries. Miss Mark History Elvira E. Mark was educated in Illinois, graduating from the State Normal and University, and her record boasts of wide experience in teaching. Shortly before coming here ••lie was instructor in the Albion Normal School of Idaho. If our impressions are mutual. Miss Mark will desire to continue another year with us. Mr. McMillan Algebra Walter MacMillan, commonly called ‘'Pete by the student body, is experiencing a year of Normal life as instructor in Algebra. He was educated in the Illinois University and Monmouth College. Together with his college airs, and the fact that he is the only unmarried man in our faculty, lie has become the center of attraction among the girls. Miss Cun (Iiff Vocal Music Hannah B. CunditT joined the ranks of our illustrious instructors in February, taking the place of Barbara C. Moore in the Musical department ’ Her first studying was done in Detroit, later in Chicago, New Vork. and London, Ontario. After teaching music for several years in the public schools, she took up children’s operatic work, which carried her to California. Nebraska. Minnesota. Missouri, and Canada. Previous to coming to Oshkosh she had charge of the largest Catholic choir in Madison for two years, and last year was soloist in the Congregational choir of that city. Though we sorely feel the loss of Miss Moore, we thoroughly appreciate and enjoy the artistic work done by Miss CundifT. but we are not yet able to follow her through the mazes of her wondrous genius, by which those “full, round tones” arc produced. Miss Breitkreutz Clerk Our new clerk is one of those good-natured, helpful, and pleasant individuals who always make themselves welcome wherever they go. Whether on an excursion, in the office, or wherever she may be. she is always right there. The council has found that to send a boy to the office to study is no longer a punishment. Many are taking lessons in stenography watching the clicking keys of the typewriter ( ?). We certainly are fortunate in our new clerk Miss Beye Composition Marion Beye, a graduate of Smith College, is the last to have been added to our list of instructors, haying come here at the beginning of the spring quarter to fill the position left vacant by the illness of Miss Barden. She was born in Chicago, and made her home there for many years. She has taught in the Port Huron High School and the I-a Salle-Peru Township High School. 23
