WISCONSIN 191 O HAST WlNCi GVMNASirM FOREWORD IN our office near the chemical laboratory we Juniors have worked long and faithfully upon The Quiver, which we now present to you. Our access to chemical compounds has induced us to neutralize the vitriol of our jokes, and we feel sure that no one will find them caustic. A close analysis of the contents of this work will show it to be an alloy of wit and wisdom, wherein the salt of facts is made more savory by being compounded with imagination. Our ambition, when reduced to its elements, will be found to consist of a desire to please combined with a determination to create an annual worthy of our school.

Youmans Resident Regent Superior Whitewater Eau Claire River halls Stevens Point Platteville La Crosse Milwaukee Waukesha INTERIOR OF GYMNASIUM I NEW POWER HOUSE PRESIDENT JOHN A. H. KEITH T his first one. Samanthy. is a picture of President John A. H. Keith. He is a smart man! You can't catch him on anything—or if you do one day. by the next he’ll know more about the subject than you know or ever will know. He has what he calls “the right attitude toward knowledge. He was born in Homer, Illinois, but he didn't stay there long, for his father was a Methodist minister, and he was always moving around. Little John wasn’t a strong child, so he didn’t get along very fast in school until he was about fifteen years old. After that he became well and strong and he went right along. He taught in the country schools for two years, and then he went to the school at Normal. Illinois. He finished his course there, although he stopped one year to be principal of a village school, where he supervised teachers old enough to have been his mother. After graduating from Normal he was gi en charge of the Grammar Department of the Training School for two years, and then he went to Harvard. When he got his degree he went to DeKalb. where a Normal school was just opened. He taught Pedagogy and Psychology there for seven years. Then he went to Normal. Illinois, as head of the Training Department. He stayed there till he came to Oshkosh in 1909. I tell you. he’s a magnetic talker. He stands on the rostrum and explains some difficult thing to these students, and when he gets through, he says. You see? and they all sec -or if they don’t they are dunces. H. S. Youker You think you’d like to go to school to this man, Martin. I think you would, too. He doesn’t teach the little people very much himself. He has the supervision of the practice teachers who leach in the training department. This is Mr. Youker's first year at the Oshkosh Normal. It has been a very pleasant year for all who know him. lie is a graduate of Wisconsin University. After teaching for some years he returned to the University to get his degree. From there he went to the University of Chicago to do graduate work. In that quiet way of his he jest worked right along. He was suiwr-vising principal at Brodhead for two years. From there he went to Grand Rapids in this state, where he was superintendent of schools. He remained there a considerable time. When the Oshkosh Normal needed another teacher it was fortunate enough to secure Mr. Youker. Rose C. Swart Now we come to the picture of Miss Rose Swart. She is one of those women who jest make use of every obstacle to rise to something higher. From her early childhood, spent in Pennsylvania, she has always made use of every opportunity. She came to this state when ten years of age, and when fifteen began teaching. She took the greatest interest in her work, and spared no effort to succeed. After teaching in the district school, she went to the city and taught in both the primary and grammar grades. Former President AI bee heard of her work, and secured her as teacher for the primary grades. Later she taught geography, German, and Theory in the Normal, after which she was made supervisor of the practice work. We wish that each one had the power to work as faithfully as she has, and prove of so much value to others. She has prepared many teachers for Wisconsin, and each one looks back with a feeling of deepest gratitude to the woman whose word and deed has so nobly guided him. Emily F. Webster Yes, Marthy, here's Miss Webster. A good picture of her it is. too. She was born in Ohio, but came to Wisconsin when only five years old. Her early schooling was in the district school, and afterward she took a course at the New Normal at Oshkosh. After graduating, she was asked to Ik Latin teacher at the Normal, and later she was made head of the Mathematical department. The students tell me that Miss Webster is famous all over the state for the way she can teach Arithmetic, coach a basketball game, and play the part of a Red Cross nurse. She can tell a story that will jest make you double up with laughing, and give a little sermon that will do much to disturb your conscience. In fact, she is one of the most all 'round women I've ever met. Lydon W. Briggs I remember when this one was a little boy. Samanthy. Whenever his mother wanted him she went where there was the biggest crowd of little girls—and she always found him. He was a naughty little fellow then, but lie got over that when he grew up. although lie never outgrew his liking for the girls. He must have found it pretty lonesome in the army—Oh, yes, lie fought in the Civil W ar. He learned how to laugh there. You ought to see him when some one springs a joke. His shoulders go up and down faster and faster and his face is the color of one of your red poppies, Samanthy. He is treasurer at Normal now. and teaches law—school law, I think they call it. As they say, he is the youngest acting man up there. oir. lAJjOjLi Mary E. Apthorp Ah, here is Mary Minerva’s picture. How she did study Latin! She Inrgan to enjoy her acquaintance with Caesar and ergil at Iowa College: this ripened into friendship abroad, and she finally dedicated herself to their lasting worship at Chicago University. For many years now, she has been trying to get more followers for Caesar at the Oshkosh Normal. She has succeeded. too. but sometime ago she received a great shock when she overheard a young woman say, Would that I’rut us had killed Caesar e'er Caesar learned to write. One who is such an admirer of the old Roman should have gained some of their dauntless courage, but I'm afraid she hasn’t. Once Miss Apthorp was with a numtier of the Faculty, and it chanced that they must go through a field where a most harmless looking cow was feeding. When Mary saw that cow she went just as fast as ever she could for the fence, which she wasted no time in climbing. The old cow hadn't moved, but nothing could persuade Miss pthorp to rejoin the party while they stayed in that field. Page Seventeen Walter C. Hewitt Aiul here's Mr. Hewitt. Samanthy. I met him when lie first came to Oshkosh. He’s a fine man. Such resolution as he has! When he was only a young lad teaching in country schools, he spent three years working over a hard problem that an old man had given “to catch the teacher. He finally worked it. although he had to study an entirely new phase of mathematics to do it—Maxima and Minima. Not that he wasn't prepared to teach—he was a graduate of the State Normal College of Michigan. He taught ten years in Michigan and then was appointed secretary of the World’s Fair Educational Commission of Michigan. Then President AI bee met him and persuaded him to come to (). S. 1 don’t know what they would do without him—he always says the right thing at the right time. He’s the poet, orator, and wit of the Faculty. He’s very fond of apple pie. I suppose if he has his wish he will he transported to a region where “all the world is apple pie. Josephine Henderson So. Martha, you are anxious to know who this serene one is. are you? It’s Miss Henderson. She teaches the students how to write compositions. Hard task it must Ik. . I reckon, but she is just the one to do it. for she learned how on The Chautauquai! Magazine. Do I sup|K se she ever used slang or giggled? Why. bless you. child. I’ve heard some say, as knows, that she was one of the regular “cut ups” in school. No. one wouldn’t think it to see her now in the Faculty circle. She graduated at a Normal over in Pennsylvania, and then from Allegheny College. After several years’ experience she came to Oshkosh. The Juniors say in subdued tones. Shall we ever he as calm as she? and the Seniors wistfully sigh. “Shall we ever Ik able to teach rhetoric Lillian G. Kimball Yes, this one is Lillian Kimball. You and she were schoolmates, weren’t you? My, but there was a sight of difference between you! Her hair never flew around wildly as yours did. and her hands were always clean. hen you wanted to make mud pies she would always say. That will never do. surely.” After she finished the Oshkosh High School she taught in Oshkosh • for a few years, and then went to Yassar College, and later to Chicago University. After teaching in St. Paul, she came to Oshkosh to teach in the High School, and a little later liecame an English teacher at the Normal. My the way, Samanthy. do you think there is anything in that report that Miss Kimball intends leaving the teaching profession? Frederick R. Clow Samanthy, did you ever notice how many of the men who amount to something are sons of farmers? Here's this picture of Frederick Clow now just brought to mind that he was a farmer boy. A Minnesota farm at that, when the country was new, and ncighlors, schools, railroads, towns (I might add. trees) were few and far between. I rememlier what a likely little chap he was. Wonder if boys then didn't use to have more grit than they have now-a-davs. Leastways they got what they aimed to get: and if you don’t believe it. just recollect how Frederick Clow went off to grammar school ten miles away—graduated from High School—taught country school—shoved on to Carlcton College—edited a country newspaper—and then, not yet satisfied, went after some more of that book-learning at Harvard. Relieve he got some letters hitched onto his name liefore he finished. What did he do after leaving Harvard? Why, he came to Oshkosh and has been there ever since. Folks here hope lie’ll keep right on instructing 'em in history, sociology, general thinkology, etc., but I’ll never be satisfied until 1 see him foremost of the Philosophers and Thinkers of the country. as Miss Henderson does: Page Eighteen Ellf.n F. P. Pf.ake Yes. Marthy, this is Miss Peake, who teaches literature. No, she wasn't always fond of liooks. When she was a little girl site wanted to keep a menagerie, and later she grieved because she could not he a soldier. However, her attention soon turned to literature; and now when she tells a story of a fierce dragon to a Senior class, they listen just as you would, Marthy. Every member of her class really enjoys iiis work. When studying Shakespeare or Browning, she takes them all with her to England, where she received her early education. When a young woman, she went to the University of New Brunswick, and she had post-graduate work at Chicago. Then she taught in Massachusetts and New York, and after awhile came away out here to Wisconsin to teach in a little town up north. Oconto, and from there she came to the Oshkosh Normal. B. Mack Dresden Now we come to die jolly German professor. It. Mack. the students call him. He spent his boyhood iii Germany and had an excellent education when he came to America. Arriving here he entered Baldwin I Diversity in Ohio. After finishing there he came to the Oshkosh Normal; but, still not satisfied, he went to the University of Worcester in Ohio. A few years of experience as a teacher, and he was called to Oshkosh to teach German at the Normal. Teaching German isn’t his only accomplishment. When a play is given, there is no one who knows how to apply the rouge so well as Mr. Dresden. He has become a necessity in that school. When a student is in need of sympathy or advice, he is always sure of just the right kind in the right quantity if he goes to Mr. Dresden. Harry R. Fling Here's a man from Maine! Don't you remember. Samanthy. that we were visiting morning exercises when Mr. Fling was telling the students how horses came to look as they do? He has the Eastern accent, hut lie also has the Eastern smartness, for he graduated from Bowdoiu College. Then, after he had taught a few years he studied in the University of Minnesota and also in the University of Chicago. Next lie spent three years in research work in Massachusetts. I don’t know exactly what research work is. but if it is studying plants and bugs and animals, lie has spent more than three years at it. I'm told that when he was a little curly-headed fellow—oh. yes. Marthy. lie had long golden curls ,when lie was a boy—he used always to Ik- chasing grasshoppers up in Maine. He has been here thirteen years now, and seems to he contented; hut I do think his ambition is to l� ecome a spiritualist that lie mav talk with Darwin and Wallace. Frank E. Mitchell What’s this sticking out from under this picture? 1 declare if it isn’t a page of Frankie Mitchell's old diary. Here, read it. Samanthy: Sept, jo—I’m 13 years and , old and 1 live in Indiana which is pink on the map hut it ain't pink because it is most all yellow sand. I have to go to school most of the time. 1 can lick all the fellers only bud Simons and he is J times as big as me. Sept, j2—Today I got licked cause I didn’t no all the captals of the states. 1 told teacher that was not no geography lesson, and she said it was mine. Then I said I would not Ik- so mecn as to make kids learn captals then she licked me but when school was out I nearly licked hud Simons anyhow. Sept. 25—Went fishing for trout. Bully good luck. Sept. 26—Ma made me have my picture took today hut I was mad cause tlu-r was some goats in the yard and I wanted to watch them worser than have my picture took. He hasn't lost some of his tricks yet. He likes to fish as well as ever, and lie has his old grudge against capitals. He kept it through his course at the University of Indiana, and since he has had the chair of Geography at Oshkosh. I was visiting his class one day. and he changed his chair for the desk—and quoted Scripture and Shakespeare—well. I was fairly amazed. He surely is a smart man, and what's more, lie has lots of common sense. Livingston L. Summers Here’s the man from Iowa who loves to handle the saw and hammer. When he was just a little fellow, he was asked what he wanted Santa Claus to bring him. A hammer and LOTS of nails.” There was one other thing he liked, too. Both tastes grew faster than he did. The first one he developed at Pratt Institute, the second course there did not satisfy him, so Mr. Summers studied Manual Training in London, Paris, and N’aas, Sweden. Then he was supervisor of Slovd work in Cuba until he came to Oshkosh. Since he has been here, he has developed another taste—that tor roast corn. I heard lie had a corn roast for the Faculty out at his lake-side cottage, and he won the prize himself for eating the most ears. A soon as he gets money enough so he can afford it, he is going to quit teaching and buy a farm. All he will raise on it will he sweet corn, and then he will have a party out to a corn roast every night. I don't think that he could make people like him any better than they do now. because every one you talk to says. Summers is all right. Maurice H. Small Here is Maurice Small! You remember. I told you about him. He’s had an awful lot of eddication. He went to Colby University and later to Clark University. He teaches psychology at Oshkosh now. What he doesn’t know about children isn’t known by any one else, 1 guess. If lie had his sav there wouldn’t be a child in all the country round who wasn’t having his full share of fun, and a chance in the world. I don’t see how that man ever has time for any recreation unless he finds his rest in change of occupation. Earl A. Clemens This one is Earl Clemens. They say he is one of the finest men in the school. I remember him. for he was a lively lad. although he did get tired of taking the cows to pasture and picking berries for market. He was rather fond of school in spite of the fact that he did play “hookey when the nuts were ripe down in the hack pasture. After finishing the district school at Clemensville and the Oshkosh High School, he went to nn Arbor, Mich. Later he taught physics and chemistry in Bay City and Detroit. Now. as I said, he is teaching chemistry in the Oshkosh Normal. I often tremble when I think of him using all those dreadful explosion things, but I suppose he knows how to handle them just as well as I know how to wash dishes. Allison Farley Now. Martha, here is Mr. Farley. He is one of the most active men 1 ever saw. And he fairly brings a student out of his chair when lie puts a question to him. One morning while visiting his class. I began to think that man was surely an animated interrogation point;” but suddenly he stopped with a, What do you thing of that, Mr. G.---?’’ And Mr. (i.----- got up as though the finger pointed at him was a magnet. Energetic? Yes. indeed, lie has been known to row a boat several miles with the anchor dragging, just to show how strong he is. W hat does he teach? Pedagogy and such things. The students say. it’s heaps of fun in Mr. Parley’s classes, but one learns a lot. He makes it so interesting if you study—and he can make it interesting, too, if you don’t. Page Twenty Ellis J. Walkf.r Now 1 want you to look carefully at this picture. There's a lot to admire in Miss Walker. They say she’s supervisor of practice in the Normal School. As a youngster she always took the lead. When the neighborhood children played soldier'’ and some l oy announced, 'Tin captain, she calmly said. All right, then I’ll be general.” Any one to get ahead of her either in word or deed must get up early in the morning. Whoever has practice with her always has a higher ideal when he has finished the work. Margaret E. Fisher And if here isn't Margaret Fisher. She likes to straighten people out! She was always an energetic little body. Folks say that when she was two years old she showed a will of her own by trying to jump overl oard on her way to Europe. I don’t know how true it is. but I do know that no one ever dictated to her. Throughout her school life in Ponkapoag village school. Roxbury High, and Boston Normal School of (iymnastics. she was always doing amazing things in athletics. She played many a good game of basketball, and lived through a good many hard knocks. Don’t you ever tell me that basketball isn’t a good game for girls. Look at Margaret Fisher, and you’ll see why. That Normal School at Oshkosh was mighty glad to have Miss Fisher step in and take charge of the gymnasium. She’s the good friend, comforter, nurse, and doctor of the students. May B. Moulton This one is their artist. Miss Moulton. I met her one time on one of my visits at the scIkm)I. and it did seem so good to talk with her. She made me feel just as though I'd always known her. I was real timid, you know, about talking of those pictures up in the Art room. But she told me considerable about the work, and I forgot myself entirely. It did my heart good when I discovered that she was bom at Xeenah. It seems from the time she was a little girl, she was always a draw in and a paintin’. Then as she grew up she went to—let me see—oh. yes. Art Institute at Chicago. After graduating there she came to Oshkosh to help teach art. Now what made me admire her was, that she wasn't satisfied to just sit down and say, Now, I have a good position. and 1 shall not lnuher about advancin’.” No. sir, instead of that, she went out East to Pratt, where she got more learning that ever in drawin . After that she was down at Aurora, in Illinois, but it wasn’t long before she came back to Oshkosh to take charge of the Art department. Hannah M. Cundiff Can't you guess who this is? That's right. Hannah Mathews Cundiff. Let me think—she was born way down in St. Joseph. Missouri, the daughter of a Confederate colonel. In the St. Louis kindergarten she began to study music. She hated the way it was taught, but you ought to have heard her when she was eight years old. She sang in public then and made every one hold his breath. Later while in New York City, Miss Cundiff was a member of the Festival chorus of twelve thousand who sang at the May Festival when Madam Patti sang daily. Yes, she has been very successful in many ways— as director of children's plays, as a soloist, and on the Chautauqua platform. Where is she now? Oh. she’s at the Oshkosh Normal School—has been there since 1908. She directs all the musical plays given, has charge of the music at opening exercises: and with the Glee Club and all the rest of the music in school, is kept pretty busy. Miss Cundiff makes all the students admire and respect her—in fact, she has only to smile and one and all lose their hearts to her. Puge Twenty-one 4 Louise F. Encking If here isn't Louise! Those students like her pretty well. It jest made me laugh to remember what some of them were telling me not long ago—how she looks at them when they get to “cutting up” in the library—and I shouldn’t wonder if she dees more than look sometimes. If she doesn’t then she’s not the Louise Encking I knew as a child. You needn’t smile—she was a wonder. The way she could read when she was jest a little midget! And the books she had! It was surprising. Natural as a duck to water, she took to the study of the language; and after her college course was completed, she travelled in foreign countries. It docs my heart good to learn that she is always willing to help any of the students look up material on any subject. The last time 1 saw her. i spied a new possession, which set me to wonderin’ how much longer she will Ik- helpin’ them. Anna I. Curtis Here's Irene Curtis, the girl who could always be heard, if not seen. She was a jolly soul, and whenever she was around there was no danger of things getting dull. At least, that's what her teachers ucsd to think. There wasn't a more thoroughbred tomboy in all that Iowa town, and what Irene Curtis couldn't do wasn't worth mentioning. Whenever anyone attempted t«� remonstrate with her she had a way of winning them with a tender lullaby or a charming ditty. Her singing saved her so many disasters that she finally began to realize what a good thing it was. and when she graduated from the High School she entered the Oberlin Conservatory of Music at Obcrlin. Ohio, to study music and incidentally to have a good time. Her good time did not end when she began to teach, and when she took up work in the Oshkosh Normal, life looked very agreeable to her. especially on the Faculty skating rink. But for all her fun. she loves to help, and no one who goes to her is ever turned away unaided. Nellie A. Smith Who is this, you ask. Nellie Adams Smith. She is one of the jollicst among the Faculty. She can sing, she can paint, she can dance. There isn't much of anything she can't do. She comes from Union City. Indiana, and the students say. The Hoosiers are alt right. She has studied music and drawing at several different schools, very successfully from all reports. Just now she is trying to show Normal students how to make nictures. Sakes. alive! They can see how pretty things look, but their brushes ami pencils just make daubs and awkward lines. I saw them working up there one day. Such looks of dismay I never saw. Miss Smith came along, laughed a little, showed them how to put in a little light S|K t here, a dab of color there, a little curve in the line, and beliold a satisfactory piece of work and a student's face wreathed in smiles. Walter W. McMillan Who's this? Coach McMillan. I remember him when he played bawl for the amusement of his parents and the neighbors, not for any grand-stand crowd. Yes. he went to school: graded, high, and college. No, he hasn't that scholastic air. but. as the boys say. that scholastic air doesn't carry the ball up the field or make a touchdown;” that's what he can do, and he knows how to inspire others to do likewise. He can teach algebra, too; and I've heard say he has learned to brew as tine a cup of tea as youVI wish to drink. Page Twi'Div-lwo Marietta Neff An interesting face, you say? Indeed it is. As a child, Marietta didn’t play like most children, but often we’d see her sitting in her little red chair sewing patchwork. At eight that quilt was done, and she had more time to read. One day I found her curled tip in a big chair reading Dante’s “Divine Comedy. Imagine a child reading that! Nothing was too deep for her. After she finished High School in St. Louis she went to Chicago University. Then she taught in a high school, and a year ago she came to the Oshkosh Normal to teach. The students say that she still loves deep things, and that some days they are simply stricken dumb at the wonderful way she has of saying things. Ruth G. Bagley Do you remember Ruth Bagley? She was a chubby little girl, and as droll as could be. Ruth was born in BufTclo, New York. Her early education was received at Worcester, Massachusetts, and her college course at Ann Arbor. Michigan. Yes. she has taught—first in Detroit, later in California, and last fall she came to Oshkosh, where she is teaching Knglish in the Normal School. She received her Master’s degree at the University of California, and Bachelor’s at Ann Arbor, Michigan. Miss Bagley says she can think of nothing more pleasant than to remain in Oshkosh and spend all her energies upon the students in the Country School Course, which she thinks is the finest course given. As for the students, they say they wish that Miss Bagley’s wish may Ik- granted. Pauline Bromberg Oh. yes! I rcmemlier Pauline Bromlnrg well. This is her picture. Why. when I was in Boston hardly twenty years ago, she was but a baby, and from what I have heard lately, she isn’t very big yet. Yet, little Pauline has a tine education. She went through the public schools of Boston, through the High School, then to Miss Simmons’ College for Girls, and graduated from the Boston Normal School of Gymnastics just last year. She must lie a good teacher, for people say it takes a rogue to catch a rogue, and she is one all right. You can just see the mischief in her eyes. In her Senior year in High School she was tardy seventeen times, and had a plausible excuse every time. But nobody is ever tardy in her classes if he can help it. She is a great favorite among—well, you can guess. Daisy M. Harner Well, here’s a new picture—Miss Harner. I remember now that the girls just can’t say anything too good of her. She is young and as sweet and kind a bodv as one could wish to meet. One of her friends told me that she began her schooling in the country; and judging from all she knows about tricks of country school children, 1 guess her teacher had all she could do. After a while she entered the Kansas State Agricultural College. After finishing her course, she taught chemistry there, and later in Norfolk. Virginia. In 1009 she came here to teach Domestic Science. My sympathies are with her. because I know what it is to teach school girls to cook, but she loves to do it. _ Her efforts don’t stop with the girls, either, for she has succeeded in teaching a numlier of Ik vs to make pic and tea. l UKe Twenty-three Frank A. Ferguson This young man is the teacher of Physics. One of the students told me that he is a very smart young fellow. He finished at High School and then went to Ferris Institute at Detroit. After that he studied pharmacy for a year and then entered the University of Michigan. He studied science there, and after he graduated he taught in Michigan, then in Ohio, then in the Solden High School, St. Louis, and from there lie came to the Normal. Mr. Ferguson is always at work, helping some one or trying new experiments. They say he's trying to make an air ship that is heavier than air. one which will fly. Hard task, 1 should think it would he. No doubt he will surely become as wealthy at this as did Marconi through his inventions. Emma Rund This young lady is Emma Rund. She was horn in Bessemer, Michigan. When she was just a little midgit she told all the children in the neighborhood how “The Goblins will git you” until none of them dared to go out in the dark. Then when she got older they were always wanting her for school entertainments and such like. Well, she finished High School and then went to the University of Michigan to study oratory. After she graduated, she taught a year, then went to Columbia School of Expression, and then to Bush Temple Conservatory in Chicago. She is a success at giving recitals, but the way she enters into school work up there at Oshkosh is wonderful. Aleida J. Pieters Another new teacher. You didn't know Aleida Pieters,Samanthy, did you? She has such a pleasant disposition that a person just enjoys getting acquainted. Her people were Dutch, making their early home in Holland. Michigan. Here she attended the graded school, and later the Preparatory School at Hope College. I remember how popular she was when she went out to teach in a district school. But she was not satisfied to stop at that, and when Downer College at Milwaukee was organized. Aleida Pieters was one of the first pupils. She read every spare minute (she had a knack of making spare minutes for such purposes) and wrote for the school paper, holding a prominent position on the staff. It was one of her girlhood dreams to be an author. This writing passion continued through the University of Michigan, but when she graduated and began to teach again, her time for writing grew less and less, until she finally drifted away from it. After a varied life in High School work she came to the Normal. Her life has been like a gipsy’s, roaming around from place to place. You can't beat the Dutch. They’re bound to get-around any difficulty, and I shouldn’t wonder if she'd take to writing some day, and quit the school teaching business. But she’ll always l e happy, and find time to make others happy. Lucy A. Potter Little Lucy Potter is the next one. She’s a pleasant little body. The students say. “Rare gifts come in small packages. Her wish as a child was to be a very tall, majestic-looking woman. She failed in that, but grew up as kind and obliging as she had wished to be tall. She’s a comfort to the Freshman. They feel that she isn’t so far above them that they dare not make their timid requests. She has always lived in Oshkosh, except for one while when she went away to the Wisconsin School of Library Science. Page Twenty-four Jennie G. Marvin Jennie was a happy little maid always ready for every bit of fun a-going. She always liked to play “make believe.” and all her Mother Goose rhymes and fairy talcs were acted out in that way. In every school entertainment she was wanted, for no one could be Cinderella or Red Riding Hood quite as well as she. This love for acting has followed her through life. If you want a treat just drop in on a day where there arc to he exercises in the Grammar room. If you do not leave at the close feeling that Miss Marvin is a wonder at training children in plays, you arc a queer person. Mary O’Keefe Is she Irish? Why, to he sure. A look at those eyes and that hair will settle that question. She was always a pet. We could tell from the first what kind of a woman she would he. You know she would sit up in that baby buggy, and with her eyes and hands darting in the same direction she would just make everyone mind her and everyone wanted to. No one dared resist her fiery look or the impetuous stamp of her foot. People say. “What the girl is, so the woman will be.” and after visiting the intermediate department 1 can tell you that is true. She rules those children with a rod of iron, but it is a human rod. with her eyes, now twinkling, now reproachful; with a heart now rightfully hard, now merciful, now sympathetic; ami with a mind broad enough to grasp the all-sided meaning of human nature. Elizabeth Stevens Now we come to a tiny Connecticut lady, Elizabeth Stevens. She’s almost as small as Miss Bromberg, but her heart is big enough to take in all the primary children in Oshkosh, 1 believe. She was so determined to do the best kind of teaching that after finishing a training school, she took a post graduate course for supervising, and a kindergarten course at the Potsdam Normal. Then she taught at Bridgeport, Connecticut, and in 1902 she came here to Oshkosh. I tell you those children mind her. She is awful nice to them, but they know when to stop. They like her so well, you know that they don’t want to displease her. Everyone knows she is one of the best primary teachers in Wisconsin. Faye Henley You think you would like this one, Martin ? You’d be a queer little girl if you didn’t. Those little kindergarten children up at the Normal all love Miss Henley. After she graduated from the Mailman Training School for Kindergartners at La Porte, Indiana, she did some work at Teachers’ College, Columbia University. She then taught in La Porte and Attica. Indiana, ami also in Newark. New Jersey. Next she came to Oshkosh, and has made every one love her for her sweetness. I guess kindergarten work is all she cares for. and for the sake of the children I hope she will keep at it. Pag . Twonty-flve Nettalie Boucher Yes, Samanthv. perhaps you did know Natalie before. She went to this school herself for four years. She is very tall ami stately, with dark eyes that make many a student green with envy. They tell me that she was born in Wisconsin at Osceola. You know where it is? She has attended a number of schools. She went to Carleton Academy in Minnnesota. and she has been at our University in Madison, the University of Chicago, and Columbia University. Now she is Miss Marvin's assistant in the Grammar room. Gertrude P. Morehart Here is the woman who takes care of the second primary children. She is a serious-minded woman who knows just how to manage little children. She is well-fitted for the task. too. for she is a graduate of the Minnesota State Normal School. She wanted to become still smarter, so she went to the University of Chicago. If experience makes a good teacher, she must l� e an excellent one, for she taught in Minnesota, then she was called way off to Arizona, but finally she came back to Racine, Wisconsin, and from there to the Oshkosh Normal. Mrs. Mabel A. Riordan I remember this one when she was a curly-haired little girl. She was a sweet child! She never got peevish, though up to the age of ten years she never walked a step. No. she wasn’t a cripple—she hopped, skipped, jumped, and ran, but never walked. How she longed to l e the little girl who wore the spangled dress and rode the pony in the circus! When she got older she entered the Oshkosh Normal School and forgot almut the circus girl because she wanted to be a jx etess. She was so earnest a student that she surprised every one who knew her. After she finished her course she taught for some time. Now she is the clerk at the Normal, and she has kept the good habit of never getting angry. Best of all. she still has an ambition. I was talking with her yesterday, and she said that she’d like to live in a little farm house, half veranda, and keep cows and chickens. 1 guess she will have it if she makes up her mind. She usually does get what she wants. George A. Foster The man in the office,” Foster, is the next one. He was l orn up in Florence, Wisconsin. After finishing High School he decided to take a business course, although he did have some thoughts of studying for the ministry. Not that he didn’t have enough patience, though. I certainly believe that one needs more patience in the office than in the other professions. I stopped in the other day, and the telephone calls alone would keep a person busy. One minute he was to see that Thomas wore his rubl� crs home, or that Miss Blank’s dressmaker wanted her to remember the samples.” Then he had to go down stairs to the Manual Training rooms or up in the Attic” to Mr. Briggs’ room. But they do say that he always has time to admire the girls— and boys, too. of course. I’aif Twviily-slx Evan Vincent Here is one who has almost as much to do with the running of that school as our President himself. He has had charge of the building since 1893. He came from W aterloo, New York. At first the building was not so large, and he could do the work himself, but since that time there have been several additions to the building, and of course his duties have increased. But no matter how many herct are employed to do the work. Mr. Vincent inspects everything, carefully. There is always something for him to attend to. It's a call from the office or from the library, or a dozen from various members of the Faculty. Then some girl can’t get her locker open, and Mr. Vincent goes to the locker room to wrestle with the obstinate lock. What would the students do without him when it is time to give a play? No one else can manage the curtain. No one else can find all the stage furniture. No one else knows the wonders of the store room. The former students say, it wouldn’t seem like the same school if. when they come back, they didn't hear Mr. Vincent's cheery. “How-do-you-do ?’’ Lathrop W. Vosburc Now I come to the end of my album and this last picture. Samanthy. is that of Mr. Vosburg, one of the best matured men up there, too. It's a good thing he is. especially in cold weather, as he has charge of the heating arrangements in that building, .vfaybe you think that isn't much work. This being engineer has its disadvantages. All is very nice in warm weather, but when a sudden cold snap comes, and the mercury goes down. down. Then’s when Mr. Vosburg has to be careful or his own temperature will go up. up. Calls come from all over the building, More heat, please. Mr. Engineer. All the reply heard is. ‘A cs. What is said after the receiver is hung up no one knows but the little dog who is his constant Companion. Page Twenty-seven TIIK HOAD The road of Youth runs straight away. Away, and up toward the Eastern skies; It is the highway wide and firm. And its Joys are the Joys of Paradise. Of Paradise, ere thistles grew. Or Youth, of pain and travail knew; Ere Earth was curst, or hearts grew sere. Ere flaming sword, or Cherubim. And yet I fancy, there is not one. Who weakly sighs for an Eden. gone. The path of Years, hath many a turn. Narrow and dark, with rock and thorn; When the wounded soul doth scarce outlive I he dull slow coming of the morn. Yet out of the depths of the tortuous road. Of starless doubt, and sullen skies. Comes nobler Joy than Eden gave. Sweeter than Youth and its Paradise. A nobler Joy than the Joy of sense. For Life has a sacred recompense In the jagged thorns we have trodden down. Or silently worn as a mocking crown. Though for the laurel, cypress be Ours, and at last Gcthscmcne. Yet whether the road runs in or out. 'That path alone leads up to God. That path alone is sanctified. Which night and day hath been well trod. W. C. Hewitt.

It was started by the girls of the Senior class for the purpose of studying current events. With a membership of about forty earnest, hard-working students, some ven interesting programs have been rendered. The roll-call, which is answered by an item of news, is instructive and entertaining. We have had at each meeting three ten-minute papers on such subjects as “The English Budget,” The Eight Against Cannonism.” Evolution of the Flying Machine,” Halley's Comet,” and the Ballinger-Pinchot Controversy,” followed by five minutes' discussions, which were led by Miss Encking. The result has been that the members have had a more intelligent interest in the events of the day. as recorded in the newspapers and magazines.

Each week the organization meets for the purpose of discussing current events, and of interesting its members in the affairs of the present day. It is needless to say that the Club has realized its purpose. One noticeable and interesting fact regarding the members of the Current Topics. Club is that their reading habits invariably change after they have enrolled in the club. They substitute the “Outlook, “The Atlantic Monthly and other magazines of high merit for the home newspaper, and they give their attention to Barbarous Mexico. the “Insurgents.” or Taft’s Administration.” instead of to the gossip from Grigsby's Corners. However, this is not the only purpose of the Club, for at each meeting a period is set aside for Parliamentary Drill. Though the Club is not a literary organization, it is nevertheless giving its members facility in public speaking, and it is greatly improving their powers of intelligent conversation upon topics of world-wide interest and significance.

Reporter for I he Advance Emma Buchholz Sibyl Davis Paul Neverman Li lie Buchholz Mary Birr Ida Kiesow At the close of the fifteenth year the Deutsche Kreis can proudly say that the character of the work the very best been has. W ith a complete membership has it earnestly striven the programs to a higher standard to raise, and its efforts have not in vain been. During the year have we a successful study of Gothe, Schiller, and Heine, as well as of places and events of interest in Germany made. The Kreis has a rare treat had. to have heard Franz Kirchner, a reader and actor of great merit. We felt highly honored to some of the selections listen to be able, which he before Kaiser W ilheld II rendered has. No less im| ortant were the Declamatory Contest and the Annual Christmas Party. If a German, who had just from the Fatherland come, had the Music room on Christmas Eve entered, had Die W’acht Am Rhein,” and Die Lorelei with so much feeling to sing heard, and oi the fragrant coffee and spicy Pffefferkuchen partaken had. then would he himself at home felt had. Formerly had the Kreis a Hill and a Peak(e). Now. has it only a Reis (rise), but it still clings to its banquets, where they lioufi)!lion and Huhn (spring chicken) serve. In spite of the fact that they with the Messer (knife) eat. yet have they many Joyce (joys). Unfortunately has the Kreis Xeverman. It is located at Dresden's, where it is by a Schafer (shepherd) watched and by a Bridgfefmdn protected. It is by Plante and Buchholz (beech-wood) surrounded. They make much use of a Meyer (steward), a Schmidt, a Weber, and an Erdman, who for the graves cares, which to the early struggles of the Kreis testify. Though it a doubting Thomas contains, is it yet not Krocht (cracked), for occasionally become its members so boisterous, that it necessary is to say Schmeichel'' (Sch! Meichcl). Thus we see. that the Kreis from without, as well as from within protected is, and its germ to thrive continue will, until we at last an organization in everv school of the state have shall.

Several of the girls who wished to keep in touch with the history of the day organized a Current History Club. The membership is limited to twenty members. Only Freshman and Sophomore girls are admitted. The purpose of the Curcrnt History Club, which meets every alternate Saturday evening, can be inferred from its name. The programs consist of four of the most important events that occurred during the two weeks preceding the meeting. Page Ninety-seven BROWNING 1TUV OFFICERS President ...... Secretary-Treasurer ....

This year the Club has made a study of the monologue. The theme of the year's work has been “Courage,” and The Power Developed by Overcoming Obstacles, as expressed in the following lines: ’Tis better youth should strive through acts uncouth Toward making, than repose on aught found made. “Why stay we on earth unless to grow? I was ever a lighter, so one light more.

While the usual activities have been engaged in with characteristic vigor and earnestness, their number and variety have been unusual. Athletic spirit has been keen throughout the year and has resulted in a most creditable showing in this field. Class contests have been entered into with enthusiasm and the school teams have been loyally supported at all times by the student body. Oratory occupied a position of unusual prominence this year because of the State and the Inter-State contests being held here. All connected with the school may well feel proud of the manner in which our institution handled these two events. But with still greater pride do we look at the work of the year in debate. An unusually heavy task was attempted in sending out three teams to contest with other Normal Schools, and our gratification is therefore the greater that each team returned a victor. Such results demonstrate the high standard of work maintained by our literary societies. The social activities of the school have been fostered by the splendid new gymnasium which, in its short existence, has been the scene of many delightful receptions and parties. I he dancing class, organized this year, was a decided success, and the six dancing parties were never before so well attended and so thoroughly enjoyed. The growth of the school is indicated to some extent by the growth of the faculty; three additions being required by the increasing labors of the Training and Gymnastic departments and by the establishment of the Domestic Science course. This course, in the first year of its operation. has won a high place for itself in the regard of all connected with the school. The purchase of land for school gardens and the building of the new power plant represent the material growth of the school. Several important changes have been inaugurated in the school administration. A new and up-to-date filing system has been established in the office, whereby student records and other official information is made immediately available. The two-year Country School Course has had its first year’s trial and is a pronounced success. There can be no doubt that the Normal School in offering this preparation for district school teachers is filling a long-felt want and is contributing greatly to the betterment of rural education. Another important change is the abolishment of the old Elementary Course. This action was taken by the Regents at their mid-year meeting and. henceforth, there will be no new entries for the Elementary Certificate. In view of all the foregoing, the school year, just closing, may indeed be regarded as an eventful one. E. A. C. Page One-hundred Four President ....

I hough having a small, active membership, the school at large are associate members. Early in the year the constitution of the association was revised, providing in part for the election of debating teams, if not chosen on time by preliminaries. Under this provision the Whitewater and Illinois teams were selected by a board composed of faculty and students. On February 29, the local oratorical contest was held. The work of the six contestants was of a high order. The successful orator received the hearty support of the school at the State contest when Oshkosh, though not winning a place, still acquitted herself honorably. The debating season was opened with great promise by the splendid work of our team at Whitewater. This was followed by the victory at Stevens Point, and completed at Normal. Illinois, making three consecutive victories for Oshkosh Normal. Next year will bring us an additional amount of debate work. Besides the two debates within the state, we shall be called upon to furnish two teams for the Illinois-Indiana-Wisconsin triangular contest. This will require a careful selection of contestants in order that each team may have good representatives. Reginald Sanders The Experiment of Democracy First Place Albert A.

PaKo One-hundred Thirty WHAT NORMAL MEANS TO A OKADUATK It was a peculiar experience that came to the writer when the above question of just what the Normal has meant to him was first put. accompanied by the request that the answer be a written one. It seemed that the reply must of necessity be either very incomplete or else extremely lengthy. To add to the difficulty of the situation, there was the ever-threatening danger of bing trite. But analysis narrowed the scope of the question wonderfully, and as definiteness took the place of vague generalities, a few facts stood out above all others, about which all else might well be grouped. Of the inestimable value that the Normal training has been as a means of laying the foundation for a broad and extended culture, I shall not write, since others more able have done this far better than I could ever hope to do. Neither shall I do more than mention the opportunity for that development in athletics and in public speaking so essentially necessary for eminent success in the present day. for the subject is so often handled that there is but little which is new upon it. The association with men and women and the formation of friendships with them which last through life can only be experienced to be appreciated. The technical training that one receives, invaluable as it is. forms but a small part of the things one may get from the Normal—a truism so often repeated that it is sometimes lost sight of. The point which I wish to emphasize in particular, however, is none of these things. It is rather that of the association with one or two Faculty members and the subsequent friendship that is none the less lasting for being formed unconsciously. It is after all but a continuation of the tendency to admire and respect one under whom we are studying, that is present with all of us from the day we enter Kindergarten to the day we leave the University for the last time. In Normal, as elsewhere, we very seldom appreciate and often fail utterly even to recognize this thing of which we are speaking until we are away from the institution for good. I think we can safely say, however, that when past the High School period there is an increasing tendency to choose and recognize the worth of those with whom we are thrown in contact. Particularly is this true when one begins to specialize in a department of knowledge, and is thus in more intimate relation with fewer men. As students, we admire and imitate them, and as graduates we ever respect and honor them. Not that this is not true earlier than our Normal School days, but here as nowhere in our course before, we are compelled to choose from among the many members of the Faculty those with whom we shall do the major part of our work. How many times does it happen that an individual selects a department which eventually becomes his life work solely because of a personal friendship and regard for a teacher of that branch away back when he first began to specialize! As an undergraduate it is almost impossible to realize the full significance of these relationships. While we are actually in school we are too prone to forget, if indeed we ever stop to think of the matter at all. that of all the people, students and Faculty alike, whom we meet daily in our work, but few will stay in our memory in the years to come. Some very few will never be forgotten—the rest will be a confused mass remembered only as a body of people with whom we were in school. And so I would pledge a toast to those few Faculty men and women with whom work was ever a pleasure, whose personal character was an inspiration, and whose memory will live in our hearts as long as life itself.

Page One-hnn«lre l Thirty-two TIIK AM IM ASSOCIATION The object of the Alumni Association is to foster organization among the graduates of the old Normal. Of course with such a large body so widely scattered and so diverse in occupation, a close organization is impossible. Often the graduates teaching in one city form local associations, as was done in Chicago. Indianapolis, and Iron Mountain. The fact that many of the schools are still in session commencement week prevents many of the graduates from attending the annual meeting of the association; but in spite of this there are plenty of loyal members who, when June comes, take the time to leave the office, the work-shop, and the teacher’s desk to come back to greet the Faculty and their old friends. New friendships are made with the younger graduates and old times are talked over. At their meeting and the banquet they tell of the “airly days, as Miss Webster did at the banquet of 1908. Others will tell of struggles with the red-inked practice plans, student pranks, and stories of the teachers to which distance has lent enchantment. Last year a formal constitution was adopted, which now guides the business side of the organization, and an annual tax was laid. What an array of men and women there would be could all the alumni be gathered in one grand reunion! Think of the men and women teaching in the old Normal itself, at our universities, and those who have succeeded in art. and in the schools over the whole of Wisconsin.—yes, the United States. Besides, there are many who have left teaching and have succeeded in other vocations. All are members of the Alumni Association of the State Normal School at Oshkosh and true to the White and Gold. KXTRACTS FROM LKTTKRS One of the main virtues of the Oshkosh people is their depcndableness” and their willingness to co-operate with the supervising officials. This is a vital element in the successful carrying out of school work. Then. too. the Oshkosh people in the main exert a wholesome influence on school work in that they have a broad comprehension of the teacher's relation to her pupils. This makes them real friends of their pupils. They realize that their pupils, the bad as well as the good, are human beings whose future depends upon their treatment and their teaching of them. While the Oshkosh Normal is not alone in the matter of definiteness of instruction, yet her pupils are in the front rank in this respect. My course at the Oshkosh Normal taught me to work every day for at least three hours outside of school. I must say that all subsequent study has seemed play in comparison. It also taught me to concentrate my mind on the printed page. Now I can sit down and work out my daily problems on short notice. It develcped a habit for good reading and research work. It improved my English. Association with earnest workers had its beneficial effect, and certainly improved my insight into human nature. I’ajce One-hun lrcd Thirty-three ADVICK TO STITDKNTS Have as good a time as possible—without flunking.’’ Do not work for standings as much as for knowledge. Work the Faculty or they will work you.

Pago Ono-hun lr,iI Thirty-nix Pali-- One-hundred Thirty-seven The football season was a successful one in every way. Most of last year's men were back, and were ably supported by good new material. We made a highly creditable showing against the strongest state teams. The squad was consistent throughout the season, and not once did it let up on its good work, save the Lawrence game, which was marked by lax training, and may we say. a very slight attack of over-confidence, which really had infected all. Besides defeating one of the strongest High School elevens in Wisconsin, our squad played Carroll and Ripon to a hair’s breadth. Among the Normal Schools. Stevens Point was the only Normal team that we could meet. Throughout the season every one was in it for football, and no small share of credit for the record, should be given the student body for the excellent support and enthusiasm with which they followed the game and cheered our gridiron heroes. Let’s hope for a similar account in 1910. Wm. F. Schenke, Full Back Captain Come on, fellers ” Schenke is a full hack of par excellence,—fast, weighty, and plays the game consistently. His plunges tore holes in the line every time and “spilled tacklers right and left. Schenke. the shining light of Oshkosh,” said Beloit. He will be greatly missed in the hack-field next year. Arthur Whitcomb, Half Back Manager When Whitcomb appeared on the gridiron in football togs last fall it indicated that there was a good chance for us to have a winning team. The way he played at “Half in the game with the “Highs showed that the indications were right. Here is the man who knew how to use the cross play over tackle and gain by it. Weil, he could gain at any kind of play. He was fast, went low. hit hard, and knew where to go for an opening. That much of the credit of the various games was due to him was clearly shown by the recognition lie received from the side lines. His practice in football, his wit and work have made him a distinguished football player. Louis J. Martell. Half Back 1-ouis played the responsible position of left half back throughout the season. Me fought hard in each and every game, never willing to leave the field, though sometimes practically disabled. The way he went through the broken field for successive gains proved him fleet-footed and cool-headed. At tackling he was like a lion. I lie entire season he backed the line on defense like a young Thor.” His working the delayed pass made it a specialty for our team. He had a wonderful way of shaking off tacklers. Louis never slacked un a minute in a game, but played from start to finish. Martin Blank. Center Hunch is the man with athletic ability in its potential that cannot l e equalled by any other member of the team. The total extent of his skill and staying qualities on the gridiron are still unknown. His skill is illustrated by the wonderful one hundred yard dash he made in the Stevens Point game. This dash, which prevented Stevens Point from making their only touchdown of the season, will remain always in the minds of the anxious spectators, who cheered him on in his mighty run. as a sample of manly power and ability. George Coggins, Guard “Old George”—The man afraid of nothing! The harder the Opponent the harder he worked. Rushing through the line on defense is his strong point. Those who have suffered a fall or bump from his mad rushes” will agree in saying that lie is the stuff’ for a guard. George’s Irish shows itself occasionally, with the result that sometimes on the kickoff he has suddenly upset a non-law-abiding opponent, and left him sprawling on the ground gasping for wind. Arthur FlaNNAGAN. Quarter Back “Art Plannagan. the “midgit � i the ioo football squad, came to us from Menomonee Falls, where lie played quarter back and end for two seasons on the High School team. Although being the smallest man on the team he proved to be no novice at the game. From the quarter back position he directed the attack of the Normal team in a way that called forth the admiration of team-mates and spectators alike. His ability to handle the team was unquestionable. He was equally good at both offensive and defensive work, his tackling and running back of punts being the features of many games. Page Ont-hun lr ! Thlrty-nlno Joe Hayes. Guard This gritty Irishman, who played left guard, never in his foot-hall career failed to outcharge or hold his opponent. The harder the game the harder Joe fought and the more impossible it became to keep him from jumping on the backs of the opposing eleven. Fear to Joe was as foreign as victory was to the team at Appleton. George Lipp. Tackle He was there in every stage of the game. From his position at left tackle his broad, solid frame banished at once any fear of weakness in that part of the line. Wherever an opening was wanted and Lipp was called upon, he did his duty by opening up holes in the line that would permit of the passing through with a load of hay. He was on the sj� ot to pick up fumbles, and his great booting ability saved us from being scored on in several instances. Walter Leukel. Tackle Leukel. the husky tackle, was in a great measure responsible for the gains over the right side of the line. Making openings for full back plunges and spoiling interferences were his strong features.

Albert 1 rojahn, End Trojahn, the old war horse.” has played four years. The tirst year his plays on the second team attracted the attention of the coach. The following season he was given a chance on the first team and made good. During his football career at Normal he played both center and end. Last year he played end and was there with the goods. as many an opposing end can testify. Trojahn has played consistent football. l oth offensively and defensively, all through the four seasons. His place in the team next year will be hard to till. Page One-hundred Forty Edward Turner. Sub Quarter Back “Ed was not only a good quarter back, but our substitute half back and general utility man. He played bard and consistent ball at all times. This was his third year in the game, having played quarter on the second team for two years. Leslie Turner. Sub End Leslie, one of the youngest players, was not so young after all when taking his place in the line-up.” He was constantly alert and ready for any play that came his way. With another season of practice and play lie will undoubtedly prove to be among the Inst of our material for football. Harry Whitcomb. Sub Half Back Although only entering the game as a substitute, lie ably did his part as half back. At football he has proven to be no novice. In athletics in general he has commanded considerable attention and is looked forward to as distinguishing himself in athletic activities next year. George Porlier.

Many an opponent left the field sore in mind and muscle as a result of l cing trunned” to the ground by this swarthy tackier. This fun-loving yet fearless player from Depere was instrumental in bring about many a victory by his humor and ever-rising spirits, which at times were so contagious as to put the whole squad on its mettle.

Tall and rangy,” and with a good head, he has more than held his own at guard, showing this in the game with the state liners by breaking through their one hundred and eighty pound line, and stopping their plays before they were well-started.

They were filled every recreation hour of the season until ground was broken for the new heating plant late in October. But there was no lack of diversion, for on the gridiron, the well-played games of both our first and second teams drew large audiences on every Saturday afternoon when there was play at home. 1 hen, too, the social features connected with some of these contests, notably that with Stevens Point, are pleasantly remembered. The basketball season saw a strong team in the field. Only once during the season did it go down in defeat on the home floor. The ,‘extra‘’ with Superior, arranged by vote of the school, was interesting and well-attended. It added another to our victories. I he completion of the regular schedule opened the way for class tournaments for both the men and the women of the school. These brought out strong enthusiasm and are well worthy to be fostered in days to come. The special triangular indoor track meet under the direction of Coach McMillan was entirely successful. Our own school might, perhaps, have made a better score had the men entered training at the beginning of the year. In baseball, our activity has been less marked than it should have been with the amount of material in school for a good team. It is, however, very difficult to make a success of a game like this, with no place to practice or to play. Better conditions are hoped for next year. Reviewing all the year at a sweep, the motto seems to have been: “Vitalizing activity for all; benefit rather than glory.” The Athletic Committee believes firmly in encouraging class contests. For the coming year, it hopes to sec a shorter season in both football and basketball, the hockey outfit used to the limit of benefit, a system of grading and handicaps which will make every man in school a contestant of some kind of athletics, and a better rounded baseball schedule. This year has had far more victories than defeats. I he Athletic Association has had strong support from the whole school, especially from the Junior class. The same support next year, with the renewal of the two-year contract plan with Lawrence. Ripon. Carroll, and Stevens Point, will favor interest, economy, and success. Page One-hundred F«� rty-three BASKETBALL Coach MacMollek With just pride we look back at the basketball season of ’10. The football season was not over when the candidates for the team were in the gymnasium. With Schenke, Lipp, Whitcomb. Turner, and Peterson of last year’s team back, and new men with good experience, we saw a team well-qualified to handle the hard schedule. Basketball this season ranked first in athletics. Most of the games brought decided victories. The return games gave our ‘‘five’’ the championship among the colleges as well as the Normal schools of this state. The “subs.” George Porlier and Harry Whitcomb, did such creditable work that all are looking forward to another season of victory next winter. LINK-UP Center: W. Schenke. Forwards: A. Whitcomb. E.

After taking treatment in several sanitariums he entered a hospital located in Oshkosh on Algoma street. The treatment he received there was so succssful that in a short time his malady began to abate. About that time a slight rash broke out on his arm. whether due to the rapid exit of the disease or to the entrance of much knowledge has not yet been proved. The chief doctor. John by name, saw the afflicted one. and. fearing he might have measles, which would retard the recovery of all the patients and even mar the beauty of his assistants, called for a consultation. While the doctors were in conference. John obtained a powerful disinfectant, and soon the fumes spread throughout the whole ward, and two suits of clothes were thoroughly fumigated. But. lo! when the conference was over. John, the doctor, was much chagrined, for the verdict was. “No measles here.” Moral: Even the wise may be mistaken. never expected to be president John .vie Keith.

Pnjco One-hundred Fifty-two MY COMPLAINT Ye call me Ladies’ Study! but ye do ill to call me Ladies’ Study, who. for thirty-nine long years, had heard the idle gossip of girls, and who never yet has seen them study. If there be one among you who can say that ever near the stationer’s office or within my walls, you saw one studying, let him stand forth and prove it. And yet I was not always thus—a riotous hall, a seditious den for organized anarchy. My early life ran quiet as the mice that eat spring millinery, and when at last the students entered my door and began their lessons, there was one, a member of the Faculty, to keep them noiseless. Boys and girls sat in this same room and prepared their lessens. One fall, after the students were assembled, the President, a stately man, told them that they were too many for me to hold. I did not then know what could be done, but the regents made an appropriation for enlarging the school. I hat very fall the work of building began. I saw a large new room steadily rising, and soon the boys were moved into it. But in a few years, the number of students again became too large for me. and again building began. I his time the Senior girls were removed, and great was my relief. However, my peace was short-lived. My occupants steadily became gayer and more noisy as they increased in number. I o day. I hold a great crowd, and whenever I look up. behold, the girls are whispering. I he same continual talking that you have marked when during study periods you enter the Senior Study.

POOR RICHARD’S ALMANAC We have heard that nothing affects the standard of this school so much as the example and the advice of the graduating class. We trust that our influence has been beneficial and that the following rules Ik- a guide: A word to the wise is sufficient.” FRESHMEN—The path you must travel is long, and you will often Ik- wearied, but do not despair, for. Sheepskins follow the midnight oil.” Our first rule for you. therefore, is. Keep the lamp well filled.” Don't be discouraged because you are green, for. A green lK ugh rarely breaks. and. ‘•Greenness is a sign of growth. Beware of the Sophomore with an axe to grind, lie is a crafty fellow, and will surely try to work your brains instead of his own. SOPHOMORES—Vou have now attained the age at which you are prone to become slaves to fashion and foolishness. Most strangely we urge upon you. Be not frivolous. for. The stylish coiffure secures not 75%. and. Big heads have little wit. It is our earnest wish that you become fluent in conversation. We acquired our proficiency during the eight o’clock period in the corner by the stationer's office. Do you likewise. for fluent talking is essential to good bluffing, and. A good bluffer is the smartest one in class.” But Ik not over-confident of your ability, for Self-satisfaction precedeth a flunk.” JUNIORS—Your ideals frighten us. You rush in where Seniors tear to tread, but, W here ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to Ik- wise.” However, in practice, ignorance will not save you. Take for your watchword. Quarter! Quarter! Don't try to bluff in History class, for. Failure followcth the attempt. Go to Miss Kimball’s room by way of the upper or lower corridor, not through the Auditorium. for. “The look of a man is dangerous.” SENIORS—I.ct us adopt the following maxims: Get along with as little work as possible, for Being studious is a lonesome task. When you want to gossip, just go to the Junior Study, thereby saving the reputation of the Senior Study. Accept a twenty-five dollar portion. Teach because you love to. not for money, for. Money is vile lucre.” FACULTY—To you our suggestions are few. It is a tremendous expense for students to keep their lamps well tilled. Supply the oil ior them. for. Generosity hath its own reward.” Never flunk anyone. It is very inconsiderate, and. of course, students are not to blame if you give hard examinations, for. “A—ah -teacher may ask a question that twenty-five wise men cannot answer. Assign lessons of extra length on Friday, thus assuring to the students a quiet, restful Saturday and Sunday, since. “Absence of occupation is not rest. and, Idleness leadeth to the Bijou.

At his arrival, business immediately began. ••'As you know, he said, the purpose of this meeting is to listen iO the report of Mr. Small's strenuous efforts to manufacture a hair tonic that will grow hair. News of his failure has probably reached you, for had news travels fast. Now we have all tried, and all have failed. Mitchell tried cream—good. rich. Jersey cow cream—hut that failed. Fling shaved his mustache, hoping to send to his pate the energy which supplied it—that failed. All have failed, yet do not despair. Mr. flow today brought me this suggestion made by a Junior: Science says that since a bear's hair is thick, its oil will serve as a sure tonic. This sounds reasonable. Let us consider ways and means to get the oil. Promptly Mr. Mitchell arose, his dejection all gone. Mr. President, that kid of mine has an airgnn that I'll borrow from him. and we can do some target shooting, and then when we lind out who is the crack shot, we can let him go hunting bear for us. Target practice began as soon as Mr. Keith had assumed a sufficiently constructive attitude to make a target. Not very successful shooting at first. Mr. Small said that this was the result of physiological defects of the visual end organs, due to poor metabolism on account of the deadening effects of the toxines of worry; but after practicing for a fortnight. Mr. Fling succeeded in hitting the mark within a half foot of the center. Such marksmanship was considered excellent, for as Mr. Youker said. At that rate, if he aims at the middle of a hear, he will he sure to hit it somewhere. Mr. Fling was chosen to go in search of the hear. “I’ll get you a two weeks' leave of absence.” said Mr. Keith. I'll tell the Regents that you are going down East to attend a convention. Rapidly the Christmas holidays approached. How happy the shiny-topped ones were! By the time the snow was gone, surely each would have plenty of hair his own natural hair—to keep his head warm. The thought brought smiles to all their faces. At last came the momentous day when Mr. Fling shouldered his rifle, filled a trunk with bullets, and set out for the region of hears. When he reached his destination, he found that the hunting was line—hut after several days he concluded that hears were scarce. He searched for one wildly. He did not take time to eat slowly. He heeded no law of hygiene. All his energies were concentrated upon the one thought—to find a black hear. Hut vain was the search. The last day of hunting came, and as he went moodily through the woods lie heard something approaching. Could it he—yes. it was a hear—a hear at last—and wounded, too—what luck! As lie lifted his rifle, the animal fell—a struggle, and he was dead. How jubilant Mr. Fling was! The weary hours in the woods were forgotten. The next morning lie reached Oshkosh. The g� od news was told to anxious friends. Wild shouts of jov arose, and that night the six assembled at Mr. Dresden’s home, and tried out the grease. Then standing in a circle each vigorously rubbed into the scalp of the one before him a generous supply of the new tonic. F.ach took a Untie of the oil home with him. and in a few days each thought he could feel hair pushing its way up through the scalp. For several weeks the treatment continued. Then a friend of Mr. Dresden's who had killed many bears, called upon him, and of course heard of the sure hair tonic. He was taken out to see the skin with its thick, black hair. In the short conversation which followed, Mr. Dresden’s attention was called to the long, heavy tail which heretofore had been unnoticed. Less than an hour later, five indignant men were excitedly talking in the back yard, but one stood silent and crestfallen. W ell, what fur did you ever play such a trick on us? Don’t you know a dog when you see one?” growled Mitchell. Mr. Fling's error was probably due to a scries of exceedingly unfortunate optical illusions. which were increased by his intense desire to secure a bear. In our own cases, individual ascendency so blinded us to the characteristics of bears that we failed to note the long terminal posterior appendage of the animal. explained Mr. Small. And Fling's story was so probable that none of us thought the tail needed investigation, added Mr. Dresden, while Mr. Youker groaned. Oh. this disappointment is more than I can bear. The tickling and itching of our scalps, which we regarded as a sure sign of growing hair, must have been caused by the circulation in the cambium layer of the bark. said Mr. Keith. But all that Mr. Fling said, was Well. I'll Ik- do -goned.” tt r Little Allison. Maurice. Johnnie, and Frank Went fishing one day: When they found a boat ’Twas perfect in every respect.

Students, read me for my merits, and be lenient that you may enjoy; laugh at me for my jokes, and be not sensitive that you may laugh; censure me for my faults, but smile as you do it, that I may be happy. If there be any of my readers a severe critic, to him I say I am not more faulty to him than to myself. If, then, that critic demand why I was printed, this is my answer: not that I think I am perfect, but that I am the result of honest labor. As you praise me. I thank you; as you laugh at me, I admire your sense of humor; but as you censure me, I pity you. There are thanks for your praise; admiration for your sense of humor; and pity for your censure. Who is here so severe that would blame me if the jokes were dragged in by the ears? If any. speak; for him I pity. Who is here so foolish that would not take a joke? If any, speak; for him I pity. Who is here so lacking in talent that he could not have made me better? If any. speak; for him I pity, too. Pftf?e One-hundred Seventy-two Delighted lire nil who come to iin for Photon.

How I longed they might sec our men dance! Such art and artlessness! LIMERICKS There was a young man named Lipp. Whose tongue was not very Hip. They asked him one morn To blow his own horn. But he hustled away with a zipp. There is a young lady named Filer. I'm sure that her surname is Heller. Where’er she is found. The boys are around. For she knows how to jolly a feller. There was a young man named alter. Whose friends never knew him to falter. In reasoning sound. He could not be downed. This wise young Senior named Walter. There was a young man named Hugh, When the inter-school contest was due. To yell he was bound And wave banners around Till his arm was broken in two. There is a young maiden named Zora, Of steadies she has a great horror. To go with one twice. She doesn’t think nice This modest young maiden named Zora, There is a young coach named McMillan, He really thought it quite killin' To give us all shocks And have chicken-pox, This splendid young coach, McMillan.
