I � I 1 THE Department of Education is builded on two factors: theory and practice. The entire department aims at making efficient teachers of the students; with this end in view, the instructors have been chosen who are best fitted to direct and guide, and the course has been mapped out to prepare the students fora pedagogical profession. Dr. Small and Dr. Farley teach psychology, pedagogy, and the history and science of education. The course is very thorough and instructive, embracing the principles of the development of the mind as applied to children; this makes many a school room problem less difficult for the teacher. In the training department are experienced teachers who help the students with practice work by their wisdom and friendliness. Three quarters of practice is required of every graduate of the training department. and each is allotted to the various grades somewhat according to choice. The Grammar Room is in charge of Miss Jennie G. Marvin and her assistant. Miss Xettalie Boucher. Miss Christine Thoene is department teacher of the Intermediate, Miss Clara Trotter of the Second Primary, and Miss Lulu Reed of the First Primary. Miss Elizabeth Young is in charge of the kindergarten. Of supervisors. Miss Rose Swart is the head. She has been with this department for so many years that she is an invaluable aid to everyone concerned and understands thoroughly their perplexities. She is assisted by Miss Catherine Cavanaugh, whose little room under the stairs is a veritable haven for the sore-perplexed. Miss Mary Robb and Miss Grace Norton are supervisors for the Intermediate and Primary Grades. The excellence of the whole Training Department is a splendid incentive and example for the best pedagogy and gives a wholesome ideal for those who are to enter the profession of teaching.

Miss Peake and Miss Henderson of the English department instill a sincere appreciation of literature and language in every student. Miss Bagley takes the .Juniors in charge, and by rigorous drilling teaches them the P’s and Q’s of English grammar. Miss Sheldon and Miss Holmes divide their interests between literature and composition. Miss Coffman, who has so well assisted in this department, resigned the twenty-fifth of April and is succeeded by Miss Leavens. Mr. John Hill is professor of Latin and French. The Latin is the equivalent of the first two years of college work. Mr. Roehm is Herr Professor in the German department, and has done much to awaken an interest in the German language. Miss Encking and Miss Potter still stand over the book-shelves, watching with jealous care the welfare of their charges. Nor does their responsibility cease there: they keep an interested eye on the book world and when opportunity offers, they add many a helpful and valuable book to our shelves.

The Oshkosh Normal is exceptionally well equipped for training in these lines. Miss Hannah M. Cundiff is the director of music, assisted by Miss Ropes, who drills the model department. Those students taking the professional course are taught the various phases of musical technique that will aid them in teaching. But the influence of music has gone beyond the class room, and a ladies quartette and a large glee club of excellently trained voices are the result. It is the ambition of the music department to have its influence felt wherever possible in the furthering of the appreciation of beautiful music. If it has succeeded ever so slightly in this endeavor, the allotment of time cannot be said to be wasted. Miss Moulton and Miss Smith have practically the same aim in the department of art. The training received under them prepares supervisors of drawing, besides developing taste. Miss Carter and Miss Lane are supervisors of the physical education department for the young women, and Mr. Meyer for the young men. DEPARTMENT OF FINE ARTS May B. Moui.ton Chicago Art Institute.

The apparatus for all branches is adequate and the instructors are competent. The physics course is in charge of Mr. Ferguson. Mr. Clemans teaches chemistry and agriculture. Mr. Frank is his co-worker. Mr. Mitchell and Miss Stark have charge of geography. Mr. Mitchell also teaches some of the higher phases of the same, including geology. Mr. Fling instructs in biology and hygiene. Miss Conley is supervisor of domestic science. DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE Earl A. Clemans A. !{., University of Michigan. Harry R.

HISTORY HISTORY is probably the golden key that unlocks the other courses of school curricula. It certainly introduces and explains many abstruse studies by means of its subject matter. It requires for its exponent a lover of legend and fact combined. Miss Aleida J. Pieters is the instructor in American history, but in the course of her recitations she is able to arouse enthusiasm over the political and social problems of the day. Mr. Briggs has Civics under his control, and honestly endeavors to make the young women interested in its complexities. If a genial personality and a mingling of war tales can help the cause, his classes should certainly profit. Mr. Clow’s classes are noted for the profound depths of knowledge they probe. He has a true scholar’s reverence for the study, and is a source of inspiration to the students. DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY Lydon W. Briggs Frederick R. Clow A. I!., Carlton College, Xorthfield. Minn. Ph.

Mr. Manchester has charge of algebra for the regular course, besides all the college mathematics. This includes advanced algebra, trigonometry, analytic geometry, and calculus. Mr. Hewitt instructs in the subject of geometry. He gives special attention to the solution of original problems and the deductive process of reasoning. DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS Walter C.

It is due to the efforts of President John A. II. Keith and Regent Harrington that the Board of Regents of Normal Schools of Wisconsin established this department for the purpose of training teachers for such positions as supervisors of manual training, manual training teachers for high schools and for grade schools, teachers of industrial, vocational, and continuation schools, etc. The course covers a period of either two or three years. This department is housed in a building but lately completed and erected at a cost approximating $80,000. The equipment, all of the latest design, was installed at an additional expense of $15,000. The department is thus in a position to offer unexcelled facilities to our young men to acquire a practical working knowledge of the subject matter pertaining to these industrial courses. Among the courses offered are the following: joinery, wood turning, cabinet making, advanced cabinet making by the factory method, mechanical drawing, forge work, pattern making, foundry practice, machine shop practice, applied design, etc. The instructors in charge of the mechanical subjects are Mr. R. E. Gruenhagen, Mr. R. Hcberling, and Mr. H. W. Schmidt, the director. Hans W. Schmidt R. E. Gruenhagen University of Chicago. University of Wisconsin. A.B., University of Minnesota.

From Mr. Keith’s office to the remote boiler-room, there are certain factotums necessary to its existence. When a telephone call needs response, when there is an order to be delivered, or a kindness to be done. Miss Burke and Mrs. Riorden stand ready. They are valued by the entire school. Mr. Keith would be lost if he lacked their assistance. The deus-ex-machina below stairs is Mr. Vincent, assisted by a corps of engineers the leader of whom is Mr. Vosburg. No dust is allowed to settle long, no window to remain open, no locker to be out of commission. One or all come to the rescue with vigorous aid and a gallantry that soothes the distressed. In the opinion of the entire school, the weight of the day is balanced on the Engineers of the Office and of the Boiler-Room. We could afford to lose one of the departments rather than either of these. Frances Burke Mrs. Mabel Riordan Oshkosh Normal. Ivan Vincent Lathrop W.

This is a small, but very worthy class, almost entirely made up of young people who have entered from the training department and have therefore deeply identified themselves with the school. Our good wishes go with the class which through changes in the Normal School has become— “The last leaf upon the tree.

Its members are among the leaders in the school in the various activities. In oratory, debate, and athletics we claim our share of the champions. The limited membership of thirty makes possible a high standard of efficiency. Through proper leadership and effective methods, fruitful returns are ever apparent. All programs have a real literary value, and the accompanying parliamentary drill is a remarkable asset. The fraternal spirit that binds its members endures long after the days of active membership are over. By uniting the present with the past, the new ideas with old traditions, we have a society that is representative of Normal life.

The editorship of The Normal Advance was recently held by a Phoenix member, and the salutatorian of the Class of 1913 is a Phoenician. Miss Holmes is ever ready to wisely assist us.

This unassuming little club has a two-fold purpose—the discussion of current events and the benefit derived from individual participation in the discussions. The meetings are held in Miss Bagiev’s room on Tuesday evenings. This successful organization welcomes all the young men of the school who wish to keep abreast of the times.

Every second Tuesday evening the students assemble to read and to talk in German. As all the meetings are conducted in German, both interest and efficiency in the language are increased. The society is very popular among the German students, the roll lacking only a few of its limit of forty members. Much credit for the genuine spirit and good fellowship is due to Mr. Roehm, whose enthusiasm is shared by all who come in contact with him.

A special room has been set aside for the band and orchestra work, and a piano has been provided. It is hoped that an appropriation will be made in the near future which will make it possible for the school to own a complete set of band instruments. The Band has already done good work in playing for football and basketball games, and has accompanied the teams on their trips whenever possible. Although this is a new organization, it has been very favorably compared with other school bands of much greater experience. PERSONNEL OF THE BAND Mr. George Nevitt . . . .

It is composed of picked voices, chosen by individual trial in which voice quality and some ability to read music are both considered. For several years the club has made annual appearances in public entertainments of some pretension. Oratorio, cantata, and opera have been attempted with unqualified success, until now the reputation of the club for good work is more than local. In January the club appeared in a sacred concert at the Presbyterian Church before an audience of many hundreds. At this time the selections from some of the masters were sung, and the dignified yet brilliant rendition of the program gained much credit for the organization. The year’s work was brought to a close with the presentation of the opera, “The Chimes of Normandy,” at the Grand Opera House, to a large and appreciative audience. The season has been a prosperous one. and leaves a happy memory of work well done.

These organizations have for their purpose not only the presentation of good music before the school, but also that the players shall become able to train and direct such an organization themselves. Our orchestra was organized at the beginning of the school year, and now has a personnel of thirty members. Regular rehearsals have been held every Monday afternoon. The orchestra has played at various functions during the year and morning exercises, besides acquitting itself in an admirable manner at both the annual Orchestra-Band Concert and a concert at Omro. During the coming year there is every reason to hope for the development of an orchestra which will be able to tour the Fox River Valley. PERSONNEL OF ORCHESTRA Mr. George King .

Its graduates have been trained expressly for the teaching profession, but the files in the office show many a deviation—some to obscurity, some to fame. Throughout the state there are representatives in its schools; throughout the United States a traveller may find some “grad” who recalls with pleasure the days spent in the old ivy-covered structure on the banks of the Fox. This year The Advance, the school monthly, published an account of the life and activities of Normal’s most illustrious man—Balthasar Henry Meyer, member of the Interstate Commerce Commission. He is only one of many who have brought honor to the school. Among the Faculty we have one member who is a graduate of this school— Miss Webster, of the mathematics department. Because of the large number of graduates the Alumni Association has been organized, which is open to every graduate of this institution. It serves to keep classmates and classes in touch with one another, that the after life may not entirely obliterate the feeling of comradeship, and even kinship, that grew by daily contact within these walls. Every June, during Commencement week, there is a reunion of classes and every one is always received with welcome. ORATORICAL ASSOCIATION OFFICERS Secretary Treasurer President . . Vice-President Charles A. Meyer Ludwig M. Petersen Esther Hanson Harold J. Poklier THE Oratorical Association is a business organization which has charge of the platform contests in which the school is a part. The entire student body and Faculty constitute the associate membership and therefore come in on the taxes. These taxes and the splendid work done by our speakers have made oratory and debate matters of general interest this year. The annual oratorical contest, although there were only three entries, was good. At this contest Marvin Wallach, with the oration “A Soldier of the Common Weal,” was chosen to represent this school in the state contest at Stevens Point. Robert Fischer, with the oration “Modern Feudalism,” was awarded second place, and Leslie Turner, with the oration The Spirit of the Times,” received third place. At Stevens Point, Superior won first place. River Falls second, Platteville third, and Oshkosh fourth. Out of seventeen entries the following team was chosen to represent the Junior Class in the annual debate with the Stevens Point Juniors: First place, Warren Fischer; second place. Elmer Koch; third place, James Hayden, and fourth place, Jessie Gruenisen. The debate was held here March 18. The question was very fair and the teams were well matched. The judges, after some deliberation, awarded a two to one decision to the visitors. The Triangular Inter-state Debate was held April 25. Terre Haute, Ind., Normal, 111., and Oshkosh are in this league. Each school has two teams and keeps its affirmative at home. Our affirmative team won, two to one from Normal, and our negative team lost by a unanimous decision to Terre Haute. An interpretation, not at all anticipated by the Oshkosh team, was the chief reason for our defeat at Terre Haute. Our school has come to be proud of the high character of the work it carries on in oratory and debate. Here's a boost to those who take part and to the Faculty members who find time outside of their regular work to render assistance. ACTIVE MEMBERS Ludwig Petersen Charles P. Wolf Charles A.

Treasurer of Athletic Association . President of Athletic Association . Coach Football Manager . Track Manager . Baseball Manager THE YEAR IN ATHLETICS NEVER before in the history of the school have athletics played a part of such importance in school activities as during the season of 1912 and '13. We have raised the athletic standard to a height far above all previous attainments and have set a precedent for our future teams. In football, especially, the record made is such as will require no little effort to maintain. Defeated but once, and then before it was fully organized, our team stands first in the state. Basketball was not so great a success, although, as is shown in these pages, our team did excellent work. We may only offer prophecies as to the result of the baseball and track work. But it is safe to say that there is little doubt of our athletic rating being lowered as a result of these activities. 120 1 MEN’S PHYSICAL DIRECTOR ANI) COACH A LARGE part of the past season’s success is due to the work of our physical director and coach, Arthur E. Meyer. No matter what the weather might be, he was always on the job. Carefully studying the players, he discovered their weak points and exerted every effort in strengthening them until at the end of the season, he had a team which was the pride of the school and a compliment to his ability. In practice his criticism put renewed energy into the team; in the games his presence on the side-lines was its inspiration. Not only in football has his ability been demonstrated. In basketball, track work, and gymnasium training his suggestions were such as would bring the best work from the team or class. He organized special classes in which he taught wrestling, tumbling, and special work on heavy apparatus. His sternness in class work blended with his sense of humor and good-fellowship make him an ideal instructor in athletics. 121 • AS a result of the football season of 1912, our team was placed far in advance of their rivals. In casting up the football dope, it becomes evident that the University of Wisconsin is the only institution in the state that can boast of a team which was superior to ours. From the start it was certain that we should have a star team. With eight of last year’s team in the line-up for practice and a score of other reputable players striving for an opportunity to demonstrate their skill, success was guaranteed. We are justly proud of their success. They worked hard in practice and won fairly in contest. Among the Normal schools of the state, they have not only maintained our superiority, but have made a record which our rivals can envy but never hope to beat. Among colleges they have made it certain that Oshkosh is to be considered first if any designs on state championship are had. 122 FOOTBALL TEAM Fortier Harrington Mucks Schenke Guetsloe Heller Blank Meyer Dunn Simpson Wolf Machia Kuebler Liner Manchester Rasmussen Holmes Collies Lift FOOTBALL SCHEDULE Oct. 5 Oshkosh . . . . 16 St. John’s Military Academy 0 at Oshkosh.

He handled the passes in fine style and seldom failed to outplay his man. His brainy playing and abundance of “pep” was one of the most gratifying features of the season. Cai.i.IES (Quarter) Callies, next year’s captain, is an old hand at the business. His future promises to be as brilliant as his past. He was hindered this year on account of size, but will be there with the goods next season. His ability as a runner, in bringing back punts and covering passes will add much to the strength of the 1913 team. Simpson (Tackle) Simpson at the other tackle was a worthy colleague. His wide experience, his weight and strength, his speed and smashing power, all contributed to make him a formidable opponent. The smashing of Ripon's offense and Milwaukee’s defense may all be traced to George and his helpmate, Arlie. His spectacular long runs featured in several games. 124 i PoRLIER (Quarter Back) Poriier played his position in fine style. His yell, “Hike,” was a signal for instant and speedy action. His dodging, running, and tackling were beautiful to see. He cleverly passed the ball to the ends, backs, and tackles, and got the plays away in snappy style. Kink” was at his best when dodging through a field of tacklers. Blank (Center) Blank came back after a year’s reaction and supplemented well the work of Simpson and Mucks. Built on generous lines, he proved to be a stumbling block to opposing centers. With “Kink” and the ends he formed a smoothly working triangle for forward passes. Holmks (Guard) If grit were weight, Ducky” would be a three-hundred-pounder. His light weight was against him, but he made up for it by fighting hard and following the ball. 125 Heller Heller played a fast game at all times. He subbed” in Muck’s place and also played a fine guard. While not so heavy as Arlie, he proved anything but an easy mark for an opponent. SCHENKE (End) Tod played opposite Wolf and covered much ground. If a forward pass came in his direction he was sure to nail it. He studied his opponent at all times and played a classy game. Kuebler (Half) ”A1 was one of the two fast full-backs, alternating with Machia. Though handicapped by lack of weight, he was fast and sure, always able to gain a few yards. His steady hammering wore away his opponents’ defense at all points. He handled passes well. 12 ; Machia (Full Back) '‘Manager Mac was a landmark of the back field. When he got started and hit the line, nothing but a stone wall could stop him. Mis brilliant smashing in the Ripon game and his all-around good work at other times left an impression on the minds of his supporters no less deep than that which he left on the bodies of his enemies. LlPP Lipp proved to be one of the fastest open field runners on the team. His fine gains were helpful at all times. He intercepted several passes at opportune times and scored often. Built low and solidly, he was a veritable battering ram. Dunn (Half) Tommy” played half this year and got in some good work. He hit the line hard and got off well around the ends. He pulled down passes in spectacular style. His aggressive tactics generally gave him the jump on his opponent and he always followed his advantage. 127 Harrington (Guard) By an accident Harrington was prevented from enjoying: the fruits of his gamy, hard fight for a guard position. His work was consistent and heady. Liner (Guard) Liner filled exactly the space between center and left tackle, blocking it so completely that no man ever got through. His weight and pugnacity were in perfect harmony with the rest of the “Big line. His playing was characterized by coolness and steadiness. Mucks (Tackle) The Normal line in 1912 was the heaviest in years. The tower of strength in the line was Mucks. Arlie united strength, speed, gameness, and driving power with immense weight. In addition he threw bullet-like passes and kicked well-directed punts. No man who played against him had a chance. When he got his start and worked up steam it took at least four men to stop him. Rasmussen (End) John played one of the best seasons of his long and sensational career on the gridiron. Speed and accuracy with the forward pass, strength and driving power in smashes, clear head work, and marvelous knowledge of the game, all united in making a brilliant, steady, and sure player. 12$ THE SECOND TEAM IN the maintaining of a team of champions, our second team helps considerably. On the practice field every night during the season they work the first team hard. Each year new stars are developed in this team under the careful coaching of Mr. Manchester, and when the next season opens they are ready to take their place in the biff line. Several frames were played this year by the second team, and in every case they showed pood form. When next year’s team is organized, the vacancies which will have been caused by graduation will be filled by this material and new players from high school teams. isopp iouo.j Spoor (F. ) Curtis (Q.B.)

Avery (G.) 129 THE basketball season was not so great a success as that of football, not because of lack of material, however, for we had a good supply. Captain Turner was kept from the game because of physical disability. The class tournaments held in the spring showed that the school abounded in good players who did not appear for practice. But even with this handicap, our record was good and even better than could have been expected. If we lost, the score showed a hard-fought contest; if we won, it was through fair play. The loss of Wolf in the middle of the season caused a final set-back. The place was filled by Schubert, a clever player who. up to this time, had not entered the field as a Normal player. We, as well as our opponents, can look back at this team, however, and be satisfied. They were scrappy and true sportsmen. Their loyalty to the school was one of their commendable features. If our future athletes enter the contests in a similar spirit we are sure to remain a stumbling block to aspiring champions. 130 Sehenke Han man Sim 'son Heller Wolf Meyer Porlier Cameron BASKET BALL SCHEDULE Dec. 14 Oshkosh . . 18 Fond du I,ac ... 29 at Fond du Lac.

He was one of the steadiest men on the team and a great basket shooter. His field work was not surpassed by anyone who handled the ball for us this season. Wolf (Forward) Captain Wolf played his last game at this institution in December, leaving at that time for the university to complete his education. He left behind him an enviable record as a sportsman and athlete. His accuracy in shooting baskets, speed in covering and skill in dribbling were such that his loss was a severe blow to the team. Simpson (Guard) Simpson was one of the veterans and the regular standing guard. He specialized in stopping the speedy opponents and breaking up their star plays. His long throws and Herculean dribbles were nothing short of sensational. When he left his station and advanced to the fray, the enemy could offer no effective resistance. •w its Bauman (Guard) As a guard, Jack fulfilled the expectations of his many friends. He held his own against many a skilled forward of the opposing teams. His feat of dribbling down the floor and shooting a basket was a never-failing source of joy to loyal hearts. Few men would willingly get in his way. Hku.kk (Forward) Heller, known to his admirers as “Wild Bob, was one of the fastest men in the game. His playing, both in center and as forward, was fast and classy. He worked especially cleverly on the cross-plays with Porlier. He will be a strong man in next year's line-up. SCHBNKE Manager Schenke was most remarked for his speed on the floor. His passing was sure, and his short shots, following a dribble, were great point winners. His height enabled him to out-jump his competitors, and when he got the ball something was always stirring. t • 133 1 ■ SHubert (Center) Shubert entered the lists rather late but sprang at once into prominence on account of his work in the St. John’s game. He combined size with speed and handled the ball with accuracy. His passing was good and he shot baskets with pleasing regularity Hayden (Forward) “Jim” made a decided hit whenever he entered the game. It seemed that no game was complete till he had entered and made his basket. He is a sure shot and fast. His playing assured him that he will be a good man on next year’s team. TBACK OUR prospects in track work are promising. The work of the track team has been good thus far. With comparative ease, we were able to carry off the honors in the Triangular Meet, held April 23. among the Oshkosh High School, the Y. M. C. A., and our team. In this meet no weight events were pulled off, thus leaving Mucks, the Olympian man. Shubert, Blank, and Schcnke, some of our star performers, out of the contest. With Cameron and Petersen in the line for long runs, Rasmussen, Krueger, Harrington, and Porlier in dashes and hurdles. Dorr and Nachtrab in pole vaults, Schcnke, Phalen, and Bartels in the jumping events, the outlook is encouraging. A demonstration of their ability was prevented on May 2, at which time the scheduled meet with Lawrence College was called off on account of inclement weather. Negotiations are being made by Manager Harrington for meets to be held soon, at which we have strong hopes for our team. 135 y THOUGH not fully organized as yet, it appears at present that we are to have a strong baseball team this season Manager Simpson is booking games which will give our team a chance to make a reputation. Captain Holmes is doing his best in the training of the players. The first game, played with Ripon College April 26, was lost by a close score of three to two. At this game some of our best material was not in the line-up and very little practice had been taken. This was a great encouragement to the baseball fans in the school, and they are waiting anxiously the outcome of future contests. 136 GIRLS BASKET BALL EARLY in November,the basketball season began. The girls of the different classes elected their captains; the captains and coaches, the squads. The coaches for the teams were the two physical directors, and the captains were as follows: Senior captain, Miriam Phillips; Junior captain, Agnes Doyle; Four-Year captain, Marjorie Allen; C. S. C. captain, Clara Blahnik. As a result of the hard work of the coaches, the series of tournament games was one to be proud of. Good team work and fast and fair playing were marked in each game. Every team could not win, but all teams could play fair—and they did. Friendly antagonism acted as an incentive to better and harder play. The C. S. C. team, though made up of younger girls, played a good game with the Seniors; held the score down in the contest with the Four-Years, and won from the Juniors. The Junior team, made up practically of new material, many of the girls having no knowledge of the game and others never having played together, put up a good fight, though a losing one. With the splendid training of this year and with most of the same girls on the team, these girls have a fair chance of winning the championship of 1914. The Four-Years and the Seniors, with practically the same players as last year, showed what good team work and long practice can do. The last game of the tournament was fought between the two teams to decide the championship. Both were confident of winning. In the first half, the Four-Years were ahead, but in the second half the score of the Seniors slowly crept up until, in the last five minutes, the Seniors passed one point ahead of the Four-Years, and the championship was theirs.

AND SHE (We ought to leave this title ‘blank.’) He goes to church on Sunday, He likes the sermon well. But most of all he likes to see The sexton' and the hell. A SEQUEL It seems to be a paradox. But, really, to be frank, If all her mind were full of him It still would he a blank. THREE PER DAY What thought is with us when we rise? What image flits before our eyes— To goad us as each minute flies? ’Tis Breakfast I What draws us when we break away Oft in the middle of the day. And fill the walks in bright array? 'Tis Dinner! SOUTHERN GIRL What is it that when work is done. All things arc sweet where summer never dies, And recreation has begun, And flowers flourish under southern skies; Causes for us the greatest fun? But here, by some strange chance, we find a rose, 'Tis Supper! Blooming as well amid our northern snows. Who's Coming? n� “Logic Is Logic—That's All, I Say Hill had a theory—unapproachable in logic; Minor, major premise—conclusion: pedagogic. He teas a wonder in the power of ratiocination. Or dead or dying lay his foes on every proud occasion. In art or politics or war, or science of the day. He'd burst the logic barrel in, and then he’d calmly say: “A body can't move where it is. Xor move where it is not. And so it’s plain to see It’s glued to the self-same spot. Let the natives pull or push. And let them yank or shove, They can't get 'round philosophy— An immovable thing can’t move.’ They patiently gathered up Hill's remains. In a logical kind of a way; And tried to tell in some epitaph His end—the year, and the day. Hut logic failed, and it seemed fair That Hill should be forgot. For no one knew what the moral was, Or what the moral was not. Xow, Hill, one day in June, ll'a walking the railroad track. Where the engine couldn’t stop. And the engine couldn’t back. It couldn’t back up where it was. Or stop where it was not. And so said Hill to himself, “l‘m plainly on the dot.’’ Hut the sexton was a kindly man. As sextons all should be— He saved Hill’s name, and lifted his fame Out of obscurity: Here lies Hill—in pace, sleep; His premise and conclusion a tart were driven May he at last around the throne of logic stand, united syllogism. —Dedicated to The Quiver by W. C. Hewitt. “Logic Is Logic Hecause I Say So.' ISO SLEEP- OR AN EIGHT O’CLOCK CLASS? “Ha! Ha! he cried, in accents deep, “I’ve pot an eight o’clock drone. But I’d rather pound my ear in sleep. In my bed at 'home sweet home.’ ” Thus said the brilliant student as he wended his weary way toward school. Tis not often that we find such a personage voicing his opinion in such a convincing way— most of them are too sleepy to utter a word. “Yawn and the whole class yawns with you,- is an explanation of the law of duplication. If you don’t believe it just yawn once in an eight o’clock class and see what happens. Everybody is sure to say, Whist,” and you follow suit. Even the teacher is sometimes coaxed into voicing his opinion of early rising by giving vent to a long, Yaw-aw-aw-n.'' A poet once said: Sleep rules the world”—even though the world be an eight o’clock. It’s fine to be awakened in the early morning—when the sun is rubbing his eyes—by a Big Ben” that goes, Tink! tink! Br-r-r-r, and seize your clothes as though you never saw them before, then get one shoe on, and fall back asleep. Isn’t it strange how many people hand in excuses of just “Sickness” when it ought to be Sleeping Sickness ? Once a man said, Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” I’ve often wondered if that man knew what he was talking about. I tried it once,—went to bed at seven o’clock—didn’t hear the alarm when it went off—and missed my eight o’clock. Was I flurried? Flurried! I was worried to think that I was presented with that extra thirty minutes, formerly consumed in recitation. I once knew a boy who slept for three days and when he woke up he called out, O pa, how much longer may I sleep?” Is it possible, you ask? Sure it is. Try it yourself after you’ve had ten weeks of an eight o’clock class and find out. “The course of true love never runs smooth,” and when your love is Sleep, believe me, it’s a pretty bumpy road. Burns said (in his sleep), God gives sleep to the bad in order that the good may be undisturbed”—at eight o’clock. li e know two charming little boys. Two scientists are they. You’ll find them working in the lab, On almost any day. Mere frogs can have no mystery For brainy men like these, And they are friends of skeletons, And hold them on their knees. Harry Slater: You just ought to hear my little tots talk. They go ta, te te, to, goo ge, goosh. Bud: They learn well, don’t they? Dorothy: I)o you know why Mr. Roehm has such volume to his voice? Phoebe: Twenty quires make one ream. Petersen: Miss Pieters, I have a fine poem for remembering the names of the kings of England. Miss Pieters: What is it? Petersen: I-er-don’t remember it. 151 Jxst a Few of Us NORMAL COURSE See (he row of weary Zooks Bending under loads of hooks. They must study, they must work, In this school they cannot shirk.

Just as the church-bells tolled the hour of eight. Up the fair, wide Ahgoma street he went. He paused before a large and stately house, He seemed unto himself awhile to talk. He passed it by, approached the neighboring place. And swiftly, surely ambled up the walk. He rung the bell, he entered in the door. And hung his hat and coat up in the hall. He waited in the parlor for awhile And scrutinized the pictures on the wall. The master of the house then greeted him,— Remarked about the weather and all that, And all the time was saying to himself, I wonder what the boy is driving at? wonder who the gentleman can be? Why does he want to see me, anyway? He ought to come to the point some time— It seems to me he’s come prepared to stay. And all the time the youth was thinking, too,— “ wonder what makes Ruth so awfully slow? I told her I’d be here tonight. I’m sure I told her, so she ought to know. An awkward pause, a short attempt at speech, And then an even longer, deadlier pause. And each one wondered what the other meant. Both were suspicious, neither knew the cause. At last the youth in desperation said, “I wonder what makes Ruth so late tonight? RuthI Who the dickens—Oh, I get you now!” Upon the entertainer's brain there flashed a light. You wish to sec some one named Ruth, you say; You have a date with her, do infer. My neighbor's granddaughter is Ruth, I know, A relative of mine; it must be her. The young man ran swiftly from the house And when he reached the frosty air. He gave two deep and hollow groans, And clenched his fist, and swore a mighty swear. Again he ran until he reached the street. His thoughts were sober and his heart was sad. “Already I have wasted half an hour, And Ruth, ah me. she surely will be mad. MORAL In making dates, O Normal youths and men. In choosing who and why, all should take care; So matter if we arc not sure just when, Yet most of all we must remember where. .

RECEPTION DAY AT OSHKOSH NORMAL SEPTEMBER ONE Scene: Mall at the school, the reverend Faculty seated about waiting for victims. Miss Webster sits brandishing a P. I). R. in preparation for the morrow; Miss Pieters stands near with a copy of Palmer’s Ideal Teacher.” The Misses Carter and I.ane are practicing the jig for the beginning gym classes, and Miss Bagley is keeping time for them. Miss Peake and Miss Henderson are arguing the case of Shakespeare vs. Bacon, and Miss Sheldon is scintillating sarcasm at the expense of both. Mr. Briggs is trying to persuade Mr. Keith to give him a room to which Mr. Mitchell may not have access, not even to bring his class for specimens. ACT ONE. (A party of prospective female teachers are seen coming up the walk, their steps somewhat hesitant and also impeded by the baggage they could not yet intrust to a strange landlady in a big city. Mr. Hill, with true Southern courtesy, rushes down to relieve them of their grips; they relinquish them reluctantly, for he looks innocent enough to be one of ‘'them” confidence men.) Mr. liriyt s (in an aside) : Some good-looking young ladies in that relay; I’ll see if I can be of assistance. They look homesick already, and I’ll be a father to them. (Miss Cavanaugh and Mr. Mitchell exchange knowing glances. Mr. Hill, with a low bow, presents the newcomers to Prexie. They look to Mr. Small in their confusion and he explains matters to them.) Mr. Small: Young ladies, who are soon to assume the honorable profession of pedagogy and after the mastery of its intricate and subtle windings in the flowery paths of knowledge (which, in turn, require a thorough study of the psychical functions of the hitherto only physiological medulla oblongata and the other features of the human anatomy), you must learn to train your perceptions till the mental image assumes its true proportions, and you will be able to detect the noble countenance of your future president. He is beside you. Mr. Farley (rushing up wildly, flourishing arms and legs): Are there any of those awful Normalites arriving? I suppose I was vainly hoping that we should have a year’s rest. N’o? Mr. Roehm and I want to go out to our game preserves and get them ready for the influx of birds, which will take place soon. We hoped to get a little fishing done, too. I tell you, this teaching game is terrible on the nervous system. As Mr. James says----- Mr. Roehm: O come on, Farley. I’m going home for luncheon. Teaching served me well when it turned into a marriage bureau. (Both exit.) Miss Encking (who is standing at the window): Here come some of those bother- some boys; actually, boys cause twice as much trouble as girls without offering any compensation whatever. When the day of judgment comes, I’m going to hold up some of those tattered books and 'rackless' newspapers as silent witness of their devastations. Mr. Mitchell: That’s all right, Miss Encking, just so you don’t mention me on that auspicious occasion. The Lord doubtless knows, however, that I torment you enough and also that 1 make up for all transgressions by quoting the Bible and Shakespeare. Some of ’Em 157 Miss Peak? (wheeling about) : Who said Shakespeare ? I am never weary of discussing that inimitable playwright. His infinite mastery of human life with all its complexities---- Miss Holmes: There you go again. What am 1 to teach my poor C. S. S. if you scare them by your discussions over his rights to his fame? O Miss Starks, there comes Herbert with his pet calf. Miss Storks (plucks some grass and advances to meet Herbert and his calf. They engage in hilarious conversation. Miss Potter obviously rejoices that she does not have to climb on the bars to see it.) Mr. Frank: Don't let Fling see that. A two-headed calf would be a very inter- esting specimen. Miss Bagley: O that’s nothing. Out West there are funnier things than that. Why, in California they have the most wonderful things I evah saw. My powahs of description fail me. Mr. Manchester: Never mind, Miss Bagley. when I get through selling athletic tickets. I’ll have a lottery for California land. Then all we poor school teachers will be able to go out and judge for ourselves. .Mr. Hill: Speaking of regions reminds me of the proverbial rudeness of the North. Shortly after I came to this school to encourage epexegetical discussions over the old Mss., I heard rising from the regions of the kindergarten the strains of that plcbian song. Battle Hymn of the Republic.” I could give another version of the same, but it is sacred to the South. Mr. Farley: None of that. Hill. I confess that my love for the North is based on my summer love for northern Wisconsin. There are perfect trout streams and quail coverts—better than any of your places. Mr. Fling: Well, you-all can have your hunts, but leave me the joys of the hygiene laboratory when there is a suffragette squabble over the safety of a cherished cat. Believe me, science would never progress if the eternal feminine had her way. In my eyes that is one more argument against the suffrage question. Miss Bagley (rising with a distinctly frigid air) : Some people can learn and won’t; others can’t learn and would. Mr. Ferguson (rushing down the hall, Mrs. F. under one arm): Oh, I say! I've seen a new comet, and it presages the end of our days. Miss Webster: I.et us to our devotions. Mr. Farley: None of that. Miss Webster. I beg your pardon, but I’m too frank to be a successful hypocrite like our friend Mitchell here. I’m durned glad this school is coming to an end! I’ll have my happy hunting grounds at last.

Scene: Miss Sheldon’s Room. Time: 10:20 A. M. (Miss Sheldon discovered at table, diligently perusing a copy of Crother’s latest attempt. Enter class from center.) Schultz: Methittks, the ventilation's rather poor. Open a window, there, allow some air To permeate the room; in other words. To renovate the pent-up atmosphere. Miss Sheldon: Well, children, I suppose you all have bro't Your outlines with you. Prithee, Mr. Schultz, What is the theme of your fair manuscript? SCHt'LTZ: In sooth, the usual theme is rather light, In fact, a mere phantasmagoria, .4 monumental and marccssant mist. I disagree with this, think it right To cogitate on something arduous. Which calls for action, sempiternal research. Lo! I have chosen a subject which I think Conforms to these few poor ideals of mine. Or, “What is Civilization?“ Miss Sheldon: Very well.

Rasmussen: wrote a treatise on “Self-Government Applied to Normal Schools, but sad to tell, 1 left it on the desk in Proxy's room. Whence some foul fiend hath carried it away. Perchance in later times, it may be seen Among the annals of the Regents’ Hoard. Miss Sheldon: How sad that such a noble work of art, An ornament to all our literature. From our fond eyes forever must be barred. (Enter Spoor, bearing six Dictionaries.) Spoor: Miss Potter says that these arc all they have, scarcely think that they will be enough. Miss Sheldon: Herr Schultz and Herr Greoneisen, you may go. The rest of you, please stay a while behind And spend a pleasant hour in digging out The meanings of the words these high brows spout.

They’re the pride of the Xormalitc youth. Our Andy’s a wonderful guy, He catches his meals on the fly. Some day, without doubt. If he doesn’t look out. He will choke on a doughnut and die. We wonder why “Bottles” is sore, He always was sprightly before; He removed every trace Of mustache from his face And now the girls like him no more. There once was a fusser named Heller, If he liked a girl, he would tell her. He asked Linnie so sweet To go to the meet. And she went there—with some other feller. “Si.” “Si.” is awfully spry. For feminine charms he has an eye The surest place to find old “Si” Is where the girls are passing by. A STRIDE TOWARD LIBERTY! We, the Ineffably Bored, assembled together in the silvery light of the magic moonbeams at the shrine of our patron goddess Luna, do hereby solemly swear and affirm to forsake forever the haunts of pursuing man, for the following good and sufficient reasons, namely: 1.

Signed, Georgiaxa Leberman Lixnie Rappley Rosebud Van Laanen Marjorie Kruger Irene Sexton Hooray for little Clarence, We all should copy him. So steady in the classroom. So graceful in the gym. His crowning glory is his hair. Of which he takes especial care. And there is handsome William, The flower and pride of Keil. Whene'er he clears the “elephant,” What jtangs the maidens feel. In fear they cry, He'll break his neck. Oh, save our darling Billy Rech!” “I’m sick today. I’m feeling punk, The Prexy sadly cried. Oh. do not let that bother you” The brilliant youth replied. But mind what I am telling you. And do just as I say; Go home and get a little rest. I’ll run the school today!” Oh. see the mighty warrior, Freddie, the raven-haired. He always looks to us as though The girlies had him scared. And yet it’s very strange to me Why he’s so fond of Chemistry. Behold our little Robert, Who also is called “Zip.” He can turn a flip-flap in his sleep. And balance on his lip. He whiles his time away, ’tis said. By trying to stand upon his head. Prexy Docs a Little Detective Work 167 .4 Xatural Glimpse of a Few Faculty SPRING The days of March and April bring The pleasant time of blooming spring. The little birds begin to sing. And bumble bees begin to sting; The girls get out the old porch swing, And “dearest” goes to buy a ring; The ball player loosens up the wing,— could go on thusly, an endless string. Hut to say it shortly, ’most everything Begins to hint of coming spring. OPTIMISM A lesson here! A lesson there! We should worry! We should care! These are trifles thin as air— Life is very short.

A girl got a lesson in the Ladies’ Study. A girl made out an excuse, and told the truth. A reporter refrained from rapping his pencil for a whole period. A teacher made a mistake, and confessed that he was wrong. A girl took a report without saying things about the reporter. A Billy Nolan” was asked a question and replied, “I don’t know.” A pupil flunked a study, and admitted that he deserved to flunk. A Faculty member acted almost human. lint only once. p “Who's Who?

Place: Corridor and Diana Juno Humboldt Apollo Belvidere Janitor near Junior Study. Plato Brian de Bois Guilbert Merlin Galahad Discobolus (rouses himself and lowers his arm cautiously): S-st, s-st, Hebe! You down there? Come up. Hebe (posing half way down the stairs, a shy, modest maiden with a pitcher): Come down here. Discobolus (descends and they sit on Hebe’s pedestal): Isn't this great to stop posing for a while and be natural? Hebe: It’s just lovely. Discobolus (gazing out of the window) : You have a fine view here. You should have a window-seat, to watch the goers and comers on the campus. Hebe: The I atin students gather there to watch Mr. Hill safely out of the way. When the cat’s away, the mice—, only in this case the genus is equus non rodent. Will you have me? Discobolus: What! Hebe (in distress): Oh, isn’t that all right? I heard the students saying it and I thought I’d try it. Discobolus: You mean, Do you get me? Hebe: I’d like to descend those steps and see if I could get down without tripping. Scarcely a girl goes down without stumbling. It’s their high heels, or their shoe-strings, that trip them up. ’ Discobolus: No danger of your doing that. Hebe (gazing complacently at her lack of pedal teguments): Mercy no! Discobolus: If we were doing this properly we’d cut three classes and stroll around the fountain all morning. But it isn’t morning and we haven’t any classes to cut. Diana (leaping from her pedestal, bounds up the stairs, dragging her stag by its horns). (To stag) : Come on, you beast. (To Hebe and Discobolus): Hurry up, you two. We’re meeting in the upper corridor. (Hebe anti Discobolus follow her slowly and disgustedly.) Hebe: She must think sh’s Mr. Marshall. (Other statues are assembling in the halls, stepping from their pedestals, and pictures are deserting their frames.) Juno (floats in from the Ladies’ Study): Good morning, Diana. How do you do, Mr. Humboldt? Humboldt (from over library door) : Very poorly. very poorly. These dumb students nervous prostration gif me. They in the halls gather and talk. 176 talk. The Faculty in the library gather and talk, talk. I’m between der Teufel und der deep meer. Discobolus: Which is the devil, Mr. Humboldt? Apollo (breaking in): Oh, they are a pretty good bunch, old man. Take it from me, I have the original soft snap. I’m in the back of the room where the girls can't stare me out of countenance admiring my manly beauty, but I can sec them. Discobolus: A hem! Apollo: If I weren’t a statue there’s only one thing I’d rather be, and that’s a reporter in the Ladies’ Study. Diana: I pity the girls. They have it hard enough now with men reporters, without you. ’ Apollo: I’d rap my pencil at every blonde little peach. Brian lc Hois Guilbert: Why not the dark ones? I never did fall for Rowena, you remember. Apollo: The light ones for me every time. I'll cut out that Marshall man yet. (He pats his curls complacently.) Diana: Harry Slater’s hair is twice as curly as yours and a much nicer color. Apollo: D—, do you really think so? (He gazes into the bubbler to catch his reflection.) Maybe I could have my hair dyed. Hebe: I like your hair as it is, Apollo. Juno: Hebe, come here to me! You encourage vanity by speaking thus. I’m sure I’ve always regretted your being placed in this school. Already I can see a change from your modest demeanor, due of course to your seeing the outrageous conduct of the students. Hebe (iwth unexpected spirit): You don’t expect me to be tied to your apron strings forever, do you? Discobolus (looking at Juno doubtfully): Apron strings? ’ Juno: That bears out what I have said,—speaking that way to your mother. I’m surprised. Discobolus (aside): We should worry. Athena: You have changed, Juno. Diana (aside) : Use never dulls a sharp tongue. (Aloud.) Don’t you ever long to run things as you did in Olympus? Juno: I certainly do. I’m sure I would make a better S. S. G. president than any they’ve had yet. 177 Discobolus: How would you serve the reports, lacking, as you do. upper and lower limbs? Juno: Mind is superior to matter. Discobolus: Not when it comes to serving reports on fleetly sprinting students; but never mind, it doesn't matter. Diana: Not changing the subject at all, where’s Venus? Galahad: I appoint myself a committee of one to investigate the cause of Venus’ absence. (Exit Galahad.) Merlin: Women in distress always were Galahad’s long suit. An exam, in the Ladies’ Study with the girls chewing their pens despairingly drives him crazy. He wants to get down and help the poor damozels. (Enter Galahad with Venus, who weeps copiously.) Diana: Calm yourself, Venus. What’s the matter? Can the rainy dope. Juno: If youwould deign to acquaint us with the causes of your grief, wc could be of more assistance in comforting you. Venus (wiping her eyes on Athena’s mantle, her own being insufficient): Such troubles. My heart’s nearly broken. Why. oh. why. was I the Goddess of Love? Athena: I’m afraid you have been stirring up trouble here as you did in Olympus. What is it? Venus: Well, you know, since Cupid left me. I’ve had to throw my own darts, and my aim is very bad. Humboldt: A Co-ed school and the Goddess of Love hurling darts with a woman’s proverbial aim,—one dangerous combination. Venus: At first I was happy. Most of my arrows hit the wrong persons, but they turned out all right. Then, one after another, my hastily made bonds broke apart. No longer can 1 take delight in Georgie and Gleason haunting the Ladies’ Study until six o'clock, nor does Buddy mark Albert’s tie any more. I used to console myself with George S. and Linnie; when they broke up I was ready to resign. Now they’ve forgiven each other, but I'm still afraid Linnie will seize Bob if she sees the chance. Oh dear! Oh dear! Discobolus: I don’t see how you keep track of Ruth R. or Gwen R. Venus: I confess I don’t. Another thing that drives me wild is the Faculty. Neither by dress nor by actions can I distinguish them from the students. I’m sure I’m not to blame if I pierce some of them by mistake. Diana: I begin to tumble. You are responsible for crushes, then, on the Faculty? Venus: So far I haven’t been able to spear Mr. Hill. He gallops through the Ladies’ Study too fast for anything short of an aeroplane gun or a torpedo to hit him. But I’ll get him yet, if it takes my last arrow. Discobolus: Mr. Hill should be a Marathon runner. He traversed the Indies’ Study in three-fifths of a second yesterday, one-fifth of a second better than his previous record. Diana: So far this record has only been approached by Florence Kensel in fleeing from a reporter, and by Phyl Provost shunning a teacher whose class she had cut. Athena: Well, I could forgive Mr. Hill anything if he only wouldn’t talk so loud. Humboldt: If you think Mr. Hill loudly talks, you should stand where I do and for a time appreciate Mr. Manchester’s lionine roar echoing down the hall. Discobolus: There's a great fuss made about disorder of the students, but in the library the Faculty are there with the noise every time. Plato (Up to this time he has been taking notes for dialogues) : My station is in the library itself. I know how it is. The whole Junior class holding a class meeting 178 can’t make as much noise as Mr. Mitchell coming into the library and finding the windows open. Being firmly prejudiced against fresh air. he immediately traces the cold-in his head to the open windows. Miss Encking naturally does not believe him,—th« Inter-State debaters could get pointers from them. Juno: Why shouldn't they talk, if they want to? What’s the school made for, anyway? (She suddenly notices Discobolus and Hebe, who are fixing up a date.) Discoboliis: Eleven o'clock, then.” Juno: Hebe! (Hebe jumps.) He be: Yes, mother. Juno: Come here. Your behavior amazes me. Humboldt: They lessons have been taking from Sexton. Juno: Hebe, you are not on any account to take part in such behavior as you see every day about you. When you see Albert and Georgiana, shut your eyes. Diana (scornfully) : They ask nothing better. You are too kind.’ Venus: Don’t say that about my proteges and devoted followers. You’re not above criticism yourself. I heard the Faculty speaking just the other day of starting a subscription to buy you some clean clothes. Diana: They'd never do that for me. They wouldn’t have to. Athena: The most they’d have to get would be some face powder. Discobolus: Or whitewash. Venus: That from you. Discobolus: Beat it, friends. Aurora, alias the Janitor, arrives. (They scatter, scrambling wildly to their places.) LATER Janitor (noticing the rim of dust on the pedestals): Hum; couldn’t have dusted that very well yesterday. That old clock has stopped again. I didn’t see that crack on that discus’ arm before. Some of the plaster is ofF Hebe’s face. Well, well. CURT A 1 .V Captured at Last ITS 2. How do you do. Miss Normalite? 5.
