THE QUIVER Nowhere in our school is the influence of the ethereal vapors which surround our faculty more noticeable than in the Industrial Arts Department. While these mystic vapors work their wonders in all classes, a stranger stepping into one of the academic rooms might not become conscious of their presence immediately. Not so in the Industrial building. One no sooner gets inside than he senses a strange atmosphere. At first he may think the whole department a huge playhouse. He feels a note of good fellowship and enthusiasm by the manner in which things are done, and yet there is an earnestness which shows that the students mean business and have a will to do thing? worth while. The influence of the faculty gradually becomes manifest through the clattering of lathes and band saws, the clinking of anvils, and all the satisfying noises of industry. A. B.

At the Libbey House this mystic influence is as actively at work as in any part of the Normal School. Here the mental powers relax somewhat, but the physical spring into activity to produce material results. The students of the Cooking and Sewing Classes soon feel the vapor as it works its way down to the tips of their untrained fingers. They become skillful, and what they accomplish has the qualities of a true work of art. JosiclA. % B. S. University of Wisconsin Twenty-six
