JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL A clear light shining through the vapor falls upon the Junior High School. Here the radiance emanating from those in charge of this department is of a most searching and far-reaching quality. Student teachers as well as pupils share it. The former reflecting and absorbing some of it, the latter benefiting themselves by its influence learn true manhood and womanhood as well as what can be obtained from books. .-I. M.

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

University of Wisconsin; Whitewater Normal PRIMARY In the Normal, theory is the mountain from which we view our work and develop our plans, but practice is the plain where we strive to carry out our ideas. If sometimes we suffer from mountain sickness” in the rarefied atmosphere of the theory department, we may always find relief in that which surrounds the critic teachers. With the expert aid of these teachers we learn to adapt our theories to actual conditions, and through their geniality and example we learn what the attitude of a teacher toward her work should be. The spirit of comradeship of these instructors is felt by the practice teachers as well as by the little children. A. B. Northwestern University Teachers' Training School. Sfrinufield.
