The path of the annual board is a straight and narrow way, and one beset with snares, difficulties and problems. WVe have worked faithfully and conscientiously to overcome these difficulties. XVe have tried to do our best. There are many things which you might have done differently, many you might have added or omitted. With the same feeling We review our Work. It is with certain misgivings that We present this volume to our readers. Impartially we have received and given thrusts If you have received an unjust dig,,' suffer silently with us. ttLaugh and the world laughs with you, Weep and you weep alone. Wfe have endeavored to make this volume redect the school life of the Platteville Normal. Needless to say, our labors have been heavy, yet We shall have done it gladly if the-result meets with your approval. As in all student enterprises we shall feel repaid if you but appreciate our efforts for you. THE ANNUAL BOARD. history of Normal Stbooi All students of the Platteville Normal School are watching with interest the growth of our institution. Each year from the time the Normal was established at Platteville in 1866, there has been decided growth along many lines. From an enrollment of sixty of the old academy the membership has increased to over three hundred. At all times during the growth of the Normal its management has been en- trusted to competent and efficient directors, who held the interests and welfare of the school closely to heart. The growth of the Normal has been gradual and wisely carried on. From the old academy the Normal has grown to be one of the most influential normal schools in the state. When it became necessary to improve the Old Normal to meet existing conditions, an appropriation of 535,000 was made by the legislature in 1903, for additions to the old building. Much more was required to equip the building satis- factorily to meet the pressing demands. This appropriation was held in reserve until 1905, when a further appropriation of SB100,000 was made. VVith the reserve fund of 5B35,000, the new appropriation of iB100,000 and the value of the old building, a modern structure was erected in the vicinity of the old building. The old building is now occupied by the mining school. Last fall, August 26, 1907, the new building was nearly completed and school wa.s begun there regardless of the many inconveniences. During the year the building has been ,completed and modern equip- ment installed in all departments. Many earnest and energetic men and women have labored for the good of the Normal and contributed much to 'thelives of many stu- dents who have graduated or attended. Graduates of this school are exerting their influence in many important walks of life, from laborer to representatives in the state and national governments. Dr. McGregor, ex-president, regent and statesman, ranking among the foremost in the state, has accomplished a work for the Nor- mal School and education equal to that of any other man, and supe- rior to most of them. At the close of a presidency of many years he was chosen as a member of the board of regents and has done most creditable work as representative of this district in the government I6l of the state. For almost forty years he has labored faithfully and unceasingly for the cause of education. To him be given all praise and honor for his untiring efforts in behalf of the Platteville Normal School and the state. At present the direction of affairs at the Normal is under a capable and conscientious leader, Pres. J. W. Livingston. To him much credit is due for his skilful management of the school. A man sincere in all his dealings, a friend of all and a diligent laborer in educational Work. A man of noble character, of thought and personality, who puts his entire being into his school duties. The present faculty is exceptionally strong, represented by a corps of twenty-three experienced teachers. Our new building, complete in every way from ventilating plant to the smallest detail of the laboratories and our facilities for a stronger education have been made possible through the self-sacrificing efforts of the faculty, the president and the board of regents. Well trained, educated men and women go out each year from the Platte- ville Normal to apply themselves in the education and advancement of the race. Q - FFP' I love, thee, Normal, grand and gay, Thy wide portals, thy busy day, ' School life a-surging to and fro, Thou are strong and powerful, I know! Though with studies hard from spring to fall, Thou settest tasks for one and all. Of life you mean so much to me, My love I cannot hold from thee. And still I'll love thee till the last, Thy quiet halls and pleasures past, Thy life a-flowing on and on, O, thou art dear to- me and strong. To- think of thee as Alma Mater, Of work and play, of pleasant story, Of student, teacher, friend and glory, Thy school spirit ever there, This my comfort everywhere. t7l DUNOAN MuHH.hlGOR, A.

They are mere items in the course of school events. The mrnotony of academic life is little disturbed by graduation. Com- mencement day is largely a traditional factor, many schools dropping it altogether. This fact indicates the rapidly decreasing importance of classes as they approach graduation. Therefore the only class enjoy- ing the full confidence and respect cf the faculty and board of regents and the envy of the other classes is the FRESHMAN CLASS. The standing cf classes decreases as graduation clay approaches. The embryonic is always more interesting than the finished product. The above is enough to indicate the lcgic of our position. But there' are people for Whom logic Hliath no charms. For such people We have an .empirical argument. The board of regents some years ago looked off over the territory tributary to the Platteville Normal and saw with prophetic vision the approach of the present FRESHMAN Cmss. E251 IT N ON l-J FRESHMAN CLASS They hied themselves away to Madison, and there made known their discovery to the legislature. Immediately all current business was put aside and a law was passed providing for the construction of a Grand New Normal Buildingt' to be completed in time for this FRESHMAN CLASS. And now the class is here, the building is here, and each has adjusted itself to the other. VVe refrain from recalling the honors which have been heaped upon this class during the year. Vile make no reiteration of their successes and victories. Their sympathies go out to the other classes. The freshman class would not embarrass them by cataloguing their own merits. These are but matters of current events which he who runs may read. They congratulate their sister classes upon the good fortune which has been theirs-namely, to have been in the pres- ence of the FRESHMAN CLASS. iVith condolence for them in their defeats, and toleration for them in their verdancy, the freshman class of 1908 wishes them godspeed. - 'flnfii E171 Fil N OO IT! in .N .S , SOPHOMORE CLASS '. i 5 llfz ' 5131 ,.

Schuster Glass history The class of nineteen-ten has passed through its freshman and soph- omore years with credit, and is now ready to take its place as the junior class. In our freshman year, we gave the first of our annual class parties, took an active part in the rally, in declamatory Work, in athletics and in all events connected with the school. In our sophomore year, we have rejoiced over victory and have suf- fered defeat, but always with the spirit of Progress, not station. E29l NVe will not endeavor to give a class history, but will only chronicle the most important events in the sophomore calendar for the past year. On the evening of October 26th, the sophomores gave a Ha,llowe'en party to the freshmen which varied in entertainment from the classi- cal Oracle of Delphin to ,every-day pocketbook rolls. At the preliminary debate to select the Milwaukee debating team, John Flannigan, a sophomore, was chosen leader of the team over seniors and juniors. Earl Huntington, a sophomore, was elected captain of the 1908 foot- ball team. On the evening of January 17th, the sophomore declama-tory contest was held. First place was awarded WVilliam Livingston and second, Donald Orput. The sophomore basketball team, captained by Clarence Schuldt, Won two games in a series of three from the freshman team, and on Janu- ary 23d met the senior tea.m in a hard-fought contest-score, seniors 18, sophomores 17. The game gave the sophomores second honors in basketball, as the seniors had previously squashed the juniors by a score of 32 to 24. The class of nineteen-ten held its second annual class party Friday evening, January 28th, in the Normal building. All in all this social affair was one for our class to long be proud of. . At the annual rally, the sophomores were there With songs and yells and a first-class appropriate stunt We had the honor to work in close harmony at' this event with the seniors, Whom only do we acknowledge as our superiors. VVith disdain do we look back on the broken-down hay cart, the Hflippity, flap, flap, fiapf' and the soft-soap kettle of the junior 'gcubf' With amusement do we re- member their attempts to yell and sing at the rally. Verily, the junior c'cub is sadly lacking. We hope that after the lesson taught him by the seniors at the rally, he will reform, during the coming year, and become the credit to the P. N. S, of which he is capable. At a meeting of the sophomore boys in March, Raymond Wfilliams was elected captain of the class baseball team. Next fall the membership of the class of nineteen-ten will be doubled by the incoming high school graduates, whom we will heartily welcome to our ranks. In the future, we hope to extend our record of scholarship, class spirit, and good-fellowship to such bounds that it may in some degree repay the gifts we have received from the glorious old P. N.

Ah! distinctly I remember, It was in the bright September, That the daring Juniors entered at the Normal door. In their lessons they grew stronger, Hesitating' there no longer, ' But Arithmetic Reviews they say are quite a bore. In basketball they 're famous, And in football season, too, ' In the band they make a great uproar. Isll R f f Q DAQ? 3 Lehfhf Deep into great learning peering, Long they stood there, wondering, fearing, Even dreaming dreams no mortal Ever dared to dream before. But the silence was unbroken, And the stillness gave no token, For the only Word there spoken NVas of Wallin o'er and olerlg This they Whispered and an echo murmured back once more, The Juniors have the floor. And the Juniors, never turning, All their souls Within them burning, Said, Soon the Seniors' voices will be heard no more.'7 Poor Seniors, how their expectation fell When the Junior stepping forward took the audience by storm One small Junior stepping forward took the audience by storm The Seniors are not in it anymore. Ah! the rare and radiant Juniors, Whom the Faculty adore, They were born for joy, not sorrow. Planning their banquet for the morrow, Bright ideas they did not borrow, For of such they had a store. In the dear old Normal building decorated with such care, The Walls bedecked with splendor, And with cunning teddy bears, Will be equaled never more. Junior classes will seem lonely - Filled by budding Sophomores only, Not one Word of all their learning Could they ever yet outpour, When as Juniors bold, Their story almost told, - A volume ne'er could hold The ideas they 've in store. The bright and shining Juniors The Faculty adore. This is all and nothing more.

At the end of this we found ourselves in a large, poorly lighted chamber, with numerous arches and columns all looking alike to us. After telling all we knew about ourselves and parents, we were given guides to show us all the kinks and crooks of freshman work. By diligent study we soon became able to distinguish between stalac- tites and stalagmites and were happy when our guides told us that we were an exceptionally bright class. Since we were allowed some time for amusement, we gave a feast and invited our guides to partake. We also attended a rally and dis- played our colors, Black and Gold, with more enthusiasm than is expected of freshmen. Our guides, seeing us loaded with drippings and fragments of knowl- edge, gave us passes to the next gallery. As we left the winding passage connecting the two rooms and entered the sophomore realm, we were impressed by the number cf new formations which we thought E34l we never could understand. But under the leadership of our new guides, Geometry, and Physics, soon became things of interest and very essential to the beauty of the cave. These guides were amazed at our ability to make things go,7' a very difficult task at times because we were greatly disturbed by cries and mutterings from the caverns beyond. All we could distinguish were a few phrases as rect and white, mourntvzg and baozfquets. Nevertheless we worked our way among the pillars of knowledge, catching a dripping, now and then, from Um'- reut Events or chipping a thought from a Senior Oratfion. We ha.d our good times and days off and were especially commended on our management and power to settle down to work without delay. . As a reward for patient and careful work, we were moved on to the next apartment and there joined by a bright, earnest crowd of young people entering from another path. 'together we set out to unravel the mysteries offered in the make-up of our new surround- ings, but appearances were deceiving and, before long, none of our guides could puzzle us on the Outline for Rhetoric or the Binomial Theorein, Here our opportunities for social intercourse were increased and we were not slow to make an occasion of each. We again invited our guides to an elaborate feast, took all honors in both declamatory and oratorical contests and announced the Senior Sheet at the Rally. At last we were permitted to enter the last spacious room, one never used before and opened especially for us. -Here we learned the true nature of Senior Orations, Arithmetic Reviews and Psychology. We were greatly disturbed in our work by the odor of burning feathers and fur and at the sound of bur-r-r-r we realized that the Cubs were in the gallery just left by us. Reports of ftzmtmlug and roasting explained their troubles and made our guides appreciate our true worth, and our parties and banquets, our successes at football and basketball and our parade at the Rally only strengthened their feeling of our worthiness. And now, with our journey nearly complete, we leave this cavern and go out into the world to guide others, asking only for influence such as we have felt during our sojourn among these guides. fssl Roxy' Allen I-I.

E523 3112 tigers: At the school of Platteville Normal At the edifice of learning Lived the class of Tiger fame 1908, the black and gold. All around them lived the others, Lived the lambs, bull dogs, and teddiesg Lived the faculty around them. Bright before them gleamed commencement Bright the prospect of the future. There a host of pedagogues Taught that class of Tigers bold, Guided them in their career, Taught them truths so deep and cld, Stilled their jubilance by saying, Hush! the Teddy Bears will hear thee! And in trying to be as brilliant lVill destroy o-ur dignity. Then would say these pedagogues To the underclassmen meek- Who is this that lights theANormal? Vllith their brilliance lights? the Normal? 1908! My Worthy Tigers! i Many members had this bright class, Over sixty numbered all, But from first to last among them Genius showed in la.rge and small. Merrifield, the president, Strong and Wise was, true and loyal, Capable as guide and leader. Then the boys of football fame- Wellers, Byrns, Hindes, Enloe, Lewis, With Jenks as center of the team. In basketball they're right there, too,- George Cleary 's captain of the boys, And Norma Verbeck, of the girls, Among the leaders in debate Are Smith, Warne, and Jenks and Hindes. lssl If you should wish for works of art Tom Jones can please both 'old and young, His praises are on every tongue. Other artists known to all Are Mitchell, Jordon and Irene Smith. In Athenaeum, the presidents, four, Were Tigers bold-why need say more? Halgrim, Huntington and Botsford, too, And Lucy Terrill, these four were they. And is there need for me to portray The work done in Y. W. C. A.'Z Among the leaders there we saw Randall, Schuldt, Iverson and Raw, NVith Reynolds as editor-in-chief, The exponent has won success. And in musical lines we find Such names as Churchill, Gebhart, Blunt With Harris, Reige, Clark, and more. 7 In this class of tiger fame There are dozens more to name- Gladys Baker, with knowledge Vast, Beulah, her sister, with wit, unsurpassed- Roxie Allen, with oration fine, Magdalene Thompson, in the same line, Rottiger and Austin, always together, Hickox, so gay, regardless of weather, Mattie Howell, so small, but oh my! Joyce, whom we'll hear from by and by. Dolly Quick, named rightly, too, Delia. Dull, who has proved hers untrue. Then there 's Stockdale, quiet and wise, Arnot and Calloway do all surprise. IVith Latin standings up in the air Are Edna. Beardsley and Jessie Fair. James McGuire with humor quaint, Florence Kinsman, with brush and paint But hearken ye, my readers kind, There are many more I call to mind- Bryant and Doyle, whom all know well, Florence Burris, hard to excel, l54l Billings, ready for study or fun, Koster, a, friend to everyone, Kinsman, Who's found on the athletic ground McKernan and Wills are also there found, Pitts, in kindergarten Work, Longbotham, ne'er known to shirk, Milton Paul, in Work and fun, Margaret Fawcett, the jolliest one, Sadie Fisher, with jokes by the score, And Mildred Temple, whom all adore, Leone Murley, with thoughtful mien, Vlfeber and Bartle, together seen, Patterson of baseball fame, Then comes studious Rose Braem, Mabel Brown with a smile for all, Mary L. Burris, sedate and tall, Hazel Oclisner, so full of fun, And last but not least comes Anderson. Oh, these glorious Tigers bold Have done Wonders in days of old- But when looms the future bright Witli all their ability and might, Tigers, Seniors, 1908's VVill still rank first, predict the fates! Miss Carpenter the seniors adore, Her praises aloud do they roar. With seniors she stands, For seniors she plans, And ideas does she give them galore. How often the seniors excel And the cubs and lambs rebel. For is it not so, Miss G. makes things go, And Whate'er she does she does well? Essl ALUMNI 5:-A it Wie? VW 's V 5 X 4 N eg g TJ The Alumni Association of the Platteville Normal School is an or- ganization Wliich deserves no small amount of attention. The object of this association is to strengthen and perpetuate the bonds of friend- ship among its members and to promote the interests of the P. N. S. Those who attended the reunion of 1907 held in Platteville and were present at the reception in the old Normal building will often recall pleasant memories of these events. Each year during commencement Week meetings of the association are held, at which time the officers for the ensuing year are elected and other business is conducted. Membership in the association is a privilege extended to each alumnus and all are expected to join and keep the secretary notified in regard to change in address. The spirit of loyalty to the Platteville Normal School should manifest itself among the alumni to as great a degree as it was manifested during Normal days at Platteville. Es6l Wg 1 ll WGBH?

The library is situated in the northwest corner of the second floor, which situation has proven a wise selection. It is well lighted by numerous windows, through which the light from the setting sun pours its radiance. ' Oh, how at the old building, we used to hurry in order to get a seat in the library! How we used to try for the chairs nearest the windows. But now no need of hurry, for there is light and room for everyone. Among some of the new additions to the library are a folio case, a case for pictures, filing case, plenty of bulletin board space, clock, telephone and a, public document room. In the library stands the statue of Moses, which was presented by the class of 707. On the wall hangs the rose picture, which was painted by Miss Wyinaiii, a former teacher, and presented by the class of '02, Although these add greatly to the beauty of the room, there is still space for more. May the future classes follow in the footsteps of their predecessors and leave lasting mementoes in some form to beautify our library. E581 SCENES IN THE LIBRARY E591 feees 5 A550667 IJ: 15N1l0lIUiIf Staff At the beginning of the preceding school year the student body, feel- ing the need of a good school magazine and knowing that a good school paper could result only from united effort and organized support, met and organized under the name of the Platteville Normal Press Asso- cfiatlon. At the very outset a good constitution, determining the number of officers, duties, time, and manner of election of each, and setting forth the general policy of affairs, was prepared and adopted by the or- ganization. All matters of general interest were left to the officers of the asso- ciation .proper, which are a president, a secretary and a treasurer, but such matters as pertain more directly to the publication of the paper were left in the hands of two committees, viz., the editorial staff and the Exponent board. The editorial staff consists of a regularly elected editor-in-chief, a business manager, two assistant business managers and a representa- tive from each of the school organizations. Executive authority is placed in the hands of the executive board, a committee of live, viz., the editor-in-chief, the president of the Press Association, the business manager and two members elected from the staff. E601 The Exponent is about to close its second successful year under this system of management. The pa.per gives valuable training to all who are connected with its publication. It serves to bring the school into closer touch with other schools. It reaches the alumni, makes them think of their own pleasant school days and revives their affec- tions for their old Alma Mater. It establishes a closer feeling of re- lationship between all who are connected with the school. The association is one of the most valuable organizations of the Normal and may every student and alumnus give their support to this organization which influences so much the life of their school. The officers for the coming year are as follows. Gifinrn of tbl: association President . ..... . . Dennis Regan Secretary . . Alice Burns Treasurer . .

It is forty- twoyears of age. The life of this organization began in the year 1866, when the old Platteville Academy was converted into the Nor- mal, but it was not until several yea.rs later that the society adopted the name Philadelphian, by which it has since been known. ,During the irst term of school Mr. Arthur Kopp and Mrs. Dewitt, having been members of the Philadelphian and Anthenaeum societies respectively, appeared before the school and each gave a very excel- lent talk in regard to the conditions and activities of his and her society in times gone by. Mr. Kopp gave many instances Where men who have graduated from this school and succeeded in life, had been active members of the Philadelphian Society. The fundamental purpose of the society is to give young men liter- ary training and to stimulate original thinking and public speaking. For several years it has been the custom to hold at least one de- bate with another normal, and debating has always been a prominent and successful feature of the literary work. This year our team de- bated the Madison Academy on the following question: Resolved, tha.t all corporations engaged in interstate commerce should be in- corporated under the federal governmentfl Constitutionality con- ceded. To the class of 1908 we will say: Go out into life and apply your- selves like you did in the Philadelphian Societyfi To those who re- main: Take up the work and carry it on with an aim to make this organization a greater power for good in our schoolfl l63l Iii Ox -P lil iabilavclpijfau iirzsfliwts John Warne James Wallin E.

The following were the presidents of the society for the past school year: First quarter, Margaret Huntingtong second quarter, Anna Halgrimg third quarter, Frances Botsfordg fourth quarter, Lucy Ter- rill. Numerous joint meetings have been held with the Philadelphian Society, the most interesting of which was held on March 20th, the night of the inter-normal oratorical contest. The meeting was a mock oratorical ccntest and the audience was divided to represent the va,- rious normals of the state. Everything was well carried out and the program was bright and witty.

E67l PM 1' Perhaps the most important organization of which the Platteville Normal School is proud, is the Oratorical Association. This association consists of a.ll the students of the school and its purpose is to promote oratory, declamation and debate among the stu- dents and in inter-normal contests. Platteville has always been in the first ranks of the normal schools of the state in all lines of inter- normal contest and this year has proven that she can still be classed as a worthy competitor. At the beginning of the year the association elected the following officers, who have managed the business of the association throughout the year: President, George Cleary, '08, vice president, Homer Smith, '08, secretary, Allen Jenks, '08, and treasurer, James Wal- lin, '09. There are three lines of oratorical work which have been conducted this year by the Oratorical Association, the class declamatory con- tests, oratorical contests and debating. On four different dates during the fall and winter of the past year the class contests were held at the Normal. A large number of contest- a.nts Went into these contests and made them the best which were ever held by the Normal School. In the senior contest Roy Patterson and James Maguire were selected to represent the class in the inter- class contest. Alice Burns. and Marion Mitchell were chosen to repre- sent the juniors., Will Livingston and Donald Orput to represent the sophomores, and William Ellerman and Alice Doyle to represent the E681 , .. ,.- Ceo Cleary, Pres. Homer Smith, Vice Pres. Allen Jenks, Secy. James Vlfallin, Treas freshmen. On Friday evening, April 24, the inter-class contest was held at Normal Hall. The contest was very good and the decision Well rendered, giving first place to Alice Burns, '09, and second place to Roy Patterson, '08. On Friday evening, February 24, the local oratorical contest was held. The judges awarded the places as follows: James Wallin, first place 5 John Wa.rne, second place, George Cleary, third place. At this contest the excitement ran high, but it did not reach its cli- max until the rally which was held Tuesday evening, March 17. The purpose of a rally is to Work up enthusiasm for the inter-normal con- test, and more enthusiasm was shown at the rally than the people of Platteville had ever seen before. The parade was led by the school band of 22 pieces. Next came the seniors amidst a grand display of fireworks and colors, riding in beautifullyldecorated vehicles. The senior section was headed by an open carriage in which rode the class officers carrying a large life sized Tiger Qthe class symboll. The car- riage was surrounded by mounted torch-bearers who conducted them through Main street and thence to the city hall. Every senior rode in grand style. Behind the seniors came a hayrack loaded with juniors, While the rest of the class walked. The other classes followed the juniors. At the opera house the seniors again showed their superiority over the other classes and gave a very beautiful stunt. 'The other classes also had good stunts and decorations and proved themselves worthy competitors. i69l 7 When Platteville's delegation left for Superior the band went with them. The money necessary for this trip was furnished by the Ora- torical Association, the students, the faculty and business men. Platte- ville is the most distant normal school from Superior, but at thefinter- normal contest Which' was held there March 20, we had the largest visiting delegation. Mr. WVallin represented his school adniir- ably and won third place. It was the opinion of many at Superior that he deserved either first or second place. The association also conducted two debates this year. They were held Friday evening, March 27, at Whitewatei' and Milwaukee Nor- mals. Although 'Plattevile lost both debates they have won honor and standing in the line of debate. The decision in both caseswas two to one against Platteville. ' The Oratorical Association has accomplished much but it lacks in some respects. It needs a definite constitution and by-laws a.nd should have the enthusiastic support of every member. JAMES WALLIN, Our Orator l71l - - ' I x f xxx fi R fl QT T 'li O O O ' 9 TJUNGS One of the most helpful organizations of our school is the Young Woman's Christian Association. Our aim is to interest the girls in good, earnest, Christian Work, Our enrollment being ninety, speaks for itself of the interest taken. ' NVe are the proud possessors of an Association room, which We have begun furnishing, by the purchase of an organ. Within the next year We hope to- complete the furnishing. i Our association was advanced greatly the past year under the lead- ership of the following cabinet: President, Florence Wickershaim, vice president, Alma Schuldt, secretary, Margaret Huntington, treas- urer, Alma Fuller, chorister, Florence Oettikerg organist, Clara Schambovv, chairman Bible study committee, Leone Murley, chair- man missionary committee, Ellen Glen, chairman devotional commit- tee, Elsie Carl, chairman social committee, Norma Verbeckg chairman poster committee, Claudia Jordan. At the beginning of the fall term a change was made in the cabi- net, owing to the absence of tvvo of the members. Much credit is due our poster chairman and her helpers. Each Week We are greeted by a beautiful and appropriate poster. The girls are divided into neighborhood Bible circles, which are taking up the life of Paul. We hold a meeting each Thursday at four o'clock. One meeting each month is given to missionary, one to devotional and two to- Bible study. ' Owing to the unfinished condition of the building at the beginning of the year, we were unable to give our usual socials. But We held a, E721 'Miss Carl Miss Murley Miss Schambow Miss Oettiker Miss Jordan Miss Fuller Miss Scliuldt Miss Wickershani Miss Huntington Miss Verbeck Christmas bazaar, at which a neat sum was realized. The social life of the organization is one of the leading factors, and We hope to keep it up. . This year, owing to the fact that Wisconsin has no state secretary, We did not receive our usual visit. But we had the pleasure of hav- ing Miss Weeks, the Illinois state secretary, with us, March 26 and 27. She spoke to us at our Weekly meeting and left With us many thoughts and suggestions, one of which is 4'Do not call your Young Woman's Christian Association 'Y. W.,' but call it 'Association' 'Y. W.' are merely letters, and 'Association' means so much. This year instead of holding the usual convention of all members of the various associations, a conference of only the cabinet members was held at Madison. Our association was represented by the cabinet girls. Much good was derived from this meeting, and the girls brought back many suggestions and a fuller realization of what our assocfiatfiooz means. We hope to send a delegate to the summer conference, which is to be held at Lake Geneva at the beginning of the next school year. Our new cabinet has been elected and is taking up its duties in the right spirit y toward success. D E731 iliamtal Ztrafuiug Dwartnufut No department of the Normal experienced greater change in pass- ing from the Old to the 'fNew than did the Manual Training department. In the old building this department occupied one of the smallest rooms in the building. The shop was crowded. No storage rocm had been provided. Lumber and pieces under construction were stored in the narrow hall leading to the shop. In the new building the department occupies a large room on the iirst tloor. In the west side of the room is the shop pro-per. Here are twenty single work benches. In the east side of the room cases have been built for exhibition purposes and for storing material used by -the different grades. Two smaller rooms adjoining are used as stock rooms for storing lumber and other material needed for the work ef the department. I . Besides the-common tools needed, the shop is now equipped with a. power saw, a. band saw, an engine lathe, and a wood turning lathe. A six horse-po-wer gasoline engine supplies the power for these machines. A forge has also been installed. Manual training is- given in all grades of the practice school. In the primary and intermediate grades work in paper, textile, clay and wood is given. The seventh and eighth grades make apparatus, and design and construct furniture. Bookbinding and sheet metal work have also- been done in these grades, and more along these lines, as well as the introduction of pottery is planned for. The instruction in the primary and seventh and eighth grades has been under the direc- tion of student teachers. This year a. larger number of students from the normal department have taken work in manual training than in former years. Three classes have li-een organized: one in elementary woodwork, one in ad- vanced woodwcrk, and one in lines of work' adapted to the primary and intermediate grades. Thus far the work done by the normal students has been optional and given cnly to the stronger students as an extra. It is hoped that manual training will be made a part of the regular normal courses, and that students be given credit in this work to the same extent as in other normal school studies. Much credit is due to- Mr. Russell, director of manual training, for the success of this department. His energy and zeal have secured for the Platteville Normal one of the best manual training departments in the state. With such a man at the head of the department, the Normal can hope for great progress in the line of manual training. I74ll VIENVS OH' THE MANUAL TRAINING ROOM E751 INOUBATOR AND BROODER CMANUAL TRAINING, E761 KINDERGARTEN ax , . Q In the construction of the new Normal building, provision was made for a fourth department, that of the kindergarten, to be added to the training school. The kindergarten was organized at the opening of school last fall and has increased steadily in size and interest. e This department stands for educational ideals and rea.lities. The work of the kindergarten is based upon World principles, profoundly set forth by Froebel, and it is not saying too much to add that each day it has reaped practical results in child development. Dr. Wm. T. Harris has said: Froebel is the educational reformer who has done more than all the rest to make valid in education what the Germans call the developing method. Development is produced by self-activity. This word self-activity gives the keynote to our new department. Not only has the school adopted the kindergarten, but the kinder- garten children have claimed the Normal School for their own. VVhen they gave their public program they proudly wore their little pen- nants and flourished Normal colors. This foretells of loyal and en- thusiastic students for the future. It is with some degree of pride that Platteville announces that she has had a year of kindergarten work in her Normal School, and that the new department has promising prospects for the future.

E831 dtijlztic Qnaosiatfou The-Athletic Association of the Platteville Normal is comparatively a new organization. Although its history covers an interva.l of only a few years it has been a. great factor in the life of the Normal. The privilege of signing the constitution is extended to all male members and they thereby become members of the association. The officers of the association are president, vice president, secre- tary and treasurer. These officers, together with the faculty com- mittee and the football and baseball managers and captains, consti- tute the athletic board, which prosecutes the business of the assooia.- tion. All schedules and all rules governing athletics are considered by the board. The athletic association of the Normal also has charge of the high school field meet held in Platteville each year. Much at- tention is given this event by the Normal. This year the board has taken particular pains to make this event better than any preceding and equal to any in the state. No small amount of labor has been spent by the Normal association in making preparations for it. The regulations which govern participants in any athletic event are very rigid. The aim of the board is to establish in the student a proper relationship between athletics and school enterprise in general. No one is permitted to- play on any team who is not up in his regular school work or who does not show the proper spirit toward his fellow athletes and to the school. The Athletic Association has done much the past year in raising the standard of athletics of the Platteville Normal. This year they have been successful in every way. Better schedules have been given, better teams have taken part and more interest has been shown and more support given than at any previous time. A record has been made this year which has had no equal. This past year athletics have won a prominent place in school life.. The organization is more compact and inclusive. All branches of athletics now come under the control of theboard. To faithful, consistent individual effort and above all co-operation on the part of the athletic board and the Normal students this prog- ress is due. In the future let every one, who can assist in any way, give support to this cause which is so important in the development of the individual and to the school, E8-il The past year in athletics has been one of the most successful in the history of P. N. S. The excellent school spirit, our new gymna- sium, the support given by the school by both teachers and students, the untiring efforts of Prof. Russell and the athletic board, and above all the manliness, vigor, spirit and true sportsmanlike conduct shown by our representatives, have contributed greatly to the success of the year's athletics. Clean playing, fair and square fighting, playing with a determina- tion to win until the very last second of the game, and taking defeat or victory nobly, mark a. player as a gentleman and a person of good character. s These have always been the attributes of our Normal players. Ath- letics from this standpoint alone would be worth while and a.dd much to the development of a better school. Perhaps one of the greatest causes of our success in athletics is our true Platteville Normal spirit. This spirit was much in evidence during the year, and served to give stimuli to all lines of athletic work. Here is a. place where every student, both large and small, can help make things a success. Those who are able can help by touch- downs, scores or baskets. Many, however, cannot play in our games because of lack of muscle and skill, but every cne of us can show our true Norma.l spirit and encourage the players and give them the needed support. Q n We have done much in this line by contributions and good rousing cheers and songs. But there can be more done, which, if accom- plished, will give new impetus and greater life to our athletics. Much credit should be given to Prof. Russell and the athletic board for our athletics. Prof. Russell has worked unceasingly in prepar- ing good schedules and coaching basketball, and a goodly share of praise belongs to him because of his efforts to- encourage and promote athletics. The athletic board a.lso deserves much credit for its splendid guid- ance and management of athletics in the P. N. S. Athletics, during the first year in our new Normal building, have certainly been a grand success. A high standard has been raised for those in the future classes to excel. But from the knowledge and experience gained by the players this year and from the promising material in the lower classes, we may safely conclude that the ideal will be nearly reached and that athletics in the P. N. S. will be a far grander success than ever before. E851 NEWS Boom An important feature in the history of athletics in the P. N. S. oc- curred March llth. Mr. Charles Wellers, captain of the football team of 1907, in behalf of the football boys, presented the school with a fine, nicely framed picture of the football team with the scores of the games neatly printed in one corner. This is to start what is to be known as a Relic Ro-om where trophies of our successes may be kept and where pictures of the va- rious organizations may be placed. These relics will serve to revive old memories when our graduates return to visit the Normal, and will serve to stimulate the undergraduates to achieve success- far greater than those before them have done and leave their memen- toes as something to be especially proud of in the histo-ry of Normal athletics. The relic room is now started and we hope to see a. special room set aside for that purpose in the near future.. A :presentation of ivy On Wednesday morning, Dec. 18th, opening exercises were con- ducted by Prof. NVilliams. In a few well chosen words he ex- pressed his interest in athletics and told some of the benefits de- rived from them. Prof. VVilliams believes that athletics is a.n incen- tive for study and gave facts showing that the people who partici- pated in athletics were among the best students in school. The boys who had won their official letter were called forward and each boy was presented with a large Normal blue P as a token of honor and esteem for the work which he had done in athletics. This is a custom which has existed in the P. N. S. for the last four or five years. If more importance were attached to the presenting of the official letter, those receiving this emblem, Well earned on many hard fought lields, would look upon it as something of which to feel justly proud. Another goal would thus be added toward which our athletes might strive and in this way greater stimulus would be given' to athletics. we vi J' f ,gf fp-x W Z!!! if X f rf? sf - fe -- f .,gi1e-f M 'e 9 i X . 1 T ,f75f Y' , , '- l,.f.i5'f f l wi x. -3,136 Ro Rl 1 I Ziff?

N. S. Coaching themselves, winning from the championship high school team of Iowa, showing Lancaster to be completely outclassed, beating St. Joseph's, one of the best col- lege teams in Iowa, in a hard-fought game, tieing the fast Janesville high school eleven, playing circles around the Fennimore town team and lastly playing the De Kalb Normals to a standstill, this is the record of our football team. Early in the fall it was decided that we would have a football team. Captain Wellers called for recruits and twenty-five of Platte- ville Normal's most stalwart boys appeared on the gridiron. Wellers, with the help and suggestions of his team mates, worked out new plays and revised old ones to suit the new rules and soon a well developed and well trained team was the product of their combined labors. This team went through the season without defeat, which shows that the Normal boys have initiative and can make a success of a thing when they once decide to do so. The outlook for a strong team next fall is promising. There is much good material in school, many of the boys having played on the 1907 team. Under the leadership of Earl Huntington, who was elected captain for next year, this material will be worked into a very good team. Let their highest efforts be to equal the fine record made by the team of 1907. E8 7l I I OO OO l..I THE NORMAL FOOT BALL SQUAD normal gyfoot Ball Squaw First row from left to right. D. Regan A. W.

' Jaffe: ki -:tr Basketball has held a place among Normal athletics this year, due mainly to our new gymnasium and the efforts of Prof. Russell. In the old building we were seriously handicapped because of the size of the gymnasium. Since entering the new Normal we have a large gymnasium, which permits of better, faster and more open playing and has a spectators' gallery. Prof. Russell Worked hard coaching and organizing teams and get- ting a schedule. As a result much interest and enthusiasm was arcused and many good games were played. We look forward to next year as an excellent one in basketball owing to the fact that many players who received valuable experience this year will try for next year's team. Basketball is far superior to other sports because it can be played indoors in any kind of weather and can be played by both boys and girls. NVe hope that many, both boys and girls, will try for the first teams next year and make basketball one of the best and mcst popular lines of athletic interest for both players and spectators.

On Friday, Feb 7th, the Normal 'ffive met the Monroe Cardinals at Monroe. This was the first big game for most of the P. N. S. play- ers and this, coupled with the fact that Platteville had to play in a large gymnasium on a waxed floor, spelled defeat for the P. N. S. Hfivef' Both sides played a clean, fast game. Score, 49-21. The return game was played Feb. 21st, when the Normal team clearly outplayed the Cardinals. Platteville played a fast game and the Cardinals, although one of the best teams in southern Wisconsin, were at a loss to kncw how to handle such a quick, snappy bunch as the Normal Hive, and were defea.ted, 57-23. We hope to have several games with the Cardinals next year, as they are a clean, fast crowd of players, sportsmanlike in every way and players who can meet either victory or defeat with good grace and a smiling and happy face. Friday, March 13th, proved an unlucky day for the P. N. S. five Whitewater had a fast, rough team and defeated our boys in a hard fought game, 49-25. Besides the games with outside teams, nine teams were organized among the Normal boys and many good games were played. With such a start as this surely basketball in the P. N. S. will be a success.

On January 17th the first team went to Monroe and played against the Monroe high school girls. A waxed floor and a gymnasium much larger than that to which they were accustomed placed the girls at a serious disadvantage and so they were defeated, 30-4. March 27, the return game was played with Monroe, in the Normal gymnasium, but again Monroe defeated the Normal team, 26-10. The game was very fast and exciting but the Monroe girls had the advantage of being much taller and stronger, thus making the game very difficult for the Normal girls. ization' football In October the senior 'feleven played a team picked from the best players in the rest of the school. Much interest and class spirit was aroused and the Tigers were out in full force to cheer their team to victory. The game was- called at 4:15 and it could be plainly seen from the first that the seniors had a stronger and faster team than the 'cSchool- boysf, Vllithin the first five minutes of play Captain Wellers carried the ball over the line for a touchdown. Byrns kicked goal. Score, 6-Of After this the '4Schoolboysl' braced up and played a somewhat bet- ter game. Just before the end of the Hrst half Byrns got away for a touchdown and kicked goal. The first half ended with the score 12-O in favor of the Tigers. The second half was hotly contested. Backward and forward, up and down the field the ball was rushed, neither side seeming to have the advantage. Finally Hindes, by a fake play, sprinted down the field for another touchdown. During the rest of the game neither side scored. The game ended with a final score of 17-O in favor of the seniors. On Nov. 26th, the Schoolboys again tried to subdue the Tigers. And again they fa.iled. The game was faster than the previous one and showed that Earl Huntington, captain of the Schooll3o-ys, is capable of organizing a. good team. During the iirst half the seniors carried the ball to the Schoolboys' 7' 15-yard line, where Byrns kicked a field goal. f9Sl In the second half many fumbles occurred because of darkness. The only time that the Schoolboys might have scored was when they reached the seniors' 15-yard line. Here the Tigers held them for downs. Hindes then made a sensational run of 75 yards, passing all the Schoolboysl' and scoring the last touchdown of the game. Byrns kicked an easy goal. The game soon had to be stopped because of darkness, thus preventing the seniors from running up a. larger score. Every member of the senior team deserves much credit for the suc- cess of the team. There were no stars and every man was in every play during the whole game. This showed that the Tigers had power to work together and by so doing could defeat the combined efforts of the other three classes. 1 The Tiger line up: C ....... A. Jenks R. E. . . Cleary L. G. . .

As soon as the football season was over, class teams were organized. The juniors challenged the seniors and Jan. 9th was decided upon as the date of the first game. The underclassmen looked upon the '08 team as a huge joke. The boast was made that the seniors could play football but they would never win a single game in basketball. The Tigers, nothing daunted, trusted that Practice makes perfect and He who laughs last laughs best and to this end practiced diligently night after night. At last the eventful night of J an. 9th was at hand. The Cubs were first 0-n the field with a revised P. N. S. band of junior members. After a few selections by the band the Tigers appeared, not coniident of winning as were the Cubs, but determined to- iight till the last. Soon the game was on and neither side seemed to have the advantage. The first half ended 11-11. At the beginning of the second half Enloe, who received a, blow on the head, was unable to play. McKernan was substituted and played good ball. Before the second half had fairly started the Tigers were in the lead. They played with a vengeance and seemed determined that the Cubs should not take the lead. The Cubs, though fighting hard,.went down to defeat and the game ended with a final score of 32-24 in favor of the seniors. The next class game occurred on J an. 23d, when the Tigers met the sophomores. The '10 team had played a Winning series with the freshmen and as the Tigers had beaten the Cubs, the winners of this contest would be the best team in school. For this reason both sides put forth their best efforts and class spirit was at its highest. The game was hotly contested throughout. Virgil Vilillis played the star game for the sophs and if it were not for him the '10 team would have been badly defeated. The final score of 17-18, though close, showed the superior playing of the Tigers. By this victory the seniors claim the championship of the school. XVe should give most of the praise to Capt. Cleary for he, with the help of the whole class of '08, turned out a successful team. The Tiger line up: C. ....... Reynolds L. F. . . . . Byrus L. G. . . . . Patterson R. F. . . Cleary Ccaptj R.

The basketball team defeated the juniors and also the sophomcres. The freshmen were outclassed in a game with the sophomores, therefore the seniors are the champions. Heroically have they defended the black and gold. By hard practice and team wcrk they have won the champion- ship of the classes. They fought like Tigers for the honor of the class they love.

If a campus could be obtained closer to the Normal building the time spent in going to and from the fair grounds could be spent in practice. This would also permit a larger number of supporters to Watch the practice of the team. Much credit is due to Prof. Russell and Capt. Enloe for the success of the team. Several good games Cf baseball have been played this spring. On Saturday, April 18, the Normal team met the Lancaster High School nine and were defeated, 1-0. The game, as the score indicates, was a close one. The P. N. S. redeemed themselves on Thursday, April 30, when they defeated the Lenox College team, 2-3. This was a fast game, both sides playing good ball. The second game between Lancaster High School and the P. N. S. was played at Lancaster on May 2. The game was a snappy one but the Normals went down to defeat. Score, 5-2. On Saturday, May 9, the Normal team played the Dodgeville High School nine and won by a. score of 1-3. The game was hotly con- tested and both sides played good ball. D031 Probably the fastest game played by the P. N. S. team this season occurred at Dubuque on Saturday, May 16. The St. Joseph 'S College team is a fast bunch of players and is one of the best that the Normal nine Will meet this year, Score, 4-O. The Normal team defea.ted Milton College on May 22, with a score of 4-2. The next day, May 23, they were defeated at Wliiteixfatei' by the Whitewater team. The game resulted in a score of 4-2.

S. has gained along musical lines is well known all over the state and it is no exaggeration to say that the musical department this year has been better than ever before. On Friday morning of each week a musical program is given and the number of visitors always present shows how much these recitals are enjoyed by all. The various musical organizations take part in them and the best talent from the school and city is also represented, The chorus, numbering over 300 voices, has done excellent work under the leadership of Prof. Churchill with Mrs. Grindell as accom- panist. XVe are certainly fortunate in having such a capable man at the head of the musical department and the work done in the Train- ing School under his supervision proves that the methods used are the best. All the students were glad to welcome Mrs. Grindell back after her long absence of last year and it is to be hoped that she will re- main in the school for many years to come. twsl Those who have used the collection of children's songs written by Prof. Churchill and Mrs. Grindell will be delighted to know that another book is being published this year. This one is entitled f'Churchill-Crrindell Song-Book No. 2, and from what we know of the first book, can safely predict that the new songs will be most suc- cessful. H. G. UBI? Qttflfdli 60602118 A new musical organization this year is the Ceeilian Quartet and it is by far the best ladies, quartet the P. N. S. has had for several years. They have sung at various social events at school besides ap- pearing on programs in the city and have always pleased their au- diences everywhere. The members are: Bessie Churchill, first so- prano, Clara Beers, second soprano , Florence Oettiker, first alto , Ger- trude Cfuiden, second alto. Ziovmal mvcbmtra I One of the organizations of the school that has made a name for itself is the Normal Orchestra. This orchestra was organized five years ago and has been advancing rapidly since that time. It has made rapid strides this year and the prospects are very bright for the future. Three of its present members will not be among them next year but we are sure that there is plenty of good material in school to fill the vacancies. Our orchestra has appeared before the school many times this year and also before the public. They are always ready and willing to help. Nile hope that this organization will continue to advance in the future as ra.pidly as it has in the past and we have every reason to believe that its progress will not be retarded. The members are: Pianist, Helen Gebhart, first violin and director, Prof. Churchill, first violin, Lulu Rundell, Raymond Willia.ms, Reuben WVhipple, sec- ond violin, Sadie Sehmit, Will Ellerman, clarinet, Chauncey Van- derbie, E. O. Anderson, first cornet, Floyd Churchill, second cornet, Edward Livingston, trombone, George Cleary, bass viol, Orville Cur- keet, drum and traps, Roscoe Vanderbie.

Platteville Normal has always been very proud of her band, as it has, until just recently, been the only Normal School band in the state. They always prove to be the greatest attraction wherever they go and well do they deserve the attention given them. Although the Inter-Normal contest this year was held at Superior, the school raised money to help send the band, as it is the best possi- ble representation the school could have. Our band is always rea.dy to lend its support to the various enter- prises undertaken by the school and furnishes music for the basket- ball games, contests, football games, etc. This organization has appeared on Friday morning programs dur- ing the year and it is needless to say that their splendid work was ap- preciated by all who heard them. The band, this year, is under the management of Mr. L. Vanderbie. He is certainly just the right man for that office, as is shown by his splendid work and his interest in the welfare of the band. A school band is very hard to keep up, for the membership is con- stantly changing, but we now have the Kid Band to fall back upon, so we will not lack material in the future. The instrumentation of the band is as follows: Solo cornets, F. F. Churchill, leader, F. V. Churchill, vice presi- dent, Edgar Runkel, Clarence Blanchard, first cornets, Le Roy Geach, Conrad Peterson, second eornet, Dennis Regan, clarinets, Chauncey Vanderbie, E. O. Anderson, Vx7ill Murphy, altos, John Lund, Reuben Whipple, Frank Rundell, Melville Ransom, tubas, John Tiedermann, secretary, Harold Dyer, trombones, George Cleary, treasurer, John W'arne, iRichard Monroe, piccolo, Vllalter Paulson, drums, Raymond Wlilliams, Roscoe Vanderbie, baritone, Edward Runkel. Gm juan auartcttz The ma.le quartette, under the direction of Miss Jennie Weitten- hiller, appeared before the school this year and gave very creditable programs. This quartette is not wholly a. Normal organization, but three of the members are at present attending school and the other member and director are former students. The members are: First tenor, Charles Weitteiiliiller, second tenor, Homer Smith, first bass, George Merrifield, second bass, John Lund. D081 EDU IMF Batt!! Much enthusiasm has been shown among the boys this year over the organization of a kid band. The school was- greatly surprised when, one Friday morning, twenty young boys made their iirst appearance before the public. Their pro- gram was a great success and they certainly deserve our heartiest C0111- mendation. Platteville Normal need have no fear for her future band, for these boys are rapidly attaining the requirements necessary for member- ship in the regular Normal band. Following are the members: Director, Prof. F. F. Churchillg cornets, Edward Livingston, John May, James Gentleg clarinets, Roscoe Vanderbie, Will Livingston, Forest Harkerg altos, Norris Botsford, Harold Gasser, Robert Bent- leyg trombones, Lewis Cleary, Richard Monroe, NVarren Allen, Joe Mc- Kennag baritones, Richard Nicklas, Delbert Calloway 5 tuba, Harold Dyerg drum, Henry Eastman.

IZIIOJ the ization' ibimtc The Amoeba Aphasia Club C otherwise known as the senior girlsb invited the senior boys to a picnic on May 8th, at the Rountree branch. In accepting the invitation of the young ladies, the boys challenged them to a baseball game. The girls took up the idea with enthusiasm and great excitement reigned. Two o'clock found them all ready to start. On arriving the ball game was begun in earnest. The boys soon found that they were 'tup against it and, of course. laid it to the umpire, whom they tried both by persuasion and force to remove, but to no avail. The girls ran in score after score cheered on by cries of, '4Who are? Who are? NVl1o are We? We are- We are- A. A. C. Many star hits and home runs were made and at the close of the game the score stood 23-13 in favor of the girls. Foot-races and jumping occupied part of the afternoon. Then all did justice to the bountiful supper which had been provided. Much merriinent prevailed during the supper hour. P. J. L. was heard to remark, Say, but I'd like to know the girl who made this cake I YV. B. murmured, Gee, I haven 't had as much to eat as this in a Week! After all had eaten until another mouthful was an impossibility, Margaret Huntington, as toast mistress, cleverly introduced the fol- lowing tcasts: TO THE BOYS. What are Junior boys made of? Made of snaps and snails And puppy dogs' tails, That's what Junior boys are made of. VVhat are Senior boys made of? Made of sugar and spice And everything nice, ' 'l'hat's what Senior boys are made of. 'ill7J fi! O0 ITI THE 'PIGICHS FEAST TO TI-IE BOYS. NORMA VERBECK. To the boys-the Senior boys!

LIZZIE MITCHELL. In foreign lands, 'mid forests wild, A savage beast did roam. In jungles dark, this beast did lurk, In his solitary home. He roamed about, and in and out For beasts of prey to find. His gory jaw and clutching claw Revealed a brutish mind. But Darwin saw in his great law The power to evolute, And now behold-the tige enrolled To teach the young to shoot! His instincts wild are reconciled By winning Normal fame. There all the cubs and other dubs Revere his noble name. His time is spent, with much intent On philosophy of.ed. He works at trig, and dares to dig Where others fear to tread. Izizij Then here 's to health, and here's to wealth Of the tiger's black and gold, May he Win fame for the noble name He held in days of old. Impromptu toasts were given by Homer Smith, XVill Byrns and George Merrifield in reeponse to the following: Here 's to the girls with their powder and eurls, The girls of nineteen eight. May they ever be happy, and never be snappy To the one Who is their fate. Here is to Miss Carpenter whom We all love, May the years rest lightly on her tresses, May her pupils all know ' And never make guesses. Here's to the Club with the awful name, They are all spinsters standing in line, . But give them a chance and they will be thine. In the evening a huge bonfire was built and the Tigers se nt a de- P lightful time about it singing and giving their yells.

At last as years Went fleeting by My friends began to leaveg By twos and twos, they settled down In wedded bliss, to live. 4 Ah! then-no words could then describe The horrors of it all- Alone-alone-all, all alone On this celestial ball. I felt my pulse grow hot and fast, The spirit in me move Something quick! I raved and eraved For something I could love! He came at last. So large and strong! A stranger in the town. My heart went out and he returned His love for my own. I'29l I-Iis hair was black and shiny, too- I-Iis eyes were soft and brown, The people called him handsome, too, This stranger in the town! But jealous neighbors sometimes talked And said he roamed at night, I-Ie sang beneath my window In the calm, bright moonlight. Ah! happy mortal was I then, No pleasures need I seek. At times his long black moustache I!V0uld-tickle-ah-my-cheek. One night-he had left me- But scarce had he gone Wlien cries of distress Caine up from the la.wn. My blood froze with terror- My face paled with fright- I!Vith trembling footsteps I went into the night! I found him there dying, No mortal could save My treasure, my darling, From the jaws of the grave. But one look of pity Toward me he cast, My arms were about him, I-Ie then breathed his last. Alone, alone, once more alone, In sorrow then I cried- My old true self I've never been Since my old. Tom cat died! 'K PK 24 Pk 24 D3 OI I lay my -many books aside, And gently sigh, Oh, mammal For now, you know, for studying so I've gotten my diploma. The worn old books are lost and gone Or laid upon the shelf, My work is done, my task is o'er, l'm now my happy self. And now I live in happiness, Conscious of work well done, But only think, and don't forget, My work has just begun. ' F8285 l've forgotten, I've forgotten, The things I ought to know, For here at Platteville Normal, I've helped to make things go. I'll remember, I'll remember, Just how I tried to bluff. But all in vain,-I confess My way was mighty rough. Here's to the bunch they call cubs, Who 'thought that the Tigers were scrubs. It happened one day They football did play, And there 's where the cubs got their rubs. There was a young fellow named Geach, Who thought Stella. B. was a peach. His one great stunt Was to- be with Miss Blunt, And this he did like a leech. , There was a young fellow named Byrns, Who toward a Jennie did turn. This Bobby got rash, At last came a crash, And Jennie talked back to her Byrns. Dall ,mfs-fffs PLH1-'E NED?

PRoNoUNs. These here are excuses for nouns and are showed in this classic ode: Be she gone, am she went Are she left I all alone? If her don't coine back to I, Me will have to go to she, , It must not was. Verbs is the life of the sentence. He done it. I seen him. Done and seen are verbs. I ain't as dumb as him. Prepositions are nuisances and they ain't good words to end a sen- tence with. Conjunctions are words that join things together. Preachers ain't conjunctions, howsomever. E13 3l P. N. S.

Then this Miss Verbeck so jolly, Did her work without any folly, She would if she could, And could when she would, Hurrah for Miss Norma, By Golly! There was a young lady, Gladys Baker, Who for her sister you7d take her, When not seen together, You'd wonder whether This was Gladys or Beulah Baker. There was a professor named Wilgus, Cf true worth without any bogus, This man always is About his own biz, And certainly knows how to teach us.

VVhy must We work for our daily bread, To be only forgotten when We're dead? The World-what a hard old place in which to live, Its demands are great and you always have to give, Till you almost swear and can hardlyubelieve That ltwere your lot at blessing to receive. But after all for us it is only Wise To share the beauty both of earth and skies, Thinking that although you're in a horrible place You'd better get up and join in the race. Be useful, then, to each and all, With those you meet, both great and small. Cheer some sad heart, be patient and take What fate for you may chance to make. Live, laugh and love and do not grind, To those vvhoin you nieet be ever kind, And when life is done a name yu'll have Won, And for good in the World, you 'll score for one. -Auony llssl iionms ou the tiger The tiger is the best, you know, Of all the creatures here below, But soon he'll be with them above, Where tigers nieet and all is love. The tiger is an animal That has a striped tail, Next year he will go out to teach And little children whail. Tiger is a fine old sport, Always on the top. Couldn't find a better sort, Teddy better stop. Tiger Tiger Bully! He enjoys himself fully. He's the best one in school And he ain't no fool. The lion is the king of beasts And well he deserves his name, But you take a tiger and twist his tail And he'll get there just the sanie. Sing aloud the tiger's praise, Let every voice ring out, For tiger's faine is all the craze, The tiger knows what he's about. Here's to the Senior Tiger, A beast sedate and wise, Wlio always wins great success In everything he tries. E13 61 There was a good man called J. NV., NVho often took pains. to trouble you. On one Monday inorn He had a brain storin, And advised us to go to U. W. Channing young lady, Edna Byrne, For her an Allen did yearn. This Allen one night, Said with delight, c'I'1n just going up to Byrne. There was a young fellow named Cleary, Also another called Merry, They both had girls, Wlioin they likened to pearls, And often with thein did they tarry. There was a young inan called IVill, He'd eliinbed to the top of the hill. He thought himself wise, And higher would rise, - And Will gained his will with a will. Have you seen that fellow named Ellsworth Q? His thoughts always ran for the money 's worth. Iiike many in school, He thought he'd play pool, And now he hasnlt a penny's worth.

THE FGUR SYMBOLS. Do you know the names of the four syrn-hols? I do and I can tell you what each syrn-bol means. I will tell you what I know about the sym-hols. Once there was a class of people in the Nor-mal School who wantecl some- thing to carry as a ban-ner or flag for their class. This class thought that the ti-ger would he a good. sym-hcl so it was taken. Pic-tures were made of the tiger and put on flags and ban-ners and D461 used for dec-o-ra-tions. This class was very strong and won all the games at school. This class was also called the Sen-ior class. Then an-o ther c '1'z2 u yy, F., I' Anti. is U, class wanted to do some-thing like the 1 Q2- y .P . Tgmggf seniors They took a little cub for their sym-bol. Do you QM432 know what a cub is? It is a e TN 6 little bear. It is so small and if 22f,a2Qfk--' , . f weak that it has to he cared for by the older bears, until it grows up and is strong like other bears. One time this class, called the J un-iors or cubs, had. a ban-quet. They talked about the tigers and two other classes in the school. They did not like the Mil tigers because the tigers had bea-ten them in a bas-ket-ball game. The cubs called the soph-o-mores class goats. The Soph-o-mores did not like this. They are a good class and ought not be talked about. They did not take the goat. They took a bull-dog for their sym-bol. iw 1 The cubs named the o ther 5 olass lambs or F r e s h- ff ' men. The Fresh- men are gentle erea-tures so they did not get angry. They took the lamb for their s y m-b o l. This is the story of Y the four sym- ' A 'fs' 'I .. bols. The ' --' ' tigers arethe 5 best. Then fe 4 the b ull- dogs. They like the tigers very much even if the tigers did beat them P1481 in bas-ket-ball. The tigers and bull- dogs Work to-gether and just tear things up. After the bull-dogs come the cubs and lambs. Once there was a foot-ball game be- tween the tigers and the cubs, bull- dogs and lambs. The tigers Won the game. Then there was another game and the tigers also Won that. In these two, games the cubs, bull-dogs and lambs all Went together to beat the tigers. But the tigers Were too strong. Then the bull-dogs helped. the tigers after that and the lambs and cubs Went together. How could. the little cubs and the gentle lambs expect to beat the big tigers and fierce bull-dogs? D491 Then there was another big day at school. This was called a ral-ly day. All the tigers, cubs, lambs and bull-dogs worked hard to have the best in every thing. Would you like to know more of the ral-ly and which class won? Can you guess who won? The tigers won. That was a good. guess. The tigers had the best in every-thing. The bull- dogs came second and. then the cubs and lambs. The tigers leave school this year. They gr-ad-u-ate. They have finished all their work at the normal and now go out and teach other people. Now the games will be between the cubs, bull-dogs, lambs and the other new class. Dsol if just for yum F1 obooaao mall! A 7 0000000 0 A I OO Q All hail to Prof. Williams' baby!
