Slinpoon — — - Senior History HE years roll by, and with each passing Spring a Senior Class bids good-bye to the Normal leaving behind them a record of their achievements. Therefore, listen ye to a brief account, where much could be written, of the Class of 1904. Four years ago, we were Freshmen; but oven then our ambitions and capable spirit showed itself. Casting aside precedent, we were the first Frcshie Class to organize and take part as a class in Hhetoricals. As an Elementary Class we also pushed to the front furnishing three of the society debaters. The following year our numbers were increased by some of the brightest products of the High Schools. We were the strongest Junior Class that this school has ever known, taking an active part in every school enterprise, furnishing eleven out of the twelve debaters in school, and sending a winning debating team to Oshkosh. After the summer vacation, most of us returned to finish our Course, to la-counted as a member of the largest and strongest Senior Class this Normal has ever known. Every school enterprise, social, athletic, or literary, has found a quota of enthusiastic Seniors ready to successfully carry it out; not however with ostentation, but with that quiet dignity that marks conscious strength and power. And as the time draws near when we shall enter the larger Held of activity we look back with pleasure over our two or four years spent in this Normal, seeing little to regret, and much to be glad for, leaving to our successors an example of jolly comradship, earnest endeavor, «nd high achievement that they will do well to equal or excel. Let us end with the toast “Here’s to the Normal! All she has been, and all we hope her to be! — C. P. Oi os. Seni� When first wo entered the Normal School As Juniors, Nineteen-three, Wo thot there never was a class So good and wise as we. We brightened every class room With our smiles and words of cheer. And every teacher wondered At the wisdom displayed here. 'Phe Seniors tried to scare us With goblins great and small Hut their efforts proved to he in vain For we never quaked at all. In all the social gatherings We took an active part, And we soon did show those Seniors That they couldn't get the start. Hut when last fall we entered As Seniors Nineteen-four We welcomed the new Juniors As they had never been before. First to the president’s olHce We did usher them with care. Next to the text l ok library Many liooks to share. Many were the teers they shed So far from home were they Hut our cheery words soon made them feel That they would like to stay. r Poem When athletic sport.-. Iiegan Wo .Seniors girls did shout. The Juniors stood as if amazed The I'reshies’ eyes stuck out. Hut never fear our boys did say Those girls are just all right, They accomplish what they undertake And work with all their might. The Seniors now invited The Juniors to the Gym, They led them thru the winding paths Where all the lights wore dim. Kach was accompanied by two ghosts Who with mournful sounds Led them to the attic Where Cicero’s corpse was found. Then we showed them to the skeleton And witches black and grim. The trembling Juniors felt relieved When we left them in the Gym. Hut in spite of all wo Seniors did These Juniors still survive And in the debate with Oshkosh They proved they wore alive. To the Seniors of Xineteen-tive Our parting words will bo Whatever you may undertake Just do as well as we. —M. P. Seniors John S, Clark Iva I.. Bronron Jurf M. Moo W. K. Smith Kclna K.

Thrives not in human heart today. No muse divine doth now attend Nor any inspiration lend To guide the poet’s ardent soul Or aid him to attain his gonl. But modern |M cts will attest That inspiration doth not rest. That rhythmic fires today still hum. But, lacking fuel, to embers turn. And soon must smoulder and go out For, what is there to write about? The landscape’s old to ev'ry one, The sky, the stars, the setting sun. The mighty sea, tin gentle breeze. The mountains, the ancestral trees. The seasons as they come and go. All caused poetic fires to glow. The home so sweet, the land so dear. The faith that brooks not any fear. The mem’ries of the past, now tied, In song and ballad may Ik read. All that’s above, all that's below, John Milton wrote about we know. While Shakespeare with his foresight keen, lias cornered all we've ever seen Of character, of love, of hate, Of wily Fortune and of Fate. Lord Tennyson and many more Depleted quite the ancient lore Of Arthur and his table round. Of Holy Grail, which ne’er was found. Of lovers and their many woes. Of |H aee and war, of friends and foes. No gallant deeds today are done. Which into legend can be spun; The loves so true have disap| eared Kxactly as the lovers feared. The tournaments, the duel, the chase. To weaker sports have given place. For chivalry and knighthood lie Unroused in man, and slowly die. So fades the grand and noble art Which stirs the s«ml and cheers the heart; Not from a lack of inspiration Of men in every land and nation But from a luck of worthy themes Of which the modern poet but dreams. — .1.

As the crimson of our colors Will remind you we’re alive, And the gray show steady purpose In the class of 1905. So, the spirit of the crimson, And the modesty of gray, Have overcome each danger Swept each obstacle away. And when fade the other colors At the dawning of our day. We will see the growing splendors Of the crimson and the gray. — X. A H. To the Seniors:— Wo are sorry to see you go. We have dwelt peacefully together (excepting a few times we are willing to forget) and feel that we are indebted for many an example and suggestion of what is proper and worthwhile for an humble Junior. We wish you all a pleasant Held of labor for this coming year and bid you remember we shall think of you often. In remembrance of our victory we sing again If a stranger meet a Junior After Fri. night If the stranger asks the Junior Why he looks so bright Then the Junior sure will answer. Have you been asleep?

The officers elioscn for the year wore: President, Fred L. Curran; Vice-President, I O Roy K. Wood; Secretary, Helen Oslrum; Treasurer, Ada Moon. A committee was ap|a� inted to select and rei� ort on class colors, and we made our appearance Octolwr 2d, with a neat little bow of lavender and white. We were a hand of fifty strong, energetic students, and hid fair to make our mark in the school. On the evening of October 30th, wo held our first reception in the Normal Gymnasium in the form of a Halloween Party. Our President withdrew from school the second quarter to teach, and did not return until the l cginning of the fourth quarter. “While the cat was away, the mice did play.” We joined forces with the elements, one moonlight night during the second quarter, and held a moonlight party on tho Normal lawn. A second reception was held March fifth in the Gymnasium. As the date of tho Oratorical contest drew near, and the ditl'crent Classes, Societies and Organizations began choosing their delegates to represent them at Plattcvillo, tho First Year Class came to the front with Jerry Madden as their delegate. Although members of our class havo dropped out, others have dropped in, and we now have a half-hundred bright, jolly, enthusiastic students. Tho enthusiasm and readiness with which the class have taken hold of every social movement, in which tho school was interested, have won for themselves a high place iu tho estimation of their fellow students.

From the hill and from the glen Gathered we in goodly numbers. To the learned haunts of men. From the lireside of our fathers From the fields where nature rules, From the shady woodland splendors, Where are natures fairer schools, There wo learned our early lessons, Learned right well what nature taught. Learned to see and hear and listen. Learned to think as nature thought. Came we forth in goodly numbers To the dear old Normal School, learned to call her “Alma Mater,” learned to honor every rule. Filtered we with right good spirit Into all her griefs and joys; Came we forth with strength and courage Came with hope which care destroys. Through the mists of disappointment Have we risen brave and strong. Risen, pressing, ever forward. Thru the onward moving throng. Steadily with our goal before us. Have wo bravely fought our way, All alone we’re sometimes standing E’en alone wo ne’er dismay. Forward to the front we’re pushing. Forward we will make our way; Onward, onward, ever onward. Step by step and day by day. Rising, rising, ever upward, Kre we'll pass the di.-couraged by. Till the foot hills are far behind us And we’ve climbed the mountains high. From the gates of an Eastern citv. Which the sun had touched with gold, In the rosy light of the morning With joys that are never old. Speed the train of Destiny on. By the home with the baby's prattle, And the broken toys on the floor. Past the school with its well worn stairway And the shelt’ring oak by the door, Tho train s| ecd8 on. There's a glimpse of a forest pathway With tho grapevines flung acrost; There’s a laughing brook in the meadow; But again the vision is lost— As the train speeds on. And the traveler longs to linger. All seems fair in the morning sun; But the day grows brighter above him. And the journey is only begun; So the train speeds on. 'Neath the brow of a towering building Glows the heat of tho mid-day strife. And over in and al out it Surges the tide of life— As the train speeds on. Destiny By the Hashes of snow-capped mountains. By castles and rivers blue; O’er the rolling plains and the highlands. Through the old scenes and through new The train speeds on. ’Till the sounds grow faint in the distance. And the red from the setting sun Tells that most of life is now over. And the journey is almost done— Vet the train sjiocds on. On and on through the gathering twilight. And so weary now the way; And the lights from that Eastern city Seem farther away than the day— Still the train speeds on. No longer the joys of Nature, No longer the sight of home; No longer the strifo and warfare. No more o’er the world to roam. No longer the weary waiting. For the journey is done at last. And far o’er the Western ocean The day i� forever at rest. _ Nina Hai.i.. Musical Organizations } , ft ..

Orator T HIS organization has just closed a very successful year, having held two local orn-torical contests, sent a representative to the Inter Normal Contest and a debating team to Whitewater. The first contest was to choose six contestants, from which number the school orator was chosen later. J. Howard Browne, with an oration, entitled “The Educator's Opportunity,” won the local contest. Stevens Point was very much in evidence at the Plattevillo contest. Pres. J. S. Clark presided, II. V. W. Welty sang a solo, J. II. Browne delivered his oration, and a delegation, twenty strong, was present to cheer for the Purple and Gold. At the business meeting of the League K. II. Miles was elected its treasurer for the coming year. Wo did not win first place but still we are not discouraged, und next year, when the contest is held here, wo expect to see Stevens Point in the lead. K. Mile . Trr .. SI School Debaters J. S.

The debate was held at Whitewater May 20. The question was: “Resolved, that a system of asset currency in connection with our national banks is preferable to our present system.” The judges were B. II. Miller of Madison, C. E. Estabrook of Milwaukee and C. G. Rogers of Fort Atkinson. Whitewater upheld the negative and was represented by Miss Ada IIilIonian, W. C. Bartelt and W. S. Shephard. The debate was ably handled by both teams, but the Stevens Point debaters, by their conclusive arguments and splendid rebuttal work, secured the unanimous decission of the judges.

Arena Presidents K4m f choirlil Elllda Morn Grace � «wl� Mabel Holley y. w. e. a. The Young Women’s Christian Association was organized in our school Dec. 9. 1902. A need for such a society has long boon felt; and now that it has come promises to do much for furthering the upbuilding of Christian sentiment and culture in our school. The work is getting well organized, and promises much for the coming year. The Association will put forth special etlort to make welcome and help in every way they may the new students who will be entering the Normal departments. Once a week the members meet for devotional service in the music room. All meetings are pleasantly announced on posters which arc placed near the bulletin board in the hall. The meetings arc open both to the girls of the school and those outside. The colors are white lettered in gold. Next year the hand-book from tin two associations will lx’ out. and more new lines of work will be taken up. The receptions of the year have been spoken of sis very pleasant occasions. HI The Forum This is The year of 1901 has been one of the most successful yearsof this most successful society, the Forum. Altho our programs were to some extent interrupted by other school affairs, some interesting and closely contested debates is the feature of the society’s work. Our men have also taken an active part in the debating and oratory of the school. Of the Junior detailing team that defeated Oshkosh, Gesell and Baker, were taken from the ranks of the Forum. The school debaters, the cream of the school, Calkins, Clark, Olson, have been selected from the Forum. Our record of supplying all the school orators has not been broken; for this year wo boast of Brown. Altho the Forum docs not poso as a spelling society, still the challenge from Arena, the proudest of the girl societies, to meet them in an annual spelling contest, was accepted. The Arena had been making ample preparations for the event. Their programs consisted of spelling matches in order to give those who were to uphold the honor and dignity of that society a thorough preparation. The big event whs deferred from time to time on account of other school affairs that crowded in. But then it came; and. alas! proud Arena was made to bow her head and admit that the Forum team composed of such men as Glasspoole and Fults, was more than a match for the long drilled Arenaites. certainly a brilliant record; and one that wo will proudly turn back to. « Forum Presidents K.

This spirit of willingness has been present to a marked degree throughout the year. Although our membership is sinnll compared with that of the other Literary Societies of the school, yet we have boon well represented in all the literary enterprises of the school. Our small momWrshlp Is also an advantage to members, as they are allowed to lie in the program much oftener than in the larger societies. Our society is a Literary Society; and not only debates, but declamations, vocal and instrumental music, talks and essays are given at its meetings. The members feel themselves benefitted by the work they do: so they not only put their best individuality into work assigned them, but the member learn to work together, so strengthening the work of tho whole society. One result of this is the “team work” done by our debater . Another is the feeling of brotherhood felt by those who graduate for those still In school and In the society. Our work this year has put debating to the front as the most Important Item In school literary work. The most of this debating has ben on vital up-to-date questions. 4 questions that are or have been before the public during the past year. These debates are assigned two or three seeks beforehand, and each debater has ample tim? to prepare his part. We have also given a good deal of attention to five or ten minute talks on topics assigned to different members. Also declamations have had their share of attention. Another thing we have tried to foster is the ability to talk and think when called suddenly before an audience. To this end we have had several extemporanious debates, sp«sfhes, and talks. I.ast, but not least, has been our drill in Parliamentary Practice, using “Robert’s Rules of Order. We have endeavored to give each memlwr at least a working knowledge of these rules, in order that he may not Is handicapped when called upon to act as chairman of a mooting. We are well represented in the final literary events of this school year. We have full confidence in our debaters, and look forward with a good deal of expectancy to the contest in June. In the Annual Declamatory Contest we art ready to do our best: and, be the decision what it may, we shall reap a rich harvest in payment for our efforts. D. II. RKlt). !� Athenaeum Debaters W. K.

IMd “On “It’s absurd!” said Bobby as he threw his paper on the table, “poifectly alisurd! “What’s the row?” asked Jack Standish entering the room just in time to catch the words and see the look of disgust on the “Honorable Robert’ ” fare, “what has so aroused your indignation as to 1m thus violently accused? “None of your chaff, Jack; but see here is a lot of rot in the “Times” al out a fellow who proposes to elope with a girl, parents object, you know. The loving ones plan to meet on a certain street corner, the man to be in a carriage, and to pick up the girl on the way to the train.” “All goes well, the man meets the girl as agreed ; hut having liocn detained, and it being almost leaving time for their train, when they reach the depot he gives her a ticket and she goes directly to the train, while lie rushes off to sec that the baggage has been properly checked. He barely manages to catch the train as it is pulling out from the station, only to find that he has run off with his intended's mother, who by some strange chance hnp| cnod to bo standing on that particular street corner waiting for her husband. That sort of thing may do very well for a novel; but as a piece of news happening in real life it seems to me a � Bet” failure. Don’t you think I would recognize a girl knowing her well enonvh to attempt an elopement without running off with her mother?” “But supposing she wore a veil, Bohhy?” said Jack; “the man’s late, you know’, and probably excited?” “No use. Jack; it’s a nice well built fabrication from boginning to end. I'll bet you “fifty” that if I were to drive up to one of the theatres to-night and some one should get into my cab by mistake, the error would be discovered before we had gone a square. “Done! Bohbv; and I'll tell you how to turn the trick. To-night, at “The World,” opens “The Koval Birth.” Miss Mason, the star, was formerly one of our set, and a lot of our people will Ik there. Most of the men will l c at the club, for they give a farewell supper to Dick Carson. I know of several of them who expert to drive around and meet their wives at the theatre. It gives you a fair chance, you see. Your cue is to take a cab, get to the “World before the rest, and when the first woman comes out who seems alone, have your cabby respond to her number, take her in. and if you arc discovered l eforc you have driven a square, I lose: you take the lady hack, explaining that you must have caught the wrong number. If not discovered. I win; and you get out of it aa 1 est you can. “Thin prospect of, as you sav, getting out of it as lx� t 1 can does not ap| cul to me,” said Bobby;” “but I’ll try it just the same ” With many misgivings, Robert Whitney n| -peared at the theatre promptly at eleven o’clock. Ho had previously instructed his driver how, at a given signal, he was to respond to whatever number might have been called. As the people came from the play a party of ladies attracted Hobby's attention. One es| ecially ho noticed who was closely scanning the carriages and apparently looking for some one. To think was to act; ho sprang to the pavement, motioned to the lady, assisted her to enter the cab, took his scat, and they wore oil-. The tirst s«|uaro was soon passed, and the second well la-gun, (Bobby the while wondering how he should break the silence which was rapidly becoming embarrassing), when “The Unknown” turned and said, “It was good of you to come for me, especially sis you had just arrived in town and no doubt desired a long night’s rest more than waiting for a theatro party and eating mid-night suppers. Did you notice I wore my two red roses with one white in between very conspicuously so that you could not miss me?” thought 1 lobby, “I am to cat supper with this Lady of the Roses? That isn't going to bo so bad if wo can only arrive safely at the supper stage. But who, under the sun, am I supposed to ho?” “Did John tell you,” continued the Lady, “where ho would meet us? I did not hear you direct tho driver to the Savoy; but, perhaps, ho forgot, ho rushed off in such a hurry to night that he only told ir.o ns ho was leaving tho house ” “When John shows up, starts a bad quarter of an hour for mo,” thought Bobby. To the ‘Unknown he answered, “To be sure, it had escaped my mind; I will direct tho driver.” As they passed an electric light, ho noticed for tho first time the beauty of the girl. “Geo! what eyes! ho thought. “She’s been having a mighty tiuo time, evidently, they danco so. I wish I could seo them hotter. They may be blue, or even brown, but to-night they «ro so dark that-----oh! I l cg your pardon, I-----1 must have been thinking of something else.” “I’m sorry to interrupt,” laughed the girl. “I merely said that if wo had further to go I should want you to tell mo of yourself. John said wo must got acquainted.” “Oh! wo have lots of time to get acquainted,” hastily said Bobby. “Why! I thought you went hack day after tomorrow? Ilavo you changed your mind? “Yes. That is------1 may possibly stay longer: it depends upon—well, upon circumstances. Doesn't it seem to you that we have taken the longest way to the hotel ?’’ “Why m —it doesn't to me. Hut, | erhaps, I haven't been so very entertaining. I’tn so sorry, she pleaded, in a mock serious tone. Then she turned to him quickly, “How do you like the idea of having a travelling companion on the way hack in the person of me? You know, Suzanne has teased me to visit her; she said you wouldn’t mind my going with you even though we never had met he fore. It’s been so long since I’ve seen her; and I’m simply wild to see that darling baby of yours.” “Yes, he is a dear—just at the cute stage, you know. “Mercy! I’m getting into this pretty deep,” groaned Hobby to himself. “Now, I’m burdened, with a wife and child. Hut I rather like the idea of the travelling companion on the way back. Whomever I’m supposed to impersonate is a happy man.” Now the cab began to move more and more slowly. Looking thru the window Hobby saw the open door of the hotel and the brilliant light streaming through, making a shining path-way from tho street. The cab had stopped. “Now for the test,” thought Hobby as he helped his “Unknown” from tho shadows of the carriage. As they entered the hotel he felt that he was being critically studied by the girl who looked at him steadily with a strange, quizzical smile that made him vaguely uncomfortable. No John was to l c found in waiting; and they decided to go to the dining room, order supper, and await him there. “I have been here such a short time I hardly know anyone,” said the Lady when they wore comfortably seated, and then answering to his look of inquiry, “I have been in Germany studying tho last two years, I thought you knew. I wish I might point out some of these people to you.” “I know—” began Bobby, but stopped in time not to betray himself. “Of course,” was the answer, “how stupid of me. John told me you had formerly lived here.” Hobby was saved an answer, for a heavy hand rested on his shoulder, and a surprised voice asked “IIow in the deuce did you two get here?” “You!” gasped Hobby, as he turned and faced Jack Standish. Then he turned to tho girl. She had arisen, her face cold and hard. “John, she said, and the words came slowly and clearly, “will you Iks 80 kind ns to introduce me to your friend Mr. Whitney? In the surprised silence that followed, Robert Whitney’s face went white, hut he arose and faced the'girl. “I owe you an apology, which I know you can not accept. I do not know how you ha| -pen to know my name, nor for how long you have known it. I can make no explanation at all that I should care to give, or that you would hear. I am------ “For heaven’s sake, man! talk sense, broke in .lack Standish, “what I want to know is how did you two get here, at this place ? I went after Sis., and just as 1 arrived at the theatre 1 saw her disappearing into a carriage with someone else. I followed you because you went in the opposite direction to that taken by the rest of the party. Wo were all going to the “State. Then suddenly he turned to Hobby, questioning angrily, “Hobby, you don’t mean to say that this is the---’ “Yes, nodded Hobby. “Yes, this is the-- laughed the girl, and the men turned to tiud her eyes dancing. “You see. 74 Mr. Whitney, .lack told ine at dinner of his bet with you. Then, when you motioned to mo as I came out of the theatre, the light fell full on your face for an instant and I knew you at once, altho I have only seen the photograph that John has of you. I'm Mshamcd to say, (and Bobby thought the little embarrassed laugh she gave the most delightful he hud ever heard,) that the spirit of mischief immediately seized me, and I went with you not identifying myself just to sec what you would do. I gave the wrong hotel direction on purposo to sec if you had any plan in your mind, and how you would act when we arrived hero. I congrat ulate you, you did beautifully. Then she looked saucily up into his eyes. And now may I ask how Suzanne is ?” It is related that next morning's mail contained a check for Robert Whitney; and present appear ances indicate that Jack will soon be able to dis-jx so of another, since rumor has it that in the near future Bobby is to be allowed permission to eat every meal with “The Unknown.” CO UN - i e R.
