It is going to be a bad stormy night, Brown, so I think I shall come back after supper and spend the evening with you. The speaker was Jack Steele, the day operator and Brown was the night man at Wheeler, a little station on the D. S. C. railroad in Northern Wisconsin. Oh yes, here is a letter that came for you today. I almost forgot it. And tossing the letter on the table, jack went out. When he was gone B1'OW11,1JlCliCtl it up, slowly tore it open and when he had finished reading it muttered to himself: Well, it has come again. I presume l ought to be used to it by this time but it is mighty discouraging to a fellow just the same. With that he went to work and was busy when Steele returned. lily the time jack had taken off his dripping rain-coat and poked up the tire a little Brown had finished and they both pulled their chairs up closer to the stove and settled down for a chat. After they had been talking for about an hour Steele remarked: Brown you have something on your mind. Wfas there anything in that letter that upset you P Yes, Jack, they have 'got' me again. 'Got' you? Why what do you mean? just this, they have looked np my record and it will not stand. This is my last night on this jobf' Your record, jim? You never told me anything of that. VVhat is wrong with it? There is nothing in it that I am ashamed of, continued Brown, though for reasons that will be apparent to you I find it best to say as little about my past life as possible. I have been here With you for over a month and 'have' told you nothing, but now as long as the blow has fallen I may as Well tell you the cause of my leaving. My father died when I was quite young and as soon as I was able l went to work in the depot, helping the agent and learning the business. It was not very long before l was competent to hold a position so when the agent was promoted l applied for the place and got it. Wie were getting along very nicely when, because of some difference be- tween the management of the road and the men, a strike was called and I went out with the rest. W'e never got back. 'l'he strike was lost and I was forced to leave home and look elsewhere for work. Since then I have travelled all over the country, but as soon as I have worked about a month or so that bad spot in my record is discovered and I must move on again. I have taken up a course in the correspondence schools and before very long hope to be able to again settle down and live without this thing hang- ing over my head. Why don't you change your name and cover up that spot in your record, 'suggested Steele. jack, old man, james Brown is a common name but it is as dear to me as the title of the proudest llOlJlC in Europe, my mother's name and the one she gave me, a11d death is the only thing that shall take it from me. XV ell, I am sorry to see you go and would like to stay later and visit with you but it is getting so late now that I think 1 shall go, and see you again in the morning. VVith these words Steele put on his coat and bidding Brown good night started home. A short time after he had gone Old Bill Smith, the conductor came stamp- ing into the oiiice. lle stopped growling about the weather long enough to say: Get orders for the 3085 ready to go in five minutes, and proceeded to register his train. X 10 . GITCHE GUMEE After reading and signing the orders he went out and as the engine was go- ing by he swung himself into the cab and seating himself at the engineer's side handed him his copy of the orders. Brown was still sitting in his chair looking at the instruments before him in an absent-minded sort of way when he heard the operator at klflunter, which was the next night office, ten miles further west, report the following to jones, the d-ispatcher: Special 101 East, by at 11 :15. I-Ie glanced at his clock, it was just 11:16 then, and at the same instant he heard his own call sounded as though there were a madman at the other end of the wire. Knowing what was coming he answered quickly. Has the 308 gone yet F snapped the sounder. just going, he returned. God! stop them! They have noth- ing against the 101 eastf, There was one oliice, Wziles, between VVheeler and l-lunter, but there was no night man there. still with the faint hope that perhaps the agent might, by some chance, be in the office at that time jones called desperately: Wa-VVa-Wa . The sounder shrieked, purred. coaxed, plead- ed, begged and rattled wildly by turns but to no avail. ily this time every operator on the line was bending over his instruments breathlessly waiting to see what was to be the result. Special 101 east, com- posed of seven coaches lilledfwith pas- sengers on their way to the State Fair, beyond all human control, was bearing down upon a heavily loaded west-bound freight. As the words 'stop them' came to Brown he snached up his red lantern and ran out on the platform swinging it wild- ly. The conductor is on the other side of the engine and the brakemen are un- doubtedly busy in the caboose, he thought, how can I stop them now? They will not see the lantern. At every revolution of the, wheels the train was gaining more speed. Already it was going at a rate that made it dan- gerous to attempt to get on. By the time the caboose should pass him it would be going so swiftly that it would be impossible to catch it. VVhat was to be done? I-Ie already saw two mighty locomotives piled in a tangled niass and heard in his mind the groans of the dying. There is only one way to prevent this, he thought rapidly. Dare I attempt it? Why should I? jones is to blame. I-Ie failed on his or- der. There can be no blame put upon me. I leave today anyway. lf I stop them no one will ever know of the error that jones has made unless I tell of it. Then my record will be cleared as a re- ward but Jones will have to go. Life or death I must.' He set the lantern down, ran a few steps down the wet slippery platform be- side the train and with one hand grasped an iron round of one of the ladders as it was passing him and with a mighty effort threw himself against the car and clutch- ed it with the other hand. No time was to be lost. He pluckily climbed up a few steps and then worked himself in between the cars. The hammering of the wheels over the joints and the crunch ing of the knuckles was deafening. lie took out his knife and grasping the brake-staff with one hand he caut- iously let himself down until he could reach the rubber air-hose. It was tough but at last he succeeded in cutting a gash in it and he felt a thrill of joy and triumph as he felt the brakes grinding on the wheels as the air was released. The heavy train quickly came to a stop and lanterns appeared outside the caboose and engine. Bring an air-hose, quick, he called. and to the brakeman who came running up with one he said: Put it in there and get back on the siding as quickly as you can. It was but a few moments until the train was back on the siding once more and as special 101 east rolled over the switches at Wheeler in safety little did the passengers dream of how their lives had been saved by an unknown man whose heroism would never be reward- ed by word or deed. . As Brown entered the little telegraph office all was still as death. It seemed as though all life had been cut off the entire division. Not a sounder clicked. He opened his key and said si1nply:' Special 101 east arrived 11Z31Q ex- tra 308 west, departed 11:32. Jones' who had been sitting in his chair as one dead heard this as a con- GITCI-112 GUMEE 11 demned man might a reprieve granted on the day of his execution. He thought: And that man is to be dis- charged because of a mark placed against his record when he obeyed the rules of his union that he was sworn to support. 1 will have him come in tomorrow and together we can explain matters to the superintendent. It will cost me my job but will put him on the square with the world. Then to Ilrown, he said, Can you come in and see me tomorrow ?' Tomorrow, l'm going to Texasf' The preceding story was awarded first place in a story contest in which stu- dents competed. The judges, Miss Ben- nett, l'rof. liembdt and Prof. Gilbert found it difficult to decide on the relative merits of the stories. The following were awarded places-E. N. Calef Gladys George and Nona Black . QSEWQEWRJ I. C. MCN EIL. Mr. 1. C. McNeill, our ex-president, was born at Avoca, N. Y., August, 1855. lie received his academic education in New 'York and then came to the Middle West where the rest of his school career has taken place. lie was a student in the University of Kansas and i11 1878 came to Kansas City as principal of the NVashington school. ln 1879 be became superintendent of schools at Tipton, Mo. Three years later he went to Kansas City again to accept the principalship of the Morse school which position he held for eight years,'leaving it to become assistant superintendent of schools. 1n 1890 tiov- ernor lirancis appointed Mr. McNeill a members of the lioard of Regents of the State Normal school at Wfarrensburg, Mo. He was elected vice-president of the board in 1893. 1n the same year he became treasurer of the N. li. A. and served in that capacity for several years. In 1896 Mr. McNeill was ottered the presidency of the Superior Normal. lt was a new school and there were many difficulties to be overcome, but he ac- cepted the position and the condition of the school at the time of his resignation in March, 1907, attests the good results of his work. In April he accepted the superintendency of schools at Memphis, Tenn., a work for which he seems par- ticularly aclapted. ' Mr. McNei1l's many friends were sorry to see him leave Superior, but rejoiced with him in his appointment and wished him success in his new field of work. V. E. MCCASKILL. Mr. V. 15. McCaskill has begun his duties as president of the Superior State Normal school with a splendid record from the past and a bright future before him. lllinois is the state of his birth but at the age of ten he moved to Mis- souri where he attended a country school and later taught school for five years. llc finished the three year course at the State Normal school at Warrensburg, Missouri, in 1889 and was graduated from Ohio Vifesleyan in 1893 with the degree of All and in 1894 with the de- gree of A.m. lle spent three years at the University of Chicago and five sum- mers at the Marine Biological liabratory at VVoodshole, Mass. ln january, 1896, he was elected to the chair of biology at the Stevens 1-'oint Normal. XVhile there he continued his research work, taking his doctor's degree at the University of Chicago in 1901. In October, 1902, 1Vl'r. McCaskill was elected to the position of institute conductor in the Superior State Normal. Besides his duties as institute conductor he held the chair of biologoy. Mr. McCaskil1 is well known over the state and we do not doubt his ability to make our Normal far-famed thruont this country. He has the qualities which make him a good executive andiwin for him the hearts of men. 12 GITCHE GUMEE I -tum 1 I 1 :Ja HE GITCHE GUMEE The Annual of the State Normal School, Supe- rior, Wls. ,.... . -' Subscription Price, 25 Cents, Entered at the Superior, NVls.. 1'0Sl0ff1v0 Us secoml-class mall matter.

' The business managers of the Gitche Gumee wish to take this opportunity to thank those who assisted them in solocit- ing the advertisements and subscriptions for this issue. Special thanks are due to Harry Evans and Loren McQueen for the excellent work which they did. That there is an increasing demand for Normal trained teachers is clearly evidenced by the fact that a large ma- jority of the class of 1907 have already secured good positions at salaries larger than those ordinarily paid. There have been requests for Superior teachers from all parts of the state but the demand be- ing greater than the supply, many had to be denied. Our sister state, Minne- sota, also succeeded in securing a goodly number of our 1907 graduates to make their debut in her schools. GW- KQ .,. The editor-in-chief wishes to express his thanks to the members of the stalf for the hearty support they have given the paper and the willingness with which they have responded to requests for ar- ticles aud editorials, That we are able to double the num- ber of pages of reading matter and other- wise iucur a greater expense than here- tofore is due largely to the liberality of our advertisers The business men of Superior recognize the fact that a Nor- mal school paper is a good medium through which to reach the best class of people, A commencement number is kept for a souvenir thereby making the advertisements permanent. We predict that the issue of '08 will have still greater support of the business men and the school, ' It is known by those who are familiar with animals that exercise is one of the requisites of Normal development and growth. As man is an animal exercise is to him an essential. To a class of people like students who are closely con- fined for most of the day, out of door exercise is very necessary. How are the Normal students to get this exercise? The only state property available for this purpose is the campus. We are for- bidden to use it for this purpose as it would destroy the grass. We have therefore no grounds upon which to take this necessary outdoor exercise. Knowledge without proper physical housing begets pessimism. ls it the state's aim to send forth each year, as teachers, a corps of pessimists? The Normal needs an athletic field. A place where all may obtain the necessary physical exercise. Can the state ever purchase this ground any cheaper? Su- perior's real estate is steadily advancing in value and soon the state will be un- able to purchase the available land for twice its present value. Grrci-in FACULTY GUMEE 13 CHANGES. MR. BERGEN. llflr. llergen was teacher of literature and reading in the Superior Normal for tive years. Mr. 'Bergen graduated from the Milwaukee State Normal in 1887 and from the Lake Forest University with A. li. A. degree in 1895. Isle taught three years in the Elgin Clll.j academy and three years in the I-ligh schools of Mil- waukee. Ile then taught in the Normal schools at Cheney, Wasil., and at Clarion, Pa., and from there came to accept the position in the Superior Normal. Mr. Bergen conducted classes in elocution and during the last year he gave twenty-eight public recitals of Shakespeare's plays in five states. Mr. Bergen was a strong teacher and exerted an important influ- ence in developing interest in oratory in the school. He will be missed by students and teachers alike. MAR. GILBERT. Mr. Gilbert of the WISCOIISIII 'Univers- ity came here to till a vacancy in the de- partment of biology. Mr. Gilbert at- tended the public schools of Blair, Wis- consin, and taught Hve years in Trem- pealeau county schools. I-Ie was a gradu- ate of the Stevens Point Normal in 1901. For four years he taught in l Iayward, two years as assistant and two years as principal. The last two years he has spent at the Wiscoxisiii University of which he is a graduate. MISS BETTES. Miss Bettes came to the Superior Nor- mal at the opening of the school year in 1897 as critic of the Grammar Depart- ment. The position was unsolicited by her. She succeeded Miss Lucy Norton who was at that time transferred to the department of English. lXliss l3ettes's training was obtained at the Grand Rapids I--ligh school and the University of Michigan where she spe- cialized in the classics and kindred sub- jects. In the summer of 1905 she was invited to go to the University of Texas aslect- nrer in methods. She returned to the University of Texas during the summer ot 1906 in the same capacity. but de- clined for the session of 1907. l1y re- quest of the directors of the summer school of the Superior Normal Miss llettes has been retained as instructor in Theory and Art and Methods. ln brief Miss IIettes's philosophy as a teacher and a director of teachers is this. Every child granted to a teacher's care is a sacred trust. Whatever of good there is in the nature of the individual child use as a foundation upon which to build patiently, cheerfully and firmly. In- spire the child to love and enjoy the thing that you teach him, for in this atmosphere alone does he attain his best effort. Knowledge is not the end of education: it is the means. If. the effect of the teach- ing of any subject makes for greater willingness, promptnessf obedience or power of concentration on the part of the child that subject educates in the true sense whether it be grammar or gardening. Such teaching alone fultills its mission. MISS BENNETT. Miss Bennett came to the Normal in lfebruary to fill a temporary vacancy caused by the illness of Prof. Bergen.

In August, 1903, fifty verdant f1'eshies strolled up the campus to enter upon their duties as prospective teachers. Some were escorted by knowing friends who were quite willing to answer the various questions asked. But some of the more lonely ones came up with an air of bravery which was intended to show that no protection was needed. Mr. McNeill, our former president, thought it advisable to introduce his new llock to the harbor, and at the same time, to the pillars of the institution, so engaged the Steamer Newsboy for the occasion. This was the flrst of many enjoyable affairs. Time iicw by, and the blunders, trials, and tribulations of this class were many so many, in fact, that the worthy upper elassmcn published in the Gitche a list, Things a Normal Student Should Know. To say that the freshmen read them is putting it mildly: they simply pawed over them for weeks and at last decided it would be good policy to fol- low most' of them. Behold! the effect. Courage sprang at once from the fol- lowing of the resolutions and having waited a sufficient length of time for the sophomores to do their duty, the fresh- men entertained the class of 1907 at a liolloween party which will never be for- gotten by the guests. The sophomores later returned the compliment. Other than the making of the first basket ball teams by a few worthy mem- bers of our class nothing of interest oc- curred during the first year except the marriage of Miss Pauline Sherman. Thus the class of '07 was launched upon the turbulent sea of matrimony. The first event of interest in our sopho- more year was the entertaining of the freshman class of 1904. This was also the gala year for the organization of so- cieties, and the Arts and Crafts club Cdubbed Hearts and Grafts by the sour grapesj and the Tennis assot ition were organized. The Arts and -Crafts girls during their Sophomore and Junior years made a reputation for themselves as hostesses, and the tennis champions have been found in this class up, to the present date. We are sorry f?j to confess that the young lady, who was the instigator of the Cake Stealing, and the young man who ate The Cake are members of our illustrious class. In the spring the young man's fancy Lightly turns to thoughts of love. was proven by the marriage of our star basket ball player, Clare VVashbnrn in March, 1905. The fall of 1905 fuond us Juniors- at last-and brought us eighteen recruits from the lligh schools of the State. With their help we made life pleasant QPD for the Seniors. On their class day they found their section draped in crepe, and at their exercises we forced them to leave the stage without having made their class song and yell heard. lt would not be fair to omit mentioning the gifts bequeathed to us by the aforesaid Seniors at the same exercises. ln-this year families were organized giving us a chance to enjoy a few more parties, spreads. sleigh rides, and picnics. Senior year brought us two element- ary graduates. Miss Scritsmier and M1'. White. During the year we all finished practice teaching. Again we breathe. Thanks be! Our Senior president, Williaiii Schnell, was honored with the presidency of the State Uratorical Association. Emory Harnden is president of the Quintilian the members of which proved, during the year, by the condition in which the Domestic Science Room was left, after their spreads that literary people are not practical. Miss Scritsmier, another Senior, was chosen to fill the executive chair of the Girl's Reading Club. The girls of the class proved their ability in the theatrical lineby several impromptu programs given in the as- sembly hall during the noon hour. This entertainment seemed to be enjoyed very much by the student body and those members of the faculty, who were lucky enough to be invited. Perhaps our greatest glory is that Billy Schnell, 'fReddy Conley, and Dutch Schmidt, three Senior boys were the star members of the team GITCHE GUMEE 21 which defeated the notorious Blaine basket ball team. VVe were very much grieved by the departure of our beloved lf'resident, dur- ing the spring term. for his new work in Memphis, Tennessee. The class en- deavored to show its appreciation of what he had done for it by giving a banquet in his honor the week before he left. When our new Prexy. Mr. McCaskill. was interviewed and he actually gave permission for a junior-Senior. both classes were in a great state of excite- ment and many disputes arose as to the nature of the affair. At the last the more radical members compromised with those members who had been shut in the ehrysalis of no dancing for so long that they were not able to stand so strange an affair as a junior-Senior in the Su- perior Normal sehool. The result is to be a small and more select affair. These are some of the important items ni the history of the class of '07 up to the time when the Gitche goes to press. but, we still have before us the Regents Exam., Class Day with its play and other exercises and Commencement lfVeek end- ing with Graduation Day after which important event, we shall no longer be members of the student class of '07 but of that steadily increasing organization, the Alumni of the Superior State Nor- mal school.

Among the many beautiful pictures which decorate the walls of the Superior Normal school there are some that are worthy of especial mention. Upon en- tering the assembly hall almost the first picture to attract one's attention is the Frieze of the Prophets which occupies a conspicuous place above the rostrum. This picture is a copy of the frieze in Sargent ltlall in the new public library of Boston, and was painted by john S. Sargent. The whole painting in the hall consists of a lunette, a frieze, and a part of the ceiling and illustrates cer- tain stages of Jewish and Christian his- tory. The subject is the confused strug- gle in the jewish nation between Mono- theism and Polytheism. In the frieze are the Hebrew people scorning the idols of polytheism and looking only to the one and unseen God for their inspira- tion and law. The frieze does more than illustrate the monotheistic and spiritual principles of the jewish religion. It has been fine- ly compared to a Greek chorus inter- preting and supporting the movement of a great drama. In the right hand panel the three extreme prophets are exulting in strong athithesis to the three prophets on the opposite wall, in the sure hope of a Messiah to come and relieve Israel of her Woes, and are pointing in the direction of the panels which Mr. Sar- gent has decorated with a painting of Christ preaching to the nations of the world. The central figure of the frieze is Moses supporting the Tables of the Law. On the right is joshua sheathing his sword, on the left is Elijah-the three forming a group by themselves. In looking at this picture one cannot but note the color-the arrangement of the light and dark in such a marked ways, yet so well balanced are' the colors, that the' harmony is felt throughout. Not only the coloring is so noticeable, but also the simplicity of the lines. This is shown in the arrangement of the straight formal folds of Mose's priestly gowns and the loose robes of the other prophets. . just to the left of tl'1C.,F1'1CZC of the l'rophets hangs Turner's The Fighting Temeraireu obtained as a result of the declamatory contest 1901. Of all Tur- ner's pictures in tl1e National Gallery of England this is perhaps the most noted. john Ruskin says of it: lt is the last picture he ever painted with perfect power. The subject of this picture was sug- gested to Turner by Clarkson Stanlield Qwho himself, had painted a Battle of Trafalgarj. . They were going down the river by boat, when the old ship, being tugged to her last berth at Deptford, came in sight. Therels a fine subject, Turner,U said Staniield. This was in 1838. Next year the picture was ex- hibited at the Academy. In 1902, another picture-one of Corot's beautiful landscapes-was hung upon the wall in the Assembly I-Iall. Carot was a French painter born in 1796. lflis fame was gained chiefly through his landscape paintings. ln the library hang six pictures uni- form in size and mounting, entitled the Evolution of the Booksf' The originals of these pictures, painted by john W. Alexander, hang in the Library of Con- gress. Mr. Alexander is an American artist of note, living in Philadelphia. The first picture, the Cairn, shows a company of men of prehistoric time raising a heap of boulders to commemorate some nota- ble event. Oral Tradition, the second picture, depicts the chieftain of the vil- lage, an Arab, relating his tale to an ab- sorbed group of listeners. In the third picture, entitled Egyptian Hieroglyphics, may be seen an Egyption workingman chiseling an inscription i11 stone over the portals of a temple. By his side, on the scaffold, sits a girl watching his work. in the distance rises a pyramid. The next picture, Picture Writing, shows us an American Indian painting upon a deer skin the story of his tribe, The Manuscript Book then follows. An interior of a monastery is shown of the Middle Ages. A monk is seen seated in the dim light of an arched window inscribing the events of the time in a great book. In the last picture of the series, the GITCI-IE GUMEE 23 Printing Press, is shown Gutenberg, the inventor of printing, in his office with an assistant, examining a proof sheet and discussing his great invention. g ,lust opposite the Evolution of the llook in the l.ibrary, hangs Sir Galahad, presented to the school by the Girl's Reading Club in 1904. This picture is a copy of the original painted by George lirederick Watts. It is one of his most popular and represents Sir Galahad, the knight of King Arthur's Round Table, so spotless in his perfect purity that to his sight was revealed the Holy Grail, that mystic chalice which contained the blood of Christ and to him alone was vouchsafed its quest. .Besides the pictures mentioned as deco- rating the library, there is another which demands attention. This is the copy of spring presented by the senior class of 1904. Spring is one of the last large pic- tures painted by Sir Laurence Alma- Tadema. Here are two of the authorls friends, Mr. and Mrs. Henchel, clad as ancient Romans, looking down from an upper story upon the brilliant spectacle of children dressed in summer attire and bedecked with Howers. Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema was a Dutch painter who devoted himself to depicting the life, cus- toms, and manners of the Greeks and Ro- mans. His work is remarkable 'for its indications of careful research, correct- ness of costumes, and details of the period which he depicts. His pictures are com- petent in execution, nothing carelessly done and they have in addition, the value of trustworthy records of the pastg but they rarily move more than the intellect and the sight. Above the first landing between the first and second floors hangs a photo- graphic reproduction of a cast of Caesar Augusto. The cast is one of the most famous in the Loure in Paris. The em- peror as a senator, wrapped in his toga is prepared to make a speech. It has a noble dignity, which is about the finest thing possible in sculpture. The pictures mentioned in thispaper are but a few of those that adorn the walls of the library and the Assembly Hall. There are many others in the building that are worthy of every students time. attention, and study. Among these are: Ioan of Arc painted by jules Bostien Le Page, the original of which is in the Metropolitan Museum in New York, a beautiful water color by Von Weclge. Baby Stuart by Van Dyke, Spring by Anton Mauve, copies of the noted paintings of the Madonna, also of Landseer and M illet's best work, and one of Corot's famous landscapes in the train- ing department.

CLUB. President-Kate Scritsmier, charter member of '99. Vice- ljresident-Edna Miller. Secretary-Myrtle Moyle. E The Girl's Reading Club was organ- ized in the .year 1899. The Gitche Guniee of the following year, contains this item concerning the organization. Last year, in a quiet corner of the building far from 'prying eyes and in- .quisitive ears, a modest little society was formed. Its aims were not lofty, nor its members ambitious. They merc- ly wished to become familiar with good current literature, especially poetry and fiction, so that they might be able to read understandingly and discuss in- telligently what other people were talk- ing about. Quietly as the club came into existence, it was, nevertheless, the oc- casion of considerable question and com- ment, to all of which the members paid little attention but went on their way rejoicingf From the beginning of the club, Miss Geary has been foremost in its progress and much of the success of The Girl's Reading Club is due to her kind and faithful labors. Each year, the club has been rcorganzied and has carried on its work. X H Esiiggjfsisi'-I 'af ig 2 I r if W S Alf . X -iii!!

Business Manager-Hester ,Miles General Manager-Miss Varian. At the same meeting. Tuesday even- ing was decided upon for basket ball practice. Mr. Conley was asked to coach the team and kindly consented. After Christmas vacation the girls were ready for outside games. All the girl's teams in the city were challenged. all except the All Stars who disband- ed as soon as the challenge was issued, accepted. Games were arranged with Haywarn, Eveleth and the Duluth Y. W. C. A. The first game of the season was played with the Nelson Dewey l1igh school. ,lt was simply a walk a wayu for the Normal girls, the score standing 40 to 3 in their favor at the end of the game. ln january, the girls played Hayward at Hayward. After a long but jolly trip, the team accompanied by Miss Varian and Mr. Conley, ar1'ived in Hayward at 9:30 p. m. They were met by some of the llayward girls and es- corted to the Opera House, where they were greeted by a very large and en- thusiastic crowd. The game started as soon as the girls were ready and it was exciting from beginning to end. Each girl played a fine game, llester throwing baskets with the greatest of ease and Gladys who had the best player on the Hayward team to guard did not let her get one field basket. The SC01'C was 26 to 6 in the- Normal's favor. After the game a spread was served to the mem- bers of the girl's team and the mem- bers of the Agora club and High school boy's team that played between halves. On February 15 and 16, the girls went to Eveleth. lt was their first trip on the Range and so they saw many new sights. The games were played in the Opera House, the Normal winning both. The first by a score of 28 to 6, and the second by 21 to 3. After the game liri- day night the girls were given a sleigh- ride to Virginia where an oyster supper was served. The girls enjoyed the trip and year. hope they may have another next In March, return games with Hay- ward and Eveleth were played. The Normal winning the four. The scores were as follows: 'Hayward 8, Normal 183 Hayward 8, Normal 143 Eveleth 1, Normal 43: Eve- leth 2, Normal 30. 1 L A game was played with the Blaine lfligh school which the Normal won by a score of 15 to 5.

' ffl N2 EE GUM GITCII E C HORAL CLUB 34 GITCHE GUMEE THE CHORAL CLUB. M The Choral Club is a prominent feat- ure of the Music Department of the Normal school. It was organized dur- ing the first years of the school and ow- ing to the skill of its leader, Mrs. Cora A. Merry, it does efficient work in the interpretation and rendition of a good class of music. It does a great deal for the school by furnishing music for the various programs given during the year and for commencement exercises. Not only does it furnish entertainment for others but the training necessary to accomplish this gives the individual members added ability to take charge of the music in the schools to which they go. This year the Club is at its best. It consists of fifty members and includes several future Melbas and Schumann- Isleinks. The school has been delightfully en- tertained during the year by the follow- ing programs: - On November 20, l906, in the Assemb- 'ly Hall: Piano solo- Murmuring Spring . . .................Florence Fiedler Chorus- VVho is Sylvia P The Night Bells, Happy Birds .....................Choral Club CD11 December l0, 1906, in the As- sembly Hall: .

The first part of the program consisted of three numbers. Miss McElroy played Cavatina, by Raff, on the violin. She played excep- tionally well and everybody enjoyed her music. The next number on the pro- gram was a vocal solo, entitled Smiles, by Superior's sweet singer, Hazel Harris. Miss Ruth Rogers played an Impromptu by Schubert-Scharwenka. She is one of the best performers at the head of the lakes and everyone was delighted with the artistic rendition of her selection. In the second part of the program Abb's cantata, entitled Summer was sung by the Choral Club. The girls were all in white which was especially appropriate to the subject of the Cantata and being arranged in tiers appeared to good ad- vantage. The soloists were members of the club and sang remarkably well. It was the universal opinion that the even- ing was a success and many have ex- pressed a hope that it will become an annual affair. Because of the success of the Cantata it was repeated by request on the fol- lowing Monday morning and was thor- oughly appreciated by both Normal and Training Departments. The club furnished t-wo unusually good selections for the commencementpro- gram. The Courtly Days of Old, which is an arrangement for ladies' voices of the well-known and favorite Paderwski's Minuet and Eugene Field's VVynken, Blynken and Nod, set to music by Ethlbert Nevin for a four part ladies' chorus with obligato soloand four hands on the piano. GITCHE GUMEE 35 W THE gpQgUINTIIiIAN som TY. The Quintilian society is one of the oldest literary societies in the school, its beginning dates back to the early years Cof the institutionl. The society is noted for its strength and influence. The strongest and most successful teachers who have finished the Normal work have all been members of this society. If asked, they will tell you that a portion of their success, is due to the training re- celved in the Quintilian society. The officers elected in the fall were: l'resident-li. D. lflarnden. Vice-l'resident--Mary Mathews. ' S0C1'Cf21l'y-Pearl Seguin. T reasurer-E. N. Calef. Sergeant-at-Arms-Douglas Lewis. HARRY EVANS. .Many have been the heated debates in this society, especially when nephew op- posed Uncle 'or when sweethearts were flffilyecl against each other. To main- tain order required the sergeants con- stant attention. ln the local oratorical contest five of the six contestants were members of the Quintilian society. The work in this contest speaks highly for the so- C1Cty. The contest will be taken up in Cletail in another part of the magazine. The society has held two successful social evenings during this year. These Were pleasurable diversities from the regular order of business. The society is to be congratulated on having such a faithful and able criticg a Person who is willing to sacrifice per- sonal pleasures and gratilications for the benefit of others. Such a critic is Mr. llembdt, to whom the society owes much of its present efliciency and strength. The present otiicers are: A President-E. N. Calef. Vice-l'resident-M ona Pen found. Secretary-Norma De Long. Treasurer-W. I. Ryan. Sergeant-at-Arms-H. Evans. One of the features of the present ad- ministration will be the boys' declama- tory contest. Our Social Committee. The Social Committee for the year 1907 has endeavored to maintain the reputation enjoyed by Social Committees of the past. They have done their duty by the students who were obliged to ab- sent themselves, and, on the other hand, the students have received even more than the usual allotment of soul-stirring entertainments. .These in their order, are as follows: A handshaking bee, behind locked doors in the assembly roomg a schoollpicnic at Billings Park, which was enjoyed very much, the guests fur- nishing their own lunch, car fare, and entertainmentg a soap bubble party in the gymnasium, at which everyone be- came very soapy and also very hilariousg another 'tgynf' party which was merely just a party and was accordingly en- joyed even more than the othersg and last, but indeed not least, our farewell reception to Mr. and Mrs. McNeill, which has been described elsewhere, as have all of the above events. . There is not much more to be said- this year's committee being essentially and above all things a modest body. In closing this brief account of the repre- sentative of the all-important social in- terests of the schoolf the social commit- tee wish here to say that their success has been entirely due to the earnest en- deavor and sincere sympathy of the faculty member Miss Pettingill, added to the co-operation of the rest of the faculty and the student bodyg and- thev can only wish their successors such ad- vantages as theirs 'have been. 36 GITCI-IE GUMEE THE ORA TORI CAL CONTEST. .W . ., -..-,..... . l J, A, CADIGAN, W.

Catherine Leader. Miss Jessie Roberts, as the prima, was certainly touching. Her pathetic rendering of the newest hit, My Sweet- heart's the Man in the Moon, would draw tears from a member of the faculty to say nothing of many of the tender young Seniors who were to be seen in the various boxes and seats. An interesting feature of the perform- ance was the unique lighting of the stage. The auburn Q?j haired girls served as footlights. Miss Florence Connell was called home by the serious illness and death of her brother at their home in Hay- ward. Miss Connell returned to her studies at the beginning of the last quarter.

The exhibition given by the gymnas- ium classes April 4th, was the first pub- lic exhibition of gymnastic work given entirely by the young women of the Normal school. Although Superior winds we1'e trying to keep people indoors that evening. there was a large attend- ance. This gratified the performers and gave them spirit for their work. To judge from the hearty applause that greeted each class as it appeared on the floor and the still heartier clapping that accompanied them on their outward march, the audience must have been re- paid for the battle with the elements. The drills that looked so easy to the onlookers meant many hours hard work training is started in the kindergarten in and and the various games played there, is continued throughout the grades into the Normal department. The work is graded according to the age and development of the pupils. ln the primary department, games form the principal part of the work. Children need the freedom and relaxa- tion that comes with play, and need to be guided into fairness and unseliish- ness. NrVith the games come the little gymnastic stories. In this work the teacher may tell the story and have the children act it out, or she may simply suggest a topic, and let the children make up the story and the action. For ex- NORMAL CLASSES IN THE GYMNASIUM for the performers. The movements that glided so easily one into the other, had each been practiced separately and learned accurately before it was put with its neighbor. All this meant develop- ment for the girl not only in skill and strength, but also in greater mental power. So while they worked for the artistic effect to please their friends, the greater work was for the girl's own growth-both physical and mental. The exercises given that night drew the in- terest of the public toward the gymnas- ium and opened the eyes of many to the work done there. ' All who enter the Normal school have the benefits of the gymansium. The ample, the teacher may say, It is a nice day for a picnic. let us play we are going to the woods. The children will then suggest that we skip, or run, or march to the picnic grounds. Next they will suggest imitating the movement of the leaves on the trees, or the bending of the boughs. They will make believe they are jumping rope, throwing ball, or doing any of the various things one would do on a picnic. This develops the child's imagination as well as his muscles, and allows him freedom to work off his surplus energy. The games and stories of these grades are supplemented by simple movements of head, trunk and limbs, and also by GITCHE GUMEE 43 marching. W'hen possible this work is accompanied by music so as to develop the childis sense of rhythm. Children, generally, are not rhythmical as is shown in their early endeavors to keep time in simple marching. Very few children can keep step without a great deal of patient work on the part of the teacher. The dancing school master usually meets his VVaterloo in the teaching of time. But when rhythm is once instilled into the mind of the child, it is unforget- able and serves as a guide in all his work. The importance of rhythm can- not be overestimated, and it was learned by the ancients who often had their slaves do work to music or to the beating of cymbals. In the intermediate grades the work each child, and his faulty attitudes point- ed out and corrected by simple exer- cises. This latter work is given out of class time in order that the teacher may have greater supervision over it. The simple combinations of move- ments given in the intermediate grades lead to the harder work of the grammar department. In these grades as well as in the lower ones, we find the round shoulders, llat chests, and drooping heads, for faulty attitudes are not over- come in a short time. Their cure de- pends upon the regular conscientious work done by the individual. But with the children of this age pride and imita- tion help the teacher in her struggle for poise. Military drill is introduced at this time as an aid to correct carriage NORMAL CLASSES IN THE GYMNASIUM becomes form an more complex. Games still important part in the training, but they require more thought and more strength. Competitive games are used, thus stimulating rivalry, which, if not carried to excess. forms a good stimulus for work. The gymnastic stories of the lower grades are dropped, and the work takes on a more serious aspect as ac- curacy is now required in all movements. The simple movements of head, trunk, and limbs are combined, and formed into easy drills,' and the work in co-ordina- tion is begun. Stretching exercises are given to relieve the strained positions so often held in the school room. Exer- cises for poise and for developing Hex- ibility of chest hold first place in these grades. Individual attention is given to and to instill ready response to com- mand. The drills with wands and dumb hells are becoming difficult and need power of co-ordination and some strength. Indian club Work is added for sake of variety Zlllfl to increase the flex- ibility of wrists and shoulders. The work for the boys and girls of these grades differs essentially. The girls are given relaxing exercises, fancy steps, and asthetic work to make them light of foot and easy of movement. The boys require more strength and courage, hence their time is spent on the ap- paratus where they learn to climb ropes and poles, and to work upon the ladder rings and parallel bars. The aim in all the grades is to cor- rect faulty attitudes to give all muscles 44 GITCI-IE GUMEE a stimulus to grow ,and to inculcate a love for healthy activity. The wo1'k in the gymnasium must counteract all the bad habits of the school-room and home. lt would fail in its purpose if it did not guide the child through his most strenu- ous hours and send him forth full of hope and strength and power to hold his head high and to look the world full in the face. Il. The work in the Normal department starts with a review of the elementary work, for we find many students who have had no training in this line, and some who have forgotten that they ever romped around like other children. l'er- haps the hardest thing for these classes to do is to learn to play. The girls are interesting and apparently I1lO1'C difficult. W'hen these simple movements can be taken easily and' accurately, the body bends and twists are added, and so throughout the course, the work grows harder and harder and the muscular power grows steadily. indian club work Delsartc, and fancy steps are started during the first quarter, for the student must be trained to be graceful as well as strong and accurate. The second quarter finds the work progressing along the line of co-ordina- tion. The movements lea1'ned in the previous lessons ar-J put into all easy combinations and the student has to think as well as act. Greater quickness in passing from one movement to the next makes the work still more difficult and NORMAL CLASSES IN THE GYMNASILJM especially awkward at first and it is a sad sight to see them attempt the firstlfew gymnastic games. In order that the student may become more natural and easier in action, 1nucl1 of the time dur- ing the first quarter is devoted to games. By the end of the second quarter most of the students have become limbered up and can play with the zest of chil- dren. The gymnastic exercises during the first quarter begin with the simplest free movements. the placing of arm or foot in the various positions. These move- ments are repeated each day with slight variations until they are learned ac- curately. Then they are combined and given with either dumbbells or wands for variety. This makes the work more one begins to realize that, though the fundamental movements of head, trunk and limbs remain the same, the infinite combinations made of them and the dif- ferent time required, make them appear absolutely new. In the remaining quart- ers devoted to this work many new and advanced movements are taught, but most of the work is progressing through difficult combinations. Military tactics hold an important place throughout the entire course, be- cause through them the students uncon- sciously acquire a better carriage and be- come more accurate in movement. To see an advanced class drilling one would little think that a few months before half of the number could not keep step, that few could take even an ordinary Y GITCIIE GUMEE 45 leng'th stride, and that a square corner for a column of fours was an utter im- possibility! This military work, requir- ing as it does, so much thought, precision and poise has very little physiological value. lt, therefore, is given but a few minutes on each day's program so that the greater part of the lesson may be devoted to such drills as tend to develop more muscle or to give more skill.
