fcJU TIM DAN HILL LIBRARY University of Wisconsin superior SUPERIOR. WISCONSIN 548B0 « irhiration A. B. � . ©illrtt It seems fitting that we should dedicate this issue of the Gitche Gumee to one who has played such a large part in making this, and other issues a success. Mr. Gillctt was horn at Ogden. Iowa, August sixth, 1877. He is a graduate of the Nelson Dewey High School, and of the State Normal School, of Superior, Wisconsin. After graduating he taught in the Nelson Dewey High School from 1897 to 1901, and in the Blaine High School of Superior in 1902. In 1902 he received the degree of B. I;., and in 1907 the degree of A. M. from the University of Wisconsin. For the. past eight years Mr. Gillctt has been a member of the faculty of the State Normal School of Superior, and by his keen observation, clean thinking, energy and pertinacity in execution lie has made himself successful in his profession. Mr. Gillctt has always been deeply interested in this school and its success, and he has always served it with intelligence and devotion. He has been Advisory Editor of the Gitche Gurnee for the past few years, and it is through him that the paper has been a success. In recognition of his splendid service, which he has given to the Gitche Gumee for the past years, the Gitche Gumee staff dedicate to Mr. Gillctt the Gitche Gumee of 1912. 22 77? ✓ THE DIVINE SCULPTOR, Tell me, my friend, man of the world, By whose mighty hand the leaf is curled, By whose cautious hand the earth was shaped, By whose, the cloud curtains, o’er us draped. Can you tell it to me, my worthy friend, Whose trusting hand had the power to rend The seas away from the spacious land? Tell me, my friend, who owns that hand? Is it you. or is it I? Or may it be a passer-by? I think we know without demand, Who it is that owns that hand. At all events, it isn’t mine, For the one who owns it is divine. —Bertha Ryan. (4) A FEW OK TIIE FACULTY. If in lit. you wish to shine, And for more time always pine, Keeping on working, working still, Call at Room 18 and see our Phil. History is no snap, I’m sure, For the maids who are demure; He makes you work to a fare thee well, Our Arthur Dudley Samuel. Dear old Daddy, on third floor, Knows geology and some more; Jimmy is a wise, wise man, Try to beat him if you can. Jane’s a pal ’mong kindergartners, We’ll all try to be good partners; Jolly, lively and witty, too, For a good time Jane will do. Asa Marshfield’s boss down stairs, Lightens all our trials and cares, lias a smile for everyone, With that smile he’s always won. Luella, she can sing a few, You bet your life, that she can do; Teaching music is her stunt, To study it makes some folks grunt. If in third or fourth grade you would teach, See our Amy, she’s a peach; Knows just how to do it all, Tells you when you’re apt to fall. All hail to Gracie, our true friend, May this happiness never end; She’s a woman loved by all, Every girl in Crownhart Hall. On the Brule, our jolly Mac Has good times in his rustic shack; Superior Normal ne’er would live Without our Mac to guide and give. (• ) V. E. MCCASKILL President A. B. Ohio Wesleyan 1 93 A. M.

Wyman Superior thou mighty lake with waters deep and clear, The breezes whisper low to thee, the sunbeams hover near. What lessons may we learn of thee of patience, strenghth and might. Superior! Superior! We love thy waters bright. And like thy strength and beauty rare, our dear old Normal stands— A source of inspiration wide, which reaches to far lands, We’ll always stand and give a cheer as memories come back. Superior! Superior! Hurrah for orange and black. (9) TO THE NORMAL. The whiteness of the flower on the hillside, Has lost its lustre when we pluck the stem. The cloud is only mist when we attain it. Ideals are but dreams. Only when We reach the goal our Normal days set for us We feel the chill of disillusions’ blast We think more of those dead days left behind us, Their lights but not the shadows—Now at last We know their worth, those true friends of the past. However far the way may lead us from thee, However high the mountain that we climb, The path we tread is smoother, for we’ve known thee, Thy inspiration lifts us from the grime Of trouble, care and work which pave the pathway. That highway winding out to life from thee We’ll not forget the way back to thy portals Our thoughts will ever tinged with reverence be Of one who touched life with sublimity. -E. E. W.

But the lack of time and space are prohibitive of even mention being made in this article of the great historical happenings associated with the existence of this class. We must leave to future records the rendering of due credit to the epoch-making events that might here he chronicled. Like Columbus, Lincoln, Cleveland and other great men who were not appreciated at the time of their service, we too expect to receive our glories as time shall enable people to view our great deeds in their right prospective. Hack in ti e year of nineteen hundred eight, ninety-three struggling and timid freshmen started the struggle that would some day bring to them the ideal most cherished in the hearts—to teach. This Freshman class later came into prominence by presenting the first vaudeville show in the history of the school. All members played their parts nobly, but Myrtle Bowser, in the role of Mile. Humanflopski, the tight rope walker, was easily the star. The Freshman band,' under the leadership of Charles Rangier, aided greatly to the success of the shows as well as other unique and praiseworthy features. To Knock Fuller great credit, must be given because as president of this class he many times served as an inspiration to spur these some day pedagogues on to greater things. In nineteen hundred nine and ten, Giles Brown was elected to the president’s chair and he attained the standard set by his predecessor. Nothing of very great importance happened to the class in their second year, they devoting the time almost entirely to scholastic industry, and only the Titian locks of Mary Rooney rendered the class at all conspicuous in ihe galaxy of constellations in the Normal horizon. In 1911, the class returned and we were lacking nearly two-thirds of our original number, who had become appalled at the strenuous pace of Normal life, or had only wished to complete the elementary course, or had obtained as much education in two years as ordinary people do in four. We did not feel small, however, because we were joined by nearly fifty high school graduates from Superior, Ashland, Washburn, Kan Claire, and other numerous towns of the state. For the first half of the year “Dutch” Zieman was chosen to guide the class in their social, ethical and intellectual functions. “Dutch,” through his love for good times, had the class give a Junior hop in the middle of November. It was a success and brought the members of the class into greater fellowship than had existed heretofore. On January twenty-eighth, Miriam Yccdcr succeeded Mr. Zieman to the generalship of this remarkable army of young men and women. Little need be said of Miriam’s administration, as every member of the school knew by her sincere and untiring spirit that she would be an honorable leader for our class. And now we come to the utopian year of all, nineteen hundred twelve. The class numbered nearly ninety and when on September twenty-first they met to choose their president it was found that Nellie Melby was the unanimous choice. It was not hard for a casual observer to foretell the (27) inevitable success of the class in all undertakings. Nell was from start to finish a “pusher” for the Seniors. She at once appointed her various committees and called a meeting of the class to decide upon the class colors, which are brown and gold. Prom the beginning of our career in this institution this class has been remarkable for the brilliancy of its members. Never has a class been so conspicuous for the number of its excellent thinkers as has this one. All along many of our company have attracted attention by their unusually fine scholarship, and now when our association is almost ended, we arc proud to call attention to the fact that ten of our number have made an average of ninety or above in all their work for the time they have been here. One may think that these are our only brilliant ones, but let me say that this is entirely the wrong impression for many times the school has listened to the songs of Ktliel (Jordon, the speechifying power of our wonder Yvonne, and the jokes of Frances Donahue. We arc glad to welcome in our midst girls who once left us, went out to teach and returned. Daisy McLaughlin, Marie McCarty, Jennie Clark and Ida Ilardy taught for a short period of time and then returned to the fold, for profit to themselves and our enjoyment. Members of this Senior Class of nineteen hundred twelve have been good boosters to athletics, dancing and study, and while we have only five young men we are glad to say that they possess such unusual ability, sterling worth and handsome appearance, that it is for the good of the class that we do not have a larger number of young men because of the stir and flutter it would make in feminine hearts. These men have been Russian dancers, have sung in male quartets, played in star athletic teams, worked on news papers, have been interested in oratory and even went so far as to investigate the theory and practice of cooking. We are all quite sure that when the boys depart from this alma mater they will leave a yawning chasm in the school life that will take many a year to fill. As T look back and sec the hardships and discouraging moments every one of this class has undergone and then sec them emerge from this seething struggle victorious, I know that every member of this class is a fighter of the right kind. We have been put to the test and passed with high marks literally and figuratively. I also know that the thorny path that we have traveled over will serve as an impetus to other classes, who may feel that at times the stress and strain are not. worth while, but when they see the splendor that surrounds the victors they will surely know that although it meant mighty effort yet the satisfaction of having worked and accomplished, striven and succeeded, exceeds all other rewards. Our Symphony To give our fullest measure of gratitude to God, who hath given us Life and Work and Love, to make the world a better place in which to live, because we have passed this way with loving hearts and helping hands; to do conscientiously the little things that we may grow large enough for the greater duties; to judge others leniently, knowing that as we mete shall it be meted unto us; to keep an ideal ever before us as a spur to worthy endeavor; to live so that we shall ever he at home among noble hearts and pure thoughts on earth, and with God in those farther mansions not made by hands. The Senior Banquet On Thursday evening, January twenty-fifth, the Seniors gave a banquet in the students dining hall at the Normal School, for the mid-year graduates. Practically all of the members of the class were present as well as several members of the faculty. A feature of the evening was the toasts. Mr. Toohy acted as toastmaster and called upon several members of the class and of the faculty to give toasts to the Class of lf)12. the January graduates, the June grauates, the Senior hoys, leap year, the influence of the alumni, and class reunions. After the banquet, which was enjoyed l� y all, the party adjourned to the gymnasium, where some time was spent in dancing. The class regretted very much that Esther Itcese, Alta Terry and Nellie Melby could not have been present, their new positions necessitated their leaving before that night. (29) The Senior Class Pla} The Seniors this year will give the merry college farce. “A Strenuous Life.” The east of characters chosen is exceptionally strong and under Miss McQuilkin’s coaching the play cannot he anything hut a great success. THE STORY OF THE PLAY. Tom Harrington, the leading character, is captain of the California football team. And while in pursuit cf athletics, he has neglected his work in the. classes. At the opening of the play when he is about to he disciplined by the faculty for his short-comings, he receives a note from his father saying that that gentleman is to visit him. and sec how well he has been doing. Now, since Torn has led his father to believe that lie is an exemplary student, the situation is embarrassing. In the midst of all his concern, father appears. Tom’s chum, Reginald Black, evolves a great plan of dressing up some one to look like a professor, and have that person tell Tom’s father that his son is a splendid student. They impress a freshman for this purpose. Unfortunately, the name chosen is that of the new professor expected to arrive—Professor James of the rival university. The newly created professor is taken for the real man. who is expected. Tom makes the best of this, but to his consternation, the real Professor James arrives on the scene, and in order to save himself, Tom is compelled to introduce him as Freshman. It is then that the fun starts. There is an initiation of the real professor into a bogus fraternity, and the troubles of the freshman professor trying to act the professor. At the same time, a girl that Tom has made love to the night before the dance, turns up. and is enmeshed in the general tangle. Situation follows situation until at last Tom is cornered and seems to have no chance to escape. But he is saved hv bringing up a Japanese school girl servant for corroboration. The Japanese can say nothing in English but “Yis.” So, of course, he hears out Tom in every particular, and the football captain emerges triumphant. CAST OF CHARACTERS.

Our business career has been very brilliant, and we can show you with pride our records in geography, history or any subject we have undertaken. On our records you will find no “funking,” as is seen in many other freshman records. “I don’t know’7 has never been a popular saying amongst us, nor have we had a teacher, especially Mr. Merrill, say “Speak louder,” when we have nothing to say. Our social career has not been as brilliant, since we have used all the material on our business career, and, as Rev. Grimes said, we are a little “lop-sided” in this way. Our earnest desire is that all future classes may follow our example. E. GRAY. (35) DRAMA. STUDY CLUB Lange. Wright. Bowser. Fuley. ToJJ, Free. Societies , Johnson, Nygaard.

In the preliminary oratorical contest, the Superior Normnl students had an opportunity to be delighted with beautiful music and moved by eloquent words. In its appeal to the eye, the contest was most satisfactory. The decorations in the assembly were very simple and artistic. The platform was banked with green foliage and the effect was not splendid but rather delicate and graceful. Before the contest there was little or no yelling or display of class spirit which was probably due to the fact that all the aspirants were Seniors. However, they were given in the following order: Music.........................................................Glee Club Oration—Greed and Graft..................................Dorothy Iloehlo Oration—Sham Patriotism...........................................Croft Toohy Oration—Joan of Arc....................................Yvonne Dauplaise Oration—The Sin of the Prison............................Loren McQueen Oration—Co-operation vs. Competition...............................Enoch Puller Music.................Misses Gunderson, Brcusaugh, Stcrland and Gordon The decision of judges............Mr. Ilembdt, Mr. Smith and Miss Milam Miss IJoehle handled the present day question in a very admirable manner, and showed her listeners why greed and graft have corrupted not only politics but also home life, and that the only salvation from it was to have the people use the “golden rule as a standard of measurement. Mr. Toohy considered the subject of sham patriotism in a forceful manner. lie proved that outward show and tinsel is not what we need, but that true patriotism is rooted in the heart of a nation. Miss Dauplaise delivered her oration on the work and life of the French shepherdess, Joan of Arc, in a pleasing manner, proving that she was the true type of womanly greatness. She was awarded second place. Mr. McQueen chose as his subject, the defective penal system of this country and showed his listeners how it made criminals into worse criminals. As a reform, lie offered the abolishing of factory work in the prison, and the open air reformatory as a cure for lung starvation. He produced a good effect on the audience and was awarded first place. Mr. Fuller handled the difficult question of co-operation in a com- (39) mendable manner. He proved that the competition system was unprofitable, and unworthy of a nation such as ours. A chorus by the Glee club formed a fitting close for the evening’s performance. THE INTER-NORMAL CONTEST. The next month witnessed a great deal of work done by Mr. McQueen, who expended a great deal of time and energy in working over the oration he was to deliver at the Inter-Normal contest at Platteville, on March 23. Two days before this, on Wednesday, Mr. McQueen started for Platteville amid the cheers and good-will of the entire school. Nothing of note happened on his trip, except that he reached Platteville without a reception and remained there one whole day without being questioned as to who he was, and where he dropped from. At the rally on Friday afternoon at the Platteville Normal assembly hall, he made himself lastingly famous by advocating not only the new system of debates, but also its originator, Mr. Hembt, in a manner worthy of praise. Miss MacQuilkin and Miss Dauplaise left Superior one day later, but owing to several delays, including a very pleasant (?) three-hour stop in a snow drift near Platteville, they were all but late to the contest. They were received with the same hearty welcome as was tendered our orator, and they enjoyed it equally well. The culminating event of the meeting was the contest which was held in the City Hall. Long before eight o’clock the hall began to fill with delegates, Platteville students and townspeople. It was evident from the outset that there was no lack of school spirit-Yell followed yell in rapid succession. Apparently each delegation was determined to assert itself. Naturally the Platteville students had the advantage. yet the visiting schools made up in enthusiasm what they lacked in numbers. Superior, it is needless to say, fell under this class, yet our orator was surprised to hear, from his place of refuge behind the curtain the lusty yell of IJ-Rah-Eah-Superior, given by the LaCrosse and Oshkosh delegations. This prelude was very pleasantly interspersed with musical selections by the Platteville Normal orchestra and band. Platteville’s speaker was the first to appear, and he was greeted with a tremendous applause. He explained the great problem of industrial democracy. His appearance was in his favor, and he was awarded fourth place. The orator from Stevens Point was placed at a disadvantage owing to physical disability, yet this was strongly in his favor owing to the fact that his oration dealt with the passing of militarism because of the cripples it left behind it. His ending was the best part of his oration, yet he was not not especially strong. He was awarded third place. The young lady from Milwaukee was the next to appear with her plea for woman suffrage. She was well trained, yet we were satisfied that our orator had not yet been outclassed. She was given second place. The Whitewater orator was not exceptionally remarkable. He displayed the class struggle in America, but his oration was hard to follow. He was awarded fifth place. There was one eternal breath of silence over the room when our orator began to speak. To say that he “filled them all with wonder” is not to do him justice. He never did better, and it is doubtless if he will ever again deliver it in such an effective and forceful manner as he did that night. We were proud of him, and every one else agreed with us. The place he carried back is not altogether significant of what he earned. If oratory is meant not only to stir people’s feelings and hearts, but also to arouse action, Mr. McQueen deserved a place near the top, and people did not hesitate to say so. The next speaker made little or no impression. The contrast with the former speaker was too great to leave him at an advantage. Eighth place. However, the speaker from Oshkosh, who talked on the American negro, deserves favorable comment. He was full of his subject and filled his listeners with it. He was given seventh place. Mr. Jones from Lacrosse had a remarkably well written oration and delivered it in an up-to-date style that was generally pleasing. His appearance was not in his favor, yet this was counteracted by his careful thought and composition. He earned first place. We feel that though we did not bring back the greatest honors, we left an impression that will not readily be forgotten in the southern part of the state. (41) 0ITCHE GUMEE STAFF.

To the business manager, who has worked so faithfully and zealously, we feel especially grateful. The artists and special editors have worked hard and patiently. We wish to thank the alumni and alumni editor for their co-operation. In all our trials and perplexities the advisory editor, Mr. Gillett, has been our guide and mainstay. The business men who have been generous in advertising in our paper and thereby helping us financially should be patronized by the readers of this paper. {R HU 93 Students, the talks you have listened to this year which have incidentally mentioned school spirit in other schools, have been given for a purpose. Our school is decidedly lacking in this respect, no matter how proficient it may be in other lines. We do not stand together, our interests are inclined to be selfish. We think only of our own individual duties in which we, (13) as individuals, are concerned, and we have nothing in common with our classmates—we lack school spirit. When class meetings are called, do we attend? The officers do, but the rest do not. and do all other business as they call it first and then last of all give their attention to the class meeting. Do not feel that the class can get along without you, for it can’t. Everything done in the meeting is for the good of the class and the school, and if it proves harmful, you, as a member of the class, are to blame. By having an interest in class affairs, one naturally has an interest in school affairs. We are one family and each a member of it, one as important as the other. Therefore, we as members of this family should feel every defeat and every victory that comes to our school. In order to feel this, we must give our hearty support to every movement made by the school, in literary, social and athletic activities. It is not necessary that enthusiasm be so extreme as to carry it beyond its bounds, but it is necessary that it at least may be known that the students of our school take pride and interest in the things which are for the advancement of the school. Students, this thought is worthy of your consideration. 'Why are we deficient in this respect. How can we remedy it? Let us not be merely a collection of individuals enrolled in different classes, but let ns be a related family, having family ties which will cause us to rejoice or be sorrowful at every success or failure. ■I: I ■ From every side today, we hear of reunions: City reunions, or home eomings, family reunions and various others. But what reunion is more enjoyable than a class reunion? Why should not we as class hold an annual reunion? In the past, classes have drifted apart and many have regretted that this should be the case. Let 1913 sec us all back joining as heartily as ever into the spirit and activity of the S. N. S. to show that we are interested in its growth and are still a part of it. m m m (TWS 0 0 rn t When the time for the declamatory contest comes again we shall find very few who are willing to make any preparation for entering it. Now, to make this a success all the pupils who are talented along this line should enter, for here is an opportunity for one to do something which will be of a great value to him. Of course, you may be crowded with work, and thus be prevented from spending much time upon such work, but by starting early you will not miss the time so spent and the benefits to be derived from such work can hardly be overestimated. You may not win the first time you try, all cannot win first honors, but here is the opportunity to at least try. And remember, it is only by trying that success in any line of work i ever achieved. Letter from a Former Editor April 24th, 1912. Dear Miss Editor:—You ask me, as a member of the Alumni, for a contribution to the (Jitchc of 1912. As such I hesitate to attempt anything because no one knows better than I bow little any of the renders of this good journal cares for what may be said by a person who has gone from the school for even one year. The members of the Alumni are cjuite generally looked upon as mere Shades from the Land of the Departed Spirits. Blit I, for one, hate to feel that just because we do not happen to be present at roll call each day we no longer belong to the institution or it to us, because I believe the relation is just as close, just as dear as when we met daily in its class rooms. So then, comes this little sacrifice to the editorial blue pencil—it may even become a “burnt offering”—in the hope that it may help in the unification of the factors upon which the greatest extension of the influence of the school depends. We arc prone to think of the Superior Normal as a building of brick and stone, surrounded by a campus, situated on Grand avenue, which is in the city of Superior, Wisconsin. This it was only until it had a president, a faculty, a student body, an alumni, and then it became a radiant dynamic force whose influence is at least, state-wide and each member of any of these factors is a part of this unit. It is stronger or weaker as we are strong or weak; valuable, reputable, live, vigorous, forceful, just in proportion that we possess these qualities. Let us recognize this unity, this entity, and strive to make it more complete. The slogan of Chicago is. “I Will.” the motto of Wisconsin, “Forward,” and the watchword of Superior Normal is just “Make Good.” It is the only injunction given to each graduate and if we look around a little we will see that nearly “Everybody’s Doing It.” May they continue until this phrase becomes a by-word in Wisconsin education. “Superior Graduates Make Good.” Let us all, all the factors, join in making a true Superior spirit. Let us “Co-operate and assist—not criticise and find fault.” Let Superior signify solidity of interests.—all for the institution and the institution for all. Hoping that the 1912 Gitchc will surpass all predecessors and that 1913 and 1914 will do the same. I am Yours for progress, E. N. CALEF.

Our hearts are just, as light and gay As any summer breeze; And when we have a thing to do We do it with great ease. Oh, we are not afraid of work! We’ve learned a better way than shirk! We turn our task into a game And proceed to play the same. Chorus: Playing, playing, playing at our game. Doing hard things called by an easy name. We are learning the golden rule That’s taught at Superior Normal School; For Kindergartners all are we And we’ll certainly be game. 2. Of all the things that we can do, Of all the things we make, If we should tell them all to you A long time it would take. If Satan wished to be unkind, He’d have a very hard time to find A way to play his tricks on us Busy Kindergarten girls. Chorus—Playing, playing, etc. 3. If you would find eternal youth Just take a hint from us. Come take the kindergarten course Where there’s no time to fuss! All wrinkles we will chase away, In work and song and dance and play, We’ve found that joy in work’s the way To be ever young and gay!

Till the eyes are heavy and dim; Theory, plans and teaching, Weaving, folding, seams, Till over our note books, we fall asleep, And write them up in our dreams. 2. But even tho’ the work is hard, Whatever is worth our while, Requires work and lots of it, So we should simply smile. And think how good it really is, To have a chance to work, For we all know it makes us great, To labor and not to shirk. (47) 3. Miss Robbins is our songster, Without her what would we do; She the jolliest mite in the region, All the way thro’ and thro’; She’s the happiest one among us, She brightens the darkest day, The school can’t do without her, In either their work or play. 4. With faces bright and cheery, With eyes all sparkling with mirth, The Junior girls with earnest desire, Are alwnvs ready for work. Work! Work! Work! With paper, raphia and yarn, And still not a one, their duty would shirk, So working they come to no harm. 5. Oh! but to hear the words, Of Miss Barbour, our leader grand, Makes us feel and know full well, We’re glad we’re of her band; Her smiles are full of love, For all her friends so true, And everyone may rest assured, Her true friends are not a few. 6. The Seniors all adore her, The Juniors are next in line, The faculty listen gravely To the words of this member so fine; To know her is to love her, This we’ll always preach, • And if you don’t believe us, Just call on her for a speech. 7. With dignity, natural and calm, With countenance earnest and mild, The Senior girls come to their daily work, With smiles for each little child. Work! Work! Work! Willingly doing their part, Never attempting their duty to shirk, Working with mind and heart. 8. Seniors they are, indeed, Striving as best they can To find the path to the greatest good, That can be gained by man. On! On! On! To their duty reconciled, Ever and ever their voices raised, Singing the song of the child. (48) 1 .the _bj6t red auTPA obile TI M. W. The clock struck five, the last visitor made his way out of the great hospital, the elevator descended, the little doctor, with his black satchel, passed out into the street and the big doors were closed to the outside world. The black-garbed nurses hurried through the halls with trays laden with various dainty invalids’ dishes. Through the corridors the last strains of the vesper chant wafted their way from the little chapel tip to the third floor, and the light of another Sunday faded into night. The Sick Man turned in his bed, groaned, and waited. Presently he heard the soft patter of footsteps leading to his room; the lights were switched on. and his supper was put before him. “Are you hungry tonight?” asked the nurse, as she placed the pillows at his back and swung the invalid’s table within his reach. “Hungry? Yes, I am hungry, Sister,” and his eyes devoured the meal before him. The nurse smiled and was gone. Still a little awkward in the use of his left hand, the Sick Man sipped the gruel, ate the toast, and drank the tea: in the meantime casting hungry glances at a tiny piece of cake. Cake! My, how he loved it. This was the first cake the nurse had brought him, and he was going to make it last as long, and taste as good as possible. Presently a little shuffling noise was heard. The door was pushed open just a little. A smile came over the Sick Man’s face as he detected a muffled. scraping sound as of something moving on the floor toward the foot of the bed. lie waited, holding a piece of toast half way between the tray and his mouth. A little curly head shot suddenly into view at the foot of the Sick Man’s bed and “Hello!” sounded and resounded in his head. “Why, hello, Hoy! You haven’t been taking very good care of me today, sir. I’ve had to feed myself three times, and comb my own hair, and nobody has been here to tell me the time, (live an account of yourself.” The Hov edged his way along the side of the bed. lie had spied the cake. “Hurry up. sir. Where have you been?” “Ciuess,” shouted the Boy, but his eyes did not leave the cake. “Let’s sec. You’ve been eating,” figured the Sick Man, as he discovered some tiny spots on the front Hoy’s white blouse. “You’ve been out doors.” and he looked at the rosy cheeks and tousled curls. “You’ve been to the doctor’s for dinner,” philosophized the Sick Man. “No, sir; I had my dinner at the hotel and then I rode in a big, black automobile all over town. I came in to tell you goodbye, but mother said not to wake you if you were sleeping.” (49) “So your mother's been alone all day, has she? Wasn’t she glad to have you come back?” “Indeed she was. She had a piece of cake, too, on her tray, and she gave me half, and then she said she wished she had another piece,” prattled the Hoy. The Sick Man gave one longing look at his first bit of luxury. “Here, Hoy, you take this to your mother.” The Hoy grabbed the cake, doubled his little fist over it, and, with a shout, left the Sick Man. The nurse appeared, shook the pillows, placing one under the bandaged arm. and smoothed the covers. “Did you like the cake?” she asked, as she gathered tlie empty dishes. “It was fine, Sister. Thank you.” he answered, and he settled down in the pillows. So the Hoy had been to the hotel for dinner, and had been riding in a “big, black automobile.” How long the day had been without- the little visitor! Surely the four long weeks would have been unbearably dark, had it not been for the little beams of sunshine accompanying the Hoy’s visits. The Sick Man had taught him to tell time, and had allowed the Boy to wear the big watch in his blouse pocket, and to announce proudly the time, upon his many inquiries. The Hoy was always there to open his letters for him, with the new knife the doctor had given him. On many occasions, the Hoy had dismissed the gentle nurse, and had fed the Sick Man his gruel, when lie was unable to raise his head from the pillow, lie loved to brush the stubborn hair from the Sick Man’s forehead, with savage strokes and loving pats. Indeed, he had been the Sick Man’s right arm until now the left was be mg slowly trained to take its place. Many time , with his sunny head cuddled beside the big. brown one. he had taken his afternoon nap with his big friend. Thus pondered the Sick Man, and lie wondered if the doctor would let him leave the hospital before the Hoy’s mother was able to leave. For he was sure he would he very lonely without the little follow. Hut if she was able to eat cake, she must he getting well as fast as he was. He wondered who had taken the Hoy from him today. Another shout announced the Hoy, and he hounded into the room carrying a big. red carnation. 11 is curly hair had been smoothed down, his soiled blouse changed for a starched, clean one. and his Inight face shone as he held the flower under the Sick Man’s nose and said, “Mother says. ‘Thank you for the cake.’ and here’s a flower for you. We brought her a whole liox full today and this is the biggest one. and sometime when you arc well, and mother is well, we are going to take you for a ride. And we won’t let you get run into and break your arm again, either, because lie said so.” “Who said so. Hoy?” “Oh, the man that took me to dinner today and gave me a ride. lie’s mother's and my friend and I told him you would want a ride, when your arm gets well, and you and mother and I can go. I’m going again some Sunday, too.” A smile crept over the Sick Man’s face. Suddenly bis eyes brightened and be said. “Sec here, Hoy, you mustn’t leave your mother all day again. You must take better core of her, so she can get well soon. And then I think you’d better be careful about these big. black automobiles. If you should break your arm. who would take care of your mother, and, Hoy, who would open my letters for me?” The Boy’s face clouded, and he looked at the bandaged arm and then at his own. “I’m not afraid,” said he. (SO) “No, of course not, but wouldn’t you rather ride in a nice, big, red automobile, Hoy?” The boy was thinking. “I’m going to have a nice, new, red one ns soon as this arm gets well Boy.” “You bet I would like a red one. And will you take mother and mo for a long, long ride some day?” The Sick Man was thinking. “And then you can come to our house for dinner, and I'll show you 1. _ my engine, and my clown, and we’ll play burglar like Daddy and I used to.” And with one yell after another, the Boy dashed wildly around the room on his hands and knees, shooting an imaginary revolver at his wondering friend. “Come here. Boy,” ordered the Sick Man, as soon as iiis voice could be heard. “We’ll keep this a secret, shall we, and we’ll not tell a soul. Can you keep a secret ? ’ ’ “Can I? You bet I can, and we won’t even tell him. will we?” “Who’s him?” “Why, that man with the big, black automobile.” “No, sir; I should sav we won’t. No more black automobiles for us, eh, Boy?” The kind face of the Sister appeared at the door of the sick Man’s room and told the Boy his mother wanted him. He took the big, gold watch from his pocket and handed it to its owner, as was the custom upon taking his leave each night. But tonight the Sick Man said: “I guess you may keep it tonight. Boy. Put it under your pillow, and don’t oversleep.” The brave little accomplice was soon fast asleep and the big watch ticked. “Don’t tell—don’t tell—don’t tell.” (51) Thai night the Sick Man dreamed that lie and the Boy were riding in a red automobile, and they ran head-long into a black automobile. The red one bore right along, uninjured, until they met a little, white-faced, black-gowned lady. The Sick Man stopped the machine to take her in. Just then his breakfast was brought in, and the nurse placed the thermometer in the Sick Man’s mouth, and he heard her say, “Normal. One day the Sick Man’s mother received a letter—the result of a hard struggle with a left hand. It. said.— “Yes, mother. I am getting well. The doctor thinks 1 can leave in a week, and then it will not be many days before you will see your wondering bachelor son. The days here in the hospital have been so pleasant that I would hesitate at leaving such good friends were it not for the fact that life, as I look forward to it now, looks brighter and fuller than ever. The Boy stamped the envelope, mailed it in the box at the end of the corridor, and tripped back to bis chum. “Mother said she wished somebody would come and take her out for an automobile ride. I guess she wonders why he doesn’t come. I met him in the hall this morning. He was coming up to take me for a ride, and I told him my mother didn’t want me to ride in that automobile ever again because I would break my arm. Because, you know, I told her black automobiles were dangerous, ’cause you broke your arm in a black automobile. And she said she would like tr ride in a red one then. I haven’t told the secret though, have T? “Oh, no, Boy, you haven’t told, laughed the Sick Man. 'File next day the doctor said the Sick Man could leave the hospital on Sunday, and he was so happy he sent for his little partner. And, when the Boy found his friend sitting up in a chair, he bounded across the room and landed in the big man’s lap. “I’m going to leave you Sunday, Boy, said the Sick Man. “Can’t you go till Sunday? Mother can go Thursday, and I’m going to be six years old Sunday, and we are going to have a fine time at oiu house.’’ “‘Well, that will be bully, said the Sick Man. “But I shall be lonesome for you those three days. Boy. My new, red automobile is coming after me Sunday, and I’ll go by your house, if you will tell me where it is, and you can stand by the window and watch me whiz by in that fine, big, red car. The Boy sat perfectly still in the Sick Man’s lap and cuddled his curly head on the big shoulder. For a long time he sat still and suddenly a pair of little arms went around the Sick Man’s neck and with a big squeeze lie left his friend. Wednesday was a long day for the Sick Man. He bad neither seen nor heard the Boy. and he concluded that the little fellow and bis mother had left a day earlier than they had hoped to. lie wrote to his mother,— “This has been a long day. and I shall be glad to leave Sunday, for I am anxious to get out and hustle with the rest of the world. When the nurse brought his breakfast, the next day, she said, “Do you miss your little friend? “Yes, he replied. “I suppose his mother is discouraged at having to stay longer here. “Why! Haven’t they left? burst from the Sick Man. “Oh, no, didn’t you know the Boy was ill, and the doctor has ordered him to be kept in bed a few days? “Why, no, answered the Sick Man. “What ails the little rascal? “Nothing serious, I guess. He just seems to be drowsy, and does not (52) care to talk or move. Blit his appetite has not left him, so I guess he will be all right in two or three days. On Friday the Sick Man strolled down the corridor, and meeting the doctor as he was leaving the Boy's room, inquired as to the Boy’s sickness. “It seems very strange to me,” said he thoughtfully. “That youngster has no fever and seems perfectly well except that he has no desire to get out of bed. lie said he wanted to see you. Will you come in with me?” At first the Sick Man hesitated, and then he said. “Of course, if the little chap wants me.” As the door opened, a little black-gowned figure, by the bed-side, rose, and was introduced to the Boy’s friend. The Boy sat up, his big eyes smiling fondly on the Sick Man. lie said, “Mother, be careful of his right hand. You’d better shake this one.” And he placed his mother’s hand in the big left one of the Sick Man. “Doctor, tomorrow is my birthday, and don’t you think I can go home then?” he asked suddenly. The doctor was struck with wonder at the sudden vigor with which the Boy spoke. The mother’s face lighted up hopefully and the doctor answering her questioning look with. “Well, you surely can!” The Boy stole this chance to give the Sick Man a knowing and confidential wink. The two men left the room. One puzzling over the strange case of the Boy’s—the other with a new ache in his maimed arm. lie ached to give that Boy a bear hug. That night the big watch under the Boy’s pillow ticked, “Don’t tell— don’t tell—don’t tell.” And the Bov never told. GLKK CLUB Glee Club Notes The Girls’ Glee club, did you say? Why, of course, I remember. How could I ever forget the jolly times we had? What songs we used to eing! And those programs—I learned all I know about composers there. What would we have done without Miss Burkhardt? She took so much interest in our club and worked so hard with us. Do you remember the party she gave us up in the dining room? I was looking at my score card the other day and it reminded me of the party. I never knew how to play “Speculation” before. Let’s see, when was that? Oh, I remember! It was the 21st of February, because I know they fumigated the building that, night. We gave that party for Miss Burkhardt on May Day, didn’t we? How surprised she was! We all enjoyed the program and refreshments!—and I enjoyed the dancing afterward, too. Do you remember how many times we appeared in public? I know there was the Thanksgiving party, the oratorical contest and then the program we gave in the last ten weeks in assembly. I’d like to hear how the Glee club is getting along now. With the start it had it surely ought to be worth a whole lot by this time. If ever a club was successful both in giving pleasure and obtaining results, ours was. Well, Mary Rooney was president, so what would you expect. Oh, I heard them every Wednesday. In my mind I hear them yet Calling through the halls and class-rooms, “Glee club practice! Don’t forget!” In Miss Burkhardt’s room we gathered, Sang and talked and listened, too. Snng our glees, each time improving, Talked of music, old and new. Sometimes, goodness, how we practiced! For our president would soy, “We’re to sing at the next party So we’ll practice hard today.” Yes, it was a happy Glee club, I can hear their voices still Singing soft, “Good-night Beloved,” Till my eyes begin to fill. Wish’t that we could get together For just one more little song. Wish’t I’d known how much I’d miss it When those happy days were gone! (5 5) FOOTBALL P'ootball looked like an uncertain proposition in the beginning, but with the election of Ernst Welke ns captain, and the generous consent of a former Northwestern football captain, in the person of Dr. D. II. August, to coach, things began to take on a business-like aspect. After some strenuous workouts the following players were chosen from the small list of candidates, to oppose Duluth in the opening game: Velke (center), Susens, May (guards), Smith, Daley (tackles), Peterson, Conley (ends), Underhill (quarter-back), McGowan, Hornbeck (halfbacks), McQueen (fullback). NORMAL, 8. D. C. H. S., 0. The football season was duly inaugurated by an 8 to 0 victory over the Duluth Central High School at Athletic Park, Duluth. It was a complete setback for the Duluth boys, as they anticipated an easy victory. The humbling of the cliff dwellers was accomplished by a brilliant run for a touchdown, by Peterson, the former High School crack end, which marked the completion of a beautifully executed forward pass, received from Underhill. Underhill added three more to this total by a goal from the field. NORMAL, 5. NORTHLAND ACADEMY, 6. Ashland, Yis., was the scene of the next encounter. Here the boys met a worthy focman in the personel of the Northland Academy football team. Although considerably outweighed, the Normal offered a stiff argument, as the score indicates. The Normal scored by means of a touchdown, while the “college” team chalked up their count by means of two field goals. NORMAL, 0. SUPERIOR HIGH SCHOOL, 0. The 1911 football battle between the Superior Normal and High School teams, will go down in athletic annals as one of the best ever fought between warriors of these institutions. For four quarters the two teams battled valiantly, with neither team scoring. The High School boys, led by “Coke” Holman, ably assisted by Ilanson, Clarke and Aubin, strove in vain to score on the enemy. The Normal team which appeared in this game was not the same as that which played in the previous games, Paul Ekem, a new man, playing his first game under Normal colors. (56) From the spectators’ point of view the frame was thrilling, the rooters being kept constantly on the look-out. The followers of both schools were given a great scare, for when near the end of the game, Conley receiving the ball, sped for the goal. A touchdown for the Normal now seemed certain, but just before he reached the goal-posts, he was thrown hard by Connell, the High School quarter, and the ball fell from his grasp. In a twinkling the ball was snapped up by Stanbury of the High, who started for the opposite goal, with the Normal boys in hot pursuit. It was the High School’s turn to he jubilant, but they were likewise rudely interrupted, for Ekern quickly overtook the player and smashed the rooters’ hopes. For the Normal, Conley did the most efficient work, especially on defense, while the High was upheld by that noted quartet of stars—Holman Hanson, Clarke and Aubin. SUPERIOR NORMAL, 3. RIVER FALLS NORMAL, 10. To wind up the season the team arranged two out-of-town games. River Falls was the first camp invaded, the opposition being furnished by by the Normal school of that place. Underhill was unable to accompany the squad, which necessitated a revision of the line-up. The team put up a strong fight but were unable to cross the opposition’s goal line. NORMAL, 3. NEW RICHMOND HIGH SCHOOL, 5. On the day following the River Falls battle the squad journeyed to New Richmond to encounter Willard Ryan’s High School youngsters. Here they found the representatives of this institution also unbeatable, but again managed to annex 3 points. BASKET-BALL By Jock. With football a matter of history, the scene of athletic action was shifted indoors, and basket-ball was now to play the leading role. The fin� l preliminary was to choose a captain, the choice falling to Carl Daley, ono of the veterans of last year’s team. The boys were fortunate in securing an efficient coach, Mr. Edward Conley volunteering his services in their behalf. Mr. Conley being well versed in the fine points of the sport and a close student of athletics for a number of years, was a desirable man to impart knowledge to his proteges and the success of the team can in a decided measure be attributed to his assistance. When preliminary work began the following were found in action: Daley, Suscns, Conley and Underhill of last year’s team, together with May and McGowan of the second team. Mungavin of Superior High School 1911 team and Hombeck from Willmar, Minn. McQueen, a veteran of former years, answered the call a short time later. NORMAL, 58. N. D. H. S, 5. The initial game was the contest between the Normal and the Nelson (58) Dewey High School teams and the orange and black boys romped away with an easy victory. All the candidates played in this game and gave a creditable account of themselves. STEVENS POINT NORMAL. SUPERIOR NORMAL. The followers ot the team were not given an opportunity to see the boys in action in their next game, the team going to Stevens Point to clash with the representatives of the Normal school there. The first game resulted in a victory for the Pointers, with Conley doing stellar work on the offense, with 'McQueen playing a great defensive game, holding the Stevens Point captain scoreless. The second encounter was a reversal of the first with tho Superior team carrying off the laurels. Conley again starred in this game, ably assisted by Capt. Daley. Susens won a hand from the spectators by sonic beautifully executed shots, which helped materially in the scoring. NORMAL, 25. D. C. H. S., 15. This being one of the important games on the schedule, a large crowd was present to see the Normal administer a beating to Duluth Central High School team. Underhill was again at the right forward position. This necessitated the displacing of May, who up to this time had been filling the position in an able manner, considering the fact that this was his first year. As a curtain raiser the Normal seconds also triumphed over the Central seconds. Score 21—11. NORMAL, 22. SHAMROCKS, 31. The strong Shamrock independent basket-ball team won its seventeenth game out of nineteen played by defeating the Normal school five 31 to 22. The game, which was played in the Normal gymnasium, was witnessed by a large crowd of rooters for both teams. The Shamrock team comprises old High School stars and when playing against the Normal team it is natural for them to make roughness a feature. The Normal showing was good considering the fact that the “harps” have defeated crack Minneapolis teams and possess an enviable record. McQueen, Conley and Underhill starred for the losers, while Welter, R. Bradley and W. Bradley of the winners played their positions with some excellent maneuvers, R. Bradley caging six baskets in this game. The second team added another victory to its string by defeating the Great Northern A. C. team. Score 34—18. NORMAL, 22. D. C. H. S., 33. Revenge is sweet! Carrying this motto, the Duluth Central High School retrieved their defeat at the hands of the Normal earlier in the season by administering a 33 to 22 beating to McCaskill’s teachers, at Duluth. The Duluthians showed speedy team work, while the locals appeared unable to get. together and had considerable difficulty in locating the baskets. The Normal opened the game with a burst of speed, but this was of short duration, the first half ending 21 to 10 in favor of the Centrals. Play was snappy in the second half, with Normal scoring 12 points to 6 for Centrals. During this period Susens received an injury which neces- (G0) sitated his retirement from the game. Iiis position was filled by Mung vin. Susens up to the time of this misfortune was playing brilliantly and he with Conley were the brilliant performers for the Normal, Susens caging 4 baskets, with Conley high man with 5. Elder, Osman and Harris did the heavy work for the victors. The members of the football and basket-ball teams, likewise all followers of these sports in the school, wish to thank Dr. D. II. August and Professor E. M. Conley, coaches of the football and basket-ball teams, respectively, for their untiring efforts in behalf of these teams, and the generous assistance which these gentlemen rendered is greatly appreciated. To Prof. A. D. S. (lillett and Croft Toohy a mark of appreciation is also tendered for their successful handling of the managerial reins, which is an important factor in the success of athletic teams. (Gl) Girls’ Athletics The girls met and organized an Athletic Association. Ted Davidson was elected president ; May Free, vice-president; Amanda Russfeldt, secretary and treasurer.

Wc wish that all our Alumnae could come back and be with us at the .Alumni banquet At any rate we shall expect those who cannot come to ,. learn our chosen song, yell and motto on the pages of the Gitche, as well ms if they were here to help ns sing and say them. A DKKAM OK TUB PAST. I. Come, draw up, let ns talk of old times, 1Who cares tor the hour and the music sublime? Let them all fade away and be lost on the stream, Let us go back to school—why it seems like a dream: -•Just one year ago wc were all gathered there. Some of us Seniors and loaded with care. Do you remember the “Regents’’?—Gee, they were hard. That Algebra, sure was no drawing card. With “orits.” “plana” and exams” we were well nigh played f- . ' out. II. Don’t you know how the Faculty sometimes would doubt If we'd ever get thru’: but we made it at. last. All girls—and one glorious class. Oh. yes, wc had good times galore: Of course, 1 remember that little old store Down on the corner of Grand, where we always bought “eats,’ Don’t it make you right hungry just to think of those sweets. , III. Say, do you remember that pan of marshmallow fudge. That was carried away by the spirits, I judge— It makes me laugh now, when I think of the stuff And Ada and Ann did put up such a bluff. Oh, yes, I remember the night of the ball That was given to the hoys by the girls at the Hall. And don’t you recall, ’twas some later. I guess That the boys got mixed up in some kind of a mess Over sugar and sand, well at least they confessed. And one night there was company. I think ’twas in March— At any rate ’twas the time of that fuss over starch, And the next day was Sunday—dear. dear, how time flics. Well—the lecture we got was followed by sighs. IV. There is one little thing that I can’t quite forget. Twas a big Imx of cake and do you know I dare bet, That they never found out just who took it yet. Kh, what did you sav? Mood times mixed with others? Oh, my dears—wc’ll ne’er have such another. Yes, the troubles wc caused would make any one weary, Xo wonder each girl shouts aloud, “Hurrah for Miss Geary. (07) V. She was mother and father and doctor and nurse— Companion and friend and our troubles dispersed, When we saw her a nodding and smiling at all, Yes, indeed, she was the life of the Hall. Can’t you just sec the school, with rooms wide and spacious, And ail of the Faculty standing round so gracious. VI. There’s Proxy McCaskill a heading the line With a handshake and welcome you just can’t decline, lie was such a jollier—do you remember the talks We got from the platform—the one on the locks, Of the doors up on third; when he gave special attention To the boys who were deserving of mention. For the work done in cook; at the time ’twas a question Just who headed the list; but you can bet Proxy found out, And he made it quite clear what he was about. VII. I)o you know it seems just last week That we sat in Psychology too scared to speak? For experiences with details were then hard to use And when Mr. Royce called we were sure to refuse. VIII. Can’t you see Mr. Ilcmbdt with a smile on his face, Yes, there he is—just stepping in place; I really believe there’s a treat for us now— Come, come, I know you’ll all vow That he’s the best ever—don’t you wish you could hear Some of the things he’s been giving this year? IX. Well, well, how time flies on its way And brings to us all things happy and gay! There’s sadness and sorrow stirred in too, for good measure; Hut after all they’re the things that we treasure. And tho’ we’ve left school days and gone on our way, There’s many a lesson to be learned every day. But no matter how lonely and tired we may be We give many a cheer for Superior you see, And the “Brccky Co-Ex.” of the time gone past Is a chapter in life that will always last. Alumna ’ll.

As I neared the building I was surprised to see a large, heavy-set man standing a few yards ahead of me. At fiist it occurred to me that the man was John, our janitor, but to my dismay I soon discovered that it was not. However, there was only one thing for me to do. pass him. and get into the Hall as quickly as possible. In so doing 1 had a good opportunity to study his appearance. I reached the porch and considered myself safe, grasped the door-knob, but the door was locked. It was a very short time before one of the girls came to let me in but it seemed like an eternity. The door was never locked at this time in the evening, hut owing to the fact that there were only two people in the house, it had been deemed wise to have it so. Once safe inside the house. I dismissed my thoughts of the man and laughed at my fears. Two of the girls, who had gone to church, were expected home at any minute, and we wondered if they would be as much afraid as I had been. Thinking that I heard the girls’ steps on the porch, I hastened to the door to let them in—imagine my surprise when I beheld that man in the vestibule trying his level best to get in. I hurried back into the office, closed the doors, and informed the others of his intentions. We telephoned to one of our nearest neighbors, none other than Profcsssr Whealdon and asked him to come to our assistance at once. In the meantime the man was rattling the door knob vigorously. In less time than it would take to tell about it Professor Whealdon came over to calm our fears, and tried to persuade the man to leave. His efforts were of no avail, the man insisted upon staying. The police were called and in a short time they were up to the Ilall with their automobile patrol. The man must have been fond of riding in automobiles because he did not hesitate to go with the police when they asked him. We saw no more of him and we were not troubled further by any one else. Crownhart Ilall is a mighty fine place. Presided o’er by our Lady Cl race; But we’ve no patience with the male, Who’d take it for the county jail. —M. M. M. (7G) Latin Notes The day following the Latin picnic was music day. Miss Burkhart wondered why the hoys were singing so lustily. But it all came out when Croft started the chorus—“I was seeing Body home ’ etc. Student (translating): “Caesar, compared with Hannibal, was more selfish and less restrained by a patriotic sense of duty.” Teacher: “Yes, Caesar had a great deal of Gaul.” Have you heard of the vanity of the fairer sex? Famae ne credite.socii Latini. The following incident suffices in discrediting the false rumor. A few days after the D. C. II. S.—S. N. S. game, one of our dashing young basket-ball enthusiasts, also a great lover of Virgil, was seen, during class with mirror in hand, ruefully surveying his countenance which had received serious injury during aforesaid game. We neglected to state that the victim of the accident has a countenance of classic type, similar to that of Apollo Belvidere and for this reason is very popular among the young ladies of the school. Alarmed at the thought that he may consider his chances lost because of this disfigurement, we hasten to assure him that he need have no doubts on that score. What surprises us is that lie, a diligent student, a second Vergil, should be caught in the act of holding a beauty soliloguy, or shall wc call it day-dreaming or stellar-gazing? Latin Conundrums 1. What are men when they are tired?—Viri. 2. How many make a couple?—Tu. 3. What shall we do with Croft and--at Latin picnics?—Part em. 4. Who is the speaker of our house?—Anna. 5. What is the trust investigation f—efec. G. What beverage has a reason for being made?—Post urn. 7. What is a ladies’ dormitory?—Aplacc where”no men” are allowed. 8. An old maid’s favorite drink?—Te. 9. Whom docs Miss Spooner like best?—Just us. Student: Can I go home? Teacher: Se me. What does Sue say to her small brother when Dinny comes to call on her?—Haec. The still night fell, and on the weary hearts on earth Sweet slumber crept. The forest and the wild waves slept. While in the middle of their course, the stars walked forth alone. The fields were hushed, and all the flocks and bright winged gulls That kept the liquid length of lakes, And haunted the wild and ragged brakes felt, the silence of the night. —Translation from Aencid IV. Alumna, ’ll. (77) s KHOIA'HK All ...UIHO.VO.) l'IO. ONLY A NORMAL GIRL. She lived in the interior. Somewhere behind Superior. For you know she was a little High School Grad. She thought she’d go to college, To gain a lot of knowledge, So she went to the Telegram for an ‘‘Ad.” There was a man, no rascal 11 is name,—it was McCaskill, Attention to this “Ad.” he then did pay. He wrote this maid a letter. Faith! who could write it better? And to her, lie did send it, the next day. Rut when this note did reach her, She thought it was a peach, sure, And quickly sat herself down to reply. She took her pen and ink, And go to work to think, Rut felt herself become a little shy. Iler thinking power left her, She thought she was bereft, sure, Of how an answer, she may chance to start. And tho’ she tried her best, She got it all so messed. She thought she had a weakness in her heart. Next thing she had to do, The same as me and you, Was to find a place to hang her hat. She then wrote to Miss Geary, And felt a little scary. When the Dormitory, she landed at. She then enrolled in the Normal, Thought it not the least dornial, Rut rather fancied her new occupation. Hard work then came upon her, She finished it with honor, And now she’s looking for a situation. A SONG OF THE SUDS. Sing a song of washing clay, A laundry full of girls— Each and every laundry-hag To the wash is hurled. And when the bags are opened, Oh! then the work begins, The maidens for the tubs all rush, And whoever hurries wins. Daisy’s there to start the rush, Grace with might and main, Kosella then comes next in line To join the merry chain. Cora Scott and Helen, too, Come in each for her turn; The Whelan girls arc next on deck The privilege- for to earn. The suds they rise, and the starch it- flics, To many a merry air, While the girls they talk, and the girls they work And the clothes go everywhere. Ina and Miss Morrison Try to beat Mae Free; Nobody works on washing-day Like the Dormitory girls, you see. Sing a song of washing-day Full of fun and folly, Oh! what joy some girls do have, For ironing is so jolly. The dresses shine like silver, The ironing-boards arc full; Don’t shirk your work, you’ll soon find out That ironing isn’t dull.

Hustle him, soon as he’s able to walk, Into a grammar school; cram him with talk. Fill his poor head full of figures and facts. Keep on a-jamming them in till it cracks. Once boys grew up at a rational rate, Now we develop a man while you wait. Rush him through college, compel him to grab Of every known subject a dip and a dab. Get him in business, and after the cash, All by the time he can grow a mustache. Let him forget he was ever a boy. Make gold his god and its jingle his joy.
