Tomorrow's New Teachers are today's amateurs. The seventeen girls enrolled in the Normal Training Club have been striving to learn what psychology can be used most effectively on their prospec- tive students.

The fundamentals of music were studied on certain nights from four to five with the help of Miss Cheney from the School for the Blind. The club holds regular meetings once a month. An occasional social gathering offers a change from serious thinking. Officers for the past year were Margaret Lindeman, president: Charlotte Mitchell, vice-president: Dorothy Schlotfelt, secretary: Glenith Hurst, treasurer.
