nuniher of The .liiiiilc! appeared in February, i8qj. Prof. F. H. Green heiiii;- the first e liti r-in-cliief. Altlmn -Ii many others lia e since been at the hehn, Prof. Green still keejis his interest in it and oversig ' lit of it. The first special organized line of Christian work, apart from the prayet meetings hich were regularly iield, was in the department of temperance work. Mrs. A. I ' . Reid and Mrs. Richard Darlington started a branch of ' (Mnan ' s Chris- tian Temperance L ' nion, in 1886, but in 1888 our society became a part of the thiistian I emperance League, because of the desire to remain non-partisan. The organization still exists, with Mrs. Geo. Morris Philips as its president, though in the multiplicity of other societies, it is not so prominent as of old. The ' oung Men ' s Christian Association was begun on October 16, 1890, and the ' oung Women ' s Christian . ssociation on Sejjtember 24, i8yi. Prof. Green was the first president of the former, and still holds that office. Miss Eloise Ma hem was the first i)resident of the latter; she was succeeded by Miss Mary A. Cummings: then came Miss Sara S. Kirk, whom so many of us still reniemlier with lo e and appreciation; and at the present time Mrs. ¥. H. Starkey most sys- tematically and efficiently carries on tlii- great work. The Faculty of the scIkjuI has always stood for the highest scholarship, and it is to them, with the l rincipal at their head, that the success of the school is due. Each ear adds to their efficiency, and m;in - of them have a reputation as educa- tors that is not confined to the limits of our own State. During the summer acation of 1877- 1878, a summer school, one of the first of its kind in the country, was held under the auspices of the Normal School, and although it seemed successful and was |uite well attended, it was discontin- ueil. Xow, however, after the lapse of all these years, we again have a summer school, and as several members of the b ' aculty are the jjrime mo -ers of the scheme, it will, no (Iciubt, be successful and lasting this time. This adds one more to the manv channels of infiuence which makes the school so effective and so useful. Thus through the changes and chances of the years, has the school advanced. Contrast the one hundred of its first enrollment with the nine hundred of the present ine, and ten members of the first class graduated with the twd hundred and twenty of the last, and these, with other evidences of strength, nuist make us pripud to be members of the i)est Normal School in Pennsylvania.
