I £ x1i %hvi m€: M 7 THE SERPENTINE VOLUME XV -Published b THE SENIOR CLASS West Chester State Normal School west chester, penna. m CLAUDE EDWARD HAUSKNECHT THE TASK of getting started in America was scarcely completed by the early English-speaking settlers when there came to our shores, as early as the middle of the eighteenth century, a large number of people from southern Germany. Many of them settled in Pennsylvania, locating in the counties north and west of the English settlers who had come earlier. These sturdy south Germans brought with them their language, their religion, their customs, their food, but, most of all, their frugality, thrift, and industry. Because of their sterling qualities, they have left an indelible impression on our American life. From such sturdy German ancestry the subject of this sketch is descended. Claude Edward Hausknecht, familiarly known on the campus as Uncle Ned, was born in Hazleton, Pa., the son of Edward Hausknecht and Rose Elizabeth Klmger. Here he grew to young manhood and completed his elementary and high ' school education. His parents, cognizant of the value of honest toil well done, did not fail to seize every reasonable op- portunity to have the lad advantageously employed. Consequently, he spent his summers and vacation periods in such employment as boys of his city might secure. His parents were appreciative of the value of higher education, and upon the completion of the high-school course, Uncle Ned began work at the Bloomsburg State Normal School where he graduated m 1900. His first year of teaching experience was secured in a one- room rural school where he was obliged to teach all of the eight grades. This year of teaching was followed by continuous service in the schools of Hazleton until the director- ship of music in the West Chester State Normal School called in 1921. A wide range of experience was gathered in Hazleton each part of which prepared for the task which was ahead. A period of teaching in the grades was followed by the pnncipal- ship of a lower grade school and later the principalship of a grammar school. In this later capacity he served as the special teacher of music m the building of which he was principal. Early in his life, our friend showed talent for music, and his mother was wise enough to insist upon the practice periods on the piano. A few years after his teaching career began, Uncle Ned turned his serious attention to public school music, and in 1907 attended the session of the Institute of Musical Art in New York City. The summers of 191 1 and 1912 were spent at Cornell University, where he graduated in the Music Supervisors Course under the direction of Dr. Hollis Dann. The same year he was chosen as the special teacher of music in Hazleton, in connection with his grammar school principal- ship. The year 191 5 again saw him at Cornell where he did post-graduate work in music. In 1918, the late D. A. Harmon, then Superintendent of Schools in Hazleton, chose Mr. Hausknecht as the Supervisor of Music for the city schools. Three years of successful supervision followed, when Dr. Smith was looking for a man to head the Music Depart- ment m thi s school. With little reluctance Dr. Smith chose Uncle Ned, and he began his Normal School teaching at West Chester in September, 1921. Mr. Hausknecht has served for three summers on the faculty of the Music Summer Session which was conducted at Cornell, later at West Chester, and now at New York University. He has done considerable work in institutes and often delights audiences in piano recitals. He is a regular attendant at the opera and has many friends among the famous musicial artists. He finds constant musical contact with his well-chosen victrola records and his Steinway grand piano. The dedication of the 1926 Serpentine attests the esteem in which the students hold him. The many friendships he has formed attest the charm of his human qualities. His early training is manifested in the close allegiance he has for his church, and his appreciation of his family is evidenced in his many references in conversation to father, mother, brother, sister, and little niece. By honoring this man, the Class of 1926 not only recognizes service well rendered but expresses the hope that he may be spared for many years of usefulness. loHN A.

To answer various inquiries which have been made recently, it seems advisable to restate, at this time, some facts which have already been published, as well as to give some additional ones. Dr. George Morns Philips died March ii, lyio. At the business meeting of the Alumni Association, which was held following his death, a committee was appointed to consider ways and means of raising funds for a suitable memorial to be established as a tribute to him and his work. This committee has been functioning tor five years, during the first two of which funds came to it rather slowly. Three years ago, our present Business Manager, John R. Hollinger, was elected President of the Alumni Association, after which time a new, vigorous, and far-reaching campaign was inaugurated, with the result that the fund now collected for this enterprise is approaching $100,000. On Commencement Day at the school last year, guests were invited to join in the exercises of officially breaking ground for the new building. Addresses were delivered by Colonel A. M. Holding, President of the Board of Trustees, Mrs. Mary Morris Hamilton, also a member of the Board of Trustees, and Dr. Andrew Thomas Smith. The honor of turning the first spadeful of dirt in connection with the excavations was voted by the committee in charge to Mr. John R. Hollinger. One of the interested spectators on this occasion was Mrs. E. Anna Large Thorne, a member of the class of 1874, the first class which graduated from this institution. From the day of breaking ground to the present time, work on the project has progressed satisfactorily. The new building is situated on the campus near the intersection of High Street and Normal Avenue, the main auditorium extending along Normal Avenue. The stonework is fairly well completed and presents a fine appearance, the face stone being the warm gray Fo.xcroft stone of varying tints, which is especially suited for the type of building being erected, which is collegiate Gothic style, such as may be seen at Princeton and Bryn Mawr, and which is generally seen in England. The trimmings are Indiana limestone, and the roofing — Mohawk asbestos shingles of various colors — will, it is thought, greatly enhance the beauty of the building. The auditorium will provide seating capacity for 1,978 persons, there hemg 1,43,8 seats on the first floor, and 540 on the balcony. The first floor of the building extending along High Street will be used, in the mam, as administrative offices. The Philips Memorial Library will be placed on the second floor. Perhaps it is not generally known that this is one of the largest privately autographed collections of books in the country and is valued at more than $jo,ooo. It goes without saying that a great building of the kind here being erected, and which is to combine all of the features necessary for auditorium and administrative purposes will be equipped with every modern convenience which will make for the accommodation and comfort of its patrons, and of those who will use it generally. The building will be not only a model of fine architecture, but, thanks to the attention given to every detail by the architect, Mr. Walter Price, and the general contractor, Mr. Victor Gondos, it is being so substantially constructed that it should continue to be of service for several generations. When completed, the Philips Memorial will serve, not only as a monument to the great work of the one in whose memory it is being erected, and who served this institution for more than forty years, but it will provide the community, as well, with a much-needed auditorium for such functions as draw great crowds here, and for which our present ac- commodations are entirely inadequate. Also, to those who are aware of the persistent and optimistic campaign which has been carried on to collect a fund ot $100,000 for this worthy purpose, the Memorial will be a reminder of the unselfish efforts of the President of the Alumni Association during three successive years of this campaign. It is fitting that a Memorial to one that never faltered shall be made a reality so soon, and a reality so grand, because the leading spirit back of it never faltered. Elizabeth L. Brinton Dear Friends of the Graduating Class: As you go out to active labors in the field you have selected as your life-work, there is one foundation truth that I should like to have you carry with you and incor- porate in your lives. Yours is a noble profession, but the real glory in it is to be secured not by enabling learners to comprehend more truth and to accumulate more information, valuable as both of these accomplishments are, but rather in bringing the personality of the child into living relationship with another worth-while personality — ni making him realize that he is a member of a universal spiritual brotherhood. Your noble life lived in the child ' s presence will teach more effectively than any words you can utter; and the appreciation of this great truth should be a sufficient in- centive for you to live your highest and best.

She likes to help down-hearted people to forget their troubles. Her hobbies are kindergarten, youngsters, reading Garwood ' s hooks, and, last but not least, eating. Her favorite expression is, Oh! Someone just got a box! Let ' s go see what ' s in it! Her eyes beam at the sight of cake. May you always succeed in what you do, Dot. HAROLD ANDREWS Andy Moore Group IV CoUegeviUe, Pa. Andy is one of our foremost cartoonists. His previous ex- perience as a cartoonist on a daily paper, together with his ability in art acquired since enrolling with us, will be assets of moment when he seeks a position. From all accounts the call of the West may soon be responsible for him pursuing his ambition in distant fields. Best wishes, Andy. Affected Young Ladies. Imaginary Invalid. HILDEGARDE A. ANDERSON Gflrdic Aryan Music Williamsport, Pa. Stephen Collins Foster (Charles) is the favorite composer of our Gardie — why? Ask Her. She loves to tell about his inspiring works. Dancing and drawing are her pet hobbies which bring out her artistic temperament — naturally, being a Music Sup. Well, nuff sed. We just know she ' s going to make a big success in later life, be it teaching or chaperoning (?) cabin parties up in God ' s Country. ERROLL PAYNE ANDERSON Group III Wilmington, Del. ErroU ' s line is Mathematics, but he has other interests in quite another line — Music. Quiet, dependable, and earnest rptly describe our friend from Delaware. Erroll is always willing to help someone from his vast store oi knowledge, and has proven to his classmates and teachers the old saying Good goods come in small packages. We wish you success and happiness throughout your teaching career. Educational Club. HELEN M. ANDERSON Aryan Group II Dallas, Pa. Our Helen appears very quiet but to those who really know her she is as lively as anyone. She has an acute sense of humor, .shown vividly by the sparkle of her dark brown eyes. If there are any serious problems to be solved, Helen may be depended upon to give satisfaction. Helen ' s friendship, when gained, is a thing to be valued. She is a staunch friend through thick and thin. M THOMAS F. ALEXANDER Tommie Aryan West Chester, Pa. Music Supervisor He who hath a love for music and good books m his soul. Is a companion unto himself. Tom IS a genuine lover of art, a fair critic, and well versed in many lines. His keen wit, added to his unusual personality, wi win him many friends wherever he goes. Does Tom like to argue — well! At least once in every class. Here ' s to you, Tom. and much success. Vee Aryan Group II VERA AMOROSO Philadelphia, Pa. The one she wants, she cannot get. But if she waits, she ' ll get him yet. I wonder who he is. She used to go home every week-end, but now spends some here at Normal. Who is the attraction, anyway ' Perhaps a certain young man in Wayne Hall will solve the problem. How can he miss her, with her beautiful big brown eyes and that irresistible smile? Moore Group SAMUEL LEONARD ARBUCKLE Coatesville, Pa. Still waters run deep. Leonard has come to us with a world of experience which he acquired during his three years of teaching the young blood of the nation. He has come back to complete his course, but who knows but that we may some day have him back to take the Music Supervisor course. ESTHER AREGOOD Ezz Aryan Group I Pinedale, Pa. Lovable, preserving, fun-provoking — such is our E:;. Her sweet disposition and pleasing personality have won tor her many friends. She extends a sympathetic and helpful hand to everyone. What, indeed, would we do without her! E:: is interested in sports, but her chief hobby is dancing. At present her favorite song is I ' m Knee Deep in Daisies and Head over Heels in Love. Aryan Group I DOROTHY M. ASH East Dowingtown, Pa Dotty, with her charming smile and genial way has found a place in the hearts of all those who have come in close contact with her. She is one of the spirited representatives from Downingtown High School. Her pleasing personality will win her way into the hearts of the little tots she plans to teach. May she have the best of success in her future, teaching and likewise. Junior and Senior Glee Club. REBECCA REYNOLDS ALLEN Sea Girt, N. I. Aryan Group I Have you ever met Rebecca? She came to us, as a Senior, from Montclair Normal, New Jersey. It took Becca a while to get acquainted with this school and its ways, but I don ' t think she ' s sorry that she joined our ranks. Since her arrival she has joined the Aryan Society and has been active on the tennis-courts. She IS a girl you should know. Through sunshine and rain. She ' s always the same. GRACE B. ARMSTRONG ■ ' Grdanus Aryan Group II Olyphant, Pa. Sometimes we look about for Grace, but all in vain, for is it not Sunday evening ' Of course, Grace is well occupied with that extra special letter. We all realue how earnest Grace is now in becoming a teacher, but we have our doubts as to whether this profession will be hers for a long time. Aryan MARGUERITE V. ALFONSO Philadelphia, Pa. Marguerite was a rather quiet lass when she came to us. She has proven her real worth about the school in that she has taken an active part in many ot the affairs about the school. We wish her all possible success and happiness in her every endeavor. ESTHER MAE AUMILLER Pnii(ie Aryan Group 111 Harnsburg, Pa. I want to he naughty and yet be nice. Pinkie ' s just the type of girl we all like. It is strange to relate that she liked her practice teaching in Coatesville a lot more than in West Chester. M aybe it ' s because nicer people live there. The letter W and Geography vie with each other for first place in Esther ' s heart. Which w ill win ' Fire Captain; Educational Club; Y. W. C. A.- Discussion Group Leader. CHARLOTTE ABERNATHY Abhy Aryan He.-iLTH Ed. Catasauqua, Pa. Is there one of our visualizations of our Normal School days wherein Ahby does not somewhere lurk ' She has made herself preeminent in all school activities and has made a distinct name tor herself in sports, especially in basketball. Most of us know she made more field-goals than anyone else during the year of ' 24. Again, we find her in the lime-light! ' jj ' s record for basketball throw was broken by none other than Abby. Success to one of 26 ' s most popular students! Basketball; Hockey; Track; Volley Ball; President and Vice-President Student Council; Fire Brigade; Musical Comedy Club. MAYME BALLOG Maymie Aryan Group I Throop, Pa. None but herself can be her parallel. We all have a place in our hearts tor Mayme; she is true blue. The old proverb, You can never tell what lies under still water. applies to Mayme, for she has one of the quietest and sweetest dispositions and only those who know her well can find those famous treasures hidden in her character. We certainly are ' proud of Mayme. Oh, yes, she hails from the coal regions. JOHN C. BRACKEN South Fork, Pa. OLIVE M. BILLINGS ■■Bwwme Aryan Grolp IV Dalton, Pa. Gee. darn that exclamation tells us Brownie is in the build- ing again. We often wonder what she is talking about — lesson plans, teaching, or That Certain Party. Brownie is e% ' er ready to lend a helping hand to anyone who seeks her aid. Where on this earth can you find so much brains in one little head! But then she s from Dalton. She was first in everything, especially her school work and suggesting good times. Musical Comedy Club; Drama Club, Junior Mantle Orator; Fire Lieutenant. CHARLES L. BROWN Brou ' me Aryan Group 111 Coatesville, Pa. Charlie is another of those Coatesville people that we have always thought so much of. He is well known by his ability to be friendly without being familiar. He is also willing to help but has a keen perception of when his rights are being imposed upon. A good student and a good friend. Always a man ' s man, even to the extent of being a confirmed bachelor during his time here, although recently he has started to slip. Stick to it. Kid. we admire your spirit. Vice-President Sophomore Class; President Aryan Society; Chairman 26 Jewelry Committee; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Normal Band; Editor-in-Chief Serpentine. EDITH BENNER Ede Group II Coatesville, Pa. Edith is a listener-in but she has her own opinions and can express them forcefully if necessary. She has the ability of making friends wherever she goes and of keeping them. She ' s a mighty fine friend herself and we cannot keep a diamond off her finger. She always does a thing quickly and efficiently, even though her hobby is Art. LOIS BARTMAN RiegelsviUe, Pa. Lois came to us in her Senior year, having attended Summer School and having taught in the RiegelsviUe Public Schools. Shortly after the fall semester began, Lois was elected president of the New Voters ' Club. She. with two other girls, represented W. C. S. N. S. at the convention held at Erie, Pa. Lois is also a member of the Herodotus and the Educational Clubs. She is a sincere friend and classmate and can always he depended on in work or in play. Lois is a dandy girl and we wish her great success in her schoolwork. Dottie Music Supfrvisor DOROTHY BEAR Allentown, Pa. Always laughing, never sad; Just girls like this make men go mad. This verse means just what it says — all men. But don ' t worry, Johnny, all men don ' t bother Dottie now. Just One man! Dottie has contributed greatly to the success of the Aryan plays, and her appearances in concerts have alwavs been hailed with acclaim. Ever see Dottie dance ' She just floats over the Ooor. Dottie will undoubtedly make a successful Supervisor but, not for long. The Hottentot ; Kempy ; Orchestra. VIOLET L. BALLARD Aryan Group I Philadelphia, Pa. This quiet young lady came to us a few years ago, with a rather pleasant smile and an abundance of good cheer. We have come to love her with our very hearts. We wish her success in her new enterprise and any she may attempt in the future. Aryan Group I PEARL M. BARNEY Pond Hill. Pa. She has two eyes, so soft and brown — take care! She gives a side glance and then looks down — beware! It ' s often been said that many famous people come from small places, and here we have the direct proof. Perle surely is a prodigy when it comes to playing the piano. However, this is not her only achievement for she is highly efficient as a poetess, dancer, and entertainer. She expresses her desire to be a school teacher but we who know of her manv admirers have our doubts. Y. W. C. A.; Educational Club; Track Meet. AMANDA C. BLESSING Manda Moore Groi: Waynesboro, Pa. As her name signifies, West Chester was truly blessed when Manda came to stay. She is in every sense of the word A Blessing. Manda is a sincere friend, full of fun, with a broad smile and a giggle for everyone. Better late than never. She always caught the car for teaching even though the arrangement of her crowning glory delayed her at times. We hear her say, Well, I hope. Well, we hope she will find success and happiness in life. Y. W. C. A. Committee. THOMAS J. BRENNAN Tom Cutie Plug Moore Jessup, Pa. Group HI Having tired of the life in Arizona, Tom decided to be a teacher rather than a gold-miner. His attentions naturally turned to West Chester for a number of reasons. Tom ' s sense of humor is his greatest asset. His popularity with the young ladies has not been equaled because his drawing-card is his Cuteness. This, though, has always been in spare time. His other interests have been scholastic. ELIZABETH BERNSTEIN Bcrme Aryan Group III Philadelphia, Pa. One of the most outstanding of the Normal Lights is Bernie. Everyone who comes in contact with her admires her for her charm- ing personality, eloquence, scholarship, and leadership. (At last, she can swim!) Her favorite expression is, He ' s a fine chap ; as for ours. Bernie ' s a fine girl! Hockey; Tennis; Track; Junior Glee Club; Debate; Green Stone Staff; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet; Treasurer Liberal Club; Herodotus Club; Educational Club; Office. IDA E. BRANKER Sis Moore Group I Scranton, Pa. To know her is to love her. The gods smiled upon W. C. S. N. S. in September, 1924, and deposited in it a fair Scrantonian, called Sis. She takes every- thing with a smile. Never has she been known, during her stay with us, to forget that a smile is the thing that goes the farthest. And popular! Nothing but. May Dame Fortune follow you through your future life and bring you success in your chosen profession, Sis. Student Councilor. }eanie Aryan Group JEAN KENNEDY BELL Palmerton, Pa. A blue-eyed girl, with a dimpled chin. Is a darn sure sign, there ' s Scotch within. Some people may think Jeanie quiet, but that shows how little they know her. She is our witty member, and we are sure old 115 would seem like a morgue without her. Jeanie ' s one hobby is tuna fish. In reply to this she would say, Fish makes brains. We do not think that Jeanie needs any more of these. Success to you always. JAMES W. BAILEY West Chester, Pa. ALMA BAYER Am Aryan Group II Loysburg, Pa. Here is a good jolly sport, who has just joined our ranks this year. Am has had some teaching experience, so she knows what waits for all of us. She has made many friends here at Normal through her pleasant disposition. Next to her chosen profession of teaching, she is very fond of electrical engineering. Is there a reason Well, I just guess. Here ' s to success. ALICE BENDER Chestnut Hill, Pa. Aryan Group II Seldom ' can ' t, seldom ' don ' t ' Ne% er ' shan ' t, never ' won ' t. ' Alice came to us from Ambler High School. Her many friends can testify to her good-nature and her classmates and teachers to her good work. Kind, loyal, and faithful are adjectives you use to describe Alice. She is full of fun and always ready for a good time. As a teacher, she ' ll be one of the best, and she has all our wishes lor success. FRANK BENNETT Aryan Health Education Kennett Square, Pa. Good sportsmanship would be Benny ' s motto if he ' d take time to think of one. This, with his cheerful smile and blue Ford, make an unbeatable combination, just Benny. We know he will take his sunny disposition and fair-mindedness with him where- ever he goes, but we can ' t help wishing they could always remain to brighten our lives. Football; Basketball; Track. DOROTHY S. BENNETT Benme Dot Aryan Group I Pottsville. Pa. Where there is a will there is a way. There is no task too difficult tor Dot. She is a very conscien- tious girl at times, who has made many friends here at the Normal. Next to the people of Pottsville, she loves those of Pottstown best. Next year, no doubt, she will be monarch in her own little domain, the schoolroom. Here ' s to success wherever she may be. MARIE BREAKLEY Group II West Chester, Pa. The girl of courage is the one who wins. This quotation aptly applies to Mane because in everything she undertakes she is bound to come out successful, especially in sports. The Class of ' 26 wishes her the best of luck in all her future undertakings. FLORENCE R. BRENNAN Fio Moore Group II Minersville, Pa. When there ' s mischief brewing ' neath fair blue skies, You ' ll find it lurking in this maid ' s eyes. This little miss hails from the Emerald Isle. Her Erin wit and gift o gab have won for her many friends. HANNAH B. BENNETT Group IV Wycombe, Pa. Two outstanding points about Hannah are industry and good nature. She can work hard all day long and smile through every minute. Her home is near where the Indian walk began, and she began walking in early life and has continued ever since. She holds a diploma from the High School of Newtown and spent a busy summer at a girls ' big camp along the Delaware River. She is a Baptist, Altruist, and an Optimist. At handicraft she is especially adept and can make beautiful posters and most alluring toy furniture. ALTA J. BAILY West Chester, Pa. Aryan Group II Our Alta isn ' t very big, but the saying is that good goods comes in small packages. When we grow old, won ' t it be fun to remember the time she caught her coat-sleeve in the window and four young gentlemen quickly rushed to her assistance? Alta is very lond of children and for this reason we feel sure of her success in her career. CECILIA ZOE BAKER Cece Arvan Group I Woodland. Pa. Cece is a bright little girl from Woodland. Her red hair tells us a story. One winter she visited in York. Shortly afterward a Washington and Jefferson pennant adorned her wall. She took life too seriously when she arrived at West Chester m 1924, but she has overcome this because of her friends that she made since. We wish her contentment in whatever the stars hold for her. Baher Aryan Group I HELEN M. BAKER Salem, N. J. Twelve o ' clock at noon, 12 o ' clock at night — Helen Baker ' s always there having her delight. Up and down the hall she goes. Fourth Floor Annex always knows. What! Don ' t you know Helen? Why she is the live- wire of the hall. We need never be afraid of missing our breakfast as Helen ' s alarm clock always goes off, not saying what time. Here ' s wishine you success as future librarian. Social Welfare Club; Y. W. C. A.; Hostess Club; New Jersey Club. HAROLD K. BRUMBAUGH ■■Brummie Moore Group IV Steelton, Pa. Brummie, as he is called, came to us in the fall of ' 24. We know him as a most loyal son of Steelton. We who know him well can never forpet his studiousness and keen interest in all his work. But don ' t be alarmed, Brummie ' s interests are many, and he, also, finds time to consider the fairer sex. Best o ' luck teaching schools, Brummie. H. H. S. A.; Track; Normal Band; Moore President. GLADYS M. BRITTAIN Bethlehem, Pa. Aryan Group IV ' The thing I like to do the best. Is to )ust sit down and read and rest. Gladys is one of the girls whose tresses are still unshorn. Ask her the reason why and she w ' ll say. Pans decrees long hair. Gladys impresses one as beinsj sedate and silent, hut not when you know her. Her favorite saying is 1 wish I had a love-nest We wonder what she means. Best wishes for your future success, Gladys. Y. W. C. A.; Educational Club. ALBERTA BAER Coate viUe, Pa. ELIZABETH C. BURGESSER ' Bettv Aryan Group I York, Pa. Her many friends have learned to love Betty because of her sunny disposition, reflected by two sparkling eyes, although we know that she is not long to grace a schoolroom by her presence, we wish her all the success that can be crowded into two short years. For I dipped into the future, as at certain times we may, And beheld fair Betty ' s ' marriage to a son of W. and J. KATHRYN E. BROWN Kidder Aryan Group I Renovo, Pa. The place seems gloomy and deserted without our ever-smiling and affectionate Kidder. One never tires of Kidder ' s company. Her winning ways and appealing laughter add to her interesting personality. She is a good friend and a good sport, in other words, a real pal. When it comes to music, she is quite a genius. I don ' t think we ' ll ever forget her enchanting and melodious voice. il ' I! ELIZABETH E. BYERLY Bebs Aryan Group I Williamsport. Pa. Who IS this H% ' e-wire on Fourth Floor? Who is the girl with tricks galore? The general torment, the Williamsport scamp. The continuous talker, and yet, some vamp? Bebs is the court jester of Fourth Floor Annex, and the chief entertainer. Her pastime is walking and her byword is hike. Let ' s eat! Columbine Club; Musical Comedy Club; Y. W. C. A. CORNELIA W. BU2BY Woodstown, N. Buzzy Group IV None knew her but to love her. None named her but to praise. Behold this maiden of smiling countenance. Her quiet dignity and pleasant manner have won tor her a host ot friends at West Chester. Those who know her past attainments prophesy a suc- cessful future in the teaching profession until her present interest in Penn State persuades her to change to domestic science. Y. W. C. A.; New Jersey Club; Trolley Trotters. DOROTHY LOU BUTZ McKeesport, Pa. Tve a little time for work, a little more for play, And many an idle moment throughout the gloomy day. Dot has only been with us for a year, but in that time she has endeared herself to all our hearts. Why have Dot ' s teeth ac- quired such queer aches and pains? Must be because Philadelphia Dental College is so near. LOUISE J. BUSTIN Athens, Pa. Her eyes are blue, her hair is blonde Of motor cars she ' s very fond. Witty, peppy, vivacious, laughing, talking, dancing — this is our Bus. She has won many friends, but, alas! her favorite expression is, I just know I will flunk. But instead she always comes out on top. She just loves sweets, and we wonder why. Bushels of luck, Bus dear. Educational Club. GRACE R. BRIGEL Newmanstown, Pa. One look at Grace and we have her number. Very studious (the Y. W. chairs give evidence) and always willing to give help. ( Charleston aspirants are proof.) Grade ' s interest in school-life centers about the mail-box and Hudsons coming up the driveway. If she cannot be found any afternoon, her roommates advise looking in the Library. When she becomes famous, doubtless, its key will be presented to her. Glee Club. MARY MARGARET BRESLIN Molly Mt. Carmel, Pa. ' Sweet personality, full of rascality. This, ccmhined with personality, describes Molly to a T. She is one of the most popular members ot our Class — ask anyone.

Phyl IS especially fond of children and we know that she will be a most successful teacher in the future. Orchestra; Educational Club, Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Dot Aryan Group I DOROTHY G. CAREY Tunkhannock, Pa. Little Oh yes, but we must remember that good things come m small packages. Dot is that bewitching kind of a blonde with blue eyes which attracts everyone, especially the opposite sex. Doubt after doubt has blocked our minds as to why Lafayette and U. of P. are interesting places for Dot. Because of her charming personality, she makes many triends wherever she goes, and they all join in wishing her success in whatever she undertakes whether it be teaching or domestics. ELIZABETH E. CALDWELL Betty Moore Group I Lansford. Pa. Betty has almost everything an ordinary mortal would wish in the way of life ' s gifts. She has also a talent for reducing time and space to nothingness.

Nome has a slight weak- ness for the opposite sex; that accounts for her daily rush to the mail-box. Her hobby is dancing. Best of success to this Irish lass. JULIA V. CANTWELL Shenandoah, Pa. ]n es Moore Group I Small and witty, smiles so pretty. Jules IS known tor her terpsichorean act. Who would dare to forget her and her Spanish Cavalier ? She belongs to the well- known First Floor water-pitcher gang and is usually seen bringing up the rear. Laughing, dancing, teasing, we think her a veritable imp until we look into those big innocent eyes, when we change our minds immediately. Musical Comedy Club; Dramatic Club; Educational Club.

Peggy is an ardent football and basketball tan. Has Longport anything to do with this However, a schoolmarm she expects to be, a good one, too. Just wait and see. ELIZABETH CATER Biny Aryan Group II Sayre, Pa. Betty is a little blonde who came to us from Sayre. From all outward appearances one would think she was one of these quiet little girls who never say or do a thing, but when you know her you change your opinion quite soon. She is a good sport and will be missed by more than one person. Basketball; Tennis. Cu Aryan Group I LAURA M. CUNNINGHAM Mahanoy City, Pa. Merry blue eyes, care-free air; da:;ling smile and golden hair. That ' s our Cunnie. She has more pep than the peppiest, more brains than the brainiest, and more beaux than most of us. If you do not beheve the latter, glance in the lobby any night, ask Paul, or visit her room in Annex and note the collection ot trophies from slain gladiators. It ' s a pleasure. Student Council; Student Court; Columbine Club; Musical Comedy Club; R.O P. D.; Y. W. C. A. CORDELIA E. CARTER Pete Aryan Group I Bndgeville, Del.

As a roommate, none could be better. From her past attainments at Normal and her natural love for little tots, we predict a successful future in the fields of teaching. Y. W. C. A.; Educational Club; Trolley Trotters. Aryan Group IV ELSIE S. CARR Gradyville, Pa. Elsie came to us in the fall of ' 24 from West Chester High School. She is a bright wide-awake girl. If you hear a cheerful laugh or words of sympathy, you might guess Elsie is close by. Her favorite sports are writing lesson plans, eating peanut chews, and riding rather than walking. Aryan Group HI MARION E. COBB Skeex Deer6eld, N. J. Marion ' s last name is Cobb, but she hasn ' t got a bob. But as Student Councilor she surely knows her job. Oh, My Cow! Three guesses who it is. Just our horsie laughing at her roomie ' s wise cracks. Marion ' s other line is cards, and if you don ' t think she can play, ask Babs. Her roomie bespeaks for Marion ' s success in teaching little ones as it was she who heard the woeful tales of practice teaching. Educational Club. ELINORE P. CASSIDY Lena Moore Group II West Chester, Pa. What have we in English? Heavens, who ' s done their school efficiency? These exclamations greet Dark Alley every morning as Elinore rushes up two minutes before class. Elinore has that studious look, and, my how she does fool the public. Her friends wonder that she still lays claim to her tonsils, for in her convulsive streak of laughter we fear they undergo a severe strain. Elinore ' s a dependable person and has never been known to break her word. Green Stone Staff; Hockey; Basketball. BARBARA MAE CHAPMAN Babs Aryan Group III Barnesboro, Pa. Down in the ' Y ' room on the chapel stage ' Babs ' can dance anytime, or play that music ' s played. Next dance promised! Oh! Babs is around. She ' s an all- round sport and born mimic. We all agree she missed her calling for Babs can conduct, Go Down Moses quite as efficiently as Uncle Ned. Concerning the future, we know she will lead everything in life as well as dancing. Educational Club. GENEVA COLEMAN Group IV Darby, Pa. Still water runs deep. Geneva ' s manner impresses one that she is very quiet, but she is always ready for jokes. Her Normal career has been very successful. We wish her all luck in her teaching. i l?,, ' Moore Group II HELEN F.COPLEY Due. Mahanoy City, Pa. By different methods different ones excel. But here is one who can do all things well. Here ' s to a friend, may her joys never end! Helen will un- doubtedly make a splendid teacher, providing. . . .! However, we can ' t help feeling that her calling is that of the actress. You saw her as Beline in The Imaginary Invalid? Ceia suffit ! Her favorite pastime is singing, another of the numerous things she does well. She also professes a liking for Welsh rarebit (?). Moore Play. -Co Moore Group II CATHERINE CORCORAN Philadelphia, Pa. I could just keep right on dancing ever the whole night through. Here is one of our great mathematicians! Isn ' t that so. Dr. Anderson? Catherine may be classed as one of the seven wonders ot the world. She can sing anything from bass to soprano, and if you don ' t believe it listen to her sing in Chapel. She is an ardent supporter of all athletics and just loves to dance. We think Catherine has earned all the success she may have. ISRALE S. CORE h Aryan Health Education Atlantic City, N. J. This young man comes from the Tlayground of the Wond. He must have learned to play down there, for he has been playing ever since. Our old reliable will be missed in sports, but we expect him to take up another more serious one. He only made one bet and that was Bet-E. Is is quite a variety, since he could tear through books as well as opposing teams. We ' ll all miss his advice and humor. You never miss the water until the well runs dry. Don ' t get smart!

I wonder why! 44 1 Aryan Group I FRANCES E. CONAHEY Mxc y Bridgeton, N. J. Always cheerful, never blue. This IS a girl where this is true. Frances is the sure cure for the blues. She is a good sport and always in for a good time. No matter where she is or how hard a task she is performing, she always comes smiling through. KATHERINE MARY CONDREN Kav Moore Group 1 Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Affectionate, sweet, loving, and kind. Another just hke her is hard to find. Kay is one ot our Wilkes-Barre maidens possessing curly hair and a wondertul smile. She is ever pleasant and good natured. It is a grave question as to whether she rooms in Main or Annex. There ' s no place like home, is there, Kay ? Come on, Eddie, let ' s go home. Kay likes dances, but afterward she needs her sleep. Luierne County Club. SARA CLAMPFFER Pottstown, Pa. Sdllv Aryan Group 1 1 wonder what ' s become of Sally? This is a phrase that can be heard upon mounting the steps of second floor. Sally ' s one and only worriment is Arithmetic.

Here ' s luck and success to you, Sally. CATHERINE L. CHRISTMAN Cats Moore Group I Lehighton, Pa. There are cats of all varieties, cats that do and dare, But ot all the little pussies none with our ' Cats ' compare. Hot Dogs! Cats always smiles when she hears this expression. We wonder why!

ETHEL M. DRIESBACH Robesonia, Pa. Ethel is always very quiet, except when relating experiences.

A tall girl with brunette hair, pleasing in manner, and free from care; jolly and ever true, that ' s Rufus through and through. Good luck, old dear. LILLIAN DURHAM Mont Clare, Pa. No; she ' s no relation to the tobacco man. But try and get ahead of her, if you can. She ' s a darling old peach, if you know what I mean.

Violet is the possessor of a pair ot flirty brown eyes, not that she uses them tor that purpose, but, anyway, she surely can roll em. My dear! That is one of the favorite expressions of Violet ' s forceful vocabulary. It doesn ' t matter whether the topic is a murder case or a sociology lesson, she always finds some equally exaggerated sentiment to express her feeling ! She has a keen sense of humor and is seldom seen without Ruth. ANN B. DA VIES Moore Group II Scranton, Pa. Who of our number doesn ' t know Ann ot the fluffy blonde hair She is a most efficient and willing worker m our Class.

What IS your first impression of Pauline when you look at her picture? Quietness and dignity, we imagine, but when you know her, your opinion is changed.

She knows that life on earth is not going to last forever, so she is determined to get out of it every opportunity that it may have to offer.

Dot is always ready to do things for people.

His musical ability, however, is only one of his assets That winning personality and his original humor have made him many friends. He seems to have found most of his recreation in West Chester on Miner Street. That may be because ot his rearing in the coal regions, but we doubt it. We wish him success in the field of science.

Yes, this is Ida. Her sweet personality is felt by all who know her. She walked quietly into the hearts of our Normalites and there she stayed.

They say to know her is to love her. but you don ' t even have to know Rua to love her. To see her is to love her. but to know her is to love her more. We think that most of her diminutiveness IS due to the fact that every afternoon she is seen strolling up town to see — . Best of luck to vou. Rua. ANNA ADELE GANGUVERE Aryan Group II Hillertown, Pa. True friends are great riches. Anne is one of those good-natured souls who has won the friendship of many. Her pleasing personality, in which is inter- mingled kindness, joviality, and high-spiritedness, makes her an indispensable chum. For affirmations, call Third Floor Annex. Then, too, Anne devotes a reasonable amount of time to her studies, for during study hour she is busily engaged copying notes, writing letters, and eating toast.

Yes, she s going to leave us and journey to the Sunny South ' land, but we ll never forget her winning smile. Just ask anyone on Fourth Floor if Nita likes fun, and can she rave Why Girl! We wonder why Nita sets the alarm clock for 6.30 . .M. because it doesn ' t mean a thing. As a bridge player, she takes all the prizes — mostly booby. Aryan Curator.

If there ever was a true friend, Dot is that person. Advice? — she has no end of it. She is bright, too. She can sing and she can add. Ask the pupils she has had. Dot ' s favorite hohby is reading. A book a day is her motto. Her charming personality is sure to win for her success and many friends in the future as it has already done in Normal. Y. W. C. A. Committee. ' Moore Group I MARY G.

HOOPES Hoopsie Toledo, Ohio By the power of gravity he tails — in love. Hoopsie came to us from West Chester High where he gained a high reputation as a football player. If you recall the MiUers- viUe game you will realize that Red Grange has a running mate. You will always find him a loyal friend and a good sport. Today he IS in sight of the goal of his ambition, coaching a winning team. We wish him best of success in all his undertakings.

A diller, a dollar, a ten o ' clock scholar, what makes you come so soon? You used to come at ten o ' clock and now you come at noon. This rhyme was made for Betty. No matter how late anyone else IS, IJetty is always later. This is her only fault, though. for Betty has an ever-ready smile and an extra-large share of big-heartedness. Y. W. C. A.; Educational Club. Mo Group I AGNES M. HOLAHAN Pottsville, Pa. A girl that is good, a girl that is true — Without her I wonder whatever we ' d do. The above verse describes Agnes to a T, for she certainly is good — ask her councilor. Giggle! Well it doesn ' t take much to start her. and when she begins, so does the Class. Yes, we would miss some fun but tor Agnes. Indeed, she is entitled to all the success that may come to her. Y. W. C. A.; Educational Club. MARIAN W. HAINES Mims Moore Group III Moore, Pa. Who would believe that this quiet, demure person harbors such a thirst for adventure? At school we know she works conscien- tiously, never missing classes. But how she spends her week- ends at home we do not know. However, summer or winter, she may be found at the lake in Moore. We know swimming or skating isn ' t the only attraction there. From here she ' s going to Penn to get her degree. Group II MARGARET L. HALLER Aryan Lewistown, Pa. She takes to music like a cat takes to water. Margaret is a girl whose popularity is very much in evidence, especially when one of those huge boxes comes from Lewistown. That isn ' t why we ' re so fond of her, but. of course, it helped quite a bit. Margaret IS lust the dandiest sort of a girl, the longer you know her the better you like her. She has the darlingest nick-name but she won ' t let us use it. Educational Club; New Voters ' Club. L. EVELYN HUMPTON Ardmore, Pa. Humpfv Aryan Health Education There are many well-known girls, but to how many of these could we say, Here ' s to the best-liked girl in the school! Many girls are nice, but there ' s ]ust something about Humpty ' s nice- ness that ' s a little different. You can ' t name it. It isn ' t just her athletic ability, yet what team would be its best without her? it isn ' t just her scholastic standing, yet if you would hear somebody enumerate her marks, you would think they were stuttering on the iirst letter. I guess it ' s just her friendly spirit. President Y. W. C.

MARY CLINTON HART Moore Group II Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Well, I know one thing, you ' re not going to play bridge m my room tonight! This is Mary ' s usual cry at the supper-table. It would take an even greater genius than Mary to concentrate amid that confusion. Her S. R. bonds might be well established in Arithmetic, but when it comes to ushering a broom across the floor, her synaptic connections are sadly disarranged. With a violent upheaval of everything in sight, Mary gets ready to study, and when climatic conditions are ideal, lights go out! Moore Debates, Anti-Bridge Brigade.

The question we ask is, ' Will she ever be quiet? ' Peg and the Student Councilor were on good terms, due to the latter ' s ingenuity. Cheer up! Peggy, next year you will be the ideal teacher. We wish you much success in your work. BEATRICE HARP Bee Moore Group 1 West Chester, Pa. Bee is one of our few local girls, and it days at Normal tail to bring our thoughts back to W. C, we are sure that classmate days with her will. Bee is an all-round good sport, hut she is right there for the serious things, too. Her one weakness is Spaniards. Remember the visitor in Gym class? In spite of this, we are sure that Bee will make an excellent teacher. Good luck and farewell ' £l Aryan Group II ELEANOR HARRIS Carteret, N. J. If big-heartedness were riches, El would be a millionaire. She hails from the New Jersey shores. Early to bed, late to rise, makes one rush with many sighs, is El ' s motto.

Carol IS the mother of the gang — the one who always cleans up after a feed and who sometimes forgets herself to the extent of starting to straighten someone else ' s room.

It would be a crime it I was elected and couldn ' t have it in the ' Serpentine. ' Anyone who has seen Mary playing basketball, her agility, her vitality, will never doubt that she ' s the original Leapin ' Lena of the basketball court.

Her sunny smile is one of her prominent characteristics. Betty is a very earnest worker and is never too busy to do something for someone else. She has her mind set on supervising but things have happened lately leading us to doubt this statement. Super- visors ' Chorus; Orchestra. Marge Aryan Group II MARIORIE PAQUITA IVANS West Chester, Pa. Who doesn ' t know Marge This girl who never lacks pep and can usually be seen in her Ford coupe, always ready to be of service to someone else. She is a good pal with that individual- istic personality which is one of her outstanding characteristics, and wins her everlasting friends. We think teaching is not in her line, but she always makes a success at anything she under- takes, for instance, the Aryan Play. Want a good laugh? Ask what her New Year ' s Resolution was. i [701 EMILY JACKSON Aryan Group U CochranviUe, Pa. On the surface, Emily is a quiet, demure little maid, but wait till she gets started. She has always been interested in her school work at West Chester, but we have heard that there is a deeper interest elsewhere — University of Pennsylvania, for instance. How about It, Em ? Student Councilor, Aryan Group I HELEN A. JACKSON Pennsburg, Pa. Helen ' s quahties can be expressed in the simple A. B. C s (abundance of beauty and charm). She was efficiently prepared at Muhlenburg and came to W. C. S. N. S. to finish with us. On the first day of summer school, the faculty, as well as the students, realized in Helen a good student and a good friend. The past winter proved this to be true to many who did not have the good fortune of knowing her this summer. We wish Helen happi- ness and success in her future work. ABBY JAMES Palmerton, Pa. Aryan Health Education Popularity, sympathy, intelligence, good sportsmanship, and school spirit — can all these be possessed by an individual? We say, undoubtedly no, then you meet Abby and immediately change your opinion. We all know her superior skill in handling both the tennis racket and a hockey club. She was Cawley ' s close runner- up for tennis championship, and anyone who hasn ' t held her breath on the hockey field when Abby held sway has at least heard some spirited discussions on the subject. Basketball ; Hockey; Tennis; Volley Ball; Fire Brigade; Musical Comedy Club. Buddv Group 1 ESTHER ELIZABETH JAMES Wilmington, Del. When the world about is frowning, all is looking dark and drear. Just be sw-eet and keep on smiling, sunshine keeping ever near. This is the secret of Buddy ' s sweet personality, for she is forever bubbling over with joy.

Burnie, as you know, does not participate in the lobby events, due to his indifferent attitude toward the fair sex. Lately his glance has been resting upon lovel y brown tresses.

We are taking this space to wish him the best of success in all his endeavors, including matrimony. President Junior Class; President Liberal Club; Assistant Head Waiter. MABEL E. JONES Moore Group I Freeland, Pa. Mabel belongs to Group 1 but she inclines toward the Health Education for certain reasons. There is a reason why she likes tennis and has become quite proficient in the art. Mabel ' s winrung smile tells us of her optimistic nature. Her popularity is shown by the answer to this question. Where ' s the gang? Up in Mabel ' s room. Whether it he in W, C. or Philadelphia, Mabel can always find happiness. Glee Club. Dot Aryan Group II DOROTHY E. JOHNSTON CoatesviUe, Pa.

She joined the Music Sups ' ranks the second semester ot the first year, and she certainly was welcomed. Gin is becoming quite a cornetist, and we are all proud of her. She lives a very long way from home and gets there only once a year. It is good Absence makes the heart grow fonder and that she believes in it. Sal Arvan Group I SARA E. JOHNSON Cape May, N. J. Sal, another one of that light-hearted merry Cape May crowd. She doesn ' t reside in the dormitory, yet this does not prevent her being known and loved by many.

Best wishes to Sal. JOHN J. JONES Jonesie Aryan Group 111 Scranton, Pa. Music hath charms. John can be sincerely labeled a true friend. With his quiet, unassuming manner and sterling character, set off by his subtle humor, he has won our highest regard. As a musician he is very versatile, his most popular mode of expression is supporting the bass section ot Larry ' s Orchestra with his big bass viol. John carries a heavy program, including a regular semi-weekly course at the Rialto, his attendance being perfect. He is also a devotee of Morpheus.

We wish her much success and happiness as a teacher. York County Club. Peg Group 1 MARGARET ELLEN JAMES Wilmington, Del. Peg IS such a bashful young miss, but sweeter girl you ' d never meet.

Kitten spends most of her time and money going to the city with that certain party at Penn. Good luck and farewell! JOSEPH KLECKNER Diitcli Group III Berwick, Pa. Strong Man Joe was a big addition to the Junior High Group when he came to West Chester for his Senior year. His football experience at Bloomsburg and Blue Ridge fitted him tor a Varsity berth on our championship team. After Joe became West Chester- i;ed we found he had with him an I.

You have the prettiest hair, the nicest pink cheeks, and the cunningest nose. Miss Kelly. You ought to be a movie actress instead of a school teacher. That ' s what Libby ' s pupils think of her. We ' ve no doubt she ' ll make a loving school teacher. But if you want to know who ' s wearing a new necktie or who has his hair parted differently, ask Libby. We wonder what Libby ' s room-mates would do without her to put the window down in the morning. Fire Brigade. ■•Kell Moore Group IV MARY E. KELLY Avondale, Pa. Kelly arrived last fall from the wilds ot Toughkenamon Valley, namely Avondale. She was a very demure little girl, but Normal School environment has changed her considerably, for better or worse. Mary hasn ' t yet met her ideal man. He must have innumerable qualifications. If she would never meet him, she will be armed with an education so that with the aid of her laughter and pleasing personality she can make life easier for others. ANNA S. KELLY Ann Northampton, Pa. Oh. did you see those eyes? That ' s Ann. She ' s the vamp of the T. C ' s. She showed her ability in this by her role in Countess Kate. Did you ever hear this, Sh! ' Ann ' s ' taking a nap ?

We give her two years in the role of her chosen profession and then — Here ' s for success and lots of fun ahead.

We know the Darby Schools will profit by her presence and possibly someone (?) else. CECILIA LYTEL West Chester, Pa. 178] LOUISE LUNDALL Aryan Group II Ringtown, Pa. On first acquaintance with Louise, she appears to he a demure, shy httle girl, but when you learn to know her she is quite fas- cinating. Her Ught hair and deep blue eyes are certainly a very pleasing contrast, when it comes to flirtation. Her main interest in W. C. IS the meeting of one of our most prominent managers in Woolworth ' s.

Norm ' s lite is not all work; still, neither is it all play; she admirably mixes both, and has an ideal day.

Shorty Aryan Group I Our Shorty is small, but then the best things come in small packages. Whatever would the Fourth Floor do without her? She is our alarm-clock, and many would oversleep first class if it were not for her. If there ' s anything going on, Shorty is the first there and the last to leave. As a teacher we know she will he a great success, but we give her just two years. Tine Aryan Group II Oh! girls did you hear? — look about and behold Marianne. Dancing is one of her favorite pastimes, but writing to Charlie, my boy is the most favored. We agree with you, Marianne, that some of the finest fellows come from Penn State.

She was a well-liked Student Councilor and Captain of Quiet Hour in Annex. We wish you much success in your future work, Marianne. Moore Gr I GLADYS LLOYD Scranton, Pa. Gladie has not enjoyed her Senior year as much as she did the lunior year. However, her frequent visits to the Hill School in Pottstown tended to break the characteristic monotony of school- ife.

Tick came to us from the peanut and pretzel city, Allentown. We vouch for her, though. As a school-teacher she will he one, about so long — ' ! Mil Aryan Group VI MIRIAM R. LANDES Yerkes, Pa. Do you know the little Sup. whose eyes are brimful of mis- chief and whose little tongue says the wittiest things when it ' s owner isn ' t busy? Or what — oh, just studying, practicing, walk- ing, or something. Have you guessed yet? If you haven ' t, you ' ve missed knowing one of the dearest little Sups. Just Mim. None could wish her more success than those who have known and learned to love her since she has been at Normal. Kit Aryan Group I CATHERINE R. LUDWIG Douglassville, Pa. Kit ' s practice teaching days found her at Unionville. From there she derived her chief amusements — lesson plans and trolley rides. She is the most superstitious girl in the school. One of her superstitions is seeing the new moon through the window. Although this may predict bad luck, her many friends feel sure of her success in her chosen profession. HELEN LOUISE LE CRON Drexel Hill, Pa. Aryan Group II Where ' s Helen? Have you seen her Yes, she is down in the office looking for the Y candy. Almost any time in the day you ' ll see her taking candy to different rooms, or trying to get the money for it. But she ' s a good sport, and we all think a lot of her. With her charming personality she makes triends everywhere. Y. W. C. A. Cabinet; Educational Club. MARION LANDENBERGER Flnffy Aryan Perkasie, Pa. Group II Marion, always as busy as her hair is curly, comes from Per- kasie. When a bunch gets together, it is always Marion who can entertain with the ukulele. Her encounter with Italy left her winded, but in the end she even learned to like spaghetti. Some- one that wouldn ' t know her might think she was in training for a marathon, but she ' s probably just running up to the Biddle Street School. Glee Club; Musical Comedy Club; Y. W. C. A.; Orchestra; Educational Club; Student Council. ELIZABETH LACHETTER Lib Morton, Pa. Yes, here she is — always joking or teasing. But wait a minute — take a look at her when she says Hello to A — . I know you are wondering if it is a girl or boy. Well ,ask Edith Sweney. Well anyhow. Lib sure is a nice girl. She can attract anyone with her eyes. No wonder, have you seen them? We all wish her success and happiness. ELIZABETH M. LAYTON Betr Aryan Group I Forest Grove, Pa. Betty is our curly-haired lass who has been worrying for the past SIX months whether or not she should let her hair grow. She IS greatly interested in primary work and takes great delight in teaching the children games — especially Jacks. Why is it that Betty puts sugar in her water instead of her tea? Nevertheless, she is a true pal and we wish her lots of good luck. Junior and Senior Glee Clubs. CLARA ELIZABETH LEWIS Aryan Group I North Wales, Pa. Little, gay, and so petite, laughing eyes and dancing feet. Speaking of farina, how ' s Our Gang? She wants to be a nurse, but I think she will be a plumber, she ' s interested in Spigots — so now — I wonder? She has made many friends through her sunny disposition and cheerful manner. She has become endeared to us and we will never forget her. As the old saying goes, To know her is to love her. That ' s Farina! Montgomery County Club; Student Councilor. HARRIET LEIBSON Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Tmy Aryan Group I Petite, but, oh, my!, for, according to the old adage good things come in small packages. Although Music Class has no charms for her now, soon will she be interested in A flat and a scale that begins with dough. She is a combination of true friend and a good sport, always happy and ever ready for social affairs where she is much in demand. And, yet, she is occasionally at study. Her pleasing way has won her a place in all our hearts and she leaves with the best of wishes. Glee Club; Aryan Play. EVA MURRAY Aryan Group I Wilmington, Del. Blue eyes, long lashes, much boyish bob, and a sphinx-like expression — that ' s Murray! She ' s a unique type in that she never raves and never gets excited! But everyone agrees that she ' s a wonderful sport — and as for a friend — well, they don ' t make them better. Murray is about 4 teet 8 inches, but her si:e doesn ' t mean a thing. She can hold her own in anything she undertakes. Glee Club; Unholy Three. HELEN R. MURRAY Murne Moore Group II Plymouth. Pa. She ' s a girl you ' d love to meet And a pal that can ' t be beat. Helen is one of the Three Musketeers of Room 204. She can dance, she can smg, she can do most anything — with one exception — getting up in the morning. It Helen had her way we would eat both breakfast and dinner together. Her future is foretold — she will teach five years — and then? Student Council; Educational Club; Musical Comedy Club. JULIA C.

History is her major subject, and some day we expect to see a B.A. after her name. Our most sincere wish of success in your future work. Hiking Club; Herodotus Club; Student Councilor. •7 Aryan Group III lAMES C. MACK Wilkes-Barre, Pa. The sporting world suffered when Jim decided to renounce the squared circle in favor of the pedagogue ' s chair. Jim is no mere member of the throng — he is individualistic. We have an example of his latent ability in his rise from time-keeper in Zim- mer ' s Band to Minister of Finances of the Serpentine. We look to the time when Jim will dictate politics with a firm hand and a hard-coal-crackmg court-house. Band; Baseball; Track; Football Squad ' aj; Aryan Orchestra ' 24; Business Manager Serpentine. Lou Aryan Group VI LUELLA MOYER Souderton, Pa. Can girls be naughty but still be nice? This eternal question can be answered in the dual personality of our Lou. Honestly, Lou ' s boy friend fell for her line like a ton o bricks. The same old story still is told By all her lovers young and old. But all Lou says to their earnest pleas Sow ' s your wild oats! Mexican Athletics; Orchestra. Cfiirpie Ary Group II VERA E. MORRIS Parkesburg, Pa. Cheerful at morn she wakes from short repose, Breathes the keen air and carols as she goes. Whenever you are in trouble, go to Vera. She has a cheerful word and sunny smile for everybody. Her pleasant manner and friendly smile have won for her a host of friends. Have you noticed her interest in Catasauqua? I wonder why? [831 z MARGARET M. MORAN ■■Chubbv Moore Group Kingston, Pa. Rain or shine, Chubby is always the same — no fair-weather friend is she. In a quiet, unassuming manner she gradually welds herself into an indispensable link in the chain of friendship of all who know her. No matter what it is that ' s to be done, Chubby can always find time to bear her share of the burden — shirk is an unknown word to her. It will be an occasion of sorrow when we say Au Revoir to Chubby. DOROTHY E. MORGAN Dome Aryan Group I Nesquehoning, Pa. ' Carol. bring me an orange and my fountain pen, won ' t you? Thus speaks Dottie queen of The gang. She speaks and we obey. She ' s pretty to walk with, witty to talk with, and pleasant to think about. Who could refrain from smiling when they heard Dottle ' s rippling laughter? We sit enthralled when Dottie IS practicing her stories or speeches on us. Oratory is her forte. Y. W. C. A. Musical Comedy Club. IRENE MOORE Coatesville, Pa. Hon Aryan Group II From a nearby city she commutes every day; She ' s a pal that we all lo . ' e true. She works with a will and smiles at her play With eyes of a clear sparkhng blue. She ' s studying to be a teacher, you know. But we have our doubts for her fate. She gets a letter every day or so Sh! — it ' s from a man at State. Car ' Aryan Group I CAROLYN MOORE Philadelphia, Pa. Carolyn always has been, always is, and always will he in- terested in her subjects, but the subject which she talks about most is Gym (Jimj. We know she will receive A if concen- tation has anything to do with it. Carolyn became gently accus- tomed to the idea ot the teaching profession at the Philadelphia Normal, and just swooped down upon us to put on the finishing touches. EDNA R. MILLER Red Lion, Pa. Ed Aryan Group 1 She likes them tall, she likes them sma But the little Professor beats them all. So gentle, mild, and staid, she surely is a model maid. This brown-eyed maiden is thought by some to be very quiet, but those who know her think differently. She ' s a loyal friend and always ready to tell and help all she can. Good luck, Ed. We know you will succeed in everything you undertake. York County Club. ANNIS MURPHEY Mii e Altoona, Pa. With dimples in her cheeks And mischief in her eyes. She trips her merry httle way And follows the boys with a sigh. Annis, here ' s Arlington ! Annis never believes in attending classes unless she can possibly help it. but she ' s working for an A in movies and bridge. Annis acquired a sudden passion tor chocolate phosphates! last year — Why? LOUISE DE LA MONTAYNE Aryan Grolp IV Towanda, Pa. One IS impressed by Louise ' s dignity — she is always the lady. Her character is like the unfolding of the petals of the rose — the deeper one goes, the deeper grows the heart of her. Sincerity is the keynote ot her character — sincerity in her friendship and in all her undertakings. Neat? — No one ever saw her otherwise! Drop in her room any time and you will find her busily engaged in her drawings. We expect to hear her name read with the greatest artists of the world. All her classmates wish her greatest success! Educational Club. Moody Aryan Group II H. LUTHER MOOD Perkasie. Pa. Moody is a woman-hater — but he loves his enemies. His small stature and wiry physique have made him champion of our group on the Gym floor. In football and baseball he has plugged hard and deserves much credit. As an all-round man in Wayne Hall, his only rival is Charlie Roach, and he is always where you need him and sometimes a bit mischievous, revolutionizing the rooms of his friends. Nevertheless we wish him success, and we will, no doubt, hear of him some day as a mathematician of note. Baseball; Football. AGNES MONAHAN Little Aggie Aryan Group 111 Altoona, Pa. Sure and ' tis the flame ot old Ireland in her eye. Bright, quick, snappy, always on the go, never still a minute is this lovable Irish colleen.

Hockey; Dramatic Club; Musical Comedy Club; Volley Ball; Track; Fire Brigade. EVELYN E. MELLON P.tfiy Moore Group II Williamstown, Pa. Pithy arrived with a great deal of splendor, brushed the BiUtown dust from her clothes, and began to flourish in the sunlight of W. C. S. N. S. To describe Pithy we need more words than are found m Webster. However, we can say she is a very level-headed young miss, due to the way she parts her hair. ' «r ' V r JULIA MILANDER WeriiersviUe, Pa. Julie Aryan Group I Julie IS the little girl that is always ready for fun. We can hear her giggle on the hall almost any time of the day. But don ' t get the idea that Julie doesn ' t study, for she applies herself very conscientiously to her studies. Her manner with children is es- pecially pleasing, and we are sure she will make a splendid primary teacher. Y. W. C. A.; Educational Club. Sin Aryan Group II HAZEL PICTON MILES West Chester, Pa. I ' m sure you have seen Slim racing for all she is worth for her 7.45 classes. It you did not, you should have. In spite of that fact, she is quiet and a friend to all those who are fortunate enough to know her. We all wish her the best success in her future. LILLIAN BAILEY MILLER Simnv Aryan Group II York, Pa. She is wise and bright and cheery A ray of sunshine when the day is dreary. A dark-haired lass whose eyes are both sparkling and tender, entered the portals of W. C. S. N. S. in ' 24. Lillian always has a smile and a helping hand tor those around her. She never leaves a task unfinished, no matter how exacting or taxing it is. All those who know her can truthfully say that Lillian has proved the proverb A friend in need is a friend indeed. Lillian was one of the members of the group that traveled to CoatesviUe. The soothsayer predicts success tor her in any work that she under- takes. York County Club; Social Service Club. ELIZABETH METZGAR Media, Pa. Metzgar Group II This lass advocates art with a large A. Her charming smile, her divine temper C), and her ability to catch a train after it has started have made her well known and liked among The Com- muters. Her perseverance and her ability to see the funny side of a catastrophe will certainly help her to realize her ambition. Moore Group II BEATRICE A. MOORE B Sayre, Pa. Good goods come in small packages, they say, but contrary to this our B is tall and mighty. She is lovable, peppy, original and clever. Her favorite song is Brown Eyes Why Are You Blue We all agree with her that Brown is rather captivating. B ' s favorite study is Science — always last in class and first to get out, but anyway she claims you get to know the teachers better by following this plan. We shall miss B, but, anyway all our best wishes for happiness and success go to her. Pedagogical Club, MATHILDA MARTHA F.l Aryan Group II Philadelphia, Pa, First impression — a big. ' broad grin, curing even the weary Blues. She confesses a fondness for weekends away from Normal — with her misheha% ' ing eyes we don t wonder at attrac- tions elsewhere. But, then, just think, she discusses philosophy and the new Poetry. If you miss a book, Fil is reading it. With her smile and her brain she surely will make a splendid teacher — providing Tillie teaches. Liberal Club. GRACE T. MORAN Moore Group I Ha;leton. Pa. Black, curly hair, blue eyes — yes, a true Irishman in more ways than one. Grace is always ready for a good time, and, as the old saying goes. When work and pleasure clash, just let work go to smash.

MURPHY Scranton, Pa. ■Ed Arvan Group 111 A pleasant look, a pleasant smile — That ' s Ed all the while. Add to Ed ' s jovial disposition, his sincere, sterling character, and you have his formula for making and keeping friends. And speaking of School spirit. his cheer-leading was no small part in the making of our Champion Football Team of ' 2j. The financial success of the Green Stone is due to his untiring efforts. Ask Bill about his gigantic capacities for the Two R ' s — Repast and Rest. Business Manager Green Stone ; Vice-President Aryan; Plays; Cheer Leader; Tennis Team; Herodotus Club; Educational Club; Liberal Club. JOSEPHINE MOORE Judy Moore Group II Scranton. Pa. One of the unusually fine girls is Judy. She is always ready for any fun. but is of such nature that she never neglects her duties. A scholastic record such as hers is to be admired. Deep in thought! I wonder sometimes to where these thoughts lead, but one can easily guess if he only watches those Sunday specials. Green Stone Staff; Fire Brigade; Lackawanna County Club. GERALDINE P. MARTIN Jerry Aryan Group II Harrisburg. Pa. Tell us. Jerry. just where you get the power to win every- body ' s heart? Always smiling, never frowning, always happy, never sad, that ' s Jerry. We often wonder how one so small can possess so many good qualities but then it is said Good goods come in small packages and Jerry is the proof. May she smile her way all through the world and up the ladder of success. Edu« cational Club; Musical Comedy Club; Lieutenant Fire Brigade; Hockey; Secretary Aryan Society; Y. W. C. A. Moore Music I never knew her loveliness Until she smiled on me. Molly has the finest pair of dimples! Wonder what she wil do when time eliminates from her schedule the thrill of going to Gym, and the daily trip, her favorite indoor sport, to Room I2j with Graeffie. We predict a bright future for our sunbeam. Be assured, Molly, that the love and best wishes of your class- mates will always accompany you. ESTHER C, MARSDEN MazeUe Moore Group II Forty Fort, Pa. Three years ago, Esther came to us from Forty Fort. At first we thought she was rather quiet and bashful, but we soon found that she was a very good sport. Marelle particularly likes horse- back riding, tennis, and swimming. She is quite a Math shark. yet her time is divided since she spends much of her time in the lobby with John. If you question her reputation, ask John, he knows. EUGENE H. MARTIN West Chester, Pa. Gen Aryan Group VI A man of set purpose and determined character even before he entered Normal School. Gene is one of our best athletes, a sincere friend, and a worthy student, possessing a great interest in his future work of coaching. He came to us from West Chester High School where he received his early athletic training. We can predict nothing but success for such a man. Varsity Football; Baseball; Basketball; Track; Tennis; Swimming Meet; Men ' s Glee Club. LUCY T. MEEDS Luce Aryan Group II Marcus Hook, Pa. Look who ' s here! This fair maiden came to us from Marcus Hook — yes, and it ' s on the map, too. There is something mysteri- ous about Lucy, for every week-end she seems to disappear. She says she goes home to see her mother, but we w-onder if that is the reason. Well, Lucy, whatever the future has in store for you, we wish you much luck. MARGARET M. M. MEIGHAN Aryan Group I Northampton, Pa. ' Peg ' IS wise and bright and cheery — A ray of sunshine when the day is dreary. Peg is a laughing, good-natured girl from Northampton. It ' s a small place but good things come in small packages. Peg is one of our bright students and a very earnest worker. Her hobbies are Mathematics and Music. When you hear a melodious voice on Third Floor Annex you can bet it is Peg ' s. She 13 a chum worth having. Whatever you do, Peg, our best wishes go with you. [88] MARGARET M. MEEHAN Peg Moore Group II Mahanoy City, Pa. Just to hear your voice and see you makes the sky blue And we ' re all a bit more happy just for knowing you. Petite, but, oh, my! for, according to the old adage Good things come in small packages. In dancing, incomparable, rivaling Terpsichore only. Lest we forget another thing, she ' s extremely efficient in a particular phase of handwork, that of attaching bows (beaux). Taking all m all, Peg is short and sweet and can ' t be beat. Aryan Group II EDITH MARCUS • ' Marcus Harnsburg, Pa. Another member of the Saturday morning late firm. Well, Edith certainly walks fast enough to get there early — but, you see, the train was late. Edith is a lovely girl. Everyone likes her. And she always has something to say m class, even when teaching It. We all wish Edith the best success and happiness. Moore Group I ORPHA MEADS Red Lion, Pa. Here ' s is a friendship good and true. Willing to help all those she knew. A book would not cover all the nice things we could say about Orpha. It is true, she loves sleep, but as a worker she never shirks. Between her lesson plans and the letters which she gets from — (we think it begins with a P ), she is kept very busy. As a teacher, we know she will succeed. Good luck, Orpha. lOLANTHE MAURER Bubbles Aryan Group III Hatboro, Pa. The rarest combination on earth is Bubbles. She ' s the kind about whom one says, Oh, if 1 only had her brains! and yet she ' s the best sport and all-round girl one could imagine. None of us have ever known so many qualities to be incorporated in one single person before, and we don ' t think there will ever be a duplicate. She IS bound by destiny to be famous and loved wherever she goes. Musical Comedy Club; Fire Brigade. Avie Music Supervisor AVANELLE MAZE Ridgway, Pa. Holy jumpin ' up and down — Where ' s my cod-liver oil? But that ' s all right, Avie — you ' re on the right side of a Dean something which few of us can boast, so why worry? Uncle Sam IS kept busy bestowing specials on you, hut you ' re a special girl — such effervescence ot pep, laughter, and originality is the envy of us all.

The happy, care-free, impish kind — A sweeter girl you ' ll never find. ' Darn that hell! ' and Oh, kid, that ' s swell! — These are the words we know so well. Never mind, Mickey — we all love you just the same. She ' s another one of that Fourth Floor Anne.x Gang — Nuff Sed! ' She s from ' way up state and those of us who know, think she will teach near home — various reasons. Cheer up, ' Mickey, you won ' t have to sit in the hall on cold nights writing letters any more ' The best of luck to you. HELEN MASON Pleats Aryan Group I Magnolia, Del. Laugh, and the world laughs with you. Weep and you weep alone. This is evidently Helen ' s motto. There is one thing about her — she IS always quiet in class. We don ' t know what the attraction IS in Helen ' s letter-box, but she is quite a frequent visitor there. Perhaps it is to add to her store of letters, but we haven ' t the time to figure it out. Here ' s wishing her the best of luck. WILLARD B. MATTHEWS Mattv Aryan West Chester. Pa. Group HI We will put Matty down as one who loves his fellow-men — and we feel sure it works both ways. He has won distinction on the football field and we know success will be his in other en- deavors if — his Rip Van Winkle tendencies do not dominate him. But his weakness gives him strength and with this asset his success IS certain. Football; Educational Club; Green Stone Staff. Aryan Group IV BLANCHE MOORE Gibhsboro, N. J. Blanche, a titian-haired maiden, is another who hails from New Jersey. Her gentle disposition and unruffled calm are outstanding characteristics, and she is always cheerful. Blanche is a member of the rural group, and her experience in teaching history has made her an authority on the Eskimos, Cave-dwellers, and resident ot Java. We just know she will be a successful teacher and that her charm- ing manner will win all the little girls and boys to a love of the three R ' s. Hostess Club; Y. W. C. A. Committee; New Jersey Club.

I ' m never coming in this room again. Where did you hear the words before? And who hasn ' t heard that melodious voice trailing down the hall to a certain end room on North Campus? There are rumors about that the Class of ' 26 wish to dedicate a chair in the library to Honey. We can ' t imagine why. can you, Honey ? Glee Club; Lackawanna County Club; Bridge Brigade. Cappy Aryan G[ KATHRYN McNlTT Milroy. Pa. Many are the words of the poet. Did you ever hear that Tee Hee ? Well that ' s our Cappy. Noise is indeed abundant when our poet begins her rhymes. She is one of Longfellow ' s rivals, and as studious as a Trojan going to battle. Cappy has a great fondness tor hiking, and we are certain she IS well drilled by moonlight hikes at home. Educational Club; New Voters Club; Hiking Club. Sii ' Aryan Group II ELEANOR McNlTT Milroy, Pa. Smiles are the flowers of human nature. What would it mean if Sis were not wearing a smile? Trouble, we assure you. Did she not receive the letter she was expecting Well that may be a good clue. Sis is very industrious, enjoys her profession but finds great pleasure in a co;y corner and a book. Higher institutions interest her, but whether the opposite sex, we are undecided (?). Educational Club; Hiking Club; New- Voters Club. MARY McANDREW Moore Group II Wilkes Barre, Pa. You may see the smile on this picture but you haven ' t seen or heard anything yet, when you haven ' t heard Mary laugh — or should we call it chuckle. But it ' s one of the many dear things that she possesses. You can bet on Mary ' s Irish wit (and she has that wonderful trait). Everyone who knows Mary loves her — and why shouldn ' t thev? HESTER McQUAlDE Essie Aryan Group II Folsom, Pa. Ga:e at our Hester. She is one of the best and sweetest girls m the Class of ' a6.

Here ' s wishing you luck and happiness, Hester. FRANCES McNAlR Eureka, Pa. FrdTicev Aryan Group I Frances is haunted by the tear of accumulating too much avoir- dupois. Her many friends know her as a good sport and a good pal. She is an accomplished musician on the uke, her tavonte piece being Show Me the Way to go Home. Anyone requiring help need go only to Frances and it vanishes. We do not know if Frances will follow the noble profession or not, but our good wishes will follow her, no matter what she undertakes. Glee Club. WILLIAM J. McCORD Moore Group IV West Chester. Pa. He graduated from UnionviUe Joint Consolidated School in 1924, having spent the year previous in Redlands High School at Redlands, Calif Through the mud upon the windshield, he could see the way before him to enter West Chester Normal in the fall of 1924. Betty Aryan Group II ELIZABETH G. McDERMOTT McKeesport, Pa. So gentle, serious, mild, and staid. She surely seems a model maid; But gentle reader, mark you well. You cannot alw ays sometimes tell. Betty approves of the S. P. C. A. but she forgets when it ' s a Princeton man inside a raccoon coat. HELEN M McCULLION Mac Moore Group II Summit Hill, Pa. Always smiling, always sweet. Just a girl you ' d love to meet. Mac is one of the blondes who came to West Chester in 1924. She has a cheery disposition, therefore, the reason for her countless number of friends is easily explained. Does she receive mail? — we ' ll say she does, and they are mostly from the opposite sex. Heaps of success to you, Mac, is the ardent wish of your Class. Educational Club. [92] EM ELIZABETH McCUE West Chester, Pa. Billu Aryan Groli WILMA McMYNE Carbondale, Pa. Happy-go-lucky, care-free, and never a worry — that ' s BiUie. Her bright remarks and sweet smiles linger in one ' s memory. There is but one question in our minds, and that is, Why are all her clothes trade-marked Clem ' j6 wishes you the best of success in the future. Lackawanna County Club; Y. W. C. A. Moon Grou MARY McGUIRE Scranton, Pa. Mary, our studious little friend from Scranton, is more than studious in our estimation. She even bought candles to furnish light after hours. What about it, Mary Is it good policy? The time has now come when she will reap the fruit ot her labors, tor w-e are sure she will make a hit in the field ot teaching, but we know that she will also make a home run. Good luck, Mary. 6 55 Moore Group I BESSIE Mcdonough Carbondale, Pa. Something tells me Bess ' life will be endangered if she keeps annoying the inmates of Room 3, 4 after 10. Dark Alley couldn ' t possibly sleep without its customary Good-nite from Bess or her room-mate. Well, little Irish Face, you ' ll never tool the public with that brogue of yours. But it ' s cute and we Hke it. You ' ll be a darling first group teacher, and I imagine there ' s many a lad that would like to start school again.

She tells us she never goes out to theatre parties but any night you want to see her, see King ' s Dance Catalogues and you ' ll be sure to find her at one of these dances.

She is an all round athlete, excelling in basketball, from which she expects to make her livehhood. Aryan Group II DOROTHY LOUISE McCLELLAND Doi Perkasie, Pa. If love is a crime, I am guilty, Good nature, amiability, and a bright, sunny smile condensed into a three letter word — Dot. Walking, hiking, selling candy, library work, and other forms of exercise are her only vices. Dot surely has a host of admirers, but, oh, that one. We have all kept a close watch on that third finger for the last year. Student Council; Hostess Club; Library Assistant. EDITH McCONNELL Bristol, Pa.

McPHERSON Kaie Aryan Cape May, N. J. Group I So you are from the ' skeeter country : ' Thus one of our pedagogues greeted Kate her first day in West Chester. One adjective applies to Kate, and that one is handsome. Those flashing eyes and curly hair, combined with a charming disposition, make an irresistible combination. There is an all-important letter in Kate ' s mail-box each day. and we feel that Kate will soon be Mrs. HELEN LEE McGOVERN Torch Moore Group I Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Torchy, in her own good-natured way, has become one of the best-liked girls in the school. The nick-name you can hardly appreciate unless you have come into contact with her. She is one of the most industrious members of the Titian Tints Club. Torchy isn ' t athletically inclined, nevertheless she holds a great interest in the Health Ed-s. ' Micfj Moore Group VI MAE McLaughlin Good Spring. Pa. What IS an angelic expression? You won ' t know until you see the imp of mischief dancing in her eyes. Mae would rather not forsake anyone in time of need or trouble — she will willingly and skillfully. She can tell your past, present, and future, shingle your bob, get into your room when the door is locked, or advise you on the latest traffic regulation in New York City. So, with her wide repertoire of accomplishments, we hold no fear for her future after she leaves W. C. — only a deep regret on losing a true pal. Chorus; Track; Basketball.

Pat ' s hair is one of her chief attractions. Who wouldn ' t envy that pretty curly mop. especially on a rainy day? Helen has that peculiarly attractive characteristic of looking for the good in everybody, and overlooking entirely their shortcomings. If there is any good in anybody. Helen will find it. Heaps of luck from the Class of ' 26. Dot Aryan Group 11 DOROTHY McCORMICK West Chester, Pa. Dot IS one of those industrious people who by going to Sum- mer School are able to graduate a whole semester ahead ot the rest of us.

You should just see her smile. And contented yes, all the while. The first impression of Cornie makes you think her a serious, dignified type of girl. She is more than that.

Coming from Philadelphia, Kathryn need never worry about finding her supply of week-end excuses overdrawn. And, oh. what her traveling bag can hold! But not by food alone did Kath capture our hearts, for we believe she had a patent on all known devices of making and holding friends. Judging from the amount of work she did in art last year, one might believe she had taken all the art electives offered — but we of lesser talent merrily hold our place. Our appreciation of her is the result of experience. New Voters Club; Educational Club. MARY B. RANCK Mane Barneston, Pa. Faithful and loyal, true blue — That ' s our Mary, through and through.

We have no doubt she will make a lovable school teacher, yet we are wondering which it will be — the Little Red Schoolhouse or the Church Around the Corner.

When you hear this expression you know that Jerry is around. Although she is a studious girl, she believes in the proverb There ' s time for work and time for play.

Once upon a time there was a girl who had the nicest disposition that anyone could possibly wish for. She went about her small sphere spreading sunshine in gloomy corners, and, on, just making the world better by living in it. One day she went to Normal School! She had to get up early, eat insipid meals, and study, oh, so hard, and would you believe it, after living thus tor two years, she still had a lovely disposition. If this really were a fairy tale, Florence, we could have you live happily ever after. As it is we can only wish you the very best of everything, for you deserve it. Aryan Group II GRACE M.

Katzy Aryan Groi We cannot understand why Katzy came all the way from western Pennsylvania to gladden the hearts of her numerous friends, hut we bless the influence which made her one of us. Several factors which go to mold Katzy, as we know her, are an ever-present room-mate, lovable disposition, wavy hair, expressive eyes, coupled with a surplus of brains. Knowing from experience that she cannot be other than a success in life, we reluctantly bid her adieu. DOROTHY C. SHILLADY Aryan Group I East Downmgtown, Pa. Dot, with her contagious giggle has brightened many of the miles between Downmgtown and West Chester, as she is one of the Downingtown delegation which comes to Normal.

JESSIE V. WHERRY Sis ' Moore Group III Juniata, Pa. None knew thee but to love thee. None named thee but to praise. The best description of our Jess i s summed up in these few words.

She is noted among the Commuters by the fact that she has to travel during the night in order to get to school in time for class. We predict a successful future for Adele, whether It be as a school teacher or as a lawyer ' s assistant. MARION I. WINTERS Moore Group II Hadeton, Pa. Marion is a dear, sweet girl with the prettiest blue eyes and brown wavy hair we have seen for some time. She always finds time to be a co-hostess in Room 264 to the gang, even though she spends much of her time in writing verses in her book ot poems. Where does she get the, — well, she doesn ' t have a trunk- ful of letters and novelties for nothing. She likes quite a few people who are not females, and we ' re sure that they all love her too — same as we do. [1261 MARGARET A. WILLIAMS Pfg ' Aryan Ridgway, Pa.

Seldom does one find so many sterling qualities combined in one individual. El is a girl of distinction, and our one regret is that we did not see more of her. Those who are privileged to know El find her to be a jolly pal, always sympathetic, and ever ready to help you. She certainly does deserve credit for the splendid way in which she kept an eye on her mischievous room-mate, Dot.

[127] TO WEST CHESTER We hurt the thing we love, Hence have I heaped blame upon thee, Nor would I take it back; Yet thou hast given to me A motive, a challenge, and a command — Go forth and follow thy vision Though it lead to the utmost star, One beacon gleams for thy guiding, White truth, which shines from afar. To it there may be many paths The sons of men may follow; Some climb hills and traverse floods, And some wind through the hollow, Where streams are sweet, and woods are green. For others are the marts of men. The blazing lights, the crowded street. Where men with haggard faces. Battle with life, nor admit defeat. What matter then the way we take. The path we chose so surely? We only know our lives we stake. Though we follow our quest so blithely — Go forth and follow Thy vision. Emma Sidle SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the land of dreaming, bright with colors gay. Strolled a care-free singer at the close of day. He was called Aladdin, and he sang his wares In the land of dreaming never touched by cares. AS WE wander through this land of dreaming let us try to delay Aladdin long enough ■ L for him to use his magic in our behalf, so that he may show us the fascinating pan- X A. orama of the past three years. What is your first wish? he asks after we have secured his attention. Show us, Aladdin, the gay young Sophomores at West Chester during the 1923-24 term. He rubs his lamp for some time without any result and we wait anxiously for fear nothing will happen. Ah, here it comes, he says at last. The lamp needs much rubbing to bring back a past scene which has been followed by two crowded years. The sophomore class is small this year because it is only the second year that three- year courses have been offered at West Chester. The one hundred seventeen sophs include first-year Music Supervisors, Junior High School students, and the Health Education Super- visors. In a group of such vastly different interests it is difficult to hold together and display much class spirit. These students seem more a part of the Class of 25, with whom they have entered school, and with whom they are joining in athletic activities, the Health Eds alone having separate teams. However, rather late in the year, a meeting is called and the following officers elected: Herman Hoopes, President; Charles Brown, Vice-President; Jessie Gilbert, Secretary; John Chambers, Treasurer. At the close of May, these students, well versed in the tricks and trades of Normal School, are sent (of course, they aren ' t willing to go!) home, while the Seniors prepare for their Commencement. Now the year is over, the scene fades away. But don ' t stop there, Aladdin, we plead, Tell us of the next year, too. ' Very well, I will rub my faithful lamp again and, behold! The campus at West Chester is flooded with people, some wandering around as though lost, others strutting around as though they owned the place. It is September 14, 1924. It is easy to guess that the actors in this scene are the sophs ' of last year greeting their returned classmates and welcoming the new Juniors whom they will soon introduce to the dinky , Hoopsies, ' Roselyn Rest, ' the Oriole Tea Room, the tennis-courts, the athletic field, and other landmarks of importance. ' Gradually, as the days and weeks pass, these six hundred twenty-one Juniors become as well acquainted as possible in such a large group and the time has come for a class meeting. The new officers they choose are: Arthur Jones, President; Herbert Pearson, Vice-President; Dorothy G. Smith, Secretary; Ann B. Davies, Treasurer. As we hurry rapidly over the scenes of this year, we find the following things of im- portance being done. The class motto, He conquers who conquers himself ; the flower, sweet pea; and the class colors, blue and gray are chosen. The all-important question of class jewelry arises and after much discussion and voting a very pretty pin and ring are selected. The Music Sups during this year also choose a pin representative of their course. Thus, with business and pleasure mixed, we see the Junior year speed by and soon it is time for the Class of 26 to bid their Senior friends farewell and leave West Chester for the summer. How vivid you make it appear, Aladdin! we exclaim. ' Do you want me to continue with the Senior year? ' Yes, yes. My lamp is getting rather dull so I will have to rub it again. On September 16, 1925, we have that first day again. But our friends whom we have been following are Seniors now and what fun they have that day! Most of the new Juniors [129] m are wearing the distinguishing Httle blue bow, sent to them during the summer. The ' Y ' girls are on hand to greet and help the newcomers. Occasionally, however, in their eagerness to serve, they approach a stranger, not so marked, and say ' May I help you? only to receive the haughty reply, ' I am a Senior. ' Oh, well, such things will happen in the best of families! The Senior year, with much important business, is beginning. At an early date another group of new officers is elected by the class: ' Larry ' Ginter, President; Stephen Elinsky, Vice- President; Louise Denison, Secretary; Gertrude Cook, Treasurer. This IS a great year for some of the class in sports. Isn ' t the class proud of some of its boys who are helping carry off Normal School State Championships again? The girls are right there, ' too, winning second places in the major sports and some of the class, those of the Health Ed Course, are fortunate enough to play on winning teams. With January comes a real snowstorm and the question on the lips of every Senior is, ' Will we have our sleigh-nde? ' They seem doomed to disappointment, however, for the snow disappears before plans can be made and such a thing as a second heavy snowstorm in the same year seems unthinkable for West Chester ! But the ' elements ' are kind, and in February we see the roads again drifted high. L the hope of enjoying the Senior privilege (?) to be realized? Yes, hurrah! the joyful news comes that sleigh-bells will really jmgle. Long after the night ' s revelry, the Seniors will remember how the snow and moon made a fitting background for the treat; how the thermometer rose or rather fell — to the occasion, even registering ten degrees below a becoming temperature; and how the wind blew a blast cold enough to chill the spirits of anyone not supported by the thoughts of good things forthcoming. What Senior murmured though the sled seemed to resemble a sardine box and he himself the bottom sardine? Even a freezing toe was a small matter compared to the fun. Everyone said the party ended ' just right ' with the welcome refreshments and dancing at the Green Tree Inn. This helped make it a late hour when the ' Greenstone ' walls again enclosed the frolickers, who all jumped into bed saying, ' Wasn ' t it great! ' It is now about two weeks after the sleigh-nde and as we enter the Library we see the Seniors holding their traditional reception in honor of Washington ' s birthday. Do you recognize the class officers, attired as George, Martha, and their friends? And don ' t the eight Seniors, whom we next see dancing the Minuet, look as though they belong to Colonial times? Senior girls, dressed in white, with aprons and caps of blue and gray, are serving refreshments. All these things help make it a most enjoyable occasion. Let us look at another event of the Senior year, the selection by the Health Ed and Junior High School students of class pins suitable to their respective groups. How eager they are to receive them, adding another badge to their numerous insignias. One of the members of this Class, who stands out as having helped establish a name for West Chester musically, is Miss Kathryn Noll, better known as ' Kate. ' With her lovely contralto voice she won the first prize in the National Music Contest at Portland, Ore., last summer. Several concerts to be given by her are on the program of entertainment of the Senior year. As the end of the year approaches, the events are more distinctly outlined. For instance, won ' t you often chuckle again in remembrance of some of the funny costumes and poses of the ' Faculty in Pictures ' ? Father Time seems to be chasing himself, the weeks are flying so fast. In quick succession we see the faculty plays, the spring cantata, the Junior Prom, the Play Festival, the Aryan Reunion, Alumni Day, Class Day, Commencement Day. And now, alas, the time has come for you to say ' good-bye ' — forever? yes, ' for some of you — to the Alma Mater which has been so dear to you for two or three years. Friendships made during those years will not soon be forgotten. May the education and experiences received at West Chester help you as you endeavor to teach others and may you truly follow your motto ' He conquers, who conquers himself. ' And now, farewell. We would have Aladdin rub the lamp again that we might look into the future, but with this parting wish, he has gone and we can see no more. Therefore, whatever the fates have destined to be inscribed on the pages yet to be turned is known only to them. May whatever IS there for the members of the Class of ' 26 bring joy and happiness to them all. L. Evelyn Humpton [130] EGYPT is rather hot in February, so I had chosen for my siesta a spot shaded by the doorway of the temple under the sphinx which we were then excavating. This was carried on, you remember, by the Hollmger Foundation, an important branch of the better-known Rockefeller Foundation of Egyptology. My mind was tilled with the orations of that picturesque fanatic, who m more lucid days I had known as Quentin Chaffee. How, I reasoned, could these stone guardians of the Nile avenge them- selves upon living people? True, there was something queer about Lord Carnarvon ' s death. Then there was the Frenchman and the Greek. The natives will not go near the diggings after sundown. That beetle looks exactly like a scarab come to life. It has bitten me but I feel no pain, only there is the smell of bitumen in the air and the odor of cedar. I have entered the doorway of the temple and my footsteps echo where feet have not trod for five thousand years. Following the sound of weird music, I enter a columned hall where a thin shaft of light plays upon the scarlet and gold painted carvings. As my eyes accustom themselves to the twilight, I see Ra seated on a throne surrounded by the forty- eight judges. Meeting my amazed stare, Ra winked his sacred eye. Heavens! It ' s Billy Haxton. He always did wmk. Before I had recovered from this shock, a sudden bang called my attention to the orchestra, the cause of the music which had lured me hither. A flaming mane shaking over an anachronism of a piano, made me think of Paderewski, but a closer inspection proved it to be Francis Feiniswog. Agnes Ready waved a frantic baton, while Avanelle Maze, with a cobra coiled around her left arm, played the violin. The serpent seemed quite charmed. Mary Gifford jazzed things u p with a sa.xophone. Hildegarde Anderson, dressed like Cleopatra, chanted the petitions in the litany to Osiris, while the entire Music Super- visors ' Chorus answered the responses in four parts. Well, I thought, this is too much for me. Ill go ask ' Billy Haxton. He always knew everything. Before I could carry this out, a voice in my immediate vicinity asked, Any quests today? Realizing that I didn ' t belong here, I handed John Greising fifty cents. This seemed to break the spell, for the eye winked, the orchestra banged and the hall vanished. In a twinkling I was in a city of bearded men and Byzantine domes. The new home of the revived Imperial Russian Ballet recently completed by a Hungarian firm headed by Gibble who had left the United States because of the strict enforcement of the Volstead Act. Curious to see this institution, I entered. A rehearsal was on and Ben Hebher- engton was wildly directing Joe Klechner and Cornelia Smith whose dance imperson- ating The Crimes of the Borgias will be featured next week. Harriett Liebson, dressed in scarlet velvet, is getting warmed up for her sensational Symphony in Black and Red dance then playing. What m the world are you doing here? asked Paula Elgart, rushing up to me. Not knowing why I was there, I parried, And what may you be doing, Paula? Oh, didn ' t you know I am in charge of the teaching of English in Leningrad ' s largest high school. This is the day when our Soviet has tickets to the ballet. You know we use no money here. As I opened my mouth to answer, the orchestra sounded, and Paula and Russia passed out of view. I was back in the Temple of the Sphinx surrounded by the forty-eight judges. This time I simply must rush up and ask Ra what it was all about. But, alas for plans of mice and men. John Griesing bore down upon me. Unwilling to relinquish another fifty cents, I fled. Just when the columns became skyscrapers I cannot say, but certain it is that I next found myself on Fifth Avenue. My nerves were in a terrible condition and shopping might soothe them. With this in view, I entered Madame Andries just opposite. The place was new and had that air of distinction which one generally associates with the Rue de la Paix. The petite brunette who assured me that, Madame will be with Mademoiselle in a moment, spoke with a French accent but had a familiar look. True to prediction Madame came forward and I recognised Margaret Williams. Why youre not French I blurted out. No, just from Paris, answered Madame, I took a Cook Tour, after teaching geography two years. Such sophistication from our innocen t school- girl! About this time the model returned with another girl whom Margaret introduced as Nora Redington. I had recognized the other as Betty Fleugel. Realizing that I was a stranger in New York, they offered to put me up at their apartment. On our way there, Nora explained that they were living in a sound-proof apartment with Mary Gannon, Toots Hemstrest, and Winnie O ' Donnell. That evening we went down to Greenwich Village to a new restaurant The College Widow which specialized in college eats. I found it to be run by Bert Jehu, Mary Hughes, and Marian Perry. Betty explained that the two girls entering, with startling haircuts, were Annis Murphy and Marie Schenkmeyer who were employed by an enter- prising firm of hairdressers to introduce the new styles. The girl over in the corner was Genevieve Lanshe whose moving picture machine dominated her apartment and occupied her leisure hours. Dot McClellan entered with Paul, so I ran over to speak to them. We were married shortly after graduation, explained Dot, and live half the time in Perkasie with my people and half the time m West Chester with the Hetheringtons. When I got back to my table, the girls had procured a Tunes and were scanning the theatrical notices. Dottie Bear was the lead in Keith s bill for the week, with a song and dance number. May Days, the best picture of the moment, was starring Annette Noon. The chief musical event was Edna Rhodes ' concert which contained several of Egan ' s better-known compositions. Feeling rather highbrow, we decided upon the latter. We had plenty of time, so thought we would drop in upon Luella Moyer, Gardy Anderson, and Mary Williams who have a studio apartment in the Village. They were full of gossip concerning everyone. Blanche Thomas had just been appointed soprano soloist of the First Baptist Church, of which Marion Fix was organist, and Larry Ginter was choir master. A National convention of the Y. W. was in session. This meant that Evelyn Humpton, the president of the Pennsylvania Association, and Louise Denison, as her secretary, were in town. Sal Engle had been appointed National councilor of camps. Time was passing so we said, Good-bye, girls, see you soon again, and called the elevator. The descent was rather rapid, so I grasped a pillar which, when we reached the bottom, I found to be in the Egyptian temple again. The orchestra had left and Billy Haxton, as Ra, was talking to Osiris. Here ' s my chance to ask for an explanation, I thought. Just as I was about to speak, Osiris turned and said, Do you realize you are taking up my time? Ed Murphy, quoting his high school teacher again. They just could not be separated. This time I found myself in Philadelphia. An electric sign up around Billy Penn s hat, an innovation, advertised that Fighting Jimmie Mack would battle with Izzy Corb in the Ballroom of the Bellevue-Stratford. ] had always thought they were such nice boys, decidedly I wouldn ' t go there. As I drew near City Hall Plaza, I realized that the dense crowd denoted something unusual. Sure enough, Mabel Strayer was standing on the balcony over the Market Street arch delivering an appeal to the citizens of Phila- delphia to uphold the Republican candidate for governor. Miss Dorothy G. Smith. A group at my right, apparently composed of students, somewhat diverted my attention. An earnest-looking young woman was addressing them from the proverbial soap-box. Students, I appeal to you to further the interests of the working man of the common people. Personally I admire Miss Smith, but I cannot vote for the Republican machine. Elizabeth Bernstein of course! My continued stare must have attracted her attention, for shortly she came over and took me down to The Russian Eagle, for lunch. After the usual preliminaries, we started with the old crowd. Did you know that Caroline Eldrict is married? Her husband teaches at Penn, — this from Bernie. ' I ]ust saw the pictures of the ' All-American ' Women ' s Baseball Team which won in the Olympics. McGonigle was captain. Then there was Cassidy, Molly Malley, Vander- pool, Laura Cunningham, Ruth Detwiler, Mae Cawley, Abby James, and — let me see — yes— Marion Landenberger, was my contribution. Nothing daunted Bernie continued with her tale of domesticity. Helen McGovern, of course, married Leroy, and ' Art ' Jones, Jessie. He is now superintendent in Wilkes-Barre. Speaking of Wilkes-Barre did you know that Clare Shields and Adele Flanagan have opened a beauty parlor there? ' Did you know, I managed to get in, that Anna Pryle and ' Kitty ' Poley are manu- facturing a curling-iron which is guaranteed not to burn holes in blankets? I don ' t see why they are doing that, said Bernie. Olive Billings is married, and both she and her husband are teaching in Philadelphia. Gladys Lloyds ' husband teaches at the Hill School for Boys. By this time we had both run out of news and it was getting rather late. Bernie had some more speeches to make and I had some shopping to do, so we parted with the usual promises to write. The next morning I went out to Moore to see Marian Haines. It was Sunday morning, so I walked down Mam Street to meet her. Sure enough, she came out of church with her two nice children, the one in pink and the other in white. I don ' t see how she ever keeps them so neat. Why EmmyLou, I never expected to see you here. I thought you were in Egypt. (So had I, but I must explain my presence.) Oh, I just came back, won ' t you invite me to dinner? Just then her hus- band came along. He always did make me see red, and by the time I had recovered my equilibrium I was again in the Hall of the Sphinx. Flaming torches along the walls gave light and flung weird shadows on the hiero- glyphics. All the while the strains of the orchestra rose in pitch and volume. A gay note crept into the music that I had not heard before. Suddenly I was in Pans in the midst of the Spring Festival. The streets were filled with revelers and the air with confetti. A tangle of gaily colored streamers descended upon me and I found myself face to face with Gertrude Cook. What! Alone in Paris on a night like this? Pulling me along, Cooky threaded her way among the revelers. A candle-lit cafe in the Latin Quarter proved to be our destination. Here we found Jean Gillan and Jessie Gilbert, the latter sketching heads on the menu cards. We are both studying art, responded Jessie to my questioning, and Jean had a picture in the Salon. Jean ' s deprecatory gesture was almost French. To detract attention from herself she said that Kathryn Noll was having a splendid season in opera and would probably tour America next year. Dick, her sister, is making good in musical comedy and has signed a Broadway contract under a French assumed name, so you see it is a dead secret. Cooky contributed the information that Josephine Moore was writing a book, though she did not remember just what it was about. All the while the merriment was getting louder, due in part to the French not having had the legislation of our Mr. Volstead. Some revelers jostled us and I fell down. I have a hazy recollection of smoke, and columns and Ra ' s eye winking and I found myself in West Chester sitting m the lobby. A dignified woman came forward and asked me what she could do for me. It was Veronica O ' Rourke who has become Dean of Women since Miss McCarthy ' s resignation. We went over to her office in the Phillip ' s Memorial Chapel and discussed old times together. You know quite a few ot our classmates are here. Mildred Tetz is teaching handwriting and Ann Davies has taken Miss Bull ' s place with the Educational Measurements work. John Brockin has Mr. Hollinger ' s job since he has devoted all of his time to the hotel business. The scene grew less clear. I had a glimpse of Mane Fitzgerald locked safely within convent walls, and of Gerty Hughes enjoying herself in Florida while her grand ' mother hovered in the background m the best of health. Once again I smelt the bitumen and cedar wood of Egypt and suddenly a white-garbed nurse was feeling my pulse, Where am I? Hush, the doctor said you must not talk. You are in the American Hospital at Cairo. Everything will be all right in a few days when you recover from the bite of that beetle. Emm.a Sidle SM 134 1 CLASS WILL KNOW YE, hereby, that we, the members of the Class of Nineteen- Twenty ' Six, being of sound mind (in so far as we know), and being m full possession of our senses, do this day will and bequeath to those we leave behind us, all our worldly and other-worldly belongings, be they necessary or not to the welfare of the school, and we dispose of these aforementioned belongings in the following manner: First. Since we, the members of this Class of Nineteen Twenty-Six, have nobly pur- sued (whether voluntarily or not) the required course of study for two long years, we feel It is altogether fitting and proper that we should bequeath this privilege to those already in the school, and to those who are yet to come. May they profit by our experi- ences and inexperiences, sad though they may have been. Second. Although we deeply regret to do it, we feel compelled to relinquish all claim to regular Chapel seats, where we constituted, for two years, a large part of the best chorus m the state. We hope the future choristers always get there on time. Third. We will and bequeath to the school at large our worthy and valuable patronage of the Five and Ten as well as of the Rialto and Idle Hour. Fourth. To the new students we will the harrowing experience of the first day at school. Not that we are naturally resentful, but because this is a necessary adjunct of School Life, the overcoming of which experience will result in a new group of real coUegiates. Fifth. We will and bequeath to both the student body and faculty, the iron doors leading to the mail-boxes, together with a complete list of expressive adjectives with which to satisfactorily revile the innocent victims. Sixth. We unreservedly will to the young women of the school, the well-worn path on High Street to Gay Street, to be used as often as necessary, provided that ladylike conduct is always employed while walking thereon. Seventh. We will our Cells and Cell numbers to all future occupants, hoping that they will cherish and reverence them to the same degree that we have. Since it is a well-known scientific fact that noise travels, we sincerely desire that these said occupants strive to maintain absolute silence during Study Hour as we, the Seniors, have always done. Eighth. We unconditionally bequeath to all the students and members of the faculty, the use of the new Chapel, with the hope that when on one of those far and in-between visits to the school as an Alumnus, we shall be able to find a seat therein. J inth. We will to Prof. Starkeys future pupils a profound love for taking dictation. We also advise them (with heart-felt sympathy) to always keep on hand a bottle of lini , ment to ward off any acute attacks of writer ' s cramps. Te7ith. A little book entitled How to Raise Young Daughters to Mr. Zimmer, with our very best wishes. Ill „, g tiylTJ Eleventh. We will to Mr. McKelvie and Mr. Free real, honest-to-goodness suits of armor to protect them from any stray Cupid ' s darts. We realize ourselves how irritating and annoying these said darts are and always will be. Twelfth. We will to Miss McCarthy ' s future students in English, the privilege of hearing her read, The Cat Who Walked by Himself. We shall always remember the great charm with which she fascinated us by this story. Thirteenth. To Mr. Kinneman a few yards of brightly colored cretonne, one rocking ' chair, a comfortable lounge, several artistic pictures, etc., to be used in furnishing a home - like classroom, as was suggested in Sociology. Fourteenth. A word to the wise is sufficient, to Miss Hollobaugh. Thus were we informed of an impending exam. Fifteenth. In order to save Miss Tyson ' s voice, we bequeath a record (made at our expense) entitled Open — Your — Mouth for use in all Oral Expression classes. This bequest should be very acceptable, unless times have changed since we were Juniors. Sixteenth. We will to the future chorus of Mr. Hausknecht our ability to sing, and our (well ' meaning if not effective) power of interpretation. Sei ' etiteenth. A pair of colored glasses to each member in the future classes of Miss Wilson, for protection against her piercing eyes (black). Eighteenth. We will to Miss Schriver the softest, downiest feather-bed, so that she can thankfully relax her aching bones to the fullest degree possible, especially after one of her demonstrations (unwilling) on the course of gravity. A(ineleenth. We cheerfully will all our excess bravery and fearlessness to future truants from class who must appear before Dean Ballou. We hope this item will be most bene- ficial and acceptable. Tu ' etitieth. To Miss Elliott ' s pupils the privilege of taking a geographical trip to any country they may so desire. Twenty-first. A good dose of boneset tea for those timid individuals who need it, before studying and analyzing worms, bugs, and insects in Miss Greenwood ' s classes. Twenty-second. We will to Prof. Dick a choice book of immortal love stories, with our best regards. Twenty-third. We bequeath to those students who follow under the supervision of Miss Raguse, 2-32 ' s skill in teaching. Tu;e7it)i ' ourth. To the day students who eat in the rest-room, we will a few mouse-traps and several new benches. Any other improvements would also be much appreciated. Twenty-fifth. To Miss Goshen, all our surplus detective ability, to aid her in dis- covering all delinquents from Chapel. May Heaven have mercy upon them! Twenty-sixth. Inasmuch as there are individual bequests, they are herein enumerated. We will and bequeath: Dot Smith ' s general popularity to Ethel Hughes. Harriet Liebson ' s petiteness to Anne Wilsbach . Jean GiUans long locks to K Orde. Margaret M. M. Meighan ' s pull to anyone lucky enough to get it. Helen Copley s power of elocution to Hilda MahafFey.

In the lobby of the hotel, friends could be seen waiting expectantly for further arrivals, and then, after the meeting, every- one was whisked up to the ballroom which was devoted to the Normal School. Here under the brilliant lights were familiar faces as well as un- familiar ones, and the Bellevue-Stratford framed a gorgeous setting for the beautifully gowned girls and women. The banquet began at 6.3,0, and everyone was ushered into the dining-hall to the strains of music. The menu served was delicious, the orchestra played familiar tunes, and between courses the diners sang. The toastmaster, Mr. Walter E. Dengler of the Pierce Business College, introduced the first speaker of the evening, Dr. Smith, who gave a very interesting account ot the happenings at Normal School to the graduates. Then, led by Prof. Hausknecht, everyone rose and sang the Alma Mater song. The ne.xt address was given by Dr. Norman C. Cameron, Super- intendent of the Pottstown Public Schools, who told ot his con- nections with this school and who also commended the late Dr. Philips very highly. Following this. Miss Schmidt sang some delightful numbers and then the principal address of the evening was given by Hon. Francis B. Haas, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, who talked ot the value of this school as a teachers ' training institution. He paid a great tribute to our school and those connected with it. After this address the Seniors danced the minuet, much to the delight of the audience. This was the concluding number on the pro- gram and then dancing continued until midnight. All during the evening enthusiastic Alumni members kept meeting friends, and the Seniors were then and there filled with a desire to return the next year so that they could meet old friends also. Yes, this great event that we have looked forward to during the school life is over, but we all carry away happy memories and then, you know, there is next year to look forward to. Blanche O. Moore THE WASHINGTON RECEPTION THE Washington Reception, held in the Library of the West Chester Normal School, is one of the traditional features of the school. This year, as in other years, it was a most charming affair. The Seniors, who represented the Colonial characters, pre- sented a lovely picture as, with slow measured tread, they de- scended the broad steps leading into the rotunda ot the library. The stately Minuet was danced in the center of the room. The countenances of the dignified gentlemen melted per- ceptibly as their lovely ladies archly cast sly and charming glances upon them. Lovely indeed were their costumes — the powdered wigs and the velvet knickerbockers ot the gentlemen, the full skirts and tight bodices of the much ' powdered ladies. The atmosphere of the old Colonial days pervaded the entire reception. The receiving-line, m addition to the members ot the taculty, contained a delightful surprise. Here were George and Martha Washington, Dolly Madison and her husband, Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jeiferson. These characters were most delightfully impersonated by the otficers of our Senior Class. After chatting a few moments with our Colonial triends, tea and cake were served. The girls who served, in their little Colonial caps and aprons, added much to the occasion. Miss Esther Gilbert entertained with two most charming vocal numbers. The occasion would hardly have been complete if our Esther had not offered us the opportunity of again hearing her voice. As twilight crept over the campus, we left the Library with the glad feeling that every February brings a renewal oi the happy occasion ot the Washington Reception. Elizabeth L. Brinton THE SENIOR HONOR ROLL THIS list of students represents the highest ten per cent of the graduating class of about 500 students. Although there is no other recognition than this printed here, it is usually referred to as the Honor Roll. It is necessary to have a separate list of the three-year students due to the extra year and the lack of a uniform standard of comparison. These groups are the Junior High School (Group III), Health Education (Group V), and Music Supervisors (Group VI). It will be seen from this that West Chester Normal School graduates students from at least six groups. The other groups are: Group I, the students specializing in elementary school teaching; Group II, those pre- paring for the intermediate grades; and Group IV, which prepares students for teaching in the rural schools. The points for rating were computed on the following basis : Number of A ' s X 95 X semester hours of credit. Number of B s X 85 X semester hours of credit. Number of C ' s X 75 X semester hours of credit. The following are the three students who have had the highest academic rating in their respective groups for the five of the six semesters work.

The Junior Class officers have tried to make this year a successful one in their endeavor to transact business in the best possible way for the good of the whole class. The opportunities for good work do not present themselves as often during the Class ' infancy as when it has had more experience in what its Alma Mater may expect of it. The different committees have all come up to a high standard of pro- ficiency in the work assigned to them, and we ardently hope that the com- mittees appointed for our Senior year will be as earnest in their endeavor to make our Class one to be proud of. Class of 1927, get ready for knighthood! Put on your armament of fellowship, your helmet of intellect, your steel leggings of speed, your gloves of service, your color flag of a charming personality. With this equipment we will go in the quest of knowledge and fruitful experiences, never stopping until our goal is reached. te s Sophomores SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS President John Brinser Vice-Presicie7it . . . Norman Heintzleman Secretary Grace Hoopes Tredsurtr Anna Kulp IN|THE autumn of 1925, a new ship was sighted from the port of West Chester Normal School. Coming closer it was seen that the ship bore the numerals 28. This ship gave fine promise of living up to the high standards set by the other members of the fleet of W. C. S. N. S., so it, too, was allowed to dock. The crew was a heterogeneous one. It was composed of various groups: Music Sups (those specializing in the supervision of music); Health Eds ' (those specializing in physical work); and the Junior Highs (those specializing in Junior High School academic work). But this crew was without leaders — neither captain nor mates had been elected. The class was finally organized, albeit rather late in the season. Because of this fact, not much was accomplished in the way of social functions, but next year, acting as a nucleus for the Junior Class, great things are expected of ' 28. Perhaps great people, future m ' ventors, master musicians, painters, physical directors, athletic champions, school •prin- cipals and superintendents, will one day prove the worth of our Class. Who knows? And now to those who leave the port of W. C. S. N. S. the ship of 28 fires a salute — not the salute as to those who have gone to Davy Jones ' Locker — but the salute of victory well won and a God Speed for unknown seas.

The Moore Anniversary, held on October 17, left with us a vivid memory of one of the most delightful occasions of the school year. Mr. John A. Kinneman, Chairman ot the Anniversary Committee, procured for this occasion Mme. Merle Alcock, opera star of international fame. After the concert, a dance in the Gym made an effective end to a perfect day ' ' for Moore. The skilful efforts of Miss Lillian Crane, the unusual character of its plot, and the superior talents of the participants, combined in making for the singular success of the ' ' Imiginary Invalid. Our various officers and executive committee should be duly credited for having made the numerous programs both entertaining and profitable. The debating teams were greatly encouraged by the unusual interest manifested by the student body. The responses toward debates proved that the general interest of our students is for entertainment of educational value. It is with this thought that we can leave Moore to its new com ' ing officers, knowing that it is promised always a fuller and richer future. MOORE RALLY SONG Come and sing, all ye true and loyal Moores; Come and give a rousing cheer, Join our song as we gaily march along. With hearts that have no fear. Firm and loyal, with the garnet ' neath the gold, We will march with loyal might. So everybody shout and sing. For, Moores, we are sure all right.

[154] THE IMAGINARY INVALID FOR weeks we had waited for the Moore play, looking forward to it with greatest enthusiasm and anticipation. How glad we were that we had waited, for it was one of the most successful plays ever presented to the student body. The Imag- inary Invalid appealed to us because of the unusual charm and grace of the seventeenth century which was so ably portrayed by the characters. Who could ever forget Argan, the imaginary invalid, interpreted by Harold Andrews. Then there was dainty Angelique, who was none other than Annette Noon. What an intriguing love affair wove itself around Angelique and Cleante, otherwise known as Burnice Jarman. All other members of the cast supported the three leading characters with great ability, and helped make the play the success that it was. Too much credit cannot be given Miss Lillian Crone who gave so much time and etfort in producing the play. CAST OF CHARACTERS (In order of appearance) Argan, the imaginary invalid Harold K.

Its sparkling rays signify the spirit of youth which is the essence of en- thusiasm and doing. So increased has the Society become in numbers that it needs a division to reveal the in- dividual talent within the mass. Nevertheless, ' ' Kempy ' ' proved a successful opening for the school year of 1925-26. The characters were neatly chosen and are in position to receive high commendation for their cooperative acting throughout the play. In choosing the officers of the year, it was our aim to bring the most efficient members into this position of honor. Glance at the list to verify this statement. Considering the week-end trips the girls enjoy, our meetings have been well attended and a delight to the audience. We do especially praise the work of the curators who made such entertainment possible. One cannot forget the loyal debaters in their earnest attempts of sane ar- gument. It takes a brave and noble heart plus a sure and steady brain to stand before the critic ' s penetrating eye. Variety! Music, Dramatics, Literature, Debates, Dancing, and all that lends to the joy of living, is the proof of the Aryan Crown.

C A. has closed another very eventful and successful year. Under its efficient leader and loyal advisors, the organisation had a membership much larger than that of any previous year and accomplished many worth-while things. During the summer of 1925 ten girls from West Chester, the highest number of repre- sentatives ever sent from here, attended the Sectional Conference at Eagles Mere. There they received much inspiration and formed many plans for the coming year, as has been evidenced throughout their term ot office. The first Y. W. Handbook was published by this Cabinet. Each prospective new student received a copy of it during the summer, accompanied by a letter of welcome. Juniors must remember those — and the blue bows, too! The Y girls, dressed m white, were on hand to help the new student during the first few days of the school term. An original playlet, entitled The Call of the ' Y, was presented by some of the Cabinet girls at the first Thursday evening meeting. Interesting, profitable meetings were held once every week during the year. Many of these were devoted to discussions of every-day prob- lems, the topics being selected by the students who attended. Some of the meetings were followed by a social get together. Three very interesting meetings were arranged by the World Fellowship Committee, the climax being the pageant Christ in America. This Committee was also responsible for the Student Fellowship Fund Drive. Great pains were taken to secure some outstanding speakers. This resulted in having such men as, Adam Giebel, Dr. Kelley, Mr. Van Dusen, Pat Malin, Dr. Howard Smith, Mr. Snow, Dr. Spalding, Rev. Rittenhouse Neisser, and Rev. Luther address the joint meet- ings of the Y. W. and the Y. At several of these meetings a choir was formed to render special music. Visits to the Juniors who lived out in the town were made by members of the Cabinet under the guise of Pop Calls. This is only a part of the social side o life which the Y. W. has taken up. The reception to the new students was given in the Gym early in September with a varied program of stunts, games, dancing, and refreshments. Many hikers will always remember the gypsy trail inaugurated for the first time this year. Not only was the Association concerned with the activities of West Chester, but it also kept in touch with other schools and colleges through the various conferences. Sixteen girls were sent to these conferences during the school term. Two of them were held at the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania, one at Princeton, and one at Shippensburg Normal. Nor were missions forgotten, for the Committee of Systematic Giving raised $162.60 to be sent to South America. The Social Service Club deserves much credit for its work. Flowers were sent to the sick students and faculty members, Christmas stockings made and given to poor children, and a party arranged for the employees of the school. This Club also conducted the Japanese Bazaar to raise money for the advancement of the Y. W. program. The Y. W. was also influential in bringing Miss Margaret Walz, of Philadelphia, to give a demonstration of correct ballroom dancing. Perhaps one of the most difficult tasks undertaken by the Association was the raising of $1,000 for the Philips Memorial Chapel. Early in March new officers were nominated, later elected, and the remainder of the Cabinet chosen for 1927. In April, installation, with its majesty and solemnity, was held m the Chapel. The new Cabinet members are splendid workers and will do all m their power to continue the fine work of the Y. W. C. A. as a long-founded organization in this ' school and will endeavor to: F0 0U ' , jollow, jollow the gleam Of the light that shall bring the Daicn. THE Y. M. C. A. CABINET President Wallace R.

Dr. Charles W. Heathcote THE Y. M. C. A. AND ITS WORK WHEN the Y Cabinet tor 1925-26 met for the first time after the opening of the school term, they prepared a program designed to meet the approval of every man and to win new enthusiasts in favor of the organization on the campus. Having attended an Officers ' Convention held in Lancaster in May of 1925, the Cabinet had a good idea of a most effective program to be put into operation. A great success-contributing factor was the fact that the President and Vice-President had attended the annual ' ' Y Officers Con- vention held at Silver Bay, on Lake George, during the summer and were eager to put their new ideas into operation as successful plans. Much interest was shown in the ' Y, and the men were called out twice during the year for a general Get-together ' ' and Stag Party. The first party was held in the fall, and after greatly enjoying an amusing variety program, the height of the occasion was ushered into the room in the form of cider and pretzels to which every man did justice. In a short time the Membership Committee launched its campaign throughout Wayne Hall, and it resulted in the enrollment of a majority of the fellows. We are very grateful to the new members for their support and cooperation in helping make the Y a worth-while organization. Shortly after the beginning of the second semester, the men of Wayne Hall again turned out for a Stag Party, equally as successful as the first. A large number took an active part in the program, which was followed by an almost inexhaustible supply of ice-cream and pretzels. In the matter of securing good speakers, the Y was especially for- tunate. Men of a caliber heretofore foreign to Y. M. C. A. meetings ad- dressed large joint assemblies. Members ot the faculty and local ministers rendered most valuable service during the year, and to them the Y is deeply indebted. The faculty advisor, Dr. Heathcote, was responsible and instrumental for much of the year ' s accomplishments, and much of the success of the Y in 1925-26 was due to his untiring efforts. t B= James M.

The size of the paper was dif ' ferent. There were four pages instead of eight. Columns were five to a page and of newspaper width instead of three wide columns as before. The type was smaller. Most at ' tractive of all, the new heading ' cut replaced the type head- ing at the top of the front page. Most important of all, The Green Stone was now a weekly publication. The staff was enlarged to twenty-five members, and only four of this number were veterans of the year before. Three new departments were created, the Art, the Alumni, and the Clubs. The contributions from these departments warrant the r being made permanent otfices. Another big innovation was The Green Stone Anniversary. The staff decided to celebrate this event in an elaborate manner. Ex- Green-Stoners, the staff, and friends of the paper made merry at a sumptuous banquet on the night of February 6. The banquet was followed by The Green Stone Concert. Ernest Davis, a tenor artist, was secured for this occasion and furnished a most delightful evening. The social hour in the lobby climaxed a day that will ever remain dear to Green Stone members. The Green Stone Short Story Contest was viewed with interest by the entire student body. The banquet at the end of the year marked the close of the careers of fifteen Senior staff members. - ' ■ -- KATHERINE EGAN KATHRYN NOLL THE SOUL OF MUSIC A LWAYS in our memory shall stand the name of Kathryn Noll — a name which we AA shall cherish as Time goes on. Our K is destined to a path of fame. The charm Ji. JL of her personality and the rich depth of feeling in her voice is a combination which any singer might be proud ot. Closely associated with the name of K Noll comes that of Katherine Egan. Miss Egan is a pianist of great ability, having produced several compositions of her own. We never think of these two young ladies without thinking of two other talented personages — namely, Esther Gilbert and Larry Ginter. Miss Gilbert possesses a soprano voice of great sweetness, the quality of which is very unusual. She has entertained us several times by appearing as soloist in Holy Night. We shall never forget her. Larry Ginte ' , has made a name for himself, through hi qualities as the director of Ginter ' s Orchestra. Mr. Ginter ' s voice is a rich baritone. His solo work n the Land of the Heart ' s Desire will be something we shall always remember. To say that West Chester Norma! is proud to possess such people as these four talented young folks, is expressing it but slightly. We feel confident that in the years to come each one of them will have endeared them- selves, through their musical talent, to the thousands of enchanted listeners they will have. And now. Miss Noll and Miss Egan, together with Miss Gilbert and Mr. Ginter, we bid you Au Revoir and trust that you will never forget your Alma Mater and her many children. Elizabeth L.

Ethel Jones Secretary Margaret Williams Treasurer Emma Sidle William Haxton Mildred John Frank Mazzur THE Herodotus Club, a new history club, was organised in the fall under the sponsor- ship ot Dr. Heathcote. Both membership and enthusiasm have increased all year. The Club was named after Herodotus, the father of all historians, and has dealt mainly in a scientific discussion of historical material. The Executive Committee, as planned by the Club, was a governing body made up of the officers and three additional members. This Committee has been the instrument re- sponsible for the selection of the programs which have made our meetings so interesting and worthwhile. Our discussions have led us from a study of the Russian economic situation to King Tut ' s tomb and back again to a survey of the English monopoly on rubber, all of which topics have been selected by the members of the Club and submitted to the Executive Committee for their approval. These subjects have been presented by individual members and have been handled in a most scientific manner, combined with prolonged and detailed discussion by the Club as a whole. Dr. Heathcote has contributed his opinion frequently when nec- essary and when called upon has addressed the Club on several topics. The members of this year ' s Club, all of whom have enioyed the work and the many inter- esting meetings, are looking forward to a better and bigger year for the Herodotus Club of ' 27, and extend their sincerest wishes for great success and prosperity. li! |H,8 1 HAIL TO THE NORMAL SCHOOL Tune — Russian Rational Hymn Hail to the Normal School, noble and strong, To thee with loyal hearts we raise our song.

What could be more appropriate than Larry Ginter ' s Orchestra and pink ice-cream bricks? Some of us discovered the new Oriole Tearoom. Um — such pie! The first public meeting of the Moore Society was held. Quentin Chaffee, the new President, gave a very inspiring inaugural speech entitled Not Understood. We were proud and happy to learn today that Kay Noll won the first National Prize. We just knew she would with her rich and glorious contralto voice! Some of our Senior Y girls made Pop calls on the new Juniors today. (Poor things! Some of them look as though they need a friendly word.) Our first Sunday this year at W. C. ! We were too busy to be homesick — besides, we must not torget that we are Seniors. Y Membership Drive began. Dear old Humpty — will we ever forget how hard you worked for Y ' Coach MacGovern hero of the hour! He rescued the Misses Goshen, Baker, and Lutyen from half- hour imprisonment in Recitation Hall — no. Juniors, it was after classes were over. Cunny, Kotch and Gang tried to re-organme their suite of last year but someone (?) got wise. One m a bed is much better than ten on a floor — what? Uncle Ned seated us in Chapel. Of course, there was great contusion among the Juniors in the heights and poor Bill Hamel had to fall off his chair in the first row while craning his neck for a glimpse of his new Smash up in the Balcony. No. Juniors, a Smash is not like a Ford — it ' s a she. The Y. M. had a Pretzel and Cider Party over in Wayne Hall. You ' d be surprised at all the jokes the Faculty know. It might have been the cider — hut a good time was had by all, es- pecially Mr. Kinneman. And what is so rare as a Society Play Alter a mad rush for seats and before some of us had ceased panting we witnessed one of the best plays of the year. Aryan might well be lauded, for Kempy was just adorable (to quote a certain Schenkmeyer person). Weren ' t Dot Bear and Ben and the rest of the cast just perfect? After seeing Kempy, the Juniors (and a few Seniors) decided to stay for the year. Bible Class opened this morning, and it looks as though Dr. Heathcote will have a large class this year.

Mrs. Smith has gre.atly influenced the spiritual side of our school-life and we will always remember her as the charming First Lady of our Alma Mater. Friday 16. Weren ' t the Faculty Plays wonderful? Miss Crane is a marvel! She transformed our serious faculty to everything from love-sick florists to clever jewel thieves. As for Klesh, wasn ' t she — er — he rawther ritjy? Saturday 17. We lost to East Stroudsburg at the Moore Debates. (Jimmie Brennan, however, didn ' t lose a minute — in fact he discovered something very nice — You tell ' em Jimmie.) An eye for an eye, a tooth for — well, we won the first baseball game ot the season over the Hill School today with a score of 10-2. Sunday 18. Henry P. Van Dusen spoke at Y this evening. Spring is coming, but oh, how cold it is right now! Monday ig. The great outdoors were thrown open to us this evening until the awfully late hour of seven. A group of students interested in poetry journeyed over to Havertord College to hear Vachel Lindsay, the poet. You can bet your roomie ' s best hat that Emma Sidle was there, weren ' t you Emma? Tuesday 10. The Noll-Egan Recital this evening was indeed a most artistic success. Both Kay and Kitty looked adorable. Wednesday 21. Some of the people on Third Floor North are fully convinced by now that Peg Foley is the phonograph ' s only rival. She ' s a good sport though, and lots of tun, so run along, Victor, Col- umbia ' s calling you. Kathenne Throne received a letter from her brother C) today. Why blush, K. T.? Thursday 22. Wonder why Rose Filigno wears that haunted look whenever we see her in Helen Murray ' s room? No, Rose, there are no bogey men in these secluded halls. Friday 21,. Miss Schmidt ' s Sr. Glee Club and students of our Piano Department gave a recital this evening which was greatly enjoyed by all of us. Jane Lavelle remarked today that she certainly did enjoy Petey Chen and Casey Wu ' s (two Chinese students from Princeton) talk in chapel today. What part of Ireland did you say they came from, Jane? Saturday 24. Moore had a very short meeting this evening. You might know that Kotch and Laura would suddenly rush out to clo e their windows when the raindrops began to fall outdoors. Some people do have a very keen sense of hearing. 97 181 I Sunday 2?. Monday 26. Tuesday 27. Wednesday 28. Thursday 29. Friday 30. Saturday I Sunday 2 Monday ?

(He is awfully cute, Dot. ) We were very sad to learn today that Miss McCarthy is ill at the Chester County Hospital. We hope she will recover and return to us soon. Mr. Thomas Harrison, a favorite speaker of ours, visited West Chester again this morning. We were so enthused by his message that an Open Forum was held this afternoon. Can you imagine that Murphy child — Annis, by the way — substituting in the Kindergarten? Yes, and some of the children thought she was a new little girl. George Dunkle and Walter Liggett told us about Luther Burbank in Chapel today. Such scurring and primping! That ' s right, the Junior Prom is tomorrow night! Doc Lewis spoke to the girls at Y this evening. His topic was The Game of Life. The Junior Prom! Here at last! We must hand it to you Juniors, it was a very successful affair. Ye old gates were heavily guarded as each princess in turn tried to go forth into the outer world in search of food. And so it came to pass that they each m turn returned to their rooms chagrined and hungry, eagerly waiting for the morn, when something in the way of food would be theirs. MAY May Day brought forth a very enjoyable program at Aryan tonight. Henry Soltys was inaugurated President. (Didn ' t you think the Dissinger-Bales number was cute?) The Y ' s had a unique and interesting open-air meeting on the South Campus grounds this evening. Uncle Ned led the vesper service and we had a very interesting time. Track began today for the girls. Music Week opened with a MacDowell Piano and Song Recital which was given this evening by students of the Music Department. A new Grace was taught to us today in Chapel. The composer ot the music (none other than our own Jessie Gibert), and Dr. Kerlin, composer of the words, were given an ovation. The new Campus History Club was just organiied. We might whisper to you that Mr. Kinneman was responsible for this. The Fifth Annual Spring Concert was given by the Junior Glee Club and the Supervisors ' Choruses. We will always remember the beautiful ensemble singing heard at this last choral recital. Six of our Y. M. Cabinet members for next year journeyed to Lebanon Valley today to attend a Y conference. One of the Juniors on Ruth Hess ' s Hall caught her studying today. Kiddies, kiddies everywhere! The Chester County Play Festival took place today. By 6 o ' clock our campus looked as though they all had a good time. Pat Malm was a most welcome visitor at Y this evening. He spoke about our Life Work. ' ' Kitty Knepper received a nice little lecture on tardiness today from Jim Schriver. Kleckner forgot to give Sara Rodeback her CoatesviUe tickets today. Did she have to walk, Joe? The Music Faculty entertained us at their Annual Hour of Music this evening. The Aryan Reunion was most successful, especially The Merrie Monarch. Can you imagine Marian Haines at the dance with a real cake-eater? Shocking! Emmy Lou Sidle was out canoeing on the Brandywine today with — ? — . Miss America Hodge made a very dramatic entrance into upper chapel during the Senior play rehearsal tonight. Poor Ben certainly was upset by it. Esther Gilbert gave a wonderful recital this evening to an enthusiastic audience. With her beauty and her thrilling voice we know Esther will be heard from some day. Suspicious! B ubbles Maurer appeared today with a certain Brown ring on her finger. That ' s not all. Tommy Alexander walked home with Catherine Smith last night from choir rehearsal. We never knew until today that the reason why John Bracken has seen so much of the world is because he used to run a trolley near GallaghersviUe. The Juniors wept as they packed their trunks today. How do they think we ieeV Only about one more week before Commencement! Are we ready to leave these noble Halls of Learning? JUNE The Senior Class presented Disraeli as their annual play this evening. The Juniors departed today to prepare for the burden that will be theirs next year. It was good to see some of the Alumni back today. We have the honor of being the last class to hold its Baccalaureate Service in the old Chapel. Class Day! The time is almost near when we shall part, but let us enjoy these last few hours together to our utmost. Commencement! No, we are not sad. For ' tis only the beginning, and we will proudly go forth to conquer the world with the name of our Alma Mater on our lips. I M [182] bL ' ' Es B fflri MiWinii iiijniiliw Music ; sf Bi Tg q ADVANCED CHORUS OF MUSIC SUPERVISORS The Soul of Music slumbers in the shell Till waked and kindled by the masters ' spell; And feeling hearts — touch them but lightly — pour A thousand melodies unheard before! SOME of the happiest hours of our Normal life were spent in Chorus; under the masters ' spell, or, in other words under Uncle Ned ' s artistic and inspiring leader- ship, we feel that we have had more than our share of the good things that come in a life-time. There are really two distinct organizations: the Advanced Chorus, made up of Senior and Junior Supervisors and the Junior Chorus, which includes the Sophomore Supervisors. This year we made our first appearance at the Christmas carol service; I need say no more because just the mere allusion to it will recall this impressive service to your minds. Our next appearance was in Chapel in the giving of a Stephen Collins Foster, program. You know, Foster wrote many of the favorite songs of America. Can you forget how much you enjoyed Old Black Joe ? Who sang it? Why no one could sing it as our Kate did. And then Old Dog Tray by Esther Gilbert was enjoyed equally as well. How did you like our quartet, Esther Gilbert, Kathryn Noll, Larry Ginter, and Amnos Evans? We think they can ' t be beat. At this writing we have not yet given our Spring Concert, but that makes it all the more interesting for me because I can let you in on a secret. Do you know that you ' re going to get the treat of your life? Do you know that we have never worked with such concentrated energy as we have for this Concert? This program must be the best ever. Just listen as I review the program for you: Marcheta, In a Bed of Brown Leaves, Glory of the Dawn (you can really see the sun rise); the negro spirituals, with Larry Ginter singing the solo part of I ain ' t Gwine Study War No More, King Jesus is a Listening with Amnos Evans as soloist, and Swing Low, sung by Kathryn Noll — why just that number makes the whole thing worth while. The last group of songs, Elegy, ' by Massenet, To Spring, by Grieg, The Swan, by St. ' Saens, and Love the Pedlar by Edward German, closes a program which was arranged for your pleasure. Did you know that as a means of furthering our education we are given the privilege of purchasing tickets for the World ' s Famous Artists ' Concerts. The Coatesville, Candy Kitchens were especially pleased when we visited the fair city. This year we heard Carmen m English with a symphonic orchestra, chorus and ballet; Cleveland Symphony Orchestra with Nikolai Sokoloff conducting; Marie Tiffany (we met her after the concert) of the Metropolitan Opera Company; New York String Quartet with William Bachus as solo pianist. We may hear these artists again, but never under the same happy circumstances. Doesn ' t it just make you feel a wee bit sorry that you ' re not a Music Supervisor when you read and see the results of the work we are doing? For example, don ' t you wish you might have heard what the wild waves were saying at Atlantic City? All good things must end, so they say, and so it is with our sojourn here at school. Juniors, may you g;t much from your remaining days at school and Sophomores may you get twice as much.

Dr. Smith read a list of the girls who had won Junior Glee Club member- ship. With Miss Gertrude Schmidt as directress and Mary Sellen as accompanist, the Club was organized and the work, which prom- ised to be both enjoyable and profitable, began at once. The success of our first public appearance at the annual Christ- mas carol services was due to the enthusiastic spirit prevailing in the Club and Miss Schmidt ' s exceptional ability in directing. The success of our next appearance was a continuation of the first. During Music Week, we gave our Spring Concert and were praised highly for its effectiveness and completeness. In September, 1925, we were inexpressibly glad and proud to resume our efforts under the skilful guidance of Miss Schmidt. Although we had been separated for a few months. Miss Schmidt ' s training of the previous year was quickly recalled, and we again began zealously to enjoy Glee Club rehearsals. The carol services this year were again a success. Our appear- ance in Moore Society proved a stepping-stone to fame. Such successes instilled within us a desire to do even better. Our last but greatest work was the cantata, The Land of Heart ' s Desire by Nevin, given at the Spring Concert in April. Mr. Law- rence Ginter, the school ' s well-known baritone, was the soloist. It proved to be a very worthwhile concert, well befitting our fare- well appearance before the students of W. C. S. N. S. All aboard! All aboard! Reluctantly we again board our train which takes us on our life ' s journey. It is the will of Father Time that we bring to a close our two-year ' ' stop-off at W. C. S. N. S. and resume our journey through life. Before pulling out from this never-to-be-forgotten station of our Life ' s Way, we wish to extend our thanks and appreciation to our very able directress, Miss Schmidt, to our accompanist, Mary Sellen, and to our soloist, Mr. Ginter. May all of Miss Schmidt ' s Glee Clubs have the same success and enjoyment that we have had in our Club work. MEMBERS OF THE JUNIOR GIRLS GLEE CLUB Directress Miss Marie M.

Every Tuesday afternoon you can hear the harmonious strains of our lovely songs, floating out from the windows of C ' 7 to all parts of the school campus. Our Club was organized several weeks after the opening of Normal in September, and it was not long before we got right down to business and dug in. But how would we ever have managed to succeed if our able leader. Miss Heinemann, had not been with us to lead and direct us? Miss Heinemann has been most patient with us and has given a great deal of her time to our Club. She has made our rehearsals enjoyable as well as beneficial. The first thing we had to dig at were the Christmas Carols. Of course, you haven ' t forgotten this most impressive event when the girls marched down the aisles of the darkened Chapel, singing the lovely Carol, Oh, Come All Ye Faithful, clad in white dresses and carrying lighted candles. The Junior Glee Club made its appearance at the beginning of the program. Two songs were given, namely, ' ' Nazareth and The Golden Carol. We had spent much time and effort on these two lovely songs because it was our wish to present them in a most artistic manner, so that we, on our first public appearance, would be a credit to our able directress. Then came the busiest time of all, the preparation for the Spring Concert. The costumes had to be decided upon and the songs had to be rehearsed time and time again. The program was opened with Salutation by Gaines, which took us to a rarer atmosphere, where beautiful music always carries us. Then came The Desert Song which took our audience to the realms where the sheiks hold sway. This was followed by Sleepy Time which was a soothing lullaby. Three other songs were also given, last of which was Chick-ee-dee which greatly delighted the listeners. The success which has been ours and which we hope will be ours in the future can only be attributed to the splendid cooperation of the girls in their work, inspired by the guidance of Miss Heinemann. fe MEMBERS OF THE NORMAL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA Conductor Edward Zimmer.

Egan Avanelle Maze Percussion Charles L. Brown Maurice Foulke James C. Mack Librarian Henry A. Soltys INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC OF THE SCHOOL Two of the foremost of extra-curricular activities m this institution are the Normal Symphony Orchestra and the Normal Band. Students participating in these two school activities are given no credits — though they would be welcomed — by the State Board of Education. However, no such credits are necessary for good work in this organization. Love of the beautiful m music and the experience and joy of playing ensemble are considered beneficial diversion, and hence sufficient enticement. Can a good thing be made better? Those who heard only one public performance of the orchestra, or even only a rehearsal of same last year, unanimously proclaimed it as a good school symphony orchestra. This organization of the West Chester State Normal School — the Symphony Orchestra — is better, this year than ever before. Prof. Edward Zimmer, Jr., is the conductor, and a very able one at that. One of the requisites for a good conductor of a symphony orchestra is to be able to put across his ideas about how the thing is to be played, and what means could better be used than to have a conductor step off his perch and play the instrument as he desires it to be played. This is Prof. Edward Zimmer, Jr., to a T. During our working under his baton for three years, we all agree that he commands a fine technique of every instrument in the orchestra, and, with only about three exceptions, our Orchestra contains all instruments in use by all the foremost symphony orchestras in the world. Conductor Zimmer is constantly experimenting with this group of young people; he is now using the most modern seating, the Stokowski Plan, ' and this proved a very successful experiment indeed. According to the infallable opinion of Conductor Zimmer, this Orchestra contains an almost perfect balance of instruments this year. This is a valuable asset to an orchestra. It has been, and still is, a custom of Conductor Zimmer to invite a few non-students from West Chester to assist m the best interest of this orchestra, to maintain a high standard of performance. These men were invited because they were reputed to be very good musicians. This year, however, there was little necessity for using these non-students in this orchestra, as we have players of a high rank. Our membership this year is forty-five. The standard of the music used this year has been greatly raised, both m difficulty and class. The following list of compositions : Pomp and Circumstance — Elgar. Andante Religiosa — Goltermann. Reverie — Acciani. Novelette — Galazonouw. Coronation March (from the opera The Prophet ) — Meyerbeer. Adagio Pathetique — Godard. Song of India (from Sadko ) — R ms y, Korsa}{ov. Songs from Shakespeare ' s Time — Tr. and Arr. — Borch. Indian Lament — A7it07i Dvorak,. And a number of others. Orchestra rehearsals are held once each week. They terminate with a concert worthy of being heard by the best music critics. This great event is held during Music Week in May. This year ' s concert will include the following program: Coronation March, Song of India, Indian Lament, Novelette, Adagio Pathetique, and Pomp and Circumstance. Another activity of great interest to the participants and the student body is the Normal Band, which numbers about twenty-five young people of the school. This band has been a successful means of urging our athletic teams on to victory. In the balmy evenings of spring, several concerts are given on the campus. Last fall our Band accompanied our team to the Shippensburg football game. This was an all-day trip and was made in luxuriously furnished motor buses. It was an event that will be remembered forever by those who made the trip — especially the stop made at Camp Hill on the way up. Another trip was made to Kennett Square in the spring and an enjoyable concert was given there. Here ' s wishing all success to our conductor. Prof. Edward Zimmer, Jr., and to the Band and Orchestra. Henry A. Soltys I ' - r ' B-ii Twwr FOOTBALL, 1 92 5 A SLOW start but a good finish is the best example ot ability. Football practice at West Chester was delayed almost a week, but when the first call for candidates went out, there was a hearty response. All other schools had the advantage of at least a week ' s practice — but did we come through? Watch our record! Losing only four of last year ' s men, there were not many vacancies to be filled, though there was much and good material to fill them and plenty left for alternates and supports. To secure a center was our biggest problem, and it seems it was solved. Coach MacGovern, with his eagle eye, soon had a well-trained squad ready for business. Onto the stage comes the handsome bunch, decked out in jackets of yellow, the Coach IS the Director, and Royer the Property man and Manager. The principals in this setting start off, watch them fight! They are coming through. October 3, The first string men journeyed to Pennington Seminary, N.J, where the natives were given a treat. Coach MacGoverns Yellow Jackets ran onto the field. It has been said that the color helped support the team. Be that as it may, we came home with the ball, victorious. Score, 34-0. October 10 Bloomsburg at West Chester, the first home game of the season, made quite a hit. It was a thriller from beginning to end. This was the game which opened relations with Bloomsburg Normal. Glad to relate, Bloom went home carrying the short end of the score, ij-o. October 17 An old rival, Williamson School, was our next victim. The Yellow Jackets displayed their makings, and only twice Williamson came near to our goal, but not under it. Score, 250. October 23 Haverford Junior Varsity now loomed up; the strongest team of the season went to combat with our Yellow Jackets. It was a hard-fought battle. However, thumbs down for Haverford. Score, 20 o. October jo Shippensburg! That was the big day, and what hadn ' t we planned to do to that bunch! About — bus loads of rooters and supporters went with the team. The biggest game of the season was not so big. The Yellow Jackets outplayed Shippensburg in every way. West Chester having 14 downs to Shippensburg ' s 3. On the referee ' s decision, the score was called 6 o in Shippensburg ' s favor. However, when taken to the Central Board, It was ruled 0-0. We challenged Shippensburg to play the game over on neutral grounds with Central Board Officials. Shippensburg made a wise choice and never answered the challenge. O, if they only had! Score, 0-0. November 7 The Nemesis! Muhlenberg Frosh were the first and only team to cross the line of the Yellow Jackets. Everything seemed to be against West Chester, the time of the game being cut down 10 minutes, lessening our chances. The score at half time was iq o. Second half was only 14 minutes, but in this time we piled up quickly 14 points. A few minutes more to play and at the rate and speed we were going. West Chester would have won. Final Score, 19-14. November 14 Millersville was the last game of this season, an old but friendly rival. We must com- mend Millersville on their spirit, it was wonderful! When for a certainty they knew West Chester was too much for them, and we were piling up points, Millersville kept up their encouragement of the team. It was a hard-fought game, and West Chester was the better team. The final whistle blew and it all ended with 76 o for W. C. The Millersville game was a fitting close to a very successful season. Again West Chester had a firm hold on the State Championship of Normal School. West Chester ! ( ff R E 1 - V JV 1 i Wk i Sh W VARSITY BASKETBALL, 1 92 5-26 J. F. MacGovern .... Coach J.

The Varsity started the season off by losing a hard-fought game to Philadelphia Normal, and on the northern trip they lost to Bloomsburg and also to St. Thomas College by the close score ot 22-20. The last game that was lost was to our old rivals, Shippensburg. After leading the Shippens- burg five tor three periods. Coach MacGovern ' s boys collapsed and Shippensburg romped home the winner. After losing these games, Coach MacGovern tormed a new quintet. This new five then defeated Kutztown and then beat Bloomsburg for their first defeat. Millersville tell twice before the Purple and Gold. Williamson Trade was the next victim, although they battled evenly for three-fourths the game. With all depending on the outcome of the Shippensburg game for the championship, West Chester traveled to the Cumberland Valley institute, and after being outplayed tor half the game, came from behind and tied the score and in the extra five minute period, they went ahead to win by five points. West Chester finished the season with a victory over Kutztown at home. Thus, the 1925-26 edition ot West Chester ' s basketiers ended another successtul season. The success of the season is due largely to our Coach, Mr. MacGovern, who after working with various combinations and after losing tour games brought a team to a championship. Too much praise cannot be given to him. The boys who composed the team that carried the Purple and Gold to a championship are: Hub Rathy, center; George Roscoe, forward; Ned Hopkins, forward; Johnny Dalton, guard; Doc Ellis, guard; while others who played in various games are Jack Greising, guard; Slim Wiedner, center; Pete Troxell, forward. None ot the regulars are lost by graduation, and with the men who have substituted and played with the Junior Varsity, West Chester should enjoy the best season that she has ever seen on the basketball court next year. Here is wishing Normal a successtul season next year and in all succeeding years. te (107 1 JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL, 1925-26 Coach J- F. MacGovern Manager J. Paul Royer Captain Fred.

V. . . . i 26 s THE JAY VEE ' S THE Jay Vee ' s Basketball season, although short, was most successful, as only one game was lost, and that to the Alumni team, the strong combination which held the State Championship the past two years. The Jay Vee ' s, as you all know, are the boys who make the Varsity teams in all sports. They report at every practice and fight hard to help make those men on the Varsity do their stuff so that the Varsity will be a winning combination. The Jay Vee s take practically all the blows and receive nothing for their labors. They are never given credit for making the Varsity team, for without a good Junior Varsity, the Varsity cannot achieve greatness. Here ' s hoping that some time in the near future the Jay Vee ' s will be recognized and given credit on par with that given to the Varsity. Although the Varsity had a successful season as well, the Junior Varsity got going toward a winning team long before the Varsity had its second wind. There was never a speedier bunch of players than this year ' s Scrubs. Several made the Varsity team before the season was over. Since most of the Varsity men will return next year, the Junior Varsity will, according to all predictions, have another winning aggregation and probably furnish some new material for the Varsity.

The squad this spring numbered about twenty-five men of which seven were letter men of last year ' s team — Rice and Jarmon, pitchers; Bowdle, catcher; Pearson (Captain) at first; Gnesing, left field: McNamara, center field; and Martin right field. The new men who have secured places on the team are Esworthy, pitcher, also the first man to have the first home-run of the season; Hopkins at second; Dalton at third; Butler at shortstop; Christopher, center field, and Rambo catcher. Our first game with Hill School at Pottstown gave promises of a wonderful team, defeating Hill School by the score of 10-2. Our next game, with Goldey Business College, the team that defeated us on our own field last year, proved quite a worrisome game, the final score being 8 6, West Chester favor. Franklin and Marshall Academy, the next in line, changed our course a bit. At the end of the seventh inning F. and M. had eight runs while West Chester had one. We rallied and the final score was 8-6 in favor of F. and M. Here ' s hoping the remainder of the season may be as successful as the beginning, thereby closing the sporting year. Here ' s for honorable mention to all the boys who reported for practice every night — Lewis, Mack, Weir, Bradley, Rathey, Kuharski, McGowan and Gibble. II THE TRACK SQUAD Cafitani, L. Herman Manager, H. A. Sharpless Coach, Dr. C. B. Lewis THE track schedule this year consists of a relay team entry in the Penn Relays, a dual meet with Indiana Normal, a meet with Phila- delphia Normal, m addition to the annual West Chester Normal Interscholastics. The team is also entered in the Delaware State College Interscholastics and the Perkiomen Meet. At the beginning of the season, twenty to twenty-five candidates for various positions of the track squad did indoor work m the Gymnasium. This was only until the track could be made better and the weather was more conducive to track- work. The Indiana Meet was won by the Indiana team by a close margin, while at the Philadelphia Normal Meet the West Chester team piled up points way ahead of the other contestants. Bennett and Corb have set new records for themselves m the running broad jump, while Stott and Ellis seem sure to carry off any shot-put honors. While no prediction can be made for the rest of the season, with Captain Herman, Trott, Crawford, Hockenberry, Jones, Hickey, and Corb on the track-work, and Bennett, McGonigle Troxell, Stott, and Ellis on the field-work, we hope to repeat the victories carried off by last year ' s team. THE VARSITY TRACK TEAM AND RELAY Captain Manager Coach . L. Herman H. A. Sharpless Dr. C. B. Lewis IN THE annual Penn Relay this year, April ijd and 24th, we entered a fine team in competition with the other Normal teams. But the odds were against us and resulted in a fourth place instead of a first as we had hoped for. Although the boys put all they had into the race, they could not stand the pace set for them by Indiana and Cheyney and Bloomsburg who carried off the first, second, and third places respectively. Next year the boys hope to retaliate with a win over the ones who defeated them this year. Those on the relay team are: Leroy Herman, John Crawford, I. Corb, Walter Trott. Loudon Hockenberrv and London Jones. TENNIS TEAM, 1 926 CM ' Captain-Manager . , Edward S. Murphy Coach |. F. McGovERN THIS season marks the third year of tennis as a letter sport at West Chester, and great progress and improvement have been made in that time. The last two seasons saw West Chester winning the majority of matches played against such teams as Pen- nington Seminary, Williamson Trade School, Reider College, and Philadelphia Normal. The prospects for this year are very promising, and a successful season is anticipated. With many good candidates to choose from, and an interesting schedule arranged, all efforts are being made to make this a third winning year. The team starts this season with two veterans of last year, namely. M urphy and Rathey, which makes a good beginning. Murphy has played the last two years and captains this year ' s squad. Rathey played a good game last year and looks good for another season. The squad consists of men of good tennis ability, and keen competition and rivalry are being shown in early practice. SCHEDULE May S. Williamson School (home). May 14. Reider College (home). May 15. Pennington Seminary (away). May 15. Alumni (home). May 22. Philadelphia Normal (home). RESUME OF THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF 1 926 Girls Participate in All Athletics SOMEHOW or other we cannot talk of our experiences here at W. C. S. N. S. without, sooner or later, referring to the gymnasium or the athletic field. This side of the school-life has been so full of good-natured fun and pure enjoyment that it stands out sharply against a background formed by the numerous other activities. The gym was one of the first buildings to meet our eyes when we first arrived on the campus. In spite of many other rivals, it has continued to hold that first place in the hearts of the majority of the Class of 1926. The fall of 1924 found the first group on the field for hockey practice. Most of these, with the exception of a few Junior High people, were more than green in this sport. However, m a short time eleven determined young ladies faced the Senior and Health Ed teams and gave a good account of themselves, and when the next hockey season came around this team, as Seniors, put up more than a good fight. For a time it looked as though they were going to defeat the all-powerful Health Eds. Indeed, the final game, as well as the one which was tied, was an example of some mighty fine hockey. Likewise, in basketball, volley ball, baseball, tennis, and swimming the Class of 1926 has exhibited some splendid talent. As Juniors, ' 26 captured both the tennis and swimming tournaments, thereby announcing to the school that it possessed some champion material. The girls ' track meets have been among the most prominent features of the athletic program. There is no doubt but that this year ' s meet will prove just as successful as the previous ones. Our recollections of volley ball practice will always be something like this: a gym, balls, nets, girls, and girls, and girls! It certainly did bring out a great bunch of them. One cannot give a review of the work done in this field without taking the gymnastic exhibitions into consideration. It was Miss Irene Horner who first put us through our paces on the gym floor. That memorable night of our first exhibition, when we realized for the first time what it really meant to be a part of that great system ! On March 12 the annual exhibition, with the Class of 1926 as Seniors, took place. It proved to be one of the best ever put on at West Chester. Along with the regular athletic and formal gym- nastic work, a fencing class has been conducted for the Health Eds. A short exhibition of this work was given the night of the Boys ' Indoor Track Meet. In closing we want to say Thank you to Miss Irene Horner, Mrs. Naomi George, and Miss Alice Schriver for the many, many things that they have done for us. It is our only hope that we can carry on the fine ideals that they have given us. Dorothy Guthrie Smith MISS ALICE C. SCHRIVER Senior Physical Education Instructor YES, indeed, this is our Jim! From the first moment that we heard her, Fall in! we fell, realizing that here was an individual who knew not only how to command our actions but our respect as well. We have enjoyed her classes beyond meas ' ure, have appreciated her wit and humor far more than we can ever explain, and have learned to admire her personality which is so outstanding. Would that we could have another year under her training ! Our very best to you, Jim!

K- COMPLIMENTS OF Ghe ellevue - Stratford PHILADELPHIA - m The five fearless chemists of Wayne Hall, after months of research work, are now prepared to contribute their findings to the good of mankind. The contributions in order of their importance are : 1 . A simple process of diluting water. 2. How to raise canaries from canary seed. J. How the element of spring enters into the milk. 4. A hitherto unknown species of the Jibulyan humbug. 5. A way of getting rid of the seven years itch — by scratching it out in five. [232] m ■i.=. 5 ff ;.i 13 C:r ' STATISTICS OF W. C. S. N.

DINNER MUSIC The waiters were beginning to carry out the first tray-load of dishes. Suddenly a sharp, clanking noise was heard coming from various parts of the dining-room. It in- creased in volume until a terrific din filled the entire room. A waiter dropped a tray but no one heard the crash. Uncle Ned laughed but in vain. Gradually the clatter decreased and when the first tables in the Annex started out it ceased entirely — YES, WE HAD BANANAS TODAY. Uncle Ned: How about the size of the baton. Tommy. Tommy Ale.xander: It all depends upon the size of the person. Molly Maley: Then that means I ' ll need a barber-pole. Foulke: I was in a big fight last night: while on my way home from Philadelphia I beat up six Chinamen. Smith: How in the world did you do it? Foulke: It was easy, they were all yellow.
