NAI-I M I I A f ff, gl PUBLISHED BY TI-IE CLASS OF I9lI WINONA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL juremnrh OR the first time in the history of the Winona Normal School the senior class is publishing an annual, and it has christened it the 'AWenonah. Altho we, as a committee, have tried to make it a success, we feel that it is not so much the result of our labors as the outgrowth of the splendid spirit which has been shown by the school. We wish to thank all those who have helped us in getting out the paper: the faculty for their aid and criti- cism, the contributors for consuming the midnight oil, the student body for the interest which they have shown in the plan, and especially Miss Van Vliet, who was compelled to leave before her duties as editor were completed. And now as the Wenonah,' is issued for the first time, we hope that it will be received with a welcome which will insure its success and give it a permanent place in the life of our school. F.

Maxwell RESIDENT GUY E. MAXWELL, to whom we respedtfully and lovingly dedicate this annual, was born in Mason County, Illinois, in l87O. Nine years later his family moved to a farm in western Minnesota, where he lived for three years. He then attended the Appleton public school and later prepared for college in the academy of Hamline University. Upon graduating from that institution in l893, he was eledted principal of the village school of Herman, Minn. After holding that position for two years, he took up a similar position in the high school of Marinette, Wis., remaining there three years. ln l896 he was married to Jeannette R. Evans of St. Paul, a former classmate in college. Desiring to prepare for special work in educational supervision, Mr. Maxwell en- tered Teachers College at Columbia University in l898, earning the master's degree the first year and studying for the doctorate the following year. At the close of the second year he was appointed principal of the training department of the Winona State Normal School and came to take up the work in l900. After four years in this position he was elected president of the school. Since coming to Winona Mr. Maxwell has done much for the advancement of educational interests, both of the Winona Normal School and of the state. New depart- ments and new courses have been added, the buildings have been improved and enlarged, and the work of the school has been strengthened and developed along many lines. Not only the school as a whole has been benefited throughout his administration, but each student has been helped by the loyalty, the cordial sympathy, and kind interest of his friend, our president. l6l QI arting moth To the Class of I9I l: If you have come to share in full measure the spirit of your Alma Mater, whom you are about to leave behind, your tongue will not utter the words of the ancient guild who said of their goddess, Great is Diana of the Ephesians, for by this craft we have our livinggn but your ears will catch the call to service which came to a great teacher in a night vision, Come over into Macedonia and help us. A senior class such as yours once gave consideration to ulch dienf' I serve, as a class motto. The majority of the members rejected this motto thru the fear that it might seem submissive and servile. They had forgotten that as teachers they had been specially prepared and set apart for a great mission. F or the one profound purpose of the state normal school from which you are about to be graduated is expressed in that rejected motto, Ich dien, which summarizes the deepest meaning of life in a democracy. It is primarily your mission as teachers to in- culcate the spirit of service and brotherhood until it shall not only be- come a part of the intellectual store of growing boys and girls, but ani- mate as well their habits of conduct, and inspire and exalt their char- a6ter. All your school associates heartily appreciate the helpfulness and loyalty of the Class of l9l l. ln bidding you farewell, we express the earnest hope that your lives may continue to be useful and happy.

And why not? Had they not rounded out fifty full years of work for our institution? It is with pride that we, the class of I9I I, complete the first year of a new half century. We have run the race that was set before us, and small wonder that we ran it well. Fifty years of uncliminished progress behind and a life time of honor to come! And now our special achievements and difficulties will soon be blended by the hand of time into the history of the school. To this history, these are our contributions: our class play, our annual, and our spirit. Every great country has its ancient history founded in myths. Legends are a part of the first food for thought in the primary rooms of our schools. So, true to all good beginnings, we come into our new half century with a legend. Like eager primary children we dramatize it, and we love it because we can all take part. The whole community is interested in the myth of Wenonah because it is their very own. We publish an annual. Fifty years from now our descendants can turn to our Baby Book. What a God-send it will be to the Ruggles who shall write the centennial history in another half century. He can refer to it and find with readiness and ease when our first tooth appeared and that dreadful day we bumped our heads. One balmy spring evening a group of men were sitting around a camp fire, boasting in a friendly way of their native lands. lf you vas not English, john, vat vould you be? said a sturdy German. Oh, said john, ul think l'd be a German. What would you be? Vell, dot English nation vas pretty good, drawled the German, then turn- ing to an Irishman he said, Say, Pat, if you vere not Irish, vot vould you be? lt's ashamed of mesilf l'd be, replied Pat. It is this spirit of undaunted loyalty that per- vades the class. It makes us true to all with whom we are connecfted. To the present we give our class play. Future generations may claim the annual as a bit of their history. But the spirit we have gained is ours! The loyalty which we boast is not born of prejudice, for loyalty does not consist of degrading other things to make one's cause appear better. It is born of a love so deep that we are able to see good in everything, and we are even willing to bear both just and unjust criticisms so that what we love may become more nearly perfect. We have realized the value of this spirit here. Let us take it into our life work. Let it be our watchword. Loyalty, the spirit of the class of l9l I! M. C. mi WENONAH wenunab-Zin Zinhian Zlhpl HE Senior Class has chosen for the class play an Indian theme to be given in the form of a pageant. The Book of the Pageant has been written by Miss Christine H. Boy- son of the class of IQO6. The music has been selerfted from the best sources, and the costumes are to be typical. The Sun Dance, Virgin's Dance, and Warrior Dance are included in an lndian Festival to be presented. There will be one hundred characters in costume, including Father Manard, Dul..uth and his French trappers, Wenonah, Chief Wapasha, Tomdolca, Indian maids and braves. Special scenery and drop curtains will be used throughout the pageant. PART l. l. The Early Mission Life of Minnesota. The French explorers and the Jesuit Fathers contributed largely to the early history of the state. Father Rene Menard H6505 was among the first to labor among the red men of the North. 2. Dul..uth at St. Anthony Falls. The Falls of St. Anthony, or Minnehaha Falls, have long been famous in story and song because of the Indians who made their home in that region. Father Hennepin discovered and named St. Anthony Falls. Duluuth and his men were received in a friendly manner by the Indians. 3. The Legend of the Peace Pipe. Chief Wapasha and his braves appear in this scene. PART II. I. Indian Festival. The Indian is known because of the tribute he pays Nature. The Festival begins with the Sunrise Call and concludes with the games and ceremonies which form a part of such an event. U51 2. Departure of DuI..uth. DuI..uth and his men set out to find the head waters of the Mississippi. 3. Indian Idyl. Among the Indians the wooing was done by the father of the young brave or some member of his family. If the overtures, made not to the young girl but to her father or some representative of her family, were satisfactory, the gifts, often some valuable skins, were accepted, the time for the marriage was set, and the braveis father returned home, When the young brave came to claim his bride a valuable skin was placed in front of the Wigwam. The attitude of Wenonah at this moment decides the fate of Tomdoka, her Indian Iover. PART III. I. The Dakotas Ieave St, Anthony Falls for Wapasha Prairie,the present site of the City of Winona. They have passed through a season of famine, and upon arriving in a fertile coun- try they observe a beautiful Indian custom.

As an illustration of this patriotism of the class, witness the noble spirit with which they have allowed the Seniors to usurp the honor and space of this, the maiden effort of the school in publishing a students' annual. Nor do they mourn the plaudits they have lost, instead, they feel this to be but a stepping-stone by which they will climb to still higher achieve- ments and honor. . Occasionally, it is true, genius has found it impossible to hide itself, as when Miss Arloine Forbes gives the school a rare musical treat, or when Miss Clara Mccune, their witty President, feeling that patience is not always a virtue, reveals a glimpse of the latent brilliancy of the class. Having spent the year as a reflector, as it were, of these brilliantly radiating lights, the juniors feel that the time has now come for their self-abnegation to give place to a display of their capability. As a final tribute to their fore-runners, the juniors will tender them a reception, at which, for the last time, the Seniors will have the benefit of a sympathetic back-ground. ln the future, without their accustomed inspiration, they must vie individually with the lights which are already brightening the world. Then the Junior stars will emerge from their regions of obscurity to make still more splendid the musical, intellectual and social illumination which the Seniors have this year made. As they in turn take their place as Seniors, they will have raised the standard a little higher and have made it more difficult for the next Junior class to surpass.

One hundred girls are banded together with one aim, that of leading a more spiritual life. Each week there is a devotional meeting led either by one of the students or by a member of the faculty. The girls freely express themselves, and many are helped by the restful service. Solos are often rendered by different members. The work of the society is pra6tical. The members try to welcome new girls and interest them in the society's work.

Through the efforts of our retiring president, we were represented at the Territorial Convention held at Cedar Falls, Iowa, in March of this year. The new president and vice-president were the delegates. The various committees have done good worlcg the social committee has shown itself especially efficient and has often given an added charm to the meetings by pro- viding a social hour after the devotional exercises. l4ll ni 'wt tm L I T E R R Y Qin INQQM HH? The just Clixpehitiun ut the Zlstrunumiral Smitty nf minuna ING! bang! crash! the screaming of many people and then a whizzing sound as down, down the airships fell, held together as one by the terrible crash. The Americans, screaming and calling for aid, were fast becoming panic stricken, while the captain of the Winona fthe distinguished name of the American airshipj rushed here and there, giving orders to his crew as they swiftly de- scended. Suddenly a sad, sweet note, like that of the nightingale, came to their ears from the pitchy darkness. The moon, the wanderers' friend of a few hours before, seemed, like themselves, to have become a wanderer in the orbit of some other planet. Soon after the note had been uttered, the airships descended more slowly, and were finally suspended in the air. The inhabitants of the floating masses now had an opportunity to view their fellow passengers and wonder at their sudden stop. The captain and the flyers of the Winona lit the gas jets and began to investigate the particu- lars of the accident. F ar above them was a great canopy of oiled skin, extending far beyond both ships, but fastened only to the second of the colliding ships. This ship was peculiarly different from the Winona, having a strucfture of bamboo with sails that seemed at first to be oiled skin but which, upon closer observation, proved to be as thin as paper and yet stronger than any skin known to the world. The long tapers which were extinguished by the accident had been again lighted. Their brilliant light and their heat were very comforting to the earth people. The lighted ship was populated by strange, unearthly beings, who were short and very slender, with large oblong heads almost without hair. Their features were small and drawn together in such a way that each seemed to have lived as long as his neighbor, while no one seemed young. Small unwavering eyes looked through oblong eye glasses fastened about their heads by red metal chains. Their scant clothing was made of the skins of birds. The Astronomical Society of the Winona State Normal School, Cin search of the tail of l-lolzingefs comet under the leadership of a friendly science professorj was at first greatly amazed, but wasted little time in reaching the abode of their fellow sufferers. Captain Munson first gained this destination, followed by the less timid of the party. l42l Each language that he tried was met by a stare from the unearthly being. As a last resort Latin was used by the fainting captain. Vos cognoscimusf' responded the unearthly being. We are from Mars and were planning a visit to the earth. l have often watched you earth beings through these telescopic eyeglasses of mine. I put up the canopy when we met this accident and by it we are suspended in air. l shall immediately put my men to work to repair the damage. Therefore prepare for a few days stop. Preparations were made for the evening meal, after which both Winonans and Martians gathered about the central torch for the evening. Will you not sing for us? asked one of the Winonans. Then a volume of un- differentiated notes having a nasal twang gushed forth upon the silent air. The director of music at the Normal was horrified. Gasping as she clung to the arm of her chair, she exclaimed, They are dear, sweet people, but they can't sing. No, they can'tg that is the truth, sweet people. This is atrocious, abominable and ludicrous, ladies and gentlemen, to waste such valuable time when we might hear of the wonderful phenomena of the universe, said the leader of the expedition, a kind hearted scientific German and the discoverer of the comet of whose tail they were then in search. Think of the vast information about the Pleides, Aldebaran and the Twins which they might impart to usf' Then as a last thought he exclaimed, They may have birds upon their planet with two toes, hind toe elevatedf' A lady passenger at this moment called the worthy leader aside and said, Re- quest them to speak briefly. Their speech is so unorganized and undifferentiated, as it were. l wonder what they mean by 'truth' and 'goodness' Did you perceive that they do not apprehend when their second term of the judgment is identical with the first? It is fortunate that they met us instead of the Mexicans who could not under- stand them. What an idea! Oh, yes! l have it! A theme for a short story! l shall have the Martians and Mexicans meet in a desert and through lack of other companion- ship become great friends. She hurriedly went to the other side of the deck and began writing. Meanwhile a member of the Martian party had been chosen to speak briefly. A league of time ago, or fifty years, as you would say, he began, I visited the city, Winona. l observed a huge red structure where earth beings came and went. Most of them wore upon their heads round, flat objects which doubtless prevented gravity from devouring them into the bowels of the earth. lnside this structure the beings passed from box to box, in each of which they stayed a short time while an older being in fluent tones seemingly reprimanded them. ln one box they talked of aim, preparation, develop- ment, presentation, and generalization in lofty terms. Do you still have this course of study? A short, cheerful man of the party, seeing that no one was about to answer, spoke: Yes We used to hit the high places. Our course for teachers now consists of five I43l years of work. We have introduced classes in philosophy, ethics, biology, and sociology which have vastly improved our system of schools. That is to say, in the last analysis, since socialism has been introduced the high cost of living, monopolies and high tariffs have been abandoned, causing education to receive a higher standard. The psychologist was rather offended by this speech since the great reawakening in education had been credited to change in politics rather than to the new Gaylord psychology which had swept over the educational world like wild fire. Calmly he said, Please ask the Martian to express his last statement in another way, as the method of their learning is not quite clear to me. l wish to see if their psycho-physical process is identical with ours, and if they believe in the recapitulation of the race. By the time the educational discussion had ceased, it was long past time for retiring. Before this meeting is broken up, I would like to ask one question, said a blonde young gentleman. Having been granted his wish, he rubbed his hands several times and asked in kind tones, A'Why are we so suspended in air and not so drawn by gravitation to some planet? The sad, sweet voice rather startled the Martian, and he answered, We are at a point between the earth and Mars where there would be perfect equilibrium if we were over the North Pole of the earth, but being over the equator we are slightly drawn to the earth. The canopy above us remedies this and we are held up by the resistance thal carbonic gas offers to the covering. The earth being went to smooth his hair at this scientific discovery but in his haste pulled his nose instead. After two very pleasant days, the repairs having been completed, the canopy was taken down and the two ships started on their journey to the earth, having decided to leave the discovery of the comet's tail for another expedition. When they reached a distance of about five miles from the earth the torches of the Martians began to flicker: the unsubstantial gas by which their motor was run gave one puff when it came in con- tact with the oxygen of the air, and up they went into the unknown regions once more, leaving the bewildered Winonans to seek the inferior earth where they could teach the hundreds of students the story of Mars. F. Mc. QQ Graft HEN l, in the hope of becoming a teacher, entered the opening of the way, my friends all cried, Be sure to get a graft. I promised l would try. How the gods must have laughed at me! How was I to obtain this illusive thing? was the next question that con- fronted me. l made eager inquiries as to what graft was. Oh, getting in rightf, was l44l :I:IfTlH :IVO'l HVDOS the universal answer. Now what did that mean? fDear people, you must remember that the word graft, which until a short time ago was itself slang, has just graduated from that lower class, and l ask you to pardon slang in my explanationj. Getting in right. Getting in right. The meaning of the above gradually became clear when l realized that l had not got in rightly. l could plainly see that ! had not, but how to do it l knew not. A few days passed, and one unhappy moment l had the ill fate to be called upon to recite. It was after one of the Normal receptions, and my brilliancy was exhausted. l rose, took a weak, uncertain aim and missed the mark. The teacher looked bored and called on my next neighbor. She, with a look of positive assurance which made me want to shake her, rose and in a finished way made a brilliant, polished recitation. The teacher beamed, and my breast burned within me. All at once it flashed over me. She had a graft! Crafts, grafts, everywhere, Nor any graft for mef' l openly joined the rank of graft haters. Meeting the girl who had acquitted her- self so creditably in the morning class room, l said, Will you please tell me how you get a graft? She looked at me calmly and replied, nl don't believe in them. This verihed my conclusions. Of course you don't, l criedg You have one! and went away to think again on the subjecft. l was determined to get to the end of the trail. No learned scientist was more anxious to reach his goal than was l to find what these ridiculous five letters meant in a school. The air was literally alive with them. Finally l determined to watch the suspicious characters who were the proud possessors of grafts. Oh, disgruntled Sherlock Holmes! Each one trudged wearily home at a quarter to six with four heavy books in her arms and a careworn expression on her face. Dorothy l... LQ The Butterfly NE beautiful day in the long ago, a lovely butterfly was Hitting over a field of exquisite Flowers. As might be expected, perhaps, the butterfly was perfedtly contented with himself and his surroundings. He had just alighted upon a daisy and was comparing his parti-colored wings with its pure simplicity. O thou common flower! he cried. ls not thy heart sad to think how plain thou art when compared with me? The daisy nodded, but gave no answer. !45l just then a sweet strain of music was wafted across the glen. ul must see whether the creature that utters such notes is as beautiful as its song, murmured the butterflyg and away he Hew. When he reached what he thought to be the source of the music, the sounds had ceased, and he could see nothing. l-le was about to give up the search when, with a great whir, something dropped upon him, and carried him away. The robin had found its dinner. A little later the song was resumed. The daisy heard and smiled. Millard Blair. Gelniaping jfrienhsbip RIENDS are not lost when silence spans the years Since last our souls in sweet communion metg Not all the burden of earthls cares and tears Can break the magic chain which binds us yet. Those are not lost who meet the call of death, Though silence only answers to our cryg For love is stronger than our mortal breath And spans with faith the space beyond the sky. They only lose, whose heart has learned mistrust, Quenching the faith that lighted early youthg The desert sands of selfishness and heat Shall never choke the way of love in truth. We only lose that which we cease to prizeg Those friends are lost and those are lost alone Who learn to meet us with averted eyes Or speak the name of friend in bitter tone. We shall be friends and faithful classmates yet, However far our paths may lead apartg We shall not lose - for we shall not forgetg Our friendships live in every loyal heart!

There seemed to be some ex- citement in the air and as the hour of six drew near, this increased. One by one the honored guests arrived - Mrs. Maxwell, Mrs. Morey and Miss lnglis, all of whom have been interested in Morey Hall. Almost hidden from view by a group of gay girls could be caught glimpses of a tall young man, another guest. Upon being asked whether he had met any of the young women, our resident director, Mr. Somsen, answered, Yes, forty-one by acftual count. Occasionally the hostesses cast anxious glances toward the door, plainly in expecft- ancy, for the dinner hour was near. We wondered who was yet to come. Suddenly the door opened and President Maxwell entered. Dinner was announced. Descending the stairway, the guests entered a brilliantly lighted room. ln the center stood a table about which were grouped six other tables, covered with snowy napery, glistening silver, and pretty china, very pleasing parts of the new equipment. Places were assigned the guests, and a delicious dinner was served. After dessert, with President Maxwell as toast master, the following toasts were proposed: Lest We Forget, responded to by Miss Browng The New Girls, by Miss Mathis, The Nondescriptsf' by Miss Davies, Our Faculty Boardersf' by Miss Saundersg and The Powers That Be, by Mr. Somsen. A Then followed something which filled the hearts of all with great joy. This was the announcement by President Maxwell that Miss Katharine Kenaga had accepted the position of dean for the coming year. After this the girls gathered about the center table and sang lustily a Morey Hall song set to the tune of Die Wacht am Rheinf' and expressive of their loyalty to the Nomial School and of their deep appreciation to President Maxwell for his enthusiastic and sincere interest in the equipment of their beautiful home. With this song ringing in their ears all dispersed, glad that they had had a part in this happy occasion and feeling that this, the first dinner, but presaged many happy days for the girls of Morey Hall.

I53l A Q f U 5 if J? 1' Q HE ll Qfblffiff ll ITH the new movement toward physical education, athletics have found a place in almost every school. Our institution has excellent equipment along this line -the gymnasium located in the new building being one of the finest of its size in the state. Athletics have risen into prominence swiftly in our school. During the last two years, under the capable leadership of Miss Andrews, this phase of the school-life has developed from a few struggling efforts into asystem of physical education. The work of the year falls into several lines: talks on hygiene, freehand movements, marching, rhythmic work thru folk-dances, outdoor plays, and the organization of a number of basket-ball teams. Soon alter the return of the students in the fall, outdoor work was begun. We were given our choice of volley-ball, outdoor basket-ball, cross country walks, and tennis. Everybody set about working up team spirit, and the tennis players nerved themselves to double effort in preparation for a tournament to be held late in the spring. When cold weather came we settled down to the muscle-producing exercises of the formal gymnasiumg and oh the groans as we wearily toiled up the stairs after our first day of indoor work! A number of basket-ball teams were organized immediately, and the squads have worked faithfully and well. Inter-class games have been held, which have shown the efficient coaching given by Miss Andrews, and the individual effort and loyal team- work of the girls. Now again the campus is filled with merry groups of players, but all too soon we seniors will leave these games, carrying with us the memory of the happy days of our life in the Winona Normal School.

The pilgrims beg on bended knees for some sustaining foodg With cornmeal mush and doughnuts she doth cure their pensive mood But harlc! Upon the stillness bursts a melody divineg The Mendelssohn is singing, O My Darling Caroline. The woodland echoes carry far the sound of silver songg An entire front row chorus rolls the harmony along. They sing the Rigoletto with an equal poise and vimg There's nothing daunts the singers, not a single public whim. The tune has changed, the pageant now to yonder dell doth roam, And joins the special chorus singing Home, Sweet Home. M.
