To those who have wrought here and now are there
In service yet nearby, “in France somewhere,”
We dedicate this tale of student days.
Here, where you left the impress of your ways,
While you give God yourselves for freedom’s fight
We yield us here to work for truth and right.
“Now God go with you 1” This is our adieu :
“Hearts from our homes, good cheer to you 1”

As Freshmen we were green with the motto “graciously grow­
ing greener” stamped all over our frightened countenances. But
did it last? For the answer, please see our record. During our
first and second years at Normal our activities and ambitions
were measured by quality rather than quantity. We were small
in number but strong in our loyalty to our future “Alma Mater.”
We seemed to pass these two years of our student career in ob­
livion but were destined to become famous in time and so left
school at the end of our second year, little content with our ac­
complishments but confident that our Junior year would mark
us as a class of acts and dreams visualized.

ourselves as entertainers. On October 21 we gave the first of
our class parties, a Hallowe’en party, made famous by its variety
and originality of costume. It was managed by a committee sunk
deep in its work and endeavor to make the party the success
it was.
It was our pride and privilege, in this year, to send such
manly “letter men” as Barry, Weaver, Kelly and Wade to the
foot ball and basket ball teams. The splendid work they did in
athletics throughout the year needs no comment from us. You
know them. That is sufficient.
While our Junior year was not so lively and full of events as
it might have been, we did our best to show we were “not asleep”.
As scholars we fairly shone and the imaginary Honor Roll held
always a worthy representation of our class.
As the Spring Term drew to a close the Juniors began to
assume that austere and forbidding manner they imbibe so nat­
urally from so-called “Senior contact.” Already we began to
feel the dignity and responsibility of our future positions. Stead­
ily pushing onward we carried the Purple and Gold through the
year, victorious. June and the State Board were only too glad to
pass all the Juniors. And then—sad as it may seem—as we had
reveled in taking the Senior’s places as leaders in the school we
now began to feel that tinge of sadness that conies with parting.
Only then did we realize that the Seniors were a truly “jolly lot”
and a class worthy of praise and commendation. We tried to
show our appreciation for their friendship and good-will by ex­
pression in the Junior-Senior Reception, June 22. The best
efforts of every Junior were put forth to make it worthy of the
Seniors and it was classed as one of the neatest functions ever
carried on in school. On June 19, Class Day accompanied with
its joys and tears gave us duly the right to spread our plumes
and frown at the new made Juniors.
In a few days we left the school as—Seniors.

up the annual performance dedicated to them and arranged a
Christmas programme touched a little with the spirit of patriot­

January 17, made famous by the traditional Senior sleighride
is a date that stands out clearly and distinctly in the minds of
everyone. To those who were not with that joyous crowd we
can only say, “You missed the time of your lives.” Those who
were there can speak for themselves.
Then in a few short months Spring, the cap-and-gown man,
and the choosing of Commencement Speakers all helped us to
realize how near at hand was our Graduation Day and how few
in number were our remaining school days in Normal. The past
events with the Senior Class Play and Commencement must
close our History Book and lay it on the shelf forever.
In saying Good-bye” to the school we cannot help but speak
of oui appieciation for the kindly interest shown in us, as a class
and in our work, by our Principal Frank E. Baker and the
Faculty.

MARJORIE EVELYN ABELL
Pilo Society, Y. W. C. A.
Marjorie’s lifelong wish has been to
have a straight nose and curly hair
but in spite of the absence of this
charming combination Marjorie al­
ways manages to look sweet. We
would like to know whether poetry is
the cause or effect of love because
Marjorie is as you know a born poet
and a poet always a private mail
man to handle the correspondence
which comes in so regularly each
night especially that which comes over
that familiar route from Harmonsburg
to Erie with the convenient stop at
Edinboro.

LOUISE MAE AGNEW
Philo Society.
A graceful dame who has made the
wise choice of changing from the
Loon to the Damm Family. Louise is
one of Mr. Siddell’s A students, but
her lessons do not receive all of her
attentions for lately her fingers have
been knitting a sweater for ----------- .
Keep up the good work however for
success will crown your efforts.

BELLE MARIE ALLIO
Y. W. C. A.
Marie is a silent partner of our
class, but, “still water runs deep.”
Several times she has and will most
likely again surprise us with her
wonderful flow of knowledge.

Cambridge Springs High School, '16
Philo Society, Y. M. C. A., Football’
’17, President of Philo, President of
Student Council ’18, Editorial Staff
of Class Book, Commencement
Speaker.
If Amos would only allow his hair
to grow as long as his mustache we
would certainly say he was a great
philosopher and poet, but as it is we
can only judge him by his mental ca­
pacity. His pet pastime is writing
bloodcurdling stories, which would
make Poe turn over in his grave. If
success is 98% perspiration, Amos is
well on his way.

HELEN ADERSON
She’s tall, she’s straight and she’s
quite sedate,
And sometimes we fear that us she
does hate.
And then again Helen really acts
very congenial to all. It doesn’t seem
to be a hard task to solve the cause
of this moodishness—but, you must re­
member, Helen, the war has affected
more than one. Furthermore, the post­
man is quite good hearted. Basket­
ball and tennis are Helen’s hobbies in
E. S. N. S., and just believe it, she’s
a shark at both.

MILDRED ELIZABETH BAKER
Oh, Johnny, where did you go?
Mildred does miss you so.
But we did notice that when the
Senior sleigh-ride came, Mildred was
able to mosy on again with a small
Russel. Never mind Mildred we all
know that jolly laugh and we can al­
ways tell if there is a spread in the
air.

“The Man of the Hour.”
This is “Barry,” who claims dis­
tinction as the successful “Wielder of

who has done the most for ’18. If you
would know more about him, see his
record. Frank likes to teach History
but the story that appeals to him most
is “Sherman’s March to the Sea.”

HARRIOT LOUISA BECKWITH
Potter Society; Class Sec. T6; Y. W.
C. A.
Harriot is very fond of good times
but she is particular about other peo­
ple taking the reins into their hands
during Study Hour.
Consequently
many hilarious merry-makings during
said sacred hour have been stilled by
her sharp rap and authoritative ap­
pearance. But never mind, this is just
a little preliminary practise for the
real game in store for her.

DOROTHY VIOLA BENEDICT
Philo Society, Y. W. C. A.
Dorothy is an unusually brave little
girl for one so bashful. Last year in
Advanced English she struggled hero­
ically through her recitations in what
seemed to be mortal terror. On other
occasions, Dorothy flutters sweetly
among us, with a dimpled smile and
simple demurity that has won the
hearts of all.

13

HELEN BEATRICE BURCHFIELD
Helen is a demure little lass, with a
sweet voice and a sweet fact as well.
Her gracious manner has won the
friendship of all. Something about
Helen makes one think she has a high­
ly poetic nature, and her musical abil­
ity would bear up such a belief. Such
a gem must be meant to crown some­
one’s happiness, sometime, some­
where.

MADGE CALVIN
Conneaut High School, Vice-Pres. Pot­
ter, Y. W. C. A.
The best things are sure to come in
small packages and this is most cer­
tainly true of Madge. One would be­
lieve that Sarah Bernhardt was per­
forming in “Green Stockings” but that
familiar laugh of Madge’s betrayed
her. She and her room-mate had a
double room in Haven Hall for awhile,
and finally landed next to our Matron,
but this change was not necessary for
the preservation of silence in the
dorm, for she could control her lady­
like behavior at any time and in any
place.
J

EVA LUANNA CARTER
Lottsville High School, Y. W. C. A.
Eva is rather quiet and possesses
that reserve which we all admire and
many times wish for. She is a good
student and always has a “Hello” for
those whom she meets.

EVA IRENE CLARK
Oil City High School ’15, Philo Society,
Y. W. C. A.
Irene has always made a special
study of Burns but lately it has been
in the line of weekly correspondence
and she has given all her spare time
in helping E. S. N. S. in its various
activities. When called upon for a
favor she is always willing and in
every case no task is too great to per­
form. Some day, unless the fore­
sight of her class mates is sadly lack­
ing Irene will be establishing for her­
self a brilliant career as a missionary.

EVA IRENE COLMAN
“We may be as good as we please, if
we please to be good.”
A more carefree girl in the class is
hard to find,—a “shark” at tennis. But
when that smile “beats” it pass by on
the other side of the street. And then,
when the smile returns, we are all
glad, and like Eva again.

IRENE COLLYER
Cambridge Springs High School ’15,
Potter Society, Y. W. C. A.
“Her voice is but the shadow of a
sound.”
But when compelled to yell and
shout in Public Speaking class she
can do it. She is a very refined, quiet,
sedate Senior. She doesn’t make a
great display of her knowledge but
from the way she answers the teach­
er’s questions we know she possesses
a vast amount of intellectual wealth.

JOHN W. CRAIG
We read in the Ferule of some sev­
eral years ago that Craig is in the
habit of coming up here every spring
to do something or other, baseball, I
guess. But this trip he landed here
in the fall. It is inspiring to watch
him teach, it reminds one of a good
old fashioned auctioneer. But then he
has been at it for several years. John
is also a good athlete and ye Gods,
how he can yell. As the years pass,
few will retain a warmer place in our
hearts than good old Craig.

ALEX. PRENTISS CRAWFORD
Potter Society.
Alex is sometimes pleasant,
Alex is sometimes sore,
But a fine good old scout is this Alex,
And we hope him to sometime be more.
Alex is one of those fellows who’ll
not be walked on. No—we might say
not even “stepped on,” for he will not
allow it—his fists are his danger signs.
Nevertheless, Alex is always ready to
do what he should and do it with a
right and happy good-will. He enjoys
reading Uncle Tom’s Cabin very much,
and then dreams of Eva. Why?

FERN ESTHER CROSBY
Potter Society, Y. W. C. A., Vice-Pres.
Class.
Who would dream that behind those
quiet eyes is stored a world of fun,
yet such is the case for Fern likes a
joke as well as anyone. We wonder
what has happened if Fern fails to
come to Y. W. C. A. In fact she is
everywhere present. We know you are
patriotic, Fern, but for whom is that
service flag for?

ALICE GERALDINE DARROW
Philo Society, Y. W. C. A., Orchestra.
A more good natured girl cannot
be found about the place than Alice.
If you want to start some fun, start
Alice. The way she plays her cornet
makes you feel like marching straight
for Berlin. Alice teaches the little
brats over in model school how to
sing, and her motherly instruction
stimulates a concord of fiendish
shrieks, distressing to the ear. “Blow,
bugle, blow, set the wild echoes fly­
ing.”

JESSIE DARROW^T^1^

Conneaut High School. ’14, Philo So­
ciety, Y. W. C. A., Commencement
Speaker, Sec., Philo, Pres. Audubon
Society.
Jessie believes in getting all the
good there is going, in this vale of
tears. She is most generally dignified,
but has been known to almost cuss
Sister Alice. She sometimes sadly re­
marks about her sister’s accomplish­
ments. Poor girl, she thinks she
hasn’t any, but a girl who can stand
so near the head of her class, and not
neglect her education to do her school
work, is good enough for us.

Harvey’s scholarly air and well de­
veloped voice at once secured for him
the respect of his fellow students. His
hearty laugh and sterling character
won their love quite as soon. Athletic
ability, good sportsmanship, and an
excellent vocal outfit are among Har­
vey’s numerous characteristics. He
expects to be called to the colors soon
and E. S. N. S. is proud to present
such a son to the country’s service.

Modest and simple and sweet—
The very type of flowers.
Even when amid the deepest trou­
bles, Marie is found as radiant as the

for displaying some of this abundant
radiance is in Sr. Arithmetic Class,
when Mr. Siddell is sorely troubled
with a severe cold. In this pleasure
she is always heartily supported by
Peg and Sara. And who could help
but laugh?
The many members of the noted

to Marie for words of cheer and com­
fort, and “contentment without blem­

Yes, small perhaps in stature but
big and broad in those great intellec­
tual powers, that all seek but few find.
If the way to become famous is to
work hard, then Katherine’s name
should go down in the indices of the
“Book of Famous People.” Then, too,
if you have an almost impossible task
to be performed, burden this young
lady with the responsibility and your
work will come out on top, every time.
She has always been and always will
be a most valuable asset to the Class
of ’18.

MARGARET MERRILL DRAPER
Philo Society, Y. W. C. A.
You can never tell just what Mar­
garet is going to do. But she never
does anything more rash than to laugh
in class. She might laugh at a fun­

Margaret, and the boys probably
would, but they just can’t get ac­
quainted. May success crown your
work, Margaret.

Edna doesn’t force her acquaintance

separable tenants of the corner fiat,
third floor back, and their cheerful

She’s fond of fun and basket ball and
her greatest weakness is Christine

she means what she says when her
brown eyes snap and she says what

When Irene perches her classic

MYRTLE MAE HIGLEY
Elk Creek High School, Philo Society,

Myrtle has yellow hair and a voice
like a wren, or some other kind of
bird. She is also a perfect lady with
strong convictions and a fine Christian
character. When she recites poetry it
sort of makes you feel funny, but when
Mr. La Bounty calls on “Myrt” in So­
ciology, she frequently arrives with
some worth while ideas. An indus­
trious, conscientious girl, she is bound

Student Council ’18, Pres. Philo So­
ciety, Class Basket Ball ’18.
When Henry landed on the campus
both societies made a dive for him,
One of them got him and what a rich
find he proved to be. None will deny
that in dramatics he is easily the best
talent that E. S. N. S. possesses. A
fine sportsman, and a polished gentle­
man, at ease and yet diffident, we admire and like him immensely.

Marguerite is a motherly dame, a
Mother Hubbardly miss, in fact. She
must have taught, she seems like a
teacher, and you can’t scare her, why,
she even talks back to Mr. LaBounty’
But Miss Houser is a cultured girl
and commands the respect of all.

George has played at various games
as he has sailed the pleasant seas of
school life. He has done his bit in
athletics, and is one of the fastest
men we have had. Fast in athletics,
understand. He has primped and
preaned, and, fallen in love, and made
us all love him. A gallant, chivalrous
youth, he would have added distinc­
tion to King Arthur’s round table.

Kel has been here longer than most
of us. And, being a boy who learns
by doing, he knows the ropes better
than you or I. He just wags his head
or grins and tells us what to do and
who would think of disregarding
Kelly’s notions. Kel likes the ladies,
but is a real fellow just the same. He
also likes football and—politics.

few of her- characteristics.
Noted

her successfulness in presiding over

DOROTHY KLAMKAMP
Y. W. C. A.
Our Dotty is always in for a good
time, but she never slights her
studies??? Her most notable charac­
teristics are the carrying of permits
and the wearing of white bandages
over her eyes, but we hope that as she
goes out to instruct the oncoming gen­
eration that it will not be necessary to
use so many bandages. The Red Cross
needs them. We feel that she has
some worthy aim in view or she would
not be attending Normal.

HELEN BELLE KOLB
“A jolly and happy girl
With sparkly eyes and brow of pearl.”
To know Helen is to like her. She
is a lover of God’s great out-of-doors,

through the country or on the campus.
And tennis—she’s a shark.

Most of us do not fully appreciate

ful girl, Kathleen, and full of fun, one
whom it is a rare pleasure to meet.

HELEN JOANNA LEWIS

When shall we three meet again?
Helen, Helen’s violin, and Ena are
usually seen traveling about the place
together. Except when the orchestra
is playing Helen is a quiet girl with a
pleasant smile and an apparent love
of fun. Do you suppose that her in­
terest in Colgate is entirely on ac­
count of her big brother John? May­
be. In the person of Helen, John has
a sister, and E. N. S. a daughter, of
whom both may well be proud.

This gentle damsel joined the ranks
of ’18 last Fall, and soon made a place
for herself in our affections. She
seems more mature than the riff-raff
of us, and must have been mistress of
the village school at some time in her
career. Alice must always rule by the
tie that binds, for her gentle voice and
dimpled smile were never meant to
inspire fear. But they were meant to
inspire, none the less.

This pretty miss, with her ready

Never sad, never angry, she is just a
little bundle of pent up sunshine,
bubbling over with radiant cheer. But

Townville High School, Y. W. C. A.,

“In her earnest face
There’s such a world of tenderness,
She needs no other grace.”
Rida is one of our quiet industrious
girls. We think her motto must be
“Never Miss a Class,” for she is never
seen asking Miss Chapman for a per­
mit. Judging from her perseverance
in her work in the Normal, we expect
to hear of her as one of the famous
ones in the realm school of peda­
gogues.

MILDRED MARSHALL

Mildred is Daisy’s big sister, the
Senior member of the Ritchie, Mar­

freak stunts as setting up a ladies’
barber shop, and getting mumps. We
wonder if anything short of surgery
would remove that smile, or, shall we
say, semi-smile. Mildred’s boundless
good nature can never fail to keep her
well supplied with friends.

Ena is our little Scotch girl who

“A little Sunshine here and there,

Who is the life of our class? Jolly,
good-natured Peg, who believes the
world has plenty of room for play and
hard work too. To know her is to
like her, we all liked her from the
first and are glad we had a chance to
know her so well then for after the
Fall Welcome, she became very busy
knitting. But we think she will be­
come a Weaver in the near future.

NELLIE MARIA MORRISON

She’s a patient studious worker,
Not one of ’18’s shirkers,

Spring, however, he came out of his
shell and this year has been quite
some fellow. Math, is where Russ
shines, chemistry, also. But English,

acquaintance to discover his jovial
qualities.

Another of her characteristics is
her wonderful flow of language. It is
impossible for her to hold it in check
during class, so she leans toward her
neighbor and lets loose. Then Mr.
Siddell says, “If you must talk, talk to
us all,” and then how she talks. Ye

conscientious members of the group
Fe wof us have become intimately ac­
quainted with Ruth; but those who
have done so, appreciate her congenial
friendship beyond measure. She has
never, so far as known, done a deed so
dire as to be classed with our bunch
of “rule-breakers.”
CORDELIA JOSEPHINE WHITE
Cussewago High School ’16, Y. W
C. A.
With gentle ye prevailing force,
intent upon her destined course.
Cordelia is distinguished by being
the least known member of the class.
She boards with her auntie and auntie
always has supper at 6, so she could
never join us in any of our festivities.
We do wish that auntie could have ar­
ranged to have had supper at 5, so we
might have become better acquainted.
This much we do know, that she
worked like a beaver in all her classes
and that she had a great fear of catch­
ing the measles. Every time she saw
a measly germ coming her way she
ran like a “can’t-elope” to the other
end of the campus. And they never
caught her.

ALMA LOUISE WOOD
Potter Society, Y. W. C. A.
Alma appears quiet to those who do
not know her. But she is not a quiet
maid, just the happy medium and al­
ways ready to lend a helping hand.
She hasn’t a very big voice but when
the Profs want to know a thing they
ask her and she answers even if she
isn’t noisy about it.

ORIN M. WRIGHT
Spartansburg High School ’16, y. M
C. A., Potter Society.
Wright looks down on us from
somewhere near the clouds. Not that
he feels better than the rest but he
grew that way. Orin is a consistent
worker and the retiring bell finds his
light still burning. According to him,
“if you can’t write Wright right, don’t
write Wright.” Good luck, Orin.

BETTY LUELLA YOKES
Harmonsburg High School ’16, Y. W.
C. A.
In her corner room on third floor
Luella receives inspiration from her
neighbor, our noted Faculty Member,
Miss Powell, to prepare her various
duties creditably. For awhile last
Spring we thought that Betty’s heart
was gone for sure but we have now
come to the conclusion that she pre­
fers to make her mark in this world
as a petite school inarm and wise has
been her choice.

LILLIAN MOSIER
Edinboro High School, Philo Society,
Y. W. C. A.
“You scarcely know she’s about
So quietly she moves.”
But these calm, quiet workers, as
we have all found out, are the ones
who accomplish the most envied re­
sults. From her class-room records
and splendid work in the Model
School, Lillian has proved herself an
apt and able candidate for that noble
and inspiring (?) profession known as
teaching school.

Senior life is full of many pedagogical cares all its own, but
a few Senior girls managed, despite the “plans and note books,”
to come out and practice when they heard of the series.
In spite of barriers and defeats they went through with ex­
cellent spirit. It is needless to say that the girls themselves de­
rived full benefit from this term of splendid sportsmanship and
“with malice toward nene” and in hearty good will take off their
hats to the worthy Junior girls

laskrf Hall Seam
The Senior basket ball season was brought to a fitting close
on March 4, by the team administering an overwhelming defeat
to the Junior five. Our aggregation suffered but two defeats
during its successful season and were declared the champions of
Edinboro State Normal.
The playing of Sullivan enabled our team to come out vic­
torious. Lingo, our fast fleeted veteran, was a sure shot, while
Stroud came in always on time with the finishing touches. Kelly
being a rugged young fellow broke up many of our opponent’s
plays and juggling the ball on his fingertips repeatedly threw it
to one of our forwards. The work of Davis was astonishing to
all who witnessed the games. Crawford kept a steady and alert
eye on the man he was playing and his opponent had no desire
to touch the ball for fear of losing it which was generally the
case. Manager Barry used good judgment in the coaching of
the team and much credit is due him for his helpful services.
Our audience always showed great enthusiasm at the games
and the cheering of the Seniors was a tremendous help to our
victorious team.

WITH APOLOGIES TO MISS JONES.
Don’t laugh at the table,
And try not to cry,
If you eat with your knife,
Look out for your eye;
Don’t butter your bread,
As i f you were new,
Or use it so thick, that you cannot chew;
Keep your arms on the table,
Your spoon in the cup,
When you drink from your saucer
Don’t dare to look up;
Don’t reach cross the table
Don’t dare interrupt
But just be quite patient
And you’ll get filled up,
Don’t shout for the sugar,
Or shout for the beans,
For as I said—you know what it means,
Try to be early and never be late,
For someone else may be at your plate.
Now these little things are only a few,
But to you who may read them, I now say—Adieu.

Wilson Henry (Coming back from Niagara game) : “It wasn t

There was a bald teacher named Snyd,
Through whose lessons you never could slide,
You mix acids and bases,
Don’t dare get “those cases,”
Then ofttiilies he’ll flunk you besides.

if this is a proposal. It sounds like it.”
Hazel Fuller: “Let me read it, I can tell you.”

LIBRARY RULES AND REGULATIONS.
Tread cautiously as you pass the desk.
Don’t jar the ink.
Do not remove the dust from the shelves.
Don’t ask questions, you may be called on to answer them.
Don’t start anything funny.

There was a queer man named Siddell,
Who never, never did yell,
He just wore diamond rings,
And walked like a King ( ?)
And taught Titmetic methods quite well.

Mr. Snyder, (in Chemistry in lesson on phosphorus) : “In
speaking of matches, please confine all your statements to Chem­
istry.”
A Junior stood in Reeder Hall.
He did not hear the bell,
And when he got to English class,
La Bounty gave him—extra poetry.

One way of passing the time in class is by studying the art
exhibits on the desk.
Dear Russel Mosier,
On the tree top,
When he grows up,
He’ll make a fine cop.

Eny, meny, miny, mo,
Count ’em over in a row,
Measles, mumps and chicken-pox,
Come to Normal, come in flocks,
They kill our dances, measles do,
Ball games, Potter play’s there too,
We’ll see “Green Stockings” you just think,
If not “Green Stockings” spotted pink.
Marion Shenk, (looking at her proofs) : “My mouth isn
crooked like that. I looked in a mirror with three glasses once
and it wasn’t.”
’Careful, Marion!

FROM THE NORMAL BULLETIN BOARD.
The honored Seniors’ sleighride,
I weep, ’tis not for me,
For tho’ I am a Senior,
I have no escort—see?
I’ve smiled my sweetest smilings
At every lad I’ve met,
And in my heart I’ve hoped and prayed,
But no one’s asked me—yet.
But if you know of any lad,
Because of bashful way,
Has been afraid to ask me,
Just send him round—today.
“We Three”

Davis: “When is a man’s head not a head ?”
Stroud: “Why, I don’t know.”
Davis: “When it is a little bear.”

Henry: “Can you tell me where the depot is?”
Citizen: “What’s the matter, Henry, lost?”
Henry: “No, I’m here. Depot’s lost.”
There was an old man from the Summit,
Swallowed his false teeth and said, “dummit,”
When-asked what he’d do,
When he wanted a chew,
He says, “I’ve got teeth in my stomach.”

New Student, (in trouble with his instructor) : “What would
you do if you were in my shoes?”
Dignified Senior: “Get a shine.”
Here’s to the faculty
Long as they live,
Even as long,
As the lessons they give.

Frank Barry, (in chapel) : “Wherewith shall I come before
the Lord,—thunder! but it’s cold in here !”
Mr. Snyder: “What does the formula H-2, SO-4 stand for?”
“Sunshine” : “Two hits, and struck out four times.”
