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” Francis La Bounty ^5 i. L t Motto “LABOR OMNIA VINCIT.” Colors PURPLE AND GOLD. Flower CARNATION. Green as grass, And awkward as sin, You ought to have seen us As we blew in. 1914-1915. i 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. 1916-1917. PRESIDENT. Frank Thomas Barry. VICE-PRESIDENT. Fern Crosby. SECRETARY. Marjorie Kirkpatrick. TREASURER. Donald Weaver. As Juniors we entered more than a hundred strong and in organizX5 came'LTour UstUsSow 8 fl ► 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. 1917-1918. PRESIDENT. Frank Thomas Barry. VICE-PRESIDENT. Fern Crosby. SECRETARY. Gladys Ryan. TREASURER. Harvey Davis. September 4, found us back at school again, registering in subjects with weighty and ponderous names through which we must wade or otherwise. In a few days teaching assignments were made and then, OH MY, a Junior’s life for mine. How9 \ ■ ™','l«>"a iSi'ii'social St1' Sw “X"lie ft*! Seniors came to its rescue and gave a get-ready-quick dancing palThe Winter Welcome given by the Seniors gave them really the first chance to show their originality and initiative, and they did it Those who indulged can truly say, "It was most enjoy­ able With the grim “receiving line” in the dim distance the evening was given up to a pleasing and very carefully arranged programme. . . Early in the year came the selection of the class lings. How clear to the heart are the memories.” Excitement was King for a few days and bits of temper and party spirit found their way from me to you. The ring, however, is noted for its originality of design and characteristic strength, truly symbolic. Christmas time, the Senior entertainment and more original­ ity. Humbly we felt we could not do our Faculty justice so gave up the annual performance dedicated to them and arranged a Christmas programme touched a little with the spirit of patriot­ ism. 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. We have enjoyed your friendship, under classmen, short or not as it may have been and we wish you success in your work here at school and in that big place called “The World?’ a clas^wp Ut not ka.st’ Jast as deserving things are last, as L?thP fniir i-T yeco^nize the splendid work done durT.&Bairy yea'S lfC °f t le ClaSS °f ’l8, by 0Uf President Frank We have tried to be true to our school and to ourselves.

Katharine Louise Dory, 318. 10 A f i ■ 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. 11 .■ w AMOS CAREY ANDERSON 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. 12 & J s ‘ A .. FRANK THOMAS BARRY Class Pres., ’15, ’16, ’17, ’18; Philo Pres., ’18; Varsity Basket Ball T6, T7, T8; Varsity Foot Ball ’17, ’18; Mgr. Basket Ball, ’17; Base Ball ’15, T6, ’17; Basket Ball Capt. ’IS; Foot Ball Capt. ’18; Student Council ’18; Senior Track Capt. ’18. “The Man of the Hour.” This is “Barry,” who claims dis­ tinction as the successful “Wielder of the Gavel” for four years and the boy 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. 14 I 1 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. 15 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? 16 i 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. fa r. HARVEY A. DAVIS Student Council ’18, Pres. Potter So­ ciety, Class Treas., Y. M. C. A., Class Basket Ball ’18, Business Mgr. 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. 17 I ‘7 •- ORPHA NAOMI DPad^ Hayfield High School ’ip RN ciety, W. W.

Even when amid the deepest trou­ bles, Marie is found as radiant as the sunflower. One of her favorite times 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 “Despondent Club” are asked to apply to Marie for words of cheer and com­ fort, and “contentment without blem­ ish.” qSi' ICEL MARET DEVORE Mickle High School, Philo Society, Y. W. C. A. Icel never macle much of a fuss around here, but she “has done ^r work, and held her peace, and has feicel° reads’’beautifully, and doubtless has many other but she is modest about d PgsJters «s »”sr • 18 I | t KATHERINE LOUISE DORY Erie High School ’16, Philo Society Philo Editor, Erie Club, Student Council ’18, Editor-in-Chief Class Book, Commencement Speaker. With congenial mien and decided gait, Who comes there?—Our little friend’ “Kate.” 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 eral, if it amused her. The girls like Margaret, and the boys probably would, but they just can’t get ac­ quainted. May success crown your work, Margaret. ► EVERETT EATON Rockdale High School ’15, Y. M. C. A., Potter Society, Orchestra. Everett is a modest youth, you couldn’t find a better, Oh, lad you were so quiet till you bought that noisy sweater. Everett is short and snappy. He wears a brush on top of his cranium, or is it a bristling mane? Everett is a jolly good fellow and is even manly, in spite of the fact that he wanted to take primary methods, and tried to get a teaching assignment in 19 / ‘ ■ I •■Ay? :W. • 1 FLORENCE EHRHART Plum High School ’13, Y. W. C. A., Philo Society. A sweet disposition and a cheery word for all, is our knowledge of Florence, who quietly goes about her work with a determination that makes us envy her. Slacker? Well, I should say not! Know her? Keep still then. EDNA MAE FROBESE Meadville High School, Y. W. C. A., Philo Society. Edna doesn’t force her acquaintance onto anybody, so until she moved into the dorm, many of us didn’t know her real worth. She and Icel are the in­ separable tenants of the corner fiat, third floor back, and their cheerful bursts of mirth often dispel the gloom from the above mentioned quarter. This quarter is also the center of great distraction every Friday when the inmates below feel the regular up­ heaval of conglomeration in prepara­ tion for the weekly cleaning. /I HAZEL LUCILLA FULLER Edinboro High School ’16, Y. W. C. A., Class Basket Ball, Sec. Potter So­ ciety. Hazel is one of our good all-round girls who believes in expounding neither her virtues nor her troubles. She’s fond of fun and basket ball and her greatest weakness is Christine Miller’s concerts. Hazel is subject to passing fancies but we have an idea she means what she says when her brown eyes snap and she says what she ’ - thinks, That isn’t often for fairminded Hazel. i GUY WILLIAM FULLER Beaver Center High School ’16, Varsity Foot Ball ’17, Philo Society. Willie can bend backwards or for­ wards and touch his head on the floor. That is his next to the best accom­ plishment??? Bill is one of those fel­ lows who is always loyal to his friends, ready to help when the oppor­ tunity presents itself. We know the class of ’19 will miss Bill on their Senior Sleigh Ride. -' S^>,7 b a FAYE ELOISE GILSON “A maiden with a wealth of hair.” Faye is a quiet, shy little maid, who cares nothing for society but loves to stay in her own room studying Vergil. She seldom says anything but her eyes speak volumes. She always wears a happy smile and she never has the blues. Keep it up, Faye, and the world will be a brighter place to live in. LOIS VASHTI GREGORY Edinboro High School ’16, President Y. W. C. A., Commencement Speak­ er, Student Council ’17-T8, Philo Society. “She, while her companions slept, Studied onward through the night.” And her efforts were not in vain even though it did take a lot of good She oil to keep the lamp burning. S ’ is the most scholarly member of our class and we are proud of her. Her books didn’t receive all her attention for she devoted much time and energy to the work of the Y. W. C. A. 21 ?c - ✓ ! MILDRED ARLENE HALL Guys Mills High School ’16, Potter Society, Y. W. C. A. Mildred is one of our Guys Mills representatives and a firm friend of Mabel’s. She is one of our good stu­ dents and loyal classman. However, all of us have not become well ac­ quainted with her, and we wonder just why she mails letters to Georgia. Lucky, those of us who do know her. | LEONA C. HAMILTON Gentle, meek, and fair With beautiful, auburn hair. We find Leona gifted with that rare art of painting. You should see some of her hand-painted china. She’s quiet and sometimes rather distant but those who have become her “satellites” seem to be very well sat­ isfied with her companionship, as most likely we all would be, had we had the pleasure of obtaining^it. 4* ! A ALICE MABEL HARRIS Y. W. C. A. Sunshin in her eyes, Sunshine in her smile. We shall ever remember Alice as the star in taking the part of the little mischievous miss in the movie “Civic Pride.” She was always right there in every class and seldom known to disappoint any of her instructors. If you need any information concerning camp life, ask Alice. 22 H I LOIS MARGARET HARRISON Spartansburg High School, Potter So­ ciety. Lois is one of the hard workers of our class. She never fails in a reci­ tation and is an everlasting joy to her instructors. Lois, we will never for­ get your pleasant smile and accommo­ dating manner to us all. IRENE HARRISON Edinboro High School ’16, Philo So­ ciety, Vice-Pres. Student Council ’17-’18, Class Basket Ball, Y. W. C. A., Joke Editor “Senior Life.” When Irene perches her classic chin and begins to knit I would ad­ vise you to let her alone—but at other times it is perfectly safe. Who would have thought that anyone but the “Old Woman in the Shoe” could have in­ duced her to come to school in her bed room slipper but—by heck, she did. RUTH ELIZABETH HARTMAN Meadville High School, Philo Society. Last year her love trials were Heavy and for a while in her Senior year they were all Wright, but why is Erie such a favorite of hers? In spite of her haughty and dignified mien at Model School, Ruth is ready enough to enjoy a good time among her kith and kin. She’s especially fond of hunting for sugar camps in the early spring. 23 ~L5 & EDITH E. HAWKINS Mayville High School, Potter Society, Y. W. C. A. “Sober, steadfast and demure.” Here is one of our most industrious Seniors. She spends hours and hours over her books and Astronomy is her special favorite. We wonder if the attraction is the heavenly bodies or Uncle David. MYRTLE MAE HIGLEY Elk Creek High School, Philo Society, Y. W. C. A. 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 to succeed and deserves whatever of good life may hold for her. ■ s :W Rs Si’ W I • • J. WILSON HENRY 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. | r;, / 24 .4 MARGUERITE HOUSER Meadville High School, Philo Society Y. W. C. A., Sec. of Bird Club. 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 HOWARD Philo Society, Pres, of Erie} Club, Varsity Foot Ball ’18, 1Varsity Basket Ball ’18. 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. MILDRED JENNESS // Z/ (P j Edinboro High School, Phila Society, faJ Y. W. C. A., Student Council ’16, . Class Basket Ball ’18. J Known to us better as Mid. Did anyone ever know Mid to look on the dark side of things? She is cheery herself and cheers everybody around her. She sends her boxes by parcel post To the one in camp she thinks of most. If any further information is wanted about our boys at Camp Hancock, go to Mid. 25 HELEN KERR Titusville High School ’16, Y. W. C. A., Philo Society. The noted Ma originally of the Damm Family but of late pet-named thus by nearly every other member of the school. Helen is small but her heart is large and every one runs to her for advice and comfort. This she has handed out freely, keeping much of it for her Junior room-mate who needs it in time of washing windows in No. 39. 1 If WILLIAM J. KELLY Philo Society, Varsity Foot Ball, ’16-17 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. MARION LETITIA KESTER Farrell High School, Potter Society, Varsity Basket Ball ’18, Y. W. C. A. Staunch member of Potter, leader of cheers and chapel exercises alike, star basket ball player, distinguished art­ ist, undertaker’s daughter, nimble glider, heart smashes, fire-chief, rag­ time player, etc. These are only a few of her- characteristics. Noted works of art once on exhibition in Kes’s room: are fast being displaced by'tropfcies from U. S. army camps and a great many of them come from somebody named Felix. But with all the soldier lovers, George is still her best. 26 £ MARJORIE L. KIRKPATRICK Clarendon High School ’16, Y. W C A., Vice-Pres. Potter, Student Coun­ cil ’IS, Pres. Haven Hall Associa­ tion. r; tei a I i Bi ba ' ,;-b oa ■“y- Ji bj b;a. n IS ■Ji. ■ b B I I a Suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, Rapping at my Study-Door. Marjorie has shown her capability in carrying on her future work by her successfulness in presiding over the inmates of Haven Hall, but do not think she is cross and sedate for Mar­ jorie is in for as much fun as the rest and will substitute laughter for gloom any time. Kirk believes in the old doctrine of “Free-man” and who could blame her? 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, and is forever going out for a stroll through the country or on the campus. And tennis—she’s a shark. 27 KATHLEEN LEEHAN Cussewago High School ’15, Potter Society. Most of us do not fully appreciate Kathleen because we do not know her. She has been seen in a classroom occasionally, but spends most of her time at the rural school. A delight­ ful girl, Kathleen, and full of fun, one whom it is a rare pleasure to meet. HELEN JOANNA LEWIS N. C. High School ’15, Philo Society, Y. W. C. A., Orchestra. 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. CHESTER BENTLEY LINGO < e /Met? d V t1 \) Pa. & '£ THORA PEIPER Thore is a most prepossessing girl, and many of us feel we have missed a real pleasure by not becoming ac­ quainted with her. You do not have to learn to like her, you just naturally can’t help it. A good worker and a good class-mate, may the fates treat you royally, Thora. / A IRENE PETERSON^ Varsity Basket Ball T7-’18, Y. W. C. A. “A mind at peace with the world.” Pete is one of the quietest girls that ever entered our school. She is fond of her books but fonder still of a bas­ ket ball game, especially when she is playing. And it is worth more than a lunch at Hill’s to see her playing the game for she is a star. ‘How proud MARY PLUMB Edinboro High School, Y. W. C. A. When you have penetrated Mary’s reserve you have found one of the dearest, jolliest girls in the class. Ask her friends and they will say, “She is delightful.” Ask her teachers and they will say, “She is one of my best students.” 34 I ! EDNA IRENE RHODES Edna is one of the pioneer members of our class and a truly faithful one. She is as capable a girl as our class possesses and will willingly tell the secret of her success. It is perseverence. A good time is not entirely out of her line though. LEILA GERALDINE RICHEY “Still waters run deep.” The only time we see Leila is when she is hur­ rying to and from classes. Who would think that such a tiny bundle could be the possessor of so much thought and reason? We wonder if Leila intends to become a staid, severe school-mis­ tress next year or a busy little house­ wife. DAISY MYRTLE RITCHIE North Shenango High School, Philo Society, Y. W. C. A. The minor member of the RitchieMarshall combination. Daisy never lacks a companion on her Sunday night trips to Edinboro. To relieve curious minds of unnecessary brain­ racking it might be convenient to state that this companion is identical with the heroic youth who braved the long ride to Cambridge Springs the night of ’18’s sleigh-ride, in a sleigh full of girls, the only other male occu­ pant being the driver. We’re looking for that kind of young men, Daisy. 35 Pc c ea-S« ELMER E. RUNDELL Elmer is a big quiet fellow with toil and determination written in every line of his being. In classes he is rather inclined to get fussed, but go go over where he and Craig keep bache­ lor’s hall and have a social smoke, if you think he lacks a sense of humor. He has a way of making a remark or relating an incident so as to make one ache with laughter, but it takes a real acquaintance to discover his jovial qualities. GLADYS MAE RYAN Potter Society, Class Sec. ’18, Y. W. C. A. There is always something doing wherever Gladys is. We simply can’t imagine her serious, A picnic without “Edibus” would seem like the Spring Welcome. Gladys, where did you get that winning way, we like it? MABEL SENSOR Townville High School ’15, Y. W. C. A., Potter Society. Everybody knows Mabel by her jolly personality. South Edinboro has been blessed with the best of music since Mabel moved in. If ever you wish to spend a jovial evening you will know where you are welcome. Mabel is very proud of her kodak picture of camp life and no one blames her for it. 36 VENA SHAW Edinboro High School ’02, Potter Society, Y. W. C. A. Miss Shaw is as Mr. La Bounty told the Ethics Class a “Very nice lady” But who would think of calling her Vena? Alas, not I. Miss Shaw has taught, am^ learned, and speaks with the voice of one who knows, She has her heart set on Alaska now. We wonder who lives in Alaska. MARION ESTHER SHENK Philo Society. The first car out and the last car in is Marion’s slogan; and such it is when Marion takes a notion to go home. This is one of our numerous girls who thinks variety is the spice of life for many have had the chance of rooming with her for a while. Marion trips along on the light fan­ tastic toe but her manner and person­ ality have won the girls’ favor and she is a friend of all. PEARL ELENORA SHEPARD Clarendon High School ’16, Potter So­ ciety, Y. W. C. A. “Compel me not to toe the mark, Be ever prime and true, But rather let me do those things That I ought not to do.” A very unassuming young lady and somewhat inclined to hide her light under a bushel. It took a long time for some of us to get to know Pearl, but when we did, we found she was a very true friend, and always ready to start something. Her favorite sport is tennis, but Oh! how she can skate! Pearl is a good student, and enjoys both her work and play, while preparing for the future. May success be with you. 37 /- iq/ & / / If & I . - p gw v ; AV:: KATHERINE JANE SHERMAN Meadville High School T6 Philn q ciety, Y. AV. C. A., Orchestra, Haven' Hall Executive Board. n “If she will, she will, you may depen1 on it, And if she won’t she won’t and there’s an end on it.” Here is 1918’s heart breaker. Cab Cab is not only popular with the boys but also with her teachers. P ’ is a girl She of many accomplishments, actress, musician, dancer, artist and expert dressmaker. Katherine Jane is a*de­ voted deciple of the time-age motto, “Let the world slip,” but not on “berry.” ELEANOR SKELTON Edinboro High School ’15, Philo So­ ciety, Y. W. C. A. “She can warm you with a smile, Or freeze you with a. glance.” 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 gods, how she talks. If Cicero, De­ mosthenes or any of those ancient ora­ tors could hear her I’m sure they would turn over in their graves and gnash their teeth in jealousy. MARY ELLENE SKELTON Edinboro High School, Y. W. C. A. Mary tramps it in to school every morning, and back to her farm home every night, with the regularity and determination of one whom nothing daunts. No storm is too rough for her, no road too bad. Such stuff as Mary is made of cares for flowers and fights battles both equally well. We hope that her flowers may be many, and her battles few. 38 I MARSHALL D. SPROUL Hayfield High School ’16, Y. M. C. A. Treas., Potter Treas., Student Coun­ cil. “In linked sweetness long drawn out.” When we learned that Marsh could sing we immediately made him Chapel sing leader. He has a fine Free Methodist way that makes one sing as if he were in a good old fashioned protracted meeting. Marsh narrowly missed an exciting adventure up on Gusty Hill last Winter but he was not alone, so had no fear, since he adopt­ ed Fulton for a roommate he has been learning rapidly, and will doubtless grow up to be a dignified, melodious man. ROSE JANE STANCLIFF Philo Society, Y. W. C. A. This little girl, musical and merry, can dance the airy fantastic toe in a way that would delight the aesthetic soul of the gods. But—when you see neat, bustling Miss Stancliff with her professional air, you know she’s “right there” in the teaching business. Most of all, we who are best acquainted with her know that Puss is the truest friend one could have, and a mighty nice girl, even if she does call a boy on the telephone three times in* succession. CHARLES SAMUEL STROUD Clarendon High School ’16, President of Y. M. C. A. ’17-’18, Potter Society, Student Council ’17-’18, Class Basket Ball ’17-18, Advertising Manager of Class Book, Commencement Speak­ er. Laugh, and the world laughs with you— Weep, and you weep alone. “Stroudy” is one of the big men of our class. From the first time that he arrived in old “E. S. N. S.” “Stroudy” has been brimming over with class spirit, and enthusiasm, both for his studies and a good time, (after “study hour”). His greatest assets are his ability to make strong friends, and his laugh. Neither are ever want­ ing. He has a few bad habits. Al­ though we have never seen him full, he often gets Fuller. 39 MARGARET SULLIVAN Potter Society, Y. W. C. A Basket Ball ’18. ” 40 Margaret with her pal Edna is com completing her fourth happy year at Edin­ boro and her single room has many memories of fudge parties and feeds but Margaret is not one to shirk her lessons for very often you may find the mid-night oil burning, Margaret says we do not have such exciting times here at Normal as when she first came, but through all the evolutions of school life, she has always been a staunch member of 1918. 10 f ' WILLIAM SULLIVAN Bill is a big, powerful kid, with a permanent fixture in the form of a jolly smile. Abundant good humor and enthusiasm wherever a good time is promised, has won for him a host of friends. William has played foot­ ball on the second team, and has proved his sticking qualities there, as indeed he has in everything he under­ takes. The words “quitter” and “slacker” would never have been if all fellows were Bill Sullivans. ANN MARIE SWIFT Edinboro High School, Y. W. C. A. “Laugh and the world laughs with you.” No weeping for Marie. Who said “eats?” Marie wants to know. We often wondered how Marie could find eight colors in the spectrum-but then she thinks “Daun” a hue. 40 c OPAL TUTTLE Potter Society, Y. W. C. A., Class Basket Ball. Opal was afraid she could not be really one of us because she is a music student. As if we would not be proud of one who can do so well what most of us cannot do. Besides her music, she finds time for class basket ball, and other class activities. She is always willing to do her share, and has won a host of friends at Edin­ boro, and at least “one” elsewhere. ■ A -A ' ■ : - ■w GERTRUDE F. TANNER Wattsburg High School T6, Potter So­ ciety, Y. W. C. A. A girl of pleasing quiet manner Is one we know as Gertrude Tanner. This is one of our girls who has a great gift of talking at the right time and has won great fame as an orator. It seems as if she finds time for every­ thing and one may find her at any spare time, sewing, tatting, etc., and we know that we can rely upon Ger­ trude as fulfilling her tasks thorough­ ly upon venturing out from Edinboro. WALTER WADE Philo Society, Varsity Basket Ball ’17-T8. This Mr. Wade is familiarly known as Bob, or, better yet, Pink. He has been known to go for a whole week without applying the razor, and then his face reminds one of those exquisite lines about “pleasure in the pathless woods.” In basket ball Bob is a star, and a man of no mean ability in other athletics. It is a matter of grave con­ cern to Bob’s friends lest his schedule prove too much for him; the poor boy takes his work so seriously. 41 to gs teW' V(W HELEN RUTH WALDRON Mill Village High School ’15, Potter Society, Y. W. C. A. Helen is a lively girl whose keynote seems to be efficiency. She is never caught unawares by even the most re­ lentless of her teachers, and handles her class in the Model School in a most school marmly manner. Helen is a most excellent girl, and our school will be better because she has lived in it, for she will have success. DONALD M. WEAVER Potter Society, Clarendon High School ’15, Base Ball ’16-’17, Basket Ball ’17-18, Foot Ball ’17, Basket Ball Manager ’18. “Sunshine.” Lo, the school’s Beau Brummel. His nick-name is quite typical of his char­ acter: manly, straight, handsome, and earnest with a wonderful taste for dress. His management of the basket ball season of ’IS and his ability as an all-round athlete could hardly be sur­ passed. To add to his laurels he is a gallant ladies’ man and it would seem super­ fluous to laud his successes along that line. Suffice it to say that Peg pre­ vails over everything. MABEL LUELLA WENTWORTH Guys Mills High School ’16, Y. W. C. A., Potter Society. “She’s sweet and she’s ne_at, And she’s quite ppcite, id Mhbel.” This dear little g js jne .me JeveVywlJeve pi want Who takes jt.\\ Wsll,\l shflW say so. to go? Chet.

W. C. A. This classmate is one of the most 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. 43 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. 44 Katherine Dory Eclitor-in-Chief Irene Harrison.

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 55 M ■ ‘U • Q-& ■ <■ • 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. J.

Several steam pipes bursting. 15 Some girls on 3 at Haven Flail become hungry about mid­ night and went to the basement hunting something to eat, but, alas, the cupboard was bare and so was the new dining­ room. 17 Senior sleigh-ride to Bartlett. All cases along and some couples that weren’t cases. A fine time was had by all, any­ how. 18 Marie Demuling cut Drawing Methods. 19 Vaccination notice up. What next?

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 fair. Erie had six men on their team.” Question: Where was Hank before the game? Charles Stroud: “Gee, I wish I had a twin, all the time.” I’d be with her Proctor: “You’re the noisiest girl in the dorm.” M. Houser: “I only wound the clock once.” An optimist is a man who can make lemonade out of the lemons handed to him. Individuality personified: Eva Coleman, Helen Anderson, Helen Kolb and Eleanor Norris. 69 Mr. La Bounty., (At the end of a page of a letter of applica­ tion, which was continued on the back of sheet) : “Where do wc go from here, boys, where do we go from here.” GENERAL WITTICISMS. .....................

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.
