fying processes and preparing a large number of examples and
review exercises.
In developing the theory, the authors have shown more plainly
than has been done heretofore the ■common-sense reason for
every Step or process. This treatment is better adapted to the
practical American spirit, and it alsogives the study of arithmetic
a larger educational value.
In making the problems and illustrative solutions, modern
conditions and practices have been kept in view. The problems
are consequently interesting and sensible, and the solutions aré
up-to-date. The exercises are well graded and thorough.
On every page of these books is stamped the class-room ex­
perience of scholarly teachers and the methods of practical men
of affairs.

the best opportunities possible for their prepara­
tion. It would be difficult to find a Normal School
in the country better equipped and conducted for
the education of teachers.
Free tuition and the low rates charged for boarding'
make the expenses of a Normal School course very low.
Young persons who expect to teach cannot afford to miss
the opportunity offered them by the Shippensburg
Normal School to fully fit themselves for their work.
The excellent accommodations provided for students,
the superior equipment of theclass rooms, and the strong
corps of teachers make the Shippensburg Normal School
a very desirable place for students to obtain their educa­
tion. All the departments have been brought up to date
in their facilities for instruction and methods of teach­
ing. Students wishing to attend a school which is
modern in its methods and appliances will find the Ship­
pensburg Normal School fully meeting their desires.

one is ready to read, he seldom asks any question
about what, or when, or how much to read, nor does he
search for treatises on reading or reviews of books. A l­
though very much has been said and written on these subjects, the
baccalaureate speaker, the visitor at chapel, or the writer of articles
for students never considers his opportunity fully embraced unless
he gives some advice on reading. His theme is usually this,
“ Don’t read bad books.” If the reader pays as much attention to
this prohibition as the cleanly dressed, small boy does to the com­
mand,»‘Johnnie, don’t soil your clothes,” he will be wise in the
end; but if he tries to be obedient and asks, what are bad books, he
finds himself at once in tangles inextricable, and before difficul­
ties insurmountable. There is not a book on the market to-day
which has not been torn to pieces, trampled upon and generally
ill-treated. “ Marie Corelli is radically wrong in her philosophy
and misrepresents the church.” “ Irving Bacheller entertains
only, and often fails in that.” § t‘Thomas Dixon Jr., overdraws the
sentimental, employs brutal language, and vilifies the negro.”
“ Winston Churchill is a servile imitator and shows his characters
in an untrue light.” Thus, all the best and most popular writers
of to-day are described, making us feel that they deceive, de­
moralize, and pollute.
If the prospective reader turns to Shakespeare, or to Milton,
or to any of the classics, he finds numerous critics at work an­
notating and expurgating until only a shadow of the original re­
mains. Even the western editor, who is running the Bible as a
serial, was threatened with prosecution by a1lawyer for publishing
immoral literature. Where, then, shall our reader turn? Every­
where there is flaunted before his face the red flag of danger. But
in spite of the warnings and in the very presence of the critics,
the condemned writers flourish, and their works prosper. The

natural desire to read cries out against these barriers: “ away
with the critics! Let me read whatever I can lay my hands
upon.’ ’
The body flourishes best on the food it craves, and is devel­
oped most successfully by the exercise in which it delights. Not
one in ten really enjoys the classics, and even if they are read,
and memorized in part, because some one says the classics ought
to be studied, the reader is profited little because the mind, like
the body, is developed by what is pleasing to it. Then the clas­
sics will never be read. Perhaps not. The classics of the ancients,
the Elizabethan, and the Queen Anne Ages, are not the only lit­
erary masterpieces ever produced. I f they should be banished
entirely, we would still have a rich and valuable literature. Let
the reader follow his bent. Let his watchword be “ read, read!’’
His course may be somewhat crooked and shallow, but after a
time when he has emerged from the rugged, the romantic, and
the unfrequented haunts, he will settle to other levels where his
course will broaden and deepen. Oh, it is true that the cheap
novel must be evaded but every man o f sense knows that!
Reading, to be pleasant and profitable, should be continuous.
No one is too busy to read, or at least ought not to be, if he is wise.
School work, however far it may be carried, affords little else than
drill. Knowledge must be gained elsewhere. That means of ac­
quiring knowledge is reading. Few of us can associate with the
cultured of our time; none of us with those who have de­
parted, but we can read their books. Therefore, if we would be
cultured and well informed, it must be by reading day after day.
This leads to the question: how to read.
To gain all there is in a book, and yet not waste time in doing
so, is a great art. Few books are to be read word by word from
the title page to fin is. Some readers feel conscientiously bound
to see every word in a book, and upon reaching the last word feel
a kind of triumph over a task completed. This is wasted energy.
Some books are to be read for their style, others for their thought,
others for the plot. As soon as the reader is satisfied that he has
gained all there is in a book for him, he can conscientiously say
he has read the book. This will take five minutes in some cas'es,
five days in others. Spurgeon is said to have read two books a
day. Talmage read fifty magazines and papers a week, and knew
all that they contained. Every student and professional man

ought to read at least two books a month. Scores of men read
twice or three times that number in a month.
To read successfully, profitably, and with pleasure, requires a
steady supply of books. In these days of circulating, public, and
school libraries, books are not hard to obtain, and will supple­
ment the private library which every one ought to try to collect.
Lessing, who had a very small income, had collected a library of
five thousand volumes before he was thirty-five. A good library
is a never failing source of enjoyment, a place of refuge in dark
hours, a constant companion in times of loneliness.
The versatile man, the man of culture, is the reader. He is
broad minded and cosmopolitan because he associated with that
splendid galaxy of brilliant minds which extends from Moses
to Chas. W . Gordon; and because he has gone with the
hosts of explorers and travelers who have covered the globe al­
most from pole to pole. Let me in parting say that it is not so
much what we read, as keeping eternally at it, that cultivates and
develops men into readers.

THE NORMAL, SCHOOE HERAED

Ubree Elements of England’s ©reatness
(A C l a s s E s s a y

by

I*. D a l e C r u n k l e t o n , ’03.)

WO thousand years ago there was no Englishman. What is
now the home of the Englishman was then inhabited by a
fierce, warlike people— the Celts.
As the Romans pushed their conquests in every direction, a
part of the island of Britain was brought under their control. The
native Celts were driven back and almost exterminated. Those
who escaped occupied the unconquered portion of the Island. In
the fifth century of the Christian Era, Rome began to lose her
possessions. Britain was the farthest outpost, and from this place
she first recalled her legions when her troubles at Rome began.
Affairs on the island might be very different had not Rome re­
called her troops. This withdrawal of the Roman forces was fol­
lowed by the decay and downfall of that empire. As a result,
other nations became bolder, piratical expeditions were fitted out,
and all the world began to stir.
In the continent, opposite Britain, lived a hardy race— a brave
Teutonic people. These men were skillful seamen and manned
many a vessel carrying the black flag. It was to these people that
the Roman subjects on the island appealed for help. They could
not withstand the attacks of the Piets and Scots on the north, nor
could they protect themselves against the pirates who scoured
their coasts. Unable to defend themselves, they turned one foe
against the other, and in the struggle which followed the sturdy
pirates were victorious. When peace had been restored to the
island, these Angles, Jutes and Saxons seized the land for their
homes.
The Saxons were a sturdy, warlike, slow, and serious people.
They knew no fear. The storm that shook their bark only
afforded them amusement. Yet, under this coarseness and super­
stition can be perceived some of the noble elements of manhood.
“ Their sense of obligation and duty was strong; they honored
woman; they revered virtue. ’ ’ Such was the foundation on which
the strong English race of to-day was built.
A t about the same time of the Anglo-Saxon invasion of
England, another band of Teutons made their way to France and
settled in Normandy. These people, afterwards called Normans,
were imitative, and soon absorbed the French customs and v i­
vacity. This valuable element their kinsmen in England lacked.

■

THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD

11

In the eleventh cefitury the Normans entered England, and
soon the blending of Norman and Saxon elements began. The
former because of their quickness pushed ahead and formed the
better class, while their slower and less ambitious kinsmen be­
came the lower class. This division acted for a time as a barrier
to the union of the races. The proud and stately Norman used
his language in court; the rough hard-working Saxon used his
language in the field. The union was slow, for it took time to
bring the Norman knight to the level of the Saxon peasant.
A t last we have, blended into one race, the Norman, with his
quickness and keen observation, and the Saxon, with his serious­
ness and depth. Hence we can see what this combination of
elements meant to. the English race.
But the Englishman still retained his coarseness, brutality, and
superstition, and this had to be removed before his people could
become a predominant race. The only thing to blot out this
rough element was Christianity. The serious disposition of the
Saxon was favorable to the growth of Christianity. In a short
time after its introduction, the sharp edges of Barbarism were
worn off, the rough customs polished, and brutal and gluttonous
practices changed to those of kindness and culture.
Thus we have, after all these years of blending and union,, a
man, free and liberty-loving, willing to die rather than submit to
slavery; broad-minded, yet deep thinking; fearless, but kind and
loving; a man fit to cope with any power; ambitious and able
through his inherited qualities to become the most progressive
and brilliant example of mankind.

It is told of the Rev. Russell H. Con well that, in company
with some other Baptist divines, he attended an outing of Sunday
school pupils, near Lake Almonesson, N. J., and ran across a boy
who was fishing at one side of the lake. Beside him lay a fish of
the kind called ‘-‘sucker” in rural districts. The group of minis­
ters stopped, examined the fish, and finally asked the boy as to
its kind.
;“ We call ’em Baptists down here,” was the reply.
“ Baptists!” exclaimed Dr. Conwell. “ W hy do you call them
that?”
“ Because,” the lad explained, “ they spoil so quick after
cornin’ out o ’ th’ water.”

“ Normal H ill” gave us some idea of what has been doing
there during these warm vacation days, as well as some
small idea of the improvements contemplated about the buildings.
W e met our busy friends, G. R.Dykem an and Dr. G. M. D.
Eckels, the principal, who in the short time we had to stay showed
us around. We knew they had completed a handsome drive way up
to the buildings, but had no idea of the improvements made in­
side the buildings. The woodwork of the main building has
been repainted and the main entrance, in its new dress, looks like
a piece of new workmanship. The fountain and surroundings in
front of the building also present a most attractive appearance,
having also been in the hands of an artistic painter.
We visitedtheladies’ dormitory, which is one of the handsom­
est and most completely equipped buildings of the kind found
around any educational institution in the State. This has been
cleaned, renovated and thoroughly aired from top to bottom.
The 90 rooms, with their handsome furniture and carpets, pre­
sent an inviting and attractive appearance for the reception of
the lady students and teachers of the institution.
Crossing the bridge, or causeway, connecting this dormitory
with the main building, we looked into the room on the second
floor where Dr. J. F. Barton imparts instruction in natural science.
This is a new room provided for a year ago, from what was for­
merly the ladies’ dormitory. It is thoroughly equipped and provid­
ed with everything needed. Just across the hall, a handsome lec­
ture room has been established for the D r.’s classes. This im­
provement was made a year ago and is decidedly one of the best
and most important we noticed around the school.
Passing through the corridors of the third floor we found that
the rooms used by the male portion of the school have been en­
tirely refitted. The rooms have been thoroughly cleansed and re­
painted, furnished with entirely new and up to date furniture;
each room contains a neat white iron bedstead, which is supplied
with good wire spring and elegant mattress and first class oak fur­
niture. The new student's desk is one of the best we ever saw.
It is about 5 feet long, with two shelves, quite an improvement
on the old tables. Instead of carpets these rooms will be provided

with rugs, which is quite an improvement. We predict the young
men will scarcely know their new quarters upon their return.
The drawing room has been newly furnished with new rotary
desks of the very latest pattern. These desks can be elevated to
any height and placed in any position. The reception room and
offices have all been refurnished and recarpeted, making them very
attractive and inviting.
The chapel is being thoroughly renovated and overhauled, an
extension of 50 feet being added to the rear. Twelve feet of this
addition will be added to the chapel. The lower, or ground floor ,
will be used as a kitchen and laundry , the rear of the second floor
being intended for a library. The floor of the chapel will be in­
clined about three feet, which is an improvement long needed.
The entire chapel will be remodeled, repainted and furnished with
new chairs in place of the long seats. It is certainly worth any­
one’s while to go out and see the many improvements being made
and in contemplation around the institution.
The steward, Mr. Miller, showed us the new Fearless dish
washer, which they have just put in place, it certainly is aii im­
provement on the old style. Dozens of workmen and mechanics
can be seen every morning, wending their way out to the Normal,
where every body is busy, in order to be ready for the opening of
the term, next week. When these contemplated improvements
are completed our Normal School will stand second to none in
the State, in the way of buildings and equipments in general.
Young ladies and gentleman, intending to enter school, should
thoroughly examine the inducements offered by the Cumberland
Valley State Normal School.

3Free tuition
HOSE who objecttofree tuition in Pennsylvania State Normal
Schools for students who are preparing to teach, overlook
a number of important things.
i.
They overlook the fact that in every other State in the union
which has a State system of Normal Schools, the tuition is free in
these schools to students who are preparing to teach. Can Penn­
sylvania stand the reflection of being made an exception to the
rule which obtains in the other States of the union?
2.
They overlook the fact that those who graduate from Normal
Schools are more poorly paid for their services as teachers than
any other class of liberally trained and educated workmen. Those
who enter Normal Schools to prepare for teaching do not do so
from merely mercenary motives. They are moved to do so
largely from philanthropic considerations and the State can well
afford to assist them.
3.
They overlook the fact that most of those who prepare for
teaching come from the ranks of those who are in moderate cir­
cumstances. Unless the State helps them to a full preparation
many of them must be content with a partial preparation. Is the
State dealing fairly by its own children when it stands between
them and an education obtained from competent teachers?
4.
They overlook the fact that every poor school is a menace
to the welfare of the State rather than a blessing, and that every
school taught by an incompetent teacher is a poor school. Can
the State afford to be responsible for poor schools when it can
well afford to make every school in the Commonwealth a good
school by simply denying incompetent teachers the right to teach
and at the same time affording all who desire to teach an adequate
and economical opportunity to prepare for the work?
5.
They overlook the fact that the doors of private wealth are
closed against the Normal Schools of the State. These schools are
the wards of the Commonwealth and it is the duty of the State
and not of private capital to support them. There is not a college
of distinction in the State that has not received more from private
wealth than the State has given for the education of teachers in
any of its Normal Schools. The colleges being private enter­
prises are entitled to the first claim on private wealth donated to
education.

S

THU NORMAL* SCHOOL* HERALD

6. They overlook the fact that it is useless for the State to ex­
pend vast sums of money for running the schools of the State un­
less a sufficient amount is also appropriated for the education of
teachers. I f the State would set apart one-tenth of the money ap­
propriated for public school purposes for the training and educa­
tion of teachers in the Normal Schools, it would not over empha­
size the importance of professionally trained teachers for the public
schools of the Commonwealth.
7. They overlook the fact that the public school is the most
important interest of the State, and that the most important duty
of the State in this connection is the furnishing of the public
schools with competent teachers, and that this duty can only be
discharged by the State having a wisely conceived system of Nor­
mal Schools, and that every efficient system of Normal Schools
will offer free tuition to all students who are preparing to teach.

A X A H E faculty is now complete for the Cumberland Valley State
X
Normal School for the coming year. The department of
Reading and Elocution, which for the past five years has
been filled by Miss Fitch, is to be in charge of Miss Frances Anna
Heath, of Beaver, Pa. Miss Agnes A . Jones, of Brooklyn, N. Y .,
is to succeed Miss Clark who for the past seven years has had
charge of the department of Physical Training. The Latin de­
partment, which has been filled by Prof. Geo. H. Eckels for the
past seven years, will be in charge of Prof. A . A . McCrone, and
Prof. J. S. Heiges takes the place of Prof. C. E. Barton who for
the past seven years has been a member of the faculty.
Those who are retiring from the faculty all entered it the same
year, with the exception of Miss Fitch, who joined it two years
later. A ll four teachers leave the school with the kindliest feel­
ings for it and the deepest friendship, though their labors will be
in other fields, where the best wishes of the friends and authorities
of the Normal School will follow them.
Of the new teachers, Miss Heath is a graduate of Beaver Col­
lege and the Emerson College of Oratory, of Boston, the largest
school of oratory in the world. Besides having had several years
of successful experience as a teacher, Miss Heath comes to the school

with the highest testimonials as to her ability in her profession
and her worth as a lady. Miss Jones is a graduate of the Ander­
son Normal School of Gymnastics, of New Haven, Conn. , and
has spent a year in the Sargent Gymnasium. These are among
the most noted Gymnastic schools in the country. She is highly
recommended by the institutions in which she has been employed,
both as to her character as a lady and her ability in her chosen
work.
Of the gentlemen who take the places in the faculty left vacant
by the retirement of Prof. Eckels and Prof. Barton, very little need
be said. Prof. McCroue, who is agraduateof the Normal School,
of the class of ’95, and a graduate also of Dickinson College, class
of ’02, ranked very high both in Normal School and in College.
He has already done very satisfactory work in the Normal School
for one term. Prof. Heiges is also a graduate of the Normal
School, class o f ’91, and of Ursinus College, class o f ’98. He
stood very high in his classes in both Normal School and in Col­
lege. In his public school teaching he has been very successful
and has taught very successfully for several terms in the Normal
School.

assumes management. The object and policy of the
paper will remain the same, namely: to serve faithfully
the interests of the School and the Alumni. In this day of books,
magazines, and public journals, the only excuse for the publica­
tion of another paper is the fact that it serves an interest. which
would be neglected without the existence of such a paper.
In our attempt to broaden the influence of the School, we ap­
peal to the Alumni for the assistance which can come from no
other source. We will not consider you egotistic for giving us
the facts of your success. Not only we, but also numbers, of other
Alumni are anxious to know of your advancement. Send us the
news! Every member of the class of 1902 has been followed up,
and a local of the whereabouts of each one will be found in the
columns of the Herald.
The article entitled “ Pleasure and Profit in Reading” is well
worth the perusal of every reader of the Herald. The essay by
Mr. Crunkleton, a member of the Senior class, is a departure from
the usual course of the Herald. While the Herald will be largely
devoted to the welfare of the school and the Alumni, the editor
would urge any who are inclined toward literature to send their
articles for publication.

“ In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths.”

E are pleased to report that many of the students are de­
veloping the spiritual as well as the intellectual side of
their lives. This development is one that is often passed
over without notice, but students are beginning to see that train­
ing of this kind is very necessary.
The lower nature is suppressed that we may train the intel­
lectual. But there is a higher nature than the intellectual which
should not be thrust aside, namely, the spiritual. The man who
is developed only physically and intellectually, has not a fullrounded education. The spiritual is the most important because
the life here is only a preparation for a fuller and larger enjoy­
ment of the spiritual life to come. Every young man sooner or
later will seek after God. The Y . M. C. A . is the place to begin
the cultivation of this nature.
A t the opening of the Fall Term only four active members
returned. The new students soon became interested in the work,
and the membership increased rapidly. Over three-fourths of the
boarding students are members, and most of these active members.
The progress is very encouraging and much interest is shown at
the meetings.

Btbletics
V E R Y one agrees at the present time that success in life
must be coupled with good health. The old Greek maxim
of a healthy mind in a healthy body has never been so
thoroughly believed in as now. Of course, there have been men
with poor health who have accomplished noble ends in spite of
their physical infirmity, but they are exceptions. This plea is not
made for the purpose-of making athletes out of every one, but
more especially that the student, and the young person starting
in life, may learn to follow nature’s laws of health.
The great antidote for warding off tired feeling and illness is
exercise. Simple, regular exercises without apparatus are as good
as any exercise with the most modern and improved weights and
dumbbells. It is not the weight, nor the bell, which forces waste
matter from the tissues and sends the blood coursing through the
body, it is the contraction and expansion of muscle. This result

arms and limbs, in connection with a very important element,
namely, the influence of the mind. No exercise can be helpful
to its greatest extent if it is not pleasurable.

/Carriage of flDiss jfitcb
H E following account of the marriage of Miss Cora St. John
Fitch, formerly of the faculty of the Cumberland Valley
State Normal School, is taken from the Athens Gazette of
August 14:
¡Hr The Presbyterian church was the scene of a very pleasant
wedding service last Tuesday evening. The occasion was the
marriage of Charles Marshall Smith, Secretary of the WilkesBarre Y . M. C. A ., and Miss Cora St. John, second daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Fitch, of this town. The church was beauti­
fully decorated in white and green, and the auditorium was filled
with invited guests. The marriage ceremony was performed by
the bride’s pastor, Rev. W . H. Sawtelle.
A t 8.00 o’clock, to the strains of the wedding march, the bridal
party entered the church. The bride was attired in a gown of
pearl white duchesse satin', trimmed with silk applique with
pearl trimming, and court train. She wore a bridal veil and car­
ried a shower boquet of bridal roses, swainsonia and maiden hair
fern.
The bridal couple departed about midnight for a trip among
the mountains, after which they will visit the groom’s sisters in

been a favorite with the old and young in the large circle in which
she moved. Her kind spirit and genial manner have always
made friends wherever she has gone. She has been earnestly and
actively interested in every good work in the community, and es­
pecially in her church, where she has been greatly valued. She
graduated from the High School here in the class of 1892, and
from the Emerson College of Oratory, in Boston, in 1897. In the
Fall of that year she went to the State Normal School in Shippeusburg, as the instructor in Elocution, and the next year was
made Preceptress of the school, which position she held until
June last. Both of these young people have been fitted by train­
ing and experience for positions of usefulness and influence w hen­
ever they may make their home.

H E New Course of Study is now in full operation in the
Shippensburg Normal School. The Senior class num­
bers twenty-five, the Middle Year class numbers about
sixty, and the Junior class contains about the same number as
the Middle Year class. The Junior class will be enlarged consid­
erably by accessions it will receive at the opening of the Winter
and Spring Terms. That the New Course of Study will be a dis­
tinct gain to the Normal Schools of the State there cannot be the
least doubt. Dr. Schaeffer, Superintendent of Public Instruction,
regards it as the most important step the Normal Schools have
yet taken.

■

The following graduates of former classes are now at the Nor­
mal School taking the additional year’s work, which will entitle
them to the diploma of the New Course of Study: Misses
Josephine Hughes,' Blanche Clever, Mary Hamilton, Emily New­
ton, Nora Nickles, Elizabeth Cunningham, Florence Fogelsanger,
and Messrs. Andrew Jackson, Roy Guyer and J. Edward Whorley. This number will be increased during the year by a halfdozen more who already have taken part of the additional work.

24

THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD

The following subjects will be required of those who have
finished the Elementary Course, in order that they may graduate
in the New Course : Solid Geometry, Trigonometry and Surveying, or an equivalent amount of Greek, German or French; Chem­
istry (one term go r its equivalent in Greek, German or French ;
Geology (one term), Zoology (one term), three Orations of Cicero,
three Books of Virgil, second and third Books of Caesar, and Ad­
vanced Psychology. For graduates who are so situated that they
cannot spend a year in consecutive terms at Normal School in
finishing this work, arrangements have been made whereby the
work can be completed in Spring Terms.
£

Four new upright pianos have been placed in the Normal
School this term ; two of them have been placed in the music
rooms for the use of music pupils, and the other two will be
placed in the rooms in which the two societies hold their meet­
ings. These rooms will also be furnished with new assembly
seats. The accommodations for the societies will be much im­
proved when these rooms are properly fitted up for their use.
j*

The present Senior class will have better opportunities for
practice teaching than most of the classes preceding it have had.
Each member of the class is teaching two periods a day. Antici­
pating the small size of the present Senior class, all the method
work of the course was given the class in its middle year, in order
that the members of the class might have more time for teaching
in the Model School. The actual teaching the Seniors are now
doing will be worth in experience several terms of public school
work. When they graduate they can be truthfully recommended
as experienced teachers.
