You were: undoubtedly impressed by the enthusiasm that pervaded the Alumni hp§t.s. It was in the. air, it was everywhere. Altogether it was a splendid gathering,; long to be remembered by all who were fortunate enough to take part in it. Probably the keynote of the gathering was mutual helpfu li ness. Every one seemed to recognize that the growth and ad­ vancement of the'school-Jwere very clogely interwoven with the growth and advancement of the individual Alumnus. The school is anxious and willing to help you to bptter things,|iii(it we must have your active co-operation if this feature of our work is to be made really, effective. During June rpany principals and supeifi intendenf|', not to mention directors, wpote to us asking us to rec­ ommend graduates for good positions^ Very often we were un­ able to furnish an applicant for the place because we did not have the necessary data at hand. It is for this reason that I am ap- 2 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD pealing to all the Alumni to help make this work more effective. If you are desirous of securing a better position, write to us giving full information as to the kind of work that you desire, your qualifications for the work and the lowest salary that you would accept. Be sure to give us full directions for communi­ cating with you promptly. Then when you are informed by us of a vacancy it is very necessary that you act promptly. A num­ ber of good positions were lost by our graduates this year be­ cause of lack of prompt action. If you don’t care to accept the place notify us just as promptly as possible so that we may rec­ ommend somebody else. If you are elected to the place, notify us of this fact so that we may know that you are located for the year. In case you do not obtain the position it is just as import­ ant that you give us that information so that we may help you elsewhere. When you are elected to a new position we shall be glad to help fill the one to be vacated by you. W e are frequently asked by teachers;’ agencies to furnish good men. The managers of these agencies complain that too often they do not receive any response from those to whom they write. You will realize that courtesy alone requires a prompt acknowledgment of letters of this kind. If our Alumni will help us along these lines we can greatly increase the usefulness of the school. And now just one little matter: It is a simple thing to en­ close postage stamps when writing for any favor, but it is a mat­ ter that is sometimes forgotten. The school is very willing to do everything in its power to help you to a position without any cost to you, but the sight of a postage stamp enclosed in a letter makes a good impression upon us, as we realize that our gradu­ ates have probably been just as mindful of their duties in bigger things??? So let us all work together to help one another and by so doing we shal realize “ the Greater Shippensburg" toward which we are all looking. **** Didn’t we tell you it ’ud be great! W ell! yes well. Some just couldn’t come. Those we pity from the bottom o f our hearts. Some didn’t come, and they’re sorry for themselves: Yes we know you won’t let it happen, again; we believe you sir. T HE NORMAL S VG I O O L HERALD 3 W E C E L E B R A T E S H A K E S P E A R E ’S 350th B IR T H D A Y : On April 23rd with thousands of otherfichools dll over the world we observed the 350th anniversary of theríbirth of the “ Bard of Avon.” In our English classes we had dramatized Shakespeare’s Merchant of Venice, Macbeth, and parts from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. In order to know his poetry we had read aloud to our classes many of his erquisite sonnets. “ Our Memory— Gem A Day— Club” had committed some of his-sonnets to memory, and we had studied the life of the poet who ranks first in all tongues. So we were well prepared to render a pro­ gram in his memory and to enjoy the numbers. The exercises were held in the chapel at 2 o’clock on Thurs­ day afternoon, April 23rd. All the classes were in attendance;, some of the advanced classes from the Model School came u p ; and many o f the parents and friends o f the school were on hand to help us do honor to Shakespeare’s memory. All of us had de­ termined that the program should show as many sides o f this many-sided man as possible. So with the help of Miss Hubbel of the Department of Vocal Music and Dr. Lehman, who has had so much experience in staging Shakespeare’s plays, we sang songs, read sonnets, and dramatized two scenes from “A Mid­ summer Night’s Dream.” The program as we gave it follows.

Wallize COM M ENCEM ENT AD DRESS Delivered by Dr. Ezra Lehman in Normal Chapel Members of the Graduating Class, Ladies and Gentlemen: When I was called to the principalship of this school a year ago, I came to it with certain definitely conceived .ideas as to the work of a Normal school. But I preferred to postpone my for­ mal expression of these ideas until I had opportunity to put them to the test to find out whether they were practical, suited to the conditions that obtain in our educational life in Pennsyl­ vania. I now come to you at the conclusion of a year’s service during which I have tried to test, these ideas. I come to report not achievement but progress toward the goal, not realization o f aims, but a firmer conviction that, the ideal before us is both possible and practical, I want to talk to you my young friends, who are now to go out into the active work of life, about the place a normal school holds in a system of education, that you may more clearly under­ stand, what we expect of you who now become the representatives of the Normal School System: I want to discuss this question with the friends of the school here assembled, because I am anx­ ious that they should understand and report to their respective communities the nature of the work that this institution stands pledged to do. Nearly every writer on educational topics has attempted to formulate a definition of education very often the attempt is made to show what etymologically education ought to mean; but the question is a practical rather than an etymological one; 6 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD for a system of education is the effort of a community, a state or a nation to realize an ¡Edpal. If its ideal in the past was military supremacy, it bent its system of education to that end; if today it is social efficiency, it should aim to secure that result. It is almost universally recognized that every profession has two sides^-tha§fiof science and that of art. A physician must understand physiology, anatomy, hygiene— in short he must know the science o f medicine, but he must also understand how to set a broken bone, how to perform a surgica|fjoperation— in short he must learn the art—ttthe practice of medicine before he is -a skillful practitioner. Formerly he learned this by actual practice, by a trial and experiment process but today the medical world demands that he shall acquire the art in a hospital under skilled direction before he is permitted to practice. I may know every phase of the science of electricity, but I may be unable to wire -your house or even equip it with a door bell and battery until I have learned the art side of electricity. I will learn it more quickly because I know the laws of electricity, but for all that you will not hire me until I have worked with a master who understands how to do things. Originally the world, especially the business world, was more concerned with the doing of things than with the mastery of principles underlying the doing. Manufacturers took boys and young men into their establishments as apprentices to learn the how of manufacturing. It w as' expected that the apprentice would spoil much that he undertook to do, but the world recog­ nized that no other way of learning than that of imitation, of trial and failure, until through failure success was achieved. But the sharp economic struggle of the nineteenth century brought home the tremendous waste involved in this method. Men be­ gan to understand that a knowledge of the principles underlying manufacturing was! necessary: the skilled workman must un­ derstand the why as well as the how. The colleges and technical schools introduced scientific courses: the chemical properties of metals were studied; the structural value of iron, wood and of stone were investigated; the principles underlying all kinds of labor were emphasized Sand young men were graduated from schools and colleges as engineers, overseers and managers. But again it was.found that the difficulty had not been solved: the young men were theorists ; too often impractical, unable to adapt THE NORMAL. SCHOOL HERALD 7 themselves to the varying conditions they were called upon to meet. Many prominent publicists urged a return to the old ap­ prentice system, but those more thoughtful began to ask whether it is not possible to combine science and art in a system of edu­ cation to master the why and the how. The answer to this has been a complete reorganization of technical education: the stu­ dent masters the principles and then goes to the shop, or labora­ tory attached to the school or working in harmony with it and tries the principles he has studied. Young men no longer study merely how to build bridges ; they build them. They work on railroads with surveying corps. Clean hands and spotless cloth­ ing are no longer regarded as the only marks of gentility: our boys study scientific agriculture but they also farm : our girls not only study the chemistry of cooking, but they cook— and bake— and still more surprising what they cook and bake can act­ ually be eaten— is decidedly appetizing. What then is the part of the Normal School in this modern­ ized scheme o f education? The Normal School may justly claim that it was a pioneer in this type of education. It raised its voice nearly a half century ago to declare that .science and art are inseparable in practical life ; it asserted that there was both a science and an art o f teaching; and that a knowledge o f both was necessary to the successful teacher. The Normal School urged that if a knowledge of the materials with which he worked wasi necessary to the builder who worked with stone and iron or brick or marble»Ya knowledge o f his. materials was still more necessary to the man who worked with immortal minds and fash­ ioned them for good or evil for all eternity. It declared that the teacher should know the subject matter he attempted to teach, but that he should also know how to teach it. It objected to the employment of young people without experience who must go into the school room, and through a course of experiments find out how to teach. The Normal school system had its enemies who antagonized it openly ; it had those who stabbed it in secret because they realized that with the adoption of its standards their occupation would be gone. But the system has triumphed; it has seen the ideas it represented accepted by nearly every pro­ fession. What then is its place in the modern scheme of educa­ tion ? I conceive that the answer must b e : The Normal School still exists primarily for the preparation o f teachers, but as the 8 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD office of teacher has been magnified:—as his responsibilities have been increased, soThe work of the Normal School has been en­ larged and increased. This means that the Normal School must meet the changing ideas and ideals in education. More and more the duties that formerly belonged to the home and the church areffieing forced upon the schools.. W e may regret that changing economical conditions which make both father and mother wage earners, place the physical and moral as well as the intellectual education of the child upon the School; but we cannot change economic conditions, or let the children go without guidance. W e may wish that the church and the Sunday School could assume the moral and ethical training of the boys and girls o f our cities and towns, but the fact remains that, in our' large cities more than one-third of the children are not under the beneficial effects of church or Sunday School. The school through its organized machinery must assume a large share in this ethical training or the young will drift into schools of vice open everywhere. The Normal School then must recognize these changed con­ ditions and train its students to meet them. The Normal School must care for the intellectual development of it students. Its course of instruction must be thorough; it must see to it that the students who leave its walls are well grounded in the common school branches, the foundation of all successful endeavor. Its scope of instruction must mean familiarity with languages be­ sides one’s own. It must unlock the sciences to the students and teach them the Story of animate and inanimate creation: it must trace the development of the great nations of the w orld: it must deal with mathematics— but above all it must open the great lit­ erature of the English-speaking nations to every student. Sure­ ly no man or woman who would teach your child or mine should have less than this equipment Surely too it is the least that the state can give its future citizens— if they are to be proficient, prosperous and happy. Much if not all of this work,the public school can give, and I believe that it is the duty of the Normal School to give credit to work that has been efficiently done in the High Schools of the first grade in our towns and cities and give credit to the students from schools o f lower grades for the work that such schools are able to do thoroughly; but no school short of the first grade can teach the advanced sciences adequate­ ly and seldom can these schools give (Sufficient time to literature. THE N O R M A R LSH2HOt ) E HESAL D 9 history and language. Thé time may come when through more systematic teaching and better équipment, High Schools may be able to relieve Normal Schools of the academic work they are compelled to do ; but that time is not yet come and until it does come the Normal School must be prepared to give thorough in­ struction in all the branches of the elementary and the High School curriculums. Thèse branches must be taught with spec­ ial reference to";the fact that the majority o f the students will teach them in turn'to qjhersT. The method of teaching in a Nor­ mal School must be thoroughly pedagogically sound. But the Normal School must give more than an academic education ; it must recognize that teaching is a profession based on certain laws as definitely apprehended as those upon which law or medicine is based. The teacher must know the nature of the mind to be educated. He must know the laws of mental growth, the relation o f mind and body, the method o f dealing with the abnormafpchild— in short he mush* know psychology, not as an abtruséfciencif but as a subject1to be mastered and ap­ plied in his: daily work as a teacher. He must know the best that has been thought and written by the great teachers o f the world he must know what ideals have dominated in the history of the past and he must know wherein those ideals were defective in the light of experience. These branches and all others necessary tb effective teaching must be in the curriculum of the Normal SchooK 1' Again the Nromâl School must be a great experimental school where new theorieÿm education and new methods of instruction are tried out. It must test, in the light o f psychology and pedagogy, the widely varying theories as to the best methods of teaching, reading, spelling, arithmetic, etc. It should try these oüt and should be able to show definite results to the teachers and superintendents in the district. The Model School should represent the product of all that is good in education, the survival of the1fittest under the guidance of skilled teachers who make constant1inspection of the work that is here done by the student teachers. These then are two important duties of the Normal School— to provide sound academic instruction and to provide for pro­ fessional training. Surely these are important enough to justify the existence of the Normal School. But there are still other duties; incumbent upon it. Since teaching means more than imparting; 10 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD knowledge, the Normal School must train its teachers to be socially efficient men and women—,teachers in the social life o f their community— in short it must train those who are to be teachers how to live completely. It must then give instruction in manual training so as to coordinate hand and brain. It must train the young woman how to cook, to bake, to set a table, to adorn a house with proper pictures and statuary, how to sew :— in short to do all the things that a woman ought to be able to do in the care of her household. I believe it should go further and not neglect those duties that are associated with motherhood and the care of children, for in these days— when we hear so much about the emancipation of woman, let us emphasize the fact that real emancipation for woman lies through her ability to do well the duties that nature and society recognize as essentially womanly. Think my friends what it means to your children to be under the care of a woman so trained as distinguished from one whose knowledge of life is limited to a few books partially mastered. Since agriculture enters so largely into the life of our people it should enter into their education. It is the business of the Normal School ¿to give thorough, practical instruction to the students so that they may go out prepared to teach this subject properly in their school® School gardens will soon be a part of every sch ool: the Normal School should be alert to its opportunities. It should know and promulgate the results of the experiments that the government has made. In , short the Normal School must train for social efficiency. The Normal School must demand a high standard of life and living from its; students. The faculty of a Normal School must be men and women of a high type, of broad views and wide sympathies; they must not measure their labors by hours or days; they must be free from petty jealousies that destroy clear­ ness' of vision; their highest desire must be service. They must be an inspiration to the students, who must themselves catch, a glimpse of the vision; must be able to see the pos­ sibilities open to the unkempt boy and the slow thinking girl: who can face discouragement with a cheerful smile and still look forward for better things. The Normal School must recognize . that its duty is not to prepare for teaching, but to guard the children of the state from men and women who are impure or vicious. Certainly no principal of a Normal School has a moral THE N O R M A L ' %S C II O 0 L H E R A L, D üa right to append his name to a diploma of a teacher guilty of the use of intoxicating liquor or who is impure in life. So I assert that it is the business, of the Normal School, to placé the profes­ sion of teaching on a high mo|j|l plane. In doing this the Nor- , mal School must not; demand monastic,seclusion on the, part of its students. It must recognize that they are, social beings des­ tined to take an active part in the work of society. Men and wo­ men will mingle together in rfal life: in like manner so should the students mingle in a school whose great aim is not only to teach ¿ m p le t e fe in g i but to. teach others as, well how to.live '.completely. For this reason the Normal School must attend to the social life of itsystudents ; it mus|irisist upon that conduct and relation between the sexes that characterize the real lady and gentlemen. This cannot b £ secured by prohibiting young, men and women from meeting together socially, from talking to -( gether or mingling upon the campus under the oversight of the faculty. Over,'attention to social matt^ B in school life in al­ ways to be :Condemned but scarcely less short sighted is a sys­ tem of education tirât goes to the other side and negleçts/pt al­ together. The easier method of discipline is to forbid all social meeting between students,, but we believe it is shirking a respon­ sibility that a training school must assume. It is hard to unde..-^ stand the attitude o f parents and educators who, while recogniz­ ing- the "social instinct as present in every child, flatter them­ selves that they-can d en ^ itj^ expression at will. Experience proves that where sedusiop or segregation of the;sexes is in­ sisted upon there are clandestine meetings with constant scan­ dals,, because the whole idea of sex relationship has been misu n d e rst§ d & y young men and women. Is it. not far K i Ui _ to produce in the -School as far as possible the social life of the community into which the -students are soon to enter ?. So my friends I believe it is the business, of the Normal School to. set,' that its students are given a thorough, education, in academic. rSUbjectsIp to provide professional training,.in the “science and art jf f teachings to:investigate,Thoroughly all new plans or,systems of education; to guard the mopulsripf.the teach­ ing profession and « g i v e that social training that is necessary Hr every man or woman. Surely,the Normal School has an import­ ant place in our modern system of education. .And new, Members, of the .Graduating Class,yl congratulate^ 12 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD you know the fact that you have finished four years o f labor and stand in this presence, the first representatives of the four year course in this school. While I congratulate you on the com­ pletion of this campaign, I call upon you to enlist for another war— a war against ignorance, vice and their attendant evils. The campaign will be a long one, and your progress will often be impeded by difficulties you must meet and overcome. Trials and discouragements will meet you but you are enlisted in a campaign in which you must persevere or confess yourselves unworthy of the trust reposed in you. In such a cause “ To doubt would be disloyalty To falter should be sin.” Go on. You bear the banners of the old school; your num­ bers are not many, but to you the community looks with special interest 'because you are the first to bear the banners of the Ad­ vanced Course. A K rge class will follow you next year and others will crowd after y o u : but this is your day of triumph. The o ld ’school welcomes you to the ranks of the Alumni. You bear the hope, the good wishes of your Alma Mater. May suc­ cess and happiness crown all your labors. N O R M AL L IT E R A R Y S O C IE T Y The year 1913-14 has been a very successful one for Normal Literary Society, both in its literary work and from a financial point o f view. The attendance has been good and the programs have been well rendered. Those who took part in the Reunion proved themselves very capable entertainers. At our last meeting, we were glad to have many members of the Clio Society join us. Officers for next year were elected and inaugurated. It is of all importance to the society and to each member that he takes his part every time, and gives it careful preparation. Many of our greatest men have received their most valuable training in Literary Societies just like Normal. Let us all try to make next year the “ best ever” in the his­ tory of Normal; and let us also try to make every day the best THE NORMAL SCHOOL HE R A L D 13 day of our lives, by doing our work; well and having some en­ thusiasm about us as the poet teaches us •;A “ Trueiworth lies in being not. seeming, In doing each day that goes by Some little good -not in, dreaming O f great things to do by and by.” Ada Lee Lehman, ’ 16, Secretary P H IL O M A T H E A N L IT E R A R Y S O C IE T Y As the school year nears it’s close we can look back over a comparatively successful year in our society... The work on the whole has been of the.same nature as has. been done in previous years, but there seems to be a new spirit springing up among our members. There has been more in­ terest shown in the quality of the work that has been done than in the quantity. The members have tried more and more to make the work of practical value. On the first Friday of May, we had our thirty-eighth an­ nual reunion; as usual an enthusiastic interest was shown in the' fete; many persons who came to the chapel were turned away on account of the crowded conditions. The Honorable Arthur R. Rupley of Carlisle was President, and Mrs. Emily S, ClevergSS, of Shippensburg was Secretary for the occasion. During the year interest has been manifeste'®n the society by the former members as well as the present inen 1bers,.v.i1any of the former members have visited us throughout the year.

Mr. Clifford Devereux and Miss Grace Fisher with their strong supporting company gave two of Shakespeare’s plays before large audiences in the afternoon and evening. The afternoon play was “ As You Like It.” In the evening“ Twelth Night” with its beautiful scenery of woody bower delighted us. Yes, of course, some liked one better than the other; but all agreed that they liked them both. All our plans were made to have the plays on the campus under the old trees'; but we planned without the weather depart­ ment, for the “ gentle rain from heaven’Ljust simply flooded this Valley all afternoon. The opportunity was afforded to be “ game” and to show our optimism; so we brought “ Birnam wood to Dunsinane” after this, manner, some Sophomore *boys hewed him down a bough and bear’t before him (Act. V.— Scene IV., Macbeth). W e transformed the chapel stage into the forest o f Arden; we forgot!the heated room ; and in our imaginations we sat in the cool shades of the forests o f England in the long ago. T oo fewfjsuch opportunities such as this come to our stu­ dents. So, already,. Dr. Lehman has entered into negotiations with the same company for next year. BASE BALL In reviewing the base ball season one cannot help but feel that the boyS'representing the Normal were very successful. T he schedule of games was one o f the hardest played. Not a game could be considered won until it had been played and the last man was out. Credit for the season’s work must be given Coach Snyder and his efficient work in drilling and coaching the boys in team work1. With only four of last years varsity in .school and a very small number of boys; to choose from the problem confronting the coach was indeed difficult. Hard work and co-operation between the members of the team and coach solved the problem in a satisfactory manner. THE NORMAL SCHOOL 27 HERALD The weakest spot was in the catching department and in order to bolster up that important position the team had to be shifted several times during the season. When shifted to new positions the boys worked faithfully to carry out instuctions and to become familiar with the new duties; and this willing­ ness on their part was very encouraging to the coach and the management. The first game was a practice game with the Shippensburg Y. M. C. A. and resulted in an easy victory for Normal, 18 to 1. Baltimore City College was next and they arrived fresh from a victory over Mercersburg Varsity. The boys put up a splendid game and Baltimore succumbed 9—5.

In this game the boys had a record of nine stolen bases, Our ancient enemy Conway Hall gave us our next defeat after going'into extra innings. Errors in the field were again responsible. Score 4— 3. The following week, however, we secured revenge as the boys journeyed to Carlisle and trimmed Conway by a score of 8— 6. The features of the game were the hitting of Barnhart and the fielding of Lehman and Cocklin. Team work was pre-eminent, the boys not only working the .squeeze play but also the double squeeze. On Decoration Day, Millersville Normal after a splendidly played game won a doubtful victory by a score o f 5— 3. A team from Chambersburg was next on the list, but for some unknown reason they failed to put in appearance.. The big game with Bloomsburg Normal was played on June 10th. Team work won this game for Normal. W ith the game half over and Bloomsburg leading 6— 4 the boys rallied,sand in one big inning tallied five runs and put the game on ice.

Nothing was done until Tuesday of Commencement week when the Alumni was to be played. Rain unfortunately put a stop to this game when Normal came in for its half of the third inning. The score stood SL—2 in favor of Normal when umpire Roily Smith called the game. F IE L D D A Y On Monday afternoon of Commencement a field meet was gotten up for the benefit of the school Y . M. C. A. It proved to be a very Successful and interesting event. The boys en­ tered the different numbers on the program with no training, but what they lacked in that direction they made up in spirit. The merchants of the town were appealed to for prizes for the different events and responded cordially and heartily. The distinctive feature o f the day was Barnhart’s work in the pole vault, he clearing the bar successfully at 9 ft.

Our little bid town was full up. They were true sports just as they always were, and' they had a good big time and were thoroughly happy about •being crowded out. 32 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD COM M ENCEM ENT W E E K SATURD AY Banquet to the Senior Class The Trustees and Faculty followed their usual custom of giving us a flying start on the happy Commencement-weekWay. O f course, each year the banquet is the best ever given; but this year there were additional reasons : the Senior Class, the first one to be graduated from the Four Year course, was small in number; again, the “ Department of Good Eatsjg was new and had a reputation to establish. At any rate the banquet was fine ; the room beautiful in class colors ; everybody was in prime banquet-moòd; and we were off on the Forty First Com­ mencement week. Dr: Lehman and, Mrs. Eldon led the way to the dining room. There followed the wise and very dignified faculty and the beau­ tiful and handsome members of the Class of 1914. Dr. Eldon re­ turned thanks for health and the good things of life, and thè ban­ quet was begun with hàppy talk and laughter— the State Board cloud was lifted, the hard work was done— why not be happy. They- say our eating average was high, most of us qualify­ ing for first honors with, a grade of from 96 to 105. However, Dr. Lehman seemed to feel the- responsibility o f concluding the feast and called on Miss Harriet Wylie, one of the Class Deans. She responded to the toast “ Servo,” the class motto. Her toast alternated with wit and serious thought and was roundly ap­ plauded. Dr. Martin spoke on Reminiscences, referring feelingly to his happy life with the faculty and students of Cumberland Valley State Normal School. W e were saved from becoming too serious for so happy an occasion by the Hon. Quin T. Mickey, who represented the Board of Trustees. While Mr. Mickey’s subject may sound seri­ ous to you, we assure you that he made more fun out of “ Philology||than any of us had ever enjoyed before. Prof. A. B. W allize, responded for the faculty on “ The Teacher with a Sense of Humor.” ': Members of thè Senior Class, the guests of honor, who re­ sponded, were Miss M. Ruth Groninger, President, and Mr. C. Si Rice. Miss Groninger spoke on “ The Class of 1914>” giving its history and telling o.f its hopes to prove worthy by useful service. “ Our Mother,” was the subject Mr. Rice eloquently handled. THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD 33 W e have three mothers to whom we owe allegience for care in our helplessness; mother who goes down into the “ Valley of the Shadow” to give us life ; our school mother -who trains and fits us for useful life ; and. mother earth who receives us at life’s close, to restful sleep through the ages. Dr. Lehman was a witty toast master who kept us laughing by his keen’Sayings at introduction and humorous comments: at the close of each response. At eleven o’clock the happy Occasion was.brought to a most fitting conclusion by the banqueters- stand­ ing and singing the School. O de,'“ Alma Mater.” 'W h ilst we banqueted thet undergraduatesAdanced in the “ Gym” to delightfuggmusic furnished by' Flinders orchestra of Chambersburg. “ A ll-H a n d s-T o-B ed/j was ..sounded and; we rested for further events, I SUNDAY Last Meeting of the Sabbath School The Sabbath School brought its work of the year to a close at 9,30 on Sunday morning. Prof. J. S. Heiges, Dean of the School, and Supt. of the Sabbath Schooijipresided. The atten­ dance was large at this, the last meeting of the year for most of us, but the last for life for others of our number. Prof. Heiges has conducted the. school for several years with unusual success; and this largely attended and Spiritual final meeting made him feel that his personal sacrifices had been worth while many times over. '■ Baccalaureate Sermon On Sunday evening the members of fhe Senior Class assem­ bled for the Baccalaureate Sermon which was preached by our former Principal, Dr. S. A. Martin, Professor of Moral Philos­ ophy at Lafayette College, Easton, Pa. The occasion was, |fsy always, a beautiful and ffplemn one. In accordance with the custom of former >year|| the members of the class entered in procession and marched to their places in the Auditorium singing Integer Vitae. The Reverend Mr. D. W . Allison of the Church of the Brethren of Shippensburg, offered the opening prayer. The singing of the DSxology and a hymn was followed by a reading 34 THE; NORMAL, SCHOOL HERALD o f Scripture by the Reverend S. S. Wylie, Pastor Emeritus of Middle Spring Presbyterian Church. Mr. W ylie chose as his reading the fourth chapter of Proverbs. The Student Chorus then >sang an anthem, after which Dr. Martin addressed the Class and their friends in a most fitting and touching sermon, taking for his text Lamentations 3:27. “ It Is Good for a Man that He Bear the Yoke in His Youth.” As the members of the Senior Class had done a large part o f their work under Dr. Martin’s administration he felt and ex­ pressed a special interest in each one. He concluded his sermon by addressing the class as follow s: TO TH E CLASS O F 1914: W e often hear it said that this age in which we live is an age o f skepticism, an age of unbelief; of breaking down the old beliefs and tearing up of old foundations. I cannot consent to this description of our time. O f course all ages of growth, all times of progress and de­ velopment must be to some degree destructive. “ The old order changeth, giving place to the new ; fo r God fulfills himself in many ways.” But, in the midst of all this changing and decay of forms and formula, truth abides un­ changed. Your text books change, but the principles of mathe­ matics are eternal. Laws change, but justice is immutable, and creeds have been revised, and will be, many times, for we know in part and prophesy in part. But God and Jesus Christ and God’s truth are the same, and their years shall not fail. I doubt if ever men saw truth more clearly, or even held the great essential directness of our faith with more intelligent as­ sent. I believe there is a w ider,clearer, better knowledge and belief of Christian truth than ever there was before. But we are a generation o f spoiled children, wilful and peevish and wayward. It is not faith that we lack but fidelity, loyalty, and devotion to the truth as God gives us to see the truth. This is my message to you, guide your lives, don’t drift. Fight the good fight, not as one that beateth the air, but, with the faith that means fidelity, stand for the faith that .means the truth of G od; and the grace of God shall keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge of Him. After Dr. Martin's charge to the class, a’ hymn was sung, THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD 35 and the Reverend Dr. I. A. MacDannald of the Shippensburg Church o f God pronounced the benediction. M ONDAY The Last Chapel Service of the Year Last meetings always bring with them sadness. T o some the last chapel means final parting from loved scenes and close friendships. Our last meeting together aS faculty and school made us quiet and thoughtful! but it was a time of closer fellow­ ship. So we were a very sober looking crowd who assembled to hear Dr. Lehman read to us fo r the last time this year from God’s w ord ; to sing together the dear old songs; and to unite in our Lord’s Prayer. Alfgten o’clock the Seniors in cap and gown marched into chapel and took seats yn front,, to the right of the center aisle. Undergraduates and faculty took their, places, and the usual ex­ ercises were held. At their conclusion Dr. Lehman, Principal o f the school, introduced Prof. J. S. Heiges, Dean of Normal, and one of the Deans of the Senior Class, who delivered his last mes­ sage to those about to go out from the old school. Prof. Heiges’ theme was “ Industry as the Means ,to Success'in Useful Ser­ vice!” By illustration from the dives of men and women who have best served their fellows, he proved that not genius but un­ ceasing work had. brought- accomplishment. He urged the class to adopt high ideals and -to push with all the energy of their' be­ ing their chosen work. Prof. Heiges was earnest and convincing in his plea for doing good service; and he was heard with pleas­ ure and profit,, not only by the Senior Class, but by all who were present. A t th e-close-of the service the audience remained seated while the Seniors marched out from chapel for the last time as an undergraduate'class . ■% Exhibit of the Art, Domestic Science, and Manual Training De­ partments— Art Tea One who has been visiting the exhibits of these departments for more years than the ordinary .human has fingers on two hands said that the display of art and the artistic was the best he had 36 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD ever seen. ; On every hand we heard comments favorable to the work of these departments in charge of Miss M. Irene Huber and Prof. Frost. M iss Huber, as is her custom,:;/received those who cam e; Mrs. Ezra Lehman and Mrs. Arthur B. Wallize presided over the tea cups; pretty young ladies served hot and cold tea, cakes, and sherbet; and everybody enjoyed pencil and crayon work, and the skill of needle and shop. The crowd was so large that not nearly all could see'the work on display during the afternoon, therefore the room was open to the public during the entire evening. Students’ Commencement Recital At eight o’clock on Monday evening, the Senior students in Music, delighted their friends with a most excellent 'recital. From the first/number to the last one the audience was held in closest, attention in spite of the unusually warm night. The chapel was; crowded to the limit of its seating capacity with stu­ dents, townspeople, and Alumni, who had by thiptime arrived in great numbers.

A t ten oM ock, Updegrove’s orchestra struck up a stirring m arch; there was a turning of heads on the part of the great crowd seated be­ fore the platform ; a hushed murmur rustled through and about the audience) and, led by stately Miss M. Ruth Groninger, Pres­ ident of the first1class in the new Pour Year Course, the Seniors in cap and gown marched across the campus from the west end of Old Main to the east end of this hall, down the aisle between the divided guests, and up on the platform-^the fun was on. The President’s address of welcome was explanatory, full of welcome, to the point. Then came the orator of the day, who, in the language of somebody, “ cut loose the real stuff.” The members of the class took a noticeable brace; there was stiffening of neck muscles; a tense expression•of feature stole over the stolidity of “ Meek’s” fa ce; Snyder looked more sheepish, if possible, than ever; and the Class Historian let loose a broad­ side of fun and “ twits” that made mother and father wish they had their hopefuls at home and hidden from the gaze o f that curi­ ous and too hilarious crowd. With dignity and grace was the Mantle bestowed and acceptedfly the chief “ bestower” and “ ac­ ceptor’’-—All Seemed well along the “ Branch.” Rife is a very deceptive and most uncertain proposition any­ way! The class settled down, carefree, happy, and smiling. Most of those about to be sent out upon an unsuspecting world had never met any will but parental or “ teachorial.” No they did not know what a Class W ill was like or some of them had never come. That was some particularly generous will. It gave away what never belonged, to those who didn’t want it and wished they weren’t there. 38 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD Miss Nelle M. Beidle presided at the piano while her class­ mates sang the Class Song. Miss Beidle had written the words and music, and she guided the class through the beautiful strains with the assurance of a poet and a musician. At the conclusion of >the exercises the audience remained seated while the class marched away to plant the “ Ivy.” After the Seniors had passed, the crowd followed across the grounds to hear Miss Pauline E. Drawbaugh deliver the Ivy Oration.

On Monday many ot the younger o f the C. V. S. N. S. elect returned; but on Tuesday was the great big return that Dr. Lehman and his assistants had hoped for. This was Tuesday, June 23rd. The crowd was here and continued to arrive. All we needed now was weather properly adjusted to our plans. After luncheon at the noon hour classes began to “ reune” .. ’94 conducted their’s with dignity and in secret; but T2 was open and above-board, right out on the campus where any who wished could see and hear. T2 must have spent all their spare time on that program for it required all the school officials and 40 THE M O RMAL S CH 0 0 E HESALD_ the special policeman to break it up so that the class could join in the “ Alumni Parade.” Alumni Procession The:f>arade” ! Well to begin with Dr. Lehman had pro­ vided tags with class numerals on them so that those long sep­ arated, whose locks had become unlocked, might identify eachother. Then! Yes then! The 1.08 Strain from Harrisburg brought Dr. Samuel Z. Shope, our Chief Marshal. (This is •jfletween us|gDr. Shope up in his neck'jgjif woods has made some reputation as, an eye, ear, and nose specialist; but we only re­ member him as the greatest marshall fever at the head of the elect of the earth. Dr. Shope wore the red and blue sash and baldric; two youths carried the school banner; the Edward Shippen Military Band played the march;;,the class of ’74, fol­ lowed by||heir fellow Alumnites fell in line behind-the band; and down the path and across the campus they paraded. More than 700 o f our Alumni were in line with banners flyin ggth e most stirring and inspiring sight the Cumberland VSlley had ever witnessed. Around they went! Up “ The Long Path T o Ed­ ucation!” In front of M ain! Across to the stand! All o f the 700 in line, tramp, tramp, while more than 600 friends looked . on and applauded. Alumni Rally and Business Meeting Seated on the stage with the officers of the Alumni A s­ sociation and the speakers was the Class o f ’74, the class of honor. President A. B. Crook, ’93, of Williamstown, called the meet­ ing to order and delivered a spirited address. He was followed by Hon. Filmore Maust, ’74, of Carlisle; Prof. Ralph Jacoby, ’04, of Meclianicsburg; W . A. Nickles, ’76, o f Shippensburg; Dr. Ezra Lehman, ’89, PrincipalJ|>f the Cumberland Valley-State Normal S ch ool; Supt. H. M. Roth, ’89, of Adams County; Supt. J. H. Rebfer, ’91, of W aynesboro; Supt. H. J. Wickey, ’93, of Middletown; and Supt. L- E. Smith, ’02, of Franklin County. Each speaker was' a son of Old Normal, and each was filled with a' Son’s love for his Alma Mater. All offered their services to help Dr. Lehman make this school the best Normal School in Pennsylvania. Each one had some good suggestion about the “ H ow ” it can be done. W e wish it were possible to grve you each speech that was made so that if you were so unfortunate as to miss this greatest THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD 41 of rallies you might cateh the spirit of love and devotion that prevailed. W e cannot do this; slut we will give you Dr. Leh­ man’s message to the Alumni, in another part of the Herald. After the Rally Meeting, a business session of the Alumni Association was held and the following business transacted: It was passed unanimously that a committee be appointed to make a material contribution to the school. Pres. Crook appointed these to serve: Prof. J. S. Heiges, ’91; Q. T. Mickey, ’83; Jane McCullough, ’99; Supt. H. M. Roth, ’89; and Dee Hale, ’ 10. The Presidents of the eight county organizations were appointe^iia^yisory members to assist the committee in devising plans toward which the financial energies of the Alum­ ni may be directed to greatest advantage to the school. Thesb; officers wese chosen to guide the affairs of the association for the ensuing year: Pres., Supt. J. H. Reb:er,.’91, o f W aynesboro; Secretary, Helen; Pi; Wise, ’08, o f N ormal ; and Treasurer,- Hon. Q. T. Mickey, ’83, of Shippensiburg. The report of the treasur­ er showed a balance of more than $300 in his hands at this time. The report also showed that worthy students-are being aided. The Marshall and the band w orked; and we fell in behind, en route to see the Alumni-Varsity Base Ball Game. W e reach­ ed the first stage of the third inning when the rain man worked so vigorously that the contest ended then and there, with the score board showing 9— 2. Guess in whose favor! Ask Prof. Briner, ’01, o f Carlisle, if you are not a sure guesser. Alumni Entertainment ■Well, this .same rain to which we have referred, made step singing impossible. The famous Updegrove orchestra discours­ ed sweet music on the veranda while we held sweet commune with our fellows. At eight o’clock came a great treat. For the Alumni En­ tertainment we had engaged Miss Sarah Lemer, Violinist, of Harrisburg. Miss Demer was assisted by Mr. Newell Albright, Pianist, A critic and violinist of no meager ability said to the. writer that Miss Demer was the best violinist he had ever heard in Shippensburg. At the Close o f Miss Lemer’s recital we wended our way to the gymnasium where Updegrove’s orchestra made sweet dreamy music to which we danced or listened until the day had no more hours, then to bed to rest for the morrow. 42 THE NORMAL SCHOOL HERALD W EDNESDAY Commencement Commencement morning came, as such mornings are wont to do, with its heat and languor. Faces that usually were full of animation how showed wear. A g.oodly number o f friends of the class had found places before Dr. Lehman in his Doctor’s robes accompanied by the assisting ministers, and followed by the class of 1914 marched down the aisle. The class of 1912 came last of all and found seats provided on the right as one enters. These looked more dignified and much more subdued than two years be­ fore we remember them as marching down the same aisle for their graduation certificates. Time and the world have done more for them than the faculty had done during their student days. They had come back after two years of successful teach­ ing for their permanent teacher’s diplomas. After an earnest prayer by the Reverend Frank S. Fry of the Reformed church of Shippensburg, Mr. C. S. Rice, vale­ dictorian of the class, delivered a thoughtfully prepared oration on “An A pology for Nature.” ’ Miss M. Ruth Groninger fol­ lowed with a well interpreted recitation, “ The Death Disk.” A student chorus, under the direction of Miss Hubbell, sang the difficult cantata, “ The Wreck of the H e s p e r u s a n d Miss Marga­ ret Joy Houston concluded with a well written essay on “ The Sup|Hluous Woman.” After music by the orchestra Dr. Lehman delivered a masterly interpretation of “ The Place of the Normal School»! n Modern Education.” This address is the kind one wants to read in the quiet of his home, so we are printing it in another part of this Herald. As p roof o f their love for their school, through Mr. Albert C. Garland as their spokesman, the class of 1912 presented a met­ al flag pole and a flag. Dr. Lehman accepted the generous gift in behalf o f his school and thanked the class for giving what we so much needed to show our patriotism and train our students to love their country. After the conferring o f the degrees and diplomas the audi­ ence stood and sang “ Alma M ater;” The Reverend W . B. Picken of the Methodist church of Shippensburg, pronounced the bene­ diction ; and the Forty-First Annual Commencement became a part of the hisfory o f the Old School on the Hill.
