with every old Callie hard at it from
the word “go.”
Altho we have fewer new students in school than there
were last year, we bettered last year’s
record by getting a few more new
members than the “’17s” did. An
unusually large percent of these new
Callies are talented either musically

Our business meetings and programs have been of great interest.
We had our reception for new members several weeks ago, and il was a
splendid success.
Both the program
and the “eats” were excellent. We
have had two special programs, one
a “Mock Wedding,” and the other a
“Patriotic Program,” and on the 20th

mounted until thirty-four were

prompt co-operation of the doctors, and the trained nurse of
the school, Mrs. Holmes, with
her assistants, speedily brought
the epidemiic under control so
that the last case had developed
by October 2nd.
The soldierly
courage of the students was
splendid throughout. There was
no suspension. One of the first
victims attached was Miss Elsie

ago it was almost unknown in elementarj’’ schools.
Up to that time
writing had been a subj'ect of various
and disastrous experiments whenever
it

received any attention at

all.

Previous to the advent of the Palmer Method, it was thot that learning to
write was merelj’ a process of copying
from tj’pe forms without regard to the

method of execution.
No definite
method of development in movement
and application was understood; in
fact, school authorities had no technical knowledge of the subject, and
but little, if any, interest in it.
A
wonderful change has taken place in
sentiment among school officials and
teachers, and the requirements are

becoming definite and rigid. The almost spontaneous acceptance of the
Palmer Method in the public schools
of America found teachers and principals unprepared to (handle the subject rightly. This condition has created a demand for supervision of the

At the conclusion of the dinner, the
conference was inaugurated, Dr. D. J.
Waller, Jr.,
introducing the chairman, Superintendent L. E. McGinnes,
of Steelton, Pa., memiber of the State
(Board of Education.
In opening the
conference. Superintendent McGinnes
outlined the purposes of the gathering, calling attention to the fact that
this conference was unique in the annals of Pennsylvania educational history.
He then went on to state that
the purpose of the conference was to
bring about closer co-operation between the public school system, as represented by the superintendents and
principals, and the
normal schools.
The meeting was then thrown open,
the following gentlemen being called
upon for informal expressions of their
views:
Superintendent I. H. Mauser,
(Northumberland County; Superintendent,
Wm. W. Spigelmyer, Union
County: Superintendent Joseph Howerth, Shamokin; Superintendent H. U.
Nyhart, New''port township; Superintendent Fred W. Diehl, Montour County: Superintendent L. P. Bierly, West

Waller, Jr., Prof. C. H. Albert, Prof.
W. B. Sutliff, Prof. O. H. Bakeless.
James Brown, Secretary of the Board
of Trustees
of the Normal

centered
around the imperative need of com-

The matter of a summer session at
the normal school then came under
discussion.
It was felt that the summer session would 'be of great value
in that it would
give public school
teachers an
opportunity to improve
their pedagogical training, and thus
help to solve the problems encountered both in rural and town systems. It
was also felt that the summer session

year.

Charles Miller, trustee of the norschool, offered a resolution to the
effect that the
superintendents and
principals of this Normal School District organize to forward this work of

mal

closer co-operation.
The resolution
was unanimously adop'ted and it was
decided that there should be an an-

nual meeting, the following officers
being elected for the ensuing year:

On Sept. 13, 1919, a reception was
