The Shippensburg State Normal School is to-day
recognized as one of the leading Normal Schools in
the country.
This recognition is due in the first place
to the fact that its graduates are as a rule skillful and
successful teachers.
It is due in the second place to
the fact that the energy of the school has been
chiefly directed toward the education of teachers for
the public schools.
It is due in the third place to
the fact that the school keeps abreast of the times.
The legislature at its last session made an appro
priation for the continuance of free tuition in the
Normal Schools of the state.
This makes the ex
penses of a Normal School course very low to those
who are preparing to teach.
There is no longer any
excuse for the young teachers of Pennsylvania being
unprepared.
The Shippensburg Normal School is
taking excellent care of the training and education of
all who are now within her walls and can take the
same kind of care of many more if they come.
The Winter Term opens January 4th, 1904, and the
Spring Term April 11, 1904.
If you are interested
in a Normal School education do not fail to write for

Ube Urue TEeacber
Every child is a young savage. Let a tribe of red men kidnap
the child of the most cultured and refined parents and bear him
away to the forests to grow up in a tepee, and he will smear his
body with paint, don a blanket, raise the warhoop and brandish
the scalping knife with all the relish of the wildest and most
cruel Indian.
A short time ago there passed through this state a red man
with the dress and bearing of a refined gentleman, and he was
able with his eloquence to stir the minds and hearts of a large and
intelligent audience. This gentleman was at one time a child of
the forest, a papoose, an Indian boy going in and out of a wig
wam, his narrow and rude home, with no thought of any other
destiny than that of his dusky ancestors. But an angel hand led
him out of the forest, washed his body of the foul ointment, re
placed the blanket with a clean suit of clothes, trimmed his hair,
put hope and courage in his heart, made him able to stand before
men, and move them with his wit and philosophy.
W hy is it that one child remains a savage and the other, with
a far inferior prospect in the beginning, develops into a refined
and noble man worthy to sit down with the great, the learned,
and the wise ?
Education makes all the difference there is in the world be
tween the highest and the lowest. This education is in great
part entrusted to the teachers of the public schools, and to the
labor of these teachers is due our high standing among the civi
lized nations of the world. If the character of the instruction im
proves from year to year, the standard of national enlightenment
will rise accordingly. Our great concern then should be centered
in the preparation of the teacher.
The representative teacher of today may eclipse the teacher of
a generation ago, but he must not rest content with present at-
2
T H £ NO R M A L SCHOOL HEJRALD
tainments. As long as he remains in the field he must continue
to delve and dig and to enrich mind and heart with the special
treasures of his possession. No one can give more than he pos
sesses. No one can teach more than he knows. If, then, a young
man or woman, who comes fresh from the door of the public
school, knowing only what he learned there, undertakes to teach
that same school the following year, retrogression must almost
inevitably be the result. Every teacher whether he has attended
a higher school of learning or not must study and plan and
earnestly desire to make himself effective or else he will stand still
or fall behind the standard of his times. There is enough in the
business of school teaching to enlist the whole heart.
A distinguished college professor testified that he never went
to his work without first invoking God’s spirit to rest upon him
and help him in his efforts to impress the truth upon the minds
and hearts of the young men of the school. He became, of
course, a successful teacher, and after a while was called to the
chancellorship of one of our greatest universities.
Some years ago in a class of young men preparing for college
was one who studied under great difficulties. He was not what
we would call a correct scholar. He blundered a good deal in
recitations. A t home seven other children— brothers and sisters_
helped to make confusion during study hours. But finally he was
able to enter college and in due time was graduated. It was now
necessary for him to do something towards earning a support.
The only thing that offered at first was a low grade school in his
native town. But he taught that school with heart preparation.
He taught that school as if his pupils were born of noble blood.
He taught that school as if his welfare and its progress demanded
all his powers. When a Principal was wanted the next year for
the high school of a city of thirty thousand inhabitants, he was
chosen, although there were many applicants, experienced and
capable teachers— some of them graduates of the highest colleges
in the country. The school board had heard of his disinterested
ness, of his controlling desire to do his whole duty even in an
inferior position. A few years later he became a superintendent,
and now fills one of the most important positions in the Middle
States.
Teachers of this kind are always in demand. The world may
be accused of harshness, of lack of soul, of want of appreciation
T H E N O R M A L SCHOOL H ER ALD

of merit, but whenever it can get a good, enthusiastic, honest, in
dustrious, well trained workman, and profit by his services, it is
sure to hold on to him.
W e may easily estimate the difference in influence exerted
upon a community by two teachers— one an inexperienced, indo
lent, self satisfied, narrow minded, prejudiced youth who managed
to secure a certificate and afterwards gave himself no trouble
about further qualifying himself; the other an experienced
teacher, industrious, energetic, truth loving, studious," broad
minded, liberal, desiring knowledge for its own sake as well as
for the sake of effective and telling work in the school room.
The teacher in Goldsmith’s “ Deserted Village” illustrates the
point we would make.
“ Yet he was kind, or, if severe in aught
The love he bore to learning was in fault,
The village all declared how much he knew,
’Twas certain he could write and cipher too;
Lands he could measure, terms and tides presage,
And e’ en the story ran—that he could gauge; .
In arguing, too, the parson owned his skill,
For e’en though vanquished, he could argue-still;
While words of learned length and thundering sound, •
Amazed the gazing rustics ranged around;
And still they gazed, and sti-ll the wonder grewThat one small head could carry all he knew.”
Cowper, on the other hand, characterizes the careless, narrow
minded teacher in the following lines:
“ And seems it nothing in a father’s eye
That unimproved those many moments fly
And is he well content his son should find
No nourishment to feed his growing mind,
But conjugated verbs, and nouns declined ?
For such is all the mental food purveyed
By public hackneys in the schooling trade;
Who feed a pupil’s intellect with store
Of syntax truly, but with little more,
Dismiss their cares when they dismiss their flock,
Machines themselves and governed by a clock.”
It remains, then, for the teacher to advance steadily along the
line of his work, and not wait for the coming generation to make
the next step. It is his to push forward the work as far as possi
ble before yielding his commission to his successors. Finally it
remains for the teacher to work this miracle: to take a savage, as
it were, and so to polish his mind, soul and body that he shall
become worthy to stand before kings, and that his deeds shall be
good and great and be remembered forever.

2)c. Barton’s ©tfer for a School Song
A desire has been frequently expressed by members of the
Alumni and friends of the Cumberland Valley State Normal
School for a School Song. This was especially true at our last
Commencement which was so largely attended by members of the
Alumni who are anxious to continue and increase the prosperity
of their Alma Mater. There is much in song to arouse enthusi
asm and increase the love of the student body for the institution
with which they are at present or have been connected. To en
courage the writing of such a production, I will give to any stu
dent in the school, to any member of the Alumni, or to any one
who has at some time been a student at this institution the sum
of five dollars for the best popular school song that can be readily
set to music of some popular air. The prize will be awarded by
three competent judges.

In my old arm-chair at eventide my fancy loves to soar
To where a rustic arbor stands with wild vines climbing' o’er
And growing stately on each side two bushes filled with roses,
Both red and white,—I see them now—and there a maiden poses.
Her lips are like a rosebud red, her hair a ruddy brown,
That seems like misty shadows with the sunlight creeping down.
No wonder that in days gone by there was a war of roses—
In my heart one wages now, for ’ tis my sweetheart poses.
East night I asked her to be mine—we stood beneath the bower.
She would not answer-then— but tomorrow—with a flower.
I f red roses she should pluck, then her answer would be nay.
Like her to be romantic:—but if white, then it was aye.
What joy and rapture filled me as I gazed, with fond delight
A t my sweetheart standing in the bower plucking roses—white.
Now, in the garden spot of life ’tis at my side she poses.
Ah, think how much depended on the shade of roses !

The editors wish to make the f‘personals” of graduates one
of the most attractive features of the Herald. This is one of the
chief aims of the paper. The graduates of any school should be
held together and to their Alma Mater by some bond for mutual
interest— on the part of the Alumni to keep up old friendships
and to secure patronage for the school; and' on the part of the
school to secure better positions for its graduates. These ends
can be accomplished in the main if the Alumni will promptly re
spond when addressed for information, and help to support the
Herald by their subscriptions. The Cumberland Valley State
/Normal School is among the very best equipped institutions of its
class in the State. Its faculty, ladies’ dormitory, gentlemen’s
dormitory, gymnasium, chapel, and culinary department are the
best that can be had. Therefore, there is no reason why Ship
pensburg Normal should not stand at the front in patronage and
reputation for thorough work. We appeal to the Alumni to in
vestigate these assertions and then rally around the standard of
Old Normal. Let us be up and doing. Let your little help.
Make the reputation of the school by noble deeds and kind
words. Let us put forth a supreme effort during the year to
make the Spring Term of 1904 the largest one in the history of the
school.

sch ool h e r a l d
The Fall Term of this year has opened with a greatly in
creased attendance over the Fall Term of last year. The classes
are well organized and the additional stability which the new
course naturally gives to the Normal School system is already
very manifest in the Shippensburg Normal School. The class
spirit is improved and the increased culture effect of the new
course is very pronounced. We predict that the first decade of
the three years’ course will show a more marvelous growth in the
Normal Schools of the State than has been shown by any previous
decade in their history.
■
Fvery educational institution in order to justify its existence
must stand for something that will improve the welfare of the
people and the State. The Shippensburg Normal School, in
order to meet this demand which is made upon educational in
stitutions m general, lays great stress upon the practice-teaching
done in the Model School. This fact is becoming very generally
known and our graduates need little other recommendation in
order to secure positions than the fact that they hold the diploma
of the Shippensburg State Normal School. The members of the
graduating class teach throughout their entire Senior year in
classes of their own and under the constant guidance and super- .
vision of expert teachers. The methods in the several branches
are given by the critic teachers in the Model School, insuring
harmony of method and practice.
Sound discipline in a school is the foundation of character
building, and character is the chief aim of-all true education
When Dr. Arnold, of Rugby, said : “ It is not necessary that Rugby
be a school of three hundred students but it is necessary that it
be a school of Christian gentlemen,” he announced the policv of
every deserving school in the world. The Shippensburg Normal
School is aiming to be in harmony with this high ideal of school
discipline. Parents who send their children to this institution
feel that wholesome restraints and wise regulations are made the
safeguards of the student’s life. It is easy for the student at the
Shippensburg Normal School to do right and hard for him to do
wrong. The atmosphere of the school is morally pure and
healthful.

The Shippetisburg Normal School in its policy recognizes the
fact that the spirit of a teacher is the surest indication of his suc
cess or failure. The spirit which characterized the life of
Pestalozzi, of Arnold, of Page and of Mann is the spirit which the
school endeavors to inculcate. The institution which does not
touch the spirit of a student and give to it life is not fulfilling its
highest and best mission. The success of a teacher depends more
upon his spirit than his scholarship. To send out from our State
Normal Schools young men and women fired with the spirit of
conscientious service, earnestness in work, and love for children,
is to perform the highest service for the State of which these
schools are capable.
Baldwin says that ‘ ‘The art of teaching is to teach pupils to
think.” Another authority says that ‘ ‘In education we play
upon two instruments, memory and thought. The good schools
play upon thought and the poor ones upon memory.” Many of
the students who come to Normal School have been edu
cated previously in schools where the teachers played upon
memory. It is difficult and well nigh impossible to repair the
damage done by such schools. In the Shippensburg Normal
School the teachers play chiefly upon the thought powers of the
students and not upon their memories. Paul said: ‘ ‘I had rather
speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I
might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown
tongue. ’ ’ This thought of the great apostle would revolutionize
many schools if put in practice in them.
There is no better way to promote the interests of the Ship
pensburg State Normal School than by assisting in filling her
halls with live energetic students. No school has ever yet failed
with its rooms filled with students. A school may become too
large to do the most effective individual work but never so large
as to diminish its popularity, and the success of every institution
depends chiefly upon its popularity. Send to the Principal the
names and addresses of any persons of your acquaintance who are
thinking of taking a Normal Course. Give him also such in
formation concerning them as will enable him to correspond in
telligently and effectively with them.

T H E N O RM AL SCHOOL H ER AL D
A Normal School graduate should be known by his breadth of
literary culture. The teachers of the youth of the land should
know what good literature is and have a genuine love for it.
They are to develop the literary tastes of the children placed
under their tuition and they cannot do this successfully unless
they have correct tastes in this line themselves. To be able to
awaken a true love for the thoughts of the best writers is a power
which every teacher should covet. The pupil who has been
properly introduced into the world of books is more fortunate
than he who has been simply introduced vinto the society of the
400. To know how and what to read and to love reading is an
education in itself. To find pleasure in the reading of poetry is a
source of enjoyment which any one would be fortunate in finding.
For an institution to grow stronger year by year in this line of
work is one of the best evidences of its healthy development.
Every educated man should have at the foundation of his educa
tion abroad basis of literary culture which should be easily recog
nized in the company of educated people. The Shippensburg
Normal School has a large library of well, selected books, in the
department of English the Course in Literature is strongly empha
sized, and the other departments contribute largely to the literary
treasures of the student.
We have learned recently that one of our leading institute in
structors from one of our leading Normal Schools has made the
statement that the flowers were given their brilliant colors for the
purpose of attracting insects to them and thus causing the insect
to find the honey as it were by accident. We have no disposition
to attack the scientific accuracy of this statement but are willing
to assume it to be correct. The statement, however, carries with
it the implication that the beauty of the flower is of secondary
value, and this implication we resent. We believe God clothed
the land with beauty primarily for man’s enjoyment. The fra
grance of the flower might have been made sufficient, if it is not,
to attract the insect, but does any one suppose that God in that
event would have made the flowers any less attractive to the eye
of man? There is danger in this idea of giving to beauty a com
mercial value and placing this value above the value of its reflex
influence upon the human soul. It may be true that the brilliant
colors of the flowers attract insects to them but that is an in-
T H E N O R M A L SCHOOL H ER AL D
9
significant use of their brilliancy. “ The flower must be in the
heart before it can appear in the eye,” and it is its beauty that
touches the human heart and fixes the attention of the mind upon
it. God’s firstandlast thoughts are of man, his noblest creation,
and the brilliancy of Nature’s coloring was divinely intended for
the beautifying of the human soul. The beauty of the flower is
its chief value to the human mind and should be the first and last
lesson abstracted from it for the nurture of the mind of the child.
The following lines from Longfellow suggest the chief use of
nature for the ch ild :
“ And Nature, the old nurse,
Took the child upon her knee,
. Saying, ‘Here is a story book
Thy Father hath written for thee.’ ”
IFlew Ueacbers
Every new school year brings with it one or more new teachers.
This year the new teachers are Miss Mabel Harlow, who takes
the place in Reading and Elocution held last year by Miss Frances
A . Heath; and Miss Mary Wells, who fills the position in the
Model School which has been filled for the last four years by
Miss Mary Burns.
Miss Harlow’s home is in Fall River, Massachusetts. She is
a graduate of the Emerson School of Expression and for a time
was a classmate of Mrs. Charles M. Smith, formerly Miss Cora S.
Fitch, well known to the Normal students of a few years ago.
As preceptress and teacher Miss Harlow has already made a very
favorable impression among the students. Her experience in the
Vermont Academy, at Saxton River, Vermont, a co-educational
institution, has been a valuable preparation for her in the line of
work assigned to her in the Normal School.
Miss Harlow’s
testimonials from her former fields of labor are of the highest type
and character. As a student at Emerson she was regarded as one
of the brightest members of her class.
Miss Mary Wells comes to Shippensburg from Baldwinsville,
N. Y ., which is her home. She is a graduate of the Geneseo
State Normal School, and her standing in her classes was among
the very highest. She has taught continuously since graduating,
10
T H E N O RM AL SCHOOL H E R A L D
and in her different fields of labor she has had the kind of experi
ence which will fit her for a successful career in the Normal
School. Her testimonials from places where she has taught show
her to be a teacher of much more than ordinary skill and ability.
She has begun her work in an encouraging manner and will no
doubt prove to be a very successful teacher and a worthy suc
cessor to Miss Burns.
While a change of teachers is always regarded with some
anxiety and apprehension, yet when the vacant positions are sup
plied with teachers who give such sure promise of success as
Miss Harlow and Miss Wells give, the regret caused by the
change is no longer discomforting.

IRormal IRotes
Normal will not have a football team this season. The failure
of parents to give consent to the available players on the team,
and the lack of interest among the student body constitute the
reasons for the non-appearance of a team.
During the summer at Knoxlyn, Adams County, a very agree
able camping party, consisting mostly of our graduates, was
chaperoned by Miss Horton.
S. S. Jacks, ’97., died July 10, 1903, near Clifton, Dauphin
County, Pa. He had been ill for about two weeks with typhoid
fever.
A first class basket-ball team may be expected at Normal this
winter. A ll the men of the old team have returned, and are
ready to make the team this year the best possible. Inter-class
games will be played this fall, and immediately after the holidays
the team will play with visiting teams.
On Saturday evening, September 19, the Y . M. C. A . and
the Y . W . C. A . tendered a reception to the students. During
the fore part of the evening an interesting contest took place.
The picture of some prominent man or woman was pinned upon
each student, and every one was supplied with a blank upon
which were numbers corresponding with those on the pictures.
The names of the persons were to be written at the proper num-

bers. The recalling of the world’s famous faces was an excellent
memory drill. Out of a possible hundred and twenty-five Miss
Garcia Bechtel of the Middle class won the contest by getting
eighty-nine correct. Later refreshments were served in the
dining-room, which was tastefully decorated.

It is the aim of the Y . M. C. A . of the C. V. S. N. S. to
develop men morally along with their mental development. We,
as leaders of the Association, feel a great responsibility resting
upon us and feel anxious that every young man in the Senior
class, if he is not already a Christian, may be so influenced by
the work done that at the end of the school year he may go out
and be a blessing to the community in which he may be called to
labor. I f every young man is a Christian when he leaves the in
stitution, then we feel that the Association has done its work.
This is the end which we are striving to attain. The Association
has already done a large part of this work. We have some strong
Christian workers‘in each of the classes who are a credit to the
school and themselves.
The Bible Study department is a part of the work to which
a great deal of attention is given. Last year we had two classes
in “ The Life and Works of Jesus According to St. M ark,”
taught by Profs. McCrone and Heiges. Nearly all the students
were interested in the work, had a regular system of study, and
were prompt in their attendance. This year we expect to take
up Johnson’s Studies for Personal Workers. We are looking
forward to several classes in this work.
Prayer meetings are being held on Thursday evening of each
week in one of the rooms on third floor. The young men mani
fest great interest and the attendance is good.
The Association for the first time in its history sent two dele
gates, Mr. Uhler and Mr. Arnold, to the Northfield Student’s
Conference held at East Northfield, Massachusetts, June 26 to
July 5, 1903. The delegates reported a delightful trip and a
very profitable stay at Northfield. We find that the training they
have received is very helpful in the performance of their respective
duties in the Association.

The object of the Association is to develop Christian character
in its members, and to advance active Christian work among the
young women of the institution. The five officers, together with
the chairman of each standing committee, constitutes the Cabi
net. Regular Cabinet meetings are held at which the president
presides. A t these meetings all business and whatever pertains
to the welfare of the Association is discussed. Regular meetings
are held each Sabbath evening at 6 o ’clock. A half-hour Bible
Study Class is conducted by the president every Sunday after
noon. A t present the class is studying the Old Testament char
acters. Every girl in the dormitory is either an active or an
associate member.
flDacriage of prof. Drum to /BMss Burns
Prof. M. L. Drum, ’96, was married to Miss Mary Burns, at
6:30, on the evening of August 20, 1903, at Geneseo, N. Y ., by
Rev. Dr. J. E. Kittridge, of the Presbyterian church. The cere
mony took place at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs.
T . E. Burns. There were fifty guests present— a number of them
from Pennsylvania. After the wedding Prof, and Mrs. Drum took
the train for Philadelphia where several days were sp?nt, and the
week following among the mountains, near Duncannon, Perry
County, Pa. , They now live at their home in Lewis burg, Pa.
Prof. Drum had charge of the department of Mathematics at
C. V . S. N. S. previous to his entrance in Bucknell University |
September, 1901. He is an instructor in Mathematics at the Uni
versity, and was re-elected last summer with an increase in
salary. Prof. Drum was honored after his graduation from Nor
mal by being elected as a member of the Faculty the next year.
His work at C. V . S. N. S. was of the highest type, and we be
speak for him a very successful career at Bucknell.
Miss Burns was assistant in the Model School at Normal for
four years. As a teacher and lady she was held in high esteem.
The best wishes of the Herald unite with those of the Faculty in
wishing her a happy future.

“ cA P to a d Man Sharpened, to a ’P oint.”
O
This is the definition of an educated
man as given by a well-known American
educator.
It gives expression to a prom
inent Ursinus ideal.
Your college course
should be liberalizing, and at the same time
it should fit you in a special way for some
particular line of life-work.
You want to be a cultivated
man or woman, but you want to be something more
a
teacher, a physician, a minister, a lawyer, an editor, or a
scientist.
If you are interested in this theme, procure a
catalogue of Ursinus College and study the Group System
of Courses.
This system has been in vogue at Ursinus for
more than ten years.

The Shippensburg State Normal School is to-day
recognized as one of the leading Normal Schools in
the country.
This recognition is due in the first place
to the fact that its graduates are as a rule skillful and
successful teachers.
It is due in the second place to
the fact that the energy of the school has been
chiefly directed toward the education of teachers for
the public schools.
It is due in the third place to
the fact that the school keeps abreast of the times.
The legislature at its last session made an appro
priation for the continuance of free tuition in the
Normal Schools of the state.
This makes the ex
penses of a Normal School course very low to those
who are preparing to teach.
There is no longer any
excuse for the young teachers of Pennsylvania being
unprepared.
The Shippensburg Normal School is
taking excellent care of the training and education of
all who are now within her walls and can take the
same kind of care of many more if they come.
The Winter Term opens January 4th, 1904, and the
Spring Term April 11, 1904.

No. 1.
Ube Urue TEeacber
Every child is a young savage. Let a tribe of red men kidnap
the child of the most cultured and refined parents and bear him
away to the forests to grow up in a tepee, and he will smear his
body with paint, don a blanket, raise the warhoop and brandish
the scalping knife with all the relish of the wildest and most
cruel Indian.
A short time ago there passed through this state a red man
with the dress and bearing of a refined gentleman, and he was
able with his eloquence to stir the minds and hearts of a large and
intelligent audience. This gentleman was at one time a child of
the forest, a papoose, an Indian boy going in and out of a wig
wam, his narrow and rude home, with no thought of any other
destiny than that of his dusky ancestors. But an angel hand led
him out of the forest, washed his body of the foul ointment, re
placed the blanket with a clean suit of clothes, trimmed his hair,
put hope and courage in his heart, made him able to stand before
men, and move them with his wit and philosophy.
W hy is it that one child remains a savage and the other, with
a far inferior prospect in the beginning, develops into a refined
and noble man worthy to sit down with the great, the learned,
and the wise ?
Education makes all the difference there is in the world be
tween the highest and the lowest. This education is in great
part entrusted to the teachers of the public schools, and to the
labor of these teachers is due our high standing among the civi
lized nations of the world. If the character of the instruction im
proves from year to year, the standard of national enlightenment
will rise accordingly. Our great concern then should be centered
in the preparation of the teacher.
The representative teacher of today may eclipse the teacher of
a generation ago, but he must not rest content with present at-
2
T H £ NO R M A L SCHOOL HEJRALD
tainments. As long as he remains in the field he must continue
to delve and dig and to enrich mind and heart with the special
treasures of his possession. No one can give more than he pos
sesses. No one can teach more than he knows. If, then, a young
man or woman, who comes fresh from the door of the public
school, knowing only what he learned there, undertakes to teach
that same school the following year, retrogression must almost
inevitably be the result. Every teacher whether he has attended
a higher school of learning or not must study and plan and
earnestly desire to make himself effective or else he will stand still
or fall behind the standard of his times. There is enough in the
business of school teaching to enlist the whole heart.
A distinguished college professor testified that he never went
to his work without first invoking God’s spirit to rest upon him
and help him in his efforts to impress the truth upon the minds
and hearts of the young men of the school. He became, of
course, a successful teacher, and after a while was called to the
chancellorship of one of our greatest universities.
Some years ago in a class of young men preparing for college
was one who studied under great difficulties. He was not what
we would call a correct scholar. He blundered a good deal in
recitations. A t home seven other children— brothers and sisters_
helped to make confusion during study hours. But finally he was
able to enter college and in due time was graduated. It was now
necessary for him to do something towards earning a support.
The only thing that offered at first was a low grade school in his
native town. But he taught that school with heart preparation.
He taught that school as if his pupils were born of noble blood.
He taught that school as if his welfare and its progress demanded
all his powers. When a Principal was wanted the next year for
the high school of a city of thirty thousand inhabitants, he was
chosen, although there were many applicants, experienced and
capable teachers— some of them graduates of the highest colleges
in the country. The school board had heard of his disinterested
ness, of his controlling desire to do his whole duty even in an
inferior position. A few years later he became a superintendent,
and now fills one of the most important positions in the Middle
States.
Teachers of this kind are always in demand. The world may
be accused of harshness, of lack of soul, of want of appreciation
T H E N O R M A L SCHOOL H ER ALD

of merit, but whenever it can get a good, enthusiastic, honest, in
dustrious, well trained workman, and profit by his services, it is
sure to hold on to him.
W e may easily estimate the difference in influence exerted
upon a community by two teachers— one an inexperienced, indo
lent, self satisfied, narrow minded, prejudiced youth who managed
to secure a certificate and afterwards gave himself no trouble
about further qualifying himself; the other an experienced
teacher, industrious, energetic, truth loving, studious," broad
minded, liberal, desiring knowledge for its own sake as well as
for the sake of effective and telling work in the school room.
The teacher in Goldsmith’s “ Deserted Village” illustrates the
point we would make.
“ Yet he was kind, or, if severe in aught
The love he bore to learning was in fault,
The village all declared how much he knew,
’Twas certain he could write and cipher too;
Lands he could measure, terms and tides presage,
And e’ en the story ran—that he could gauge; .
In arguing, too, the parson owned his skill,
For e’en though vanquished, he could argue-still;
While words of learned length and thundering sound, •
Amazed the gazing rustics ranged around;
And still they gazed, and sti-ll the wonder grewThat one small head could carry all he knew.”
Cowper, on the other hand, characterizes the careless, narrow
minded teacher in the following lines:
“ And seems it nothing in a father’s eye
That unimproved those many moments fly
And is he well content his son should find
No nourishment to feed his growing mind,
But conjugated verbs, and nouns declined ?
For such is all the mental food purveyed
By public hackneys in the schooling trade;
Who feed a pupil’s intellect with store
Of syntax truly, but with little more,
Dismiss their cares when they dismiss their flock,
Machines themselves and governed by a clock.”
It remains, then, for the teacher to advance steadily along the
line of his work, and not wait for the coming generation to make
the next step. It is his to push forward the work as far as possi
ble before yielding his commission to his successors. Finally it
remains for the teacher to work this miracle: to take a savage, as
it were, and so to polish his mind, soul and body that he shall
become worthy to stand before kings, and that his deeds shall be
good and great and be remembered forever.

2)c. Barton’s ©tfer for a School Song
A desire has been frequently expressed by members of the
Alumni and friends of the Cumberland Valley State Normal
School for a School Song. This was especially true at our last
Commencement which was so largely attended by members of the
Alumni who are anxious to continue and increase the prosperity
of their Alma Mater. There is much in song to arouse enthusi
asm and increase the love of the student body for the institution
with which they are at present or have been connected. To en
courage the writing of such a production, I will give to any stu
dent in the school, to any member of the Alumni, or to any one
who has at some time been a student at this institution the sum
of five dollars for the best popular school song that can be readily
set to music of some popular air. The prize will be awarded by
three competent judges.

In my old arm-chair at eventide my fancy loves to soar
To where a rustic arbor stands with wild vines climbing' o’er
And growing stately on each side two bushes filled with roses,
Both red and white,—I see them now—and there a maiden poses.
Her lips are like a rosebud red, her hair a ruddy brown,
That seems like misty shadows with the sunlight creeping down.
No wonder that in days gone by there was a war of roses—
In my heart one wages now, for ’ tis my sweetheart poses.
East night I asked her to be mine—we stood beneath the bower.
She would not answer-then— but tomorrow—with a flower.
I f red roses she should pluck, then her answer would be nay.
Like her to be romantic:—but if white, then it was aye.
What joy and rapture filled me as I gazed, with fond delight
A t my sweetheart standing in the bower plucking roses—white.
Now, in the garden spot of life ’tis at my side she poses.
Ah, think how much depended on the shade of roses !

j£bitorial
The editors wish to make the f‘personals” of graduates one
of the most attractive features of the Herald. This is one of the
chief aims of the paper. The graduates of any school should be
held together and to their Alma Mater by some bond for mutual
interest— on the part of the Alumni to keep up old friendships
and to secure patronage for the school; and' on the part of the
school to secure better positions for its graduates. These ends
can be accomplished in the main if the Alumni will promptly re
spond when addressed for information, and help to support the
Herald by their subscriptions. The Cumberland Valley State
/Normal School is among the very best equipped institutions of its
class in the State. Its faculty, ladies’ dormitory, gentlemen’s
dormitory, gymnasium, chapel, and culinary department are the
best that can be had. Therefore, there is no reason why Ship
pensburg Normal should not stand at the front in patronage and
reputation for thorough work. We appeal to the Alumni to in
vestigate these assertions and then rally around the standard of
Old Normal. Let us be up and doing. Let your little help.
Make the reputation of the school by noble deeds and kind
words. Let us put forth a supreme effort during the year to
make the Spring Term of 1904 the largest one in the history of the
school.

sch ool h e r a l d
The Fall Term of this year has opened with a greatly in
creased attendance over the Fall Term of last year. The classes
are well organized and the additional stability which the new
course naturally gives to the Normal School system is already
very manifest in the Shippensburg Normal School. The class
spirit is improved and the increased culture effect of the new
course is very pronounced. We predict that the first decade of
the three years’ course will show a more marvelous growth in the
Normal Schools of the State than has been shown by any previous
decade in their history.
■
Fvery educational institution in order to justify its existence
must stand for something that will improve the welfare of the
people and the State. The Shippensburg Normal School, in
order to meet this demand which is made upon educational in
stitutions m general, lays great stress upon the practice-teaching
done in the Model School. This fact is becoming very generally
known and our graduates need little other recommendation in
order to secure positions than the fact that they hold the diploma
of the Shippensburg State Normal School. The members of the
graduating class teach throughout their entire Senior year in
classes of their own and under the constant guidance and super- .
vision of expert teachers. The methods in the several branches
are given by the critic teachers in the Model School, insuring
harmony of method and practice.
Sound discipline in a school is the foundation of character
building, and character is the chief aim of-all true education
When Dr. Arnold, of Rugby, said : “ It is not necessary that Rugby
be a school of three hundred students but it is necessary that it
be a school of Christian gentlemen,” he announced the policv of
every deserving school in the world. The Shippensburg Normal
School is aiming to be in harmony with this high ideal of school
discipline. Parents who send their children to this institution
feel that wholesome restraints and wise regulations are made the
safeguards of the student’s life. It is easy for the student at the
Shippensburg Normal School to do right and hard for him to do
wrong. The atmosphere of the school is morally pure and
healthful.

The Shippetisburg Normal School in its policy recognizes the
fact that the spirit of a teacher is the surest indication of his suc
cess or failure. The spirit which characterized the life of
Pestalozzi, of Arnold, of Page and of Mann is the spirit which the
school endeavors to inculcate. The institution which does not
touch the spirit of a student and give to it life is not fulfilling its
highest and best mission. The success of a teacher depends more
upon his spirit than his scholarship. To send out from our State
Normal Schools young men and women fired with the spirit of
conscientious service, earnestness in work, and love for children,
is to perform the highest service for the State of which these
schools are capable.
Baldwin says that ‘ ‘The art of teaching is to teach pupils to
think.” Another authority says that ‘ ‘In education we play
upon two instruments, memory and thought. The good schools
play upon thought and the poor ones upon memory.” Many of
the students who come to Normal School have been edu
cated previously in schools where the teachers played upon
memory. It is difficult and well nigh impossible to repair the
damage done by such schools. In the Shippensburg Normal
School the teachers play chiefly upon the thought powers of the
students and not upon their memories. Paul said: ‘ ‘I had rather
speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I
might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown
tongue. ’ ’ This thought of the great apostle would revolutionize
many schools if put in practice in them.
There is no better way to promote the interests of the Ship
pensburg State Normal School than by assisting in filling her
halls with live energetic students. No school has ever yet failed
with its rooms filled with students. A school may become too
large to do the most effective individual work but never so large
as to diminish its popularity, and the success of every institution
depends chiefly upon its popularity. Send to the Principal the
names and addresses of any persons of your acquaintance who are
thinking of taking a Normal Course. Give him also such in
formation concerning them as will enable him to correspond in
telligently and effectively with them.

T H E N O RM AL SCHOOL H ER AL D
A Normal School graduate should be known by his breadth of
literary culture. The teachers of the youth of the land should
know what good literature is and have a genuine love for it.
They are to develop the literary tastes of the children placed
under their tuition and they cannot do this successfully unless
they have correct tastes in this line themselves. To be able to
awaken a true love for the thoughts of the best writers is a power
which every teacher should covet. The pupil who has been
properly introduced into the world of books is more fortunate
than he who has been simply introduced vinto the society of the
400. To know how and what to read and to love reading is an
education in itself. To find pleasure in the reading of poetry is a
source of enjoyment which any one would be fortunate in finding.
For an institution to grow stronger year by year in this line of
work is one of the best evidences of its healthy development.
Every educated man should have at the foundation of his educa
tion abroad basis of literary culture which should be easily recog
nized in the company of educated people. The Shippensburg
Normal School has a large library of well, selected books, in the
department of English the Course in Literature is strongly empha
sized, and the other departments contribute largely to the literary
treasures of the student.
We have learned recently that one of our leading institute in
structors from one of our leading Normal Schools has made the
statement that the flowers were given their brilliant colors for the
purpose of attracting insects to them and thus causing the insect
to find the honey as it were by accident. We have no disposition
to attack the scientific accuracy of this statement but are willing
to assume it to be correct. The statement, however, carries with
it the implication that the beauty of the flower is of secondary
value, and this implication we resent. We believe God clothed
the land with beauty primarily for man’s enjoyment. The fra
grance of the flower might have been made sufficient, if it is not,
to attract the insect, but does any one suppose that God in that
event would have made the flowers any less attractive to the eye
of man? There is danger in this idea of giving to beauty a com
mercial value and placing this value above the value of its reflex
influence upon the human soul. It may be true that the brilliant
colors of the flowers attract insects to them but that is an in-
T H E N O R M A L SCHOOL H ER AL D
9
significant use of their brilliancy. “ The flower must be in the
heart before it can appear in the eye,” and it is its beauty that
touches the human heart and fixes the attention of the mind upon
it. God’s firstandlast thoughts are of man, his noblest creation,
and the brilliancy of Nature’s coloring was divinely intended for
the beautifying of the human soul. The beauty of the flower is
its chief value to the human mind and should be the first and last
lesson abstracted from it for the nurture of the mind of the child.
The following lines from Longfellow suggest the chief use of
nature for the ch ild :
“ And Nature, the old nurse,
Took the child upon her knee,
. Saying, ‘Here is a story book
Thy Father hath written for thee.’ ”
IFlew Ueacbers
Every new school year brings with it one or more new teachers.
This year the new teachers are Miss Mabel Harlow, who takes
the place in Reading and Elocution held last year by Miss Frances
A . Heath; and Miss Mary Wells, who fills the position in the
Model School which has been filled for the last four years by
Miss Mary Burns.
Miss Harlow’s home is in Fall River, Massachusetts. She is
a graduate of the Emerson School of Expression and for a time
was a classmate of Mrs. Charles M. Smith, formerly Miss Cora S.
Fitch, well known to the Normal students of a few years ago.
As preceptress and teacher Miss Harlow has already made a very
favorable impression among the students. Her experience in the
Vermont Academy, at Saxton River, Vermont, a co-educational
institution, has been a valuable preparation for her in the line of
work assigned to her in the Normal School.
Miss Harlow’s
testimonials from her former fields of labor are of the highest type
and character. As a student at Emerson she was regarded as one
of the brightest members of her class.
Miss Mary Wells comes to Shippensburg from Baldwinsville,
N. Y ., which is her home. She is a graduate of the Geneseo
State Normal School, and her standing in her classes was among
the very highest. She has taught continuously since graduating,
10
T H E N O RM AL SCHOOL H E R A L D
and in her different fields of labor she has had the kind of experi
ence which will fit her for a successful career in the Normal
School. Her testimonials from places where she has taught show
her to be a teacher of much more than ordinary skill and ability.
She has begun her work in an encouraging manner and will no
doubt prove to be a very successful teacher and a worthy suc
cessor to Miss Burns.
While a change of teachers is always regarded with some
anxiety and apprehension, yet when the vacant positions are sup
plied with teachers who give such sure promise of success as
Miss Harlow and Miss Wells give, the regret caused by the
change is no longer discomforting.

Normal will not have a football team this season. The failure
of parents to give consent to the available players on the team,
and the lack of interest among the student body constitute the
reasons for the non-appearance of a team.
During the summer at Knoxlyn, Adams County, a very agree
able camping party, consisting mostly of our graduates, was
chaperoned by Miss Horton.
S. S. Jacks, ’97., died July 10, 1903, near Clifton, Dauphin
County, Pa. He had been ill for about two weeks with typhoid
fever.
A first class basket-ball team may be expected at Normal this
winter. A ll the men of the old team have returned, and are
ready to make the team this year the best possible. Inter-class
games will be played this fall, and immediately after the holidays
the team will play with visiting teams.
On Saturday evening, September 19, the Y . M. C. A . and
the Y . W . C. A . tendered a reception to the students. During
the fore part of the evening an interesting contest took place.
The picture of some prominent man or woman was pinned upon
each student, and every one was supplied with a blank upon
which were numbers corresponding with those on the pictures.
The names of the persons were to be written at the proper num-

bers. The recalling of the world’s famous faces was an excellent
memory drill. Out of a possible hundred and twenty-five Miss
Garcia Bechtel of the Middle class won the contest by getting
eighty-nine correct. Later refreshments were served in the
dining-room, which was tastefully decorated.

It is the aim of the Y . M. C. A . of the C. V. S. N. S. to
develop men morally along with their mental development. We,
as leaders of the Association, feel a great responsibility resting
upon us and feel anxious that every young man in the Senior
class, if he is not already a Christian, may be so influenced by
the work done that at the end of the school year he may go out
and be a blessing to the community in which he may be called to
labor. I f every young man is a Christian when he leaves the in
stitution, then we feel that the Association has done its work.
This is the end which we are striving to attain. The Association
has already done a large part of this work. We have some strong
Christian workers‘in each of the classes who are a credit to the
school and themselves.
The Bible Study department is a part of the work to which
a great deal of attention is given. Last year we had two classes
in “ The Life and Works of Jesus According to St. M ark,”
taught by Profs. McCrone and Heiges. Nearly all the students
were interested in the work, had a regular system of study, and
were prompt in their attendance. This year we expect to take
up Johnson’s Studies for Personal Workers. We are looking
forward to several classes in this work.
Prayer meetings are being held on Thursday evening of each
week in one of the rooms on third floor. The young men mani
fest great interest and the attendance is good.
The Association for the first time in its history sent two dele
gates, Mr. Uhler and Mr. Arnold, to the Northfield Student’s
Conference held at East Northfield, Massachusetts, June 26 to
July 5, 1903. The delegates reported a delightful trip and a
very profitable stay at Northfield. We find that the training they
have received is very helpful in the performance of their respective
duties in the Association.

The object of the Association is to develop Christian character
in its members, and to advance active Christian work among the
young women of the institution. The five officers, together with
the chairman of each standing committee, constitutes the Cabi
net. Regular Cabinet meetings are held at which the president
presides. A t these meetings all business and whatever pertains
to the welfare of the Association is discussed. Regular meetings
are held each Sabbath evening at 6 o ’clock. A half-hour Bible
Study Class is conducted by the president every Sunday after
noon. A t present the class is studying the Old Testament char
acters. Every girl in the dormitory is either an active or an
associate member.
flDacriage of prof. Drum to /BMss Burns
Prof. M. L. Drum, ’96, was married to Miss Mary Burns, at
6:30, on the evening of August 20, 1903, at Geneseo, N. Y ., by
Rev. Dr. J. E. Kittridge, of the Presbyterian church. The cere
mony took place at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs.
T . E. Burns. There were fifty guests present— a number of them
from Pennsylvania. After the wedding Prof, and Mrs. Drum took
the train for Philadelphia where several days were sp?nt, and the
week following among the mountains, near Duncannon, Perry
County, Pa. , They now live at their home in Lewis burg, Pa.
Prof. Drum had charge of the department of Mathematics at
C. V . S. N. S. previous to his entrance in Bucknell University |
September, 1901. He is an instructor in Mathematics at the Uni
versity, and was re-elected last summer with an increase in
salary. Prof. Drum was honored after his graduation from Nor
mal by being elected as a member of the Faculty the next year.
His work at C. V . S. N. S. was of the highest type, and we be
speak for him a very successful career at Bucknell.
Miss Burns was assistant in the Model School at Normal for
four years. As a teacher and lady she was held in high esteem.
The best wishes of the Herald unite with those of the Faculty in
wishing her a happy future.
