PRINCIPAL’S LETTER TO THE ALUMNI
Dear Friends:
Monday, September 8, was a red letter day at Normal. We had
|been looking forward to the opening day of the term with the pleasantest
of anticipations, for we had been busy registering students during the
preceding months. W e had been able to announce on Commencement
Day that our advanced enrollment was much higher than usual. Though
we did no advertising this summer, new students continued to register
in increasing numbers during July and we couldn’t help wondering whether
students were not registering earlier than usual and whether August
might not show a dearth of registrations. We were specially gratified
to find that the August registration was heavier than that of July. It
continued into the first week of September up to the very day of the new
term. We knew then that we would open with the largest fall term
registration in our history but we were anxious to see the new students
for they represented parts of the state from which we had never received
students.
So we were anxious for September 8 to come. It came and with it
Came the students in a steady stream from 8 o ’clock in the morning until
near midnight. They came by auto from remote parts of the state and
.every train brought a big delegation. On Tuesday morning the day
students registered and by evening we knew that we had not only broken
p i records for attendance, but we had one hundred students in excess
of last year’s enrollment. Though we had opened every room in the
||rls dormitory that could possibly be used to house students, the dor­
mitory was filled. The third floor, now known as the second, of the main

2

T H E N O RM A L SCHOOL H ERALD

building was full and one corridor of the top floor was crowded. We
were gratified, too, to note that the boys were back in increasing numbers.
M any who had been with us before and who had served overseas in the
army came back to complete their work. Our numbers were recruited
by new boys who crowded the third and fourth floors o f the boys’ dor­
mitory.
Our increased attendance was especially gratifying to us because
we had lost a senior class numbering thirty more than the class of 1920
will number. Last year’s sophomore class was smaller than usual. So
we realized that we had to gain from forty to fifty students before we
could equal last fall’s attendance. It was naturally gratifying to all
of us to note that we not only filled all the vacancies but added one hun­
dred more to the student roll.
Naturally the junior class received the largest additions. In spite
of the fact that the left-over students in that class were not so numerous
as usual, next year’s senior class will probably be the largest in the his­
tory of the school. W e have a large freshman class, too, the largest in
our history.
I desire to commend especially the work of the girls’ student council
at the opening of the term. The members of the council were on hand
and conducted the new girls to their rooms, welcomed them here and
looked after their comfort. The service thus rendered deserves the
highest commendation. Of a similar nature was the service rendered
b y the Y . W . C. A. The members of the cabinet had secured the names
and addresses of the new boarding girls and had written every girl a
letter welcoming her to school. The new girls were supplied with tags
for their baggage, thus enabling the older students to identify them on
the trains and to make their acquaintance before they arrived at Normal.
During the summer carpenters, masons and painters have been
busy making repairs and getting the buildings in readiness for use in
September. Unfortunately because of the scarcity of labor we were
not able to do all that we had hoped to do, but the training school had
been repainted and renovated and presented a fine appearance at the
opening of the term. A big coal bin, a very useful if not particularly
ornamental structure, had been added to the power house. W e expect
to be able to store fifteen carloads of coal so as to be ready for any possible
tie-up or blockade during the cold months. Other improvements had
vbeen made and will be made about the buildings. The campus never
looked prettier than it did on opening day. The frequent rains of the
summer had given the grass a rich, velvety appearance. The shrubbery
planted under Prof. Shearer’s-direction added very much to the beauty
of the campus.
The new teachers were on hand and work began promptly on Tuesday
afternoon. W e anticipate the most successful school year in our history-

We have a splendid body of teachers and one of the finest student bodies
we have ever had. W e are already planning for our spring term. We
realize that we shall not be able to accommodate all the boarding stu­
dents who wall apply for rooms in the school. We are making arrange­
ments looking to securing rooms in private houses for the overflow. Be­
cause of this condition we urge all of you to speak to new students who
expect to be with us in the spring term and have them register as early
as possible. We already have a large list of registrations for the spring
term.
In conclusion I want to express my sincere thanks to you, m y fellow
alumni, for the manner in which you have worked for the school. I
have made it a point to find out from every new student who registers
with us just why he or she happened to come to us. More than threefourths of the students thus interrogated have told me that an alumnus
or former student of the school had urged them to come to Shippensburg.
I wish I could thank all of you personally for the work that is thus re­
vealed, but I want you to regard this as an expression of my sincere
thanks for all that you have done. The present high standing of the
school, not only in attendance, but in character of the work done, has
been made possible through your loyalty. I bespeak your continued
cooperation for the big things that must yet be done. W e were gratified
to be able to help so many of you secure good positions. Our only regret
was that more of you were not available for these places, as in many
cases we were forced to say that no alumnus was available when directors
or superintendents asked us to help them secure a principal or teacher.
As elsewhere noted we are anxious to have the county, borough and
city local alumni associations reorganized. W e bespeak your active
cooperation in making these bodies still more effective. W e are entering
upon a new era in every line of endeavor and nowhere is the promised
land more inviting than in the field of education. Let us unitedly move
forward to the big things that are ahead.
Fraternally yours,
E zra L ehman, ’89

REORGANIZATION OF COUNTY, BOROUGH AND
CITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATIONS
Last year, because of the war and the number of our graduates who
were engaged in work that demanded all their time and energy, it was
deemed inadvisable to do more than continue the former local alumni
organizations. Now we are ready for a big forward movement along
these lines. W e are especially anxious to have the various county, bor­
ough and city organizations called together and reorganized for effective
Work. In a number of cases the former officers have left the county or

4

T H E N O RM A L SCHOOL H E RA LD

have turned their attention to other lines of work than teaching. In such
cases it will be necessary for the vice-president or secretary to issue a
call for a meeting some time during the next two or three months.
As we do not have the names of the vice-presidents of these associa­
tions we shall communicate with the secretary in case the president is
no longer in active service. We shall ask her to call a meeting of all
the graduates and former students some time during the week of the
county institute or at such other time as may be most convenient. We
trust that all will respond to the call for reorganization and that we may
have live, enthusiastic meetings. Wherever possible we believe it is
advisable to have an inexpensive luncheon. It is not the purpose of the
associations to get together and eat a big meal, but it is a good plan to
have all assemble at some restaurant where it is possible to have a good
time socially at comparatively little expense. In some cases it may not
be possible or advisable to have the luncheon feature as a part of the
reunion. W e are anxious to have all our graduates and former students
come to know each other intimately. Some of you are no longer engaged
in teaching, but we want you to come to these meetings and help along.
W e ask you to take this as a personal invitation to you to help reorganize
your local, county, borough or city alumni association. Wherever pos­
sible a member of the faculty will come to the meeting as a representative
of the school bearing its greetings. There are a lot of important matters
to be taken up b y these associations. Questions of salary, reorganization
of the course of study and many other matters of interest should properly
be considered at such meetings. W e believe that in no other way can
the work of the Alumni Association be made so successful as through
the activities of local organizations.
T h e HumAT.T) is anxious to receive and publish a record of these
meetings. W e want to know what was done and who the officers for
the ensuing year are. W e are specially anxious to have reports from the
following organizations: Adams, Bedford, Cambria, Cumberland, Dau­
phin, Franklin, Fulton, Huntingdon, Juniata, Montgomery, Perry, Pitts­
burgh and York associations.

NEW TEACHERS AT NORMAL
The July H e e a l d indicated that Mrs. Annette T. Herr had received
leave of absence for one year to complete her work at Columbia Uni­
versity and that Misses Conover and Jenkins and Prof. Culver would
not be with us this year. The selection of Miss Frieda Bausch, of Narberth, Pa., was also announced. Since then the following teachers have
been selected for the vacancies:
Miss Em m a. Havens, of Elmira, N. Y ., a graduate of the Battle
Creek, Mich., School of Physical Education, has been elected to take

TH E N O RM A L SCHOOL H E RA LD

charge of the department of physical education? Miss Havens has
already made a, most favorable impression upon the faculty and student
body. She is splendidly equipped for her work and is an enthusiastic
believer in field hockey, basketball, girls’ baseball and tennis. The
girls’ hockey teams are being selected and the fall tournament promises
to be unusually interesting. So large is the number of girls who are striv­
ing for membership on the junior hockey team that the final composition
of the team will be in doubt for some time to come. Miss Havens has.
given much attention to corrective gymnastics and is paying consider­
able attention to the matter of posture. W e predict excellent results
from her work.
Miss Bertha Reed, of Cortland, N. Y ., a graduate of Cornell Uni­
versity, has taken Mrs. Herr’s place as teacher of cookery and household
chemistry. Miss Reed is well equipped for her work and has already
organized a cafeteria for the day students. She is in charge of the prepa­
ration of the menus used in the dining-room and is cooperating in fine
style with Mrs. Watkins in the dining department. As a result the
boarding has been much improved. W e predict for Miss Reed a very
successful year’s work.
Prof. R. W . Williams, of York, Pa., has been elected teacher of physics
and general chemistry and coach of boys’ athletics. M r. Williams is
a graduate of Lebanon Valley College where he took an active part
in all branches of athletics. He also had the benefit of athletic training
during his army service. He has already made a very favorable im­
pression upon the members of the football team who recognize that he
is well equipped as a coach. He is also doing good work in the classroom
as a teacher of chemistry and physics.
Shortly after Miss Virginia Harlow returned to us she was offered
the position of teacher of English at DePauw University, Greencastle,
Ind. This position appealed strongly to Miss Harlow as it would give
her the opportunity to take postgraduate work in college and university.
The school authorities were loath to release Miss Harlow, not only be­
cause of the difficulty of securing a satisfactory teacher of English, but
also because of the fine work that she had done in the department. How­
ever, they recognized that the opportunity was one long sought by Miss
Harlow and agreed to release her if it were possible to find a satisfactory
teacher in her place. Just at this time a friend of Miss Harlow’s, M iss
Gertrude Greene, of Auburn, N. Y ., who had expected to take post­
graduate work in English at Yale, agreed to accept the place. Miss
Greene is a graduate of Wellesley College and specialized in English.
She is a member of Phi Beta Kappa and has taught successfully in the
Linden Hall School. Miss Greene was elected to the position and Miss
Harlow released. The best wishes of the student body and faculty go
with Miss Harlow in her new position. Miss Greene has taken charge

6

TH E N O RM A L SCHOOL H ERALD

of the work and has already proved that she is an excellent teacher. In
addition to her regular work Miss Greene is teaching a class of advanced
composition (first year college English) and will act as editor of T he
H e r a l d . The readers of this journal will welcome her to her new posi­
tion and will wish her abundant success.

ADVANCED WORK AT NORMAL
In addition to the regular work of the normal school course the
school authorities offered a course in advanced (college) algebra and
advanced composition (first year college English). A large number of
students have elected these advanced courses. Those taking them will
receive full college credit for this work. The class in Horace continues
its work. These students will also receive full credit for fifth year Latin
in college. N ot only will college credits be given those who take these
courses but they will be qualified to teach in high schools as a result of
their advanced work. W e are glad to note that so many of our students
are taking advantage of these opportunities. It means harder work,
but it shows that many of our young people are not afraid to buckle
down to the steady, persistent effort that means success in after life.

NEW IDEALS FOR OLD IDEAS
[Dr. Lehman’s address to the Graduating Class was delivered June 25.
omitted from the July number because of lack of room.]

It was

Members of the Graduating Class:
Ladies and Gentlemen: It has been my privilege to address the
graduating classes of this school for the past six years. I have tried
upon those occasions to deliver a parting message to them as they went
forth to do battle for the cause of Light and Truth.
Last year I spoke in what may have seemed a sombre tone, for we
were at war, and many of our young men had gone or were about to go
across the seas to give, if need be, their lives in defense of the ideals that
they had been taught to regard as sacred.
Today you may naturally expect my address to sound a more joyous
note, for the war is ended and the boys have returned, or will soon return.
Many of them have been mingling with us at this Commencement and
others expect to return in the fall to take up the studies which they aban­
doned when the call to service came. The young men and women of
this graduating class may well rejoice that they can plan their work
for next year and for the years to come with the certainty that they will
be able to carry out their plans undisturbed b y war’s grim alarms.
Certainly, my young friends, these are causes for rejoicing, especially
when you are about to go forth into a world that needs the services of

TH E N O RM A L SCHOOL H ERALD

educated men and women as it has never needed them before. You will
find positions waiting for you at higher salaries and for longer terms
than have ever been at the command of a graduating class from this or
any other institution. In addition to these advantages you will find
that the teacher will be accorded a more prominent place in the com­
munities into which you go. Certainly the times were never more aus­
picious for a body of young men and women about to engage in teaching.
But, while I rejoice with you because of higher salaries, longer terms,
and greater recognition, I must also say to you that the world into which
you are going is a very different world from that of June'26, 1914— yes,
a very different world from that of one year ago. As I face you for the
last time as a class about to receive the highest honor we can bestow
upon you, I ask myself whether you have grown as the world has grown.
You have been shut in, cloistered in these halls and classrooms among
books, while others have done battle for newer ideals of life. You have
struggled to learn the wisdom of the past; have you been blind to the
hand of God as it “ has writ large on the page of life” ? While you rejoice
at the prospect of high salaries, have you realized that you are called
upon to bear the greatest responsibilities ever placed upon young men
and women?
Ladies and Gentlemen, I call upon you to take up your share of the
burdens as citizens of this Commonwealth that you must bear with these
young people. “ But,” you ask, “ in what way have the ideals of the
world changed so radically as to call forth so solemn a setting forth?
To what degree have the ideas of the past become antiquated?”
Let us in answer note a few of those ideas that dominated our state
and nation a few years ago.
Six years ago, education was regarded as desirable, even necessary,
but the type of education given was left entirely to the state, and by it
largely to the district. The district was supposed to enforce a compul­
sory school law— usually on a 70 per cent, basis which in practice meant
less than 100 days attendance at school each year. Aside from a few
required branches of study, the board of directors decided what branches
should be taught; it decided what type o f teacher should be employed
and what salary should be paid. The only stipulation was that a salary
of 145.00 a month, less than one-half the sum paid to an illiterate digger
of sewer ditches, must be paid. In short, education was supposed to be
a local matter. But, in the turmoil of war, the nation had to pause to
do the work that had not been done by the district, to educate in the
rudiments of reading and writing ten out of every hundred young men
summoned to the colors. The nation discovered, too, that the district
had concerned itself little about the physical well-being of the youth of
the land, that nearly one-half were physically disqualified for the work
they were called upon to do.

8

TH E N O RM A L SCHOOL H ERALD

What wonder that those at the head of the nation asked in all serious­
ness: - ‘ ‘ W hy should the accident of place of birth determine the type
of education that a boy or girl will receive?” Since the boy from the
bayous of Louisiana or the mountains of Kentucky will be called upon
to bear the same burden of citizenship as the boy of the Back Bay dis­
trict of Boston, why not give each an equal opportunity? W hy should
the fact that one is born in a sparsely settled, poverty-stricken district,
cause him to remain an illiterate— a menace to the nation? Thus came
a new ideal. “ Education is a national affair, the nation must see to it
that every boy and girl under the protection of the flag is given the same
or equal educational opportunity enjoyed by every other boy or girl.”
The new ideal will also include a course in physical training and sanita­
tion that will make impossible imperfect, dwarfed types of manhood.
W e have changed the old ideas of education as something purely
local for the new ideal that education is a subject for national control
and supervision. Members of the class of 1919, do you not realize that
it is no crossroads school with its local, often narrow interests, that you
are called upon to serve? Every schoolhouse has become the center of
national interest. Yours is. the greater responsibility of giving to every
boy and girl the training that is necessary to the noblest citizenship in
the republic.
A few years ago it was widely believed and maintained that the
public had no right to demand more than a conventional type of morality
of the teacher. If he was reasonably abstemious in the use of intoxi­
cants, if he did not violate the canons of sex morality, if he did not offer
offense to the religious convictions of the community— in short, if he
were negatively moral, the state must be satisfied.
N o matter what his teaching might be, what his views of popular
government might be, the public had no right to question his attitude,
Teachers themselves in our higher schools and colleges raised the banner
of “ academic freedom” and made it cover every form of license and in­
tellectual anarchy. The result of such procedure was manifest when,
in the midst of a war that imperiled the nation’s existence, teachers were
not wanting in high schools and colleges who sought to obstruct the
measures of the government— who encouraged seditious utterances on
the part of their pupils— who taught class hatred and encouraged popular
unrest.
When some of these were brought to trial and dismissed from the
service, there were not wanting men and women who raised an outcry
protesting that freedom of speech was being stifled because the national
officials had dared to say that a teacher has no right to incite to sedition
and sow the seeds of class hatred and discontent in the minds of the
children. Bolshevism and anarchy have no place on American soil,
and no teacher should be allowed to'abuse his opportunity by spreading

T H E N O RM A L SCHOOL H ERALD

9

abroad their pernicious influence. What right have men and women to
accept the wages of the state if they cannot support it against treason
and disloyalty?
The older idea of “ let alone” has been abandoned for the newer
ideal that the state has a right to demand the oath of allegiance of every
teacher in the public schools. Shall we require policemen and Constables
to support the government and allow teachers to sow the seeds of anarchy
and discontent?
Young men and young women of the graduating class, I say to you
that, unless you are prepared to swear fealty to the nation in whose
service you are about to enter, you have no right to aspire to teach its
children. There are evils which should be corrected. It will be your
opportunity and your duty to bring about reforms in various matters,
but you must always render loyal support to the state and nation. I
counsel you young women, who will within the next year be given all
the political privileges of men, that you study seriously the great social
and economic problems that you will be called upon to help solve with
your ballots.
Only a few years ago the public looked upon the teacher as an em­
ployee of the district— one who in return for a certain stipend rendered
a certain service— taught so many branches during five days of the week.
The work of the teacher was judged, therefore, by the records of the
schoolroom— so many pupils promoted, so many failures, discipline satis­
factory or unsatisfactory.
During the last few years a new note has come into the evaluation
of the teacher. The community has discovered that one teacher has
been active in the life of the community, in its social and religious work,
while another has kept aloof from everything except the work of the
schoolroom. One teacher has set a high social standard, maintaining
a poise— a dignitySw orthy of the best in manhood and womanhood;
another has made herself the subject of flippant remarks and caustic
criticism because of her associations. This young man has won the
respect of the community because he is thoroughly dependable, he sees
what is to be done and does it— nothing is neglected; that man is forget­
ful, always apologizing for failure to do the right thing, complaining
about the amount of work that he has to do, always tired and worn out
when a big thing is to be done.
Superintendents, principals and boards of directors are asking ques­
tions like these: “ What will she do for the community?” “ What type
of woman is she socially?” “ Can he be depended upon to do the right
thing?” “ Does he have initiative?” What is the significance of this
changed attitude— or, if you will, these new demands on the part of the
public? The explanation is not far to seek. A new ideal has supplanted
an old idea. The public is asking that the teacher be a leader in the
community.

10

TH E N O RM A L SCHOOL H ERALD

N o demand could be more insistent. The world needs honest,
intelligent, unselfish leadership as it has never needed it before. What
do our rural communities need more than anything else? A leader who
will point the way to better things. What do the boys and girls of our
school need? Intelligent, sympathetic guidance in meeting the problems
of life that are pressing upon them. Those who will guide them must be
men and women whom they respect for sincerity, poise and clearness of
vision. Young men and women of the graduating class, are you able
to meet these opportunities that are open to you?
N ot long ago boards of directors were asking, “ What must we pay
our teachers this year?” If the number of applicants was large, salaries
were placed as low as possible so that taxes might not be raised. Teach­
ing, in short, was a commodity to be paid for according to the laws of
supply and demand, just as wheat and corn. If quality was considered,
it was on the same basis as the quality of grain. The schools were filled
by men and women often poorly qualified, selected because they lived
in the community, because they wanted to earn money and the home
applicant was given the preference over the applicant from another dis­
trict. Salaries under such conditions remained low, and many a board
of directors from year to year paid the minimum salary required by
law— because the district was unwilling to tax itself to support better
schools. What mattered it that intelligent farmers on those very boards
of directors were buying the best machinery rather than the cheaper
grades because it paid to do it; changes and improvements were made in
houses and barns, a higher type of labor was secured because the cheap,
inefficient workman could not be allowed to use high grade machinery
or to take care of high grade cattle, but practically any one who could
secure the lowest type of certificate was employed to teach the children
of the school.
This was the situation, but a new spirit is animating the public.
It is at work in our own state. The commonwealth that yields to but
one other state in wealth and population must not continue to be ranked
with the other impoverished states ¿ f the south with their illiterate negro
populations. Districts are now asking, “ What can we pay the teachers
in order to secure the best men and women available? ” W e are beginning
to recognize the great truth that a strong, efficient teacher is cheap at
the highest wages, and that the weak, inefficient teacher is a wasteful
investment at any price.
So as a nation and a state we are ready to substitute new ideals for
old ideas that have hampered our progress for so long a time— to recog­
nize that education is national in its scope; that .every boy and girl is
entitled to the opportunities given by the nation to every other boy and
girl; that the character and loyalty of every teacher must be beyond
'question; that the teacher must be a community leader; that more money

T H E N O RM A L SCHOOL H E R A L D

11

must be put into educational work; and that the best teachers must be
employed.
Members of the graduating class, you are going forth into this new
world. Y ou will be hailed with jo y by all who are interested in the wel­
fare of the state. During the past year schools were handicapped by
the lack of strong men and women. The need for these was never more
imperative than it is now.
But the demands upon you will be greater than ever before. Can
you give the communities into which you are soon to go loyal, patriotic
service? Can you rise to the opportunities for service that are open to
you? Have you poise, self-control, character that will enable you to
meet the situation that is before you?
I trust that your experience here during the days that tried men’s
and women s souls may have fitted you in some measure for the new
world into which you are about to enter. A t such a time we may con­
jure you in the exalted phrase of Edmund Burke to “ lift up your hearts.”
Men and women whose names are linked with your Alma Mater for
service and loyalty adjure you to prove your mettle now. Will you
fail? I cannot believe that you will. I believe that you will measure
up to the intellectual standards of the times. If I hope, rather than
assert, that you will be equally efficient in meeting the demands for ser­
vice, it is because I realize how exacting these demands will be.
But I realize that many of you have been tried. Simple justice
requires that I should acknowledge the splendid work done by this class
in the student council in making possible the success of student govern­
ment among the girls of the school— a movement far-reaching in scope
and significance. I realize, too, that the young men of the Day Student
Association have met a trying situation in a manner that speaks well for
their success in meeting the big problems just ahead.
Every class leaves a distinct impression upon the school. Y ou leave
us, but your memory remains here, all that you have done that is good
and true will remain with us. The wood, the hay and the stubble will
burn, but the gold of character will remain. As the shadows lengthen
along the western hills and you enter upon the last lap of the race, may
it be yours to exclaim with the great Apostle, "“ I have fought a good
fight, I have finished m y course, I have kept the faith.”

REUNION OF THE CLASS OF 1909
Here’s to the class of ’09! long may it continue to boast of its achieve­
ments and may each succeeding anniversary add to its glory. How
miraculously it survived the vicissitudes of infancy! How patiently it
submitted to the trials of experimental dieting, partaking hungrily of

12

TH E N O RM A L SCHOOL H ERALD

every known brand of intellectual food. The class of ’ 19 may have had
more husky diet, but it had no more vociferous appetite or vigorous
digestion than ’09. Was it not meet that after ten long years the class
of ’09 should return to give expression to its affection for its fond parent,
our Alma Mater?
Ten years! Who can believe it! With tresses concealed by youth­
ful hats and matronly forms nicely screened by the festal board, we
looked not one day older. Our greatest regret was that our president
could not be with us, but someone put his shoulder to the wheel and
made things move very rapidly. The one thing needed to make our
reunion perfect was more time. Anyhow we had a grand and glorious
time and found our Alma Mater a delightful hostess.
T o Dr. Lehman and his most worthy faculty we wish to extend our
appreciation and thanks for their most splendid hospitality. Miss Eppley,
matron of the dining-room, we wish to thank most heartily for lending
to us her apartment in which domain the luncheon was held. Was there
ever a better luncheon? And the speeches! How our Deans praised
and commended us! Everybody had a thoroughly good time. Take
our advice, all students of later classes, and begin to prepare for your
tenth reunions now. Again we extend thanks to all those who in any
way contributed to our sojourn to the Alma Mater.

FOOTBALL PROSPECTS AT NORMAL FOR 1919
Once again the old C. V. S. N. S. athletic field is the scene of daily
football practice. With our new coach, Williams, of Lebanon Valley
College, as athletic director, C. V. S. N. S. entered upon its work on the
11th of September with an exceedingly bright future in prospect.
About thirty men answered the call for early practice, among them
being some of the varsity men of 1918— namely, Bolan, Shearer, Epley,
Gobrecht, Charlton, Witherow and Grove. W e are also glad to have
on our team Shoop, who is a varsity man. Coach Williams immediately
set to developing a team around this powerfu nucleus.
When the underclassmen came out the school had a very good second
team, further developed through the untiring efforts of our coach and
ex-Captain H. Bolan. We are sorry to say that our old ex-star, Charley
Taylor, will not be able to play this year on account of a weak knee,
but we are sure to hear him on the side lines. There is not the least
doubt as to the calibre of our team this season.
One week has been spent in scrimmage and the “ Pep” that entered
into the scrimmage displayed the fact that old C. V. S. N. S. is going to
have a fighting team to the man. On Saturday, the fourth of October,
it plays Harrisburg Tech. Watch them eat them up!

T H E N O RM A L SCHOOL H ERALD

13

Manager Krebs has arranged a schedule that will undoubtedly call
forth all that C. V. S. N. S. can produce. They are such teams as:
Harrisburg T ech ............................................ ........................Oct. 4
Dickinson Reserves................................................................Oct. 11
Mercersburg............................................................................ Oct. 18
Tarsus............... ........ ............. ................. . . . . . . . . . _______ Oct. 25
Bloomsburg............................................................................N ov. 1
Lebanon Valley Reserves..................................................... N ov. 8
Millersville.................................................................... ..........Nov. 15
The varsity line-up no doubt will be:
Witherow— Center
Epley— right guard
G. Charleton— right tackle
Gobrecht— left tackle
Eurich— left guard
Ralph Angle— left end
H. Thrush— right end
Grove— quarterback
Shope— left halfback
Bolan— right halfback
S. Shearer— fullback
We have bright prospects also for a very good basketball team.
The games are already being scheduled by Prof. Heiges and our opponents
are teams that will call forth our best efforts. But, with such ex-varsity
men as Grove, Angle, Craig, Charlton, Fickle and Bolan as a nucleus,
they are sure to develop a number-one quintet that will show their op­
ponents a lively time at least.
We are glad that the candidates have a good cooperative spirit.

largely attended, nearly all of the the twenty-two being present.
During the remaining days, corn roasts, beach parties, and other

IN MEMORIAM
George B. Cole
t0WD ° f ShippensburS lost one of its most prominent citizens and
me Normal School one of its most devoted friends in the death of George
B Cole, on September 7. M r. Cole had been ill for several weeks but
had been confined to his bed for just three weeks prior to his death.
He was born at Freemansburg, Northampton County, November 6,'
1835, but during his early boyhood he moved with his parents to Waynes­
boro, where he resided until 1851, when he came to Shippensburg.
Here he attended the Shippensburg Academ y and later began his career
as a business man in the town. For sixty years he took an active interest
in every thing that pertained to the welfare o f the town. He was active
m securing the Normal School for Shippensburg and was one of its most
earnest supporters. For almost twenty years he was a trustee and did
much to build up the school. All of his children attended the Normal and
two of them, Mrs. J. H. Stoner and Mrs. Watson C. Stoner, are graduates.

T H E N O RM A L SCHOOL H E RA LD

In the death of Mr. Cole the Normal School loses a most devoted
friend and supporter. The principal desires to dear testimony to the
interest that Mr. Cole took in everything that made for the advancement
of the school. As secretary of the house committee for a number of years
he gave much time and most valuable services to the finances of the
institution.

The alumni of the Normal Literary Society will be interested to know
that our society is still progressing.
Although the society lost many
active members by the graduation of the last year’s class, its ranks have
been swelled by fifty-four new members. Also several of our old members
who were serving their country last year have come back to us and are very
enthusiastic in taking up the society work again.

PHILO LITERARY SOCIETY
All the old Philos came back this fall with just as much “ pep” as ever.
W e miss the sixty-eight Seniors, who went out from our society last spring,
but we have already replaced fully that number with new students and
still have a very prosperous outlook for more. These new members
have already shown much ability along musical as well as other lines.
This is clearly shown by the number of new members in our Glee Club.
A goodly munber of our society have joined the Dramatic Club that
has just been organized under the very able supervision of Miss Stroh.
Philo has, in the past, shown much ability along this line, and from the
benefits derived from this organization, we are looking forward to much
better results. A playlet will be given once a month by this Club, giving
the members plenty of practice.
A t this time we take the opportunity to invite all the old members
of Philo back whenever it is possible for them to come.

NORMAL SOCIETY GLEE CLUB
Y ou should hear the Normal Glee Club sing! Every Friday evening
the Normal halls resound with melodious strains. Yes, we are improv­
ing. Some of our boys have returned from the Army and this adds
greatly to our Club.

Miss Adams selects songs written by wellknown composers and they
are usually suggestive of the time of the year or the day.
We met recently and organized our Club. The following officers were
elected: Marcus Markley, President; Wimbert Neely, Vice President;
Herman Spessard, Librarian; M ary Schue and Monroe Gobrecht, Proctors;
and Anna Kauffman, Secretary.

PHILO GLEE CLUB
The Philo Glee Club was organized the second week of fall term.
The following officers were elected for the year: President, Samuel Shearer;
Vice President, Harry Coleman; Secretary, Reida Longanecker;
Librarian, John Shearer.
We organized with an enrollment of twenty-five members, all of
whom are able singers and capable of rendering the music for which Philo
Glee Club has always been famous.
Miss Adams has appointed a director and an assistant, also a pianist»
from the Glee Club. The purpose of this is to train the members in
the line of Glee Club leading. The leader has sole charge of the Glee
Club. It is a new scheme and we are sure that it will work out well.

Y. M. C. A.
The year of 1919-20 for the Y . M . C. A. was opened by the installaation of the following officers: President, Guy Shumaker; Vice President,
Fred Lamberson; Corresponding Secretary, Clifford O. Fickle; Recording
Secretary, M. A. Markley; and Treasurer, Garth H. Kelley.
For the Y . M . C. A., as with all other features of the school work, the
prospects for the coming year look much brighter than they have for some
time. Many of the former members who had been called to the colors
have returned; and these, with a fine and willing bunch of new fellows,
promise to bring forth the best results possible.
A t the beginning of the year, our adviser, Professor Heiges, introduced
a more systematic and accurate means of transacting the business of
the Y . M . C. A.
This in itself has added much to the efficiency of the
Association. Our, Sunday evening programs have been changed and the
meetings so arranged as to give variety. The work of Professor Shearer
has also helped the boys in securing a better and more comfortable Y . M . C.
A. room.
The situation as a whole contrasts rather strikingly with the sit­
uation of this time last year, and with the help of Him in Whose m u ia the
work is carried on, we shall be able to fulfill our duty.

Y. W. C. A.
Our organization has a good outlook for this year. W ith a hundred
new girls, we hope to have each one a member of the Y . W . C. A. The
membership committee has been busy distributing membership cards to
each new girl.
W e had our first meeting in the Court Sunday evening, September
21. Lois Atticks, our new president, expressed the sentiments of us all
when she extended a hearty welcome to all the new girls. She also set
forth the purpose of the organization which is the development of Christ­
ian character and the prosecution of active Christian work, especially
among the young women of the school.
This summer the cabinet members of the Y . W . C. A. wrote a personal
letter to each one of the new girls who had enrolled for fall term, telling
her something about school life. W e feel that this plan was worth
while, as many of the girls have told us how much they appreciated our
letters. One girl said, “ It made me feel as if I was wanted.”
Already our treasurer, Pearl Hoffeditz, has a large box full of nickels
and dimes, gotten from the sale of chocolate. With the use of this money
we hope by the end of the year to have a well equipped Y . W . C. A. room.

THE STUDENT LEAGUE
Last year our organization was just in its infancy; but this year we
were ready to begin work at once.
M any of the old girls came early on
registration day to help Miss Stroh show the new girls to their rooms and
make them feel at home.
On Wednesday evening, September 11, the girls very informally
served tea in the Court, a function which the new girls, as well as the old,
enjoyed very much.
A mass meeting of all the girls was held in the chapel, Monday,
September 16. A t this meeting, Miss Stroh heartily welcomed the new
girls into our league and explained the purpose of it. She also appointed
an old girl as a “ student adviser” for each new girl. This student adviser
is to help her advisee in any way that she can be of service, in order to
make her feel that she is a vital part of the school.
Miss Underwood, the president of the league, then gave the girls
some very helpful remarks and explained what we hoped to do this year.
Since no organization can be carried on without funds, it was decided by a
rising vote of all the girls to pay twenty-five cents dues a year. The pro­
ceeds of this is to be used in giving informal teas, girls’ parties, etc., at
least once a month, with the hope in the near future of beginning a Student
Loan Fund.

PRESS CLUB
The press club starts its seventh year of work under most favorable
auspices and with every prospect for a profitable and interesting year.
Our membership is large, numbering over sixty; the new members are
entering into their work with much enthusiasm. W e are fully aware of
the good that we can do for the school through our work in publishing the
the school news in various newspapers of the state, and we are all trying
in this maimer to help our school forward. Some special features are
planned for this year and with the assistance of our earnest officers and
faithful members we look forward to most excellent meetings. The Club
is again under the supervision of Professor Stewart as faculty adviser.
The officers are as follows; President, C. O. Pickle, York Springs;
Vice President, Herman D. Spessard, East Waterford; Secretary, Ruth
Sheaffer, Northampton; Reporter to Dr. Lehman, Pearl G. Hoffeditz,
Greencastle, R. D . N o. 4.
Our regular meeting night is the second M onday of each month at
6:15 P. M .
We invite all former members to visit us at any time and
we would also be glad to receive note from them which we could use in
our publication. The Press Club is very much alive and determined to
do its best through the coming year.

THE GIRLS’ ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
Although Miss Conover has left us, we are glad to welcome in her
place.a very wide-awake leader, Miss Havens, our new Physical Director.
We are also glad to see so many new girls this fall and we hope to have
a large membership for our association before the year is over.
Hikes are being planned by the Senior girls. This sport is enjoyed
by the girls, especially in autumn.
The hockey season has started with more pep than usual. We hope
this is only a beginning of what will follow when basketball and baseball
are introduced.
The G. A. A. social was held in the gym Thursday evening, September
25. The special features were short talks by the heads of various sports
a faculty gym class, and the marriage of Jim Nasium and Physica
Leducation. The faculty gym class received special applause.

THE DRAMATIC CLUB
For some time we have noted a growing need for some organized in­
struction in dramatic work. Heretofore dramatic instruction was confined
to the few who were able to take part in the plays given at intervals
during the year. The greater number were left without organized in­
struction. W e have have met the long felt want of the larger number by
announcing the organization of a dramatic club. A surprising amount
of enthusiasm and interest has been displayed and there was a most en­
couraging initial enrollment of a hundred seventeen.
A t a preliminary meeting held M onday evening, September 29, or­
ganization was efiected, a president and secretary were elected and a com­
mittee appointed to draw up a constitution and bylaws.
W e purpose to study together the fundamentals of dramatic structure,
to learn to distinguish the really good play from the merely superficial,
to study some of the masterpieces of dramatic literature, to learn the basic
principles of staging, the art of make-up, etc.
It is our purpose also to furnish from the dramatic club the material
for the casts of all plays given during the year, and to supervise indirectly
the playlets used in the society programs. W e hope b y this means not
only to attain a greater proficiency in the type of plays we are able to
present but to equip our young people with a knowledge of things dramatic
— a knowledge which should prove invaluable to them in their future car­
eers.

NORMAL NOTES
Sept. 10—The belief of the Normal School management that the
Normal School would open with the largest fall term attendance in its
history was more than justified. The registration of boarding students

TH E N O RM A L SCHOOL H E R A L D

29

is already 10 per cent in advance of the highest registration at the end of
a fall term in the history of the school. As many students who expect
to enter will not be able to come for several weeks, it is likely that the
registration at the end of the fall term will still further emphasize the
largely increasing attendance of the school. The day students’ registra­
tion was also gratifyingly large. In spite of the fact that the Senior
class of last year numbered 30 more members than the present Senior
class, the total fall term attendance up to date is nearly 100 in advance of
that of last fall.
Sept. 1-5— Dr. Lehman was away from the school from September
1 to 5 attending the teachers’ institute at Mahanoy City and a farmers’
picnic held near Hummelstown. He delivered four addresses at Mahanoy
City and addressed the large gathering of farmers in the grove near
Hummelstown on the subject, “ What the Normal School can do for the
children of the farmer.”
.
Sept. 13 The first reception of the school was held on Saturday even­
ing. ^ The receiving line was made up of the members of the faculty, who
received the new students.^ Dancing was enjoyed in the gymnasium,
w lie games were provided in the parlor. A pleasant evening was spent
by all.
• ™6pt' 10~ The Y . W . C. A. gave an informal reception to the new
girls Wednesday evening. Tea and wafers were served.
Sept.^ 13— Coach Williams has been issuing his first calls for football
pratice this last week. As more than thirty boys responded, the prospects
lor a good team are very encouraging. A number of the old players who
have returned from military service wifi be found in the line-up With
such men as Shearer, Bolan, Gobrecht, and Epley to reinforce the team
of two years ago, the prospects are most satisfactory.
Sept. 13— Last week, Dr. Frank Lehman and family motored from
Bristol to Shippensburg, to spend several days visiting the families of
rof. Heiges and the principal. Mrs. Fickes also visited her daughter,
Mrs. Heiges, at the same time.
Sept. 14— Mrs. Anna Eckels, of Camden, wife of the late Dr. G. M . D .
Eckels, was a visitor at Dr. Lehman’s on Sunday afternoon. Dr. and Mrs.
N. Ort Eckels, of Carlisle, accompanied her.
. Sept. 14 Dr. Lehman spoke at the rally service of the A. M . E.
church Sunday afternoon. In the evening, he delivered an address be­
fore the Y . M . and Y . W . C. A., and installed the Y . M . C. A. officers for
the coming year.
B h
The Faculty Club held its first meeting on Tuesday evening,
ih e subject for discussion was ¡¡Russian literature before the time of
Pushkin.”
Sept. 17— Rev. H. R. Lobb, pastor of the Bethel church, conducted
the prayer meeting service at the school. His message was helpful and
inspiring.

Sept. 18— The Press Club held its first meeting in the evening. Prof.
Stewart, the faculty adviser of the club, belives that the club will be un­
usually strong this year.
Sept. 18— Dr. and Mrs. Lehman celebrated the nineteenth anniver­
sary of their wedding by giving an informal party to the faculty. Games
were played and refreshments served;
Sept. 19— The regular meeting of the Board of Trustees was held in
the afternoon in the school parlors.
Sept. 20—The Joint Reception tendered the new students b y the
Y . M . and Y . W . C. A . was unusually enjoyable. The cabinets of the two
organizations received the faculty and the students in the parlor. The
girls were furnished with heart and mittens; the young men used their
eloquence to win the former, but in many cases had to be satisfied with lat­
ter. A prize consisting of a box of candy was awarded M r. John Neill
for securing the largest number of hearts; Messrs. Ritz and Workman
divided honors in having most mittens. A program consisting of selections
from “ Ourselves as others see us” was then given. One of the most amus­
ing features was scenes from the opening day and the chapel exercises.
Different members of the faculty were cleverly portrayed by the students,
who had evidently studied the physical and temperamental characteristics
of the faculty with much care. The other numbers of the program proved
just as interesting and amusing. Prof. Heiges, as master of ceremonies,
introduced the various members with appropriate introductory speeches.
Following the program came the refreshments. The hearty joining of
all in singing the school song ended a most pleasant evening.
Sept. 24— The Girls’ Athletic Association gave a party to the new
girls and to the members of the faculty in the afternoon in the gymnasium.
After explaining the work of the assocation to the new students, the
members of the Athletic Associaation gave a program made up of various
stunts. Refreshments were served.
Sept. 26— The Y . M . G. A. boys gave their semi-annual D og party
for the new boarding boys on Friday evening. The boys were entertained
in the usual style, and initiated into the bond of good fellowship. The
usual refreshments consisting of rolls, hot dogs, and ice cream were in
evidence. After singing the school song and giving the school yells, the
party broke up at eleven.
Sept. 26— A dramatic club under the leadership of Miss Stroh has
been organized. The purpose of this club is to study dramatic construc­
tion, so as to be able to recognize and appreciate good plays. Members
of the casts are to be chosen b y try-outs. M ore than one hundred
students registered as members. Samuel W . Shearer, of East Waterford,
was elected President, and Anna Heeter, of McNeil, Secretary.
