PRINCIPAL’S LETTER TO THE ALUMNI
My Fellow Alumni:
We have been passing through a period fraught with greatest in­
terest and concern to us. During the summer the war became a very
real thing to all o f us as the young men o f our community were
called to service. From time to time we received letters from those
who had expected to be with us indicating that they had been select­
ed for service in the armies that were soon to be mobilized. There
was naturally much uncertainty on the part o f those who had not
yet reached the selective age since their services might be needed at
home to take the place o f older brothers who entered the army.
Then, too, it was necessary fo r families to readjust themselves to the
changed conditions economically and otherwise. So great was the
demand for help that girls who had heretofore not considered the
question o f work in factory and mill were induced to accept positions
at the high wages offered. In many places girls took the place o f
men as wage earners.
I f we add to this situation an unprecedented demand fo r teach­
ers,— a demand so great that directors, and even superintendents
found it necessary to urge inexperienced. young people to accept
positions as teachers,— it will easily be understood that the number
o f students likely to enter Normal and prepare fo r teaching would be
materially reduced.
We are therefore, very much gratified to be able to report that
in spite o f the loss o f twenty-five or thirty young men through the
conscriptive draft and the loss o f many young women who were in­
duced to take schools instead o f returning to school, we opened with
an attendance that approached the record breaking one o f last year.

THE

NORMAL

SCHOOL

HERALD

Prom present appearance we shall not be more than 25 students short
o f our last year’s enrollment.
I want to acknowledge personally my debt o f gratitude to those
members o f the Alumni and former students who sent us so many
students this fall. It is the personal appeal that counts1 and our
growth in recent years is easily traceable to the enthusiasm and
earnest personal work o f the Alumni.
I want to appeal to all o f you for a continuation o f this interest
fo r there has never been a time in the past 25 years when the schools
needed the services o f strong teachers as they do now. Teachers
will continue to be scarce for years to come and salaries are likely
to advance still higher. But o f what avail are high salaries if we
do not have skilled teachers to fill the places? There are more un­
prepared young people teaching in the schools o f Pennsylvania this
year than at any time within the last 20 years. I f these are to con­
tinue in the work they must receive training and direction. We
hope during the next spring term to do the very best work along
these lines that we have ever done and we want you to interest your­
selves in having young people come to us.
We are particularly anxious also to have you use your influence
in urging young people who are now in high school and the ungraded
public schools to prepare for teaching.
The schools havelosttheservices o f splendid men and women dur­
ing the past year. It is our patriotic duty and privilege to see to it
that the education o f our people does not suffer because o f lack o f
efficient teachers.
Elsewhere in THE HERALD you will find an account o f the meet­
ing o f the superintendents o f this district at Normal School. You
will note that our school is about to go actively into the extension
and correspondence field o f instruction. We believe the time is ripe
for this type o f work and that we are not doing our full duty unless
we meet the demand that is now manifested. We shall appreciate
your earnest cooperation in' making this work a success.
In another part o f THE HERALD an appeal is made to our coun­
ty Alumni Associations to make their meetings this year the most e f­
fective in their history. Some o f these associations are very active.
I f your own is not doing all the work that it is capable o f doing,
will you not help to make it more efficient?
Finally, we want you to keep in close touch with the school. We
want to make THE HERALD more helpful in solving the problems that
you have to meet. These plans will be definitely indicated in the
January number and we believe you will find them most helpful to
all o f you.
With best wishes for a most successful and prosperous year,
I am,
Fraternally yours,
EZRA LEHMAN, ’89.

PRINCIPAL’S LETTER TO ALUMNI ASSOCIATIONS
To the County, City and Borough Alumni Associations:
My Dear Friends:
I want every member o f the associations indicated above to
consider this a personal appeal to you. Your organizations have
been doing splendid work in the past. Some o f them are strong
and vigorous while others have not been nearly so efficient in
their service to themselves and the school. Your organization may
possibly be remote from the school; its numbers may not equal
those o f other organizations nearer Normal, but an effective organ­
ization does not depend primarily upon members near the school.
One o f the most effective organizations our school main­
tains is the Pittsburg Association where the work o f splendid men
like Edgar McCullough, the late Robert Watson and others like
them is shown in one o f the most active organizations connected
with the school. Dauphin county is not in this Normal School dis­
trict, but it sets the pace fo r every other organization in the
matter o f work and enthusiasm. Other organizations have been
most effective, but we appeal to all fo r greater effort at this time.
Be sure to have a live meeting o f your organization this year
during institute week or at some other time that is likely to be con­
venient fo r a large number o f your members. I hope to communi­
cate with your officers in the near future and to indicate to them
a number o f subjects that I feel are o f common interest to all o f
us. Among these I am anxious to have you consider the possibility
o f extension work in your neighborhood.
The newly organized correspondence work will make it pos­
sible for those o f you who wish additional branches on your
diploma to find the means o f gratifying your desire. This work
should be organized by the Alumni Associations.
This appeal is, however, a personal one to you. Will you not
make yourself a committee o f one to insure a good meeting in
your county or city? Notify all former students o f the school and
those graduates who are not teaching and have them come out
and meet with you. It is highly advantageous fo r you to come
to know one another. Members o f the faculty will meet with you
wherever possible. They will be glad to see you and your friends.
Sincerely yours,
EZRA LEHMAN.

A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT
WATSO.N.

Robert J. Watson, ’ 00, died Sunday, August 12,

1917, at Wildwood, N. J., aged 41 years.
These lines from the public press brought deepest sorrow and
regret to the many friends o f the brilliant young man who crossed
the Great Divide after a struggle to regain his health that had been
sapped by years of effort and industry. To the writer o f these lrnes
the death o f Robert Watson is a personal loss I S H H B |
him almost thirty years ago when he came to the Cumberland Valley
State Normal School as a student from Huntingdon county. He
was handicapped physically but no one ever failed to admire the
brilliant intellect that enabled him to hold a front place among the
students of his class.
But other students have been brilliant and maintained high class
standing. There are few, however, who could approach Robert
Watson in geniality and wholehearted helpfulness. He was every­
body’s friend and probably no student at this old institution ever
made so many friends as did “ Bob” Watson, but he never sacrificed
a principle to hold or secure a friend. He was straightforward and
manly in all his associations and every one who knew him rejoiced
at his rapid rise in the world.
After teaching a year in the public schools he entered the em­
ploy o f the Westinghouse Co., o f Pittsburgh, as a time clerk and in
1909 he was transferred to the educational department. Here e
found his life work. He became a member o f the Casino Technical
High School, then he was appointed instructor in elementary mathe­
matics and continued in that position till his death One o f his
books “ Shop Problems',” is regarded as the finest work o f its type
extant.
“ Bob ” as we all liked to call him was a most delightful com­
panion. He had enriched his mind by European travel and study
and could tell the story o f his travels in such a way as to hold the
attention o f large audiences before whom he lectured.
We all looked forward to meeting him at the annual banquet
o f the Allegheny county students at the Fort Pitt Hotel in Pitts­
burg We all remember his hearty greeting, and his cheery smile.
And now he is gone. We shall miss him from the places where
we have been accustomed to meet him, but in the larger sense he is
still with us. His work remains to bless all those who came m con­
tact with him and whose lives were enriched by his influence. No,
he is not dead; he has been called to the larger service to which Bod
calls those whose fives blessed and enriched mankind while on this
lower sphere.

A DONATION
The principal wishes to acknowledge the receipt- o f money
from two members o f the Alumni Association who do not wish their
names mentioned. This money was handed to him during Com­
mencement week with the request that he apply it where he thought
it would do most good. It has been turned into the Alumni Fund
for the education o f students who need the help o f the school.
The spirit prompting donations o f this kind is certainly gratifying. It is not the amount that is given but the spirit that prompts
the giver that counts. We regret that mention o f this donation was
inadvertently omitted from the July HERALD.

SCHOOL OF METHODS
Between three and four hundred teachers from Cumberland and
Franklin counties assembled at the Normal School Friday and Satur­
day, August 10 and 11, for the School o f Methods which has been
organized by Supts. Green o f Cumberland county, and Smith o f
Franklin county, in connection with the faculty o f the Normal
School.
The weather was ideal and teachers from every part o f the two
counties accepted the invitation o f the Normal School to share its
hospitality. Space does not permit the discussion o f the individ­
ual numbers o f the program. All who were present will agree that
the meeting was a very helpful one. The Round Table discussions
were participated in by a large number o f teachers and the ex­
change o f views was most helpful. Just before final adjournment
Dr. Lehman in replying to the resolution o f thanks that had been
passed by the institute, invited the teachers to return next year fo r a
similar meeting. The invitation was unanimously and enthusiastic­
ally accepted. A pleasing feature o f the institute not fully indicated
on the program was the music which was under the direction o f
Prof. H. L. Burkholder.

THE CONFERENCE OF SUPERINTENDENTS AT NORMAL
No meeting at the Normal School has been fraught with greater
possibilities for good than the conference o f superintendents and the
faculty o f the Normal held at the school on Thursday and Friday,
September 27-28. The meeting was entirely informal in character,—
a fact which probably added to its effectiveness. It was an effort to
get together on the part o f the school people o f the district, to discu§B1 the problems that all have in common.
. . .
„
The following superintendents responded to the invitation of
the school authorities: County Superintendent Greene o f Cumber­
land; Kauffman, o f Juniata; Roth, o f Adams; Shambaugh, o f Dau­
phin, and Smith, o f Franklin; Borough Superintendents Gordy, o f
Chambersburg; Gortner, o f Hanover; McGinnis, o f Steelton; Reber,
o f Waynesboro; Rife, o f Huntingdon, and Wagner, o f Carlisle.
Associate. Superintendents Finafrock, o f Franklin, and Shank, o f
Adams, were present as were Supervising Principal Shulenberger,
o f Shippensburg, and Dr. H. A. Surface, o f Mechanicsburg.
The conference on Thursday afternoon was devoted to the con­
sideration of the problem o f securing efficient teachers for the
schools and to the possibility o f organizing extension and corre­
spondence courses from the Normal School as a center. The super­
intendents reported that fewer young people from their high schools
were preparing for teaching. In many cases those who under ordinary
conditions would have entered Normal School, have been induced to
take short courses in business schools in order to secure positions
as stenographers and typewriters. All united in deploring a situa­
tion o f this kind which is unfortunate not only fo r the schools but
fo r the young people as well, in depriving them o f the benefits o f
broad education that will be most helpful to them later in life. It
was determined to urge high school principals and teachers to set
the advantages o f teaching as a profession before the boys and
girls in the high schools in order that they might be induced to
prepare for service o f this kind. All the county superintendents

present stated that they had a much larger percentage o f inexperi­
enced teachers in their ranks this year than heretofore. Those who
give promise o f becoming successful teachers will be urged to con­
tinue teaching and prepare themselves properly fo r the work.
Dr. Lehman then asked the co-operation o f the superintendents
in establishing extension centers in their respective counties. He
said that it was the desire o f the Shippensbuig Normal School to
come into still closer relation with the teachers and pupils. He be­
lieved the time had passed when a Normal School should confine
its efforts to those who were able to enter its class rooms. It should
carry its work to the teachers, their pupils and the patrons o f the
schools. The Normal School was now ready to offer extension work
to young teachers and other persons who were interested in the
work. The subjects already arranged fo r were the biological
sciences with special attention to their practical side, agriculture,
drawing, household economics', community music, history, rural
sociology and rural school administration, history o f education, and
special methods in various subjects. These would be offered by
the school at once. The opinion o f the superintendents was asked
both as to the need and the practicability o f a course o f the kind
indicated.
The subject was thoroughly discussed by the superintendents
the majority o f whom believed that there was at present more deinand for instruction in professional and pedagogical subjects than
in the purely academic ones. All agreed that the project deserved
support and pledged themselves to cooperate with the school author­
ities in helping to organize centers among the teachers. Dr. Sur­
face was invited to address the conference. He set forth very clear­
ly and logically the plan that he had worked out fo r extension
courses in the biological sciences. He emphasized the desirability
o f having our boys and girls come to understand and appreciate the
world about them. He showed how a taste fo r country life could be
developed by proper instruction in our schools. Work o f this kind
would do much to stem the tide o f emigration from the farm to the
city.
The possibility o f effective correspondence work in academic
and professional subjects was then discussed. Several o f the sup­
erintendents expressed the belief that courses o f this kind would do
much to stimulate continued study on the part o f those holding per­
manent certificates or Normal School diplomas.
These teachers
would be encouraged to add additional branches to their diplomas.
The superintendents remained over night at the school and the
next morning after visiting some o f the earfy morning classes, all o c­
cupied seats on the rostrum o f the chapel during the opening exercises.
By vote o f the superintendents, Dr. McGannis and Associate /Superin-'
tendent Finafrock had been selected to address the students on be-

half o f the superintendents. Dr. Lehman introducing them told the
students that he did not know just why the conference had selected
these men: possibly it was because o f their intellectual ability and
success, or because they were the handsomest men o f the party, or
because the other superintendents were more timid and bashful, but
he assured the students they would enjoy the splendid message from
both men. The students were not disappointed. Dr. McGinnis won
the students with an appropriate story and proceeded to put two
questions to them: “ Why are these superintendents here?” and
“ Why are you here?” He told them his own experience as a youngs
teacher and dwelt upon the opportunities open to young men and
women who would consecrate themselves to the work o f teaching.
Associate Superintendent Finafrock gave a concrete illustration o f
the benefits o f education in clearing away ignorance and super­
stition. He told o f the sacrifice that teachers are daily making and
urged the students to continue their studies till they had completed
the course so that they might be better fitted for the good opportun­
ities that were theirs.
The orchestra then played a selection and won the plaudits o f
the audience.
The conference reconvened at 10 o’clock and the superintendents
were given an opportunity to pass judgement upon the course o f
study in the Normal Schools. A lively discussion followed. It was
the opinion o f a majority o f the superintendents present that the
Normal Schools should emphasize still more the work in the primary
grades. Special attention should be given to the teaching o f prim­
ary arithmetic and primary reading. Other helpful suggestions were
made by those present.
The question o f credit to be given by the superintendents fo r the
work done in the Normal School and by the Normal School for the
certificates granted by superintendents was discussed at considerable
length and a satisfactory working agreement was effected. The
question o f standardization of required reading fo r students holding
provisional certificates was also discussed. It was found possible
to agree upon a system that will give the student credit fo r the
work he has passed successfully at Normal School. A general dis­
cussion brought the conference to a close. A resolution was passed
by the superintendents thanking the principal, faculty and school
authorities for their kindness and courtesy. In response to a wish
that meetings o f this kind might be held more frequently Dr. Leh­
man assured the superintendents that another meeting would be
called next fall or any time that the superintendents wished to meet
at the school.
Nearly all the superintendents remained until evening and spent
several hours in visiting the classes in the Model School and the
regular Normal classes in the administration building.

EXTENSION AND CORRESPONDENCE COURSES AT NORMAL
Mention is made, elsewhere in THE HERALD o f the extension
work that will be organized at Normal during the coming winter. It
remains only to make a few specific statements in regard to this
work.
A c mrse will be established wherever not fewer than ten teach­
ers or other persons interested in educational work, will enroll for
the course. It will be necessary to hold the meetings at a place
convenient o f access either by rail or other means o f travel. It is
suggested that teachers o f a township or two or three townships
combined arrange to take work o f this kind during the coming
winter.
best results are obtained where meetings are arranged
every two weeks or, where intensive study is desired, every week.
I f desired, two courses can be taken at the same time alternating
each week. The best time fo r these meetings will be Friday evenings
or Saturdays, but where a center is located near the school it will
be possible to select a mid-week evening.
The method o f conducting these courses will vary with the
subject taught, but in nearly every case it will presuppose the
study o f certain assigned work during the week, a discussion o f
this work or a lecture upon it with a written report o f the work
done from time to time. In some cases demonstration work will
form a considerable part o f the course. This is notably true in the
pedagogical courses.
H
The number o f meetings in each branch will vary from six to
fifteen according to the type o f work given. It is not possible with­
in the limited space at our command here to give details o f all the
work. All persons interested are invited to correspond with the
schooi authorities with regard to this work and full information
will be given.
The expenses o f a course are not high. It will be necessary
tor the center to arrange fo r the traveling and local expenses o f
e instructor. In addition to this the expense will vary proably
from $1.50 to $3 fo r each member. The number o f those taking
the. course will enter into the question o f expense.
The following courses wifi be offered this season: Rural
Sociology, Dr. Lehman; Rural School Administration, Dr. Lehman;
Severai courses in Biology with special emphasis upon nature
study and the economic value o f plant and animal life, Dr. H. A. Surtace; History o f Education and Mathematics, Prof. Heiges; Aericuiture. Prof. Graham; Drawing and Household Economics, Miss
Irene Huber; Courses in Special Methods with demonstration work,

munity Singing, Prof. Burkholder. In addition to these courses
others are being arranged and will be given if there is a call

for them. Correspondence courses will be organized in such sub­
jects as seem most in demand. The purpose o f the correspondence
work will be to enable those who were graduated in the two and
three year courses to add additional branches to their certificates
by having their study directed while away from the school. It will
also enable students who expect to be examined fo r professional or
permanent certificates to prepare themselves fo r the examinations.
All persons interested in either extension or correspondence
courses are urged to communicate with the principal and full infor­
mation will be given them in regard to the work.

NEW MEMBERS OF THE FACULTY
The older students on returning to Normal missed a number o f
familiar faces among the faculty. Among the missing were P rof. C.
E. Fanning who has secured a fine position as a teacher o f English
in the U. S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, Md. Prof. Fanning did
splendid work in his department and made himself felt in many de­
partments o f school activities. THE HERALD wishes him abundant
success in his new field. Miss Macy, who fo r the past three years
has been an efficient teacher o f biological sciences resigned to ac­
cept a position in the Johnstown City High School.
The other changes were anonunced in the July issue o f THE
HERALD.
As indicated in that issue, Miss Lillian Trego o f Swarthmore,
Miss Marion Conover, o f Madison, Wis., Miss Minerva Adams, o f
Ocean City, N. J., and Mr. Robert L. Myers, Jr., Camp Hill, had been
elected to positions on the faculty for the coming year. Since that
time three additional members o f the faculty have been elected.
Prof. S. S. Shearer, who proved himself one o f the most
popular and successful spring term teachers that we have ever had
was elected to fill the position made vacant by Miss Macy’s departure.
No selection could have been more popular with our student body,
and the school congratulates itself on the acquisition o f Prof.
Shearer to its teaching force. He is a graduate o f this institution,
class o f ’07, and o f Ursinus in ’16.
Miss Virginia Harlow, o f Auburn, N. ¥., a graduate o f Mt..
Holyoke College, has come to us to take Prof. Fanning’s place as
head o f the English department. She has had successful experience
in high school work and comes to us with the highest recommenda­
tions from her supervisors. She has already impressed herself upon
the student body as a young woman o f much ability as an instructor.
She will come into intimate contact with the readers o f THE HERALD
as she has assumed the editorship o f this journal apd begins her
work with this issue. Miss Trego will be her assistant. We be-

THE

lieve the interests o f THE HERALD will not suffer in the hands o f
these capable editors.
Prof. H. L. Burkholder, principal o f Bloserville High School for
a number o f years and well known to our students as a former spring
term teacher, has resigned his position at Bloserville to take charge
o f the work in penmanship and manual training. He is well qualifi­
ed for this work and is so well known as a successful teacher through­
out the Cumberland Valley that no further comment need be made on
his election. He has made an excellent record for himself as an or­
ganizer o f community singing societies and will continue that work
in thé extension courses o f the Normal.

RED CROSS WORK
The students in the Domestic Art classes under Miss Huber ar
going to get their credits by doing Red Cross work. Instead o f 1
making a set o f garments fo r themselves, the girls are sewing for l
the boys at the front. At present, they are working on hospital I
shirts, each girl making at least one shirt; pajamas will be their next j
undertaking; then whatever is most needed by those looking after ft
these supplies.
The Red Cross Chapter o f Shippensburg is supplying the '"'d
material used by the classes.
A few girls o f the school are now knitting scarfs and sweaters
for the local Red Cross and we are planning to gather together as
many girls as wish to do the work, one evening a week, after dinner
until study period and teach them to knit surgical sponges or wipes
or any other similar pieces that may be needed and that can be used
as pick-up” work by the girls while waiting fo r “ bells.”
This work we feel will have a double value, that o f using odd
moments for others which we hope will grow into a larger com­
munity service. >

FRENCH
A department o f French offering one course, first year French,
as been created. The course is an elective and has been cordial­
ly received by seniors and juniors who alone are eligible fo r admis­
sion. More than fifty per cent o f the senior class have elected
french and are meeting in two sections five periods each week. The
junior class forms still another section.

to gain familiarity with the Parisian accent. The classes are
reading easy French stories and will before the close o f the year’s
work read some good literature. The spirit o f the course will seek
by recalling French history and teaching the rudiments o f French
government and politics, art, and literature to sketch at least rough­
ly the character o f the French people.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION

V

In the department o f Physical Education every girl has been
given an examination to determine her particular needs and limita­
tions. Schedules will soon be arranged fo r giving individual cor­
rective work to those who are in need o f it. The classes have been
organized. The freshmen and sophomores are being given a regular
graded course in gymnastics, games and dancing. The juniors
have a course in playing and teaching games and gymnastics. The
course for the seniors consists o f folk dancing and the problems o f
physical education in the public schools. Hockey, the new fall
sport, has already been begun. The game affords opportunity for
all the girls in school who care to go out fo r the practice which
will be given every afternoon from four until five. Class teams will
be organized to play a series o f games fo r the school championship.

FOOT BALL
The football situation at Normal is acute. It is impossible at
this time to prophesy as to the possibility o f our season being a
success. We have suffered greatly by enlistment and draft and can
but conjecture as to our comparative strength. However, let us not
judge our team by archaic standards. The war in the throes o f its
convulsions has changed even the athletic ideaLI No more can a
school be proud o f its football team o f eleven ffien only. The call
o f the country is fo r more men trained in the school sports. The
aim is to have a larger proportion take advantage o f every op­
portunity to secure athletic training. The standard, therefore,^ will
not be the number o f games won, but the number o f players trained.
Of course the possibility o f victory is greatly increased when the
squad is large, but let us put aside as secondary and unpatriotic the
©ole ambition to win games.
Shippensburg: Normal light o f this new standard. Although our ranks are decimated there
are still thirty-five or forty boys who have the brains and brawn to
stand the strain o f football training. 'The attitude ofj ¡the student© to ­
ward football is not as enthusiastic as it should be; let us not be pessi­
mistic but let us sing the praises o f the valiant few, cur team. Al-

though it is composed o f but eighteen, our squad is alive. It is
composed o f the best in the school and our hopes run high. Inex­
perienced and unsupported but full o f “ pep” and determination, is
the best way to describe it. The loss o f many veterans is keenly
felt but the ease with which the new men absorb the fundamentals o f
the game is encouraging. Too much praise can not be given these
boys who make the sacrifice all should be making. We hope and we
feel confident that they will receive their just reward, the laurels o f
victory.

work o f the association is upon a firm basis, and every­
thing is working smoothly.The association as a whole is very much
interested and the cooperation o f the members is fine. Partly upon
this we are basing our success as an organization.
p ,° ,f „Friday evenini?> September 21, the association held a “ Dog
Barty for the purpose o f welcoming the new boys and getting ac­
quainted with them. The entertainment consisted o f initiation,
games, music and refreshments. The annual social o f the Y. W. C.
A. and Y. M. C. A. was held on Saturday, September 22. The en­
tertainment was a complete success.
The two delegates who were sent to the Blairstown conference
roug very many good suggestions and ideas for the carrying on
. the work, thereby showing that they had the welfare of. the association m mmd Their entire report centered around the thought
o f what the Y. M. C. A. is doing and can do to better the lives o f
those who are now or soon will be in the service o f their country.
We still have our customary meetings on Sunday and Thursday
evenings Our work consists mainly o f volunteer programs, in which
everybody wants to take a part. We have found that volunteer work
Plays a very important part in our meetings. The attendance is
greater,and it seems to put “ Pep” into the meetings.

“ BlairstownB
You are amazed and ask:
“ What and where
is Blairstown?” Had I said Northfield, all woulAbe plain. Blairs­
town is the Northfield for preparatory and normal schools.
In the latter part o f June while our country was m the midst of
w a r“
: assembled in the quiet town o f Blairstown | northern
S w Jersey, for a week’s conference, about three hundred and fifty
vounsr fellows from the different “ prep” and normal schools o f the
eastern part o f the United States. These fellows represented the
Y. M. C. A.’s o f their respective schools.
What did you do? How was the week spent? Allow me to
giveTou the nucleus o f the daily program: two M B B B B
a Bible study class, a Mission study class and an afternoon o f spOTt
such L baseball, tennis, swimming or a tramp into the beautiful
surrounding country.

this to be true in the officer assignments o f our government. I f the
school men aré to be leaders, which way will they lead? The
burden falls upon the Y. M. C. A. We learned that the day o f form­
ality is over and that actuality is what is needed. Again the task
falls upon the Y. M. C. A.
The speaker included Fletcher Brockman, George Irving, Tom
Farmer, Robert E. Speer and others o f wide experience in the work
o f the Y. M. C. A. Each one had a message that made a deep im­
prints upon the minds o f the hearers. And after each address, one
could hear among the delegates such remarks as,' “ That was the
most wonderful address that I have ever heard.”
But we believe the greatest benefit o f all was derived from
rubbing elbows with other fellows, fellows who hâve had the same
problems, temptations, and experiences as we have had. Especially
was this true among the Normal group, for the Normal School
fellows got together and talked over matters, laid down plans for the
coming year, and even planned to correspond so that we might be
mutually benefitted. Truly, we can say that the richest experiences
which we had at Blairstown were those that occurred in the delega­
tion meetings o f the Normal School group.
We have one regret however, and it is that the number from
C. Y. S. N. S. was small. I f there is a Blairstown next year, and
we trùst there will be, we hope that there may be at least five in the
delegation from the “ ivy covered buildings.”

EAGLES MERE CONFERENCE
On the morning o f June twenty-sixth, five o f our Y. W. C. A.
girls, chaperoned by Miss Snively, set out for Eagles Mere. Those
who went were Olive Garber ’19, Blanche Heiges ’18, Grace Fergu­
son ’18, Grace Zimmerman ’18, and Esther Secrist ’18.
The ride on the little mountain train, which after a hard
struggle landed on the mountain top with 175 girls fo r the con­
ference, lingers in the memory. To most o f the girls this was a new
experience. The first glimpse o f Eagles Mere was a wonderful sight
in the twilight. The lake o f which the circumference is three miles,
is situated in the center o f the mountain top.
We registered, had dinner, and then retired to our rooms which
were cooled bÿ thé mountain breeze. In the morning, at seven
o’clock all were aroused, and a half an hour later met in the dining
room. At 8:30, the summons to the auditorium fo r assembly hour
was answered. Classes o f two kinds— Bible and mission study—

consisted o f lectures and meetings o f the girls in the various .rooms
A Sunday at Eagles Mere is never forgotten. Morning watch is
the beginning o f the day. Vesper service is the most impressive o
the day and church services are held morning and evening.

NORMAL LITERARY SOCIETY
Readers o f THE HERALD and Friends o f Normal : At the begin­
ning o f the year, when everyone is busied with new school and social
duties, Normal Literary Society is playing an active part in school
affairs. All old members who have returned to us are going to work
with a will and determination that marks the road to success.
We have had many visitors at our meetings this term and have
taken in twenty-six new members.
Our Glee Club is doing excellent work and now has a member­
ship o f twenty-four. The Normal Orchestra o f eight pieces is also
worthy o f commendation.
The Society is well represented in the ranks o f Uncle Sam as
the following young men are now in the army : Frank Carbaugh, ’17 ;
Harry Taylor, ’18; Monroe Gobrecht, ’ 18; George Epley, ’19; and
Fred Lamberson, ’19.
To all interested in literary society work and especially to old
Normalités we give a hearty welcome to come and hear our society
song as it resounds through the hall, for
“ Renowned throughout our land
Her name illustrious stands,
The champions o f the rights o f men,
A valiant, chosen band.
Then too, a noble train,
Of cunning hand and brain,
Give story to old Normal,
Which ever shall remain.
Secretary, Ruth L. Emmert, ’18.

THE PHILO LITERARY SOCIETY
The Philomathean Literary Society has begun the new year with
bright hopes fo r a very progressive and prosperous future.
The old members have came back from their summer vacation
with renewed interests for Philo. Their efforts were seen when
forty new members were received into the society the first few meet­
ings o f the term and we expeet this number to increase.
The programs show by their excellency that our members are

18

NORMAL

SCHOOL

talented, active and alert. One o f the most interesting numbers on
our weekly program in which we are specializing! is (the
“ Surprise Feature.” One o f these that received approbation from
all who saw it was the Philo Review given very originally by Miss
Romaine Nell.
A new orchestra consisting o f ten pieces has been organized
under the leadership o f Mr. Norman Hetrick. Some o f the players
are new members o f Philo and others are old.
Among the old
students are Rex Clugston, Marguerite Fleschutz, Samuel Shearer,
Guy Snader, Ralph Angle, Zenia Miller and John McClay.
The Glee Club has become a Philo organization and with Miss
Adams’ direction we know it will be more o f a success than ever.
Before it simply existed; now it is an organization. Every member
is required to pay twenty-five cents. I f a member fails to come to
rehearsal he is fined five cents from this fee; if he is tardy, two
cents. When his fee is exhausted in this manner he must pay
twenty-five cents again. Of course allowance will be made if there
is a good reason for absence or tardiness.
The patriotic spirit o f Philo was plainly shown when by a un­
animous vote a large beautiful silk flag was bought and dedicated to
the boys who represent our school at the front. This flag will float
continually from the rostum as a token o f respect to them.
Philo invites and urges all former members o f the society and
those interested in our work to be present at our meetings, to see
the work we are doing, how our ranks have increased and to offer
suggestions. We assure you all a hearty welcome.
Mary C. Byerly, ’18, Secretary.

pleasant affair. A committee o f the faculty with Prof. Heiges as
chairman was in charge o f the social. The halls were tastefully
decorated with banners and pennants. Pall flowers also entered
into the Scheme o f decoration. The receiving committee was made
up o f the cabinets o f the two organizations with Prof. Heiges and
Miss Snively representing the faculty. By means o f a satisfactory
device the new students found themselves grouped with the older
students and all repaired to the chapel where an entertainment that
was not lacking in variety was presented. First came the “ Ringless
Circus” with its clown, hypnotist, strong woman and other far famed
characters. Miss Watkeys and Mr. Bolan sang the well known
motion song “ Over There” with pleasing effect. The next on the
program was the “Mock Wedding” which gave opportunity for every
variety o f costume. Autumn flowers and weeds formed the bride’s
and bride’s maids bouquets. Miss Nora Ernest made a striking groom
and Mr. Harper Wentz sustained the character o f the blushing bride.
Miss Adams o f the vocal music department sang the story o f the
possum and the rabbit and the ’ simmon tree and was heartily
encored. Miss Watkeys rendered an instrumental number on thé
piano after which a trio o f black faced mammies, Misses Spath,
Stimmell and Widney sang “ Massa’ s in de Cold, Cold Ground” with
fine effect. Prof. Heiges then announced that “ Mock Refreshments’*
would be served in the hall. But no one had iany fault to find with the
bill o f fare which consisted o f sandwiches o f various kinds, pickles,
ice cream and cocoa. By this time the ten bell had rung and the
reception came to an end.

EXTENSION COURSES
We give below a brief outline o f the extension courses that our
school is prepared to give this year. We recommend this work to
ambitious teachers as a most satisfactory means o f systematic di­
rected study. As credit will be given at our school for the work that
is completed, it will shorten the time o f attendance required at the
school. IT BRINGS THE SCHOOL TO YOU.
The expenses are not heavy. It will be necessary fo r the teach­
ers or other interested persons to provide a place where meetings
can be held and to arrange fo r the travelling and local expenses o f
the instructor.
Nearly all the courses are given for a very nominal rate, $50.00
and expenses for ten meetings. The actual expense fo r the instruc­
tion will vary with the number taking the course. I f there are ten
members in the class the expense will be $ 5.00 each; if 20, $2.50; i f
40, $1.25, and so forth. In a few cases the expeses are slightly
higher.
As indicated elsewhere correspondence courses will be offered in
a numberof subjects. This work can be taken by students individu­
ally or in classes. This will be a splendid opportunity fo r graduates
who wish to add additional branches to their diplomas. It will also
be o f value to students who wish to prepare for a professional or
pennanent certificate. All persons interested should write to the
principal for full particulars.

COURSE IN RURAL SOCIOLOGY
DR. LEHMAN
Ten Lectures— $50 and Expenses. The cost to each person tak­
ing the course will depend upon the number enrolled. Text used:
Constructive Rural Sociology— Gillettee, published by Sturgis & Wal­
ton Co., New York.
The course will consist o f lectures, assigned readings, discus­
sions and written reports. It will cover the following points:
essential difference between rural and city life; tendency o f young
people to migrate to the city; cause and cúre; the present con­
dition o f the country home, school and church; the possible means
o f improving these.
Where desired an intensive study will be made o f the rural
schools with special attention to the course o f study and the type o f
teacher required.
The question o f sanitation and its consequent effect upon the
physical and moral nature will be considered. The question o f farm
help will also .be investigated.
The rural communities need efficient leadership and the part

32

THE

NORMAL

SCHOOL

HERALD

to be played by tbe borne, the church and the school in developing
this leadership will be discussed.
The rural problem is one involving a socialization o f all forces,
economic, educational and religious. An effort will be made to show
how this can be effected.

NATURAL SCIENCES AND HORTICULTURE
10 to 15 meetings— to be arranged. Expense will vary with num­
ber taking course and number o f meetings. It will range from $3.00
to $6.00.
.
The Normal Extension Service in Natural Science and Horticul­
ture will be in charge o f H. A. Surface, Doctor o f Science, who has had
successful experience in a similar work. It is thought best to offer
this as a combination o f correspondence courses and peripatetic
teaching. By the latter is meant traveling instructorship, to meet
local classes or clubs at such intervals and times as may be found
best for all concerned. A class in any community will be supplied
with mimeographed lessons prepared expressly fo r the occasion, as­
signed reference literature, and will be met by the teacher once in every
two weeks or monthly, as may be arranged at the time o f the first
meeting. Among the lessons will be original and simplified analytic
-keys fo r determining the orders, families, and common and scientific
names o f the objects o f Nature o f various kinds, and all groups be­
longing to the animal, vegetable and mineral kingdoms found about us.
Students will be taught how to make, label and preserve collec­
tions o f Natural History material and domestic products, and special
attention will be given to the economic applications o f the subjects
or their relations to mankind and human industries.
Among the specific courses offered are the following: (1)
Mammals; (2) Birds; (3) Reptiles; (4) Fishes; (5) Invertebrate
Animals; (6) Insects; (7) The Butterflies; (8) Insects Injurious to
Fruit Trees; (9) Insects Injurious to Garden Plants and Flowers, e tc;
(10) Our Native Trees in Winter; (11) Our Native Trees in Summer;
(12) Native Flowering Plants; (13) The Botany o f Cultivated Plants;
(14) Minerals and Soils; (15) Horticulture, or General Fruit Grow­
ing; (16) Agriculture.
Applicants fo r this service are urged to select the course or
courses desired and write for further information to, Dr. H. A.
Surface, Mechanicsburg, Pa.

Agriculture is not a text book subject and so all work will be
taught by means o f experiments, demonstrations and actual practice
when possible. Warren’s Elements o f Agriculture will be the prin­
cipal reference book. State and U. S. Dept. Agriculture Bulletins
will be utilized.
Persons taking this course will be required to do much reading
and reference work together with as much practical application o f
the instruction as conditions permit.
The extension school instruction may be supplemented with cor­
respondence work when so desired.
Arrangements as to time o f meeting may be made with

t h e

n o r m a l

s c h o o l

h e r a l d

a discussion by the class. A few; questions will be given in each
lesson to guide the class- For example, on Greece. 1. Note that
in education, as. in every great question, Greece was divided into two
great rival nations, the Spartans and the Athenians, (a) What were
the dominant principles, represented by the Spartans in contrast to
the Athenian? (b) Do you think these great social and political
principles still affect the educational system o f these states? (c)
Can you trace any connection at the present, day between the politca l and social ideals o f a country and its educational system? 2.
The Grecians gave much attention to music. In your school work,
and indeed in your own life, (a) Have you thought o f the effect o f
music upon your life? (b) Have you considered the use that might
be made o f music to strengthen character and to make life more at­
tractive and beautiful? 3. Wherein was the Spartan system at
fault?
Preparation— Preparation o f lesson will consist o f study o f text
and assigned readings. I f credit for work is desired, some outline
work will be required and a final examination will be given.
At least two illustrated talks will be given in connection with the
course.
The time for the lessons will be on Friday evenings or Saturdays
as the class determines. Any other evening may be selected if the
meeting place permits returning the same evening.
History o f Education has the power to rationalize the teaching
as well as the course o f study. The work o f the whole course will
keep this in mind.

EXTENSION COURSE IN GENERAL METHODS
PROF. J. S. HElGES
Cost— 10 lessons for $50 and traveling expenses. The cost fo r
each one depends upon number taking. It will cost $5.00 each if 10
take it, $2.50 if 20 take it.
Text book— The Teaching Process— Strayer.
Some collateral reading will be required.
Recitation— Part o f the time will be given to discussion and part
to lecture. Opportunity will be given for the asking o f questions rel­
ative to everyday problems.
It is well to know whither our education is tending, and to un­
derstand the general principles belonging to the teaching process
irrespective o f the subjects being taught. General Methods give this
necessary information.
Some o f the subjects to be discussed follow :
Aim o f education and its realization.
Instinct in relation to education— such as play, curiosity.
Assignment o f lessons.

EXTENSION COURSE IN HISTORY
MRS. HARRIET WYLIE STEWART
10 meetings— $50.00 and expenses.
History courses will be given in the first and second year. They
will cover American History, English History, Ancient History, Me­
dieval History and Modem History.
In the history o f the United States special stress will be laid on
the methods o f teaching this subject in the country schools and how
to make it interesting to children. Facts must be learned but most o f
the course will be along the lines o f presentation o f the subject.
This course can be given in ten or fifteen lessons. Lectures on the
leading biographies o f men' and women o f each period can also be
given. Credit fo r this course will be given fo r freshman work.
The English History course should ran along with the American
course, fo r without the one the other cannot effectively be taught.
After a brief study o f the country o f England and the Danes, the
lines can be studied from the Normans to the Hanoverians, running
parallel with the history o f the United States from the Tudor line..
The work in this subject could be given in 15 lessons. Comparisons

must be drawn and the lines o f kings learned in their order. This is
a course for teachers who are ambitious to be up in their history
work and it will also give them credit fo r the first year work in the
Normal School. Tor full information and outline o f each course

COURSE IN COMMUNITY SINGING
PROF. H. L. BURKHOLDER
The aim o f this course is to present the elements o f musical no­
tation and to give sufficient practice and drill so that those o f aver­
age musical ability will be able to read and sing simple music at sight.
The needs o f church, school and home are kept constantly m mind.
The plan suggested is to enlist the interest o f the ministers,
Sunday School superintendents, public school teachers, and other
leaders o f the community.
The scope o f the work covers the rudiments, drills m scales, time,
measure, and enough o f theory to enable intelligent reading by notes.
Heading by syllable begins with the first lesson. I f desired, the
course of lessons can be arranged to lead up to the public program
a t the close.
,

..
Books to be used and other like details can he arranged to suit
the individual class.
. 3- -3 1
While the number o f lessons can be made to suit the individual
•class, it should consist o f at least 15.
The place o f meeting is left to each community to decide. How­
ever, experience has proven that the church is to be preferred on ac­
count o f better lighting, heating, seating and size o f room.
The expenses, other than books, transportation o f instructor,
and car fare, would be a minimum o f $5.00 per lesson.
Communities interested in a course o f lessons, as above outlined,
should correspond with the school, and arrange fo r a meeting. I
•shall be glad to attend any such meeting within return distance o f
.the school and take up the work in detail.

ARBOR DAY, OCTOBER 26, 1917.
In keeping with the governor’s proclamation, the twenty-sixth
o f October was observed at Normal School as Arbor Day. The
rostrum in the chapel was unusually well decorated fo r the occasion.
In the center o f the background C. V. S. N. S. 1918 pennants had
been arranged in a huge circle from the center o f which festoons
o f autumn leaves were hung extending out to the stage curtain. On
this curtain were hung leaf-covered letters spelling the words Arbor
Day. The front o f the rostrum was banked with large branches of*
beautifully colored oak leaves.
The program fo r the afternoon was as follow s:

Mr. Samuel Shearer, as president o f the senior class, conducted
the meeting and delivered the opening address. He said in part:
“ It is well that we should celebrate our Arbor Day thoughtfully f o r
within our lifetime the nation’s need o f trees will become serious.
The older generation can get along with what it has, though withgrowing hardship; but in our generation we shall want what Nature
once so bountifully supplied and man so thoughtlessly destroyed;
and because o f that want we shall be reproached, not fo r what we
have used, but for the opportunities we have wasted. I f our Arbor
Day exercises help us to realize what benefits each o f us receives
from the forest and how by our assistance these benefits may con­
tinue, they will serve a great end.”
Mr. Hays showed how the other great holidays such as Christ­
mas, Easter, and the Fourth o f July stand for something very
definite in our minds, whereas our ideas o f Arbor Day are often
vague. To make the conception o f Arbor Day more concrete fo r
us, he gave a brief outline o f the history o f the day, telling how in
1872 the idea originated with J. Sterling Morton o f Nebraska.
Eleven years later the celebration o f Arbor Day became connected
with the schools, and the idea has now spread so fa r that this day
is observed once or twice a year by the schools throughout our na­
tion. Mr. Hays Ishowed how every school teacher should do his bit on
Arbor Day by planting a tree, by caring for that tree, and by im­
proving school grounds. He said in conclusion: “ We should aim to
change the prevailing attitude toward Arbor Day. Let us make it

a living day, one that the children will remember, and one that will
fill the memory with pleasant and lasting recollections. May we
plant a tree; may we care for that tree; may we improve and
beautify our school environment and thereby create a greater in­
terest in our schools.”
Dr. Lehman spoke commending the seniors fo r the program
which they had prepared, and particularly recommending to the
whole school the hearty celebration o f this day. He urged the
students to go without fail to the further exercises on the campus
where the planting o f four trees was to give practical expression to
the principles voiced by the speakers.
On the campus these four trees were presented to the school by
representatives o f the four classes: Mr. Warren spoke fo r the
senior class, Mr. Taylor fo r the junior class, Mr. Myers fo r the
sophomores, and Mr. Markert for the freshmen. Dr. Lehman ac­
cepted the trees in behalf o f the school.
