In  this  volume  of  the  Sequelle  we  wish  to  bring  before  you  the  life  of 
the  student  as  has  been  spent  during  the  year  of  '12  and  '13  as  well  as  to 
show,  in  part,  the  work  done  in  each  department  of  our  school. 

We  sincerely  hope  that  this  Sequelle  may  bring  back  as  fond  memories

Class  History 


Dear  Reader: — I  am  sure,  if  you  have  ever  been  requested  to  write 
the  history  of  your  class,  it  will  be  no  hard  task  to  imagine  the  present  writer 
racking  his  brain  in  a  fruitless  endeavor  to  find  some  trace  of  literary  under- 
standing. Thus  at  the  beginning  I  offer  my  humble  apology  of  my  inability 
to  do  justice  to  "Our  Class    13." 

It  was  on  a  sultry  September  day  in  the  year  1910,  that  a  band  of  stu- 
dents, "Our  Class,"  began  their  pilgrimage  in  search  of  the  fountain  of 
knowledge  at  C.  S.  N.  On  our  arrival  we  were  met  by  the  Faculty  and 
upper  classmen  of  the  Normal.  Everything  was  all  very  new  and  strange 
to  us,  but  with  the  assistance  and  kindness  of  our  beloved  Dr.  J.  George  Becht 
we  were  all  made  to  feel  very  much  at  home  before  we  had  spent  many  hours 
at  the  Normal. 

After  a  few  weeks  a  meeting  was  called  and  we  organized  as  the 
"Junior  Class."  Of  course,  like  all  other  "Juniors,"  we  soon  began  to  feel 
our  importance  but  this  was  quickly  taken  out  of  us.  On  all  sides  we  were 
classed  as  the  "Greenies."  The  Seniors  dedicated  a  little  poem  to  us  which 
was  as  follows: — 

I  stood  upon  the  mountain 

And  looked  upon  the  plain, 

I  saw  a  lot  of  green  stuff — 

I  thought  'twas  waving  grain; 

I  looked  a  little  closer 

And  thought  it  must  be  grass. 

But,  goodness!  to  my  horror, 

It  was  the  Junior  Class. 

The  Middlers  sang  it  to  us  in  these  few  touching  lines: — 
"We  pass  the  green  Juniors  by 
With  their  silly  little  grin." 

We  resented  this  and  it  was  with  pain  that  we  realized  our  inferiority. 
We  resolved  to  be  meek  and  unoffensive  only  for  a  time,  during  which  period 
we  worked  with  new  zeal  and  a  stronger  incentive  than  before. 

Our  first  appearance  before  the  public  was  in  the  Gymnastic  Exhibition. 
This  made  us  feel  that  we  were  a  real  part  of  the  "School." 

The  next  event  of  note  was  our  "Junior  Promenade."  This  was  a  bril- 
liant affair  on  the  campus  and  we  received  much  praise  for  making  it  such  a 
success.  Finally  there  came  the  "State  Board"  of  which  we  had  heard  so 
much.  Every  recommended  Junior  passed  successfully  and  thus  ended  our 
first  year's  work. 


On  our  return  the  following  September  a  few  of  our  class-mates  were 
absent  from  our  ranks  but  many  new  faces  appeared  to  fill  the  vacancies.  We 
entered  upon  our  second  year  with  more  confidence  and  self-reliance  than 
did  we  the  previous  year.  Now  we  were  "Middlers"  and  had,  as  such,  be- 
gun to  feel  the  importance  of  our  station,  and  the  "Seniors"  likewise  began 
to  feel  our  increased  strength  and  dignity.  Especially  was  this  manifested 
when  we  refused  to  have  our  picture  taken  under  their  banner. 

During  the  winter  term  we  gave,  in  way  of  entertainment,  an  Operetta, 
"Miss  Bob  White."  This  was  a  great  star  in  our  crown.  Many  of  the 
Faculty  said  it  was  without  doubt  the  best  entertainment  ever  given  by  any 
previous  class.  It  was  such  a  "hit"  that  we  were  requested  to  give  it  a 
second  time. 

We  underwent  again  the  strain  of  "State  Board"  and  the  "Campus 
Pageant"  and  very  successfully  closed  our  second  year. 

Now  we  are  the  "Dignified  Senior  Class,"  the  largest  that  has  ever  been 
enrolled  in  C.  S.  N.  Thus  far  we  have  met  with  no  failures.  In  all  athletic 
games  we  have  been  victors  over  the  other  classes.  In  the  "Gymnastic  Ex- 
hibition" the  "Seniors"  were  the  center  of  attraction.  Our  play  "Ingomar" 
could  not  have  been  better.  Likewise  in  every  undertaking  we  have  done  our 
best,  and  no  one  can  question  our  superiority. 

But  now  our  days  at  C.  S.  N.  are  growing  fewer  day  by  day  and  soon 
we  shall  stand  in  "array"  for  the  final  "survey."  And  we  hope  that  the 
Faculty  and  the  world  at  large  will  deem  us  worthy  of  the  honor  soon  to 
be  bestowed  upon  us.  Through  our  school  days  we  have  stood  strong  and 
undivided,  although  we  have  suffered  severe  strains  when  everything  went 
"dead  wrong,"  yet  we  have  always  remembered  the  words  of  Longfellow — 

Oh,  fear  not  in  a  world  like  this. 

And  thou  shalt  know  erelong. 
Know  how  sublime  it  is 

To  suffer  and  be  strong. 


Class  Poem 

As  the  raindrops  come  together; 
Large  ones,  small  ones,  of  all  sizes, 
From  the  hilltops,  from  the  valleys. 
Among  the  flowers,  in  leafy  bowers. 
Or   from  stony  dismal   rock  beds. 
And  join  to  make  the  sparkling  brook. 
So  we  came   from  town  and   farmhouse, 
We,  the  class  of  1913. 

Joined  in  pleasure  and  m  labor. 
We  began  our  sailing  gaily. 
In  the  channels  of  our  school  life. 
At  the  Clarion  Normal  School, 
Flowing  thru   the   grassy   meadows 
Wooded  with  the  trees  of  knowledge. 
On  the  banks  grow  flowers  o(  friendship 
Making  bright  the  future  pathway. 

And  as  we  babbled  merrily 
In  brilliant  wit  and  humor  sparkling, 
^'et  we  ne'er  forgot  our  labor. 
Toiled  on  earnest  and  persistent 
As  the  water  on  the  bed  rock 
Chose  our  motto  to  that  purpose. 
Made  it,  "Labor  omnia  vincit," 
And  kept  it  truly  to  the  end. 

When  we  wished  an  emblem  for  us. 
That  should  be  our  banner  royal. 
Be  a  banner  true  in  battles. 
We  chose  our  colors  blue  and  white. 
That  stand  for  truth  and  purity. 
Made  them  ours  to  be  forever 
Loyal  to,  upholding  them  by  word. 
But  more  by  every  de^  of  ours. 

22 


Thus  in  ever  widening  channels 
Wended  we  a  varying  course 
Through  woodland  glades  of  quiet  work. 
Past  flowery  dells  of  joy  and  pleasure. 
And,  if,  perhaps  o'er  rocks  of  strife 
We  tarried  turbulent  awhile 
Beneath  the  shadow  of  discord, 
'Twas  to  love  the  sunshine  better. 

When  we  come  at  last  to  where 
We  join  the  broader  stream  of  life. 
The  wider  view  and  vision  bright 
Of  greater  power  will  make  us  glad. 
But  in  midst  of  best  success 
In  future  years  come  memories 
Of  the  sweetest  part  of  the  journey 
At  the  dear  Normal  School.

We  are  the  Seniors, 
So   good   and   true; 
Our  colors  now  are  White  and  Blue, 

Yes,  White.  Blue, 
They  are  the  best  that  ever  will  be. 
We'll  gain  the  victory.

We  are  the  Class  of   1913 
Of  all  the  classes  we  reign  supreme!

Helen  Susanna  Allen  got  her  first  vista  of  the  world  in  Titusville. 
Pa.  Her  very  early  life  was  spent  there,  but  later  she  went  to  live 
in  New  Castle,  Pa.  Here  she  received  her  education,  being  a  graduate 
of  the  New  Castle  High  School.  In  the  Spring  of  1912,  she  passed 
the  Junior-Middle  exams  at  Slippery  Rock  Normal.  On  September 
12,1912,  after  a  delightful  trip  on  the  B.  &  O.  R.  R.,  and  one  of  those 
never-to-be-forgotten  trips  from  Clarion  Junction,  our  little  Helen 
wended  her  way  to  Seminary  Hall  where  she  enrolled  as  a  member 
of  the  Class  of  1913.  Helen  is  a  bright,  industrious  girl  and  her 
winning  ways  have  won  many   friends   for  her. 


Alice  Alter, 
Homestead,  Pa. 

One  Spring  morning  in  1911,  a  little  girl  with  chestnut-brown  curls 
and  laughing  brown  eyes,  arrived  in  Clarion  from  Homestead,  where  she 
had  been  attending  High  School.  She  liked  the  bright  prospect  at 
C.  S.  N.  S,  so  well  that  she  decided  to  join  the  class  of  1913.  She 
soon  starred  in  Physiology  class  by  telling  the  Professor  that  jello  must 
not  be  cooked.  She  firmly  believes  in  our  class  motto  "  Labor  omnia 
vincit,"  and  therefore  works  very  hard.  When  she  leaves  C.  S.  N.  S. 
she   intends   to  be  a  school  marm   for   a   few  years  at   least.

Raymond  received  his  preparatory  education  at  the  Big  Run  Grammar 
and  High  Schools.  "Hans"  decided  to  further  his  education,  and 
came  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  the  Spring  of  1912.  and  joined  the  class  of 
1913.  He  IS  an  excellent  student  and  ranks  among  the  highest  in  his 
class.  His  favorite  pastime  is  hiding  Supplee  in  the  clothes  press  from 
Bixler.  Raymond  is  undecided  about  his  future  but  we  feel  sure  thai 
he   will    be   successful    in   whatever   profession   he   chooses. 


Mary   Winifred  Atwell.

This  lllllf  red-headed  girl  came  In  the  home  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Alwell 
on  one  of  ihose  cold  March  days  which  we  call  Si.  Palrlck's  Day.  She 
was  born  al  Sugar  Hill,  and  when  small  was  very  fond  of  roaming  over 
Sugar  Hill  and  picking  -Sweel  Williams,"  her  favorlle  flower,  and 
they  were  verv  !carce.  In  the  Winter  when  the  "Sweet  Williams"  were 
all  gone  and  her  heart  was  so  sad.  her  Mother  and  Father  took  her  out 
West,  where  there  would  be  no  more  winter.  Here  she  received  hei 
early  education  in  the  Montesano  school,  but  there  seemed  to  be  some 
attraction  back  al  dear.  old.  sweet.  Sugar  Hill;  so  she  returned  in  the 
spring  of  189?  lo  continue  her  picking  of  'Sweet  Williams."  This  she 
did.  until  one  day  she  and  another  red-headed  girl  from  the  same  place 
slid  into  Clarion  feeling  the  need  of  more  education,  and  are  now 
leaving    to   pick    "Sweet    Williams"    forever. 

Her  favorite  saying  is.  Oh!   Darn  it.  my  rat  won't  slay  on.

Afer  spending  two  years  in  Johnstown  High  School,  this  dear  girlie 
decided  to  change  her  Alma  Maler.  One  stormy  day  In  the  spring  of 
1911.  she  landed  in  Clarion  and  then  joined  the  class  of  1913.  of  which 
she  has  been  a  faithful  member.  Although  she  did  have  a  ragged  Cicero, 
she  persisted  in  wearing  the  feather  on  her  hat.  much  lo  Dr.  Ballenline's 
chagrm.      She     ntends   to  spend  her   future   days   teaching  srhool.

Mabel   Bauchman.   "Baugh." 
Marienvllle,    Pa. 

Y.   W.   C.   A.;    F.   L.   S.;    GIm   Club. 

Some  time  ago  a  dark-eyed  little  girl  was  born  in  the  village  of 
Marienville.  This  maiden,  whom  we  call  "Baugh,"  is  one  of  the  best 
nalured  ones  of  the  class  of  '13.  She  is  one  of  the  three  who  repre- 
sent  the  class  of   '10  of    the    Marienville   High  School,   at   the   C.   S.   N.  S. 

She  IS  a  member  of  the  Y.  W.  C.  A.,  the  F.  L.  S..  and  the  Glee 
Club;    she   has   also   distinguished   herself   by   her    famous   paintings. 

Her  favorite  sport  is  skating.  We  predict  great  success  for  her  chosen 
lite  work,   even   if   it  be  caring   for  "Sweet  William."

•13;    F.    L.  S. 

Turner  B.  Beatty,  commonly  known  as  "Tuck,"  and  to  his  near  friends 
"Beardy,"  was  born  March  19,  1893  A.  D.,  in  the  beautiful  little  city 
of   Scotch    Hill.      At   the   tender   age   of   three   he   emigrated    to  Clarion. 

After  completing  his  common  school  course  he  entered  the  Normal. 
After  attending  Normal  for  a  year,  "Dad"  appointed  him  leader  o( 
the  "Beatty  Gang."  This  aggregation  consisted  of  the  most  ambitious 
students  in  the  school,  at  that  time.  The  classes  which  they  preferred 
were    Athletics,    Fresh-Air,    and    Excitement. 

We  are  glad  to  say  that  Turner  has  reformed  and  the  "Beatty 
Gang  has  dispersed.  1  am  sure  his  many  friends  wish  him  a  very  suc- 
cessful   career    in    h-s    future    life.

He    finished    the    schools    at    Echo    and    came    to    Clarion    in    the 

g   of    |9||    and    joined    the   class   of   '13.      Each    evening   at   7    o'clock

1    wonder    why?      "Junior    Hop."      But    since    that    lime    he    says

Albert  Bentley. 
Corydon,   Pa. 

One  cold  wintry  day  a  baby  boy  was  found  on  the  porch  of  the 
Bentley  home.  He  did  not  appear  to  be  worth  raising,  but  nevertheless 
they  kepi  him.  and  now  he's  known  as  "Uncle  Ben.  "  He  tormented  his 
Mother  for  a  few  years  and  then  began  to  annoy  the  school  marms 
of  the  public  schools.  Desiring  to  continue  his  education,  he  entered 
the  Corydon  High  School  where  he  graduated  in  1911.  In  some  mys- 
terious way.  he  meandered  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  the  fall  of  1911,  and 
being  delighted  with  the  surroundings,  decided  to  stay.  "He  did"  the 
course  in  two  years.  His  chief  hobby  is  Physics,  but  he  thinks  he'll 
enjoy  teaching  better  if  he  has  "Model  Youngsters."  His  favorite 
expression  is  "Let  her  go  'Gallagher'."  We  are  sure  that  he  will  make 
a  success  in   whatever  he   undertakes. 


Mildred  M.  Bole, 
North    'Warren,    Pa. 


Born  and  lived  in  North  Warren,  she  finally  broke  her  bonds  and 
made  her  way  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  the  spring  of  1910.  She  deserted  the 
class  of  1912,  in  order  to  honor  the  '13's.  She  is  a  member  of  the 
'^■.  W.  C.  A.  and  Franklin  Literary  Society.  Early  in  the  year,  she 
acquired  the  habit  of  sitting  on  the  window-seal,  and  later  developed 
a  strong  affinity  for  the  bell-lower.  Mildred  always  lets  her  light  so 
shine  that  others  may  see  it.  It  has  even  been  seen  at  2  o'clock  in  the 
morning.  After  graduating,  she  intends  to  leach,  but  for  a  short  lime 
only,  for  we  think  she  has  another  prospect  in  view.  May  she  have 
great   success. 


Martha  Bovaird,  "Mart,' 
Brockwayville,   Pa. 


Mart  received  her  education  at  the  sweel  town  of  Sugar  Hill.  After 
receiving  all  the  instruction  that  that  institution  and  the  natives  could 
imparl,  she  entered  Brockwayville  High.  She  was  graduated  from  here 
in  the  Spring  of  1911  and  in  the  Fall  of  1911  arrived  at  ihis  grind, 
being  only  two  weeks  late.  Since  then  her  chief  occupation  has  been 
collecting  pieces  of  blackberry  pie  and  drying  them  under  the  radiator. 
She  expects  to  donate  them  to  her  friends  as  souvenirs  of  C.  S.  N.  S. 
Another  of  her  peculiarities  is  catching  mice.  At  the  mere  mention  of 
them  she  mounts  our  make-believe  dresser  and  proceeds  to  demolish 
the  animals.  She  has  one  great  quality,  brightness,  due  to  the  color  of 
her  hair.

Flossie  M.  Braden, 
Cooksburg.  Pa. 

Long  years  ago  (^),  Flossie  arrived  at  Cooksburg  and  since  ihen 
no  other  place  is  worthy  of  mention.  Barney"  came  lo  C.  S.  N.  S.  in 
1911  and  indeed  proved  faithful  to  the  class  of  '13.  She  has  a  remark- 
able talent  for  speaking  and  acting.  Besides  taking  part  in  the  Middle 
^ear  Class  Play,  she  has  been  an  active  member  of  the  B.  L.  S.,  also 
an    ardent    advocate  of   Anti-Woman    Suffrage    Movement. 

She  IS  very  brilliant — in  Physics — but  was  never  known  to  go  skip- 
ping{^).  In  fact,  she  is  a  model  child.  "Barney"  could  not  thrive 
on  '  Dad"  Noll's  "eats,"  so  she  found  a  substitute,  "Campbell's"  Pork 
and   Beans. 

She  has  chosen  leaching  as  her  life's  work  but  we  are  in  doubt  as  to 
how  long  she  will   teach — especially   if  she   remains   in   Forest  Co. 


Clar.a   J.    Brady, 
Scotch   Hill,    Pa. 


This,    our    nut   brown    maiden,    was    born    in    the    prosperous    and    enter-

From    the    water-fall    we    named    her 
Minnehaha,    Laughing    'Water. 
Brady's    early    education    was    absorbed    from    the    mosses    of    Scotch 
Hill    Academy.      Since   attending   C.   S.   N.  S.   she  has  shone   as   a   star    in 
her    classes    especially     in     German.      We    are    proud    that    our    Clara     is 
a     prominent     member     of     the     Mandolin     Club.      She    is    also    an     artist 
(she    draws    the    boys).      But — what    does    Clara    not    do?      As    a    kinder- 
garten   teacher    she    has    made    her    mark.

Leone   Edythe   Broadhead.  "Leonee." 
New   Caslle,    Pa. 

Leone  Edythe  Broadhead  entered  the  Senior  Class  of  C.  S.  N.  S. 
m  the  Fall  of  1912.  after  taking  the  Junior-Middle  Exams,  at  Slippery 
Rock  Normal,  in  the  Spring  of  1912.  She  has  entered  heartily  into  all 
the  activities  of  school  life,  and  she  is  a  good  student,  being  broad- 
minded,  as  her  name  suggests.  Leone  is  tall,  fair,  and  dignified  but 
at  the  proper  times  she  throws  off  her  dignity,  and  is  just  a  jolly  good 
school-mate.  Before  entering  Normal,  she  taught  for  two  years  in  the 
New  Castle  Public  Schools  after  having  been  graduated  from  the  High 
School   of   that   place.

especially  among  the  girls,  because  he  ne\er  goes  with  the  same  girl

Burns'  Highland  sweetheart  had  not  brighter  eyes  or  merrier  smile  than 
our  own  Clarion  County  Mary.  Her  chief  ailment  has  been  home- 
sickness,    pining     for     "Bill."      After     trying     skipping     with     C ,     and 

finding  no  relief  she  sought  refuge  in  her  aunt's  home,  where  she 
practices  the  culinary  art  to  her  heart's  content.  For  the  benefit  of 
prospective  suitors,  we  reveal  the  secret  that  her  favorite  dish  is  "baked 
beans  and  country  ham."  From  chance  remarks,  we  learn  that  hrr 
favorite  studies  are  German  and  Physics  (?).  and  the  diversion  she 
longs  for  is  a  country  school,  where  she  can  have  a  daily  outing  with

She  is  anolher  representative!  of  the  Campbell  family  in  the  Class  of 
1913,  but  bears  no  relationship  to  the  preceding  ones.  Pearle  was  gradu- 
ated from  the  Clarion  H.gh  School  in  the  class  of  1911,  and  decided 
to  continue  her  education  by  entering  the  Class  of  1913.  She  is  longing

Charles  D.  Carrier,  "Chuck," 
Summerville,    Pa. 

Varsity  Baseball  12,  13;  Varsity  Football;  Class  Basket  Ball  '12; 
F.    L.    S. 

Chas.,  better  known  as  '  Chuck,"  first  began  his  activities  in  the  middle 
90's,  in  Summerville,  Pa.  Chuck  attended  school  at  Summerville,  but 
finally  joined  the  '13's  in  the  beginning  of  their  Junior  year.  Chuck 
IS  a  very  enthusiastic  and  energetic  baseball  player.  He  is  also  a  very 
ardent  autoist.  and  his  favorite  themes  for  conversation  are  automobiling 
and    girls     (especially    Chuck's    Girl). 

Chas.  IS  undecided  in  what  he  will  engage  when  he  leaves  school  but 
is  thinking  seriously  of  engaging  (?)  in  the  Banking  Business.  How- 
ever, no  matter  what  he  undertakes,  we  feel  sure  of  his  success,  and 
the   best   wishes  of    his   many    friends   go   with   him. 


Myra  Carrier. 

Summerville,    Pa. 

She's  not  as  demure  as  she  looks. 

In  the  Fall  of  1910  Myra's  career  began  in  the  Normal  as  a  Junior 
Myra  liked  to  visit  home  once  in  every  two  weeks;    we  wonder  why    (>) 

Myra  is  very  industrious,  and  is  greatly  interested  in  Cicero  as  is 
shown  in  her  sleepmg  hours,  when  she  cries,  "Oh,  Ye  Immortal  Gods, 
where   on   earth  are  we?  " 

A  specialty  of  Myra's  was  entertaining  her  friends  in  the  clothes- 
press  after  ten  o'clock.  Of  course  she  always  served  refreshments,  loo. 
Her  plans  for  the  future  are  rather  unsettled  but  we  know  if  she  gets 
along  as  well  m  years  to  come  as  she  has  in  years  past,  she  will  find 
life's   pathway   smooth. 


Dessie    F.   Chamberlin, 
Richardsville,    Pa. 

"A  wind  came  up  out  of  the  sea. 
And  said,  'Oh  mists,  make  room  for  me.'  " 
Jefferson  County  may  well  be  proud  of  its  little  representative  in 
the  person  of  "Des"  whose  height  is  5  ft.  With  her  cheerful  disposi- 
tion she  scatters  sunshine  wherever  she  is  mingled  among  her  class- 
mates. She  was  undecided  what  to  do  for  some  lime,  and  finally  de- 
cided to  come  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  and  join  the  class  of  '13  where  she  has 
maintained  a  good  standing  in  social  life.  She  is  a  member  of  the  "Y" 
choir,  and  also  of  the  Glee  Club.  One  of  her  daily  habits,  formed 
at  C.  S.  N..  is  being  late  for  breakfast.  Wake  up  Des,  heed  the 
rising   bell,   and    this   habit   shall    readily    be    overcome. 


Zelma  Chamberlin.  "Trix," 
Richardsville.    Pa. 


One  of  the  members  of  the  class  of  1913  at  C.  S.  N.  S.  is  "Trix." 
A  fine  fall  day  in  the  90's.  she  made  her  appearance  at  Richardsville 
with  (he  falling  of  the  leaves.  After  graduating  from  the  grammar 
school,  she  decided  to  come  to  Clarion  Normal  and  join  the  '13's,  of 
which  she  is  a  very  faithful  member.  She  is  also  a  member  of  the 
Glee    Club. 

Though  modest  and  digpified  she  never  refuses  *o  share  in  a  feast 
where  there  are  chances  of  something  to  eat.  Her  favorite  study  is 
Public  Speaking  and  "Trix"  says  that  we  may  expect  to  meet  her  as 
a    noted    suffragette    in    a    short    lime    after    her    graduation. 

Richardsville    is    her    home    town. 

Sleeping  her   recreation. 

Her    favorite    colors    are    green    and    brown, 

And  boys  her  abomination.

Strattonville,    Pa. 

B.  L.  S.;    '  Y"  Choir;    Glee  Club;    Middle  Year   Class  Play. 
This    Scotch    Lassie    was    born    at    Crawford    town,    Jefferson    County, 
in    the   *90's,   but   Clarion   County    now   claims   her    as   one   of    its   amiable 
inhabitants. 

After  graduating  from  a  Grammar  School,  she  decided  lo  advance 
her  education  to  a  higher  standard  and  came  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  to  join  the 
JIass    of    '13. 

Peggy"  IS  of  a  modest  and  kind  disposition  and  well  loved  by  all 
her  class-mates.  She  is  fond  of  study,  especially  Physics,  but  her  fu- 
ture, for  a  short  time  at  least,  shall  be  devoted  lo  the  practical  teach- 
ing of  the  subjects  completed  here,  and  later  in  the  line  of  Domestic 
Science   or    House-keeping. 

"Her   modest  looks  a  cottage   might   adorn. 
Sweet  as  a  primrose  peeps  beneath  the  thorn."

Anceline   Crowley,   "Ang." 
Eldred.    Pa. 

One  morning  in  tne  beautiful  month  of  June,  the  birds  were  sing- 
ing merrily  and  everything  was  cheerful  around  the  Crowley  home, 
when  suddenly  a  faint  cry  was  heard.  Upon  investigation  it  was  found 
to  be  our  Ang. 

Ang  was  sent  to  school  when  very  young.  She  attended  the  Port 
Allegany  H.  S.,  and  from  there  came  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  Jan.,  1910. 
She  is  a  brilliant  student,  her  capacity  for  learning  is  marvelous.  Ang 
is  w.lty  and  wise  and  delights  in  cracking  jokes,  and  geting  other  people's 
goats.  Her  chief  pastime  is  talking  Deutsch  and  committing  such  phrases 
as   -Sie   ist  ein   Teufel." 

For  some  time  during  her  slay  in  C.  S.  N.  S.  her  attractions  were 
letters  but  now  we  notice  that  a  window  seat  in  the  parlor  seems  to  be 
her  hobby.  Nothing  frightens  Ang  even  to  seeing  a  '  Ghost"  every  night, 
which  never  fails  to  appear.  Even  in  her  sleep  Ang  slill  insists  she  sees 
the    "Ghost." 

Success  will  surely  crown  her  efforts  and  our  heartiest  wishes  for  a 
*  howling   success"    go   with  Ang.

..Here  is  a  brown  eyed  girl  who  attended  the  Grammar  School  at  Lu- 
cinda for  a  few  years  and  being  very  successful  there  decided  to  join  the 
class  of  '13  at  C.  S.  N.  S.  She  is  industrious  in  the  class  room  as  well 
^s  during  study  hour  except  when  she  sees  a  mouse.  Her  spare  moments 
are  spent  in  making  candy  particularly  sea-foam  and  fudge.  She  divides 
this  with  her  class-mates  as  classes  are  changing.  She  always  says; 
■  How  1  like  Phvsics,  1  know  when  Dad  is  going  to  call  on  me,  he  looks 
at  me,  and  smiles,  then  1  know  it's  my  turn."  'Oh!  how  1  got  ./,  in  the

Claringlon,  Pa.,  and  attended  the  Sigel  High  School.  In  1910, 
ned    the   '13   army   of    Wisdom   Seekers.      Twila   is   an   active   mem-

is  one  of  the  lucky  ones  who  spend  their  spare  moments  on  the

ch  time  watching  Stevens  Hall. 

favorite  expression  is  either,  "Oh!  Gee,  I'm  so  fat,"  or  "My!  but 
ingry."      Although  Twila   is   very   glad   lo  graduate,   we   know,    from

She  finished  the  Public  School  course  and  entered  the  Warren  High 
School  from  which  she  graduated  in  1911.  Grace,  being  am- 
bitious, made  her  acquaintance  with  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  191  1  as  a  member 
of    the   class  of    1913. 

Since  she  is  a  "privileged  character,  "  she  roams  around  the  halls  dur- 
ing study  hour,  and  one  thing  which  she  boasts  of  is,  that  she  never 
asks   permission. 

Her  chief  desire  now  Is  to  become  a  professional  school  teacher  unless 
(he  "bug-house"  reclaims  her  and  we  predict  great  success  for  her  along 
that    line. 


Delbert  Decker.  "Debbi* 
Whig  Hill,  Pa. 


In  the  midst  of  Forest  County  in  the  latter  part  of  the  nineteenth 
century  there  appeared  a  little  boy  named  Delbert  Decker.  He  grew 
up  in  the  forest,  and  became  a  rugged  and  healthy  young  man.  After 
attending  High  School,  and  graduating,  he  entered  C.  S.  N.  S.,  where  he 
soon  became  very  popular,  especially  among  the  girls. 

After  he  was  in  school  awhile,  Delbert  resolutely  determined  to  enter 
the  prize-fighting  circle.  He  met  with  success  but,  at  last  being  knocked 
out  by  Fitzsimmons.  he  resolved  never  lo  lake  up  that  line  of  work  again. 
He  possesses  some  talent  both  as  an  artist  and  poet,  and  he  may  make  one 
of  these  his  life's  work. 


Clara  De  Smet, 
Marienville,  Pa. 

Born  with  the  roses  in  the  month  of  June  was  our  brown  eyed  Clara 
in  Marienville.  She  is  one  of  the  three  who  represent  the  class  of  1910 
of  M.  H.  S.  at  C.  S.  N.  She  is  a  member  of  the  F.  L.  S..  Glee  Club 
and  Y.  W.  C.  A.  Her  favorite  song  at  Glee  Club  practice  is  "Speaky. 
Spiky,  Spoky,"  or  "Dippy.  Deippy.  Doppy.  *  She  has  always  been  a 
loyal  member  of  her  class  and  by  her  cheerful  disposition  scatters  sun- 
shine wherever  she  goes.  It  is  needless  to  say  that  her  influence  for  good 
will  leave  a  lasting  impression  upon  her  classmates.  We  have  no  fears 
for   her   future   life  and  success. 


Parma  Dixon 
New  Bethlehem.  Pa. 
F.  L.  S.;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

One  cold  winter's  day  our  httle  Parma  arrived  at  the  Dixon  home  near 
Curllsville,  Pa.  .After  graduating  from  Porter  Township  High  School, 
she  came  to  Clarion  in  the  Spring  of  1911,  to  satisfy  her  thirst  for  wis- 
dom. Parma  is  very  fond  of  Latin,  and  always  responds  promptly  when 
Jacky   calls   on   "Shield." 

.Although  she  and  Geolz  are  continually  fighting  to  see  who  shall  wear 
Jeff's  diamond,  her  fa\orite  expression  is  "Hooray.      Who?    Ray.'* 

The  greatest  trial  of  her  life  is  that  she  is  so  small  despite  the  assurance 
of  her  friends  that  the  best  goods  are  always  done  up  in  small  packages. 
She  is  greatly  loved  by  children  and  we  can  predict  success  for  her  in 
teaching,   which   profession    she    intends   to   follow — for   awhile   at   least. 


Ruth  E.  Douchertv,  "Our  Baby" 

Fisher,    Pa. 

"A   Maiden   never   bold 
Of   spirit  so  still   and  so  quiet." 
All    must   be   hushed   and   still    if  you   wish    to   hear   what    Ruth   has   to 
say  in  the  class-room  and  of  course  everything  she  says  is  worth  hearing. 
Her  one  ambition  is  to  be  a  kindergarten  teacher,  although  we  have  heard 
her  say.  "Oh!    I  expect  to  study  Art  and   Music — "     Whatever  she  does 
she  has  the  very  best  wishes  of  the  class  of   1913   for  her   future  success. 
Her  motto: — "1  will  always  be  true  to  the  White  and  the  Blue." 


Florence  Dunham.  "FIuss" 
Bradford,  Pa. 

F.  L.  S.;  Middle  Year  Class  Play;  Y.  W.  C.  A.  Cabinet;  Glee 
Club;    Fat's  Girl. 

She  has  occupied  the  last  position  for  three  years  with  slight  inter- 
missions    No  matter  what  happens,  everything  always  turns  out  all  right. 

Say,  "Stay  close  to  me,  Florence,"  and  see  what  she  says  to  you.  We 
can  only   say   that   he   stuck  close. 

Florence,  for  the  last  live  terms,  has  washed  dishes  at  the  '"Y"  re- 
ceptions, but  the  sixth  term  she  absolutely  refused  to  wash  any  more  dish- 
es.     Do   you   suppose   that   Fat's  absence  was  the  reason? 

Speaking  seriously  "Fluss"  is  a  good  all  round  girl.  She  is  conscien- 
tious and  trustworthy  and  everyone  has  a  good  word  for  her.

19  years  ago.  He  first  appeared  al  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  the  Winter  Term 
of    191  I,  and  in  a  short   lime  became  known   lo  all   as  'Bulligan." 

Later  he  became  much  inlciesled  in  "Pearles."  But  in  the  Fall  Term 
of  1913  he  changed  his  interest  lo  the  wcalher  conditions,  especially

"Bulligan's"  favorite  song  while  on  athletic  trips  is.  '1  love  my  wifey 
all  the  time,  but  1  should  have  stayed  al  home."  Ills  only  bad  habit  is 
loafing  in  Navarre  Hall. 

His  many  friends  and  acnuainlances  are  sure  thai  he  will  make  his 
mark  a  good  one  in  anything  he  should  decide  to  lake  up  after  he  gradu-

One  beautiful  April  day  in  the  town  of  Shippenville.  Pa.,  a  dear  blue

The  slars  in  the  dipper  had  a  quarrel,  and  in  the  middle  of  the  con- 
flict a  piece  was  knocked  from  the  handle.  This  little  light  fell  rapidly 
until  one  bright  June  day  it  landed  in  Kittanning.  and  proved  to  be  the 
one  we  know  as  Marv.  She  received  her  earlv  education  in  the  Graded 
School  at  Killanning  and  later  graduated  from  the  High  School  there. 
•After  gradualion  she  taught  one  term,  but  when  the  name  of  Clarion 
Normal  reached  her  ears,  she  at  once  decided  to  )oin  its  happy  band. 
She  came  in  the  Spring  of  1911  and  look  Middle-Junior.  Then  she 
taught  one  year  but  came  back  in  the  Autumn  of  1912  to  cast  her 
lot  with  the  class  of  1913.  Mary's  specialty  is  "making  cases"  for  her 
friends.  Her  quiet  dignity  makes  friends  for  her  wherever  she  goes. 
\X'e  have  no  doubt  of  her  success  as  a  teacher,  and  we  are  sure  she  will 
have    at    least   one    pupil.

natured  maiden  came  to  brighten  the  home  of  Fish's  near  Lawsonham. 
In  her  early  years,  she  spent  her  lime  in  going  to  the  District  School. 
Later  she  attended  Pleasant  Hill  High  School  for  one  year  and  then 
decided  to  try  teaching.  She  taught  two  successive  years  in  the  Rural 
Schools  near  her  home.  She  then  thought  it  wise  lo  attend  Normal  and 
entered  the  class  of  1913  in  the  Spring  of  1911  and  has  been  very  suc-

U'hich  one? — Why,  the  one  who  always  has  her  toes  turned  in  and 
isn't  with  Stove.  Jid  is  desperately  in  love  with — ?  Well,  we  hale  to

"Oh,  do  you  think  so?"  Do  you  know  what  happened  them? — Well, 
we  leave  it  to  your  imagination. 

Jid's  favorite  song  used  lo  be  "Oh  you  Blondy"  and  we  know  that  his 
is  "Bring  back  my  Jid   lo  me." 

Jid  has  a  great  deal  of  musical  lalenl  both  in  instrumental  and  vocal 
music,  and  it  shows  to  good  advantage  when  a  bunch  is  gathered  together

Which  one? — Why.  don't  you  know,  the  one  that  is  always  with 
'Stove."  June  says.  "I  wouldn't  wear  one  of  those  fake  sparklers  be- 
cause just  think  what  people  would  say."  She  must  be  thinking  pretty 
seriously. 

June  spends  most  of  her  time  during  vacation  going  to  the  Post  Office. 
Can  anyone  tell  the  reason?  We  never  knew,  ourselves.  When  you 
hear  June  say.  "You  don't  mean  it.  girls?  "  you  know  she  has  been 
shocked,  and  that  happens  pretty  frequently,  it  seems. 

June  never  takes  any  interest  in  Society.  Receptions,  etc..  any  more. 
Jid  says  that  she  has  gotten  to  the  stage  where  she  would  rather  sit  at  home. 
Nevertheless  she  is  a  mighty  line  girl  and  all  of  us  have  a  warm  spot  in 
our    hearts    for    June — especially   Stove. 


Laura  Emily  Fitzsimmons, 
Baxter,  Pa. 

One  bright  day  in  June.  Laura  Emily  Fitzsimmons  came  to  live  in  a 
liome  near  Baxter.  She  was  sent  to  the  Coder  school  to  receive  her  pre- 
paratory education.  After  completing  the  work  of  this  school,  she  came 
to  Clarion  lo  prepare  for  teaching  She  has  never  been  known  to  break 
a  rule  except  to  go  skipping  once  or  twice  and  to  do  Pyrography  work 
after  ten  o'clock.  She  has  time  for  everything  and  believes  in  getting 
each  day  s  lessons  so  she  will  not  have  to  cram  for  examinations.  Latin 
IS  the  only  thing  in  school  she  does  not  like,  but  her  chief  studies  are 
Manual  Training  and  Spoonology.

Clarion.  Pa. 

Basket  Ball;    Middler  and  Senior;    M.ddler  Play;   Glee  Club;    B.  L.  S. 

Romy  is  thinking  seriously  of  joining  the  "Gamma  Delta  "  fraternity — 
being  led  gently  onward  by  the  light  from  a  particular  head  of  red  hair. 
Romy  is  always  in  it  knee  deep  at  parlies  where  we  need  the  ice  broken. 
When  she  lands  on  the  piano  with  such  skillfully  aimed  blows,  she  never 
fails  to  break  the  ice   for   use. 

Ever  since  Romy's  '  Epsilon  Psi"  Jew  friend  was  here,  she  has  had  a 
fondness  for  mustaches.  With  all  this.  Romy  is  a  mighty  nice,  all 
around  girl  (usually  around.)  She  hits  it  right  when  she  says.  "I'm 
Mamma's  darling  and  Papa's  jov."  We'll  all  admit  that  we're  awfully 
proud  of   her.

Allho'  Alice  has  many  nicknames  such  as  "Imogene"  and  "Rudolf*

WtLLts  Frill 
Lickingville.  Pa. 


During  the  shortest  month  of  the  year  1894,  a  ten  pound  boy  came  lo 
the  Frill  home  in  Clarion  Co.  After  he  had  grown  to  be  one  of  the 
largest  bovs  in  the  Public  Schools  of  Lickingville.  he  wandered  lo  C.  S. 
N.  S.  during  the  Spring  term  of  1911.  Willis  is  known  by  all  the 
students  as  a  very  quiet,  industrious  boy.  He  always  roomed  alone,  and 
the  girls  were  always  delighted  when  he  would  visit  the  Dining  Hall. 
His  principal  features  are  his  funny  sayings  and  smiling  attitude  toward 
all.  He  was  ne- er  known  to  converse  with  the  girls_  and  was  never 
seen  in  the  Reception  Hall.  However,  we  know  that  after  Willis  begins 
leaching    in    the   District    Schools,    his   quiet    ways   will    soon    vanish. 


Irene  Furma^ 
Slratlonville.   Pa 


Irene  laid  the  foundation  for  her  eventful  career  at  Straltonville  High 
School.  Then  v\'ilh  the  good  judgment  so  characteristic  of  her.  she  de- 
cided to  entrust  the  development  of  her  pedagogical  talent  at  C.  S.  N.  S. 
It  is  very  evident  that  '  Deutsch"  is  her  favorite  subject  and  she.  herself 
admits    that    her    favorite    pastime   is   entertaining. 

Since  early  childhood.   Irene  has  manifested  great  executive  ability,  and 
hopes    to    display    the    same    in    a    schoolroom    on    the    Pacific   coast.      The 
principal    tho't   upon   her   mind    is.   'Which   one   shall    I    take   with   me^" 
I   wend   my   quiet   way   alone. 

And   not   a   pleasure   can    I   see 
In   any  stolen   strolls  or   talks 

Of    those    much    xaunled    Sunday    walks. 
The  companion   life  for  me.

Afer  one  year  she  went  to  Jamestown,  N.  Y.,  where  she  spent  one  year 
in   the   High   School. 

After  wandering  about  thus  in  the  great  world,  she  saw  a  sign  board 
for  C.  S.  N.  S.,  and  she  wisely  decided  lo  travel  in  the  direction  indicated 
When  her  journey  was  completed  she  found  herself  a  member  of  the 
'13's.  She  is  a  prominent  member  of  the  Mandolin  Club  and  a  Cham- 
pion Basket  Ball  Player.  Her  favorite  pastime  is  strolling  accompanied 
by  her  '  Fidus  .Achates."  She  is  a  faithful  student  and  therefore  has  lime 
to  do  a  little  extra  work,  such  as  helping  the  hall  teacher  earn  her  money. 
When  she  completes  her  course,  she  expects  to  become  a  sedate  teacher, 
at   least   for   awhile.

Acnes  Croner, 
Lickingville,  Pa. 

Some  years  ago  there  arrived  upon  the  scene  at  Lickingville  a  very 
small  girl,  who  decided  to  remain  at  the  Groner  home.  Her  parents  con- 
tended with  her  for  a  few  years,  and  then  sent  her  to  the  Washington 
Grammar  School  where  she  made  great  progress.  In  the  Spring  of  1911 
she  arrived  at  Clarion  Normal.  Although  she  joined  no  class  that 
term,  she  returned  in  the  Fall  to  join  the  'I3's.  of  whom  she  has  been 
a  faithful  member,  always  going  to  classes  and  always  studying  except 
when  she  feels  like  '  laughing."  On  her  way  to  Physic,  she  says  'I'm 
scared  because  Dad  points  at  me  so  unexpectedly  and  one  day  he  said 
'Yum,  Yum.'  "  Agnes  expects  to  teach  for  at  I

the  greater  part  of  her  vacations  there.  She  is  commonly  known  here  by 
her  favorite  expression  "Hello  Kids,  what  are  you  doing?"  Since  she  has

Margaret  Virginia  Guild. 
Tilusville,  Pa. 

Miss    Margaret    Virginia    Guild    was    born    and    reared    near   Tilusvill( 
Pa.     She    took    the   first    two   years   of    her    Normal    Course   at    Edinbor< 
but  on  account  of  the  severe  cold  emigrated  southward  as  far   as  Clarioi 
where    she    is    specializing    in    (Physics).      Margaret    is   a    real    sweet    gir 
studious  and  lovable.     She  is  a  militant  suffragist  and   belongs  to  the  ani 
bluff     association.      She     is    a     very     competent     architect,     having    already 
planned    many    wonderful    castles    (air).      She    contemplates,    for    the    next 
two    years,    inslrucliong    the    "\'oung    ideas    how    to    shoot."      Then    as    she 
will    have  her  diploma,   she   is   going   to  become  so   proficient   in    (Physics) 
thai   in    1920,   she  will   without  doubt,    be    fully   prepared     as  an    instructor 
in   Physics,   to   be  enrolled   as   a   member   of   the   faculty   of  C.   S.    N.   S., 
Wellesley,    Vassar    or     Bryn     Mawr.      Surely     fate    has    affirmed    her    as 
"teacher."     N.    B.     We  are  all   sure   she  will   teach  some   "one," 


Helena  Guthrie,  "Beany," 
Reynoidsburg,  Pa. 

Helena,  but  belter  known  as  "Beany,"  landed  in  Summerville  one 
stormy  morning  in  March  but  soon  took  her  departure  to  Reynoldsville. 
She  received  her  early  education  in  that  place,  bul  wishing  a  broader  view 
of  the  world,  came  to  Clarion  and  joined  the  'I3's. 

She  IS  a  well  known  athlete;  Girls'  Basket  Ball  Captain;  famous 
Basket  Ball  guard;  Leader  of  Gym  Class,  and  in  short  '  Jack-of-all- 
Irades."  She  is  fond  of  books,  mainly  for  the  reason  that  she  loves  to 
ponder  over  her  Page(s)  al  her  own  sweet  will.  For  tricks,  beat  'Beany," 
and  you'll  hurry.  Her  favorite  expression  is  "By  Toolner."  Her  desire 
now  is  to  get  fat;  but  happen  her  what  may.  she  will  certainly  be  sure 
of  a  good  "Undertaking."

tion, graduating  from  the  High  School  with  honors  in  the  class  of  1912. 
She  came  lo  Clarion  in  lime  to  take  Stale  Board,  passed  through  that 
ordeal  and  returned  as  an  efficient  member  of  the  class  of  1913.  She 
is  a  good  student,  but  is  always  ready  for  fun.  She  has  a  cheery  smile 
and  a  kind  word  for  everyone.  Edith  is  interested  in  art  and  is  quite 
talented  along  that  line.  Her  favorite  song  is  "The  Ideal  of  My 
Dreams"  (Ben).  Her  love  for  children  prophesies  for  her  great  success 
as  a  teacher.      Edith  likes  to  spend  her  spare  time  studying  "Brown"  ing.

Johnie's  redeeming  feature  is  her  excellent  good  humor.  Only  "nee

Mable  Claire  Hepler.  "Hep," 
New  Bethlehem.  Pa. 


One  October,  when  the  chestnuts  were  good  enough  to  eat,  Mabel 
Claire  came  to  New  Bethlehem.  Here  she  remamed  until  she  obtained 
valuable  knowledge  from  the  N.  B.  High  School.  Later  she  went  to  Irv- 
ing where  she  might  have  won  fame  as  a  music  pupil,  but  Clarion  ap- 
pealed to  her  more  because  of  the  surroundings— people  such  as  Maheys 
and  jeans,  and  the  chances  of  losing  her  life  from  poisoning,  etc.  Geol- 
ogy is  her  favorite  study  because  it  deals  with  "Marshes."  Mable  is  of 
an  uncertain  disposition  never  knowing  what  she  wants  until  she  does 
it.  but  bet  on  "Hep"  to  make  up  her  mind  in  a  hurry  when  she  gets  a  bid 
to  a  "feed.  "  We  wonder  why  "everything  makes  her  tired,"  and  why 
she  always  says  '  Well,  that's  a  woman's  privilege."  but  we  wish  for  her 
the  greatest  succces  in  her  life  work  whether  it  be  home-making  or   teach-

•Third   Floor   Disturber   from  No.  98." 
Clarion    Normal   was   much   enriched  by   the   arrival   of   Lorraine   on    the 
sixth    of    May,    Nineteen    Twelve.      She    completed    Middle-Junior    in    hve 
weeks,  after  finishing  her  H.  S.  course  at  Big  Run.      We  scarcely  learned 
to  know  her   in   the   five   weeks,   but   felt   sure   she   was  a  brilliant   new   star 
in     our     constellation,     and    have    since     had     her     brilliancy     confirm    our 
belief.     She  graced   the  sec'y  chair  of  the   Bancroft   Literary  Society   dur- 
ing    the     winter     term.        Her     voice     is     heard     caroling     in     the     Glee 
Club.         Her     weakest     point     is     a     desire     for     variety.         She     firmly 
believes      that       *\'ariety      is      the      spice      of      life."        She      follows      the 
maxim   "Larly    to   bed   and  early   to   rise,   makes   a   man    healthy,     wealthy. 
and   wise."   but   her   borrowed   alarm   clock  has  to  help   her  out   in   this. 
Her  motto  is  "  Never  do  to-day  what  you  can  put  off  'till   to-morrow." 
She  is  witty  and   lovable  and  we  can  predict   for  her  the  brightest  and 
most   successful    future.

William  Hugcler.  '  Goop,"  "Bill," 
Millstone,  Pa. 

William  Huggler.  better  known  as  "Bill"  was  first  heard  in  the 
backwoods  of  Elk  Co.  He  received  his  early  education  in  the  Public 
Schools  of  Arroyo.  Being  a  boy  of  high  ideals,  he  decided  lo  further 
his  education  at  C.  S.  N.  S.  So  in  the  Spring  of  1911  "Bill"  planted 
his  pedal  extremities  on  the  Campus.  Bill  soon  made  a  "Hit"  among  the 
boys  on  account  of  his  gentle  disposition;  and  the  girls  soon  fell  into 
"Bill's"  winning  ways.  He  set  his  "cap"  for  a  blonde  Belle  (Lulu), 
and  now   he  smiles  every   lime  he  goes  to   Navarre   Hall. 

His  Spring  term  mollo:  "Base  Ball  games  at  home  are  the  best  days 
for  Bolany  specimens.  "  'Bill's"  favorite  expression:  "  1  am  Joe  Wood 
(would)    Pitch,"   or    "Johnny    Spil    'em    over." 


Mabel  Janet  Jefferson. 
Williamsporl,   Pa. 

Jeff  first  began  lo  talk  fourteen  years  ago  in  Portland  Mills,  and  Lo! 
she  is  talking  yet.  She  received  her  early  education  at  Lolela  where  she 
displayed  great  ability  as  a  student.  When  ihirleen  years  old,  she  boarded 
the  train  for  Clarion  where  she  entered  the  Normal  as  a  wee  lonely 
Junior.  Jeff  is  especially  popular  in  Navarre  when  there  are  difficult 
essays  to  write  or  debate  briefs  lo  be  organized  and  this  popularity  some- 
times extends  to  Stevens.  Jeff  cheers  many  a  homesick  girl  with  her  jolly 
talks,  and  her  advice  to  them  is  "walk  at  least  one  mile  a  day  for 
health  and  good  humor,  but  avoid  school  houses  where  there  are  gentle- 
men teachers."  She  is  an  ardent  admirer  of  the  mirror,  which  no  doubt 
accounts    for   her    frequent   tardiness   in    the  dining-room. 

The  Faculty  chides  and  the  Young  men  stare,  but  Jeff  talks  on  forever.

Not  more  than  a  half  century  ago  this  genius  came  to  the  city  of 
Anita,  .^fler  attencJing  the  Public  Schools  of  Anita  and  one  year 
of  High  School,  he  decided  to  come  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  and  join  the  class 
of  "13.  'Jack"  or  the  "Big  Swede"  as  he  is  commonly  known,  is  a 
great  friend  to  the  ladies.  Jack  was  a  member  of  the  strong  Baseball 
Team  of  1912.  He  being  the  catcher  and  one  of  the  best  hitters  on  the 
team.  What  Jack  intends  to  do.  we  can  not  say.  But  we  are  sure  it 
will    relate    to    the    '  News    Paper    Business."

sed  to  be  O.   K.  with  Ruth,  but  strange  to  say,  it  isn't  any  more. 

"Muz"  can't  stand  the  strenuous  life  of  Clarion,  so  she  walks  lo  the

But  with  all  her  faults  we  love  her  slill.

Arabel  Keck, 
Knox,  Pa, 


Es  war  einmal"  an  infant  angel  trailing  rosy  clouds  about  her,  who 
decided  on  a  time  to  descend  into  this  vale  of  tears.  Thus  it  came  about 
thai  one  Fall  day — Sept.  21,  to  be  exaci,  our  wee  cherub  slid  down  on  a 
sunbeam    landing  safely    at   the   Kesk   home   in    Knox. 

Our  angel  child  had  lost  her  wings,  acquired  a  dismal  howl,  and 
otherwise    extinguished    herself. 

,As  this  chilcj  grew  she  was  christened  Arabel  (Arrie).  Three  years 
ago  she  was  seni  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  so  that  the  brilliancy  of  her  menial 
fireworks  could   better   be  seen   from   the   heights  of   Normal   hill. 

"Arrie"  is  the  soul  of  punctuality  (?).  She  is  loved  by  all  and  we 
will  watch  her  progress  with  inlcresi,  for  she  will  eventually  land  in 
her  proper  place  among  those  innumerable  few.  who  live  again  in  minds, 
made    belter    by    her    presence.

and  then  in  ^'oungstown.  Later  she  came  to  Corsica.  Pa.,  her  present 
location.  We  do  hope  she  will  never  go  back  lo  ^'oungstown  for  any 
other  purpose  except  to  visit  old  friends.  We  are  beginning  to  fear,  but 
hope  Rev.  Kerns  will  not  be  so  stern  as  to  cause  anything  like  that. 
But  we  all  know  Mane  is  determined  and  means  lo  carry  out  all  plans, 
come  what  may,  and  live  in  happinca  all  her  life.  We  haven't  said  any- 
thing about  Marie's  school  life,  you  know  the  most  important  had  to  be 
told  first.  She  graduated  from  Corsica  High  School  in  1911.  Then  she 
came  lo  Clarion  Normal  where  she  took  Junior  and  Middle  in  one  year; 
and  now,  while  she  is  thankful  for  the  work  she  has  accomplished,  she 
does  hate  lo  leave  Clarion — the  place  in  which  she  has  found  so  much

Mac  IS  the  kind  of  a  fellow  you  sometimes  read  about,  but  seldom  meet. 
He  has  brains,  and  his  heart  is  in  the  right  place.  He  has  quite  a  love 
for  Science.  When  but  a  mere  child  he  held  a  puppy  on  a  hot  stove 
"to  study  the  effect  of  the  shock."  He  has  performed  countless  other  ex 
penments  on  living  animals,  all  resulting  of  course  in  useful  discoveries. 
The  scientific  world  still  rings,  for  he  tried  removing  the  stomach  of  hospi-

died    before    he    had    finished    the    operation.

One  bright  November  day  there  arrived  a  beautiful  and  valuable  birth- 
day present  at  the  Kirby  home,  in  the  city  of  Uniontown,  Fayette  Co. 
This  present,  which  has  been  so  highly  prized  and  which  has  been  strew- 
ing joy  and  sunshine  everywhere  since  its  arrival,  is  no  other  than  our 
dignified   and   ambitious   Alice. 

Prior  to  attending  C  S.  N.  S.,  Alice  spent  most  of  her  time  in  Union- 
town  and  StrattonviUe.  She  is  always  ready  to  lend  a  helping  hand, 
and  her  motto  is; — 'Never  trouble  trouble  until  trouble  troubles  you." 
Her  favorite  pastime  is  studying  literature  and  art,  as  well  as  trying  to

toward  the  class  of  1913.  This  was  especially  manifested  in  the  Spring

Venus,  Pa. 

One  bright  June  day  in  1894  Stella  Mae  Korb  alighted  on  this  earth 
near  Venus,  Pa.  Her  dutiful  parents  sent  her  to  the  Beck  School  near 
her  home  until  she  became  too  much  for  her  teachers.  She  was  then 
accordingly  sent  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  to  further  her  education,  and  unite  with 
the  class  of  '13.  She  is  very  fond  of  Ancient  History  and  has  taken  it 
several  times.  Stella  never  breaks  rules,  except  to  go  "skipping"  occas- 
ionally  and   to  solve  a   "riddle"  during  study  period.

"Bashful  Sue"  (>)  alighted  on  our  plane!  in  the  city  of  Knox,  Pa.,  and 
there  she  decided  to  stay.  After  graduating  from  the  Grammar  School, 
she  centered  her  mind  on  the  study  of  music.  Then  she  decided  to  come 
to  Clarion  and  join  the  *13's,  where  she  made  use  of  her  gift  from 
"Musaeus."  Her  loving  and  gentle  disposition  has  won  for  her  the 
esteem  of  all   her  classmates. 

Since  it  has  been  said  that  lo  be  a  successful  teacher,  one  must  have 
the  "gift  of  speech,"  we  have  no  doubt  but  that  she  will  make  a  very 
successful  one.  She  says  that  teaching  is  her  chosen  profession  but  we 
belie^e   she   will    soon    be   absorbed    in   Domestic    Science. 

"Kribbs  IS   her   name,  single   is  her  station."

Ruth  commonly  known  as  "Red,"  or  '  Rufus,"  came  lo  C.  S.  N.  S. 
in  the  Spring  of  1912  to  increase  her  large  store  of  knowledge.  She  fin- 
ished the  H.  S.  course  in  the  class  of  '11  of  B.  R.  H.  S.,  and  here  the 
same  sweet  disposition  was  shown  as  displayed   in   her   life  in   Navarre. 

Red  has  a  weakness  for  having  her  lights  an  after  len  oMo-k.  aid 
as  a  result  a  gentle  rap  is  soon  heard.  Ruth  is  a  member  of  the  B.  L.  S. 
and  an  important  part  of  the  Y  choir.  Her  dream  for  the  future  is  to 
make  her  home  in  Canada  and  the  castles  she  builds  are  sehr,  sehr  viele. 
ja,  Ja.  Ruth's  motto  is: — "Keep  cool  and  it  can  be  said  she  has  never 
been   seen   otherwise." 

"Gluck  Auf"  is  our  wish  for  her  in  her  future  life. 


Mary  Viola  Lauffer, 
Shippenville.  Pa. 

Old   Maid's  Bench. 

A  certain  bright  day,  in  the  month  of  roses,  was  made  still  brighter. 
by  the  appearance  of  this  sunny  disposilioned  little  Fraulein.  Since  ihal 
day  her  whole  ambition  has  been  to  make  the  world  brighter. 
She  has  many  amiable  characteristics.  one  of  which  is 
fidelity.  She  has  always  been  faithful  to  the  school,  as  well  as 
to  her  native  country,  in  which  she  has  already  rendered  one  year  of  ef- 
ficient service  in  return  for  that  which  she  had  previously  received.  Since 
joinmg  our  class  in  the  Sprmg  of  1911,  she  has  been  our  old  stand-by. 
especially  in   Pjiysics. 

Mary  has  discovered  that  some  exceedingly  large  zoological  specimens 
can  be  obtained  on  a  moonlight  trip,  which  gives  variety  to  school  life. 
Her  chief  pleasure  is  traveling,  from  which  many  mtcresting  events  can 
be  recalled,  such  as  riding  three  on  a  single  seat. 

On  the  whole  Mary  is  very  sensible  and  we  are  sure  will  make 
good.

nessed the  opening  of  each  succeeding  term.  In  spile  of  many  winning 
smiles  from  the  fair  sex,  Charles  is  determined  lo  be  a  bachelor.  He  is 
undecided  as  to  whether  his  sphere  of  usefulness  lies  in  Cuba,  the  Philip- 
pines, or  one  of  our  great  western  slates.  We  hope  wherever  his  incli- 
nations  lead   him,   his   future   life  will   be  one   of   happiness   and  success.

Samuel  O.   Logan, 
West  Monterey,  Pa. 

Sam  is  one  of  the  popular  boys  of  "The  '13's,"  not  only  among  the 
girls  but  also  in  olher  lines.  He  served  for  Iwo  terms  as  Vice  Pres  dent 
of  F.  S.  S.  and  one  term  as  treasurer.  He  belongs  to  Orchestra, 
Mandolin  Club,  Sequelle  Staff  and  leader  of  C.  S.  N.  S.  acrobats. 

Sam,  since  taking  up  his  abode  in  the  bell  tower,  has  taken  great 
interest  in  the  morse  code.  As  a  result,  he  is  able  to  manipulate  the  gas 
light   very   successfully. 

He  is  going  to  North  Warren  to  see  about  a  position  (?)  there. 
Somehow  or  other  we  think  that  he  would  find  his  work  there  very 
pleasant. 

One  fault  that  he  has  however,  it  that  of  proposing  to  girls  uncon- 
sciously   and    then    being    dismissed    when    they    lake    him    seriously.

Big    Run,    Pa. 

This  brown  eyed  girl  entered  the  home  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  L.  E.  Lolt  of 
Big  Run  in  1892.  She  received  her  early  education  in  the  Cross  Roads 
School  and  being  desirous  of  more  knowledge  came  to  C.  S.  N.  S.  to 
further  her  education.  Millie  is  a  kind-hearted,  happy-go-lucky  girl. 
Along  with  her  good  qualities  she  has  the  habit  of  spending  a  large 
part  of  her  study  periods  in  the  room  across  the  hall.  She  is  often 
heard  to  remark,  "O  Gash,  but  some  of  these  cases  make  me  tired."  Of 
course  we  can  excuse  Millie  for  this  as  she  claims  she  has  had  no  experi- 
ence in  such  affairs.  Here  we  will  leave  her,  hoping  that  her  career  in 
the   future  will   be  as  successful  as  her  stay  here  has  been.

n.  In  her  early  life  her  chief  amusement  was  composing  poetry

1913  was  going  to  be  the  largest  and  best  class  in  the  history  of

Corsica,    Pa. 

Bashful,  modest,  shy,  and  good-natured.  All  tSese  adjectives  apply  to 
'"Betty."  Once  in  a  great  while  she  has  been  known  to  take  sudden 
notions  for  '  rough-housing"  but  that  is  seldom,  for  her  peaceful  nature 
does    not    cater    to    being    "caught-in-the-act." 

"Betty"  believes  in  "Sleep,  Rest  and  Eat."  Her  fa- orite  study  15 
Mythology    in    which    she    enjoys    the    story    of    Morpheus. 

In  poetry,  she  does  not  care  for  the  poem  "Queen  of  the  May"  on 
account  of  the  nuo'ation.  Call  me  early.  Mother  dear,  for  I'm  to  be 
Queen  of  the  May."  On  the  other  hand  her  favorite  song  is.  "  Please 
Go  Way  and  Let  Me  .Sleep."  Betty  surely  must  have  pleasant  dream' 
although  she  does  not  talk  in  her  sleep  and  indeed  very  little  when 
awake,  but  sSe  is  a  dandy  nice  kid.  nevertheless.  One  of  her  favorite 
pastimes  is  to  count  the  days  until  vacation,  regardless  of  how  early  in 
the    term    it   might    be. 

Success  to  you.    "Belly. '"

As  the  fierce  March  winds  were  blowing  their  fiercest  gales.  Polly 
stepped  into  a  Presbyterian  Minister's  home  in  Curlhville.  She  being  a 
Minister's  daughter  we  may  say  "Nuf  sed."  for  she  Is  the  typ  cal  Minis- 
ter's child.  After  attending  the  Means  School  a  number  of  vears.  she 
decided  to  lake  up  higher  work.  She  entered  ihe  Sligo  High  School, 
and  was  graduated  in  the  class  of  1911.  taking  highest  honors.  Sh« 
ihen.  in  the  Fall  of  1911.  entered  C  S.  N.  S.  taking  Middle-Junior, 
and  joining  the  class  of  1913.  Polly  declares,  after  teaching  two  years, 
she  will  marry  a  modern  farmer,  but  from  all  evidences  we  fear  thai 
hers    will    be    the    fate    of    a    Doctor's    wife.

Mac  madt  her  adveni  mio  ih.s  vale  of  lears  on  a  beautiful  fall  day 
in  the  year  1894.  She  gathered  the  fruits  of  an  early  education  in  the 
Munderf  Common  School.  When  scarcely  twelve  years  old,  she  broke 
her  Mother's  apron  strings  and  went  to  Indiana  Normal  for  one  term, 
but  while  (here  she  contracted  the  measles  and  on  account  of  her  im- 
paired health  did  not  return  to  school.  In  the  Fall  of  191!  she  slid  into 
Clarion  on  a  two  cent  postage  stamp,  and  has  stuck  here  ever  since, 
casting  her  lot  with  the  '13*5.

One  bright,  sunny  day  in  the  month  of  June,  189?,  Ethel  arrived  in 
the  peaceful  little  town  of  North  Point.  She  received  her  early  edu- 
cation in  the  Model  School  of  Indiana  and  Melzer  School.  She  was 
desirous  to  extend  her  education,  so  in  the  Fall  of  1910,  she  entered 
C.  S.  N.  S.  Her  diligence  and  earnestness  has  made  her  a  worthy 
member  of  our  class.  Ethel  is  very  fond  of  studying.  She  has  spent 
many — many — many    hours    in    study    since    she    came    here. 

You  can  often  hear  her  sigh  and  say,  "Oh,  these  lessons  of  mine." 
Her    favorite    flower    is    the    "Johnnie" — jump-ups,    which    grow    by    the 
road.

talking  in   her   sleep.      But   she  never   mentions   his   name.

One  cold  day  In  January,  a  home  near  Brookville  was  briglilened 
by  the  arrival  of  a  blue  eyed  baby.  This  llllle  lot  was  named  Irene, 
and  became  the  joy  of  the  home.  She  entered  school  at  Brookville  and 
graduated  from  High  School  at  that  place.  She  then  spent  two  years 
in  the  West,  but  decided  that  Pennsylvania  was  the  best  place.  Irene 
has  taught  several  terms  of  school  In  Jefferson.  When  she  entered 
Clarion  Normal,  she  was  so  much  In  love  with  the  place  that  she  joined 
the  class  of  1913.  She  has  always  been  an  Industrious  student  and  we 
all   wish  her  success  in  the   future.

proud  of.  She  graduated  from  the  Emporium  H.  S.,  and  then  taught 
for  two  years.  Bess  is  very  popular  among  her  fellow  students,  and 
often  Is  given  the  epithet  '  Grand  ma."  We  all  would  like  to  know 
who  shall  win  her  heart  away.  Some  say  at  present  she  has  no  heart, 
but    don't    you    believe    It,    boys. 

She   is  an  active  member  of   the    12  o'clock   P.   M.   Club,  but   has  never

Grace  Nicholas, 
Summerville,  Pa. 

Grace  is  a  jolly  member  of  the  Senior  class.  Of  her  many  studies, 
German  and  Caesar  are  her  favorites.  You  often  hear  her  say,  while 
walking  thru  the  sunny  paths  of  Caesar.  "O,  this  will  be  the  death 
of  me!" 

She  is  a  lover  of  nature  and  stands  and  gazes  at  the  distant  hills  for 
hours.  She  likes  to  be  out  in  the  rain  and  often  goes  out  during  the 
largest  snow-storm,  and  has  been  heard  to  say,  "1  wish  it  would 
thunder   and    lightning." 

I  have  often  wondered  why  she  did  not  join  the  debating  society, 
for  debating  is  her  chief  pleasure.  We  all  hope  this  sweel  girl  lives  a 
long  life  and  prospers,  whether  her  calling  be,  Latin  instructor,  nature 
poet   or   debater.

decided  to  joint  the  brilliant  class  of  1913.  "Harry"  has  dislingu 
herself  here  in  manv  ways,  especially  as  a  "Historian."  She  is 
acquainted  with  the  development  of  ihe  stage  coach  in  U.  S.  One 
she  can't  clearly  comprehend  is  how  A.  Lincoln  had  the  heart  to 
"Stephen."  She  is  an  active  member  of  the  Mandolin  Club  an 
always  ready  lo  go  to  practice.  One  thing  which  we  don'l  fully  ui 
stand,  is  why  such  a  fair  damsel  is  an  ardent  advocate  of  '  Wc 
Suffrage."  She  is  meditating  over  church  affairs,  but  we  think  she 
seek    protection    among    the    "Russelliles."

"Percy"  was  graduated  from  C.  S.  N.  S.  Model  School  in  his 
early  years,  and  after  entering  the  Normal  he  progressed  rapidly.  He 
is  an  all  around  good  fellow  and  a  worthy  example  of  our  class  motto; 
"Labor  Omnia  Vincit,"  as  will  be  shown  later.  Owing  lo  his  cheerful 
disposition  he  has  won  the  favor  of  many  of  the  teachers,  one  especially. 
"Percy"  believes  that  one  class  in  astronomy,  daily,  will  not  be  enough, 
so  in  order  lo  widen  his  mental  capacity  on  the  subject,  he  will  en- 
deavor to  have  an  extra  class  in  the  evening,  dum  polis  sidera  pascil.

Waltaburg,    Pa. 

During  one  of  ihc  holiest  monlhs  of  ihe  year,  a  baby  boy  found  his 
way  lo  a  home  in  Erie  Co.  Anthony  received  his  early  education  in 
the  schools  of  that  county,  and  in  the  winler  term  of  191  I  wandered  lo 
C.  S,  N.  S.  Shortly  after  arriving  here,  he  suffered  a  severe  attack  of 
mumps.  During  his  Middle  Year,  he  gained  quite  a  reputation  as  a 
speaker.  Now  he  is  known  as  the  •'Modern  Patrick  Henry  of  the  Class 
of  1913."  Anthony  is  a  very  studious  boy.  and  has  never  been  caught 
hanging  around  the  Reception  Hall.  Occasionally,  however,  he  may 
be  seen  taking  a  walk  out  toward  the  glass  plant.  It  is  needless  lo  say 
he  will  succeed  in  life,  for  we  all  know  he  will  win  great  fame  for  his 
thrilling    speeches     in     favor     of    "Woman    Suffrage."

Anna  hails  from  Bradford.  Ever  since  her  arrival  for  the  Spring 
term  of  1911,  she  has  brightened  all  around  her  by  her  happy  smile  and 
witty  sayings.  She  came  here  from  Lock  Haven  Normal,  where  she  had 
spent  two  terms,  after  her  graduation  from  Bradford  High  School. 
One  of  her  strongest  characteristics  is  her  love  for  Physics  work  (?).  and 
her  chief  aim  in  life  is  to  become  a  "Professoress"  of  German,  and  for 
preparalion  for  this  she  means  to  go  lo  ihe  land  of  Ijer  fathers.  She 
is  so  kind  and  careful  for  those  around  her  that  she  is  called  "Grand-

Troutville,    Pa. 

Herman  F.  Reed  firs!  appeared  upon  (he  globe  in  the  industrious 
town  of  Troutville.  Clearfield  Co..  in  the  middle  Ws.  Here  he  received 
his  early  education  and  became  well  known  in  the  neighborhood  of  his 
home.  He  soon  grew  tired  of  common  school  and  caused  his  teachers 
so  much  trouble  that  his  parents  decided  to  send  him  to  Clarion  Normal 
where  he  might  increase  his  knowledge  and  become  a  teacher.  He 
entered  the  Normal  in  the  Winter  term  of  191  I.  and  joined  the  class  of 
1913.  During  this  time,  he  has  won  many  friends  in  school  life,  and  is 
very    industrious    in    his    studies. 

We  do  not  know  what  he  expects  to  make  of  himself  in  the  future. 
but  we  feel   confident  that  he  will  make  good  at  whatever  he  tries  to  do.

She  attended  the  DislricI  School  for  some  time  and  then  went  to  High

the  world  and  visit  a  metropolis,  she  came  to  Clarion  for  two  Spring 
terms.  In  the  Fall  of  1912.  she  came  back  to  finish  her  training.  Mabel

"It  was  in  the  bleak  November,  "  the  nighl  was  cold  and  dreary,  the

within    doors.       It    was    none    other    than     "Our    Twila.  " 

This  plump  little  cherub  grew  up  and  exhausted  the  educational 
resources  of  her  native  town,  but  was  not  satisfied,  so  decided  to  broaden 
her  horizon,  by  a  course  in  the  Clarion  Normal.  Thus  we  find  her  witS

Twila  is  a  quiet,  unassuming  maiden,  ever  ready  to  perform  an  act  of 
kindness,  or  give  a  smiling  word  of  encouragement  to  the  disheartened. 
She  is  beloved  bv  all  who  know  her.  and  her  sunshiny  presence  will  no 
doubt  brighten  many  a  dingy  school-room,  and  g 
many  a  forlorn  urchin.  May  success  ever  crown  he

Do!  created  her  /irs/  disturbance  in  1776  in  the  county  seat  of 
Clarion.  She  tho't  herself  highly  educated  when  she  stepped  forth  from 
High  School  with  a  shcep-slcin,  but  finding  nothing  belter  to  do,  she 
deeded  to  do  the  Faculty  of  C.  S.  N.  S.  For  this  reason  she  en!ered 
the    class    of    MS. 

She  should  have  graduated  with  honors,  but,  being  of  such  a  generous 
disposition,  (as  we  all  know)  she  decided  to  confer  the  honors  on  some 
uf  her  class-males. 

Here's   hoping   that   she   gets   all    that's  coming   to  her   hereafter.

Ruth,  better  known  as  "Bob,"  graduated  from  Clarion  High  School 
and  the  same  year  joined  the  class  of  1913.  After  completing  her

Mary  Acnes  Shannon, 
Reynoldsville,  Pa. 

Mary  Agnes  began  talking  one  wintry  morning  in  the  early  90's  al 
Brookville  and  has  been  talking  ever  since.  Not  being  satisfied  with 
her  location,  she  moved  to  Tyler  but  this  did  not  suit  her  either  so  she 
moved  to  Reynoldsville  and  there  she  still  remains.  She  received  her 
early  education  in  the  Tyler  and  Reynoldsville  Schools,  but  desiring 
lo  continue  her  education,  wisely  decided  to  join  the  class  of  1913  of  C. 
S.  N.  S. 

You  would  think  by  the  angelic  look  on  Agnes'  face  that  she  would 
never  participate  in  any  mischief  whatever,  but  don't  let  this  look  de- 
ceive you.  Agnes'  common  expression  is,  "Oh,  gee,  but  I'm  hungry." 
Her  favorite  flowers  are  Johnny-jump-ups.  For  recreation,  she  is  very 
fond    of    riding    horseback,    especially    on    other    people's    horses. 

She  intends  to  teach  for  a  while  at  least,  but  whatever  she  chooses 
for    her    life's   vocation,    we    wish    her    the    best    of    success. 


Irene  Showers. 
Clarion,  Pa. 

"Late  to  bed  and  late   to  rise. 

Makes  a   student  healthy,   wealthy,  and   wise." 

Such  is  the  maxim  of  one  of  our  Clarion  county  pillars.  I 
if  it  is  always  carrired  out?  Irene  was  born  near  Framplon  som 
the  early  90's.  After  graduating  from  the  Public  School,  sSe 
to  teach  the  children  of  the  future  generation,  and  of  course 
Clarion  lo  prepare  for  the  duties  she  expected  to  perform.  As 
great  lover  of  children,  we  have  no  doubt  but  that  she  will  suci 
perform  her  duties.  ^  et  we  believe  she  also  loves  marsSmalloWi,  : 
when  they  are  eaten  near  the  "Tedder."  May  she  have  success  \ 
her   life's   work.

Claire  Siimpson, 
Kane,  Pa. 

In  the  early  90's,  our  little  Claire  dropped  from  the  skies  to  a  small 
town,  namely,  Scotch  Hill,  receiving  her  early  education  in  this  place. 
She  then  moved  to  Kane,  where  she  extended  her  channel  of  learning. 
Claire  entered  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  the  Fall  of  1911,  and  proved  an  indus- 
trious and  determined  student.  One  never  hears  this  girl  complain.  She 
faces    her    trials    bravely    always   coming   out    ahead    in    the   end. 

Before  closing  it  seems  necessary  that  something  should  be  said  con- 
cerning her  matrimonial  affairs.  At  the  present  time  she  is  wearing  a 
diamond. 


Robert  G.  Simpson,  "Bob," 
Corsica,    Pa. 

Who's  that  swinging  up  ihe  walk?  One  can  surely  mislake  nrilher  ihal 
walk  nor  smile,  for  that  is  our  studious,  sunnv  hearted  "Bachelor?  Bob." 
That  energetic  walk  has  fascinations  of  its  own  to  say  nothing  about  "The 
Old   Stone    House"    by    moonlight.      What's    that    Loraine? 

Never  mind.  Bob,  we  know  you  to  be  true  blue  and  always  ready  lo 
give   a   lift   or   cheer   some   one   in   the    "dumps." 

We'll  not  soon  forget  you  "Old  Comrade,"  and  here  is  the  hand 
of  1913  10  wish  for  you  many  years  in  which  to  be  a  walking  "sunshine" 
peddler. 

"For    he    is   a    jolly,    good    fellow,   which    no   one   can   deny." 


Ula  Simpson, 
Scotch  Hill,  Pa. 

Ula  made  her  first  disturbance  in  Scotch  Hill  in  the  month  of 
Storms,  with  a  smile  on  her  face.  Her  early  education  in  the  Scotch 
Hill  Academy;  later  she  spent  a  year  in  the  school  at  Leeper.  Still 
wishing  to  gam  higher  education,  she  came  lo  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  1910.  Since 
her  arrival  here,  she  has  been  very  quiet,  especially  in  the  Dining  Room. 
She  always  does  the  right  thing,  going  to  her  room  every  night  at  6:30, 
and  studies  until  7:00,  Her  one  ambition  is  to  be  teacher  of  mathe- 
matics, and  whatever  she  does,  she  has  the  very  best  wishes  of  the 
class  of   1913   for  her  future  success. 


Flo.n  De  Slotterbeck, 
Du  Bols,  Pa. 

Flon  entered  upon  her  eventful  career  in  the  enterprising  village  of 
East  Brady,  Pa.  After  attending  the  East  Brady  High  School,  Flon 
moNed  to  Du  Bois,  Here  she  again  entered  school  but  only  for  a  short 
lime  for  Flon,  one  day  in  the  Fall  of  1912,  surprised  the  Clarion  students 
by  joining  the  jolly  'H's.  We  think  Flon  was  not  fitted  to  become  a 
minister's  wife,  although  at  one  time,  all  indications  pointed  that  way. 
Now  she  has  taken  up  the  study  of  "Art,"  which  lo  her  is  more  inter- 
esting  than   any   subject    taught   at  Clarion. 

We  wonder  why  she  is  so  afraid  in  the  dark  (?),  but  Flon  never  hesi- 
tates lo  play  a  Irick  on  any  one.  Beat  her  if  you  can.  After  completing 
her  course  here,  she  expects  lo  teach  a  while,  at  least.  May  she  have 
success  wherever  she  goes. 


Della  Evelyn  Smith, 
Straltonville.    Pa. 

One  of  the  members  of  the  class  of  '13  is  Della  Evelyn  Smilh.  It  was 
in  the  early  90's  the  smiling  face  of  Delia  first  appeared.  She  graduated 
from  Common  School,  (hen  came  to  the  Normal  for  two  terms.  She 
decided  to  enlarge  her  knowledge  by  going  to  Strattonville  High  School. 
She  graduated  from  there  m  1911,  taking  first  honors.  Then  she  came 
back  to  the  Normal  and  is  now  a  member  of  the  class  of  1913.  Her 
plans  for  the  future  are  quite  unsettled,  but  we  feel  sure  she  will  be  suc- 
cessful   in    whatever    profession    she    chooses. 


Hazel  M.  Smith. 
New  Castle,  Pa. 

Hazel  May  Smith  has  lived  in  New  Castle  all  her  life.  She  attended 
ihe  Public  Schools  there,  graduating  from  the  High  School  with  ihe  class 
of  1910.  After  a  year  of  Supernumerary  work,  she  taught  very  suc- 
cessfully, in  the  city  schools,  for  one  year.  Then,  because  she  wished 
lo  advance  her  leaching  ability,  last  Spring  she  went  to  Slippery  Rock 
Normal,  where  she  passed  Junior-Middle  work.  It  was,  therefore,  as  a 
Senior  that  she  first  entered  C.  S.  N.  S. — a  shy,  modest,  bright-eyed 
little  maid,  loved  by  all  who  know  her.  Hazel  is  not  only  bright  of  eyes, 
but  bright  of  intellect.  It  is  not  unusual  to  see  lOO'.r  or  nearly  that 
written  at  the  lop  of  her  examination  papers.  Nor  is  she  satisfied  unless 
this  is  so.  In  manner  she  is  unassuming  and  sincere,  and  for  her  we 
predict    a    very    happy    and   successful    future.

Sequelle   Staff;    Senior    Double   Quartette 

After  graduating  from  Peterson's  Business  College,  and  after  four 
years  spent  instructing  the  youths  of  Jefferson  Co.,  Ray  decided  to  come 
to  Clarion  lo  further  his  education.  By  his  earnest  work,  amiable  dis- 
position and  fascinating  smile,  he  has  won  the  favor  of  his  teachers  and 
classmates.  As  president  of  the  class,  he  deserves  much  credit  for  his 
leadership  during  the  year  1912  and  13,  ever  setting  a  good  example  and 
holding   before   his    followers    the  mollo,    "Labor   omnia    vincit."

Contest;    Soloist   Democrat,  etc. 

Bob  received  his  early  education  in  the  Corsica  Grammar  and  High 
School.  In  the  Spring  of  1911  he  decided  to  come  to  C.  S.  N.  and 
join  the  13's.  Bob  is  very  fond  of  athletics,  but  in  keeping  up  an 
athletic  record  he  does  not  neglect  the  other  side.  He  decided  just  a 
short  time  ago  to  gel  a  little  Pie  (Moore)  in  the  Domestic  Science  dep't, 
and    as    far   as   we   know   he   succeeded    very   well. 

Bob,  nevertheless,  is  a  good  student  and  a  gentleman  in  e  ery  respect. 
He  expects  to  follow  Law  and  it  is  our  wish  that  success  may  attend 
him   in  everything   that  he  undertakes.

Izora  is  a  jolly  good  girl  and  always  wears  an  "Angelic  Grin."  She

the  Senior  Class,  where  she  increased  her  knowledge,  bumps  considerably. 
Her  chief  hobbies  are  "Losin  Things"  and  '  Studying  Late,"  with  the 
light  in  the  clothes  press.  She  has  made  good  in  all  her  school  life 
and  may  success  be  with  her  wherever  she  is  and  in  whatever  line  of 
work  she  is  engaged. 


Olive  Evangeline  Trunick,

Fall  lerm  of  '12,  afler  having  completed  her  H.  S.  course  at  Coraopolis. 
Her  chief  desire  is  to  run  an  automobile,  and  be  a  School  marm.  She 
is  one  of  the  shining  lights  of  third  floor,  but  her  brilliancy  is  explained 
by  the  fact  that  she  was  born  in  Sharpsburg,  one  boiling  hot  day  in 
July.  Her  favorite  expression  is,  "Oh,  Pickles."  Who  it  is  we  do  not 
know,  but  may  it  lead  her  along  the  road  of  success  which  we  know  Olive

Myrlle  Varner  was  born  in  Clarion  in  ihe  lalter  pari  of  the  r 
century.  She  started  her  career  in  the  Kindergarten,  then  entered  the 
Model  School  and  was  graduated  several  years  ago.  Myrlle  is  the  only 
lepresentative  in  this  large  class  of  the  Vs.  and  besides  going  lo  school 
and  getting  her  lessons,  she  spends  several  hours  each  day  in  "Candy 
Land."  She  likes  all  kinds  of  candy,  but  her  fa\orite  kind  is  kisses. 
Myrtle  says  she  intends  lo  teach  school  in  the  future,  but  we  think  she 
will   become  "die  Frau  des   Holzherr." 


Helen  Elizabeth  Walters, 
Clarion,   Pa. 

Helen,  the  May  Queen  of  the  class  of  1913,  takes  no  interest  in  Clarion 
cases,  but  remains  true  to  her  "Jack."  wilh  whom  she  hopes  to  establish 
an  ideal  country  home.  After  teaching  for  one  week  in  the  Model 
School,  she  is  enthusiastic  over  the  vocation  of  leaching.  Her  German 
constructions  have  saved  the  class  when  failure  seemed  certain,  and  all  of 
her  friends  join  in  the  hope  that  her  aspirations  of  becoming  a  modern 
Raphael   may   be   realized.

It    is    a    difficult    task    to   write   Gert's    biography    because    she

the  subject,  she  chooses  a  subject  on  which  she  can  ;alk   fluently. 

Instead  of  leaching  she  frequently  talks  of  taking  up  Domestic  Science

Anna  Weitz. 
Pittsburgh,  Pa. 

.Anna  s  smiling  face  first  appeared  one  sunny  day  in  Seplember  in  good 
old  Clarion.  She  has  won  many  friends  by  her  winning  d  sposition  and 
smiling  countenance.  .Anna  had  become  so  allached  to  Clarion  and  to 
her  friends  that  she  could  not  break  away,  until  a  few  years  ago  she 
said  farewell  lo  Clarid^i  and  went  to  her  sunny  home  on  Shady  Ave,, 
Pittsburgh. 

Anna  attended  the  Parochial  School  and  then,  deciding  to  become  a 
school  teacher,  ioined  the  class  of  '13,  She  has  always  been  a  loyal 
member  of  her  class  and  has  always  set  a  worthy  example  to  all  who 
knew  her.      She  never  left  her  room  at  night  during  study  hours   (?). 

Anna  is  often  heard  singing,  '  Every  ship  will  find  a  harbor,"  altho  she 
firmly  believes  in  single  blessedness.

The   fart  I'lal   the  vicinage  of  Hannibal,'  N.  Y.,  is  renowned  as  a  peach 
growing    community    must    account    for    the    origin    of    Mrs.    Lora    in    that 
locality.      Such    was    apparently    the    opinion    of    a    certain    young    school 
master,    who    transported    this    choice    specimen    to    Clarion    some    fourteen 
years  ago. 

Six  years  training  in   the   Art  Course  of   the  Rochester  Athenaeum  and 
Mechanics    Institute,   served    as   a   preliminary   to   extended  work   in    Liter- 
ature  and    Ihe   Sciences   in   C.   S.   N.   S.      It   is   her  peculiar  claim   to  have 
attained     eminent     distinction     as    a     student,     teacher,    artist,     housekeeper, 
hostess  and  mother  of  many  motherless  ones.      Moreover,  on   the  very   best 
possible  authority,  she  is  said  lo  be  the  only  person  who  has  ever  succeeded 
in   keeping  "Dad"  beneath  her   thumb. 
"She  is  mine  own. 
.And   I   as  rich  in  having  such   a   jewel

Mabelle  Claire  White. 
Showers.  Pa. 

Mabelle   Claire   While   arrived   in    Mill  Creek   township  in   a 
in    January,     1893.      On    account    of    the    inclement    weather    bei 
to  growth,  she  has  always  remained  small,  but  is  quite  capable  < 
herself  heard. 

After  a  time,  she  became  dissatisfied  with  her  surroundings  a 
to  Limestone  township,  where  she  attended  the  Pine  Grove  Scho 
being  convinced  of  the  truth  of  the  saying.  "A  little  learning  is  a  danger- 
ous thing,"  she  decided  to  come  to  Clarion  Normal  to  further  her 
education,  and  to  see  if  happily  she  might  meet  here  the  best  man  in  the 
world.  She  admires  now  one.  now  another  but  none  long  enough  to  de- 
cide that  he  is  the  'best  man."  Mabelle  Claire  has  a  habit  of  saying 
"My  honey  kiss  me  and  say  you'll  miss  me.  when  I  am  gone."  She 
probably  means  when  she  goes  out  in  the  wide,  wide  world.  We  shall 
miss  her  smiling  face,  but  we  wish  her  happiness  and  success  in  her  chosen 
work   of    teaching,   whether   she   has   one   pupil  or   many. 


Edna  Wiley, 
Brookville,   Pa. 


Brown  eyed  Edna  began  life's  journey  near  Brookville  and  ha-,  ing 
successfully  completed  the  first  six  vears  of  her  life,  she  entered  school  at 
Pleasant  Hill.  Becoming  weary  of  the  monotony  of  a  Rural  School,  she 
entered,  first.  Grammar  School  and  then.  High  School  in  Brookville. 
Tiring  even  of  that  in  a  couple  of  years,  she  went  back  to  the  Rural 
School  as  a  teacher.  However,  at  one  time  during  her  varied  career.  Ed- 
na had  spent  a  few  months  at  Clarion  Normal.  Finding  it  to  be  the 
only  place  where  she  could  fall  asleep  any  time  in  the  evening,  she 
joinedjhe  class  of  1913  to  stay.  Her  fad  here  is  studying  German,  nor 
does  she  rely  wholly  on  books,  but  spends  much  of  her  lime  with  "Dutch" 
(Welfling).  Edna  is  not  a  favorite  of  one  only,  but  loved  by  all  who 
know   her. 


Florence  Williams, 
Cooperslown,  Pa. 

Florence  entered  upon  her  career  in  an  enterprising  little  town  in  Ohio. 
She  flew  with  the  birds  to  Cooperslown,  Venango  Co.,  Pa.,  where  she 
spent  her  early  years,  attending  Public  School  and  later  entered  Coopers- 
lown High  School,   from  which  she  graduated  in    1911. 

Still  higher  aims  were  hers,  so  she  decided  to  come  to  C.  S.  N.  S., 
and  is  now  a  member  of  the  illustrious  class  of  1913.  Her  favorite  pas- 
lime  is  reading  fairy  stories.  She  is  especially  delighted  with  "Jack  and 
The  Bean  Stalk."  She  is  fond  of  oul-door  sports,  for  Instance,  horse 
back  riding.  Of  the  many  sleeds  at  her  command  "Jackie  Aeneas"  is 
ihe  most  trusty. 

After  completing  her  course  here,  she  expects  to  teach  for  a  while 
at  least.      May  she  have  success  wherever  she  goes.

qualities  in  Mills,  Pa.,  Poller  Co.  In  1910,  after  having  gradualed 
from  Harrison  Valley  H.  S.  she  brandished  the  rod  over  a  lot  of  urch-

Then  longing  for  a  broader  influence  and  a  wider  circle  of  friends  she

Altho'  Max  was  not  on  the  Sequelle  Staff,  she  spent  many  serious  (?) 
moments  in  the  Sequelle  room.  Max  is  anxiously  awaiting  warm  weather 
so    she    can    go   walking    to   the    Parke    (?). 

Maxie's  fondest  day  dream  is  over  the  arrival  of  10  P.  M..  when

In   the  last  position  she  spends  many   a  serious  moment   in  the  Seqi

Mgr.   lo  gather   material    for   the  Sequelle. 

Doctor  Bechi  once  said  that  Pris  looked  as  tho  she  were  a  little  ar 
crat,  and  we  heartily  agree  with  him,  even  tho  she  is  a  lovable  dish-w 
er.  Her  chief  slang  expression  is  M  I— LOve,  but  with  all  her  slang, 
is  Beautiful.  Kissable  and  Nice.  She  is  very  much  interested  in 
religious  welfare  of  the  boys  as  is  shown  by  her  willingness  to  I 
Milo  go  to  '  Y."  even  if  he  does  have  to  be  carried  there. 

Besides  her  other  accomplishments,  Pris  is  noted  for  her  ability  as

C.  Lee  O'Donnel.  'Don," 
Reynoldsville.  Pa. 

Football;  Class  Basket  Ball;  Bus.  Mgr.  Senior  Class  Play;  Lit.  Con- 
testant  '12;    B.   L.  S. 

"Don"  first  put  in  his  appearance  at  C.  S.  N.  S.  in  the  Winter  term 
of  1912.  He  was  here  only  a  short  time  when  he  showed  a  wonderful 
tendency  to  go  with  engaged  women.  This  is  truthfully  corroborated 
by  "Bulligan."  In  the  Spring  term  of  12  Don  changed  his  tactics  and 
started  to  raise  "Kane." 

Lee  holds  the  record  for  being  the  high  jumper  of  the  school,  his 
mark  being  from  second  floor  windows  in  Steven's  Hall  to  the  hard 
ground    beneath. 

But  as  "Don"  is  still  young  he  will  most  likely  outgrow  these  bad 
habits.  His  many  friends  predict  for  him  a  successful  career,  in  anything 
that  he   should   make  his   life's   work. 


Martha  Lois  Pickens,  "Picky," 
Clarion,  Pa. 

F.  L.  S.;    Glee  Club;    Senior  Basket   Bali. 

The  class  of  1913  knew  a  graduate  of  1912  would  be  necessary  to 
help  them  through,  and  so  they  got  "Picky"  and  every  one  agrees  that 
they   could   not   have  made   a   belter  choice. 

She  may  be  little,  but  Oh!  that  mind.  She  shines  in  Latin,  she  glist- 
ens in  Science,  and  she  is  a  gleaming  headlight  in  Drawing.  Picky  is 
always  getting  into  trouble  and  since  the  day  she  left  the  Dorm  to  oblige 
Miss  Givan,  she  spends  her  vacant  periods  in  the  Library.  As  she  is  so 
little  you  would  think  she  would  prefer  large  people  but  Picky  says, 
"she  would  rather  be  a  big  (ish  in  a  little  pool,  than  a  little  fish  in  a 
big  pool.  " 

Picky  is  one  of  the  best  girls  in  the  school  and  every  one  has  a  good 
word    for   her.      1913   is  certainly   grateful    to    1912    for   her. 


Bertha  Elizabeth  Scowden,  "Bird," 
Tionesta,  Pa. 

Glee   Club;    Choir;    Class   Artist;    Fourth   Year. 

Here  comes  the  'Bird"  of  our  class.  Just  what  kind  of  a  "Bird" 
she  is,  IS  hard  to  tell,  but  we  feel  sure  she  is  never  a  blue  "Bird."  How- 
ever, she  hails  from  Tionesia  and  was  gradualed  from  T.  H.  S.  in  1910. 
After  teaching  for  a  year,  she  came  to  Clarion  and  joined  the  'I3's. 

Bird  is  very  industrious,  studies  all  the  time,  never  goes  to  bed  before 
eight  o'clock,  and  always  rises  before  seven.  After  finishing  her  course 
here.  Bird  expects  to  teach  for  a  few  years  and  then  fly  away  to  India, 
where  she  will   administer  to  the  sick. 


Hester  Smith, 
Emlenlon,  Pa. 


Fourth  Year. 

Here  is  Hester  with  a  smile  all  over  her  face.  One  cold  day  in  March 
there  arrived  in  the  little  village  of  Rockland  a  wonderful  being,  and  on 
discovery   it  was  found   to  be   "only   Hester." 

Hester  is  a  happy-go-lucky  kid;  her  motto  is:  "Have  a  good  time,  and 
to  C.  S.  N.  S.  where  she  entered  as  a  Middle-Junior.  But  owing  to  the 
number  of  convolutions  in  her  brain,  the  faculty  transferred  her  into  the 
Fourth   ^'ear  Class  where  she  stands  in  high  rank. 

Hester  is  a  happy-go-lucky  kid,  her  motto  is:  "Have  a  good  time,  and 
suffer  the  consequences."  Her  admirers  are  many  which  is  plain  to  be 
seen.  We  often  see  Hester  gazing  out  of  her  window  looking  dreamingly 
at  the  Court  House.  Hester  says  she  would  like  to  teach,  but  sometimes 
we  think  she  would  rather  assist  in  a  law  office.  We  all  know  Hester 
and  are  always  glad  to  see  her  smiling  face  appear.  We  wish  her  world- 
wiae   fame,  which  we  know  she  will  win.

After  taking  the  part  of  "Ingomar,"  m  the  Senior  class  play,  George

Class  History 


With  increased  numbers  and  our  So|)liomore  President  in  tlie  ciiair  our 
first  meeting  was  called  Nov.  7,  1913,  at  which  time  we  elected  our  class 
officers  for  the  ensuing  year.  The  spirit  of  harmony  which  prevailed,  when 
we  were  so  few.  continues,  anci  we  are  all  taking  an  actne  interest  in  the  class 
and  school  work. 

Noting  the  absence  of  Old  Glory  from  the  ffag-pole,  our  boys  now  see 
that  the  loved  Stars  and  Stripes  float  over  us  thruout  the  day.  No  activity 
of  C.  S.  N.  S.  would  be  complete  without  the  14's.  The  right  balcony 
decorations  for  the  Gymnasium  Exhibition  were  much  admired,  especially  the 
green  and  white  on  the  summit.  The  splendid  work  done  by  the  Juniors  with 
dumb  bells  and  clubs  was  a  source  of  comment. 

Notwithstanding  our  depleted  treasury  we  decided  to  entertain  the  school 
with  a  "Hop"  on  Feb.  I,  1913.  We  feel  we  voice  the  sentiment  of  the 
entire  C.  S.  N.  S.  when  we  say  this  was  the  most  enjoyable  event  of  the 
term.  Navarre  Hall  was  decorated  with  our  class  colors,  and  1914  pen- 
nants were  in  evidence  everywhere.  Dainty  programmes,  carrying  out  the 
color  scheme,  were  distributed  as  souvenirs, — and  each  member  of  the  class 
wore  daisies.  Fruit  punch  was  served  during  the  evening.  The  green  and 
white  was  again  noticeable  in  the  refreshments,  which  consisted  of  ice-cream 
and  fancy  cakes.  The  School  Orchestra  furnished  the  music  and  was  most 
generous  in  its  encores.  Teachers  and  students  entered  into  the  spirit  of  the 
occasion  and  all  were  loath  to  say  "Good-night,"  when  the  bell  summoned 
us  to  our  rooms — reminding  us  that — the  "Junior  Hop"  was  but  a  ine'^'  ory. 

We  came  to  the  close  of  the  year  with  courage  for  Slate  Board  and 
glorious  hopes  of  soon  being  Seniors.  But  before  saying  Adieu  to  our  friends 
of  the  class  of  1913,  we  wish  to  express  our  appreciation  of  their  many  cour- 
tesies to  us  and  to  wish  one  and  all  success.  B.  E.  L,,    14. 


Class   History 


The  hearts  of  the  class  of  1915  swelled  with  pride  as  we  took  the 
Sophomore  seats  in  the  Chapel  at  the  opening  exercises  of  the  school  year. 
"What  a  contrast  we  were  from  the  badly  scared  little  boys  and  girls  who 
were  accustomed  to  being  called  "Freshies." 

At  our  first  class  meeting,  which  was  held  October  15th,  1912,  we 
found  that  our  ranks  were  depleted  and  our  treasury  empty.  We  were  not 
discouraged,  however,  but  entered  on  our  second  year  determined  to  make  it 
both  pleasant  and  profitable,  and  we  feel  we  have  succeeded. 

One  has  but  to  glance  through  the  Orchestra,  the  Choir,  and  all  school 
enterprises  to  realize  that  our  class  is  doing  its  share  to  contribute  to  the  en- 
joyment of  the  student  body. 

We  have  held  our  own  in  athletics  throughout  the  year,  standing  second 
in  Basket  Ball,  and  shared  honors  with  the  Juniors  at  the  annual  Gymnasium 
Exhibition.  The  left  balcony  decorations,  in  the  Chapel,  at  that  time  proved 
that  we  are  ethusiastic  workers  and  proud  of  the  Orange  and  Black — so  much 
so  that  we  have  chosen  as  our  class  flower  the  Ox-eye  Daisy. 

Soon  we  will  be  Juniors  where  we  will  be  in  the  pride  of  our  student 
life,  and  will  hope  to  accomplish  even  greater  things.  Taking  the  classes  of 
'13  and  '14  as  examples,  we  expect  to  reach  a  helping  hand  to  those  below 
us,  and  continue  our  march  forward,  hoping  to  reach  the  goal  in  1915,  and 
then  graduate  a  class  of  which  the  Clarion  State  Normal  may  be  justly  proud. 

A.  R. 

All  hail  to  thee,  old  nineteen  fifteen. 

The  fairest  class  in  all  our  land. 

Our  cordial  love  to  thee  confess 

An  ardent  youthful  band. 

Our  hearts  beat  firm  and  strong  for  thee. 

Our  voices  smg  thy  praise; 

In  one  accord  we  pledge  to  thee 

Devotion  of  our  days.

Class  History 


It  was  a  beautiful  autumn  day  when  we  arnved  at  C.  S.  N.  S.,  Sept. 
10,  1912.  We  were  met  at  the  train  and  conducted  to  the  Norma,  by  .stu- 
dents who  had  been  here  before  and  were  famiHar  with  the  ground. 

After  dinner  we  registered  and  the  next  day,  enrolled  in  our  \arious 
classes.  For  a  while,  we  were  in  a  state  of  subdued  excitement,  but  gradu- 
ally we  became  quite  at  home  and  grew  to  really  like  Normal  life. 

The  most  notable  event  of  the  Fall  term  was  the  Thanksgiving  Duiiier 
on  Nov.  28,  which  we  all  thoroughly  enjoyed.  School  closed  Dec.  19, 
after  a  siege  of  exams,  and  we  all  went  home  for  our  well  earned  vacation 
which  was  enjoyed  to  the  fullest  extent. 

On  Jan.  3,  1913,  we  came  back  for  our  winters  work.  The  most  im- 
portant event  of  this  term  was  the  Gym  exhibition  on  ih''  evening  of  March 
15,  in  which  the  Freshmen  took  a  prominent  part.  On  March  18,  we  left 
Clarion  for  our  Easter  vacation,  from  which  we  returned  March  27,  at  least, 
some  of  us  returned;  the  rest  were  delayed  by  the  floods  but  finally  arrived 
safe. 

This  term  we  are  deep  in  work  and  are  worrying  our  brains  as  to  how 
we  can  do  all  the  scheduled  work  in  the  fourteen  weeks  allotted  to  us.  So 
far  our  class  has  done  little  to  bring  its  name  before  the  footlights;  but  three 
years  hence  as  Seniors,  we — but  you  will  see.

To  those  who  have  really  known  the  man,  to  those  who  groan  and  have 
grown  under  his  teaching,  any  attempts  to  explain  his  personality  seem  inade- 
quate, comparisons  unsatisfactory  for  he  is  at  all  times,  above  all  else,  him- 
self. His  personality  is  distinct  and  irresistible.  His  gifts,  his  accomplish- 
ments are  not  conventional;  they  are  entirely  personal.  Some  of  these  quali- 
ties being  a  keen  insight  into  human  life,  a  trained,  disciplined  and  enriched 
mind,  the  heart  of  a  father,  "Dad,"  the  passion  of  a  friend,  homely  elo- 
quence coupled  with  the  considered  words  of  a  teacher,  and  a  life  training 
and  will  that  have  overcome  all  difficulties  and  produced  the  man  we  know, 
respect  and  love. 

In  personal  gifts  of  inheritance,  then,  in  training,  in  will,  in  largeness 
of  mind  and  life,  in  absolute  simplicity,  in  determination  to  grow  each  day 
and  to  help  others  find  the  secret  of  growth  to  live  here  and  now,  in  these 


qualities  and  others  that   follow   naturally  is  to  be   found   the   key   that  un- 
locks the  door  which  guards  his  success  and  influence. 

The  main  facts  of  his  life  are  like  the  man,  small  but  important,  and 
interesting.  "Dad"  was  born  in  Searsburg,  Schuyler  County,  New  York. 
He  studied  in  the  common  schools  of  New  York  until,  in  his  sixteenth  year, 
he  began  teaching.  Two  years  later  he  entered  Starkey  Seminary,  New 
\'ork,  going  from  there  to  Union  Christian  College,  Merom,  Indiana,  where 
he  was  interrupted  in  his  Senior  year  by  sickness.  On  recovering  he  taught 
in  Indiana,  Illinois  and  New  York  for  several  years.  After  taking  a  three 
years'  course  in  free  hand,  mechanical,  pattern  and  architectual  drawing  in 
the  Rochester,  N.  Y.,  Athenaeum  and  Mechanics  Institute,  he  entered  Os- 
wego Normal  School,  and  in  his  Senior  year  his  popularity  was  manifested 
by  his  unanimous  election  to  the  presidency  of  his  class.  He  was  graduated 
with  highest  honors  in  the  classical  course  in  February,  1899.  Immediately 
after  graduating,  he  became  Assistant  Instructor  in  Science  and  Nature  Study 
at  Oswego  Normal,  retiring  from  that  position  in  September,  1899,  to  ac- 
cept the  position  as  head  of  the  Science  Department  in  the  Clarion  State 
Normal  School  Clarion,  Pennsylvania. 

Prof.  Welch  has  specialized  in  Psychology,  Pedagogy,  Science  and 
Nature  Study  and  Literature  at  Cornell,  and  the  past  summer  in  Quantitative 
and  Analytical  Chemistry,  at  University  of  Wisconsin,  Madison,  Wis.  At 
the  Clarion  State  Normal  School  he  has  built  up  the  Science  Department 
until  it  is  now  considered  to  be  one  of  the  best  in  the  state. 

Prof.  Welch  has  done  commendable  institute  work.  His  lectures  are 
instructive  and  scholarly  productions.  He  has  contributed  to  educational 
periodicals  on  scientific  and  educational  themes,  and  is  the  author  of  the 
Chemical  Laboratory  Manual  now  in  use  in  the  Clarion  Normal.  Buck- 
nell  conferred  the  degree  of  M.  S.  on  Prof.  Welch  in  1907. 

It  IS  to  that  personality,  strong,  true,  chivalrous  and  firm  that  we  pay 
our  grateful  tribute.  We  assure  you  dear  "Dad"  that  what  you  bring 
into  the  class  room  is  a  constant  stimulus  to  better  things.  We  thank  you  for 
your  friendly  interest  in  our  work  and  progress,  and  if  in  this  little  tribute 
we  have  exceeded  the  conventional  limit  of  personal  allusions,  let  our  excuse 
be  that  the  debt  we  owe  should  at  least  be  ac':nowIedged  if  it  cannot  be 
paid. 

We  meet  at  one  gate 

When  all's  over.      The  ways  they  are  many  and  wide, 

And  seldom  are  two  ways  the  same,  side  by  side. 

May  we  stand  at  the  same  little  door  when  all's  done. 

The  ways  they  are  many,  the  end  it  is  one. 

Owen  Meredith. 


Model  School 

The  first  of  the  school  year  of  1913  found  this  department  of  the 
Normal  School  under  the  charge  of  Miss  Rice,  with  Miss  Jones  and  Miss 
Klahr  as  assistant  teachers  and  supervisors.  Miss  Klahr  is  principal  of  the 
Kindergarten,  and  critic  teacher.  Miss  Jones  joined  the  faculty  of  the 
Normal  School,  the  first  of  the  year,  as  assistant  principal  of  the  Model 
School.      She  spends  a  great  part  of  her  time  in  giving  lectures  at  institutes. 

^  ou  may  ask  what  is  the  Model  School?  To  us,  as  seniors,  it  is  a 
school  of  practice,  wherein  we  strive  to  perfect  ourselves  in  the  art  of  teach- 
ing. We  here  put  to  test  what  we  have  learned  in  the  Normal,  prove  our 
capacities,  and  develop  the  qualities  which  make  most  for  future  success.  It 
is  not  exactly  what  the  name  implies.  It  is  a  model  for  anyone  wishing  to 
organize  a  school  for  children;  but  the  pupils  are  not  always  model  pupils 
and  the  teachers  are  sometimes  inclined  the  same  way. 

Besides  the  practice  teaching,  we  must  meet  the  critic  teacher,  receive 

instructions  and  go  over  our  difficulties  with  her,  both  those  which  we  have 

met  and  those  which  she  has  perceived  during  the  week.      Criticisms  by  the 

t:c  teachers  are  always  accepted  in  the  same  helpful  and  cheerful  manner 

in  which  they  are  given. 

During  the  Spring  Term  of  1912,  we  as  prospective  teachers  for  1913, 
met  Miss  Rice  every  other  day  and  were  given  lessons  in  Methods  of  Teach- 
ing, Discipline,  Cleanliness  of  school-room,  and  all  other  work  which  goes  to 
make  teaching  pleasant  and  successful.  This  was  preparation  for  our  work 
of  the  next  year  in  the  Model  School.  In  this  class,  we  were  also  required 
to  visit  the  Model  School  and  observe  the  work  going  on  there,  and  then  at 
the  next  recitation  give  the  report  of  our  observation,  and  criticize  the  work 
going  on  there.  Questions  of  discipline  were  brought  up  by  members  of  the 
class  and  discussed  by  all. 


The  work  covered  in  the  Model  School  extends  fiom  the  first  to  the  ninth 
grade  inclusive.  The  work  accomplished  is  equal  to  that  of  a  graded  city 
school.  When  a  pupil  graduates  from  the  Model,  he  is  fully  prepared  to 
enter  the  first  year  of  the  Normal  course.  He  has  had  a  start  in  Latin, 
Algebra,  and  Manual  Training,  and  therefore  need  not  start  in  the  be- 
ginning classes  in  all  the  first  year  branches.  He  can  go  on  with  the  work 
begun  in  the  Model  School  and  complete  it  more  thoroughly  in  the  Normal. 

Each  student  teacher  is  required  to  plan  his  lessons  for  a  week  in  ad- 
vance of  his  teaching.  This  plan  must  be  submitted  to  the  principal  of  the 
Model  School  for  any  criticisms  or  corrections.  In  this  way  we  know  how 
much  we  are  expected  to  do  and  how  to  do  it. 

Work  in  the  Model  School  is  like  work  of  any  kind,  some  days  every- 
thing seems  to  go  wrong,  and  we  leave  our  class  feeling  as  if  our  end  were 
near  but  probably  the  next  day  will  be  just  the  opposite.  All  in  all,  this 
department  of  school  life  is  one  of  the  most  interesting.  We  strive  to  get 
from  it  what  it  aims  to  give  us,  namely  efficiency,  morally,  mentally  and  in- 
tellectually, so  that  we  may  be  able  to  take  the  initiative  in  the  work  for 
which  we  are  training.  SamUEL  O.  Logan.

The  Music  Department 


The  lover  of  music  I  am  sure,  will  join  with  us  in  saying  that  the  course 
of  study  which  the  Music  Department  of  C.  S.  N.  S.  furnishes,  embraces  all 
that  is  necessary  in  order  to  acquire  a  thorough  technique,  artistic  interpretation, 
and  a  musical  equipment  in  its  fullest  sense. 

The  Music  Department  is  under  the  supervision  of  Miss  Mane  Senecal, 
who  is  a  graduate  of  Thomas  Normal  Training  School,  Detroit,  Mich.,  and 
Teachers'  College,  Greeley,  Col. ;  at  these  Colleges  she  has  received  the  Pd.M. 
degree.      She  also  was  a  student  of  Jennie  M.  Stoddard,  Detroit,  Mich. 

Miss  Senecal  is  rapidly  gaining  pronounced  distinction  in  her  work  here 
as  director.  She  succeeded  Miss  Margaret  Reutter  (Fitzgerald),  who  super- 
vised this  department  for  three  years  and  who  has  won  for  herself  a  name, 
both  as  teacher  and  friend. 

The  Orchestra,  which  is  conducted  by  Prof.  Rohr,  was  organized  under 
his  thorough  supervision,  and  is  now  numbered  among  the  best.  It  is  in 
great  demand  for  all  social  functions  given  by  the  school,  and  they  are  al- 
ways willing  to  respond  when  called  upon. 

One  of  the  most  recently  organized  features  in  the  music  line  is  the 
mixed  chorus.  This  formerly  was  a  Girls'  Glee  Club,  but  by  a  unanimous 
vote  It  was  decided  to  organize  a  mixed  chorus  and  the  following  officers 
were  elected:  Director,  Miss  Marie  Senecal;  President,  Susan  D.  Kribbs; 
Secretary,  Margaret  Walker.      It  now  consists  of  about  sixty  members. 

The  Senior  Double-Quartette  of  the  school  consists  of  the  following 
members:  First  Soprano  Lula  A.  Linza;  Second  Soprano,  Mildred  Weaver; 
First  Alto,  Susan  D.  Kribbs;  Second  Alto,  Julia  Fitzgerald;  First  Tenor 
Harry  A.  Zell;  Second  Tenor,  Fred  W.  Moore;  First  Bass,  George  W. 
Supplee;  Second  Bass,  W.  Ray  Smith. 

The  Mandolin  Club  consisting  of  about  twenty-five  members,  is  lead 
by  Prof.  L.  J.  Rohr.  S.  D.  K.— W.  R.  S.

First  Epistle  of  a  Music  Student 

Clarion,   Pa..  Sept.    12.    1913. 
Dear  Pa: 

I  hain't  had  no  time  to  rite  cause  we  bin  to  bizy.  i  think  i  will  like 
school  reel  wel.  The  fellows  treet  me  awful  nise.  i  guess  they  like  me  a 
whole  lot  for  they  awl  want  me  to  jine  their  socyeties.  i  think  it  is  bekaus 
I  got  that  prize  at  singing  school  at  Sfrattonville.  The  instruments  here  don't 
have  to  be  pedelcd  like  ourn  to  hum.  Only  the  one  in  the  music  studio  she 
always  pedels  it  awl  the  time.  It  is  the  funniest  thing  the  wa  she  pedels 
and  thumps.  Reminds  me  of  our  old  thrashin  mashine  that  time  the  rail  fence 
got  started  to  going  there.  Yesterday  she  was  plain  somethin  that  he  said 
was  a  show  pin  waltz,  i  just  forgot  and  yelled, — "that  mashine  will  break 
if  you  don't  stop  that  bloomin  injine  this  minit."  Wall  i  new  when  i  sed  it 
that  1  orter  not.      But  you  no  i  run  our  injine  so  long  i  just  forgot. 

She  asked  me  yisterday  if  i  wanted  to  take  hominy,  i  sed.  "if  you 
please,"  jist  like  you  told  me  to  sa  when  the  preacher  kame.  Wall  you  no 
i  used  to  like  that  hominy  that  ma  uesd  to  make,  and  i  tho't  i  could  eat  a  hole 
plate  ful  cause  i  haint  had  none  sence  i  bin  up  heer.  Wall  my  mouth  wuz  jist 
waterin  and  heer  he  ment  harmony,  i  am  so  humsick  to  day.  This  mornin 
when  i  went  intu  the  konservation  somethin  was  the  matter  with  the  furnase 
and  the  rum  was  jist  ful  of  smoke.  Wall  i  set  down  and  it  jist  seemed  like 
i  was  in  our  smoke-house  to  hum.  It  jist  seemed  like  i  kood  see  that  wite 
pig  hanging  up  thar  and  i  just  sot  down  and  kried  big  as  i  am — six  feet  in 
them  red  yarn  socks  with  the  green  patches  on,  you  no. 

My  face  is  broosed  a  little  now.  It  looks  like  my  stif  hat  did  the  time 
that  fat  womin  set  on  it.  When  I  was  takin  my  music  leson  yisterday. 
The  director  wuz  killin  some  flies  that  wuz  goin  after  another  wun  when  it 
lit  on  my  cheek.  The  next  thing  i  new  i  wuz  sprawling  on  the  floor  and 
there  wuz  a  fly  smashed  in  a  blak  and  blu  spot  on  my  fase,  the  fly  was  ded 
I  guess. 

I  am  so  humsik  i  guess  i  wont  rite  any  more.  When  you  eel  the  pump- 
kins send  me  that  money  please.      Good-by  rite  soon. 

Your  loving  son, 
Ralph  Waldo  Emerson  Squashseed.

One  of  the  principal  characteristics  of  school  life  at  Clarion  is  the  interest  which  is 
taken  in  the  Christian  Association  work.  The  faculty  and  students  do  not  allow  the  cul- 
tivation of  the  intellectual  side  of  their  lives  to  become  of  more  importance  than  the  spirit- 
ual; they  feel  that  only  in  this  they  may  become  really  useful  men  and  women. 

On,  March  13,  1912,  the  officers  of  the  Association  for  the  year  '12  and  '13  were 
installed.      At  this  time  they  made  their  plans  for  the  opening  of  the  Spring  Term. 

At  the  opening  of  each  term  the  ^'.  M.  C.  A.  takes  upon  itself  the  duties  most 
naturally  suited  to  such  an  organization.  The  first  Saturday  evening  of  each  term,  the 
Y.  M.  and  Y.  W.  C.  A.  have  a  joint  reception  for  faculty  and  students  in  order  that 
those  who  are  unacquainted  may  meet  the  teachers  and  older  students. 

The  Association  holds  meetings  in  Music  Hall  on  Wednesday  evening  of  each 
week.  Each  meeting  is  conducted  by  some  member  of  the  Association.  In  these  meet- 
ings, freedom  of  thought,  prayer  and  song  make  each  fellow  feel  at  home. 

The  Associations  have  been  very  fortunate  this  year  in  having  occasionally  special 
leaders  for  the  Sunday  evening  meetings.  Exceedingly  helpful  addresses  were  given  by 
the  ministers  of  the  town.  Among  other  addresses  especially  helpful  were  "Paul  at 
Athens,"  given  by  Dr.  Harry  M.  Shafer;  "Go,  speak  to  that  young  man,"  by  Dr. 
Ballentine;  "Be  thou  an  ensample,"  by  Prof.  W.  Y.  Welch;  "Youth  and  old  age,  " 
by  Prof.  W.  R.  Egbert;  and  "Come,  let  us  reason  together,"  by  Prof.  S.  E.  Acor. 

Another  great  help  to  our  Association  was  the  valuable  instruction  and  inspiration 
given  us  by  our  new  State  Student  Secretary,  Evan  W.  Thomas,  who  visited  us  on 
December  13,  1912.  He  showed  us  that  a  conscientious  Christian  life  was  worth  while. 
The  Association  sent  Chas.  Neale  to  the  Presidents'  Conference  at  Carlisle  during  the 
first  part  of  the  year.  On  February  17,  1913,  the  Association  sent  as  delegates  to  the 
Y.  M.  C.  A.  Convention  at  Williamsport,  Mr.  Herman  G.  Schrecongost,  Mr.  Hayes  E. 
Shellito  and  Mr.  Harry  A.  Zell.  The  delegates  brot  from  the  Convention  a  very  in- 
spiring report. 

During  the  latter  part  of  the  year,  the  spiritual  life  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  was  quick- 
ened. Many  gave  their  lives  to  Christ  and  united  with  the  church  of  their  preference. 
For  the  success  of  the  revival  meetings  the  Association  is  largely  indebted  to  Dr.  Ballen- 
tine, Prof.  Wilkinson,  Prof.  Acor  and  Mr.  Harry  Arnold.  Our  Association  has  been 
very  fortunate  in  electing  and  selecting  the  members  of  its  Cabinet  for  the  ensuing  year. 

On  the  whole  this  has  been  a  good  year  in  our  Association,  and  judging  by  the 
past,  we  may  even  hope  for  better  things  in  the  future.  C.  H.  N.

The  Young  Women's  Christian  Association  is  an  organization  which  aims  to  ad- 
vance the  social  ancJ  religious  life  of  the  young  women  of  the  school.  It  brings  the  girls 
into  closer  relationship  with  each  other  and  makes  each  one  feel  that  some  one  has  a 
personal  interest  in  her. 

At  the  beginning  of  each  term,  the  Association  endeavors  to  make  the  new  girls 
feel  "at  home  "  and  joins  with  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  in  giving  a  reception  where  the  new 
students  meet  both  the  old  students  and  the  faculty.  The  Association  continues  to 
take  an  active  part  in  the  social  life  of  the  school  throughout  the  year,  keeping  always 
before  the  student  the  highest  standard  of  social  life. 

Each  Wednesday  evening  a  devotional  service  is  held;  each  meeting  is  led  by  a 
member  of  the  Association.  On  Sunday  morning,  a  song  service  is  held  in  the  Chapel, 
being  conducted  by  a  member  of  the  Y.  M.  or  Y.  W.  These  services  have  proved  to 
be  very  helpful  and  inspiring  to  the  students.  Each  Sunday  evening  the  Y.  M.  C.  A. 
and  Y.  W.  C.  A.  have  joint  meetings,  which  are  held  in  the  Chapel.  The  meetings 
are  usually  led  by  a  student,  but  occasionally  the  different  ministers  of  the  town  or  some 
other  prominent  speaker,  addresses  the  meeting.  During  the  year  the  Association  has 
observed,  aside  from  the  regular  meetings,  "The  Week  of  Prayer"  in  November,  and 
"The  Students  Day  of  Prayer"  in  February. 

As  our  Association  is  a  member  of  the  National  ^'.  W.  C.  A.,  we  were  entitled  to  a 
visit  of  the  Territorial  Student  Secretary,  Miss  Eleanor  Richardson,  who  brought  to 
us  the  results  of  experience  in  other  Associations  that  helped  us  to  solve  our  local 
problems. 

In  June,  1912,  the  Association  sent  Lulu  Linza  and  Mary  Jones  to  a  Summer 
Conference  at  Eagle  Mere,  Pa.  In  February,  1913,  Miriam  Mcllhatten  and  Mabel 
Barloo  were  sent  as  delegates  to  a  convention  at  Pittsburgh.  At  these  conventions,  the 
girls  meet  other  Association  Workers  and  receive  suggestions  and  new  ideas  from  the 
instructors.  They  return  to  the  school  inspired  to  do  better  and  more  efficient  work  for 
their  own  Association.  L.   A.   L.

Art 

The  whole  world  without  art  and  dress. 
Would  be  but  one  great  wilderness. 

And  mankind  but  a  savage  herd, 
For  all  that  nature  has  conferred; 

This  does  but  roughen  and  design. 

Leaves  art  to  polish  and  refine. 

—Buller. 

It  is  always  true  that  where  a  number  of  ambitious  young  people  are 
gathered  together  in  the  interest  of  education,  there  are  those  who  seek  to 
give  some  tangible  or  concrete  form  to  their  appreciation  of  the  beautiful. 

Every  human  being  has  implanted  in  him  a  love  of  beauty  and  at  some 
time  or  other  wishes  that  he  could  express  it  in  a  manner  suitable  to  the  sub- 
ject. It  was  in  response  to  the  desire  of  a  number  of  students  that  the  Art 
Department  of  C.  S.  N.  S.  was  created  under  the  able  and  efficient  super- 
vision of  Miss  Lorena  Givan,  who  is  herself  a  talented  artist.  The  longings 
of  these  young  people  were  encouraged  and  directed  into  the  proper  channel 
until  ideas  bloomed  into  scenes  of  beauty  such  as  landscapes,  green  hills,  wind, 
ing  rivers,  animals  and  flowers. 

TTie  Greeks  believe  that  all  that  was  beautiful  was  good.  Certainly 
it  is  true.  In  portraying  scenes  of  beauty,  the  artist's  mind  has  been  filled 
with  thoughts  higher  and  nobler  than  those  of  every  day  life.  Purer  aspira- 
tions and  ideals  have  been  implanted.  Who  can  measure  the  infinite  good 
accomplished  by  such  a  means? 

Every  Monday  morning  when  the  bell  announces  ten  o'clock,  a  little 
band  of  artisans  gather  in  Miss  Givan's  class-room.  There,  freed  from 
thoughts  of  every  day  life  found  pleasure  in  the  pursuit  of  the  delightful 
vocation,  painting  and  drawing.  Here  we  entered,  not  with  fear  and  trem- 
bling, for  harmony  and  peace  reigned  there.  We  were  always  sure  of  the 
sympathetic  understanding  of  a  patient  and  interested  artist. 

We  shall  never  be  able  to  fullv  appreciate  the  help  derived  from  it. 
Who,  indeed,  can  estimate  the  possibilities  of  a  -nind  ennobled  by  high 
thoughts,  coupled  with  determination  to  succeed. 

And  as  we  close  our  work  here,  we  can  only  feel  glad  that  we  have 
grasped  the  opportunity  as  it  has  inspired  us  to  higher  achievements.

Football 

Our  athletic  field,  which  was  much  improved  during  the  summer  by  a 
fence,  grand-stand  and  bleachers,  was  first  initiated  by  the  yelling  and  plung- 
ing of  the  enthusiastic  gridiron  warriors,  lead  by  Captain  Snyder.  After  a 
few  days  some  of  these  same  warriors,  failing  to  make  the  varsity,  became 
discouraged  and  failed  to  appear  at  practice.  Thus  they  left  the  varsity 
to  develop  themselves,  without  any  resistance.  With  this  handicap  the  varsity 
had  the  wonderful  record  of  losing  only  one  game  and  it  was  the  fast  DuBois 
High  School  that  made  them  bow  their  heads.  G.  S.

Basket  Ball 

In  the  middle  of  November  Coach  Carson  and  Captain  Beatty  called 
out  the  candidates  for  basket  ball.  About  thirty  candidates  responded,  in- 
cluding four  men  of  last  year's  varsity.  Out  of  this  material,  one  of  the 
fastest  teams  that  ever  represented  the  school,  was  developed.  They  started 
their  schedule  on  Thanksgiving  by  defeating  the  fast  Alumni  team.  After 
having  a  taste  for  victory  they  were  not  satisfied  until  they  had  captured  five 
consecutive  games.      The  following  is  a  record  of  the  team  in  detail:

Coach   McCauley 

Baseball 

Never  before  has  the  season  opened  with  such  bright  prospects  as  this 
coming  season.  There  are  seven  men  of  last  year's  varsity  left  and  several 
new  men  that  are  showing  varsity  form.  About  forty  candidates  responded 
for  the  first  practice  which  consisted  of  light  throwing  and  fielding.  Along 
with  Coach  Carson,  the  school  has  secured  the  services  of  Harry  McCauley, 
a  former  Grove  City  star  athlete.  These  two  men  are  working  hard  to  de- 
velop one  of  the  fastest  teams  that  ever  represented  C.  S.  N.  S.  The  first 
game  of  our  schedule  of  ten  games  opens  on  April  i  9,  at  home,  with  the  fast 
DuBois  H.  S.  team.

Tennis,  among  the  other  sports,  is  an 
enthusiastic  feature  of  the  school.  When 
the  call  is  made  for  students  to  join  the 
tennis  association,  the  enthusiasm  is  then 
shown  by  the  large  number  that  responds. 

The  tennis  courts  are  as  good  as  can 
be  found  in  any  school  and  are  three  in 
number,  with  the  possibility  of  adding 
two  more.  Clarion  has  produced  some 
fine  tennis  players  and  has  participated 
in  several  tournaments  with  other  Nor- 
mals. Although  they  have  not  won  any 
special  laurels,  they  have  been  spurred 
on  to  play  a  clean  game,  and  fight  to  the 
finish. 

This  year  the  tournament  is  to  be  held 
at  Clarion,  and  we  all  are  looking  for- 
ward for  our  Alma  Mater  to  win.  In 
all  of  our  sports  we  have  the  cooperation 
of  the  faculty.  As  long  as  true  sports- 
manship IS  our  ideal,  nothing  but  success 
can  be  the  returns  of  our  athletics. 


Gymnasium 


The  girl's  physical  training  work  of  the  Fall  term  of  '12  was  under  the  instruction  of 
Mary  E.  Boyce.  After  finishing  her  term's  work  successfully,  on  account  of  her  health 
she  was  permitted  to  leave  C.  S.  N.  S.,  and  return  home. 

Two  weeks  after  the  opening  of  the  Winter  term.  Miss  Mary  Murray,  from  the 
New  England  Frontier,  came.  She  took  up  the  work  which  showed  its  results  at  the  end 
of  the  term  in  the  annual  public  demonstration  of  the  Physical  Training  Department. 
The  Senior  girls'  numbers  on  the  program  were  carried  out  well.  The  Lantern  Drill 
was  the  most  picturesque,  the  Spanish  Dance  the  most  active  and  graceful,  the  Country 
Dance  showed  the  pleasure  and  fun  connected  with  the  work,  and  lastly  may  be  men- 
tioned the  Dumb  Bell  Drill  which  showed  the  accurateness  and  form  by  which  the  work 
has  been  carried  on. 

Great  has  been  the  Gymnasium  work  so  far  in  the  formerly  constituted  room,  but 
how  great  the  work  will  be  in  the  future,  in  the  long  promised  "New  Gymnasium"  can 
not  be  realized  in  the  minds  of  the  '13  Seniors.

Bancroft  History 


In  talking  of  the  various  good  things  of  C.  S.  N.,  the  Bancroft  Literary  Society 
stands  out  as  one  of  the  noblest  and  best  organizations  of  our  school.  There  being  but 
two  literary  societies,  gives  each  one  half  the  number  of  enrolled  students,  and  after  a  stu- 
dent is  chosen  a  member  of  one,  he  at  once  begins  to  show  his  willingness  to  further  the 
work  of  his  society. 

Every  literary  organization  would  be  valueless  without  having  a  noble  aim,  and  the 
Bancroft  Society  is  not  lacking  there.  The  chief  aim  of  this  organization  is  to  give  each 
member  the  opportunity  to  improve  his  literary  ability  and  to  become  more  self-confident. 

The  average  number  of  Bancroft  meetmgs  each  term  is  six,  and  the  meetings  this  year 
have  been  most  helpful  and  entertaining.  Each  programme  is  arranged  by  a  committee, 
which  is  composed  of  eight  students  and  one  member  of  the  faculty,  and  is  arranged 
in  such  a  way  as  to  be  of  literary  value  as  well  as  a  form  of  diversion. 

Time  and  space  will  not  permit  the  mention  of  all  the  excellent  programs  which  have 
been  given  by  the  Bancrofters  throughout  the  year.  The  year  1913  has  spelled  "Good 
Luck"  instead  of  "Bad  Luck,"  and  the  Bancrofters  work  on  in  their  increased  strength 
and  courage.  We  started  in  life  with  high  aims,  and  no  obstacle  has  been  formidable 
enough  to  turn  us  from  the  paths  by  which  we,  the  Bancrofters,  chose  to  advance  our 
society  to  its  goal.

Franklin  History 


When  we  hear  the  name  Frankhn,  it  at  once  brings  before  us  an  image 
of  Benjamin  Frankhn,  and  brings  to  our  memory  his  hfe  and  character.  He 
for  whom  our  society  is  named,  should  be  one  of  our  ideal  lives,  and  who, 
by  the  study  of  his  life  should  help  us  to  reach  our  highest  ideal.  Since  our 
society  is  named  for  him,  we  must  each  one  be  a  Franklin,  and  to  be  a  Frank- 
lin, we  must  know  some  of  his  traits  of  character,  and  some  of  the  things  he 
did  for  the  world,  for  our  nation,  and  for  us  individually. 

The  aims  of  the  Frankhn  Literary  Society  are,  first,  to  develop  original- 
ity; second,  to  give  practice  in  appearing  before  an  audience;  third,  to  acquaint 
its  members  with  Parliamentary  rules  and  the  proper  procedure  in  a  business 
meeting. 

The  programs  are  under  the  supervision  of  the  faculty,  and  are  generally 
arranged  so  as  to  present  one  theme,  such  as  art,  travel,  or  literature. 

It  would  be  impossible  to  tell  of  all  the  interesting  and  successful  pro- 
grams that  have  been  rendered,  for  to  mention  would  necessitate  the  men- 
tion of  many. 

The  work  of  the  Society  closes  each  year  with  a  contest.  At  the  present 
time  the  Franklin  and  the  Bancroft  Societies  have  the  same  number  of  points, 
won  in  the  different  contests.  When  next  the  societies  meet  at  the  close  of 
the  Spring  term  of  1913,  the  leadrship  for  the  ensuing  year  will  be  de- 
termined. 

The  Franklin  Society,  under  her  colors.  Purple  and  White,  hopes  to 
continue  the  excellent  work  done  in  the  past  and  to  become  a  more  vital  part 
of  the  student's  life.

The  Lost  Valentine 

It  was  tlic  evening  of  the  thirteenth  of  February.  In  a  room  in  the  The  Girl's  Semi- 
nary in  the  little  town  of  K ,  Mary  Elliott,  a  bright  young  student  of  the  institution 

with  her  mouth  full  ol  hair  pins  was  busily  engaged  in  trying  to  arrange  her  mass  of  hair 
into  some  sort  of  decency.  She  was  interrupted  in  the  midst  of  the  proceedings,  for  the 
seventeenth  time  only,  by  a  loud  rap  at  the  door.  Dropping  all  her  hair  pins  in  order 
to  say  "Come,  "  she  was  surprised  to  see  the  maid  enter  with  "A  package  for  Miss  Elliot. 

In  her  excitement  she  entirely  forgot  the  delicate  task  which  she  had  hitherto  been 
performing.  She  wondered  what  the  package  could  be.  Perhaps  a  box  of  home-made 
candy  or  a  cake  or  what  might  it  not  be.  One  never  can  tell  what  all  a  package  may 
contain.  Alas,  however,  for  human  hopes!  On  unwrapping  the  package  she  found 
only  a  book  and  a  prosaic  one  at  that  which  she  had  lent  lo  her  friend,  John  Hastings, 
a  few  days  previous. 

Thoroughly  disgusted  with  herself  for  wasting  so  much  valuable  time  in  speculation 
as  to  the  contents  of  the  package,  she  tossed  the  book  on  the  table,  which  though 
usually  piled  high  had  one  corner  unoccupied,  and  again  resumed  the  arduous  task  of 
combing  her  hair.  At  last  she  was  through  and  seating  herself  in  the  one  comfortable 
chair  the  Seminary  afforded,  she  began  wondering  what  kind  of  valentines  the  following 
day  would  bring. 

Of  course  there  would  be  one  from  John  Hastings.  Hadn't  she  known  him  ever 
since  she  sat  opposite  him  in  the  fourth  grade  and  used  to  pass  across  candy,  wrapped  up 
in  untidy  notes?.  Thru  all  their  childhood  days  he  had  never  yet  failed  to  send  her  a 
valentine.  Now  he  was  a  gay,  sentimental  youth,  who  had  grown  entirely  too  ob- 
streperous for  the  quiet  old  people  to  endure  any  longer,  as  a  result  his  parents  had  decided 
lo  send  him  lo  a  Military  Academy  also  in  K . 

On  consulting  John  as  to  whether  he  was  willing  to  go,  they  found  he  had  no  ob- 
jections whatever  to  changing  his  abode  from  the  quiet  country  village  to  the  lively  and 
attractive  town.  Not  least  among  the  many  desirable  attractions  of  this  place  was  his 
close  proximity  to  Mary. 


Mother  Hastings  had  doubtless  overlooked  the  fact  that  her  little  boy  had  grown 
to  be  a  handsome,  strapping,  young  man  who  might  prove  himself  popular  in  the  military 
academy,  likewise  in  the  Ladies'  Seminary.  One  day  while  calling  on  Mary  at  the 
Seminary,  their  conversation  had  turned  to  books.  He  was  very  fond  of  reading  and  she 
had  very  generously  offered  to  loan  him  a  book  which  belonged  to  her  next  door  neighbor, 
Margaret  Edison.      This  was  the  book  that  John  had  so  carefully  returned. 

Late  in  the  evening  in  walked  Maragret  for  a  friendly  call  and  as  she  was  leaving, 
she  noticed  her  book  on  the  table.  Thinking  it  would  ease  the  table  a  trifle  of  its  already 
heavy  load,  she  picked  up  her  book  and  carried  it  home  with  her.  But  the  book  was  the 
bearer  of  that  expected  valentine.  Instead  of  sending  one  under  separate  cover,  John 
had  written  a  very  sentimental  little  note  and  put  it  in  the  book  when  he  sent  it  back  and 
so  the  valentine  reached  the  wrong  destination.  Accidentally  opening  the  book  that  even- 
ing, perhaps  to  see  what  kind  of  a  "Goop"  had  used  it,  Margaret's  eyes  fell  upon  the 
valentine.      To  M.  E. 

In  very,  very  olden  times 

When  Ancient  Rome  was  new, 

'Tis  said  that  sweethearts  drew  by  lot 

To  find  a  sweetheart  true. 

Enclosed,  dear  love,  your  lot  you'll  find 

The  numbei  23. 

And  Oh,  I  pray  the  fates  be  kind 

And  cast  your  lot  with  me. 

Margaret  knew  as  soon  as  she  opened  that  note  that  it  was  intended  for  Mary  mstead 
of  herself  but  she  thought  it  would  be  a  good  joke  to  answer  it  by  return  mail.  John  re- 
ceived the  following — 

Oh,  yes,  dear  heart 

I   will  be  kind. 

I'll  cast  my  lot  with  you. 

And  as  my  number  you  must  know 

You'll  find  it  62. 

Valentine's  Day  dawned  bright  and  clear,  bringing  plenty  of  valentines  for  Mary 
but  still  she  was  not  satisfied.  The  one  she  had  been  so  certain  of  had  not  arrived.  She 
thought  perhaps  it  had  dropped  out  unnoticed  from  among  the  numerous  valentines  which 
the  teacher  had  been  compelled  to  sort  that  morning.  So  she  went  up  to  that  worthy  and 
inquired  whether  a  letter  or  package  for  her  had  not  been  mislaid.  The  reply  came  in 
short  and  thundering  accents,  "No."  Returning  to  her  room,  very  sadly  she  spent  the  rest 
of  the  evening  in  weeping  and  lashing  mankind  in  general.      However,  every  dark  cloud 


has  a  silver  lining,  and  the  following  evening,  being  recrealon  evening,  John  joyfully  called 
at  the  Seminary  and  rang  Mary's  number.  Mary  went  down  very  reluctantly  and  even 
halted  altogether  for  a  few  seconds  on  the  last  step.  But  gaining  courage,  she  soon  found 
herself  in  the  parlor  confronting  her  lover.  With  a  confident  smile,  he  at  once  began 
to  thank  her  for  the  happmcss  she  had  given  by  answering  his  valentine  the  way  she  had 
and  assured  her  thai  he  would  do  l,is  best  to  keep  her  from  ever  regretling  what  she  had 
said. 

During  this  speech,  Mary  stood  like  a  Sphinx.  "What  could  he  mean,"  she  won- 
dered. "He  surely  must  have  lost  his  reason."  The  room  was  filled  with  happy  couijles 
and  it  seemed  that  every  eye  was  riveted  on  her,  including  those  of  the  vigilant  and  evet 
present  preceptress,  who  was  always  on  hand  to  preserve  decorum,  so  an  outburst  of 
wrath  was  impossible.  At  last  composing  herself,  she  replied,  "I  ieceived  no  valentine 
from  you  and  further  I  didn't  send  you  any.      Please  explain  yourself.  " 

John  began  that  difficult  task  of  trying  to  explain  himself  and  at  last  produced  the 
note.  Mary  at  once  recognized  the  writing  but  didn't  think  of  the  book  and  couldn't 
understand  hew  Margaret  had  outwitted  her. 

Prior  to  this,  Margaret  had  been  seated  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  room,  entertaining 
a  young  man.  But  since  Ma'^y's  entrance,  she  had  kept  up  a  constant  giggle  without  any 
apparent  cause.      Her  friend  marveled  at  this  but  said  nothing. 

When  she  saw  things  were  not  progressing  very  well  on  the  other  side  of  the  house, 
she  excused  herselt  Ircm  her  friend  and  soon  explained  things  to  the  satisfaction  of  both 
John  and  Mary.  Mary  was  so  happy  that  she  readily  forgave  Margaret  and  gave  John 
such  a  satisfactory  answer  that  the  next  day  that  irrepressible  youth  sent  Mother  Hastings 
the  following  message: 

Please  wish  me  joy,  oh  Mother  Mine, 
For  sweetest  Mistress  Mary 
Is  now  my  own  dear  Valentine 
And  is  no  more  contrary. 

Rennie  McFadden. 


Dramatics 


The  Department  of  Dramatics  has  been  one  of  great  interest  to  the  Clarion  Normal 
School.  Last  year  and  this  year  will  long  be  remembered  as  memorable  ones  by  the 
Senior  Class  of  1913.  The  growth  and  development  of  the  Dramatics  are  due  to  the 
eminent  directing  of  Miss  Mina  Decker,  a  graduate  of  Emerson  College  of  Oratory. 

Our  first  attempts  at  any  work  of  this  kind  were  in  the  Literary  Societies  and  Public 
Speaking  Class.  It  was  on  Tuesday  evening,  February  20,  1912,  when  about  fifty  of 
the  Middle  Year  Class  presented  the  Operetta,  "Miss  Bob  White,"  to  the  student  body 
and  Faculty.  The  Operetta  was  a  success  in  every  particular;  the  music  was  excellent; 
tlie  dancing  and  acting  were  of  exceptional  merit.  So  well  was  the  Operetta  given  that 
it  was  repeated  by  request,  a   few  nights  later. 

One  lime  in  the  year  which  is  well  remembered  by  the  students.  Faculty  and  Alumni, 
respectively,  is  Thanksgiving,  if  for  no  other  reason  than  the  Senior  Class  Play,  which 
is  always  given  Thanksgiving  evening.  This  year,  Ingomar,  the  Barbarian,  a  play  in  five 
acts,  by  Frederick  Halm,  was  given.  The  scene  is  in  Gaul,  a  century  after  the  founding 
of  Massilia  by  the  Phoenicians.      The  cast  of  characters  is  as  follows:

The  synopsis  of  the  play  is  as  follows: 

Act  I. 

Poiydor,  a  selfish,  conceited,  avaricious  merchant  of  Massilia,  desires  to  wed 
Parthenia.  daughter  of  Actea  and  Myron,  a  poor  armorer.  She  spurns  him  and  his  offer. 
Myron  is  captured  by  the  Allemanni  who  demands  silver  for  his  ransom.  Unable  to 
meet  their  demands,  Parthenia  then  offers  herself  to  Poiydor,  if  he  will  ransom  her  father. 
He.  in  a  spirit  of  revenge,  refuses. 

Act  II. 

Parthenia  goes  in  search  of  her  father.  She  is  taken  by  a  band  of  the  Allemanni  to 
the  camp  of  their  chief.  Ingomar,  where  she  is  accepted  as  hostage  for  Myron  until  he 
can  earn  and  pay  the  required  ransom. 

Act  III. 

Ingomar  slowly  and  reluctantly  realizes  that  love  is  an  all-conquering  power.  Alle- 
manni plan  to  sell  Parthenia  as  a  slave.  Plot  fails.  Ingomar  grants  Parthenia  her  free- 
dom and  conducts  her  to  Massilia. 

Act  IV. 

Ingomar  relinquishes  his  forest  freedom  for  Greek  civilization  and  becomes  a  citizen 
of  Massilia. 

Act  V. 

The  Allemanni  are  on  the  warpath  against  the  Allobrogi.  Massilia's  citizens,  fear- 
ing that  they  are  coming  to  attack  them,  desire  Ingomar  to  find  out  the  secrets  of  their 
camp.  He  refuses.  Is  accused  of  being  a  spy.  Assumes  the  bondage  of  slavery  to 
cancel  Myron's  debt  to  Poiydor.  Shows  that  the  expedition  comes  in  peace.  Timarch 
discharges  the  debt.  Banishes  Poiydor  from  the  city,  and  grants  Ingomar  lands,  title, 
and   Parthenia   for  his  wife. 

Miss  Ruth  Russell,  as  Parthenia,  the  Massilian  Armorer's  daughter,  was  the  living 
impersonation  of  lovely  girlhood  and  thoroughly  won  her  audience  in  her  denunciation 
of  the  sordid  miser  Poiydor. 

Miss  Janet   Haught,   as  Actea.  played  with  dignity  and  poise. 

Fulfilling  the  part  cf  Timarch  without  acting.  Mr.  Smith,  by  his  voice,  carriage. 
sustaining  grand  manner,  was  perfectly  suited  to  the  part  and  without  a  shade  of  overacting. 

The  most  earnest  concentration  appeared  in  the  part  of  Myron,  the  harrassed. 
complaining  old  armorer,  developed  by  Charles  Neale ;  and  in  the  character  of  Poiydor. 
the   ugly   miser,   as   developed  by   Mr.   Wesley   Ogden. 

Mr.  George  Washington  Supplee  had  many  qualifications  for  his  part  aside  from 
the  required  stature,  among  which  were  his  unvarying  ease,  fluency  and  flexibility  of 
expression.  Ingomar  radiates  the  magnetism  of  a  primitive,  untrained  nature,  masterful 
and  full  of  power,  yet  equally  responsive  to  gentle  influences. 

It  isn't  at  all  doubtful  but  that  in  a  few  years  from  now.  when  reading  the  names 
of  prominent  actors  and  actresses  of  the  day.  many  of  the  above  mentioned  will  be  found.

Midnight  at  a  Normal 


L.ong  hours  of  hard  work  with  hltlc  rest  become  monotonous,  and  often  result 
in  illness.  This  is  most  frequently  found  in  the  school  life.  Fortunately  the  laws  ol 
nature  made  provisions  whereby  every  one  murt  look  after  his  own  individual  self. 

Since  we  all  know  that  a  club  with  a  goc.l  commander  at  its  head  can  do  more  and 
better  work  than  if  it  were  not  organized,  we  Jjcided  to  form  into  an  organized  body. 
This  was  first  taken  up  in  the  early  Fall  of  1912,  and  at  the  first  meeting  it  was  further 
decided  that  each  catastrophe  should  be  given  at  or  near  midnight. 

The  first  affair  of  importance  occurred  about  the  middle  part  of  the  Fall  term. 
This  was  given  under  the  name  of  the  sheet  parade.  Doors  were  thrown  open  and  even 
the  town's  people  helped  to  furnish  enjoyment  to  the  band  of  bravados. 

As  time  rolled  on  and  our  studies  again  became  arduous;  another  game  was  listed, 
entitled    "Normal    Olympic   Games"   or   better   known    as   "Bowling  in   the   Hall." 

Both  of  these  aforementioned  sports  met  with  great   favor    (among  the  boys). 

Renewed  by  their  enjoyment,  each  student  worked  with  double  zeal  for  some  time. 
Then  as  the  term  was  nearly  spent  it  was  decided  that  one  last  final  exercise  should  be 
given  in  honor  of  the  fast  flying  old  year.  This  was  a  musical  contest,  as  it  were,  and 
was  called  "The  Tin-Horn  Minstrel."  It  was  fully  enjoyed  by  every  boy  in  the 
Dormitory  with  the  exception  of  a  few  sallow  sleepy-heads  who  had  come  from  the 
farm  lands,  who  had  as  yet  not  learned  what  school  life  meant. 

A  few  of  the  faculty  who  preferred  rest  instead  of  indulging  in  youthful  enjoyment 
were  awakened  by  the  charming  music  and  afterwards  were  found  in  some  dark  corner 
trembling  as  they  feared  that  Gabriel  had  come  to  bear  them  across  the  river  Jordan  to 
their  future  homes.  The  long  night  dragged  on  and  the  gladdened  hearts  at  the  first  dawn 
of  the  morning  were  found  at  their  windows  trying  to  survey  what  great  disaster  had 
occurred  during  the  night.  As  no  signs  of  any  terrible  fate  could  be  found  it  was  decided 
that  the  club  gave  another  rally  and  this  was  made  more  clear  when  the  band  marched 
out,  each  musician,  with  a  smile  across  that  part  of  his  face  which  is  most  used.  Every- 
one reported  a  fine  time  at  the  minstrels,  but  unfortunately  it  was  not  all  over.  As  the 
day  wore  on  Doctors  were  called  to  administer  to  the  sick,  classes  refused  to  meet  and 
groups  of  boys  were  stationed  in  every  corner  expressing  their  enjoyment  of  the  previous 
night. 

The  faculty,  recovering  from  their  great  fright,  were  coming  forth  from  their 
hiding  places,  with  white  faces,  to  behold  another  real  day  and  furthermore  to  bear 
down  vengeance. 

As  the  clock  slowly  ticked  away  the  hours,  many  a  brave  fearless  man  was  made 
to  quake  as  he  felt  his  feet  touch  gently  the  green  carpet  which  he  had  been  warned  by 
his  former  schoolmates  never  to  tread  upon. 

Alas,  the  great  day  was  over,  and  the  victory  was  won.  A  record  was  made  which 
will  go  down  in  history  for  many  centuries  which  fathers  will  tell  to  their  sons  and  to 
their  sons'  sons.

Olympian  Games 

The  bad  boys  in  Steven's  Hall 

Have  quite  a  taste  for  bowling. 

One  night  they  got  five  balls 

And  started  them  a  rolling. 

'Twas  shortly  after  midnight 
On  a  still  October  morn. 

I  ne'er  had  so  great  a  fright 

Since  the  day  that  I  was  born. 

That  a  plot  was  formed  we  know 
For  rolling  them  at  that  time; 

Cause,  Oh  My!   how  they  did  go. 
And  they  made  a  lovely  chime. 

The  ones  who  did  the  bowling 

Have  never  as  yet  been  found. 

For   they   were  not   sent   rolling 

Till  the  Profs,  were  sleeping  sound. 

If  you  wish  to  learn  this  game 

Just  come  in  to  Steven's  Hall 

The  bowlers  have  won  great  fame. 
For  they  are  the  best  of  all. 


Logan  Woodwakd. 


She  Knew  the  Game 


He  made  a  good  "fair  tackle" 
"First  down  and  one  to  gain,"  cried    he, 
As  he  dropped  right  down  beside  her 
Upon   the  broad  settee. 

"I'm  'umpire'  for  this  game." 
The  blushing  maid  replied; 
"The  "play  had  not  been  started' 
So  I'll  call  you  'off  side'." 

"Now  I  think  that's  unfair; 
You  do  not  know  the  rules; 
That  play  belongs  to  a  series 
Used  in  our  college  schools." 

"Don't   try   to   kid   the   umpire." 
Quick  spoke  the  maid  demure, 
"^  our  play's  not  in  the  rule  book; 
I'll  look  to  be  quite  sure." 

Said  he,  "I  made  a  'fair  catch,' 

So  what's  the  use  of  scolding. 

"Young^  man,"  quoth  she,  "if  you  don't  watch, 

Vou'l'  gpt  'pena'ized   for  holding.  " 


The  Tin  Horn  Minstrel 


All  the  world  is  wrapped  in  stillenss. 

There  is  darkness  everywhere. 
Everything  is  resting  sweetly. 

Save  some  mischief  here  and  there. 

The  night  is  cold,  and  dark,  and  dreary; 

And  the  wind  is  silent,  too. 
It  is  nearly  Christmas  season. 

For  the   frost   replaces  dew. 

Hark!  Then  some  sudden  rustle. 

Then  the  hall  lights  cease  to  shine. 
While  the  rustle  grows  to  murmur. 

Some  one  whispers  down  the  line. 

Boys  be  ready,  hold  your  spirit. 

Soon  the  clock  will  tell  the  time. 
Don't  get  frightened,  keep  your  spirit. 

And  peal  forth  your  merry  chime. 

Now  I  hear  the  town  clock  striking 

In  the  quiet  midnight  air. 
Twelve  sharp  strokes  are  heard  \ibrating. 

Then  the  hall  is  all  astir. 

Hark!  Then  a  tm-horn  is  squeaking 

In  a  corner  far  remote. 
Then,  I  hear  the  concert  starting 

In   sharps,   in   flats,   and   other  notes'. 

The  boys  fly,  the  Profs,  are  coming. 

Lock  vour  door,  and  sober  down. 
If  you're  caught  you'll     tread  green  carpet. 

And  perhaps  you'll  leave  the  town. 

Alas!  Alas!  In  all  their  glory. 

Two  were  caught  that  very  night. 
They  departed  on  the  morrow. 

Spite  of  all  their  school-mates"  fight. 

Bowling  ball  and  tin-horn  spirit 

Still  exists  in  Steven's  Hall. 
Soon  our  school  days  will  be  ended. 

Then  upon  the  world  we'll  call. 

School-mate  friends,  l?t's  make  life  cheery; 

Live  a  young  life  while  you  may. 
When  you're  old,  and  life  is  dreary 

Just  ring  up   those  Clarion  days.

Definition  of  the  Faculty 


"The   faculty   is  a   bunch  of  wise  people  paid   for  aiding  the  Senior  class   run   the 
nal." 

Prof. — A  fool  can  ask  more  questions  than  a  wise  man  can  answer. 
Student — No  wonder  so  many  of  us  flunk  in  e.xams. 

Prof. — "That's  a  very  bright  dog  you  have." 

Student — "Yes,  and  he's  a  trick  dog,  too." 

Prof. — "I  had  a  dog  and   I  couldn't  teach  him  any  tricks." 

Student — "Well,   you   see,   you  have  to  know   more  than  the  dog." 


Our  Faculty 


We  here  present  our  Faculty.      Their  photos  are  within, 
They're  all  decked  out  in  their  glad  rags  and  wear  a  Sunday  grin. 
They  look  so  pleasant,  one  would  think  State  Normal  is  a  cinch. 
But  when  the  lesson's  ill  prepared,  the  shoe  begins  to  pinch. 
That  lovely,  witching,  Sunday  smile,  will  vanish  in  a  trice. 
And  oh!  the  look  that  takes  its  place,  it's — well  it  isn't  nice. 

"I  can't  see  you"   Dad  thunders,   "That's  zero  minus  ten." 

"No  excuse  to-day?"  Miss  Barton  asks,  "Don't  let  that  occur  again.' 

"You'd  better  sell  your  Virgil,"  this  comes   from  Ballenline, 

"If  you  can't  translate  such  as  that,  you're  simply  wasting  time.  " 

"Don't  say  'That  there'   to  me,  sir,  "  Quoth  Dolly  in  a   rage; 

He  stamps  his  foot,  he  rolls  his  eyes,  then  smiles,  and  turns  the  page. 

And  then,  oh  my!   The  way  they  cram  our  minds  with  subject  matter 

They  ram  it  in,  and  cram  it  in,  and  stir  it  up  like  batter. 

There's  Eddy's  classics,  Givan's  dates,  and  Wilk's  dihedral  angle, 

With  sines  and  cosines  jumbled  up,  a  truly  hopeless  tangle. 

With  Thompson's   Ethics,    Bixler's  Deutsch,   and   Decker's  elocution. 

If  we  survive  with  all  of  this,  we'll  have  an  iron  constitution. 

The  "Model  School"  is  well  controlled,  by  Rice  and  Jones  and  Klahr, 

But  every  senior  holds  his  breath,  when  doing  duty  there. 

In  Music   Hall.  Miss  Senecal,  directs  with  greatest  care. 

Rchr   draws   the  bow   across  the  strings  and   music   (ills  the  air. 

And  Acor  squints  along  the  stick  and  passes  back  the  wood, 

"You'd  better  make  another  one,  that  isn't  very  good.  " 

Our  physical  development  receives  attention  too. 

Miss  Murray  and  Mr.  Carson  direct  the  work  we  do. 

Miss  Nolin  teaches  cooking  and  sewing.       Mercy  Me  I 

When  we  complete  the  Normal  ccurse,  what  paragons  we'll  be. 

Shafer's  last,  but  not  the  least.      With  fear  and  awful  dread. 

The  guilty  one  approaches  him,  that  carpet,  green — "Nuf  Said." 

With  this  brief  introduction,  we  bid  our  friends  adieu. 
Each  teacher,  every  one  of  them,  is  faithful,  loyal,  true. 
I  wonder  if  when  we  go  out  to  leach  a  country  school 
We'll  do  our  duty  half  as  well  as  they  do,  as  a  rule? 
I  have  my  doubts  but  this  I  know,  whatever  good  we  do. 
Their  precept  and  example,  will  always  help  us  through.

This  genial  red  faced  Irishman, 

Whose  smile  is  four  by  four. 

Is  head  guy  in  this  Normal  School. 
That's  Shafer,   look  him  o'er. 

He's  like  X-  R-  '"  some  respects. 

He  advocates  "square  deal" 
And  when  his  mind  is  once  made  up 

He's  firm  as  any  steel. 


The  gray  haired  rnan  in  the  office, 

Is  also  somewhat  "sot.  " 
He  deals  out  knowledge  by  the  volume 

And  lifts  what  cash  you've  got. 


"Dolly"  springs  from  his  bed. 

And  his  hair  stands  on  end. 

He  has  heard  a  most  terrible  noise. 

He  jerks  on  his  bath-robe 

And  bounds  thru  the  hall. 

In  search  of  those  troublesome  boys. 

A  dead,   dead  silence  reigns. 

His  search  proves  in  vain. 

Not  a  sound,  not  a  breath  stirs  the  air. 

Poor  "Dolly"  is  puzzled. 

At  last  he  concludes. 

He's  a  victim  of  mince  pie.    (night  mare) 

"There  isn't  any  hair  on  the  top  of  his  head. 
On  the  place  where  the  hair  ought  to  grow." 
There   isn't   any  files  on   his  old   bald  pate, 
And  you  bet  that  he's  not  slow  (?) 
What's  the  matter  with   Bixler? 
We'll  all   admit  that  we  don't  know.

Stop,  kindly  friend,  your  ear  incline. 
To  hear  our  Stewart  Evangeline. 
The  chap  will  now  expatiate. 
On  woodwork.      And  thus  elucidate, 
That  Manual  T  raining,  band  in  hand. 
Goes  with  Domestic  Science. 

This  hustling  bustling,  busy  maid. 
In  cap  and  apron  thus  arrayed. 
Is  teacher,  nurse  and  cook  combined. 
Small  wonder  if  this  daily  grind 
Makes  Sally  sigh,  and  grasp  her  text. 
And  wonder  what  is  coming  next.

Physics 


Physics!   Physics!  Oh,  you  physics! 

It  has  crazed  my  aching  head. 
Horror  of  my  wakeful  moments! 

Night-mare  when  I  he  abed! 

Notes!   Ye  Gods!   How  that  blue  paper 
Haunts  me  ever,  night  and  day. 

If   I  plan  the  least  diversion. 

Physics'  notes  stand  in  my  way. 

Hand  your  notes  in  by  tomorrow. 
Underscore  the  facts  with  red 

Name  in  upper  right  haad  coirne-. 
Time  division  at  the  head. 

Don't  forget  the  place  the  date  goes. 

Let  a  vacant  line  between. 
In  the  middle  of  the  paper, 

Roman  numerals  must  be  seen. 

Learn  the  law  of  gravitation. 

Look  not  on  it  as  a  bore. 
If  you  ever  dare   Forget  it. 

You  are  doomed  forever-more. 

Learn  the  law  of  falling  bodies. 
Pressure  of  the  air  compressed. 

Siphons,  pumps,  balloons  and  magnets. 
Fields   of   force   and   all   the   rest. 

Midnight  hour  has  long  departed. 
Ere  the  notes  are  quite  complete. 

And  the  weary  head  is  pillowed. 
For   an  hour  or  two  of  sleep. 

Thus  through  day   and  night  we  labor. 
And  endure  the  mental  strain. 

But   'twill  end   as  all  things  earthly. 
So  dig  in  with  might  and  main. 

Then  when  earthly  toil  is  over. 

We'll  exchange  this  world  of  care. 

For  1  bright  and  heavenly  mansion 
Hid!    Oh   Dad!    No   Physics  there.

Nineteen-Thirteen 

The  poets  and  sages  of  all  climes  and  ages 
Have  declared  that  thirteen  is  an  omen  of  ill. 
But  we're  not  old  fashioned  enough  to  believe  it; 
'Tis  a  shame  if  such  folly  should  cling  to  us  still. 

Thru'  learning  and  uprightness  \\'e'll  win  the  honor 
And  esteem  of  our  fellows.     Then  all  must  agree. 
That  this  class  of  thirteen  has  proved  beyond  question. 
Naught  but  good  luck  accompanies  the  one  and  the  three. 

We'll  seek  not  to  dazzle  the  world  with  our  glory, 
Nor  vaunt  of  the  honors  which  we  shall  obtain. 
How  can  we  discern  what  the  future  holds  for  us? 
Any  boasting  on  our  part  would  he  worse  than  vain. 

We'll  simply  endeavor  to  do  each  day's  duties, 
To  bear,  uncomplaining  our  part  in  the  strife; 
Use   every   advantage   that   crosses  our  pathway. 
To  make  each  move  count  in  this  battle  of  life. 

Some  laugh  and  declare  that  our  hopes  are  but  empty. 
Let  them  jeer  at  our  dreams,  and  our  plans  for  the  fight. 
The  effort  is  weak,  but  the  standard  is  lofty. 
Ah !  We  know  we  must  struggle  and  toil  up  the  height. 

And  so,   for  the  sake  of  the  tie  that  now  binds  us. 
For  the  fame  of  the  class  and  of  Clarion  dear. 
We'll  each  do  our  best  with  the  every  day  duties. 
And  all  will  be  well  in  the  end,  never  fear. 

From  the  standpoint  of  numbers  the  class  is  a  leader. 
It  being  the  largest  produced  by  the  school. 
But  we  boast  not  of  numbers,  as  we  are  not  boasting. 
So   even  in  this  we   will   not  break  our   rule. 

"Labor  omnia  vincit."      ^'ou  are  our  motto. 
.And  the  keys  to  the  gate  of  our  future  you  hold. 
May  the  doors  yet  unopened  conceal  a  bright  pathway. 
Which  time  in  its  flight  to  our  eyes  will  unfold.

(lass — "None.      It  affects  only  the  untied.  " 

Some  member  of  the  Senior  class  should  tell  Ethel  Henderson  that  summer  is  here 
and  she  should  take  off  her  sweater,  worsted  dress  and  sour  look.  Will  any  one  volunteer? 
The  rest  of  the  class  will  be  much  obliged. 

Miss  Barton  to  Geology  Class — "What  would  you  think  if  I  should  suddenly  let 
loose  sometime?  What  if  I  didn'i  keep  a  double  grip  on  my  temper  and  once  in  every

"No."

Clarion's  Hearticultural  Department 

The  "Case  Tree"  or  arbor  cupidae  is  a  very  fickle  plant,  and  demands  constant 
attention  in  order  to  insure  good  results.  It  is  a  member  of  the  justustu  family  and 
closely  related  to  the  Lettuce  alone.  It  flourishes  in  all  climates.  It  is  usually  found 
to  consist  of  two  trunks,  very  close  together,  the  branches  being  sometimes  mterlocked. 
The  leaves  are  heart  shaped.  This  tree  does  not  always  blossom  at  stated  seasons,  but 
it  is  likely  to  develop  into  the  "blooming  cereus"  variety  at  any  time.  Like  the  oak, 
it  soemtimes  has  many  parasites  preying  upon  it.  The  most  common  of  there  parasites  are 
the  gossip  and  slander  vines  whose  poisonous  odor  may  stunt  the  growth  of  the  tree  and 
in  exceptional  cases  exterminate  its  life  entirely.  The  canker  worm  of  jealousy  which 
occasionally  attacks  the  roots  is  also  very  harmful. 

The  extended  palm  (palma  extenta)  or  glad  hand  is  a  plant  that  appears  in  many 
forms  about  the  college.  Among  the  more  common  varieties  is  the  palma  fraternitatis 
or  frat  grip.  Then,  too,  we  enjoy  the  gratulatio-amicorum.  or  congratulation  variety 
which  is  especially  prized  by  Seniors  about  Commencement  time.  Another  common 
variety  is  the  "lebewohl"  or  farewell  palm  whose  fruit  leaves  a  sort  of  bitter  sweet  taste. 

The  two-lip  or  osculatis  is  a  sweet  flowering  plant,  highly  prized  by  both  sexes.  It 
blooms  most  profusely  in  obscure  places  where  the  light  is  not  too  strong.  In  summer 
It  should  be  culti\ated  on  shaded  verandas.  In  case  of  indoor  cultivation,  great  caution 
should  be  observed.  It  should  be  kept  away  from  windows  unless  the  shades  be  drawn. 
On  no  account  should  it  be  exposed  to  the  "Rubber"  plant  or  the  "Chaperon"  we;d 

The  bluff-ball  is  a  mushroom  or  fungus  of  phenomenally  rapid  growth.  It  often 
springs  up  during  the  night  or  even  develops  in  the  class  room  during  the  early  morning 
lecitation.  Like  the  puff  ball,  it  possesses  no  solidity,  but  is  h'ghlv  inflated.  When 
pressed,  it  exudes  hot  air.  A  few  of  the  Profs,  fail  to  distinguish  it  from  real  fruit,  but 
a  little  experience  enables  cne  to  recognize  it  at  sight.

The  Floor  Teacher 

(To  the  tune  of  "The  Woodpecker.") 

There's  some  one  conning  down  the  big  long  hall, 

Pat  pity  pat,  pat,  pat ; 
But  there's  no  one  about  as  I  can  see. 
Save  a  student  that  is  singing  a  song  of  glee. 
That  "my  light  is  on  and  the  teacher  doesn't  see." 
But  It's  patting  away  so  steadily, 

Pat  pity  pat,   pat.  pat. 

There's  some  one  tapping  at  her  room  door. 

Tap  tipy  tap,  tap.  tap; 
And   she's  hopping  about   so  busily 
With  her  hair  in  kids  and  in  'er  ki-mo-nee. 
Going  round  to  see  if  the  lights  are  out 
Tapping  at  every  light  she  sees. 

Tap  tipy,  tap,  tap,  tap. 

There's  some  one  going  to  the  clothepress  door. 

Tap  tipy  tap.  tap,  tap; 
The  bell  has  rung  and   it's  time  you  know 
That  ycu're  in  bed  where  you  ought  to  be 
Sleeping  snug  as  a  bumble-bee.

"Dad"  Welch  (to  Claire  Simpson  in  chemistry) — "I  don't  know  what  his  name 
IS.  but  get  him  out  of  your  mind,  and  think  chemistry." 

Claire — "???!**? ! !  !*oo*?"  etc. 

We  often  wondered  why  the  professor  of  mathematics  was  so  careful  to  shield  his 
head  during  a  wind  storm.  A  visitor  informed  us  that  he  wore  a  piece  of  burlap  covered 
with  sea-weed,  and  as  the  sea-weed  had  dried  out  there  was  a  possibility  of  the  com- 
bination taking  flight. 

"Where   are  you   going,   my  pretty  maid?" 

"To  'Nails'   for  ice  cream,  sir,"  she  said, 
"Alas,"  he  gasped  as  his  face  turned  blue. 

For  he  didn't  possess  a  single  sou.

To  1913 


'i  our  radiant   faces  greet  each  rising  6ay, 
As  flowers  spreacJ  their  petals  to  the  light; 
Soul  beauty  floods  the  mortal  features'  clay 
As  sun-light  glorifies  each  hilltop  bright. 
Your   happy   voices  fill   the   listening  air 
With   melodies  more  sweet  than  chant  ot  bird. 
Whose  loveliest  lay  e'er  tuned  cannot  compare 
In   gn  ine   loy  such   as  your  songs  have  stirred. 
Your  pulsing  hearts  obey  the  mind's  behest 
Revealed  in  many  a  friendly,  gracious  deed. 

Whose  doing  makes  all  life  more  blest 
To  those  whose  loyal  love  is  your  best  need. 
Where  e'er  your  pathways  winding  may  ascend. 

Go  with  the  benediction  of  each  friend 
The  truly  wise  both  knows  and  knows  that  he  knows; 
Cleave  thou  to  him  and  never  forsake  him. 

But  whoso  knowing,  knows  not  that  he  knows 
We  is  asleep;  go  thou  to  him,  and  wake  him. 
Me  who  knows  not  and  would  fain  be  taught 
He  is  simple;  take  thou  him  and  teach  him. 
The  ma.n  who  knows  not  that  he  knows  naught  aught 
He  is  a   fool:   No  light  shall  reach  him. 


A  Letter 


Sent  by  an  inmate  of  Stevens  Hall  to  a  lady  member  of  the  Faculty. 
44  Castle  Manor. 
— Wyx — on — Styx — 

My  dear  Miss  Eddy: — I  was  much  pleased  to  receive  by  last  night's  post,  your 
letter  and  the  copy  of  your  book,  "He  Loved,  but  was  Lured  Away." 

In  this  day  of  the  "six  worst  smellers,  '  which  are  very  odious  to  one  so  highly 
cultured  and  cultivated  as  myself — I  s[>eak  modestly — it  is  a  pleasure  to  read  such  a 
book  as  yours.  I  accept  with  thanks  the  inplied  hint  that  Reginald  Rexall,  paragon 
of  virtues,  is  none  other  than  myself — I  speak  modestly. 

Before  the  scintillating  pyrotechnics  of  your  effervescent  and  pterodactylic  vocabu- 
lary, I  am  dumb.  I  confess  to  having  been  once  drowned  in  your  stream  of  words,  and 
I  was  only  resuscitated  by  artificial  respiration. 

Compared  to  this  child  of  your  brain,  Milton's  "Paradise  Lost"  is  never  found; 
Pilgrim  does  not  progress;  Bacon  does  not  fry;  Shakespeare  makes  much  ado  about  noth- 
ing; Ben  Jonson's  timber  looks  like  white  pine;  Decameion  and  Elsie  Dinsmore  modestly 
letire  together;  Horatio  Alger  and  Balzac,  both  supporting  de  Maupassant  retire  to  sym- 
pathize with  Hall  Caine,  Mane  Corelli,  Robert  Herrick,  and  Bertha  M.  Clay  (Alias 
"Charlotte  M.  Braeme").  In  fact  this  masterpiece  of  yours,  with  its  tatting  of  phrases, 
its  Battenberg  of  words,  and  its  quamt  similes,  metaphors,  thinumbobs  and  whatnots, 
stands  second  to  none — I  speak  modestly — except  to  my  own  "We  Parted  at  Halter." 

Only  the  spark  of  your  genius  could  ignite  uch  literary  fireworks  as  have  made  your 
name  a  household  word,  and  given  you  a  place  in  the  Hall  of  Fame  between  Georgie 
Sheldon  and  Geo.  Barr  McCutchen. 

I  suggest  you  study  the  following  books:  (  1  ).  Murdered  at  Midnight,  by  Dr.  Jno. 
Manly,  Dh.  P.  (2).  Why  I  killed  my  papa,  by  Elsie  Dinsmore  (this  is  excellent  for 
critical  situations.)  (3).  Editors,  Critics,  Bedbugs,  and  Other  Vermin,  by  Marie 
Corelli.  (4).  Love  Letter  of  a  Musician  (pianola),  or  Love  Affairs  of  Literary  Men, 
by  Myrtle  Reed. 

I  shall  be  glad  to  hear  of  any  future  literary  efforts  on  your  part. 
Very  truly  yours, 

Hilton  A.  Wick. 

P.  S. — Now  I  suppose  you  will  sell  my  autograph  for  five  dollars. — Such  is  fame!

A  Letter  from  an  Old  Senior 

Dear  Classmates: — 

There  is  a  lime  for  everything,  for  work  as  well  as  play.  A  tim;  to  laugh,  a  tima 
to  sleep  in  the  beautiful  hours  of  May.  A  time  for  people  to  sympathize,  and  help 
»  struggling  friend.  A  time  to  speak  to  you  all  and  hear  your  pleasant  rhymes  hut  be  sure 
that  m  everything  you  do  that  you  "Get  out  on  time." 

All  the  world  was  wrapped  with  beauty  on  a  quiet  Wednesday  afternoon  in  May. 
The  people  in  the  pest  house  were  resting  calmly,  a?  the  hours  of  the  day  faded  away. 
If  a  person  feels  like  moving  from  a  closed  four  cornered  room,  he  must  get  permission 
from  the  authorities  and  read  law  books  there  concerned. 

If  a  person  is  upright  and  honest  and  dees  what  he  can,  his  enemies  will  approach 
him  wherever  he  is.  Who  are  your  enemies?  Test  them  if  you  may,  and  you  will  '  nd 
out  withcut  delay.  If  a  person  loses,  by  the  way-side,  two  golden  hours,  remember  that 
each  is  set  with  sixty  diamond  minutes,  and  no  matter  what  profession  he  is  pursuing  no 
reward   is    offered    for   they   are   gone    forever. 

^'et  the  thing  that  goes  the  farthest  towards  making  this  life  worth  whil;  is  "Just 
a  pleasant  smile,"  whether  one  is  in  the  inside  of  the  pest  house  looking  out  or  the  outside 
looking  in. 

'I'ou  may  talk  about  walking  on  green  carpet.  Some  few  have  walked  it  harder 
than  1.  but  I  will  remember  the  class  of  1913  and  I  thank  you  each  and  every  one  for 
your  kindnesses. 

Yours  to  all, 

Anthony  E.  Orton,  Wattsburg,  Pa. 

Senior  Teacher — "Now,  Johnnie,  give  me  a  sentence  containi'^g  the  word  'seldom." 
Johnnie — My  father  used  to  have  a  ccuple  of  pigs,  but  he  selled  'em!" 

Girls  (in  Domestic  Science) — Miss  Nolin,  are  you  sure  these  eggs  have  no  chickens 
111  them? 

Miss  Nolin — ^'es,  girls,  they  are  duck  eggs. 

Stanley  Welfling  (meeting  Clara  Brady  on  her  way  to  gym) — Don't  run  so  fast 
Clara  or  you  will  lose  your  wind. 

Clara — O  well,  there'  plenty  more  around  here.

Prof.  Acor   (to  maid) — How  does  the  baker  make  these  kisses? 
Maid — I  don't  know  but  I'll  find  out. 
Baker's  Recipe — 

I    armful  pretty  girls 

1  lovely  face 

2  laughing  brown  eyes 
2  rosy  cheeks 

2  lips  like  strawberries 
Mix  well  together  and  press  two  lips.      The  result  will  be  astonishing. 
Frosting — 1   piece  of  dark  piazza. 

A  little  moonlight  pressed  into    1    large  or  small   hand  so  as  not  to 
attract  attention. 

1  or  2  whiskers. 

2  oz.  romance. 

Dissolve  1  -2  doz.  glances  in  a  quantity  of  heslitation  and  2  oz.  yielding. 

Place  kisses  on  blushing  lips  or  cheeks,  flavor  with  a  slight  scream  and  set  aside  to 


Student's  Banquet 

First  came  Rhetoric, 
Served  with  a  theme. 

Followed  by  Latin. 

A  sort  of  cheese-dream. 

Next  came  Algebra 

With  its  X,  Y,  Z's 
Spicy  enough 

To  make  sneeze. 

Geometry  too. 

And    Parallel   lines; 
Trigonometry  after 

With  sines  and  cosines. 

A  little  of  French 

With  a  "si  vous  plait  " ; 
Then  morning  chapel 

And  all  slay  away. 

The  last  was  German, 

With  "der,"  "das,  "  "die," 

This  course  was  one 
Too  many  for  me. 

For  dessert,  we  were  served 
With  exams  and  tests. 

Nothing  was  lacking. 
Except  some  rests.

The  Normal  Bell 

Something   breaks   upon   our  slumber. 

Dreamy  music  far  away, 
Gently  swelling,  growing  clearer. 

Bell  like  tones  are  soundmg  nearer, 
I  must  needs  wake  up,  'tis  day, 

"Tis  the  Normal  bell  a  ringirg. 

All  the  world  is  up,  and  busy. 

Forth  we  go  with  footsteps  light. 
When  duty  calls  to  waiting  tasks 

Then  may  not  our  smiles  be  masks; 
But  be  cheery,  true,  and  bright. 

When  the  Normal  bell  is  ringing. 

We  are  sitting  in  the  class-room. 

Ah!  Woe  the  bell  will  never  ring. 

We  are  weary,  tired,  and  worried; 

Normal  life  is  much  too  hurried. 

Knowledge  is  an  irksome  thing; 

Glad  relief!  the  bell  is  ringing. 

And  agam  we're  in  the  class-room. 

But  the  scene  is  other  than  before. 

We  are  eager,  calm,  attentive; 

Knowledge  is  a  good  mcentive. 

We  will  seek  it  ever  more. 

But.  all  too  soon  the  bell  is  ringing. 

In  the  evening,  when  we're  weary 

Of  cares,  that  waking  life  encumber. 

And  dreamland  calls  alluringly, .  . 

A  glad  refrain  rings  out  assuringly. 

And  we  seek  in  deepest  slumber 

While  the  Normal  bell  is  ringing. 

All  our  play  times  and  our  fetes. 

When  we  meet  in  glad  array. 

The  dance  at  which  the  graces  mingle. 

The  games  at  which  our  nerves  a  tingle, 


And  e'en  class-meetings,  their  affray 

Is  ushered  by  the  ringing  of  the  bell. 
At  the  calm  and  peaceful  ending 

Of  the  restful  Sabbath  day. 
As  evening  shadows  softly  fall, 

A  hush  descends  upon  us  all. 
We  to  Vespers  wend  our  way, 

.And  the  Normal  bell  is  ringing. 
At  last,  to-night  is  a  night  in  June, 

.An  eve  of  joy,  a  night  of  sorrow; 
Joy  HI  the  work  that  is  all  done. 

Sorrow  in  partings  just  begun 
To  be  whispered  sadly  for  the  morrow, 

As  the  Normal  bell  is  ringing. 
Perhaps,  when  we  are  far  away. 

That  night  and  others  will  return 
To  us  in  visions  of  happy  times. 

Of  school  when  we  heard  the  chmnes. 
And  starting,  we  will  listen  in  dreams 

To  the  Normal  bell  a  ringing.

Can  a  Seqaelle  be  published  ^without 
money? 

Possibly   one  edition,    but    the    next    one    would    likely    not    meet 
with  success. 

Can  a  Seqaelle  be  published  ^without 
advertising? 

Yes.      How?      By  each  of  you   paying  twice  as  much  for  your  book. 
The  advertiser  pays  half.       He  also  will  give  you  liberal  discounts.      Even 
if  the  prices  be  the  same,  he  deserves  your  patronage. 

The   1913  Sequelle^s  debts  are  all  paid 

Except  this  one  to  the  advertisers.       We   ask  you  all   to   help   pay 
this  debt.      Patronize  the  dealers  who  patronize  us.

Spring  Poem 

Spring.  Oh  gentle  Spring  is  coming 
A  lamb-like  youth  I  did  adore. 
But  when  I  kissed  him  in  the  gloaming. 
Faith  I  trow,  it  made  him  sore. 
•   •  'Tis  true,  my  love,  our  Spring  is  coming 

See  how  the  leaf  buds  dance; 
O'er  the  fields  we'll  soon  be  roaming. 
And  picking  bur — 

There  are  some  people  so  wantmg  in  musical  taste  that  they  don't  know  the  difference 
between  a  string  orchestra  and  a  rubber  band. 

We  wonder  if  that  "Old  Maid's  Bench"  is  full.      We  have  a  few  more  who  want  to 
join. 

Nowadays  a  man  never  gets  drunk,  he  simply  overestimates  his  capacity. 

There  is  plenty  of  room  in  the  world  unless  you  try  to  spread  yourself  too  much. 

The  best  way  to  succeed  in  the  world  is  to  act  on  the  advice  you  give  others. 

Remember,  if  you  don't  eat  fish  and  onions  you  can't  have  ice  cream. 

People  who  live  in  glass  houses  should  pull  down  the  blinds 

'Tis  pleasant  sure  to  see  one's  self  in  print; 

A  book's  a  book,  although  there's  nothing  in  't. 


The  Light  of  Other  Days 

Oft  in  the  stilly  night 

Ere  slumber's  chain  has  bound  me. 
Fond  memory  brings  the  light 
Of  other  days  around  me: 
The  smiles,   the  tears 
Of  boyhood's  years 
The  words  of  love  then  spoken; 
The  eyes  that  shone. 
Now  dimmed  and  gone. 
The  cheerful  hearts  now  broken! 
Thus  in  the  stilly  night 

Ere  slumber's  chain  has  bound  me. 
Sad  memory  brings  the  light 

Of  other  days  around  me. 

When  I  remember  all 

The  friends  so  link'd  together 
I've  seen  around  me  fall 

Like  leaves  in  wintry  weather, 
I  feel  like  one 
Who  treads  alone 
Some  banquet  h3,ll  deserted. 
Whose  lights  are  fled 
Whose  garlands  dead. 
And  all   but   me  departed! 
Thus  in  the  stilly  night 

Ere  slumber's  chain  has  bound  me. 
Sad  memory  brings  the  light 

Of  other  days  around  me.
