Excerpt from The Normal Herald, Vol. 14: April, 1908
Working along the same line, to secure a longer residence on the part of the student, the attempt is making to render the life of the stu dent a life of happiness, a life of. Quiet, but abiding, joy which the scholar knows. Cordial and sympa thetic relations between teacher and taught have contributed much to the accomplishment of this aim. The teaching body is imbued with the thought that a sound develop ment receives its impulse from with in, but that the guiding hand of the experienced teacher can aid the pro cess much.
Freedom does not mean license. There is a growing feeling in the school that there is here forming a great machine, a machine that is growing to grind on and that any one. Who gets his fingers in the cog Wheels will get hurt before the ma chinery can be stopped. The feel ing may be voiced in the words of the great American poet.
