The Purple and The Gold "
Tl"XE-"The Orange and The Rlack' '
Let other Normals boast
Of victories galore,
Of laurels never lost,
Of triumphs by the score ;
Let them tell you of their prowess,
Of warriors strong and bold,
But their colors never lower
To the purple and the gold.
Our men are all victorious,
Thru every state around ;
Our athletes and debaters
Are winning great renown.
Tho' we're proud of all Wisconsin,
Whose fame's in story told,
Our heart's with Stevens Point Normal
And the purple and the gold.
To the banks of "Old Wisconsin, "
When these years are past and gone,
When as schoolmates we have parted,
And our lessons all are done,
We'll return and show our comrades,
We're as loyal as of old,
And cheer them on to victory,
•Neath the " Purple and the Gold ."

TU!\£-" When Johnnie
~omes
Marching Home."
When we came out of the puplic schools,
Sn fresh, so fresh,
And came into the Nonnal School,
So green, so green 1
The big girls laughed, the boys they jeered,
Because our teachers were so feared;
But you won't believe it when you see us now.
We went into our classes new,
So meek, so meek,
A knowledge of musi-c and hygiene, too,
To seek, to seek,
We did uot know how we must grow
Ere we got into the Senior row;
If you don't believe it, just look at us now.
In Sophomore year we played our part,
So well, so well,
Became proficient in the arts,
They tell, they tell,
In plain geom. and methods, too,
We learned how much there was to do;
If you don't believe it, just look at us now.
In Junior year we were so smart
And bright, and bright,
We learned our algebra by heart,
At night, at night;
Boys-We never called on ladies then,
Girls-\Ve never looked upon the men;
If you don't believe it, just look at us now.
As Seniors we have reached the goal,
So high, so high;
The fortune we have sought so long,
Is nigh, is nigh,
Our minds are filled with knowledge rare,
So of our futures have no care;
Tho' you don't believe it when you see us now.

Our Freshman
Who comes to Normal in the fall,
Believing that he knows it all,
And learns that pride must have a fall ?
The Freshman.
" Evol ution of a Senior. "
Who wants to enter every class,
Who over social slights is sore,
And never dreams but what he'll pass,
And vows receptions are a bore,
But test-day finds he's erred, alas?
But never fails to go to more?
The Freshman.
The Freshman.
Who scarcely his delight can mask
When urged in public gaze to bask,
But finds it rather try ing? Ask

What About the Alumni?
~>.-~v"'';'v'
N alumnus, theoretically, is the complete product of his educational institution. A biscuit, theoretically, is the complete product of its baker. A really good biscuit and a really good alumnus
are the best and cheapest advertisements, respectively, for the baker and for the school.
But sometimes the baker is ashamed of his biscuit and sometimes the school is embarrassed
and mortified by its alumnus.
All in all, however, these alumni are on pretty good ter ms with their schools. Loyal and patriotic, they will shout for her to the last. Generally the alma mater reciprocates this attachment.
The University of \Viscousin tenders honors to her governor son , La Follette; Harvard triumphantly pronounces
the names of John Adams and Emerson; old William and Marys points with pride to her Thomas Jefferson and
James Monroe; Bowdoin boasts of her Longfellow and Hawthorne; Columbia of her Hamilton; Princeton glories in her James Madison and Cleveland; West Point is proud of her Grant; and little Dartmouth can never
tell too often of the time when her halls were tread by Daniel Webster.
So it is not surprising that S. P. N. should bestow some of this natural regard upon her graduates; it is not
surprising that the NORMAL POINTER should monthly sacrifice one whole page to the alumni, and that even the
conservative NAUTILUS should find one little "chambered cell" where the history of these same alumni may
haYe a place to dwell.
T he history of these alumni-but, bold, have they any history that deserves special narration? Well, no,
we shall have to admit that S. P. N. is too young, that the number of graduates is too small, that their youthfulness is too great to imbue their history with any particular dignity such as would attach to the history of the
alumni of time-honored Yale.
There is an air of brand new freshness (I almost said verdancy) about them.
Here there are no gray heads; here, too, there is none of that peculiar dignity and romance which comes
with age and experience. There bas been but little buffeting by the storms of fate. There have been no
meteoric elevations to positions of great trust or honor. Their chronicles have thus far been uneventful, but bow
could it be otherwise?
The annals of infancy are always brief. Wait until ourS. P. N. grows older. Wait until the gloss on your
desk shall have been dulled by age; wait until the cream of the untarnished bricks shall have been tinged with
the ancient green of moss; wait until the ivies shall have grown tall and full; wait until that doorstep can hold
the falling rain in its long worn hollow; then, perhaps, if you ask my uncertain hand to write about the alumni,
I may have both history and romance to trace. Then I may have some great name on which my pen will linger;
then, too, taking the friendships and rivalries of by-gone school days as the woof, I may have some little romance
-'99
t o weave; then, but not until then.

"Jest a Leetle"
Farmer Stebbins goes do-«m to visit jerrJ' at the lVormaf, witnesses a field day,
escapes, gets home and reports :
• AAS, I had a purty good time, till yesterday. Them Normal folks is all right, but they're noisier
'n all git out. Say Hanner, that there field day yesterday beat anything I ever see ! Them
Normal fellers pranced out there right before everybody, with nothin' more on than a lot 'o
Hottentots, and Jerry he didn't have no more 'n his share 'o duds neither. Some of 'em wore
slippers with corks in their toes. I thought they was goin' to climb the greased pole, but a
feller said they was the splinters, whatever that meant. Two of 'em carried long poles, and I
cal'lated there was goin' to be a log rollin', but I didn't see no pond.
Bymebye some o' 'em jogged down the road aways and got in line and begun to git down on all fours. I've
seen three-legged races an' sack races, an' potato races, but I'll be banged if I ever see men run a race jest like
so many dogs; well, I did'nt this time neither. Someone fired a. pistol, and them fellers straightened up an'
come down the road lickety brindle.
Purty quick they fetched on some uncommon long saw-horses and sot em up, and some o' the fellers galloped over 'em. They called it a curdle-race, or somethin' like that.
So they kept on runnin' and jumpin' and tbrowin' a cannon-ball they had there, and doin' a lot o' curi's
tricks, an' all the time the folks in the grand stand was shakin' flags, an' tootin' horns, an' yellin' the craziest
j umble o' words y' ever beard. All at once they dried up an' a feller over in the jedge's stand bellered somethin', and then I thought the world was comin' to a end. Everybody jumped and hollered like all possessed.
I didn't stop to say good-by to Jerry. I tumbled down offeu the fence, and scooted for the depot, an' here I
am, mostly, I guess. Yaas, them's nice 'nough folks down there where Jerry is, but a le-e-tie too obstrep'rous

And ne·er wolde tyre to rede the whole day long.
Whan that September with his sunshine golden,
Hath made th1s worlde a bower to beholden,

Ful hoondreds three all in a compainye.
And one who holpen us through Caesar's tome,
Then Li,·y's histories and \'irgil's pome.
And one ther was who Physics taught ful wei,
Benign and long in lengU1 as all can telle.
And one ther was with auburn beere wei curled,
She knew the ins and outs of this wyde world.
A President tber was, a gentil man,
In patience grele advysed he as feu can ;
Grey was his cote, his herd was grey also,
His coler stiff and turned down lowe,
His eygen twinkled in his heed aright
To see the faithful folk and eke the erring wight.
A man there was who lovede bug-s and bones,
Not oft from him did come nor Sighs nor grones,
And hardily he was not undergrowe,
There was no one who liked him not, I trowe.
And one there was cries "Sit, " and then cries" Stand!"
"Lo, one has left nor shook us by the hand! "
He lovede ftoures, and often wolde there be
Sweete posies brought by him for us to see.
Anrl one who taught us how that we be strong,
To better lyve inspi red sche us by song.
And one who taught us how to write and spelle,
We needed this as listes in hall coulde telle.
And one who oft "One's plans one's soul," did say,
"The lesson is what you will have to day."
A Supervisor ek e their wolde be,
A kerchief whit about her neck wered sche,
And from her belt !.he heng a smalle bag
To holpen all her zeal did never flag.
And one there was who taught of deeds now past,
His knowledge organized from first to last.

The Palace
Beautiful
-• ND it came to pass, as I journeyed through a far country in the land of the setting sun, I came to
a gigantic building builded of yellow brick. The windows of this curiously fashioned building
did flash in the morning sun like burnished steel. Even as I tarried by the door, a vast concourse of people came hither from all directions, and gathered themselves together as one family
in this great building ; some in the innocence of youth ; some in the strength of manhood ; some
whose hair was hoary with age. I asked of these, "Who are ye?" and "What do ye here?"
They paused only to answer, "Know ye not, oh stranger, we are of the tribe Normalite, and
seek here those treasures which moth and rust do not corrupt.''
Now there was in this vast tribe a family called Forumite, who ran to bid me welcome, as was their won't
with strangers. Straightway I entered with them. The halls were of such size that a king might therein
assemble his army, and leading off from these halls on either side were spacious rooms in which the several
divisions of the tribe did pursue their favorite phantom. In the first hour of the day the whole tribe was assembled before a chief, who spoke a few words of kindly cheer and gentle admonition, after which the several
captains took each his company and went about the business of the day. One company did inquire into the
secrets of nature by mixing together divers ill-smelling compounds; another did strive to understand tbe workings of the human mind; and yet a third, whose task was most severe of all, did endeavor to polish their expression by constructing long themes out of nothing. So well pleased was I with what I had seen that I joined
myself unto this tribe and became one of their number.
It came to pass that in the first month of my abode among them there was heard dread rumors of the appearance of a horrid monster, a dread Sphinx, who of each did ask, "What bast thou done with the talents that were
given thee?" This monster was called Test. Some did smile at this rumor, and others did cry out and their
cheeks became pallid as with deadly fear. The monster came, glared down on us from the black walls, passed,
and the ordeal was over. But behold the ruin I Whole families are overthrown, while yonder is a young damsel
who weeps and will not be comforted. Test has searched the inmost recesses of memory, imagination and
reason and found- nothing.

The Senior Class Farewell
To Our Pre sident
Beloved master, patient guide,
Thy heart was always slow to chide
The faults of youth;
But quick with sympathy and praise,
To lead us in the brighter ways
Of steadfast truth.
Resistless time doth onward flowThe new will come, the old must go. 'Tis Life's decree;
The goal is reached, the task is done,
But harder toil is just begunWe are not free.
How shall we say farewell to thee
Ere yet upon life's stormy sea
We drift apart?
Master, what language now can tell
'fhe love which will forever dwell
Deep in our heart?
But if we fall when others rise,
We know that thou wilt sympathize
In that bard fight,
And give to us those words of cheer,
As thou so oft hast given here,
To make life bright.
You've toiled with us for two long years,
And watched us rise, through smiles and tears,
Toward our goal.
Sculptor-like, with band divine,
You chiseled out each noble line
Within our soul.
We are out beyond the harbor light,
The pilot leaves the ship to-night
To go ashore;
Each one alone must steer his bark
Out across the ocean dark,
Forever more.
It pained you when we went astray ;
You knew how soon the reckoning day
Would come to each ;
You saw us wasting precious time,
Those golden hours of youth sublime,
But would not preach.
Pilot, explain to us the chart
Once again before you start
Back for the land;
Each wave that strikes against the keel
Now seems to make the vessel reel
In our weak hand.

To the Wisconsin R.iver
Its blue waters rise up in the Northland,
And south thru the dark pine woods flow,
Where the ax of the woodman resounding
The proud forest monarch lays low.
Than the most fickle mistress more changeful,
Ever shifting in wild discontent,
When its mighty flood swings through the Narrows,
It subsides and its passion is spent.
Giant pines ~hich have towered in grandeur,
Now dethroned, of their glory are shorn,
And hurled on its turbulent bosom
To their doom, down the river are borne.
Between green banks with villages dotted,
Now majestic and stately it glides,
As forth to meet spoil-laden victors
A queen with her retinue rides.
It crashes through gorges and canons
By the fury of centuries worn,
In the rocks which in figures fantastic
It has sculptured its way to adorn.
Till its regal tide growing more rapid,
In haste with its consort to be,
Is embraced by the vast Mississippi
And together they sweep out to sea.

Galen
Twas twilight and he sat on a log all alone, his soft brown hair pushed back from his forehead.
He swung his fat, chubby legs back and forth, and laughed to see his great dog trying to worry
an old boot into a fighting mood. Finally the dog went away and the little lad was alone again.
He became lost in thot, and when his old grandfather bobbled by on his way to the ,...·ell, he
looked up and wondered in his childish way why grandmas and grandpas al,...·ays had such
"crumpled" faces. But his thots were soon turned into another channel, for on the ground beside him was
a great beautiful bug that seemed to have yellow fire in it. Was the moon made up of countless little bugs like
that? He would ask his grandfather when he came back.
The moon began .to climb up over the pine trees, and he scrambled off the log and stood with his hands
behind him, looking up at the sky. And then '' his star'' came out - that red star. He knew it was different
from other stars and he meant to find out all about it when he grew up. He wondered if the pine trees were
whispering because they felt sorry that some of their brothers and sisters had been cut down and carried away.
He heaved a little sigh when be beard. "Bed-time for Galen," and "Here be is!"
'' What has my boy been doing all evening?" asked the father, as he gathered the child into his arms.
"0, I been meditatio."
"What on?" and an amused smile played around his father's lips.
"On a log," and Galen's head sank on his father's breast and he was asleep before they reached the bouse.

A Trip to Hades
~o~=~~~o MUFFLED gong sounded, the spirit boat glided to the landing, and Charon helped me alight on
the ghostly banks of the Styx. He again plied his oars in the noiseless waters, and I was left
standing alone. The owls hooted and the bats flew overhead , and I felt lonesome and disconsolate, when a distinguished looking shade approached and volunteered to be my guide.
I had felt lonely up to this time, it is true. But as my spirit friend began to discourse upon
the familiar theme, "One's plan equals one's soul," I felt that we had held communion before.
As we strolled thru the streets, I heard a familiar voice saying, "Query, does it pay?" and I beheld our
worthy president surveying Ixion, rolling about on the ever-revolving wheel.
"All stand," and" Get your satchels packed," and I turned and saw a familiar ghost, drilling a class of
youthful shades in algebra. I turned away feeling quite at home. I had bad a great desire to meet Froebel,
and as my companion led me toward him, I saw him conversing with a s;:>irit, who said, as I drew near, "Whyyes-really-but then, you know there is no distinct line of demarcation. At least, I found it so in the other
world."
I heard a melancholy voice near by as a tall shade passed by me weeping, a roll of papers in his hand. My
friend explained that this was Raphael, wailing over C--'s, which a little spirit with a big blue apron had
given him. I found the aforesaid criticising Michael Angelo's clay modeling, and I heard as I passed by these
familiar words: "There is no feeling in your work, none whatever."
Another shade approached; a fat, jolly one with dimples. I found on inquiry that he was the terror of all
Hades, for the inhabitants never knew when he would make them write terrible documents called tests. And it
was verily said that he was happiest on these test days.
The familiar words, "Pile on more slabs," "Burn more oil," or" I'll get after you with a sharp stick,"
broke upon my confused senses. I was woudering if this wasn't - - when a cruel voice rang in my ears, "For
mercy's sake, get up! You'll miss that eight o'clock class of yours!"
