Member of State Education
Board Presents Diplo.
mas at Normal School
for Eighth Time.

1t Is not the teacher who does the
most for her pupils. it is the one who
gets them to do the most for them.
selves who will succeed, was the
statement of Charles L. Ames. a
member of the state board of educa-
ton. who gave the address at the
graduation of the senior class Of the
New Britain State Normal school
yesterday afternoon.
This was the eighth Normal school
graduation at which Mr. Ames has
spoken and presented diplomas on
behalf of the state board. The audi
forum was crowded to capacity.
shortly after 2 o'clock the grad
yates filed into the auditorium while
Miss l., Ethel Prior pianist played
the professional march. Dressed in
White. the girls presented a dignified
appearance.
The Girls Glee club of the Camp
school gave a splendid concert of
three songs. Despite their youthful
ness the girls sang remarka bly, well.
The songs were The Song and the
hreeze, Dear Land of Freedom"
and The Invitation Of the Bells"
Miss Olga Haigis, speaking on the
topic The First Normal School in
America" received loud applause.
The Normal school Glee club scor-
ca another of it's successes in the
songs, In the Time of Roses" The
swan and "A Song of India"
Alice Murphy. president of the
school' brought many interesting
1acts to light in her talk on Text
Books of Former Days"
Lauds Principal White
Principal Marcus White was laud-
ed by Mr.. Ames at the beginning of
MS talk as credit to education.
referring to the fact that this was
hls eighth appearance at graduation
exercises he estimated that more
IMAM 1000 teachers had received
diplomas from him. He was proud
OF the honor. he assured the audi
ence.
School Does Not Make the Man
Mr.. Ames divided the teaching
profession into three groups, the
school keeper, the school teacher,
and the school counsellor. They rep
resent three steps in the progress of
education, according to Mr.. Ames.
The first period required the
teacher to assign the work, hear re-
citation and maintain discipline. The
]ast duty was Of prime importance,
Mr.. Ames declared
