---------- THE NORMAL MESSENGER MAY, 1907 VACATIONS. The custom
of taking an annual vacation is apparently growing among the American
people. This we believe is a wise tendency, but in order to get the
best results from a vacation our plans must be carefully made. It is
commonly said that rest may be secured by a change of occupation as well
as by a relaxation from labor. If this principle is true, the
student finds himself in a most fortunate position, for after the
close application of a long school year he feels the need of physical
exercise and out-door employment, and at the same time feels the
necessity of earning funds for the coming year. It is our suggestion
therefore that every student who can possibly do so, find some
occupation for the summer than open air. If it is necessary to work for
wages, do not hesitate to accept honorable employment in the
forest, field or garden. If you are able to spend the summer "resting,"
then plan with friends for some trip into the mountains. Place the few
necessary articles into a pack, then throw that pack over your shoulder
and start on foot with your party for a tramp of forty or fifty miles up
some steep mountain trail. Take plenty of time for the journey, sleep out
of doors every night, live on a plain, simple diet, enjoy the beauties of
the scenery as you pass along, and your annual outing will be almost
ideal. You will get the exercise, pure mountain air, change of scene with
little expense, all of which go far to make an ideal outing for all
classes of people. E. T. MATHES.

---------- 4 The Normal Messenger FAREWELL TO THE SENIOR CLASS.
Instead of the class strife, clamor, and laughter which rang through the
building at the beginning of the year, we now find peace and quiet. Why
this sudden change? The saddest time of our school year is
approaching— the time when we shall part from friends and
classmates and seek our separate ways of life. Let us not be
down-hearted, but rather cheer and help those who are about to leave
school and cross the threshold of life. To the Seniors, as they gaze into
the future, are visible only success and fame, and eager to
conquer all they forget those they are leaving behind. But we
shall miss the class of '07 more than we now can tell. It is this class
that has commanded obedience for two years. It is this class that
has been the guardian of our schools, watching over all and directing each
in the right way. And we feel that as it steps out into the world to
assume the duties of life, it will still be a guardian and director. So
farewell, noble Seniors, one and all; win success and fame, and remember
there is a class behind that silent watch of all thy works will keep and
will give thee heartfelt applause. LULU SHIRCLIFFE, '08. LIFE'S WEB.
Mysterious, but simple still, is life unfolding web; Each day we see the
silken strands we weave. But silken-like, they float away at eventide,
And ere the morning's gold drives back the duller gray The strand is
lost, to give another play. We little think, from day to day, we spin
aught else but strands, Until, some moment unaware, we catch a glimpse
of life.
---------- Normal Messenger - 1907 May - Page 5
---------- The Normal Messenger 5 (As when, into the fountain's
pool one looks into its deeps, And sees, far through the crystal depths,
the pebbles' rounded forms), And see a web, the strands of which are
former acts transformed. Since life is ever weaving thread by thread,
Into a unity, translucent yet for aye, It matters much, since this frail
form spans time, Fixt twixt heaven, the limit, and earth the variable
sort What enters it, to make more beautous or distort. Therefore,
take each golden moment as though it were the last, And fit in it, as in
the ring the jeweler fits the .sparkling gem, The richest thought or act
thy life's storehouse then holds, And when before thy Creator thy life's
web's brought to light, 'Twill sparkle in radiant beauty in His own
precious light. G. S. ALLISON. 1907-08 ADDRESSES OF GRADUATES. Lola

here lived I." What a kind, patient, self-denying matron you have been.
Normal! What fond memories shall ever linger round you even when far
distance separate us! Golden sunset skies mirrored from silvered
waters of old Pacific foretell your glorious morrow. Six classes have
gone from your walls before the Seniors of 1907. Their graces lighten
home and hamlet far and near. Their careful service has paved a way to
immediate usefulness for those who enter their profession from Bellingham
Normal. The seventh class, the Senior class of 1907, has marked
distinction. We may say it is representative of more than average citizens
of the State of Washington, since its aims are higher than pure financial
aggrandizement. Personality is strongly assertive. The individual members
have worked strenuously and few who entered with intention to
graduate in June have met despair. The quiet-
---------- Normal Messenger - 1907 May - Page 8
---------- 8 The Normal Messenger ness of the class has caused
some to wonder who are the "naughty sevens," as little has been
accomplished for outward effect. "At seventeen years many their fortunes
seek." While little may be left within these halls to mark it being here
the members of this class will fill prominent and important places in
school work throughout Washington. The class of '07 has yet to reach the
prime of life. This has been true of its predecessors. This fact with
characteristics previously mentioned will enable the institution to
witness more lasting and wholesome results in future years from this
class than the past year altogether indicates. "From seventeen
years till now, here lived I, but now live I here no more." In all the
vigor of youth, with the brightness of prosperity around it, full of
hope and gladness, this class goes into its field. It holds no sad
reflections; it cherishes only joyous, happy thoughts of Bellingham
Normal, its Alma Mater. B. M. ANSLOW. SENIOR FAREWELL. We have a class
that soon will go Into the world their work to do, And whether abroad or
here at home, Our wishes follow where'er they roam. The Senior class
respect has won, Each duty has been nobly done. Ideals high and steady
aim, They soon will win an honored name. We'll miss them in our work each
day, We '11 miss them in our circle gay; But from the cup we drink their
joy, Success be theirs without alloy. We would not bid the class
farewell, In spirit we are with them still. We'll bid them God speed as
they start, Extend a wish from every heart. TYRA THOMPSON.

---------- The Normal Messenger 9 Y. W. C. A. The Influence of
the Young Women's Christian Association in a College Girl's Life.
The plaee and power of the Young Women's Christian Association in college
life have gained increasing recognition. Girls attending school usually
have an ideal in mind toward which they are working. This ideal, in the
main, is a woman, well developed, mentally, physically, socially, and
spiritually. The school curriculum takes care of the mental and physical
powers, while the social activities are carefully encouraged. The
spiritual side of life is practically neglected except in so far as the
Christian Association supplies the need. Every girl in her college work
finds her religious faith in danger of being undermined by the new
theories, scientific and otherwise, that are thrust upon her. It is here
that the influence of the Young Women's Christian Association
is most largely felt. It attempts to guide, help, and strengthen the
Christian faith of the girls. Each weekly devotional meeting, each Bible
class has its part in strengthening and deepening the religious life. The
Association also promotes the social life of the school. It is here that
girls from all classes meet in Christian fellowship. Some of the closest
friendships are formed as a result of this fellowship and common interest
felt by members of the Association. The very existence of the
Association indicates a sense of responsibility on the part of the
students themselves, for the moral tone and religious life of the
school. Aside from the individual good it accomplishes this co-operation
for the furtherance of the high ideals for the institution is of
lasting benefit to many. One of these ideals that has a lasting influence
on individual lives as well as in the general atmosphere of the school is
the spirit of CHARITY versus the spirit of CRITICISM that does much to
sweeten the relations of student with faculty, and student with student.
The Young Woman's Christian Association
---------- Normal Messenger - 1907 May - Page 10
---------- 10 The Normal Messenger offers a peculiar opportunity
to those who graduate from the institution, for those who go out into the
world may still remain in the Association. A lively interest in this
worldwide progressive organization will help to keep the young
teacher from showing the "earmarks of her profession." She need not
feel that all her college ties are broken. To summarize in a sentence, I
would say that the Young Woman's Christian Association is a large factor
in that ALL ROUND DEVELOPMENT necessary to an ideal woman's life,
be she teacher or follower of some other occupation. ADA F. MYERS.
CLASS WILL. We, the Senior class of the township '07, in the county of
Normal, in the state of Wisdom, do make and publish, this our last
will and testament, in manner and form following, that is to say: '01.
It is our will that our funeral be conducted without pomp,
unnecessary parade, and ostentation (out of consideration of our good
taste), and that the expenses thereof, and all our just debts be fully
paid from the overflowing (?) coffers of that generous body, the JUNIORS.
'02. We give, devise, and bequeath to our most creditable and apt pupils,
the FOURTH YEARS, our much desired seats in Assembly, and the Editorship
of the "Messenger," so efficiently and capably filled by one of our
worthy members. We likewise bequeath to them the right of entering the
state of Wisdom, as Seniors '08, that they may be spared the
ignominy of crossing JUNIOR bridge. '03. We give, devise, and bequeath to
our little sisters and brothers, the JUNIORS, that title to all of our
possessions and property, the plantation, known as Seniordom, situated in
the aforesaid township, during the rest of their natural life at the
Normal, several sessions of summer school included, and all

basketball, and likewise their inability to make up "cons," we do bestow
upon the THIRD YEARS some of our spare credits.. We do pray them to use

living, weaklings tho' they are, under the careful guidance of the FOURTH
YEARS. '06. To the Faculty, we give a rest from Slams, Jams and Worries,
believing in the golden rule, "Do unto others as you would have done by
you." '07. And last, we hereby constitute and appoint the FOURTH
YEARS to be the "Executioners" of this, our last will and testament,
revoking and annulling all former wills by us made, and ratifying and
