Excerpt from The Normal Herald, Vol. 16: October, 1910; Published Quarterly by the Trustees of the State Normal School, of Indiana, Pennsylvania

Last summer, Doctor Ament took a vacation trip through Europe, - the first rest possible to him since the beginning of his connection with the Normal School.

On July nineteenth, he and Mrs. Ament, accompanied by Mr. William Smith and Mr. Race, sailed from New York City. They included in their itinerary Holland, Germany, France, England, Scotland and Ireland.

Excerpt from The Normal Herald, Vol. 16: October, 1910; Published Quarterly by the Trustees of the State Normal School, of Indiana, Pennsylvania

There is a sacred story of the East,
How once, when kingdoms were still young, a prince was born to India's throne;
The king with fond heart hoped his son would know the power he had known,
And wear the crown when his own reign had ceased.

But, as the little Prince Siddartha grew,
His thoughts were not on kingship's distant lure, or marshalled armies' might;
Instead he looked upon the sad and poor, and wondered at the sight
Of so much suffering 'neath Heaven's blue.

The old king mocked his anxious questioning,
And built a palace, fair with sandalwood and walls of pearl and gold,
And brought within delights and treasures that would his affection hold,
And left without all trace of suffering.

For; all about the palace, walls were run
With gates of triple brass which no one might undo by night or day;
And guards were set, with orders from the king that none should pass that way,
Not even should it be the king's own son.

So for a time the prince lived happily,
And in his wealth of love and peace forgot the world outside the gate, -
Till subtly, hints of death, of pain, of toilers fainting neath their weight, Stole in to make him ponder wistfully.

Thus in his prison palace year by year,
Siddartha thought and dreamed and felt within his being spring
A strange new power, a wondrous godlike gift to help the suffering,
A high command, that bade him go nor fear.

At last he knew he must no longer wait -
'Twas night when he set forth, and all the palace lay in sleep secure;
He sought out Kantaka, his snow-white steed, whereon his flight was sure,
And rode with eager heart up to the gate.
