Description
Clipping and performance program inserted between page [63] and [65] in the scrapbook of Laura Quayle Benson who attended the Florida State College for Women ca. 1917-1919.
In all essence, it seems to be a resource related to enrichment (as evidenced by a pamphlet on education) and a play hosted by the student body for members of the Junior class (on the right side of the image).

Education:
An education of the following typical definitions of education may be illuminating in regard to the social trend:
"The aim of education is to dispel terror and to discover truth"——Socrates.
"Education consists of giving to the body and soul all the perfection of which they are susceptible."——Plato.
"The true aim of education is the attainment of happiness through perfect virtue."——Aristotle.
"Education is a development of the whole man."——Comenius.
"The attainment of a sound mind and a sound body is the end of education."——Locke.
"Education is nothing but the formation of habits"——Rosseau.
"Education means a natural, progressive, and systematic development of all the powers."——Pestalozzi.
"The object of an education is the realization of a faithful, pure, inviolate, and hence holy life."——Froebel.
"The end of education is to produce a well-balanced, many-sidedness of interest."——Herbart.
"Education is the organization of acquired habits of conduct and tendencies of behavior."——James.
"Education means the universal distribution of extant knowledge."——Lester F. Ward.
"Education is the process of making a man want right things and to control himself and nature so as to better satisfy those wants."——Thorndike.
"Education is the progressive reconstruction of experience in such a way as to give a deeper social content and to give the individual increased control over the process."——Dewey
