This booklet came from the third annual debate between the Thencanic Society and Mu Alpha, the debate society at the Peddie Institute (today the Peddie School) of Hightstown, New Jersey. Though it does not include the year, it is most likely dated to around 1900-1904 given the presence of Kenneth H. Lanning (Model Class of 1904). In addition to several musical pieces by the State Schools Orchestra, the event featured a debate on restricting immigration into the United States. No transcription, as the booklet is typed.

Townshend, Vt 1/87" and "this belonged to Mrs. Keppele Hall -- aunt of Mrs. Moore's husband."

A side view of the Normal and Model Schools, with the Model School in the foreground. The image, although at its core a photograph, has been colorized and touched-up by an unknown person, perhaps the photographer.
