  • xnrcJi CULLOWHEE YODEL A Neighborly Call From the Hills to Kindred Spirits Every where CULLOWHEE, NORTH CAROLINA, FEBRUARY, 1924 NO. 1. WELCOME, COMRADE! * The President bids the heart- " * iest of welcome to the "Yodel" • * the newest comer in the field of ! * school journalism. His own voice " * is yet, unfortunately, strange to a * many ears. He calls, and some " ' do not recognize his voice, or do * * not own his comradeship. He. * * yearns that an increasing num- * * her of promising youth, and of • * those who would lead childhood * * up the gentle slopes toward the * * heights of a fuller manhood and * * womanhood, shall hear the call * ' from our beloved Cullowhee hill- * * top. The "Yodel" comes, not as * ' the voice of any individual, but * * as the combined call of the Cul- * * lowhee family. The President * ' is happy to have his own insis- * ' tent call merged with that of his * ' comrades; so that, with happy * ' expectancy, we issue our united * ' la-ee-la-ee o! to the wide, wide * ' world. H. T. HUNTER. Preparing For Spring Quarter The administrative office force is kept busy those days, answering letters of inquiry from prospective students. President Hunter says the applications already exceed the available rooms; but the contractors have agr«ed to rush the work on the wings of the new dormitory, making avuil- able about (itteen additional rooms by February 25, the date of the opening of the Spring Quarto'. This will make it possible for the school to accommodate about thirty mere j young women this spring than was formerly planned for. It is thought that every addit-.onal room will he engaged before the Winter Quarter closes. A number of additional young men are also expected to matriculate in February. It is now evicted flat the work on the new wit or system will be completed w.ithin the next throe weeks. This will give Cullowhee a modem water system, one of the best in the country, including aburdance of mountain spring water, i 200,000- gallon reservoir, fire hydrant", etc. This, with other recent improvements including gymnasium, shower baths, etc., together with prospects of the largest spring attendance in the history of the institution, makes the outlook decidedly promising.
