  • THE CULLOWHEE YODEL SOCIAL ACTIVITIES FOUNDER'S DAY AT THE NORMAL IS CELEBRATED Former Peabody College Students Celebrate The Day At Normal School. On Monday evening, February 18th, the former students of George Peabody College for Teachers, who are at the Cullowhee Normal School, celebrated Founder's Day with a banquet given in the dining room of the Home Economics Department, with other students in the county being present as guests. The dining room, which was decorated with the college colors, brought to mind the days spent at Peabody. The place cards were of blue, with the college insignia in red in the upper left-hand corner, and other touches of red and blue were seen about the room. Mr. W. E. Bird, who served as toastmaster in a very clever manner, added much to the pleasure and spirit of the occasion. Greetings from Dr. Payne, read by Miss Laura Kate Miller, were enjoyed by all. In a response to these greetings, Mr. E. H. Stillwell enumerated the benefits received from the College, and reminded those present what it is meaning to each of them. A brief sketch of the life of George Peabody was given by Miss Annie Ray, who emphasized the fact that he was a pioneer giver; one whose influence means more than his direct gift; and one who should be remembered, not only by the South, but by the whole nation. Without his gift the Peabody College of today Would not be possible. Mr. C. H. Allen, who reviewed the development of new Peabody College, showed clearly that the work of Dr. Payne has been a real contribution to the cause of education, and that without his efforts the gift of George Peabody would not mean to us what it does today. Other benefactors of the School were not forgotten. Mr. Allen spoke of the wonderful progress of the School, indicating that the beautiful buildings on the campus are only some of the tangible or measurable results that have been Dr. Payne, whose birthday came on this day, was given a toast by Miss Mary Dunn. Miss Alice Benton, in a pleasing way, also paid tribute to Dr. McMurry, likewise passing his birthday on the same day, as one who has been and is still rendering a large service to the College. Mr. W. 0. Hampton, in another toast, paid high tribute to Peabody College, including all connected with it. President H. T. Hunter, of the Cullowhee Normal School, spoke of the achievements of Peabody College, stating that the relatively large number present was an index of its influence. He spoke of Peabody as a school which prepares its students to meet the problems of the South, and expressed the feeling that it has a bright outlook, and is destined to hold a larger place as the years go by. At this time a, toast was given by Miss Nanette Walker to Miss Virginia Davis, Home Economics Instructor, and her group of young ladies who were responsible for preparing and serving the delightful food, after which the program was concluded by singing the college song, "Alma Mater." The following students and alumni were present: Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Bird, Mr. and Mrs. W. 0. Hampton, Mr. C. R. Bird, Mr. E. H. Stillwell, Mr. C. H. Allen, Miss Alice Benton, Miss Laura Kate Miller, Miss Annie Ray, Miss Mary Dunn, Miss Nanette Walker. Guests: Mr. and Mrs. H. T. Hunter, Miss Ora Cansler, Miss Elizabeth Grigsby. Regrets were expressed that Miss Nettie Brogdon, Supervisor of Jackson County Schools, who was called home the day before because of the death of her brother, could not be present. A telegram was forwarded to her, expressing sympathy, and stating that she had been greatly missed by the group. .;.*.;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;,.;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;..;.*.;..;.** * * * * •:< * * ************* {dealers in t Everything VALENTINE PARTY THE GREATER VOLUME, THE BETTER % VALUES—WE HAVE IT OUR 1923 SALES WERE $150,000.00 I One of the most interesting and enjoyable features of the season was the valentine party, given Thursday, February 14th, at the Moore Dormitory, when the girls entertained the boys of the School. The appearance of the reception hall was unusually striking, the color scheme of red and white being well carried out. Red and white paper hearts were strung overhead, and a soft pink light fell about the room from the hanging and wall chandeliers, decorated with red crepe paper. Pretty damsels glided here and there in their flounciest white dresses, adorned with hearts. The boys, upon entering the room, were each given a certain number of candy hearts. The girls then were allowed to exercise their leap year privileges, taking a heart with each accepted proposal. The one receiving the greatest number of hearts was to be awarded a prize. Miss Mabel Burnside, the successful contestant, with thirty-one hearts, was awarded the prize — a dressed up lolly-pop, after which she was called upon to stand and tell how she did it. Miss Dorothy Clement, who had charge of the entertainment, kept a succession of amusements going in the liveliest fashion. Soon every couple was supplied With pencil and paper, and instructions were given to write a telegram of nine words, with the initial letters of the words to spell "valentine." After the telegrams were all read, the judges selected the one submitted by Mr. Percy Parker and Miss Florine Smith as the best, who were awarded the prize. Partners were then selected and the spacious hall was given over for a time to the Virginia Reel. Immediately following this was the cake- walk, in which Miss Louise Town- send and Mr. Jesse May received the prize for appearing as the most graceful couple. Sylva Supply Co.
