Alexander, former director of the Cullowhee Training School, will be interested to read an account of his recent marriage to Miss Catherine Porter of Nashville, Tennessee, which took place Tuesday, March 27th, at the home of the bride. The following clipping was taken from the Nashville Tennessean on the date of March 28th: "Miss Mary Catherine Porter became the bride of Phillip Wade Alexander Tuesday, the wedding ceremony taking place at high-noon at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. W.

Brown from 8 to 10 Wednesday evening, April 4th, at a silver tea. Shortly after arrival the guests were invited into the large living room and seated on either side of a long table specially arranged and decorated for the occasion. Mrs. Brown presided and in a very impressive way extended a cordial welcome to those present. She then introduced Mrs. George Hampton, Secretary of the Waynesville District, who briefly set forth the endeavors (Continued on page 3) Landscape Engineer Praises Cullowhee Mr. E. S. Draper, the landscape engineer from Charlotte, recently made a visit to C. S. N. with a view to inspecting the landscape work that is being done on the campus and consulting with authorities about future development of the institution along the line of beautification and the placement of future buildings. Mr. Draper had previously made a complete survey and had drawn up plans as to development with especial reference to the laying out of walks, location of buildings, planting of shrubbery, etc. He seemed to be delighted with the progress that is being made in carrying out his plans. Mr. Draper says that by following an intelligent plan of development the Cullowhee campus can be made one of the most beautiful campuses in America. Alma Jacksoai Lorene ork^ I)e Special Unit of Spring Quarter Opens TWO NEW INSTRUCTORS ADDED TO FACULTY As the proof goes to press a word should be added in regard to the special six weeks unit of the Spring quarter. On the first registration day twenty-seven new students enrolled, and it is expected that at least forty will enter for this special unit. Quite a number of new courses are being offered, and it has been necessary to engage two new instructors for this work. The instructors are Miss Barbara Muellerschoen of Peabody College and Miss Stevenson of the University of South Carolina. The need of this work is felt by the school and we feel happy that we can accomodate those who have just closed their school term or who have just completed high school. We welcome the new students and faculty members to our school and feel that they will soon learn to love it and become adapted to our surroundings.

With the coming of spring it is almost impossible (Continued on page 3) Ruth Kirkpatrick Gives Piano Recital On Kiiu'aj evening, March 30, Miss Ruth Kirkpatrick, pupil of Miss Daisy Franklin, gave an interesting and well chosen piano recital. The program included selections from Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Grieg, Laidow, Debussy, and Nevin. The way in which Miss Kirkpatrick rendered each number did credit to herself and to her instructor. She displayed ability as a musician and showed unusual poise. Her best numbers were: Adagio Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven, To Spring by Grieg, Golliwog's Cake Walk by Debussy, and a two piano number, Venetian Love Song by Nevin-Sutro. To lend variety to the program Miss Alice Morgan, soprano, rendered a group of songs in a very pleasing manner. This is the last graduating recital of the season. This program, together with the one given by Miss Morgan, shows that Miss Franklin is doing very splendid work in the piano department Sunday School Class Enjoys Outing To the tune of rattling tin cups and buckets, thirty members of the Methodist Sunday School Class and their teacher, Miss Graves, started on a picnic Wednesday afternoon. To the tune of jokes, songs, and merry laughter, the picnickers wandered to the pretty hillside of the old reservoir. To the tune of merry crackling fires, sizzling weiners, boiling coffee, and such murmers as—"Gimme a pickle!", "Throw me a roll," etc., they ate weiners, pickles, rolls, coffee, and bananas. And then—to the tune of voices crying—"I've had enough," or "We've had the best time," and "Let's come again," the tired, though merry crowd, started for home again.
