  • ®lji> (SLtdlmxjifBt f 0M A Neighborly Call from the Hills to Kindred Spirits Everywhere Cullowhee, North Carolina, November 15, 1928 Cullowhee Teachers Attend Association At Hendersonville Almost all of the teachers of the Cullowhee Training School and High School attended the Western North Carolina District Education Association at Hendersonville, October 26th. Our Cullowhee teachers were well represented in the various groups and on various committees. Mr. Bird was chairman of the English Council, Miss Camp of the grammar grade group, and Mr. Stillwell of the social science group, Mr. Stillwell, however, was unable on account of illness to attend the convention. Miss Allen spoke to the grammar grade department on "The Teaching of North Carolina History by Problems." Her speech was so effective that her group immediately passed a resolution addressed to Gov. A. W. McLean, endorsing his recent movement for teaching North Carolina history in the State. The teachers in the western district offered every aid they could possibly contribute to this movement. Miss Goodman was made president of this committee. Miss Camp was made president of the committee of recreational reading of this district. The recreational reading group plans on having appropriate booklets made by this institution. These will be sent out to the entire district. Miss Ray gave a very pleasing and interesting talk to the primary teachers. All that were present report very helpful suggestions gleaned from outside speakers. Among these were Dr. Albert S. Cook, state superintendent of Maryland Schools, and Dr. Milo B. Hillegas, professor of elementary education in Teachers' College, Columbia University. The last and perhaps the most inspirational address of the convention was given by Dr. Harry Clark of Furman University, on "The Bible and Literature." Cullowhee Training School Plant Being Remodeled for Greater Facilities Methodists Welcome Cullowhee Students On the evening of October 17, the members of the Cullowhee Methodist church delightfully entertained the faculty and the students of the Cullowhee State Normal. e Benton had charge of the program. Mr. Folger, the pastor, made a very interesting talk half of the church in which he welcomed us to the church services. Mr. Blrd, superintendent of the Sunday School, made a short talk on which he gave us a hearty welcome to the Sunday School. He made us feel that each of us has a part in making the Sunday School at Cullowhee what it should be. Miss Reams spoke in be- (Continued on page 3) About $3,000 have been spent recently on the remodeling and equip- ing of the Training School Building, which was unfinished and not completely furnished when it was purchased from the county. President Hunter made a special trip to Raleigh and secured, through the Budget Commission, the funds with which to do the work. Five new rooms have been made available, three of which are being completely equipped for the use of the Home Economic Department. By making one class room smaller, it has been posible to make a hall through the building and as office near the entrance for the Director of the Training School. Concrete walks have been constructed around the building. When the Training School building was taken over by the Normal School, the water system was in very bad condition. New fountains have been installed and a complete over-hauling of the sewerage system has been Besides giving more space and more comfortable class rooms, these improvements have added much to the attractiveness of the building, and both teacher and pupils, alike, are very grateful for these valuable additions. Hallowe'en Party at Seniors Entertain Cullowhee Normal Foot Ball Yodelers On Monday evening, October the twenty-ninth, the faculty and the boys of Cullowhee State Normal School gave the girls of the school a lovely Hallowe'en party. The gymnasium building, where the fete was held, was beautifully decorated with autumn leaves and glowing Jack-o'-lanterns. Everything had a ghostly air. This formed a good background for the procession of gaily costumed and black-masked girls who arrived at eight o'clock. White-robed ghosts stood on the porch and stairways. Hideous faces looked even more weired in the dim lights. Trying to find who the other fellow was, furnished lots of fun. In the twinkling of an eye, as it were, familiar faces and figures had changed beyond recognition. After all the guests arrived, every one joined in a march across the room, keeping time with the music. The very atmosphere seemed changed with the spirit of fun. The jovialty of the march was increased by unmasking. Interesting games and contests were held. All who cared to had the privilege of dancing. Delightful refreshments were served, after which, all too soon, it was time to go. Everyone had a fine time; went home feeling much better after the social hours together. The girls have a deep feeling of gratitude to the faculty and the boys for their entertainment. On Monday afternoon, Nov. 6, the Senior girls gave a picnic on the East La Porte Island in honor of the Foot Ball Squad. The guests, other than the foot ball boys, were President and Mrs. Hunter, Dean and Mrs. Bird, and the Senior boys. As the "motorcade" of cars and trucks which conveyed this merry group to the island, rolled to a stop, the smoke from two big bonfires was seen climbing through the air. The students literally tumbled out of the trucks and rushed over the island to where they gathered around one campfire and played many games. The "cooking crew," who had carried many mysterious bundles and kettles, took possession of the other fire, and it was only a short while until the savory odor of chicken told their secret. Then came the cry, "from the bread line!" President and Mrs. Hunter led the line of hungry boys and girls to the picnic table, where their plates were filled and refilled with chicken parlu, cole shaw, pickles, butter and rolls, and their cups with coffee. The group again gathered around the fire, and while some told ghost stories, others roasted apples, toasted marshmallows, or licked lolly-pops. Just before the picnickers departed there was a moment of silent prayer offered for our friend and playmate, Grason Cope, who was unable to be with us on account of a serious hurt received in the last game. Cullowhee Students Attend Conference Four Cullowhee girls, Louise Perry, Grace Loftis, Fannie Mae Valentine, and Flora Gilbert left Thursday Oct. 18, for the Baptist Student Union conference at Chowan College, (Continued on page 3) Rev. Folger Leaves for Spruce Pine Pastorate The many friends and helpers of Rev. J. S. Folger, pastor of the Cullowhee Methodist Church, regret very much to hear that he is not to be with us next year. (Continued on page 3) Cullowhee Alumni Meet For Banquet at Hendersonville On Friday evening, October 26, at 6 o'clock, former students, alumni, and faculty members of Cullowhee State Normal met in the dining room of the Jefferson Hotel at Hendersonville to enjoy the first Cullowhee Alumni Banquet held away from Cullowhee. Arrangements for the occasion were made by Mr. J. M. Plem- mons, president of the Alumni Association. Upon entering the dining room, which was beautifully decorated with purple and gold, the group sang our "Alma Mater" with loyal pep and enthusiasm characteristic of Cullowhee students. President Hunter acted as toastmaster and called upon Dean Bird, Dr. Highsmith and Superintendent Allen, for short talks. Also, Mr. W. C. Reed, principal of Cullowhee High School, made a very interesting talk. A short business session was held at which time a report was made by Dean Bird. This report was from the Committee, appointed at the Alumni Banquet held at Commencement, to work up a set of resolutions for the Alumni Association. Following are the recommendations of the special committee appointed by the Cullowhee Alumni Association at its annual meeting at Cullowhee, May 24, 1928. This committee was appointed to consider the best means of providing a part-time secretary at Cullowhee to collect data concerning alumni and to work out jointly with the president of the Association and the president of the School methods of promoting the interests of both alumni and the school. The committee recommends: 1. That all former students of the school be recognized as eligible to membership to the general alumni association. 2. That each person affiliating with the association be required to pay an annual fee of $2.00, which gives the privilege of a year's free subscription (Continued on page 3) Yodelers Making Good Showing in Foot Ball For the first time in three years the pigskin is in action at Cullowhee. The number of boys have been so small that there has been no demand for this type of athletics, but this year with an increased number of boys, a real wide awake foot ball team has been organized under the direction of J. M. PlemmoTis as coach. On account of the opening of the school the team got off to a rather late start, but has been showing up exceedingly well Toy winning two of the three games played. With only ten clays practice behind them, they journeyed to Bryson City to take on Coach Mencken's aggre- (Continued on page 3)
