Training Class Held At Methodist Church Beginning Sunday evening, January 13 and continuing through Friday evening, January 19, a Sunday School training class was held at the Methodist Church by Mr. L. T. Tuttle, a brother of the Methodist pastor. This class waa open to every one beyond seventeen years of age. Several of the teachers and students from the Normal School attended. Also, there were several community people who took the course. All who participated expressed their deep appreciation to Mr. Tuttle for giving them the opportunity of taking the work. Kveryone felt greatly benefited by it. JLiLJL_CUJiii OW H E E YODEL Study Current Events We live in the present and prepare f°r the future. In this preparation we must have a background of history to be able to understand the events of today. However, current events should carry by far the more "tal interest. To know the Hoover, *e Al Smith, and the McLean of today is far more interesting and useful than to know the Caesar, the Hannibal, and the Napolean of other ages. Ample opportunity for studying current events is provided for in the llbrary at Cullowhee. AmonE the PaPers and magazines you will find |he following: Literary Digest, Out- . k' Current History, Review of Re- ^ews, Scientific American, Popular panics, Asheville Citizen, New 'nrK Times, News and Observer and several other papers. PROF. R. L. MADISON Founder and Former President. The story of the beginning and development of Cullowhee is inseparable from that of the life and work of its founder, Professor R. L. Madison. Its history in the earlier period is but the record of the struggles and perseverance of this man, who chose to give his time and talent to the planting of a small school in the heart of the mountains, which has continued to grow and bear fruit. Professor Madison was born in Staunton, Virginia, February 17, 18G7, and spent his boyhood in Lexington, Virginia, where his father, Colonel Robert Lewis Madison, M. D., was physician and surgeon at the Virginia Military Institute. His greatgrandfather was a brother of President James Madison, and his mother was Helen Banister of Petersburg, Virginia. He is an alumnus of the University of Chattanooga, from which institution he received the degrees of Ph. B. and A. M. At the time of receiving his baccalaureate degree, he had the double distinction of being a first- honor student and the youngest man ever graduated by his Alma Mater. He had made definite plans to take up the study of medicine, but bein? advised by his family physician to protect himself from a threatened physical breakdown, he gave up his cherished hope and sought to renew his strength with country food and mountain air. Thus, it was by fate and chance that he should take up the profession of teaching and that Cullowhee should become the recipient of his labors. Professor Madison came to Cullowhee in 1889, and opened a small school, from which time Cullowhee's history dates. With the exception of eight years from 1912 to 1920 while Prof. A. C. Reynolds was in charge, Professor Madison gave his untiring services, as he led the School through every successive stage of growth and development. In 1923, he resigned as President of the School, but the Board of Trustees were desirous of retaining his services, and he accepted the professorship in foreign languages under President Hunter's new administration, which position he still The appreciation of Professor Madison's past and present services at Cullowhee can't be embodied in words. His life is marked by the spirit devotion, self-sacrifice, and love. Truly, it can be said of him that his history is the story of one who is al ways ready to serve. No finer tribute could be paid him than that found in President Hunter's Annual Report recently published, which is quoted here with his permission: "I hope I may be indulged a personal word about Professor R. L. Madison, my predecessor, who is still in the faculty. Did you ever stop to consider the exceeding delicateness of his position? A man becomes greatly attached to an institution which he has helped to found and which he has nursed through a precarious and struggling infancy. It comes Lo be almost as a part of himself. Professor Madison, up to the time of his resignation as President in 1923, had spent a total of 26 years at Cullowhee. To retire from the management of the school just at the time the State began to make liberal appropriations, and to see another enter into the fruits of his long labor, call for a degree of self-effacement and of equanimity which few possess. Add to this the additional fact, that Professor Madison has quietly taken a subordinate place under one whose ideals for the school and whose methods of administration were markedly in contrast with his own, and you can get an appreciation of the exacting demands which the position makes upon the innate kindliness of his spirit. A less magnanimous soul might easily have become embittered by the experience." Interesting Chapel Hazel Martin Honored Program Rendered By Birthday Party The students of Cullowhee State Normal enjoyed a very interesting program in chapel Friday, January 18. Miss Edith Rogers, accompanied by Miss Feagans, entertained the audience by singing two solos which brought forth much applause. Mr. L. T. Tuttle, brother of Rev. M. Q. Tuttle, who at that time was conducting a Teacher Training Course at the Methodist Church, made a short talk. He spoke on "What I Shall Do To Make My Life Worth While." In his talk, he emphasized that it was not so much what occupation or profession one followed as the way one does a thing he starts out to do. To make the point clear in the minds of his audience, he told several stories relating to college life. The audience was dismissed by Rev. M. Q. Tuttle, pastor of the Methodist Church at Cullowhee. Just before the departure of the Cullowhee students for the Christmas holidays, several of the girls gave Hazel Martin a lovely birthday party. Glee Garner's room, where the party was held, was artistically decorated, the color scheme being green and red. A table holding the birthday cake and other delicious eats was also decorated in Christmas colors. Every one enjoyed the party. The guitar was played by Ruth Jenkins and songs and jokes were given by all. Those present were: Hazel Martin, Edith Martin, Ruth Jenkins, Car- ma Ashe, Glee Garner, Edna Teague, Catheleen Cook, Annie Roe Ferger- son, Nell Aycock, and Ruth Whit- mire. Hazel has not yet reached the age when birthdays are looked on with dread. Her spirits seemed very high, Five Years of the Cullowhee Normal Library In carrying on a definite project, we must now and then take account of stock to ascertain the progress made. In glancing over the years from 1923 to 1928, one can easily see that the Cullowhee State Normal has much cause for gratification and for being determined to "press toward the mark." In 1923, in one large room, the library was equipped with a stove for heating and with long, pine tables and seats fastened together after the manner of entertainment chairs. It had not yet begun to give attention to the care of magazines and newspapers; consequently these were to be found scattered on the tables or the floor. The sun beat pitilessly in at the windows with no window shades. By 1928, an office had been cut off the main room, where cataloging could be done with books, and shelves could be provided for unbound magazines; also, a bench where the books could be prepared for cataloging had been provided. Shades had been hung at the windows. To the equipment of the library sixteen library tables had been added sixty-four chairs. Ten new book cases also had been added, and an excellent lighting system had been installed. It has been the policy of the librarian to make use of any and all available material, and in so doing she has utilized a large screened discarded food case by turning the screen to the wall and the shelves to the outside as a case for bound magazines. The binding of magazines was begun in 1924, and now presents a fair nucleus for a valuable collection. An electric clock has been presented, and two beautiful and valuable pictures have been secured. In the matter of books, we have grown from 1332 in 1924 to 5798 in 1929. The quality of the collection is excellent, all books being usable for culture and pleasure. The hours of the library are from 8:00 to 5:00, with two additional hours in the evening. The reference work has grown by leaps and bounds, and it has also given rise to friendly comment by surprised visitors from other sections. For the last two years, the reading space has been quite inadequate for the work done. In June, 1927, there appeared in the "N. C. Library Notes" the following statement at the end of a questionnaire given to ascertain the quality of a standard library—"If the questions can be answered in the affirmative, the library will not only supply what the state hopes to find— but will be a daily demonstration of what a library in the school can accomplish." The Cullowhee Normal School Library can answer this test in the affirmative and hence claims the right to be considered an asset to the ELEANOR J. GLADSTONE, B. L., Librarian '23-'28. and she readily entered into all the plays and games that had been planned in her honor. After drinking to Hazel's health and wishing her many more happy birthdays, the little party broke up, and each went to her respective room wishing that someone could have a birthday party every night.
