  • A Neighborly Call from the Hills to Kindred Spirits Everywhere Western Carolina Teachers College, Cullowhee, N. C, February 1, 1930 Board Meets At College Recently Members Pleased With Progress in Physical Developments On Friday, January 17, at the desire of Mr. H. T. Hunter, president of the college, and Mr. Reuben B. Robertson, chairman of the Board, a special meeting of the Board of Directors was held at Cullowhee. The purpose of this meeting was to look over and inspect the new projects being built, which are in connection with the plans for a four year standard college. The new projects are the erection of a hydro-electric plant, a new dormitory, a dining room extension, new garages which have already been finished, and also an extension of the gymnasium which has doubled its seating capacity. The members of the Board arrived in time for lunch and were served in the college dining hall. After lunch a business meeting was held, after which the visitors were shown the new projects by Mr. Hunter. All members of the Board expressed themselves as being well pleased with the work which is now being carried on and pledged themselves to help make Cullowhee an outstanding school. The members of the Board present were: Mr. Reuben B. Robertson, Canton, chairman of the Board; Mr. T. W. Bird, Asheville; Mr. C. C. Buchanan, Sylva, Mr. J. E. Coburn, Bryson City; Mrs. Giles W. Cover, Andrews; Mr. N. B. McDevitt, Marshall; Mr. T. H. Shipman, Brevard; Members of the Board who were unable to attend are Mr. J. L. Hyatt, Burnsville, and Mr. C. C. Bennett, Asheville. HELEN RHEA Born, Sylva, North Carolina, January 14, 1913 Died, Sylva, North Carolina, January 16, 1930 Instructor Has Article Cullowhee Has In Sociology Magazine Distinguished Visitor Board Committee Selects Furniture For New Dormitory President H. T. Hunter of Western Carolina Teachers College went last week to High Point where a committee, appointed by the Board of Trustees and, of which he is a member, made selections of the furniture to be used in the new $100,000 dormitory being built at the college. The Board of Trustees at their quarterly meeting at Cullowhee appointed Mrs. Giles W. Cover, of Andrews, Messrs. N. B. McDevitt, of Marshall, Erie G. Stillwell, College Architect, and President Hunter to form a committee to select and purchase the furniture for the new dormitory. The committee met in High Point and attended the Semi-Annual Furniture Exposition. Due to the illness of Mrs. Cover, she was unable to be present. However, the committee secured prices, and made selections, but did not buy pending the approval of Mrs. Cover in accordance with expectations of the Board of Trustees. (Continued on page 3) Faculty members and students of Western Carolina Teachers College have expressed an interest in an article on "Rural Social Distance of Normal School Students" by Mr. John S. Seymour, professor of rural education at the college. This article, which appeared in the January-February issue of Sociology and Social Research, an international journal combining the journal of applied sociology and bulletin of social research published bi-monthly, states as its purpose a "study to ascertain within a limited scope and among a limited number of persons something of what prospective young teachers are thinking, and what attitude they have developed towards rural life." Mr. Seymour compiled his data from questionnaires answered by 346 women students in four teachers training institutions in North Carolina and was able to draw six interesting conclusions perhaps the most interesting of which was that the following tendencies manifested themselves in the choice of teaching positions; (a) those of the group who had no urban experience would choose the strictly rural schools; (b) those who had had no rural experience would choose the strictly urban schools; (c) those who had had both country and urban experiences would choose small town schools. Mr. Seymour is to be congratulated on this study, as a recognition for which he was elected to membership in the American Sociological Society. President B. B. Dougherty of Appalachian State Teachers College and Dr. James E. Hillman, director of certification in State Department of Education of North Carolina, were visitors at Western Carolina Teachers College Wednesday, January 15, for the purpose of helping plan a curricula for the extension of the college from a two to a four year college. The work of Dr. Hillman and President Dougherty was indispensable. Both of the men were experienced, President Dougherty having just completed a curricula for Boone, which has just been increased from a two to a four year standard college. President Dougherty when asked what he thought of Western Carolina Teachers College said, "You are doing the finest work of any teacher's training school in Western Carolina, and finer spirit is shown by the students at this college than at any I have visited." The college officials are very proud of Dr. Hillman's and President Dougherty's visit and are still more grateful for the help which they gave, while here, in the Herculean task of planning the new curricula. South Carolinians Plan Club Banquet Young People Active In Religious Work The Epworth League of the Methodist Church in Cullowhee has elected new officers. Its members plan to bring the league to a standard of excellence this quarter, according to its president, Mildred Starnes. The program for Sunday evening, February 2, is on "Bridge Builders." The Baptist Young Peoples Union of Cullowhee has been divided into two unions, "The Live Wires," and "The Ever Readys." The presidents of these are Vera Jones and Elizabeth Duckworth. A friendly rivalry is manifest between the two unions as they are both striving to be first to gain the Standard of Excellence. The program for Sunday evening, February 2 is "Growth Through Bible Reading, Meditation and Prayer." The outstanding extra curricular activity for the coming week will be the South Carolina Club banquet to be held at the College Inn Sandwich Shop at six o'clock Monday evening, February 3. At this time a three course dinner will be served, presided over by Miss Ruth Whitmire, president of the club, as toastmistress. Mr. J. S. Seymour is on the program for a humorous talk. Clever invitations bearing the Palmetto State flag are out to some twenty- five faculty members and students who hail from South Carolina and are now connected with the North Carolina school. Mrs. Lucy Posey is the only self-professed North Carolinian who has received an invitation to this affair. Place cards will correspond with the invitation, and the decorations are to be in blue and white. Jackson County Bank Plans Unique Contest Gold Pieces Named as Awards for Winners Mr. D. M. Cowan, cashier of the Jackson County Bank, has recognized the value of bringing before our young people the opportunity and urgent need of thrift habits. To this end he has proposed to sponsor the Yodel in the name of the bank one of the most unique contests ever presented to the schools of Jackson county. It is known as the "President Contest", and it carries valuable cash prize awards to the winners. Below will be found full explanation and In a series of eight letters, which come from Mr. Cowan, and which will be published as advertisements over the signature of the Jackson County Bank, will be eight quotations from eight different presidents of the United States, concerning thrift, economy, or saving, and the Bank will offer seventeen dollars and fifty cents in gold as prizes, to the students in the grammar schools, high schools or colleges of Jackson county, for the best essay on thrift, coupled with the correct answers to all questions asked in the series of advertisements or letters. In order to give the contest as wide publicity in the county as possible, the letters will be republished in The Jackson County Journal, immediately following their original publication in the Yodel. (Continued on page 3) Community Players To Present "Message From Mars" Feb. 6 On Thursday evening, February 6, the student body of Western Carolina Teachers College and the people of Cullowhee community wil have the opportunity to see "A Message From Mars." The play, which will be given by the Community Theatre Players, will be the fourth artist number given in the college auditorium this season. This play is a comedy with a moral of unselfishness. Horace Parker, central figure in the play, is a self- centered, selfish, business man. Annoyed by the constant presence of his family and fiancee, he vturns to his favorite, astronomy. He falls asleep over the question of habitation on Mars. He dreams a messenger from Mars comes to him and shows him the errors of his life. He awakes a changed man and wins back the love, honor, and respect of his family and associates. It has been said that "A Message From Mars" approaches most nearly the universal drama of any play ever written because it strikes at and reveals in a very charming and fascinating way the best known passion (Continued on page 3)
