SUBSCRIPTION RATES School Term $1.00 "THE ROAD BACK" As this column is being written there are hundreds of Alumni in thiu and other states who aro taking the road back to Cullowhee, the valley of lilies; for today is Home-Coming Day. Before them they hate the prospect of a day for reminiscing, for happy memories, for happy miseries; yes memories come that are so mellowed and treasured that they hurt— With lingering sentiment both sad and sweet, Old scenes to view, old dreams renew. Old friends to greet, new friends to meet. From fleeing days, one day to grasp The fraying garment of the past. > One day to talk of dreams come true, And then at sunset sigh adieu. We hope that no misfortune shall blight even in one heart the joy that we wish for all. When the time for parting comes, as it must come at the end of each day, we reluctantly return all to the world Outside again and return to our studies revelling in the thought that Ibey were ours once more even if only for a day. And they—we hope—as they go their way—will take memories renewed, spirit, rekindled, and lovo for Cudowhee and what she stands for redoubled in their hearts. We wish for ourselves and them many happy Home-Comings here- May life be kind to them in the year ahead; and when autumn comes again to robe our hills in new splendor, may loyalty and love turn their thoughts once more to Cullowhee and the road back. I By C. R. H. Former studenta who have returned to the campus for the day will be interested in seeing the pictures which have been reproduced on the page for the societies- Perhaps one will see his old roommate, or even himself, sitting up there with a very special grin on for the benefit of someone else who is going to look at the picture. They were great days, and spirit ran high among the students. Then, someone else might like to look at the hall as pictured on the page. He will see up there a seat where he used to sit by So-and- So; or, he will be reminded of something else which occurred when he attended Society meetings. Above all, he will remember with what glory Western Carolina waved her colors when he was an Erosophian or a Columbian, and will feel in his heart an indefinable something that he has not experienced since learning that the societies were not functioning. Now, however, he can raise his head and laugh at the world again, for the societies live! They live! Their absence was too marked in 'the life of the campus, and some indnstrious ones took it upon them- to bring back the thing to Cullowhee that at one time bound her .sons and daughters in a tie of spirit and love. 'THEN AND NOW ! AT CULLOWHEE f IS DESCRIBED ,'3>ay8 Institution Moves on With "Advancement time Brings" When time ru.sbes on as it does, many can lie the changes m a few short years. Sometimes we arc eady for the change and can adjust ourselves to it easily; then a- K'ain we are not so ready and can- adjUSl so easily. Happy is the Individual or institution that can I on with the advancement time brings. When I arrived on top of the hill Davies Hall in 1*21, having rid- n down the mountain behind a pair of trusty mules in a light wagon, individual brake, Cullowhee School was not so large as it is at present. Davies Dormitory was filled with girls and teachers, with Mrs. Flinton as Matron.

A little girl in the senior class would like to know where Buster t few nights ugo about midnight. I suggest that she ask some of the freshman girls, to see if any of them happens to know. The book store window is a popular place for boys to compare the beauty of their legs. No joking, Clone's are beautiful. An outstanding male member of the freshmen class would like to know the following: Is a true girl friend supposed to tell about your personal affairs, and how can one keep from getting mixed up with too many girls at once? Since I don't know the answers, I refer him to Victor Workman or Al White.
