Stye (EitHmtttp* f0M A Neighborly Call from the Hills to Kindred Spirits Everywhere Western Carolina Teachers College, Cullowhee, N. C, May 1, 1930 College Has Unexpected Week For Easter CONSTRUCTION WORK PROGRESSES. The students and faculty of Western Carolina Teachers College were given an unexpected week of Easter vacation. The construction work that is under way was responsible for it. An addition is being made to the dining-room and kitchen, which necessitated tearing away the intervening walls, laying new floors in the old kitchen, plastering, painting, re-locating equipment and steam and water pipes. The task of feeding two or three hundred students and teachers while this was going on presented grave difficulties to the dietitian and her force of workers. A vacation seemed the best solution, allowing the contractor time to complete the connection between the old and the new part of this building. Meals were served to the faculty members and students who remained in Cullowhee in an improvised dining-room in the Home Economics Laboratory. The vacation ended Sunday, April 27. Classes were resumed on Monday following. This vacation deferred the opening of the last six weeks special session, which was scheduled to begin on the 22nd of April. The new students registered on the 28th. SPRING COMES TO CULLOWHEE VALLEY Methodists Holding Series of Services Evangelistic services began at tn^ Methodist Church, Sunday morning, April 27, and will continue until Sunday, May 4. Reverend Mr. G. B. Clemmens, who is at present pastor of the Methodist Church in Sylva, is conducting the meeting. The services are beginning each evening at eight o'clock. During the week only one service will be held, but on Sunday there will be two services. W. R. Francis Appointed as Member of Board Announcement has been made by Governor O. Max Gardner of the appointment of Mr. W. R. Francis, of Waynesville, to fill the vacancy on the Board of Trustees of Western Carolina Teachers College created by the resignation of Mr. Reuben B. Robertson, of Canton. Mr. Francis, who is a young lawyer, is expected to be an asset to the board and the college, due to his enthusiastic interest in Western North Carolina. Hydro-Electric Plant Recently Completed WILL FURNISH COMMUNITY TOO The hydro-electric plant begun last August has just been completed. The plant was designed by Engineer Charles E. Waddell of Asheville, N. C. The dam and power house were built by Biltmore Concrete Company, also of Asheville. The machinery was furnished and installed by the James Leffel and Company of Springfield, Ohio. The new plant will be of much economic value to the college. It is estimated that it will save the college from ;$12 to $15 per day. The authorities hope that it will be possible to give twenty-four hour service when the plant is fully established. Besides furnishing the college with lights the plant will also provide for the community. The money received from this source goes to help the student loan fund of the college. President and Dean Make Commencement Address President H. T. Hunter and Dean W. E. Bird have recently served several schools in Western North Carolina by delivering commencement addresses. Dean Bird has spoken at the graduation exercises of the Jackson County Colored Consolidated School at Beta and at the Almond High School commencement. Mr. Hunter spoke to the Glenville High School Class and is scheduled to make the following addresses: Swannanoa, Buncombe County, High School, on May 1; Oak Hill, Caldwell County, High School, on May 9; and Canton High School, on May 23. B. S. Colburn Visits Campus Mr. B. S. Colburn of Asheville, North Carolina, was a Cullowhee visitor April 16th. Mr. Colburn is very much interested in Western North Carolina and has made a great collection of old Indian relics. He is also a very interesting speaker and has promised to come back and talk to the student body and faculty members in chapel. When he comes it is to be hoped that he will take Dean Bird's suggestion and bring a truck load of his various collections. Everyone is looking forward with pleasure to his coming. Fifth Grade Project Interesting On April 17, Miss Cordelia Camp presented the fifth grade of the Cullowhee Training School, in a program, directed by Miss Mary Alice Haigh critic teacher, and the following practice teachers: Mary Leslie, Ei selle Home, Dollie Curtis, Ruby Griffin, Irma Anderson, and Blanche Ledford.

After games and races had been enjoyed, the crowd gathered around a large bonfire where weiners, pickles, bacon, coffee, and marshrnallows were enjoyed by all present. Silence "God must have loved the Silence, for he laid A stillness on the sunset and the dawn; Upon the moment when the bird has gone, Leaving a note high-hung within the glade More sweet than when he sang it;,moons that pass Too full of forests changelessness for sound— Creeping of little frosts along the ground Silence of growth among the summer grass. "God must have deeply loved the Silence— For is there one of us who has not heard Promptings to silence that he speaks not of ? What of an old remorse; a hope that is Too deeply hoped; what of a grief outgrown; And silent, old, unconquerable love?" —Anonymous.
