"Montani semper liberi"

This publication is the result of much hard work and many sleepless nights in an effort to present to you a complete history of the year '23-'24 at Weaver.

We extend to Prof. W. E. Powell and to Mr. J. H. Burrus our hearty apprecia- tion for their untiring efforts and interest in making this volume a success.

When in future years the troubles of this life become a burden, take down the old dust covered Mountaineer and dream of the happy days spent with our Alma Mater. If this volume brings hap- piness to any one our labors will not have been in vain.

ypMONG the mighty granite hills, .T-X, In a beauteous mountain land Of shining rivers and sparkling rills. Is found a college grand.

In a grove of sturdy oak and pine,

On a camp-ground's holy sod, Where the sun shines bright and the cli- mate's fine.

And nature points to God.

There at the foot of Hamburg's Hill, On Reams' Creek's sacred ground.

Where everything is hushed and still, 'Tis there old Weaver's found.

So dark and somber are her walls, For long years have they stood.

She's gathered youths within her halls As only Weaver could.

She sends her students far and near,

And as they pass her door, She bids them go — without a fear,

And turns to welcome more.

Thus may her students yet to come

Be always strong and bright, And for each crisis of our home

There be a "Weaverite.

Oh. Alma Mater, may each son

Thy fond traditions bear, And for each triumph to be won,

Be brave and fearless there.

*5^J HE soft evening breezes are gently blowing over the greensward and stately oaks \jy of Weaver College. Tt is the night of graduation. Is not this the night of promise to the class of '24, the promise of a broader and more useful future? Can there be any more sublime conception than that of the vast opportunities offered to the seekers of knowledge in this modern age?

As we glance over the nineteen graduates of this night, our thoughts go back to our Freshman year. There are only two of the present students who started out with the large Freshman class, Mary Powlas and Margaret Aiken. The same two went through Sophomore year together, joined by one other, Howell Byrd. In the Junior year these were joined by a large crowd of students, twelve of whom are with us yet — John Vernon, Ethel Aycock, Myron Tatum, Clara Garrison, Joseph Young, Mae McClure. Oakley Croy, Annie Mae Ulmer, Reba Perry, Bonner Boger, Claude Reece, Murray Walters, Thomas Pack, Louise Williams. Two more were added in our Senior year, whom we were delighted to welcome — Marvin Hodge and T. A. Jones. We are not strong in numbers, but then we consider quality more desirable.

On the eve of our separation, we live over in memory the events of these crowded years. Some of these I will enumerate on account of their significance to us: April Fool's day when we ran away and lunched on "hot-dogs," in a beautiful glade; the baseball game with Carson-Newman College, with the social afterwards, which was so heartily enjoyed; the snow scenes, sleigh rides, kodaking parties and rabbit hunts of the Freshman year. Although we were a busy class, we did not forget those in need. We made numerous trips out to Miss McClure's to carry provisions and to cut firewood.

In our Sophomore year a steam heating plant was installed in the girls' dormitory, much to the delight of all. This year was also marked by the erection of the boys' dormitory donated by Mr. Skinner, who was once a student of Weaver College. Old Weaver received two other generous gifts during this year, the new athletic field, given by Mr. H. A. Dunham, and beautiful Lake Louise, donated by Mrs. Louise Moore. The former has witnessed numbers of hard fought battles ending in a few defeats, and many a glorious victory; along the banks of the latter we have enjoyed numerous delightful strolls during social hours.

In our Junior year, we recall with delight the hike to the pottery plant when it rained so hard that we returned in cars; the picnic at Reems Creek where one of our number received an unexpected shower bath; and the picnic at Lake Louise on Mrs. Pylant's birthday.

At the beginning of our Senior year, it gave us much pleasure to welcome into our college life President and Mrs. Trowbridge. The growth of the new library, to which so many friends generously contributed, has pleased us very much. The Thanksgiving football victory over Mars Hill will long be remembered by the class of '24. The dull monotony of school work has been broken by many plays, lyceums, concerts in Ashe- ville, socials, and hikes with trips to Mount Mitchell, Mount Pisgah and Chimney Rock. By no means of least importance among the social events of the last two years were the Junior-Senior banquets. All these left golden memories tinged with sadness, for we were soon to leave our places to others.

Tonight the graduates of 1924 hold their last class meeting. We cannot guess what the future holds for us, nor can we see how widely separated our walks in life may lie; but there are precious memories and bonds of affection which will always keep us united in spirit. Our faith in each other, our loyalty to our Alma Mater, and our devotion to the ideals of courage and truth and honor which she has inspired will be our creed. In this faith, though we reach not fame nor fortune, we will hope to receive the Master's "Well Done" for a life spent in honorable service for others.

May the future appear a golden sunrise of opportunity to this class of one-thousand

nine-hundred and twenty-four.

Louise Williams, '24

He still retains a fondness for eats and girls, in fact', his tastes are Epi- curean.

Tom is practical and yet amusing. He says that he never lets study interfere with his education. Tom is one of the most popular boys in school and has a wonderful gift of making friends even with his rivals. That he possesses executive ability is shown by the fact that he is president of practically every student organization on the campus. No need to wish him success. We believe he will have it, anyway.

He can always be relied upon to perform any task assigned to him.

'"f^L HE NATIVE OAKS slowly waving their brances at the gentle touch of dying wind, KJ the lowing of the herd in the distance as they were homeward driven, the first faint star peeping from the great arch of the darkly blue sky, the de'ep hush over the wide space and then the round red rim of the full moon slowly rising above the far lofty mountain tops. This was the picture as I sat at the window in the east end of my room. As I sat there watching the gentle moon slowly climb through the heavens some spirit unknown told me that this was that wonderful radiant night, when the goddess of the future was to reveal to me the destiny of those whose school life was linked with mine.

Lured by the brilliant tints of the eastward heavens I left the large noisy dormitory and sought the haven of the sloping, grassy hillside, where a commanding view of the whole wide heavens was mine. Idly lying there, watching the rosy glow from the sky and the timid peeping forth of the tiny stars, I paid no heed to the flight of time. In the drowsy stillness I realized that the mountain breeze was lulling me to sleep.

While slumbering peacefully on the sloping hillside, a vision piercing the veil of the future, appeared to me in that state of mind called dreaming. In the future I could see no other than myself wandering along the shores of a foreign country, where I had gone to assume my life's work as a teacher of the word of God. This was one of those many times I had wandered along the shores, while the gentle moon lighted my pathway, wandering and longing for those old familiar faces and voices of long ago I became tired and sat down on the sandy shore, just as a wave pushed itself upon the beach. I was closely watching the waves subside, when all at once I noticed a tiny shell, much unlike the others, had been left at my feet by the wave in its rush back to the great deeps. I picked up the shell and examined it closely, I saw that it had in its pearly hollow a paper telling me just where my dear old classmates of 1924 were and what they were doing.

As I opened the paper, my eyes fell on a very familiar name, Ethel Aycock, better known to us as "Shorty." But much to my surprise, I found that she had given up her. career as a concert pianist and was playing the character of Maggie in a vaudeville while Bill Stack represented Jiggs to perfection.

Margaret Aiken was helping Madame Curie in her experiments with radium in the latter's laboratory in Paris. I was not at all surprised to learn this, as Margaret spent the greater part of her college days working out experiments, provided Professor Church- well would help her.

Bonner Boger, after completing his course at Trinity College, was one of the world's most famous evangelists. We always thought that surely one of our number would take advantage of the religious training received at Weaver, but never one time thought that this would be Bonner Boger.

Who would have thought it! Howell Byrd, after being encouraged by his devoted wife, had at last received his degree from Harvard and was professor of his favorite study, Education, at Chicago University.

Oakley Croy, commonly called "Trombone," having been the most intellectual mem- ber of our class, had caused his classmates to expect great things of him; so it was with very much disappointment that I learned that he had not climbed to the heights of fame as was expected, but was now on the job advertising the Ringling Brothers Circus, by playing a trombone on the public squares of all the large cities.

Clara Garrison, while she was taking a special course in ethics of personal beauty. in New York City, caused her teachers to open their eyes. They could very easily see that Clara was a very promising young woman at such a profession, so they at once, after she completed her course, gave her a position in the school. I was greatly elated to learn that Clara had been so successful in her profession.

Marvin Hodge, who once took so much interest in the Co-eds at Weaver College, was still playing at love. He had been acclaimed the greatest interpreter of Shakespeare since Southern. His favorite roles were Romeo and Benedict. This came not as a great surprise to me because Marvin always lead his class in the Shakespearean Course at Weaver College.

William Lance, Captain

Age 20 Left Guard Weight 187

"Little Willie," our captain, is one of the most consistent players Weaver ever had.

In his three years on the varsity no team was ever able to gain consistently over his

position. With his powerful physique and even temperament he makes the ideal football

player.

Landis Loftin, Captain-Elect

Age 21 Left Tackle Weight 170

"Rat." who will captain the 1924 eleven, is one of the most brilliant linesmen in

Western North Carolina. He has a fine habit of breaking through the lines and downing

the runner before he gets started. We predict that Loftin will lead the best football

team in this section this fall.

Frank Chandler Age 20 Fullback Weight 190

Frank was the main cog about which the "Blue Giants" offense was centered. He was one of the greatest line buckers in the state, and a very fast man. His fighting spirit always aroused his men when things were going against them.

Horace Clemens Age 20 Halfback Weight 16S

Horace was the best ground gainer on the team. He was also one of the best men to furnish interference for the other backfield men.

Leon "Warlick Age IS Quarterback Weight 12S

"Span" was the lightest man ever to win the varsity letter in football at Weaver College. His remarkable knowledge of the game, and great fighting spirit marks him as one of the most valuable men on the squad.

Marvin Hodge Age 17 Halfback Weight 150

Marvin had never played any football before he came to Weaver College, but he learned the fundamentals of the game and made the squad. He was the hardest tackier on the team.

Fred Brummitt Age 22 Left End Weight 190

"Freddie" played the left wing position and always got his man. He was in the fight in every game of the season. He is every inch a dependable player and true sport.

&

I

TIM

MOU lNnr^vI NJEl

Okle Jones

Age 22 Halfback Weight 195

This "Baby Giant" simply tore opposing lines to "Smitherins." His defensive work was just as commendable. We could always count on Jones showing one hundred per cent efficiency.

George White Age 23 End Weight 133

"Shad" made up for his lack of weight by his ability to navigate over "terra firma" in fast time. He was an excellent receiver of the forward pass.

H JSP

Emory Lyda Age 17 Halfback Weight 170

Emory was not only a powerful runner with the ball, but he starred particularly in his defensive work. He played center in 1922, hut was shifted to the backfield because of a lack of material there.

Thomas Pack Age 20 Center Weight 175

Tom has all the requisites of an excellent linesman. He was shifted from his old position of tackle to the pivot position. He stands out as the best center in Western North Carolina.

Bonner Boger Age 21 Right Guard Weight 210

"Fatso" was the largest man on the team, and the opposing quarterback always found that to direct plays at his side of the line was sure suicide. He is a two year letter man.

Theodore Jervis Age 20 Tackle Weight 172

"Ted" was one of the best linesmen on the "Blue Giants" squad, though he was unable to make a position at the first of the year. However, his persistent efforts were re- warded towards the end of the season and he was used at tackle in most of the impor- tant games.

Ivor Vance Age 21 Right End Weight 1SS

"Slim," the big baseball pitcher, went out with the intention of making the team and was placed at one of the wing positions where he stayed throughout the season. He played a particularly brilliant game on Thanksgiving Day.

\&

J$

ajj^

Sidney Croy Age 19 Right Guard Weight 1S5

"Hambone," despite the fact that he was playing his first year of football, made a good record at his position. He was a good man at going down the field under punts and kick-offs.

ftummarp of tfte Reason

ON THE TENTH of September Coach Churchwell called his men out for the first regular practice of the 1923 season. The material looked promising. With eight of last year's letter men back, in the persons of Lance, this year's captain, Lyda. Loftin, Boger. Tatum, Jarvis, Pack, and White as a nucleus to build upon, the prospects were fair for a victorious season.

The first game of the year was played in Maryville, Tennessee, with the strong Mary- ville College team. With a team hardened by only a few days training, and partly composed of inexperienced men, we could not hope to win over the veteran A Grade College outfit. The defeat which the husky Tennesseans handed us revealed the fact that Coach Churchwell had a team free from any taint of yellow. But the heavy pounding which the "Blue Giants" received was one cause for the inability to make a better showing against Mars Hill in the next game.

The next game was played with Mars Hill on October thirteenth. Coach Churchwell had been working hard to put the team in shape. He had succeeded in building up a strong line, but Mars Hill had developed an aerial system of attack that could not be overcome. Several times Weaver brought the ball up to the ten yard line, but each time a fumble left the ball in Mars Hill's possession. The injuries and withdrawals from the game during the third quarter, of Dove and Chandler made it clear to Weaver supporters that the score would rest in Mars Hill's favor. Such was the result, and our boys returned home resolved to get their revenge on Thanksgiving Day.

The third game of the season was played in Tusculum, Tennessee, with the strong team of Tusculum College, on October 20, 1923. This was one of the best grid contests of the year. The volunteers' line could not hold before the powerful thrusts of Chandler and Clemens. After a steady march up the field, making knife-like off-tackle plays. Chandler went through Tusculum line for the first Weaver touchdown of the season. The teams see-sawed over the field during the remainder of the the first quarter, neither side gaining advantage. The quarter ended 6 — 0 for the "Blue Giants." Weaver resumed her terrific offensive in the second quarter and brought the ball to Tusculum's four yard line. The Tennesseans held here and Weaver was forced to drop kick. Lyda sent the ball between the bars, and the score stood: Weaver, 9; Tusculum 0. Neither team scored during the third quarter. Tusculum started a beautiful aerial offensive in the fourth quarter which gave her only touchdown. The extra point was made, and the score was Weaver 9, Tusculum 7. It is needless to say. but worth remembering, that the bonfire was burning when the victors returned.

After the game with Mars Hill it was evident that Coach Churchwell could not long continue to do the work of two men. The team was progressing satisfactorily under his coaching, but he asked to be relieved of his duties as coach in order that he might give more attention to his work as head of the science department. The authorities were fortunate in being able to secure the services of Mr. Bernard A. Arbogast, a four year letter man in football at Washington and Lee, to become coach of the Weaver squad. Coach Arbogast began his duties just three days prior to the game with Tus- culum College. He threw himself into his work with such vitality that no one doubted that we were headed for future victories.

The fourth game of the season was played with the Bingham Military Academy in Asheville, October twenty-seventh. The team was off form for this game and was badly beaten by the Cadets. This defeat marked the turning point of the season. Football took an upward turn for the "Blue Giants" and henceforth they were to go out and bring in the laurel.

It so happened there came tidings to Weaver of a team to the westward whose fame was great for skill in the science of handling the pig skin. The curiosity of the "Blue Giants" was aroused to such an extent that they proceeded to make a journey into those

1m

IfS

TH

MOU NT4^! isj EI

parts, determined to test the mettle of this much talked ot eleven. Accordingly, on October thirty-first, Coach Arbogast gathered his men of might and proceeded thence- forth. Asheville University put up a brave fight, but the terrific onslaught of the powerful Weaver back field was too much for the University eleven. Each quarter ended with a touchdown for Weaver, and for each touchdown, save one, the extra point was made. The University tried hard to plough the Weaver line, but in vain, and as the sun sank behind the Smokies, the score stood Weaver 27, Asheville University 0. Again Weaver faculty and student body welcomed their team's triumphant return.

On the following Saturday Asheville University team came to Weaver College deter- mined to even up the defeat which had been handed to her a week before. Their men were in fine trim, and they exhibited a fighting spirit that was really commendable. The home team was showing its superior coaching, and would not be baffled by v:s:tors. Time and again the ball was carried across the goal line of the University. The mighty fullback, Westmoreland, several times plunged through Weaver's line, but always he was brought down by some one of the "Blue Giants." The visitors were forced to take home the little end of a 38 — 0 score.

The seventh game of the season was played with North Greenville Baptist Academy on the home field. They were a plucky little eleven, and they put up a manly fight. But thp strong Weaver team ran rough shod over this fighting aggregation from South Carolina. The second string men were put into the fight and they continued to run up the score on the visiting eleven. The score stood: Weaver 52, Greenville 0, at the end of the game.

The final game of the year found the "Blue Giants" waiting on Dunham Field for their ancient rival, Mars Hill. The contest was the most thrilling ever seen in Weaver- ville. Weaver scored twice in the first half, while the Baptists did not even threaten to score during that period. In the third quarter both teams fought for the advantage, but neither was able to score.

Mars Hill made both her touchdowns in the early part of the fourth quarter. The first came when a forward pass and a long end run resulted in a touchdown. The goal was missed. The second touchdown was the result of a Weaver fumble, due to a wet ball. A long end run by Kuykendall put the ball across the line. This goal was also missed, but it was allowed because of a foul. With a powerful offensive drive that Mars Hill could not check. Weaver staged the most remarkable comeback ever witnessed in this section. With the score standing 13 — 12 in favor of the Baptists, and with only three minutes to play. Weaver started a steady march down the field after having received the kick-off. Weaver backs crashed through their line and made one first down after another. Mars Hill backed up against her own goal line and fought with desper- ation. She received the ball when a Weaver pass failed by a few inches to make first down. Anderson, the Baptist star end, tried to punt from his ten yard line. Captain- elect Loftin, Weaver tackle, blocked the punt and recovered the ball on the ten yard line. Weaver pushed through for the remaining distance and won the hardest fought battle of the year.

Thus ended one of the most glorious years in the history of Weaver College football. So to the team of '23, with hands of iron and knees of granite, we, the Senior Class, offer our deepest gratitude for what it has done to add to the glories of our Alma Mater.

CTIVE practice was begun on March the second

Athletics, Mr. Eugene Presson, had been busily engaged in his work prepar- ing for the baseball season. There was enough work that needed to be done since no contracts for games had been made when Mr. Presson took up his duties early in January. He arranged for games with colleges in Western North Carolina and made plans for a six day trip into the central part of the state. The first practice found a great quantity of promising material on the field. True, there were not so many of last year's team out, hut the first workout showed quite a number of new men of ability. By strenuous practice, Coach Ilogan Miller rounded out a very good club consisting of Captain Roy Jones, catcher; William Reagan, sub-catcher; Newlin, on the initial sack; "Ty" West, second base; Lyda, third base; Kuykendall, short stop; Williams, right field; Eaves, center field; Pack, left field; with Robertson and Boger filling in as utility men. The twirling staff consisted of Brummitt, Monday, and Newlin.

Early practice games revealed a strong team, which reputation was carried throughout the season. Our first big game was on March 27 with the Asheville League team of the South Atlantic Association. We made a very creditable showing before a large crowd, losing this game by the score of 13 — 5. Two practice games had been played previously, both of which were won. Then fol- lowed several home games.

On April 21, we started on our eastern trip, playing two games with Ruther- ford College, two with Mount Pleasant Collegiate Institute, one with Lenoir College, and one with an amateur team at China Grove. We consider the trip an unusually successful one, since we were able to win fifty per cent of the games played. Our season's average was materially increased by the games played on the home grounds, we being aide to turn in seven victories against four defeats. However, the number 13 proved to be unlucky for us, since two games were lost to other teams, each of which scored 13 runs.

?ivi «nn*nnn a, T ^^l l° Bpend ,n the uPbuII<"«>B of the college. He had recently given $100,000 tor the erection of a model girls' dormitory.

Mae McClure, having spent two years at Weaver College, became so attached to the dear old place that, after she received her degree at the University of North Carolina she returned to spend the rest of her life as a professor of math, within those dear old ivy clad walls.

Reba Perry entered Weaver College with the intention of specializing in a campus course and she continued this occupation successfully through her college career Having become thoroughly disillusioned after an exhaustive of the genus homo she reached the conclusion that a good man is hard to find and with her two companions the black cat and poll parrot, retired perfectly willing to be an old maid.

Tom Pack, who received his special training in Skinner's Hall, was fast putting Jack Dempsey off the record. As Tom was our class's best athlete, this came not as a great shock to me.

The class of 1924 has reasons to be proud of all of its members but especially of C. J. Reece, who was serving his country so nobly as instructor of military tactics at West Point.

We all thought in those college days Myron Tatum, with his gift of art would prove a success, and success he has won. He had recently married his old school sweetheart Lillian King, and was touring the country of Greece securing new ideas for his work.

While my eyes rushed hurriedly over the names, I was eagerly watching to see just where my old roommate, Annie Mae Ulmer, was spending her life. With a great shock I saw that she no longer spent her afternoons writing to Landrum, South Carolina and watching for Sam to pass; but was now in partnership with Janie Lance heading one of the largest millinery stores in Paris, both having received their selling hats during social hour at dear old Weaver.

John Vernon, a few years after our graduation, became very much discouraged with life because a fortune did not come as quickly as he wished. He then decided to try his luck in the gold mines of Oregon. His favorite song was then:

Oh! Dear Edna,

Oh! don't you cry for me,

I'll come back to Weaverville,

With gold dust on my knee.

Our jolly old classmate, Murray Walters, was making a fortune by running a hot dog stand on the site where the old car station once stood in Weaverville, North Carolina.

The cafe had been closed as the college boys thought it advisable to patronize the old alumnus. I was glad to know "Pink" was so successful in the mercantile world.

We had often heard Louise Williams plan great tours of the world, but never one time thought she would really take them; nevertheless, we were proud that she was planning to make a tour of the world to study political and economical conditions in the different countries of antiquity.

All at once a dark cloud hovered over the moon and caused me to pause and find myself thinking back over the paper. I wondered why some members of our class had not become president of our nation. Just then the cloud glided from over the moon, which again threw its soft pale rays upon the water and me. Glancing back over the paper, all at once I found that at the bottom of the left hand column, I had overlooked one of our members, Joe Young, and I was pleased to learn that he had risen from the chair of the president of our class to the Presidential Chair of our nation.

All at once the breeze snatched the paper from my hand. I reached to catch it, but, alas! my little bureau of information found a watery grave.

But listen, what is it I hear, a faint musical sound? Ah, 'tis bells. This brings back the quotation Miss Smith had us to memorize back in our high school days. Just how did it go?

■TTllE Committee on Maintenance of Order is one of tlie new organizations of the V_? college that has functioned well. It was formed for the purpose of inaugurating partial student government in the men's dormitory. Its chief duty was to take care of minor explosions of pent up energy and to conserve it for use in "pep" meetings and foot- ball games. It enforced a set of simple regulations governing dormitory life and thereby made Skinner Hall a better and more ideal place in which to live. "The Big Five," as the committee came to be known, wielded the big stick, sometimes with justice, more often with mercy, but always with a sagacity that was commendable. The residents of Skinner Hall cooperated beautifully with the members of the committee, and it can be said to their credit success could not have come without their assistance. Just what influence this experiment will have with regard to more complete student government will perhaps depend very much on the attitude of the student body.

Social life at lUeaber

IN THE REALM of the student activities, the social life is by no means the one to which the least attention has been given, for the faculty and student oragnizations have been swamped with calls for socials, and have responded beautifully to these calls with varied programs.

Sunday afternoon was set aside at the beginning of the year as a time when anv resident of Skinner's Hall could boldly walk up to Crutchfield Home, and call for his particular lady friend, and then, either by perambulating in the campus groves or by settling in some quiet nook, could enjoy the sweet felicity of each other's companionship and in plighting their troths which ultimately are destined never to end in connubial bliss.

The new students were welcomed to the college and to the friendship of the student body by a reception given by the Delphian and Mnemosynean Literary societies early in September. Each society had its banner hung beside that of the college. The colors were beautifully arranged about the walls and harmonized strikingly with the clusters of pine branches that fragrantly adorned the room. Many games were played and, after a general good-old-get-acquainted social hour, ice cream and cake were served in abundance. Then the gentlemen escorted the ladies home where they left with a hearty "good-night."

To give the incoming new students a complete welcome to the hearth and home of Weaver life, the Cliosophic and its sister society, the Euterpian, spread before them a feast of good things in the form of another reception given in the'ir honor. On this delightful occasion, the room was profusely decorated with golden rod, and the colors of the societies were tastefully draped about the hall. After a jolly social time, re- freshments were served, and every one went home with a merry heart feeling that It was indeed pleasant to have been there.

The Delphians and Mnemosyneans gave a very enjoyable program Thanksgiving night. After the lapse of a few days the Cliosophics and Euterpians, under the super- vision of Miss Smith, very successfully staged a comedy in three acts entitled "At the End of the Rainbow." Following in close succession was a play, brimful of fun, "Patty Makes Things Hum," given by the Delphians and Mnemosyneans under the supervision of Mrs. Erskine. Feeling their debt of gratitude for her untiring coaching, these two societies gave an open program and presented her with a beautiful bar-pin. The student body later attended an open program given by the Cliosophics and Euterpians and consisting of songs, readings, and special music. At the close of this, a short play was presented by the girls.

The Epworth League has had a successful social program for this scholastic year. In the very beginning a full calendar of social e'vents was adopted by the council, and has been invariably followed. The initial entertainment was a festive celebration welcoming the new students. General socials, out-door sports, and musicales, with formal debates between chosen teams, have provided opportunities for advancement, not only socially, but intellectually as well. The League was fortunate in securing a splendid Lyceum attraction, whose amusements were the best. Altogether, the work of this organization has been most satisfactory.

The faculty and senior class were delightfully entertained by the juniors at a ban- quet in Asheville on the evening of Washington's birthday. Covers were laid for sixty- two, including the hosts and their guests. The color scheme chosen, pink and white, was daintily carried out both in the menu and in the decorations. Carnations were lavishly used and were later presented to the seniors. Mr. Leon Warlick was the jovial toastmaster, and under his direction fun and humor flowed merrily throughout the evening. A delightful program of readings and speeches was concluded with a duet by Misses Lillian King and Edna Orr, accompanied by Mr. Paul Butt at the piano. They expressed the sentiments of both hosts and guests as they sang "The End of a Per- fect Day."

Thus ends the last scene of social life in Weaver for this year, so we bid the reader an affectionate farewell and ring down the curtain.

'/^JHB EPWORTH LEAGUE was organized in Weaver College more than twenty-flve \J years ago. The organization gained immediate favor and has grown rapidly; It has been a cooperative union with a distinct constitution and plan of work for the promotion of loyalty to our church and its missions among our young people, and for their education in the Bible and Christian literature. The Epworth League has long been a vital part of the student activities. It has efficiently fllle'd the need in the College for such an organization. Its aim — the cultivation of Christian fellowship among the young people, consecration, preparation, and service, has been realized.

W\)t ptrtf) of a publication

^JOON AFTER the opening of the fall term a number of students and faculty mem- JC5 bers began to talk of a student publication. All were of the opinion that it would l)e very much in ke'eping with the standing of the college to have a college paper edited and supported by the student body. Nothing of this kind had ever been attempted by a Weaver student body before, so naturally it was largely to be a matter of experiment if attempted at all.

Dean Powell announced in chapel that a mass meeting would be held to consider the advisability of attempting to get out a periodical. That night almost all the student body, together with members of the faculty, gathered in the auditorium of the admin- istration building to discuss the subject. The need for the publication was conceded, the desire for it was unanimous, the question then narrowed itself to the possibility of the project. "Could Weaver students finance the paper?" It was decided that the best way to And the answer to that question was to elect some one to make an investi- gation of the matter and report on the cost of it. Mr. Leon Warlick was seleced for this job.

In a few days Mr. Warlick was ready to make his report. He was none too optimistic, but believed that the paper could be gotten out if it were made a monthly publication, and the subscription price were made at one dollar. All agreed that the price was rather stiff, but it was clear that the value of such a work would be far greater than the price. Accordingly it was agreed that the paper should be published.

The next question to present itself was, "What shall we call this new publication?" Quite a few names were suggested, among them were "The Polygon," "The Loom," "Mountaineer." "Weaverite," and "The Weaver Pep." There was heated discussion as to the name, but finally all were eliminated with the exception of "The Polygon" and "The Weaver Pep." The latter name was chosen by a majority vote.

The following staff was elected: Thomas Pack, Editor-in-Chief; Leon Warlick, Busi- ness Manager: Edna Orr, Associate Editor; Hoyle Broome, Associate Editor; Ruth Weir, Society Editor; Myron Tatum, Sports Editor; Prof. Yost. Alumni Editor; Bertha Goldstone, City Editor; Prof. Powell, Faculty Adviser. The literary societies elected the following reporters: Ruth Weir, Euterpian; Myrtle Lee, Mnemosynean; John Vernon, Delphian; Marvin Hodge, Cliosophic.

The Weaver Pep is an assured success. Faculty adviser Powell and the staff have made it a success in so far as news of college activities are concerned. Business Man- ager Warlick has been successful with the financial end of the "Pep." His work has been done, and always with the odds against him. but we feel that much credit is due him for making it the financial success, without which no publication can long sur- vive. The financial difficulties of the the Business Manager can be better understood if we remember that advertising is hard to secure because merchants associations do not permit their members to advertise in periodicals with small circulations.

How has the "Pep" been received by the student body? Joyfully, when it comes from the press. However, it has not received the financial support due it. This is what might be expected at the average college.

There is growing a strong sentiment for a compulsory publication fee. With this compulsory fee there will come a greater "Pep" a greater "Mountaineer," and a greater Weaver.

And then we tell each other, this will never do here.

L is for letters and love we cherish so dear,

But they always come with a kind of fear.

M is for mountain, to mountaineers most dear.

Please observe the name of our annual this year.

N is for nights when we have nothing to do

Except sit around and look sweet like you.

0 is for outs you are sure to take

If you go to breakfast more than five minutes late.

P is for powder and also for paint;

They help Weaver girls to be what they ain't.

Q is for questionnaires at the wrong time arrived

They keep us from socials — how we hate to be deprived.

R is for rowdiness SKINNERS do make,

Then too, it's for racket the Dean has to take.

S is for soup that we put on the table.

Just find something in it if you are able.

T is for teahounds we find loafing in town,

When you give a social they are sure to come around.

U is for the use our text-books do,

Also for US, and we care for that too.

V is for victory that makes us jolly and gay. Also for vacation that is coming in May. W's for Weaver, we love her so dear;

We would like for you to come here next year.

X is for exercise — X-Y and Z

When you find the unknown you get excellent you see.

Y is for yells that come in by spells

When we win the game we ring all the bells.

Z is for Weaver Zip, in oceans they buy it.

If you don't believe it, just come and try it.

"ETC." is for the things that we know we don't know;

1 guess they will fill ten volumes or so.

What kind of clothes did Adam and Eve wear in the garden of Eden? Bare-skin.

What shape is a kiss? Elliptical, (a lip tickle).

To what age do girls wish to attain? Marri-age.

What flowers are between a girl's nose and her chin? Tulips, (two lips)

What is the longest word in the English language? Smiles. Because there is a mile between the first and last letters.

Why is a newly-married couple like a pair of sugar-tongs? Because they are two spoons joined.

Why is a modern girl a bad grammarian? Because very few are able to decline matrimony.

At what time was Adam married? Upon his wedding Eve.

When is love deformed? When it is all on one side.

When is a lover like a talior? When he presses his suit.

A good definition of a muff. It is something or somebody that holds a girl's hand without squeezing it.

Which dress lasts a woman the longest? Her house dress for she seldom wears it out.

Why is an old bachelor always in the right? Because he is never miss-taken.

Why do girls kiss each other and men not? Because girls have nothing better to kiss and men do.

What tongue did Balaam's mule speak. Most likely in he-bray-ic. (Hebraic)

Which is the heavier the full moon or the new moon? The new moon, because the full moon is a great deal lighter.

The best thing to make in a hurry — haste.

When are eyes not eyes? When the wind makes them water.

There is no such thing as a whole day, for every day begins by breaking.

If Evelyn McCollum should go fishing, would she take "Bates"? If we were raking hay would "William Stack" or "Tom Pack"? If Byrd should propose would "Geneva Neil"?

Why Prof. Trowbridge does not get another three thousand volume library for his education class to read?

If music would evaporate, would Winstead go up in vapor?

If Bland loves precious Jewels?

If Adeline could write, could John Reid?

Would Blake Howell if she should smash her finger?

If we were all drinkers would Wells go dry?

If Miss Pescud eats in Spanish or Portuguese?

What is the weight of the Georgia Club.

If Mabel Maney, Ruth Manchester and Maude Burrus are triplets.

How the boys enjoy the visits of Dean Powell. (Sugestion: Listen after he leaves.)

If Geneva would come near would Byrd fly?

If the young ladies are responsible for the breaking up of the mustache club?

Why the' girls always want to borrow a Broome from Skinner's Hall?

If a newspaper contains news, what does a bulletin contain?

Why Leon Warlick and Bump Bland take a bath with their clothes on?

We wonder if Dacy knows where to find the egg now!

Moored Style Record

Appeals to Students

\ I 7"HILE it's an old record — established now for ' » nearly thirty years — each new season we play it with new variations which are in tune with a student's ideas about clothes. Moore's has long since learned the secret and well-defined philosophy which college fellows have about their chothes. We know that these young and going chaps fairly or- iginate and cause to be made, styles of their own. And such styles immediately find a place in our high quality stocks — here to help in maintaining Moore's Style Record.

WEAVERVILLE

(TWENTY MINUTES FROM PACK SQUARE)

The last decade has witnessed an interesting development in American home life — a resurgent movement from the city to the surburban district and small town. The automobile has been perhaps the chief influence in producing this exodus from the town, for by means of it the business man of even moderate income has been enabled to exchange the close quarters of a city house or apartment for a surburban or a country home with cool veranda, grassy lawn for the children to play upon, and perhaps a bit of garden in which he can exploit his own ideas as to the raising of beans and cabbage.

A number of such homes are to be found in Weaverville. Their charm is evident at the first glance and a second reveals the fact that they are equipped with every modern convenience — water, sewerage, electric lights and telephones — may we have the pleasure of showing them to you?
