Alma Mater
ALMA MATER, thou art not what we would have
thee be. Wilt thou, as a seed, spring forth with
new life to regain and surpass thy former beauty
and stength, fill a vast sphere with the honey-scented
influence of learning and love, an irresistible combination?
Guard closely the policies of thy endeavors; recognize
things common to every human heart; and a New Era
dawns for thee.

Work
BY work we live, are polished and improved. B\
work pleasures are made more sweet, re.'.t more
soothing, and sleep profound and peaceful. By
work dreams come true, gigantic industries are huilt from
crude ore, heroic men are made of weaklings. By work
energies are expended either rightly or wrongly; the drip-
ping water that leaves its useless impression in the stubborn
stone might have turned the spindles that weave the silken
thread. — C. R. C.

Law and Order at Weaver College
KNOWING that Order is the oil which lubricates
human association, thus preventing the loss of
energies by friction ; knowing that where people
are to abide successfully together definite requirements
must be asserted ; knowing that the principles of democ-
racy are practical and sound — Weaver is developing a
system of student government with the object of building
stalwart American citizens, dominant personalities, and
noble characters.

Everybody likes Barnett. Perhaps this
is the reason he was able to secure one
of the fair sex before coming to us. When
lie came into our midst, he joined the

noble life have kept him true to his obliga-

little trick of Fate throws you off the main
line. May your cleverness, cheerfulness,
and alertness win for you your ideals in
everything-. This is our wish.

With a year's experience as a school
"Prof.," Bill comes to us from the wilds of
South Carolina. This sturdy character is
noted for his original thinking, keen per-

has an adventurous spirit along this line,

day occupy a high place in his chosen

Social Events
THE opening social event of the year 1925-1926 was a "Get-Acquainted Party,"
given by the Epworth League, Saturday evening, September 4, 1925. This
was a jolly, informal entertainment which put the blues and homesickness to
flight, and made us feel at home.
The four Literary Societies soon gave their annual receptions in honor of the new
students. The Cliosophic-Euterpean reception was given in the lobby of Skinner Hall
Saturday evening, September 12, 1925. The decoration of the hall added much to
the party, maroon and white being used, with golden rod and autumn leaves arranged
artistically about the room. On Saturday evening, September 17, 1925, the Delphian-
Mnemosynean Literary Societies gave their annual reception. The entrance was dec-
orated to represent a garden. The Mnemosynean colors, green and white, were car-
ried out here by the use of trees, flowers, and Japanese lanterns. The guests all spent
a gay evening in the lobby, where the Delphian colors, purple and white, were used as
decorations.
The long winter months were enlivened by many social events. An ice cream
supper, a carnival, a number of parties given in honor of visiting athletic teams, a
Japanese tea, a Valentine party given by members of the Stanley-Rowan County Club,
a box supper for the "Pep," and a St. Patrick's Day social, were among the parties
that the jolly Weaver students enjoyed.
The crowning event of the year was the Junior-Senior banquet, given at the Bat-
tery Park Hotel, February 22, 1926. This event will always be remembered with a
thrill of pleasure.
In spite of the eager excitement and the joy of these special occasions, there are
many young men and women who believe that the greatest institution of Weaver
College is the "Sunday School Hour," enjoyed by any who have managed to walk in
the exceedingly narrow path of duty during the week.
Thus is our work and study so leavened by fun and frolic that there are few dull
days or tedious hours at Old Weaver.

PRAYER is the great connecting link of communica-
tion and power between the souls of men and God.
Through the channel of prayer the infinite re-
sources of heavenly love flow into empty human souls,
converting them into a spring of sparkling, crystal water,
a living source of life.
Each week the students of Weaver College come
together in a silent, reverent, earnest body to renew their
religious strength, develop their souls, and feast on the
bounteous love of God.

Religious Activities
"ALL FOR CHRIST"
In order to develop Christian characters, the College must have organizations
through which to work. The Epworth League, a nation-wide organization, is one of
her most efficient tools. The work of the League is carried on largely by the student
body, and is truly wide-awake, the Sunday evening services being especially attractive
with their varied programs. The College League is well represented at the monthly
District Union Meetings and at the Annual Epworth League Conferences. The well
attended prayer meeting services and the morning-watch, a worship service conducted
before breakfast, are both under the supervision of the League.
The College has her own Sunday School, with a staff of officers elected from the
student body. This offers a wonderful opportunity for service, as new officers are
installed every quarter.
The Young Men's Christian Association, working at Skinner Hall, proved itself a
helpful and efficient organization. There are two other organizations offering oppor-
tunities for service. These are the Christian Workers' Team and Life Service Band,
both for students interested in Christian work. A small yet important service which
makes a wonderful impression on Weaver students is "Family Prayer," conducted
immediately after the evening meal. Silence reigns throughout the dining hall during
the few minutes' worship.
The annual revival services, conducted just before Christmas, are a wonderful
help to students, as during the time neglected pledges are revived or lives are newly
offered to the Master.
The student body of Weaver is composed largely of young men and young women
who are striving earnestly and eagerly towards a high and worthy ideal, who realize
the difficulties and complexities of modern life, but are convinced that Christian
principles will solve the vexing problems and difficulties by which they are today
confronted. Mary Ellen Powell.

Weaver Policy of Athletics
nnHROUGHOUT the year Weaver College has been
consistently proud of its athletic policy. It is a pol-
icy of fairness, of true sportsmanship, of athletic rectitude.
Weaver holds that athletics promote a moral training not
less valuable than the physical development offered. Al-
ways athletics should build a reverence for the right, a love
for what is fair. Weaver has sought to teach this, and
the college has ever hoped to see such a love and reverence
demonstrated by the men on the field. Weaver believes
that "It isn't so much whether you won or lost that
counts, but how you played the game."

Emory Lyda, Quarter Back
With dauntless courage and tenacity, a keen, intel-
lectual knowledge of the technique of the football
game acquired through four years of gridiron drill
this powerful son of Weaver led his team bravely
through many hard-fought battles. Lyda ia noted for
line plunging all over our playing radius.
Alvan Dean. Half Back
This Georgian, with his pluck and grit and several
years of experience, was a welcomed addition to our
grid machine of '26. He stayed put. never gave in nor
tired. His love of the sport drove him on. He was
dependable and sure. Beautiful punting was his spe-
cialty.
Davis Tuttle, Half Back
This knight of the gridiron hails from Lenoir, a foot-
ball town. He was promoted from tackle to half back
and filled his position like a veteran. Daring, silent,
and sturdy characerizes this reliable player. "Tut,"
the man for an end run.
Guy Hayes, Half Back
A late start at the beginning of the training period
did not prevent this fast little "Rat" from making
his position and holding his own during many scram-
bles, against odds, for the "pig-skin." "Rat" was a
fleet-footed, cool-headed player under any and all
conditions.

Sidney Croy, Center
The third year this son of the Southland comes back
to fight for Weaver in the center position, pouring
out his whole soul in iron steadfastness and bull-
doggedness for his Alma Mater. Croy is gummy,
sticky, and dependable ; slow, but ever sure. Accurate
passing from center was his goal.
Ray Carpenter, Left Guard
This brave son of the Old North State plays his third
and last year for Old Weaver. He is a fellow with
considerable physical strength and endurance, full of
"pep," the spice of football. He is a hard, clean
fighter, and always on the alert. On Thanksgiving
Day, '25. he starred in his position as left guard, and
at all times was a man equal to the task.
Vernie Bartlett, Right Tackle
Coming from Reems Creek, this rugged mountaineer
excels in power of body and in qualities of mind.
"Fats" was a cultured gentleman, and a mainstay
with us. He has weight, drive, and speed — an excel-
lent combination for a tackle. When his cleats slugged
the ground, something had to move. His wild
cattishness played its part.
Carlyle Jordan, Right End
This fellow has the football fever and a good knowl-
edge of the game. He made Weaver an end worthy
of the name. He never failed, unless he was playing
Cullowhee. It thrills the grid fan's heart to see the
pigskin sail into his sure clutches.
Glenn Kennerly, Left Tackle
"Ken," you are quite the stuff and played football
well, although you are "pretty." From a greenhorn
in the football world "Ken" became quite a profes-
sional before the season of '25 was over. We are
looking for great things from you next year.
McAvoy Brittain
"Mac" was a snatch team to us. When some one
slowed up, "Mac" came in with plenty of ginger ; this
was spice to us, too. Although "Hop" was not always
"sweet to Daddy," he took it like a man. Did it do
you good, "Bo?" Next year will tell.
Mark Prigdex, Right Guard
When things looked serious ; when the wind blew
wrong ; when Weaver stood still ; then it was that
"Munk's" cherry "Dad-burn it I" helped us on. With
you. "Munk," the Mars Hill Thanksgiving game would
have been ours. This was a trick of Fate. What
about the Thanksgiving game of '26?
Sherrod Tuttle
To Sherrod Tuttle, whose picture we do not have. But
this promising son of Weaver took his bad luck like a
teal man. He bore his pain, suffered the consequences,
and still wears his smile. It has been we, the rest of
the team, who have missed you most. "Tut." This
getting your knee fractured was another trick of Fate.
Who knows but what it was for the best ? Best
wishes, "Bud I"

Summary of Football Season
The football season opened September 25, school having begun September 4. The
delay in getting to practice was due to a water shortage, which was a great hindrance
to the development of a football machine for Old Weaver.
September 24, Coach Houston Arbogast sent out a call for candidates. Among
those reporting were Lyda, captain; Croy, center; Carpenter, guard; and Hampton,
end ; the only letter men available. Among the new men reporting were Davis Tuttle,
Sherrod Tuttle, Dean, Pridgen, Hart, Brittain, Weaver, Woolley, Bartlett, A. Felipe,
Jordan, Greene, R. Hunnicutt. Teague, and T. Huneycutt. A second call was
made, and the following responded : Love, Wilson, Cox, Moss, Summey, Burgin,
and Wolfe.
The first game of the season was played October 3, on Dunham Field, with the
powerful Farm School eleven. The "Blue Giants" fought hard against odds during
the first half, but the weight and training of the Farm School Aggies won for them a
score of 25-7.
The next game was also played on the home field, Mars Hill meeting Weaver on
the following Saturday. Football fans had estimated an overwhelming victory for the
Baptists, since the Methodists were defeated by Farm School. This game was a revela-
tion of the "Old Weaver spirit," which invariably means hard and clean football. The
battle raged fiercely on both sides, neither scoring in the first half; however, the
Weaver men outplayed the Baptists, the ball remaining most of the time in their
territory. The breaks went against the Methodists, and the score announced by the
referee was a tie — 6-6.
Weaver men journeyed to Maryville, Tennessee, October 17 to face the great
Maryville aggregation. Here the Methodists met with a hard proposition, Maryville
men being heavy and entirely out of the Weaver class. The first half of the game
was played by the Weaver varsity, who held the Presbyterians to a score of 25-0,
which demonstrated to the Tennesseians that Weaver had been upon the field fighting.
The second half was played by the Weaver "scrubs," who longed for a taste of real
football ; and when the half had ended, the score then stood 84-0.
One week later, Wingate College met Weaver on Dunham Field. Last year
Weaver went to Wingate and defeated her by a small margin of one point. Here
was an old enemy out for revenge, and Weaver put forth every effort to win a second
victory, while Wingate used every available ounce of strength to "even up." The
Weaver line stood firm and Wingate suffered a great many more penalties than did
Weaver; yet they succeeded in pushing over two touchdowns, which was enough to
win for the visitors the game. Score: 13-6.
October 13, Weaver again journeyed to Tennessee, this time to meet Tusculum,
another large college. The Blue Giants were well aware of the situation and were
determined to give the Tusculum boys a "hot battle." The entire Weaver team played
hard and clean, laboring under difficult conditions; they played in a field of mud;
bucking and holding a heavy line under such conditions was too much for the Weaver
boys, and the score announced was 25-0.
Rutherford College came to Weaver November 11. Weaver soon found the
Rutherford boys an easy bunch, game and well trained, but lacking in football experi-
ence. The backfield was on the alert and Dean punted well. End runs and forward
passes worked well, and Weaver had but little trouble in walking away with an 18-0
victory.
Page One Hundred Five
Cullowhee was the next team to fall before the sturdy Weaverites, November 18,
and was played at Cullowhee. Again, Weaver had to meet a hard-fighting little team,
yet one inexperienced in football, whose physical strength was somewhat weaker than
Weaver's; hence, the Methodists had no great task in running up a score of 28-6.
The last game of the season came on Thanksgiving Day; for the first time this, the
greatest game of the year, was played on the Mars Hill field. Weaver's successes,
measured by scores, had been almost uniformly lower than Mars Hill scores where
both teams had met the same opponents. The Weaver spirit revealed itself from the
first kick-off, when a Mars Hill man received the ball while Kennerly and Hampton
cut him down before he could gain an inch. This game was an exhibition of real
football by both teams. Captain Lyda, playing his last game of football for Old
Weaver, starred as perhaps he had never done before, carrying the ball through the
heavy defense of the Baptists and managing his team so as successfully to compete
against the difficulties brought about by a continual downpour of rain. Another star
for Weaver that day was Carpenter, who plunged through the Baptist line and got his
man, throwing the Hill for a loss in almost every play. Dean, as always, never failed
to do good punting. During the second half, Hays, the dauntless Black and Gold
halfback, was injured and was unable to enter the game again. The advantages of
the remaining part of the game were slightly with the heavier Mars Hill team; and
soon they succeeded in making an end run for a touchdown, but failed to kick a goal.
The Methodists were determined to hold them from a further score, and the game
closed with a defeat of 6-0. For the first time in the history of the contests between
the two colleges Weaver was defeated on Thanksgiving Day.
The close of the season came on Thursday evening, December 10, when the annual
banquet was held at West's Cafe in a most generous style. Coach Houston Arbogast
was unable to be present; but he was not forgotten, because Weaver men are always
ready to give him great credit as a coach of remarkable ability. The entire squad ex-
pressed its hope that he would be back to coach the grid machine of '26. At the close
of the banquet, Mr. Sidney Croy was elected captain of the team of 1926.

Dramatic Club
THERE is latent talent in this group of vigorous
playmakers which needs only to be developed, pol-
ished, and refined in order to reproduce dramatic
pieces worthy of note. By Miss Smith's and Mrs. Carden's
skillful coaching, this band has already given plays which
attracted wide attention; however, the possibilities have
not yet been realized. This is a rich field of college en-
deavor ; we hope for its future.

WEAVERVILLE
THE last decade has witnessed an interesting development in American
Home Life — a resurgent movement from the city to the suburban dis-
trict and small towns. The automobile has been, perhaps, the chief
influence in producing' this exodus from town, for by means of it the
business man of even moderate income has been able to exchange the close
uarter of a city house or apartment for a suburban or country home, with a
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
cabbgea.
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 telephone.
May we have the plaesure of showing them to you?

Two men were hunting in the wilds
of Western North Carolina. They
were chasing a wildcat, when they
emerged from the woods ju.st in time
to see the animal leap into the win-
dow of a mountain cabin from which
they heard the voice of a woman
singing-. Hubby was lounging idly
on the porch.
"Great Scott! man. is your wife in
the house?" a.sked one of the hunt-
ers.
"Yeah," said the man lazily.
"Well, for goodness sake get busy!
A wildcat has just jumped into the
window."
"Well, let him get out the best
way he can. I ain't got no use for
the pesky critters, nowhow," said
the man. unmoved.
The new and unusual— that sparkling reality which is
known as the life of each school year— is caught and
held forever within the pages of Bureau built annuals.
The ability to assist in making permanent such delight-
ful bits of class spontaneity rests in an organization of
creative artists guided by some 17 years of College Annual
work, which experience is the knowledge of balance and
taste and the fitness of doing things well. In the finest
year books of American Colleges the sincerity and genu-
ineness of Bureau Engraving quality instantly impresses.,
one. They are class records that will live forever..
