'' Opposite Courthouse feoooooesooog-QOcaoopc; a little Dutch girl on abig.Brevard hill.” Of course, she doesn’t wear wooden shoes or the typical white cap, but she’s a Hollander through and through- Poulina Johanna Auer was born December 14, 1;^17, in the beach town of Vlissenge, Holland. Here, she tells me, one may see the dikes, wind, mills, and tulips; (That was enough to convience me that it was Holland.) Poulina, or Polly, didn’t live there very long before the family moved to Rotterdam, where Polly started to school. The schools in Holland are private, and one pays for his children to go to school in direct proportion to his income and inversely to the number of children. Here Polly’s father was engineer on a boat; and she visited Germany, England, Bel gium, France, and Norway. Of all the sights that she has seen, the view of the Midnight Sun in Norway is most vivid in her mind. After Poulina’s father had been connected with the EnkaCompany for two years in Arnhem, he was transferred to America, to Enka, North Carolina. It took her about three months to understand English, • but now she likes America so well that she hopes to become a nurse here. One may easily say, that Poulina has adapted herself remarkably well to her new surroudings and this indicates her ability to do other things just as well. Visit BELK’S For Your Christmas Shopping One of our most active student members in the religious work here on the campus, James W. Crouse, was born in Salisbury on January 23, 1915; but now his home is in Lexington. When Jim entered high school he was very eager to earn some money of his own, so he was given a job as custodian of the Methodist Church there. He did this so well that he was given a similar job in the school. In high school James was band lead er for two years, played the drum, played spring football, and was student council repre sentative. After graduation he did not come to college imme diately, but kept his two jobs as custodian. The happiest moment of his life came when James was elect ed president of the Young Peo pie’s Organization in the Metho dist Chvrch. While holding this nfflee James was awarded the L. E. Brown Medal for the most outstanding yeai’s work in the Western North Carolina Confer ence. September 1935 found James enrolling in Brevard College to prepare himself for the teaching of the Gospel. Now he is head of the religious program in Taylor Hall and is holding an office in the local Methodist Church. He held this same office last year. We see in James one of the finest Christian spirits found anywhere, and we all know that we shall be proud to say that once we knew him. Tell - Tales By the Tale-Tellers Dear Santa Claus, I’ve been thinking i that there are a lot of , people in my “Tell- Tales” column that are so unself ish that they won’t ask forthings for themselves, so ^ I decided to take matters in my own hands and write you a letter for them. First, dear Santa, I want you. to bring Turner Feezor a perfect girl to date, and bring Margaret Mil ler a date without a chaperon. Margaret makes me think of Lex ington, and I want you to be sure to see that everybody (who wants to) will be at thatbig party they’re throwing there Christmas. Santa, I want you to bring Bet back to Horace and bring to Marge the Only One from Morven. Satty and; Midge ask for a, little white church all their own, so don’t forget them. I \yant you to give Odell lots and lots of dates with Edith during the holidays, and please give some little girl the opportu nity to kiss that pretty little mouth of Pierce Cole’s. Don’t forget the little red wagon for j3onrad and a , bigger and better audience for Tiis' 'stump speeches. Pet’s rocking chair is an all- important thing, Santa, so be sure she gets it. You can bring Bill Hackney More popular girls to date so he’ll always. be able to save twenty cents. Of course we all want bigger and better letters for every day of the new year, Santa, and less Pay what you owe, and you’ll and less soup. know what is your own. The Dutch Oven Drinks, sandwiches, candies Good 5-cent hamburgers Wishing You A Merry Christmas and A Very Happy New Year Long’s Drug Store Be sure to let Gene see Ann during Christmas, and don’t for get Bernice’s Peruna. That’s all I can think of right now, dear Santa, i except don’t forget to give Irene Parsons a chance in the movies. Thank you, Santa Claus. Sincerely yours. The Tale-Teller P. S.
