P. T. A. ENTERTAINS
TEACHERS i j
- ?
On last Friday afternoon, the par
ents of the Brevard Teachers Associ
ation entertained the teachers of the
local schools with their annual picnic
at Rockbrook Camp.
Swimming and friendly "chatting""
were enjoyed until a bell called the
friendly group of parents and teach
ers to the Camp lodge where a most
delicious picnic lunch was served.
There was fried chicken galore, chic
ken salad, pickles, sandwiches, cakes
and pies and steaming hot coffee.
The coffee was furnished by Mrs.
Henry Carrier, through whose cour
tesy the camp was afforded for the
occasion.
Each year the teachers look for
ward eagerly to the picnic with great
anticipation After . the picnic this
year they all agreed that this was
one of the best ever given.
Rockbrook Camp is an ideal spot
for such an outing and the teachers
enjoyed the fresh air and the freedom
from the tasks of a busy day.
One of the teachers said, "We un
derstand the children better by know
inj? their parents," and thus the pic
nic played an important part in
creating friendship between the par
er and teachers.

LIGHT
is SAFETY in your HOME
Figures from large insurance companies prove that
personal injuries in the home are often the result of in
adequate lighting. L'nlighted hallways, dark stair
ways, dim rooms, all provide settings where accidents
may easily occur. You can remove these sources of
possible danger by providing easily accessible, conven
ient lighting in all dark spaces in your home.
Lights properly placed will dispel
the uncertain shadows that lead to
accidents. And outside of your
home, lights which may be con
trolled from inside the house will
serve to guard against burglary
and midnight marauders. You are
adding safety to your home when
you ADD-A-LIGHT.

sentation was made with the follow
lowing beautiful words:
"Worthy Grand Matron: I have in
my hand a gift for you from this
chapter. We were not able to give a
gift that would be deserving tribute
to your zeal and worth, nor one that
would fully express our love or ap- >
preciatiop of you. However, Emerson
said, 'The only gift is a portion of
thyself.' None of us have painted j
this scene or created this fall, but it
is a part- of us because the beauty of
the scene has grown into our souls '
helping to make us what we are.
Please accept this picture as a token
of our fraternal love ? a little me- j

ing Day brought out a large crowd
from Transylvania and Henderson
r counties, with quite a number from
surrounding counties.
j At noon, a picnic dinner was serv
[ed. The Jpng tables were loaded, and
the viands were prepared as only
Transylvania and Henderson county

,was abundant for the hundreds pres
ent, and the traditions of the Dav
[idson River Day Dinner were amply
maintained.
J This annual_ Home-Coming Day of
the old church is always well attend

NIGHT SCHOOL FOR
[ NEGROES !N COUNTY
Night school for Transylvania
county colored people began in the
^Rosenwald school Tuesday night,
| Prof. J. M. Harris, principal of the
school, announced this week.
The classes for adult3 will be con
ducted every Tuesday and Thursday
night in the Rosenwald School at
seven o'clock. All colored people in
terested in acquiring an education by
working a few extra hours every
week are urged to attend the school
'and avail themselves of this unusual
opportunity.
Night schools are being conducted
over the state for both white and col
ored people. In late years the num
ber has increased appreciably. The
advantages offered in night schools
though not as valuable as day schools,
are reaping wonderful results, by
| teaching eager persons to read, write
and the fundamentals of Arithmetic
;and other subjects, such as history
and geography, which are of interest
to everyone.
When the night schools first began
l they were primarily in the larger
, cities of the state, however, since they
; have gained a foothold, they are
I spreading over the smaller towns and
l communities. Night schools are play
! ing an important part in the educa
tion of America today, for there are
thousands of people who have to work
all day and find it impossible to at
tend ar.y form of school. The night
i school here will be the solution for
I the colored people and it is expected
? that a large number of men and
' women will be regular members of
the Rosenwald Night School.

",amples of skill in the magician's pro
? fession.

B. I. AND PICKENS IN
NO-SCORE CONTEST
The Brevard Institute football
team led by CSapt. Frillo Mitchell
ventured to Pickens, S. C., Friday to
tackle the heavy Blue Flame eleven,
and whereby met their match.
The game ended with no scoring
having been made by either team:
Brevard 0; Pickens 0.
Practically all of the game was
played in center field, neither team
getting within striking distance of
the goal. The quarterbacks called
out their punters and there ensued a
spirited punting contest. It was in
deed a fierce contest, with the teams
evenly matched and fighting for every
tinch of ground. Capt. Prillo Mitchell
j punted for B. I. and it is said that
i he made some superb kicks during j
.the course of the game. *
| The line-up was not changed dur
ing the game, reported Coach Tran
tham, since the boys were playing
so well, and holding their own evenly,
he saw no need for substitute.
