I would, however, like to invite you on a little tour, one that goes beyond Murphy. Let us follow Highway 64 west and head straight toward the Ten nessee line. About nine miles from Murphy, we come to an intersection. Here we take the right, and for another seven or so miles, we will follow Highway 294, leading directly toward the mountains. This is a scenic drive, as you will notice, along curving roads, bordered by rolling meadows and impressive forests. An Eagle among the Mountains In a sudden straight stretch that gives one the impression of getting a deep breath before striking into the real mountains, a blue and white sign dominates the roadside, introduc ing the large brick school tucked into the valley at the foot of the heights, surrounded on every side by azure ranges. "Hiwassee Dam School," the sign announces, and the perfect symbolism of the mountain eagle on the sign strikes one's fancy: An eagle among the mountains ? that's what we are! Hiwassee Dam is a school hous ing approximately 600 grammar and high school students, bustling with activity and enthusiasm, brisk with learning and the desire to be taught, presided over by a decisive principal with snapping dark eyes that respond as readily to humor as to the more serious aspects of administration. He is Harest E. King, president of the local chapter of the NCEA, and delegate to the National Convention which gave the capabilities of Lois Edinger larger scope for greater good to education. This is a man who terms himself a "working" principal; and, indeed, he is ready to turn his hand to anything from signing di plomas to showing the boys how to use the electric mopper. It was he who showed me over the "plant." At that time, the new cafe teria was still under construction However, his vivid, terse description made me see what it proved to be ? an ultra modern cafeteria, beautiful from the stainless steel of kitchen to the blue and white terrazzo floors, to the modernistic use of seven different colors to produce an atmosphere of harmony. Enthusiasm and Pride Mr. King is always happy to put the entire school on display, proud of his faculty, pleased but not satis fied with the progress being made. No one listening to him can fail to be affected by his enthusiasm. That was the way it affected me, certainly, on the hot August day that I first saw Hiwassee Dam School, up the road beyond Murphy. Perhaps that was one of the reasons why I wel comed my first North Carolina teach ing contract. I can show how I feel about this school by describing one incident ? the business of moving the library. When I found two periods on my schedule marked "Library," I had no idea what was involved beyond going into a neat, well-organized li brary, there to stamp books, file cards, and generally care for library work, for which I was trained. At the first library period, I reported to Mr. King and was introduced to the ac tivity involved: move a complete li brary, lock, stock, and barrel! The originally designated library had had to be used for the cafeteria, while the high school and grammar school libraries were housed in one room in the elementary wing. With the new cafeteria in operation at the opening of school, the high school could reclaim its library. My first step, therefore, was to move all the high school books from the elemen tary wing into the high school area. Boys to the Rescue This assignment was quite a job any way one looks at it, and espe cially so when the chief mover is a new teacher to the system. The task became more manageable after a practical consultation with Mr. King. Suggestion one: The shop would furnish boys to work under my super vision in removing the books from the shelves, keeping them as nearly as possible in chronological order. They would then move the books by float from one wing to the other ? time-consuming but possible. Then, these same boys moved the book shelves, painted, cleaned, nailed, pol ished, mopped, and waxed. Have you heard it said that modern teen-age boys do not know how to work, fol low directions, be efficient, coopera tive, or courteous? If you have, 1 would like to introduce you to the HDHS boys and suggest that you work side by side with them for some weeks. Such an experience will give you a new view of the modern generation. When everything was in readiness to receive the books, I learned that the only available study-hall was made up entirely of freshmen girls, not the juniors or seniors that one would think essential for sorting and shelving a library. Those little fresh men recruits, however ? bless their hearts ? did stalwart service; they still form the strong central core for the library assistants who help keep the library operating efficiently. They still assist in preparing a shelf list and in helping keep the card catalog in perfect order. All classes are represented among the library iidH who enable the li brary to remain open for the entire ? school day, a functioning group that works daily in almost perfect routine, despite the fact that they have direct supervision for only two periods per day. Do you need further proof thai high school girls can be trustworthy, hardworking, and efficient? Take a look at our Library Club ? a newly formed organization ? and you will see normal teenagers serving well because they can and because they know we trust them to do so. ?J Crhnnl CnlUt LtKkocc cm xouoi spini I believe our bulletin board will also serve to pinpoint the Hiwassee Dam School Spirit. In trying to work out an idea for the library bulletin board for opening day, I searched for something symbolic of the school and the part it plays in the lives of the students. That was my reason for choosing the title, "Peaks of Ac tivity," an idea that seemed pecul iarly appropriate to the school's environs. In this panorama Mount Mental would represent the native, intrinsic ability that endows each person in varying amounts; Recrea tion would be the wise use of leisure time in furthering social adjustment; Athletics, the use of the body well and wisely, would represent that healthful and school-spirit-inspiring part of any well-balanced school program; Mount Moral was that peak which any school should help the student to climb; and, of course, there was the peak representing Knowledge, usually assumed to be the only goal for the school. Crepe Paper Failure The Beta Club, which undertook to execute the idea, ran into difficul ties with the peaks. Crepe paper failed in realism. Five yards of white cloth did better but still failed to give the true impression of gigantic, massed peaks. Mr. King and our in valuable little secretary suggested that we use some especially beautiful art paper. Mr. King said, "From the way you describe it, I believe the peaks would look like this." Rapidly, as he sketched, peaks appeared, subtle shading bringing clearly to view the idea I had visualized. With sketch in hand, two student artists enlarged and put into color the peaks of Mr. King's picture. With the final touch of the Hiwassee eagle, cast in plaster of paris by the arts and crafts class, the bulletin board was complete. The eagle of HDHS soared above the peaks of our vari ous activities, the symbol of what we really hope and believe the school to be to each student. This bulletin board is truly the result of complete cooperation. A simple thing, really, a bulletin board brought from mind to life; and yet it gives me reason to write this ar ticle, inviting all of you to come down beyond Murphy to visit one of the most ambitious, hardworking schools in North Carolina, one with ^students who, taken as a whole, are living proof that modern teenagers are people to whom we can safely entrust the future.
