Hall Housemother By Mary H. Sullivan Mrs. Smith, our new House Mother at College Hall, comes to us from Glasgow, Ky., where she was a licensed practical nurse in the Tubercular Sanatorium. We know that she will be an asset to our College. Mrs. Smith, who likes to work with young people, is ready to help you in any way possible. She expressed her opinion of Montreat when she said, “If I had twelve daughters, I would send them all to Mon treat.” DR. AND MRS. DUNSFORD— From Page 1 The Dunfords say that they are thrilled with the new paint job in the Music Build ing, and the way things have been shap ing up, up there. By the way. Dr. and Mrs. Dunford are the proud owners of a 1949 Willys jeepster whose name is “Hadacol”. She sounds like a coffee grinder but is the fastest . . . well, almost the fastest automobile in Montreat. s is T (To get the desired effect, the following article must be read in a monotone.) See if you can identify any of these men. Police chief Vivian Lewis is questioning them now. (By all means get a mental picture of this before you read on.) Q. What is your name? A. Dr. Taylor. Q. Where did you instruct before com ing to Montreat? A. Mercer University, Macon, Georgia. Q. What degrees do you hold? A. A.B.; A.M.; and PhD. Q. How do you like being an instructor at Montreat? A. 1 think it is very fine here. Q. How many years have you taught previous to this year? A. Forty-nine years. Q. What do you think of this school and its students? A. The students here are about like those I have been accustomed to, and the school is very fine. Some off-the-record facts: Dr. Taylor teaches School Management, Elementary Education, and Educational Psychology. Dr. Taylor is in charge of the Educational Department. The second person to be questioned by Vivian was Mr. Stockton. Q. How do you being an instructor at Montreat? A. This question is one of the hardest I have ever had to answer. To say I like Montreat would seem rather tepid. To say I was thrilled with it would sound gushy. I could side-step the issue and say that my “orientation” is not complete —stop back by in five years! This would, of course, fail to satisfy the reporter and readers. The best I can do is list some facts and let you draw your own conclus ions: I enjoy teaching . . . Montreat is beautiful . . the Christian atmosphere is inspiring ... the wholesome, happy atti tude of the young people is exhilerating . . . my family is happy and 1 get plenty to eat . . . need I say more? Q. Where did you teach before coming to Montreat? A. I taught in Bclvidere, New Jersey; Lakewood, New Jersey; and Somerville, New Jersey. I have had six years’ bus iness experience. Q. What degrees do you hold? A. B.S. in Business Education, and 18 credits at Temple University in Distribu tive Education. Q. How many years have you taught previous to this year? A. Thirteen years. Other facts acquired by our interviewer: Mr. Stockton teaches Accounting, Typing (beginning and advanced), Business Eng lish, and Economics. Mr. Stockton has three children: David, 14; Mary, 12; and Susan, 8. !honis Becomes lontreat Col. Singers By Jean Gladney There has been a drastic change in the college chorus, and it is not in name only. The name itself has been changed to the Montreat College Singers, but the more noticeable change is the addition of two men to the heretofore decidedly female group. The Singers, under Mr. Guy’s direction, will travel farther and wider than ever this year. They have already sung at Moore General Hospital; for the Asheville American Legionnaires; and at Inca and Waynesville High Schools. An evening performance at the First Presbyterian Church of Greenville, South Carolina, has been scheduled for November 27, with an appearance on WFBC-TV in Greenville the following day. Mr. Guy believes that this is the most talented group Montreat College has had so far. He says the singers have advanced faster than in previous years, due largely to the fact that two-thirds of last year’s chorus members remained in the group. According to Mr. Guy there have never been so many talented accompanists. Besides the annual Christmas concert here on campus, the Singers will present programs in Marion, Morganton, and Lin- colnton. North Carolina; and in other near by high schools. On February 24, 1956 an extensive southern tour will begin. Included in this tour will be performances given in churches, schools, and television stations in Tampa, Miami, Key West, and St. Petersburg, Florida. The girls (plus A. C. and Jack) will sing at the Naval hospital in Jacksonville; for the Daytona Beach Rotary Club; in high schools in Hollywood, Deland, Lakeland, and Talla hassee, Florida; and at Savannah and At lanta, Georgia.
