ASHEVILLE, N. C. ;heu imd GOOD FOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH Eat at Dinty Moore’s The fact that Mars Hill College is in Madison County is probably the reason so many of its students are teaching in the county. They love their Alma Mater; thus it is with pure joy that they accept positions to teach near her. It might also be the reason that so many positions are offered students who are graduates of Mars Hill. People who live near the school know it best. With the high ideals and truths that these teachers have made a part of them, nothing but success and fame shall crown their efforts. The Mars Hill students now teach ing in Madison County are as loi- lows: Misses Mary E. Carter, Mrs. Norma Ramsey Harris, Margaret Ward, and Louise Webster, Marshall High School; Mr. Clarence Eller, Madison Seminary; Mr. E. O. Bur nette, Grand View; Mr. J. Winston Brice Bryan and Miss Etta Allman, Walnut Creek; Miss Dorothy Rob erts Whiteside, Miss Lee Treadway, Pleasant View; Mr. Jack V.

The Philomathian Literary Society held its regular meeting Friday, No vember 16, with a true speciment of what it tries to do each Friday eve ning. If every program of the remain ing term eqauls in quality those of the past the society will surely main tain its fine standard. A declamation entitled, “The Clos ing Scene in Ben Hur’s Chariot Race,” by J. D. Kellan, was the open ing number. This was followed by special music by Mr. Logan and Miss Roland. After this the debaters launched into the following query: Resolved, That every man between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one should be required to take military training. Questions and answers, rights and quotations filled the air in heated ar gument. Lloyd Allison and Sam Rich gallantly defended the affirmative, while Charles Weston and Jeter Haynes fought bravely for the nega tive. Each of them betrayed pleasing skill in ideas and preparation. The judges decided in favor of the affir mative by one vote. Johnny Bennett read in a pleasing manner one of Riley Scott’s poems entitled “To a Boy.” The last number was comics by Tom Dysard which were enjoyed by all. The society extends a special invi tation to any who have not yet united with one of the societies. Nonpareils Give Nature Program An effective nature program was given by the Nonpareils on November 15. The program was opened with a piano solo played by Sedahlia Propst. Sara Blackwell gave an excellent original essay, “The Influence of Na ture.” Following this Shelley’s “To a Skylark” was read by Ruby Fowler. An original stunt on the seasons was directed by Sally Allen. Evelyn Hughes introduced the seasons by a reading composed of appropriate ex tracts from literature. Spring was represented by Evangeline Peeler and Ruth Stone as sweethearts courting in the rain. The June bride, Mary Brock, and the groom, Emily Patrick, were an ideal representation of the summer months. Harvest and Thanks giving, typical of autumn, were por trayed by Hazel Wynne and Frances Watkins. Foy Norwood and Katherine Buck were eager children hanging their stockings to be filled by old Santa. Instructive current events in the field of nature were given by Eliza beth Minton. The final number was a saxaphone solo by Irma Henderson. The society was pleased to have as visitors two members of the faculty, Mrs. Biggers and Mr. Blackwell. “No Better than the Best But Better than the Reel’' 33 PATTON AVE. ASHEVILLE, N. C.

J ) I y y Mars Hill is to be congratulated on the building program which has been started. In the places of two dilapidated buildings two modern brick buildings are being erected. The building that was formerly oc cupied by Huff & Wells’ Market has been torn down and is being replaced by a modern building. This building will be owned by Messrs. T. E. Huff and O. J. Burnette. The construction of this building is being done by Mr. E. T. McCulloh, contractor, of Ashe ville. When completed it will be oc cupied by the market. Mars Hill Cafe, and possibly a barber shop. Both the market and the cafe will be modernly equipped. The other room has been mentioned as being the logical place for a first-class bar ber shop which is one thing that Mars Hill certainly needs. The other building is in the place formerly occupied by the Postoffice. The building has been leased to the Government for ten years. It is being constructed by Dr. I. E. Burnette, its owner. The building will be ready for occupancy by December 15. The Post- office will be equipped with all mod ern equipment. There will be five hundred keyless boxes which will make getting mail very convenient for the boys. Much of the credit for the new Postoffice must go to the Postmaster, Mr. P. E. Bruce. He has worked for a long time, and at last he succeeded in getting the Government interested. Mrs. Shaw (to boy in kitchen): “Did you clean the fish before you cooked it?” Boy: “Of course not, what good would it do to clean a fish that’s lived in water all its life?”—Wingate Triangle. After hearing the discussions Fri day night, November 16, for and against the adoption of an old-age government pension law, it was de cided by three judges that the United States should pension her aged citi zens who have passed beyond the venerable years of 65. The debaters who thus won the judges to this de cision in their favor were Messrs. Fred. C. Bose and W. C. Capel. The losers were Messrs G. E. Best and F. C. Harrill. Others who took part on the pro gram for November 16 were: J. W. Buckner, oration; N. B. Tunstall, declamation; F. H. Allen, impromptu np speech; M. V. Parrish, impromptu 1 own J Regan, comics. ■ By vote of the society it was de cided that more individuals shall be given opportunity for development by shortening the length of the speeches. The jokes, having very little merit as a developer, are to be elimi nated and replaced by comic selec tions, impromptu numbers, and so forth. This change is to be given a fair trial and, it is hoped, will be an improvement. COLLEGE PLAYERS PRESENT “THE ARRIVAL OF KITTY’ (Continued from Page 1) All were well suited to their r spective parts and showed a great deal of talent in presenting them. The continuous laughter and applause from the audience heralded the suc cess of the play. The complicated plot and splendid acting attributed much to the success. It is indeed hard to give any special person the greater honor because all the characters were practically of equal importance. The part of William Winkler, played by John Blackburn, probably received as great an amount of comment as any other. Sammy Morse, in the part of “Kitty,” provoked much laughter from the audience. Professor: “Conjugate the verb, to swim.’ ” Student: “Swim, swam, swum.” Professor: “Now conjugate the verb, ‘to dim.’ ” Student: “Dim, d Say, are you trying to kid me?”—University News. * * * Russell: “Is it a fact that men grow bald because of the intense ac tivity of their brains?” McRoire: “Sure. And women have no beards because of the intense ac tivity of their chins.”—Sanatorium Sun. At the regular meeting of the Scribleris Club in the Eu hall Tues day evening the program was devoted to Oliver Goldsmith. Loyd Allison gave an interesting sketch of Oliver Goldsmith’s life. James Bailey then discussed Goldsmith as a novelist. The third number on the program was “Goldsmith’s Contribution to Drama,” given by W. B. Logan. Kathleen Young concluded the pro gram with a “Bibliography of Gold smith’s Works.” After much discus sion and criticism on the program the club went into a business session. Reports were heard from various committees and then the club voted on and received the following into its membership: Eva Froneberger, Donnie Mae Norman, Virginia Isen- hour, Mattie Snyder, Ruth Stone, Elizabeth Minton, Luther Meares, James Barrett, Carl Brown, William Capel, Mrs. Grubbs, Mrs. Honeycutt, and Massey polden. These new mem bers with the former members made a total of twenty-four members. Perfect Organization Of the Hikers Club Since the first of school plans have been made to organize a group of young men into a special club with military tactics as its aim. As a re sult about twenty high-spirited fel lows have shown their approval of such a plan by presenting themselves to be put through brisk drills, which have of late grown into regular marching and drilling. Work was started Monday, November 12. According to Major-General Thomas Dysard, the staff hopes soon to have at least a hundred men in its ranks, and that the few now in train ing will later act as officers and train ers over new men yet to enlist. The present staff is composed of the following: Thomas Dysard, major- general; James Allen, captain; Joe Newbrough, first lieutenant; Ed Har rell, first sergeant; Allen Griffith, ccr- poral; Romolus Sparks, bugler; '^-mes Cherry, drummer. Mr. Blackwell has been recom mended to the faculty for faculty ad viser of the club. dramatic club PRESENTS PLAY “NO MEN WANTED’ (Continued from Page 1) At a recent meeting of the play selecting and casting committee, it was decided that “The Bank Ac count,” one of the Harvard plays, would be presented at the December meeting. The students selected to take part in this play are Helen Brown, Patty Moore, and Romulus Sparks.
