THE IDEAL STUDENT
There are several distinct types of
students. There are those who are In
different to all tasks set before them.
There are those concerned with only
the smaller things of life and who fall
to devote their whole-hearted efforts
to the accomplishment of lasting things.
There are others whose sole aim Is to
make an Impression. One could go In
definitely naming the types of students,
but, after all, there Is the Ideal stu
dent
“Ideal, as defined by Webster." Is an
Imaginary degree of prefectlon.” His
definition for "student is a person en
gaged In studying or learning." An
ideal student, therefore, is a person
engaged In learning who has attained,
to a certain degree, perfection. Then
the Ideal student Is one who is In com
plete possession of almost all of the ad
mirable qualities.
It Is taken for granted that the Ideal
student Is trustworthy, loyal, truth
ful, honest, and other equally descrip
tive, yet nevertheless worn-out objec
tives. So let us study some of the
real qualities of the ideal student which
remain hidden and are discerned only
by minute Inspection.
The Ideal student is in school with an
express purpose. It may be to make
his parents nnd teachers proud of him
through his accomplishments. It may
even be to be agreeable with his teach
ers or to excell in his studies which is
not utterly Impossible for any student
to accomplish.
The ideal student is a thinker. His
thoughts, though directed into many
channels, are never shallow. They are
deep, clean, and of high standards.
His thoughts must be deep In order
to think through a situation which
would dumbfound the ordinary pupil.
They must be clean, high, and noble,
else how can he reach a great goal
from which he cannot deviate?
An Ideal student Is obsessed with the
Idea of work. Linked with work we
find ambition. These two act In co
operation. The Ideal student works to
accomplish certain ends which he could
not have otherwise achieved without
ambition.
Combining the qualities I have men
tioned. we find that the working,
thoughtful, ambitious person who has
the more common qualities of the or
dinary student Is the Ideal student.
Taking all In all, are the things need
ed to be possessed by the Ideal student
absolutely Impossible to reach through
a reasonable amount of effort? I think
not, for the simple reason that one
can reach anything which he has hie

mirable thing in woman.
•‘Hottie’*’ ambition Is to get on the

am—or hani_ and eggs. Speaking of
ham and eggs, how do you like cocoa
nut pie? Now cocoanut pie Is—but
say! I’m here to give you the news not
a menu. That’s me! I have a one
track mind, but It gets thrown off the
track when pie Is mentioned. The
menu—I mean the column.
That big noise you heard Wednesday
night was the senior play going over
with a bang. And I tel! you, If you
missed It, you missed the loudest bang
that ever happened In Brevard. I
thank you.
There's a new moon over the old
mill, and It's shining for "Humps” and
Beatsle. Ain't love grand?
Ray Hlleman Is Just as sweet as a
June bride huh, Una Lee? I wonder,
I wonder.
"Cowboy," let me congratulate you
on lasting through the softball tourna
ment. You are tho first umpire to last
the whole tournament. Ycu also have
my—may I mention the fact that the
seniors won?
"Chick” are you still looking for
Emma Lou?
"Ollie” hold those boys’ coats while
they do the work, or can you?
"Scotty*’ and "Smarth," that makes
one and a half, don't It?
"John” D., what’s the matter with
1 your bat?
"Mary Alice," take your toys and go
home.
"Bershak," you better start saying
good-bye to Zella May now so as to
have plenty of time.
Miss Jarvis says to knock on her
door so the mayor can hear It. Don't
be a piker with your noise.
What! No seniors made the honor
roll this month?
Pew, what you need Is a pair of rol
ler skates and somebody to hold you
up. ^How about the flat tire?
Grady B„ what makes your hair so
curly?
Doyle D. are you still flying blind?
Oh! I was lust checking up.
Well, here I go, but I will return
next week with glad tidings of the
close of school. I'm going to get a
piece of pie. Wonder If my credit Is
good.
No!
W'ell, It was a good Idea anyway,
while It lasted.

John’s Rock CCC
Be Used By Balsam Workers
Work U going forward at John’s
Rock CCC camp, with the view of
transferring the Balsam Grove camp
to that location.
The old Bent Creek camp equipment
is being moved from the Mills River
section to John's Rock, and the trans
fer of enrollees will be made sometime
within the next few weeks.
John's Rock was one of the first
camps erected In Western Carolina,
and was abandoned In January 1986,
after the specific work which the en
rolleee started had been completed.
The Balsam Grove outfit has been
split Into two units, with a side camp
of 60 men stationed at the old F-26
camp In Haywood county. By moving
the F-14 enrollees of John's Rock the
Sunburst F-26 camp and its companion
outfit will be closer together, and work
of the two units can be carried on
with greater efficiency.
Both units are continuing work on
the Tennessee Gap highway which will
tap the Great Smoky Mountain scenic
drive, and at the same time carrying
on their work of fire protection and
reforestation.
Captain George S. Obear, of Atlanta,
Ga., Is In charge of construction at
John’s Rock. He has been In the ser
vice for over two years, and has had
charge of several camps. He was
recently promoted from the rank of
lieutenant to captain for his outstand
ing work in the CCC.
Effort Is being made by the Brevard
Chamber of Commerce to have the fed
eral government leave the Balsam
Grove camp property intact, and al
located to this section as a tourist
camp, under supervision of the local
civic group.

In a neighbor's bouse.
The coon ha^ broken out ot his cus
tomary night lodging In a cage at the
Blnlard home some time In the night
Monday, and wandered to the home of
a neighbor, presumably bunting for
the protection of his own home. He
had found bis way Into the neighbor
house In some way, and while attempt
ing to escape through a window, the
neighbor, mistaking the animal for a
suspicious night prowler, shot at and
killed him.
The coon had been in the Blnlard
family as a pet for three years, since
Its baby stage. The animal had en
deared himself to the entire family, to 1
whom his death was the cause of real
grief. He delighted In playing with
the children and the dog and cats on
the place.
