College at Red Springs Noted For its Varied Courses in Music the students at Flora Macdonald College are able fi- ; nancially to attend any college, one The six large brick buildings ot colonial architecture have steam heat, electric lights, and all modern con veniences. Being under one roof, they provide unusual protection, comfort, and convenience for the students. The capacity is limited to 275 boarding students. Commodious and vine-covered, the collage stands in the ‘midst of a beautiful campus including lovely flower gardens, flowing streams and woodland. It is known as ons of the beauty spcts of the Carolinas. Many visitors enjoy its loveliness. A famous university botanist recently stated that it is one of the best locations in the state for the study of botany. The college tnjoys ideal surround ings. being situated in the t.wn of Red Springs, a cultured and hospitable Southern town, in the heart of liie Cape Fear River vailey, thirty-five miles from Pinehurst and Southern Pines. The mild climate encourages outdoor life throughout the year. The college has a most remarkable health record, due in part to the medical properties of the celebrated mineral springs upon the campus. The best religious influences prevail at Flora Macdonald College. The Bi ble is a textbook studied by all and the ideals and atmosphere of the col- Itge naturally produce the highest type cf Christian character. Opportunities for worship and re ligious activity are provided by the Flora Macdonald Christian Associa tion, the Sunday School, and the churches of the community. All the major athletic sports for women are enjoyed—hockey, basket ball, baseball, archery, tennis, hikin.s^ swimming, as well as indoor games in the gymnasium. The director of physical education is gifted in making the required physical exercises helpful and enjoy able. Spirited inter-class contests create interest and provide keen com petition for athletic teams. Provision is made for the social life of the students. All may enter tain their friends at the college and participate in public receptions and teas besides the various student so cial occasions. Students and teachers mingle freely. The colle,re life is very much like that of a great happy fam ily. Two literary societies conducted by the students offer opportunities for many forms of literary activity and training in parliamentary practice and public speaking. Many leaders in women’s religious organizations, fed erated clubs and other organized ac tivities for women, were trained at Flora Macdonald College. More than 4,000 young women have attended Flora Macdonald College, a large proportion of whom have graduated. They have mad& splendid records in graduate courses and in the work of the world. The curricu lum of the College of Liberal Arts leads to the Bachelor of Arts de gree in Home Economics. of the most important features of the college is its policy in offering self- : help to worthy students who other wise would be unable tO' attend col lege. This aid to students is in several forms: First, there is a small number of free scholarships. These are, of course, claimed far in advance. Many more are needed. Second, all the work about the col lege, which is suitable, is done by the students. This includes waiting upon the tables in the dining room, assist ance to professors in laboratories, class rooms, and business offices. These number sixty-nine. In addition to this, forty-seven students enjoy NYA scholarships. The c:llege also has a loan fund from which seventeen students (Jun iors and seniors) are able to borrow $100.00 a year. The Student Aid en able many fine young women of the Cape Fear country to secure a college education and occupy places of con spicuous usefulness in this section. This feature also offers a splendid oppoitunity for investment by those who are interested in the development of the young women of this section. Flora Macdonald College has al ways been noted for the splendid mus ic in its conservatory. This is due in no small measure to its good fortune in having as founder Mr s Charles G. Vardell. one of the most outstanding musicians the state has ever pro duced. Under her wise leadership a very high standard was set which has been maintained through the years, and 1 now the conservatory is recognized I as one of the leading schools of mus- i ic in the South. i ' AVhen failirg health caused Mrs. j Verdell to resign she w'as made Dean (Emeritus and her son, Charles G. V'ardell, Jr., ably carried on the work until called to be dean of the School of Music at Salem College, Today the conservatory is forging ahead under the enthusiastic direc tion of Hugh Williamson, successful teacher, concert artist and composer. Advanced s.udents take part in public recitals once each quarter. which are attended by both students, town folks, and many from near-by towns. For the younger students there is a special afternoon recital occurr ing at frequent intervals, which gives the junior music department an opportunity for public performance ant’ stimu’a'.es an interest in the •vvork. The con'=ervatory haf a splendidly trained pi:e club, comp:.sed of testeu voices, under the direction of Mrs, Evelyn Potter Williamson, head ot the voice department. The glee club is much in demand for concerts. f E. J, Austin, student at the U. N. C. arrived Saturday to spend the Spring holidays with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Austin. Ralph Chandler, Jr., of Davidson College spent the week-end in South ern Pines. Don't forget to visit the Curb Mar ket Saturday. Kmmanurl KpiKop*! Charrh Kev. K. Craijrhill Urown, B. A., B.
