The first Methodist Church ini Swannanoa was a log structure called Davidson’s Chapel- It was located on land near what is now Warren Wilson College. This log structure burned, and in its place a frame building was erected. About 1880 the church was moved to a location above the Swannanoa Valley station. Swan nanoa at that time was called Cooper Station. About 1917 Rev. R. F. Honeycutt, then pastor, helped plan and build the parson age, where it now stands. Later, in 1918, Rev. Mr. Bogle and his congreagtion decided to build a church down near the parsonage. This was a frame building. This building served the Methodist in Swannanoa until 1937 when under leadership of Rev. W- H. Benfield, the present new brick building, with beautiful auditorium, 12 class rooms, large basement which serves as recreation hall, dining room, and connecting with this large recreation room is a nice kitchen. During the pastorate of Mr. Benfield, great progress was made on the building. By 1942 the auditorium, with exception of pews and pulpit furniture, was completed. The present pastor, the Rev. V. R. Masters began his ministry in 1942. Since that time the church has been completed. A modem heating plant has been installed, and new mahogany pews and pul pit furniture was installed in June 1945. On Sunday, September 9, 1945, the church was dedicated. | The dedicatory sermon was I preached by Rev. A- C. Gibbs sup erintendent of the Asheville Dis trict, who also led in the act of dedication with the Rev.

I would like to write about how well the people of Swannanoa Val ley back the school and its activi ties. Beacon has bought a lot of equipment for our lunchroom. With their help the lunchoom has been improved greatly. After a hard game the merchants set the football players up to candy, soft drinks, etc. The men of Swan nanoa have erected a box in I Bright’s Grocery to collect money , to give the players a banquet. The school is selling magazines and gets a certain percent of sales, the people cooperate and buy these magazines. o By Marian Morgan. On November 21 at the Warren Wilson College, at 8:00 o’clock p.m., a united Swannanoa Valley Thanksgiving service was held. Piney Grove Presbyterian Church, Berea Baptist Church and Warren Wilson Presbyterian Church were represented. Members of all three churches took part in the pro gram. Members of the farm at Wilson College had decorated the stage in harvest style, with shocks of com, bales of hay, all sorts of vegetables and one side was the side of a barn, with rakes and hoes standing by. It was very nice and I am sure everyone en joyed the lovely scenery. o By Merle Eller and Margaret White We take pleasure in writing and telling you about one of our best ' hikeing places in Swannanoa Val ley. This place is called “Flat Top.” It is one of the prettiest sights anyone has ever seen when the leaves are turning all colors. Flat Top has three flats. It is about four or four and a half miles , long- The first flat is not so hard s to climb, you have straight climb ing, straight up a mountain, you 1 cross a fence and then you are on 1 the second flat. The second flat is the hardest one to climb, it has | j a rock cliff that you have to al-1 1 most crawl on your hands and knees to get up. The rock cliff 1 is very steep climbing, but it is fun to climb. The third flat is : very pretty it is very grassy and i looks almost like a movie scene, i It is fun going up, but it is more fun coming down, because you know you are almost home. After ! you have been to Flat Top there ; is certainly no place like home. o i By Frances Whitaker i Each day on W.W.N.C. at 6:30 a different school is presented to tell the listners about the various • activities of their school- The • Swan Club of Swannanoa High is i in charge of electing and prepar • ’’ng a speaker for our broadcasts. ■ We have had two speakesr already and on December 19 we will pre sent another. Miss Parker, direc tor of Women’s Activities of W.W. N.C., helps the students with his or her script, when he arrives at the studio and makes any neces sary changes, after the script has been altered the announcer then goes over it and times it so that it will last for the alloted time. When the script is timed and changed you are then taken to the studio, here you sit at a small table near a microphone until your time comes to speak. o By Bobby Bailey. I would like to send you a de scription of my favorite scene in the Swannanoa Valley. In this small valley are many beautiful scenes but to me the most beau tiful of them all is the moon ris ing through the pine trees and re flecting in the cool water of a small mountain lake. When night falls and the moon rises the soft calling of the birds blends with the soft mummering of the water and the swaying of the pine trees in the cool night breeze. The moon casts a silver reflection upon the blue waters. The soft sounds of the night and moonlight creates a beautiful scene- The Grovemont Lake is truly a beautiful scene at dusk. o By Hazel Nanney.
