■■■ - 11 !""■*»— ■ ■■ ■■■«"■ — County Girl Tells Of Boone School Boone, Aug. 1.—This week end marks the mid-point in the second term of the Appalachian State nor mal summer school, and we have been here long enough to make some observations about the school and the country. The climate here is delightful be yond the imagining of one not fa miliar with the country. While our friends below ghe mountains have been reporting oppressive heat, the average temperature for the six weeks of the first summer school was between 63 and 64 degrees and the second, term to date, is not much beyond this. The school itself is no less un usual than the climate. Good fel lowship prevails and the whole community seems at work to make one’s stay pleasant. Each Satur day night during the whole summer the school has furnished free en lorlVmm’ents in^the auditorium, reaching in quality, from local tal ent to the work of artists of repute . in vocal and instrumental music, reading and public speaking. The total enrollment for the sun - met quarter is 1658. And now we see and hear of preparation for the largest regular year enrollment in the history of the school, August 23. This is not surprising, when ore considers that tjie expense of board • room, heat, light and registration for the entire year is only $150. That graduation from non-stand ard high schools is no longer a pay ing proposition may be seen by the fact that this school has urranged with the state department of edu cation to give college entrance ex aminations to such graduates on the opening days.
