With this in mind we have tried to live up to the best that is in us and have made this number, as nearly as possi- ble, a complete summary of both this year and the foregoing years. We hope you will not be too harsh in your criticisms, for as pioneers we have not had such an easy road to travel, and it has been only by the co-op- eration of both faculty and stu- dents that we have succeeded in publishing this issue. 0: -] w 9 % f i (En (Our Hnmireb ItJrestbent o lias sn hnlliiiijly ;mb liuirtliilu mbeb nl lli c ua thrnujjl] tljE year in tireless effort tnluarii ®ur (Soal 3Ue lofaiitglu l1e iratc g ? § r 7Ts 1 9 ' 4- s) ?v or c ' U TOT) . k ' € fS m v « e i V --j - h U Uk r . r u s A.

In that year the, J (lOncralAsscinlily of the State of North ( ' •irolina dechircd fifteen rei)res( ' nta- tive MH ' Ti of FraiikUii County, a body pohtic •uid corporate to lie known and distinguished at the Trustees of Franklin Academy, and liy that name should have perpetual succession. liOuisliurR was the seat of learninf;; of all Eastern North Carolina. It was not until ISt). ) that the school was really opened in the old buildinR with Matthew Dickerson, a native of Connecticut and a graduate of Yale, as its jirincipal. The students were to receive instruction in reading, writing, arithmetic, luiglish grammar, geography, helles-lettres , and rhetoric, ethics, meta- physics, philosophy, algebra, geometry, (rigonom( try, conic sections, altimetry, longinietry, mensuration of superficies and solids, surveying, navigation, and as- tronomy, Latin, (!reek, Hebrew, French and Italian languages and all for the sum of •?26 per annum. Mr. Dickerson must also have been a wonderful finaiuier, for we are told that in the three years that he taught he acquired an estate quite sufficient to subserve the rational purposes of life, ' ' namely, a farm of more than 300 acres, six slaves and a quantity of stock. In 1S13 it was found necessiry to add a female department to the Franklin Academy and the old building, which still stands on the edge of the campus, was erecteil for the purpose of instructing young ladies in reading, writing, English grammar, arithmetic, geography, astron- omy, painting and mu.sic and useful and ornamental needlework. In 1816 Mr. John B. Bobljitt was principal of the .Academy and Miss Partridge, a lady from Massachusetts, was in charge of the Seminary. Mr. Bobbitt and Mi.ss Partridge became victims of the V)lin(l god ' s arrow and were married. Under the joint leadcrshi]) of these two worthy jieople the.se schools established a reputation that has made them famous. During the century that has passed since then and through the many changes and vicissitudes of passing years our dear old College has ever maintained her struggle and dignity. The main part of the present College l uilding was erected in 185G and was rightly considered one of the most handsome of its kind. From its classic walls have gone oui streams of infltience, always Christian in character, which have glatldened and blessed the lives of all who have come within its sphere. She stood unscathed throughout the bloody storm of civil war with a man of wis- dom and culture at her head. In the spring of 18G.5 Mr. Southgate and his famil}- moved into the Old Academy, and our beautiful building, for such it was then, be- came a hospital for «ick soldiers of the Federal troops that were garri.soned in our midst. At one time, on account of debt, our Alma Mater was about to go into the hands of Northern philanthropists as a school for Colorful Presbyterians, but a timely amendment to its charter provided tliat it should be used as a school for the white race forever. In 1891 the property came into the hands of the great-hearted Washington Duke, and was held by him for the education of North Carolina women during the remainder of his natural life. In 1907, on the death of Mr. Washington Duke, I V -4 1 5 h- the property was given the North Carolina Conference by his son, Mr. Benjamin Duke. Since the church has assumed control of the property and policy of the school, the Davis Memorial Building has been erected and a laboratory and a cen- tral heating plant installed. In 1915 the College made application for Junior College rating with the (ieneral Board of Education, which was granted. So, through the years, Louisburg College has been training young women to take thei r part in the World ' s Work. To this end we will ever strive iind wilh full hearts, willing hands and earnest prayers do all we can to aid ou - dear old Louisburg College in her work for the highest ik ' vel- opment of Christian womanhood. 3 ' or f 3 S 9: 9 ■•=il I (!

We look at her in awe and wonder how slie can be so serious and dignified at some specific times. She is not only good, but she works patiently each day trying to do her bit as she struggles along life ' s rugged path.

Though a loyal member of the Class of ' 23, we know her less than any other member, because she has so little time to spenrl with us. We admire her for her never-fading cour- age, especialh in her piano course, for she is the only one of us lucky enough to receive a piano diploma. If some of the other members of the class would only stop talking and give her a chance, maybe Mae would say something, but uj) to tliis time she listens most- ly to the chatter of others, and looks wise. -4 2 4 f- r i ( W i i n 8r h o i ' i ' isa Noithean Society: Lifo Executive Board; ' i ' liK ]Mary ( ' arolyn Crowell, xkw london, n. c.

' ' Margaret is a sincere girl, lialher r niet and reserred, A siudint who has really worked, And all she ' s ivon she has deserved. Margaret is one member of the .Senior Class who has never been told she lacks dignity, for she rustles throi gh the halls in her modest, dignified manner. Her dignity appears most during English and Hible periofls. for then she listens attentively, and never buts in while others are talking. Her .s|iecialtv is cutting ' ' jiapcr dolls in her Prang course.

History taught us what the past did, How they lived and what they wrought. Foreign langucuje of our neighbors, How they spoke and wh(d they taught. English of our own rich language. Like a well, pure, undejiled; Sometimes in thought, of depths surpxissing, Sometimes si7nple as a child. Art, music and e.vpres.sion Taught the beautiful in life, Bible of the ivorld ' s Great Teacher Who preached love opposed to strife; Science of the world around us Math. — of problems hard to .solve, All to give us greater power When with life ' s harder problems ive involve. Thus we stand at ways, dividing Past and future, both in view. Of the future, that ' s the question. Know we not what it may do. Of the past. Oh, ask we praying That the path which we have trod, Leads us upward, surely, truly, To the path that leads to God. -4 3 2 J=- K. B.

Mai.y changes have lu ' en hroimlit ahout in administration, faculty, and students. In the f-ill of lltlU twenty-six freslinien viewed Ihe porlals of Louisburg Col- l.. M., many for the first time. Today wc stand before you as seventeen Seniors, who have stood the test of time. In our freslunan year we learned the signifieanee of Student Government, and what it meant to disobey its rules. Inder the supervision of our uillmg sister class we organized our class, and entered whole-heartedly into the task before us. When we met at Louisburg in 1020 and organized the Sophomore Class we re- gret t.nl very much that many of our former cla.ssmatx ' s had dropped out, and though many new ones had taken their places, there were only seventeen of us. However, we were filled with class spirit and loyalty. We were all much grieved to give up our beloved president, Ir. Love, in the ...iddle of our Sophomore y.-ar. However, we learned to love Mr. Massey, who proved a most kind and sympathetic president. s Juniors, we met and found that we numbenHl only fourte(Ui. It seemed that fate was against us, as there were twenty-seven Seniors. But, filled with loyalty and enthusia.sm under the able guidance of Margaret Ledbetter, our president, we played our part. We gave th.- Seniors a reception which had not been sur- passed in the history of the College. . t the en.l of the year our president again left us, and was succeeded l)y Professor A. W. Mohn. Today we are seventeen loyal hard-working Seniors. We love our president, as we have loved no other. Even though we are few, we will see the fight through. We ' re giving to Louisburg College, which has stood for one hundred and twenty- one vears, its first annual. We are paving the way fur those who follow, and hope that they will perfect the plan that we have begun. fter graduation, we float out on the sea of life, some to land on foreign shore.s, others to be worn and washed away by the battle-tide of life. But may ea.h in her journey help som.- weaker brother towar.l the goal to which each is struggling. After the i)altle is fought and won, may the sevent( en meet in perfect peace be- yond the billowy foam. jj ..y ■ } It C Clasisi ropbecp IT was in June, 193S, that I received tlie insiiiratiou. ami tliis is iiow it liajv pened. I was tuclved away in my little rose garden reading the new nunilxr of the Musical America, when these words met my eyes: ' 0 , V. 5) : FAMOUS OPERA SINGER MAKES DEBUT IN AMERICA 5) ' ' Madame Francesca Xavior Russo, Italian opera singer, will make her first appearance at the Metropolitan in the role of Leonora on October 6th, 1938. Fran- cesca Russo is the favorite dramatic so- prano of today. She has snng in many parts of the Old World for the last five j ' ears, and all Euroi)e is at her feet. I finished the article with breathless interest. Imagine, Fran Russo, of the Class of ' 23 ! Of course, we expected it, but to see the words in cold print astounded me and, incidentally, brought the inspiration. It came in a flash as really-truly inspirations do. I would bring the members of the Class of ' 23 togethei in New York for Fran ' s delnit, and for a glorious reunion. We would spend one week of pure fun and frivolity. But where were the other fifteen members of our class? Of course, I knew that Genevieve Peltz was the President of the United States, having cast my vote for her in the last election, but of the others I knew nothing. However, find them I would. Th( following month was spent in feverish activity by the means of the Louis- burg College Alumnse Association, the National dailies and private detective force. I learned many astonishing facts of the Class of ' 23. I was highly gratified, but not surprised, to learn that the affairs of the world could scarcely be carried on without some members of our class. Had noi Essie Lilcs puL John Henry Ford entirely in the shade by inventing an adorable little car that ran on the water and sold for §500 a dozen? She gladly welcomed my suggestions concern- ing the reunion, and offered to furnish cars for us wliile there. I learned that Carolyn Crowell had just returned from the Fijii Islands, where she was suc- cessful in smoothing out the diplomatic relations between the natives and the United States. When she learned of the plan, Carolyn wired, approving whole heartedly. •4 3 4 li:- I x 3 (t I ■ i - Nr t. 1 discovered lliiil 1 lie aiit lior of ;i series of ai ' I ieles ealled, I low to ( ' ilteli a Man and Hold Mini, ' ' piiliiisheii in (lie Ladies ' Home .loninai, was iki less fliau ( iradie I ' arker.

Xell .loni ' s was one of the favorite eartooni.sts of Hie day, having caught the pulilic eye with even more success tlian Rud I ' Mslui- and (leorp;e McManus. She welcomed the |)lan joyfully. ' lortunatcly, Katherine Hrady was (jii her way from Japan, where she had been rendering efficient service Christianizing the heathen. She gladly approved my .scheme, hectiuse, as she said, she needed some diversion. ( ' hrisliani .ing the heathen was such strenuous work. ' •, ' i r ' Of coursi ' . thei-e were some obstacles ihat at fir.st seemed to jiievenl the fullill- metit of our plan. Kat Melvin, the wife of a rising young denlisi in Charlotte, wrote me that she had just put the twins in school and hated to leave them at this critical time. However, she decided to join us, ])rovided her husband sent herdaily reports on the progress of the cherubs. Glandora Hirdison. too, was jiainting a set of china for the King of Kngland, which she hail to have finished, according to contract, at a certain date, but fortunately King Edward kindly consented to ex- tend the contract, and, of cour.se, she came. Charlotte Pittniaa was at the head of a successful chicken ranch in North Carolina. She, also, at first WTote that she couldn ' t come, b( cause she jiad one ])articiil;ir little chick who was so devoted to h(T that she feared if she left him lie woidd die of grief, but lin:dl - she decided to bring him along. The other membors of the class responded promptly and gladly to my plan, pro- nouncing it a blessed in jjiration. Mae Campbell, whose Canipbcll ' s Candies had grown as famous as Camj)- bell ' s soup, wired her a])prov;d. Margaret Davis, ballet dancer in New York, cancelled all her ])erl ' orinances for that p ' irticular week. Josephine Fuller, the best auctioneer in the South, wrote that she was thrilled over the prospects. Minnie Lee Winstead, the best dressed woman in Roxboro and wife of its most prominent citizen, heartily endorsed the plan. She was glad to add to the pres- ■j tige that was hers in Roxboro by this trip to New ' ( rk. - J3 5l ■ f ' r v pg i -j!r . Z ,- -. i r ' ' . -. — % We caught Mary Wilson, now a competent engineer, on the eve of her departure to Africa. Here she was going to perform the much talked of miracle of utilizing the Sahara D?sert and transforming it to a second Garden of Eden. She stayed over for the reunion, of course. Bettie consented to leave her husband and her home in Youngsvillc, for the first time since their marriage, in order to join us. So it was finally arranged. Everybody was coming. We planned to meet at the Grand Central Station on October 3rd. At last I started on my journey, my heart full of glorious anticipation, and eager to see again the faces of my be- loved classmates. This is neither the time nor the place to describe in detail the meeting of the seventeen members of the Chiss of ' 23. There was much laughing, talking and kissing and, possibly, a tear or two. Some faces had changed — years necessarily bring changes, but for the time being we were rejuvenated, again school girls with care-free hearts. ' Twas a happy meeting. M. L. ' 23.

To rest — to enjoy ourselves — And by this rest to say we forget The thousand petty troubles That an Annual staff is heir to — ' tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished. To be at ease — to rest — To rest! perchance to regret! Aye, there ' s the rub; For in that period of rest what dreams may come Of a good Annual that we might have produced? For who would bear the whips and scorns of unbelieving schoolmates, The pangs of dispriz ' d work, the photographers ' delay, The publishers ' nagging, and the numerous Troubles of a first effort. When we ourselves might our peace assure By merely wishing it? Who would these troubles bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life. But for the hope of seeing at the end The Oak? Thus amliition doth make workers of us all ; And thus the desire of rest and ease is cast aside. And enterprises of great pith and moment are l egun. M. L.
