HISTORY OF SENIOR HIGH CLASS OF ’33 It was in September, 1931, that the good ship Frethmau, having wandered over the Sea of Learning for a year, was anchored at Mon- treat Normal on Sophomore Mill. Among the crew were quite a number of ambitious young ladies who intended to settle there. During the first year of the settlement many trials and tribulations arose, such as—the Algebraic plague and English fever. Symptoms of Ignorance appeared, but the colonists put forth a noble effort to overcome them with that famous remedy, the Hooks of Learning, but the effort was futile. After nine months of this the colonists set out for another settlement. Some liked other settlements better and forsook their comrades, but some (including Martha Thompson, Luelle Staples, Betsy Miller, Ruth Branch and Sara Knox) could not be better satisfied and returned to Montreat. This time they settled in Junior Valley and were soon joined by others, among whom were Lillie Mac Jolley, Eugenia Caldwell, and Grace Flicd- ncr. The attacks of Ignorance came less and less often as the settlers consumed larger and larger amounts of the above remedy. This year, nevertheless, was a restless one for the eight colonist', and so they roamed a little higher up the valley and chanced upon the broad and fertile Senior Plain. They found that Kdna McMillan, one lone colonist from a different settlement, had wandered here and was last on the wide plain. Gladly they took her into their number and together, with her. dug for a year in the- fields. How bountiful is the harvest of knowledge that the valiant nine have reaped!! SARA KNOX, Historian, 33.

Pjge Ten T H F. S I N l 1 A L Momki ai Normal School MONTREAT NORMAL GIVEN CRKDIT AS JUNIOR COLLEGE AND TEACHER TRAINING Each official, teacher and student of the Montre.it Normal School is rejoicing over the great new that at last our school has been given full credit by the State authorities for the work done in the College and Teacher Training departments. Many improvements have been made during the last few years in equipment, degrees, etc., and we arc happy that our hope has been realized. The student graduating from the Normal Department thi spring will be given certificates for their work that will be honored in this State and others where they are seeking teaching positions. PRIZES OFFERED BY MRS. A. L. BYRD At the beginning of the session, Mrs. A. L. Byrd, of Charlotte and Montreat, offered a certain amount of money to be given in prizes as the Faculty might decide. Prize were offered to the girl whose influence in the .-chool ha meant most in a spiritual way, to the girl who has kept the neatest room throughout the session, to the girl in the college classes making the highest scholastic standing, and to the one in the High School making the same record; another amount was designated for special attainment in the Home Economics Department. Below are listed the names of the students who have won these various prizes. Miss Dora Lou Warren, of Sumter, S. C., received a five dollar prize as the student whose influence in the school has meant most in a spiritual way. Dora Lou has been loving, helpful and kind and has served faithfully as the president of the Young People’s Society and also as a leader in prayer groups. Her influence throughout the year has been for her Master. A prize of live dollars was offered for the best kept room during the school term. Competition along this line has been keen, eleven girls making “A” every day of the year, and three making “A plus, fhirtv-four girls have not made below “A” plus. The prize this year will be divided between Ann Evelyn Owens, Frances Malcom, and Virginia Braswell, with special mention of Kathryn Rhyne and Lucilc Gardner. Honorable mention is alio made of Nellie Means, Louise Crawford, Inez Galloway, Mary Frazier, Marjorie Taylor, and Cora Belle Orr. The live dollars offered in the Home Economics Department was designated for the girl doing the most efficient and faithful work in both theory and practice in Food and Clothing. The prize is to be divided equally between Ruth Coleman and Inez Galloway. I he scholarship prizes have been won by Lucilc Gardner from the College Classes, and by Sara Knox from the High School Class. These students have each made a splendid record throughout the nine months in all their subjects, and deserve this recognition. We appreciate the great interest Mrs. Byrd has shown in our School and thank her for making these awards possible. • o------------ MILDRED WILLIAMS VOTED BEST E1. ROUND SI UDENT To Mildred William goes the great honor this session of being voted the best all-round student in the Montreal School. Mildred has served as president of the student body and has won the love and admiration of the entire school. She is to be congratulated on winning such a distinct honor, and on being presented with the loving cup offered by Mr. and Mr. Joseph Porchcr. SARAH BURROWS STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT ELECT Sarah Burrows, of Oswego, S. C., has been elected bv the student body as their president for the next session. Sarah has proven her- self trustworthy in every way during her one year in the Montreal Normal and we feel confident -he will execute her duties in this important office with keen judgment and loving sympathy. We congratulate Sarah on this honor and also congratulate ourselves on having her as our President. ■ --------o--------- THE WELL-EARNED BANQUET 1 wonder what those girls are doing, sitting around on the campus alone. They seem to be studying something; let's take a peep and see what it is. It's a book or something—a very small book to be working so hard on. Why it’s the catechism, of course; but can wc blame them' Mr-. Dorsey is behind them. I.-,: - look in on (hose same girls the evening of May 7. How different they look! Eleven girl- all -miles. Something's up! Iarl’s watch and find out what. Soon we find them tripping over to the Inn. When they reach the Inn. they find everything bright and cheery, and they are greeted by Mr. and Mr . Dorsey. In a few minutes the girls arc invited into the dining-room. How attractive the long table look-. Why it's a banquet! 1 he girls find their places and are soon all seated with Mr. and Mrs. Dorsey at each end of the table. You can imagine the proceedings at the table—who wouldn’t at a turkey banquet: Afterward games weic played, contests were held and jigsaw puzzles worked. Everybody present had a good time. And to think those girls get Bibles with their names in gold letters on them, loo. The reward alone is well worth the reciting of the Catechism, bc- idc the knowledge gotten from it. What a pity they can’t recite it all over again. ■ o ■ ■ ■ MARY RICHARDSON W INS SCHOLARSHIP Montrcat is very proud of one of her students, who has won a scholarship to Agnes Scott College. In March, Mar) Richardson took the competitive examinations, and wc congratulate her for being among the winners. Though we are sorry to lose her. we are glad that it is Agnes Scott with which we are to share her. —---------o--------- THE FRIEND Friends: Do we have any friends: To many of us there comes a time when all our friends seem to desert us. We feel as if no one knows us or cares for us. Wc are alone in the crowd. Yet, we should pause in our thoughts of loneliness, and perhaps bitterness, to think of our greatest Friend of all. The Friend that is greater and dcarei than all others can ever be is Jesus Christ, a Friend to all. May we remember this when in despair; May we take it to Him in prayer. Oh, may we bow to His Will Divine, And say, our love, our life, our all, arc Thine. THE ETA SIGMA PHI MEDAL 1 hi Eta Sm.ma Phi medal, which has been given every year since 1930. has been won this year for the first time by two stu- dents.
