Commencement is one of the most thrilling events of our lives. It is a time in which we must choose a vocation or our life’s work. Up to this time we have been preparing ourselves to face higher and more definite aims. Our school aims were attained by the influence and guidance of our friends and instructors. Since we will soon be only one amongst the masses, our attainments will be reached only by building upon the foundation that has been laid for us and by living up to the ideals that have been set before us, both of which are strongly characterized in our school seal, Strength. Beauty, Truth—To be and not to Seem”. As we set out to accomplish our tasks many fascinating but shallow pleasures will ever confront us to draw us toward the downward road. How can we overcome such temptations unless we are strong? We must endeavor to keep our bodies strong and healthy, but above all let us keep strong in mind and will. Let us be strong enough to say no” when the crowd accepts, to stand firm when others plunge blindly or heedlessly on, and to step forward when others shrink. Beauty is a characteristic all of us may have. True beauty is of the soul, but there can also be a genuine physical beauty for usually our inward feelings are revealed through our outward appearances. Beauty is also strongly revealed through unselfish acts. All along the way there are many who are downcast and discouraged. A few words of cheer, and deeds of kindness will do miracles toward beautifying their lives and ours. With such characteristics as strength and beauty we have the power to stand for those things that are true. Let us not pretend, but be that which we seem. Let it be said of us— “They loved, they suffer'd countless ills. They battled for the True, the Just. So, as we start out this commencement, let us ever be loyal to our school and friends who have meant so much to us by, “Strength. Beauty, and Truth—To be and not to Seem”. THK B ACC A LAIR K ATE SERMON On Sunday morning. May 13. the Baccalaureate service was held in the Anderson Auditorium.

The Seniors got their table—plus steak and cake for supper. April 16, 1934— My what a day! The Senior dinner. We peeled, skinned and chopped all day.

P R O P H E C Y It was in the year of our Lord 1949. and was a lovely May morning. YVe sat thinking of other May mornings such as this in the years gone by, and our thoughts went hack to our graduation day in Montreat, a day when eighteen dignified seniors marched down the aisles of the Anderson Auditorium all eager to be out in the world—little suspecting what the future would bring forth. Today we were sitting in an office. On the door one might read, Miriam Altec, Private Secretary to the President, and who was the president ? you may ask. Well, on the opposite door one would read, “Becky Seafler. President. National Broadcasting Company. 'Phis was what fifteen short years had brought to us. We had been very fortunate since our departure from Mon- treat. and. wondering how life was treating the rest of our old classmates, we decided to find out by television. 'Phis was not quite so difficult as it may seem, because all we had to do was look through the files and get each classmate’s dial number, then lower the lights and turn a tiny switch, when buzz—there was Louise Alexander in her office at St. Luke’s Hospital, New York. She was very grave and stern but no less attractive than the Louise of ’34. A nurse came quietly in and spoke; Louise nodded, rose, and went calmh toward the operating room to maintain, or to add to her nationwide reputation as an eminent surgeon. A turn of the dial, and the scene was immediately transferred to a large plantation in Georgia. There were negroes in the cotton fields which surrounded the big. well kept colonial home. There, reading quietly, in the shade of an oak tree was Virginia Braswell. Coming up the walk was the Colonel” himself so we left the master and mistress to their conversation and to their peaceful life, which was very suggestive of the tran- quil, pre-war South! Back to New York. There is an office with secretaries and stenographers on all sides, we saw Mary Mellette, successor to (). O. McIntyre, getting all the New York “gossip” with ef- ficiency equal to that she showed in Montreat. If New York means success, then the class of ’34 i quite successful, for here we found two more of our classmates. Who? None other than Ruth Coleman and Inez Galloway in the Presbyterian Hospital where, as one might expect, Ruth is sup- erintendent of Nurses, and Inez serves as dietition. 'Phe next classmate we found in Hollywood. There in the center of the set we saw Grace Wages, who had scored success, and had surpassed Marie Dressier. Still in California we turned to Stanford Inivcrsity. We could sec Cora Belle Orr. who had attained the position of Dean, and Louise Crawford, the Latin professor. Louise was pacing the floor and her “sermon” went something like this: “Cora Belle, you know you’re working too hard ; you just must rest, or you’re going to lose—. Since we knew it would be her “voice” Cora Belle would lose, we hurried on. 'Phis time we turned to Annapolis where we saw Sarah Bur- rows. Now Sarah had married a professor at the Naval Acad- emy only five years ago today, and they seemed to be still honeymooning Turning the dial to another number, we were surprised to find our old pal in Chicago. Surely she couldn’t be a gang- ster! But what’s that? Outside of Chicago’s largest Opera House we read, flashing on and off. the following sign: “Jessie Lee Bcamguard. Famous Dramatic Artist. Makes First Per- sonal Appearance Here Tonight. Even though she is in great demand, she always keeps Thursday evenings free to hear Rudy Yallee’s program. Pile next scene was in Florida where we saw Erin Turner, head of the largest Kindergarten in the South, surrounded by many bright faced children. Ah. another of our classmates, Mildred Chandler, and she seemed to be engrossed in blue prints. We weren’t surprised to find that her Art Gallery had overflowed and these were plans for a larger and more modern one. You know she now devotes all of her time to the collecting of Concert Artist’s por- traits. At that moment Becky turned off the machine saying. Well that’s that! From New York to California, and from Alex- ander to Wages.” Yes, but you skipped Means, Kirby, Greenwood, and Hampton.” “Right you are, but, they don’t seem to be around!” Let me look in the foreign files. Y'es, here is Hampton. Her office is 1275 London Times Building, London, England. O. K., let’s go across the Atlantic. Ah. here we arc at the door. D ok! Miss Bertha Jean Hampton, Editor-in-Chici of the “London Times”! Not bad, so let’s go in. Sh! there she is checking proofs, but she is entirely too busy to be bothered with us, so let’s be traveling. Who’s next? “Georgia Greenwood—Missionary—one hundred and fifty miles south east of Yarkard, China. YVhee. she’s been places, let’s follow. Here we go. Paris, Moscow, Yarkard, and here we arc. Do you see her? No—yes, there, see that group of natives? She is in the center. Don’t they look happy? and Georgia seems to be equal- ly as happy as she is making them.” “She surely docs, but where do we go from here? “To Sunny Italy, and guess who is there? “Nellye Means and—of course, but l« ok, the maid is speak- ing to some visitors, telling them that the couple have gone to Rome for a short visit, to rest. Well, we won’t follow; we know they are happy.” “And from this warm land we go to—. The North Pole, and it’s just time for our weekly report from Addic Mae Kirby’s expedition. Look! we’re ten minutes late: she’s talking now, listen. YVe arc recording climatic conditions here at the pole, and hope in the near future to have some definite comments to make regarding our idea that the land of the world is gradually moving southward. So until next week at this time, good night.” “Good night Kirby. Now where do we go from here? “To WORK!” CLASS PROPHET’S. Miriam Altec and Becky Seafler.

And lingered on the threshhold floor, 'Ere I stepped from the old land. My eyes dwelt lovingly on the sight Of memories and friendship rare. My soul's joys cast a radiant light, And life seemed happy and fair. Yet in the golden past were Hecks of shade. Some were the shadows of grief and tears. Some were the scars of mistakes I had made, And some were the darkness of mists of my fears. I saw behind me my many deeds, The tasks I had started and never done. The garden I had toiled in, plenteous with weeds. The tangled threads of some work just begun. Troubled. I pushed against the door. And prayed as I fitted the key, “Dear Lord, may I profit by the years before, And go forth to the new, trusting Thee.” CLASS HISTORY SENIOR HIGH CLASS OF 1934 In the fall of 1932, about ten eager travelers started on a quest. From many parts of the country they had gathered here at .Montreat to start a pilgrimage up the narrow road of knowledge. Ann Owens, Edna McKinnon and Blanche Hall are the three graduating who began here in their Freshman year, because, as was to be expected, some, for various reasons, dropped by the wayside. With one last struggle, we landed at the foot of the large hill termed Sophomore Year”. Here we were joined by Car- rie May Mitchell, Iris Machcn and Isabel Martinez who had been convinced that our road led to the goal. As we journeyed on. we became more accustomed to the struggle, and our bur- dens were easier to bear. With Mrs. McLean as our sponsor, we found that the road was not all hard and difficult, but here and there, where we least expected it, smooth stretches and good times, such as picnics, hikes and parties, brightened the faces of the weary travellers. Now the third hill, not so steep as the first two, loomed ahead and Bernice Edwards, Ethleen Reimcrs and Eleanor Neel joined us on our quest for knowledge. Directed by our sponsor. Miss Hoyt, the “Jollv Juniors” staged a Merrv Car- nival, the proceeds of which helped us in entertaining the none- too dignified Seniors with a house party at Andelk lodge. Ah! As we gained the summit of the third hill, what is that which we see ahead—none other than that goal, for which we have been struggling these three years—Graduation. For this last lap of our journey, there were thirteen travelers. Virginia McChesnev, Kathlena McFerron. Virginia Yates and Carolyn Allan having joined us this year. We are very fortunate in having as our sponsor. Miss Harriet Stokes. The burdens, again, grew heavy, but there were pleasures generouslv scat- tered for the dignified Seniors. Near the end of the year, we were delightfullv entertained at a Junior-Senior Theater Party at Asheville. Our Senior Play, which had been one of our most troublesome pleasures, turned out even better than we had hoped. Thus, with bur- dens and with pleasures, we came to the top of the peak and our temporary goal is reached. After having thus reached our goal, we first look back at our past four years and decide that the victory has been well worth the trouble and the struggle has not been in vain. Then, with new determination and zeal, we look forward to the journey ahead, each hoping that it, too, may end happily. Eleanor Neel, Carrie Mitchell. LAST W ILL AND TESTAMENT Being of fairly sound minds and bodies, we, the Senior High Class, at the Montreat Normal School, knowing that we are soon to depart from the world of High School Education, do hereby make our last will and testament.

An aye. some people may say. but for me the time has passed very quickly. Ten years ago today, twelve “would-be dignified Senior Highs marched down the aisle of the Anderson Auditorium with eyes fixed on the basket which held those long wished and hoped for diplomas. And then came the time for leaving with all its tears, good- byes. write me's , “come to see mc’s , ami more tears. After this we were scattered in seven states and two foreign coun- tries for a space of ten years. Today came our reunion (O what a glorious one!) at the wedding of our lovable, and vivacious chatter-box. Carrie May Mitchell to “he’s the sweetest thing and oh. 1 love him . Who is he? Well. I hardly think it necessary even to write it down, but 1 don't think anyone who knew her would be in the dark. Carolyn Allan, lovely as always, was maid of honor, the only attendant of the bride. Twelve faces in the ribbons were very familiar to me. Sitting there on the end of the first row was Virginia McChesney. Grease paint and the stage have lured Virginia and she has just returned from a stage tour through Europe. She will next appear on Broadway in a series of Shakesperean plays, a love for the plays ami for Shakespeare having been inspired by our beloved English teacher. Miss Nannie (I. Watkins. The next two who caught my eye were Blanche Hall and Ethleeen Reimcrs cooperative social service workers in Chicago. They have won great fame and are known and admired throughout the United States. Ann Owens, a lover of the sweet and simple life, has chosen the seclusion of a convent and spends days filled with the ex- citement of teaching small children. I would never have known little Edna McKinnon had I seen her in any other place. Ann Owens was sitting behind her and. as 1 was sitting behind both of them, Ann literally hid her from my sight. Of course everyone knows that Edna has become a noted possessor of the M. I), degree. She has just discovered a method of preventing mumps from swelling, which will be a great help to the younger generation, though for me this discovery has come ten years too late. 'Ehe most courteous ami sweetest member of our class. Isabel Martinez, is now raising a fund for the maintenance of blind mice. What possessed her I don’t know, but that’s what she is doing and has been quite successful so far. Eleanor Neel has become a famous scientist and has spent the last few months pouring through a microscope to solve the important question of the day: How many fleas arc required to make one normal, healthy pup? Kathlena McFerron was long ago admitted to the Kentucky bar—vcs. and is the state attorney. As soon as I saw Virginia Vates. I knew that she had been successful in the work that she had undertaken. She is very enthusiastic over the new Yates Mission School in Shanghai. To-morrow we shall separate, each to go to her accustomed place in life, but we have greatly enjoyed our brief reunion and can only hope that some time, not so far away, we shall be able to meet again. STUDENT BODY OFFICERS FOR THE COMING YEAR Student Body elections for 1934 were held in April. We are fortunate in having Betsy Miller, who has been a member of the student body for three years, as our president. Betsy has proved her merit in the past years ami is worthy of this office. Blanche Hall, a member of this year’s Senior High Class, was elected First N ice President. Jane Neel, a member of the pre- sent Junior High Class, was chosen as Second Vice President. Betty Avent, representing the Sophomore and Freshman classes of this year, was elected to the office of Secretary and 'Treasurer.

Page Twelve T HE SUN D I AL Montreat Normal School JUNIOR-SENIOR NORMAL BANQUET They told us that Daisies never tell, but we must bar con- vention for once because we could not pass out of the doors of our Alma Mater without pausing for a moment to tell of the Junior-Senior Normal Banquet. It was late in the afternoon of April 23. when the members of the Senior Normal Class, escorted by their Junior sisters, strolled over to Assembly Inn to see another banquet come and pass into history. The passing of it was most pleasant, however, and an occasion long to be remembered. Soon after all the guests had assembled in the lobby of the Inn. we were invited into the dining hall. The toasts, favors and decorations carried out the theme of the class flower—the daisy, and the class colors—gold and white. The program was as follows: Do Daisies Tell? ...................... Grace Kliedner To Die Petals Martha Carroll Response Jesse Lee Beamguard Sweet Bunch of Daisies Junior Class Miss Hoyt To The Center of Gold Response Miss Watkins To The Leaf Agnes Smith Response Miss Spencer End of a Perfect Year Junior Class Daisies.

Anytime you want to attract a crowd of Montreal girls, all you have to do is put up a sign advertising food for sale. The Senior Normal Class acted on this hunch and served an ap- petizing supper in the Home Economics Department of the School on May 12. The supper was a delicious one: and it was enjoyed by many of the girls here and by many of our Montreat friends. HOME ECONOMIC TEA The Home Economics Department held Open House on Thursday afternoon. May 17. from five to six. The girls from the different classes wore the dresses they had made during the year. Refreshments were served during the hour. JUNIOR-SENIOR On the seventeenth of April the members of the Junior and Senior high school classes were summoned to the front entrance by the arrival of the conveyance which was to carry them to the fair city of Asheville for the big even: of the season: the Junior-Senior entertainment. When the last of the twenty- eight occupants had piled into the voluminous interior of the bus, it started amid the joyful shouts of the occupants. The road to Asheville was paved with song rippling from the throats of some of the melodiously ( ?) inclined Juniors and Seniors. Soon the Imperial Theatre appeared before us, and we entered to enjoy an evening of thrills as we watched Death Takes a Holiday . After the play we made a de- licious and refreshing pause in the drug store before piling into the bus to return to the enfolding arms of our Alma Mater. The Seniors were certainly entertained royally by their Jun- ior sisters, and that evening will always be remembered with the greatest of pleasure. ROSE OF THE SOUTHLAND On Saturday night, April 2S, the curtain rose on the pre- miere performance of Rose of the Southland in the Montreat auditorium chapel. This play, presented by the Senior High School class as a comedy in three acts by Marion Short. Ten promising young actresses made their debut in the cast as follows: Rose Dorinda. a charming young Southern girl. Eleanor Neel: Major Dorinda, a fine type of Southern gentle- man. Iris Machen: Burton (Bud) Dorinda, a lovable young chap. Virginia McChesney; Mammy Evelina, a Southern Mammy . Carrie May Mitchell: Cirant I.ee. a progressive and magnetic young cotton grower, Edna McKinnon: Ruth Beveridge, sophisticated and charming. Ethleen Reimers; Alfred Hickson, a lawyer, fine looking and suave. Blanche Hall: Hallie Burke, a pretty little chatter-box. Ann Owens: Elizabeth Paynter. attractive and indolent. Carolyn Allan; Stephanie De Barrie, a Southern girl of French descent. Kath- lena Me Perron. The character portrayals were exceedingly well done and were given before a large and appreciative audience. ----------6---------- INSTALLATION SERVICE OF THE YOUNG PEOPLE OF THE CHURCH The new year in our Young People’s Organization began on March 25. A beautiful and impressive service was held on that evening, every feature of which emphasized the theme. Light. During the first part of the program the retiring Vice Presi- dent presided. The members of the out-going and in-coming councils, dressed in white robes, marched upon the platform, the former carrying lighted candles, the latter unlighted ones. The devotional service which followed emphasized the idea that we are torch-bearers of Him who said, Y e are the Light of the World.” The new officers lighted their candles from those of their predecessors, each reciting a verse on light. The last feature of the program was the coming forward of the entire audience with lighted candles which they placed up- on the table provided for them. The new officers are: President. Martha Carroll; Vice Pres- ident. Helen Turner: Secretary. Anna Holt; Treasurer. Bettie Kiser. The Highway Chairmen are: Life Enrichment. Myrtle Wallace: Beyond the Seas. Gladys Dodd: Into the Homeland. Evelyn Baker; Enlistment and Training. Maurine Russell; Learning. Jane Neel: Stewardship. Mary Louise Wicker; Com- radeship. Charlotte Browder. Montreat Normal School T H E S I' N I) I A L Patfe Thin t't'H MAY DAY Just at the time of the year when warm weather had drawn the whole school out of doors to exclaim over the ever-surpris- ing miracles of spring, and thrust delighted noses into lilac blos- soms. the annual May Day Festival was celebrated on the lawn. After a musical prelude the court was seen at a distance ap- proaching the throne in stately procession. The two young heralds. Edward Maxwell and Kingsley Elder, were followed by the attendants, attractive young ladies in pastel dresses (Inez Galloway. Gretchen Coche, Ruth Branch. Eleanor Neel. Nancy Fontaine. Betty Gordon Yates. Nell Cooke, and Man Bauman, each representing her class). Next came the stately maid of honor. Ethicen Rcimers, and last of all. the «pieen, Bertha Jean Hampton, who looked very lovely in a graceful white taffeta dress with a long train borne by two very small boys. Sammy Elder and Sammy Wood. After the crown of pink Apple blossoms had been placed up- on the head of the Queen, she graciously ruled while a spring time pageant was given in her honor. The pantomime opened with a wintry scene where Mother Nature -.it asleep by the tree with hei family t sects, grubs, bugs, moles and frogs about her, waiting for the call of Spring. The months appeared in turn followed by a contest of the North, East, South, and West winds. The West wind prevail- ed. and the raindrops fell. The Sun Prince, with his wand of Sun-tipped rays, entered followed In his frolicking Sunbeams, thus awakening Mother Nature who began to arouse her children. The frisky rabbit, the meadow grasses, and Sunbeams ap- peared as the first signs of spring. After refreshing showers and warmth of the Sun. the seeds one In one burst open. The But- terflies flitted about. In the moist of the springtime, the May Pole fete took place. The Dragonflies and Grasshoppers entered. As the summer waned and autumn approached the Field Mouse squeaked about. The flowers dropped ami went to sleep, thus the cycle of the seasons was completed. After the recessional of the Court Parti ice cream, sand- wiches. and coffee were sold on the lawn.
