Fellow classmates, let's all be
present at the Alumnae meeting.
A year ago we left our alma
mater not knowing what was
before us. now we have an op-
rfunity to meet again, tell our
new experiences, and reminisce.
It will put new inspiration
into each one of us to visit again
the walls of our beloved college
and to talk again with friends so
dear to us. As a message from
your president. I sincerely urge
each mmber of the class of '32

There are certain and many j
families who have made appar- j
ent their like for our school. At
a recent mass meeting a show
of hands was asked for indicat-
ing the number of students en-
rolled in school now who have
had sisters to graduate either
from the two year or the four
year courses. Those present
were amazed at the number of
hands raised. Many of the "lit-
tle sisters" responded to the re-
quest that they give us some
news about the older sister who
may be staying at home, teach-
ing or married.
It was found that one girl is
the sixth in her family to attend
E. C. T. C, two have had four
sisters and two others have had
three sisters to attend before
them; and twelve girls are the
third?the family to enroll here.
Many have had one sister to at-
tend before.

that of the sister in school at
the present time. Following is

Greetings?Classmates of '23.
and a most sincere welcome to
our class reunion to be held
during commencement of this
year. What a privilege it is to
go back as honored guests of our
Alma Mater, to greet again the
members of the faculty who
were so dear to us then, and who
have proven such an inspiration
to us since leaving college. They
are always glad to have us back.
What a privilege to return as
happy, care-free school girls
again. To tread again the path-
ways of our beloved campus, to
recall fond memories of college
days, to relate experiences dur-
ing the past ten long, or short
years, since our separation as a
class.
Would you miss it? Of course
not. Then make your plans now
to be present at least for Alum-
nae Day. Do your best to get
every other member of the class
that you know to attend this re-
union.
Hazel Kennedy Corey, who re-
sides in Greenville is planning
something interesting for us in
the way of entertainment. If you
have any suggestions about our
program, we would appreciate
your writing to us. It is still
your class. We want each of
you to have a part in it. We
must have the biggest and best
reunion ever held at dear old E.

tution the world has ever seen,

Music has played a vital part
in the life of E. C. T. C. from the
very first day. but until stock is
taken and statistics collected, no
one realizes just how important
it has been. The piano depart-
ment iias recently been collect
ing some facts and figures, some
of which go back to the begin-
ning and some back to 1917,
(when Miss Mead began her work
here and at the same time keep-
ing notes.
Since 1917, between 600 and
700 students have had individual
work in piano, besides the class-
work. These students have tak-
en from one to four years. Over
60,000 individual lessons have
been given. There have been
52 public recitals and 250 prac-
tice recitals, all given by the
students.
Besides the college activities
the music department has parti-
cipated in the following com-
munity affairs: eight or ten
clubs, six churches. It has also
played in Farmville, Bell Arthur,
Ayden. Rocky Mount, Tarboro,
Chapel Hill, and Falkland, and
furnished music at weddings, fun-
erals, and receptions; also organ
music at the theatre, and at
j church. The church organists
I have been Misses Lida Hill,
! Mary Bertolet, and Genie Thom-
! as.
Since the opening of the col-
I lege in 1909 there have been
j eleven piano teachers and three
i public school music teachers. The
I first pir.ru. teacner was M'c-
Bishop, who was followed by
Annie Lee Davis, now Mrs. Will
Hooker, of Greenville. The third
year came Lida Hill, who mar-
ried Mr. L. R. Meadows in 1919,
land died in 1925. Next were
j Hanna Fahnestock, who is at
home at River Road, Harrisburg,
Pa and Lula Sherman, who
married a Presbyterian minister
and is living in the Middle West.
Miss Dora E. Meade, who is still
here came in the fall of 1919.
and Lois V. Gorrell also here, in
1920. There was Yvonne Beser,
who is now teaching in Teachers
College, West Chester, Pa. Miss
Melntyre also substituted one
year.
Lula Bartholomew, who has
been teaching public school mu-
sic in Rochester, N. Y and
Louise Burton, of Nashville, N.

THE EAST CAROLINA TEACHERS COLLEGE FAMILY
DEAN OF WOMEN
EXTENDS WELCOME
The only all E. C. T. C. family on record, the Bridgers family
of Greenville. Samuel Bridgers was a co-ed in 1913. His wife, as
Essie Whichard, entered school on the clay it was opened, October
5, 1909. and was one of the first girls from Greenville to register.
They were married September 8, 1919.
The two children have never been to school anywhere but in
the Training School. John David graduated this year from the 7th
grade with rank of second in his class; Elizabeth Sutton was re-
cently promoted to the Fourth Grade.
Mr. Bridgers is' connected with the Greenville Reflector. The
father of Mrs. Bridgers was the founder, chief owner, and editor of
this paper for many years and it is still in the hands of the Which-
ard family.

ned in honor of the alumnae who
are teaching in Warsaw on Fri-
day night, April 21.
GOLDSBORO CHAPTER

The E. C. T. C. Alumnae of
Goldsboro and Wayne County
organized a chapter in February,
with about a dozen members.
Lillie Mae Dawson, (Mrs. John
Thompson) called the first meet-
ing at her home and she- was
elected president. There have
been two very enjoyable meet-
ings, each followed by a social
period over the tea cups. There
has been one benefit budge par-
ty, the proceeds of which are go-
ing to the Alumnae Scholarship
Fund.
Dear Alumnae:
Commencement will soon be
here, and again it is my privi-
lege to remind you that we are
hoping to have you with us. As
usual the ten year class, and the
last graduating class will be our
honor guests, so?classes of 1923
and 1932, this is a very special
invitation to you.

venience.
Ever cordially yours,
Annie L. Morton.
PRESIDENT WRIGHT'S
MESSAGE TO THE
ALUMNAE
I am looking forward to
Saturday, June 3, when you
will be with us again. To
me, this is one of the big days
in our college year. It is a
real joy to all of us to have
you back on the campus. This
year we have worked out an
unusual commencement pro-
gram. The minister. Dr.
Charles F. Myers, of Greens-
boro, is one of the strong
preachers in our state; and
Will Durant will deliver the
commencement address. He
has a national reputation. I
am sure if you can arrange to
stay over you will never re-
gret spending Sunday and
Monday with us. This college
needs your presence at com-
mencement and it needs your
help during this trying period.
It is a great consolation to us
to know that we have your
support.
Education in America is suf-
fering more during this period
than in any other of forty na-
tions recently surveyed. We
most not let this period of
financial slump write the
blight into the lives of the in-
nocent children of today.
Come back to us; we want
to see you.
W. A A. TO HAVE
FIELD DAY 26-27
Field Day activities will take
place on the afternoon of May
26 and 27, when the annual ten-
nis tournament will be held. At
one time it was hoped that a
whole day could be given to the
events but application was not
filed early enough to make ad-
justments in the calendar. Iris
Flythe, president of the organi-
zation reports that application
far a day next spring will be
filed in the near future, so that
the men and women's Athletic
Association may !ioia a field day.
The tennis tournament is al-
ways one of the highspots of the
athletic year. Florence Sinclair,
who at present holds the singles
title and Mae Hearne, who holds
the double title with "Flossy"
will probably defend their titles
in a heated contest.
Recently the Association mem-
bers elected the following offi-
cers: Wall Higden, president;
Florence Sinclair, vice-president;
Leola Pleasant, secretary; Mabel
Dickens, business manager. Eli-
zabeth Keith has been appoint-
ed Teco Echo reporter.
HONOR CLASS TEN YEARS
AGO FIRST STUDENTS TO
PUBLISH ANNUAL
The class of 1923, which has
the privilege of being one of the
two honor classes that are spe-
cial guests of the College this
commencement, has peculiar in-
terest to the students now in
college because they started the
Tecoan.
The annual is one of the most
dearly beloved onstitutions on the
campus and that first annual is
one of the most interesting his-
torical relics to those who have
a part in making the annual now.
That volume looks thin by those
of the last few years, but as one
turns the leaves she sees the
life of the class and of the col-
lege pass before her.
They will return this year for
their reunion, many of them
with names changed, and will
have a good time recalling the
days when they were campus
leaders.
NOTICE TO THE HONOR
CLASSES!

No Confederate Veterans
Present
Held in Austin Building
The Confederate Memorial
Day for Pitt County was ob-
i rved Wednesday morning,
M ly the tenth. The exrcises
I ich began at ten twenty
lock were held in the audito-
rium of the Austin Building and
were sponsored by the George B.
Singletary chapter of the Daugh-
ters of the Confederacy. J. H.
Rose, Superintendent of Green-
ville City schools, was master of
ceremonies; he opened the pro-
gram with prayer. Mrs. Ruth
Fenberg sang the verses of "Car-
ry Me Back to Old Virginny
and everyone joined in the re-
frain. A quartet from the col-
lege Glee Club composed of
Beth Brantley, Mary Belle Wil-
son, Margaret Strickland, and
Emma Lee Davis, sang "O" Black
Joe and
The address was given by L.
W. Gaylord, a prominent law-
yer. He paid highest esteem and
tribute to the memory of the he-
roes of the South and their
ideals. He concluded his ad-
dress with a plea to the present
and future generation to lose no
opportunity to exert every effort
and influence for the preserva-
tion of our nation; to aid in seek-
ing that day when mortal con-
flict between the nations of the
world will cease to be a reality.
The Memorial Day exercises
are usually held in the High
School auditorium. However,
this was examination week on
the city schools, and it was im-
possible to have the exercises
conducted in the High School
auditorium. A large number of
college students attended the ex-
ercises.
Rev. W. S. Harden, pastor of
the Presbyterian Qhurch offered
the closing prayer.
The celebration was a sad one
because of the absence of veter-
ans in whose honor it was held.
This is the first year in which
there has been not one veteran
present. It is believed that the
last member of th local camp
has passd o nto join his fellows.
Immediately after the exer-
cises, a pilgrimage was made to
Cherry Hill Cemetery where the
graves of the Confederate vet-
erans were decorated. Musical
numbers were given there by
members of the High School
Glee Club.
Vice-President Alumnae
Asso. Sends Greetings
The honor classes, '23 and '32
will find a hearty welcome when
they arrive for commencement
this year. These ten-year and
one-year classes will be the
guests of the college. They may
secure guest meal-tickets on
their arrival, in Miss Morton's
office.
England is essentially ahead or
essentially behind America? I
never can make up my mind
which.?Mrs. Henry T Fleitman.
Charm is the chloroform which
makes every operation in life
painless.?Eve Le Verka.
Dear Alumnae:
It seems that along with other
modern inventions, "Old Man
Time" has speeded up his mode
of travel. We suddenly become
conscious of the eve of another
commencement dawning upon
us.
My first impulse is to urge you
to put aside your cares and wor-
ries that have accompanied the
past year, and come back for
commencement. If you cannot
stay through for the whole of
commencement, come back for
Alumnae Day! We want to
hear what you have been doing,
and in turn tell you what we
have accomplished.
President Wright and his loyal
cooperative faculty have been
making a fight during this year
of depression and cuts in college
appropriations. They need our
support as never before. We as
graduates of the college can help
share in the responsibilities.
At our annual Alumnae meet-
ing in 1930, there was a move-
ment started to raise $5,000 to be
given to the college in the form
of a scholarship. This gift was
to be presented in four years
which would be the twenty-fifth
anniversary of our Alma Mater.
Those of us present, were urged
to go back to our various com-
munities, orgaidze chapters?

TO OUR COLLEGE FOR
SERVICES RENDERED
In every life there are factors, whether
of institutions or personalities, that shape
and mold, enrich and broaden. The asso-
ciation with an influential character may
start us on the pathway where success may
be met. A chance word may set ideas in
motion which for years have been lying dor-
mant. The mental touch of a cultured per-
sonality may give us that thing which we
needed to become somebody of worth and
importance. Many times we are totally un-
aware when these touches were felt or
where these words were spoken. For these
services rendered we thank the unseen pow-
ers which made our pathways meet for
even so brief a time.
Fortunately, some of us can trace
clearly and pleasantly the time and place
Seminary "ol Richmond. v ' ?? . ?
when life became a thing of importance be-
cause of the meeting of new ideas.
To our college many of us can render
thanks for services rendered?services that
developed in us such valuable possessions as
a humanitarian outlook on life, a love for
beauty in literature and in reality, a just
estimate of the value of pure friendship,
and an unselfish desire to be of service in
our little world.
It is well for us to pause briefly and at
occasional intervals to see what East Caro-
lina Teachers College has meant to us. Our
heads bow when we think of the manifold
blessings of friendship that have come to
us through our college. There have been
teachers who gave to us the benefits of well
spent lives and who imparted to us the
greatest thing that any teacher can give?
Inspiration. From the doors of our college
we have gone with the feeling, not that we ALUMNAE HAVE
had finished a piece of work, but that we
had begun a task for which we had been
given every practical help. Life has brought
no pleasantcr memories than those of hours
spent with instructors who secretly smiled
at, yet openly encouraged our amateurish
attempts to "remake the world
The years can give us no greater satis-
faction than the joy derived from student
friendships made in college. Even yet the
recollection of "after light" sessions brings
reminiscent smiles to our faces. The ex-
change of ideas received from strong per-
sonalities has in later years helped us to
meet perplexing problems fearlessly and
unafraid.
For ideals that have enabled us to at-
tempt to find beauty in every commonplace
activity and to render service where no
praise will ever be known, we thank our
college.
Our information derived from books we
count in no sense a minor item, but we con-
sider that as a service which might have
been received by self-willed beings in pri-
vate study. Out of this giving of know-
ledge, which is the primary material func-
tion of any college, there grew the price-
less benefits of student-instructor contacts,
and lessons in independent thought.
We may not grow to be intellectual
giants or powers behind thrones, but we
shall always feel keenly and gratefully
that any good growing out of us and ema-
nating from our being has been in part the
wholesome influence of East Carolina
Teachers College upon our lives.
Passing through your portals, each one
says the same,
"East Carolina Teachers College, there's
glory in thy name
?Bessie Willis.

sue is due Miss Elizabeth Relf Hobbs, Alum-
nae Reporter, Miss Bessie Willis, class of
"28, and Miss Maggie McPherson, class of
"32. These have spent much time in collect-
ing and editing the material. Misses Gra-
ham and Jenkins have done much toward
formulating plans and checking details and
Miss Lois Gorrell and Dora Mead have con-
tributed interesting data from the Music
Department of the College.
This issue of the college bi-weekly gives
to the officers of administration an oppor-

incentive to renew old acquaintances and to

MESSAGES COME
FROM '32 CLASSES
(continued from first page)
Dear Alumnae:
Dear Classmates,
A year has passed since we
last inarched down the aisle to-
gether as happy graduates. Dur-
ing this year many of us have
struggled hard to meet the de-
pression face to lace or to carry
the burdens of school marms
upon our young and inexperien-
ced shoulders. As a member of
the Class of '32 I am looking for-
ward to seeing many of you
classmates when we meet at our
Alma Mater to celebrate the an-
nual commencement exercises.
We all" realize that the college
w ines us and the alumnae as-
so Lion, of which we are now
a p. is preparing for us. So
let i i tne I ack in large num-
ber, and have a happy reunion.

The Senior-Normal class, with
Maggie Dixon as its president
leached heights of glory in 1923.
Little Barbara Beck with Tyler,
granddaughter of the Lady Prin-
cipal, was the class mascot. The
officers were:
Maggie Dixon. president.
Lillian Jordan, vice-president.
Mildred Lynn, Secretary.
Irma Harrison, Treasurer.
Annie Lola Arnold, S. G. Rep-
resentative.
Gayle Cheek, Critic.
High lights of the class of '23
were Vera Miller, who was the
president of the Athletic Asso-
ciation; Mabel Thomas, who was
Student Government President;
Lois Haskins. who was the Te-
coan Editor; and Ruth Barber,
Y. W. C. A. president.
There were two literary socic-
ies at the time. Pearl Wright
was the Poe president and Alice
Pope, the Lanier President. The
Teco Echo and Emerson Society
had not then come into being.
They also had statistics back
in 1923. A glance at the Tecoan
of that year the first ever pub-
lished snows this liit.

Pattie Smith?Neatest.
Mary L. Outerbridge?Pret-

Clara Dowdy?Most reliable.
Hilda DukeMost musical.
Clara Grissom?Chief marshal

These girls who are coming
back this commencement will
find a genuine pleasure in re-
membering old names and at-
taching new ones. They will
realize the joy of renewing old
friendships and perhaps getting
acquainted with husbands and
children. East Carolina Teach-
ers College welcomes whole-
heartedly the class of 1923, as
its special guest for 1933.

Rev. R. F. Huske gave the in-

Preliminary to the second part
of the program, the exercises of
Mrs. Beckwith. Mrs. Thompson
paid very high tributes to her
and introduced her to the au-
dience, to mosl of whom, except
the college students, she did not
need introduction.
MRS. THOMPSON'S TALK
Mrs. Lillie Mae Dawson
Thompson, in introducing Mrs.
Beckwith, had this to say:
Just as large streams from lit-
tle brooklets flow,
So do huge trees from little
acorns grow.
We have here today an exam-
ple of the beginning of a growth
which will, in future years,
bring happiness and pleasure to
untold numbers of people. The
planting of this tree, small and
frail, is sympolic of the life of
the woman in whose honor it is
planted. Her life has been one
that has shed its influence over
a large territory and has reached
into hundreds of homes in North
Carolina, where it has served to
strengthen the fibre of the occu-
pants and bring nearer the ideal
of a perfect home.
The woman whose works we
honor today has had a beneficial
and wholesome influence upon
all of the girls who were fortun-
ate enough to come in contact
with her during the many years j
she served as dean of this insti-1
tution. This influence cannot
be measured. It is like the little j
brooklet flowing from the spring
in the mountainside. It flows'
on, gathering force and size as
it goes, touching and refreshing
the lives of those who conic in
contact with it.
For many years Mrs. Beck-
with associated with, worked
with, instructed, influenced and
directed the lives of the young
women who came to this institu-
tion. To her many of those who
entered these walls and have
gone out and developed into in-
fluential women, or into the
makers of plain simple homes,
owe the stamina and fibre with
which they have been able to
accomplish the tasks that have
come to their hands. Her life
has been the inspiration and the
influence that have clung to
them in distress and accompa-
nied them in success. To her hon-
or is now given, only as a mere
symbol and slight token of the
high esteem and honor due her.
Her influence will continue to
live, even after this tree has
grown, thrived and died away,
and in an unending stream will
continue to warm and strengthen
lives of men as well as women
to a depth we cannot fathom and
to a time we cannot encompass.
TREE PLANTING EXERCISE
The audience gathered around
the tree, in a plot south of Cot-
ten Hall. Here Mr. Meadows
was introduced.
Dr. Leon R. Meadows at the
tree-planting exercises in honor
of Mrs. Beckwith, pointed out
the qualities that make her life
on the campus outstanding. Five
characteristics of the first lady
principal which Dr. Meadows
based his talk on were: Indus-
try, culture, love of the beauti-
ful, sympathy, and loyalty.
He expressed the hope that as
the tree grows in strength and
beauty, it may be a constant re-
minder to the ones who are
here now an dto those who come
after us, of the strength and no-
bility of character of one who
in the early years of the college
did so much toward helping to
shape the destiny of this institu-
tion
A representative from each of
the classes here under the re-
gime of Mrs. Beckwith assisted
in planting the tree. These were
Miss Margaret Blow, Mrs L. W.
Gaylord, Mrs. W. L. Nobles, Miss
Mamie Ruth Tunstall, Mrs. E. E.
Rawl, Miss Grace Smith, Mrs.
E. W. Hellen, Mrs. K. B. Pace,
Mrs. D. J. Whichard, Jr Mrs.
J. Lindsay Savage, Mrs. S. H.
Edwards, Mrs. W. B. Herring,
Mrs. George Gardner, Mrs. C.
M. Warren, Mrs. A. B. Corey
and Mr. J. F. Lynch, Erwin, N.
C.
Splendid tributes were paid to
her by the three chosen by their
fellow alumnae to represent
them.
Mrs. Bettie Spencer Thomas
of Farmville summed up the
qualities which made the stud-
ents look up to and admire Mrs
Beckwith.
MRS. THOMAS'S TALK
As we stand here today sur-
rounded by evidences of the
great changes which have taken
place on the campus of our Al-
ma Mater, we are reminded that
time moves swiftly on. New
buildings have been erected, and
the faculty and student body
have grown m numbers. But let
us not forget that the fine spirit
winch prevails on this campus
has been built largely by the
vision and untiring efforts of
those who labored here during
the formative years of the col-
lege. It is our privilege today
to honor one who took a most
prominent part during this per-
iod?Mrs. Kate K. Beckwith.
To know Mrs. Beckwith was
to love her. Those of us who
were fortunate enough to come
under her motherly care know
what an abiding interest she had
in each of her daughters, as she
so affectionately called us. It is
not too much to say that our
parents could not have been
more interested in our welfare
and culture than was she. Mrs.
Beckwith was a friend to whom
we felt free to go for advice at
all times.
If those of us who have attend-
ed East Carolina Teachers Col-
lege during these early years
have made a success in life as
teachers, business women or
homemakers, no small part of
it is due to he rinfluence and
care.
Not only was she interested in
the college and students but she
was deeply interested in the
community. Every movement
for the betterment of the town
received her active support. She
was a citizen of her community
in the truest sense of the word.
Mrs. Beckwith was also vitally
interested in the appearance of
the campus. She was untiring
in her efforts to improve it
wherever possible. Many of us
remember the Sunshine Club
and the flower garden in the
court of the West Dormitory now
konwn as Wilson Hall, and it
is most fitting that we should
today dedicate a tree to her
name.
Mrs. Beckwith, we are happy
to have you, with us on Found-
er's Day?although you have not
been connected with the college
for the past few years we know
that you are still interested in
the work that is being done
here. We would like for you to
know that your ideals are not
forgotten and that your influ-
ence still pervades this institu-
tion, and that no matter how
long a period of time passes by,
our affection for you will al-
ways go down through the
years without change. The re-
membrance of you is always
sweet and our respect for your
splendid character is only heigh-
tened by the passing of time.
MRS. STANCILL'S SPEECH
Mrs. Luella Lancaster Stancill
of Falkland, very cleverly re-
produced some scenes from col-
lege life which brought out the
finest qualities of Mrs. Beck-
with. Her speech in part fol-
lows:
I am honored in that I have
been asked to give an apprecia-
tion of one so much loved, and
so worthy of words of apprecia-
tion, as our own Kate R. Beck-
with. I know of no better way
to express the appreciation I
feel than to sketch for you some
scenes from her busy life dur-
ing the sixteen years she served
this college as Lady Principal.
1. A group is preparing to
give a play,?a Senior play in
fact. It is a Greek play and the
costumes are difficult. It will
be impossible to rent costumes
if they are to realize any profit
to add to their Loan Fund. In
their dilemma, who comes to
their aid but their friend in need,
Mrs. Kate R. Beckwith, who for
days designs and executes won-
derful costumes from the gor-
geous robes of th mighty Zeus
to the dainty flowing draperies
of the Graces. All of her deep
knowledge of history, all of her
wonderful feeling and eye for
beauty, all of her power and
will to carry out her plans, she
pours forth until she sees noth-
ing further that can be done.
Page Three
And she is as pleased as that
Senior Class when everyone ex-
presses admiration for the splen-
did beauty and fitness of the
costuming.
2. A girl is faced with a task
which seems too great for her
to ever attempt. She goes for
help to her advisor, none other
than her Lady Principal. She
comes away from the conference
filled with new zeal and enthu-
siasm, feeling equal to the task
and ready to tackle it.
3. There is an open court be
tween two buildings, bare and
unattractive. Under her leader-
ship it blossoms forth into love-
liness, "the sunshine garden" it
is called. From this garden, sun-
shine in the form of fragrant
flowers is shed abroad to many.
It is not unusual for her to spend
hours at work in this garden.
4. It is Sunday night. Home-
sick girls are inclined to mope
up so something must be started.
Groups gather around the piano
for singing, this is followed by
solos, after which someone reads
or tells a story. The Lady Prin-
cipal's presence in no way casts
a damper over the enjoyment of
the group. She becomes just
another girl who seems also to
receive help from the friendly
contact.
5. It became necessary to chas-
tise one of her daughters. And
any daughter who ever faced
this necessity can but remember
the gentle rebukes that hammer-
ed the harder because they were
so gentle.
When one is asked to give an
appreciation of a life, it is un-
derstood that the person asked
has a deep feeling of apprecia-
tion. In this case, surely it is
true. I feel that, in knowing
Kate R. Beckwith, the lives of
all who have come under her
guidance have been wonderfully
enriched, broadened, and sweet-
ened.
Mrs. Beckwith very graciously
acknowledged the honor bestow-
ed upon her, reminding the pre-
siding officer that she was in-
deed too full for utterance.
She expressed joy over the
progress of the college, gladness
over the presence of so many of
her "daughters and happiness
over being able to be here. She
very cleverly referred to a com-
ment on a past speech of hers
when it was said the best speech
she ever made was the shortest
but said that she would "better
her best" today.
Miss Margaret Griffin, chief
marshall, gave directions to the
spot where the second part of
the exercises would take place.
MRS. JOHNSON SPEAKS
Mrs. Charles M. Johnson, of
Raleigh, whose husband is State
Treasurer, recalled many pleas-
ant incidents in her association
with Mrs. Beckwith; an extract
of her speech follows:
In every institution there are
a few men and women, who be-
cause of some outstanding attri-
bute have won the respect and
love of their associates. It is
these men and women who raise
the averages of humanity and by
their words and deeds brighten
the world about them.
Tributes to women have sel-
dom been entrusted to other wo-
men. It seems to have been or-
dained from the beginning of
the world that whatever is
thought of women must be ex-
pressed by men.
If women have been high-rat-
ed by men, they have been simi-
larly low-rated by their sisters.
I daresay that orators who have
not come under the dominion of
teachers know them even better
than the students who receive
the tutelage. It is the misfor-
tune of all public servants to be

disproportioned by flattery or to
be deformed by calumny. The
middle view is impossible to
student or to fulsome flatterer.
But the years are seldom un-
just, and in our youth we re-
lished not these daily homelies
from the schoolroom; if in the
hardness of our hearts we failed
to appreciate the constant bom-
bardment from the heights of
academic perfection, you may be
sure that in our age we do.
We have often heard people,
when struck by some object or
scene of exquisite beauty, ex-
claim: "If I were an artist, I
would paint that picture When
asked to come here for this oc-
casion which, I'm sure, will live
long in my memory, I thought
how much I should like to paint
in words, a vivid picture of our
beloved lady principal. Since I
am not an artist of this sort. I
can only tell you in my own
simple way some of the things
I feel, and I am sure that 1 will
voice the opinion of all those
who were here at the time that
Mrs. Beckwith so faithfully and
loyally served our Alma Mater.
Being stern, with an unmistak-
able gentleness, being possessed
with a quiet understanding, and
having the gift of making others
realize instantly right from
wrong, endeared her to us all.
She won her way into the
hearts of all who knew her, and
lent an atmosphere to the school
which was keenly felt by stu-
dents and members of the fa-
culty alike.
She was a true friend, one al-
ways to be counted on in time
of need. Her very presence was
enough to add stability to any
gathering.
It is indeed a pleasure for me
to be present to show my ap-
preciation of one who spent so
many useful years here for the
betterment of this college.
Her influence will, long be
felt among those of us so for-
tunate as to have been here dur-
ing her regime. It is often said
that environment plays a vital
part in character building, and I
think Mrs. Beckwith was a
staunch believer in this, for at
all times she created just such
an environment in the school as
one would expect to find under
such splendid leadership.
It would be pleasant to review
the evidences of her love for, and
interest in, us which won for her
the warm place which she will
ever hold in our hearts. Our
lives are richer and fuller be-
cause of her influence.

BASEBALL SEASON
REVIEWED
The Baseball season will end
this week with a two game se-
ries with High Point College.
The team while not quite as suc-
cessful as was at first expected
has acquitted itself very well,
winning one and losing one to
P. J. C. Campbell. A. C. C. and
High Point Colleges. It is hoped
that most of the team will be
back for play next year so as to
have neucleus to build the team
from.
All of the teams have been
coached by Kenneth C. Beatty
who has served with no finan-
cial remuneration whatsoever,
without the assistance of coach
Beattv it is doubtful whether the
tici : men and lack oi a
d although the team
.? I hard and faithfully it
manage to win. It is
hoped, however, that if the en-
n llment of men students in-
cerases as is expected, we will
be able to put out a winning
team next year.
The basketball team playing
a total of 18 games mostly with
Jr. colleges and Frosh teams
from the big five won the majo-
rity of its contest. Only two
men will be lost from the squad
by graduation so it is expected
that E. C. T. C. wil lagain have
a victorious team next year.

To bring about a closer rela-
tionship between the Alumnae
and the college has been the pur-
pose of the Greenville chapter
this past year. This has been
promoted through several pro-
grams.
The largest program which
was sponsored wras the Found-
er's Day program, war,
held at the college on March 4.
1933. The program committee,
composed of Elizabeth Relfe
Hobbs '31, chairman, Mrs. Lou-
ella Stancil '13, Mrs. C. M. War-
ren "12, Mrs. A. B. Corey '23,
Miss Maria D. Graham, member
of the faculty and Miss Elizabeth
C. Smith '28 ex-officio member,
worked up a most interesting
program.
The chapter financed this pro-
gram by giving a bridge tourna-
ment in the Y. W. C. A. Hut.
The members who did not play
contributed liberally.
Other funds were raised by
selling pottery, brass and books
of poems in the Alumnae Gift
Shop which is located in the
Campus building.
The officers of the chapter this
year are Elizabeth C. Smith,
President; Mrs. C. W. Edwards,
Vice-President; Mrs. E. E. Rawls
Secretary and Reporter; Dixie
Taylor, Treasurer. Meetings are
held monthly at the homes of the
different members.

There have been three "high
spots" in the year and plans for
these were made at the first
meeting in October. Throughout
the year emphasis was put on
the membership drive. The
president, who has been one of
the most enthusiastic workers
for the Alumnae Association ever
since she has been connected
with it, was the hostess at that
meeting.
The amount of news items
they have collected about the
old girls as shown below speaks
for itself as to the success of the
contacts made through the year
in the membership drive.
Josie Early (Mrs. Ben Wil-
liams) has returned to Rocky
Mount to make her home, after
living a year in Portsmouth, Va.
She has one child.
Nannie B. Harrell (Mrs. W. J.
Helms) lives in Rocky Mount
and for a number of years has
taught in Edgemont Grammar
School. She has probably done
more than any other member to
keep the chapter an active one.
Wita Bond, formerly of Wind-
sor, has made her home in Rocky-
Mount and for the past four
years been a mathematics teach-
er in the R. M. High School. She
is planning to complete her mas-
ters degree in Mathematics this
summer at Duke.

time to be an active member in
the local chapter.
Elizabeth Stewart Bennett,
formerly of Rocky Mount but
now living in Burlington, is
teaching in the Public School
