Foundation School
IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE

At the Friday boys conference last
week, the boys organized an Improve
ment League, with a view OF making
it easier for boys Of the Foundation
to do right and harder to do wrong.
The meeting was held in the Parish
House. Sol Frazier led the boys in
carrying out their plans. The Dean
and teachers present, Durham and
Lockin, were asked to retire from the
room, after which Mr.. Frazier ex-
planned the meaning and purpose Of
the league and read the constitution
and bylaws. These were discussed
enthusiastically by number Of boys.
Many others wanted 10 speak, but
were not allowed to do so on account
Of lack of time. The boys entered
heartily upon the plan, and a fine
spirit Of cooperation promises to do
much. to help the Foundation School.
One hundred and twenty boys signed
the constitution at that meeting.
Others have signed since.
At a later meeting, Sunday eve
ming, the organization was completed.
The following named officers were
chosen: Tarvin Saylor, president;
Pat McCray, vice-president; Robert
Davis, secretary; Thomas Truitt, SER
geant alarms.
Mr.. Frazier deserves great credit
for the wonderful work he is doing
among Foundation boys. He is a
born leader, and knows the heart of
boy as few people do. Having been
three years student in the Founda-
ton School and two years monitor
of dormitory, he is at home among
the boys. His army experience also
serves him well here in sympathizinp
and carrying forward his work In
charge Of Cumberland Hall.

handled a javelin before In his life,
sent the shaft far enough to win
third place against eight Of nine OPP
ponents.
or the runners, Daily and Dudley
Roberts and Chester Morris deserve
personal mention. In the mile run,
especially. Daily exhibited such skill
and speed as to bring the spectators
to their feet, and in the 4i0-yard
dash Dudley Roberts, who maintained
good lead to the very end when
his strength failed partly because Of
sick stomach, compelled the on
lockers to cheer heart and soul for
him.
Those who have not seen Chester
Morris in the two-mile race are yet
to experience a thrill that will lift
them bodily from their seats. Run
ming along smoothly over the course
behind a Centre man who, obviously.
expected TO wear Morris out by his
fast pace, he continued without
WEAKNESS until after making the final
lap. Then, as If a new man came
suddenly into Morris's skin, he be-
gan his thrilling sprint and passed
the Centre man so swiftly that in a
few strides the latter was but speck
on the horizon line of the home
stretch. Morris broke his own rec
ord and the Berea record in IL min
utes and seconds.
In conclusion Moran and Morgan
should be mentioned for their excel
lent running high jumps. Moran
tied for first place against Centre,
and then by little misfortune lost
in the second trials. His improve
ment, however, in the past week has
been remarkable, and he gives prom
Use of even greater improvement.
Morris was unfortunate in that
bad knee which he sustained on Field
Day prevented him from making his
best showing.

the pages. John C.. Campbell knew
more about the Southern Highlands,
and knew it better, than any other
human being. This vast acquaint-
ance had been gained during 25 years
Of travel and other contact with the
Highland people. He speaks with
an authority which no one else can
even begin to assume.
The book is a work Of love. The
author loved the people Of the High
lands and always had respect for
their feelings and their abilities.
His deep appreciation Of the true
worth of the Highlander always led
him to emphasize the nobler traits
and the better things. He was,
therefore, peculiarly adapted to
comprehend the larger phases of
Highland life and to set down for all
his readers the things which one must
know il he ever knows the people of
this great region.
II should not be left unsaid that
much of the responsibility of writ
ing the book, and practically the
whole responsibility Of preparing the
manuscript for the printer, was borne

THE SOUTHERN HIGHLANDER

From an illuminating book re-
ceived by Professor Smith, we quote
in part:
This book, recently from the press
Of the Russell Sage Foundation, is
the first authoritative and comprehen-
s've statement Of the real life Of the
people of the Southern Highlands
that has ever been made. Others have
written and spoken in part, but in
this book much of the whole truth
may be found. Others have written
from little knowledge and from
short excursions, but the writer of
this book knew the whole field.

sonally will be surprised at the vast

CFNTRE.BEREA TRACK MEET

The dual track meet held on Berea
Athletic Field last Monday was an
unqualified success. despite the rather
chilly weather which prevailed. The
need for dressing room for the
athletes on such occasions has been
long felt, but never more so than
last Monday. The lack Of such a
room is source of embarrassment
to the local men, and certainly an
inconvenience to all participants Tn
the meet.
The Centre team was in fine form
and sustained the reputation which
Centre has established for athletic
ability in all events. While they won
the larger number Of points in the

furnished lively competition.
A year ago Centre College walked
off with practically all the honors
but in spite Of the limited amount Of
training which the Berea boys have
received thus far, they took frs
place in four events, namely, in thu
one mile relay twcn by forfeit), tn

in six events: in one mile. 880-yar'

and running high jump.

GIvERs TO BEREA
Or. Pearsons' Birthday Occasion for
Remembering All the Good People
Who Have Made Gifts TO
Berea

April 1ith Is a great day in Berea.
The procession seems better every
year. Some thoughts from the adj
dress by DR.. VIM. G. Frost will be
cherished by all our readers.
"Three elements are necessary for
school like Berea: Founders and
teachers to set the aims. students to
carry out those aims in the far scat
tered mountain communities. and do
nors to give shelter and support.
"Berea's donors have been gathered
in successive regiments. First came
the hundreds who helped Fee and
Rogers in the early days largely be-
cause Of their desire to advance the
cause of anti-slavery. Their monu-
ment is our oldest building, Howard
Hall. Then came the donors Of re-
construction times when President
Henry Fairchild was building Ladies
Hall. the second Chapel, and Lincoln
Hall.
"Recent donors have come in three
periods: From 1892 20 1904 they
gave to help the Freedmen and the
mountain people alike, raising the
two Pearsons Endowments, and build
inc and buying land. besides contrib
uting from $4,000 TO $4,000 a year
for current expenses.
"Then came the Dav law. making 1t
necessary to establish separate
school for colored students. Lincoln
Institute was established, with twice
as much property as Berea had in
1892, but It took seven years to do
II.
"Then came Berea's latest period,
devoted wholly to the mountain
work. This rallied donors to the
pearsons-Kennedy Endowment, and
for the land and buildings necessary
for our ten campuses, one for the
men and one for the women Of each
department.
"whv did these people, sometimes
more than 1,4o0 in a year. give all
this money?
sTt was not to benefit the faculty
and workers at Berea.
at was not even to benefit the
students Of Berea.
at was to benefit the mountain re-
pion. the remote communities OF 'Ap-
palachian America thru the good
which our students will do when they
90 back TO their home folks.
"Manv young people will leave the
mountains. as they leave the noun
tains of Scotland and Switzerland.
But thew cannot start out with pros
meet of success for themselves, or
Of doing good where they go. until
the mountains are made a better
place to be born in. The first thing
which we have promised these donors
Is that we will send back into the
mountains an army of community
builders-those who will improve the
roads. the schools, the agriculture,
the housekeeping, and the Sunday
schools Of these millions Of noun
tain people.
"Such gifts as theirs bind us all
to do our best."'
