It was in a little village between two small towns in Virginia. The old weather-beaten house reminded me of <a title=\"JOHN SPELMAN III\" href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=2496\">Mr. Spelman&#8217;<\/a>s painting, &#8220;The Tumbledown.&#8221; Around the garden was a rock wall which had been built by my great grandfather&#8217;s slaves before the Civil War. After many years of faithful service it, too, was beginning to lose its once almost perfect shape. Out past this wall I saw a small log cabin which was less tumbled down than the other house. I then recalled hearing my mother tell me that Grandpa, as she, too, called him, never lived in the same house with his slaves. Yes, I guessed it, sure enough this was the cabin where the slaves had stayed. As I looked over this old time worn place which has been deserted for about thirty years, I thought of the plantation songs, of Uncle Tom&#8217;s Cabin, and of Uncle Remus. I used to enjoy above all things sitting around the fire and listening to my mother tell the tales which my great grandmother had told her about slavery in Virginia.<br \/>\n\u2014 Delia Taylor<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>MY EXPERIENCE AT HITCH-HIKING\u00a0<\/b>(with emphasis on the hiking)<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">For about a week one summer I had been planning a trip down through Corbin and London to visit some friends. In order to save two or three dollars, I decided to hitch-hike. For after all, as you know, hitch-hiking is about the cheapest method of transportation a fellow can find these days, provided he is lucky. My set date rolled around. I strolled off down to the highway about seven o&#8217;clock in the morning. Within five minutes after I arrived at the road I got my first ride. It was short, only about a mile. Still I was off to a good start. This gave me courage and a good spirit. I was sure that everything would turn out fine because hitch-hiking was so easy. But, by the time I had walked the next nine miles with my thumb stuck out and with cars whizzing on by, I had changed my mind entirely.<\/p>\n<p>It was eleven o&#8217;clock. I had traveled ten miles and nine of them afoot. I was all in, exhausted and discouraged. I took the next bus back home.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know when I will go visit those friends, but I do know how. I&#8217;ll take a Greyhound.<br \/>\n\u2014 Calvin Jones<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Page\u00a011<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><b>ON A FISHING TRIP<\/b><br \/>\nEarly one autumn morning Harrison and Will, my favorite uncles who made me stay home for a day if I mentioned the word &#8220;uncle&#8221;, announced that we were going fishing. Fishing or o&#8217;possum hunting, I always went with them even if my grandmother did occasionally threaten to put a stop to the unladylike &#8220;galavanting&#8221; in which her seven year old grandchild took special delight. Harrison, the only worker of the three, had put everything in the boat before breakfast. The thing that always caused a delay in getting started came up as usual. My hair must be done up in braids for the customary long snaky yellows rolls could not stand the roughing I had to take. To this day when anyone mentions blondes I remember those yellow rolls with horror. &#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if those snakes as you call them turn up missing someday&#8221;, stated Will in a tone that made my heart leap at the thought of anything so impossible. Harrison, Will, and myself of course were the only three who liked each other enough to try to overlook the calamity of long yellow rolls. Drifting down the river in the boat seemed like using an eraser slowly, so as to wipe out anything you did not want to remember. The place best for setting the trout line soon was selected. I brought out the worms which I had helped dig from the old tobacco bed and started putting them on the hooks. I don&#8217;t squeal or jump from worms like most girls. That is just a way of announcing that you are a girl and everyone knows that. Catching Harrison eyeing me with a questioning look, I asked if he wanted me to eat some of the worms. &#8220;I don&#8217;t doubt you&#8217;d do it if you took a notion but anyone that can string worms the way you do and still be a girl don&#8217;t deserve to keep something she don&#8217;t like.&#8221; With this he turned into the willows which lined the bank like a hedge. Will had dinner ready \u2014 fried corn cakes, boiled coffee, pickles, and brown fish \u2014 a dinner fit for three hungry fishermen. Then Harrison got back. &#8220;Well old timer,&#8221; Harrison began, &#8220;this dinner will be a celebration of something nobody on this river would dare to do excepting us, of course.&#8221; Shocked is not the best adjective to use for my feeling at the moment. The world stood still but I soon recovered with a yell that would have made the best Swiss yodeller turn green. Seeing those two braids in Harrison&#8217;s hands instead of on my head gave me greater pleasure than going to the circus. I felt like a real person after my hair was clipped to a happy go lucky boyish bob. The rest of the day is a complete loss to me. I know I hugged everything in sight or came in contact with and kept myself continually in the way of fish line but nobody seemed to mind. Reaching home that afternoon we<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Page 12<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">finally managed to brave the smokehouse door where grandmother was cutting soap. Will started to say something about my getting tangled up in fish line but the look on grandmother&#8217;s face stopped him. She just stood there between the apple-butter paddle and the soap knife for what seemed hours.

With freedom of speech we can hear both sides of a question, its assets and its liabilities. We could not do that in certain countries today. With freedom of the press we can see news that has not been changed to suit one certain person at the head of our government as is done in some parts of the world. In some countries the people can go to only one church where they can have only one religion. Uncle Sam gives us the right to worship any way, anywhere, and at any time. That is what Uncle Sam means to me.<\/p>\n<p>He also means peace, protection, democracy, and education. We do not dread the bombers of other countries coming to bomb us. We are not afraid that our rights are not being defended in our government. We do not go around with gnawing hunger pains inside our stomachs. We are well clothed, well sheltered from the wind, rain, and cold. Ours is a land of opportunity. We have more of a chance to do something for ourselves than people do in most countries of this day and age. New frontiers are opening themselves to us every day, showing the vast wealth and resources that lie within our borders. We have fine works of art and literature to draw from as well. Truly speaking we have almost anything that human beings should wish for.<\/p>\n<p>I walk the streets with no fear of shrapnel. I carry no gas mask under my arm. Birds sing. They are not hushed by the distant rumble of cannon. At night I sleep soundly, not with the fear of being awakened by the piercing cry of a siren, warning me that death from the sky is near at hand. The buds are bursting forth on the limbs of the trees. The grass is beautifully green. There are no bomb craters in the turf which is bringing forth new life. There is peace and prosperity everywhere. We have something to live for which cannot easily be put into words.

There were no stones to bump my bare toes against; but if there were stones I did not want to go without shoes like I did in the mountains because they all wore shoes even down to little children. I thought it strange for the little children to be wearing shoes because I was always used to going barefooted when summer came. There was one thing that bothered me most. There were no small creeks or branches in which I could wade and even fish for minnows as I did back home.<\/p>\n<p>I started to school and I was never so lonesome in my life. The school was so large and had so many students and they all talked very different from me. They would all gather around and try to get me to talk.

It was then that I was so happy the tears ran down my cheeks in spite of my trying to keep them back. That night was a restless night for me.

Not any of them were sure in any way what they were fighting for when they undertook to support any of the candidates, Democrat or Republican, Communist or Socialist. But regardless of the outcome of that great election, the youth of this country will have to accept for the next one to six years, until they come of age, the principles of parties that use questionable methods to gain power over the government of the United States. Those principles may seem right or they may seem wrong to the individual youth and and yet he is willing to support the party which stands for those principles. Does he support that party because his father supported before him? If so, he is terribly ignorant of the fact that he lives in a country with some one hundred and thirty odd millions of other people. If every voter of this country were thinking of all those other people when he went to the polls, we would certainly have some very different election days. Sometimes we may wonder whether our country is really democratic. To be democratic the individual citizens must be democratic.<\/p>\n<p>This article does not accuse any party in any election of giving the people principles which are wrong. And yet, we have so many different parties in this country, each one ready to tell one hundred and thirty millions of people that its principles are right. The youth are very ignorant of politics and do not rightly know what to expect as right.<\/p>\n<p>The youth must abolish &#8216;dirty&#8217; politics and in their years of suffrage must vote for the good and betterment of all people not for a political party or for the big capitalists of this country. A steady flow of youth is the backbone of our nation and they must not absorb the ideas of a political party but must absorb the American idea of living and democracy. Political parties in some areas even stoop to buy a man&#8217;s vote, a crime which should not be permitted in a democracy.<\/p>\n<p>What a future for the youth of America if they will all fight for a better America wherein we will have a government of all the people, by all the people, and for all the people!<br \/>\n&#8212; An editorial written by Robert Blanton\u00a0for the December <i>PINE CONE<\/i><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Page\u00a023<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><b>CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION WILL BEGIN DECEMBER 15<\/b><br \/>\nPine Mountain&#8217;s old English Christmas celebration to be held during the week of December 15 will be a pre-dedication for new <a title=\"LAUREL HOUSE II\" href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=6330\">Laurel House.<\/a> The festivities will begin Sunday with open house everywhere on the campus and will end with carol singing late Thursday evening.<\/p>\n<p>All Christmas decorations are to be completed by open house day.

A great variety of dances will be done this year, but the American dances such as &#8220;Lady Walpole&#8217;s Reel&#8221; and &#8220;Portland Fancy&#8221; and Danish dances such as &#8220;Danish Contra Dance&#8221; seem to be student favorites.

The dancers consider themselves fortunate to have an authority such as Miss Christensen with them each spring to teach better appreciation of the fine art of folk dancing.<\/p>\n<p>Pine Mountain is known for its folk dancing, and visitors who come to observe this tradition find it true to the old English custom. The tunes are lively and the dancers are flushed and happy as they dance the rhythmic figures, girls dressed in light spring prints and the boys in white.<br \/>\n&#8212;-Written by\u00a0Eleanor Ayers\u00a0for the May issue of the <em>PINE CONE<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Page\u00a026<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" align=\"left\"><b>TWO POEMS<\/b><br \/>\nHere I sit<br \/>\nwasting time;<br \/>\nI would give a dime<br \/>\nto\u00a0know\u00a0the time<br \/>\nclass changes.<br \/>\nWhat have\u00a0I gained?<br \/>\nonly a thought<br \/>\nI\u00a0have fought<br \/>\nAt the most\u00a0distressing moments<br \/>\nGive me\u00a0a\u00a0flower;<br \/>\nWhat has the power<br \/>\nTo\u00a0restore joy<br \/>\nBut a little flower?<br \/>\n&#8212;\u00a0Ruth Ann Cornett<br \/>\nLinoleum cut by Cora Lee Nolan<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Page\u00a027<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><b>BOOKS ABOUT THE ENGLAND WE KNEW BEFORE THE WAR<\/b><br \/>\nFor a picture of English society with its struggles between goodness and vice, its show, its sentiment, and its hypocrisy during the Victorian period, consult Mr. William Makepeace Thackeray. He will give you that unsentimental book of no special humanitarian purpose,\u00a0<i>Vanity Fair<\/i>. In the book itself we are told how the author who had just finished school met Becky, Jos, Amelia, and Dobbin who were all grown up and already out in the world at Pumpernickle.<\/p>\n<p>The little comfortable grand ducal town of Pumpernickle whither Jos and his party and Major Dobbin on his return from India had come traveling together is familiar to all readers of\u00a0<i>Vanity Fair;<\/i>\u00a0and so are the carriage, and the courier on the box, and the Erb Prince Hotel where the whole party dined <em>table d&#8217;hote<\/em>. War was upon England as Thackeray wrote this book and he said to his people, &#8220;You will never have to run from the streets again because of air raids.&#8221; But unfortunately his words were not prophetic.<\/p>\n<p>Another book depicting the prosperous England of the upper middle class is Henry Esmond. Charles Dickens, a contemporary of Thackeray, does not interpret the upper class but pictured the conditions of the English lower class. In accord with the general movement toward social reform which characterized the first half of the nineteenth century Dickens used the novel as a social force directed against unjust and cruel laws, the school system, or some other institution that needed reforming.<\/p>\n<p>In <i>David Copperfield<\/i> he touches the life of the lower class and the sorrows of childhood amid the poverty and misery of London slums. His portrayal of human life and character is realistic and especially so in his two best known works which are <i>David Copperfield<\/i> and <i>The Pickwick Papers<\/i>. The latter is a loosely connected series of sketches of the two classes. For an understanding of the dreadful social conditions that resulted from the Industrial Revolution you should read <i>Oliver Twist<\/i>. You will enjoy, too, <i>The Life of Our Lord,\u00a0<\/i>written for his children.<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8211; Written by\u00a0Emma Lou Mullins\u00a0for the April issue of the <em>PINE CONE<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">__________________________________<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Page\u00a028<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>TIME WAITS FOR NO MAN<\/b><br \/>\nHe walked along the dusty road<br \/>\nHis hay fork in his hand,<br \/>\n&#8220;&#8216;Tis such a long way to the field<br \/>\nBut the work I must do won&#8217;t stand.&#8221;<br \/>\nA few more steps he trudged along<br \/>\nHis mind he changed a bit,<br \/>\nSo sat he down in the shade of a tree<br \/>\n&#8220;Tomorrow I shall not sit.&#8221;<br \/>\nTake warning all who sing this song<br \/>\nDon&#8217;t think as this man thought,<br \/>\nOr else the world will not progress<br \/>\nBy talent it has sought.<br \/>\nWhen things you know should be done today<br \/>\nBe sure to do them then,<br \/>\nBefore you have the time to think<br \/>\nOf good things you&#8217;ll begin.<br \/>\nThe little things you leave undone<br \/>\nTo do you know not how,<br \/>\nYou&#8217;ll have to do in time to come<br \/>\nSo why not do them now?<br \/>\n&#8212;- Gwendolyn Hendren<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>FEAR OF THE WAR<\/b><br \/>\nAs war continues the nerves of the English become steadier. There is noise always ringing in their ears. This comes from the drone of airplanes, the bursting of bombs, the rat-tat-tat of machine gun fire. With all of this going on we wonder how the people can stand it. It explains that the people are willing to undertake any heavy problem so that their nation may live. I think the war has gone too far now to break down the morale of the English people. I believe that if the citizens of Berlin had had their nerves terrorized by the bursting of bombs and machine gunning as the citizens of London had, the German people would be begging for peace. The Nazi government would have to consider this or face a revolution among the people.<\/p>\n<p>When an air raid alarm sounds the people all look toward the sky, and when the bombs start following, they run to bomb shelters to stay all day and sometimes all night. If Germany wins the war I do not believe they can keep control over the people, and certainly not all of them will do what the Nazi government wants them to do. As the war continues and Britain meets heavier losses, she calls on the United States for help. So we may be in battle against the best army in the world, the German army. With this I do not agree. If Germany wins this war, she will not try to invade our country for a while. So we all listen to what is going on. Why not put in a prayer asking for this war to turn its course and go in the other direction?<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8211;Oral Howard<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Page\u00a029<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><b>WE CAME TO PINE MOUNTAIN<\/b><br \/>\nFrom the busy smoke filled coal camps<br \/>\nAlong Black Mountain and Pine Mountain<br \/>\nFrom the small towns along the Cumberland and the Poor Fork,<br \/>\nFrom the rural districts of Harlan, Bell, and Letcher<br \/>\nWe came to Pine Mountain.<br \/>\nFrom Benham and Bledsoe,<br \/>\nLouellen and Corbin,<br \/>\nFrom Hotspot and Coldiron,<br \/>\nHazard and Hyden,<br \/>\nFrom Partridge and Twila,<br \/>\nChevrolet and Divide,<br \/>\nWe came to Pine Mountain \u2014<br \/>\nTo discover a larger world<br \/>\nPeopled with friendly students and teachers eager to guide us.<\/p>\n<p>To this larger world at first so bewildering<br \/>\nWe finally adjusted ourselves.<br \/>\nWe could not understand a system without grades &#8211;<br \/>\nA system where manners, graciousness, and self-control<br \/>\nSeemed far more important than the making of A&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>We could not understand that planting potatoes,<br \/>\nMilking cows, baking bread, and cleaning houses<br \/>\nWere all part of an education.<br \/>\nSome of us were not happy<br \/>\nBut we made ourselves content.<br \/>\nOthers were happy.<br \/>\nWe eighth graders worked, played, and wondered about it all.<\/p>\n<p>One day in the fall of 1936<br \/>\nThe chapel bell called us to pay tribute<br \/>\nTo the memory of <a title=\"KATHERINE PETTIT\" href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=424\">Miss Katherine Pettit<\/a>,<br \/>\nThe founder of our school.<br \/>\nShe pioneered and blazed the trail<br \/>\nFor the education of mountain youth here and elsewhere.<br \/>\nAs we learned of her courageous work<br \/>\nIn making real the vision of <a title=\"\u201cUNCLE WILLIAM\u201d CREECH\" href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=2005\">Uncle William Creech<\/a><br \/>\nWe began to appreciate the heritage into which we had come.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Page 30<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Then a forest fire threatened a part of this school<br \/>\nNow growing dear to us.<br \/>\nAll boys rushed to fight the leaping flames!<br \/>\nNearer and nearer crept the fire<br \/>\nLapping the grasses in its path<br \/>\nShowering <a title=\"PRACTICE HOUSE (COUNTRY COTTAGE)\" href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=596\">Practice Cottage<\/a> with sparks.<br \/>\nGirls fired furnaces<br \/>\nBoys raked fire lines.<br \/>\nGirls milked cows<br \/>\nBoys mowed down the underbrush.<br \/>\nGirls carried food<br \/>\nBoys completed the fire line!<br \/>\nFighting fire with fire!<br \/>\nOur buildings were saved!<\/p>\n<p>Back to the <a title=\"BURKHAM SCHOOL HOUSE I\" href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=461\">schoolhouse<\/a>, to clay modeling, to Elizabethan plays,<br \/>\nTo old folk tales, and to poetry &#8211; our great joy.<br \/>\nAn old English Christmas &#8211; our first one.<br \/>\nLiving again in the times of Dickens, Irving, and Bracebridge Hall.<br \/>\nThe good cheer of <a title=\"OPEN HOUSE\" href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=6617\">Open House<\/a><br \/>\nGifts and adoration at the Nativity Play<br \/>\nThe hushed expectancy of the candle lighting<br \/>\nThe ivy garland and The Holly and the Ivy<br \/>\nFrom Far Away We Come to You bearing the tree<br \/>\nCoins for the Mummers<br \/>\nA little lad astride the Yule Log<br \/>\nThe joyful wassailers, the stately minuet<br \/>\nNoel, Noel, reechoed through the valley in the frosty morning.<br \/>\nHome for a Christmas we had already observed.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile there were changes in government.<br \/>\nWhile we reached for the funny papers<br \/>\nOlder students scanned the headlines<br \/>\nTelling of the first January inauguration of a President of the United States.<br \/>\nThe passing of the lame duck session meant less to us than the loss of the old <a title=\"BOY\u2019S INDUSTRIAL BUILDING\" href=\"http:\/\/staging.pinemountainsettlement.net\/?page_id=357\">Industrial Building<\/a>.<br \/>\nMay Day dances on the green.<br \/>\nSellenger&#8217;s Round about the May Pole<br \/>\nSet to the right, set to the left, 1-2-3-4<br \/>\nTraces of gracefulness appearing at last.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Page 31<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">How eagerly we went home for our summer vacations<br \/>\nAnd how eagerly we returned in the fall of 1937.<br \/>\nHigh school at last!
