Now the anticipation of weaving their own rugs on the camp’s own loom has grown. One mountain school was kind enough to allow the girls to visit them, at which time all present joined in some of the popular folk games.

Mr. Laughter Say Rumor Is Untrue
Replying to a news items that appeared in the Hendersonville News dated July 31st, in which it was stated that I was charged with complicity in stealing a Ford automobile from Eugene Williams and James Duff of Hendersonville, and being at large in Polk County, I wish to state that said news item was absolutely false in every particular, that I am at my home in Mill Springs, Polk County, and have been there all time. I am still at my home and can be seen at any time.
