Daughters Hear
Schools Discussed
Mrs. Harry Gocller was hostess to Eulalona chapter of
The Daughters of the American Revolution, Monday evening,
when the chapter met for the usual business session and to
hear a program on their own Kate Duncan Smith and Tamassee
schools, as well as other approved schools to which the
Daughters contribute.
Mrs. Bert C. Thomas told her hearers that in the foothills
of the Appalachian mountains in Alabama stands a mountain
whose top has the appearance of having been sliced completely
off, leaving a plain over six"
miles wide. On this Plain is
remote rural community nine
miles from a railroad. This
elevation is named Gunter
mountain and on Gunter moun
tain is situated the Kate Dun
can Smith DAR school which
serves an area of 100 square
miles with an enrollment of
620 pupils.
Although this school is an
accredited senior high school,
teaching all grades, it is far
more than the ordinary county
school, which offers educational
facilities to communities where
school is the accepted thing.
This school, maintained entire
ly by funds provided by the
DAR chapters throughout the
nation, brings children from
homes in which poverty and in
difference have been the de
ciding factors against education.
The ' school prepares boys and
girls for happy and useful lives
on farms, brings to adults a
knowledge of the better things
of life and of the better ways
of living; stimulates an interest
in new farming methods and it
is the endeavor of those sup
porting the school to make a
healthy, happy rural commun
ity life possible for those who
live in the Gunter mountain
area..-.
One girl wrote expressing her
gratitude to the DAR that the
school had enabled her t o
escape from an unfortunate and
unhappy home where her step
father was unable to support
his children, and she told of
being taught to make over old
clothes, studying the prepara
tion of foods, of housekeeping,
and entertaining guests. She
spoke of the changes which the
school had brought to their
mountain, where formerly a
child seldom finished the fourth
grade. Daughters of the Amer
ican Revolution feel that letters
such as this fully repay the
sacrifices made to maintain this
school for mountain children.
A romantic legend gives the
name to the other fully sup
ported DAR school, Tamassee.
A romantic Cherokee Indian
legend of a great fire prophet
whose wisdom and power of
healing were attributed to the
possession of a large ruby,
called by the Indians "The Sun
light of God" from its great
glowing fire. At the death of
the wise man, in obedience to
his instructions, he was buried
with the beautiful stone clasped
to his breast. The knoll where
the grave lay was called Tam
assee, the Place of the Sunlight
of God. After more than 200
years Tamassee is again a place
where the Sunlight of God goes
forth into many lives for here
is maintained the Tamassee
school for young Americans
who otherwise would grow up
in ignorance and poverty.
Mrs. H. A. Nitschelm
touched upon other schools ap
proved by the Daughters and
partially supported by them,
but whose funds come from
various sources. These schools
serve the colored children as
well as the white children.
During the business session
delegates to the state confer
ence in March were selected.
Delegates consist of Mrs. Mar
garet Powell Lamb. Mrs. R v.
Wright, Mrs. G. E. McCleJlan,
Mrs. Vida Hanson, and the

Eva Burkhalter, Mrs. L. O.
