50
Students who board themselves are required to clean up and keep their rooms in order.
The people of Why Not and surrounding community are respectfully requested not to give any social entertainments or parties to which they invite students during the school week. We must insist that the student's business here is to study, and the attendance upon such entertainments or parties is detrimental to his school life. It is our aim at this school to make students of all sec- tions, parties, creeds and conditions feel perfectly at home and meet on a level of perfect equality.
During the year we expect to have a series of £ lectures on topics of interest to students and patrons.
Each student should provide himself with a Bible and keep it regularly in his room. We believe in encouraging the young to read the Bible.
Students must not attend parties or social gatherings during
the school week; and we advise that they not attend such gatherings at all, as it interferes with their school work.
At the commencement in May, 1906 the following won medals:
Declaimer's Medal, Mr. D. F. Hulin, Okeeweemee, N. C. Reciter's Medal, Miss Ina Bean, Seagrove, R. F. D., N. C.
No student will be allowed to contest for, or win a prize or medal, who has not been in school at least two months, or has not passed the examinations of the school, unless excused from exami- nations for good reasons.
We solicit the patronage and co-operation of all who go or send to school with a view of acquiring knowledge. We do not claim to have any new road to knowledge. The only way to success lies through the land of effort and toil, and no student need expect to succeed unless he or she is willing to put forth the proper amount of effort.
Diplomas are granted to students completing in a
satisfactory manner any of the courses of study. Diploma fee $2.00. The following completed the Commercial course last term: Messrs. L. C. Maness, Prosperity, N. C .; G. W. Scott, Flower Hill, N. C .; and W. L. Trogdon, Aconite, N. C.

CHAPTER FOUR:
HISTORY OF
WHY NOT MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION
of
The Why Not Memorial Association is a voluntary association citizens whose goals are the preservation of the Fair Grove Church building and cemetery, and the perpetuation of the history of the Why Not Academy, the Fair Grove Methodist Church, and the
Why Not community. The Association is composed of the alumni of Why Not Academy and their descendants, the former members of the Fair Grove Methodist Church and their descendants, and citizens of the Why Not community.
After Why Not Academy burned in 1916, many former teachers and students met annually and held a memorial service in memory of the academy, the academy's two great leaders -- professors James P. Boroughs and George F. Garner -- and the other teachers who taught there, and the academy's graduates. At a meeting of this
group on May 17,
1936, the Why Not Memorial
Association
was
founded. W. Carson King led the drive to create the Association because he wanted to see that the Fair Grove Church, which had been discontinued as a regular church by the Methodist Conference in 1935, and its cemetery and grounds would be maintained proper- ly in the future. The Association was to meet annually on the third Sunday in May. The first officers of the Why Not Memorial
Association were W. C. King, President; L. A. King, Vice-
55
President; Lela Lemonds, Secretary; Mrs. C. E. Stuart, Historian. At the May, 1937, meeting of the Association, a Grounds Committee and a Constitution and By-Laws Committee were appointed. Elsey Allen suggested that the Association purchase the site of the old Why Not Academy and erect a monument on it to the memory of the academy and to the work of the late Professor Garner. No action was taken to do this.
The Constitution and By-Laws Committee was composed of W. C. King, W. C. Garner, and Euclid Auman. In May, 1938, the Consti- tution and By-Laws drawn up by the committee were presented to the Association, voted on, and accepted.
Between 1940 and 1942, the church was painted, the cemetery was seeded, a retaining wall was built along the south and east sides of the cemetery, and cemetery plots were made available to buyers. In 1948, Phil and Nell Graves donated land adjoining the cemetery to the Association.
The Why Not Memorial Association elected a Board of Trustees in 1950. The main function of the Trustees was to serve as an authority to issue and receive deeds in the name of the Associa- tion. But there were now two boards of trustees in the Why Not community: one for the Why Not Memorial Association, and one for
the Fair Grove Methodist Church (which had been in existence for a long time) . To simplify legal, administrative, and financial matters, community leaders decided to combine the functions and powers of the two boards under one authority. The board of trustees for the church agreed to transfer the title of the Fair Grove Methodist Church to the trustees of the Why Not Memorial
56
Association, which was done on February 24, 1951. At that time, the trustees of the church were C. L. Monroe, C. E. Stuart, and J. D. Lilly; the trustees of the Association were L. A. King, M. c.
Auman, Mrs. A. C. Lowdermilk, Ernest Cagle, and D. R.
Graves. The deed, in part, reads as follows:
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the aforementioned Fairgrove Methodist Church has for some years been virtually an abandoned church so that for all practical purpose said church does not now exist except as
a legal entity; and
WHEREAS, the Whynot Memorial Association is a voluntary association for memorial purpose made up of various old members of the Whynot Community and their descendants, which Association has for many years conducted an annual "Homecoming" program in said community and at the particular site of said church in whose cemetery many of the ancestors of the association members are buried; and
WHEREAS, for several years said Association has taken a considerable part in maintaining the church cemetery and grounds; and
WHEREAS, this deed was recently authorized by the Quarterly
Conference of the Seagrove Charge of the Methodist Church, said authorization being more particularly and exactly set out as follows:
RESOLUTION CONCERNING FAIRGROVE METHODIST CHURCH
IN THE THOMASVILLE DISTRICT
WHEREAS, Fairgrove Methodist Church on the Seagrove charge in the Thomasville District has to all practical intents been an abandoned church for several years, most of the members having moved away from the community, while others have transferred their membership to Seagrove; and
WHEREAS, there does exist the Why Not Memorial Association composed of former residents and former members of said Fairgrove Methodist Church, which is interested in the perpetual upkeep of the cemetery, part of which is owned in fee simple by the said Why Not Memorial Association; and
church
used as a
WHEREAS, said Memorial Association desires to maintain the property in a decent state of repair so that same may be chapel for funerals and as a place for the annual
57
gatherings of said Memorial Association; and
WHEREAS, the Quarterly Conference of the Seagrove charge is agreeable to such an arrangement;
NOW,
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Fairgrove Methodist
Church be declared an abandoned church and that the trustees
of
lot, said church be authorized and empowered to deed the church and the cemetery lots, to the Board of Trustees of the Why Not Memorial Association, and their successors in office, for use as a chapel in connection with the cemetery as a place for the annual gatherings; however, in the event that said Why Not Memorial Association should cease to function in maintaining the property, or in using it as agreed upon, the title would revert to the Western North Carolina Conference of the Methodist Church.
A motion was made and carried at the 1955 business meeting
of the Association "that a suitable marker be purchased and erected near the site of the old Why Not Academy, in memory of Professors James P. Boroughs and George F. Garner." A marker was purchased and erected at a cost of $489.99. The unveiling
ceremony took place on May 20, 1956. Mrs. Connie Gross,
granddaughter
of Professor
Boroughs, and Miss
Nancy
Garner,
of Professor Garner played prominent roles in the granddaughter
Mrs. Etta celebration. Other persons of note present were
Austin, Mrs. Connie Lowdermilk, Mrs. Velon Auman, Mrs. George Matthews, Mr. Bert Spencer, and Miss Rosa Stowe; each of them had assisted professors Garner or Boroughs at one time or another at the academy. Also present were Mr. John Garner, brother of Professor Garner, and Mrs. Minnie Hammer, alumnus and benefactor.
The Why Not Memorial Association published History of Fair Grove Methodist Church in 1958. The history was written by Minnie Spencer Stuart with the assistance of Connie Lowdermilk. Mrs. Hester Champion took care of the printing arrangements.
This history is a major source of information about the Fair Grove Church, the Why Not Memorial Association, , and the Why Not
58
community in general.
In 1972, J. B. Slack and Clyde Auman suggested that the Why
Not Memorial Association be incorporated. The articles of
16, incorporation were drawn up, and they were signed on May
1973. The original Board of Directors were L. A. King, Ernest Cagle, Harwood Graves, Shelton Graves, and J. B. Slack. The purpose of the Why Not Memorial Association, Inc., as stated in its charter, was as follows:
The Association is organized for the purposes of establish- ing and maintaining a program of perpetual care for the Why Not Cemetery and the Why Not Church (formerly the Fair Grove Meth- odist Protestant Church), at Why Not, below Seagrove, North Carolina, Randolph County; and of holding annual memorial and who homecoming services at such Church and Cemetery for people are descendants or relatives of present or former residents of the community, or former members of the Church or former students or teachers at Why Not Academy, or friends or loved ones of any of the foregoing.
