I Banner Elk.?The Women's Club of Banner Elk held its December meeting Toes day afternoon of last week at the home of Mrs. Edgar , Tcfts. The Christmas spirit was evi- , dent on entering- the house which ^ was beautifully decorated with the * Cliriswmas greens and red candles,! i with v lighted tree as the table dec-j' oration in the dining room. In spite or snow and sleet there was an attendance of thirty club members and guests. Mrs. Marion Murray, the wife of the new pastor at the Banner Elk Presbyterian Church, was elected a member and welcomed into the club. Miss Fannie Lowe presiding, after the singing of A merica, gave a report of the community Christmas last year and called for a discussion by the club of the program for this vear. It was decided to take a silver offering at the meeting and to ask the j Civitan Club to do the same at- its i next meeting, the proceeds to be used to give Christmas baskets to some of the less privileged members of the community. The program follows: Roll call?answered by Christmas quotations. Music, "Santa Claus' Coming," by Mrs. Tufts, Jackie and Margaret Hardin. Violin solo, "Christmas Carols," by Miss Carlnton.

The meeting closed by the repeating of the Woman's Club Collect and the singing of Christmas carols by the children, assisted by Mrs. Tufts. Delicious refreshments were served ai the close of the meeting when a ! social hour was enjoyed. HIGHWAY PATROLMEN LAY STRESS ON HEADLIGHTS I Raleigh.?Encouraged with the accomplishment of what had seemed an almost impossible task in the past, Captain Charles D. Farmer of the State Highway Patrol is making a forceful drive against accidents, following announcement a week ago by :State Highway authorities that the number of auto accidents in North Carolina must be substantially re duced. With fog, mist and anioke, such as, the motorist has encountered during recent days. Captain Former is laying stress on the headlight situation. The patrol chief said today, "When the Highway Patrol began to function in July, 192S, one of the first serious problems confronting our organization was that of getting two good headlights properly focused on the front of each ear and at least one good rear light. With the small number of patrolmen it seemed like a hopeless task to cope with over a half-million autos on the highways. Our men put enthusiasm into their work. We received generally the cooperation of the public and the help of city policemen throughout the State. The result was that over a period of time the menace of the one-evcd ear was practically wiped out and the benefit to the motorist is difficult to measure in dollars and cents." Having a larger force of men. Captain Farmer is confident thnt with reasonable help from the public and the continued co-operation by local police, the highway patrol will be successful in its attack on blinding headlights and faulty brakes. "These continue as great dangers to public safety," he said. "When a driver can't see a reasonable distance ahead at night because of blindness brought about by the headlights of cars approaching him and when he can't stop because of faulty brakes, he is unsafe. To reduce accidents we liave firsJ. oliminat-A Hie /?n*.icAe orw? this we intend to do." STANFORD PRESS MENTIONS LEES-McRAE JUNIOR COLLEGE Banner Elk.?The following statement appears in the November issue of the Junior College Journal, published by the Stanford University Press, California: "One of the most recent additions of the junior college family is LeesMcltac College at Banner Elk, North Carolina. This institution is under the ! control of the Presbyterian Church and has begun its work under encouraging circumstances. The State Department of Education has accorded it .full junior college standing. .'h'-v km*O3MMV?HE9SBctSwrSM !KY THTjRSOAY?BOONK, N. C.
