JONES GIVES VIEWS The following crtlclc appeared in last week's- Frankllnton News: An article appeared ou the edi torial page of The Franklin Times, Feb. 9, 1923, which IS similar to what happened to a man about the first of June. He was gol!ig down from Franklnton to Loulsburg on a political trip and fell among thieves v ho. stripped him of his political rights, leaving him dead politically. By chance there came down some political priests, re joicing that they had h'ni out of the way, and they passed by on the other side. Likewise the Levltes when he was at the same place, came and looked upon him and passed him by, but some Samaritans, as they Journeyef], came where he was. When they saw him they had com passion on him and restored to him the political rights. He started again on his Journey in an effort to ftilflli his pledge by writing some resolutions For this he has fallen In the bands of somo one else who haa attacked in an effort to take from h* m his principles and character by bringing false accusations. Some think the article was writ ten by Prof. Best. He does not (or he believes Mr. Best Is too i much of a hlghtoned Christian gentleman to write such an arti cle. The person writing seimed !to think when any one differs with him. he is a poor, Ignorant A* the article appeared in the editorial columns somo think it was the Mftor. Bat surely he t > was t*o much of a gentleman to hav* written such an article, as he la ? fyui who Will not cheat, wrong or defraud or apeak evil of aaoti&r's good hartie (8ign?d) JT. R. JONES. We are reproducing the above ar ticle tor tiro reasons Flrtt, Mr. Jones tia so titled that hia view* to be given I the pw publicity as the article he took WoefUttM to. Bran though he haa not requested it, the apace la cheerfully given. Second, he has brought a serious charge against the election officials of Harris township, two-thirds of whom are of the Bame political faith as he ? Democrats ? that we feal it is our duty to defend. The first needs no discussion. The second is what we propose to discuss. The incident he refers to about "He | was going from FrankltntoD to Louis burg on a political trip and fell among thieves" about the first ot June was evidently on Monday, the 5th, when the Board of Elections and the township olection officials met, to canvass the vote of the primary At this time the canvas sshowed that Mr. Jones had been defeated. In a few days it was learned that an error ?[ipear<Sd in the returns from Harris township and an Laves Ligation proved iL to be only an error :n copying the returns, however it re-Instated Mr. Jonas, as a party nominee. In Har ris township the primary election was conducted by Messrs, J. B. King, Osfcar Hagwood and J. T. Mann. These men are among -Franklin County's most honorable, honest and trust worthy men, enjoying the confidence and respect of their fellow-men, {heir community and their parties, and we resent in the strongest terms possi ble any suggestion, either directly or indirectly that the3e men or either of them are thieves, political or othr erwise. We can't get the consent of our mind to believe that Mr. Jones intended to intimate such a' charge, and suggest that he hasten to make the proper apologies to these gentle men, who occupy as hi"h places In the confidence of Franklin county's people as he. The reference he made to THE FRANKLIN TIMES and its editor is entirely all right and we have no de sire to say more, than it is possible that we are entirely ignorant in this matter and that Mr. jonef. is the "wise man." We owe Mr. %Jones an apology if the people elecred him to take charge of the entire County and transac* its business, educational as well as general. We owe him an apology if ho It right in giving $250 to a Military CotJipany, whose duty It is to kill, and deny the unfortunate children and grown-ups the benefits they derive from the Wolrat-e Depart ment in order to save $900.00 We owe him an apology If he is right to defeat the compulsory educational law, thereby denying to the children of Franklin county a God given right to enter life on an equal with their neighbors, for the purpose of saving $900, and which would not reduce tax es one penny. We owe Mr. Jones an apology If he Is right giving piping to Hayesville township to put across public roads, when they have refused to build roads, thereby making the other nine town ships pay for the material for Hayee vllle, after they had Issued bonds and paid for their own. We owe Mr. Jones an apology If he Is right In having two prisoners re lieved of road duty after they had been convicted and sentenced for crime. We have always bad a high regard and deep respect for Mr. Jones and we yet hope tha the will see thp "er ror of his Way" ?n(J that he will meas ure up to our expectations.

Cf the three basketball games last w eek the locals were able to take the larger score in hat one of them. The first game played Tuesday afternoon with the Ingleside quint on their home court. was lost to them by a score of '15 to IS.

N The third game was with the Jus-, tice quint on Friday night on the lo cal court. The locals l.egan the game by fumbing and it at first seem ed that they intended to keep the smaller score again for the first half ended 8 to 5 in favor of Justice. But in the second half the locals staged the greatest comeback seen on the local court this year and held their opponents to oneTSOInt while they ran up a score of eleven the game ending 16 to 9 for Cedar Rock. The second game between Cedar Rock and IngleBide will be plaved Monday night, March 5 on the indoor court at White Level. Student Editorial ? "The Purpose and ..Use of an Education" (My Mattie Dement, 8th Grade) We must look first to. the family as the most Important arrangement for the education of the young citizen. But if they were left entirely to the family however, it would be unequal ly provided. Many of the citizens 6t the U. S. are foreigners and these would have practically no chance for an education. Also if education was left to the family the people of wealth would take pride only In the educa ion of their own children, and would not care for the education of the poor children. Thus the state must pro vide the plan for an education so there will be an equal opportunity for all. A child is educated that he may not only get more out of life, but that he may be able to give more to the up building of the community. Our na tion is Investing millions of dollar* In the education of boys and glrlB ex peeling Its return to be increased. School Is a place for preparing for life, and If truly life itself. K.luca tion Is not only a privilege. It la a outy, because every citizen owes it to his community to equip himself to render the best citizenship posKUile. We must and do expect more ffom the educated man than from an un educated one. Education la not In tended to relieve a person from hard work but to fit him for more and tetter work than he could do other wise. 1 AvoI Chemical Hoclety Home Can n lag of Fruits and \e?re tabl*? by H. 3Ulling?, Jr. Canning It one of the most deni able means 6f preserving fruits and vegetables; for It presorvee these foods In condition more like that of I the freshly cooked product than la the case with dried, brined or pickled i*roMa or vegetables . Canned product* are worthy of a larger share of the houaawlf*. consideration than ih?y usually receive. They help to make us healthier and better nourished; to provide a pleasing variety of succul ent, tender young fruits and vegeta bles throughout the wnter instead of having them only during the few days or weeks when they are in full season; and to save food that wuuld otherwise go to waste. Food spoils because of the growth of very small plants or microorga nisms, of varldbs kinds, such as yeast, molds, and bacteria. Therefore It is essential in the preserving of foods to kill the growth of microorganisms in them, this is done to a certain ex tent by cooklnp- and steaming the fruits ar.d vegetables ? However as It is im practicable to kill all the bacteria by cooking, we have to look other means of preventing their growth. This is done by sealing In air tight jarj as the bacteria not killed by cooking <wlll not grow without air. Processing. The fruit or vegetable may be processed, or cooked loefde I the can or Jar, In several different [ways; by, heating the sealed or part ially sealed Jar under steam pressure ;by the use of canners made specially for that purpose. By heating the can 'cr jar in a water bath or steam bath. , The water /zt steam is kept boiling 'continuously for a length of time re quired to secure satisfactory results [with the fruit or vegetaole. This is the ("one-period" or "continous" process. By heating the can or Jar in a water bath for two or three periods, with Intervals between the periods of from '6 to 24 hours, depending on the cli matic conditions and products canned. This is known as the fractional or In termittent or three period process. Selection of fruits and vegetables. Use only fresh, sound vegetable for canning. No| products wjilch are withered or unsound should be canned, i Can all young Vegetables and soft fruits the same day they are gathered faud as Boon after gathered as possible; I within 3 or 4 hours. Sort and grade according to size and degree of ma turity. Only those vegetaoles which are In choice ( condition for the table that Is your.g, tender, and fresh ? are . suitable for canning. | When cold, store the Jars in a ,cool, dark, dry place where there Is no danger in freezing. Prom time to j time, especially during very hot weath ii, all canned products shculd be ex amined to make sure that there are (no leaks or signs of fermentation Qr spoilage.
