was full of good works and alms

was truly applicable to the life
of Sister Orr. Her remains were
then laid to rest by the side of
her husband to await the second
coming of our Lord. Peace to
her ashes! “Well done good and

Cnnnestee Lodge No. 2371. 0.0. F.
Prominent Young Business Men of Brevard Or
ganize an Odd Fellows Lodge.
On the night of Tuesday, Sept.
1, at the Masonic Lodge rooms in
Brevard, a lodge of Odd Fellows
with the above title, w’as institut
ed, the ceremonies incident there
to being in charge of Grand Mas
ter Dr. L. B. McBrayer and a
staff of assistants.
Among the staff were members
of the order from Asheville. Hen
dersonville and Hickory, N. C ,
Knoxville, Tenn., and Jackson
ville, Fla., about twenty-live vis
iting members being present.
There were eighteen of Bre
vard's young men w’ho \vere ini
tiated into the mysteries of Odd-
fellowship, and nine more who
will be added at the next meeting.
The officers elected w’ere J. A.
Forsythe, N. G.; E. R Black,
ViceG.; Z. W. Nichols, Record
ing Sec’y; W. J. Puette’ Finan
cial Sec'y; T. D. England. Treas.
Regular meetings will be held
but at present it is not possible
to announce detinitPily where and
when. An effort is making to
secure the use of the Masonic
hall, which many hope will be
successful.
This new society, new at least
to the citizens of Brevard, starts
out with a fine membership and
glowing ])rospects. Previous tf>
this move the Masons have had
the field to themselves—now
they will be compelled to make
their meetings attractive or the
natural growth of secret orders
will go to the Odd Fellows. The
News bids them godspeed on
their mission of well doing.
Broad Valley Notes.
l'>litor Sylvan Valley >.ews.
School is doing well. There
are more than a hundred in regu
lar attendance and more are daily
coming.
We are glad to report that Dr.
W. M. Lyday is, rather slowly but
surely recovering from liis re
cent illness. He will soon be
with his ]>atients again.
Prof. Hall attended the Union
meting at Cathey's Creek Satur
day and Sunday. He seems
overjoyed on account of the kind
treatment of those good people.
Messrs. Joe and Silas Sim
mons, two v’ery ])rominent young
men of South Carolina, entered
school September 1st. We are
glad to know throug’ them that
others are coming from that
state.
Rev. Mr. Kuykendall visited
our school one day this week and
made a })leasant talk. He is
looking for a house for the pur
pose of [)utting his children in
our school. We most heartily
welcome him.
Elza Lyday and Prof. Bradley
went to Reba on last Saturday.
They returned late Sunday even
ing and speak in the highest
terms of the royal entertainment
they received at the hands of
those loyal citizens.
As it is rather late in the seas
on for Snowballs to blossom, I
will call off and wait for another
warm shower.
Best wishes to Editors and all
who read the paper.

STATIONERY
As a rule a man will feel well satis
fied if he can hobble around on crutch
es two or three weeks after spraining
his ankle, and it is usually two or
three months before he has fully re
covered. This is an unnecessary loss
of time, for in many cases in which
rhamberlain’s Pain Balm has been
promptly and freely applied, a com
plete cure has Ijeen effected in less
than one week’s time, and in some
cas*^s within three days.
