Cruukua or others who ha'O found tho pheno mena of Kptrit innnlfeetatiuna exidalnablo only by the theory that communication with the aplnt world Is a reality. It must also he ad for the creator of hcrlock Holmes that hla belief seems to have redeemed his mind from agnosticism in religion and given him a view of life nnd death more truly Christian than that of many profewlng Christians. Jlut when all the evidence has been studied, as compiled by many wltnenaes, the foot remains that for moiit reople acceptance of the doctrine makes the same demand on faith necessary for the apprehension of any spiritual truth. It la true that the disciples of payrhic com munlcatlon have essayed to reduce their belief to uuuatlons of mathematical exactness, but so 'far have they offered any formula so tree of doubt and removed from controversy that all men couJd test it and say: "This truth wo have tested by experience and found It an answer to all the great enigmas with which tho children of men have struggled eince human life began 7" The medium bring forth from somewhere much that is mysterious and Interesting; it may lead to larger .knowledge of the capacities of the human aoul; but this evidence a! ways seems to reach a point where reason can go no farther and where only the wings of faith cm scale the abyss between the here and the beyond. Moreover, It la at least a tenable asaump tlon that the constitution of mind and of human life do not warrant the exploration of the future either of this life or of the life to come. And certainly much of the messages frar.i the realm of spirit does not commend itself to faith or common sense. Contrast the vat confusion of the table nrfloings. automatlo writing of things busarre and fantastic, with statement from the Man who ia been the race's leader In spiritual progress: "And this Is life eternal, that they might know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Cttrttt "VVTi o mni ou hae sen F." Utirna! " life, The Law Must Be Supreme Twice last week In Jinn com be County Bu perior Cort -the law spoke in tones unmlstak able to th one who may attempt to aland be tween th law and its guardianship of the ,mblic Interest. A lorruer;county ollhlal, of good standing, whose honesty had neier before been ques tioned and Whose Intent to do wrong is not ulleged, was convicted and sentenced for mis appropriating' public funds. Three shopmen on strike were convicted , nd sentenced for a siv.iko Hssault on a man who facceptcd employment In the shops. These n on, too, bore good reputations "and wore re garded aw rcpnn!dbiu, citizens. AVhen lir stands In the way of nuin's sel lish desires. It Is easy enough to nrgun th'at the law Is wrong; it is not difficult, sometimes, for men to justify for themselves defiance cf law which they would condemn In ntb,r men. But tho law must maintain ita supremacy If it'.ls country Is not to fulfill the doleful proph ecies of Old Wortd observers that such a democracy as nurs Is an experiment doomed to failure and disaster. Let this also be "noted in the cases hero cited: the courts have often laid themselves open to the Charge that only the poor and friendless are properly punished. So such criticism applies In these instances. The law was not, as It should not be. a re specter of persons. then, begin here, and such is Doyle's testi mony: It 1 an experience. At physical birth, Who can give us the secrets of human life more rapidly than the expanding soul Is ca pable ot grasping them? Is It more probable that thoee who have gone a stage farther In knowledge can flash back facts and truths that we can absorb and understand? Grant that the messages may come. Who Is able to read them and expound them so that they offer more of balm and understanding than we now have for "the painful riddle of the earth?" It was the triumphant ""cTtallcne ' of one of the early Christian Fathers that he believed "because It was Impossible." Spiritualism would, make It so casf to believe that nobody would be Interested In the Great Adventure. TrJ In practically every town and city of the i Bouth, and thla ia true despite the fact that tho agricultural South hae not yet reached i normal conditions. While, there Is still un certainty In the business world over the course Important .measures of, national .legislation, while there are still labor controversies to bo settled before the building activities can reach tho peak, nevertheless the faots compiled dem onstrate that there is abundance of capital for constructive enterprise and that confidence in the future is discounting present business tlliTt t'ultle. . " ' - ' . To Aahevllle this review of what Is being aciof.lpllshed ahotild'be pf especial Interest a't this time. There are several projects before tne people having to do with civic Improve ments the fate pf which will, in the long-range j eucct, slow down or drive forward the com j munlty's program of balanced growth. In the I ' near future Ashevillo will have placed befe're I It a plan of far-rcachlng changes in providing more room for traffic, in developing play grounds, ltr eliminating smoke. In enlargement of the water system. In construction of an other hotel, and strengthening the Chamber of Commerce. Some of theoo' things are so vital that they cannot be longer postponed without menace to health, property and city attractive-' nes. Carrying out the logically Indicated acheme of pi-ogress will call for money, nnd the question It not a few- minds is, Does Ashe vlZle, considered at a htislnrro corporation, warrant an increase of capita! stock? is the business big enough and docs- It have possi bilities sufficient to Justify the Investment nf more moni-y? . The answer tlven by the rapid building -this year of homes and business houses un mistakably .forecasts growth and prosperity in At-hcville provided the efforts for advance ment are governed by sound business Judg ment. The demand eiisis for residences, office j the city. Such a spirit Is the only one which The, Case Will Be Stated Tho response rnude by organizations civic, business and professional to the call for com tnjnlty. labor Ifl the building of a Greater Asbevllle Chamber jif Commerce constitutes a beginning of the campaign most auspicious. The algna are today that thejCharnber of Com merce dinner Monday evening will be a note worthy demonstration of the civic spirit arous ed and ready to endow its central town-bulld-lng agency with larger powers. Irj the now conception of Ashevllle'a varl otia organizations there is allowed no room for Jealousy. Eaoh club, association, board, has lta own function; all have the ambition to prac tise team work. In thi spirit Aahevllle will win. At the dinner Monday evening the place of the Greater Chamber of Commerce In Ashe- vllle's future will be set forth. Those who hne any misgivings concerning the timeli ness of tho campaign should make.lt a point to attend with open mind.

The colonel looked blank and asked, "Who" which Is you a talkln' 'bout?' The man answered. "No, Who'u 'ho. not which." "What you keep talkln' like a dern fool fer?" demanded the sol one! teatlly.

Spirit That Will Solve Community Problems Is the task nf widening Asheville's streets In the huslnese district one too gigantic for the city government and the people?

THESE PEOPLE strikers In their fight with other railroad managements. By Jamet Hay, Jr. Park Benjamin, millionaire pa tent lawyer and father-inrlaw of the late Enrico Caruso, died a few days ago, leaving a will that cut off his Ave childrea with a dollar each. He did this, he explained in bis last testament, becuuao all ot them had been guilty ot "long continued unduttful and unfilial conduct to ward me." Thi great naval expert's family tragedy bring to mind the case of a United States Senator who was an old man and worth many millions of dollars. He told a newspaper correspondent several yeara ago: You newspaper men are always publishing my picture and writing about my enormous wealth. I wish I had never nan the money. It has meant to me for the last twenty years nothing but sorrow and heait-breaking dia- APPiiPtmnk.V..ltM.uJna4&li4)twalue'-( hia sard mean to my childrep only a person to get money out or. , A hoe In one stroke was played My daughters are always quar-4 tne other day on the Salem, Mass. reling with me and among, them selves as to which one has been shrewd enough to beg the biggest check from me, and they do noth ing but sit around wondering wtien I will die and whether I will divide my millions equally between them. I get no loce from them. The hardest thing about money is not the accumulation of it in vast sums but the rearing of chil dren so that their characters will not be warped by Indulgence and their moral fibre sapped in an at mosphere of luxury. Alexander Graham Bell was a millionaire wiser than the Senator and l'ark Benjamin. His wealth brought nothing but happinesa to Ulmsalf and his children. But that was because he valued money properly, regarding it only a a. means of doing guod work and good works. Soft luxury had William Knowles Cooper, presi dent of the Rotary Club of Wash ington. D. C, says th lack of good roads leading out of Washington i3 largely responsible fov the high food prices in the National Capital. Because the city has so few good roads Into rural aections of Mary land and Virginia, some of the best trucking territory in the land, the farmer can not get their ro duce Into the markets promptly enough to sell them In fresh and palatable condition. The law of supply and demand does the rest. Small supplies of vegetables, big price's for them, but most of the neighboring farmers unable to pick Up a cent. All this Is anoth-r reminder that every mile of good roads built in Western North Carolina put more money Into the pocket of the farmer who pa.vs taxes for high way increases many times over no charms for him. The thing he Them what tuck yore money , took most pride in was that tne Of toll and tnrnii !!. and strife. . f.uilding. warehouses, stores, (garages, hos pitals, churches, and capital Is flowing out from its former hiding places to meet these need.

This diatribe served to suggest to sonie mischief maker that an Asheville "Blue Book" was boiti gotten op to contain the names of local people who are socially prominent. "Who's them?" de manded the colonel, "You means dep ty sheriffs an' policemen an' sich?" "No," replied the mischief maker. "It means people who are 1'JL society or exclusive like mem bers of the country clubs or the Asheville club er the I). A., etc The colonel pondered on this and then asked.

Across the two back yards and through the gate in the separating board fence ran a two plank walk aloag which Dr. Bell's little grandchildren ran to visit him and Mrs. Bell several times a day. .... There are thousands of Ameri can families who do not see the Importunesof intimate com nurl catlnn between their members but who look forward to the day when they will be "rich enough to have a telephone in the house." Dr. Bell, the inventor of the telephone, would not permit one in his home, and got his greatest happiness when, wrapped in an old sheepskin rug and smoking a hort black pipe, he could .spend the evening 1 with his children and j;r:iudlill dren in his library. B.-ciuse he knew that love was better than money, money did not destroy him and his home. The Greensboro News ran tin editorial a few days ago strongly intimmting that the men who are coming Into the Southern Railway shops In North Carolina as "strike breakers" are in fact strikers from Northern roads. If this is true, it should be of brain-bumping in terest to the Southern Railway strikers who have no quarrel w it it the Southern but are Josing their daily wages to help th? Northern Golf Club' links by Clement C. Desaulnlers, a one-armed player. So far as Is known, this is the first time in all the history of this ancient game that a one-armed player has scored a "one." But the achievement', unprece dented as It is, is not the only thing to be considered In thinking of Desanutnlers. The main point is that he has overcome what would seem to the ordinary man an insuperable obstacle In golf. He has learned to do with one arm what other aeldom do with two.' nor has he confined his proficiency to golf. He 1 an expert skater, hockey player and bowler. That is to say, the human frame, if animated by. a courageous heart, is so wonderfully constructed that, even when It is maimed, it is un beatable. Psychologists say that bodily afflictions are often blessings in disguise. The right sort of man, disliking to be pitied, goes out and excels In spite of his handicap. . .. - . Rear Admiral William A. Mof- fett. chief of the Naval Bureau of Aeronautics, has developed an engine so powerful and lasting that it can fly an aeroplane from New York to San Francisco and back five times without stopping at the rare of two miles a minute. In a test It has already run 260 hours, which means 30.000 miles, 4.000 miles more than the circumference of the earth. But even that record will soon be eclipsed. H. Gernback, writing in Science and. Invention, says we shall some day make dynamite and nitroglycerine provide power for engines as gasoline does today. Hi prediction will come true. Dr. Bell used to say that he foresaw the time when .odors would be used for power. This would not be much more wonderful than carry ing a whisper around the world on a wire. and 1$90. .when 408,488 were re ported in stood standing. Tha neak Was reached at that time as fig ures given at the encampment tbe following year showed a loss of approximately two thousand. Death hat caused a great fur row In the ranks of the old sol diers yearly lnce that time, until at present there are fewer than 93.OQ0 of the "boys in blue" left.
