COMMISSION'S WILL
GIVE FULL SUPPORT
The movement to eliminate suf
fering insofar as possible in Tran
sylvania county this winter as a
result of idleness and a lull in
business that has been in the
I formative stage for some time,
began assuming definite shape
Monday when county commission
ers assembled in regular session,’
authorized the County Welfare
Board to proceed along lines that
will be necessary to provide for
families in needy circumstances.
BOARD WILL HELP
Commissioners will throw their
wholehearted support and co-op
eration with that of the welfare
organization. The action means
a broad departure from the pro
cedure that has characterized the
work along relief lines in the
county in the past. Individuals
have made it a practice to appear
before the commission board a^'
their meetings tbe fir.st of the
month and present cases involv
ing their own individual circum
stances and commissioners have
consequently been handicapped in
the transaction of routine and
other affairs coming under their
jurisdiction. With the welfare
board handling these eases, the
matter of providing relief to wor
thy individuals and families w'ill
have been greatly simplified and
a load will have been lifted from
the shoulders of the commission-
surance association.

THE TRANSYLVANIA TIMES IS NORTH CAROLINA’S FASTEST
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
GROWING WEEKLY PAPER AND MERITS CONCERTED SUPPORT
The Transylvania Times has
come to be recognized as the
fastest growing weekly news
paper in North Carolina.
There is a reason for every
thing and the case of The
Times is no exception. The
Times is a real newspaper in
every sense of the word. It
has the interests of its readers,
the town of Brevard, the coun,-
ty of Transylvania and, in fact,
this entire section, at heart
first and always and will con-,
tinue to work towai'd that end.
With this thought in mind the
Times • will continue to move
along in'the same encouraging
pace as has characterized its
progress since the initial issue.
The Times is growing faster
than any other weekly news
paper in this state and there
must be a reason for this
meteoric growth. There is:
the Times is a real newspaper.
Now, as a real newspaper.
The Times proposes to print all
the news of interest to resi
dents of Brevard and this im
mediate vicinity. Assembling
news over a wide area is no
easy task and time is required
to mold such an organization
and have it take definite shape.
This .is being done as rapidly
as it is humanly possible and
if any area that The Times
.should serve is being neglected
in the wav of news coverage
at present, we can only re
quest that our friends bear
with us until, such arrange
ments as are necessary can be
made.
The Times, wants, above all,
to print a newspaper its sub
scribers and others will ap
preciate and talk about. The
Times wants its friends to be
able to point to it with pride
and discuss favorably. The
management wants The Times
to ♦ be thoroughly read, not
skimmed over and consigned
to the wastebasket and forgot
ten 30 minutes later in the
routine of the day’s duties.
The Times has a mission to ful
fill. And The Times intend^
to fulfill the mission it, or any
real, alive, wide-awake news
paper, should.
The Times is justly proud of
the progress it has made in less
than two months. The response
has been indeed encouraging
and, very candidly, exceeded all
expectations, attesting the fact
the time was highly opportune
and the field wide open for a.
good, weekly publication in this
territory. The Times does not
intend to disappoint those who
have shown faith in it from the
vpr-i- beginning. From week to
week it will be improved until
it meets with the hearty ap
proval of the most fastidious
newspaper reader in it’s field.
Many minds are necessary to
make 'a successful newspaper
and The Times, in realizing
this, invites suggestions for
betterment. Constructive crit
icism will be accepted in the
.spirit in which it is extended.
If you have something to say
we want to offer you an op
portunity to say it. You will
find our columns open . You
are invited to make use of The
Times as a sort of open forum.
