Henderson, one of our commissionei's, in last week’s issue of The Transylvania Times reauests the citizens to ex press their vieAvs regarding the tax situation in our county as outlined by him in his letter to Mr. Galloway.

PAUL HARTSELL Plans are now in the making and almost complete for a great meeting at the Brevard Baptist church, beginning Sunday night, December 11. The church will ob- .serve Church Week, with Rev. W. H. Ford, Rev. James Ivey and others on the program. These meetings will be held each evening next week at 7:15 in the church auditorium. Church problems of local and Avorld-wlde interest Avill be discussed by local men and visitors. Mr. Ford, pas tor of the Hendersonville Baptist church, and Mr. Ivey, of "West Asheville, have been secured. We hope to have Mr. Olin. recently of China, present to address us. The purpose of the meeting is that the church as a whole may be brought into more vital and spiritual touch with the problems that confront us today. The pro gram is so arranged that each in dividual may make his contribu tion to the discussion of problems presented. The main purpose of the meeting is to bring about a better understanding, a fuller fel lowship, and a greater unity in the things concerning the Lord’s work here in our midst. It is important that every mem ber make arrangements to attend each night. Young and old are urged to attend. By coming and entering into this meeting^ you will be making your contribution to the greatest institution in your community, the church. The church is the most vital organiza tion Ave have in the community or the Avorld. What would be the value of property here without a church? What would inspire u.s morally and spiritually were the church removed? What would be the result if all ministers should leave, the town and county? What would become of the church if no one gave it service, thought and sacrifice? The church must set the spiritual standards. It must in spire hope and point the way back to faith in God and men before these other vexing and distressing problems confronting us can be solved. Come help make a better church and you will build a better world. Members of other Baptist churches in the county are invit ed. All others are welcome. place among the counties of state until this is done. As Mr. Hendei*son has stated our representative should knoAV what the citizenship of 'Our 'coun ty wants before the legislature meets. I would suggest that a mass meeting be called at the courthouse, 'with a representative body from every community in our county, and there have an open discussion on this vital ques tion. Frankly, I think the time has come when the people should give expression on vital questions, es pecially when our homes and the happiness of our families are at stake. Respeetfullv, A. B. GALLOWAY'.
