"And I've had two pay raises
in only eight months! Til say
you can't beat Uncle Sam's Navy
YOU couldn't ask for a greater thrill than
that which a fellow gets when he comes
back home wearing a trim Navy uniform. The
folks crowd around. They all want to know
where you've been, what you've done. And
man, do you have stories to tell!
GREATEST LIFE IN THE WORLD
You're proud. And you should be. For you've
been leading the greatest life in the world.
And it's a thrill to tell about it, too. A thrill to
see the admiration in the eyes of the One and
Only Girl as you tell about the first time you
steered a Destroyer. Or handled a P.T. Boat
at more than 45 miles per hour. Or stepped
out in front of your shipmates to receive your
first promotion.
, And with that promotion came an increase
fn pay. And there were more to come. Second
Claaa. First Class, And then Chief Petty
Officer. Many might even go to Annapolis.
Or to Pensacola with the flying cadets!
Elating? You bet, and fun too. Something
doing all the time. Real he-man's stuff. Box
ing. Baseball. Football. Swimming. AND
MOVIES. .. previews, too!

Freak Sweet Potato
Raised By Mrs. Lakey
A large potato, weighing three
and a half pounds as large as a
child's head, and having a battle
scarred look has been exhibited
for the past week in the window
of the Franklin Press office. Mrs.
J. A. Lakey, of the Oak Grove
community, raised the potato on
the land of W. M. Breedlove, of
Etna. Mrs. Lakey, who works at
the Oak Grove school lunch room,
says that the variety is Texas
white, but not the improved Texas
white.
Sam Mendenhall stated that the
unusual appearance was caused by
the extreme drought early in the
season, which retarded the growth
of the potato, then the excessive
rains caused it to grow so fast it
just split open all around.'

Aquone Cemetery
Removal Completed By
Power Company
By CRAIG STEPP
On September 1, the Nantahala
Power and Light company started
removing the : Aquone cemetery
under the supervision of Gene
Raper of Lexington.
The undertakers who did the
work were W. T. Forsyth of
Andrews and Bill Moody of Bry
son City. They employed about 25
men and finished the job last,
Thursday, September 25 after re
moving about 476 bodies, which
had beeni buried from two to 100
years.
All were invited to attend the
taking up of their relatives' re
mains (a great number watched
the undertaking.) Some were griev
ed on account of the necessary re
moval, but they realized it had to
be done, i and were all satisfied in
the way in which it was done.
These undertakers furnished new
caskets and new boxes for each
body removed, and also a tomb
stone for the ones who did not
have any (which was about 75).
The greatest number were taken
to Kyle, and the next greatest
number were taken to the Fer
guson cemetery about two miles-
we si of Aquone.
The others were taken to An
drews, Franklin, Jotla, Burning
town, Red Marble, Warne, Tus
quittee, and Marble.
Where else in the world are there such
opportunities for thrill, for fun, for a future
as in Uncle Sam's Navy ?

AAI"dubon Club Member
Members of the Franklin Rotary
Club heard a short talk by W. G.
Templeton, of Statesville, at iht
regular "Wednesday luncheon on
October 1.
Mr. Templeton a member of
the Statesville Audubon bird club
pointed out several reasons to the
group for the establishment of ,
some type of bird protection in '
this locality, chief among, them be
ing that there were more unusual
birds' to be found in this section
than almost any other part of the
United States. The speaker em
phasized the material value of bird
protection! by auoting figures furn
ished by the department of Agri
culture which showed that many
birds were valued at $100 as in
sect destroyers, v
The establishment of winter feed-.
ing stations which afford an ex
cellent opportunity for ' the study
of birds close at hand was a way
Mi which bird devotees could con
tinue their hobby through the win
ter months, according to Mr. Tem
pleton. ; ' .
