It's Good Business To Check
Your Roof For 'Sneak Leaks'
How long has it been since
the roof over your head was
checked? Will the roof continue
to ward off the elements for
another year, or has the weather
beaten the "life" out of it?
Roofs too often are taken for
granted. Simply because a roof
has given good service for many
Wiley Brown, Peek Feed and
Grocery, and Swafford's Mark
et.
The project was dropped in
view of the opposition.
Employ Auditor
The board, which is required
by state law to have an annual
audit of its books, employed W
Bowen Henderson, of Asheville,
to make the audit for the fiscal
year ending June 30 at a fee
of $200.
Doyle DeHart, who told the
board he recently had bought
the pool room and restaurant
beer parlor on West Main street
from Bob Sanders and D. L.
Johnson, applied for, and was
granted, permission to move his
pool room from the second floor
of the building to the rear of
the beer parlor. He explained
that it Is necessary for him to
relinquish the upstairs in order
to reduce his rental expense,
j No action was taken on the
request of Dr. M. B H. Michal,
acting district health officer,
that the town contribute to the
; support of the district public
j health program.

FRANKLIN TOWNSHIP
Located on Jacobs Branch
years, home owners forget that
It is the most exposed part of
a house, subject to unremitting
attack. Hot summer suns bake
the roof, and rains cool it.
Winter's snows and ice freeze
it, and winds blowing from every
direction seek to rip and tear it.
Most parts of a house "scream"
for attention before it is too
late. Paint flakes and chips. The
furnace "acts up." The refriger
ator gets noisy. But a roof sil
ently does its job until weather
finally takes its toll. Then,
water seeps in.
If ignored, roofers warn that
moipture may rot the roof deck,
or the wood in the deck may
swell and buckle and tear the
roof covering. Often, water may
make its way inside the walls
and emerge far from the source
of the leak, cracking the plaster
and staining the waljpaper.
Unless a roof is replaced be
fore it ends its useful life, the
interior of the house may re
quire repairs. And the cost is
likely to exceed the price of a
new roof.
Patching on old roof seldom
pays. H. R. Snoke of the U. S.
Bureau o.f Standards states that
"a single apparent leak in a
badly weather roof is usually
the forerunner of other larger
leaks that will appear in a re
latively short time. . . . There
comes a time in the life of a
roof on every permanent struc
ture when it is no longer prac
ticable or economical to effect
repairs. When that time comes,
| re -roofing is the only solution."
| There is more to consider in
selecting a roof than just its
I initial cost. A roof not only
should provide trouble-free serv
ice for I many years, but also it
should beautify the home by its
rich texture and blended colors,
and protect the home from the
danger of sparks or flying emb
ers. The National Fire Protec
tion Association reports that
flammable roofs are a major
cause of fire and the principal
cause of conflagrations.
Ministers To Fight
Communism, Pagan
Influence In U. S.
Nine thousand ministers in
nineteen church denominations,
nation-wide, have banded togeth
er in a crusade known as Spir
itual Mobilization to combat the
peril to spiritual freedom be
cause of communist infiltrations
and due to a rising p^gan level
toward a mortal God state, ac
cording to announcement by Dr.
James W. Fifield, Jr., founder
and director of the organiza
tion.
This crusade for freedom
which recognizes man as a child
of Ood and as such master and
not slave of the state, sponsors
the return to the American way
of life with Its democratic pro
cess and constitutional govern
ment.
Its advisory committee Is
headed by such notables as Dr
Donald J. Cowling, former pres
idem of Carleton College; Rog
er W. Babson, the statistician;
Dr. Edgar J. Goodspeed, Bible
scholar and author; Dr. Rufus
B. von Kleinsmid, chancellor
University of Southern Cali
fornia; Alfred Noyes, poet; Dr
Robert Gordon Sproul, president
University of California; Dr.
Robert A. Millikan, president
California Institute of Tech
nology; Dr. Norman Vincent
Peale, clergyman; Albert W.
Hawkes, United States senator;
and others.
About 4,500 farm workers
were killed and approximately
300,000 farm workers were in
jured last year.

Typographical Errors?.
?Well, Here Are Few
The nation roared when Mrs.
Roosevelt's syndicated column
carried the line:
"After supper with the men,
we went back to dress."
Ever since the invention of
the printing press, typograph
ical errors and printed state
ments susceptible of different
interpretations have been the
cause of universal merriment, to
?ay nothing of a great amount
of personal distress.
A compendium of ludicrous
typographic errors and embar
rassing printed statements is
contained in an article by Mor
ton Sontiheimer in a recent is
sue of Good Housekeeping mag
azine. A few of the more glar
ing ones, culled from the press
of the country, follow:
"Only one of the old bloc
will be missing ? pretty Wini
fred Stanley of Buffalo. Her
seat disappeared in the New
York re-districting." .
"The members of St. John
Baptist Church met with the
pastor in bed . . . and had a
lovely meeting; reports were
good; amount $37.80."
"Sheer stockings designed for
dressy wear. But so serviceable
that lots of women wear noth
ing else." I
"Attractive room ? Everything
furnished. Venetian blonds"
"Dewdrops on freshly blown
noses."
"She had tight bridesmaids at
the ceremony."
'"Glen Collins was bent man."
"Congress probes high cost of
loving."
"The picture was posed by his
two-headed son." *
"The rain descends wjth the
force of water irom a fire
horse."
"And them asses (the masses t
believed him."
Then there was the literal
minded printer who received an
order over the telephone order
ing a ribbon for a funeral
wreath.
"I want it to read 'Rest in
Peace' on both sides," the cus
tomer directed.
And that's just what he got.
When the ribbon was delivered
it read:
"Rest in peace on both sides."
In North Carolina, the period
from 1880-1900 was the xera of
large scale logging which con
sumed most of the virgin long
leaf pine stands.
