Transylvania is booming. Big
tannery going up, meaning eni-
I^loyment for many; and now comes
the glad tiilings from Toxaway of
the one and one-lialf million dollar
develoinneiit in lumber operations.
Wliat more could we wish for in
the way of material prosj^erity for
this county. Yet other good things
will follow in their wake.
Changing News’ Mame.
Marshall News-Record; The vSyl
van Valley News is no more but
up from its grave rises the Brevard
News, one of the mo.st u]vto-date
]irogre.s'sive weeklies in this state.
Canton Observer: The Sylvan
Valley News at Brevard recenth
changed its name to the Brevard
News, liditor Hollowell is giving
his county and town a .splenlid
newspaper and in return the peo
ple ought to give him their loyal
support.
American Press: The name of
the Sylvan X'alley News of Bre
vard has been changed to the lire-
vard News; lulitor Hollowell be
lieving that the new name would
be more suitable for the paper.
TOXAWAY’S RELIGIOUS GROWTH
Frank Y. Wilbanks when in Bro-
vurd from Toxaway Tuesday stated
that the Toxaway Baptist church
had decided to have preaching on
tho second and fourth Sunday in
stead of once a month as heretofon?
and in order to be in closer toneh
with bis pastoral work H»*v. W. H.
Nicholson has moved from Saj)
])hire to Oakland, a jioint about
three miles from Toxaway.
This week the News visits l.ddO
homes in Transylvania and abroad
where it does not make its regular
weekly visits. It will arouse the

The News is ])leased to know
that the Brc-vard Club has taken
uj) the (jiiestion of advertising tUis
section by boC)klets and otherwise.
We have plenty of good things
worth extra fine })ublicity and the
committees having the matter in
hand should not lo.se any time in
getting the booklets before^ pros
pective summer visitors. This sec
tion and its conditions are sujterb
for many things, but only a small
portion of the world knows it.
The Jackson County Journal has
resumed its campaign for a countv
farm life school. It argues that
the county is primarily an agricul
tural one; that the deserted county
seat buildings at Webster would
be suitable for this purpose and
that an extra levy of less than 1
per cent would cinck the institu
tion. A good thing the Journal is
gunning for and it would even re
dound to the benefit of Transylva
nia. May success crown the
Journal’s efTorts.
The Asheville Times continues
to qualify as a Brevard booster as
will be seen from an editorial entl-
ing it to be a good thing, the law
states i)lainly that men who wish to
form an association must sign the
articles of association, and said sig
nature mnstbe acknowledged, before
a notary public or other ollicial auth
orized to administer oaths. Except
for a few minutes on Monday, .Jan
nary I was not at the meeting ot
the association and took no active
])art in the alleged formation. 1
certainly did not sign any articles
of agreement and if there are others
whose names appear in the list whr
did not sign and whose signatures
were not attested, I would advisi
them to investigate matters at once

WHY THAT LAME BACK?
That morning lameness—thos»
sharp pains when bending or lift
ing, make work a burden and res
impossible. Don’t be handicap])et
by a bad back—look to your kic
nevs. You will make no mistaK'
by tollowing this man's example.
W. Davis, farmer, Waynesville,
N. C., says: “My back boiUered ii.
off and on for years. It was so soi
and lame that I could hardly sto
and it was impossible for me
lift. When I got np suddenly,
specks came before my eyes, blui
ing my sight. Nothing did me ai
good until I tried Doan’s Kidnt
Pills They soon gave me relief ai
I know I can always depend «
them.”

“For four years my w’ife suffered

to be alone. She fell off in weight

dollars, but nothing helj)ed Mrs.
Sah^s gain a particle. She kept get

teared the end w’as in sight when
neighbors told us about Tanlac.
“It may be hard to believe, but
r wo bottles of Tanlac have worked
^uch a change in my wife that she

In the light of our experience, and hav

The best watch value ever brought into Transylvania
county, or North Carolina for that matter.
We have recently had the Waltham Watch Company
make us up some watches with the name “The Brevard” on
the dial and plate. It is 7-jewel, has safety steel barrel, patent
Bragruet hair-spring and patent detachable balance staff with
solid nickel case and is a dandy. It’s worth more but we are
selling them for $5.00. This is better than sending to the
mail order house or going to Asheville.
Come in and look it over.
