FRIRAY, NOVEMBER 7!h, 1919 BREVARD INSTITUTE LEST WE FORGET A spirit of unrest pervades the at- mosphre from one end of the country to the other. Labor is dissatipfied and capital refuses to be reconciled to chan,Gred and chanjrin" conditions which this now ora has created. But who can e:;pect the “averacce n>an” to be on hi •, jrood behavior with the law- mckors at Washir.j^ton practically on a strike? The people of this country will not Mrs. B. W.

The erection of the nev/ school buildin.c: under the supervision of J. M. Blythe is rapidly being completed. It is something that has been needed for a number of years but until re cently did the t>atrons come together as a unit and say, “Our school must soon forjret the ropubHcan clamor last i enlarged in order that our child ren may have equal opportunities with other childrn of the county.” When the house is completed and painted and the grounds beautified we will have an ideal place. Our loca tion is so fixed by nature that it can be seen from all directions. The school building is so located until it is the iirst building to greet in ap pearance the way-passer as he enters tl'.e LiUlo K'ver Vallpy and the last lo bid him adieu as he parses out. The school has just completed the loru- needed'road running from the public road to the school house. The school work in general is pro gressing splendidly; the high school derarhnent being under the instruc- ; 01'. of J. L. Osteen, the intermediate under Mis A. M. Patton and the primary under Miss B. L. Allen. The attoivJance is the best it has ever boon in the histor: of the school. Evevy one is intnsivcly interested in making the school the ideal school of the county. The school expects to dedication program on the date spring, for an extra session of Con gress. It was nr.crued that President Wilson should have remained ai; home —away from the Pcace Conference— to not the Sixty-sixth Concrress in ac tion. From the first wise democrats asserted that the demand for the as sembling of the new Congress came from republican members v.ho wanted the patronage th.at goes with victory. The old adage that “the horse that pulls the i)low should havo the fodder” wa.^ quoted to thai purpose. Ths re publican niembors practically v.’ent “on strike” to accomplish their pur pose and President Wilr-on, in order to protcrt ,c,ov:'rnmental institutions, met the ropublii-an demand for an ex tra session and it has been “marking time” for the past six months. It had been so long since the re- publicai;3 v. ere ai the pie counter that they were huiur/y i'oi' 't. A casual glance at the r.eord shov.'s tha!; the one task rloi-v'd lo perfection and without delay by ihe republican leaders v. :; the of the "Iv-.aoe and Senate jobs. The republicans went further in that direction than ever before. Tbey even hired a num ber of negroes as elevator conduc tors in the Capitol, and in the Senate and House o?Tice buildings. One negro politician took the place of a v.-ounded soldier boy. A f.ne recortl to begin v.’itl:. Evidently, the propaganda for the extra session is now arising to torrient those Vvho forced it. O. K. —o— Popresentative <ix00d, republican, of Iowa, is chairman of the House committee on appropriafons. In his shoutin}? for an extra session of Con gress last spring he said: “A huge task confronts the Congress. The leg islative program for reconstruction embraces measures of treriendous im portance. 'ilonths vrill be required to enact leg'slation to unscramble the railroads and provide for their or-_ ganization on a solid and pubstantial basis.” Will ECmeone kindly point to any signs of an unscrambling of the railroads, or the passage of any mea sure of “tremendous importance” since the extraordinary session was convened? —o— The first thing the republican ma jority in Congress knovvS the people will begin to demand an investigation «f the investiators v;ho are spending the time and money to discover why wars are expensive, while at the same moment one set of republicans in the Senate are opposing the League of Nations and inviting further conflicts. —o— Perhaps the numerous Congres sional “investigations” into the con dact of the, war are, after all, only designed to satisfy republican cario sity as to how the democratic admin istration could achieve so maginificent a success in spite of the G. 0. P. in its persistence to oppose anything democratic. “Nothing succeeds like success.” funeral of a Mr. Li, who died a short time ago in Tientsin and who was a very wealthy man, the bereaved fam ily outdid themselves and made an imitation of the deceased gentleman’s Ford car to be burned at his grave.

Buc in the territory of the China- Ara:orican Trading Ctpmpany, Ford dealers in Tientsin, China, they have discovered a much better aid to the deceased over the rough places on the trip to the Promise(J Land. It is a custom of the Chinese to burn various kinds of effigies at the funeral ceremonies of the rich, the more wealthy the departed the more elaborate the figures burned over his grave. These effigies represent every manner of thing such as human fig ures, horses, sedan chairs, tables that were loaded with money, etc. The figures usually conform to some of these stereotyped fashions, but at the Eastatoe: East Fork: I I or my Deputy v^rill be at the following places for the purpose of collecting taxes, on the following dates.
