As every one knows, we are en
deavoring lo give each week news
items untf things of like nature that
may be of help to the citizens of our
town and community. We, therefore,
have the high purpose of serving all
the people as best we may, and not
merely a part of them. It is not our
purpose to serve any one class or
classes, family or families, but ALL
the people. We have invited one and
all to co-ope rale with us in this un
dertaking and help us put it over in
good fashion.
Mr. Barrett, the big-hearted editor
of The Brevard News, is very much
interested in the progress not only of
Brevard and the lower end of the
county, but in the progress of all of
our people in every part of the coun
ty. To this task he is devoting him
self, without reserve, and is working
day and night for the people of this
county, irrespective of class or- cir
cumstances. And all of you know
that he is making one of the best
county papers it has ever been our
privilege to read or examine. .There
are other counties that would wel
come Mr. Barrett right now with his.
paper into their midst.
It was, indeed, the dawning of a
new day for the towij of Rosman
when Mr. Barrett invited us to use
one whole page of his paper each and
every week to boost our town and its
wonderful opportunities, and to tell
the world about our noble citizen
ship. We should grasp this opportu
nity with a tremendous grip and hold
on and work and toil on until some
fine day we may grow and prosper,
until our streets are paved and all
modern conveniences are installed in
our town.
Let's use the space more freely as
a broadcasting station through which
to scatter abroad the matters of in
terest and importance. Little inno
cent jokes that would provoke com
ment of a clean and wholesome na
ture, that would promote friendli
ness and good will may be publish
ed; but anything that might cause
bitterness and ill feeling will not be
acepted for publication in this sec
tion of the paper.
So give us your news items ? we
appreciate them ? H. F. W.
ROSMAN LOSES GOOD MAN
On Monday of this week at 5:30
o'clock, Mr. Joseph Stepp, one of
Bosnian's most respected and dearly
Deloved citizens, passed away at his
home here. He had only been ill for
n few days and hi3 death was a
a :\*ere .shock to the community.
Mr. Stepp was 78 years of age
and had lived at Rosman for the
past sixteen years. He was the son
of F. M. Stepp and was born and
reared near Black Mountain. He
was twice married and was the
father of four children, two of whom
arc dead and two living. His firsV
wife was Miss Polly V. Gudger, who
died many years ago. Mr. Stepp
was later married to "Miss Addie
Henderson who preceded him to
the grave some fourteen months ago. J
Mr. Stepp was one of those quiet,
unassuming gentlemen of which Ros
man abounds. He was honest, and J
thoroughly reliable, a man of which ,
any community can feel proud. He ,
will be greatly missed, but never can ,
be forgotten. He will live on in the
hearts of his friends until that day
when they shall be re-united ,V?ith
him on the other side of the cold
Jordan. ?'
Rev. H. F. Wright attended the
ministers conference at Six Mile, S. |
C., on Monday of this week. This
. conference embraces four associa
tions, in what is known as the
Piedmont section of South Carolina.
The meeting was held in the famous
Six Mile Baptist academy. Prof.
Richard Hallum, Jr.. is the efficient
principal. The Academy is doin?
good work.
F'OWELVILLE IS
THRIVING SUBURB
When we wrote up our magnili
eicnt little* city some clays ago, we
failed to say anything concerning the
southern division <JT Rosman. This
section is located on the south side
of the French Broad river, on the
highway, leading from Eastfork com
m inity to Rosman. Being, as it is,
settled un largely by Mr. Muck Pow
ell and (lis sons and sonsj-in-laws it'
seeing to us that this section of Ros
man could well afford to call itself
Powell vilje," with no bad effect.
Of course there ajV many other
good citizens located here a'nd sure
enough but a few other business ad
ditions would make it a real town.
But for the present we suppose the
people of the community are content
with being cons ireedfii i WWoPntW
with being considered citizens of
the city of Rosman.
ROSMAN LOCALS

In*f very good health of late. She is

of like nature.

we are making progress.
A large crowd of sorrowing
iriends attended the funeral of Mr.

Rev. II. F Wright after which in
terment took place in the Mount
Moriah cemetery.
Mr. Flem Glazener announced his
purpose of preaching at a certain
well known mountain camp, but has
not yet decided on the time. When
ever and wherever Mr. Glazener de
fines to make a public address, we
shall be on hand, because when it
rains sugar, our cup must be turned
right-side up.
IJncle Harvey Searcy has been
suffering much of late with rheuma
tism in his legs. We hope for his
early and complete recovery.
We see from The Pickens Sentinel
that South Carolina is to surface
treat the Pickens and Rosman high
way from Easlev to the foot of the
mountains. This will greatly assist
N'O Til C E
There is a law prohibiting people from parking on the
public highways, unless they clear the paving with
their cars. This law applies to stops even of short
duration. People stopping their cars on the high
ways should, in keeping with the law, drive to the side
of the road until their car is entirely clear of the
paving.
The law also provides a penalty for those who drive
into a main highway from an intersection or side road
without slowing down and blowing the horn.
On April 1 the State Law will be 45 miles the hour,
except around curves, ir. school zones and at road
crossings.
I intend to enforce : h . e laws regulating highway
traffic, and will appreciate the co-operation of the
public. Those who violate the law. however, may
expect to be arrested.

CHEM. STUDENTS
VISIT BIG PLANT
Mr. Black's chemistry class has
finally convinced .him t hut his. def
inition that "Chemistry is a science
that the tenth grade knows nothing
about" is absolutely incorrect.

progress which the class is making,
so much so that he carried it over
to Canton Friday to study the man

pap'^r mill of the world.
After a thorough examination and
study of the different processes that
the wood goes through before it is
made into paper, the bus driver in
sisted oil returning by way of Mt.

u:rns and exciting adventures, the
top was leached in time to see the

We were all glad to shake his

Brother King preached at Zion
Sunday morning, at Calvert in the
afternoon, and at Rosman again at
the evening service. His sermons
were all able, interesting and help
ful. The people seemed to hear him
gladly. Come again, Brother King,
the traveling public.. But what
seems that is also needed very badly
is the highway should be hardsur
facod or surface-treated or some
thing done, before the next winter
weather begins to improve the Ros
man end of this important highway.

Elmor White, of Asheville, was a
