cific rule.i to be followed in super
vised study of students by the

render the pupils under his charge
the greatest service by teaching

i-.gv student need supervised direc
tion from the teacher in learning the
j first principles of how to study.

SEAL SALE SHOWS
BREVARD SPIRIT
In sponsoring the tuberculosis
Christmas seal sale, now in progress
at the local postoffice booth, as well
as in all sections of the county, of
ficials of the sale deserve the sup
port of every one in their praise
worthy efforts to make this annual
event a success. The daily sales at
the booth are reported very satis
factory, and it is the expectation of
the county committee, and the many
others who are so loyally supporting
the movement with their assistance,
that the final count of the proceeds
of the sale will exceed that of any
previous year.
The only organization so far re
ported to have over-sold their quota
of seals is the Children of the Con
federacy, who sold 30 cents over the
! $5 quota in one day's sale at the
booth. The first bond of $5 was
I sold to Mayor T. \V. Whitmire, and
? it is expected that several other pub
lic spirited individuals and corpora
tions of the town wll support the
movement by buying bonds of similar
or larger denomination. T. H.
Shipman, of the Brevard Banking
company, is another 55 bond pur
chaser.
There is nothing that a penny can
purchase and receive more true value
than in the tiny tuberculosis Christ
mas seal, the annual sale of which
is not only observed locally and
throughout the state, but is a na
tional event, the funds of which help
to protect the health of citizens by
lessening the deaths from tubercu
losis and promote health by educat
ing the public that tuberculosis is
preventable and curable. Every rcul
bought is a weapon against ...:
dread disease, and also aids in finan
cing the school health program for
undernourished children.
A grc&t big Red Automobile will be
given away free at DeLong's Store.
