WHO IS HOOVER?
WHEN'ce CAME THE MAN?
On e of our subscribers asked us to
?lvf ? some information as to the Mr.
W'oover now waging battle for nom
nation for the. presidency on the
republican ticket. We are unable to
giw the information, and so we pass
the question on to our readers. In
presenting the question as to "Who
Is Hoover?" we fell into some kind
of a trance; perpetrated a piece of
alleged poetry, which you may read
if you want to, or throw it away if
it pleases you. It is bum poetry,
or near-poetry, if you in your mag
nanimous nature desire to show
your charitable inclination by term
ing it such.
Anyhow, here is the fool thing,
and if you know any more about
Hoover than we do, please give us
your information, so we can satisfy
our subscriber's curiosity:
Who, Who, Who, Is Hoover ? -
The chubby-faced boy of fame?
Who knows this man Hoover,
Or whence the Big Boy came?
Is he a British nobleman,
Traveling- in disguise,
Or is lie a Turkish Sultan
Throwing dust in America's eyes?
He's ii real good dam builder,
Many of the people say ? -
But is he a damn good runner
is the main question today.
'Xis said he drove the bread-wagon
Throughout the big World War,
But can he drive an elephant
In keeping with, the G. A. R.
tie d ctatcd our meatless days,
And bossed every American home;
But can he do the same thing
With such as the Teapot Dome?
But Who is this Herbert Hoover?
With his high and mighty air?
Of course, he rationed our sugar,
But can he handle Sinclair?
Who is he, this man Hoover,
For whom politicians toil?
'Tis said he measured our bread,
But can he measure Oil?
.Who, Oh! \yho is Hoover,
The worry of this campaign?
Who the devil is he,
We ask you again and again?
BIGGEST TAX PAYER
STRONG FOR SCHOOLS.
in all that tias ui'ii said anil wit
ten about the sche !-s of the county,
the cost attached . hereto, and ad
visability of reducing the length of
the term and the ? ,)position regis
tered against such i.ction, no state
ment is of more ; unificance than
that made by Mr. Jo-. S. Silversteen
to ,u group of friends, one day this
week. Some one had reported that
Mr. Silversteen was in favor of cut
ting the term to G months.
"X never dreamed of such a
thing,' Mr. Silversteen was saying,
"I think it would be a calamity, and
the very worst thing this county
could do," he continued. With even
stronger emphasis, the manufacturer
went further and vowed "the only
change I am in favor of making in
the school term is to place the high
?? ill", i* hack on the nine months
basis."
.* .ftaao i that Mi'. Silver
steen is the county's biggest tax
payer, this statement has real sig
nificance. Then, as one of hia
friends pointed out, this is the last
?year that Mr. Sllversteen's children
will be in the public schools, as his
youngest is now a senior, still great
er significance can be attached to
his stand on the school matter.
Thesf facts are published because
of tin- report being circulated that ?
Mr. Silversteen is in favor of a six-':
month:-' .school term. However much
one mu.v disagree with him on the j
question of the schools, there is
notjii'i'- but admiration for the pub
lic I wh'.ih pi>?ni|' : . j
tax-payer in the county to stand
^ squarely for his convictions on the '
Kwhen this stand calls for the '
t by him of several thnu?an<is|
rs for school purposes.

Vound and outbound shipments to

In releasing this figure ,C. K.
ocharff, general traffic director of

iial ii covered the movement of
>9,5 7 carloads of freight totaling
;}?ri0,2(>3,t>0S pounds, us well as
i f, J 52,2-1 7 pounds of less-than-ear
:?iil freight. ,
"Our freight hill wa.s considerably
, ii.lis'r last year than in any previous
:ii in our history," Mr. Scharff
<i. "yet the pioport cisate cost per
immobile was lower because our

? th the efficiency of present trans
?rtaiion agencies. effected large

"This tremendous freight move

"nnskWing this huge, volume it is ob

MISS McGEHEE SINGS
PRAISES OF FLORIDA
Friends hero of Miss Fanaie Mc
Gehce, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.
T. McGehee, of Macon, Ga., and who
have the r summer home in Brevard,
vv'll be interested in the following
clipping taken from a recent issue
of The Macon Telegraph :
"I am really afraid to mention
"!iv! ida again tor fear some one will
hink nr.' a real estate agent in dis
?ni'se. when I don't even own a grain
of that precious sand, but Fannie
WcG'heo, who graduated from La
'icr in February, and was voted the
:v. artest girl in her class, is visiting
n Jacksonville and has boen in so
many places and seen so many inter
esting things whie down there, that
Florida must be referred to again. |
X < . w, if you've been to Silver .
S). lings, just skip over this little '
chat. Fannie went there, and as
customary, went out on the lake in
th? small boat. This boat had a
?'ass bottom and at places, the lake
.- 80 feet deep and you can see the
?v.irtlcs and many varieties of fish on
lit- bottom as if they were only in
i brook, as the water is clear as a
crystal. Fannie says that if you go
wii; on a pretty "sunshiny" day the
nushine makes rainbows on the wa
<-r surface, it is truly a magic lake.
She went also to the ever interesting
city. St. Augustine, the oldest city
the United States."
Specialist ? I assure you, niadame,
course will make an entirely dif
f rent woman out of you.
Client's Husband ? That settles it. j
I -ike it, Margaret ? never mind the 1
? ->st.
*"? ' 1 1 m iii > Spinster ? When I was
?orn, my father made me a promise
?> give me ten pounds every birth- 1
? y. and I have one hundred ninety !

'??itiir to pay you the balance. _ !i

"INSIDE" INI-'OKMATION
When you cut a dress wth a nor- 1
mal shoulder seam and set-in sleeves ,
.oe that the back section is half an
lH'h longer across the shoulder than;
,ne front, section. This extra miner
al is eased into the seam to give
imm for the shoulder blades, if a
person is slightly round-shouldered it
i< particularly necessary to make
this allowance.
Leg bands on children's rompers
or bloomers should never impede cir
culation, For this reason eliistic
hands are not advised. '.Cloth bands
are better. Tluy should be wide
. nough to slide up the leg five inches

U. cause they must be so loose it ;s
necessary to make the legs of the

grow from bad to worse.
1 am in favor of education, but
it has got to be- given, our children at
less cost. Abraham Lincoln got his
educat'on, became a lawyer and one
of the greatest presidents of the
United States, but history shows that
he studied by the light of a pine
knot and what Schools he attended,
he walked to and there are many of
the most successful men in Transvl
vania county who received their edu
cation at little cost to their parents
or to others, but who, being eager to
learn overcame all obstacles and
' educated themselves
I W.h'le we are teaching our ohil
Idren io solve problems in Algebra
and Geometry, (which they will
?never need in later life, except as a
1 mind training, or if tlv-v become
? teachers), it would be well to toacl>
; them that most essential branch of
education, namely, self-reliance and
th'.1 abil ty to overcome obstacles and
I to realize in their early youth that
i they are not going to have either the
[pleasures or profits of this life hand
led, thom on a silver platter, nor
brought to their , doors by automo
| biles, but that they will have to get.
lout and work and hustle f.v thim
i selves, if they are going to succeed.
My earnest hope and s neerp ad
| vice 'to the people of our county is,
therefore, to gut together and by
'united effort aid our county contmiS*
jsioners in formulating, some plan to
raise the money necessary to meet
our bills and also to cut down every
! possible expense in the management
I of our county and every diviS'on
i thereof.

POPULAR YOUNG MAN
DIES AT SHELBY HOME
? ?
I Many friends in the community of
Brevard Hennessa, a former resident
of Brevard, regretted to learn of his
J death, which occurred at his home in
I Shelby, monday night, after a short
I illness of pneumonia. Funeral ser
j vices were held at Shelby Wednes
' day morning.
; Young Hennessa was an all-State
football player and attained wide
reputation as a star athlete. He was
a star half back at State College in
1926. He was a student at Brevard
Institute a number of years ago, and
made many friends during his stay
in the community.
Mr. Hennessa, who was married
