THE BREVARD NEWS Published Every Wednesday by Entered at the Postoffice in Brevard, N. C., as Second Class Matter w James F. Barrett Bdite* SUBSCRIPTION RATES (Payable in Advance) One Ywe |2.00 Six Ir ths . . Three Months 1.00 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1930 FLAMING YOUTH OF THE COUNTY BLAZING THE | TRAIL FOR ADVANCEMENT. All Transylvania county ought to be proud of the young men and women who are laying plans for a greater Transylvania. While some people have been worried about the youth of today, our young people have been forging ahead in a man ner that stresses earnestness and determination for advancement. We are thinking just now of the two Students' Fairs to be staged in the , county ? the first in Brevard this Saturday, when the class in vocation al agriculture in the Brevard High School will give demonstration of their work; the other at Rosman on tjie^l6th, when the boys and girls of that good place will present, through the means of a fair, evidences of their training and great abiilty. There is inspiration for all who at tend these fairs. There is something so appealing, so strength-giving in its fine qualities, in the efforts of young people to get started in life that any man who is not deeply touched by these efforts is dead to the appeal of youth and youth's am bition. It is to be hoped that the eitizens of the town and cour.ty, both men and women, who are really interested in the young people will attend these events and encourage those fine fellows who are so nobly carrying on for the county. Then, too, there is much we older people can learn from these achievements of our young people. And while we singing the praises of heroic warriors, and wor ship at the feet of blubbering, bab bling politicians, let us pause and give some praise where it is due, in deed. Julian Glazener and John Corbin, teachers of vocational agri culture in the Brevard and Rosman schools, are doing something really worth while in the training of these Young Tar Heel Farmers. No other men in all the county's active forces are rendering the real service to the county that these men are giving through their work in training the future farmers of the county. Theirs is a work worth while, an influence that shall live always, so extensive that no man can even begin to cal culate its great worth. TURNING IN OF FALSE FIRE ALARMS DANGEROUS. Any man who will turn in a false fire alarm is a potential murderer. Every time firemen answer an alarm they run the risk of losing their lives or suffering injuries that would make them cripples for life. Every time the fire trucks and the automo biles of fire company officials go rushing through crowded districts, the lives of citizens along the way are endangered. There is sufficient risk when firemen must go tearing madly to extinguish a blazing build ing. These men, and the public, ought not ever be exposed to this danger through a false alarm. Should death result ?rom an event, then the man who turned in that false alarm is just as guilty of murder as though he had pointed a gun at some one and pul led the trigger which sent cold lead into the body of his victim. Fire is the most exciting thing in all life. A fire alarm causes more nervousness 'and fear than any other sound that can be sent out upon the still air. Whereever there is a crowd of people assembled in a room, and the fire alarm is sounded, there is great danger of a stampede, with dire results. If a man should be killed, or a woman should lose her life at such time, or a little child should be trampled under foot and its precious life snuffed out, the man who turned in such false fire alarm would be guilty of murder in its greatest degree. There is something wrong with any man who would tuun in a false fire alarm. He is light in the head, black at heart, cowardly in his soul, dwarf ed in mind, diseased in body, and ut terly void of any semblance of princi ple. He is disgrace to the man from whose lions he sprang, a bitter, black disappointment to the woman who brought him into the world, a menace to a community, a wart upon society, an imbecile, worse than a thief and not fit to become the valet to a train robber or a horse thief. He ought to be hung. 1 TO THE SCHOOL TEACHERS OF THIS GREAT COUNTY For the past thirty-fve years The Brevard News, under its several man agemets, has stood four-square to the county schools, teachers and pu pils. In the past four years, under the management of the present ed itor, it has been a great pleasure to do all that could be done in support ing the schools. Things are different, however, this year, and The Brevard News is not being permitted to work ii\ con junction with the schoos as in the years gone by. This is to be regret ted, and is regretted, no doubt, by many teachers and pupils, and cer tainly by The Brevard News. Be cause of the muddled condition of affairs prevailing in the school work for the past year, it has been hard to tell heads from tails in the whole shebang. The part that The Brevard News has been accustomed to take in support of the schools has been largely diminished on account of the positive refusal of the county super intendent of public instruction to give us any information about the public schools of the county. School children appreciate having their names published in the school honor roll. So far this year we have had none of these. We want all this news, and all other items that might be an inspiration to the boys and girls, or due recognition of the great work being done by the teach ers. We do not know, of course, just what "orders" may have been issued by the powerful powers that be concerning the co-operation of the teachers with The Brevard News in these matters. We do say this, however, and say it in the greatest of faith: The Brevard News will be right here, pulling and working for the public schools and the advance ment of the children of the county, long after the present school offic ials shall have passed from view on the stage of public activity. If you can do so without embar rassment, we should appreciate it very greatly if you would mail or send in the list of your honor rolls, or any other school news that would bo interesting to the children in the schools and to their parents. KINGS MOUNTAIN EVENT CAUSES SERIOUS THOUGHT. Celebration of the battle of Kings Mountain, turning point in the Rev olutionary War, was fittingly ob served Tuesday when fifty thousand people witnessed the exercises anc heard the president of the Unitec States sing the praises of the heroes who fought and won that great fight Carolinians are proud of the pari that their Sorbears played in winninc that war and establishing here a re public that stands head and shoul ders above all other nations of the world, in so far as government is concerned. | The one big, absorbing, impelling force in that fight and in all th< fights throughout the seven years? the force wich encouraged men or and on in an unequal struggle tc emerge at last victorious in th? great cause ,was the right of the in dividual citizen to a voice in his government. The president of the United States well said that Ameri. ca's danger is not to be found among foreign foes, but is lurking right here within our own confines One of the greatest dangers, if not actually THE great danger, is that practised by cheap poiticians whe steal elections and stuff ballot boxes with illegal ballots Such practise is direct violation of every urge and principle which actuated our fore fathers in their great fight. No reds from Russia, no socialists from across the seven seas, can ever do the harm to America that is be ing done by election crooks and thieves, who, by their thievery, rob the American citizens of the very thing for which the great Revolu tionary War was fought. How can there be any great respect for gov ernment when people feel that they are being governed by men who ob tained office through fraud? Some day our civilization must reach the place where an election thief will be looked upon as the men of the West used to look upon a horse thief. Such ought to be the case. A man who will steal another man's vote is far meaner than a man who would steal a horse, for he is stealing some thing far more valuable than a horse. If our structure ever falls it will be due entirely to the rotting of the foundation, a condition that will be brought about by the activities of our own citizens, as they bore away at the sills of the governmental structure, causing a decay which will bring the house down upon the heads of those who do the boring. See the Students Fair, witheut fail. The young men staging that event represent great possibiities for the Transylvania county soon to b?. MARY, THE MOTHER OF JESUS Next Sunday's Sunday School Lesson is about Mary, the Mother of Jesus. It is the most beautiful story ever written about a woman. All men who are not in some other Sunday School class are cordially invited to at tend the Men's Bible Class of the Brevard Methodist church, and hear our teacher, James F. Barrett, describe the life of this great woman who nursed and nurtured Our Saviour. C. O. ROBINSON, President, Men's Bible Class, Brevard Methodist Church.
