SUBSCRIPTION RATES (Payable In Advance) One Year $2.00 ? Six Months 1.90, Thres Months .90 j Thursday, October 8, 1831 WELCOME TO BREVARD, TRANSYLVANIA TIMES! , This community was presented with a new newspaper last week in the ] form of The Transylvania Times, 1 edited by James T. Fain and C. M. Ogle as business manager, both of The Hender-sonville Times - News. Miss Alma Trowbridge is in charge of the local office maintained in the old Chamber of Commerce rooms in the Breese building. The paper is printed in Hendersonville, in the plant of The Times-News, and cir culated through the local office. The Brevard News joins the community in extending a most hearty welcome to this new enterprise. The new paper comes upon the scene at a time when every construc tive influence is needed here as never before. The town and county stand now at its lowest ebb since the county was organized, and every worth-while contribution will mean more just now than at any other time in the coun ty's history. The task confronting the citizens is a stupendous one, and nothing less than the combined, con certed, loyai and patriotic service of all influences can save the day. Insofar as the commercial life of the community is concerned, business is at low ebb. It has been on the gradual decline for the past five years, or ever since the bursting of the real estate boom, when the citi zens here suffered such tremendous losses. The decline has been so rapid that now at least half the business houses in town are vacant, and all this property is dead timber for the owners. A large number of dwelling houses stand idle and unoccoupied, taxes and insurance eattng up all value of such property. The tax list of advertised property now being run is the largest in the county's history. On the first Mon day in November the tax collector will sell the homes of hundreds of people of the county. Much of the 1920 taxes remain unpaid, and thou sands of dollars of 1930 taxes are uncollected and uncollectable. Both county and town are long in default on interest on bonds, to say nothing of bond principal and notes that re main unpaid, and stand in default. The spiritual life of the commun ity is at low ebb, as evidenced by the revelations made in a recent church survey, when it was shown that one out of five attend church regularly; one out of four attend Sunday School, and only one-third of the church members attend church. There is a great need of a converted leadership, for, after all is said and done, a com munity life is just what the leaders in the community make it. Notwithstanding all those setbacks, difficulties and obstacles, no other community in all of this great section of the state has a brighter future than that facing Transylvania coun ty. Reason for this well grounded belief is found in the network of highways which makes this section truly favored, to say nothing of the industrial and agricultural possibili ties here. All that we need to do is to prepare for a greatly increased population which will, within the next few years, require every house that is now vacant and every busi ness house that is now unoccupied, and many more in addition. Tha spirit of unselfish devotion to the community, with harmonious ac tion of all agencies, strengthened by good will and and good fellowship, will bring prosperity and progress to this county in bounteous measure. That Messrs. Fain and- Ogle will devote their new paper to this patri otic purpose is assured in their in troductory announcement made in tlflj first issue of ? The Transylvania Times. Now that the teachers have been paid practically all of their back sal aries, general rejoicing is the order of the da^. It is also appropriate for the citizens to again express ap preciation for the loyal and patient manner in which the teachers have dealt with the county in its extremity. COUNTY TALKING ABOUT SPEECH OF YOUNG JORDAN Transylvania county has expressed much pride in the part played in the Wallace Davis trial, which occupied | th*~ Federal Court for several weeks, ? by the son of a former citizen of this j county. J. Y. Jordan, Jr., son of the'1 Federal court clerk, was a member of the Davis counsel, and although the youngest lawyer on the defense forces, his appeal to the jury was pronounced a masterpiece, and is giv en no small part in obtaining the verdict of acquittaf. The fact that the government was represented by four excellent lawyers, whoso names have long stood at the head of the list of able attorneys, gave added importance to the victory won by the defense. Members of the Transylvania County Bar association have made flattering comments upon the part played by young Mr. Jordan, while friends of the Jordan family express keen appreciation of the rapidly growing fame of J. Y. Jordan, Jr. LET'S HAVE COMPETITION IN THIS CHARITY WORK I I Word comes from a fine lady who 1 reads The Brevard News, that car ries a splendid suggestion. She was [ thinking about all the words of praise which have been spoken for the wom en who are canning food for "char ! ity," and of the great work which has jbeen done by the classes in agricul i ture and home economics in the Bre jvard and Rosman schools. "A little competition from the men would be helpful," this good woman : writes, and then suggests methods ! by which the man may help in this charity work. Fine pigs could be grown into fat hogs on the waste ma terial about the home: the apples that are going to waste, acorns, po tatoes, cabbage, and so on that will go to waste. With this material, she suggests, a hog could be fattened and meat and lard procured for the char ! ity store. "Just think of the nourishment for | little children that could be obtained through using this stuff which other wise will go to waste," the lady ' remarks. 1 The lady is not so well pleased with the number of idle men and boys to be seen, and suggests offering a prize for the largest pile of wood, or kindl ing, that is cut and stacked by boys and men. "This wood cutting would prepare fuel for the home, or to be given to the charity officials for dis tribution to those without fuel this winter, and how much better off the men and boys would be in cutting and ( stacking this wood instead of hanging : around street corners telling stories, or talking about their neighbors." i And for the women: "How about knitting?" she asks. "Think of the numbers of pairs of stockings that could be knit by the women during . the next five weeks, and turned over to the charity agency for distribution to the poor!" The women found great delight in knitting during the war for the soldiers. Can there not be found the same happiness in a j service for needy children?" she asks. ! "If all of us would interest our ' selves in useful work, instead of : spending so much time in idleness and in idle gossip and knocking and fault-finding, how much happier we would be!'* j Think it over, friends. The sug gestion is fine. I ; TRIBUTE TO THE MEMORY OF A GOOD MAN Editor The Brevard News: It was truly a grief-stricken com imunity on Thursday, September 10, i when news was spread telling of the ' death of G. L. Glazener. It was in 'his pure, clean, Christian life as hus | band, father and citizen that his | virtues were reflected so clearly and I beautifully. He was a noble father, and sought to rear his children in the fear and admonition of the Lord, training them for usefulness in life, and they loved him dearly. He was a devoted husband, and leaves to mourn his loss a wife and two grief-stricken children, namely, Mrs. M. C. Whitmire and W. D. Glazener. Also two brothers and two sisters, W. R. Glazener of Texas; Elzie Glazener of Brevard; Mrs. P. . A. Aiken, of Brevard and Mrs. Mary Fletcher, of Canton. As a citizen, Mr. Glazener stood for everything good and progressive. His motto was: Better conditions, the de velopment of his country and the up lift of humanity. He was every ready to help the needy. His kindness and hospitality endeared him to all who knew him. His good judgment and sincerity gave him the confidence of not only his community, but the en tire county. He bore his trials. with patience, and always met every one j with a smile. Truly, a wonderful, good man is gone ? one whom every-! body loved, and when I say that | Transylvania county has proudced ( few such saintly men I am sure that kinsmen, church brother and neigh bor will say "amen."

A LITTLE STORY WITH A MORAL | A naturalist divided an aquarium , w-ith a partition of clear glass. He ; put a lusty bass in one section and i minnows in the other. Every time a minnow approached I the glass parition tha bass would make a dart at the minnow. j After three days of fruitless- at tempt which netted him nothing but j bruises, he ceased his efforts and j subsisted on the food that was drop ped in. j Then the naturalist removed the glass partition. The minnows swam ; all around the bass but he did not j strike at a single one. He was thor j oughly sold on the idea that busi I ness was bad. Moral: When business is bad take j another shot at the glass partition, j Maybe it is not there.
