a BREVARD TROUNCED BY SYLVA HI ELEVEN Brevard Blue Dsvila took a 19 to 0 i i trouncing here Friday at the hands of the strong Sylva High eleven. The Devils' line did not respond with tna pep and efficiency that was so desperately needed in order to curb the skillful Captain Sutton, Sylva quarterback, and his teammates. Brevard kicked to Sylva, for the opening play of the game. Sylva was downed on her 30 yard line. On the last down Sylva punted and English of Brevard took it. Schachner plung ed through for a ten yard gain. The first quarter was decidedly in favoi of the locals for they advanced stead ily down the field until they were . within easy scoring distance, when % fumbled and Sylva recovered the j ?y'va started marching up the field, at one time breaking away for a 25 yard gain, when the quarter ended. Sutton, Sylva quarterback, stepped A over the line for a touchdown early V m the second quarter; however he fc failed to gain the extra point. Bre vard received and made steady gains ^^ntil within scoring distance, when ^^Hiey made their second disastrous Himble; Sylva punted for the open ^Bield. Brevard recovered the punt and ?made a short gain after Erwin M^caught a neat pass. In the early part of the third quar ^ ter Clayton tore away for a 25 yard run after catching a long forward pass. Upon gaining scoring territory, Brevard fumbled to Sylva. Capt Sutton tossed a short pass to Green, and he raced away for a 40 yard run and a touchdown. Sylva made the extra point by a short pass from Sut ton to Bryson and the third quarter ended with Brevard getting the little end of a 13-0 score. Thomas, Sylva fullback, plowed through the local defense from Bre vard's four yard line for the final touchdown in the fourth quarter. Clayton, for Brevard, netted a pretty 25 yard gain after catching a short pass from Schachner. Syiva held firmly and the game ended 19-0, Sylva. Sutton, Wilson and Green starred for the sylva eleven, while Huggins, Clayton and Schachner were out standing for the Blue Devi! aggrega tion.

AMUSEMENT Which Shall It Be? The whole drift of the times is to break down Sunday as Holy Day, and the tide is so strong in this di rection that it is a very serious question whether it can be success fully resisted. But if not, what will bo the results? If The Lord's D/iy goes as a Holy Day, will not the Church go with it? Can religious services, can the public worship of Almighty God be maintained without it? It is absolutely certain i; this day cannot be preserved as Holy, no other day can. But aside from any church obliga tion or Divine command on thw point, in case this grows, what is to save people from the lowest deep of demoralization, of sin and crime? Fcr six days now the world has its sweep ; men and women are given up, as a rule, to its cares, interests and pleas ures. Sunday comes, and there is a let up, the mind is turned to some thing else, something higher, better, nobler. Those who attend the ser vices of the Sanctuary are reminded that they have souls to save, a spirit ual nature to cultivate; reminded that there is a future state and a | judgment to come; reminded that there are interests, infinitely above the pleasure and fashion, the riches, hopes and ambitions of earth. The primary object of Sunday is worship and if it be said that rest is of prio? obligation, then it is rest for the pur pose of worship. Sunday rest is for i Sunday worship. ' But what if the Sunday perishes as a Holy Day? What if converted into a day of physical rest only, or amusement? Must not the public wor ship cease and all of those sacred in- j fluences perish? Hear the words of J some eminent men: Robert Gollyer, a noted preacher in his day on leaving Chicago for New York confessed his mistake in suggesting during his early ministry that people might 1 worship God as acceptably in their homes and in the fields and in the woods and in the mountains, and by the seashore, as in the sanctuary. "The drift of it all," he said, "was to slay faith and to touch with par alysis the nerve of any great en deavor." Teachings which their prop agations now acknowledge to have been erroneous, have this paralyzing effect. For its moral advantage then we need the Sabbath with line upon | line, precept upon precept in Holy Temple. We need to turn away busy feet from the holy ground of the Lord's Day, not treading it irrever- , ently in the dust. If the institution for which we are pleading is not preserved, the habit | of worship will perish sooner or later and that would be an irreparable loss. Former United States Senator Hoan, of Massachusetts, a promin ent Unitarian, once said, "We best maintain the country we love, and the state of which we are a part, and of whose government we have our share of personal responsibility, by a con stant attendance on the public and social worship of God. I believe it to be the interest of the country, of the town, and of the individual foui i hat tho habit be not abandoned." Similarly President Woodrow Wilson [ spoke, 'It has always seemed to mc that the habit of church going some how lay at the foundation of stead fast character, and the maintenance of the standards of life." , Let Christian people look this mat- 1 ter fairly in the face. The Christian religion cannot be maintained with out its visible institutions, and the most imnortant of these is "The Lord's Day," because upon its pres ervation as a Holy Day the worship ? of the church itself depends, yet all the influences of the world are against it, and numbers play into the hands of the world in this res pect, who arei called Christians. The very fact that so many now consider half day worship sufficient, and the service of the Lord irksome, and the day gloomy because requiring relig ious duties and exercises is an evi dence of the loss of devotion, and of : a right appreciation of the design of the day. What can be our faith or ;love or interest in regard to the soul's health and God's law and hon or, if the services of the sanctuary 'are irksome. ! A PRAYER FOR THE I DAY OF REST ' 0 Thou Who dwellest not in Tem ples made with hands, we ever stand within the courts of Thy' glorious presence only we open now the gates of our poor praise. Thou has en riched this day of rest. 0 Lord, with , Thy choicest gifts of peace, and lo, 1 Thou Unforgetting God, its record is before Thee: for ages moistened with penitential tears, and illumined with glad hopes, and hallowed by the in- 1 numerable prayers of faithful and saintly men and women. In^this our day, may the Churches of The Holy One seek Thee still in spirit and truth; may we also enter in and find our rest, being of otic heart and mind and serving Thee ' with a wakeful and humble joy. Teach us how we may converse with Thee, for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness. We are naked and without disguise beforp i Thee. 0 hide not Thyself from us, behind our ignorance and sin, may we at least, in this Thine hour, shake the sluggish clouds of tense and self that cling around our souls, and strenuously open our whole nature to the breath of Thy Free Spirit, and the healthful sunshine of Thy Grace. Let the Divine Image of the Son of God visit us with power, driving out with the chastisement of penitence all obtruding passions that profane The i Temple of Our Hearts, and turn in 1 to a place of traffic, the native House of Prayer. 0 God of Glory, God of Grace, let J not the things which are spiritually discerned be foolishness unto us through the blindness of our con- ' science. Thou knowest the thoughts | of our wisdom that they are vain. , Take them from us and bid them j vanish away, lost in that wisdom ( from above, which is revealed only to the pure in heart. Not unto us, 0 I Lord, not unto us, but unto Thee, be . [ every thought of praise, Amen. r\ /i II | Lake Toxaway News l Mrs. D. T.

He must not taKe nay for being helpful- or courteous. A good Boy Scout literally radi ates courtesy. When he meets a lady on the street, he tips his cap and in a crowded building or stteol ca>- he \ offers her his seat, even if he is compelled to stand or leave. Mis many acts of courtesy blend , into his daily life. From the mjnutc he arises in the morning until he re tires at night, his thoughts are gentlemanly and ius acts kind and . considerate. This law of Scoutdom brings to the front the Scout's motto, "Do a good turn daily," and when he performs 1 this good turn, he refuses all tips or any form of pay. The Scout carries his courtesy into the life of sports; on the foot ball field, baseball diamond or basket- . ball court, he aids a fallen opponent to his feet, or protects him opponent." from injury when he is down and ! out. This is not affectation or some- j thing to make the crowds feel good. 1 It is courtesy, consideration, gen- 1 tlemanliness ? can call it what you , ' will, it is playing the game as a man < who is a man plays it. An -fhlete.! who is also a good sport is likewise , courteous. j 1 A "Good Turn" is an extra kind- , 1 ness, something more than courtesy , ' and manners require. The hard test of Scout is in his doing his acts of i ' good manners and courtesy in all j 1 quiteness and without boasting. In meeting a woman or child, a ! man should as a matter of course al- J ways make way for her. In walking ' in traffic or crowded sidewalks the ! man should walk on the side nearest j fraffic, so as to protect. All the many acts due women and ; children by men are not always ten- j dered. As a scout, set the example with a smile. The age old custom of the men on a scinking ship, removing all the wo men and children to safety before they attempt to save themselves is a striking example of bravery and courteousy. Even when a women enters the room a scot if he is seated, jumps to his feet and remains standing un til the lady is seated. He finds as whether or not he can help her in any way before he is seated. As in days of old the knights rush ed to aid the poor and helpless so does the Scout in his everyday life. He may not have a shining armor or a faithful steed, but the heart is still the same and there are many ways in which he may be of service to the weak and needy. Good manners and courtesy arc vital in business and social life. Men and boys should respect the j nvi I E*st Fork News j Jackie Frost finished up his job Saturday night. Ali the pretty flow ors he didn't have the heart to k.l when he visited us a few weeks ago he sneaked in and bit Saturday night. Not even the Last Rose of summer is left. Although we've had a nice time to do up our fall work sonic of us arc still rushing around gathering up farm produce that can't stand a great deal of cold weater. Since we last wrote news for the paper we've had some visitors in our section. Mr. and Mrs. Van Whitmire of Lyman, S. C., visited the formers parents Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Whit mire. Miss Kate Gillespie spent the week end at her home here returning to Lake Toxaway on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. B. McGuire were East Fork visitors over the week end. A. M. and Earl White and Everett Whitmire of Rosman spent Sunday afternoon at the Gravely home with Bob Gravely, Billie Dockins and Jack Gillespie. Thats about all the folks we know about visiting, in our section and there hasn't been any body on a bip Irunk or anything in the last day or so. Perhaps there will be some ex :itment by next week then well have something to U1I. womanhood and childhood of today ind the Scout tries to set the example is he ventures upon the "Sea of Life" with a cheerful smile a tip of his hat, lending a helping hand here md a considerate deed there. FORTESQUE GROWS GIANT CABBAGES R. E. Fortesque, well kn.wn Rich Mountain farmer was exhibiting two giant cabbages at The New? office Saturday. Combined weigh: ol the two cabbages tipped the Ec.ilt. j! 33 pounds. The larger of the two '.as found to be four feet and eight in. ies in circumference upon actual meas urement, weighing 18 pounds. The cabbage heads were firm, well moulded and rich in color and flavor. Mr. Fortesque gave the cabbages to the editor and he can attest with much pleasure as to their delicious flavor. The ground in which the cabbages were grown is only about 6 inches deep above solid rock, Mr. Fortesque said, and he reported that he was taking several larger heads to the Greenvilel fair for exhibition. Many farmers were commenting upon their size and quality, Saturday and it is said that they were among the largest, ever to be grown in this section.

Of course YOU WANT YOUR BOY TO WIN IP any one told you that you were making it needlessly hard for your boy or your It little daughter to get on in school you wouldn't believe it could be true. But are you giving your child or your children the good light they need for their home studying? In many of the schools light is still poor, so it is especially important to provide good . light where children's home work is done. See that the lamps they use are of sufficient wattage to give plenty of light and that there can be no glare in their eyes, either direct or reflected. Poor light makes concentration difficult, brings on fatigue and drowsiness quickly, is damaging to young eyes, and is often responsible for faulty posture, which is a danger to be guarded against. For a limited time you can have cartons of genuine Mazda 60-watt lamps, or any other size, delivered to your home, and pay for them in two months along with your light bill.
