( Cut courtesy Citizen ) CORBIN ENDORSES CITIZEN'S' PLANS 1 ( Continued from page one) preachers as to we farmers. Mr. Glazener and I are soon to se lect a working- committee composed of ten farmers, ten farm women, ten each from other occupations to help us push the program. If you realize how much this might mean to our sec tion surely you will offer your services to help. These two men from Minne sota are to open the program in Ashe ville, Dec. 14, by telling how it has worked in other places. I believe bus iness people should offer their cars and go themselves and carry a car load of farmers to this meeting to see if there is a way for all to pull together and make this a better place in which to live. Brevard people are offering their cars for this occasion and I am going to ask that Rosman be as gen erous and far-seeing as any people. Host ? Those are my grandmother's ashes over there in the corner. Guest ? Then the poor soul has passed on? Host ? Heavens, no. She's just too to hunt for an ash tray. TO CLOSE 50 -CENT PROPOSITION SOON ( Continued from page one) time. | W?< are truly grateful to all the hundreds of people who have respond ! ed to this offer, and placed their names on our list, which gives to the county a widely circulated, paid-in-ad | vance newspaper that should be most appealing to the merchant who really wants to sell his merchandise. And speaking of merchants, the man who fails or refuses to talk to the people about his merchandise, and tell them what he has to offer them, cannot ex pect very much patronage from the people. At least, this is the testimony of successful business men. But aside from that, if you haven't taken advantage of this special FIF TY CENT offer, please do so NOW. as it must be brought to a close at an early date. Jones ?
