ONE CANNOT ALWAYS TELL WHAT OTHER FELLOW NEEDS, j These past months and years have ! brought about great changes in the condition of many people, as prevailed ' five, six, eight, ten, years ago. Men i we once knew as "big farmers" have | stood by and watched their lands sold i at public outcry to satisfy judgments ? and taxes. Business men whose posi- I tion seemed absolutely safe and se- 1 cure have gathered their personal | belongings and private letters from the files, as the trustee in bankruptcy took charge of the place. Men and women have packed their furniture, and sorrowfully left the home for ; which they had so long slaved and saved, as the mortgage company took over the premises. Women who were accustomed to spend hours in pre paring a dinner for happy guests are happy when they can have enough food for the next family meal ? Many touching incidents are wit nessed every day. Take the woman who entered a man's office and dis played a box of neckties that she had made. "I am not interested," said the busy man. "Thank you," said the woman, as she turned to go. Some thing in the look upon the woman's face as she heard the man's statement led him to inquire: "Does it mean a great deal to you to make a sale?" the man asked. "Well, sir," she replied in a brave effort to hide her emotions, "I haven't made a sale today, therefore, I haven't eaten today." Another woman rang the doorbell at a home where much scrubbing of the porch had just been done. The lady of the house came to the door. "May I show you some really beauti ful dresses?" the solicitor asked. "You may not, and I am not at all pleased that you tracked up my freshly wash ed porch," the lady of the house replied. "I am so sorry," said the solicitor, in a voice that carried with it every indication of good breeding and education. She turned to leave the house, tip-toeing, so as not to do any more damage than possible to the porch floor. Something in the drooped shoulders that were not drooped be fore the failure to make a sale struck the lady of the house with great force. "Come back for amoment, will you?'' she called to the retreating figure. "Come in and let us see what you have." Within a few minutes the lady of the house had the whole story from the woman who was selling dresses. The woman had a son in a tubercu lar hospital at Asheville; he had been there many, months. This mother had to pay the bill every Monday; she had to live herself, somehow; jobs were scarce, and the kind of work she had been doing was at a standstill, therefore, she was selling dresses, trom house to house, to make money with which to pay for her son's treat ment in the sanitarium. She was just a Mother, fighting, battling, for her boy. W e do not know just what tragedy lies behind the pleasant greeting of the one approaching us today. We ought to be considerate; we can at ieast be courteous; some of us could even afford to be kind. We may be entertaining angels unawares, you know, or it might be that parti cular testing time for us when we shall be reminded of our conduct. Some time there will come to us, each of us the powerful statement ? "I was hungry, and ye fed; I was naked, and ye clothed me; I was homeless, and ye took rae in." WORKWORK STARTS ON NEW BUILDING AT LEXINGTON. Members of the Junior Order in this section will be interested in the following editorial, appearing in the current issue of The Lexington Dis patch. It is a recital of the final sucaess of those who have long work ed for the completion of the Junior Order Home at Lexington. The editorial follows: Erection of the Sam F. Vance au ditorium at the Junior Home, work on which begins today, means much m?re than merely providing an as sembly place for the children and staff of the home, and fer those who visrit the place. Sudi a place of as sembly is badly needed. This building ?e?ns that the Lexington unit of the Junior Order ' Orphans Home will be a complete ' place of training for the children ] committed to Its care. It will provide I room for a complete high school, with , training in those practical arts upon ' which the Junior Order has laid stress in its care of the orphans ; It had been originally designed by seme of those in authority to shift the advanced high school pupils from , here to Tiffin to complete high school ' studies and supplementary training. | Erection of the Vance building means the definite passing of this idea. The Junior Home here will from now on j be able to do a fully rounded job in ! the training of those committed to j its care. Supt. W. M. Shuford has from the 1 beginning labored with his brethren in behalf of his desire for what is now coming to pass, and he is due j the thanks of everybody concerned,' and congratulations on the success of : his endeavors. Building of the new structure wiil ! be a material benefit to this communi- j ty during the next six or seven j months, and thereafter a continuing , and satisfying cultural satisfaction ' that will likewise shed material ad vantages. BREVARD MEN LOSE ONCE AGAIN IN THEIR EFFORT TO CLEAR THEIR NAMES. Men and women throughout the state were hurt when Judge Walter E. Moore could' not see his way clear to grant a new trial to Thos. H. Ship man, J. H. Pickelsimer, C. R. Mc Neely and Ralph R. Fisher. Judge Moore announced that he had receiv ed many appeals for the men, since it was announced that he was to hear the petition for a new trial. ; People are interested in this case ' and the men whose freedom are about to be taken from them, be cause of the fact that in all of the evidence presented against them there was never any indication or intima tion that in the sale of the county note, these men took one penny or profited personally by the act. People are interested in them be cause Governor Gardner, in grant ing a pardon to one Mr. Brewer, con victed in connection with the closing of a bank near Raleigh, stated that there was no evidence of moral tur pitude on the part of Brewer. The same applies in the case of the Bre a new hearing for the men because vard men. People were intensely interested in two members of the State Supreme court handed down opinions that there was no evidence in the case sufficient to go to the jury. Genuine, deep, heartfelt sorrow was caused by the announcement of Judge Moore that he found no cause for granting a new trial in the petition of the defendants. And this feeling is not confined to thi3 community alone. Informed men and women throughout the state are griev ed because these men must go on and on, suffering the agonies incident to the uncertainty of the fin al disposition of the case. Whatever consolation it )nay be to the men to know that thousands of ptople believe in their innocence, and are interesting themselves in be half of the defendants, is theirs with out stint or cost. Technical violation there may have been, but these thousands will never believe that these men are guilty of any criminal act in connection with the handling of the county's note. WHEAT ACREAGE ON THE INCREASE IN THE COUNTY. Threshing machines have been busy during the past several days, thresh ing the wheat crop of the county. Wheat growing is again on the in crease in Transylvania, yet it is nothing now as compared with har , vest time in the olden years, some citizens say. 'Gene Duckworth was telling a group in the barber shop one day this week about the time when wheat and rye were great crops here, and related how he had stood | at the Duckworth home and could see three threshing machines going at high speed at the same time in the Island Ford section alone. Transylvania county furnishes quite a quantity of seed rye to South Carolina, even now, and some of the leading farmers say that many hun dreds of bushels more could be sold each year. This county is rapidly re suming its former place as an agri cultural section much to the delight, of those leading citizens who have long contended that this ccommunity's greatest asset is its agricultural life. Larry McLendon, son of County farm agent L. L. McLendon of Dup lin County, was elected president of the Sts>te 4-H club organization for the coming year. Fred Huffman of Catawba County is building another 1,300-bushel ca pacity sweet potato storage house to add to the 2,000-bushel house he now has. Seventy-four producers sold over) SI, 000 worth of produce on the new. Guilford County curb market atj Greensboro on the opening day re-j cently. 1 T. C. GALLOWAY, SR., VISITS FRIENDS IN BREVARD . An interesting visitor in Brevard this week was Mr. T. C. Galioway, Sr., for the past quarter ox a century living in Goble, Oregon. He is now living in Jackson county, and has bought a large number of calves, and will prepare them for the market. Mr. Galloway is a native of this : section, and while he has enjoyed his business activities in the Great West, he says there is no p'.ace like these mountains ? for beauty, for peace, for living and for loving. He wants to see stock raising come back into its own here, and is of opinion that gen eral prosperity will not be experienc ed in our mountain counties until we go in for stock raising on a big scale. Mr. Galloway recalled the days of old, when every farmer had a herd of cattle, a drove of sheep and a pen of pigs. "Folks lived in those days," ' Mr. Galloway said, "and will begin to live again when such conditions are brought back to the community." Many of the older citizens remem ber Mr. Galloway, and these were in happy conversation with their old ! friend throughout the day Tuesday j while Mr. Galloway was a Brevard 1 visitor. TAX.

THE PRAYER CORNER (From, the filet of long ago) THE DIRECTING OF THE EARLY | MIND The words of a favorite writer of i mine on "The Directing of the Early Mind," so impress me that I want to share them with my readers, they arc so instructive. "A boy's best chance of growth is in associating with people already grown. If you want to make him a i poet, do not point him to the mode! | of the village rhymester, point him to j the greatest. It is always the voici;' of the Lord God that develops youri;f Adam. Those beings inferior to him self would not do ; those equal to him self would not do; those a little bet-| ter than himself would not do. Ifi you want him to progress, point him ! to a model at the top of the two trees ? the tree of knowledge and the tree of life. Let him climb for the highest apples, even though he gets a fall in the process. "The highest has more touch with the lowest than any intermediate has. The element of childhood remains in the greatest. The perfected soul gath ers up its past. It has many man sions in its nature, and it prepares a place for all surmounted stages. It j can understand the child better than the youth can, for it has a mansion for childhood ? which the youth has not. "The youth is ever pressing on ward; he fain would forget. But the mature soul goes back. It lives in sym pathy with the things beneath it There is no model so that which is planted at the summit of the hill." A PRAYER FOR THE DIRECTING OF THE EARLY MIND Parents of the coming generation, bring forth your children to Jesus! I speak not in the voice of the Churches; I spsak not in the name of the Creeds; I speak not in the phrase of religious revivalism ? I speak in the interest of the school master, in the interest of education, in the interest of social development. The mothers of Galilee made a shrewd choice for their model. They came not with their children to Peter or James or John; they sought not to kindle them by Andrew or Philip or Nathaniel. They went up to the highest ? to Jesus. Ye mothers of America ? Ye moth ers of Brevard, be not less shrewd than they! Would you kindle the in spiration of your children, beware of the touch to which you bring them. Do not say, They are very small lives, and therefore a very little will do it. Do not lead them to a wax match, or a taper, or a candle. Small lives need the greatest heat to fan them into flames. See for them nothing less than the sun ? bear them into the Presence of Jesus. They will learn all things from Him ? the beauties of the field, the pity of the heart, and the fervour or the mind. Caesar will not teach them such courage; Socrates will not show them such calmness; David will nci impress them with such chivalry: Moses will not inspire them with such meekness; Elijah will not imbue them with such earnestness; Daniel wil> not touch them with such manliness; Job will not nerve them with such patience; Paul will not fire them with such love. They will climb to the top of the mountain quicker than they will scale the ladder on a neighboring wall: bring them first to the mountain; point them to Jesus. Amen. ? C. D. C.
