She had served long and well, and would be sadly missed by those who followed her precepts. Let it be said, however, that the good people of Marshall are not the kind to shirk a duty; so they picked up the pieces and stowed them away in the courthouse corridor, just outside the door marked "Ladies", until further arrangements could be made. They were not long in the making. To a prominent artist and sculptor living in the vicinity, and known as Brother Rat, went the task of shaping a new and late model to replace the fallen Justice. It was in keeping with our times, known as the Plastic Age, that Brother Rat chose to use that strong and lasting substance in the making of this work of art. So it seems that we will now have a more powerful and enduring Justice than ever before. Let us hope that this is true. May Lady Justice abide forever; may she not be bowled over by the first puff of hot air - or cold that blows, but withstand all the ill winds that assail her. May she not be "weighed in the balances and found wanting." Being blind to everything but the purpose for which she stands, may she "hang in there" with her broadsword and her scales as a reminder to us to always fight for the right, and to be -I 1 , L TV TheAt&vamveAccouat rUhiunNionaJHcink KIT" o News Record page 2 Zip fair and just in I t r i dealings with all r Jopl Sincerely, Ms. N.

WC Bank Has Successful-First Year A recession can be an op portunity as well as a problem, according to Samuel L. Blythe, president df Western Carolina Bank and Trust Company. Blythe should know. He runs a bank that opened its doors in October of 1974, just when the economy started to go sour. Tuesday, October 14, Western Carolina Bank celebrated a successful first year with an open house during business hours at its main office at 20 S. Pack Square in Asheville. "We weren't supposed to make money for three years," Blythe said. "But we showed a profit in the third month of business. Now we're com pletely out of the red. Ac cording to original projections made in more flush times, Western Carolina Bank was only to have total assets of $7,500,000 at the end of the first year. Those projections were shattered because the bank now has assets in excess of $12,800,000 with deposits of almost $10 million." During the first year, the bank opend a branch office In Waynesville. Other branches will be opened as soon as it is economically' feasible, Blythe said. Blythe attributes the bank's success to innovative banking services and to the way the bank was organized. Western Carolina Bank has been a leader in promoting Arthur Whiteside, WLOS-TV editorial director, was present to lend assistance as moderator and counselor. Much discussion centered upon the role of law en forcement and the court system's handling of such cases and the type of punish ment, or lack thereof, meted out. While definite problems were brought to the attention of the gathering, it was decided to postpone any action until a meeting of this same group with the elected county officials could be had. It is hoped that more citizens concerned with the future of our youth will be present along with the county com missioners, members of the sheriff's department, the three police departments, and county educators at the next meeting at the Madison County Court House Sunday, October 26 at 2:30.

During the opening last year, the bank offered free checking for a lifetime to charter customers. It opened over 1,700 accounts in the first month. There are now over 7,000 savings and checking accounts. Part of the an niversary celebration is of fering the same free checking plan that proved successful in the beginning. The concept upon which Western Carolina Bank was founded, Blythe said, was that the western region of the state needed a bank of its own. Western North Carolina contained fewer than five independent banks and none of these were regional banks, he said. The idea of the original investors was that the management of the bank would be in Western North Carolina, the decision-making State mathematics meeting At UDIC-A The North Carolina Council of Teachers of Mathematics will hold its annual conference in Western North Carolina for the first time. On October 17 and 18 there will be 76 sessions on all phases of Mathematics at the UNC-A campus in Asheville. Any teacher of a mathematics class, kin dergarten through college will find many sessions of Interest during the conference. This is a rare opportunity for teachers of this area and their support will determine any future meeting this far west. The Western North Carolina officers indicated to the NCCTM Board of Directors that teachers from Murphy and all points in the western part of the state have just as much right to a convenient conference as any teacher in the state. The state certification committee has made it possible for teachers to receive one unit credit toward renewal of certificate for attending the conference. The final decision is left to each school unit - city or county. A challeng e is extended to each principi 1, each superin tendent, and each Board of Education to make it possible for the teachers to attend without penalty. A good teacher M a growing teacher, and a goxl school unit is one that encourages participation in workshops and conferences for enrichment The teacher should not be expected to pay a substitute or to give up a presonal leave day and still have to pay registration fees ATTctlEi mi HCAItNO TI6T i.

"That's still the concept," Blythe said. "That idea, plus programs like checking without a service charge, proved popular with the people in this area, and helped us grow even during the worst recession since the I930's." Twelve incorporators - six from Asheville and six from other towns in the area started the bank by selling 215,000 shares of stock at $10 a share. They found a location for the main office in the Jackson building, now the Western Carolina Bank Building. This site was the former location of a stone cutting shop operated by the father of Thomas Wolfe, Asheville's most famous native son. The boarding house where Tom Wolfe grew up is a couple of blocks away. Coincidental, Blythe's and expenses to the con ference.
