GUDGER The Highest Point In Waynesville Citizens of ue to us the Waynesville contin round figures of 3,- 000 feet when speaking of the alti tude of our beautiful city. It is easy to understand in such a fast moving world, that little attention should be paid to actual figures on such matters, but here are the facts on Waynesville's altitude: Some thirty or more years ago, I spent a summer vacation grading the front of the Gudger property and putting in a stone wall. One day, Mr. Shoolbred (a civil engin eer long resident and highly es teemed in our community) came out South Main Street and up our drive running a line of levels. He stopped at the steps to Mrs. Quin lan's porch and finished settig down figures in his notebook. Then he turned to me with a smile and said, "I suppose that you wonder what I am doing." I replied that he was evidently running a line of levels, but, from what point and for what purpose, I did not know. Then he said that "The town authorities wish to know the elevation of the highest point in Waynesville, and have employed me to run a line Heads Fliers quit it ci in a Cl,!d place until they are be sti'vet Li!t(r-Uplcr" of levels from the "bench mark" at the Railroad Station to the top of the Gudger hill. When I iget the matter figured out, I will let you know the elevation of your old home place." A "bench mark," it must be ex plained, is a definitely determined and absolutely reliable elevation mark. Such an elevation standard is ascertained not by the use of an aneroid or a mercurial barometer, with all the errors consequent upon variations of temperature, humid ity of air, and blowing of winds. But it is figured out by beginning with some other bench mark estab lished by a line of railroad levels from the seaeost, or by levels of the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. There is the least possible source of error here. A few days later Mr. Shoolbred met me down town and said, "I have figured my levels and have checked everything, and the ele vation of the Gudger hill is 2802 feet above sea level. It is the high, est spot in Waynesville." Here then is the matter definitely established. . v ........ j, .. ,v; ..- w. ........ ..wliV-- HOSPITAL NEWS Miss Nellie Gillett, of Canton, operative case, is better.

Cooked Tomatoes Tomatoes are so rich in vitamin C that even when cooked they still supply fair quantities. Now that meats are rationed it is necessary to use more vegetables for the main hot dish. For luncheon or supper tomatoes baked in the skins with a stuffing of bread crumbs or levt-over cereal, seasoned with meat drippings, onions or savory herbs is an ap petizing dish. For variety toma toes may be cut in half, pile the stuffing on top and bake. Fried tomatoes on toast, rice, or spaghetti are first rate, espe cially with tomato gravy. For tomato gravy brown flour in the drippings left in the skillet after the tomatoes are fried and add hot water or milk. Another tempting "headlinor" for lunch is broiled tomato on toast. Sprinkle a little cheese on top before putting the tomato under the broiler and serve with a strip of crisp bacon or salt pork. Regarding storage, if tomatoes are bought or picked from the owner's garden and the ice box will not hold them, they should be stored in as cool a place as poss ible, and spread out.

Employment Service, that no person should be hired or solicit the services of anyone whose most recent employ ment was in an essential activity, unless such worker presents either a statement of availability from his most recent employer or a re ferral card from the Employment Service. Workers can save much time and trouble by getting these neces sary papers tilled out before going into new fields for work, it was said. Several Haywood men are los ing valuable time in other areas because of failure to cany along proper papers. Detailed informa tion can be had at the employment service office. A number of people from de fense a l eas have recently come to this community and been employ ed. In some instances they failed to bring their proper statements of availability, and this has caused both employee and employer extra trouble.

He and his family are buying War Bonds . . . culti vating a Victory Garden . . . giving time to Civilian Defense... blood to the Red Cross. They're conserving the rubber in their automobile tires . . . stretching their gasoline ration to the limit. And this wartime summer, neither he nor any member of his family will make a single unnecessary trip by train. They all know that the railroads have their hands full taking care of vital military traffic, members of the armed forces on furlough, civilians traveling on essential war busi ness, and those who have to travel for some necessary reason. So, they figure correctly and patriotically that, by not traveling on a train this summer unless it is absolutely necessary, they can make another real contribution to the war effort; help speed Victory and the return of Peace; strike another blow for freedom.
