An Excellent Record
For Hazelwood School ,
Patrons, and teachers of the Hazelwood
elementary school are bound to be highly
pleased with the rating just given that insti
tution by the state. A rating of one does not
come every, day, , nor to. every school. Nor does
it come, just by making application. It only
comes when deserved, and that is what the
Hazelwood school has done, " '
The supervisor here from Raleigh making
the Checkup said that no school is better than
the principal. A. true fact, which is another
way of saying that Dawren.ee Leatherwood
has worked with his faculty of 21 in attaining
an accomplishment which only one other
school west of Charlotte has made. In fact,
the list of such schools in that high category
in the state last year only reached a total of
2i. :
At a rule very little is heard from the gram
mar schools of the state, but after all, they
are the ones that lay the educational founda
tion for the students. And the Hazelwood
school is proving its accomplishments.

'I Came Not To ("ail The Righteous. But
Sinners!"
. Bishop Booth of Vermont lived for a much Short
or time than many of us would have liked, but while
it lasted it was profoundly Christian.
After he died his nurse said to a 'friend, "I know
where the Bishop is tonight. His soul has gone to
.hell." '
. The friend was too shocked to speak, but then
the nurse continued, "That's the only place he can
be happy; there's such work to do there.''
1 To be sure, that was the Spirit of Jesus. He
sought out hell. He hungered for sinful men.
- "I Came Not To Call The Righteous. But
Sinners!"
Some More (Jood Yet To Come
. Traffic officers point out that travel on the
4-mile paved link of the Parkway at Soco
Gap to Mile-High-Overlook is breaking all
expectations.
The week-end travel to that mile high spot
that gives an unobstructed view of the Smok
ies and the Balsams, is becoming one of 'the
favorite drives of this entire area. People who
make the trip are usually warm in their
praise of the many scenic views it affords.
As we pointed out once before, it is impos
sible in mere words to accurately describe
that new link in the Parkway.
Take it from us, however, "you ain't seen
nothing until you get to drive all the way
(11 miles) out to Heintooga." That will be the
scenic drive of drives, just wait and see.

A Valuable Industry
. The livestock show, featuring; beef and
dairy cattle here this week-end should at
tract a large crowd of interested spectators.
In the first place, the cattle to be shown
merit their being displayed in public. Few
counties in the south have a better all-round
showing of beef and dairy cattle than is found
right here in Haywood.
In the second place, the dairying and beef
Jjattle industry means about three million
dollars per year for the, farmers of this coun
ty. That is a sizable surnT and one which
would be readily felt if curtailed.
3 The encouraging factor in both the beef
and dairy industry is the steady progress
"Which has been made in recent years. Farm
ers, businessmen, and cattle experts have
been working hand-in-hand through the
years to bring the two phases of our agricul
tural life up to its present high standard.
Reaching the peak in quality, as well as
type of production as found here in Haywood
is not just a "happen so." It is a result of
hard work, forethought, and cooperation of
all agencies combined.
Haywood county may well be proud of the
achievements it has made in the cattle world,
and to add to that is the fact that every effort
is being made to attain even greater achieve
ments. That is one of the reasons why the
Chamber of Commerce is cooeprating with
.the cattlemen in sponsoring this two-day
show this week-end.
; The indications are that the show will be
worth the cost and effort, as Haywood gets a
good close-up look at the animals which are
making it at the top in the South.
Government For The Lazy
We have come to the time in the history of
the race when the man who works and saves,
and who by self-denial and thrift accumulates
for himself an estate that he may live in his
old age an independent life and be a burden
on no one, is taxed to pay for the subsistence
of the profligate and the spend-thrift and the
waster and the loafer. We have come, to a
time in our history where we give allowances
to people for not working. We have put a
premium upon laziness, and hung up a re
ward for the fellow who refuses to look after
himself and has waited for Uncle Sam to do
it. One by one the fallacy of the old copy book
maxims is being revealed. We are getting a
way from the old-fashioned idea that work is
good for man and that thrift and self-denial
and frugality are virtues that should be fost
ered. They were good enough for poor, ignor
ant old-fashioned grandfather, but out of
place with the new day that has somehow
dawned.

THINK PIECE North Carolina
business offices this week are be
ing flooded w:th folders from the
U. S. Chamber of Commerce. They
show by graph the increasing debt
of the Federal Government.
In 1869, it was 2.2 billion dol
lars; 1919, $25.2 billion; 1929,
$16.6 billion; 1939, $39.9 billion;
and 1951, $255 billion. The folder
points out that the average fam
ily's sharo of this debt is $5,640.
This is enough to get us average
folks to thinking, but the shock is
emphasized on the folder by a
quotation from Lenin, Russia's
planner: "We shall force the Uni
ted States to spend itself into de
struction." Scared?
STEEL Shortage of steel is just
beginning. If that bridge in your
section of the State is not well
