I I THISDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 19?5 HENDERSONVILLE ANSWERS. ileixlersonville News. Thus speaks an advertisement dis tributed bt a Waynesville real tsi.w man: "By January, 1926, Waynesville v. Ill have mor paved streets and high ways than any other town ia We it em Nortl ( arolina except!', A?ht- ville." The Ne. could marshall .c.,0' 1 p.'. ple plus v ho would be wiliin.r to par ticipate in lining' up the tap- measure against the paving in th" mountain cities just to test the authenticity of the "realestate talk." Waynesville has on a g',o street paving progTam and the city ha: some beautiful streets, but it ap pears to Thu News that in view of the iact that Waynesville is a smaller city than Hendcrsonville and that Hendersonville has on s uiogiam covering all its main strvetj". Way nesville would have to pave the p'g iails all the way up Eagles Nes to match Hendersonville. Main streets is right. We read somewhere that a certain governor was turning up red clay with a silver spade. Evidently trying to fill mud hole in Horseshoe Road to Bre vard or maybe the detours. Also that prominent Georgians were driving a golden spike into the Ashc- ville water supply or was iti the hopcl for Hendersonville yearly payroll. But the "real estate talk" brought these same folks with big pocket books over to good old Haywood where fhey inve-ted in Waynesvil'e black loam. They must believe that 'pig trails" are mor? productive thn 'T3ull"-evards. This week The Carolina Mountain eer is mailing out subscription expi ration notices to all delinquent sub scribers. There are many on the list who have taken this paper many years and some very personal friends. But we must treat everyone alike and as we have no "pets" we wKi cut off every subscription that is not paid in advance without furttur notice. We consider this paper easiiy worth the small price charged for it and "ye" editor needs money occa sionally just the same as anyone els? ERROR CORRECTED. In a large display ad in last week's paper of the Haywood Garage, one ion Chassis delivery ' wis quoted at $1,900, when it- should have been $1,090. One thousand and nine.y dollars.

BOARD Of A meeting is scheduled to be held next Tuesday niight of all citizens of this city who are interested in the future growth and prosperity of this section. It is planned to perfect a reel Chamber of Commerce or to re-oi ganize the old Board of Trade. Tic meeting is announced in another column. The Board of Trade (as recently published in the columns of in paper) has done a great deal of go-! for Waynesville in the past and the- town could have hardly done without it. During the early part of this year about nine thousand dollars was rats ed through the efforts of this organ ization for the purpose of purcha.v ing rights of way for the railroad of the Suncrest Lumber Company- Many citizens of limited means do nated most liberally for this pur jose nnd many tracts of land were donated (it. is said) outright by land holders for rights of way. The Carolina Mountaineer iinvite the committee to use the columns of this paper to publish and itemiod statement the names of those who donated cash and land, the amount that has been paid in and that which has not been collected. . In justice to those who so liber ally donated until it actually hurt, ire feel that this statement should appear at once. The columns of this paper are al ways open (free of charge) for any itemized statement of this nature. Credit ought to be given where it is deserved and especially those who voluntarily gave rights of way. We feel rare that confidence can bettor be established by frank state seats to the public in all matter appertaining to public donations which have for their ultimata object the making of our beautiful city a better place In which to lire. The building and loan associations in North Carolina show a gain last year of $14,000,000.00 in assets. They loaned $25,000,000.00 to bui.d 8.000 homes to house 40,000 of vir citizens. In the past five years these asso ciations show a gain in assets from $29,000,000.00 to $70,000,00.00. This is a splendid record, and one in which we should feel much pride. However, when we compare North Carolina with other states in this particular, we find she falls far short of the position she should oc cupy. We find there are fifteen other states with a greater invest ment in building and loan stock. Twelve of these show a greater pain in assets in 1924, and three state? each show a gain greater than the total investment in building and loan in North Carolina. We find also that twenty states have a larger invest ment per capita than does North Carolina, and the per capita invest ment of ten of these is more than double that of North Carolina. Of the more than two and a half million population in this state only 81,474 of this number were patrons of these great agencies of thrift and l;ome building. Of this number prob ably 80 are either borrowers or anticipate borrowing in the future for the purpose of paying for homes. It is evident therefore that the building and loan associations in North Carolina so far have failed tc properly inform the public at large of the splendid advantage of building and loan stock as a medium for the investment of the savings cf tne people. No group of financial institutions ;n the state can boast of a cleaner record of stability than cat. our building and loan association , and the average interest yield on money invested in these thous-h Mr. C.WV' Miller was " tool young to Join the forces of .the .Con federate troops, he was a member of the Home Guard in Jackson eoun- ty. Mr. Miller was eighteen years of age jt the close of the Civil War. To him the borrows of that war pro- ent themselves- as a vivid picture. He ha 3 seen the awful realities of in ternecine war, where brother . fought against brother, and not only where the flower of our young manhood was slain, but where widows and orphans were made, and where mil lions upon untold millons of dollar worth of property was destroyed in the ruthless path of war. During Reconstruction days it was courage ous men like Mr. Miller that enabled the great Southland to rebuild from her ashes. The heroic survivors of the great struggle were optimistic, they knew there was a great future for them and their country and there dream was a new South, far sur passing the old, and Mr. Miller has lived to see the fulfillment of that dream. With little more than a vision and the couaage of a brave soldier with which to begin the rebuilding of the new South, they began aaeu to build their fortune. After the close of the war, Mr. Miller entered into the saddle and harness business, and has been a steady worker at this trade since. a remarkaDie and unusual Iact u that he has always had his es tablishment in Waynesville, and for many years he has been located in one of Waynesvitle's old land marks. which was built possibly twenty-five years before the Civil War. At present day a harness shop is rarely found since the invention of automobiles, but it seems that Mr. Miller continues to operate his es tablishment successfully. On October 22, 1874 Mr. Miller was married to Miss Fannie Willis -f New Bern, and to them was born six children: David and Clarence, Jr., the popular owners of Miller Brothers Grocery Store, Miss Roberta, Mrs. C. i. Kirkpatrick, Mrs. George A. Niles, of Griffin, Ga. and Miss Elizabeth, who died several, years ago. Mr. Miller has an attractive stucco residence at the entersection of Hav wood and Gudger. streets. t more the adoption of the fore going ordinance and- resolution, this the raid day or September, ltfgo.

OF Be it ordained and resolved by the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of the Town of Waynesville: Section 1. That the Town of Way nesville, pursuant to an Act of the General Assembly of North Carolina, ratified December 14, 1921, entitled "An Act relating to Local Improve ments in the Town of Waynesville," and other laws authorizing the same, shall grade, and shall pave with asphalt, bitulithic, or bituminous concrete, or concrete, and construct curbs, gutters, drains and sidewalks and construct and lay sewer lines in and on the following streets and nor tions of streets of the Town of Way nesville, viz: Hazel Street from Walnut Street to East Main Street.

Often brings out old waste matter you never thought was in your system. Excel lent for chronic constipation. Waynes ville Pharmacy. MRS. ALLEN HOSTESS. year was .05928, or nearly 6i. Yet East Street from Welch Street millions of dollars went out of the top ol Johnson HlU. to state in various forms of securi ties!' paying not any better return, and no doubt many of them of doi' : fu: value. It is safe to assume that 90'', of our' people do not understand the functions of these instutions, nnd this can be overcome only by concer,: t ed efforts and judicious advertising on the part of the building and loan associations.
