Berry I think it will ho p/inppflpfl hv AVftTV one that citizenship involves d4Res i and responsibility to the community j in which one lives. Whether a man rides a Rolls-Koyce, a Packard or | straddles a razor-back mule and grow* a crop of spinach on his chin, he has a certain obligation to the people and place which he calls home. Whether his house is made of marble, brick or n mud he is responsible to a certain c extent for the welfare of his neigh- n bors. None of these conditions makes a true citizenship. To be a citizen a jj man must be willing to share in those common responsibilities which a are necessary to promote the well- a being of his community. To accomDlish this """? boon r established in Try on the Chamber of s Commerce, whose purpose is to en- P large, improve and foster those interests that are mutually beneficial to all ^ of its people, civic moral and intel- tlectual. Here the men and women n of Tryon can come together for counsel, to exchange views, to formulate t J plans for all needed improvements, to ? investigate the matter of equal taxa- 0 tion, to aid in the extension and im- n provements of the water supply and ? to enlarge the sewerage system, to strengthen the enforcement of laws | and ordinances for without the moral 0 support of the community the observ- c ance of laws and ordinances becomes lax and ineffective. For the accomplishment of this, the ' "? ? U 1 ? 1 tnamDer 01 uommerce lecio n m judu; entitled to the full and active support " and cooperation of all citizens regard- j less of their position in life, for what t we do for ourselves we are equally t doing for every other citizen of Tryon. * ,.The* Commerce has no political af- c filiation, It Is not organized to promote a or further the interests of any one 8 man or set of men. The membership dues are small, the work is divided up into committees and is not burdensome to any one. There is no compensation * paid to any official of the organization, 3 except the Secretary who devotes his j entire time to the service of the ori ganization. If our citizens could come into close | touch and see the benefits and help derived through similar organizations < in our neighboring towns, see the en- 1 thusiasm, and earnestness with which ' men take hold of all matters pertain- 1 ing to civic improvement, see the , moral influence exerted, see what is t | being accomplished by the cooperation of mien, I am sure they would give to ' our Chamber of Commerce the loyal and personal support which the organization deserves and which as citizens , they are entitled to receive.

Mtmanag^j Municipal Parka One of Today's Great Needs Municipal parka of the larger type, rhlch combine the advantages of the reat national parks and the small elghborhood parks, are, In some repects, tha type most needed by American cities, Karl B. I.ohmann, chief of andscape architecture at the college f agriculture. University of Illinois, ays In an article In Parks and Hecretlon. Oil r OTPO t naHAnol po elio oro too for eiuoved from the people In cities to erve them adequately, Lohmanri oints out. Neither are the smatl elghboorhood parks, which are withit easy reach of many, the Ideal form cause they afford so little of what he brain-wearied people of the city aost demand, he adds. "The type to which we may turn, herefore, must be, one that combines i a nearly as possible the advantages I <f these two extremes, having prlnarlly scenery on the one hand and ccessiblllty on the other. From this re may assume that It must be a j ilace of considerable size, within fairy convenient reach of the people and I ifferlng them a feeling of the open ! ountry, with woods and views over tretches of grass apd water sufficient o provide refreshment of mind and lody for hours at a time." Parks are beginning to occupy an mtstanding place In the lives of the tmerlcan people, Lohmann says. MilIons of dollars have been spent In his country and millions of acres lave been acquired ror pars pill pnoco. I chile the demand for parks goes on InTeasing and finds continuous erpresilon In the acquirement of new lands ind further new developments. Old Traditiona Kept Many of the old traditional English ixpendltures are still to be seen on the -ondon city accounts for the year. The lord mayor draws his salary "In leu of all ancient fees and emolunents." He has at the same time a furniture allowance for the Mansion louse." and a "robe allowance." The official city swordbearer, the :lty trumpeter, the ancient ale confers and the vergers of 8t Paul's cathedral are still on the list of salaried officials. Another ltpm of expense is labeled "open spaces," which being translated means the cost of parks and commons. Another entry says "For cloth delivered, according to ancient custom, to ministers of state and others," while there are expensive entries under the entertainment of foreign royalty "for the cost of writing and Illuminating the (presentation) scroll." 7 Charles Sugbeoe Hi ii| it. imm fppn ,uji.

THE SIMPLE 1JFE We have almost abandoned wholesome, air-cured meats, from which most of the deadly nitrogens hare been removed by the pure air of the country, and have espoused instead the chsmioally treated product of commerce. Daring a fraction of the year art eat fresh vegetables from the garden?at least some of us do; others buy vegetables that hare passed through a half-dozen dealers' hands?wilted and stale. Most of the year we resort to the factory product, housed within its tin can, from the shelves of the, wholesaler. Verily the road I back,to the simple life is growing Longer every feverish minute, yet | the simple life is the strong Untenant of health and happiness. 7 The law of right living has been ignored, trampled upon, despised. We fill our bodies with food at the hours when the digestion is at its lowest efficiency ? we overpower the stomach, thus starving the nerves. Hours of rest are pirated Into hours of activity, until the inevitable failure cornea. then we i.

Western Newspaper UftlMLl Oh, it's grand to be in Tryon in the Spring! (Bv Albert L. Berry) Skirting around our home on the mountain side there is a path followed by the childdren on their wdy to school, and from my window one morning f heard them singing , as they hurried along, "Oh, to be in Tryon is ajoy." )h, it's grand to be in Tryon IVhen tihe dogwood lights her spires, knd the golden torch of heaven Starts the flaming tulip firee: When the 'zalia's gorgeous cluster Srowns the mountain with itslustor. 3h, then to be in Tryon is ajoy! Oh, to go a-romping Where knee-deep grasses grow. And mountain streams are dancing With their j >yous overflow: When the warm spring air is blowing And ail "green things are growing. Oh, to be in Tryon is a joy!" Where the Redbird rocks her cradle As she sings heeforest song, And the Orlole'ssUver fiutlng Brings the summer days along: When the frost deep is sounding, Great melodies resounding. Oh, then to be in Tryon is a joy! Quick and Economical > Way to Repair Blow-Oui A rapid and economical way to repair a blow-out on the road Is to lace . ap the tear with ordinary wire belt lacing. To make a good repair job In fifteen or twenty minutes, cut away the loose rubber around the blow-out so you can extend the lacing an Inch or so beyond each end of tlje break. Then with a tmt pin or sharp, small nail punch a number of holes along the edges of the cut, being careful to make them equidistant and not too close together or too near the sides of the opening. Next lace up the cut with the wire lefpg using only one strand to each h ' nd keeping the tension of the wii? t-ands as uniform as possible. A double row of wire lacing, one over the other, will be much stronger than the single row. You mua+ Ka oiiso nluoo a rvf AAA nf ffl n.
