Connally Streets will be open all

install heat in an effort to relieve
the housing congestion experienced
generally throughout this section.
The Inn expects to accomodate a
number of service wives and per
sonnel of Moore General Hospital

APPETIZERS
Appetizer’ salads are probably the
most versatile of salads. Besides
their ability to shine as an admirable
first course for a hearty dinner,
they are ideal for tea, bridge and
porch parties.
A small serving Is the first rule
for such a salad. Color, arrange
ment, shape and texture all enter
into the picture. And of course
ingredients should be well chilled,
the dressing piquant. The other
foods that are being served, the
occasion and the season will de
termine whether a fruit, raw
vegetable, or fish salad is to be
featured.
Another popular idea is to line up
the “makings"— letting your family
or guests choose their own food
favorites in concocting a salad to
their liking.

Uncle Sam asks that 900,000 more
sows be bred to farrow this fall
than last year. The national fall
pig production goal is 37 million.

Landlord Not Making Repairs
Daniel Webster was one day call
ing on ex-President John Adams
who, was failing rapidly in health,
as they were talking on topics of
the day, a friend came and ask the
aged man how he was feeling.
Adams replied: “As a matter of fact
I inhabit a week, frail and decayed
tenement, battered by the winds
and broken in upon by the storms
and, from all appearances, the land
lord docs not intend to make repairs.

PARACHUTE Infantry Sgt. Ray E. Eubanks, La Grange, N. C.,
awarded a Medal of Honor posthumously, died after clubbing to
death 4 Japs with his rifle in a machine gun and mortar nest. Going
to the relief of a platoon isolated by the enemy in Dutch New Guinea,
he crawled to the Nips’ position, was wounded and his rifle crippled,
but charged in, swinging. After a shot dropped Eubanks, his squad
killed 45 and effected the relief. War Bonds help equip such heroes.

The most successful dairymen
keep good cows only, feed them well,
and manage them properly.
Their cows are housed in stables

f able cows must be comfortable cows,

J with due regard to their comfort.
J The constantly increasing demand

- Mr. Cook was in the News office
k this morning with a cut from a pop
lar tree he had cut down in his yard
at his home.
The tree was about eight and one
half inches in diameter and has a
perfect cross in the center, a nat
ural formation. The cross is jet
black against the white poplar wood,
makes it really a freak of nature.
A section of the tree can be seen
at the office of the Black Mountain

BLACK MOUNTAIN
AND SWANNANOA
LIONS ROAR
The Lions Club of Black Moun
tain and Swannanoa were hosts to
a mighty fine bunch of Lions re
cently from almost everywhere,
from the mountains, from the vallies
and cities from all around.
Herb Sanders was out in the front
row with his monthly reports for the
whole year. Herb believes in doing
things up right— each report was
sent in within five days after the
last club meeting of each month.
The Lions Club is now frozen to
an active membership of fifty mem
bers, and are most certainly an up
and-at-em bunch of Lions.
It is wonderful what a few good
men under the name of Lions Club
can mean to the community. By
sponsoring various things for the
welfare of Black Mountain and
Swannanoa people, it should have
due credit.
Many things here-to-fore that the
Lions Club have done has gone ur
noticed as they only had a mouth
to-ear method of letting people
: know what they were doing. BUT
from now on, bet your money on
the Black Mountain News that you
will get a welcome hand in any and
all activities that you may be en
gaged in,- in the future. In their
last bulleton, the Lions gave us a
good boost, may we in the future
deserve this confidence. We will
assure you that we will not betray
it.
3E 'ECHOES FR OM as
< (oAye,
MOUNTAINS^
By H. GRADY HARDIN
Until powerful machines were de
veloped only a few years ago, build
ing roads in these mountains was
a tedious and difficult job. With
a little powder, many men and picks
mules and pans roads that wound
around the cove finally reached the
nearest gap. The super highways of
to-day are quite different. With huge
machines that have unlimited power
nothing is too great an obstical to
, move. The valleys are filled and the
mountains are lowered' until the
highway now becomes the shortest
distance between two points. In
j 1920 the road from Black Mountain
to Asheville was a great compromise
with, the "lay of the land". Tomorrow
it will be a transformation of the
land.
Abetter community and world will
come when we develope the power
of character in proportion to the
development in the machines. Hu
man relationship have been built
by a compromise with existing or
ders so long that the highways to
a better order hug the valleys of
our selfish desires and cling pre
cariously to the cliffs of wreckless
chance. When we have learned the
art of using the power of high pur
; po e, a broad love, and' adeep de
votion. we will have learned to build
• roads for better human relation
i ships that transform the land,
i The prophet Isaiah said this mag-
I nificent when he said:"Prepare ye
the way of the Lord, make straight
i a highway for our God. Every valley
i shall be exalted, and every moun
i tain and hill shall be made low:
s anti the crooked' shall be made—
straight, and the rough places plain:
And the glory of the Lord shall be
revealed” (Isaiah 40: 3.5)
