STRICTLY IN ADVANCE _i A THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.—lsaiah 35 6. TRUE AND HONEST SERVICE o Successful persons do not work in the sense of la boring, because they find in work the joy of service. Work brings compensations, among which money is included, but money must not be made the prime ob ject of our service. The man who is working for money earns only a stipend, and however small his salary he is cheating his employer. To be Truly successful any business must be supported by something more substantial than the desire to make money. It must be built on a spirit: the spirit for service. The businessman, em ployee or employer will be successful in proportion to his ideal of service and to his efficiency in develop ing and expressing that ideal. If his ideal is high he will seek to be worthy of it j He will perfect his ability to the highest degree. He will be humble in his attainment, ready to receive suggestions, to accept improvements in method from any source that can give them. He will never con sider that he has “arrived” but will always be onjthe way. Whether we are selling a commodity, rendering a service, painting a picture, digging a ditch, or preach ing a sermon, it should be done to the glory of God and in a consciousness of His presence. When we “serve as for the Lord” we are assured of success. God’s work cannot fail, and as we render faithful, efficient sendee to Him we attract the dem onstration of supply; but supply is likely to come in unexpected ways, and it has come in many ways from the good people of our community. Let us thank all, for their contributions of news we print each week and in making our paper a better paper to read. What Luck! o County commissioners got a •wonderful break when the State took over all the roads. They don't have to worry about the condition of the highways I primary or secondary, the mud and the mess created practically by the weather every winter. They don’t even have to pass the buck when delegations appear be fore them with blood in their eyes and mud on their feet demanding that something be done. It’s the State’s responsibility, gentlemen, they can say in all honesty. They can go further and agree with every word of the kicks. It’s horrible, terrible and more than that; yes, sir, gentlemen, some thing should be done about it, and we sign the petition with you and hope the State will do something about it. The commissioners can say it ! with a smile and a straight face and tell the truth. It is the truth. ; They are the people’s friends in fact; in fact, they are in this part of the people themselves. What j luck! Besides, they live in town or on a paved road as a general thing and it’s easy to commiserate and offer sympathy under such circumstances. -Once it was that a county com missioner was, first of all, a road commissioner, and stayed in hot water or mud most of the time- The State changed all that and now all he has to do about the roads is stay off them.—Char lotte Observer.

We hope that the baby is growing and enjoying the best of health. If not, we sug gest that you have your family physician examine it. It is possible for a grown person to have Diphtheria and Whooping Cough, but a grown person knows how to protect himself from these diseases. A small child cannot help himself and must depend on ! you. The period from the age of 6 months to 6 years, and especially between 6 months and 2 years, is most serious for your baby. Your baby can be protected against Whooping Cough and Diphtheria all at one time. Pro tection against both diseases re quires only 3 injections 4 weeks apart. (Diphtheria alone requires 2 injections 4 weeks apart.) There is no charge for this protection at the Health Department. If you have not already done so, go to your family physician for this protection or come to the County Health Department, 9th floor of the Court House, in Ashe ville, on any Friday or Saturday morning between 9 and 12 o’clock. If you live near Black Mountain, you may come to the Health De partment Clinic at Dr. Anthony’s office each Thursday at 2 p.m. Strange Phenomenon (WNU Service) There is also a clinic at Dr. Sprin kle’s office in Weaverville each Wednesday at 2 p.m., and another clinic at Redman Hall, Arden,! each Wednesday at 3 p.m. There 1 is no charge for this inoculation at any of these clinics.

We miss so much in life by looking for the great things to happen in spectacular ways. The person who can make the loudest noise gets the largest crowd. The company that buys the largest and most sensational advertise ments sells the most goods. The nation that commands world at tention is the one that can mar tial the largest army, the heav iest navy and the fastest air j force. By some mental and moral perversion we have fallen forthe i spectacular in every area of life. S But how much we do miss of real living! God works in quiet ways. The growth of a blade of grass makes no noise and puts on no show, but what real grandeur is there. Great mountain peaks tower above us in silence, no fuss, no | crying for attention; but how eternal! Head of the lives of great men and women who have charted men’s courses toward God and you find the quiet souls whose minds are fixed on count less little things that add up to spiritual sums of tremendous pow er. The events in our history that have made a greater world are not a few great battles where thou- - sands lay slaughtered in sacrifice : to gods of war; they are the events of less noisy nature that I historians sometimes forget. A quiet temple when Isaiah saw j God. A dusty road when Paul came face to face with reality. A ! solitary figure in a garden list j ening to the songs of children, and Augustine found abundant | life. A bare monastary cell I where Luther dug through a maze j of confusion to find the basis of I faith. John Wesley attending, by i chance, a small prayer meeting on a street in London resulting in a sweeping spiritual revival and giving new life to the indus trial revolution. Countless men of science in undisturbed re search discovering hidden bless ings for all mankind. The match less man of Galilee quietly going about doing good; without a cry, dying on a cross; teaching to a few the victories over life and death to be found in God. What a far cry from our mad rush for thrills, noise, escape from reality, the dizzy pace of futile living! God can be found in quiet things and in quiet places and in serene souls. “Be still and know that I am God.” Black Mountain College Will Give Winter Concert The first of the winter quarter' concerts will be presented this Saturday night, 8:15 p.m. at Black Mountain Colege.
