Help to ke?*|? this j column soin'. BY OI.F. MAN MURPIIY 11IS-SF.T.F i Who wouldn't feel tip top on days like we are having: now? And such ideal football weather. Our boys have played twice since last we wrote, and played well. Hayesville did not run away with them again. There we s< improvement. And Bryson was scored upon twice in the return game with them. The:t* we see still much improvement. Our boys lost both gam.s. Hut against teams that have had a year, or two or three of experience. And' our green ' a;n mad a much better; showing against each than in their first game with them. We will heat them next year. If you have any desire to know i Ole Man Murphy "in person" just j look down at the bald headed row. at the Lions ''lay next Tuesday' night. We will be there. Wt con-, gratulate th? artist who prepared the poster in the window of the J Post. Office. We hav. the habit of! looking forward to those posters! each year. And the ast this year ? we expect i some good comedy and we will not j be disappoinnted. Mrs. Maida Mai- > lo ?e". . ilrs. Edw. ._E. Adams, Mrs. 1^ Dale Lee, Eloise Fain and Margaret Witherspoon, Roy Steele, Dr. Edd ; Adams. Brian Sipe and Harve Elkins. I We have seen them all before, and I we will be glad to see them again. And again. And How! We hear there is an Englishman and a famous band master in the play. And two young men want ing to marry money and not knowing which lady has it, exactly. A "Cy clone", two ladies not wanting to get married (???), one that does, and one at the right age to enjoy the predicaments of those who desire matrimony, and those who do not. Carry on. We ar? with you, have been with you, and will be with you. We congratulate the Town author ities, perhaps. At least we welcome the renewed parking lines. Why institute a good idea and allow it to die an un-natural death for want of attention? Those lines are a good idea and are needed, permanently. We hear our Town is able to boast of some real golf enthusiasts. The rumor is that there are some who think enough of the game to play all afternoon during a cold driz zle of rain. We salute them. And are proud of anyone who has that amount of persistence about any thing. Someday we are going to try that game and find out, perhaps, what there is to it that will make an other wise normal man chase a little dirty ball over three thousand yards of terra firma thru a cold drizzle of rain, up hill and down hollow, across ditches and thru branches. Selah! We have been told by said players that once we try it we v<ill then be golf enthusiasts, golf addicts. We are sceptical, but we have seen stranger things happen. There is one silver lining in parti cular that we would like to mention right now, and that is that the Nu Fashion Hosiery Mills are humming. More orders than they can fill, working all the machines they have set up, and working fast to get new machines set up. We are going to make a prophecy, and there are those in Murphy that will at once condemn our column for such a prophecy, becaust tliey, being stale enough to be buried, do not believe anything good can happen in their Town. The prophecy is that in TWO YTSARS that mill, putting on More machines as fast as possible, and increasing their pay roll, will have a Annual Report of Coun ty Home Ending 31st Day of May, 1929 Groceries $576.00 Clothing . 115.52 Shoes and Repairing 69.27 Tobacco and Snuff 27.53 Barbering 50.49 Medicine Prescriptions 85.85 Cow and Chicken feed 270.32 Labor.

Notwithstanding the rainy afternoon J a full attendance was registered. After some preliminary business was attended to, the president, Mrs. C. W. Savage, stated the purpose of the meeting. This was a special meeting to study the Home Mission Book entitled the Crowded Way. In a comprehensive and able lecture. Dr. J. P. Anderson gave a resume of the first three chapters of the book. This book is being studied by the women of the Southern Piesbyterian Church over a wide area. All the members were delighted and express ed their appreciation of the fine ex position and outline as given by Dr. Andci*son. At the conclusion of the meeting the hostess served de lightful refreshments. On the following day, Wednesday, the Auxiliary met at again at the residence of Mrs. J. N. Hill. Again there was a full attendance although the weather was very inclement. A substantial offering was made for Home Mission. At this meeting the study of the Crowded Way was con tinued, Dr. Anderson giving a lec ture on the remaining three chap ters. Those present were: Mrs. C. W. Savage, Mrs. R. S. Parker, Mrs. M. W. Bell, Mrs. D. Witherspoon, Mrs. J. P. Anderson, Mrs. R. W. Gray, Mrs. W. W. Hyle, Mrs. J. B. Storey, Mrs. J. N. Hill, Mrs. A. C. Huber, Mrs. Daley, and Miss Annie Graham Anderson, Mrs. Thomas Spencer. At the close of the meet ing, Mrs. Hill served the members with delightful refreshments. Mr. and Mrs. Hume Bowless and children spent Sunday at Robbins ville. Card of Thanks This card of thanks was handed in several weeks ago, but was overlook ed through a mistake. The family of the late Dr. W. S. McCombs wishes to thank the many friends for their kindness shown dur ing his illness and death and for their many beautiful floral offerings. McCombs' family. pavroll of TWO THOUSAND DOL ARS A WEEK. We believe that enough to make a wager with anvone that such will be the case. More power to them. Murphy is in on the GrOuNd floor on that new industry. In ten years the Cotton Mills of the South will have to include Rayon in their out put if they wish to remain in busi ness. Rayon is here to stay and plain cotton goods are more or less doomed. Another prophecy? So Be It.

TULAREMIA During the last ten days the press serried of about fifteen state de partments of health have sent out literature, some of which has reach ed our desk, calling attention to the fact that now the hunting season is open all hunters should beware of rahhit fever. Our regular read ers will recall that in the October Health Bulletin we published a short article on the subject. In that article we called attention to the fact that some of the United States Public Health Service recent reports placed suspicion on quail as well as rabbits. This disease is a rather serious oc currence and for the most part is spread by handling or dressing for the table rabbits, and, as just said, possibly qua 1. which are infected with the disease. This infection from the infected rabbit or bird may be easily transmitted to a per son who lias an abras'on or -or* <?f any kind on the hands. It can be easily prevented if all persons who dress rabbits or quail would . e rub ber gloves or ivfrain from such duties if there i- any sustjni. . r? of sores or abras'ons about Oi li : <! ? and arni$ from which infcct:on rould enter. Thorough cocking ?.>' inf. t ed rabbits dectroy< th * infective agent, ami there is no dan? :? for people who eat such food after it is thoroughly cooked. The danger comes through handling the uncook ed carcasses. We hop'- that sufficient publicity may be given at this time to this item because it may help to prevent any undue uneasiness among persons who are fond of such food, and at the same time will protect anyone liable to infection. To sum up, ou ? advice to people who like rabbits for food is to go ahead and eat them as usual, but to be careful in dress ing, a^d to thoroughly cook them be fore eating. W. V. MORROW.
