PROGRESSIVE ACTION. The contract which has this week been entered into between the Board of County Commissioners and the Town of West Asheville assures the paving of the main street of West Asheville from the concrete bridge to Sulphur Springs. The contract pro vides for a 40-foot street for a part of the ways for a 60-foot stretch and for a 2 4 -foot street from the end of the car line to Sulphur Springs. It al so provides for re-surfacing the Bre vard Road from the end of the car line to Hominy Creek. The work is to he done under the joint supervision of the County and West Asheville. The County is to contribute $30,001 towards the work, while West Ashe ville is to pay the balance, estimated to be $60,000. The signing of this contract is the most progressive act of the Vear. It is impossible to place a proper value on this most important step. It means a splendid highway from Asheville to Sulphur Springs and the Asheville School. Tt means that the worst TDiece of road between Asheville and Ihe top of Pisgah is to be converted into a paved street and that the en- war prophets believe, how lonesome Teddy will be in the West Indies.

And If you are a Democrat, And hungry as a bear, Just trot around to the Kitchin And look and see who's there! "Who's with the President?" "I," was the cry, "With my little aye, "I'm with the President." "Mad as a March hare," seems rather a good simile, tf the weather is the provoking cause.

But he will continue to go In the way which he believes will be for the best interests of the country which he serves. The American people, regardless of faction of political affiliation, should stand by the president as he guides the ship through the present great In ternational crisis, and we believe the great majority are narcotic enough to do so when It comes to a showdown. (Carolina Mountaineer.) The president favors prepardness. He spoke In a number of cities some weeks ago and found the people were for It. A test vote In the senate Fri day showed that body with him by a vote 68 to 14. What can the lower house of congress do now but follow after this? If they have had their ears to the ground to learn public sentiment or if they have been read ing the papers they are now prepared to act on preparedness In spite of the leaders who oppose it. If they presist there will be some new faces in con gress next year. Since this writing, congress has act ed, the vote being 176 for .and 142 against.

Last year in the Home Prog ress magazine there was a contest with this set of books as a prize. Every month 10 questions were giv en, that could be correctly answered by the persons thoroughly familiar with the works of John Borroughs: in other words the answers could be found by careful reading of the great naturalist's books. Miss Anne Erwin, Asheville's scholarly librarian, assist ed by Miss Elizabeth Williamson, also of the library staff, correctly answer ed the questions duriTig the entire year, and won for the library this in teresting edition.

THE SONG OF LIFE. In a recent review of the works of Tiabindrannth Tagore. in ' the New York Times weekly book review, we find the following: During the last year we have had occasion to point out the reviving in terest, noticeable in the Increased vol ume of this particularly class of cur rent publications, that has been shown in poetry. So significant has this in terest been that we are almost justified In saying that an epoch of war has for Its by-product an epoch of poetry. It Is a curious commentary, however, on this showing among our contemporary looks that the outstanding figure in poetry has not the slightest relation apparently to the Great War. It Is only four years ago that the first series of translations of Rablndranath Tape-re's poems were published In this country by the Macmllllans under the title "Gltanlali." Since then the au thor has been awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature, and six additional volumes of his work have appeared In English translation, containing two more volumes of poems, a collection of prose essays, and three dramatic pieces. The philosophy of the poet Tagore is sublimely optimistic. He empha sizes what Is often hard for mere mor tals to believe when the long lane of life seems without a turning the Joy ous underlying purpose of existence; that life, In spite of its shadows, leads Into the sunlight Tagore says: ''Be cause I love this life so well, I know I shall love death as well. "The child cries out when from the right breast the mother takes it away, in the very next moment to And la the life one Its consolation." The poet Yeats declares that, ''this Is the epoch of Tagore." We believe that this faith in life's essential joy ousnesa Is the strong appeal of the great Indian. As another eastern mystic writes, ''Listen to the song of life. Look for It, and listen for It, first In your own heart. At first you may say It la not there, when I search I And only discord. Look deeper. If sgaln you are disappointed, pause, and look deeper again.

It seems that they have been fall ing off In popularity for some time. When they first arrived years ago, they were much of a novelty, and drew large crowds. But of late the paid experts who give instruction at these Institutes have had a harder row to hoe every year, as far as au diences are concerned. The trouble with the situation Is that most of the farmers In the au diences don't think they need to learn so much In addition to what they know to be pretty successful farmers. It is probable that county Insti tutes on the best way to operate Fords or other automobiles, with demon strations of self-starters and four and six cylinder talk would draw better crowds. f I Needed sit Home (Lexington Herald.) "Orphans and pigs eating from the same pan." "Children Infested with vermin." "Sanitary arrangements fil thy." These are the descriptive words used la reporting toe condition of certain private institutions for chil dren la the great oity of New York. The Tribune says. "These words In dicate' that the horrors that Dickens wrote about have survived into the twentieth century." It might be well to point out this ease to those Yankee sisters who have on several occasions slandered the mountain people of Western worth Carolina. While they are groaning over the fate of the poor. A litle girl was eager to go to one of the carnivals where the loops-the loops, Ferris wheel and other scarey mechanisms were in full swing, some one had given her a ticket that in cluded all these thrillers.

Tt is said that Paris is no longer re sponsible for the latest thing; Paris ians are too seriously occupied.
