®l\t ®rgmi ;®atlti ^ullrfm (The Smallest Daily Newspaper In The World) Vol. 9, Est. 1-31-28 TRYON, N. C., MONDAY, JULY 27, 193G ENTERED AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER AUGUST 20, 1928, AT THE POST OFFICE AT TRYON, N. C., UNDER THE ACT OF CONGRESS, MARCH 3,1879 FILLERS When the editor was a little boy « at the gang age, he belonged to k gang that required the showing /■cf your own blood before you could get out'of the organization. One usually used a needle or pin to prick himself. Most all the boys had big bad wolf names. Gangs played gangs at various games. This was all brought back to me this morning when two little boys brought in the following news item: The Plant Tigers defeated the Southern Twisters in baseball on Sunday afternoon at Harmon Field. Score: Plant Tigers 19; Southern Twisters 11.” Another reminder was brought .home when James E. Johnson of Hickory Grove, who writes “Here ’N Yonder” for The Polk County News, asked Elbert Arledge, “Wasn’t that a cool breeze this A.''morning about 4:30?” Elbert didn’t answer; he couldn’t. On my first visit to the country as a little boy I had to go to bed soon after supper, and in a few minutes, it seemed, I was awakened and told to get up. I looked out of the window and saw the moon shining. I didn’t know what was the trouble. I was escorted to the dining room where everybody was eating and was notified that it was time to eat. I told them that I had already eaten supper. They f ll laughed and said that it was time to eat again. “Well,” I said. “This is the first time I ever heard of anybody eating supper twice at night.” Pretty soon daylight came -Continued on Back Page W. P. A. Approves Local Club Project President B. L. Ballenger of the Tryon Country club stated today that the WPA officials had approv ed the Country club project sub mitted to it some time ago and that all that was needed now was for the Town Commissioners to ap prove the proposition. The Coun try club is making Tryon attrac tive to some of the community’s wealthiest citizens and will be an asset in bringing more of the same type to Tryon. Just a few of these citizens added to Tryon will more than pay for any expense the town may have to go toward com pleting the golf course. A few weeks ago three men from Tennes see came to Tryon and wanted to play golf but had to go to Ashe ville. When the Chicago Tribune wrote about C. H. Conrad moving to Tryon and building a home in Gillette Woods, the paper stated that he would spend much of his time in Asheville where he could play golf. A number of wealthy people have expressed a desire to come to Tryon but have stated that we only had a nine hole golf course and sand greens. Thanks to a live committee the sand greens are giving way to grass greens and we hope the Town Commission ers will see their way to approve the WPA project for enlarging the local course to 18 holes. The Tryon Kiwanis club will meet on Tuesday at 1 p. m., at Hotel Tryon. The chief feature of the meeting will be a musical program put on by Robert Baldwin and Lefty Flynn.
