Wonder if that million dollars
which was to be spent in Transyl
vania enterprises “if Taft was
elected,” will now materialize—or
was it a bluff?
Wouldn’t it be a good thing for
ihe Brevard Board of Trade to get
x)ptions on the river valley farms
around our town—at least to learn
what they can be bought' f6r if
prospective buyers should wish to
know?
We believe that there are several
enterprises which are looking
towards Brevard for a location, but
they are not yet ready for publicity,
^he great lake project in Hender
sonville was killed by premature
publicity.
W. T. Bosse returned last Friday
from Spartanburg where he had

his father alive, as the latter died
early on the previous Wednesday
morning.
The first real winter day was
Thursday, November 5th. Up to
that time we had a mixture of

indications that winter was nigh at
hand. But there was a something
in the air of Thursday morning
different from all the mornings
that had gone before it.

ing. The program was short, but
well discussed. The schools were
pretty well represented, though
«ome of the teachers were absent.
Prof. Estes of the graded school
led in a discussion of the subject,
*'Method in Teaching.” His re
marks were suggestive and practi
cally helpful to teachers. The sub
ject “The Teacher as a Factor in
Civil Government,” was opened by
Prof; J. B. Thorne of the Broad
Valley high school in a very
thoughtful address. Both subjects
were further discussed by different

Wouldn’t it be great if Brevard
was situated on the banks of Lake
Toxaway ? And what is to hinder
its being so situated? It wouldn’t
cost so very much more to build a
lake here by damming French
Broad than it did to dam Toxaway
river.
King John’s lake is once more an
accomplished fact, and numerous
specimens of the “bream” family
are to be turned loose io stock it.
There will be a boat on the lake so
that summer visitors who enjoy
fishing and boating will find an op
portunity to enjoy themselves.
