As some misunderstanding may
have been caused by my article in
the Sylvan Valley News of recent
date relative to certain statements
having been made about my re
paying the chnrch for aid extended
me while a boy at school, and inas-
mnch as it may be thought by some
that W. E. Breese, Jr., had used
such arguments against me during
the campaign, I wish to say that I
never heard of Mr. Breese referring
to the matter in any way whatever,
but on the contrary I learned that
he refused to use such tactics in
our campaign. Our campaign was
absolutely free from personalities,
and our debate was pitched upon
the high plane of political and eco
nomic issues as applied to our
county. ■ Mr. Breese and myself
came out of the campaign better
friends than when we went in, I
am writing this in the interest of
simple and exact justice.

Voting Was Very Brisk for the
Past Week, and Contestants
Are Working Hard.
Tuesday, December 3rd, marked
the close of the second count,
which proved to be the most ex
citing day in the contest since its
inauguration nearly two months
ago. Many thousands of votes
came in during the last week, and
up to the closing hour voting was
brisk.
This count was to decide who
had made the greatest increase
since the first count. The votes
came in as shown below, with Mrs,
Chas. Jollay making the greatest
gain, closely followed by Miss Ger
trude Wilson.
The $10.00 in gold was awarded
to Mrs. Jollay, and the stand
ing of Miss Kilpatrick is a complete
surprise to all, and no doubt when
the piano is awarded Miss Kilpat
rick will have to be reckoned with.
Miss Holcom, who stood fourth in
the count, has made a marked in
crease and received a strong popu
lar vote by her many friends.
Our contestants are flsruring to
get the results we »o desire, and
the lady who will receive this
piano will be well repaid for the
work she has done. This la u
splendid opportunity to show yonr
ability, and any lady who win-«
will have proven her merit and be
the happy recipient of the beauti
ful $400.00 piano. Keep in touol
with each issue and come frequent
ly to the Sylvan Valley News office,
for there may be some little as
sistance that the editor can do for
each one of you.
On January 7th the ballot box
will be opened for the last time
before the final count. On the
above date we will award $10.00 in
gold to any lady who makes the
greatest increase between the sec
ond and third special count. The
lady who can win this last special
prize not only will receive $10.00 in
gold, but will also place herself in
good pasition to win on the final
count, which will be about Janu
ary 20th.
Many thousand votes can be
turaed in in close observance of
the following bonus offer:
For every 7 new subscriptions
10,000 extra votes, a total of 14,200
votes.
For every 7 renewals, 8,000 extra
vot*^s, a total of 11,500 votes.
For every 40 merchant’s coupons
brought to this office and counted
by the publisher or his assistant we
will give 1,000 extra votes, a total
of 2,000 votes.
The following merchants are
giving 25 vote merchant’s coupons
with each $1 cash purchase :
Miller Supply Co.
Stone Hardware Co.
O. L. Erwin’s Store.
Duckworth Drug Co.

BREVARD INSTITUTE NOTES
The past week was one of anxiety
on the part of both pupils and
teachers, it being the week of the
final examinations for the first
term. But it is all over now—the
final grades .have been recorded
and reports given out.
Thanksgiving day made a wel
come break in the monotony. We
had a royal good dinner, and some
of the young people amused them-
selves with snow balling. But it
was an unusually quiet day, every
body being too tired for much
frolicking.
The Taylor Literary Society met
in debate Saturday night. The
topic was: “Resolved, That the
country offers better opportunities
to young men than the city.” Af
firmative, Antonio Macias and
Hoover Jollay; negative, Eugene
Frazier and Clay well Ross. The
debate resulted in a tie, and a sec
ond impromptu debate followed,
also resulting in a tie.
A class in telegraphy has been
organized for the new term. Mr.
Elbert Davis will be the instructor.
Mr. Antonio Macias will organize
a class in plumbing. Mr. Macias
conducts also a class in Spanish.
Being a native Spaniard himself,
Mr. Macias can, of course, offer
superior advantages to anyone wish
ing to learn this beautiful language.
The ladies of the W.«H. Society
of Winston-Salem, through Miss
Florence Blackwell, have recently
sent us a donation of canned goods
and household furnishings, for
which our thanks are due.
The second term opened Decem
ber 3 and quite a number of new
pupils have been enrolled. Also
many who have been temporarily
absent are coming in again.
Miss Edna Willis and Miss Fenie
Johnson spent the week end with
their parents at Hendersonville and
ind Fletohers.
ROSMAN NEWS
Mr. and Mrs. A. O. Kitchen and
little daughter, . Reba, spent
Thanksgiving in Asheville. .
Thanksgiving was observed by
the school at this place and the
pupils all enjoyed the holiday. The
teachers were very fortunate in
receiving an invitation to dinner
by Mrs. J. B. Neal. Mr. Jones of
Cullowhee Institute was also pres
ent.
On the night of December 19 an
entertainment will l)e given under
the auspices of the Betterment As
sociation at the high scnool build
ing. A play entitled “Christmas
at the Cross-roads” will be ren
dered by several high school and
sixth grade pupils. A drill by high
school girls will also be given while
the remainder of the program will
be interspersed by the Christmas
songs and recitations of the smaller
grades.
Some of the pupils are now giv
ing a portrait of ex-Governor C. B.
Aycock to everyone who will con
tribute ten cents for the purpose of
helping erect a monument to our
“educational governor” in the Capi
tol Square at Raleigh. A nice pic
ture of the monument when erected
will be given the school free of
cost. Elmer.
