There are a number of persona ow ing inheritance tax who have not paid Into the clerk's olllco and those who huve not settled according to law, are being asked to do ho. The 1919 Inheritance tax in Itun combe fell a little under that of 1918, iind it Ih pointed out by John It. Oathey, clerk of the court, that this is due to tho fact that the inheri tance tax on the Krnst estate, amount ing to $14, 858. 43, was paid in 1918. This Is the largest amount of In heritance tux ever paid on an estate in thin county, save that paid In 1916 on the (ieorge W. Vnnderbllt estate. which u mounted to tho big sum of $46,029.06. In 1918 another large es tate was the subject for Inheritance tax. that of Krancls Pack, amounting to $7,. 129. 39.

Grading W ork Being Pushed on the Alicvllle-Hlack Mountain High way To Pa In Spring. The school committee and a num ber of patrons met with Miss Terrell, superintendent, yesterday and decid ed to Install u modern heating plant In the Hose Hill NChool, Ashevllle township.

Mrs. ftcdlnger is a very entertaining talker, and tho club will be treated to an interesting and enlightening discourse. George L. (Tex) Hickard, well known promoter of sporting events, born at Kansas City 48 years ago today. The work of paving the Azalea road from tho end of the concrete paving to Alex Porter's place, con necting with the concrete road there which extends to Axulea station, was completed yesterday and thrown open to travel. This means that one of the worst roads in the countv has now ! been made one of the best, and trav elers from Ashevllle can go to Bllt I more, to Oteen hospital and on to Axaiea station over a road, as good as any paved street in tho city. The work was done !y the Ashe vllle Paving company, and Is of as phalt over tho old macudam base. The company first filled In the holes on the macadam base, makinKythe sur face smooth and then put a concrete curb on each side. The center Is of asphalt, rolled to several inches thick ness. For many months the road from the end of the old concrete paving to Oteen hospital was su bad that people dreaded to pass there. This 'is one of tho stretches on tho Asheviile-Black Mountain highway, the grading of which Is now going on. As soon as the grading is com- pleted tho Ashevllle Paving company will pave the road. The contract calls for a concrete base with an asphalt ! surface, which it is believed, wBl I mako one of the best roads in the county, if not In the state. The grad I lng contractors hope to complete their work during the spring, and just as soon as it Is finished tho paving contractors will begin their work, which will probably lust the majority of next summer. In many Instances tho bad grades have been eliminated and curves have been changed, un til the new road will show a great improvement in location over tho present road. NEW YEAR'S DANCE LARGELY ATTENDED A popular informal Hew Year's dance was given at the Elk's Club building on New Year's Eve, under the direction of the house manager, John O'Ncil. and his commlttoe of arrangements, Mrs. -Lois Miller, Mrs. Eunice Robey and Miss Ruth Howell. Thirty couples of Ashevllle's younger folks were in attendance, and dancing hold from nine until one. At midnight a moonlight dance waa participated in by all the dancers. The popularity jf the dance was such that It Is hopeo this will not bo the last of a series to be held at weekly intervals. l 1 1 mmmm mmma 3B MODERN Attractive GLASSES Modern glasses add a dignity and charm to the wearers here tofore denied them.
