Mr. Glazcner has a good sized shoat that does as he says—so long as he does not say too much. But this “trained pig” will sit down when told to by his owner, and get up when told. No other trick was tried \vith the porker during his “childhood days,” and now that he is in the 200-pound class Mr. Glazener fears that it is too late to teach him to dance and sing.

L. Hogsecl, one of the owners of the fur-growing industry located near Calvert, seven and one-half miles from Brevard on highway 28. Many people visit the fox ranch each season, Mr. Hogsecl stated, and to avoid loitering around the place, a small admis sion fee is being charged. Over 150 foxes, silvers, reds and blues are on the ranch, with about 50 mink and one pair of fitch. Much interest is attached to the silver fox industry in this county, in that the United States government has announced after much research that this immediate section of Western North Caro lina is adapted to fine fur grow ing, being on an equal with Prince Edward Island, the recognized standard climate for growing of furs of high type. •for-sonator campaign in Tran sylvania county.

I Cameron Morrison, United States senator, who is seeking re nomination by the Democratic party in the second primary to be held Saturday, was a Brevard vis itor last Saturday afternoon, stop ping at the Waltermire hotel for short stay, where he met with workers of his campaign . here. Otto Alexander county manag er for Morrison, had invited a number of people of the county to meet the senator, to whom he ex pressed confidence of his success Saturday in his race against Robt. R. Reynolds of Asheville. Morrison made the statement in Brevard that there was a miscon ception of his stand on the soldier bonus payment matter and also as to bis stand on the 18th Amend ment. He asserted that he was not against payment of the ad justed compensation certificates, but that he advocated the pay ment of the face value of the cer tificates in five yearly payments instead of payment in full at this time. “To endeavor to pay the huge amount of $2,400,000,000 at this time would bankrupt the Nearly a hundred relatives and friends of the Holliday family gathered at the old Jim Holliday place, near Biantyre for union that was enjoyed as only these gatherings are.

Of all the sports provided at this camp, ten nis is perhaps the most popular, it being exceptionally •well equip ped for this game.

It was not only with reluctance, but with deep regret, the mayor declared, that he tenders his resig nation as head pf the city admin istration. However, his friends point out that his great capacity textile operator, as evidenced through his success in this field of endeavor, does not warrant his rejection of the advantageous con nections that have been offered him to resume that business.

A sure cure for the depression being advocated by some of the Brevard “wise men” who assert that they have learned from out side sources of a way by which the government could issue every man 50 one-dollar bills and let the money revolve around and around, each person affixing a stamp until 35 three-cent stamps had been placed upon each of the dollars, thus repaying the govern ment for the “loan” and inciden tally putting plenty of money back in circulation. The plan is similar to that told of in last week’s issue of The Waynesville Mountaineer, which follows; How would you like to have the government give you and every member of y’our house fifty one- dollar bills, give it outright and tell you to spend it for what you please? This man would have the government issue six billion dol lars in currency—fifty billion one- dollar bills, if you please— and give fifty to each man, woman and child, white and black, Je'^v and ■ Gentile,, rich and poor, throughout the breadth of the United States, j According to the last census there ■ were 120 million people and their; names and addresses were regis tered 18 months ago by the 1930 census takers.
