'ment of the meeting of road en
thusiasts was to the effect that a
concerted effort, with all counties
pulling together would be a strong-
factor in procuring the allotment
of funds necessary.
Chairman E. B. Jeffress, of the
state highway commission, issued
statement Monday in r'vgard to
the widening and hardsurfacing of
284, in which he stated that hi.s
commission hoped to obtain as
sistance from the federal govern
ment for building- this road. No
date for beginning on this import
ant route has been set. Chairman
Jeffress’ statement follows; High
way 284 from Brevard to the Ten
nessee line presents government
complications. From Brevard thru
to Pisgah National Forest is an ex
pensive proposition to obtain a
high grade road. We hope to se
cure forestry appropriations to as
sist in this. Our representatives in
congress ought to work for a larg
er proportion of forestry funds
for North Carolina. The section of
route 284 from Cove Creek to the
Tennessee line is largely within
the park boundaries and the Na
tional Park service desires to con
struct the roads, within the park
boundaries.

these facilities, paying in return
for the investment in schools
here.
He cautioned the children about
crossing streets at other than reg

against riding “scooters” and bi
cycles to and from school.
The Rev. Paul Hartsell, pastor
Brevard ' Baptist church, had
charge of the devotionals, and
spoke of clean speech and clean
living. Prof. J. E. Rufty, princi

that has palled on the Sylvan Val

the word passed swiftly from
home to home the other day:
“Dr. Bill is dead.”
With metropolitan . brevity,'
-Asheville dailies had t.old- of the
passing of- Dr. W. M. Lyday, 69, a
pioneer physician, and the local
weeklies could not - amplify the
story for days, but the natives of
Blue Ridge country have a mys
terious intelligence system of
their own. The word had spread
throughout Transylvania county
long before the daily papers could
be delivered.
We happened to be in town
when the first report of the death
was received. Ten minutes later
we left and, after driving four
miles into the hills, found that
the word had preceded us, without
benefit of telephone, telegraph or
radio.
same as the history of medical
practice in this part of Western
North Carolina, were retold.
Dr. Bill Lyday represented the
second of four generations that
have ministered to the health of
these people. When his father,
Andrew J. Lyday, received his
license to practice after two years
at the University of Georgia and,
resisting the lure of the gold rush
of ’49 that then was in progress,
returned to his homeland he was
the only doctor between Asheville
and the South Carolina line, over
more than 40 miles of densely
wooded mountains and gullies of
the Blue Ridge range and across
the valley ti'ails to the Great
Smokies on the Tennessee border.
They still love to tell of Dr.
Andrew and Old Doc, his fleet and
faithful horse. Wherever there
was illness, at any time of night,

doctor’s home in the Penrose sec-

Slinging his saddlebag's carrying
all the medical and surgical equip- j
ment available nearer than Green
ville, S. C., Dr. Andrew would
swing astride with a characteristic
lurch—one leg was shorter than
the other—and it was then up to
his caller to catch him if he could.
Fgav horses in Western North Car
olina were sp fast or sure as Old
Doc and his rider needed only a
name to find any home in the dis
trict.
Such was the standard of med
ical service Dr. Bill and his
brother. Dr. Ell, learned from
their father and were to carry in
to a second generation.
Dr. Andrew died more than 30
years ago. Old Doc, following the
hack that served as hearse in
those days, led a procession of
hundreds of' sorrowful mountain
eers to the “buryin’ ” and stood
beside the open grave with bowed

“Getting the Most Out of Life”
