WE CAN’T HELP IT
MR. MAIL CARRIER.
Said one cf the rural mail carr
liers to the editor of The Times
last week:
••Why don’t you do something
uboiv the tremendous amount of
but inass that is going on* of this
county every day to the mail order
houses? Why, I deliver more stuff
to patrons of my mail route than
any business in Brevard handles,
and all th? stuff I carry out is paid
for right when I deliver it.’
Sony, Mr. Mail Man, ’tain’t our
lault, and wo can’t help it. We hate
to sec the money going to Chicago,
New York, and Philadelphia, and
Atlanta and St. Louis, and those
other big cities as much as you do,
a::u ire hate for our people to get
stung iwry so often with inferior
goods upon which a refund is often
mighty hard to get, and very fre
ourntly tin get'able at nil, but ‘taint
our fault.
~TI: • C low.- over in Chicago and
cth v places who are getting all the
business want it. and want it bad
. ,.U;;h to go after it. They spend
lots of money in getting new custo
mers to buy front them ar.J then
pend m. r keeping those same cus
tomers trading regularly... smaxt
fellows.
We know they charge higher
pi ice- in many instances ;han the
folks in Brevard would charge for
the fame article, but ‘taint our
fault and ycu can’t blame them for
wanting to do a lot of business in
older to take care of their tremend
ous overhead and fixed charge? of
business operation. They are in busi
ness to make money, and know well
that to make money they must have
a big turnover, henee they get folks
in Transylvania and other counties
just like ours to buy their wares,
ami every year they grow, but 'taint
i ur fault. * *
Did ycu ever note, Mr. Mail Car
rier, how often these same mail or
der folks send out catalogues and
special price sheets to the people
that you serve? Well, notice it for
the next few weeks and you'll find
they believe ''it pays to advertise."
A SAD STATE
OF AFFAIRS.
Early travelers in Brevard Sun
day morning had the very unpleas
ant experience of stepping gingerly
around the filthiest of repugnancy—
vomit on the sidewalks and about
public places.
Saturday night’s debauchery and
excesses were evidenced by the mess
on the streets, one particularly of
fensive pile of the spewed filth being
in the door of the post office.
It is nothing' pleasant to think of,
and at this season of the year it
might be said that more pleasant
things could be written about in the
home newspaper, but there must be
an arousing of public sentiment be
fore such things will be remedied,
and whether it is nice or no, your
attention is being called to the sad
true facts.
Things in this line are too loose
in Brevard. Somebody is lying down
on the job, unless perchance, people
of the community iare satisfied to
“let ’er rock along," and we are of
the opinion that such is not the case.
Barroom facilities are being af
forded in Brevard. Who is supplying
the demand we are unable to say,
but there are residents of the town
who do know and who for some reas
on are afraid or too cowardly to
tell. The old, time-worn excuse that
“it’s a job for the officers” is no
good in this case—it is purely a
case for respectable people in the
community; people who should grow
tired of such things and DO SOME
THING about it. This newspaper is
confident that there is not a harder
working nor a more conscientious of
ficer than Chief Freeman, and from
first hand knowledge this paper is
also certain that everything in the
power of the local force is being
done to combat the evil, but to no
seeming avail.
It i-. not a matter of the 18th
amendment, nor of state laws, but
one that must be handled by the
better class citizens of the commun
ity; those folks who should be in
terested in making the town at least
a decent place. From evidences of
Saturday night’s bunch in Brevard
a “close-in” place was disbursing
bootleg whiskey, and was having a
brisk trade.
The practice can'be stopped if the
people here want it stopped, and
have enough intestinal fortitude to
do as they should.
It’s just a matter of taste, anyv^y,
—use the sidewalks to walk on ot
vomit on, people here can have
whichever they choose.
Looks like there must be some-!
thing like the Ku Klux Klan organ
ized in Brevard—not to “run things”
—but to kind of slow a few things
down.
Huey Long has made a Long fight
in Long style, anj it locks like he
is about to be gone for a Long time.
“Liquors Being Rushed To Meet
Demand After Repeal Tuesday” says
a daily newspaper headline. Humph,
there was a rush here Saturday
night, that supplied the demand and
then some.
Well, ye scribe failed to g-t the
possum and turkey for Thanksg v -
ing dinner, but we come pretty near
—a duck from the Hon. Bill Brecse,
an invite to dinner with the Br.t
tains, a rabbit from Jerry Jerome,
and a pumpkin from Mrs. Judson
Corn. Pretty nice, eh?
Toil your friends to come to Bre
vard next summer and take a swim
in our new swimming pocl-and
then drive over the new Pickens
highway (bting built before Christ
mas) and then see a real view from
the top of Pisgah National Forest
(over 284, started this week). Sounds
good.
Al Smith’s ‘baloney” seems te
have soured on the public’s stomach,
and Roosevelt goes like a man run
ning a race to win. Hurrah foi
Franklin D. and p-h-u-t-t to Al.
A\ C. IN THE FOREFRONT
Editor The Times:
Hurrah for the good oid NortY
State! Some o't the greatest men o:
the nation today are proud of th<
fact that they are Tar Heels.
From the very foundation of oui
government back in the Colonia
days down to the present time, Nortl
Cr.iolina has always stood in th<
ve; y forefront in every progressivt
m: vement for the protection am
bet' rrr.oni cf humanity. And it i;
no wonder that so many men in al
i-al' ol life love to refer to Nortl
Carolina as their native state.
Of course there are those wh,
would try to make you believe tha1
Noith Carolina will be overrun witl
;a great hoard of 'mrr ruuneis, boot
! loggers, moonshiners, or by what
.ever name you may wish to cal
them. But from every indication 1
i seems that the opposite is going t
'be the result. The best people of th
nation today are turning their eye
i to North Carolina.
Mr. Cale Burgess said in a speed
in that great convention in Greens
boiv that his mail is full of letter
from some of the best people in al
parts cf the United States askinj
about real estate in North Carolina
They want to move to a state when
1 the citizens are not liquor mad.
1 North Carolina has twice spoke,
i in tones of thunder that ought to tx
understood. In the year 1908, ever
before our good women were allowec
ito vote, North Carolina voted out
' liquor by 44,000 majority. And now
! again by a vote two and a half t:
one we have showed to the world
! where we stand on the great moral
issue.
i We will of course have blockading
! bootlegging, murder and bloodshed
and all kinds of evil so long as Satan
| makes his abode in the hearts and
lives of men and women. But our be
! coming a partner in this great evil
I will not make it any better.
! S'- let me insist thet we never
again fold our arms and go to sleep,
but let’s continue to work for the
'protection of our homes, our wives
I and children, our country and our
l King until the final victory is won.
Very respectfully,
Chas W. Henderson
Lake Toxaway
WHAT IS TEMPERANCE
One of the most specious argu
ments advanced by those who ad
!vocated the repeal of the 18th
amendment was that, made under
the guise of “true temperance.” The
wets arrogate to themselves the
nomenclature made famous by the
crusaders for abolishment of the
liquor traffic. They argue that al
cohol, a habit-forming poisonous
drug, can be taken without injury
to the human system, thus ignoring
the findings of science.
It is interesting to see what the
dictionary gives as a definition:
“Temperance is moderation in or
abstinence from the use of intoxi
cants.” The Woman’s Christian Tem
perance Union defines temperance, as
“moderate use of the things that are
lawful, total abstinence of things
that aro harmful." The great tem
perance movement for sixty years
has based its work on this defini
tion, as all intelligent readers know.
Shall we be deceived by such fall
acious propaganda as the liquor ad
vocates are sending out by the
1 ens? We repeat, the battle between
hose who are putting appetite and
Treed before health, morals, and best
ocial and economic conditions—the
battle has only begun. How shall
THE BEST FOR NORTH CARO
LINA be secured? By building up a
trong public sentiment to support
everyone who is working towards
his end. Let’s do our part.
