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. Jean Adams Haynes Brevard, Oct 7.
