The Times is carrying this week,
and will very probably, from week
to week until the general election in
November, carry political advertising
of some nature, either from indi
viduals or groups. These political ad
vertisements are carried strictly as
paid-in-advance advertising matter
and in no case have the sanction or
approval of this newspaper other
than such sanction or approval as is
given to any paid matter carried in
these columns. All such notices will
bo signed either by an individual
known to this newspaper or by an
organized group or organisation, and
the signature printed along with the
advertisement.

EUROPE:
PLEASE REMIT
The United states does not expect
to act nasty with European nations
about their war debts, but word is
again going across the waters to the
effect that the Hoover moratorium
never was intended to be a step to
wards cancellation and that if France
or any other nation continues to ig
nore its debt to the United States that
the lines of private credit and financ
ing will be tightened against that
kind of delinquents. The result will be
that securities of the foreign gov
ernments that ignore their obligations
are most apt to find a chilly recep
tion in the United States.
However, Great Britain, Czechslo
vakia, Italy, Latvia and Lithuania
are not in bad standing with the
United States treasury, as those
countries have made "token” pay
ments and have furnished evidence of
their intentions to pay their war
debts. Doubtless they are putting up
a "poor mouth” and quite likely they
will succeed with the twentieth cen
tury scheme of “so much on the dol
lar.”
Professor in Minneapolis advocates
return of spanking in order to have
a more decent young generation
O. K. by us—how about a red-white
blue whipping post on the court house
square to take care of some of the
older ones?
Large daily papers can’t possibly
have time to check into every adver
tisement that comes to their office
for publication, but we fail to see
how an advertisement like one carried
in a very popular daily on last Sun
day managed to get by an intelligent
person . . - “information as to old
age pension for a stamp.” Again we
remind our people to pay no atten
tion to such advertisements or to any
letter or circular that comes to their
hands. There are several proponents
of the old age pension movement in
the United States Congress and Sen
ate who will “keep on the job” and
our own congressmen and senators
will, if asked to, look after the inter
ests of our people without either “a
dime or stamp.” Mr. H. P. Jewel of
Brevard R-3 has a letter from Con
gressman Weaver, Senator Reynolds
anu Senator Bailey, and if there are
those who wish any information on
the matter either of the three above
named gentlemen will give it without
cost.
When ye editor was a kid such an
expletive as "I’ll be damned” was one
sure way of getting a taste of the
razor strep, paddle, or what have
you. Parents did not use such lan
guage around children, and further,
they kept their kids away from peo
ple who were known to be so in
clined. Maybe the order is changing
. . . anyway, we neard the expression
three times at the ‘‘big tent show” in
Rocman last Saturday night, and
there were more youngsters present
than adults. We would very politely
suggest to the city fathers of the
hustling little town of Rosman that
hereafter they refuse to allow such
things us shows of the type that was
there last week in the town. The
jokes (?) we heard at the session at
tended were of two classes—either
stale as Noah’s Ark or too suggestive
of smuttiness to be told. Advertised
as funmakers, the outfit appeared to
be more of a pain in the neck, and
from viewpoint of this newspaper,
the community would have been a lot
better off in many respects if the
“big show” had spent its week in some
other locality.
X MARKS THE
SPOT ....
Despite the warning that was is
sued several days ago by the board of
county commissioners to the effect
that anyone damaging shrubbery
about the court house grounds would
be punished by law, some thoughtless
person has taken a knife and carved
a deep X on one of the beautiful
maples iu front of the court house. !
Of course the act was done by »|
thoughtless person, someone who does '
not realize that the court house lawn ,
will, if properly cared for and1
properly respected by people of the
community, soon be one of the beauty,
spots of the county. Let’s make our ,
x’b somewhere else.
“Poison Liquor in Bottles Kills ■
Stfv^n” pays daily news headline. ,
Poison liquor in fruit jars and bat- .
wings around Brevard makes lots'
of folk sick. i;

Charlotte had a wonderful (?) meet- :
ing one day last week and all were (l
of the mind (apparently) that there
would be no paid poll workers in the
primary to be held June 2nd. Very
laudable indeed. But came Saturday
afternoon when the move was pre
supposed to be ratified. Nothing do
ing. according to the newspapers.
Meeting was calied, but no quorum
was present of the executive commit
tee to ratify the movement.
A good friend of this newspaper
swore off drinking, joined the church
and has been doing excellently until
last Sunday when 3ome lousy, de
generate. filthy, low’-down, cheap
dastardly ;: bootlegger sold him
some boose, and off the water-wagon
he went. We know it was not com
pulsory that he buy the filthy stuff
and drink it and we also know that
he is old enough to know better, but
the man had a weakness for drink,
! and the fellow who let him have the
j stuff (oh, yes, he lives in Brevar
1 and sells liquor to boys, girls, or any
body else that has the price—they all
do) knew that this particular man
. “couldn't take it” and get by, and
I we move that the low-down raseal
who sold this man bootleg liquor be
taken out, tarred and feathered and
ridden out of town on a rail.

Experience In building
nearly ten million cars confirms It. And
the record of over 3,000,000 Chevrolet Six
owners removes any shadow of doubt
about It: The only way to got real
economy In a low-priced car la to
insist on SIX cylinders and OVER
HEAD valves.
SIX cylinders—no more/-because,
extra cylinders mean extra cost for gas,
oil, upkeep and parts. OVERHEAD
valves—nothing else!—lor the same
good reason that airplanes use thorn.
And speedboats. And racing cars. They
