I My commission expires Jan. 11, 1930. ! tc his duties at the nation’s capital. { He ’eft heie with the impression that j his sojourn in the Land of the Sky J had been of great benefit to his ! health, while the many friends he has | made join the News in a Godspeed for | his future prosperity and happiness. j A telegram received nearly' two weeks ago by Rev. G. D. Chapman I called him to the bedside of his dying ‘ broth* r at Liberty, New York. Our [ people will remember this brother of ■ Mr. Chapman as a sojourner in Bre j vard tor several months .leaving here 1 nearly a year ago. His health im | proved materially while here, and had j i oe remained he would undoubtedly ' [have been alive today. He was buried j iss! Friday, leaving a wife and two I children. The Rev. Mr. Chapman re turned to his rectorship here on j Tuesday. Mr. John Galloway, one of the pwncipal investors in the Toxaway company, who is stopping for a sea s n at the Henning Inn ,says that if this is the Sunny South he is ready to go back north where houses are [warmer and overcoats thicker. Mrs. Perry Orr, a daugnter of Volney Hamilton of Grange, died very unexpectedly on Tuesday. She was 42 years old and had been mar ried only about a'year. The foundation walls for J. E. Clayton’s new business block are rapidly assuming shape and his cor ner has quite a business look. Albert Moore has rented the T. J. Neely farm and will make a crop there this summer. -< News comes that Archibald Aiken, I an old time resident of Brevard and well known in every section of this county, was buried on Sunday last. He died at his home. Bowman’s Bluff, j after a lingering illness of several! months. The largest amount of advertising space ever occupied by a business firm in Brevard wiil be found in this week’s columns. The new firm which has bought the R. R. Denver stock invites your patronage in a halt ' page ad. and we believe the persist-. enl use of printer's ink will make j their busimss venture a success. The firm is composed of well known bu>i- : nc-ss men of Brevard with ex-post-: master Cooper at the head. Our farmers are largely to blame <■- r the 1: v price they receive for . much of their produce. Fruit is: piled into a wagon bed without sort- [ ing, and is hauled over cough moun tain roads until it is bruised almost , beyond recognith n and then put eii1 the market at the price which the most inferior will bring. If pains j were taken to select the finest and I wrap each apple in paper as oranges are marketed the apples would bring as niuch as oranges. A man in this section has made a reputation for the country hams which he annually , puts on the market and finds n •; trouble in getting fifteen cents per pound while his neighbors are get ting eight aril a third cunts a pound. : If peachi- bloom when the moon is waning frost will not kill them, is an old adage which is believed by many in this mountain section, and this year seems to prove its truth. If 2S degrees will not kill peaches after they bloom there must be some reason for it. Srike Continues San Francisco— Violence in the two-months-old longshoremen’s strike at San Francisco resulted in the deaths of two men, the wounding of scores and brought steel helmeted troops to the scene Friday to curb disorders. The strike, which had tied up west coast shipping since May 9, broke into serious rioting when an attempt was made tc open the port by rn-’dng the strike picket blockade. tear gas, police clubs, gurs and rocks were used freely in hours of fighting. The Controversy centers chiefly around methods of hiring workers. 1 7 MEN’S SHIRTS--any color Washed-Ironed-Mended Spotlessly clean .... collars starched or unstarched, as you prefer.
