UOLL CALL SHOULD
APPEAL TO PEOPLE
Smiling of the annual Red Cross (
Roll Call within a short time by the (
Roll Call committee for Transylvania |
county should be looked on with ^
favor by every person in this county. ,
The National Red Cross has done
i ut Id work in this county, aiding |
hundreds of needy families during ^
the past two years, when there was
no help coming from other sources.
The county, as a unit, was unable
to provide for the people here in the
tinu . f stress that were witnessed
in '• and early 1033, and had it
not en for the help >ecured from
mill irough the National Red Cross
ma people would have gone hungry
and cold.
Every person in the county will be
given an t pportunity to enroll, at
leist effort will be made by those in
i barge , tin roll call to present the
rail'; to every person, and those who
do happen to be' missed by the can
vassers should feel it a privilege to
seek out a representative and take
out a membership.

OTHEU PEOPLE DOS'T
UKE ( HEAP SHOWS !
To those who think The Transyl-1
i an in Times is old-fashioned, sissy, j
eruzy g. ndy-gondy. and plain j
f „i taking a stand against cheap j
road shows and sideshows, as we
have been contemptuously referred,
- to by some in recent weeks, we again ]
point to another section of North
Carolina that has “learned by see
ing".. Uncle Abe. columnist for The
Waynesville Mountaineer, speaks his
piece like this—
In all seerusness. folks, it wehre
(join1 to have a rale County hair,
we’ll have to let our buzmess men,
farmers stock razors, school teach
ers, an’ house wives take charge u\
it an' not the show nun an’ gam

cers had to take one or two of the
show men off She grounds fir takin
the children's money with gnmblin
masheens. Hurraw fer Jake Lowe!
Well. Mr. Kditur. I’ve not got
much i» say 'bout the Cirkus, 'cept

coarse the piece hers, “jus’ kum along

“They say” there wuz some ruff

the rigger dances, an ’so foarth, an
that a few uv our town wimmin got

SOMEBODY “ERRED"
ABOUT PROHIBITION
Back in the days when there was
i hue and cry to repeal the prohibi
tion laws and thereby “_stop the
terrible crime wave, cut out the kid
naping, the gangsters, the under
world in general,” etc., etc., The
Times warned its readers that they
were being misled.
We hate to take the "I told you so”
attitude, but cannot refrain from
pointing out the proven fallacy of
the then blah-blah arguments of
those who persisted in having the
Volstead Act repealed at any cost.
Big black headlines in daily news
papers during the past week, telling
(.f kidnapers, gangsters and holdup
men arc proof of our assertion that'
somebody “erred” about prohibition. |
We have liquor in most states, we |
have beer in practically all states,:
and the crime wave continues.
—
"When the frost is on the;
pumpkin”, .punkin pie is not far off..
This week we refrain from men-]
turning our pet one-way street via the ■■
post office, and instead call atten- .
tion of our readers to the danger of j
speeding on North Broad street, be- i
tween the square and King Creek
bridge. This stretch is used by col
lege students, and one can hardly
pick any time during the day when
there are not more than half dozen ,
pe pie on this street. Better be care- :
fill as you come over the little rise ;
from intersection of Caldwell and
North Broad, and Is you turn the

GISSENG
(Charlotte Observer)
Wild ginseng has been long a
ource of revenue for the mountain
pi., who were inclined to gather it

i,,.. root and “yerb” business at the ,
l-l Wallace warehouse at Statesville
But httle has been heard of ginseng
■at lie ling in recent days, hut a moun
.in pioneer by name of Duncan,
■pointing a small farm at Rosmun,
eighbor town to Brevard, has ven
mod on an enterprise that is going
.... i,i- heard from. Ginseng has always
■ ought a fancy price and Duncan
t the idea that cultivated ginseng
uld do still better. The obstacle in
;!„■ way was the high cost of seed,
uicaii paid one dollar a seed with
,,ich to start his farm and has care
■ llv cultivated a patch. It required
oo years to bring his “patch into ,
.■unity, but he has succeeded to
. 1. an extent that he is anticiput
a profit now.. A specimen of his
mated plant was exhibited at the
It sman Fair, as we learn by The
i'ransvlvania Times, am! it exeiteu
■ ■ It e mment. Probabl: Mr. Dun
. .hi Iris tartod a new industry that

euiitain people. The market price

ITS GREATEST PROBLEM
(Greenville News)
F' ur million families in the United I
Mates were dependent upon relief
payments during the month of
August, which showed an increase of i
200,000 over July, and the number is j
continuing to rise, according to re-,
authorities.
lV-pite the undoubted improve-!
m.-tit in economic conditions gen
t rally as compared with a year and (
a bail! ago, we face the prospect ot a ;
greater burden of relief work during
the coming winter than at any time
during the depression. Millions will
continue to be out of employment and ■
the number of those who have ox- I
hausted their own resources has.
steadily increased.
It is becoming clear that a more ,
vigorous effort must in some way be
made to stimulate the efforts of these
people tv provide for themselves. It
is safe to say that in a great many
instances some means of making a
living would be found if there were
no relief disbursements. We must
ek by every possible means in the
administration of relief activities to
nereis; this sen-e of responsibility
on the part of these dependents to
■nke the utmost effort to fend for
themselves. It it not enough merely
to keep ‘chiselers" off the rolls, im
portant as it is to do that. So long
ns large sums of public money arc
paid out for relief purposes, it is in
evitable that numerous people will
c ntinue to be dependent upon them,
and conscientiously too, for such dis
tributions have the natural effect
upon human nature of dulling the
personal initiative to seek methods of
self-reliance. We cannot stop the
i-..!;tf distributions on that account,
of course, but there must in some
way be brought into play a force
<hat will effectively encourage ei
i orts to become independent of these
disbursements. How that can best be
done is a difficult problem, but it is
tire mest important one that fcicc
