PIPE DREAM ON
CHICKEN RAISING
Seven hundred farm families in
the county each with a flock of ons
hundred hens iff the better type (a
dream) would do something like
this: Each hen laying fifty per cent,
a very' common average for a good
laying breed, would produce thirty
five thousand eggs daily, which if
sold for a cent each, another low
average, would be a daily revenue of
three hundred fifty dollars per day,
two thousand four hundred fifty dol
lars week, seventy-three thousand
five o indred dollars per month, eight
•hun.l -d eighty-two thousand dollars
per ear—nearly a million dollars.
My .oh my, interest on that amount
at six per cent would be fifty-two
thousand two hundred dollars per
year.
Wi ll all our folks were chicken
minded for a few years.
ANOTHER CONVERT
TO THE SALES TAX
The Hendersonville Times-News
has joined the ranks of daily news
papers that have become converted
to the fact that the state sales tax,
and this only after the newspaper
has dug up actual dollar-and-cents
fact- upon which it bases its conclu
sion to become a convert.
Ot'time called the “nuisance tax"
or “the governor’s graft’’ by some of
our people here, and possibly the
same monikers applied in Henderson
county, there is plenty of room for
criticism of some phases of the sales
tax. The method of collection is poov.
expensive, and to a certain degree,
unbusinesslike, but when one looks
at the tax bills and figures out the
saving to such counties as Henderson
and Transylvania insofar as the
school operating costs are concerned
the conversion of The Times-News
doc- not eem so out of the ordinary.
Following is the article from the
Hendersonville daily:
THE SALES TAX
\< , n of the original opponents
of’tiw miles tax in Henderson county,
The Times-News is impressed by
figures which have come to light m
late discussion of the subject.
The figures show that the sales tax
collected in Henderson county tor the
first twelve months after it was im
posed amounted to $46,000. This is
j ut little more than one-halt of the
amount « f tax levied for the support
of schools the last year that a county
tax was collected for that purpose.
Thai vear the direct tax amounted
to *85.000. When the larger part ol
the burden of support of schools was
home by the county it was necessary
to collect as much as $150,000 in
countv taxes to maintain the schools.
This newspaper fails to see how
the peopii of Henderson county are
burdened or injured by the sales tax
in a financial way. One may object
t the principle of the sales tax, but
it !• dear that it has relieved the tax
paver- of Henderson county irom the
payment of forty to fifty thousand
dollars tu direct taxes.
Another advantage which t h i s
county enjoys under the sales tax is
de> ived 1 r'in the fact that a huge
p u t of the stiles made in this county
are made to outsiders; they are made
ti, -summer residents ami visitors who
come from outside the county oi
state ami -pond here money which
was made elsewhere.
When the stiles tax is considered as
a financial matter, Henderson county
people have no good reasons lor con
demning if. In fact, all our people
sh- u! ! be out Costing for it, in view
of the certainty that the actual cost
of the sales tax to residents of the
county is nrobably not more than a
fourth of the $85,000 than formerly
paid in direct taxes to support the
\V hope our readers like our new
features—the Sunday school lesson
in .1 the erial story by Zane Grey.
Net-fics--. tu say. these added features
to the homo paper cost money, but
wc 1.. li. vr our folk will appreciate
our t-i’for- to gi'-e them a better
pc per and retaliate by supporting the
papo" better.

LEST WE FORGET....
WEAR .4 BLUE FLOWER
Sixteen years ago if a member of
Uncle Sam’s Doughboy outfit came
upon the streets of Brevard with an
armful of blue flowers, asking that
each individual buy one to help a dis
abled buddy, he could not have pass
ed them out fast enough. Great
crowds would have gathered, seeking
a chance to show their appreciation
of the valiant services that had been
given—sixteen years ago.
On Saturday of this week, high
school girls will be acting emissaries
for the Doughboy of ’17 and ’18, ask
ing that we delve down deep into the
far remote corner of our hearts and
remember, not in a big way, but just
remember for a brief moment the
swelling pride we once had in doing
“anything in the world” for our boys.
Wear a blue flower Saturday, not
because the dime or quarter we spend
will mean- so much in a financial
way, but to prove to the world that
we are not slackers, that we are still
proud of the fellows who were
willing to do their bit for a dollar a
day, going through a living hell, dy
ing in the face of blazing guns, under
going privations, far away from
their loved ones, completely divorced
from the luxuries of life, and often
from the barest of necessities—day
after day, week after week. Letting
their personal affairs “go hang” while
we who stayed here waxed fat in the
added wealth that seemed to come as
if by magic. Let’s wear a blue flower
next to our hearts just for the day.
Surely sixteen years is not such a
long time that we have forgotten en
tirely. If it is, let’s remember Satur
day—wear a blue flower.
“What the Railroad Means to
Franklin” was topic of an enlighten
ing article in The Franklin Press last
week. What the railroad means to
Brevard and Transylvania county is
inestimable—try to figure it out for
vourself and you will come to the
conclusion that without a railroad
our community would be-think it
over, and then think of a way to help
make the road a better paying
proposition.

Lesson for November 11
THE CHRISTIAN CITIZEN
LESSON TEXT—Galallans 5:1»-2C.
GOLDEN TEXT—Then »ald Jesus un
lo him. Tut up again thy sword Into
his place: for all thoy that take the
aword shall perlih with the sword.—
Matthew 2G:f>S.
PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus' Law In
Ono Word.
JUNIOR TOPIC—God's One Law.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
IC—How to Be a Peacemaker.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC—Thinking Peace Instead of War.
Doubtless tbe thought of the lesson
committee was to take advantage of
this memorial occasion to Inculcate in
the hearts of the youth the spirit of
pence which grows out of a heart of
love. It should be borne In mind that
this value can only be a practical
reality as the people are brought Into
a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus
Christ. Love Is the fruit of the Spirit
made operative In the heart of the
regenerate.
Paul, having shown in chapters
three and four of this epistle that the
believer Is free from the law us a
means of Justification, In our present
lesson makes the practical application,
of the doctrine. The divine method of
doing away with war Is to secure the
regeneration of Individuals.
1. Christian Freedom (vv. 13-15).
L It Is not an occasion to the flesh
1 (r. 13). Liberty Is not license. The
notion that when one is free from the
law he is free from constraint Is wick
edly erroneous. License of the flesh
means not merely the Indulgence of
the flesh In actual sinning, but In the
expression of a self-centered life.
2. By love serve one another (vv.
13a-15).
Freedom from the Mosaic law means
slavery to the law of love. Love thus
becomes the fulfillment of the law.
II. Walking In the Spirit (vv. 16-18).
This discloses the secret of how a
life of service to another can be lived.
Walking In the Spirit results In
1. Loving service to others (v. 13).
2. Victory over the flesh (vv. 18. 17).
By flesh Is meant the corrupt nature
of man expressing itself in the realm
of sense and self. The renewed man
has two natures, between which is go
ing on a mortal conflict. The Chris
tian must choose between good and |
evil. Notwithstanding the reality of :
this deadly conflict, victory Is sure If j
one chooses the good.
III. Tha Worka of the Flesh (vv.
19-21).
By the works of the flesh is meant
the operation of the carnal nature.
The one who chooses to live according
to the impulses and desires of Ids
natural heart will be practising the
following sins:
1. Sensuality (v. 19).
The sins enumerated here are prac
ticed in the body, and are
n. Fornication (the word adultery is
omitted from the host manuscripts).
Fornication includes all sexual sins
in the married and unmarried stale, b.
Uncleanness, which includes nil sensu
al sins, open or secret, in thought
or deed. c. Lasciviousness, which
means the wanton, reckless indulgence
in the shameful practices of the flesh.
2. Irrellglon (v. 20). These acts
take place in the realm of the spirit,
and are a. Idolatry, the worshiping of
idols. I). Witchcraft or sorcery, all
dealing with the occult, such as mag
ical arts, spiritism, necromancy.
3. Sins of the temper (vv. 20-21).
These take place in the sphere of the
mlml, and are n. Hatred, h. Vari
ance, Including all strife and conten
tious. c. Emulations, including all
types of Jealousy, d. Wrath, meaning
hursts of passion, e. Seditions, which
mean factions in the state, f. Here
sies. meaning factions in tin- church,
g. Envylngs. h. Murders.
•1. Sins of excess (v. 21). a. Drunk
enness, indulgence in intoxicating
liquors, h. Bevellings. Acts of dis
sipation under the influence of liquor.
All who practice such sins shall lie
J excluded from toe Kingdom of God (I
j Cor. 0:10).
IV. I IIC » iw'fc VI me Vfyn IV \>v.
j 22-21).
This Indicates action in tile renlni of
life. It is Hip product of the Holy
Spirit indwelling the believer.
1. Love to God and Man.
2. Joy—glad-hearted ness because of
what God has done.
3. Peace with God and Man.
4. Longsufferlng, taking Insult and J
injury without murmuring.
5. Gentleness, meaning kindness to
others.
0. Goodness, doing good to others.
7. Faith, believing God and com
mitting everything to him.
8. Meekness, which essentially means
submission to God.
0. T-'mperance, seif-control in nil
thiugs.
Against those who thus live, there
Is no law.
