Tharp Wants Thief To
Have Complete Outfit
R. F. Tharp, who has had a
decorated Christmas tree in front of
his place on Broad street for the past
several days, makes the request that
the persons wro stole the colored
lights off his tree, come back and
get the wiring nnd the tree, as the
lights will not be effective without
the wiring, nnd without both the
wiring and lights, his tree will be of
little value, so ho invites the thief
who stole his lights to come bad; and
get the balance of the outfit.
Cement Blocks Placed
At Street Crossings
Cement markers have been placed
at the uptown street intersections in
Brevard, calling attention to the fact
that U-turns are in violation of the
law
The blocks, measuring about fif
teen inches In height and weighing
around two hundred pounds, are also
mute reminder’s that motorists arc
to steer clear. Avery Case, who built
the blocks for the town, asserts that
one trial at knocking over the new
blocks will convince a motorist that
the attempt is futile, and very prob
ably disastrous—to the motorist.

GOAL INS r FOR
BREVARD SEAL SALE
The annual Tuberculosis Christmas
Seal sale in Brevard and Transyl
vania county came to a close Friday,
with the belief by officials of the
P. T. A., sponsors of the sale, that
the goal of $100 was very nearly
reached, if not exceeding that
amount.
Reports from all the civic and
church organizations assisting in the
campaign have not yet been turned
in, hence it is impossible at this
early stage to determine the exact
results of the sale. The P. T. A.
president, Mrs. J. B. Pickelsimer, and
officials of the organization have ex
pressed gratification over the splen
did response from the public in the
sale.
The proceeds will be used mainly
for promotion of the school lunch
rooms in Brevard and the county,
and also for fighting tuberculosis
and other dread diseases among the
indigent of the county.
