County Board Splits
Big Note For Dickson

resolution was passed authorizing the

Charlotte. , , , .

thousand dollar paper into _ smaller
denominations the __ commissioners
were given a write-off of $15,000 in
nast due interest. The matter has
been under discussion for some time,
with the commissioners talcing the
stand that a material write-off or
reduction should be made by the
bond house in return for splitting
the note so that it oould be more
easily sold to local taxpayers when
paying taxes.
It is understood that the smaller
notes, dated as of Jan. 1, 1935, and
now past due, will he placed on the
market within the next few days and
made available to taxpayers.

Important Meetings
At C. of C. Thursday
Bi-weekly meeting of the Chamber
of Commerce wil! be held on, Thurs
day night of this week at 7:45
o’clock, and an urgent appeal is be
ing made by President E. J. Col
trane that all members and _ otber
people interested in work of the com
munity be in attendance.
Report of a special committee ap
pointed in a meeting held last
Thursday morning is expected to be
of interest. This committee was ap
pointed to see just what, if any
thing, could be done in regard to
operating the Brevard golf course
this summer.
Plans originally were for tnel
town to operate the course, the city i
fathers going on the assumption that I
labor for repairs could be secured (
through the FERA. IHowever, the:
labor could not be furnished, and j
unless the course is maintained ana
operated it reverts back to original j
ownership which would in ail prob- j
ability put Brevard on the map as i
a tourist town with no golf course.
Other matters of interest to the!
community are to be taken1 up,
hence the request by President Ccl
trane that as many people as pos
sible attend.
