Commissioners In Meet
ing Here Monday

by the county board of commissioners
In meeting here Monday.
Change of listing date was made at
the request of County Accountant

vember. Heretofore. Mr. I.yday said,
it has been next to impossible to have
the books ready in time to allow those
tax payers to take advantage of the
discount.
Also, it was pointed out. the state
regulations call for the listing to start
on tile first Monday In April unless
there is valid reason for postponement.

Most Veterans Have
Filed Bonus Papers
Most of the World War veterans of
Transylvania county have filed their
applications for bonds to replace their
bonus certificates, and with possibly
a very few exceptions, claims for ad
just i" | compensation certificates which
is first step in receiving the baby
bonds, have been filed.
It is estimated that nearly one hun
dred fifty soldiers have been assisted
in filling their papers out in The Times
office, and Dr. Carl Hardin had filled
out over fifty before he was injured
several weeks ago and was removed
to Oteen hospital for treatment.
Veterans, or dependants of deceased
\ eterans, who have not filed applica
tions for adjusted compensation certi
ficates, are invited to see either Chief
liort H. Freeman or any member of
The Transylvania Times force at once.
Veterans who have heen interviewed
in The Times office have generally
expresed the view that home ownership
will be materially Increased with the
payment of the bonds, with a number
of the veterans already securing op
tions on small pieces of property, final
settlement to be made upon receiving
the bonds. Others will do repairs about
their homes and farms; still others
will Invest in new enterprises of one
kind and another, and manw of the
I vets will just "pay up and start over’
' with the money they receive.
Ex-soldiers here will receive better!
than one hundred thousand dollars in
the negotiable bonds.

Special Session Of
legislature Seen As
Vobable By Solons
• ntativi W. M Henry and
..ator Ralph Ramsey are of the opin
ion that a special session of the legisla
ture will be called by the governor
to bring the state under the federal
social security program.
Neither Mr. Ramsey nor Mr. Henry
"would enjoy" spending a month, or
posibly two months in the state capitol
during the hot weather season, but
both state that If the special session is
called, they will attend.
If thii session were to only consider
the security program, the Brevard
men say, there would be but little
drawback to a special session, but they
fear that once the legislature is called
Into session, that another long drawn
out meeting will be Imminent.
Governor Ehringhaus was In Wash
ington last week conferring with the
North Carolina delegation there, and
while no statement was Issued follow
ing the meeting to the effect that a
special session would be called, yet
there was no denial of the necessity
.Ji,r such a procedure, which Is taken
Jjpnerally to mean that the special
vs*,sion will be called.

Indian Name for French Broad River
Has Many Different Interpretations
TAH-KEE-OS-TEE, Indian name for
the French Broad river, is interpreted
by different authorities to mean nearly
the same thing, but still slightly dif
ferent.
Two out of five people who have
been to The Times office since last
week in regard to moaning of "Tah
keeosteo” gave "racing river” as Indian
meaning of the word. Mrs. Jasper Orr
and Dr. A. \V. Long, cited historical
authorities for “racing river.”
Mrs. T. H. Shipman sent in a note
saying that the word, the best she
could determine, meant "siient waters,"
and that Davidson river was known In
Indian'language as ECUSTA cr "laugh
ing waters."
Oliver H. Orr referred to a volume of
"North Carolina Poems" by E. C.
Brooks that named the French Broad
"racing water” as Indian name. Mr.
Orr said, however, that the French
made a trip from the Ohio valley into
Western North Carolina and gave it
the present name.
Dr. E. S. English said that "river of
rest" was given the French Broad years
ago by Cherokees who came into this
section enroute to the lowlands for
basket material. Indians told Jim Clay
ton, an uncle of Dr. English that by
reason of the fact that the French
Broad was oftime out of Its banks
when the Indians reached this section,
and that sometimes camp would have
to be made for several days while the
river was subsiding, the Indians dubbed
it "river jof rest." Davidson river was
known to the Indians, Dr. English said
his uncle told him, as ECUSTA, or
"galloping waters.”
Mrs. Jasper Orr sent in a verse from
a poem by L. A. E. Stikeleather, which
designated the French Broad as “racing
water." and also gave a possible reason
for this county’s name of Transylvania.
The verse reads:
"Mid fair ’sylvania’s glens, where Is
your source
And where an Infant brook, you start
upon your course
Of league on league that stretches to
the sea.
l:i thought I visit you today,
Tahkeeostee."
Mrs. Norma Chapman King of Kings
Mountain, sent in a poem which gives
the name of "Racing Water” to the
liver. The poem follows:
KACIXO WATER
i By Mary Bayard Clarke)
Racing water, w'10 can paint, theo,
With thy scenery wild and grand’'
it would take a magic pencil
Guided by a master hand.
IP're are towering, rugged mountains.
Granite rocks all scarred and gray,
Nature's altars whence her incense
Floats in wreaths of mist away.
At thy feet the murmuring' waters
Now are singing songs of praise,
Or in sonorous no*es triumphant
A majestic pacn raise.
Down the canyon's rocky gorges
Now they wildly, madly sweep,
As. with laughing shout exultant,
O’er the rocks they Joyous leap.
Then in calm and limpid beauty
Still and deep they silent flow,
With the verdant bank o’erhanging
Pictured In the depths below.
Pulsing from the heart of Nature,
Here thy "Hot Spring’s" genial gush
There, like stream from Alpine glacier
Down the mountains coldly rush.
Tah-kee-os-tee—Racing Water—
Was thy sonorous Indian name
But as “French Broad" thou art written
On the white man’s roll of fame.
Perish that—but live the other!
For on every dancing wave
Evermore Is shone the beauty
Of the name the Red Man gave.
MRS. TINSLEY FIRM BELIEVER
IN CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING
Classifed advertising in The
Transylvania Times pays big divi
dends.
Mrs. John C. Tinsley of Maple
street is one of the best boosters
for the little 25-cent ads this paper
has, because Mrs. Tinsley has thor
oughly tried out the pulling power
of the classified column and finds
that it pays.
Each storing for the past six
gears Mrs. Tinsley has been using
the want ad column to tell folk
about the shrubs and plants she
has for sale, and each year her
business is increasing. In Mrs.
Tinsley's words—"Most people
know about the things l have to
sell, but I find it pays to remind
them each spring through the pa
per that it is time to s<’t out shrubs
and of course the fart that I want
to supply them."
