GAME WARDEN SLAIN BY “SPOTLIGHTERS" Mills River Man Shot Down Early Sunday Morning —Reward Offered Joseph 1>. Whitaker, Henderson coun ty gamg, warden was shot and killed al most instantly early Sunday morning near his home in the Mills River sec tion, by an alleged spotlight hunter. Whitaker was shot through the chest about 4 a. m. Sunday as he approached a car which stopped near a house on the north Mills River road, where he and a brother, Bavid, were spending the night. ■ The car drove off at a rapid rate after the shooting and its occupants were not Identified. The car was described as a black coupe, probably a Ford V-8, or Chrysler make, and is believed to have contained two men. An autopsy revealed that the game warden was shot with u small calibre bullet, probably from a rifle, but it was believed that the recovered bullet would be of little assistance in the investiga tion. It struck a bone and was damaged. Friends and associates of Whitaker were able to throw little light on the slaying, and pointed out that, although Whitaker had made many arrests in the performance of his duties, he was high ly regarded even by persons he had brought to trial. John D. Chalk, commissioner of game and inlard fisheries, of Raleigh, said, following the shooting, that the game wardens in that section would lie dou bled, and that every effort would be tuken to apprehend and punish the slay er of the warden who was rated as among the best In the state service.

Girl Scout Edition of The Transylvania Times . The Times takes pleasure in presenting various phases of the Girl Scout work in Brevard. The articles and poems have been written by members of the Scout troops in Bre vard, and their friends. STAFF Editors-in-Chlef .. Mary Alice Fea-ster Harleston McIntosh Assistant Editors . Helen Galloway Helen Fullbrlght Sports Eilitor . Janet Jenkins Publicity Editors.Jeanette Austin Lillian Zachary TROOP LEADERS Captain . Miss lama Allison First Lieutenant . .’.Emma Denver Second Lieutenants ..Antoinette Geiger Rachel Orr Girl Scout Promise On my honor, 1 will try: To do my duty to God and my country, To help other people at all times; To obey the Scout Laws. Girl Scout Laws 1. A Girl Scout's honor is to be trusted. 2. A Girl Scout is loyal. 3. A Girl Scout’s duty is to be useful and to help others. 4. A Girl Scout is a friend to all, and sister to every other Girl Scout. 5. A Girl Scout is courteous. 6. A Girl Scout is a friend to ani mals. 7. A Girl Scout obeys orders. S. A Girl Scout is cheerful. 9. A Girl Scout is thrifty. 10. A Girl Scout is clean In thought, word and deed. Motto: Be Prepared. Slogan: Do a good turn daily. To these the Girl Scout voluntarily subscribes when she becomes a Girl Scout. They form the Girl Scouts’ stan dard of endeavor. The Ideal Scout Girls of honor we must be, And loyal to our country; We find that to help others is always best. Wherever we travel, from East to West. We’re courteous to all, you may be sure, In helping others their life to endure. A Girl Scout is the animals’ friend; She obeys orders and commands; She smiles and is cheerful ever. Does she waste time or property? No, never. And last, a Girl Scout's thoughts and deeds are clean: Her words are kind and never mean. v First Aid One of the things which the leaders of our Girl Scout troop stress is that of being able to administer First Aid. It is really most important that every boy and girl, whether a Scout or not. know how to help others iu sickness or accident. To meet the requirements for a Second Class Scout, a girl must know how to treat a fainting person, how to bandage a sprained ankle with a Scout tie: she must he able to put on a sling, treat a minor injury, stop severe bleed ing, remove a splinter, remove a tpeck from the eye. treat a burn and treat ivy poison. She learns these things ant? others through the leaders. In the First Class requirements, an advanced knowledge of First Aid, is nec essary. before a Second Class Scout be comes a First Class Scout. We must learn to bandage all parts of the body. We must know how to treat wounds. Iwoken bones, and dislocations. We are taught to transport an injured person on an improvised stretcher and to meet other emergencies with perfect compo sure. which comes only from a knowl edge of what should be done and how. Would not this knowledge be most use ful to you, in case of accident? We. the Girl Scouts of Gypsy Troop, Invite all girls of ten years or more to join our troop and learn of practical and useful things: our leaders are train ed to help you.—Harleston McIntosh. The Girl Scout Sign And Salute The idea of the sign has come down from the days of knighthood and chiv alry when armed knights greeted friend ly knights by raising the right hand, palm open, as a sign of friendship. The sign is made with the palm for ward, the first three fingers extended, and the littie finger held down by the thumb. The hand is usually shoulder high. Like the trefoil, the three extended fingers represent the threefold promise. The salute is given by raising the right hand to me temple, the first three fingers extended and the little finger held down by the thumb. The body is , supposed to lie erect when this salute is given. The salute is used whenever the promise is given, and at other formal occasions. When the Girl Scouts meet they may use the salute in greeting. If In uniform, a Girl Scout stands at at tention and salutes the flag as It is hoisted or lowered and when it passes In parade. A Girl Scout may salute when receiving proficiency badges of special rewards. When a flag Is soiled and torn, It should be burned, not thrown away. The flag, when put up, should never touch the ground. In order to give due respect to the flag, we should know the history of the flag and what'It means. For more than a! century and a half our flag has lived, standing for peace, purity, valor, Jus tice and liberty. Respect Due The Flag The American flag Is the symbol of the nation and we all respect the nation so we should respect the flap. The flag should be raised at sunrise and lowered at sunset. It should not be displayed on stormy days or left out over night, except when our nation is participating in war. Although there Is no authoritative ruling which compels Mie people to lower the flag at sundown, good taste should impel them to follow the traditions of the Army and Navy in this ceremony. The flag Is raised pri marily to be seen and secondarily, it is something to be guarded and treas ured and should not be left to be men aced by the darkness. To leave the flag out, unattended, is a proof of careless ness and shiftlessness. At sunset all spectators should stand at attention. Girl Scouts may give their salute if in uniform. When the national colors are passing on parade. Scouts should halt if walking and should rise ar.d stand at attention if sitting. When the flag Is stationary It 1st not saluted. Who? A Scout! Who are the girls who are helpful and true? Those who always have something to do? Who are handy with pencil and needle too? The Girl Scouts. Who is the girl who is everyone's friend? Who at all times her assistance will lend? Who is ready to cook and ready to mend? The Girl Scout! What girl Is kind to "tBe weak and old? Who in the face of disaster is bold? Who has a heart that is made of gold? The Girl Scout! What girl always put3 herself last? Who does not believe that virtue is past? Whose knowledge of all things useful is vast? The Girl Scout! Who tries to live from day to day In such a kind and helpful way That only good can others say ? The Girl Scout! Scout. A Girl Scout (By a Former Scout.) A Girl Scout's life is the kind that takes With thoue who love the best, , A life that all the wrorg forsakes, A life that stands the test.. A Girl Scout Is a friend to all, A sister to every Girl Scout; A girl who is ready when duty calls, With neither a frown nor pout. A girl who is courteous to all she meets, One with a winning smile: Who is willing to take a lower seat, Or go the second mile. She sees the best in every one, Sht dwells not on the crude; And never behind your back makes fun, Her manners are never rude. A Girl Scout is loyal always, To her family, home, and school: All the Sccut laws she obeys, / Never forgetting the slightest rule. A Girl Scout knows the value Of money anu time well spent, She wisely spends her dollars And just the same her cents. She lives up to the slogan, “A good turn dally do,” And she has often proven, There’s joy In helping, too. A girl who is clean in thought, word, and deed, A girl who Is always about When friend or foe assistance need, This Is a true Girl Scout. For Better Girls I am in favor of Scouting, because it develops girls physically, mentally and morally. It gives them a wholesome out let to their energies and provides a pleasant, healthful form of recreation. Mrs. R. H. Ramsey, Free. Wednesday Club. Woodcraft Woodcraft is one of the main parts of Scouting and is observed by all Girl Scouts. The nine leading principles of Woodcraft to be kept in mind are: Re creation, outdoor life, self-rule, camp fire, woodcraft traditions, honors by standards, personal decoration for per sonal achievement, a heroic ideal, and picturesqueness in all things. Woodcraft in a large sense means every accomplishment of an all-round woodman—riding, hunting, camper craft, scouting, mountaineering. Jndlan craft, first aid, star-craft, signaling and boating. To this list is. also added all good outdoor activities, sports and na ture study. The Girl Scouts of Brevard are trying to do more work in Woodcraft this year and learn the lor^ of the forests. Prac tically all of the activities listed above are carried on. in meetings, hikes, or while in camp, by the Girl Scouts. —Jeanette Austin.

Moore Counsel Ask New Review of Case RALEIGH. — Counsel for Martin Moore. Buncombe county negro sen tenced to death by gaa for the murder of Helen Clevenger of Staten Island. N. Y„ in an Asheville hotel room last July, asked the supreme court of North Carolina Tuesday to grant a new re view of the case on appeal Federal Court Order Stops Payment of Transylvania Taxes With Bonds Writ of mandamus signed in federal court Monday by Judge E. Yates Webb, ordered the Transylvania county com missioners to levy sufficient taxes over a period of several years to take care of two judgments which had been se cured against the county by creditors, and further order was signed prohibit ing the tax collector from taking bonds in payment of debt service portion of taxes. The judgments, one secured by Elmer E. Toiman in the sum of $3,622.60, and the other by the Sovereign Camp Wood men of the World In the amount of $96,755.00 arc for outstanding bonds, past due. The mandamus writ directed the of ficials to tfevy sufficient taxes for the 1937-38 fiscal year, and for each suc ceeding year, to pay $300 annually to Toiman, and $10,000 annually to the W. O. W. Real blow to taxpayers was the fur ther order contained In the writ of man damus secured by the Woodmen, which prohibits the payment of debt service portion of current taxes, or past due taxes in bonds. Savings to the taxpayers or rrom so to 60 per cent have been affected in payment of faxes during the past sev eral years through the use of bonds, and this is ordered stopped by the man damus. While official order had not been served upon Tax Coilector Lem Brooks or any member of the board of county commisioners Wednesday at noon, a copy of the order was received through the mail Wednesday morning by Mr. Brooks, and he immediately stopped taking bonds in payment, or partial payment of any taxes. Commissioners W. L. Mull and G. If Lyday (Chairman Aiken was ill) met with a group of attorneys and citizens Wednesday morning, and decided that effort would be made at once to get the order, as signed by Judge Webb, amended as it applied to payment with bonds, and to make it apply after the 1SS7 levy was made, or at least not to take effect until after January first of next year. When The Times went to press Wed nesday at noon, the Question was still very much "up in the air.” From the "Order Granting Psremp tory Writ of Mandamus.” Isjsued by the Federal Court at behest of the W. O. W., it scwm that the taking of bonds in payment, and part payment of taxer;, Is the bone of contention. Negotiations have been going on for several months between the county find its bondholders in an attempt to re finance the outstanding Indebtedness, a large part of which is past due and unpaid, ar.d under the plan that ties been under consideration, the taking of bonds cn taxes would have stopped up on the refinancing program becoming effective. However, fths would have been at least two mouths, and possibly longer, in the future, and during that time it was expected that many of the county’s taxpayers would have taken advantage of the savings offered by the use of bonds. / Following Is copy of the order signed by the court in the matter: IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE WEST ERN DISTRICT OF NORTH CAR OLINA AT ASHEVILLE Sovereign Camp of the Woodmen of the World vs. County of Transylvania, Board of Com missioners of said County of Transyl vania, and the Individual members thereof, W.
