and a single warehouse at Falrview in
Buncombe county. At present, he said

tion, which is now operating 15 ware
houses, and opening additional ones at
Murphy and Brevard.

audience, with the notation being made

upon farmers in interest of establish
ment of a co-op warehouse here.

zation, nnd operation of the Farmers
Federation Warehouse will be found in

\ Seen and Heard Around Court f
t^Mkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkklr^kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk-kk-k*
"Criminal" Is a hard word to use
about a docket, yet it tells the story
better than any other word that could
be used. Webster gives the definition
—Involving, or of the nature of, a
crime: relating to crime or its punish
ment; guilty of crime.
Some of the fellows up Monday were
not criminals—they were fellows who
had just made a slip, and got caught
at it. This was not true In every case,
but It must have been in some. Look
ing close into the faces of some of the
defendants—"criminals" they were list
ed according to the docket word—there
was total absence of the look of crime.
For a small county the size of Tran
sylvania. there were entirely too many
cases listed on the “criminal" docket.
Seems that we ought not bo that bad
as a county.
Close scrutiny of the docket showed
one glaring fact—liquor was base
reason for majority of the “criminal
cases at the December term.
Some of the chaps didn't have the
money to pay a small fine and costa
which the judge Imposed—trying to be
as fair as he could, taking everything
into consideration—and It was some
thing to make one feel bad. Here Is a
chap who spends most or maybe all of
the money he has In his pocket for
whiskey, gets "all lit up” and does some
thing which he would not have done
had he been In his right mind, and then
has nothing to pay his fine with.
Believe It ought to be a part of the
required school work that first and
second year high school students be tak
en to criminal court for the first couple
of days . . . things that they would
have Impressed on their minds there
might be means of causing them to
stop and consider the cost before they
get into trouble later on In life.
Lot of fellows wanted off the juiy,
nearly a third of them . . . seemed that
they all had good, legitimate excuses,
but it must be rather trying on the
judge to have this one and that one
pleading to be left alone for this term.
Used to be back when 1 was a young
ster that folk would go a long way to
get on the jury . . . have heard a sheriff
promise fellows before election that he
would get them on the jury several
times during his four years (they had
four-year term when I was a kid) in
return for support. Man, we lookod the
paper over closely before court to see
who was going to be honored enough
to be drawn for Jury service.
—
Like the way Judge Alley goes about
getting things done in court. He doesn’t
seem to rush but gets the work turned
out.

Class Play Event of
Friday Evening Here
Final rehearsals are In progress for
the four-act comedy, "Pollyanna.’’ to
be given by members of the junior
class of the Brevard high school on
Friday evening of this week at the high
school auditorium at 8 o’clock.
The cast Is said to be exceptionally
well chosen, and Indications are that
It will be a production well worth see
ing. The play Is directed by Miss Eliza
beth Jarvis, of the high school faculty.
The east Includes: Tom Galloway.
Beatsle Moore. Lillian Zachary, Paul
Jones, Elizabeth Allison, Jeanette Aus
tin, Edna Fulton, Mildred Maxwell. Ed
ward Glazener, John Walker. Rachel
Hamlin. Craig Sharp and Pendleton
Banka.
The proceeds of the play will be usejj
toward defraying expenses for the Jun
ior-senior banquet to be given In the
early spring. _
Pretty cold In the court room Monday
morning. Buck McCall said that he
was having the boiler pushed to its
capacity, but the judge complained of
cold, and several people kept their
overcoats on. Looks like the county
will have to buy a new boiler for cold
days like Monday, or have no court
Seems like the court room would be
a lot warmer if SO awful many people
didn’t come in and out, in and out, in
and out, keeping the doors slamming,
and the cold air coming in.
Talked to a chap who Is up in court
on a liquor charge late Monday after
noon, and what do you reckon, he had
been drinking during the afternoon.
That’s what Is called nerve, or brass,
or plain gall, or maybe like the old blind
mule—just don't give a whoop.
Heard where the term ’‘bootlegger1
came from Monday. Seems that back
in the days when most everybody wore
boots instead of the low-cut shoes, that
a chap would stick a couple of bottles
down each boot log and go out peddling.
So, they were called "bootleggers."
Sounds alright, at least.
His Honor likes to take care of the
attorneys . . . said so from the bench
Monday morning. Pat Murphy, big
shot from down at Salisbury, had to be
in Washington Wednesday, and had a
case In court here . . . asked to be ex
cused, and the judge had his case con
tinued . . . seems the only courteous
thing to do.
Mr. Murphy is one of those fellows
who dignifies the profession of law.
Wears the coat, and the tie. and has
the look of a picture-book lawyer.
Heard 'him make a political speech
thirty years ago . . , one of the first
"big shots" I ever heard speak In a
campaign that I remember of . . . and
did he rant and rave . . don’t remem
ber what it was all about, but do remem
ber that he stamped and pounded about
until I was nearly frightened out of my
wits, and sat Just as close to Paw as
I possibly could.
Wonder why a lawyer wants to lam
bast a witness qp much when ho has
a fellow on the stand, who Is natural
ly scared anyway before he goes up In
front of ail that crowd. Tf It were I,
I believe I'd try waiting until the law
yer cooled down and got on a different
basis before I’d tell him yes, or no, or
uh-huli.
Saw two fellows checking out of
Brevard eariy Monday morning. They
each had cases tu court Monday, but
were given the "oyez, oyez, oyez" by
the sheriff when their cases were call
ed. Believe I’d Just as lief risk my
chances before Judge Alley, but one
never knows hew he'd feel until he Is
caught and being tried.

Series of Lectures Start
at Hospital In Brevard
"Making the lame leap with Joy”
could well be the label attached to the
work of the Shriner’s Hospital at
Greenville, S. Cl, by those who attend
ed an Illustrated lecture at Lyday Me
morial hospital Tuesday evening.
Dr, J. Warren White, orthopedic sur
geon of the Shriner’s hospital, explained
to the Interested group of Invited
guests the various phases of the work
which Is carried on In Greenville
through generosity of the Shriners and
the Duke Endowment, where several
hundred charity patients are treated
each year, limbs straightened, and what
would seem to be hopelessly crippled
Infants and tots made whole.
The Illustrated lecture was the first
of a series which the local Duke endow
ed institution plans to hold monthly
during the winter and to which a differ
ent group of citizens of the county will be
invited each time. At other group
meetings, various phases of hospital,
surgical, and medical treatment will be
discussed by outstanding surgeons and
specialists.
Dr. White explained that there was
an ever-waiting list of children for
treatment, despite the fact that an ave
rage of one per day was released from
the hospital, and that clinics were held
at the Greenville city hospital, and at
other points In the state.
He said that the work Dr. Saunders
was doing at Biltmore and Bryson City
in this state was similar to the work
that was done In the Greenville clinics,
anil said that Dr. Saunders, who is giv
ing two to four days per month to the
work In this section Is doing an excep
tionally fine work, and is especially
capable In bis line.
A number of children with deformi
ties have been treated at the Biltmore
clinic, through the department of pub
lic welfare, with local citizens cooperat
ing In taking the children to and from
the clinics.
While the subject-pictures shown at
Lyday hospital Tuesday evening were
pitiful to the near-revolting point as
the youngsters were photographed up
on entering the Institution, yet the mag
nitude of the work, and the fine shape
the healthy happy ones were in as they
were pictured leaving after treatment,
afforded a most enjoyable and enlight
ening evening.

MUCH WORRY HERE
Tourists Who Hunt Feel That
Brevard People Respons
ible For Charges
Local citizens plan to contact stats
and federal officials with s view to hav
ing method of licensing hunters chang
ed before the next deer hunt Is staged
In Plsgah National Forest
It Is believed that this section has
been materially harmed due to the mis
interpretation by the public of rules
Invoked by the State Department of
Conservation and Development which
required out of stale hunters to pay
the *15.25 state hunting license fee be
fore going into Plsgah Forest to hunt
Several local citizens have reported
that they have been approached by
friends from other states, particularly
South Carolina and Oeorgta, and that
the statement has been openly mad*
by these friends that sportsmen from
the two states! and very probably other
states, also) feel that Transylvania
county people were responsible for tho
high charges which non-state residents
had to pay before being allowed to hunt
In the National forest.
Tlio state department required that
each floulh Carolina hunter (same rule
applied to hunters from other state*
in the union) buy a North Carolina
hunting llcnjise at $16.25 before they he
allowed to toko h deer out of Plsgah
Nutlomtl Forest.
At Ihe same time, a resident of North
Carolina was allowed to hunt by simp
ly paying $2.10 for a license which may
also lie used for the rest of the bunt
in,? season !n the state.
Mhtakcn idea of the Irate sportsmen
wlio have been contacted by people of
TrumrylvantB Is that people of this im
mediate section were responsible for
the high charges, and a none too warm
feeling is held by these out of staters
for this section over the matter.
Check-up here during the hunt has
also revealed the fact that the number
of hunters whc came for the 1DS7 hunt
was far below the usual count, aa ap
plied to those who paid for board and
lodging. This was due. it is believed
by interested citizens here, in largo
part, to the feeling that cut of stute
peoplo were being "held up" for an ex
cessive charge.
Unless the ruling Is changed before
the next hunt. It Is believed that this
section will be materially damaged from
a tourist standpoint
Tho state department, It seems, re
tained certain rights as to gam* and
fish regulations when the federal gov
ernment took over the Plsgah Nation
al Forest, and that the conservation
board considered the annual deer hunt
a good chance to increase Its revenue.
None of the fees from the $15.26 license
was paid to the federal government
Christmas Lighting
Adds To Xmas Spirit
Santa Claus spirit was more pro
nounced last Friday evening when the
Christmas lights were turned on In
the uptown section.
The wiring was done by the Duke
Power crew, and cost of the lighting
will be paid by business men uptown.
Several windows have been "dolled up"
to reflect the Christmas effect, and
buying has taken a decided Christman
turn from heavy stocks of merchan
dise, It Is reported.
