THEY ENJOY THE ADS!
J. C. Monteith, of Sapphire, was
among the several score people
who came in recently to subscribe
or renew the paper. Mr. Monteith
joined Mrs. J. A. Brewer, of Oak
land, who renewed just ahead of
him, in congratulating The Times
on the recent N. E. A. award. Mr.
Monteith commented on the excel
lence of the paper and remarked
that he and his wife enjoyed the
ads especially (he didn’t know at
the time that he was talking to
the advertising manager.) That is
very unusual; people read them
of course, but few ever bother to
comment on them. Mr. Monteith
said he was giving the paper to
his wife as a birthday gift, so we
say to Mrs. Monteith—congratula
tions and happy reading!
PREPARING FOR NAVY
CAREER
Ensign Eddie Varner, Jr., is
clearing the decks for his career
in the navy. After considerable
haggling, he bought a cap and
some G. I. shoes from Mr. Thom
ason. He resurrected from his
wardrobe a few days ago four
or five suits and passed them on
to his “relates.” And Nell has
promised the writer that she will
try to locate a pair of shoes for
him among Eddie’s personal pos
sessions. So, it looks like Eddie
is definitely committed. If for
any reason he should get thrown
out before he is able to salt
something away, as the saying
goes, he might have to drape
himself in a barrel.
BLITZ FOR THE
“MASTER RACE”
As these lines are being written,
the electrifying news of the Allied
invasion is only a few days old.
There must be consternation in
the haunts of the leaders of the
“master race” in Berlin. Eisen
hower waited until Hitler had com
mitted himself to a last attempt
to destroy the Red army and then
sent his forces swarming across
the Mediterranean. Hitler is at bay
for the first time in his life. His
-1
sulking subs have been licked. He
can’t retreat for he has no place
to retreat to. All he can do is to
fight back, futilely, while the Al
lies slaughter his men and blast
his country to ruin. For Hitler and
the German nation this is the end;
Germans there will always be, of
course, but the German nation will
perish in the avalanche of destruc
tion that will be poured upon the
reich. What. a ghastly heritage
Hitler has built up for a once
sane and respectable people! From
this out the word “German” will
be synonymous with greed, per
fidy and cruelty.
A GOOD NAME
A few days ago when a motor
cycle passed, some one asked
six - year - old Billie Anderson
what sort of a vehicle that was.
Without a moment’s hesitation,
she said, “Why that's a noisy
bicycle" ... In town here some
nights, there are a number of
unusually “noisy" motor vehic
les, especially automobiles. Un
necessary horn - blow ing should
be eliminated completely, par
ticularly after 11 o’clock at
nights.

INQUIRIES BEING
--- FROM PAGE ONE -
the entire staff at the college is
busy getting out large quantities
of literature that is being sent ail
over eastern America, as well as
the south.
“The average person’s educa
tional career has been upset by
the war and the consequent lower
ing of the draft age to 18 years,”
Dr. Coltrane stated.
“The officials of Brevard college
recognize this confusion and per
plexity on the part of parents and
students and have projected a plan
whereby bewildered young people
may prepare themselves for any
emergency that may arise.
“Brevard has a unified and in
tegrated program of acceleration,
both as to courses and time. This
program is effective in that it
combines the pre-college courses
and the college courses. The
courses on the pre-college level
are unit courses. They are full-year
courses carrying credit for a year’s
work, but they are arranged so
that they can be completed on a
semester basis. The college courses
are likewise semester courses. It
is possible, therefore, to arrange
a student’s schedule so that the
continuity of his pre-college and
college courses will be carefully
protected.
“Brevard college operates on a
continuous basis. There are two
semesters of 17 weeks each, the
first beginning in September and
the second in February. There is
also a summer term of fifteen
weeks. This makes possible the
completion of four years of work
in three years. It means a pro
gram of practical acceleration,
which the government is strongly
urging in all institutions.
“Thus it is easy to see that such
a program has real advantages.
Selective service does not permit
a young man of 18 much freedom
in his choice of an educational
career. A young person with 8
units of high school credit, 15 or
16 years of age, has the opportu
nity of completing high school and
junior college by the time he
reaches the 18th birthday. The
armed forces are looking for well
trained men and women and two
years of college gives untold ad
vantages in the officer personnel
of the army and navy.”
Ration Books Three

At Board Office
Ration books number three have

COLORED PREACHER PASSES
Rev. Mose Bailey, 40, well re
spected colored citizen of Brevard,
died at his home here on Monday
night, following ai illness of sev
eral weeks. Funeral service will
be held at the Bethel Baptist
church Thursday afternoon at 3
o’clock. Burial will be at the
Bailey cemetery.
Surviving are his widow and
one daughter.
Bailey had been pastor of the

FARMERS PLANT TREES
Under the Clarke-McNary and
Norris-Doxey Acts, more than 75
million tree seedlings and trans
plants were distributed at cost of
production to farmers in 42 States
last year, according to the U. S.
Forest Service. More than 32 mil
lion went to Southern farmers
alone.
There, Too
Woman: “My husband is so
careless of his appearance. It
seems that he just can’t keep but
tons on his clothes.”
Neighbor: “Are you sure it’s
carelessness? Perhaps they are
-uh-well, sewed on improperly.”
Woman: “Maybe you’re right.
He is so terribly careless with
his sewing.”

FARM QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
<|m •< ...——....—...—— ,.! ,
Question: Will the AAA furnish
Austrian winter pea seed?
Answer: H. A. Patten, executive
assistant of the AAA, says that
farmers can obtain crimson clover
and Austrian winter peas through
their AAA committee in lieu of
cash payments. In the case of
crimson clover, growers mav ob
tain any part of their 1943 allow
ance which they have not already
used, and in addition, may obtain
an amount equal to their 1943
allowance which will be charged
against their 1944 allowance. Ac
cording to Patten, “Legumes are a
valuable asset in meeting the food
and fibre needs since supplies of
chemical nitrogen for agricultural
uses are limited.'’ He points out
that, in order to maintain the
fertility of the land for maximum
wartime food production, it is
necessary to keep every tilled acre
covered in the winter.
Cpl. Paul Bowen sent a cable
gram to his sister, Miss Margaret
Bowen, here stating that he had
arrived safely in Australia. Prior
to his entrance in the army he was
employed at Ecusta.
The War Food Administration
has amended the food production
order which controls the use of
chemical fertilizers to enable farm
ers to make the best use of supplies
of mixed fertilizers now available.
Gas Coupons Must
Be Endorsed In Ink
Users of gasoline, beginning
July 22, will be liable to lose
their gasoline rations if each cou
pon in their possession is not
properly endorsed in ink, Charlie
Davis, chairman of the gasoline
committee of the county War
Price and Rationing Board, re
minded them today.
The new policy on coupon en
dorsements, the chairman said,
was taken to assure maximum pro
tection to book holders. Hence
forth, motorists will be required
to endorse all coupons immediate
ly upon receipt of renewal gaso
line rations, so that they will
never have unendorsed coupons
in their possession.
Endorsement consists of writ
ing—in ink—on the face of each
ration coupon, the license num
ber of the vehicle for which the
ration was issued and the state
in which the car is registered.
Schools Will Open
On Monday, Aug. 30
Brevard and Transylvania coun
ty schools will open on Monday,
August 30, Supt. J. B. Jones an
nounced today.
Starting this fall all schools in
the county will operate on a 9
months basis.
Four full months will be com
pleted by Christmas and a two-day
holiday will be given at Thanks
giving. Operation will be resumed
after the holidays on January 2
and the year will close around
May 25.
