As a result, each county in North Carolina, includ ing Transylvania County, received a cut in its PMA allotment. Be cause of this reduction by Congress on account of the war in Korea, and not on account of Mr. Wilson’s res ignation, the payments to the farm ers in Transylvania County were reduced to §26,974.90 (not $22,000 as stated by Mr. Wilson in his po litical ad). We shall appreciate it if you will kindly publish this letter so that the people may know the true facts about the PMA which has done and is doing so much to help the farmers of Transylvania county.

Daar Editor: In reply to your article of May 14th about the “Hugging Party” of 1902. well, I must confess that the party dates back some months be fore I was born. However, I feel free to defend the said church al leged to have sponsored such an affair for the purpose of raising money. There is a mistake somewhere and those young ladies and young men- of 1902 are now resting be neath the clay. They have already heard that “Well done, thou good and faithful,” and I feel that if Christians of 1952 haven’t got the guts to defend them against an ar ticle of this nature it just seems to BE hapi* BE SLENDER Ask about ANN DELAFIELD AT YOUR DRUG STORE * Qwm m W$jM\ NOW!

Cartledge, grand daughter of Mrs. M. B. Witmer, of Brevard, has been selected by the board of foreign scholarships for a government grant under the Ful bright Act to study religion at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland. Miss Cartledge, the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. G. H. Cartledge, has spent most of her summers in Bre vard, where she is well known. At the present time she is in structor in Bible and religious ed ucation at Belhaven college in Jack son, Miss. Miss Cartledge plans to leave in September and will remain in Lon don for a brief orientation period before taking up studies at Edin burgh. • She received her bachelor’s de gree from Oberlin college and her masters in religious education at the Biblical Seminary in New York City. The Fulbright Scholarships were set up to enable American students to study in Europe and at the same time aid the countries in which they study. Miss Cartledge is the second woman with local connec tions to receive one of these grants. Miss Joan Austin, of Brevard, is now studying in France on a Ful bright scholarship and will not re turn home until this fall. me that their bones will cry out from the grave. I didn’t say that some group of people didn’t stage a party of this nature, but not the church, back in the day of home spun jeans, brogan shoes and black bonnets. Well, it just doesn’t make sense. I’m afraid that some of the modern churches of this day do sponsor and indulge in activities that would knock the props from under sycamore center, but not in 1902. And if the paper of 1902 car ried such an article I would rec^ ommend a bon fire. And after all, the reproach is not brought on the old saints of 1902, but it’s against God, for in His word he says “it’s not you that they persecute but me.’’ And I am one of the least in the sight of man, but I must de fend my Lord.
