FROM FRANCE Denim originated in Nimes, France, with a weave tough enough for workers in the field, and colorfast enough for sail ors and fishermen at sea. The weavers dyed the warp direction, but, to save costs, left the fill di rection undyed. This ac counts for the white fleck ed and blue look charac teristic of this cloth. The name “denim” is a short ening of the French words, de Nimes, meaning “of Public Hearing On Proposed New Jail To Be Held At Courthouse Next Monday A public bearing is scheduled next Monday night. September 16th. in the courtroom of Tran sylvania County Courthouse here The hearing will begin at 7:30 p m. and its purpose is to receive public comment on the proposed bond issue to build a new jail. Plans for a new jail began back in !%»;. It wasat this time that the Transylvania County Com missioners were notified that the jail failed to meet many health and safety standards. The incumbent commissioners hired the architectural firm of Williams & Associates and over a period of years, several different plans were drawn. New jails seldom generate much public enthusiasm and consequently plans were allowed to gather dust as the State failed to issue any final condemnation of the present facility. The public’s attention was caught by other building needs in the County. Transylvania Community Hospital launched a successful fund raising program enabling a new hospital facility to be con structed. Soon afterward the need for new school buildings could no longer be overlooked. Many citizens worked long and hard to convince the public of .this pressing need. After an initial failure, the public in September 1972. approved a bond issue to build new schools which are now under construction. Eight years after the initial planning, the current jail is even further away from meeting standards and the State has warned the Commissioners, on numerous occasions that the facility will have to be replaced. In recent months, the State has forbidden the Sheriff and the Commissioners from confining women or people under 18 years of age in the jail. These two groups are presently being transported to the Henderson County Jail when necessary. The Board of Commissioners appointed a special study com mission to tell them what alternatives they had concerning the jail, especially asking if it would be cheaper and easier to simply renovate the existing building. After much questioning of the jail inspector and consulting architects, the Commissioners were told that the cost of renovation would be very close to the cost of a new facility, in dicating that it would be pointless to spend so much money and still not have a really modem facility. Another alternative discussed was the addition of a new floor to the present building. But, this also was rejected because of its costand the increased congestion that would be caused in the already crowded Courthouse. The Jail Commission and the Board of Commissioners recently came to ihe inevitable conclusion that the only course was to build a new facility diagonally across the street from the present jail A model of this proposed building is on display in the Clerk of Court’s office. Any persons questioning the need for a new jail are en couraged to get in touch with the County Commission office and if they so desire an inspection of the jail will be arranged.
