HENDERSON VILLE FIRST .IN WAR; FIRST IN PEACE It should be a matter of local pride first, that Hendersonville was the first city in Western North Carolina to hold a patriotic meeting following the declaration of the war; second, that Hendersonville was the first city in Western North Carolina to antici pate, with a great celebration, the surrender of German arms, and to announce the emancipation of auto cratic slavery; thir3, that Henderson county was the first county in West ern North Carolina and in the State of North Carolina to go "Over the Top" in fulfilling her quota to the United War Work contribution. Pride and the expression of pride in these great achievements is highly meritorious. The men that are proud of great achievements are the only men that achieve, and the men that are not proud are the men that do not achieve. The men that achieve things are the brave, courageous, home loving, enterprising men of a community. They are men that do things. These are the men whose sons, brothers, and kinsmen were on the front and went Over the Top in the smoke of battle and in the mouths f of cannons and machine guns. They are he conquerors, but not more conquerors than the men whose , pa triotism reached into their pockets and furnished the money to, sustain the patriotic soldiers. .Hendersonville and Henderson county was in the forefront in pre paring and sustaining the war, Now that fighting on the battle ground has ceased, another great, work is be- 'j&re us. The Organization, enter prise, plijck and patriotism by our citizens is indicative oi . ail ,good things, including a love of home, which is ;the. greatest of all; patrio tism ' : ' . . It was the unexampled s organiza tion of Germany that made her the formidable foe that she was. It was the organization of. Hendersonville and Henderson county, that enabled us to achieve those things of which we boast." Preparation for war gain ed the victory. . ' ; , . Now our great duty is to prepare great men of the nation to avoid the dangers which peace involves. As an important unit within the nation we must organize and concentrate our forces so as to make Henderson ville a leader and an exaniple in the upbuilding of our part of the State I and Nation. Our situation, local advantages, re putation and good name as a 1 resort city is a great advantage and our op portunity is propitious. If we desire to succeed eminently, we can, if we will all come together as one solidi fied unit and pull together as one man in aid and promotion of each in dividual enterprise that promises good to the body, utilizing the best thought from our most sanguine and earnest expectations. There is pro bably not another city of its size within the state or within the south that has the opportunity that Hen-! dersonville has to grow. Plant the seed, cultivate the crop, and great will be the harvest. If wa believe these things, come together and act together, great ' results will be. inevitable. TURNED DOWN WILSON'S APPEAL North Carolina and the Tenth dis trict heeded the President's "call to arms," but the country as a who! rejected it, despite the appeal fo. unity in the prosecution of the war plans of the administration. The rmessage Mr. Wilson sent to the pec may have been resented in other of the country, as .the New York World and other newspaper suggested, but here in the Tenth Congressional district and through out the State of North Carolina the request of the President for the re turn of a Democratic congress , met with a hearty response from demo crats and numbers of independent voters. That, more than any other one thing, lined up the democrats for Congressman Weaver. This was es pecially noticeable after the Taft Roosevelt statement was made public. From that very moment the election of Mr. Weaver was assured, for it meant close party alignment on elec tion day and the democrats always win in the Tenth district when the lines are closely drawn. Four years ago they were not united and lost. Two years later they were partially united and Mr. Weaver pulled thru with less than a dozen votes to spare. This year the democracy of the Tenth has won by the old time majority and will hold the district until dissensions again creep into the ranks. The country has gone republican and this paper is not very greatly sur prised. The republicans win in the nation, as the. democrats do in this congressional district, when they stand together. The main reason tbey have won this time is because they were united, and there are more republicans than democrats in the United States at this time. In 1912, thanks to Col. Roosevelt and his pro gressive party, many senators and congressmen won on pluralities. The President himself failed to poll a majority of the votes cast, but re ceived a greater number than either Taft or Roosevelt and became the winner on a plurality. The Roose velt deflection gave not only the pre sidency, but a large majority in both the House and Senate to the demo crats n 1913. A similar condition prevailed two years later and another democratic congress was returned. In 1916, the Roosevelt influence wai noticeably on the wane and few pro gressive candidates for congress were in the field. The republicans lacked only one" vote of capturing the House at that time and democrats realized there was danger ahead. This year, with a re-united party, the Republi cans have succeeded in capturing both the House and Senate by close majorities and a battle rdyal for the presidency two years hence is in prospect. The result of last week's elections is considered a repudiation of the President in some quarters. There is cause for encouragement in the addition of New York and Ohio to the democratic column this year and the electoral votes of these two states in 1920, with those of the solid south, would practically assure the presidency to the democrats. Furthermore, the state of Massachu setts has given Senator Lodge a de mocratic colleague, the first demo crat .to be thus honored since that commonwealth was organized more than a century ago. Considering the opposition of Senators Lodge and Weeks to President Wilson ,the re sult in the Bay State is highly grati fying to the Democracy and especi ally to our great commander-in-chief. The defeat of Governor Whitman and the gain of a number of democratic congressmen in New York State is also heartening, as well as significant, and Colonel Roosevelt is privileged to rejoice over the losses in his own state ,along with the small republi can gains in other sections of the country, if he finds consolation in the fact. It is not so bad after all and if1 the Democracy continues to grow in popular favor during the next two years, at the same ratio it has increas ed numerically since Mr. Wilson be came president, the republican lease of power now in prospect will be short-lived. "While there's life, there's hope," and Democracy is yet very much alive in this country of ours. TO BILL HOHENZOLLERN Bill Hohefiztjllefn; years you planned. And armed and. trained your valiant band To dominate both sea and land From zone to zone; But when you saw your cruel huns Mowed down like grass by allied guns You ape the snob who quits and runs To parts unknown. You said, 'twas noble, sweet and brave To die the Fatherland to save, And fill an honorable grave, All glory lit; But when you heard the cannon roar And saw the allies at your door You turned and faced a' foreign shore And hit the grit! Ah, Bill, you kept out of the fray, Pretending you must read and pray; But when you saw h was to pay, You lost your nerve; You did not say: "Let come what;will, I'll stand beside my people still." So, swallow now the bitter pill That you deserve. G. W. BELK, Just One. . After all there is . but one race ho aamty, wrote" George Mocr& " FASSIFERN RECEIVES PEACE NEWS WITH JOY. (By Evelyn Byrd , Graham) News of peace was received -at Fassifern early Monday morning. As the glow in the east began to dawn there seemed to be written in the heavens: "Peace on arth good will toward men." The mountains ap peared bluer and all the world seem ed a mass of unspeakable joy. The sun never seemed so bright nor the sky so perfect in color. Such screams of delight and joy as never before went up in thanksgiving from the lips of our girls. It was refreshing to see such supreme delight at the thought of the home-coming of their fathers and brothers. Dr. E. E. Bo mar was invited to hold services at the school at 11 o'clock. Dr. Bomar, who always delights both faculty and students, made an eloquent address, which was impressive andj appropri ate. A delightful program was im mediately prepared and songs of a patriotic nature were sung with much feeling. Cheers to our peerless president, Hon. Woodrow Wilson, whose infalli ble judgment has made him so great during the war which has just ended, echoed throughout the auditorium. He, like George Washington, was guided by his conscience to live by the principles which he has set down for the people. At 6 p. m. the school attended the parade in Hendersonville. At 7:30 p. m. the girls had a big bon-fire out on the lawn in front of Fassifern and roasted marshmallows. Songs and cheers were heard until a late hour. - November 11th, 1918, will .go down in the history of the school as the greatest celebration ev er held under the portals of our dear old alma mater. The members of the domestic science class, with nimble . fingers, served dainty refreshments out on the lawn around the bonfire. Misses Carrie Burnett and. Dell Bernhardt were chief cheer leaders and deserve special mention for their untiring ef forts during the day and evening. At 4 p. m. the first match game between the two basketball teams, the "Reds" and "Blacks" was play ed. 'JBoth sides were evenly matched and the game proved an exciting one. The score was 14 to 12 in favor of the "Reds. Saturday Mrs. McBee and Miss Shipp gave a most delightful picnic at Columbia Park for both faculty and students. Rev. A. W. Farnum held services at the school Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. . Fassifern has received materials and is busily engaged in working foi the Red Cross. Prof. William Decoligney, instruc tor in French at Fassifern, on Tues day morning. at 11 o'clock, gave the first lecture of a series, which he "is giving on French literature. Prof. Decoligney is well informed on this subject and his lectures are looked f6rward to by the students and' are very educational. 'RAT KILLING WEEK." . Next week, November 18 to 23 in clusive, is designated as "Rat Killing Week." Much interest has been aroused in this campaign throughout the State. The . unqualified support of the Food Administration and the Federal' Department of Agriculture is given. The food and feed destroyed by; rats and mice in the State of North Carolina amounts to , many thous-' ands of dollars annually. It is not uncommon for one farmer to have $50 worth of food and feed destroy ed in a year by rats and mice. Both food and feed are too scarce and valuable to allow it to be destroyed in this way. . . . Kill rats and mice, cut off the whole tail and bring or send them to the county agent's office by by two o'clock Saturday afternoon, Novem ber 23. November 18 to 23 is "Rat Killing Week," but you do not have to wait until then to commence kill ing, but begin now. Besides the pri zes you win, you are doing a patri otic service. Through the kindness of the mer chants and business men we offer the following prizes to the boys and girls of the county: 1st prize (for the most tails) $3.50 2nd prize (next largest no.)..$3.50 express wagon 3rd prize $3.00 Fourth prize 00 Fifth, to the girl bringing in the largest number of tails a $2.00 rock ing chair.

A little Danderine to night now any time will surely save your hair.
