The Henderson County Demo cratic precinct committees met at the courthouse Saturday, April 15 at 12 o'clock. E.,Wr.wbak. county chairman, in opening ; -tneeting, explained its purpose and made a strong talk con cerning the democratic prospects in the coming election. He stated that the county is thoroughly tired of the methods 'that have caused so much trouble and made taxes so high. "We need competent, capable and traied busiess men," he said. "To win in the forthcoming election, we will have to look around us and pick out men who are far superior to any the opposing party may bring forth." Throughout his speech, he stressed the point of selecting "competent, capable and trained business men" to handle the affairs of the county. The roll was then called, and it was found that those of the precincts which had elected their committees had 11 chosen men. It was decided to hold these elections again, and to place half as many women on each committee.

Appointed - to Have Charge of Contributions. Hendersonville has a chance to se cure a Lutheran Church edifice. Pastor Mauney of our .city has made a. number of visits to the de cendants of the late David and Fan nie Mauney of Gaston and Cleve land counties in the interest of a church building here. The parents were noble citizens and devoted Christians. Their four children are now beyond the three score and ten year mark and their families richly blessed with health and the joys of home life. The sug gestion is that now as an expression of gratitude to God the descendants erect a memorial church here for the benefit of the Lutherans of this com munity as soon as the church lot is free from debt. The debt upon the church lot at present is around $4,600." Every member of the Lu theran church and public spirited citizen friendly to the cause of the church, who would like to see a sub stantial church edifice on the corner of Church Street and Seventh Ave nue, is given the opportunity to help the pause by a contribution to liqui date the debt on the lot. It is the hope of Pastor. Mauney and the con gregation that a way will be opened for a speedy lifting 6f the debt in order that work may begin upon the church building without much de lay. At a church meeting last Sunday 0. A. Meyer, L. E. Thompson and the Pastor were appointed a committee to receive contributions toward the debt.

This new building is quite unique not only in its rock construction, but in the fact that the massivve cliff ac tually forms a corresponding wall in the large room itself, in the centre of which is a great fire place made from the native granite, of sufficient size to accommodate logs five feet in length. John T. Arnctt, assistant manager of Chimney Rock states that during the past week a distmce increase in travel through the Gorge has been noticed. Many of these visitors coming to see the Broad River Gorge and the mountain sides covered with spring flowers. The Broad River Gorge and sides of Chimney Rock mountain are white with the flowering dog-wood ming ling with the gorgeous blossoms of other trees and shrubs, is the infor mation brought by parties who have recently been to Chimney Rock and Esmeralda.

O. Jones gives out the following information which will be of interest to them, re- garding federal farm loans: At a meeting of the officers of the Federal Land Bank, of Columbia, S. C, and the National Farm Loan as sociation at Salisbury on February 15th the officials explained a new system which they were ready to put into operation some time about May ' 1st. t f Each association will get an al lotment every three months, and can accept applications for the amount of the allotment, and will be able to inform the applicant when he can get the loan. The officials of the bank reported that up to May, 1921, they had closed loans in this district to the amount of $20,000,000. This district is com posed of North Carolina, South Car olina, Georgia and Florida, and since May, 1921, they had closed about $16,000,000, loaned almost in nine months as much as the four years previous. R. H. Welch, general coun sel and register, stated that they had now passed the hard times period and a bright future was just ahead. It was stated at the meeting in Salisbury that the affairs of the As sociations in Western North Caro lina were in better shape than any section in the district, and that the payments are paid more promptly. In order to receive a loan from the Federal Land Banks, the applicant must be a farmer or financially en gaged in farming. The farm must be of sufficient size or state of cul tivation to suport the family and. pay the interest on the loan. Far mers who rent their lands can secure ' loans if their share of the crops rown on the farm amounts to one naif of the total. Money can be borrowed for the following purposes: To pay existing debts and mort gages contracted for the purpose of improving the farm. To purchasj land for farm purposes. To pur chase stock for the necessary ope- farm. To purchase inery. To .provide buildings. To fanrwRr mA?-' generally, such as ditching, -fencing. To purchase fertilizer. These loans are made for 33 years, at six percent interest plus one per cent to pay principal, but may be paid at any time. Based on a loan of $1,000, the ex penses of obtaining a loan are $10 to cover expense of appraising farm; $7.50 to Federal Land Bank (to be deducted from loan); $1.50 for recording fees. A sum agreed upon between borrower and attor ney will be charged for making the abstract. The amount loaned on a farm is 50 percent of the value of the farm and 20 percent of the value of the buildings. All borrowers are required to join the association and take $5.00 stock on every $100. This stock is worth face value and pays over six per cent dividends. Based on a loan of $1,000, the, payments are $35.00 payable on the amortization plan every six months. At the end of 33 years, the borrower will have paid $2,310.00 and the loan and interest will be paid in full. If the borrower secures the money elsewhere, eight percent would be charged, (this is the lowest rate at which money can be had.) And should he keep the loan 33 years, the interest would amount to $2,640.00 and $1,000 will still be owing. A. O. Jones will accept applica tions from farmers, provided they are conducting their farms according to the farm loan act. Deeds should be brought when applying. STORY-TELLING HOUR The recreation committee of the Parent-Teachers' association have made plans for a .story-telling hour during the remainder of the school term, to be conducted on the graded school grounds on Mondays, Wednes days and Fridays from four to five o'clock. Miss Evah Blythe will have charge on Mondays, Misses Irene -Caldwell and Elsie Ficker on Wed nesdays and Mrs. Lila R. Barnwell on Fridays. Notice will be taken of the change of meeting place from the high school to the graded school grounds.
