WED BY WOMEN HM Jj LARGE NUMBER HEAR SPINDALE BAND CONCERT Fine Program Given in Open Air Concert On Plaza Here Friday Several hundred people gathered on the square Friday evening at 8 o'clock to hear the open air concert given by the Spindale Band. Mr. D. C. Cole, tKe director of the Band, had arranged an excellent pro gram consisting of a dozen or more numbers, which pleased all of those gathered to hear the concert. Dr. A. C. Duncan gave a short wel come address to the Band at the close of the program, in which he expressed the deep appreciation of the people of Forest City to the Spin dale Band for the concert. Following the concert the members of the band were served drinks at the Peoples' Drug Store. DOING GREAT WORK AT SOUTH MT. INSTITUTE Miss Beatrice Cobb, after a visit to South Mountain Institute, writes as follows in the Morganton News- Herald: I had planned to have in this weeks' paper an illustrated article about the South Mountain Institute, Hiss Hull's struggling little mountain school just across the Burke line in Ruthei'ford county, but, to tell the truth about the matter, all week I have labored under such depression, when the thought of the place came into my I mind, that I haven't been able yet to bring myself to the point where I could begin to tell the story. For fear I shall be misunderstood, let me hasten to say that this state of mind is in no sense a reflection on the school or a discount of the wonderful work that is being done there by a consecrated woman and her associates. However, I am speaking only the truth when I say that a visit to the school fur nishes both inspiration and heart break. It is inspiring to see cul tured, educated women willing to give up everything else in life, even the commonest comforts, and devote themselves to "the glad ser vice" of little children; it is heart breaking that their labor is so han dicapped by a lack of buildings and equipment, to say nothing of main tenance. In comparison with what this group of women have 1 under taken to do, in spite of. all the dis couragements which offer them selves and in the face of seeming ly unsurmountable obstacles, a | mission assignment in a foreign field might appear an easy task. In fact it is mission work in the highest sense and a contemplation of the undertak ing and its possibilities makes one wonder why we do not in our mis sionary efforts begin "first at Je rusalem"sweep first around our own doorsteps before venturing into other fields. Here in the mountains of Burke, McDowell, Cleveland and Rutherford counties—the South Mountain sec tion — is a wonderful missionary op portunity. Miss Hull with few re sources —with little more than a vis ion of the possibilities and an un bounded faith in God and the re sults of prayer —undertook an ap parently impossible task and is dem onstrating that the impossible can be done. She is showing that prayer can accomplish many more things than "this world dreams of." The South Mountain Institute is more than a school; it is a combi nation of home, orphanage and school. Mr. H. L. Millner, to whom I am obligated for the trip there last Thursday, said that when a child could not be placed in any other school Miss Hull seemed al \mys able to manage somehow to make room for one more, and very rarely has one turned away. The average number cared for is fifty. D S. WILKINS HAS FIRST BOLL OF OPEN COTTON The first open boll of cotton re ported this year in the county was that of D. S. Wilkins, who lives in the southern part of Forest City. Mr. Wilkins exhibited his boll of cotton at The Courier office Friday noon. The boll was picked Thursday, Aug ust 30, in a field of eight acres near the house. He states that there were several other open bolls of cotton in the same field. # .

THE FOREST CITY COURIER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER S, 1928* SAYS LAKE LURE DAM SAFE WITH RECONSTRUCTION Reconstruction of the high dam at Lake Lure, a dirt wing of which was damaged by the recent flood, is well underway and the structure now is regarded as being absolute ly safe, it was stated by C. A. Mees, of Charlotte, engineer, who directed operations at the dam, near Chimney Rock, during the hours of danger and uncertainty soon after the middle of August. Rebuilding the dirt wall is only a "matter of routine construction," said Mr. Mees. Owners of the dam de cided to build a masonry wall to re place a foundation of rock which partly crumbled under the pres sure of the flood waters and then to rebuild the dirt wall which con nects the side of the mountain and the end of the concrete part of the dam. Since the dam withstood the pressure of the August flood, Mr. Mees said the question of its stabil ity probably will not be raised again, for when the dirt wall is rebuilt it will be stronger than it was original ly. ABRUZZI RYE MAKES BEST WINTER COVER Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 3.—Abruzzi rye is the best of the small grains to use as a winter cover crop and when hairy vetch is sown with it, the comb ination makes an excellent soil im proving crop to plow under the fol lowing spring. "A good winter'cover crop must make sufficient growth in the fall, and winter to prevent erosion and I Lots of people make a specialty leaching and must also make an ear- j pouring ice water on enthusiasm, ly growth in spring to be ready for i plawing under in time for the land I Never judge a man's greatness by to be prepared for qotton, corn or the opinion his neighbor has of him.

It is the best small grain to j use for th'e purpose. It will make' more growth during the fall than will wheat, oats or barley; it is more cold resistant; will furnish winter grazing and will make much larger growth in ■ spring for turning under by March i 15 6r April first than any other small j grain." Mr. Kime says that Rosen rye should never be used in this State as cover crop, even when it might be seeded early. Common rye makes good growth but does not do so well as the Abruzzi. Hairy vetch is recommended for planting with the Abruzzi rye. Mr. Kime recommends one and one-half bushels of the rye to 15 pounds of vetch seed. Seeding should be done in September or early October as this will permit the crop to make suffici ent fall growth. Abruzzi rye will not freeze out very badly when seeded as late as the early part of Decem ber but in that case little spring growth will be made. It is best, he states, to plant the crop early so that the winter grazing may be secured and the crop be ready to turn under in spring. In any case, the Abruzzi variety will be found cheaper than Rosen rye if the seed costs three times as much per bushel. / Farmers in Burke County have be come interested in the Guernsey breed of dairy cattle and have com missioned their county agent to buy some cows for them.
