A COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS TREE V There is a < Well-dilinei! movement on foot to lu)ld a community Christmas tree, in Sylva, this year, and the Journal hopes ami believes tliat^jis ^hc movement grows and takes shape, that it will grow in popularity among the entire citizenship of the town, and tnd in all the people ijetting together in the Christian spirit to celebrate the birth of the Savior, around one common tree; where will he provided gilts for every child in the entire com munity. It will do us all good. The ladies who are now at work on the plans are engaged in a labor of love, which should strike a responsive cord in every heart. The community sp'iu and the Christmas spirit arc slosely akin, if iii.!t : not the same. <Let's get together in the true spirit o! C'hiistmas( and make the old town N awaken once ai.r/.n .0 the love we should bear all our (neighbors, especially at this happv season. ?V? * "AN EXCELLENT CITIZEN" ; v ( n a 1 \ ? * Editor Dan Tompkins, of the Jackson County Journal grows Sarcastic in commenting upon the fact that a number of people from I lay wo jd county attended court in Sylva owe day last week undent the trial of Messrs*.

While you are taking a hunting trip, attending a dance, seeing a football game, eating a dinner of turkey and ac cessories, or in whatever way your fanoy may direct, arc showing the thankfulness of your -heart for the blessings you, your family, your state, and your oountry have re ceived, remember the orphanages of the state. North Carolina and her people are justly proud of the orphanages that are so splendidly caring for the orphan ed North Carolinians. The people have been generous in their support of these splendid institutions, and they have been laigely supported by the Thanksgiving offer ings made by our people, who in the thankfulness of their hearts for the great blessings, material and other wise, with which the people of the state hpve been so lavishly showered by Providence, they naturally turn to that helpless class of our people, and give one day's work out of the year to their care and training. The proceeds of one day's labor is indeed a small amount that we are asked to contribute to this most worthy cause. Let us not foiget the orphans of North Carolina. Let us make our Thanksgiving offering one that will be a credit to us and our state, and that will enable the institutions to prosper and progress in the splendid, humanitarian work they are doing. Before you start to the football game, the slaughter of wild life, the dance, or that groaning board, fill out your check and send it to your church, your lodge, your favor ite orphanage, or the ^Children 's Home Society of North Carolina, at Greensboro.. The people who feel inclined toward the house of the Lord and a Thanksgiving ser vice will be given an opportunity to contribute there. "HOOT MON!" o r ?" ** , ' . < ? *' ' If it is true that' 'the best Englishman is a Scotsman," it may not be denied that from the blood-brothers of Bruce and Wallace, of Burns and Scott, America has derived inspiration that achieves and endures. For thix icason it is good tc learn that descendants of Scotsman who settled in Piedmont and other sections of North Carolina have been having a little celebration in their transplanted Mac-land. It was their North Carolina Scotsmen who saved the day in the dark hour of the Revolution when they whip pod Colonel Ferguson at King's Mountain and gave General Cornwallis more than a bad quarter hour at Guilford Court House. It was kinsmen of theirs who, bofore the farmer's shot was fired at Concord, fired the snot At Moore's Creek, and framed, at what is now Charlotte, the Mecklenburg Declaration of Indepcudence. before Jefferson had penned the one signed at Phila delphia July 4, 1776. In the War of 1812 it was one of these North Caro lina Scotsmen who commanded the American troops at New Orleans, and it was this same Scotsman Andrew Jackson, who kept the nation whole with his toast: "The Union: It shall be Preserved!" When the War Between the States came on it was yet another Jackson who wed ded to a North Carolina Morrison, made known to the world what Scottish valor, Scottish character, Scottish humility and Scottish genius are as he rode to the crest of the battle at Chancellorsville and fell in the arms of victory there. If North Carolina has become one of the most pros perous, as it has always been one of the most virtuous of American commonwealths, the credit for the achieve ment is due in no small measure to Scotsmen there who, within the last fifty years, have made bricks without straw and spread splendor through their once war wasted homes. Kentucky where the Scotsmen is as little unknown as he is in North Carolina, felicitates the Old North State upon the very interesting occasion that brought together these blood-brothers of Wallace and Bruce. ? Louisville Courier Journal. * DEVELOPING OUR ASSETS Asheville Citizen, Nov. 27 Cashiers Valley, long known to those who seek out Nature's places of great beauty in regions affording good fishing and hunting, is to become the recreation ground of thousands instead of hundreds. E. L. McKee of Sylva has purchased the General Wade Hampton home on this plateau surrounded by peaks of the Blue Ridge. Victor East is drawing the plans for an eigh teen-hole golf course on the property, the tract of 2,300 acres affords anglers andhunters with the sports they go far to find and therefore it is assured that High Hamp ton will be one of the most famous summer resorts in the Southern Appalachians. These development plans in Cashiers Valley illufcrate once more a truth which Western North Carolina, Inc., is endeavoring to impress upon the people of Western North Carolina: no country has a monopoly of natural advantages for either recreation or industry. All the 25 counties in this organization have possessions which should not only be developed, but thoroughly advertised to the world. Each of these eounties can increase the volume of its industrial and agricultural production and at the same time entertain crowds of visitors in numbers increasing every year. Twenty-five years ago Jackson County or Macon would have been amused but not interested over a proposal to lay out golf links anywhere within their borders: it is little more than a quarter century since Asheville de cided that it must have a golf course. Today the good roads movement is making possible for all the mountain bounties what a little while ago was impracticable for most of them. Maeon Codnty now has , its golf course at Franklin; Jackson will soon have a course at High Hampton; other counties have links or definite plans for them. There are almost boundless opportunities in all these counties for new business and new forms of wholesome pleasure. Wideawake citizens are recognizing the value of their natural assets and are determined to make use of them. Western North Carolina, Inc., should become a tremendous factor in discovering new opportunities for the people of this section and in giving proper assis I tance for their development. * WE BUILD SHOW CASES For Cigars, Jewelry, Fruit, Candy, General Display of Counters.
