Huh! ^ " ? i c. Every even year of the calendar we are more and more convinced of the profanity of John Grant's fam ous remark, and our respect for his judgment of things increases. I One of the most hopeful signs in North Carolina is the fact that the evolutionists and fundamentalists couldn't get enough of a crowd be fore which to stage their scheduled debate. Our friend John Irwin, son-in-law of T. II. Hastings, of Sylva, is less than a hundred votes behind the high man in the sheriff's in Meck lenburg county, and expects to bo '.lie nominee in the secoi.d primary. TALK LESS OR PROVE MORE Such is the heading of an editor ial appearing in the Asheville Citi zen of today. The Citizen's editorial is equally applicable to Buncombe, Jackson, and pcr'.aps other bounties j in \Vestern Nort'i Carolina, where' bot!i the Australian ballot- law And ^ the absentee voters jact are in efi'ict. Says the Citizen: ) "Fraud, frpu'd" ? it the custom ary excuse of the); defeated in all parts of the country, and in this county for a number of years it lias been invariably shouted after each election. Every trick of political chi canery hits been charged against the 1 supporters of t he winners. Saturday's primary was no excep tion, but rather the clamor pf other years was intensified and increased ' in volume as the results were an notihced. In this precinct ballot boxes were stuffed, in that one ballot:? were changed, in another votes for one candidate were counted for his op ponent; 'official "markers" disre regarded the wishes of ignorant or infirm voters and everywhere absent tec ballots were used as swindling devices. So runs tjie widely repeated charges. jThey are the same charges made after every primary for some years ? the same charges have always end ed in nothing but charges whichxiio body has undertaken to establish/ as true. This paper is sick of these bien nial complaints which no one seeks to prove. If they' are time there should bo. a formal investigation in order that an end be made1 to grave offonses; if there is no evidence to support them they should not be re peated ? such talk hurts the com munity's reputation. Complainants allowed the Canvassing Board to ad journ without calling for any inves ti'if.tion, but there is still opportunity to present evidence to Solicitor Swain. In plain language, com plainants should either put up or shut up." WE HAVE WITH US TOMORROW 1 35 South Carolinans, coming from our neighbor county of Oconee, and from our neighbor town of Walhalla, will be with us tomorrow. They come to get acquainted. We have been here all the time. They have been there all the time; and yet we know not each other. Perhaps every man and woman in Sylva knows a large circle of friends in Franklin, Brevard, Wayncsvillc and Bryson City, and yet we doubt if there are more than three people :.n Sylva who know as many as three people in Walhalla. Each of these towns is the seat of government of adjoining counties to Jackosn. An older generation of Jackson county people were as well acquainted with Walhalla and Oconee county as they were with their own county and county town. Why do wc not know our neig hbors? The reason is obvious. The best road out of Jackson county once went to Walhalla. It has fallen into disuse and a state of unrepair. The only way to bring us close to our neighbors in friendship and mutual interest is I to open a highway of travel, connecting the two towns. We have many things in common. We can both gain much by working together for Jackson and Oconee counties. The Wade Hampton Memorial 1 Highway is being opened. The South Carolinians are ;naking the journey here over it. It furnishes the short est route to Sylva, to Western North Qarolina, to the Great Smoky Moun tains National Park, for the people of Walhalla and a large section of the lowland South. It will be worth thousands to Sylva and Jackson county. It should be a part of the state highwya system as ? was plan ned iu( the beginning. We welcome ou,r South Carolina friends. We hope to know them bet ter. We pledge them our support in completing the road to Walhalla. ? o Union County reports the finest hay crop ever produced in that coun ty.

Al though nearly one tenth of the 350 students enrolled at Cullowhee State Normal for the first session of the sununer school are from other states the enrollment figures show that the school is pre-eminently"' a training ! school for Western North Carolina j teachers. The eight North Carolina ! counties leading in number of stud J ents enrolled are: Jackson, with 40; , Buncombe with 37 ; ; Macon, with 32 ; | Haywood with 24; Swain with 24; ! Clay with 15; Madison with 14; and j Cherokee with 13, , - With the exception of Boone Training S"chool, Cullowhee is the only state yormal this side of Greens boro and this probably accounts in part for the unusually large en rollment regardless of the fact that Western ' North Carolina lias five summer schools for teachers. Although the Cullowhee officials have tried to provide all dormitory space possible for the summerschool ' students, dormitories are overflowing ; and already plans are being made to provide more room for a still (V larger enrollment for next summer. The rapid growth of the institu tion is shown by the enrollment fig: 'l ures for the past three years. There J were 150 students in the 1923 sum ; mer school, 221 in 1924, 312 in 1925 and the enrollment for the present summer school will likely reach close to the 400 mark. The success of the school is no i doubt due1 in part to the famous '.sum J J mer climate and mountain scenery of j Western North Carolina. Nearly every county in the eastern part of [ the state is represented. The teach j ers of Cullowhee state that the students seem to bo capable of doing good work as students usually do in the regular winter terms, a condi I tion which is not found in summer { schools less fortunately located. !

Allen , director of the school, tells her experience with the Perfection Oil Stove. MISS Lucy Allen, director of the conservative Boston School of Cookery, is one of six famous cooks wh? recently put the Perfection Stove to a rigorous, practical cooking test LiVe the other five famous cooks, Miss Allen cooked by every cooking process, and gave us her opinion of the Perfection. Uniformly Good Results "I cooked many meals on the Perfec tion Stove," says Miss Allen. "The results, whether using the top of the stove, the oven, the broiler, or the toaster were uniformly good. There were several features sufficiently pro nounced to recommend the stove to the most particular people. Easy to Work on "Tbe Perfection is an easjr stove to work on. There is no reaching across scv?**d hoi plates, as there is with a tfjaz ut cual range. < "TVs flkoie never varied from the pofoi t which it was set, whether it was tow for stewing down pumpkin or high for baking beans several hours. Clean Kettles There was no black deposit on the utensils, even when the high tipped flume was used foi I or "The long chimneys burn every drop of oil completely before the heat reaches the utensils. "We were so well pleased with the 1926 Perfection Stove, both as to results and operation, that after completing the test we kept it to use for auxiliary work in our classes," she concluded. ' t * Tested and approved by the Boston School of Cookery! That means that the Perfection was used under all pos sible cooking conditions? for slow cooking, for fast cooking; for baking, for frying, and for broiling. In every case it was found efficient Six Cooks Agree The other five famous cooks who tested the Perfection were enthusi astic, too, about the results obtained. And, every day 4,500,000 women get real cooking satisfaction from their Perfections. N \ See these 1S>26 Perfections at any deal er's.
