Han son of Whittier, which will doubt less be particularly interesting and helpful to Sunday School teacher.-: and preachers. Twenty-five volumes , of fiction have been given by Mrs. Lee S. Si Marsh and Senator Lee S. Over man has sent 9 volumes, comprising a collection on the Indian tribes of America, their sign language, modes of living and music. The liigb school and grammar school libraries will be nttwcd to tho library this week, so tliat the chil dren may have access to the books during the summer vacation. Miss Borden, the county supervisor of schools, is also moving three trav eling libraries to the Sylva library, this week. Mrs. Buchanan, the librarian, is urging the public to take advantage of the alWcurrent magazines and five daily papers, including the New York Times and the Onited States Dailvt in the library, by dropping in for at least a few minutes' reading ev ery day. Mre. Buchanan also expresses ap preciation for the work of Mr. San ford, who has done a considerable amount of painting, free of charge, for the library. CULLOWHEE ENROLLMENT 349 Cullowhee, April 17. ? The Cullo-j whee State Normal has pone beyond all expectations in its spring on roll- 1 rnent. At the beginning of the spring1 q uarter, the total enrollment of the; session had reached 290 normal stu- j dents. There are no high school stn-j cfrents included in this number. The' registration for the special six weeks of the spring quarter has just ended, adding 53 more nances to the list, bringing the grand total attendance for the session to 349! This repre sents an increase of 79 percent over the attendance of normal students in 1926-27. It is an increase of i>7 percent over the previous year, even if one includes the senior class of the high school, which was carried! by the Normal last year. To have eliminated* the high school, and at the same time increased the total attend ance by 127 in one year is cause for .jubilation among the faculty and students. A similar increase another year would bring the total attendance for 1928-29 to near 500, I HARRIS TO GO TO KANSAS CITY Col. Charles J. Harris, of Dillsboro, and W. C.

"By working to gether locally and within industries and nationally through the National Chamber," the statement adds, "American business men are helping the country to achieve and to main tain prosperity." "American prosperity," it Li pointed out, "is organic. Do injury to one , section of the country or one branch of economic endeavor and it is felt through the oigani^n. Let one great section of the country br one great branch of enterprise re ceive a helpful stimulus, and it is felt throughout the organism. "For example, the adverse effects of the Mississippi Flood ramified out through the country.
