SYLVA DEFEATS HAZELWOOD; MEET AGAIN WEDNESDAY Sylra, leaders of the^Smoky Moun tains Leslie, handed Hazel wood, traders of the Industrial League, a 9-S troum-ing at Lake Junaluska, Monday afternoon. The Sylva team held the lead from the early innings throughout the game. Fineannon, hurling for Sylva, dem onstrated that he could fling a base hall as well as he could handle a basketball, Tiy keeping his opponents' hits well scattered. Time and again, with a man on third and no one out, he retired the side. Queen featured at bat for Sylva, with four hits out of six times at hat. He has gone to bat eleven times in the last two games and hit for eight safeties. He has developed a hitting punch this season that has h en of great help to the club.

(By Frank Parker Stockbridge) Bible . . . apd It's verejons The discovery m a school .on Staten Island of a copy of the rare "Breech es Bible,'' printed at, Geneva in the year 1560, has revived interest in the various versions of the English Bible. This particnler version gets its name because it says that Adam ana Eve made themselves "breeches" of fig leaves, instead of "aprons," as the King James Version translates it. No perfect copy of the Bib^e has ever been printed, according to >one of the officials of the American Bible Society. Misspelled words and other errors appear in every direc tion. The Authorized Version . of the Bible as it was first published in 1611 would be hard reading today. Mod ern Bibles follow modeitn spelling, but in the time of King James the Bible appeared with such spellings as "Forgiue vs our dettes as we forgiue oure detters." .) The simplification and moderniz ing of the Bible goes on steadily and i at least two complete new transla tions have recently come out, but the stately phrases of the Authorized Version have become so much a part of the common speech of English speaking people that it is unlikely the new phraseology "will ever be so widely accepted. Colleges . . . and women The demand for college-trained women in business is one of the in teresting developments of modern times. Talking recently with the head of one of the largest department stores in America, he said that the only way he had found to obtain sales people and clerks of the high degree of intelligence and character his store required was to employ only college women, when they could bo got. v Colleges for women are new things; the oldest is less than seventy-five vears old. They had to fight their way in the face ot a general preju dice against educating girls. They have always been "hard up," having to make a dollar do the work of three, while men's colleges have ob tained large endowments. Now the seven leading women's colleges have united in an appeal for financial aid in carrying on the work of giv ing girls an equal chance with bojs. It takes courage and faith to try to raise a fund of thirty million dol lars in times like these. If it were men who were trying I would say they hadn't a chance. But when women start after a thing they usually get it, so I have hopes that Barnard, Bryn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Radcliffe, Smith, Vassar and Wellesley will find their money somewhere. Taxes ... the Georgia way j What usually happens when the politicians in control of the reins of government find that there is a sur plus of tax income over necessary expenses, is that they create a lot of. new jobs and so find ways to spend more than the revenues. j The city of Fairburn, Georgia, seems to be in the hands of a differ ent sort of officials. Finding itself with a surplus of $5,000 in the muni cipal treasury, enough to run the city for a year, it has declared all taxes off for a year. Did anybody ever hear of anything {ike that before? I never did. Banks . . . afod social service I was sitting in the president's of fice of the little country bank where I do business when the cashier came in. A village man who had had a lot of sickness in his family, and was being pressed for doctor's and other bills, wanted to borrow fifty dollars. "He's honest ?" asked the president. "Absolutely," the cashier replied. "Got a job?" "Works for the town." "Find out how much he owes in all, and let him have what he needs to clean up, up to a hundred dollars' said the president. Take his note and tell him to pay what he can when it's due and we'll renew the rest. And, John," the president added, as the cashier turned to go, "you can handle any other cases of the same sort the same way. That's real banking, because it's human banking. Big banks that have to delegate all their functions to clerks, and lay down rujes whioh must not be departed from can't lend McKee Again Is Chosen As Party Leader ? ?. 1 Mr. E. L. McKee was unanimously elected to succeed himself as Ch tir inan of the Democratic Executive Committee for Jackson County, art a rccent meeting of the committee.

Miss Jane Coward was reelected as secretary to the committee, Impost which she has held for four rtfars. At the recent county convention a rising vote ?f thanks was cxtfaded to both Mr. McKee and Miss Cffgard for the efficient work that theyshave done, and their untiring loyal^r to the party. ? , ?

Hall, which oc curred at his residence Tuesday night, following a surgical operation which Drs. Hilliavd and WilTiams had been called from Asheville to perform, as the last hope of saving his life?. Mr. ITall was widely known and univers ally esteemed. He was a prominent merchant, was county treasurer for a number of years, and a well he loved member of the masonic fratern ity, with the ceremonies of which order he is to be buried tomorrow afternoon.

She and some of her little brothers and sisters wen playing and saw it on a lo; ways in which its members can a?tu something to their $10,000 sala Every member, for example, is cti titled to charge 40 cents a mile for travel between his home district and Washington, at the beginning and end of each session of Congress. Tin' runs up into material money i* ease of a member from the t Coast, who can put' in a bill lor ' to $1,200 at least twice ii y " travel expense," whetiur Ih home between sessions or not. Some Fast Travelers Instances have been uncovered where members collected round-trip travel expenses between the end of a regular session and the beginning of a special session which begun <>?iy a few days later, when it would bin < been imjx?ssible for them to go 1. and back in the time allowed. got their travel pay, nevertheless. Legal, of course ? but is it legitimate and honest? In the matter of members of th': families on Government pa.vrof ? it Bo* men and not a few Senators anxious that nobody goes into their home dis tricts with the facts. Each member is allowed $2,000 a year for a secretary. In addition, every committee of each house has an appropriation for a committed clerk, and that appoin' inent is at the disposal of the chair man of the committee. Besides those, functionaries, there are literally hun dreds of other employees in awl around the Capitol and the Sen and House office buildings ? some thing more more than 3,000 in all. Many members appoint their wives or their sons as secretaries, put nephews and other relations in as pages, clerks and the like. The re cord is nol yet complete, but enough has been discovered to indicate that there are comparatively few members of either house v;ho have not been able to add a few thousand a year to the family income by these methods. Matty Wrinkled Brows As stated before there is nothing partisan about this inquiry. Just about as many members of one party as of the other are concerned. Besides the money perquisities, members have luxurious offices fur nished at Government expense, elab orate Turkish baths and barber shops the best restaurant in Washington for their exclusive use, and many other luxuries which make the life of a Senator or Representative far from unpleasant. What is worrying some of (hem now, however, is the fear that the facts about these thing* will gel buck home where their con stituent n are groaning under the bur den of taxes imposed by these same lawmakers. The facts might result in some embarrassing questions between now and election.
