L.^asui Hi" i n *7 .a?, .TACK SON OOUHTY JOURNAL Published Weekly By The JACKS OS COUNTY JOURNAL CO. 0 . HI. ? . ? ? .1 I ? . . ? I - ? - finlered as second ole^d matter at t tie post office at Sylva, N. C. DAN TOMPKINS, Editor We il make a sir. all wager that half llie Frenchmen wort1' their arms off | fcicaok up to their shoulders, talking about that war debt payment By the way, the 'payment of a llock of subscriptions between now nud Christmas would come in mighty fc it udy around the Journal office. We have often wondered why they ?! ways begin building roads in this muddy country just before Christ nml the rains and snows come. The French have defaulted on the payment on tho war debt, duo toaay ; .nit hanged if wo arc going over and I irv our hand at collecting it. I lief you Mr. Postmaster General ' Urown, if he had been in business on his own, during 1932, would have traded hats instead of automobiles, if he had been doing the paying out of his own pocket. Wasn't "Our Rob't." strutting his ;>tuf?, tho oTher day, when the Viei I*r?idwit allowed him to preside over the Senate f There ought to J>e plen ty of glory in that to do even Bob i'or Meveral days. While these engineer 'boys art Ringing wound, we would like t<> ? s. e era using up part of their time .surveying 106 from the forks of the,' river to Cashiers Valley, prepara tory to an early surfacing. The Journal is in a receptive ir.ooil ' to subscription payments. The .;n</ 1'orius to the left, ladies am! :?? 'tleraeu, arid please don't crowd., 1 1 ?' dou't want anyone to be hurt in j i iie rush. The suggestion of the French edit- 1 >?> that France pay us the twenty] ji.iun dollars in ehampaigne 1m re-j ?pectfully referred to Bishop Can non, Bob Reynolds, Seott MeBride, Al. Smith, and Mabel Walker Wille braut, with Mayor K?-y, of Atlanta, an refferee. ? A fool boy drew a gun on the low er house of Congress and tried to make 'em stand while he made n speech. A wise congressman from out in Minnesota spoke kindly to him i nnd eolled him "son'. Tho demented , lad surrendered the gun. Truly, as{ the wiso n an said, Ci a soft answer j turneth away wrath". Postmaster General Brown, the po litical light in tho Hoover cabinet, got two Lincoln cars, at government ??xepense, during the year, when he was allotted only one. Inquiry dis closed that he had the government buy the second one because the first was too low for his high, silk hat, forcing him to either stoop, while riding in the palatial car, or carry his hat in his hand ? so Uncle Sam got him another automobile. This happened in a year when millions of Americans couldn't even thumb a rido in a second-hand flivver, and were thankful to get almost any kind oE an old hat. ? t , ? . \ ? , ) A Republican from Pennsylvania introduced a resolution, the other day, to impeach President Hoover, sand a North Carolina Democrat mov ed to tabic it, which was done with a'aerity, only 8 members voting tc refer it a committee for investi gation. Strange things happen, thes* day*. The Journal is sure that Mr. Daughton didut vote for Mr Hoover in the election, and has been wonder ing just for whom Mr. McFaddej; cast his ballot. At any rate, the reso lution smacked too much of kicking a man when he is down, to suit the N American sense of good-sportsman *hip. Tho people have already spok *" their piece very effectively; and th" impeachment of a President is too serious a matter to be enteral into lightly, or to give vent to per sona' spleen. The MeFadden resolu tion is the first time that it has been attempted since the old line Radi cals nearly sucoeeded in unseating that (Treat and grand man, President Andrew Johnson, to whom all lovers of constitutional government owe an everlasting debt of gratitude; and, if we haven't forgotten our history, it was ? Pentrylvanian who was the ring leader fca that wrry spectacle. It sbodld be seen to that Santaj Clftus comes to ?very home in Ameri- ! ?a, this Christinas. Wouldn't be much ! of a Christmas if he didn't. THE ROTARY WHEEL ?i ?; ^ I (By John Parris, Jr.) Guest speaker at the weekly meet-j ing of the Sylva Kotary Club was Charles Robinson, of East Laportc. 1 .Mr. Robinson made a very interest-! ing ta'k, taking as his theme, "Look-! iug In on Hotarv From the Outside". He spoke o ft he fine things that he' knew the Sylva Rotarians haw ae- 1 complish/d ; their aims, ideals and views. Mr. Robinson having come to Jackson county .12 years ago when tho streets of Sylva were a sea of ii. nd, and the road to Cullowhec and j Hast I<aporte was almost impassable, I made a statement to the effect that I ??< (he years have passed, Jackson county has made a decided improve ment. I * . - ? it- I ; ) , ! He praised the mountain people. ' Mr. Robinson said in part. ^'Although | my wifo and I have ties in other Isfates, we have come to like the eli |iiuite, the people of Jaekson county J their fine' spiiit of hospitality and 1 ri >nd.-hip. and the spirit of progress vhich the p-ople have here. And I hope that it will be possible for my i family to continue to live hciv> in i.'nekson count v'". i I '/* j He went further to tell how the tary c'nh looked to a person on the outside who was not connected with it, and the impression that was jcaile by their acts and deeds. j His ,sp;\ch was one of the best I ? ver listened to by yours truly, and >"f carried a niexsa <rc that held the listening Rotarians in its grasp. Tt ? .as one of those speeches that seem : ? g' ip you. And as Mr. Robins:>n i loscd his talk there was silence for :? seeruul or two- then applause broke Joosp that was from appreciative hearts. The Rotary meetings which have I-een conveuiug at 7 o'clock, will be gin hereafter promptly at ti:.*M) There seemed to he some argument at the Tuesday meeting as to just what was the scheduled hour. of' meeting. It' t hi' road to Cullowhec gets much1 .orse the Rotarians of that place, will have to hold their meetings at Cullowhec. President Hunter sug gested that the Cullowhec Rotarians hold their meetings there if the road becomes impassable. If the rain i ontinues for a few more days it looks as if tbev will have to hold their meetings at CnlhWhee for the road to Cullowhec is now a'most a 'ca of floating mud. Heretofore, it was rumored at the Rotary Meetings), the program com mittee had hot heeai functioning. But this rumor can not go the rounds again. Not at present, anyway. So the bouquet of what-have-you goes to Tom Femald who was ^ in charge of the program Tuesday night, and who brought as his guest, Charles ltobinsdsi, who made that wonder ful talk. Off goes the old brown derby to Mr. Femald with cheers galore. TODAY and ' TOMORROW i (Continued fron> page one) ? Tunney ... a .model Crossing thi* Atlantic one of mv fellow-passengers was a Yale profes sor, who told me that almost the en tire faculty of thai university felt the greatest admiration for 4'(.{(W Tonney, retired heavyweight boxing champion. Gene took some spccial courses at Yale, and has lectured to student classes on Shakespeare. ''What we admire about Gene is his character and his intelligence in developing his native ability,*' said my ship-board acquaintance. "If he had never been a professional pugil ist he would have risen to the top in some other line. He set out to make himself independent while still ; young, and devoted all of his physi cal powers to that end. Then he had .senso enough to quit the ring and de ( vote himself to the development of ibis great mental powers. He made i a place for himself an:o??r people of l culture ami refinement. "That is a far rarer achievement and more difficult than becoming n world's champion in sports.' And that is something few young men can understand. Youth seldom realizes that after the physical pow i rs have waned life holds little hap piness for the man who has not cultivated his mental garden, while for those who have taken that pre caution for the future, the later (vpars bring more precious and satis (lYing fruits than vonth ever dreams :of.
