It cost North Carolina $t)00 to in
augurate the new Governor. It' he
continues in the course that ho has
started, it. will lie worth tnnnv times
that to the State.
The headliners insist that the log
udutive commit tee is to study the
State's finances. Our observation
would be that it is the lack of fi
nances that is to be studied.

It should be understood in Hal -igh

does not include a ]>olitica! .job for

All this talk of a Bob Reynolds
political machine to displace the old
one of the Simmons vintage, mrkes

doe* not want a 'political machine.
And, our opinion is that the attempt
to organize "one is far from the mind
of the gonial Bob.
Put old every department that is
not essential. Cut out every employe

There has hem comment that there
are many youngsters iu both House
and Senate, at Raleigh. Maybe so;
hut it i* well that it was young men
who fought and won the Great War.
If they can win a battle in this war
against the depression, the "ehih'ron
will' havo another victory for their
to place to their credit.
The monntain8 greet and salute the
new Governor from the Albemarle.
That was a powerful address oi
Governor Ehrirphaus. It showed
much thought, thorough conversance
with the state of the State, and was
forcefully and pleasingly delivered.
North Carolina can feel safe with the
leadership of this, the first Govemo;
fioni the Albemarle, cradle of Eng
lish civilization in America.
i>ome of th<-se days Japan, if she
persists in her present course, will
eome t?> lier senses, some fine looming
and find that she has go?u-n what
she has been asking for during thes

nation can continuously court t:'?
b!e without finally finding it. ^
man's neighbors will bear w'ih liin
patiently, sometimes, for long p^r
icds. The world is in no mood fo
fighting; but Japan cannot eontinw
to sow tin; teeth of the dr::gon with
out reaping n harvest of sorrow. Til
military leaders of Japan might, wit!

ii 1932 there was a decided decrease
?i the sale of marriage licenses in
the county. Our neighboring states of
eorgia and South Carolina are get
ing most of the business that should
e eomiug into this county. I would
iot be surprised if most of the preach
rs m the county have forgotton how

>ng has it been since a marriage has
aken place in the county. Only 131
teoplr have been marriinl in Jack
in county in the past three years,
i the records at the register of deeds
ft'ice show. And the records show
'iat there were 54 licenses secured
'u 1931, and only 41 iu 3032;
no, it seems that the lassies
were n wee bit new at this art of
proposing. At any rate it is a new
year, and oulv time can tell.

As a fitting tribute to the great

Candler, Col. C. .1. Harris, of Dills

beautiful pink marble tablet in the

community hospital to Dr. Candler.
The inscription on th? tahb-t reads:

The imich-talked-alwHit road, High

day this week there were fifteen cars

on the road. That statement sounds
as if it is twenty years old, but it

A TEST OF GENIUS
*HE shortest verse in the New Testament is "Jesus wept." That
X tragic note in hi> M >ry the (?osj>el record has carefully pre
served. How we wish it might aho have told us what occurred 011
the night after the chronic old grumbler was healed at the river.
Did Jens stop suddenly in thr: middle of the sup
per, and set down his cup. while a broad smile
spread across his wonderful face? If he did the
disciples were probably puzzled ? they were so
often puzzled ? but surely we have the reverent
right to guess what was in his mind, as he pictured
the home-coming of that cured old man. On that
evening surely Jesus must have laughed.
Some one has said that genius is the ability
'to become a boy again at will. Lincoln had that
type of genius. Around his table in Washington
Bruce Barton sat the members of his Cabinet silenced by their
overwhelming sense of responsibility. It was one of the most mo
mentous meetings in our history. To their amazement instead of
adderssing himself directly to t he-business in hand. Lincoln picked
up a volume and began to read aloud a delightful chapter of non
sense from Artemus Ward.
Frequent chuckles interrupted the reading, but they came only
from the President. The Secretaries were too shocked for expres
sion! Humor at such an hour? it was well nigh sacrilegious! Heed
less of their protesting looks, Lincoln finished the chapter, closed
the Ixiok and scanned their gloomy faces with a sigh.
"Gentlemen, why don't you hugh ?" he exclaimed. "With the
fearful strain that is upon me night and day. if I did not laugh
I should die; and you need this medicine as much as I."
With that remark he turned to his tall hat which was 011 the
table and drew forth what Secretary Stanton descrihed as a "little
white paper."
The "little white paper" was the F.mnncipation Proclamation.
Stanton could hardly restrain his impulse to walk out of the
room. No one of his Cabinet really understood Lincoln. He was
constantly scandalizing them bv his calm disregard of conven
tion, and his seemingly prodigal waste of time. The friends and
advisers of Jesus were similarly shocked. How could anv one with
such important business allow himself to be so casuallv interrupted
t?i heal a self-pitving old man at the river! One of the surest marks
of greatness, of course, is accessibility and the api>earance 0/ hav
ing an unstinted allowance of time. "Kxtreme busvness is a symp
tom of deficient vitality, says Stevenson, I he disciples were ex
tremely busy. J whs most of all. He was the treasurer of the group,
harassed because expenses ran high and there was no certainty of
tomorrow's income.. Jesus brushed away such petty worries with
a smile.
"Consider the lilies of th" field." lie exclaimed. 'tliev toil not
neither do they spin, yet Solomon in ;,ll |,i> glorv was 110't a r raved
I k.- one of these.*'

SYLVA FIREMEN LOSE TO

The Canton Y eagers came to town
Wednesday night and went back to
liay wood victorious over the Sylva
Smoke Chasers? bnt they knew thai
tlicy had been in a basketball game,
as the score indicates ? a 41 to 40
victory.
Piucaiiiiou led a band of basket
eers tli.it were off form as their play
showed. Unable to register crip shots
t lie Chasers were at a loss. Fincan
non led his mates and opposing, play
ers in scoring honors with 22 i>oints.
Hill, of Canton, was his nearest rival
with 17 points. Wahnetah, the dash-,
i n.u Cherokee, who entered the game
in the second period, was a thorn in
[the sides of Canton players as they
attempted to score, llis work was out
standing both as a defensive and of
fensive player. He was by far flic
outstanding guard on the floor.
The Canton girls won over the
Sylva girls in a preliminary tilt by
n 29 to 12 score. The Sylva girls have
.just organized and have not yet had
the chance to give an* account of
themselves.
The Sylva Smoke Chasers will meet
the Canton team on the Canton hard
wood, Saturday night, in an effort
to avenge the one-point defeat Wed
