CHOSEN TO HEAD
PARK COMMSSION
W. W. Neal, o? Marion, haa been
appointed by Governor Ehriughaus to
head the North Carolina Park Com
mission in tlu; future. Other members
of the commission appointed are: C.
A. Cannon, Concord, Thomas W. Ka
on), Asheville, John Aiken, Hickory,
and Foster llankius, Lexington.
The (governor, in nu king appoint
ment of n commission in which the
extreme western count Us are vitally
interested, entirely ignored them
again, although ihey aro the counties
most affected by the park, and are
tlu* counties, by the way which are
responsible for Ehringhuus being tin
Governor, for they piled up ;?.?? al
most unanimous vote for him iiPthe
second primary and secured his nom
ination. Without tbe help of these
counties hevwould never have been
Govenor.
\
Last winter, while the Gen em I As
cetnhly was in session, the Governor
told the representative from Hay
[ woo.li and the represuiative lion.
Jackson that, when the time crme
for appointing the park commission
he would give the counties ot Hay
wood, Jackson and Swain represen
tation on the body, as they are the
counties nost interested.
The personnel of the new park con
mission, while composed of able men,
end men who will probably carry on
the work \o successful! conedusiou,
comes, never-the-less, from Buncombe
McDowell, Cabarrus, Catawba, and
Davitteoh. They could not have the
natural interest nor the natural know
ledge of end in th? park, that men
from the borders of the park itself
hit *??*, and the people of the
counties nearer the park are wonder
ing why the Governor ignored the
counties most nffoetid and the coun
ties that placed him in the Guberna
torial chair.
The p H)ule of the counties are anac
ions t?> cooperate to tbe fullest ex
tr nt with Chainr.au Neal and his com
mission. They hilieve that Mr. Neal
will work with the people and the
f deral atrfiici.ee in the completion of
the park project; nnd thev are not
objecting to the ability of the nten
who were appointed, noi1 to the nun
themselves but rather to the fact
that they v/ere forgotten when the
appointments were made.
However, the appointments have
been made, and the important thmi
right now is for the commission, the
p'opl" and, the federal agencies to
bend their efforts to the main task of
speedily onnjl'cting ihe park and
formally opening it to the public.
McmiviS of the old commission
were: Mark Squires, of Lenoir, chair
man, Harry Nettles, Plato Ebbs, both
of Asheville, Dave Buck, BaliU Moun
tain, Dr. E. C. Brooks, Raleigh, F. L.
Dunlap, Wadi?boro, Dr. Fred Hanes,
Winston-Sivleir., Stuart Cramer, Gra
in rton, R. T. Fountain, Rocky Mount
Elmer Long, Durham and John G.
Dawson, Kinston.

Large Crowds Expected
To Attend Sylva's First
July Bargain Carnival
TODAY and
TOMORROW
(By Frank Parker Stock bridge)
AMBITION ... Serge had it
When I hear farmers talking as if
they were all headed for the poor
house I think of my neighbor, Seige
Katorskv. Serge came over from Rus
sia just before the we.r, because lie
had five children and! wanted to give
them a ehance. He had about three
hundred dollars to start with.
He bought a couple of hundred
acres of eheap n:ountaLn land e.bout
five miles from my farm, and started
to work. He repaired flic tumble
down old house, and in these twenty
years has so improved ii that it is
the most comfortable farm house I
have ever seen. There e.ne eleven
children now, seven of them through
high school, two through college,
three of tin girls finishing up in the
State Normal School. And what
marks those Katorskv kids do get in
school !
Serge started with some scrub cows
but has bred up his dairy herd until
it's one of the best in the district.
They grow or nine practically all
they eat, and they certainly live well.
Serge Katorskv had the two essen
tials for successful living, industry
and ambition. With those a man can
get almost anywhere.
COLORS .. . . have a care
If von t;\ke your automobile with
you on your tour of the world, be
sure iho color is one that won't of
fend the people #f-~Tmy- particular
nation. In Finland they don't permit j
cars or anything else to lie painted
red. Re-* is the color of Communism,
and ih."' Finns are scary about their
communistic neighbors next door in
Russia.
One American got into trouble in
.T:'va with a light cream-colored car.
White and ercam are mourning colors
in the Dutch Kasi Indies, and arc
permitted only on hearses. A yellow
car is an offense in China, for the
same reason.
You don't want to tab- a green err
to either England or India. In Eng
land there is a popular superstition
that green is an unlucky color. Books
and plays have been written about
girls who wore grOn stockings, with
the result tluy never could get a
man to marrv them! And in Ind'a
green is reserved for the rrse of pious
Mohammedans who have made the
i>ilgrit?:,ige to Mecca and so are en
titled to wear the green turban:
Better p'ay safe ? if you're really i
going ? and take v. plain black or j
dark blue car with you on your world
tour.
FIRST . . . two ,more
My friend .Toe Kane has written a
hook to Jteil who was ih.?> first to do
or make many things in common use.
It's an interesting hook, railed
'?Famous First Facts," hut I ran
.??cross a couple of "firsts" the other
day that .Toe hasn't got in his hook.
The firsf whit.<* bread wa<# trade hv
ail English miller, Hugh Paddington,
because a nohleman in his town want
ed bread to match his white tahle
linen! That was news to m? when
Frank Romcr told me.
And the first pave:11 street in
America is in down-town^ Xew York.
It is named, 'appropriately, Stone
Street. A Dutch brewers wife in
1648 got tired of having her hus
band's drays mired in the mud. so
she had her servants lay cobble
stones the whole length of the street.
BUNK . . . grain alcohol
We heard :> lot, last year, about a
great scheme to convert surplus grain
into alcohol. The idea was to save
ilie fanner by requiring every gallon
of gasoline to be n ixed with a cer
tain portion of grain alcohol.
The fuel research committee of the
National Automobile Chamber of
Commerce comes alomr now ' and
piinetmes that balloon. The ??asol'ne
aleohol mixture, it finds, while it en
ables the motor to accelerate faster,

Sylvas f'iist July Carnival of bar
gains star is tomorrow, Friday, morn
ing anil will continue through the
rest of this month.
j Large /rowds of thrifty shoppers
j fiom Jackson and the surrounding
: ci?iiiuL< s are e.\|>ectcd jto come to
Sylva and take advantage of the low
prices that will previal during the
Bfiigi'in Carnival.
The Carnival is here, and Bargains
will reign as King of the Carnival in
thi" Shops of Sylva, that are partici
pating in the event.
Almost every pliase of merchandis
ing is represented in the participat
ing shops; and no matter what char
acter of merchandise you are in need
|cf, the nuri^iaiits spate that you
should be able to find just what you
want, and at a price that will make
it worth your while to come to Sylva
to the Carnival of Bargains.
It has Wen pointed out (hat most
of the schools of the county will open
on July 11, the day that the Carni
val comes to a close, and that the
parents of school l>oys and girls will
1>. enabled to do their shopping for
tl " needs of the school children, at
advantageous prices, during the Car
nival. Of course this does not apply
to school books, as they are sold un
der contra'! prices, and the cost can
be neither r.dsed or lowered! from the
prices obtaining in this and other
States.
The advantage thai the location of
I Sylva gives it, it is pointed out, con
tiib::tcs to making it a natural shop
ping ??? liter for a large area of West
ern North Carolina, and it is to stress
this idea, and to show the people that
they can advantageously shop in Svl
vn. that th?? Bargain Carnival was in
itiated, and the first one staged at a
time when the market on practically
all commodities is rising.
The merchants, and people of Svlva
are ex|M'eti?g a large crowd of the
{thrifty to show their interest in ef
fecting real' savings, in buying good
m -rchandise at hargtin prices, and
I p icketing or banking the difference,
| by coming tc Sylva during the Bar
g.-in Carnival.
The Sylva shops, it has been re
, p;>at( (llv pointed out by people eom
! ing here, are Par superior, present
! better appearance, and offer wider
ranges from which to make sc
i lotions than are those of most
twwns of vastly greater population
than Sylva. and the merchants who
'are participating to the Bargain
Carnival, are doing so with a view
of demonstrating to the people of the
large legitimate trade territory of
Sylva, that it is to their advantage
to shop in Sylva.
SYLVA COMPANY

Tin* owners of the Svlva Paper
board Company have recently pur
chased another ]>aperboard mill, at
I Nashville, Tonn, which also makes
