Are we going to let this practice continue when it could be averted at a very smail cost to the owners of these plants? tihould we allow aie future of our city as the central gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, known for its thousands of natural beauties, be marred by a few selfish capitalists? Now is the time to join the movement that has been started to force these owners to do something, or .shall we keep on waiting ior them to fulfill their promises ihey nave made? If x we do, it will be when Gabriel mows 111s trumpet. Many will think thut vie are trying to put these well Known establishments but of business, but we believe that it *ill oe .or their good, and that they wiil realize that they can do .;oine ttiing with waste that tliey are now allowing to escape iiom their plants. We have laws that forbid pollutions of streams, and no per sons has the right to do anything that will pollute (he water of the person adjoining him. Shall we allo w the laws govern ing pollution to be forgotten, when our rl\ers are dirty, filthy, and unhealthy?

Uses Macon Products To Build Summer Home Atlanta Man Undismayed By Regulation* miu Shortages Hy (ill PAIL, JR. ? (Formerly of Highlands, now j a journalism student at the University of North Carolina i In the planning and building of his summer home, which is nearlng completion at White side View, near Hignlanui., j Harold N. Cooledge, of Atlanta, Ga., has illustrated conclusively 1 what can be accomplished in spite of the nation-wide shortage of building materials, by the use of a little imagination and the native resources and products of ivlac an County. Unreconciled to the Red Tape | and Anxiety of long waiting lists, Chaiactistic of the post war reconversion period, and intent upon having his home | ready for occupancy by next ; spring, Mr. i^ooieuge im&cu aneau with the materials at hand and has found mat ex ; pediency is not bad at all. rioui tne sjnd rock of White side Mountain, in which it is anchored, to the peak of the vermiculite roof, tne products of Macon County nave been j utilized to make one of the most attractive and most durable homes in this section. The outside walls, all of the partitions and even the floors of concrete blocks, manufactur ed scientifically in large num bers at Franklin. The Roof, supported by weld ed boiler tubes, is made of ver mlcullte, a product of the ver miculite deposits peculiar to the Ellijay section of Macon. Coun ty. Scarce materials, such as lumber, nails, roofing and j tlooring, have been ruled out aitogetner. Perhaps not since the Horse and buggy days, when the early settlers of Macon County pushed over the mountains and down the valleys and erected their homes out of boards hewn by their own hands, has a home been built in this area with so great a percentage of the materials coming directly out this county. Almost all counties could do the same in the horse and ouggy days, out it is unlikely ?that many of them can equal Macon County in this regard _*o day. l'his fact alone sets the home of Mr. Cooledge off as a mile stone in the annals of Macon county construction, a milestone I whicn the people of Macon county can look to with a douole .sense of pride in these days of so much dilemma in the field , of housing.
