Representative Clinton Kiser In the North Carolina legisla ture has displayed a brand of forthrightneas and courage of his convictions that Is pleasing to view these days. Among other things he cast the lone disent ing vote against the Governor's plan for redisricting and en largement of the highway com mission. He has not been awed Into submission by the cry, "The Governor want this." More power to him. As the Ral eigh News and Observer says concerning Mr. Kiser, "Some times this paper thinks Mr. Kiser tis been wrong. But by this time in the legislature of 1953 it is clear that Kiser of Scotland is almost uniquely ready to be a man, not merely part of a mass."

This Week With Macon County Agents By Mrs. Florence S. Sberrill (Home Agent) Every civic organization raises funds for community projects. Home demonstration clubs are no exception. Mrs. Homer Greene, reporter for the Carson Chapel Club, has been given the agent's column this week to tell what her club has under taken. With the goal to build a com munity house set up by the community development group, the 35 members of the Carson Chapel Club chose as their project for 1953 to raise funds to equip the kitchen. Although the first stone of the founda tion for a community house has not been laid, these women believe that to picture a well equipped kitchen in their minds will make every citizen work all the more. Mrs. Marie Rogers told of ho*( Franklin Garden Club members took one dollar and tried to make as much from the investment as possible. At the February meeting when the roll was called Mrs. Mamie Reynolds turned In $5.50 which she had made from the sale of pillow cases. Mrs. Reynolds laundered the white sacks from her chick en feed, she used colorful borders on some of the pillow cases, and on others she appli qued geometric designs. The de mand has exceeded production, according to Mrs. Reynolds, especially when she gets orders for kitchen curtains. Mrs. J. R. Ray invited her neighbors to see the inaugura tion on the Ray's television. Mrs. Ray served a plate lunch and contributions totaled an other $5 for the club project. Other means of raising funds included sale of eggs by Mrs. Earl Cabe; sale of cards by Mrs. Gordon Moore; and de licious cakes by Mrs. Adolph Zoellner. Mrs. Fred Moore is taking orders for white crochet ed gloves. Mrs. Homer Greene is making a child's dress, using a remnant, and will receive commercial price when she de livers the dress. Mrs. Jacob Vogel took home with her a pair of boy's over alls to sew on a patch with some money under the patch. 8he will paw the orsraiM on to another member. What fun tfc will be to Me bow mucb ? under all tbeae patches Thla amount will be added to the $19 turned In at the February meeting. Because of flu, attendance at the February meeting was low. We are looking forward to hearing from the others. Mrs. J. R. Ray la chairman of the community house kitchen project. Mrs. Frank Reece, Mrs. Gilmer Waldroop, Mrs. Marie Rogers, and Mrs. Homer Greene are committee members. In our money raising we have not lost sight of the home demonstration goal to build better homes. We believe with a community house in Carson Chapel we can offer more wholesome recreation for the young and those of us not so young. Asheville Dairy Buys Bull From A. B.
