FRIDAY, JUNE 9, 1922 NUMBER 2S AN ANNUAL COUNnFAK Writer Explains V^alue And Urge* A Grand County Fair. Editor of the Brevard News: We wish to show some of the bene fits to be derived by the people of Transylvania county from our hav-; ing an annual county fair. In the first place it will prove to ke a great social occasion for our peo pie in affording them an opportunity ! meet together once a year, if only for the social feature connect ed wltli the occasion. But there is a financial advants.'ge to be gained from this ainnial fair that cannot be derived in any other wav. When we bring together once a y0ar 'our best horses and cattle, our 1>est 'hogs and .sheep, our finest tur- ; keys and chickens, it creates a rival ry 'among our stock and poultry rnis- ; ers, and they go to work with the desire and determination * to be the Vimier at the next fan* if it be pos sible for them to outdo their neigh- Iroro. If the farmers Ijring the be?t “Com. the largest pumpkins, melons, turnips, and finest alfalfa, soy beans, i crimson clover, vetcli and the ^^mall grains and grasses; if some_one .^hows tlie biggest cabbage, tlie finest to matoes, the best irisTi potatoes and tsv/eet potatoes, it xiauso/; the one who falls behind his Treigliboi to work j with a determined resolution not co j l)e outdone next year. i When a sturdy old farmer v-;-.i to the fair the bigcest rosy-c"' 1 ( Tipple, the most delicious peac finest bunch of lucious grapes, it will i cause the others wlro are presc '" ■ , ?ay: “Surely I can do as well ''v -1 ing fine fruits as that bid man iias 1 done.” ! When our ladies exliibit the fin'’t ■needle work and crucheting, the iov-. Hest ouilts, the daintiest pillow case? •and shams, and all the other orna- i mental and useful articles which they are continually malcing;—^I say when all these things are shown at o’lr county fairs, it will cause n friendly rivalry among our lady friends vbnt. will add pleasure and profit to the peonle of our county. Everv thing that can be done o cause the people •of Transylvania countv to grow more and bott^r ‘s^onpojd TRfpiBS pXTB lUURJ . thing that will add to the tive stock in | dustry and to fruit prawing upon an ; extensive and scientific scale, all that ■ Avill help our lady friends to learn i ■more of the art of covlting, canning,; preserving and the variou other do- i mestic duties in which tliey are -?ngag ed will add to the wealtli of our peo- ; plo and -’ounty. ] In addition to the social an>>tlier i^ be without '-he home or witlirn it, be >50 ordered .'x? to fnrVh<'r instop.d intc^moting o't communion wiMi Thee.

CHIEF GAT-Lt5WXY 15DFFERS - PAINFUL TTfJURY Chief Galloway was struck by an automobile driven T>y Blanton Mit- ch''1 un last Saturday. Mr. Galloway wus hurrvinr to ^ <^-^oss the road in 'front of th“ Court j Houst and did not see the car com ing. While no i?efious'Tnjurv wa*i report at th'' pame time his right lee re-’eived Isad liruises and was very pa'^’ful.

The town will furnish a dray for the carry ing off of all trasli once a month to any citizen beginning in the near future. and sleep in order to try to regain the physical strength -necessary for the daily grind of another week-, and, ag a result , no time is .given to religious study or thouglit, and our spiritual lives are diwarted and we do not get the spiritual nourish ment that is necessary for the good of the soul. So we see that if our fairs cause Us to have more happiness and en joyment from a social standpoiM; enables us to live in greater comfwt and ease on account of our hav^g more of the necessities of life; if, on account of this added^ happiness and wealth our boys and girls remain in the good homes of our Transylva nia people and grow up to be moral upright citizens; and if we employ better pastors, better teachers for our day schools and our Sunday schools on account of our having the added wealth necessary to carry on this good work, we see readily it is to the ihterest of every forward- looking, progressive citizen of our good county to put his or her should ■ er to the wheel and make our county fair a success from every standpoint.
