-5 RIDAY, APRIL 13, 1923 THE BREVARD NEWS, BREAR D, NORTH CAROLINA 5 CITIZENS MUST LOOK AHEAD Advice Given to Kansas City Men Applicable to Every Town in the United States. A city ought to ho willing to look at least its far into the future as real estate men do when they draft the terms of a 00-year lease, Charles Moore, the art arbiter of Washington, D. C, said in a short talk before the closing session of the Kansas City realtors' conference. "A city like Kansas City is master of its own fate,'' he continued. "The Kuropean monarchs of old did some wonderful thingsfor themselves. We are our own masters und can do what we have a mind to." Mr. Moore urged Kansas City to do something big, to .get beyond "small plans." "Any plans we make, our sons and grandsons will find too small," bo ex plained. "Yes, and before you die you will-find your biggest plan not big enough. "And don't look over your shoul der," lie advised. "Always there is a great deal mote to do than you can do in a lifetime. Look ahead, not backways, and you won't be downcast at the progrr." The Home Fires. Mark Twain said that a bed was the most dangerous place to be, since more persons died in bed than else where. Recent surveys have devel oped that the whole house is a dan gerous place. A man's house is his castle, perhaps, but S'M of these "castles" are going up in smoke on this one day in the United States, ac cording to statistics compiled by an insurance company. That number of homes burn tn every working day of the year. More than ('." per cent of the tires in the United States originate in residences, and 10,000 of the lf,HH) persons who lost their lives in tires last year died in residence fires. Record Gold Nuggets. The largest gold nugget ever found came from Chile, weighed more than 400 pounds troy, and was worth near ly $100,000. The second largest, weigh ing 21M pounds, was mined in liallarat, Australia, in 1S'0. The third largest was picked up at Carson Hill. Cala veras county, Calif., in 3SH4. It was a lump about 15 inches long, 0 wide and 4 thick, weighed 105 pounds troy, and brought more than $43,000. French Ravine, Sierra county, Calif., was a perfect nest of big nugget-.. A $5,000 one was found there in 1S50, an $S,0(X one in 1S51 and a SlO.tMX) one In 1S55 thus proving Uiat in mining lightning sometimes does strike more than once in the same place. Leasing and Character. The most highly moral way for you to live and for your children to grow up is to own your own home. Mov ing every year or every few years is disorganizing, wasteful, demoralizing. Work toward owning your own home and no matter how simple it may be. it will have dignity. A homestead gives character, backbone, individual ity. In it develop our strongest ;ind best impressions. It serves as many diil'orcnt kinds of an anchor in peace- J fill times as well as- iu stormv ones. ! Male Deer Shed Horns Each Year. All male 'leer, known as stags, bucks or harts, have solid, branching horns, or antlers, which they shed each year. Kxeeptlng reindeer, female deer, also called hinds or does, do not bear ant lers, nor do the young, which are known as fawns. Antlers are out growths from bone and are at first very sensitive, being covered with flesh and velvetv skin. When the antlers i are fully developed the skin dries and is removed by rubbing against trees, leaving bare bones.
