" ' * 1 CAMP LIFE "IN THE L/VND.QF WATERFALLS" -T Among the chief natural advan tages of Transylvania County, in the immediate vicinity- of Brevard is its facilities for the location of summer ? Camp - Schools for boys and girls. More than any other spot in all of "Opportunity*s< Empire, the -Land of the Sky, ".has the Brevard sectipn beet^ favored in the selection of these camps, which are of thp high est grade .and conducted in a mosc efficient and satisfactory <manpar, Each year sees tome of the establish ed camps growing in size and popu larity, white not infrequently new in ? stUutions spring up to join thfe rankty of those who have been most suc . cessful in this' commendable enter ? prise Not) only does Brevard possess camps which give the boys and girls opportunity of enjoying the 4nS~*b<hlfeflW"of arr outdoor life Iwith boating, bathing,, canoeiifg and - other, water sports, in addition to the "hikes" to the nearby moun tain peaks and also the educational facilities of the camps, but it offers to the parents the happy combination ? of spending 'the summer near their . boys and girls; for while the child ' reri are in the camps, the parents are enjoying the pleasures ^of the hotel or boarding house at which they may be staying, and at the same time .are relieved of the responsibility of look ing after .t^eir lively offspring. Thir year the following camps will <Spen during this month: Camp Transylvania, Mr. J. A. Mil lar, fireyardj iN. C.; Camp Sapphire, Mr. Wm. McK. Fetzer, Chapel Hill, - N.

C. -A GOOD COUNTY TO LIVE IN i ' Transylvania is not thickly popu lated; in fact, there are less tfcan ten thousand inhabitants in the Whole ?county. Of course this is greatly laj, creased by the tourists in summer month*. 1 However, with the rapid develop ments in the way of building, farm improvements, good roads, state maintained, etc., this county will be overflowing in a few years with imi grants from all 'sections of the coun try. The 1921 tax assessment per inhabitant for Transylvania county was $9.27. Real estate in this coun ty (? very low in price and no doubt will double in value in less than m. year. \ . MR. GRIST ASSUMES A HEAVY . RESPONSIBILITY . A -second state primary must be held "because one of the candidates has demanded it. Paradoxically enough, the person who is willing to inflict the cost and inconveniences of a second election op this politics shocked state is seeking one of the remunerative and exalted of state offices. The candidate who shoulders this libitity in such an in-j |OM is FRANK D. GR1| The office to which he aspires set cove tously is that of Commissioner of Labor and Printing. He was out distanced in the firat primary by the present . incumbents M, L. SHIPMAN who received a plurality of 12,000, Only 50,000 votes out of a total of 200,000 were cast for the other can-, didates in the nice. The rtinners-up in the pther con tests which failed to show jnajori_ ties refused to ca'l a second primary Xhe fact that the expense and dis comfort of another election is to be visited Upon the people of North Carolina is ,due solely to Mr. Grist and his inexplicable ambitions. ' The office ,of Commissioner of La bor and Printing carries with is cer tain responsibilities but it is not im portant enoijgh in tile governmental ?jcheme of 'things to warrant a sec ond primary.- The state would make a good bargain if jt could abolish the office in return for immunity from' a second primary., ? Mr. Grist, we suspect, will be cruelly puAished for his hardihood. Candidates who call second pri maries lightly do not fare well with public opinion. His action will in sure to Mr, SHIPMAN b decisive majority. ? Asheville Times (M. L. SHIPMAN) (Continued from First Page) position available in his department |to. Lieutenant G. Fred Hale, and has since given preference to service men in all placement work. His present chief clerk Is Mr. J. G. Melntyre, a Legionnaire in gooci standing. Em ployment , superintendents in the State have had instructions from the outset to give preference to service men in placement work, and hun dreds of them have found lucrative positions through this agency. 4. In his files are letters from prom_ inentj Legion officials, including one from a former State Adjutant and present National Committeeman of the American Legion, thanking him for his work in behalf of unem ployed veterans and complimenting him on the good work that was beins accomplished in this direction, Em ployment offices are now in opera tion in Asheville, Charlotte, Greens boro, Raleigh, Wilmington, and in&ton Salem, for which Mr. Ship ?oan :s entitled to full measure ' of credit. ? I < * This is the Hype of citizen, and official his home-folks offer for ^h; consideration of the. Democratic Vf> ters of North Carolina when they ?:ome to make their choice of .a can- ? didate for Commissioner of Labor afid Printing on Saturday, July 5th THE ONLY El^TRANT FOR A 3TATE OFFICE FROM THAT .VIDE EXPANSE OF TERRITORY -TYING WEST OF THE BLUE .tIDGE; a man whorreceived his edu :ation in the university of haro cnocks ; a public servant who ha: proven himself capable in ever} /.?ay and true to every trust. THEY ARE AFTER SHIPMAN'S SCALP (From NortbHampton Progress, , It is going to take forty thousand dollars of your money to convince Mr, F. D, Grist ^hat he has been de feated. *?; v.'- . J" Mr. "Grist is the only man on State ticket- who is demanding a . s cond primary, andhe ran ' severe', thousand votes behind Shipman, thr incumbent. Do any of you voters in North - Hampton County belieye that Mr. Grist's services will be^ worth forty thousand dollars more to the State than will Mr. Shopman's? If not, then are you 'Willing to 1 put up that much money to gratify one man's ambition? 'Now, all you voters who are will ing to pay that enormous amount of money in order to defeat Shipman, etc., on the 5th of July and vote for Grist. He will be an expensive man, but there is nothing like getting po litical satisfaction, even though you do have to pay for it. The trouble with Shipman is that he demands a dollars Worth of value for every dollkr his department pays out, and if you had a few more pub lic servants like that your taxes [ would soon be reduced to a point where you would hardly feel them. But that disagreeable policy of Shipman's is contrary to the inter est of certain gentlemen, so they are j after his scalp. They have gathered eaiy money from the State before j Shipman's day, and it is hard for j them to understand that the ban is I placed on shoddy work; that they must deal honestly with the State in so far as the Department of Labor and Printing is concerned. So it remains to be seen whether or not economy, efficiency, and hon est merit are appreciated by the pco ple. Give Shipman a vote of thanks for j his stand, and tryv to get more like j him to fill your public offices. It will pay you.
