The audience on Wednesday night was. so. pleased- that the di rectors, Mrs. Vera Little-. Goode and Mr. B. W. Wayland, were in duced to give a matinee Thursday. The strife between | Righteous ness; and Sin was strikingly de picted. The young women repre senting the vices Were selected for their beauty and charm, that- the strength -of temptation might be made plain and, \hey- acted *well their part. * Where all did . so well it is .hard .to make, individual "mention. But some ' characters were particularly outstanding. Mrs. H. R. Walker as the Spirit of song, sang with feeling and im pressiveness to touch a stone. Thfe strength and serenity of Mrs. W. H. ]Harris as Church, driv ing away evil, putting her pro tecting arm about the weak was es pecially good. , Mrs. Welch Galloway as Mother, touched the" hearts of her audience .as she plead' fop her wandering girls. .

CAROLINA INC COMMUNITY WORK Wstern North Carolina, Inc., is i striving for a Western North Car-i olina community whose enlightened public opinion will demand effic ient government of its several counties, cities and towns; churches that will send out men. and wo men with ideals of service to all; ' schools that will teach citizenship and use of hands as well as a de sire for knowledge and all .that qiak.es for a richer individual Intl conununity life; a park and play ground system w*hich will provide for whQl^setne and healthy recrea tion fo$ children and adults; and a public opinion that will stress the value of real architectural designs in public and private buildings; the cultural value of museums of art and jifierjee, And the value of com-, munity ind social service. A regional planning is desired that will consider, Western North Carolina as a "whole, and that will give t b each community, town and city the best advice and sugges tions for plans; of exp&nsionv which will .result in the several develop ments blending and harmonizing with each other, and witlv the spleiidid natural beauties of moun tains, jijlls, valleys, and woodlands with, which "Western North Caroli na is so richly endowed.' Western, North , Carolina, Inc., wishes to bring . to this section ( a man who :a. nationally known as a" master of Regional planning. In order lhat ' such "an undertaking can be successfully carried ' out without prohibitive cost to any one ' community, it will be necessary, that several towns or. cities co-op eratfe in: contracting for his ser vices. If you arc interested in en^ taring into such a plan %we will thank you to advise us. In Visiting the j several section)! of Western North Carolina it has been found, that, ^many > of the eit- * ijes, towns, an'd rural communities ' are being > confronted .with prob lems relating to theij^ water supply, sewerage, zoning, and general de- ' velopment. It has deemed to our directors jthat it was possible for Western North -Carolina, Inc., to offer assistance: along these lines to the several cities, towns, and com mfijfities in the 25 counties of Western' North Carolina. . Our communities and, institu tions are growing, so fast that they are beginning to outstrip their \i conveniences. In many places the water supply h&s become inade- ; quate, sewerage ' problems " are growing serious, and there are housing, traffic, and stiteet . prob lems which have increased by reas- j on of lack of a proper plan for the , expansion of the town. It has -been found that other towns not now favored with these conveniences wish to .consider pro- j viding themselves with water, sew-' erage, lights, etc. Western North Carolina, Inc., " rs ! also very much interested in the 1 preservation of trees along our ' streets and highways and 1 in our I parks, and this office is in a posi tion to BiVc considerable informa tion on this subject.' Some towns seem to have the ; idea that the only way to indicate , growth and to present the appear- ' ance of a city is to cut down all | the trees on the main street?. In some instances very grave mistakes have been made along this line j which will take years to remedy, i* Streets and highways lined with trees, and parks and open spac?s in ou~ cities and to^s Well planted with trees and shrubs are a very valuable asset. It ?cS :>.-.t Wenterr North Carolina, Inc., is in a position to offer material advice and sugges tions regarding the proper way to solve some of these problems. This organization includes in its per sonnel men of wide experience, who ?re capable of giving such ad vice and suggestions, and this ser- ? vice should ho one of the functions of Western North Carolina, Inc. There is a great deal of infor mation available /rom Westorn j North Carolina. Inc., relating to : water powers in the western coun- ' tie?. Several members of the or- 1 ganization are familiar \frith the river surveys and stream flow "stud ies made by the tTnited States and North Carolina Geological Surveys, and this information is at the dis- i po?al of those who desire it. >nv who h-!v.-> water powers to d:?:<o,e "of. r?T wl.o . ish to knew of THE PRAYER CORNER x T^E BIRD OF TIME ! t 7 ?? !' ffl . .
