THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 192* HELP THESE WOMEN IN THEJR GREAT WORK. Saturday night, in the Tinsley building, the Elementary Parent Teacher association will stage a box supper for the purpose of raising funds to help the Woman's Bureau in beautifying the school grounds of the town. Ladies of the association, and mothers of the children in school, will bring box lunches, to be sold at 50 cents each. The event ; is not confined to the women of the town, but all women who have chil dren in the Brevard schools are ex pected to bring boxes and assist u? this most" worthy cause. The men of the town and county are expected to be there and buy the boxes. If there is any one thing needed more than all other things in this town, it is the great work being undertaken by the women m -beautifying the school grounds. E penally, is this true as concerns the elementary and grammar schools. The grounds about these sc ioo the only place where the children have to play, are in disgraceful con dition. Any old field anywhere m the county would be as well adapt ed for the children's playground as are the grounds about these build ings.' Recently a request was made to the town council to close the short street to traffic that runs in front of these school buildings, but the request was turned down fiat. It was proposed to allow the little children have the benefit of the short street for a place to play out of the mud. The - Woman's Bureau is to be commended for tackling this job, and the Parent-Teacher association is likewise deserving of praise in planning this box supper for the purpose of raising money with which to help the bureau accomplish these things. Every man in the town, and about the town, ought to attend the box supper and buy boxes. Buy enough boxes for Sunday lunch, and save the wife that much work, and at the same time help one of the most worthy causes ever presented to you. NEXT MONDAY IT WILL BE "PRESIDENT HOOVER." Next Monday, March 4, Herbert Hoover, a farm lad from the West, will take oath of office as president of the United States, and President Coolidge, a farm lad from New England will again become plain Calvin Coolidge. Herbert Hoover comes to the pres idency with an equipment that sel dom has been possessed by a newly elected president. He is, perhaps, the best informed man in the world on world conditions and affairs. His work has taken him into all parts of the world,, and his knowledge is first-hand, gained from actual ex perience. This knowledge will, of course, stand him in good stead dur ing the four years that he occupies the greatest office in the world. President Hoover's greatest trou ble is not to come from inter national affairs. Internal differences of opinion will cause him mucli greater concern than will the world problems. He received the solid support, almost, of those people in America who believe in enforcement of the prohibition laws. These will look to his administration for a more stringent enforcement of this law than ever before. His enej*ies at home, insofar as this one matter is concerned, are powerful enemies. The eyes of the nation will be upon him, anil were there no Other ques tions at all, the one matter ef en forcement of the prohibition laws would, it seems, be a task that would cause most men to tremble at its immensity. Business is now awaiting the in Mgoration, the naming of the cab* inet and the reaction of the country to these events and selections, be fore proceeding further with invest ments and business expansion. Here's hoping and praying that, as president of the United States, Herbert HooVer will be able to guide the old ship on a safe course, to the Pert of Prosperity and Happiness for the people of the United States. VfeO^S Tojvuf t|e ,COVET|p JriJE? Heads o f the Various organizations S1 JBrfWurd are remind of the task they shall be asked to perform at the close of this year, when the Kiwanis ciub is to awuti a loving cup to the man of Brevard who, in the opin ion of this jury, renders the most valuable service to "the community during the year. Almost two months of the year are now gone, and it is to impress upon the people of the community the importance of watch ing the activities of the citizens as regards public welfare. The Kiwanis Club hopes this will prove a popular and permanent cus tom here, and be an inspiration to the citzens to labor for the good of the town, and, in turn, be rewarded by the town's recognition and grati tude for so laboring. EAST FORK REPORTER NOT AT ALL TO BLAME. Judging from the letter sent in by our East Fork correspondent this week, some good ladies in that sec tion of the county have uninten tionally done our correspondent an injustice. In the paper two weeks J ago the East Fork letter did nol i quite fill the two columns in which it was run. We placed what printers call a "finish dash" at the end oi the East Fork article, which shows the end of each article published. To fill up the balance of the space Jin the column a two-line "filler," which all newspapers use, was i placed in immediately after the East Fork letter. T,his two lines was something about the extremely shore dresses being worn by the women of the world today. It was not written b> our East Fork correspondent at all, and was below the dash that desig nated the end of the East Fork let ter. We hope the ladies in questior will understand this, for we con sider our East Fork writer one o 1 the very best in the state. She i.' not the kind of woman who woulc say anything to hurt any one's feel ings. The two lines in question hac ' no more application to any one sec jtion than it had to all other section; (of the whole United States. ALL DRESSED UP AND NOWHERE TO GO. Prof. J. B. Jones, superintended of the Brevard schools, deliverec some thought-provoking statement to the Kiwanis Club last Thursday He was talking, of course, about th< schools and the school children, i Once upon a time, Mr. Jones said only the favored few had the privil ege of obtaining a High School edu cation, and these were preparing foJ the ministry, law, medicine, teach ing, or some other profession. Nov all the boys and girls, generallj speaking,, go through High School many of whom care nothing at al about professions, but are interestec in other kinds of work. Some ar< natural born mechanics, others desir< to enter business houses as book keepers, stenographers, secretaries and so on. ? The High School is doing nothing to help these, except the classes ir agriculture and domestic science. There ought to be additional depart ments in our High Schools, in whicl the boys and girls who wish to be gin work immediately may be pre pared for the kind of work they ex pect to follow. Book-keeping, sten ography, mechanics and similar worl ought to be included in our school work here, the educator says. As it is now, when a boy or girl finishes High School, they must go to some other school and take a bus iness course, or serve an appren ticeship in the trade of their choice, before they can J^egin to earn any thing. This is extremely costly to the parents of such children. It could be done so much Snore econom ically here, Prof. Jones says, be^ cause we have the. school rooms, and the only additional chatge would be that of proper equipment and the ex tra teachers for such instruction. . Members of the dob listened with interest to the rextoarks of Prof. Jones, and we make prediction now that .within a few .year's time these suggestions will have borne fruit.

YOU CAN DO IT WITH LESPEDEZA According to reliable reports a man moved away from a farm in Cabarrus county near Concord a few years ago to keep from starving to death. He was unable to make a liv ing for himself and family on the old farm and left it A short while later Paul, Krim inger moved to this same farm, but Paul had a different idea of farming to that of his predecessor. In the fall of 1927 he sowed one acre and during the winter sowed Korean lesj>edeza on this same acre with the oats. Because the land was poor he used about $20.00 worth of fertilizer on (the acre and in the spring harvested about $45.00 worth of oats. This did not take into consideration the value of the oat straw. Last fall Mr. Krimihger -harvested his lespedeza. A number of his neighbors tame to his home to. see the lespedeza threshed, and in -addi tion to the hay this acre produced about $375.00 worth of lispiedeza seed. This was not a miracle but the ap plication of good judgment in farm- 1 ing and lespedeza to mike money and improve the farm. You can do it with lespedeza. ? Mecklenburg. Times. I NOTICE?

It is rumored that a golf course fcr East fork is being considered and the Abn^r Chastfun old place if thought an ideal place for the loca tion of the course. Say fellows, wouldn't that be nice? Then we'd have a dandy sand clay road right through the center of East Fork. I Oh, Connestee, go on! Let us /alone ! We're still able to take care of ourselves like we've ^always done and we are .ahead of you in one thing, too. We've got all our corn gathered and most of it used ? while there's plenty still in tfie field your way. tlien too, we don't think you are a "good sport" or you wouldn't be flouting about the East Fork men being caught for keeping blockade stills. Some of our farmers have plowed a few irounds. Some have cleaned off the creek banks, repaired a few broken) farm tools. We think all are getting ready ft>r some hustling work If Spring should suddenly pop up. To folks who might be inclined to jump at conclusions too quickly, we wish to say the paragraph (in Brevard News of week before last) referring to ladies' skirt s did not originate with us, and we fail to see where anyone could connect it with the East Fork notes ? but if it had been in our notes, we can't see where anyone could get in the air about it. We don't notice or criti cize the wearing apparel of anyone (and here's hoping we never will). We have always thought that folks should wear just what they wanted to (provided they could honestly se cure it). We believe that and prac tice our belief and don't give a penny what Dame Fashion, Dame Gossip or Dam Anything-else says about us.
