Hendenon Fails of Re appointment In Monday's Board Session ACTION OF BOARD WAS BIG SURPRISE TO MANY New County Superintendent Is Man With Varied Experiences. Upsetting all calculations of the friends of T. C. Henderson, the county board of education last Mon day elected Prof. S. P. Verner as head of the county schools. Mr. Hen derson has been county superintend ent for the past eighteen years, and j thef schools of the county have made J great changes under his long adminis- ' tration. The new superintendent, Prof. Ver- I ner, has been teaching school at Con- j nesstee for the past seven years, and : is considered ' one of the most highly ' educated men in Western North Car olina. Before coming to Brevard, Prof. Verner was in South America for' many years as representative of the United States, being attached to the consular service. He is a writer of note, and many articles of his have been published in the leading newspa pers and magazines of the. United States. Mr. Henderson is a native Transyl vania/I, and belongs to one of the most highly respeafiad and influen tial families in the county. It is said that Mr. Henderson has an unusually high standing at Raleigh as a county school official, being considered by the state department as one of the foremost men in all the state among county superintendents. It is believed that the change in the* school heads was caused by pres sure brought to bear upon the school board by those citizens of the county who feel that Mr. Henderson is large ly to blame for the increased cost of the schools in Transylvania county. Sfo criticism was made of his adminis- j tration of the school affairs, it being ' :he expressed belief of the board that ie has done wonders in the cause of education in this county. It is known that one member of the board was anxious for the re jlection of Mrtallenderscn, while two members wer? for making a change. ;n order to comply with the wishes, which they said, had been expressed by the citizens and tax payers of the rounty. It is an evident fact that the new Doard will follow the lines of econ >my to the very limit. This was given evidence in the meeting Monday when j-1 members of the board searched the j p lew school law in studying its pro- ! is ,-isior.s, and looking for every place jb ivhere money might be saved in thc ir operation of the schools of the coun-^ y- . js' Mr. Verner was quoted as having said that he would be satisfied to do the work of county superintendent Eor the actual pay allowed by the 'iev state law for a county of such popu ation as that of Transylvania coun ty. it is expected also that the new j superintendent will not have a full :ime office clerk, but have assistance I anly upon meeting days and special j E occasions. jti Iti REVIVAL ENDS IN GREAT GATHERING Concluding service of the two weeks' revival meeting of the Bre vard Methodist Church was held Sun day night with practically every available seat in the church auditor ium and the annex- occupied on this occasion. The Baptist congrgation disbanded for this service, and many from this church and other denom inations attended regularly during the special meetings. Excellent sermons were preached by the pastor, Rev. A. L. Aycock. throughout the twewweek period, and much interest was manifest and a good attendance in evidence at each service. It is felt that great good to the church and community will re sult from this special series of meet ings. Several additions to the church have already been made, and it is expected that a number of others, will unite with the church either by|e profession of faith or by letter at an ;T early date. An impressive baptismal 1 1 service for babies was held at the |] Sunday morning hour of worship. A special feature of the meetings was the splendid response given the pastor in his call at each service for the numheir of chapters in the Bible that had been read and for those who had prayed since last meeting to ge-'fl-jer. The response was considered (gratifying, thereby evidencing the fact that prayer and Bible reading are i not forgotten things of th the past. HOLDS REVIVAL Rev. Wallace Hartsell, pastor of ! the Brevard Baptist Church, is con ; ducting a ten-day revival meeting at ithe Kings Mountain Baptist Church, the series of meetings beginning last 'Sunday.

MANY TOWN FOLKS; Unusually large numbers of peo- J pie are taking advantage of the j "Open House" event at the Brevard Country Club. The club members ' haV'i asked everybody in the county to play gold on the local course dm-- } ing the two weeks from April 15 to | May 1, as pruests of the club. Many people who have never be fore tried to play the great game have ; been seen during the week making i good headway as beginners. The course is in Lxeeflent shape, and the citizens seem to appreciate the op- ! portunity of learning something of ? the game. Some few hesitated in tfying the I (rame because they knew nothing about golf, but upon beir.g informed that all the present players here were beginners less than three years ago, they forgot thei rtimidity and began placing the ball out over the greens. With warmer weather promised for the end of the week, it in believed i hundreds of men and women, boys | ;ind girls of the town and county will j be seen at the club, many of whom j will be playing a fairly goid game by the time the "open house" period! comes to a close at the end of the I month. MUCHlNTERESTTN THE M'INTOSH SALE Much interest is being taken in the "Farewell Sale," now going on at the Mclr.tosh Variety Store. Mr. J. B. S. Mcintosh, owner of the popillar store, is planning to relinquish active man agement of the store, and devote his time to hij desk work, which has grown into an extensive business. Mr. Mcintosh is recognized as one of the outstanding merchants in his line throughout the Southwest, and manu facturers not only in America, but in the Old Country as well, are very fond of the Brevard merchant, and it is said send him many very valuable items which he can sell at prices away under that asked for the same articks in regular arts stores, even of New York City. / For some time Mr. Mcintosh has suffered from an injury to his arm and friends have urged him to i take life more easily. At last he has consented to heed their advice, and is conducting the sale in order to get his affairs in shape to turn over to another for management. People who have attended the sale have been heard to express surprise at being enabled to purchase goods at the prices prevailing at Mcintosh's during this sale. womenIhMall WHO HELPED THEM On behalf of the Woman's Bureau we wish to thank all who helped to make the Children's Bazaar a suc cess either by work or donations.
