We often wonder if tho hunters think they own us as well as owning our property. Rarely does a huntor pay nay attention to our L..'c?ns, or.seem interested in our wel fare. They shoot anywhere, and in any direction, seemingly without re , rd for life or limb. Some good citizen said in the Brevard school ? hat a man who would kill a harmless bird had no heart. Wonder if it is o? Anyway, some of the hunters r.iust have a stomach as big as their nerve. Say, East Fork, you are mistaken about our misfortune in being locat ed on the highway, thereby being an asy prey for the No-Hell book ?';<ent. If the statements of that a^unt concerning his wonderful in digence as being above all Biblical icholars and supernatural powers, !>s might bring his "no-hellism" across the mountain on wings any old. day.

THANK YOU. James F. Barrett, Editor The Brevard News Brevard, N. C. -T ????,-<-"' My dear Mr. Barrett: A copy of your paper of November "'7 has come to my desk. You cer tainly handled in a very capable manner the story of -,ie meeting: of the first district of t! ? North Caro lina Federation of Bu. ness and Pro fessional Women's Clubs. I want to take thi-; occasion to thank you for the editorial, "Won derful Work of Brevard Women." It is encouraging to find an editor who really appreciates the fine pieces of community work being done by or ganized women and who takes the | trouble to say so in his columns.. Your editorial. " 'Lord, Thou Knowest I never Change'," is one of the most effective pieces of writing ; about the industrial turmoil in this state that I have seen in a good Imany weeks. I like its calm vigor, j Hope you will pardon my picking | your editorial page to pieces. I , usad to work on a small town week ly, and I have never quite frotten over it. In fact, I plan some day when I have had a little more ex perience on the larger papers to go jback to the small town paper. My visit to your town last week was my first, but it gave me such a favorable impression that I hope ifc will not bo the last. With best wishes for The Brevard News, I am. Sincerely, MYRTLE ELLEN LaBARR. State Chairman Publicity. Greensboro, N. C., Dec. I.

Each member should be on hand to express his or her wishes in this im poitant matter. Rev. Mr. Setzer, who has been spending several days with D. H. Orr, of Pisgah Forest, has returned to the home of Wade Lyday, to visit friends here. Mr. Setzer's health is improving. Sam Orr visited his brother, P. M. Orr, last Sunday. Misses Emma and Ada Orr visited their cousin, Mrs. Frank Allen, dur ing the Thanksgiving holidays. Mr. and Mrs. Lee Holden visited Mrs. Holden's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Eubar.ks, last Sunday. Mrs. Eubanks is very ill. Our Sunday School is unusually good, considering the inclement weather and the terrible condition of the roads. We are expecting a splendid attendance next Sunday, and cn interesting hour in the study of Sunday's lesson, which is: "Who Is the Good Samaritan of Today." Our citizens are kept busy these days cutting and hauling wood, and if the sleet and cold rains continue much longer, it will be difficult to even do this much. DOUBLE DISTRESS The maid had been using surrep titiously the bath tub of her em ployer, an elderly bishop. He was a bachelor, very fastidious about his toilet, and desired the exclusive use of his tub. I He reprimanded the maid with much indignation: j "What distresses me most, Mary, 1 is that you have done this behind my back." CLASSIFIED IDS WE SOLD 'EM LAST WEEK and WE'RE RENTING 'EM NOW I What?

Conducted by c S. P .VERNER Ccunty Superintendent ? The Board decided to give two J weeks vacation for the Christmas * holidays, beginning Dec. 20, and ending Jan. 5th. ( In my talks to the schools I am j emphasizing the relation of diet to j health, and especially the need of s green vegetable food. It has been j found that these greens help to ward ] off the flu, as well as to reduce the ( chances of many other troubles. I j have found that there is a lack of c green food in the diet to an extent t that is regrettable. It ought to be e easy for this county to have greens : of some sort all winter. Cabbage ; may be raised in large quantities and kept till spring. Turnip greens , I enough to help the diet may be had ! by covering the beds properly. Some j people even have lettuce in winter. ' Then rape is another source of | greens. | A visit to the big lumber and ex tract plant at Rosman on an official affair made me think how we ought i to bo reasonable in our attitude of I mind toward those corporations ] , which play such a big part in our | economic life. There was the enor- 1 mous stock of lumber there all of j 1 which represents somebody's capital j tied up, but which was produced by . ; labor for which wages were paid. If [ a farmer had to hold his potatoes as ] i long as the mills do their lumber j I sometimes, before it could be sold,, think of the effect on our business I situation. We must let outside cap I italists know that we will recipro j cate their cooperation if they come I to us to help develop the resources . I of the county by a sympathetic and | j just attitude. Mrs. Kate Burr Johnston has come j out endorsing the idea expressed in [ this column last week in a very con- i i crete way ? by proposing a boarding j home for certain cases of unfortun , ate children. It is a pity that this I must wait for legislative action ? ; ' some of the big philanthropists might . I well take hold of this matter right j now, for it is always the children ; who suffer most when business lags. ' The fine work being done in Miss j Strickland's department in the Bre- 1 vard High School is a subject of i favorable comment on all sides. The 1 pupils are learning the use of the; J typewriter accurately and rapidly. I told them that we must hustle to get ; . jobs for them when they get through ? a sentiment to which they gave a , hearty assent. i I The Thanksgiving program at Pisgah Forest developed the fact that Mr. Henderson and his col ? eagues have not forgotten cn old act about the learning prasess- - h?t memory ia stii! an r.iunonf.ely mportsut pari of it. There has b&Six i tendency lately to disregard this ?Id truth, but it is being fovir.d that t cani'Ot be neglected with irepurj ty. The failures in Fres!ima:i lasses in colleges ma;- be attribut able in part to that "soft pedagogy*' rom which wo must get away. The privilege of hearing Dr. Chapman talk to the seventh grade n Prof. Rufty's room was highly en oyed. Dr. Chapman hit the nail iquarely on the head by choosing the ixth commandment for his theme, ind by showing how disregard for ife in maay phases in at the bottom if mosj: or our civic ills these days, .'e ga"e a talk which held the chil lren from start to finish; and it is o be said that what he is was a large dement in the force of what he said.
