THE BREVARD NEWS Published Every Wednesday bf THE TRANSYLVANIA PUBLISHING CO., Inc. Entevc ! at the Postoffice in Brevard, X. C ., as Second Class Matter Jam?) P. Barrett Editor Miss Alma Trowbridge, Associate Ed. SUBSCRIPTION RATES ' (Payable in Advance) One Year ._ 12.00 Six Months 1,00 Three Months 80 WEDNESDAY, FEB. 12, 1930 NOT A PERSONAL MATTER AT ALL. One of our good friends wanted to know if The Brevard News has a grouch against the chain store sys tem, or why we turned against them all at once. No, we have no grouch against the chain store system. And we have been opposed to them all along, ever since the World War was raging an^l mothers' sons were dying on PI 'nders Field. x'.'o lu've been opposed to their '.;m of getting it all and giving iiC'lhia g in return ever since one day in .he hectic times of 1918, when everybody was giving all they had to cany on the war work, and the chain stores, as usual, gave nothing. Wtr well remember the day when oven the women workers in the Ashcy. !?; laundries signed up one hunuivl per cent as supporters of i.ht Salvation Army, the Red Cross, the War Saving Stamps and Liberty Bonds,. When the same people solic ited the chain stores they were to!d that the matter would have to be re ferred to the distant management, and wlm the answer came b?:k it was to the effect that they had M many stores in so many towns thst it would be impossible to donate in all. so they could do nothing. That was the beginning of our dis like for the chain store system. Then, a careful investigation since that time had proven the chain store system to be nothing but a grab-it all and give-nothing in return. We have watched its growth through catch advertisements until the sys tem is literally gutting towns and closing the door of opportunity to young men and women wbo would be in business and be an integral part of a community life, were it not i for the all-swooping power of the chain store system. We have watched these chain .stores light with hawk-like rapidity upon towns and force men who had helped build these towns out on the street. - You property owners of Brevard, some of you are not pleased with these articles and editorials. The time is coming when you will wish to Cud that you had never seen a chu;n store in Brevard. You are now paying taxes on empty buildings in Brev.nrd. Support the chain stores, and insist in bringing another chain store or two, forcing some more of our home merchants out of business, ojuptying some more store buildings here, and then your tax problems wi!i he an acute one ndeed. f J Next week we are wing to give the aggregate uum in taxes paid by Fred Johnson, Wales Mull, T. M. Mitchell, H. L. Garreti and O. L. Mitchell, Emma Bagwell, O. L. Er win ant! others engaged in the same line, and then compare that with the amount paid by the two chain stores here engaged in the same line of business. No, it is no personal matter with us. W i* want Brevard to grow and prosper. We want a town here that the young men and women now on the farms can come when they shall have finished school, and find a place to do business. We want the people of this community to have the money that is now being sent into one point tit removed. We would like to see the fine men no w engaged as managers of chain stores in Brevard operating their own stores, building their own futures rather than working them selves to death for a cold-blooded chain group that will kick them off like old shoes when their usefulness is ended. DISLIKES THE STATE'S FIGURES ON COUNTY. Mv. E. O. Shipman, one of the J most successful farmers in the coun ty, is not at all pleased with the news article sent out from Raleigh and published in The Brevard News last wtek, setting forth thp alleged fact that this county does "not raise all it consumes. Mr. Shipman says statement is ab3urd that Tran ylvJHv'a county buys more grain i it^sells. <fii do not know just how the ' k state department of agriculture goes about gathering statistics and fig ures on crops and shipments, both into and out of a county. We would like to agree with Brother Shipman, and be convinced that Transylvania is a selling county rather than a buying one. It is the county that sells more than it consumes that prospers, and here's hoping Ur. SKfpman is correct and the state is in error. I ___________ CO-OPERATION SEEN IN EVERY SUCCESSFUL FARMING COMMUNITY. One great fact that was empha sized in each and every community of Florida visited by the county del egation was that concerning co operation among farmers and truck growers. At Bradenton it was found that celery growing was a hap hazard, unsatisfactory business un til the growers organized, and placed men in both field and office for the purpose of directing the planting, the cutting, packing and telling of the crops. In one associa tion more than a million dollars worth of celery was sold last year for the smaller growers who would have been at an utter loss without ihc association and its co-operation. So it is in strawberry sections, the orange section, or wherever growers were working in one com mon crop, there was co-operation. They find that it pays to have then farm agents ? pays from the time of preparing the soil until the crop is sold. The greatest need in Transylvania county today is co-operation and the general direction of a real, hon est-to-goodness farm agent. SOME ONE GUILTY OF NEGLIGENCE. Reports keep coming into The Brevard New3 office to the effect that cows and chickens ro&m at will over the graves in Gillespie ccme tery. Destruction of flowers planted on the graves by loving hands is no uncommon thing, if reports be true. It is hard enough to give up one'i loved ones in death. Arrangements ought to be made by whatever agen cy that is responsible for propel care and protection of the graves 1 that contain the last remains of de parted friends and loved ones. Cows and chickens rambling al 1 will over the graves in a cemetery is a condition that ought to be reme died, end the sooner it is done, ih< better. Whether this "be a duty ol the city officials, or of some individ ual, we do not know. It is clearlj some one's duty. Let's not neglect it any longer. EXTREMELY PATHETIC WAS SCRUGGS DEATH. Death is a heart-breaking exper ience for the survivors in any event That of young Warren Scruggs was unusual in its every * phase. A bright young man, loved by all whe knew him, clean, upright, ambitious, the only child of especially fond parents, Warren Scruggs wp.s com pleting an education for which his parents had worked and saved throughout many a year. It is not for us to know the reason for these hard and bitter ex periences. It is such a time as this that a man's faith is tested and his very soul seems to stand at the cross roads. It is also such a time as this that God's great promises loom large unto him who endureth to the end. We know that all the friend;) of the Scruggs family have remem bered, and will continue to remem ber, this father and mother in their prayers. God gave His only son, and knows, therefore, the bitterness of it all. He has the remedy, the on ly remedy, for such heartaches and deep despair. To His tender mercies we would have our friends go for re lief in this their hour in the Garden of Gethsemane. COMPLAINT AGAINST RENTALS CHARGE0 ON ! SCHOOL AUDITORIUM. I Ladies connected with the Music Lovers club, and representatives of other organizations, are not at all satisled with having to pay a rental 'charge for use of the High School j auditorium. It is recognized by those who are at all familiar with the many vexing problems confront ing the school board that certain rules and regulations must he en forced in order to preserve the school property. On the other hand, citi zens and tax payers who own the school buildings are convinced that it is double taxation when they are taxed for the school buildings and then are forced to pay a fee for the use of the building. The board has adopted a plan whereby a charge of $5 is made for the use of the High School auditor ium. Janitor work and electric lights are necessary for all meetings held in the building, and it wns to V. 1 cover these additional items of ex pense that the school board made the charge. Just what is the right thing to do in the matter is a question that we are not to decide. It does appear, however, that the commun ity which owns a building ought to have the right of use of such build ing for legitimate community activ ities. A school building, as such, is used but little. Five dayB a week, for eight months in the year, is about half time that a building might be | used. Thinking people have long | felt that the amount of money tied up in a school building is doing its best or making its fullest returns I when used but five days a week, eight I months in the year. The organiza tions of the town could spend some profitable time discussing this ques tion, and it might be that a definite plan of action could be adopted whereby the buildings could be made to serve the community more fully than being used as school buildings for only part time. HUNTING TIME IS OVER Editor The Brevard News: Say hunters, it's all over for this season. Be a sport, take up your traps and lay up your gun and help protect the game. As you know, it :.e against the State law to trap iifter the 15th of February. So let us not violate the law and get pros ecuted but protect all fur bearing animals. ?
