Many Things Can Be Made to Pay 2 Good Profits to the Industrious Man ? ? V With the approach of winter, a strange contraption, just being intro duced in this country, soon will be scooting across snow fields and icy lakes at 10 miles an hdur. From the icy fields of the Scandinavian coun tries, the National Committee on Wood Utilization of the Department of Commerce has brought to Amer ica the 8 o - c a 1 le d "Scandinavian Spark," consisting of a chair mounted on long steel runners, and propelled by the driver standing on one runner and pushing with the other foot. This is just one of more than one tides completely illustrated in the hundred useful home and other ar new booklet, "You Can Make It For Profit, !' now being released from the Government Printing Office. Through representatives of the Department of Commerce, every country in the world was combed for ideas in the prepara tion of the book, according to Axel H. Oxholm, director of the wood utiliza tion body. The Committee points out that ex pensive tools and elaborate machinery are not required to make the objects described in the manual. On the other hand, a few simple tools found in almost every home will be sufficient to construct the articles. Most of these articles, according to the Com mittee, will find a ready market be cause they cater to the needs of the individual homes and do not compete with commodities produced on a mass production scale. "You Can Make It F/.- Profit," in the opinion of Wr. Oxholm, should be helpful to those temporarily unem ployed. At practically all times there j are some men out of work and those who find themselves in this situation, could, with the assistance of the Com mittee's "booklet and .& little intiative i on their part, "establish themselves in; their various communities.

RED'S SERVICE STATION Speaking of home industries in re ' lation to the farm, jthe booklet reads : "About one-third of the Nation's tim berland is in the hands of the farm ers, and the development of home in dustries in the woodworking field, ac cordingly, would provide both an out . let for the products of farm woodlots and profitable occupation for the far mer during slack winter months."

C., or from the district offices of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce : ideated in leading cities. The manual i sells for 10 cents a copy; $4 a hun Idred, or $40 a thousand. | SA YS EHR1NGHAUS WILL GAIN BY RRTJMMIT'S WITHDRAWAL Raleigh, Nov. 23. ? Friends of J. C. B. Ehringhaus say that he will gain through the withdrawal of Brummit from the governorship race. Mr. Brummitt's support is of a high class of citizenship, is recogniz ed, comprising of leading professional and business men in all communities of the state, and particularly the members of the teaching profession, who give him credit for greatly lib eralizing the Hancock school law of 1929 in his interpretation of ques tioned provisions. The school people, it is asserted, will not support Allen J. M&xwell be cause of their belief, whether well founded or not, that he will still fur ther restrict school operations and expenditures. His criticisms of the State institutions relative to tuition costs for out-of-state students and his newspaper controversy with Supt. R. H. Latham, of the Winston-Salem schools, have definitely set the al ready forming school forces against him ? and that this is a force, 23,000 strong which is being aroused and will have to be contended with in coining elections. While it is conceded that Lieuten ant Governor R. T. Fountain will get some of the school support, it seems certain that he has alienated much of it. not necessarily because of his act ion. but because of the fact that he is chairman of the State Board of Equalization, which has placed res trictions on school expenditures, as directed by the General Assembly, ? and which the school people oppose. Because of these conditions and be cause of Mr. Ehringhaus' known enthusiasm for education, his friends say that he will -get the bulk of the support of the school folks, as well as a larger share of the other support that would have gone to Mr. Brumm it. In fact, many leading citizens who were known to have been pledged to Mr. Brummitt have given assurance du ring' the past week of their support of Mr. Ehringhaus. The Ehringhaus platform, planks of which call for special considerat ion to the small farm and home owners who are hardest hit by the present economic conditions, as con trasted to the absentee landlord or landed aristocracy; revaluation of property for taxation purposes; a i sure but sane economy in government | without new departments, -conser | vation of the State's credit, balancing I the budget, opposition to the sales tax and a larger utilization of the State's | natural resources, is one that appeals | to the citizenship of the State as 1 probably no other platform has in I recent years. This platform in des cribed as one that will work during I the depression period, but also is sat isfactory for more prosperous times which the State is expected to exper ience during the next few years.

Take A Train Ride and Visit Your Friends "SAFER THAN STAYING AT HOME" ASK TICKET AGENTS SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM Child's Home life Creates Habits That Are Emphasized In After Life I It is in the home that the first hab its are formed which are so funda mental to health and to character. "Habits of eating, and of food likes and dislikes are formed early," says MIlss Myra DeHaven Woodruff, home demonstration research work?r at State College. "I know of a young woman who was unfortunately sepa rated from her father when shn was ,a young chiW and did not see him again until she was 23 years old. She and her friends had wondered why she had acquired certain peculiar food likes, such as vinegar on snap j beans, gravy on pie, and certain! others. She was astonished to find] that her father had the same likes." j Habits of neatness also begin early, Miss Woodruff says. Some children from a crowded tenement section were given scholarships to an expensive nursery school. None of the children were over four years old at the time but when they went back to their crowded homes, they insist ed on putting away their wraps as a result of their nursery school train ing. The habit of being neat or not being neat usually carries through* ' life. I j Habits of being prompt are import ant. So are those of playing fair, of rcourtesy, of truthfulness, of honesty, | of perseverance, of independence. I All of these habits have their beginn ings in the home long before the child goes to school. Not only arfe these ' habits formed in the home but many fundamental attributes o r i g i n a te within the fam'ily, says Miss Wood ruff. The attitude towards religion is ' pretty well set before school age. Attitudes towards marriage, towards parenthood, towards people are form ed early and unfortunately freqilpnt ly become fixed too soon. The home can make or break char acter, she declares. It requires study and thought to prevent many malad justments which appear later in adult life. Sam ? Why did you tip that girl so much when she gave you your coat? Henry ? Look at the coat she gave me. I CONGRATULATIONS TO Brevard and Transylvania County and a Cordial Welcome to THE TRANSYLVANIA TRUST CO.
