GIRL SCOUT $ ENJOY PARTY
(By Helen Galloway, Scribe*
The Girl Scouts had a party last
Friday night at 8 o'clock at Helen
Fullbright's home. The scouts enjoyed
many games including "spinning the
bottle," "Clap in, Clap out" and
others. They danced, sang and did
stunts, told stories, etc.
For refreshments they had cocoa,
marshmallows and cookies and a
pleasant time was. enjoyed by all
present.
The Girl Scouts had a picnic in
the Scout room on account of rain.
They intended to jiike to Cooper's Hill
for the picnic. On account of Captain
Bill Aiken's absence the two patrol
leaders, Jane Yongue and Emma
Lee I.oftis took charge and all had a
fine time.
P. T. A. TO HOLD ANNUAL

The Parent-Teachers Association

LIBRARY TEA TO BE GIVEN
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28
,0n Friday, October 28 the United
Daughters of the Confederacy will
serve tea, with trimmings, at the Li
brary, on the court house square.
The purpose of this tea is to se
cure books for the library, and the
plan is to accept one or more books,
not more than two years old, as ad
mission fee.
The Library has no source of rev
enue with which to purchase new
books except the dues paid in by sub
scribers and this is inadequate to
supply the ever-increasing need.
There are many, no doubt, who
have books purchased within the past
year with which they have finished
and which are as good as new for the
purpose they may serve at the li
brary.
Many of the books now on hand
have been handled so much that they
are completely worn and new or ad
ditional copies are needed. .
When the Daughters of the Con
federacy serve "eats" at the Chapter
House ON THE SQUARE the people
of Brevard and vicinity may know
that there is "something doing."
There will be more about this in
next week's issue. Watch for it.

AFCRARY WARNING
ML CAR OWNERS
Sudden Cold Spoil May Find Mo
torist Unprepared.
?'The wise motorist will see that
he is not caught unprepared by 8
sudden cold snap," said Mr. Car! Me
Crary of MeCrary Tire and Battery
Service. "Pall weather i3 so change
able that even though you start out
on a trip in fine weather, you may
come back through sleet or snow ; and
then is when ycu need Non-Skid on
your tires.
'ijires are so low in price now that
it is impractical to risk life and prop
? '-vinj? to run out the last mile.
Eased on the present selling price,
the last thousand miles in a 4.75-19
the is worth only 43 cents. When you
drive with smooth tires you are
gambling 43 cents against your life
and your family's. You may only need
safe tires for one second of your life,
but if that second comes while you
are traveling 60 miles an hour? 88
feet per second ? safe tires mean life
itself. The extra traction and safe
ty Firestone tires was recently dem
onstrated on the salt beds near Salt
Lake City, when Ab Jenkins drove a
Firestone-equipped Pierce-Arrow car
2710 miles in 24 hours dver a circu
lar 10-mile course ? an average speed
of 112.91 miles per hour ? breaking
all existing world records.
"Fall should be the time for a gen
eral check-up of the car," continued
Mr. MeCrary. "The battery soon will
be called upon to turn over a motor
stiff from cold, and lights will be
burning for longer hours. The genera
tor charging rate should be advanced
and the battery inspected to, make
sure there are no weak cells that
might fail when you need them most.
Spark plugs also need adjusting for
hard wfnter starting, and radiator
hose connections should be inspected
so that you will not waste anti-freeze
solution or alcohol.
"If the motorist checks his tires, ?
battery, brakes, spark plugs and ra
diator hose, he can rest assured that
he will have safe, trouble free winter
driving."
