Always in the Market for Eggs and Poultry of all kinds Nantahala Creamery PHONE 109 Experiences cf Occ'incr As Revenue Officer (Continued from page three) some of us arc prepared to believe that statement if the other half of it is true ; wc never knew any man who lived on Cowee in the nineties who missed anybody he shot at. It would have disgraced the most honorable citizen of Macon county had it been known that he shot at another with his trusty firelock and missed him. And yet, Uncle Ken tucky was shot at a thousand times. Officers Forced to Carry Grub , Another statement found in the interview is worthy of notice. We are told that all officers of the law when riding the roads of Macon county in those awful times had to carry their grub with them as every body sympathized with the law-breakers and would not furnish you a meal for love or money. What are the . facts ? When Mr. Buckner and Jeter Prichard were in the revenue service I was a school boy in the Cowee township where the awful Panther boys lived. Gum Dalton was distilling liquor for the government, and you could buy a gal lon for a dollar and fifty cents. There are now more bootleg joints in one section of Asheville than there were in those days in the seven Western counties of the state. My grandfather, John Franks was a neigh bor of old Zoom Panther, father of the four sons before, mentioned. My grandfather was a sober Christian citizen and would have furnished Uncle Israel a week's ration in aid of law-enforcement. Riley Rickman, a Baptist minister, who reared and educated three sons for the ministry, and furnished our present post master in Franklin ; Uncle Riley, was always for law-enforcement. And I could begin at the mouth of the creek with Jim Bryson and name twenty families on Cowee where Uncle Kentucky could have found both bed and board without money; or price. These men, nor the children they have given to the world are not keen in their appreciation of Mr. Buckner's interview as it relates to Macon county. . o ; MEXICAN BEAN We have on display at The Press office a Mexican bean raised by Geo. Elliott 36 inches in length and weighs 9 pounds. It ,is claimed they are good to eat, but we have never tried it. ' it k li .4 w . JL Near F FRANKLIN, Oct.-25.-SU miles out from Franklin there stands an old dilapidated, house, built of logs more than 80 years ago. Within its walls whose cracks were "dobbed with mud" was born a governor, and a few hun dred yards away was born the moth er of the already famous young doc tors known as "Angel Brothers." They are not as widely known as the Mayo Brothers, but they are far better known than the Mayo Brothers were at their age. Their hospital and their skill are destined to mean as much to Franklin in the way of publicity as the Mayo hospital has meant to Rochester, Minn. ' But back to this old log house. Elias Ammons, formerly governor of Colorado was born here. . It was then owned and occupied by his parents. Later it became the property of Wil liam Berry, who for many years was one of Macon County's good' citizens. Logan Berry, father of William and grandfather of Mrs. T. W. Angel, was one of the early settlers of Western North Carolina. When Mrs. , Angel was born her father used the old house as a sheep-fold. More than 30 years ago this young woman of the mountains gave her hand in marriage to T. W. Angel and to them have been born a large family of children. No man and woman anywhere have ever worked harder or sacrificed more freely for their children than have these two. They have toiled as slaves , toil that the lamp of know ledge might burn for their sons and daughter.. Once it was hope, but hope has ripened into fruition. Henceforth they may live in full realization of their fondest dreams for their chil dren. Asheville Citizens-Times. MORE TATERS Aunt Dock Waldroop of Cartooge chaye called on The Press one day last week in company with Bob Da vis. After looking at the large Irish potato we had on display, Aunt Dock said that she was some tater raiser herself, so she goes back home and sends us a red Spanish sweet potato 13 inches in length that weighs 3 1-2 pounds. She also sent an -Irish potato that was not so large but had a handle to it that resembled a gourd.

SAVING FUEL In cooking see that your sauce pan is adapted to the flame. It it is too small to cover the fire, it wastes fuel, as there will be an aureole of flame about it which will escape and do no good, but N will burn the sides of the pan. See that the bottom of the pan sits firmly pn the stove. . If the bot tom, bulges and tilts the : sauce pan up, there is a waste of heat. . " GRACE : Fortunate . is the child who,, from babyhood has been permitted Jo; run and jump and climb and sweat and strain and develop his muscles. This makes . for grace and ease and free dom from self-consciousness and awk wardness. There is . no reason why a girl should not do these things as freely as a boy.

If you have taken 'out too much of the oil in the process, restore,' it by pouring a few drops of floor oil on it and setting it away in a tin can until it absorbs the oil and it becomes evenly distributed throughout the mop.

'nor semxz TART VII Evolution is not science. Scores of the greatest scientists both living and dead have and do declare that evolution is in no sense science, but a hypothesis an impossible and un provable guess. More than one thousand of the world's greatest scientists are on rec ord as repudiating evolution. Genesis says : "God created . great whales" Evolution says, that's a lie; that the ancestors of whales had four legs and used to live oh land. Genesis says that God "created fevcry living creature." Evolution , says that this is not true, that every living crea ture, bug, beast or insect came up through a process of evolution, man included. Genesis says that "God' created every winged fowl." Evolu tion says that fowls came up from reptiles. Genesis , says that. , "God made man in His-own image." Evo lution says that the first man was half man ' and half Anthropoid Ape. Genesis says that the first man fell by sin ; Evolution says that this is a lie; that the first man never fell but that man, has always been evolv ing upward; Genesis says that God sent a flood and destroyed man from the earth, save Noah and his family; Evolution says that is a lie. Now the 'Savior endorsed Genesis as . the Word of God ; if Evolution is true then He endorsed those lies; hence, Evolution makes the - Savior ,in the minds of those who believe it, merely the illegitimate son of a fallen wo man. ' v. - - - .- Conditions have become so alarm ing that magazines, newspapers, novel ists and educators have set them selves to the tasks of finding put just what the effect of evolution in our schools is. Their findings relate toonly nine colleges and are catalogued viz: Fifteen per cent' of the Sopho more, class, 30 per cent of the Juniors and 45 per cent of the Seniors had given up the Bible and the Savior as Redeemer; that of 5,500 teachers of Science, 07 per cent of the teachers of Physics, 77 per cent of the teachers of History, 80 per cent of the teach ers of Biology, 83 per cent , of the teachers of Sociology, and 86 per cent of the teachers of Psychology have given up the Bible as God's. Word and the Savior as Redeemer. The people are being forced to pay taxes to pay teachers to drill this teaching into their children, from primary to university. It is clearly a flagrantviolation of the spirit of the Constitution of the United States which guarantees religious liberty. To compel us to send , our children to tax-supported schools, to compel us to pay taxes to pay techers to drill into our children, under the plea of science, which is not science, the teaching that means that the Bible is a tissue of lies and that the Savior was not God's real son, but the il legitimate son of, a fallen woman, means crushing religious liberty and trampling on the Constitution of the United States. IF YOU ARE BLUE If ever you come home from work tired and depressed and feel that it is hardly worth while anyhow, try to forget it by doing something to make someone else happy. Make your life worth while by ministering to some one's need. There are many in the world who are old and feeble, many who are young and inexperienced arid in need of guidance and friendships and something constructive to ; do. Lead a Scout troop. That is well worth while. There are ithose who are blind and ignorant and half nour ished and unloved and ill and lonely and neglected. Find them and open your heart to them and busy your fingers with them and depression will evaporate. The blues are a symptom of selfishness. The joyous life is one of contribution to the welfare of oth-' ANNOUNGEMENT! The Lake Emory Stores, Inc.
