Apr 17 24 May 1 8 15 22 OFFER REWARD OF $600 FOR HALL KILLERS (Continued from page one) The crime is one of the most brutal to ever happen in Jackson county, or this area of Western North Carolina. It has attracted the attention of State and Federal of ficers who are assisting Sheriff Middleton, his deputies, city police officers, and State Highway pa trolmen in an effort to solve/the mystery surrounding the murder and to bring the guilty party or parties to quick justice. United States Marshall Charles H. Price of Asheville, who has been in this kind of work for 30 years is spend ing several days here, as well as officers of the State Bureau of In vestigation from Raleigh. Marshall Price stated Wednesday that from his experience in such cases and from the brutal method of murder ing the couple, the motive must have been both robbery and mal-? ice. He and Sheriff Middleton both stated that no effort will be spared until the guilty party or parties are apprehended. Sheriff Middleton stated that he is having splendid cooperation from the various law enforcement agencies, the state, federal office, city and state highway, all have gathered in to help with the case. Numbers of leads are being inves tigated and a break in the case is expected within the next day or two. The crime was skillfully exe?i cuted as little if any clues were left at the scene of the murder. Mr. Hall was a native and life long resident of Jackson county. He operated two taxicabs, one driven by his sister and the other operated by himself. In addition he owned a tourist court, store and filling station, besides other real estate. The Rev.

Hospital Nursery In Need Of Equipment Among the advantages of living in Sylva and Jackson county, as well as surrounding counties, is the fact that we have access to C. J. Harris Community hospital. Founded in 1927 this hospital has contributed to the health and wel fare of scores of patients. We say our hospital is adequate, and it "is to a certain extent. It has a mdst efficient .Superintend ent, Mrs. A. H. Carter, and a staff of registered nurses, together with a number of fine doctors who bring their patients here for treatment and care. But for our National Baby Week issue The Herald is concerned primarily this week with the nursery of the hospital. The nursery, a light, airy room on the firM floor, is equipped with eight white enameled metal bas sinets but very often these are not enough?recently there were 23 infants in the nursery. So we can readily see in this respect the nursery is inadequate. Since all items of clothing and personal care are furnished by the hospital, its supply is continually being depleted and must needs be added to almost daily. Superintendent Carter s t a t e d that donations from any individuals or civic groups given for the up keep of equipment or supplier of the nursery will be greatly appre ciated. Let us show our appreciation for i i!' hospital and its corps of nurses by contributing something to its ..ursery. The Circus At A Glance KING & FRANKLIN BIG THREE RING CIRCUS ?
