The crime is one of the most
brutal to ever happen in Jackson
county, or this area of Western

attention of State and Federal of
ficers who are assisting Sheriff
Middleton, his deputies, city police
officers, and State Highway pa
j 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 R. Price

kind of work fpr 30 years is spend
ing several days here, as well as
officers of the State Bureau of In
vestigation from Raleigh. Marshall

his experience in such cases and
from the brutal method of murder
ing^the couple, the motive must
i have been both robbery and mal- j
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, j

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
j contributed t?fa\e health and wel
fare of scores of patients;
We say our hospital is adequate,
and it i^ to a certain extent. It
has a most 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 first 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 \Ve
can readily sjcq 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 d;iily.
Superintendent Carter stated
that donations from any individuals
or civic groups given for the up
keep of equipment or supplies of
the nursery will be greatly appre
ciated.
Let us show our appreciation for
rU: hospital and its corps of nurses
by contributing something to its
nursery.
