YOUTH AND RECREATION For a number ol years the various church and club leaders of the community have realized that one of Sylva's great est needs was a well-rounded and well directed recreational program for the youth during the summer holidays. In an effort to do something along this line 'the Svlva Lions club has taken the inita ? */ ? tive and about a year ago made a con tract with the town of Sylva to provide playground equipment for the city park playground. This equipment, several thousand dollars worth, has arrived and has been installed, and if anyone has any doubt about its value to the community should happen down on the park these pretty afternoon and evenings. The chil dren literally swarm over the various, rides, swings, etc. This is just the beginning of a broad recreational program now being consid ered. To carry out such a program will require the backing of everyone, both Our School Building Program In an effort to provide a county-wide school improvement program the board of education of Jackson County has made a detailed survey of the needs of all the schools of the county, a report of which has been published in The Herald prior to this time. It was stated at lhat time that a county school bond issue would be necessary IF the program is to be carried out, and that an election would soon be called for that purpose. The board now has prepared notice of, and it is published elsewhere in The Herald luday, calling on the iioard of Commis Muners to provide funds for the school improvement program through the issu ance oi county bonds, paving the way for tlie vote of the people on the matter. Thi*,notice speciiies certain school dis tricts in .which school buildings are to be erected or repaired, i'h'is, however, is just about jone-haif oi the school build nigs oi the county which will either be replaced with new buildings or have ex tensive repairs, additions and other im provements when the entire program gets underway. > The board's hands are tied at present for lack of funds with which to do one thing for any of the schools. The only way that the board can ever start a program of building and improvement in Canada, or any other township is through the bond issue. With the citizens voting for the bond issue then the board can start its program, and with money provided as State aid is made available probably next year, the program can be, carried out to completion with every sec-j tion of Jackson County benefiting. ; T'his county cannot aifford not to give! full support to the bond election and to the county school program. with their time and money, but both will be well worth spending as an investment in the future of our young people.

The Everyday Co unsoiler By REV. HERBERT SPAUGH, D. D. If the purchaser of a new auto-| mobile were nto' better trained to drive it than the average couple, entering marriage, he wouldn't get the automobile home without hav ing a wreck. It is no wonder to the domestic counselor that^-so^ many of our marriages are being wrecked today. Too few of those who marry have had any real in struction in how to operate a do mestic machine, if we may call marriage that. The majority of those who marry simply "fall in love" after keeping company with other for a peri od, get a mar riage license and are married eith er by a minister or some civil of ficer. Then by the method of trial and error, they proceed to try to get this new domestic machine operating on the highway of life. Imagine trying to drive an automobile, an airplane, or any piece of automotive equip ton Fisher; lights, Ed Dillard, Bob by Cope, Ben Franklin, and Jim Beck; ushers, Jackie Shields, Ol lie Mae Estes, Wanda Davis, Betty McCliire; scenery, Randall Gold man, Ben Sumner, Jim Evans, Edith Extine; programs, Betty Anne Queen, Willetta Cope.

Use Herald want ads for result*? ment in such manner. You wouldn't think of it. It would endanger cur lives as well as our pocket books. But we don't take the same reasoning over into marriage. The art of living together, espe cially in the marriage relation, is a rather complicated process. It takes skill to operate' the domestic machine, and care and adjust ment ta keep it functioning smoothly. Every couple about to be mar ried should first of all have a thorough and complete physical examination to see ""?if there are any physical adjustments which need to be made. Then they should have premarriage instruc tion from some minister who ol-^ fers this service, or from a domes tic counselor. Where such'service is not available, a good textbook on marriage and premarriage in | struction should be read aloud and together by the contracting parties prior to marriage. Moreover, the book should be 'reviewed after marriage. This should be done in the same way a new automobile owner studies carefully the in struction book concerning the use and care of his automobile. This domestic machine should be kept in repair, well lubricated and supplied with ample fuel. The oil of appreciation should be used freely. Differences of tastes, opin ions and sense of responsibility should be adjusted promptly and kindly. Love will furnish the power ? physical love, spiritual love and the love of companionship. Above all the marriage must be God-centered if it is to be kept in balance?just as you must keep the wheels of your automobile in balance. Recommended book lists may be had by writing The Everyday Counselor column in care of this newspaper, enclosing a self-ad dressed, stamped envelope, and ten cepts to cover printing and mailing costs.
