LEE ROY WILLIS PINEY GROVE Correspondence ROY COOK NOT A DELINQUENT Camp Beauregard, La., March 26. Editor Mountaineer: I have been informed that my. name was published and turned into the police as one who failed to appear before the local board for examina tion. There is some mistake, for I have been in the service since last May. I went to the first officers' training camp at Fort Oglethorpe, Ga., and received a commission as second lieutenant and have been in the service ever since. I think there is some mistake on the part of the local board. I filled out my questionnaire and later went to the board personal ly to see if it was filled out correct ly. As I am in the service and work ing hard trying to get myself and men in shape to "go over" and do our bit in. this struggle for democracy, I don't like to be rated at my home as a slacker and deserter and I think it an injustice for my name to be pub' lished as such. I am here walking blisters on my feet and almost chok ing with dust, and burning under this hot Louisiana sun. I would be glad if you would print this in your paper and anything else to help me get this matter straight. Yours truly, ROY E. COOK, Second Lieutenant, 0. E., 155th Inf. Camp Beauregard, Alexandria, La. r (After searching the only list of de linquents we published in this paper Lieutenant Cook's name does not ap pear, but speaking to the exemption board about the matter they say there fere two Roy Cooks and that the dc linquent was Roy S.

I guess the boys in the different training camps are thinking of where they spent last Eas ter, one year ago today, and are won dering where we will be one year from today. Among the visitors to Co. A today were Spencer Cummings, of the 119th Infantry, Charles Singleton and Hec tor Rains, of the 120th Infantry; all three are old Co. H boys. Roy Owen, one of the Waynesville boys, was down to visit the writer to- WPrWw?

Wheat looks fine while clover and grass are both doing well. Pastures are in bet ter condition than on the first of May last year and stock are now grazing to the delight of our farmers, for feed was getting scarce. County Agent Ferguson, acconv panied by Mr. Shay, the swine ex pert, paid our community a visit last week and addressed a goodly number in the interest of pork production which seems to be a matter of great importance as well as profit just now. Miss Grace Francis has returned from a three-weeks' visit to relatives at Franklin. G. C. Underwood, who has been en gaged in the mercantile business at Kingsport, Tenn., visited his home here last week and was examined by the exemption board and accepted for service. Rev. Mr. Hunt, of Clyde, filled his appointment at the Methodist church here Sunday1, March 23, and preached an excellent sermon. Pink Sisk is wearing a broad smile. A boy arrived at his home Saturday, March 22. I notice your Clyde correspondent suggested the name of Robert Terrell as a candidate for the legislature and agree with him. Mr. Terrell pos sesses all the traits of character which qualify one to make a model representative. I think it would be well for the party to consider him and if he can be induced to run give him the nomination in June and elect him in November. If ever there was a time in the history of our country when we needed good, sound, moral, sober, intelligent and thinking men to legislate and administer the af fairs of the nation, state and county, surely this is the time.

The Almond debaters, Nettie Jervis and Myra Campbell, debated at Rock Hill against Fay Henry and Tom Set zer, the decision going to Rock Hill. Sara Boyd and Harry Davis repre sented Rock Hill at Bryson and were successful there, their opponents be ing Daisy Franklin and Lila Sisk. Prof. Revelle, H. G. Owen and Mrs. James Boyd went with the Rock Hill debaters to Bryson and the party re turned with nothing but praise for that splendid town and the fine hos pitality shown them while there. So these two winning teams will go to Chapel Hill next week to take part in the final contest for the Aycock Memorial Cup. Miss Geneva Griffith and Mrs. J. D.

He seems to take a great interest in building up the church and getting more to attend. We trust that more of the older folks will com out and take part. I will close by saying I am glad to tee so many more correspondents tak ing an interest in our home paper as many that ar far away now say they enjoy so much reading the letters from home.

At the Republican county conven tion here last Saturday D. I. L. Smathers and Fanning Smathers were re-elected county chairman and sec retary, respectively. Delegates were appointed to the state, senatorial, congressional and judicial conven tions. The convention pledged sup port to the President and the admin istration in the prosecution , of the war, At the Democratic township con' vention here last Saturday William G. Byer was unanimously re-elected township chairman and Cleveland Medford, J. M. Jones, W. W. Haynes and Fred Medford were elected township executive committee. The following seven delegates were ap pointed to the county convention at Waynesville Saturday, April 6: D M. Cagle, J. J. Lee, J. R. Terrell, John H. Medford, J. J. Mackey, Cary By ers and Thurman Haynes. Resolu tions were passed endorsing Presi dent Wilson and the Democratic ad ministration and pledging hearty sup port in the present world war crisis. Mr. H. C. Sinclair's address of one hour and seventeen minutes on "The Fifth Kingdom" last Tuesday night in the Masonic ball was the most el oquent and learned ever delivered be fore the Masonic fraternity here. He discussed the Bible, ancient, medieval and modern history to establish in fact that tb United States will be' come the Fifth Kingdom spoken of in the Bible at the close of the present war. He said that the Bible teaches that France will not be conquered and that England will finally turn against the UniUd States, confeder ate with Germany, and come to the Mississippi valley, where th two countries will fight the American Re public and go down in defeat at which tim our country will becom the Fifth Kingdom and the home of the Jew. He also said that Satan's reign will cease in 1930 and that the earth will abide forever . and Christ will com to the United States and reign in person bringing in th millennium. Prof. L. Q. Haynes.

The judges were Dr. H. N. Wells, of Mur phy, and Rev. R. E. Hunt and Edwin Fincher, of Clyde. Miss Suttles and Mr. Brown are pupils of the Clyde High School. They won a great vic tory and we predict for them a bright future. Misses Hannah Dotson and Hilda McCracken did real well in the debate at Murphy last Friday evening. Rev. L. Q. Haynes will preach on "The Millennium" at the Baptist church Sunday morning, April 14. Dr. T. F. Glenn's sermon last Sun day morning at the M. E. church, south, on "God in History" was quite interesting and instructive. "M. B. S." The women of Haywood county will be very glad to know that the county commissioners have set aside an appropriation for employing a wo man demonstrator in canning and oth er home economics, for a period of six months. This it a decided pro gressive step and we should congrat ulate ourselves upon having county commissioners who realize that at this time it is necessary to put forward every effort possible to conserve as well as produce food. The hearty co-operation of the women of the county is assured in this movement Arthur J. Green, Vinson Smathers. Paul Rhinehart and . Homer Owen were accepted at Asheville for service in the navy.
