OFFICE K AT KOLUM
By the "Office Cat"
I don't know exactly
what to say this week, but
I suppose it ia up to me to
say something, so here
goes
Boy, oh boy, I caught
the biggest mouse the oth
er day, and I had to jump
almost twelve feet t o
catch him (if you be-lieve
that is a lie, I'll tell you
another just like it). If
I do say it myself, it cer
tainly was a long leap for
a cat. But give me a shot
or two of cat-nip, and I'll
bet I can jump even furth- '
er than that. "
I've only heard from
one or two so far in regard
to putting my real picture)
at the head of my Kolum.
I don't know whether you

TOO MANY LAWS
Editor of The News-Record:
Please allow me space to express
myself in regard to the late law pass
ed by our Board of Commissioners
on the use of a hook and line while
fishing in our streams of Buncombe
County.
Our legislators were careful to put
it up to the Board of Commissioners
to enact the law. I do not, blame them,
but I had no fear of our Commission
ers putting it over on us. and rested
content until it was too late.
Il has been truly sabjr jpiany of
our wisest men that we have too
many laws. I think that is the main
reason God changed the Jewish dis
pensation to the Christian religion.
Moses had more laws than the people
could comply with.
Fishing is such an innocent pastime
and so many people enjoy it. So much
so that it grates hard on these Hill
billys," and should not have been
passed. I can not understand why
men should be hoodwinked or brow
beaten into doing a thing that they
know is not just, if they would give it
a second thought.
In the cities they spend thousands
of dollars on buildings, recreation
parks and pools for the people, but in
the country they can not let us enjoy
what nature has abundantly supplied,
The first thing our school boards do
when they build a school building: is
to spend $1,000 or $2,000 for play
grounds instead of using the open
space furnished by nature.
Now if our County Commissioners
had only known what it meant to
these little clod knockers to tret to go
fishing on Saturday, they would never
Jiave spoiled their pleasure. I remem
ber sixty or seventy years ago, when
our parents would tell us that if we
would work hard all week we might
go fishing Saturday. My. how we
would work! Do you not remember
what happened down at Reel Foot
Lake years ago when a syndicate
bought the lake and undertook td de
prive those who had fished there so
long? One good man lost his life for
being caught in 'bad company,
i ) No wander our courts and jail
houses i?e full 01 animal, Wheit'oiir
statutes are so full of such -laws. I
think we would do well to hire a legi
slature to repeal a few laws rather
than enact them.

Imperial Theatre Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday,
April 22nd, 23rd, and

talking pictures is an important one,
for it brings one of the most popular
stars in Hollywood into a form of
entertainment particularly suited to
his talents. It will be remembered
that Dix was popular stock actor be
fore entering the movies and his
screen personality for which he is
well known is greatly enhanced by his
use of clever dialogue.

"Nothing But The Truth," Miss Kane
who is a clever comediene, sings par
ticularly tuneful number called "Do
Something", Incidentally Miss Kane
is a popular Victor Recording artist,
having successfully introduced 'That's
My Weakness Now", and "Get Out

Anything Wrong With That," and
many others everyone is humming

"Nothing But The Truth", tells the
story of a young stock broker who
wagers $10,000 that he can .'tell the
truth for twenty four hours. As can
readily be imagined he has his hands
full, gingerly extricating -himself
from one tight squeeze after another.
But he persists, despite the faet that
he almost loses out on the 'girl he
loves; a fact that gives the picture
excellent entertainment value.

The teaching as exvessed here seems
to be that if we make ourselves over
righteous, or over wise, we only de
stroy the even tenor of our natural
Kfe, and are not 'bettered thereby it
being perhaps as great mistake to be
over righteous as not righteous e
nough. It is possible for those who
are very religious or ardent, to go
beyond the proper limit even in re
ligious things.
Again the wise man said, "Rejoice,
O young man, in thy youth; and let
thy heart cheer thee in the days or
thy youth, and walk in the ways of
thine heart, and in the sight of thine
eyes; but know thou that for all
these things God will bring thee into
judgment. There fore remove sor
row from thy heart, and put away
evil from thy flesh : for childhood and
youth are vanity." EocL 11:9-10. It
seems God would not have us make
sure that we are serving Him from
the very heart's core. This truth is
more clearly shown by the verses that
just follow.
Thev are : "Remember now thv Cre-
! ator in the days of thy youth, while
the evil days come not, nor the years
draw, night., when thou shalt say. I
have no pleasure in them; while the
sun, or the light, or the moon, or the
stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds
return after the rain In the day when
the keepers of the house shall trem
ble, and the strong men shall bow
themselves, and the grinders cease
because they are few, and those that
look out of the windows be darkened,
And the doors shall be shut in the
streets, when the sound of the grind
m.g is low, he shall rise up at

Also when they shall be afraid of

O, young people, do not wait until
you are nearing the end of the days
the end of your years to give
your heart to God, lest when you
come to give your heart to God, and
your life into His service, you find
that your powers, your ambitions,

Iglory of the deeds that might hate

an almost powerless opponent of the
enemy. Youth is the natural time
for the development of the talents,
for then the spirit is buoyant and
brave, ambitions are active, and
habits are easily formed, but when
once formed are not so easily cnang

useful habits be formed early. Those

fessed a hope in Jesus Christ 45 years
ago and i'oined the Free Will Baptist
church at Red Hill where she has
lived a faithful, true, consecrated
christian life until her death. Sister
Ramsey was one of the greatest
Christian characters we have ever
known. 'She was kind to everyone and
loved everybody. She was a great
power and instrument in the hands of
God in leading many people to live
for Christ. She was a great strength
and help to her Sunday School and
church, and to the community in
which she lived, to all people whom
she met. She was widely known and
everyone that ever knew Sister Ram
sey, both saint or sinner, had the ut
most confidence in her life and re
ligion. Her home was a house of pray
er. Her home was known by all of
God's servants as a preachers home.
She prayed 20 years for God to save
her husband and her prayers , were
answered. The Lord saved Bro. Ram
sey about 20 years ago. They have
walked sde by side ever : since for
Jesus. Surviving her are ber dear hus
