" CANTON WOMEN PLAN QUILT DISPLAY Celebration of his 75 years in the ministry, the Rev. Thos. F. Glenn, for many yeatrs pastor of different churches in Haywood county, and who lived in Clyde until he moved to West Asheville four years ago, was hon ored by his many friends in a special service at the West Asheville Metho- ldst church last Sunday afternoon. The 94-year-old minister delivered a brief address discussing the early church and the olJ fashioned camp meetings, ihe meeting was presided over by the Rev. Carlock Hawk, form er pastor of the Canton Methodist church. Dr. Glenn is one of Western North Carolina's best beloved 'citizens, and ministers, and who by a margin of 18 years service is dean of the Western! North Carolina Conference of the Southern Methodist church. STARTED WHEN YOUNG Dr. Glenn entered the min stry in the Holston conference in Virginia in 18o7 is a young man of 19 years. He was made a junior preacher, and his duties consisted of assisting the senior preacher in covering a circuit of 20 lurches in widely scattered points. Even when the weather was fine, it took Dr. Glenn about a month to completely cover the charge, spend ing- only a day or so with each church. In those days, when the pastors visits were few and far between, the preacher would deliver a fairly long sermon for each congregation. This would be followed by a "class meet ing, at which the pastor also was the principal speaker. Visit- to the churches by the pre- V-aine eli?r in the' early uays. Dr Glenn recalls, were even less frequent than those of the preachers. And when the presiding elder L'ame, the populace celebrated a real occasion If the vi?it happened to be on a week day, the entire community dropped labor and business to hold religious services. ACTIVITIES -.of " The Young People's Democratic Club By W. Thos. Reev, Chairman of Publicity Committee.) PEOPLE LESS REVERENT The people back in the nineteenth century wer? much more reverent than those of the Dresent dav are. Dr. Glenn avers. And he is confident that the church has lost a great deal of its influence in the past 75 years. Revi vals than resulted in greater addi tions to the church than today. Preachers many years ago made small sala;ies, hut tnat mattered little They were guests in the homes of their church members moat of the time. They did not worry about mon ey; they spent thiir time saving souls, Dr. uienn says, une minister whom Dr. Glenn knew intimately, started out drawing a salary of eight dollars per week. Charges of the present day are as "mineature golf courses" compared with those of the early days of the church, Dr. Glenn gays, as he. explain ed how 25 pastorates had grown from the old Asheville circuit. Branding liquor as man's worst ?nemy, Dr. Glenn declares whiskey unless checked, will destroy civilia tion. He says the two major politi cal parties, one seeking repeal, and the ther resubmission of the amendment are "on the wrong track." Dr. Glenn says vmn-haticallv that he does not intend lo cast his ballot for either of the two parties. The present situation of the eighteenth amend ment is a matter that must have the serious consideration of the Chiistian people, he says. v L & Since this article has been appear ing I h ..ve received both favorable and uu-avorable criticism. AccoiJirg to nXi.e I. must place more human in terest into it. This may be difficult at times just as ii, is hard for a pro fessor to add intereit to figures in arithmetic, especially hwen the stu dent is not interested in such "work or is absent from class. i was pleased to sei a copy of ihe Vcur.g Democrats' state paper in town last week. . This paper ao doubt will aid some in the coming ."impaign. And we need all the help we can get. That is the reason all young Demo crats are uniting for the party tause. Personally, I cannot understand at this time how Roosevelt can lose in November. However, we have no cause to get over-confident. How many times have we won in the last 12 years? How many people of the United States expected Georeia to lose a football game last Saturday. This ;s no time tor nver-conlidence. We reej all the votis .ve can gt in Kav- wcol county as well ai in the nation. borne people in the county are under the impression that we are 100f,- or ganized, lnis is far from the truth. Clyde, Cantqn, Lake Junaluska, and Waynesville have been organized. Surely you know that there are more important places in our county. Fines Creek, Ivy Hill, White Oak, Pigeon, etc., have votes that count in all county, state, and national elections. I understand from our district chair man, Doyle D. Alley, that all counties in this district have been organized ito what is known as their county organization. This enables him to make a favorable report in Raleieh for his own work, but not for the work of each county chairman. Clay county was organized last week by our Ditsirct Chairman, Doyle u. Aiiey. Here is some human interest for Grover C. Davis To Head County Election Board p - ' Hon. Grover C. Davis well known attorney andjormer "solicitor of this judicial distant? has been appointed chairman of the county board of elec tions to succeed Frank W. Miller who resigned on account of having been appointed United States Commission er for the county, utner memoers of th board are: J. M. Long of Hazel wood, and Geo. L. Hampton of Canton. With these good men in charge of the election in Haywood county it goes without saying that there will be held a fair and impartial election in-so-far as they are concerned. Reg istration books will be open on next Saturday. , Mr. Davis points out, as the regis tration law provides, that any one who has moved since the last regis tration r election, should check up and se that they are properly regis tered. Anv citizen who has lived in the -state for one year and in the ward or precinct for three months, and is otherwise qualified, is entitled to register and vote. Citizens that have not changed their place of resi dence since last election will not be required to register.

Contract Signed The contract for the production of unee in a Blue Moon" was signed with Mr. F. S. Fry, head of the Dra matic Department of the Oak Studios, and those who have learned of the nature of the play are very enthu siastic regarding it, since it promis es to be one of the most appealing aim ueiignwui productions given here in recent years. The tlav i Displays of old and new quilts, cov erlets, rugs, old dishes, fancy work and antiques will be shown at the an nual quilt and antique show to be held here Friday by the Woman's mat; of the late Col. Vireil S. Lusk. VIEWS ON PROHIBITION "The prohibition battle is not new : we have been lighting it since Noah Lecame drunk on the grapes from his vineyard, the agea ministar asserts. It was durmir the Western North Carolina conference last November that Dr. Glenn said in an interview ;hat "modem youth is as good as )uth ever was." His view on this : abject has not changed, he avers. Ihe behavior of you ;h, the dean of preachers bel:cvcs, depends upon the rearing it receives at home. "Show me the parents and I .will tell you what kind of a child they have. But," he adds, with a twinkle in his eye, in any age or any community, boys will be Doys. The veterrm minister is a graduate of the famous Sand Hill academy, or.ee located in a brick building in the Candler section. He was a class Missionary Soicety of the Southern Methodist church.

Candler, of Candler. WRITES FOR PAPERS Besides his work in the ministry, Dr. Glenn has become widely known for his writing on religious and moral topics. He has written for every organ of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, for newspapers and reculr.r papers, and for organs in New York and Chicago. Dr. Glenn has served as editor-in-chief and contrib uting editor of the Holstno confer ence organ Hi expresses it: "I have used a lot of printer s ink in my time. He does his writing on the type writer. Now, he spends much of his time reading Greek. Hebrew and Lat in, and typewriting his articles for the press. He pays little attention to his advancing age, and remarks that "ag is just a mental condition." Dr. Glenn gets around remarkably well and his mind is exceptionally aierx. ne is smau m stature and his hair and beard are snowy white. For 45 years, Dr. Glenn served in the pulpit. He was presiding elder during one term of that period. For a good many years he has been a superannuate. Dr. Glenn was active in church work here and served as teacher of the Glenn Bible class, named for him, at the West Asheville Methodist church until four years ago, when he suffered a broken leg. Hit leg has healed, but he has not resumed Ms teaching. Dr. Glenn has resided on westwood place for the past nir.e rears. I think three prospective office hold or of the Democratic party were present at the Young People's meet ing in the court house last Thursday. This meeting was well avertised by Bill Harris, Frank Ferguson, Joe Joiner, and others. Five hundred hand bills were used. Signs were placed on the windows. Calls were made to several homes, etc. Too, about the s .me number of teachers were there !f the scarcity of the youne teach ers had not been noticed. I would iust figure that the politicians could not re.-vd. Still so many of them were told. IZaybe they didn't hear. If I'm not iv - taken many of the young people voted in the last county election They may vote in another. Or maybe all the Democrats were there that could possibly be away from home that night. Give us more and better schools that can educate the young Demo crats so that we can understand the organization of the club. If we had all been in the army I could make it plainer. F, E. Alley, Jr. is head of the county organization, Virginia Welch is second in command, Frank Ferguson, Jr. is third. Chester Cos- burn is fourth, and then I suppose the precinct chairmen are directly re sponsible to these officers for their organization. Of course each county chairman in this district is responsi ble for his organization to Doyle D. Alley, District Chairman, who in turn is under Dewey Dorsett, State Chairman. If this is not plain, men tion it at all of the other meetings in the court house so that we can have some place to talk until eleven o'clock. The Canton young women have fomed a special club apart from the precinct organization. Congratula tions, Canton. Furthermore they have had Mrs. McKee of Sylva to deliver a talk to their organization. Waynesville and Junalusk.i organ ized a club last Thursday. Bill Harris, one of the county's best poll workers, wa3 elected chairman. Mrs. Walter Crawford, Miss Virginia Welch, and Mrs., Crawford McCracken were the other officers elected. A. Hall Johnson, state elector at large, of Asheville delivered an ad dress at this meeting. I understand that F. E. Alley, Sr. said that Mr. Johnson's speech was one of the great est he had ever heard At the same meeting Hayes Alley and his band composed of VaJe Rec tor, Gleason and Ray Belt and Boney Franklin furnished string music. Dexter Bryant and his colored quar tet composed of Walter Payne, James Gibbs, and Charles Moore delighted the crowd with several spirituals. I mention this musical talent so that the Young Democrats will know where to go when they want good music.
