And when he was come out oi the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an un clean spirit, 3. Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4. Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: 3. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying and cutting himself with stones. - , But when he saw Jesus 'afar oft, he ran and worshipped 'him. 7.

And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel. In the two great miracles recorded in the present passage Jesus in a most spectacular way showed lus pow er. 'the., one a physical wonder and the other 'a spiritual marvel. By calming the troubled sea he showed his power in the realm of nature. By curing thi troubled .soul he showed his power in the -world of spirit.

It was at the close of that great day of teaching with its sermon in ten recorded and many unrecorded parables delivered at Capernaum and thi' lakeside. Late in the afternoon or early night Jesus and the disciples while crossing the sea encountered the Ktorm that was stilled at the word of the Master- That night or the next day the Gadarene demoniac was healed, but the visit did not extend beyond a single day for at the request of the Gadarenes. Jesus and his dis ciples recrossed the sea to Capernaum. STORMS God in the Storm. Nahum-1:3. Elijah' in 'a' Storm. 1 Kings 19:11. Job in a Storm. Job 9:17. Jonah in a Storm. Jonah 1:4-16.

The Haywood County teachers, un der the direction of Superintendent Henry, held their first meeting Sep tember 3, lt32. The group selected a President and Secretary-Treasurer and proceeded directly into the busi ness of the day. One of the first things stressed by the County Super intendent was that Haywood County Teachers have one hundred percent membership in the North Carolina Teachers Association. The excellent woik of the State Association was briefly reviewed and the group agreed unanimously to follow the example of previous years in joining one hundred percent strong. After the Superin tendent had outlined the administra tive policies of the county for the year the general meeting adjourned to the departmental meetings. Leaders had been appointed for the departments of high school, grammar grades and primary grades. Ihe pro gram in the elementary departments was that suggested by the State feup erintendent and outlined in the Hand book for Elementary Schools on Read ing. Papers were prepared on each topic and presented to the Elementary deparraents and each paper was fol lowed by a general discussion on the topic. The high school group bad each member present a question or questions relating to high school prob lems for group discussion. This plan of procedure was followed for the five meetings held. From these meetings the individual teacher receives new ideas arid plans for meeting their immediate problem?, added inspiration and professional growth in research. Too. the social contacts welded the individual schools and teachers into a closer more sym pathetic body, making for better exe cution of county policies. As the Legislative body of the coun ty association, the School Master's Club, composed of principals, and a study of the training, experience, sala ries, liviig expenses, cost of summer schools, and professional growth of teacher- daring the pa-t two years. The results of tins study and an in terpretation of the findings wer0 pre sented to both the Legislator and Senator from this district. Anyone wishing a copy of this study may have it by writing to Supt. A. J. Hutchins. Canton, X. C. Another movement spunsoied and executed by the Club was that of having each civic organization in the district draw up resolutions opposing any move by the State Assembly to curtail in any manner, the efficient operation of the State School System, This movement resulted in forward ing of resolutions and telegrams to the Senator and Representative from this district-emphasizing the need of saving the children of North Carolina from further suffering from the errors of the present generation. The success of the association has been largely due to the wise and efficient leadership of Superintendent Henry. The teachers of Haywood county following his leadership are looking forward and onward to great er professional growth and school efficiency regardless of salary cuts, fewer supplies, a greater teaching load and freedom from compulsory summer school attendance. M. H. Bowles Committee: R. C. Cannon F. L. Safford ask- "Where did the car hit him? ed the coroner. "At the junction of the dorsal and cervical vertabrae," replied the medi cal witness. The burlv foreman rose from his seat. "Man and boy, I've lived in these parts for fifty years," he protested ponderously, "and I have never heard of such a place." 2 Canton Men Were Badly Burned Last Saturday Afternoon Arlie Smathers And Mark Hall Are Burned About Face, Hands And Feet. Two men were painfully burned about the face, hands, and feet as a re-uH of an explosion in a smelter at the Champion Fibre company's phur. Saturday evening at i!:30 o'clock Tb.e injured, who were taken to the Nomura hospital, Asheville, are: Arlie Smathers, chief inspector of the general mill, of the Champion Fi'.r-.' company. Mark Hall, operator on one of the smelters in the soda mill department of the Champion Fibre company. r. F. M. Davis, company physician, said that while the burns are painful they are not considered serious. The men were given first aid treatment by Dr. Davis and they were placed in an ambulance and taken to the Asheville hospital. The burns were caused by steam which burst from the smelter, believ ed to have been caused by water leak ing into the .smelter. Smathers and Hall were the only men near the smelter, which is used for burning nitrate cakes. It was not damaged to any appreciable extent by the explosion- "Wid" Medford Was Famous Bear Hunter LIBRARY NEWS Rosamond Lehman's "Invitation to the Waltz" has just been placed on the library shelves. This book, writ ten about a seventeen year old girl, will be found very delightful reading. Another book which has just been presented to the library, is "Samuel Seabury A Challenge." And a challenge it is to the thinking reader. Walter Chambers, in writing the life of Samuel Seabury, has presented facts which ought to make every American citizen more vitally inter ested in the problem of cleaner poli tics and better government through out this entire country of ours. (Continued from page one) he had close calls with bruin and on one occasion when his hounds were chasing a' bear "Wid" took a short cut in order to get in ahead, where he could shoot the bear when it came. In a few minutes th0 bear appeared. "Wid" shot and wounded it .but the shot was not tatal. As there was now no way of escape on account of the dense forest, and no time to reload, the only chance was to use a butcher knife which he carried with him at all times. The only chance was to meet the boar in open combat. In the struggle "Wid", with quick fore thought, straddled the bear's back and with sure aim with his knife, he stuccded in slaying the bear. On another occasion, while digging ginseng he saw a bruin lying behind a log enjoying the sunshine while asleep. Without any gun, after medi tating a few minutes he decided to try his luck with his knife, he quietly slipped up on the opposite side of the log, administered the blow killing the bear instantly. And many other experiences of similar nature were told by him. When it came to killing rattlesnakes he said he slew enough to build a fence two feet high around Haywood county. In a write up in aA!roensboi paper, the writer who wasut the press meet ing, seemed to doubt the truthfulness of "Wid's" yarns, and referred to him as (he "Boss Liar of the Mountain Section." "Wid" being unlettered was informed of the article and ex pressed himself highly complimented, as he had the distinction of out-lying one editor. On another occasion, a murder trial was transferred to Haywood for trial from IMadison county. The parties were a man and a woman accused of murdering an infant child. "Wid" was called on the jury and after hear ing the evidence which was very strong, but being all circumstantial, was not sufficient to satisfy the jury beyond a reasonable doubt of their guilt, returned a verdict of an acquit tal. After rendering the verdict, "Wid" took occasion to lecture Mead ows, one of the defendants, and warn ed him of the danger of becoming mixed up with a woman of low charac ter telling Meadows if he had a wife to go home and try to be a better man, notifying him that this woman had come within one half inch t breaking his damn neck. "Wid" was a grea; organizer. One of the chief promoters in the bear hunter's organization. On election Jay it was interesting to sc then, coming to the polls fifty to a hundred st song "Wid" with his bear skin coat, and coon skin cap, in the lead giving roder.-. Sometimes on foot and some times mounted on horseback and sometime- carried on the shoulder of two strong men. I'nder "Wid's" command the ote was solid for democracy. "Wid" served one term as county commissioner. During his term he was sent to mak. a settlement with some partie.-. As "Wid" was uneducat ed he could not count, and by figures they could not agree. The parties went to the full board somewhat in digant that a man unlettered had been sent to tnem mat coum not even sign his name was sent on such important business. Another one was sent and it was found that "Wid's" contention v as not Ifar from right. "Wid" re marked that he was "illiterate and without book learning" but he possess ed common sense enough that these college educated men could not pull the wool over his eyes." "Wid" was full of sport. When it came down to business he could act the part of a business man. During the period of reconstruction, he play ed a prominent part in helping throw off the Carpet Bag rule and restore white supremacy in North Carolina. There was not a more loyal citizen in Haywood county, and he was al ways ready and willing to defend the principals of the southern cause.

Consider the illusion that there is a mysterious way to give cigarettes a superior "flavor." explanation: Cigarette flavor can be controlled by adding artificial flavor ings. By blending. And by the quality of tobaccos used. Cheap, raw tobaccos can be "built up" or "fortified" by the lavish use of artificial flavorings. Such magic, however, seldom holds the audience. Your taste finally tells you the truth. The cigarette flavor thatnever stales, never varies, never loses its fresh ap peal, comes from mild, ripe, fragrant, more expensive tobaccos... blended to bring out the full, round flavor of each type of leaf.
