That phrase is perhaps dreaded by more children than any other, yet it means more to them than anything else in their young life out. side of the home. We remember how vve lived in dread throughout our summer vacation because of those very words. Little then did we realize what they meant. Jf we could live those days over again how we would cherish the sound of our parent's voice when they said, "Monday, you start to school again." This year, above all others, there is another group that no doubt will tremble at the phrase That group is the teachers. With a curtail ment of teachers and an anticipated increase in enrollment, who can blame the teacher for trembling? They have our sympathies. And we hope that they have the sympathy of most 01 tne parents. The teachers need more than just sympa thy mis year, Ihey need cooperation. If the parents want their children to get the most out of the coming school year it means that they must instill into the children the fact that they imit do their part and not expect the teacher to do it all. With that in mind, we predict the most successful school year inspite of the increased enrollment to be taught by fewer teachers COUNTRY ABOVE SELF There are only a few merchants and biisi oss houses in Waynesville and vicinity that arc not displaying the "Iilue Eagle" the insigna ot the NUA. which shows that thev have signed up and are putting in force the plans of Presi dent Roosevelt to end the depression. The central thought back of the whole idea is to give employment to more people, and con trol the production of farmers and manufacturers,- The response, from : the American: people has been most gratifying. The success of the plan will depend to a large degree on the buying public. Jf they join m and favor the movement, it will g0 ' over Otherwise. Mr. Roosevelt, nor anv of his aids" can devise any plan whereby the present ex " ' isting situation will be bettered. The business men in. signing up. the NRA under various promises as laid down bv th National Blanket Code, have shown their desire to help the country out of the depression They have done their part. Won't vou do vourn' PEDESTRIANS ON HIGHWAYS Last week a young woman died at the local hospital from injuries allegedly received from an automobile striking her while she was walk ing on the highway just east of Canton. The motorist of today is continuously con fronted with meeting people on the highways that are walking on the wrong side or far to wards the center of the highway. Then too, the pedestrian is confronted with wreckles.-, drivers who seem to think that the road is theirs and want to use it as such. The remarks above have no connection with the death of the young lady who died recently. We do not know all the facts in that particular case. An editorial in the Winston.Sal fm Journal along this line gives us some facts for thought, it reads: One of the most serious of all highway problems is that of the pedestrian. This prob lem was given a graphic illustration near Winston-Salem yesterday morning. A man was walking on the highway, apparently on the right side. He heard a truck coming up behind him. Instead of getting off the highway at the right, he jumped over into the other lane of traffic. Just as he jumped a car came around the left side of the truck and hit him. These are the facts as given in the news account of the accident. Pedestrians obviously have a right on the highways, but it is an extremely hazardous right to exercise. It is dangerous to walk on the highway even when the pedestrian is vigi lant. There are reckle walkers. And then there are careless walkers and defiant walkers. What motorist has not had to contend with persons walking on the highway in defiant attitude, "Hit me, if you dare," is their tacit challenge. All future road building plans should pro vide special walks for pedestrians. And, with the walks provided, the pedestrians should be required to use them or forfeit all recourse when injured or killed on the highways. Walks for pedestrians will be an important phase of highway building in the future. It should have been included in construction work already done. Its omission has cost heavily in deaths and injuries. ODD THINGS AND NEW-By Lame Bode 1933 Scientists doing vv mi 111) TROPICAL STUDYING PINO 7 . iV- !

Some believe that the small margin will cause dry forces to work that much harder to get North Carolina to vote dry November 7th. The "closeness" of the Tennessee vote might also tend to pep up the wets of the state, to not take any chances of "just getting by." The Tennessee election will play an important part in North Carolina's election for both sides. bixty-seven counties in Carolina were busy signing cotton re- 11 if. inn c rr r n o -.-.i. l i . y-j omt-v x iiuic I JIISI, WeeK OUt same ipa inrp ar,,i Kr,,,. k,i e il. t?

One hopes that North Carolina will never be 00 poor to avail itself of the services of its best professional men when they are needed and to pay them adequately. One hopes, also, that it will never again be indifferent enough to permit a repetition of the scandalous waste which has characterized the administration of the park fund. . The Governor's remark was occasioned by the presentation of a bill for $26,500 from Judge Frank Carter, of Asheville This as we understand it, was for services in addition to those for which the SKto r.;0 -.000 l , Jeady paid Judge Carter more than $19,000. Judge Carter is an able lawyer and worthy of his hire. His bill probably is more Targely predicated upon the custom of the Commission and its legal servants than upon a proper value of his services. 1 The last and not the first is the reasonable rule for the State. Raleigh News and Observer. Are the people of North Carolina anxious for roads? Only to the extent of about seven times more than there is money for. The new highway commission, of which our townsman. I-rank Miller is a member, has $9,500,000 for l oad work.

If all these petit ions were grant, ed about $75,000,000 would be needed. Joe Coleman has just mailed 5,700 po-t cards from here on which he had printed his price list of gladiolas which are being grown hero by the Kirchoff Ciadiola Farms. Mr. Coleman has two places in the country from where he ships bnlbs one here and one in New York state. No doubt this will mean quite a bit of publicity for Waynesville to say nothing of a new business enterprise. It was about this time last year that men ion was made of having a county fair this year neie. uunng the past few months we have not heard anything more about it. If those who were going to sponsor such an event intend to carry through this year it is high time that something was being done. The naval department announces a $100,. 000,000 new naval program to begin within 60 days. Twenty-one ships will be built. The treasury department announces an increase in internal revenue for the past month. What a break. . , ... Under the heading "More Bad Signs," the Polk County News, of Tryon, makes editorial protest against the erection of roadside adver tising signs in the vicinity of its home town.
