Agriculture is an outstanding item within itself, but fortunately the industries here provide a larger market for their products than if they were not here so after all. industries are the backbone of this county. Western Carolina is also fortunate in hav ing the type of industries that work men and women labor and capital that are progressive instead of destructive. .Many industrial sec tions lack pride and the progressive spirit that is necessary this day, but not so in Western Carolina. .If anything, the industrial life in Western Carolina is just a little more progres sive than the average citizen. Their forsight has meant the additions to their plants in crease in employes increase in wages and in crease in consumption of local grown products. After summing up all the advantages that are afforded Western Carolina by the type of industries we have here, we feel that not only should those closelv connected with manufac turing celebrate Labor Day, but the entire sec tion, because our manufacturing plants, from janitor to president, are making this a better section of the state in which we live. ABSORBING Sl'NSHIXE'. . Picnic meals during the summer months have a far greater value than merely constitut ing a resttul change for the family and an en joyable outing. During approximately four months of the summer, most of us have to ab sorb enough- sunshine to last our bodies all through the year, and picnic meals oiler the opportunity of getting out iiko the open and ab sorbing the needed sunshine.. In a different way, but just as important, our bodies need sunshine to grow and maintain health just as the plants do. It is good for the man of the house, then, to eat out of doors if he does indoor work. It is particularly good for the youngsters to get this extra period of sun shine and fresh air. The mother herself after she has practiced a little on the easy ways of preparing picnic meals, will find that the labor saving in cooking and in dish washing is a pleas, ant variety for her and he will get her sun shine and fresh air at the same time. Eat out-of-doors, then, whenever you can. If you cannot go to the woods or park, perhaps you have a grassy backyard that can be a picnic ground. Porch suppers where paper plates and paper napkins can be used can be enjoyed as a substitute for a regular out-door picnic in case a shower comes up. In this way you will be getting fresh air, if no sunshine. Ex. NORTH CAROLINA IS DUE CONSIDER ATION This entire section awaits with the keenest interest something definite about whether or not the Scenic Parkway will come through this section or be built in Tennessee through coun try which the North Carolina mountaineers look on as ideal farming land because of its lack of ruggedness. The $16,000,000 Parkway was intended to traverse the most scenic route between the Shenandoah National Park and The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and it is on this fact that Western North Carolina has stak ed her claim. It is an undisputable question that no where in Eastern America can there be a more scenic route that between Mount Mitchell and the Smokies via Pisgah Mountain and the Balsam Ridge. Although scenic in every respect, it will not demand serious construction, as most of the ranges afford a fairly level top. It is light here on the edge of Haywood County that we know the most of the proposed route, and no where'on the entire line after the: parkway leaciios Mt.. Pisgah would a level lower il' in lef t: have been reached, arid high as iti out r, r diffifnlt v something lel'e are so: fit. inc in T ,1 I' tin have bee!)

'These two facts don't coincide. Suppose that this . state . didn't have the most scenic route, it seems that there Would be some consideration on the part of the Fed eral Government, of the fact that for relief North Carolina has only received. -about one-half as much per capita as Tennessee, and the peo ple ol North Carolina pay in an average per capita Federal tax of $82.12, while Tennessee averages only $6.65. When hearings were made before the Parkway Commission, the North Carolina dele gates acted calmly and did not go to extremes in presenting their claims for the $16,000,000 route, while this cannot be said of others. ECONOMY-MINDED COMMISSIONERS The formal announcement that was made last week of the reduced tax levy for the com ing year was encouraging news to Haywood taxpayers, While increased and new taxes are being created in many places, the reduction of the Haywood tax rate stood out more prominentlv that it would under ordinary conditions. The decrease in the rate by twenty-four cents was due to the fact that the board of commission ers have paid oil some $1.'?4,000 of the county's bonded indebtedness, besides an interest on the indebtedness which amounted to $95,860. 50 a total of $2n0,:60.50. Last year the rate for the debt service was 81 cents, and .this year it is fixed at 57 cents, The board of commissioners not only re duced the bonded indebtedness of the county sulficently enough to reduce the tax rate, but added on the County Agent's office, built two additions to rural schools and added on the health district without increasing the rate. Last year was the first year since 1921 that no bonds have been floated in the county, which if continued will eventually : mean that the rate will be about 75 cents after the present indebtedness has been paid. After the entire matter is boiled down, it looks like there is daylight ahead for Haywood County and that the taxpayers will not always be under the heavy shroud of burdensome tax ation. Much credit is due the board of commis sioners for the result of their labors in bring ing about the situation which should be deeply appreciated by every Haywood citizen. The board has reduced the tax rate and at the same time added on things that have in many case? made this county more progressive than it would have been otherwise. There' more to Mother's crazy-quilt Than careless eyes can see; Nobody else could understand The charm it, holds for me!

It is on. occasions like that that makes you feel., right at death's door and speaking of death's door; 1 heard one last week- although old. it was told most interestingly. A certain man's mother-in-law was rely ill. The doctor in maKing hi report to the family said: "The dear lady is right at death's door," The son-in-law with whom the old lady was living called the doctor to one side and said: ."If she's that near can't you push her through?" Speaking of mother's-in-law, they are the source of many a joke similar to the above some might be what the story tellers' say they are. while thousands of others are far better than their sons-in-law It is under that last group that I oome. Although -she has never told me so, I can't help but think that on one particular occasion she felt that she could have done better by not having such a person in her family. The incident happened one Sunday morning when the entir,, household was in a mad rush -to' go to church. I had finished my morning shave, and in the rush had left my tube of shav ing cream in. the bathroom, not think ing for a minute that anyone would bother it but I wa.- mistaken, for in a few minutes my mother-in-iaw rusnea in to orusn ner teeth and grabbed the shaving .cVeani and started through the formal procedure as if she were using the highest, price dental cream made but the shaving cream I use happens to be noted for the lather it makes, and whether on a shaving brush or on a tooth bi;ush- it really lathers. v - -. .Now ;hi-um:iti-m niu-t be bad it stirp "f a bee Is a pleasa l-'.t ft.
