seems, to convince Florida that Septembej is

IT ALE DEPENDS ON K'KES' WISDOM
The interest which North Carolina is show
ing in the routing of the Parkway, exceeds that
of any election, either state or national. Tin
em ire state is looking forward to Tuesdav,
September 18 th, when Secretary I ekes will hear
North Carolina and Tennessee present their
claims for the southern portu 11 of the Paikwav.
North Carolina is basing her hopes for the
route on the fact that her sconerv is unsurpass
ed and that Secretary Ickes' better judgment
and wisdom will not ignore such a fact.
('IIE( KIN(; TP ON OURSELVES
When evening comes, go off into a quiet
place and review your clay.
Have you been kind and thoughtful, or
mean and thoughtless?
Hao you kept an even temper, or have
you lost your temper When things have gone
wrong?
Have you been pleasant, or grouchy?
: , Have you 'inspired those whom you have
met, or have you depressed and discouraged
them ?
Have you done, something creative and
worthwhile, or have you wasted the dav with
: petty things?
Have you increased the happiness-moments
in the lives of others, or. have vott thought onlv
of self? '
Have you enlarged your mental horizon,
expanded; your personality have you grown
larger, or shrunk smaller ?

we become. .Hour by hour we build our lives
for. better or for worse. A daily, inventory will
help to keep us on the right; track, headed to-
TAKIXG STOCK OF OL'R "GOODS"
At least once a year merchants and busi
ness men take stock to see just what they have
on hand; what is needed to improve their busi
ness and also to find whether the profit is more
than the loss. If merchants find that stock
taking is worm time and trouble, whv should
not a community take stock of itself ence in a
while to determine just which way its headed?
This thought is brought about because so
many summer people have said time and tim'.
ngain, "weil, within a few weeks things will be
awfully dull here, when all the tourists have
gone."
We disagree with that statement. They
don't know I lav wood County.
We work for the tourists in the summer
and during the other nine months of the year
we work for ourselves, all of which is profitable
to those who WrORK.
Now getting back to our "stock-taking."
This fall we face a brighter future than at
any time, since !!)2t. There are more staple,
permanent establishments here in the county
now that were not here three or four years ago.
Even nature has come forth and not only help
ed us locally, but indirectly from afar.
While the Piedmont is in turmoil with'
.-trikes the west, suffering from continued
drought, this section enjoy., f-h;if working full
time, and the best crops of years.
The establishment of the large number of

would not have come.
The tourists have left more money in the
county this season than at any period since '2!).
The prospect for good prices for buiiev
tobacco is far better than last year. Irish po
tato prices an . tie. aragin- while prices for
eaftle are belter than manv expected to ge;

.... .uim-i,v nas lawen Itie surplus vege
tables this year; while the creamery is consum
ing all the milk and cream that can be deliver
ed in the county.
Public works are not at as low an ebb as
last fall. -The letting of the Soco Cap Road
lontiact wMerd.iv will gne unemployed labor
beie an opportunity to work during the next
nine or ten months. ;
The tax rate has been cut for the coming
car, which tends to add a spirit of optimism
to that which is already prevailing.
The aboe miiw.v is n(t what we hope will
'me to pass, but it it "bi.smess already done."
To the above "stock of goods," we must
.emember that the Paik ".stock" paving -t
late of mteresi while the goods are beimr
"made up."
So, alter all, it looks from our "stock sheet"
that Haywood County has mad,, a profit during
Imxi .ear. and has the "goods" htm
that the world wants and is willing to pay th
price to get.

The i'ojlovving, oath, taken by the young
citizens of Athens, Greece, is more than 2.000
years old, and et it has ideals that it would be
hard to surpass :
"We will neer bung ch.grace to this, our
city, by act of dishonesty or cowardice, nor ever
desert our suffering comrades in the ranks.
"We will fight for the ideals and sacred
things of the city, both singly and together.
"We will revere and obey the city's laws
and do our jbest to incite a like respect and rev
erence in those above us who are prone to annul
them or set them at naught.
"We will strive increasingly to quicken the
public's sense of civic duty.
"Thus, we will transmit this city not only
not less in all these ways, but greater, better,
and more beautiful than it was transmitted to
us." Ex.
CANAL 20 YEARS OLD
Twenty years ago on August is i lie Pana

Whether the canal could be defended
against n first-cla.ss power in time of war is one
of the country's important military problems. :
