THURSDAY, MARCH 7. 19.53 A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY Hay wood farmers are passing up a real opportunity by not taking advantage of the cash market for cream right here in Waynesville. The Western Carolina Creamery is right now bt hi'Ml with orders on b itter because of the lack of sour cream in this county. Althc jgh te Creamery here had paid out on an average of .$2,1)00 a month. It is now in a position to p,4y as high as $20,00'), a. cording to officials of the conceni. This is on" or the foremost chaMerges that w. see . !.c t:h-- farmers ;'re faced wiHi today.

A bnl'etin from il tleigh this week shows that tlieia arc' ?",O0G 'nishels of oertided seed I ' i't"e in this eouTty for sale, while far ners in Ea. tern Carolina are buying similar potatoes from Maine. If w? rncuptaireers bought peanuts, and ki.idred tircducts that are grown in Eastern Carolina elsewhere we would no 'oi:"t Hear from Governor Ehringhaiis being an Easterner, and ? frienl of the "West," could do a 1: to wards bringing the two ends of the state to gether. We know of no man to whom the ex treme sections of the state would listen to more readily than he. Not only is there a surplus of potatoes here but we know of one apple orchard that today has over 6,000 bushels of apples on storage, and if these are not .sold within sixty days they will be of little value. We doubt if there is a bushel of Western Carolina apples in Eastern Carolina -':. today. - . The "Live-at-home" idea was splendid, but we believe it can be carried a little farther along to make it even more profitable. Gover nor Ehringhaus could win a place in qlmo.st every person's heart by starting such a cam-paign. IS RELIEF ESSENTIAL OR A MENACE? During the past two years an almost un heard word has loomed forth and is now on the lips of almost every person that keeps in close touch with public affairs Relief. Today thousands oven millions yes, ex actly ten millions, in these United States are locking for relief to keep them provided with the necessities of life. Some as you know, are having to do on little, while others are receiv ing enough to ger by with. Those on relief maintain they can't do any better, while those on the outside looking in believe that they can. Nevertheless, relief is still going on for how long, no one knows. Critics of the relief set-up believe the coun try would be better off to cut off all relief, while these in close contact with the workings of relief say that to do such a thing would ruin the "o-intry even start an uprising in some instances. Maybe both sides are right ; they are at least debatable questions. It has taken almost two years to work out tne present system of relief, and has cost the American people millions of dollars. If the present system of making everyone do some constructive work for each cent received had been inaugurated two years ago the country would be better off. This, however, is no fault of local administrators. It took state, and na tional administrators two years or longer to realize this. And when the whole thing is boiled down it seems that too much power has been endow ed in the hands of too few people, There's been too much changing of minds to get down to rock bottom early enough. Two years ago everything was taken from the county, and without warning, and in the twinkling of an eye, the burden of caring for these unable to be employed was dumped back on them. As the result the Haywood County Commissioners ru-eived over a hundred cases to c..re for with fuiifis that had been 'provided' for a meie handful. As t whether , r not relief. is e-sential, or a menace to the country at .arge, is left., to vmir -v n judgi-ent, but we do say this, the local J.drninistnit'ors -in.i county officials have car lieu the brunt f the burd-n with the rlorv for what was accomplished going to the high-tr-bp-, while they wo,-e the ones who made the mistake.,.

During his spare . time he delivers news papers but that did hot prevent him from be . ing industrious and intelligent. Now he is reap, ing an excellent reward. Robert A. Lewis was an amateur astrono mer. With his home-made telescope he saw a new star in the sky, which shows that young LeWs had diligently applied him self to study, was intelligent, and alert. He reported his dis covery only to find that it had been noticed nine days earlier by an Englishman but that does not take anything from the credit due Lewis. ; Now, the Director of the McCormick Ob servatory at the University of Virginia an nounces that he has arranged a two-year schol arship for young Lewis at the University of South Carolina after which Dr. S. A. Mitchell says he will bring the boy tp the University of Virginia to study under him. So, from his own efforts young Lewis has already attained a certain recognition. We hope he will take ad vantage of the good fortune, study and apply himself diligently and reap even larger fame. It mast be the snriny weather or at least the thoughts of spring that caused so many good yarns to come forth during the past week. 24 Years Ago! "i I df y Jeer service tar (r 1 1 first of March. A , I . O v- A r--i in I HAYWOOD About the best came via a parson who told about a man who resorted to severe cursing when he failed to get a tire on a rim. Along came a preacher who heard the language, and feeling it wai his duty, he stepped over and touching the man on the shoulder said: "My good man, cursing won't help get that tire fixed. hy don't you pray over the matter?" The angry man could not see that praying would hinder him. n hp went over on the side of the road and prayed. After finishing his prayer he came use to tne tire ana it slipped on the rim a-s easy as could be. The former cursing man was amazed and pleased at the results, whereup the preacher stood there in utter amazement not knowing what to say, but did manage to get out: "Well, I'll be D Have you ever heard, or know ot Deonl. with thp ti ttiw nam.
