It is bad enough during the winter, and much worse in the summer. While extra policemen have been added to the force, it is still impossible for traf fic to move without becoming jammed at times, While this paper has no solution to the problem, we do fee that a three-fold purpose could be obtained if a WI'A project were gotten through for the erection of a retaining wall on the alley back of the stores on the left side of Main Street. At present, this alley is narrow, and does not extend far enough to serve all the stores. The alley is also washing away fast, and be fore long will be of no use at all. If a retaining wall and alley were built so as to allow trucks to load and unload at the rear ot stores, much of the Main Street traffic problem would be solved. Ah it is, the trucks usually double park to unload to the stores on the left side of Main Street. We were recently told bv-WPA official, nt this district, that they had cash on hand for worthwhile projects, and we are of the opinion that Mr. Breese would quickly term this a worthwhile project. The three purposes this project would serve are: eliminate much Main Street traffic, save the alley from washing away, and give jocai people employment While building the wall ana alley. FORCED TO CHANGE RULE Readers of The Mountaineer ane requested to read the notice appearing on page one of this issue, and also the formal notice in the mast-head of this column. From this date, a chares of nn ron e word will be charged for obituaries. A similar charge will be made for a card of thanks, and all announcements such as benefit parties or sup pers where an admission charge is made to the public, Th se charges will be cash in advance. Other newspapers are making similar charges, and we have held off as long as possi ble. We did not intend putting a charge on obituaries and benefit announcements, but dur ing the past few months we have had more than we could take care of and when the obit uaries were not published the week received, some of the contributors failed to understand why, even though some of the obituaries were IX months old when brought to the office. We feel that it i.s an imposition to carry benefit notices free of charge, when the public put ionizing these places have to pay. We are trying to be as fair as possible, and j.- reasonable with our charges as the cost of pi Mishing a paper the size and type of The M'.untamier wll permit. And in order to show no partiallity or favors, we will follow the rule in eac.i and every case of .making the same charges to all as set out above.

Neither does he know now to be .-selfish enough to work for his own interest without benefitinsr other The above shows, in brief, why and how mr. uong nas developed the Wavnesvill Hmm try Club Golf Course to the point where it is now acclaimed one of the best in the Southland 13 tne drawing card for hundreds of visitors to this section every year. There are visitors who plan to become per manent citizens of the community, because they first came to play golf and later decided to build and remain here. Mr. Long has done much for his community in providing the type course that he now has. In fact, he has done a lot more for the com munity than the course has done for him in a financial return. Only recently, he launched out into real estate activity in residential sites near the course, and he was successful in disposing of the lots to people whom Ke knew were interest ed in building homes here. His continual boost ing of this section to those with whom he comes in contact on the golf course, has been far reaching in many ways. Mr. Long is one man that this community is indebted to in many ways. BEWARE OF SNAKES Those who claim to know, report that there are a large number of snakes out this summer. In fact, more than have been noticed in many years. Just the reason has not be explained. Every precaution should be taken to guard against snake-bite. In saying this, we readily realize that there are many people who -drink so- called snake bite "pre-caution" from a pint bottle, but that is not the type of precaution to which we make reference. The best precaution is to look closely for snakes at all times, especially in rocky and weedy places. As for taking "precaution" from a pint bottle, we suggest that this be done after your physician has prescribed it. HAYWOOD'S CLEAN COURT HOUSE At least two of the editors that visited here recently wrote editorials about the Hay wood County court house. The latest article appeared in The Smithfield Herald, in which Mrs, T. J. Lassiter, editor wrote: "My experiences with court houses are limited. Our Johnston County court house is the only one I am familiar with. Having been accustomed to a spacious handsome temple of justice, I was not overwhelmed with the splen did new edifice in Haywood county where the North Carolina Press recently held its con vention sessions. "The two court houses cost about the same amount of money approximately a half mil lion dollars. 1 he exterior of the Johnston Coun ty court house is more imposing than that in Haywood County, but the interior of the Hay wood County court room has us beat. "The rows of hardwood benches looked like pews in a church, and spread upon the walls above the judge's seat was a vertiable sermon. There depicted in life size w th goddess Justitia, scales in hand and hlindfnl.i symbolizing impartiality and on either side the tablets on stone with the Mosiac law th TW Commandments, each an admonition that can not but impress those who sit in the cm.rf rm absorbing its atmosphere. "One thing was noticablv absent from th.

Hut then Havwood PnimHr is not a tobacco growing county : and there i one thing certain, we don't have to put on to bacco festivals in Johnston to unre th this staple product. "Another thing that increased mo in tha Haywood County court house was the disnlav nf flags which I took to be an every d,iv sflTair The flag of our nation and a North Carolina flag were on standards near the judge's bench.' ine reason there are no cuspidors in the court room, is because just after the building was dedicated, one thoughtless personmissed a brand new cuspidor while the presiding judge looked on. After the poor man finished paying his fine, and hearing a talk from the judge on cleanliness, those using the court room became aware of the fact that it was much easier and cheaper to come into the courtroom without tobacco than it was to come with a big "chew" or "dip."

TELEVISION PROMISED A couple of weeks ago, there was begun, from the top of the Empire building, in New York City, a million dollar experiment it was a practical test for television. Science has for some years been promising us pictures as well as sound by radio waves. Many difficulties have been encountered. Many problems to overcome. Television is still in an experimental stage, both in sending and re ceiving. It is not ready for DrivatP hr.mpc Ten years from now there is pvpi-v nrrvh. ability that both seeing and hearing by radio will not be much more of a noveltv than fh ordinary radio receiving set is today. Science nas set its hand to the solution of thi? and science is not -often given to failure.
