When "The Voice of the People'
last week dealt . . . with the Kenmore
property and its subsequent changes
. . . J. Dale Stentz made a very fine
suggestion about the beautiful maple
tree on the lot . . . which adds so
much ... as we all know to Main
Street . . . Mr. Stentz is making a
plea to the builders of the filling sta
tion . . . through this column ... to
manage some how to leave the tree
standing just as it is . . . and pro
vide some protection against traffic
. . . and have a framed copy of Joyce
Kilmer's famous poem on "Trees" . .
large enough type so that all going
by may read . . . placed on the tree . .
Mr. Stentz insists that the public in
general would appreciate such con
sideration and a sense of beauty on
the part of the owners of the fill
ing station . . . that it would be a
drawing card for business . , , maybe
he's right ... it sounds like a good
idea. . .
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to thank the many friends
for their kindness during the illness
and death of our brother and for the
many floral offerings. We also wish
to thank Mrs. Claud Hill, Mr. and
Garrett for kindness.

Last week the following ap
peared on the blackboard of the
class room of W. C. Allen ....
at the Waynesville Township
High School . . "A Gentleman . .a
man that's clean inside and out
side, who neither looks up to the
rich, nor down to the poor; who
can lose without squealing; who
can win without bragging; con
siderate of women, children and
old people; who is too brave to
lie; too generous to cheat; and
too sensible to loaf; who takes
his share of the world's goods and
lets other people have theirs." . .
it came from an advertisement
under a glass top table in . the
First National Bank . , . and so
struck Prof. Allen . . . that he
copied it for his class room ....
Those of us who have been for
tunate enough to have been
taught by Prof. Allen . . under
stand why such a fine descrip
tion of a gentleman would ap
peal to him . . . for he lives and
teaches just such ideals. ...
. , . one felt lost without it ... .
the next day I was reading Al
bert Edward Wiggam's "Marks
of an Educated Man" . . . the
kind of a book one gets some
thing out of at each rereading . .
and recalling the conversation the
following was of special interest
. . . "But education is for the
whole of life and work is not the
whole of life ... It is unfortun
ately true for an enormous num
ber of people that work has to be
nearly all of life . . . But a man
who has achieved the slightest
leisure from sheer struggle for
existence and has no wish to get
anything out of life except work
will never know the nourishing
freedom of true education ....
this is true because life is not
only work, but is also play, and
suffering, beauty and pain, joy
and sorrow, sunshine and rain,
disgrace and glory, darkness,
storm and terror, as well as
sweetness, peace and light." . . .
Speaker
XL? r
Since we are in the midst of the
hunting season . . . hunting stories
are often a part of the conversation
. . . James A. Gwyn, of Wilmington,
Del., on a visit in the county . . . ran
into this one last week at the stock
yards in Clyde . . . one of the county'
well known hunters came by dang
ling seven fat squirrels . . . he was
apparently without any sort of
weapon . . . someone in the crowd
asked ... "Where's your gun?" , . ,
the hunter replied .... "I didn't have
one ... I just used rocks . . ."then
the comment went around the crowd
.. . "Weir you must be good"..'..' . and
the hunter replied . . . "I'm not so
good at that . . . for I had to throw
at one of 'em twice before I killed
him." ...
We were speaking of work , . ,
how people who so often make
a real success of life were loath
to give up . . . the daily grind . . .
and live a life of leisure ... how
the habit of work became a joy
We wish to honor this week Mr. and
Mrs. E, P. Martin, who on Monday
observed their golden wedding day . .
parents of eight children '. . . all suc
cessful ... in the early years . . with
a family of ten to feed and cloth . . .
and educate . , . the life of the Mar
tins offered problems ... which were
met with wisdom, thrift and man
agement . . . that should serve as
shining examples to the younger
generations coming on . . . We have
known Mr. Martin ever since we can
remember . . . our first recollection
being . . . when at a very tender age
we had a nickle, all of which we were
going to spend for candv . . . hovj
patient Mr. Martin was as we held
tightly to the five cents . . . while we
made up our mind which we wanted
most coconut bais or chocolate
drops , . . or some of each . . . how
helpful he Was about suggesting as
to now to get tne most tor your
money ... We have known him down
through the years . . . and have al
ways had for him the highest kind of
respect . . . May the Martins have
many more anniversaries, surrounded
by their happy family of children and
grandchildren. ...

Two freshmen at the University of

Finally a car stopped and picked

The boys introduced themselves and

University in general.
A little man on the back seat asked
them if they were't Carolina students.
"Yes," the boys said. "Are you
from Chapel Hill, sir?"
. "Yes, I am," the little man replied."
"Who are you, sir?" one of the
boys asked. "What's your name?"
"Graham," was the answer.
"Graham? Not Dr. Frank Gra
