HUMAN SIDE OF LIFE
By
FRANCES GILBERT FRAZIER
Mv dear:
Although it has only boon a little
over a year since I was your guest,
it seem' like an eterri'v ... so verv
much has happened since then. We
are living in a different wcm Id and
not quite all of it is good.
But now I am preparing to come
back for another visit and I am so
impatient for the time to pas; so
lhat I can again enjoy your b; mii
ful mountains. You may Lak this
for flattery but it is the triiili . . .
somehow, I always enjoy myself
more in Wayncsviile th in any other
place I spend my vacation. Perhaps
that is due, in some measure, to
the welcome I am always a c orded.
My vacations there are one series
of good times after another an J
1 am sure I would linger there
much longer than the allotted time
if I had my way about it.
Being a woman, I am Riving
much attention to the frocks I am
going to bring along and I believe
you will be interested in a coiinh;
of them that I especially designed
for the lovely days ahead. On",
knowing you, will fill your !: .ut
with rapture. It is a flowing gown,
with long sweeping lines, of M.'f'test
green and all over it is sea'ten-d
the whitest dogwood blossoms you
ever saw.
For evening there is the deejie-t
purple, soft as velvet. ':ov. n i: lnlv
covered with tiny, sparkling stars
and up on the left shoulder K the
most glorious full momi i'l dia
monds. That is my favorite of all
my wardrobe although there are
several afternoon frocks t hat al
most defy description. They are
so filmy and gossamer-like that
they seem more suitable for fairy
land than for this mundane sphere.
And the colors; forest green, rhodo
dendron .lavender, laurel pink and
azalea scarlet, yellow and gold.
I am so in hopes "that I can make
my stay a bit longer this year than
usual but you know the demand
that is made upon my time, and
I have so many different calls to
answer. It does seem as though
,iiv nonularitv grows with the
years.
But. my friend, we will utilize
every minute while I am with von
and we will get all the happiness
possible nut of my all-too-short
visit. Call in all of our mutual
ac quaintances so that we can make
merry every second and have such
happy memories to carry over until
I return next year.
We will watch the sun climb up
from behind those wonderful
mountains of yours and drink in
the softness of the morning air.
the most exhilarating stimulant on
the market. All day long we will
go from one exciting episode to an
other until, at nightfall, we will
see the closing of the book with
deepest regret. But wait! there is
an epilogue and that's when my
deep purple gown plays its most
important role.
Warm, luxurious evening! Birds
v. hi-pcring their faint good nights
to e ach other; fireflies turning on
their glow intermittently as though
luring us to follow in their merry
flight; voices lulled by distance
into a murmur that soothes the
veary throb of day-time activities:
music as soft as though sifted
Little White
Rouse May Be
Roosevelt Shrine
WARM SPRINGS. Gc A possi
bility developed recently that the
Little White House, famed "second
home" of the late President Roose
velt, might be offered to Georgia
for conversion into a national me
morial shrine.
Plans for the memorial shrine
to the late President were dis
cussed here at l meeting of the
business and commercial panel
of the State Agricultural and In
dustrial Development Board
The paniel voted to ak the
State Legislature, in the event the
Little White House is offered lo
Georgia, to:
1. Appropriate $20(1.000 for de
velopment of the site as a public
memorial, and to approve a 2."i-cetit
charge for those visiting the at
traction. 2. Incorporate a public commis
sion to administer the promotion
of the memorial.
The panel also discussed advisa
bility of asking the Federal govern
ment to establish a memorial park
in the vicinity of Warm Springs.
This would require an appropria
tion from Congress.
The paniel. however, voted to
ask the state to provide S.l.OOO
for drawing maps and blue-prints
of the project.
The Little White House now is
the property of th Warm Spring;
Foundation.

It was almost ten years ago, when Farmers Exchange started in a small
way on a program destined to serve farmers in this area with merchandise
and at the same tme provide a ready cash market for the farmer's produce.
Needless to say, the firm has grown, and grown. During the past three
years that the founder, C. D. Ketner, has been in the armed forces, the firm
has steadily grown under the supervision of W. D. Ketner. Due to the
foresight of the management, Haywood produce has become to be recog
nized on all markets as the symbol of quality.
Today, the founder, together with the manager for the past three years,
have entered into a partnership, with plans for carrying on the business (m
a larger scale than ever before. New units for handling produce quicker
and more economically will be installed shortly. Other expansions will be
made as soon as practical.
Yes, Haywood farmers are assured that this firm is working for their
interest, with experiences of the past coupled with greater ambitions for
the future.
