Heretofore, only residents of large cities have had the opportunity of hearing some of the better known musical artists, unless one traveled to xh.p large cities. In recent years plans have beet; worked out whereby the artists go to a selected number of small towns and give concerts. This area is fortunate in having enough interested citizens to set up such an organi zation, and get out and work for such a worth while undertaking. This is just another example of what co operation will do, and the love for finer things yes, this is further proof that this is a good place to live.

Haywood has a good crop of quality apples this year, and the growers have started an advertising campaign that will no doubt put local apples in places where they have not been before. The apple crop in Haywood provides an income about the same as an industrial plant employing 120 men averaging $50 per week. Manv of us do not often think of the crop in those terms, but it is a fart and an inmmp jeriean College of Sinuous that has a bright future for even larger de velopment than the present scale. n - .

It proved a little pre-mature, although t-i"in lht' thousands from through ;oui i ne western section to visit the train, and observe the documents it contains.

The closing of the agency, as we explained in our first editorial, is just a general trend of the times, and a policy in keeping with railroads throughout the nation. This action on the part of the Southern Railway should prompt civic leaders of Clyde to seek an industry or industries that would mean the restoration of the depot. In that cent, the action of the railroad would prove to be beneficial to all concerned. to go through the train, since a single day's crowd is limited to 10. 000 persons Among the documents to be dis played on the Freedom Train are Ihe original manuscript draft of the Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson, and Ihe Bill of Rights, first 10 amendments to the Constitution, which were ratified and made a part of the Constitution in 1791.

The most frequent cause ot suicide Is "a deep sense ot guilt, with an unquestionable penchant for seli-punishment," often going to the point of severe menial Ill ness. But many young people make suicide attempts to punish those who have been unkind to them.

WASHINGTON - The nation's lirst military aircraft with engines was a blimp. Designated Signal Corps Airship No. 1. it was ae :ined by the Army a year before it bought an airplane from the Wright brothers. Il v. as in 1901), live years .niter Ihe Wright "Kilty Hawk'' became the Iii . machine to fly. Balloons had been used in war fare more than 100 years earlier, and powered balloons had been fly ing more than SO years. The pro peller from the Army's first blimp has been acquired by the Smithson ian Institution, It was shown for ihe first time, along Willi the engine I hat spun it. al Uolling Airbase on the li. S. Air Korce's first annivers ary as a separate arm of the de fence establishments. The propeller was given to I'aul K. Garber. Smithsonian curator of iviation, by Gould IJietz, an Oma ha. Neb., lumberman who died re "cntly. Dietz bought the engine and oropeller from Airship No. 1 when it was sold as surplus after two vears' service in the Army. About 10 years ago Dietz gave the engine o the Smithsonian but kept "the nopeller. Beautifully made of al trnate layers of spruce and ma togany, the propeller was manufac ured by Spencer "Whiskers" Meath. who operated the Paragon Propeller Co. in Washington signal Corps Airship No mrchased from Toin Curtiss, the first licensed pilot in the United States. Incidentally, the Wright broth ers' plane, which has been in a Hritish Museum since 1928, will soon be enroute to the United States and its permanent home at the Smithsonian Institution. Last February, executors of the estate of the late Orville Wright, who died Jan. 30, announced that in go ing through his files they -had de termined it was Wright's intention to return the Kitty Hawk to the United States and place it in the custody of the National Museum. The craft was flown for the first time by Orville and Wilbur Wright at Kitty Hawk, N. C, Dec. 17, 1903 Orville sent the plane to England in 1928 because of a dispute with Ihe Smithsonian over credit for de signing the first flyable craft. He asked for its return -in 1943. News the plane was to be returned to the United States was received with enthusiasm by Smithsonian offici als. Plans are to hang the Kitty Hawk in the spot now occupied by the plane which Charles A. Lind bergh flew to Paris in 1927. CHANGES NKKDKl) 1 yonder in 1925-35 North people tnought thev had a oiaie rtgncunure Deparlmeni.
