NATIONAL DITOFUAI mm AMociAiayT) FRIDAY. JANUARY 28.. 1949 Aggressive Young Men The election of James Kilpatrick as presi dent of the Chamber of Commerce did not fume as any surprise to those who have been associated with him for the past several years. He has served as vice president of the or ganization, and has taken an active part in the civic affairs of the community. He is the representative from here on the Western Carolina Associated Communities, and an officer in the Rotary Club. He has held many places of responsibility since coming to Way nesville. and we predict for the Chamber of Comnierce another year of growth, and con structive work for the community under the leadership of Mr. Kilpatrick. It is gratifying to also know that the of fice of the organization will be under the sup ervision of Stanley Henry, who launches out orj "hi second year as secretary of the group. Botn of the gentlemen are young, aggres sive, yet have enough conservative traits to keep the ship of the Chamber of Commerce on an even keel. ' " A Worthy Project There is seldom a month which passes that some drive for funds is not being made. Citizens sometimes state that these various money-raising campaigns are "Driving" them crazy. Most of the drives merit our whole hearted support and are greatly helping man kind. We are aware of the heavy demands being made on individuals which sometimes seem too great to donate to all of them. Your judgment must decide on how much you can donate and to which drives vou be lieve most worthy. There is one project, not drive, which we wish to mention this week and we believe you'll WANT to give generously to see it materialized. This project is the building j of a new 4-H Camp at Wavnesville. The : camp is to be located at the State Experiment Station and is to serve every county in the western district. Each county is to have its own cabin which will be used by the 4-H members each summer. When the cabin is completed any organization or group from the county who desires may use the cabin lor meetings or camping. Madison County's part in the project is S800.00. If this money can be raised, the cabin can be built and used this summer. On the grounds will be a dining hall, recre ation hall and swimming pooll In past years, the camp has been located at Swannanoa, but the property there has been purchased bv the Government. "The 4-Hers are enthusiastic over the oAiTtlTZ pects of having their own cabin like other i location of Park-to-Park highway, counties and certainly they deserve one 1 Fire Department moves into Let s all join in and help in this worthy proj- qUarterS PP0Site PSt ect.

A visitor stepped into the hotel lobby and asked the clerk how to get to Waynesville. She told him he was in Waynesville now. He then explained that he had been told to go to Waynesville and then continue straight on to Sylva. He was so dog-tired that it seemed a shame he would have to go any further in the fog and rain. Those sitting around wondered if sick ness m even death might have caused tne man to drive for many hours to reach his destination.

Capital Lette By EULA NIXON GREENWOOD VOICE OF THE PEOPLE There's Money In Poultry The poultry industry has grown by leaps and bounds in North Carolina, yet thousands of dollars in eggs and chickens are still ship ped into the state, according to government figures. Interest in poultry here in Haywood is again on the increase, and indications are that several farmers will give the matter serious study during the next few weeks. The fact that there is always a constant market for eggs and chickens, is in itself, proof that under proper management, the pGultryman can always find a profitable mar ket for his products. Poultry, like everything else, demands cartful business management, and thorough thought and study before it is undertaken. Since this area lends itself to the profitable raising of poultry, there is every reason to believe that ere long this important, and profitable field will be opened up here.

Mr Becker says that by the close ol the recent campaign the Young Republican National Federation omprised some 2,400 "active and Young Republican Clubs were assimilated into 47 slate associations. "In addition the powerful mo mentum of this movement carried through into the college and teen age iields, he says.

Everybody around Raleigh is ask ing questions about "that job" Charles Johnson, former State Treasurer, has been expected to take. Last summer and fall the talk was that he was considering three or four positions. The Bank of Charlotte, it fs understood, held a place open for him several months, and then finally took the man who handled his publicity in his bid for governor. For weeks now. news papermen have been awaiting the announcement of "that job," but so far nothing has materialized. As for Cousin Robert Grady, the feeling here is that his days with the Utilities Commission are num bered, definitely. Neither of these members of the Johnson family went to the Scott inauguration ceremonies. They preferred to sit at a little table in the Capital Drug Store here at the corner of Salisbury and Hillsboro streets and listen, in silence, to it over the radio. ily have been other crats faced huge del tober 1.
