Tlie Lions Club outfitted about 175 young sters during the holidays, at a cost of over . $1.1.00 'Die Lions raised the money by operat Hi.l; the Diine Iinard, a special entertainment over the radio, and by making liberal dona "tions themselves. At least we know that 17.) youngsters who would not have had sumo warm clothing can Mhank the Lions for seeing that the unfortun ate ones were not forgotten. The work with needy children is only one of several phases of their civic work. They did a ercat deal fur the blind people through- out the year. In fact, their work with the 'blind is their number one year-round project. The Lions are work in.'.; hard to make this 'r a better place in which to live and they are doim; a i;ood 'job. Woe To Him Who Waits $ ttnferrV-fh remember J - in case you are inclined to be one who "puts - things -off." On Wednesday at mil-niht, the motorist who ventures forth without a 1951 license tat; v. ill find themselves in the clutches of the law. The same cjoes for those without new citv tags. On the other hand, tax collectors are warn- in', that a penalty goes on all unpaid 1950 tdMs on and after closing time Wednesday ; And in another office of the tax office, the tax listers warn of a penalty for those who ' fail to list their property for taxes. Warnings have been issued well in advance (jf the deadline, and under the law, officials will have to be firm in seeing that those who waited pay the lull penalty. From here it appears that Wednesday is I the last day of grace lor the procrastinator without penalty. AH Business 1 The Mountaineer is proud of the men who make up the Highway Patrol in Haywood. We feel we hay,e an excellent group effic ient, all business, and doing a fine job in carrying out their duties. A Big Undertaking The Mountaineer is undertaking a gigantic task, as we launch into a program of publiciz ing each of the 26 communities in Haywood in a series of pages for 26 consecutive weeks. Not only is the job big in that it will re quire countless hours of time, and effort, but it will be expensive. The cost of pictures alone will run into a staggering sum. By now, perhaps you are asking yourself. 1-then why are you doing all this?" A sensible question and here's our an swer. We have a sincere feeling, that the pub lication of these pictorial pages, will give to our 20,000 readers a new insight, a new ap proach, and a broader outlook on Haywood. We believe that after the series is completed, that Haywood citizens will appreciate the county agricultural program more--appreci-ate Haywood more. We further feel that this appreciation will result in a more determined effort to build, and make this already pro gressive county an even better place to live. The satisfaction we will derive from know ing we have done our part will be worth the cost, even as great as we know it will be. .v 11 Do It Every Time By Jimmy Hatlo Monday Afternoon, January 29. j :-js m-xste. IS SO VAM pouts iVOtf T LET ThE HOSTESS SERVE UP A BTE ' Brighter Outlook for Hospital Haywood citizens should feel encouraged over the action taken by the North Carolina Medical Care Commission in increasing the sum for the Hospital addition. The Commission, realizing that costs of building have shot upward, of their own ac ord, added some $172,000 to the project, in order that no more time would be lost in get ting the project under contract. Needless to say. the need for additional space at the Hospital becomes more apparent every day, and the fact that everything now is being done to rush the addition into con struction, is an encouraging fact. We have a feeling that the action of the commission in Raleigh in upping the allot ment for the local project was prompted some what by the overwhelming vote by which the bond election carried. Haywood voted about 13 to 1 favoring the $225,000 in bonds for Hay wood's part in the project. Now that the pro ject is going to cost more than was at first anticipated, it only stands to reason, that Haywood is getting a "bigger bargain" than the citizens even voted- The Hospital is one of our major assets, and we are certain we express the feelings of the people of Haywood when we say the sooner the expansion gets underway, the haappier we'll be.

There are some who have held all along that the Parkway from Soco Gap to Hein tooga would never be built. When the spring suns come, and thaw the ice and snow now covering a large part of the area traversed by the project, workmen will again start in and finish the work. Then before too long, motorists can ride the crest of the mountain from Soco all the way to Heintooga-the very roof of the Smokies.

MIRROR OF YOUR MIND By LAWRENCE GOULD Consulting Psychologist had parents who did not wider, stand them and had little real affection for them. They were usually given credit for less than their actual intelligence or ma turity which quite naturally made it hard for them to "speak up for v themselves". In several cases, they had been so unhappy that they wanted to run away from home. . Can you love another person "mort than life Itself"? Answer: Yes, insofar as you have come to feel that that person la the only or primary source of happiness for you. For it is happi- . ness and not mere existence that we live for and without it or the hopepf j,t life has little meaning for us. On the other hand, it must be raid that to be primarily cie 1 pendent for your happiness on one other person Is in itself a childish W neurotic attitude. The truly mature person recognizes that if happiness from one source Is denied him, he can in time find it elsewhere. ' May parental neglect make a r y child stutter? Answer: Yes, writes Melba Hurd Duncan In the Journal of , Speech and Hearing Disorders. Personality analysis of 62 stutter ers showed definite differences In their life experience from that of non-stutterers. On the whole, the fferen from speech difficulties Are successful people "well-adjusted""? Answer: Obviously they are well-adjusted to the work at which they have succeeded but they have not always made a good adjustment to life as a whole. The Intense ambition which most of ten spurs a person to outstanding success is quite apt to represent an effort to make up for failure In other departments of life. A mag azine recently listed ten "celebri ties" as the ten best-adjusted men in the United Slates, but I suspect such a list, if accurate, would be made up mostly of people whom no one outside of their immediate - circle ever heard ofc , . .. . the eoual of Ktk'iir HimhIii ventriloquist and as a humorist. King is also quite an artist. His beauteous wife, who has some quality in her voice reminis cent of Grace Moore, appears with him on inanv of these appearances. Wilh straight face, Representa tive King has introduced the fol lowing hills: to have State highway patrolmen dressed like Canadian mourned policemen, or in some and would have to go along. With this approach, the Senate Finance Committee has a voice. Prior to 1949 the two committees had al ways voted separately, In the '49 session they voted together, now they have returned t0 the original rule, Another change: right along now the joint Appropriations Commit tees are usually listening each af ternoon and evemne tn Dlens nf such get-up. to give them distine- State institutions, departments, lion; to have loudspeakers inslall ... ui me nuu.se oi uepresentatives amounts recommended fnr th.m so the members and visitors can by the Advisory Budget Commis- uiim-iMunu wnat is transpir. ing; tn have Republicans Kit tin wh the Democrats of the Hous shown each afternoon WHy the Advisory Budget Commission rec Mislead ol beini; ronflnnri tl 4 tin back row; and t0 have a ronsti.ii. tional amendment presented to the ommended cM'ic i" ine enn mat Governors of North Carolina may succeed themselves in office. Kin has thus become the most prominent freshman member of the House of Representatives. But the N. C. House of Representatives is no place for such comedy. TAKING IT EASY Members of the Finance Committees of the House and Senate are having it relatively easy these days. Business of these groups is to search for new revenue to pro vide money for appropriations over and beyond those recommended by the Advisory Budget Commission m the balanced budget presented. As long as the appropriations Com mittees do not appropriate more funds than the present tax sched ules can take care of, the Finance Committees will have little work to do. So right now, the Finance boys are having easy sailing each after noon while (he Appropriation Com mittees must meet to study the fis cal program recommended to them by the Advisory Budget Commission. NEW APPROACH By this time everybody realizes the 1951 Legis lature is "different". Its "differ ence" becomes more apparent in various new approaches every day For instance, the Senate Finance Committee announced a few days ago that it would vote separately from the House Finance Commit tee on matters of controversy even though they would be nieet mg as a joint committee.

PUBLIC ENEMY NO. . Vim.es i :mmm& 'archer fmesi The air was decidedly nippy but the two boys hurrying along to school were well fortified against the icy breezes. There was no dan ger of their ears being frostbitten for each wore coverings that would serve as ample protection. One had a blue woolen cap pulled down to completely envelop his head and left only the netessary parts of his face exposed. The other wore ear muffs that would have given cov erage to the ears of an elephant. What captivated our fancy was the fact that every time one would make a remark to the other (and they kept up a lively conversation) the receiver of the message would have to lift the ponderous weath er protector so as to hear what was being said. Then the "lid" would be' restored only to be lifted again in a second or two. -:- The halos that some people hang over their own heads, look a little crooked to other folks.
