NATIONAL EDIT OKI AlV lAST(T Carolina Thursday Afternoon, February 15, I9."1 The Forgotten Peak The popularity of Pisgah National Forest cor tinues to grow, is evidenced by the fact th; t about a half million more people visited the forest last year than the year before. The Nantahala Forest also continued to show a substantial increase, while the nation al forest on the coast showed a decrease in visitors. We have often said it before, that in our op nion, we have taken Pisgah for granted, an i have not given that area the proper rec ognition in our promotion. Take Mount Pisgah. for instance. About 15 to 20 years ago, Pisgah rivaled Mt. Mitchell for local notoriety, and popularity. Then we 1ft our attention turn to the Park, and let Pisgah and The Rat divert back into the pages of ancient history. We would be smart to recognize the peaks on both sides of us those in Pisgah Nation al Forest, as well as those in the Park. Both ar3 important, and the sooner we recognize th.s fact, and gear our promotion accordingly, th? better off we will be. A Determined Comeback 4 Boy Scouts and their leaders are making a determined come-back at the Daniel Boone Oimp, in Pisgah. Two years ago the devastat ing floods washed away a part of the dam to the kke, and did other damage to hamper the carrying on of the water sports program. The Scouts have carried on in the hamper- ed manner for the past two years, and now plans have been completed for staging a drive . throughout the 14-county district for $25,000 with which to rebuild, and renovate the dam aged lake- , The campaign is being inaugurated at the time of the 41st birthday of Scouting, which also marks the annual adult membership drive. Haywood county has a quota of $3,330 fct the drive, in addition to a pro rata share of the $25,000 for the lake. The purpose of Scouting, the ultimate re sults, and necessity of carrying on the pro gram is well known here, as this is fast be coming the center of Scouting in Western North Carolina. The increased investment in the lake at Camp Daniel Boone will go a long ways in furthering this phase of the entire program. Man Of The Year In view of our editorial on Monday regard ing the ability of D. Reeves Noland, we can ' say a loud amen to the action of the Lions Club, and their other civic groups, in naming Mr. Noland the man of the year for 1950. The modesty of Mr. Noland keeps him in the background of the many accomplishments which he has promoted for the community at large. Time and time again he has made trips to Raleigh, and other places in behalf of the community. Very often the results of his trips are not known for months, when a pro ject tomes to light. Such was the case of the State Test Farm. Mr. Noland worked long and hard in getting this project for Haywood. This is just one of many instances. The number of road project which have come to Haywood as the direct promoting and hard work of Mr. Noland would make a long and impressive list Roads and the State Test Farm are not the only things he is interested in, however. He is a farmer, business man, and from that one can easily judge that a man of his ability, he has spent much time and attention in promot ing these things. Mr. Noland is the third man to be named man of the year here the other two were Wayne Corpening and Charles E.

Leaders of both parties joined in making the formal request. We feel the people acted wisely, because such an election would have been expensive, and the services a newly elected state senat or could have rendered this late in the ses sion of the General Assembly would have been limited. It is time for all citizens to realize the im portance of economy in government and this applies to those in charge of spending the tax payer's money. We firmly believe in progress, in spending while essential, but cannot tolerate wanton waste which is becoming more and more ap parent in many instances. Efficient government, operated economical ly is needed more today than ever, and any official who refuses to go along with such a program should be asked to step out of office, and most certainly defeated at the polls next election da v. The Farmers Had The Answer During the discussion of rural roads here Saturday morning, the subject of the two question now before the General Assembly relative to state aid to cities came before the group. One plan is to divert five million dollars from the general highway fund, and the other is to put a one cent per gallon tax on gasoline for aid to cities and towns in maintaining streets used as highways. It was not long before the general senti ment crystalized into favoring the one-cent per gallon tax plan, instead of the diversion of general .road fund. The farmers participat ing in the discussion agreed that the primary roads were of utmost importance to them in marketing, as well as for transportation to and from work at industrial plants. They al so mentioned that with plants becoming more dependant upon truck transportation for Looking BackOverTheYears 15 YEARS. AGO Mi s Surah VWlcli, daughter of Mr. and Mrs J. C.

Voice of the People Do vmi think the President ; should be limited to two terms? Mrs. II. M. Sisk, Canton; "Per si nall 1 don't think any President lar.ht to serve more than one term any time after that is too hiitg, The only time I'd make an exception to that is in case of war. 'I ben the President should stay in o:'.'i(v until the war is over." Mrs. V. L. Wrl-rht. Canton: "Two terms are enough. It might even be bitter to make it just one six-year term. That would give the man Htne to get used to his duties, but not leave him in too long." He had come to the small town on a special job and stopped at the only hotel there. Each morn ing he had left a call for 6:30 so that he could get an early start on his work, consequently by Sat urday night he was pretty well worn out. But his consolation lay in the fact that he could sleep late and luxuriously the following morning. At 6:30 he was awakened out of a sound sleep by the in sistent ringing of his telephone. There was no escape except to an swer it and as he rather gruffly said "Hello"' a solicitous voice from the other end of the line said: "This being Sunday, I just wanted to know what time you wished to be called instead of 6:30." A fuilty conscience is open season for chance remarks. Little Mary was a true exponent of the old saying that "Little pit chers have big ears", and her reac tions sometimes had startling re sults. One afternoon her mother was entertaining her bridge club, and Mary came in to pay her re spects while refreshments were being served. She greeted the la dies in a most charming manner and the guests remarked about her poise and graciousness as she left the room. But through the closed door came Mary's voice in its high treble: "Well, they did set around and cackle just as Daddy said the old hens would do." We sincerely hope that April won't have to detour on account of slick roads. One of the quotations on our calendar is from the pen of Charles F. Kettering and seems a fitting thought for this restless age we are living in; where peace and absence of fear are so sadly need ed. We cannot undo the past nor remedy its shortcomings but we can profit by its mistakes as we travel alogn this roadway of life that has no wide places where we Can turn around and go back. Ever forward must go our footstep?;; ever upward and onward must our eyes be focused, ever mindful that each succeeding day will take us nearer and nearer our final destin ation. Therefore Charles F. Kettering's Glenn Hoyle, Balsam: two is enough." "I believe i hay Grhson, waynesville: "I .think let him stay in as long as he can.

MIRROR OF YOUR MIND By LAWRENCE GOULL Consulting Psychologist angry himself because the child reacts in the only way that hei knows. Teasing is the subtlest form of cruelty to which a child cao be subjected because it inten sifies his already painful sense of helplessness. It is bad enough lor bigger children to tease 1 small ones but if you have to tease someone, "Pick a feller your size." It anyone born "bad"? - Answer: I do not believe so. As we study human nature, we find it contains two drives Or urges which may make an individual dangerous to others. Of these, one sex obviously is not bad since the perpetuation of the hu man race depends upon it. It needs only to be curbed and guided. Whether the aggressive (fighting and destroying) urge is inborn or is a reaction to early frustrations, is still undecided, but it, too, can be directed into socially approved and worthwhile channels.

Answer: Basically yes, because the only wa of understanding what gees on in someone else's mind is by comprint it with your own thoughts and feelings. Even with an animal, we have to as sume that its Dehavior lor ex ample, when attacking or at tacked is basevi upon motives like what ours wtMld be in the same circumstances. At the same time there are aspects of your own mind which you cannot see without a mental mirror that is, someone who can point out their unconscious background to you, Without such self -krowledge ti "judge others by yourself only misleads you.
