FISH AND GAME FOR THE PKO
l'LK. ThP people in western states are
intensely interested in the fight be-
ing made in their behalf by Fish and
Game Commissioner Ross of Portland,
Oregon. Mr. Ross is taking the po.
sition that fish and game, including
shell .fi-sh of all kinds, belong to all the
people of the state primarily.
Tht. ordinary citizen does not real
ize how the great salmon industry
and other sources of sea food supply,
such as the clam beds on the beaches,
hays and rivers and the king crn,
crawfish and shrimp, are being de
stroyed by the ruthless march of com.
niercial fisheries.
Dr. Ross has made himself a heroic
figure in the Pacific Northwest in
battling against wholesale destruc
tion by fisheries,, crabberries and

IT SEEMS REASONABLE.
C.
A. Fisher, petroleum geologist,
declares this country s oil reserves
are being rapidly depleted, while con-
sumption is steadily mounting, so that
higher prices for both crude and gas-
cline are inevitable.
Average cost of drilling a well in-
creased from S10.000 in 1913 to $22.-
000 in 1923.
It is exuected tthat our country's
demand for petroleum will reach
800,000,000 barrels this year and the
most optimistic estimates of domes-
tic production for 1925 amount to
only 700,000,000 barrels.
ConsiiderinK growing demand and
approaching depletion oi reserves, it
seems certain that higher prices for
both crude and gasoline must pre.
vail in this country in future over an
extended period, except for temporary
nuxuium3 giuniug
discovery of flush pools.

MORE NORMAL MINING CONDI
TIONS. Conditions in the mining industry
are much improved over a year agj.
In the spring of 1924, the country wis
facing a period of uncertainty, due to
the political situation, which brought
about a depression in trade during
the summer months. Today business
conditions are sound, and there is
i-very reason to believe that the coun
try will have a prosperous year.
Copper companies are curtailing
production .slightly because a fur
plus of some 15,(00.0O() pounds a
month was being produced, causing
such low prices that they could not
operate profitably.
Purchases by Euiope of quantities
of silver for coinage have helpea the
silver situation some, but these pur-
chases bear no relation in quantity
to the supplies held by tnem beiore
love and philosophy, it contains nny
pages, and has trore good thoughts

In thp foreword Miss Jones says:
"This collection of thoughts, poems,
and gleanings has been taken from
novels, books of friendship, letters
and actual life. I wish to give all
due credit to the authors from whose
works these have been taken. Some
of them I do not know."

QUALITY LADIES'
S"ORE.
Daviil M. Simons was born on Sep
tember 9. 1SH4 in Rechtster, N. Y.
He was connected for many years
with Marshall Fields, Chicago's larg
est Department Store. He started
at tin earlv aire and rineived a vast
deal of experience in the mercantile
business.
Ill he moved to Waynesville

l.adiis' Department Stores. In fa-t
it ranks among the lirst in being the
largest exclusive ladies' quality de
partment store.
"The Paris'' has had a nice steady
growth and the success of this is due
largely to the policy adopted by Mr.
Simons from the very first: Marking
everything in plain figures and selling
at strictly one price to all for cash.
Mr. Simons is connected with two
other similar stores and at least once
a month he goes to Knoxville, Tern.,
where he meets and consults with hts
Now York buyer.
About once a year "The J'aris" puts
on a real genuine sale. Everything
Ls matked down and the patrons look
and wait for The Summer Sale of
"The Paris."
Mr. Simons is a member of the
Waynesville Masonic Lodge, has a
great many friends and is known for
his friendly smile and kindly manner.
He is courteous; has the old-fa.shioni d
politeness of manner and is
lways
one of the first to endorse in eveiy
way and by hard cash all movements
for the betterment of his city, county
and country.
"Dave" Simons is a citizen that the
folks of Haywood are proud of and
giaa to can meir irjenu.
of our foremost merchants and if
"The Paris" continues to grow as it
has in the past, the Carolina Moun
taineer predicts that in a very few
years it will rank with the largest
of those in the state.
