' A few of our leading dtizens seem to believe that the only toot to be used in community building isa hammer. , V" ' ' ' 1 ' ' 1" A FOR NINE^|l TWENTY-FIVE Four things that Polk County doesn't need during the . coming year. Bluff, bluster, bunk and backbiting; x- Potato vines poison tobacco plants, says -a scientist Bat some cigar makers learned how to do it with cabbages long ago. OVER ADVERTISED The only commodity we know of that is over advertis ed is the fourf lusher. - And^he has to do it all without a i good word from anyone else. ' "WONDER \ ?? W*4 <.?>? ' " The Editor of the NEWS often wonders If some of the people here who like to have their paper say scu r r ul o ixa things about othe^, would be willing to have a real hot eommuhicatioh published over their own names. KEEP STREETS CLEAN ^ i A national association of street commissioners held a meeting in Chicago and made a report. ' "The public eould have finer, cleaner streets if people would consider the street ad something besides a communi ty refuse box.'" "The great number of cars parked along the curbing the?e days, makes itnepessaryfor the street cleaner to get on 4* job early m the morning," said one speaker. "Then by eight o'clock the business men drive to work, park their machines along the eurb, open their stores, and 9Weep the "niMmli and dirt out into the street" "r . While we may have no serious problem here in Tryon due to the number of can parked along the curb early in the morning, - we are as careless as people everywhere ' ? . ... . . p-ssa=-=s-^!^ ? n about tftfcetfflg op oorstreets. ' '? Clean streets are usually evidence pf a dean town. They make a community more inviting tooutside shoppers, anymore pleasing to travelers from far places.. r y " /?

Notre Dame defeated Leland Stanford of California in one of the most exciting contests in the history of the gridiron sport. And Laydon, one of the famous "Four Horsemen," was the ? hero of the tournament , ' "? Twice h.e got the ball in his own territory and saced the length of the field for ft touchdown. During; the past week his name has appeared on the sports page of every - newspaper in the United States. To him gomost of the honors of the victory. f But Laydon alone could never have accomplished the^e seemingly super-human feat& The moment he got the ball each time, ten other men on the Notre Dame eleven form ed a running Will of interference. Each i^an, trained to function as a unit in a smooth running ; machine, did his part toward winning the great victory. , . -?'i '>**,? ?* ? " - But the crowds cheered the one sensational ^figure car rying the ball. That is all most of us can see in athletics, in business, in wbrk of any kind. We always cheer the man carrying tha ball. We forgot the conscientious, vaii> able work of others that makes possible the sensational achievement of the Individual.
