Canning For Winter Charity ' Asheville Citizen > Almost everywhere this vest the [fruit crop appears to have been an unusually bountiful one There has been not only the greatest abund ance of fruit but the quality has been exceptionally fine In an.v cir cumstances the urge to .-.avr as much as possible of such a crop should have been great With con ditions what they are at the present time it is not to be wondered at that efforts are being made in many places to encourage the canning and preserving and drying of tne fruit which otherwise will go to waste. Some one sends us a clipping from a Canadian newspaper telling of a { movement of this kind in Canada; and there have been numerous ad vertisements and news stories in newspapers published m territory where fruits of various kinds are plentiful about orchardlsts who have invited those who were witboui money to buy fruit to come to their orchards and secure all that they could use. Even at a considerable distance from such orchards fruit is very cheap. The most delicious peaches have been available at prices! that are ridiculously low. Burely there ts the opportunity in this situation for welfare agencies, by lending the proper cooperation, to enable many families to provide themselves with canned fruits against the coming winter Not a few of these families already know how to do their canning and preserv ing if they were furnished with the supplies that would be required, the necessary sugar, also very cheap, j and the cans or jars. A setup simi lar to that which did such valuable work with the woodyard in Ashe- j ville last winter might be able to accomplish equally valuable work in 1 this matter We pass along the suggestion in i the hope that it can be turned to! profitable account Calls On South To Develop Self Qov O Max Gardner, in a state ment issued by the Southeastern Economic Council, called upon the Southeastern states to "develop their possibilities” for the benefit of the entire section.'' "Modern means of communication and transportation have under mined the very basts of social, no litical and economic isolation.” the governor said. ' Just as America is finding her self irresistibly drawn into the main currents of world thought and poli tics by business so do the states and sections of the United States find that ancient barriers have disap peared and then own economic cell preservation depends upon the general business, health and pros perity of the whole country. North Carolina manufacturing textiles, furniture atid tobacco to supply not only a country-wide but a world-wide market. The same is true of these and other lines of commodities of every state. If the farmers of Georgia. Alabama, Flori da. or any other American state are not prosperous, it is the immediate and vital concern to Virginia, North Carolina and »he rest of the coun try . ’ The Southeastern states are sub ject not only to the laws and forces which underly and control the busi ness and industry of a modern world but are peculiarly bound together by reason of'the board unity which prevades the various states and gives direction to their own fundamental material interests •Through united approach These states can develop their possibilities to the highest extent and do the entire section much benefit: Ehringhaus Speaks In Clear Manner -._ Prankneai Of Announcement h Commendable. Support Garrf- i nor Program, ■ Asheville Citizens tVhether nr not, one agrees with the views set forth by Mr. .1. C. B Bhrlnghaus in his announcement of his candidacy for the governorship the frankness with which he has stated his position on the contro versial question now before the peo ple of North Carolina commands respect and admiration. l ater he promises to give the public a fu'l and detailed exposition of his atti tude toward the responsibilities of the office which he seeks. He has not waited for that, however, to fet it be known that it is his purpose to champion ‘ “the record of the Democratic party In this Stale, both legislatively and executively,'1 which can only be interpreted as meaning that he Intends to stand by the policies adopted by the last legts j lature and by the program which | Governor Gardner forstefed. Qn 'the sales tax question Mr. Eh ring haus' declares himself opposed to th” imposition "of either the general or so-called luxury tax. ' indicating his intention to argue that either of! the^e taxes would be paid in good part by those who are least able to bear the burden that this would involve. Mr. Ehnnghaus has won the repu tation of being oqp of the best speakers in North Carolina and Tom Bost, Raleigh correspondent of the Greensboro News says that he is a lawyer of great ability ” Mr Bost gives it as his opinion that "nobody east of Raleigh, or west, for that matter, has anything on him. He is a man of rare personal charm.” Mr. Bost thinks that Eh ringhaus and Attorney General Brummttt. who is also considering entering the race for Governor stack up intellectually with the best the State has had. Furthermore, savs Mr Bost, since Ehringhaus comes from one of the extreme east ern counties, his opposition to any kind of sales tax probably means that at all events this will not be a sectional issue Interest in the governor'* race has been very slow in heading up; slower than in many years in North Carolina. Lieutenant Governor Fountain and Mr. Ehringhaus are the only announced Candida tea up to this time, Mr. Fountain appar ently being in opposition to the Gardner program It 1* generally understood that Commissioner of Revenue Maxwell is a potential candidate for Governor. At all events, with Mr. Ehringhaus and Mr Fountain formally in the race and with Mr. Brummitt and Mr. Maxwell testing out their probable chances, the prospect is that tne campaign will soon begin to take on life. It is well that it should, lor North Carolina's need of a stiSng and able man at the head of the State government to succeed Governor Gardner is great. To Hear Funeral Preached Himself Valier. ni.—S. R. Patton isn't going to wait ontll he dies for his funeral sermon, because he wants to know hist what the preachers are going to say about him. Hence, Patton who is gn years old and a pioneer farmer, has ar ranged for five ministers to come out to Jns place on Sunday, Aug, 30. and officiate at his "funeral.” “You see, T cannot live many “NEMAR” THE BLINDFOLD DRIVER USES Texaco Gas And Oils Exclusively “NEMAR” SAYS THERE IS NO BETTER GASOLINE QUICK STARTING — CONSTANT SERVICE BY USING TEXACO GAS— ABSOLUTELY ITS THE KIND OF GAS THAT GIVES YOU THE GET-AWAY YOU DEMAND. — LOOK FOR THE TEXACO SIGN — AH Texaco Stations Gift Prompt Service RIVIERE OIL CO., have been appointed Distributors for the Famous MONARCH TIRES.

Prices Exceptionally Low. more years and I have long wishttl to undergo the sensation of having my funeral preached while 1 was sitting by, instead of lying in a' casket," he said, in explanation of the unusual affair. "I am a great believer in tossing bouquets at the living rather than at the dead, and if any one ha. flowers for me I had rather they would throw them in my lap than on my grave. If the ministers wish to speak of my mistakes and im perfections they will have full liber ty to do so." The Rev. John B Maulding of i McLeansboro, one of the five prea- j chers invited, was asked how he would speak. He said he would "try 1 to talk as though this old man had, passed on.” Lutheran Church Service* Sunday Services will be held bv the Luth eran congregation Sunday. Rev N D. Yount, pastor.
