Eugene Smathers, vVaynes viile, has been appointed super intendent of the Stedman Fish Hatchery near Fayettevdlle, Clyde P. Patton, executive director of the N. C. Wildlife Resources Com mission, announced today. Sma thers fills the vacancy left by the sudden death of Donald Stubbs, former hatchery superintendent. 1 Smathers is a native of Jackson county, and a graduate of Sylva. High school. He began his career in the fisheries field as a fish culturist at Balsam Hatchery near Waynesville, and recently has been in charge of the Arro wood'Glade Fish Rearing Station. "His fine record of performance and experience made him the logical choice for promotion to fill the position of superintendent of the Stedman Fish Hatchery," Patton said.

Belk I AND HIS NEWS OF NEBO VALLEY War. Matthew 10: Think not that I am come to send peace on earth. I came not to send peace, bill a sword. Don't t?U me we won't fight. That's in the bar gain. War started in Heaven* then was kicked out of Heaven. .Now they fight on earth 'til thfe com-, lng of the King. H. Y. Jr., and wife are spend ing the glorious fourth of Juy in the mountains of N. C. I'm spending my vacation at home under the shade of the trees. It looks like rain. God is good and God is great. Just the other night I awoke, .the ; storm was raging over a parched ! hrnted earth. The lightning flash ed and played like a new born : lamb. The thunder rolled and | tumbled. Then came dawn, the cooling rain drops from Heaven, | then all nature clapped their hands. It was a silent night. Af ter the storm the, rain still kissed the earth a silent good -night. J When the morning came the tot rid heat wave had spent is for ce. Now July ushered in with fine ' summer weather, but how long I ; can't say. I know I love October, November and Christmas too. You know, it only comes once a year to remind We mortals of the Christ child in a manger. Holy Night, Silent Night, that's the greatest event in my life ? Christmas. I love a storm at | night, it reminds one that God : loves his children when he feeds ' the earth with the silver rain drops, like millions of diamonds from the Heavens above. I wish I .could describe it more vividly. It I isn't the heat that hurts, its the humidity. $ A serious sub scriber asks us is the New Deal Is mentioned In the Bible. Indeed so, for the wisest man that ever lived in the world ? Solomon ?must M?2? Deal m. mind. when he wrote in book: thou you bray a fool in a fool in a mortor with a festlc, yet will his folly not depart from him. ? We see where a group of wise fools has started plans to revise the Bible. My notion is they'd better re vive the Bible. For statistics show that there have been more fool efforts thru the ages for re visers and radicals to destroy the I Holy Book Bible than all other! books ever writen. The facts are that two thous- j and years after the Bible was first given tl the world, it has; a greater circulation over the world than any other book ever ! published. It is the best seller in volumne and value. Holy men ! write this Bible divine. Now, if today Jefferson were to come back from the shadows and ; behold the Trumanites, he would at once dart back to the grave for he would not find the old Bi- j ble simplicity that our nation had before the New Deal took I over. The good Book tells us to love ' your neighbor. Why heck, who| is your neighbor. You can't ans wer that. Let forget it. America j was founded on prayer. When 1 Columbus and his crew landed on the American shores they went down on their knees in prayer. They got most everything they need now, but they have a bout forgot to pray. All we hear is we are the richest nation you ev er saw. About right, but only a few own it all. That don't do you 1 or men any good. I got all I ' I 9^1 we're naming" him - :.\tf I ho tmc value ol' your telephone is the value of voices you love, brought right into your home. It's the value of steps saved, errands run. . questions answered, peace of mind restored. All told, it's an amazing day's work for a modest dtty's pay. The price of youi telephone service is still remarkably low as compared with' the prices of most other things you buy. And telephone folks are busy .ill the time expanding and improving the service further ? jT" making it still more useful and valuable for everyone. Southern Bell 1 ele phone and Telegraph Company "W..Ut wton't fake 3 million -fbr if ttor caHf* mo big in service . . . 0O tittle in coat want. Three watches and one old . day. That's more thanl had when 1 1 was born. I've had a lot of fun, just messing around. I've fell in , Jove several times but I always 'got up and tried it again. What | is love? It has many definitions, but never been fully described. I have fell in love -with some very beautiful school girls. They were not beautiful. I was seeing dou jble, but pray, tell me why did ! they charm me so? Well, that' was all In the past. If I could re hearse back over these years, I'd do it again. You would too. Dear me, a vacation consists of one week now, which is too short after which you are too tired to . return and too broke not to come back. ' I've tried it' every way. With gloves on, gloves off. I find the ; best way in the \vorld to keep a few good neighbors hanging on your , line ? never borrow any | thing, not even a safety pin. Stay ? home and tend to your own busi ness. Don't throw mud. Then who is your neighbor. I don't knoW , but not always those who live next door to you. Often we get fooled, but we should live and learn. I had a real up to now friend in Kings Mountain. One day he [decided to move thirty miles a way. Lacked live dollars having moving fare. We came to me and 'said, H. V., if you will let me have five, I will pay you back Saturday when I draw my check. I said 1 will be glad to help you out. Saturday come but no money did he bring. Many more Satur days have passed, but I have never saw the man or the cash. | His name was Ray. He was one of ; my good neighbors. I have sever al more Just like Ray. We can for give but I'll be damned If you can forget. So don't talk to me a ' bout good neighbors. Just try 'em out and yoU'll find 'em out. Look how Scott done Smith and High Tax Harry did no better. The Bl [ bLe, -the greatest book to ever -ftfr [written, says your enemies- are ; those of your own household. | Take it for granted to be so. How could one expect people right j over the fence to be any better. The greatest sin in your life and | mine is talking about the other fellow. Oh, but some say I dsn't talk about my neighbor. I know why, you haven't got any worth talking about. The most perfect man divine that ever lived they called him an imposter and took him to the cross. I'm not a fool, I am not bad, I am not indifferent to what is right. I make my life so do you. We live it day by day. Love everybody If you can. Converting the world to Chrlsti- j anity is a bigger proposition than I it was before the flood. They had an ark to hide in but old Noah couldn't get the folks to go in the big ship. They didn't believe it was going to rain. Same way to day. So many people don't be lieve in hell-fire. Noah tried for 600 years to get the people to re pent and fall in iine but they still waited to see if it rained; People are still waitng, knowing the fire works are coming sure as the flood came. It rained 40 days it rained 40 nights. They called Old Noah a fool, but when the water got high and old Captain began to hustle around and load up his ne\P boat for a 40 day float and two of a kind went marching in from a command On High the people on earth began to fret and whine. Up on the mountains they went and chang ed their minds. They played to the old Ark Man that built the Old Ark for a ticket to ride the boat. Too late. The boat is now afloat. The rain came, the water got higher. The high mountains began to hide beneath this del uge of water. Finally the whole earth was deluged in one mighty ocean of water and the dead sleep In a watery grave. The flood descended. It was foretold 600 years before it started. Like the 4th of July. We are told death is under the wheel. We don't seem to regard it. 1 recken we should be sorry about all those that fool ishly got knocked off. But, Gosh, they knew better. I did so. I stay ed home. I want to see Christmas in all its glory. I know we can have a high hell time out on the highways if we get on the track and drive like the devil we will soon be with him. A living dog like me Is worth 6 or 8 dead skunks. -i Yes, they got a third war start ed. What will the harvest be? Let me see ? death, hell and destruc tion and no profit will any man get. All these war agitators should be hanged by the heels. Yes, Truman got a raise in pay but he's far short of what a mo vie star gets, but they all the time getting divorces. *ut that's the order of the day. Why stay with one all the time. Well, that is all for now. May see you later. From this New Deal Store, Speaking without hesitation, Flashes all this useless knowl edge. Like the brooks onward, Rushing ever to the sea, !

"i iii'' i in Viln^aT ffri ' Milk Marketing Bulletin Ready A new bulletin entitled "Milk Marketing Problems in North Carolina" has Just been publish ed by the North Carolina Experi ment Station, according to R. W. Cummlngs, associated director. The new publication is the re port of surveys conducted by W. P. Cotton, agricultural! economist, covering the three post-war years, 1947, through 1949. Cot ton's studies were concerned with the problems of an uneven sup ply of milk the year-round period and methods of determining pri ces to be paid farmers. One survey showed that under i the present pattern of production I time of calving is one main rea-. [son for high production in the summer and low production in the winter. Farmers with a high summer production oi milk reported that 25 percent of their cows calved in the fall. Farmers with a uni form pattern of production re ported that 42 per cent of their cows calved in the fall. Among the high summer production group only 36 per cent calved during these months. In dealing With price plans, Cotton exposes the problem, de scribes sevcial pricing systems and discusses the merit of each. He then suggests how these sys tems might be adapted to North We're Happy To Help Ton Finance HOME REPAIRS REMODELING Protect your home investment by keeping your home in tip-top shape.
