Horse Shoe lost two of her old resi-
dents, last week, by the death of Mr..
and Mrs. John 6. Sitton, aged 88 and
81 years respectively.
Mr.. S!tton died on Friday night and
wife a few hours later on Saturday
morning. The funeral occurred Sunday
afternoon, Revs. Battle and Woodfn
officiating. Burial was in Shaw's Greek
Cemetery.
A great crowd of sorrowing friends
and neighbors yer present to pay their
last tribute of respect t their old neigh
bors and friends. So large was their
number that only q part were able to be
accommodated ia the house.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sitton's death creates q
void which will long remain untitled.
They were fine examples of all that the
word Christian means and hardly a per-
son in Horse Shoe but feels they have
suffered a distinct personal loss.

Local News
TO Rural
Mall PAtrons

@-aI $500
Winter is now almost here. The
rural mail carriers have rather .
hard time. The patrons of rural
mail routes can help carriers a
great deal and not inconvenience
themselves much if they only
would. I know the carriers will
greatly appreciate any help the
people will give them and / be-
lieve they will repay any kindness
offered them for exertlng them
selves to give a better serice.
As to placing money in the
boxes to pay postage. Instead of
putting the pennies in the boxes
to pay postage, buy the stamps
and stamp your letters, or
put the money in an old envel-
op, so the carrier will not have to
pull off his gloves to get those lit
tic pennies out of the box. If you
don't think they r hard forget,
just get out and cut wood till your
hands get so numb you can't feel
them, then drop half a dozen PEN
MES in the box and try getting
them out.
This is only q small thing to
ask yet it means a lot to the car
rer who has to fish pennies out of
more than q hundred boxes every
day. The carrier has always a
stock on hand of all kinds of
stamps and supplies, and will
only be too glad to accommodate
you to any amount you may want.
The rural service is growing and
we must do all we can to grow
with it, and to help your carrier
means to help yourselves, as a
good carrier appreciates a kind
ness and will do all he can to help
the one who helps him,
Putup your boxes in convenient
places for the carrier to get to
them without dismounting from
his rig. Keep the roads worked
out 80 the carrier lean go along
without endangering his own life
or his animals.
Take all the county papers and
any other good newsY papers and
keep posted on what is going on
in the world.
Write to your friends, uncles,
cousins, sweethearts and all and
get lots of letters, be better pat
rons and make your carrier a bet
ter carrier.
We hope all rural patrons will
take due note of this and act &C.

Organization Needed.

The need of some live and efficient or
g~anization of business men in this town
was never so apparent as during the
essions OF the Presbyterian Synod Just
ended.
Here were men of the highest stand
ing from all over North Carolina. There
were ministers and elders and among
them bankers and lawyers of more than
alocal reputation.
They were all pleased, of course, with
Hendersonville and their treatment
here. But there should have been plenty
of attractive advertising matter ready
for distribution amongst them. A car
riage drive would have been q fine adj
vertisement for the town, and an oh
cial welcome from some such an organ
ization would have been in good taste.
They would have taken home with
them some attractive booklet and the
results would have been surprising.
As it is, one of them, Mr.. Clement, has
contracted to buy"valmont,' y for $1,000,
and mi OF two others have property
under consideration.
These are just the people Henderson
vile wants to interest in Hendersonville
yet over zoo Of them were here and no
organized effort-made to show them why
Hendersonville is the ONLY place in
the South to buy property in, % hold
conventions in, to spend the summers in,
and to send their friends to.
It was a great chance and it's a pity
it was missed.
