SWEET SIXTEEN.

The French Broad Hustler complet-
ed it's fifteenth year with the last issue
and this week starts upon a new vol
ume. The publication was begun in
Hendersonville on the first of October,
1896, as a campaign paper, with no
expectation of continuing here after
the election that year. During the
five years proceeding, it had been en-
gagged in serving the good people OF
Pennsylvania county as the, BreVard
Hustler, and the editors intention was
IN resume his work at Brevard when
the campaign had been concluded. But
the enterprising citizenship of pro-
gressive Hendersonville set themselves
to- the task 81 keeping the paper here
and right here it is, fifteen years later
singing the praises of the best town
in western North Carolina.f Whilst
the Hustler is entering only its SIX
teenth year in this city it is twenty
one years of age on the fifteen day OF
the present month-just old enough to
vote.
During the t~wenty-one years OF It's
existence the paper has experienced
a most gratifying growth and develop
ment in the two beautiful towns which
made it's birth and continued pros
perity possible, and points with pride
to its own Efforts in the promotion OF
progressive movements that have con-
tributed in making these highly favor
able conditions possible. The paper
has been under the present manage
ment since the appearance of the first
issue in Brevard on October Is, 1891
and there has been a change OF
policy. 1t has been called upon to dc
a good deal of laborious work for the
cause of good government, and in lead
ing fights for educational progress
temperance and industrial progress
In some of these fights it has made
enemies, but we are rejoiced to know
that thelarge number of warm person
al friends attached to it's STANDARD
have recompensed it many times owe,
for every man, Of woman, that hai
been displeased with the positions tn,
paper has taken and it's methods o
warfare. Even now the Hustler hai
no new pledges to make, but it vii
strive to meet all the duties d~evolvins
upon it as they appear from week t.
decades CT our eventful career with
out any regret rs to the policies W,
have advocated, our only regret be
ing that we have not been able to d.
more in the battle for truth and right
Whatever responsibilities the futur,
may have in store the Hustler will
strive tc do it's duty as it sees it. Ant
this is all hat can reasonably be ex
pected of any newspaper.
With these few suggestions tn,
Hustler starts upon a new volume il

The public welfare work of Cleveland
is all-embracing. On the authority >of a
member of the board of education OF
that eitvl Cleveland is the only Place in
the United States maintaining CONT
plete system of school gardens ia charge
of a special supervisor. who is known as
the curator of school gardens Play
grounds and school gardens are so close
ly identified with each other that i'll
large measure they become one in scope
and purpose. Where many places IN the
country are Just beginning to engage In
welfare work on q scale of any preten-
sions. Cleveland has already a history
covering its aims in that direction For
instance the 1910 annual report of the
Home Gardening Association is the 1lth
annual statement issued by this organi-
cation That alone entities it TO distinc-
ton. Some of the most influential citi-
zens of Cleveland are interested in its
progress.
The summer schools and Fairgrounds
have been emincntIy successful, as wit
ness the report of Morton H. Dart, the
supervisor But. much as the Cleveland
children enjoy outdoor pleasure, it is
apparent that they wish to employ their
time usefully wherever possible. This is
the reason why the school garden has
been so pronounced a success.
The Willard farm school was made
possible by cooperation between the
board of education and the Home Gard
enlng Association The board of educa-
ton furnished the land and the tools.
The greater part Of the expense for su-
pervisien WIS last year borne by the
Home Gardening Association Boys and
Girls may here learn agriculture from
the beginning
Here are a few Things that this work
has done for some Cleveland children. A
mother says that Il can't understand
why it is that the children are so fasci-
mated in the gardens. We have had an
encyclopedia in our house for years, but
the children have scarcely looked at II
until this summer. Now it is referred to
almost daily to see what it has to say
about beets, beans. radishes, cucumbers,
cabbages and tomatoes
The father of two children who work
in the garden says: These gardens
nave feaily done Join anQ Mary more
good than any two years of schooling
they eyer had before, and it has done me
about as much good as it did the chill
dren.''
Another parent said that II think you
will have to get cots so the children can
sleep on the farm We can scarcely get
them home to their meals"
Evidence of the growth of the work is
obtained from the fact that where in
1860 there were distributed 1865 pack
ages of seed they had run up to 225000
packets in 1910 Under the same super
vision there has been seed distribution

MADISON.

Master Victor H. Robbins, Madison S
talented boy cornetist, received at a
private social assembly in Union hall,
Friday evening, a well-deserved trib-
ute to his musical ability in the shape
OF a beautiful gold cornet. from his
friends in this vicinity. Master Victor
began to play in public a little over
three years ago and soon gained not
only Statewide reputation, but Is
well known in musical circles all over
New England. Last spring, owing to
his great success in other places, his
Madison friends felt that he should be
given some substantial token from his
home town, so the movement was
started. Prof +. Il. Towne, leader of
the Lakewood Band, and to whom, in
a large measure, the success of the

JOHN STARK, Third Prize"
The above is enough to show that
school gardens are a tremendous sue
cess, that they make foundations which
become assets for good citizenship The
American schools still lag behind France,
where some few years ago no less than
1000 schools had such gardens attached to
them. But in France instruction in agri-
culture in primary and elementary rural
schools is obligatory.
Charles Orr, director of Cleveland
schools speaking of the school gardens,
had the following to say to delegates of
the National Educational Association
when it met in that city: 1T is granted
that the city school garden must fulfil a
mission somewhat different from that of
the rural or town school. 1t may. for in
stance, be the only opportunity the citv
child will have to observe the Processes
OF nature, which are quite familiar Ia
the country child.
INSTANCES of awakened interest in
the wonderful things of nature through
contact with our gardens are matters of
daily experience. From love and care
of the things of nature the child rises
to a deeper love and respect for his COM
rades, and through that again IN the
love of the Creator of all things"
1t has been said that the Cleveland
playground system provides splendid
vehicle for boys and girls in search of
outdoor amusement, The eatipment is
of the most modern kind, and whatever
money the taxpayer has had to contri-
butte toward their maintenance, citizens

OF advancing age, for many people

course, 1t is unnatural, and indicates
that there is something wrong with

The same is true of hair that is con-
