.sELF HELRIN COLLEGE.

1t Is said that of the 95S students
al the University of Mort hCarolina,
about one-half are of the "selfhelp"
kind, that is, those who are partly OF
altogether putting themselves through
school. The forms of self-help are
varied. In most colleges, service in
the dining halls is one of the mos:
lucrative methods employed. Agents
for laundries, clothing houses, ath-
letic supply firm, ETC., constitute an
other source of income.
One of the best things about this is
that the working students are nearlS
always the most highly respected ana
ADMIRED. They always stand we'll in
scholarship and when they go out for
athletics they make good. In debat-
ing and society work they excel. This
democracy of our Southern institu~
items is one of the many most ad-.
mirable characteristics. snobby
lasnly-dressed city dude who cannoI
deliver the goods stands no show on
Southern college campus. 1t IS
within a college environment, if any
where, that true worth will assert it's
self. College students and classmate>
are the surest judges of mans apili-
ty and just as sure rewarders. On
the other hand, they are just as keen
to detect fraud and shame. They ad-
n1ire a true sport. And nothing ap-
peals to them more than the spectacle
of a man buckiing down under diff-
culties to get an education.
Another laudable feature of this
self-help is the fact that when boy
works his way through school he -
trec.ates an education. 1t does him
more good than when he has "sponged

London. Oct. 6.-The sixty-third day
of the great European war saw repe-
tition of what the peoples of all the
countries concerned have forced them
selves to expect, perhaps for months
to come-no decisive conflict on land
Or sea.
That the battle between the allies

river Disc is growing more and more
violent is the only statement that has
been permitted to winnow through the
sieve of official secrecy concerning the
conditions prevailing on that part of
the long battle line in France upon
which the eyes of the world are TO-
Cused. The report of the French war
office makes no mention of whether
progress is being made by either side
nthis zone where for days the armies
have been battling desperately.
The statement is made that the
allies have gained little ground on

pFpRESENTED AT THE FAIR.
several Ohicers Secured From This
CITY: Prospects Bright for Good
Display of Exhibits.

Do+aj1s have practically been com
r1atad for opening the Western Caroli-
~ Fair at Asheville on next Tuesday
for periCd Of four days.
The fair management has endeavor-
- to have Henderson county more
cTo,o7v identified with this work than
heretofore and as result has secured
- rrmber OF fair officials from Hender-
sonyille.
Mrs. J. II. Bailey has been appoint
Oh n act as one OF the judges for the
rantrv department.
Mrs Lila Ripley Barnwell has ac-
cenred the office of one of the judges
of The department of ladies' handiwork.
f9dge for the rural singing con-
ttsr will be selected from Henderson
county and it is likely that one or more
cIoirs will go from this county. By
reason of the inclement weather last
Sunday the county singing convention
VAS not held, therefore the singing
classes are not we'll organized. but 1t
is believed that one or more 'choirs
will enter the contest.
It is the purpose of the fair associa-
ton to select a judge from Henderson,
vile for the department of fine arts
and hand work.
Arrangements have been made with
A. L Rollins whereby he is exerting
bis efforts to work up poultry exhibit
from this county.
Prof. W. H. Gale is among the direc-
tors of the educational department.
In making these appointments it has
been the purpose of the fair association
t. work up greater interest and more
exhibits from Henderson county,
which has furnished practically moth
ing for the fair heretofore.
A number of persons have express
ed a determination to make exhibits at
the coming fair and the management
has made arrangements for receiving
them at the Farmers Hardware & Sup
ply company's store at the depot. From
here the exhibits will be shipped by
express next Monday morning.
Exhibitors are urged to prepare
their entry lists before Monday if pos
sible and leave them with. Noah n.

will follow the exhibits fu Ashevilfe and
1IIHL6C EOT 0AcP1@ytA6 NAoA<1e s.~H& 5ESA1&S-
ments have been made whereby he will
remain at the fair and assist the mans
agement in the capacity that; he filled
with the fair association last year.
As will be seen by the page adver-
tisement elsewhere in the Democrat,
arrangements have been made for an
elaborate exhibition this year with
numerous free attractions of. a high
class nature.
In order to accommodate the visi-
tors from Hendersonville, Brevard and
intermediate points an excursion train
will leave Asheville at 1920 O'Clock
Thusday night after the fireworks dis
play. Special trains will be run in
other directions and low round-trip
excursion tickets will be in effect at
al stations.

MIR. PERKINS, SERVICES ARE
STILL HANGING IN SUSPENSE.
County Commissioners Fail to Arrange:
For Continuance of DemOnstra-
tiOn Work: Road Matters.

The board of county commissioners
met liz regular monthly session Mon
day and Tuesday and transacted busi-
ness of routine nature.
Although a delegation appeared be-
fore the board, urging the employment
CT Farm Demonstration E. L. Perkins
for another year, no farther action was
taken and the matter is left in sus-
pense ,as it has been since the last
meeting a month ago, when the COM
nlissioners expressed willingness TO
pay $500, half the amount of his salary
required from the county, provided
other sources would pay similar
amount.
There is a large element of the citi-
zenship in favor of the re-employment
of Mr.. Perkins, feeling that his work
is very valuable and a great necessity,
and they are of the opinion that the
funds for employing him should be
paid from the county treasury instead
Of drawing on the farmers union, the
county board of education and the
Greater HendersonvilIe club for the
expenses.
It is not known what action will be
taken, but it is believed by those most
ly interested in this work that some
united action will be taken to urge the
commissioners to re-employ Mr.. Pc
kins before he makes arrangements =
go elsewhere.
The board endorsed the report o.

PEOPLE SHOULD ATTEND AND
MAKE CLOSE STUDY OF FAIRS.
In Addition to Being Amusing They
Are Highly Instructive and Should
be Attended by Everybody.
Progressive Farmer. }

l.
We wish to urge our readers to at
tend the best fairs held in the South
this year. At least one large fair
should be attended by every farmer
who can afford to do so, and of course
every one should attend his local Or
county fair.
The advantages of attending a good
fair. like State fair, are many In
the first place, the highest type of
products is to be seen and if the iudg-
1hg is done right there is no better
place to. learn the points of excel
lence in any exhibit. Every Judge
| should give after each decision the
reasons for placing the exhibits, first,
second, third, and so on, if other
/, PremiE1ns are offered. Our exhibitors
and judges are usually in too great s.
hurry. More time should be taken,
even If more judges must be provided.
These large fairs also offer good op-
portunities for studying farm machin-
cry and implements and becoming ia
m1liar with them. The agricultural
fair must not be looked upon as only
for amusement. 1t is true that fur
nishing pleasure and amusement is
N~S VI 40 1oAStAOAAo1 puG q u1SAOI dnU
Better purpose is to furnish instruc-
ton and there is No greater pleasure
than learning, for the person who is
seeking knowledge.
Our fairs are sometimes criticised
because the efforts to amuse seem
greater than those to instruct; but
for this, those who attend the fairs
are as mUchsif not more to blame than
those who manage them If those
Who attend the fairs really want to
learn, and let it be known to both
the fair managers and the exhibitors,
the educational features will be
strengthened. Those who manage
fairs will supply those features which
please and attract the largest num-
bers. If more instruction, the besE
and most useful feature of any agrf-
cultural fair, is wanted by thOseguhe
attend, they can have it by letting
their wishes be known and by making

features already supplied.
Our readers should make use of

and useful trip or. outing can be plan

at a good fair and WeSurgee that more
of our readers attend the fairs this
fall and that they make more of an
effort than in the pastEto make these
fairs source of helpful information.

GARAGE WILL REMAIN OPEN.

Harry R. Savage, proprietor of the
Hendersonville Automobile company,
announces elsewhere in the Democrat
that his garage will remain open TO"
the winter.
Owing to the great amount of road
work done during the past year, 1t is
believed that automobiles will be able
to run all winter Heretofore during
the winter autobomiles have not been
able to run, hence the necessity for
garage. 1t is Mr.. Savage's purpose to
remain open at all seasons.

MIR. PATTON THINKS DEMOCRATS
ADVERTISING PLAN A GOOD ONE.
Says Tax of One-Temth of / Per Cent
Would Not be BurdensOme but
Highly Effective.

I was very much interested in read
ing the Democrats plan of raising
| money with which to advertise Hen
dersonville," said County Road Super
visor P. F. Patton, vice president of
the First Bank & Trust company and
real estate operator, to a representa-
tive of the Democrat "I think YOU
are working along the proper line.
The plan seems to be feasible one
and no doubt the majority of those
VINO have been contributing to the
support of the Greater Hendersonville
club would agree to some similar plan,
the details of which would have to be
worked OUT
Mr.. Patton expressed himself to the
effect that a special tax of one-tenth
of one per cent on the property in the
city would not be burdensome in the
least. By this plan the $4,000 pro-
perty owner would have to pay only
SO, the present membership fee of
the club, and 2 sum of about $2,09a
would be raised for club work.
while the plan for an advertising
! tax is a good one, it will take consld-
erable effort to get some of the people
to see its merits for the reason tha.
VIC have many people who are opposed
to paying anything for public move
ments when they can avoid it, he
added. There's nothing to lose by
agitating the question, while there is
a possibility of accomplishing a great
deal, so keep it up"
Speaking of the purposes to which
the proceeds of such tax would be
applied, Mr.. Patton said: While 1
thoroughly understand what you mean
by an advertising tax, probably it
would be we'll to make it clear that
the funds are not to be spent alto
gether for advertising in publications,
but for meeting the legitimate ex-
penses of the club, and in order that
those. who would be inclined to OPP
pose the movement for q lack. Of pub
lie spirit and not think that You arc
footing your-own horn for adyertis-
tieing, It would not be arniss for them
to understand, as do, that the funds
would not be for local publicity"
