Berlin expressed 1t, went with a swing
straight through.
popular opinion is what the school is
governed by said Professor A. n. Ber-
lin. in a brief address at the exercises.
and we want it governed in the very
best way, for popular opinion has great
deal TO do with the High School-to make
the Monday morning exercises what they
ought TO be.
There were two public addresses at
the exercises. Karl Schilling spoke ON
i~The Influence of Athens" and Miss
Elizabeth e. Cooding told Of "kipp and
the Harmoniea.' which was very humor-
Gus.
The musical program included a repe-

from III Trovatore.n and the "SeNtette
from Lucia" and were given as PROBES.

LET LIVE THE CITY CLUB.

The Greater Hendersonville club is
experiencing one of those trying pc
RODS which have meant the death of
our former civic organizations.
The club is suffering because it is
rot receiving the support which it
justly deserves. The financial condi-
ton of the club and the lack of gener-
al cooperation of the business and
professional interests of Henderson-
Vile are clearly set out elsewhere. in
the columns of the Democrat by Sec
rotary John w. Grimes.
: No one familiar with the recent ac-
comp1ishments of the club could deny
that its career has been most use
full one and that the returns have been
much greater than the Investment.
The lack of cooperation may be at
tributed to various influences AFFECT
ing the organization, but the main
thing is that Hendersonville has too
many parasites who are so narrow
visioned self-centered and slightly de-
veloped from the hirudinean type of
animalhood that they cannot see the
necessity or helping to develop the
community upon which they stick like a
leech and suck vigorously and long for
/, tLeir livelihood without contributing
to that which makes their success
possible. They contribute no more of
their time and money than they are
compelled to, yet they reap bountifully
from the labors of others. Their pub
lie pride is blinded; yea, paralyzed.
A ways and means committee COM
Losed of the following haye been APP
pointed to recommend plans for financ-
/ ing the club: F. A. Ewbank, chairman
S. T. Hodges, j. E. Shipman; R. G.
Clarke, Brownlow Jackson, F. s. Wet
Taur. w. s. Miller.
| The plans outlined by this commit
| tee will be received with much inter
est by the working members of the
club, who are interested in the welfare
of the organization to which the com
nunity must look for large degree OF
its progress and development.

NOT WISE TO TAKE CALOMEL.


Dodson's Liver Tone is just as sure
in results and always safe, pleasant
iE taste and has no bad after-effects,
As remedy for torpid liver calomel
has more than met its match in Dod-
sons Liver Tone. This medicine does
not roughly force the liver on to per-
form its work. 1t acts gently but
surely.
CaIomel depends for it's power up
on exciting the liver to do more WORK,
and often the liver is too weak to
stand such treatment. and after taxi
ing calomel you are as result some
times worse off than before
Dodson's Liver Tone cannot cause
any of the dangerous effects that
often follow the use of caIomel 1t
is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
the taste, and is suitable for childrea
and grown people.
Get a large bottle for fifty cents at
Justus Pharmacy under the guaran-
tee that if it doesn't satisfy you that
it perfectly takes the place of calomel
YOU will be given your money back.

sentative from the Tenth North Caro-

Jr., ever since he first entered con-
gress. He is now serving his fourth
term, although his service has not

valuable representative. He is man
CT unusually good judgment and com
mon sense, and is absolutely dependa-
ble He enjoys the respect and con-
fidence of the membership of the.
House, particularly on the democratic
side.
1t was unquestionabIy the record
of the democratic majority in the last
Congress which made possible the
election of democratic president,
and Mr. Gudger contributed his full
share toward the making of such -
fine record.
'eHe holds today very fine committee
assignments. He was elected by the
democratic caucus as chairman of tho
Committee on Expenditures. in the
Fost-ofice Department. He is also
chairman of the important Sub-com-
n.ittee No. on Public Buildings and
Grounds. His service on both COM
n;ittees has been such as to commend
him to his colleagues.
Length of service in the House of
Representatives counts for more than
perhaps in any other public position.
The rule of priority governs to large
extent assignment to important COM
mittees, and also the promotion on
committees. Assuming that a mem
Der continues to be Industrious AMI
diligent, the longer he serves the more
influence he exerts. The truth of this
statement is illustrated in some of the
other districts from his own State, as
veil as other States. Mr.. Gudger is
now in position to do greater service
for his State and district than ever be-
fore. and in my judgment his constftu.
ents will act wisely in returning him
to Congress-
