WHY?

We notice that the question OF
establishing a Western North Caro-
lima Training School is again being
agitated before the General Assem-
bly, and that it has been recon-
mended by Governor Craig, in his
message.
The friends of the movement
maintain that the object of the
school is to provide for the training
of teachers for the public schools of
the counties comprising the three
Congressional Districts of this sec
ton of the State. They assert that
the need of more efficient teachers
is imperative and that the new
school is intended to supply this
demand.
In it's issue of Monday, last, The
Asheville Citizen utilized some two
columns in giving news of this
matter and in discoursing at some
length in the effort to prove to the
people of Western North Carolina
that the school is needed and to
show to the friends of Boone and
Cullowhee that the new school
would in no way interfere with
those splendid institutions.
The first question is, isit needed:
Would it be advisable for NORTH
Carolina to invest thousands O
dollars in a new school for this Dur
pose. We have already two sucf
schools one at Cullowhee and on,
at Boone both of which are insti.

that is the object of the proposed
establishment. They are located
most admirably for serving the
greatest number of young people OF
the territory for whose benefit the
other institution is proposed. By
investing in the two old schools a
fraction of the money taht will be
necessary for building a plant for
the new, the State can accomplish
the purpose more speedily, more
efficiently and at the same time
reach larger number of the young
men and women who are fitting
themselves for teachers.
The promoters of the movement
assert that the training school
would not in any way interfere
With Cullowhee and Boone as the
stand ard OF the curriculum
would be higher than that at those
schools or a course of study be-
tween that OWEN at CullOWhee and
Boone and the State Normal at
reens: GRO.
But, this is impossible as there is
10 middle grounds as Cullowhee
lis students TO enter the State
Normal.
The movement is to establish,
in the city of Asheville, at the ex-
pense of the State, a school that
will compete with the two splendid
Institutions that we now ha e.
The question is not a new one
The friends of Boone and Cullowhee
have had to meet and combat this
blow at them before now. They
are on he alert. They are ever
watchful. The tull import of this
scheme is an attempt to destroy
the two most important State in
stitutions in Western North Caro-
lima and establish in their stead ;
new school in Bumcombe, for Bum
r combe, and in the interest of Bum
combe, but at the expense of tn
State and to the detriment of tn
e other counties of Western Mort
r Carolina.

The most powerful anti, septic known to science is hypochlorite of lime, but it's use is injurious to the tissues owing to it's acidity, and it does not keep.

RUSSIAN SCIENTIST STEALS GERMANS

Petrograd, Aug. 1o-A well known Russian scientist, a professor in one of the universi ties, has recently distin-f guished himself at the front as an air scout. He went with the army to Ga licia as a volunteer, and while there interested himself in aviation, becon- ing a very useful observation officer by reason of his scientific Knowledge.
 A fewY days ago a German plane. apparently by mistake, descended be- hind the Russian lines, and the pilot and observation officer were promptly taken prisoners, before they even had an opportunity to destroy or wreck their machine.
 The professor. with a military pilott immediately saw. his chance and climbed into the captured aerop1ane They rose as rapidly as possibly in order to escape any firing from their own side and made for the German lines Having flown at first at a con siderable height. they descended to a good inspection range when they and thoroughly examined everything visible making. notes and plans at leisure.
