before the Grandstand. The

pany, the largest one Of it's kind
in the world, is now at work upon
the spectacle.
The War Of Nations, as II il
called, will occupy scenic setting
$50 feet long, embracing 80, 900
square feet Of canvas painted IN
oil. Over 300 persons will take
part. A Belgian city will Be
represented. In anticipation Of
an attack trenches will be thrown
up around the city, barb-wire
entanglements made, mines laid,
wireless stations erected, gun pits
dug, and highpower searchlights
located.
Night comes at last. Sentries
high in the tower Of the great
cathedral suddenly discover an
approaching air ship. Pande-
monium reigns. An army Of aero
planes and Zeppelins drops bombs
on the city. The roar Of heavy
guns, the binding flashes from
armored automobiles, the rattle
of rifle fire, and the bursting OF
mines, all fill the air with an
unearthly din. A great shell
strikes the cathedral tower, and
the structure totters and falls.
The city is completely destroyed.
Then follows q mammoth tab

of Peace. = In the boldness Of
the underlying idea, nothing Of
it's kind has ever been seen at the

spoken and it is the will of the
people Of Pine County that no
saloons shall be tolerated within
her boarders so let us forget our
difference Of opinion and abide
BY the decision Of the majority
as the abolition Of the saloon
means reform, progress and ad-
vancement. 1t takes away one
of the greatest existent tempta-
tions from the boys and young
men of our land. There Is no
question but what there are
many men who thought they
were right, by some form or an
other Of reasoning. in supporting
the saloon but we feel sure that
as time goes on that history will
repeat itself and that in three
years hence the large dry major
ity, as result of the election Mon
day. will be even larger three
years from now as 1t is a signifi-
cant fact that where saloons have
been closed for some time more
people than ever vote in favor
of the dry side and no saloon.
There is no question but what
any number of voters will see
that they have been in the wrong
and that any community is better
off from every standpoint with
out the dram shop, SO let us for
get the past campaign and let us
unite and put our shoulder to the
wheel and work for a bigger and
better Bruno, more settlers, more
development and a he althier and
happier Pine County.

belt.
left home August LIST, for the
home of my boyhood days in old
jackson. All went we'll till about
four in the afternoon. Then the
lightning began to play over the
top of the old Chattagia mountain
and the thunder rolled away in the
valleys below and the much needed
rain began to pour down in torrents.
1t is needless to say got my chothes
drenched once more, but | drove on
till dark. Then | found the good
Samaritan in Rev. j. NJ Hawkins.
He took me in where his good wife
had warm supper that made me
forget the wetting that | had gotten
q few hours before.
The next morning crossed the
Great Blue Ridge and went to my
old home, where l spent the month
with friends and loved ones of by
gone days, which made me think
back when | was but lad in old
Hamburg. But alas! Many faces
which were there in the old days
are missing now.
But after all there are many inn
prOvemeatS made in the way Of
school houses and roads since | left
the beloved old county. The best
road of all is from Cullowhe1 to
Sylvia, w!,;s::ch is not only credit to
Sylvia and Cullowhee, but to the
whole county. 1t is of vast benefit
to the upper part of the county.
But after all Sylvia and Cullowhee
have the burden to bear.
Well, sure cid enjoy my visit
and was never treated better in my
life except by two. Those two were
r. Stewart and N. Bumgarner, They
had promised a certain teacher in
Jackson to get her an old Gull, and
as there are no culls in Jackson
they esked me to help them out.
So sent my team back home and
stayed on: and as was using all my
thinking powers, | thought of an
old Gull in Pickens county. So it
was but a few days till he was on
hand and | was looking for the
Register of Deeds to put his sig
nature to the transaction. But a.
Mr.. B. is one of the county commits
sioners and Mr. S. one of the trus-
tees, and as they were going to
lose one of Jackson's best teachers,
my old brother had to walk back to
Pickens without any one to pat
dough for him.
Idid not get my fried chichen,
s0snOw.I don't know how they are
to fulfill their promise, as there are
no culls in Jackson, but | guess they
will treat her like they did me-let
her 90 home without the Gull like |
did without the chicken.
Fodder pulling will soon be over
and cotton picking will be on hand
for the rest of the fall
