COUNTY TEACHERS
IN SESSION TODAY
TOPICS OF GENERAL INTEREST
WILL BE DISCUSSED.
A Very Large Majority Of Haywood
County Teachers Prove Their In
terest by Taking Part in These
Monthly Meetings.

Few counties in the state can boast
of better attendance at the monthly
teachers meetings than can Haywood
and few counties can boast Of a corps
of teachers more efficient in their
work. The community interest and
spirit is developing among our teach
ers and, to very great extent, the
efficiency of teacher can be meas
ured by the interest which she takes
in community affairs independent Of
the hours spent in the school room.
To be able to render maximum Of
efficiency the teacher must make the
home life and social welfare of both
parents and pupils subject Of study
and deep interest on her part. In
order to help the child as she should,
she must make the ehild's environ
ments, to a great extent, her own,
developing and uplifting wherever and
whenever she can. Teachers who fail
along this line lose to very great
extent, their opportunities to WELD an
uplifting influence IN the communities
in which they are working.
1t is at the teachers meetings that
these subjects and innumerable others
of deep interest to all growing teach
ers are discussed. The Indifferent
teachers only absent themselves hab-
itually from these meetings. No
teacher can expect to develop in eff
cheney unless she is willing to go to
the trouble and expense of meeting
with other teachers for discussion and
exchange Of ideas on the perplexing
problems which come to them daily.
Following is the program for to-
days meeting which will be held in
the chapel of the high school and pre-
sided over by the county superinten-
dent.

year, and while the church was burn
ing some person wired Rev. Newell
what was going on and he publicly
stated that Conference would be held
here. When he came home to work,
being a fine leader Of men and with
the public spirited and enterprising
citizens behind him, the church was
built and completed ready for Confer
ence.
The next frame church was the
Baptist church-It was built jointly,
two stories high, the first story for
the church and the second story for
the Masonic and |. o. o. F. fraterni-
ties, and on the lot where now stands
W. W. Crandell's home. 1t was very
substantial building. John and Spen-
Ger Thomas were the builders. The
members of the church disposed of the
property to the Christian church peo-
pie, and they afterward sold their in
terest to four citizens who rented it
to the Union Seminary, and it was
finally destroyed by fire. The Bap-
lists then built their brick church
where it now stands.
The Episcopal church was the first
brick church built. 1t was built in the
year 1852. With the exception of
three churches, Presbyterian, Jewish
and colored Baptist, all the churches Of
orr citv arc of hricL
1t has now been 81 years since the
first Presbyterian church was built
and 56 years since the present frame
building was erected. In order to
keep up with this advanced age Of
improvement and the much need
OF, a larger building, the ladies of tie
church have taken the matter in hand
and are preparing to adopt plans to
secure the necessary amount OF funds
for the building Of modern brick
building with all the latest designs and
improvements. 1t has been reported
that several thousand dollars have
been promised as a start to secure the
necessary amount for the work that
will prove to be of SO great addition
to our already beautiful town. As the
ladies have taken the matter in hand
it will be a success as they never fail
to accomplish what they undertake.

BRITAIN DECIDES TO
ORDER NO BLOCKADE
Storm OF Protest From U.S.. and
Sweden CooIs Ardor, Papers
Hint.

LONDON, Jan. 26.-The British gov
ernment has virtually decided to stand
pat" on its present trade regulations
and will mako no announcement or a
blockade of the entire German coast
in Parliament this afternoon. the ma
jority of well-informed parliamentary
writer's agreed today. Only a few
papers cling to the belief that the cabi-
net will announce a radical change or
policy.
The net thrown about Germany by
the existing regulations may be tight
ened in some respects. But 1t is the
gens'al belief OF the London newspapers
that the cabinet has decided against
any revolutionary change In policy.
The storm of protest raised In the
United States and in sweden, some or
the papers broadly hinted. has cooled
the ardor of advocates of the blockade,
II 1t has not had its effect upon the
government The newspapers gave
prominent display TO the warlike utter
ances of the Swedish premier In his
Riksdag speech yesterday. and the
Daily Telegraph and the Daily News
cautioned THE government against any
action likely to involve Great Britain
with neutrals.

Word From White House That

BIG REVOLT is THREATENED
Presidents Program for Ma

Dissatisfied congressman.

Legislators who have always re-
sponded nimbly to the cry rally
round the pork barrel. boys" are n
disconsclate lot today. The air about
tho Capitol is filled with gloom germs
and grouckes are prevalent on the
floor.
Word has come from the White
House that there IS TO be no distribu-
tion of pork" at this session.
The attitude of the Administration
has brought about q situation which
threatens a big revolt in Congress,
and the prospect is that the Presi-
dent Will find himself faced with
condition wherein the preparedness
program will be endangered by insist
ence of members that if there is TO
be no pork" there will be no large
sums voted for army and navy eX-
pansion.

Congressman Claude Kitchin the

situation. During that talk Mr..
Fitchin received a distinct impress

Consequently, in faithfully reporting
the Presidents views on such matters
as a tariff commission. an anti-dump-
ing clause, early adjournment, ana
revenue legislation. MIR. KitChin was
obliged to impart the information that
the President hadn't included III his
program the so-called pork barrel'
bills.
In fact. the majority leader brought
back to the Capitol the hint that the
President would not stand for AN ON
nibus public buildings bill under any
circumstances. and that the river and
harbor bill must be confined to the
maintenance of existing projects. Botn
the Public Buildings and Rivers and
Harbors Committees were at work Oh

The House passed. only yesterday, the
Shackeford bill appropriating $500, OnO

to have been in vain. because the Pres-
dent is not iikely to accept a good roads
bill. embarking upon a new field OF
Federal expenditures, when he has
turned down such old Legislative stand

Indications are that the good roads
bill, sent over to the Senate today. will
never pass that body despite all the
fervid oratory uttered in its behalf IN
the lower chamber and the alleged
pressing need for Federal contributions
to roads in the rural communities.
In fact. there is very little pork"
