NATIONWIDE WILSON DAY.

AhC h4OOI NA1AS W. nav" ~ 800
about this week is the new developed
plan, already advancing at full speed
all over the country, for a woodrow
Wilson Countrywide celebration Sat-
urday, October 20.
1t is the plan to have Mr.. Wilson
send a message to Democrats through
Out the country which will be in the
nature of a Proclamation of the New
Freedom.
Every Democratic State and County
Committee is expected to promptly
cooperate with the Democratic Ma
tional Committee in NAL ng the cele-
bration the great success which it can
easily be made to be and which it al
ready promises to become, for the
suggestion is meeting with the most
enthusiastic approval everywh ire.
Descriptive of some of the day. Incl
dents" and events is the following:
From nearby points delegations will
go to Shadow Lawn to receive the
message in person; but to the more
distant centers the telegraph will con
vey the message and state and county
committees will vie with one another
in their respective localities to render
the day a red-letter one in a. com
munity. Not only will there be flags
flying, bands playing, banquets and
! speaking, but open-air meetings are to
be held wherever feasible and the
work accomplished by a Democratic
congress, through the Presidents in
fluence and inspiration, recited and ex-
pounded to audiences that assemble to
do honor to the day. At these gather
erings, likewise, will be read the gos-
pei OF "Americanism," in which the
President will point out anew his
convictions as to the position this ma
ton should maintain in the present
world crisis. In every hamlet, every
town, every city this proclamation is
to be read in the presence of as many
citizens as can be attracted, and fol-
lowing the ~deliverance of the message
the people will be invited by the chair
man in charge of the meeting to ex-
press in a few brief words their ap-
probation of the work accomplished
by the President and their sentiments
as to his candidacy.
In fine, October 20 is to be set apart
FOR a general outpouring of the spirit
Of the American nation, reflected
through the people, with regard to the
present national administration, which
it is believed the great majority of the
American people approve and endorse
AS they will prove ten days later at
the polls, and they are expected to re-
veal a vote of confidence on the occa-
sion of Wilson Day of such vast di-
! mansions that the country will be able
Ito realize how strong is the hold the
President has on the people and how
widespread the confidence they have
in him. 1t is a clever1y-planned coup
and if the various state and county
committees do their work well ii
ought to result in giving such impetus
to the campaign that will carry it to
election day without a halt.

Testifying in a divorce suit a New
York woman admitted that she some
times used one Or two dollar bills as
tapers to Light the gas, and explained
that It was only when there wasn't any
other paper handy. She could have
borrowed a match, but then, perhaps,
she could not strike it like a man, and
resorted to money. But it's a serious
matter to make light" of money in
that manner. If we were her nus-
band, We believe we would sue for a
divorce, too.

Man, thoughtless man, listen! The
soul is a very mysterious volume OYER
whose pages no eye hath scanned,
save the eye OF Him who created it.
Often we think we are familiar with
its contents, and can read SIS mo-
t:ves, and comprehend It's inspira-
tons, when in reality we have not
read the title page. Hence we are
quick to condemn, and slow to UNDER
stand. Let not your judgment of your
feIlowman be hasty.

It is just one thing after another.
in this life, like balls rolling down a
ten-pin alley. The first touch OF au-
8umn makes most of us begin to worry
about our Goa supply for the winter.
When we get that settled, then comes
the worry about the money we'll have
spend for ice next summer. What
ever it is, there is always something
to cause a fellow to spend the money
he gets. Isn't it so?

DEMAND FOR COLE.

Two years ago there were more tnan
eighty golf clubs in the immediate vi
entity of New York The number has
increased largely since that time, n
new clubs are always being formed,
In addition to the private clubs, h
city maintains a large course in a
I Cortlandt Park. 1t is now proposed that
a new course shall be constructed as
there Is so much demand for the priyi-
Iege of playing that it is almost impos-
sible for a golfer to play without being
| compelled to wait for seven or eight
hours after he arrives at the links.
This situation gives some idea OF the
enormous popularity the game has at
tanned in the North, and explains, in
some measure, why the city of Hender-
sonville should proceed to have a good
golf course as soon as possible. There
is a growing demand for it to make u
city more thrifty. In every city there
are many people who would like to
play golf, but who do not care to as
sumo the expense that attaches to
membership in a private club. Many
of these people do not feel moreover,
that they will obtain value received
from a private club as they r able
to play only once or twice a week,
and this is a small return in play for
the amount of money they are COM
PEELED to pay into a golf club. Around
New York the demand for opportuni-
ties to play golf is so great that nearly
all clubs have long waiting lists, and it
may require several years for a man
whose name is entered to become a
regular member. The man who de-
sires to play golf finds the door largely
closed to him in this direction. He can
do her only one of two things-either
join a club that is about to be formed,
or play on the municipal links. Now,
these municipal links are becoming so
crowded that more of them are neces-
sary. 1t must be remembered that gorf
is as popular with the class of men
who are able to spend time and money
to come here for the summer and win
ter seasons as it is with hose who do
not belong to regular golf clubs, AMI
who are not tourists. Wherever golf
IS to be had, tourists will 60. This Is
Hendersonville's opportunity to reap
a rich harvest next season. Get a golf
course by all means by the opening of
the next summer season. The more
opportunity that is afforded for play
ing the game, the more tourists there
will be. Hendersonville will find that
it did a wiser thing than to build
a golf course right away. 1t has got
ten to the point where most high-class
tourists absolutely ignore towns and
cities that do not have a standard golf
course. and for this one reason, if for
no other, We think a golf course for
HendersonVille is a necessity that we
cannot afford to pass up.

who have inherited a party spirit from

Nevertheless Senator Edge made an

nominee for Governor and why the
party should wiz Why should there be
a change of administration in State and
Nation when factories and labor are
BUSY. peace and prosperity are here ?
The war in Europe has made abnormal
conditions in America. When normal

be needed to keep out foreign goods

The Democratic party has put the
tariff back OF sugar and appointed a

we would command more respect abroad
if more prepared for war. While it was
said in Lincoln's second election "We
should not swap horses while crossing
a stream" he believed there should be
a thoroughbred Republican in the White
House.
On State affairs he said that a deficit
faced the Legislature two years ago.
but by cutting off some appropriations
and consolidating several departments a
State tax was avoided and economies
made. The new system of finance and
buying supplies at wholesale had made
more efficiency in State affairs. He had
no ambition for office other than to be
of service to the citizens. the ~stockhold-
ers in the government. Peace and pros
perity could only be maintained by a
high tariff and preparedness. He did
not c~riticise men but systems.

Senator Edge made a social hit by fill
ing the place of the snare-drummer, who

the Morris Guards in Atlantic City.
Senator Collins B. Allen. OF Manning
