asheo throughout the country. The

aud fertilizer. This goes to show
that there 10 the right kind of patri-

Aud the lesson being learned the

few sections of the country where
the people are too stingy to help in
such worthy cause, thinking too
much of the dollar, but these are
the exception.

the thanks of their country just the
same. The button is an honor to
any young man.

East Washington street is beinI
used as a speedway by the automo
bilists. 1t is no unusual sight to SCI
them going by at the rate of 8
miles an hour. 1t is dangerous t

crs who paid for this street are en-
titled to some protection.
