A Sermon for Today
When We Walk in Darkness.
BY REV. JOHN r. GUM.


unto the upright there ariseth light
in the darkness. Psalms, cxii.4.
There are times in Christian expe-
rience which are like being with Christ
on the Mount of TRANSPORTATION. But
we can't dwell on these heights. The
valley calls us back to everyday life and
its responsibilities.
We may carry with us into the val
ley the visilm seen on the mount. Yet,
as we trudge along the ways Of the
valley, the tendency is for the vision to
recede; often it becomes remote.
There are times In which our ex-
perience is the experience Of Thomas.
There are days when we hear not the
bells of Easter morn. We tread the
road to Emmaus, and we meet not the
risen Christ. We call to the 500 breth-
rem, and they answer not. We stand on
the Mountain Of Galilee. and there
comes no voice amid the bree0es. We
sail on Gennesaret's lake, and we see
no vision. We frequent the upper room,
faith cannot walk by sight in hours
like these. What shall we do at such
times?
who IL among you that feareth the
Lord, that obeyeth the voice of His
servant, that walketh in darkness, and
hath no light? Let him trust in the
name Of the Lord, and stay upon his
God"
20 Lord, when cannot follow Christ
to Olivet, let me worship Him on CAL
vary! When betimes I lose sight of
His risen form, do not shut me out
from the bearing of His namel In the
days when immortal hope Is dim, make
room in my heart for immortal men,
ory! II I cannot soar with Him into
heaven, let me at least go back to fin
ish His work on earth! Let me dis
tribute Of the IL baskets which were
not served in the wilderness! Let
me take up His burden at the spot
where he was too faint to carry it! Let
me mourn with the Marthas whose
Lazarus I cannot raise! Let me pray
with the paralytics whose weakness !

either Of two ways. If it is molded
turn out molds onto a dish and serve
at the table. This is an attractive
way. especially If crisp lettuce leaves
surround the out-turned jellied mix
ture. Put two or more lettuce leaves
on each plate and on it put the slice
of nodded salad.
If the jellied salad is in glass dish
it can 60 to the table in the same
dish, and be helped out from it. Be
sure to have lettuce leaves to put the
servings on. An easy way to have
the salad go to the table is served In
individual portions on lettuce leaves.
Mayonnaise or Russian mayonnaise
dressing is served with this salad. 1t
can be passed, or a spoonful be put
on each serving. The dressing should
be rather highly seasoned.

How 1t Started
BY JEAN NEWTON.

One of the best known sayings in
modern speech is, "The end must JUS
tify the means" When people are un-
der fire for line of action which they
cannot defend on its own ground, but
plead that it Is for their motives that
they must be judged, they say, "The
end justif1es the means"
There is the white lie," one exam
pie Of how the end may Justify the
means. The end may be saving some
one from being terribly hurt, which
could have no possible benefit, in which
case a falsehood may be ethically justi-
fable. And so in any case where the
results to be achieved are more i'm
portant in the scheme of things than
the method by which they are achieved,
we are likely to hear these words.
The saying is an old one, and its
author, Matthew Prior, who lived from
1854 to 1921. He gave them their first
recorded use In his Hans Carvel."

The Secret of Youthful Skin
Nature, you know, puts certain precious

elements are present in abundance in
youthful skin, keeping it radiantly smooth
and yo9ng-Iooking. But as the years 60

making skin rough. dry -. old-looking.
But here is good news: Scientists now

elements!

VISITED SITE
. DURING 1892
BY GEORGE w. MCCOY
In The Asheville Citizen-Times

So much progress was made in
1882 in the land acquisition pro-
gram and in other plans for the
Great Smoky Mountains National
Park that it is now expected the
present year will see the compile
ton of the work Of acquiring land
so that the national park may he
opened officially and the general
program of development started.
The outstanding event in con-
nection with the Great Smoky
Mountains National Park in 1882
was the completion by members
of the National Park Service staff
of plans for a 10-year program of
development.
The year 1882 saw at least 300
600 visitors to the Great Smokes,
according to figures released by
the National Park Service head.
quarters in Washington, this total
representing a large gain over the
figures for 1881, when. according
to official estimate, $4,000 per-
sons visited the national park
area.
The last II months also record
ed much progress in the construc-
ton of approach roads to the park
and in the making Of definite
plans for other approach roads
which will connect with the roads
to be built inside the area by the
federal government in connection
with its 10-year program of devel~
Opmert.
Last year also saw much prog
ress in the construction of Class A
trails within the park boundary,
this work affording employment
to a considerable number of men.
General development of the
park should be started by the Ma
tional Park Service within a year,
since We believe all lands will have
been acquired by that time" A.
3. Cammerer, associate director
of the National Park Service, said
while on q visit to Asheville last
December.
Nh. Cammerer said that after
the land had been acquired, the
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1933-04-19

National Park Service will begin
general development i'll the park
area.
J. Ross Eakin, superintendent
of the Great Smoky Mountains
National Park, has announced that
the park development plans, over
a lO-year period, call for a sys-
tenn of scenic highways within the
park area totaling 23O miles; the
early establishment of four ma
jor tourist camps, two each in
North Carolina and Tennessee;
the creation of a large lake in
Cade'S Cove; and the Inaugural
ton of an educational program,
which will call for the services Of
a permanent park naturalist.
Government engineers have
been at work for sometime on a
survey of the first Of the con-
struction units Of the road pro-
gram. This is a Scvcn-nIile link
from Newfound Gap to Cling
mans Dome, q part of the pro-
posed skyline highway between
Ncwfound Gap and Deals Gap
along the main divide Of the Great
Smokes.
The main park highways will be
roughly paralleled by system Of
first class trails, Mr.. Eakin said.
These trails will afford easy
grades for saddle horses. Other
smaller and sleeper trails also will
be built.
The new highway, completed in
1882 across the summit Of the
great divide of the Smokes at
Newfound Gap, is now the prin-
cipal traffic artery into the park.
The highway extends from Ella on
Highway No. 10 and follows the
valley Of the Oconalufty river as
state Highway No. 107. 1t climbs
through the heart Of the lands of
the Eastern Cherokee Indians and
the slopes of the main divide TO
Ncwfound Gap on the North Caro-
lina-Tennessee line. At the gap,
the highway reaches an altitude
of nearly 5000 feet above sea
level.
On the Tennessee slope, this
road deScends by Tennessee Route
No. II, near Gatlinburg, where it
joins Tennessee No. rs, a route
which skirts the border of the
park from Gatlinburg to Mary
vile, Tenn.
On the North Carolina border
Of the park, North Carolina High
way No. 2S8, from Bryson City
westward along the border of the

area, and State Highway No. l0S,
from Topton to the head of the
famous Nantahala Gorge, are pop
ular national park touring routes,
from which many vistas of the
region may be obtained. Near
Waynesville, new highway is be-
ing surveyed to Soco Gap in the
Balsam range. This route, when
completed, will be one of the most
popular entrance highways from
Hendersonville, Asheville and
Waynesville into the park.
Mr.. Cammerer said recently
that a magnificent system Of hik-
ing trails is being constructed by
the National Park Service within
the park. Many of these are al
ready completed and in use. The
famous Appalachian Trail, the
mountain hiking route from Maine
to Georgia, follows the crest of
the central divide of the Smoky
Mountains, directly through the
heart Of the park.
The Cherokee Indians, long I'M
noticed by tourists, have become
a center of interest for park trav-
elers since the construction Of the
new highway through their co.
000-acre domain. The Indians con-
tinue many Of their ancestral Gus
toms, the Green Corn and Eagle
dances and other events.
Along the border of the park
and in nearby cities are hotels and
inns which provide accommoda-
tons for park visitors. The ma
tional park is approached by a
network of paved roads on both
the North Carolina and Tennessee
approaches. The new national
park is easily reached from any
section. There are many favorite
routes from the east and north.
From Cincinnati, o., the Ontario
to Florida route over Federal
Route No. 25 through Asheville
and Hendersonville is popular be-
cause it has shortened the dis
tance from the Gulf states to the
Great Lakes and offers a choice
of entrances into the park in both
North Carolina and Tennessee,
The Shenandoah Valley route
from Washington through Win
chester, Va, Roanoke, Va, to
Winston-Salem or to Bristol,
Tenn.-Va., and thence to Ashe-
vile, is also a popular motor tour
ing route to the Land Of the Sky
and the Great Smokes.

ed to increase as spring and sum-

mer advance. The entire area of
$4,000 acres Of the park on the

be secured and decided to the Fed

within the year.
