SAYS COUNTY

Expect Saturday Nights
Meeting To Be Last 10
Get League Going
By E. H. CASE

Perhaps no one ever tried to
fiqure out how long it would
take a turtle-dove to carry the
world away grain by grain, but
doubtless, there are a few VINO
are wondering how many meetings
and how much ballyhoo 1T IS GO
ing to take to get the Hender-
SON County Baseball League IN
running order again. And, Tor
the relief and enlightenment OF
those mentally conjecturing along
that line, it can now be an
nounced that the loop will be
completed and ready to swing
into action by the last Saturday
in April, if nothing goes amlss.
Just how many teams Will take
,art in the race for the county
championship this year is not
known as yet. But President Zeb
Hoots has eight clubs in line at
this writing, but he is not GER
tain of Fletcher, winner of the
rag last year. which seems to
have graduated most of it's star
performers to higher class base
ball. However, Mr.. Hoots will
try his darndest to induce that
section to retain it's old berth in
the loop. Fletcher has great
number of red-hot baseball fans
and several young and promising
| ball players and certainly should
have a team in the county league.
The other teams, East Flat
Rock, Balfour, Green River, CCC
Camp F-2, Mills River. Fruitland
and Valley Hill, are all prepar-
ing for action and can be con-
sidered in. Fruitland and Mills
River came into the fold at a
meeting held at the court house
last Saturday night.
Another and final meeting be-
fore the season opens, will be
held at the court house next
Saturday night, April 7th, at
7:30 o'clock.

TRYON, April "a crowd of
visitors reminiscent of the boom

Tryon for the horse and hound
show season. and hotels and inns
are reporting the largest regis
tration since pre-depression times,
while visitors in ever increasing

sponsor of the annual horse and
hound show, is being deluged with
entries to the extent that it has
been found necessary to build 70
additional stables at the horse
show grounds to provide for the
many fine new horses expected
for the event.
AS in the shows Of previous
years, splendid army horses from
the posts of the south will add
color and provide many thrills
in the hunter classes on the pro-
gram of the horse show. Fort
Mcpherson, Georgia will be rep
resented by large group of fine
army horses and skilled riders
under the leadership Of Lieuten-
ant Baker. and the 109th Cav
airy of Statesville will again
have some of it's fine hunters
entered in the show.
Many fine fox hounds are ex-
pected for this part of the pro-
gram of the show on the 18th.
Some Of the largest and best
kennels of the south will be rep
resented in the show.
The horse show will have it's
usual round Of attendant social
events, outstanding among which
vii be thel brilliant horse show
ball at Oak Hall on the evening
of April 10th, and tea for the

The Synod of the Associate Re-

STAFF
IS RE-ELECTED
FOR '3}-;A Term
Board Names Supt. Waters
For 2 Years-Singley
Made H. S. Principal
PER CAPITA COST IS
CUT TO l1.8c DAILY

Reelection of the entire staff
of the Hendersonville city schools
and the selection of l.. K. Singley
as principal of the high school
next year marked a meeting of
the city school board last night.
F. M. Waters, superintendent
for the last two years, was re-
elected for two more years, the
extension beyond the term of one
year for which he previously had
been elected being an expression
of appreciation of the board for
his efficient direction of school
affairs and of confidence in his
ability to carry through the re-
stricted program with the great
est degree of effectiveness, r. P.
Freeze chairman of the board,
said.
All other elections were for one
year. The office of principal was
created on the recommendation
of Supt. Waters, and Mr.. Singley
was chosen for the place because
of his valued service as head of
the manual arts department and
his leadership in school affairs
generally. The school has been
without principal for fous
years, Supt. Waters and his pre-
decessor, A. w. Honeycutt, hav-
ing served in both capacities since
the beginning of drastic reduc-
tions in the size of the faculty
and marked retrenchments along
other lines.
In connection with Supt. Wa
ters' administration, a financial
report last night showed that the
local schools this year received
from the state $24,519.27 for OPP
Grafton of the eight months term
as against $25,617.63 received
last year as the states six
months part of the nine-months
term. The per capita cost of 10
cal school operations this year
has been 11.8 cents day, the
per capita total for six months
being 1888 as against a per
capita cost as high as 1929 in
$780, The lowest per capita cost
up to this year was $34.85 in
1912, the first year of Supt.
Waters administration. Thus, the
city schools are being operated at
considerably less than a third of
the per capita cost in 1880 and
about one-half of the cost in the
succeeding year.
Largely because Of the short
ened school term, Supt. Waters
announced that a summer school
will be organized at the close of
the present term fer the benefit
of pupils who passed the require
ments but wish additional instruc-
ton and of others who, on ac-
count of sickness or other rea-
sons, have not met current edu-
cational requirements. The sum-
mer school will be operated on a
tuition basis, the tuition depend

UNFAIRNESS IN RENT
POLICY CHARGED
Baltimore Real Estate Board Pro-

Commission Rule.

BALTIMORE. August ( (SpeciaD,
Declaring that the new rent policy
of the Baltimore Emergency Relief
Commission Is discriminatory and
unfair to landlords and tenants, the
Real Estate Board Of Baltimore this
week protested the adopted basis Of
2 per cent gross on assessed property
values as equivalent to conf1sca-
ton"
It's objections were based on the
following contentious:
1. The proposed rate Of per cent
gross em the assessed value (on which
both the State and city are collect
ing taxes) Is inadequate to pay the
inescapable fixed costs Of maintain
ing the property.
2. It is discriminatory because al
lowances for all other necessities,
such as food, clothing, fuel, light. gas
and other essentials are based upon
the prevailing market rate for these

of the local clerk Of the Circuit Court
reveal that the recording Of deeds
and deeds Of trust for the first six
months Of 1894 has increased to the
extent of lot over the same period
In 1888. For the period ending June
30, 1894. i,074 such papers had been
put to record. whereas last year the
number was 967. actually an increase
of approximately per cent for the
current year.
A comparative study of record
ings by months shows that the in
crease has been steady during the
entire half year, with only one month
falling behind the same month last
year. BY months for the two years,
the figures are: January, 1888, 40;
1884, ITO; February. 1888, 1856; 1894,
149; March, 1893, 145; 1884, 162;

and 1894, 1S8.
While q portion Of the increase In
records Is attributed partly to bet
tering economic conditions, It is also
thought the number Of loans secured
by property owners through the Home
Owners Loan Corporation has helped
to swell the six-month averages.
Although actual real estate trans
fers in the county are considerably
behind pre-depression days. yet one
prominent realtor has stated that
sales are somewhat over the total for
the first half Of 1888.
