 It is said that between four and five hundred dollars were raised in this city through sponsored events and donations made by business men and others who seem to have been forgotten since Lieutenant Waitkus made a personal appear ance in this city.

 The local committee which was headed by Dr. Staneslow of course acted in good faith, having offered their services after they had been requested by the national aeronau- tictl commission and since they have received little additional in- formation they plan further inves- tigation to ascertain the reasons for the failure of the flight.

Chest Dollars in Action
Washington Home for Fonndlings Helps Young
Mother Support 3 Children and Pre-
pare for Better Home.

Now, the two younger children are
happy in the Washington Home 1or
Foundlings, one Of the institutions
supported by the Community CHEST,
where they play with other children
of their own age, and are taught the
simple lessons their mother Is so
anxious for them to learn. The older
child was placed in another home, as
only those under six are cared for at
the Home for Foundlings.
Mrs. w. has the definite promise OF
a position within the next few months
that will pay her a salary sufficient
to re-establish the home that means
so much to her.
Had it not been for the temporary
help of the Home for Foundlings,
kept open by gifts through the Com
munity Chest, which enabled her to
regain the ground she had lost, an
other little brood would have been
scattered, and an Intelligent mother
would have had only memories to
carry her through life

How to keep three children and her
self on the $l4 a week she was earning
in laundry, was the problem facing
Mrs. w. The children's father had
been placed in an institution, SO it
was her duty to keep the family
together.
She had taken a business course
before marriage, and realized that, II
compelled to remain in the laundry.
she could not give her children the
advantages they should have.
If she could only review her busi-
ness course, the prospects for the
future would be much brighter, but
she was paying Sl3 of her meager
salary for room and board, so there
was little left for even the carfare
necessary to take her to one OF the
public night schools.
Then, on top of everything, one
child broke a collar bone and another
developed measles.
In desperation, she turned to the
Family Service Bureau.

NEWSPAPER MEN are artful-or

NEWSPAPER MEN are artluI-or
terrible!
A Washington scribe residing in an
apartment was greatly disturbed sew
eral nights as result of being awak-
end about midnight by the noise of a
typwriter being used in an adjoining
apartment.
Several times he raped on the, wall
believing the occupant of the other
apartment, a woman, would take the
hint and stop her work. To no avail,
however.
The man is an early riser and de-
vised the scheme of winding his alarm
clock at a m. and holding it against
the wall let go. This was repeated two
days. After that time there was no
more late tipping in the adjoining
apartment.
WHAT A FEVER!
BRIDGES have fevers!
Because they do, provision has
been made that the internal tempera-
ture of the new Calvert Street Bridge
may be taken by engineers at any
future time.
In pouring concrete for this span,
three temperature units were allowed
to be set in each of the three arches
of the span. At any future time an
engineer may attach meter to wires
leading from these units and tell the
exact temperature of the inside Of the
concrete.

LADIES IN WAITING.

THIS is a true story, and it prob
ably has a moral, too. TWO
men from Washington went to
Il New York over the week end.
Arrived, they called up two girls and
invited them for dinner that evening
at o'clock. That done, they made
the rounds of several lounges which
sell stronger than soft drinks Feeling
quite weary" when they returned to
their hotel, they decided that little
nap was in order At $50 one awoke
and told the other if they wished to
meet their dinner companions at 7
O'Clock they would have to hurry. They
hurried so much it gave them chance
to snach another drink AS they were
inbibing it one oflof them observed:
There aren't many people around
here for this time of the night.
To which the waiter replied. Night!
It's o'clock in the morning and you'd
better get out of those tuxedos."

times. l believe everyone realizes
that a regular epidemic of house
breaking, larceny, and other
crimes, has made it necessary to
have the sheriff's department as
well supplied with deputies now
as it has been during the past
six years when Sheriff Garren
was sheriff. The county commits
sioners have refused to give me
deputies because they say the law
is such that l am not entitled to
have another deputy sheriff, but
that the county commissioners
will have to employ him as road
man. Everyone knows that when
Zeb Corn was serving he was do
ing the duties of a deputy sheriff.
And the law is the same now as
it was then. l have been trying to
get along with a reduced number,
in order to help save the county
all possible expense / can. l have
been taking money out of my own
salary, to pay for the services
which the county paid for under
Sheriff Garren. | am willing to
do, and am doing, everything
within my power to protect the
property and lives of citizens of
this county, and will continue to
serve them to the best of my abil-
ity. But we need help often when
we can not get it, and sometimes
we are forced to call in and dep
utize any bystanders who may be
present. If there is a law which
prevents my having two deputies
regularly paid by the county, l
think it is only fair to the people
of the county. that you repeal it,
and have a law passed which will
permit two regular deputy sher-
ifs in the county in order that
we can give better protection to
the property and lives Of the peo-
pie. / intend to operate the sher-
ifs department as cheaply as
humanity possible. However, the
letting off of a deputy at this
time is in my opinion against the
hest interest of the county from
the standpoint of the protection of
life and property.

good look at the weather of the
past couple of days, were quite
ready to agree that spring had Of

Official temperature readings
for yesterday and today were not
available this afternoon, but UNI
official reports for yesterday
were from II to 70 degrees. The
temperature at noon today was
probably slightly higher and
miaht reach 80 degrees.
The weather today was unusual
for March in Hendersonville and
was regarded as too warm to last.
At least one more. cold snap is
expected here before the weather
really settles down for real spring
weather.
The weather yesterday and to-
day, however, brought forth out
door activity. The golf course was
enjoying a good play, and farm

ming to scratch about preliminary
