Offer OF Free site At Foot OF
Negro Mountain Already
Been Made By Galloway.

A proposal for the establish
ment of a summer camp for
boys, to be located at the foot of
Negro mountain, was made at the
American Legion meeting here
last Saturday night by B. D.
Barr, West Jefferson postmaster.
Mr.. Barr said he had already
secured the promise of an ideal
location for the camp. Charlie
Galloway, he stated, has offered
to give at least two acres of land,
including a fine spring, at the
foot of the Negro if the Legion
will sponsor the worthwhile pro-
ject.
He said a camp, including a
dining hall, barracks, administra-
ton quarters, swimming pool,
tennis courts, baseball field, etc.,
could be built for around $2,700.-
90.
Such a camp would be self
supporting and would attract
large number of boys from all
over the state to the county each
summer, he declared. 1T would
also be a great advertisement for
the county and a fine thing for
our own boys" he said. Of course
it could be made available to
girls, too.
Every one present at the meet
ing was keenly interested in the
proposal and promised to think

PARAGRAPHS

We were most favorably impressed with
the five suggestions made by Ira T. John
ston in an article that was recently pub
hshed in The State Magazine and reprinted
IN this paper last week, relative to speeding
up and increasing the efficiency of the
state legislature. We have always thought
that the taxing and spending committees
should work together more closely and
that headlines on local legislature should
be set.

he said.
Complete material for the
home and farm accident preven-
ton campaign will be sent to the
nine high schools in the county
this weekend, Mr.. Coward said,
and the principals and teachers
are urged to cooperate to the
fullest extent.
Last year $1,000 people lost
their lives and nearly five mil
lion were injured. More are kill
ed while at work in agricultural
pursuits than any other occup-
ton, he declared.

Allegheny county is one of the
|quitest, smallest, most compla-
cent counties in the state. She is
also one of the most Democratic
counties. The reason is Allegheny
took advantage when there was
no game laws and no protection
of wild life and killed up all the
Republicans.
Watauga and Allegheny both
have Ashe outstripped. Watauga
raises cabbage and Allegheny
beans. Watauga uses her head and
Allegheny her bean.

His name is little Tommy Dewey.
He thinks he is as great as Ad-

But he has no Gridley to say,

Nor neither will he.
He thinks he is some pumpkin
And really racket buster.

Now of all this everybody
Is getting really tired;
Because you cannot be president
On a mustache of the Captain of
Guard.

Really twist and squirm;
He is going to find out,
The early bird does not get the
political worm.
Now Little Tommy whether he
has found

Is lot of Tommy Rot.

Heard every few minutes in
the stores in West Jefferson
did you ever see so much mud
~. Have you had the flu too .
Have you seen "Gone With the
Wind" yet? Of course the wea-
Their comes in for it's share of re-
marks. In spite of the fact that
the grounding had a chance to
see his shadow, February has
been much milder than January.
Famous Birthdays
February seems to be pretty
good month to be born in since
it was selected for men like
Washington, Lincoln, Lindbergh
and Edison, but it was also the
choice Of some of West Jeffer-
sons younger citizens. Betsy
Barr, young daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ed Barr chose Lincoln's own
birthday. She was four on Mon
day, and celebrated too even if
her father did not take her to the
dinner in Greensboro. The Tuck
er twins, Ray and Juanita, are
partial to the Father of our
Country, for they celebrate on
Feb. %.
February is a great month for
all of the school children. Mrs.
Wick Vannoy says her pupils are
more interested in making hat
chefs and cherries, while the
high school students seem more
interested in hearts, all of which
shows a difference in age and
viewpoint.
Melba Gamble and Nena Belle
Barr, to whom fluttering hearts
are nothing new, have been dis
playing much artistic ability as
we'll as work in getting the ro-
mantle valentine motif injected
into the Junior-Senior banquet.
Speaking OF Romance
We received a reply to Glove
cake recipe" which we are pub
fishing here since it might be of
interest particularly to the mas
culine viewpoint.

THESE MEN
DOrOthea Nj. TOmIinSOn

These awful men! There is
nothing to equal them, in their
estimation. They think they are
the salt of the earth, the cream
of the crop, and the breeze of
the ocean. Why? Well, the only
reasons I know are: They can't
get over the fact that man was
the first on earth, and that if
it hadn't been for woman he
would never have had to buy
clothes. Also, that for many years
he was the ''head of the table
and boss of the stable" They
have such one-track minds, they
can't see that "Clothes makes the
man.; that although woman was
the second on earth, she has one
whole % rib more than man;
and that "Time Marches On" so
