A Serious Indictment

We are impressed by headline which
appears over news story that is printed on
page three, of the second section of this
issue. 1t states. LACK of Ashe Farm Gar
dens Costs County About $22, 1897 in 1910.
What are the facts back Of this headline?
Of the 1853 farmers in the county in 1940
a total of 523 of them around thirteen per-
cent, did not raise garden, and the value
of the average garden in the county that
year was $43.
In the state, there were 1,149 farmers
who did not have garden.
Imagine a farmer without garden? We
can't It's like thinking Of train without
an engine, Christmas without a toy, storms
without wind or rain, or flapper without
Hpstick. No, that simply doesn't make
sense. Every good farmer raises a garden.
That's one of his "firsts''.
No wonder we have people who are un-
dernourished and underfed. No wonder
there are many who apply at the welfare
office for gifts of surplus commodities.
Why? We do not know Laziness is probab-
ly big contributing factor.
"The vegetables that can be grown on a
half of an acre garden would cost the farm
housewife $222," Mr.. Watsin says, and adds,
"A family of five should have at least half
of an acre garden"
AS one of the goals for 1912, let's resolve
that every farm in Ashe county will have
a garden!

effort on the project. Mr.. Black
burn said he had not been able
to contact all merchants as yet,
but would make an effort to do
so and asks their cooperation. A
number of local merchants have
expressed themselves over the
value of the decorations to the
appearance of the town, as we'll
as Christmas business.
Another feature which adds
much to the appearance of the
town are the gala windows show
ing Christmas merchandise with
a background of snow or other
colors typical of the season.
The Skyland Post is offering
cash prizes for the best decorated
windows. A first prize of 81, a
second of ST are offered.
All merchants are urged to par
ticipate in this contest.
The people of Ashe county, as
we'll as this entire section are in
vited to West jefferson to see the
lights and windows, as well as to
do their Christmas shopping here

scenic attractions and accommodations in
our counties. Second, let's provide more
overnight, modern tourist homes, inns and
other accommodations. Third, let's prov de
more recreational facilities so that these
visitors will want to stay longer and spend
more money with us. Fourth, let's get our
people to "go in for' making more hand
craft articles to be sold to these people.
That's one of the things they're looking for
and want. Let's also get the REA coop to
help us put in a "whiteway" at West JEFF
ferson and Sparta.
We've really got something in the Park
way, but it will not do us much good if the
visitors merely drive through our counties
and not get off of the Parkway. All of them
are looking for attractions and it's up to us
to tell them about what we have to offer
them for their comfort and enjoyment.
There's gold all around us if we'll just
make it glitter!

The sale of Tubercular Christmas Seals
which opened in Ashe on Monday, should
remind everyone again that much good can
be done at small cost, in helping to
stamp out this dreaded disease.
Progress is being made in this field; for
the tuberculosis mortality rate which was
200 for 100000 at the turn of the century
has now been reduced to At. And this dis
ease which now ranks as seventh in the
cause of death, was first, up until 1912. But
there is still work to be done and the sale
of seals helps to do it. Buy tubercular seals
this year Help in very worthy cause.

present and took part in the dis
cussion.
Messick assured the town that
the REA would be delighted to
cooperate in securing the white
way. It was also pointed out that
now is a good time to make the
change because of the work I'M

All business men are urged to
attend the meeting Tuesday night.

to the town and can now be Sc
cured at a minimum of expense,

Make Cold Glitter!

Surprised? Yes, we were almost amazed
to learn few days ago that nearly mil
lion persons visited the Blue Ridge Park
way this year and that around half of
a million people actually Travelled over
sections of this magnificent highway in AL
leghany and Ashe counties during the past
twelve months.
We knew the traffic was heavy, but we
hadn't thought of it's being that heavy, es-
pecially in view of the facts that: first, no
unrestricted invitation has been extended
to the motoring public and second, the
Parkway is not completed to Asheville, or
to the Smokes.
But last summer and this fall, people
came, saw and were delighted. National
Park Service figures further show that
Cumberland Knob and the Bluff parks in
this state were the "most popular.
What does all Of this mean to us here
in Ashe and Allegheny? Well, let's figure
it this way: Suppose each one of the visi-
tors spent an average of 81 in our counties.
That would total 100000 or grand half of
million! Lot of money, eh? Sure, but it's
possible!
! How? First, let's get the REA coop to
help erect beautifully illuminated electric
signs on the Parkway, telling about the

DIR. Rankin Speaks!

Whether you heard DR.. w. S. Rankin
speak at the recent dedication of the Ashe
County Memorial Hospital or not, every
reader of this paper is urged to turn to
page two, second section, and read this eye
opening address.
In describing our county's sick problem,
DR.. Rankin puts it as follows: an average
of $50 persons die in the county each
year; ATS children are born and one-third
of the mothers bearing these children re-
ceive no medical care; one person out OF
every 49, SIS people in all, are sick in bed
each day in the year and hundreds of 9TH
ers are suffering but are able to be up.
What about the medical service? He says
the county, with only seven doctors, has
$3.50 people for every physician, as COM
pared to the nations average of ISL per-
sons per doctor
What about the need for a local hospital?
See what he points out about this need!
And don't fail to read the beautiful con-
clusion of this speech. "Out of sympathy
is born that supreme emotional element,
love. Love is one relleCCeQ interest,", one )
interest mirrored in another soul and it is
only through the identifying effect of SYM
pathy that one enters into and becomes
part Of another life"
That's wonderful philosophy. "From suf-
fering sympathy, from sympathy love, from
love service, from service sacrifice and
from sacrifice salvation, so far as this
world knows it."
And now the last paragraph "This
hospital is place where pain will be
eased; where death will be stayed; where
broken and damaged bodies will be re-
paired and restored; where new lease on
life will be granted; where there will be
rebirth of opportunity. But it is more than
that. It is place where the spiritual qua
lily of life of this community will exercise
it's supremacy and healing influence over
the weaknesses and misfortunes of the
flesh"
Do you regret that you have had part
in the establishment of such an institution?
No, it makes you feel good inside, yes, down

to reach you and give hospital
protection to you and to your ia

"Already over $4,000 North
Carolinians are members of our
non-profit service organization
and are paying small monthly
dues to a common fund to pro-
vide hospital treatment to all
members. Our plan is approved
by the doctors and hospitals OF
the state and we have already
completed a contract with the
Ashe County Memorial Hospital
to provide services for our mem
bers.
"Our association plans to give
you an opportunity to participate
in this community enterprise
through local groups and we are
making arrangements to start
groups through the list of hos
pital contributors, through the
Oranges, the REA, commercial
and business organizations and so

President w. B. Austin, of the
Hospital association, this week
urged every person in the county
to investigate the advantages of
becoming member Of this asso-
citation.

Words of Bible
Laud Virtues
In Giving

A little research reUeals
that many of the familiar
quotations on the Uirtues
of "giUing" haUe a sound
basis in Holy Scripture.
Though they were not all
made in connection Nth
"giiUing" at Christmas time,
the Uerses belouD Gall taken
from the Bible) proUide
definite clues to the origin
of the many more modern
"giUe" slogans so often
heard in the holiday sea-
son.
GiUe, and it shall be given
unto you; good measure,
pressed down, and shaken to-
gether, and running OUer,
shall men giUe into your boS-
ON. For Nth the same meas
ure that ye mete tUithaL it
shall be measured to you
again.
Luke 6:3S.
I haze shewed you all
things, hosU that so labouring
ye ought to support the weak,
and to remember the words
of the Lord Jesus, hotU He
said, 1t is more blessed to giUe
than to receiue.
Every man according as he
purposeth in his heart, so let
hin. give; not grudgingly, or
of necessity; for God loveth a
cheerful giver.
4 gift is a precious stone in
the eyes of him that hath it:
whitherSOeUer it turneth, it
prOspereth.
He that giUeth unto the
poor shall not lack: but he
that hideth his eyes shall
hare many curse.
But rather give aims OF
such things as ye have; and,
behold, all things are clean
unto you.
Luke H:41.
And no,U abideth faith,
hope, charity, these three;
but the greatest of these is
charity.

If thou hast but a little, be
not afraid to giUe according
to that little.
