President Calvin Coolidge’s reti¬
cence in the recent presidential
campaign lias set the politicans to
wondering. But they must be ra
minded that there are many old
proverbs that psoves the strength
of silence.
“Speech is silence; silence is
golden.” “Silent men, like still
waters, are deep and dangerous,
However it may be kept |in mind
that no unknown man can an
nounoe for president, retire into
isolation and be elected president,
or to any other office. 5 et it is as
Mr. Coolidge said “many men talk
themselves out of office.’
“Don’t speak”, says Emerson,
“what you are thuuders so loud 1
can’t hear what you say.”
}{ there is a man in the 9th con¬
gressional district who has his eyes
on Tom Beil’s seat, he had better
be careful. Two years ago I oin s
opponent died a tew' days after the
primary. In the recent primaty
Tom had opposition and now his
opponent is dead. It not only
means defeat to oppose l om, but
it looks like it means death also.—

The many readers of TheCburier
will be over-joyed when they read
tlie news story on the first page ot
this issue regarding the location of
a national park in the Great Smoky
mountains and the construction of
a national highway from Atlanta
leading into this park, which will
pass through Gainesville, Nacoo
cbee Valley. Helen, Robertstown
and Iliawassee.
Congressman Thus. M. Bell,who
has devoted considerable time to
the location of the national park in
Georgia, is to get the praise it the
project goes through. Since jj[lhe
park commission did not recom¬
mend that Georgia embrace the
park, Congressman Bell suggested
that the government build a na¬
tional highway leading into it, and
says that it should be illuminated.
Should the government build a
national highway leading into the
park, and there is much reason to
believe they will, in nil probability
they will give the tunnel and
illumination due consideration, as
it is such an attraction in itself.
Tiiis should awaken our people il
they are ever to be awakened. We
must give every possible aid and
support to this project, as it means
so much to our future development
The government will give Mr.
Bell’s plan careful consideration
and it is up to our people to do
everything in their power to assist
him.
The Courier is vttallv interested
in Mr. Bell’s plan and will be very
active in assisting him in anything
Co put it through.
Of course it is left up to Con
gross to pass on his plan and up
j»r 'prints rootle for the construc-
tion of this gigantic development,
but the congress fully realizes that
it would be such an added attrac¬
tion for people to visit the park. ^
The Courier believes this illu
minuted tunnel will be more at.-i
tractive than than the national
park. The valley, of
Iliawassee are unequalled any-f
where in the world. They are
rich in Indian legends, which is of j
great interest to the whole country,
