VOL. XXXIIL, No. 5
ASBESTOS BUZZING
.Iasi from the Mountains.
Mr. Roe Canuo. who is now
watchman at the A on ah mountain
tower, was passing Sunday.
The ram tor the last week has
been the largest since last May.
This {winter and next spring is
more than art to be very rainy.
The people have decided tor tlie
last few days that the world is not
drying up.
Eighteen or nineteen years ago
Sail got away with “Cotton-eyed
Joe.” It has been about that long
since they had a railroad meeting
in Cleveland.' Times were flush
then and money was plentiful. I he
road was to be a first class and
they were to run a first class train
on it. The object ot the meeting
w as to get up a large subscription
and if you failed to subscribe you
were compared to the lazy man.
lie was so lazy they put him in a
wagon and started out to sell him.
The first man offered to give some
corn for him. The lazy man asked
if it w ts shelled. They told him
they could soon -hell it lie told
them to drive on. The next offer¬
ed some meal tor him. lie asked
if it was ground. They told him
•“No.” Them he told them to
drive on. The next offered some
bread lor him. He asked “if it
Was baked.” They told him “no”
and then he told them to drive on.
T was told at this meeting that the
He|en saw mill would be running
forever. They were to go through
and cut out the salable timber and
begin where they started in. The
mill is now going away.
If you possess a sense of humor
it will help you over many a rough
place. The Jyoung lady teacher
had made a success with Iter first
school. The exhibition was
and the chairman of the board rose.
to give thejiianks to her and ex
pressed tlie desire that she would
return next year. One ot the
board had an old cow missing. {He
told the chairman to mention this
in his talk. The fellow couldn’t
hear well and he told him to say
that she had a wart on Iter left
and knocked iier knees together.
She thought they had a laugh
her expense and she woulde’t re¬
turn next year. Judge Dooley of
this state had this sense in a high
degree. He was holding court.
The land lady had heard of a whole
baked pig. Bo she prepared one
and stood him up in a plate in the
middle of the table with a red ap¬
ple in his mouth. So lie stood
there the first day, the second day
and on the third day Jupge Dooley
c ;tne in and said: “Good morn
ing, Mr. Pig, -nice nobody has
eaten you and you haven t eaten eaten
the apple, 1 take it for granted you
have lost your appetite. You are
now cismissed with the thanks of
the court.” Emory Speer could
soar high in wit. Some one told
liim to talk a little louder. He
said : “The eagie would spread
one wing over tile Pacific, the
other over the Atlantic and bathe
his head in Hudson Bay. Then
the angel Gabriel would step forth,
and say : “Time was tune is by
time would be no more. Then
some fool will say : “Holier a
little lou er.”
That old question, “Is marriage a
failure?*’ has lost sentimental signifl
canoe. The answer now depends on
ibp amount of money that can be col
lected.

Splendors revealed by ancient tombs
give evidence that taxpayers, even in
the remote past, had difficulty in Im¬

Atrocious Murder
On Mossy Greek
Sunday Might
One,of the most heinous
atrocious murder’s ever
certainly in i lie history of Whitt
county, was that of little
Clayton, n, at the home of hei
mother, AUs, Mamie Clayton,
Mossy Creek district, sometime
tween to o’clock Sunday night
daylight Monday morning.
Mrs, Mamie Clayton, the little
girl’s mother, and Willie Yates.
who spent the night in the room at
the home, were ordered by Corone
j. E. Henderson to be held with¬
out bail after the inquest held in
the home Monday night charged
with this awful murder.
The first indication of foul play
in the girl’s death came when W.
VV. Lothridge, who resides nearby,
was asked to assist in the prepara
tion of the child for burial. Mr.
Lothridge observed imprufts and
bruises on either side of the
throat and on her left side and Im¬
mediately come to town and re
ported to Sheriff Jackson, stating
that he jlid not believe she died
from natural denih.
Sheriff Jackson made
tion with Dr. Bulgin and
1 tie postponement of bural
notified Coroner J. E. Henderson,
who impaneled a jury at ti e home
Monday night, and which was ad¬
journed over unt il Tuesday
uoon, where tin investigation was
launched.
Evidence at this inquest shows
that the two elder son’s of
Clayton spent the bight at Mr. M
A. Stover’s and that her elder
daughter spent the night at Airs,
(Jarrie Lothridge’s therefore only
nret; small sons remu’ned at home,
together with little Lorene, Will
\ ates and Airs. Clayton, and that
they all remained in one room, ex
cept Lorene and two of her urotli
er ’ s w |to slept in closet be
a on t
n oor .
Positive evidence was produced
( [ la ( [(trie Lorene was apparently
U1 tip-top physical condition when
Will and Mrs. Clayton retired
around 12 Sunday night, and
when they arose she called Lorene
to get up and assist her in getting
breakfast, which was shortly after
daylight. Lorene carne out of the
closet, so states Bill and Mrs. Clay¬
ton, and asked for her sweater and
went to the bed and got in it,
Later groaning. Air-. Clayton
slates she went to the fieri and ask
e{ j t f she was sick and received no
reply and summoned Bill to bring
j, er some water and tried to revive
; lie child by rubbing tier with the
water about the face and neck.
The Coroner’s inquest show
that the child came to her death by
strangulation and bruises of
body,
So far nothing has developed as
to the motive of the girl’s killing.
Mrs. Clayton stated that (he
reason she did not summon medi¬
cal aid was that she It, id no one to

morning.

and the under clothing of Yates
was found in the Clayton home.

about the murder.

never was Fisher’s fine craftsmanship more
evident than in the bodies of the new Chev¬
rolet Six! They are roomier, more comfort¬
able, untl throughout exhibit that attention
to detail which is the basis of true quality.
Mechanically, too, the new Chevrolet Six ia
better. The wheelbase is longer. The frame
stronger. The steering easier. The clutch
more durable. There is a smoother, quieter
transmission. Wherever finer materials and
more advanced design could increase Chev¬
rolet quality and economy—improvement
has been made. The new Chevrolet Six is an
outstanding achievement—it is the Great
American Value!
