ABSOLUTELY PURE
ALBERTVILLE, ALA.
Saud Mountain’s Thriving and Booming
Metropolis.
THE FISiST SECTIONS OF THE STATE
Its Busin* s", T. ople. Enterprises and
Hospitality—Two Leading Meichnnt.
and Th* ir Trade-
One of the finest sections of North
Alabama lies on the elevated plateau
of Sand Mountain. It is well watered,
well timpered, the lands are free and
easy of tillage, the health is perfect,
and both the air and water as pure as
can be found in any mountain region
on this globe.
For years this beautiful section of
country remained in comparative Ob
scurity,but a few energetic men finally
spied out the lands and found that like
Canaan of old it was a varitable re
gion, flowing with milk and honey.
Their success attracted the attention
of others, and the settlement of this
country followed with phenomenal
rapidity.
Beautiful farms are laid out with
tasteful and comfortable farm houses
built thereon, towns began to spring
up, and Albertville, the Metropolis of
North and East Alabama came into
existence.
The town is located cn a beautiful
plateau eleven hundred feet above the
sea level, and many beautiful public
bnildings and residences have been
constructed in the last few years.
Successful merchants have erected
substantial business houses and many
elegant residences have been located
in this embryo metropolis and its at
tractive suburbs.
One of the district public schools of
the state was located at Albertville a
few years ago., constituting another
attraction for those seeking homes in
a prosperous town There are churches
of the various denominations with
large and handsome buildings, and
the social status of the town is far su
perior to that of many more preten
tious localities.
There are quite a number of manu
facturing establishments, all of which
are flourishing, and Albertville en
joys an enormous trade among the
thriving farmers of the surrounding
section. The roads are built on nat
ural roadbeds, sothat communication
is easy and the merchants carrv such
apt o date stocks, sell at such reason
able prices and give such ample re
turns for all products brought to that
market, that it is small wonder that
the town has grown so rapidly,
FACTORS IN ITS PROGRESS,
Mr. L. S. Emmett is the oldest mer
chant in Albertville, and one of the
prime factors in its progress.
His right hand man is Mr. Thomas
B. McNaron. who has occupied the
position of book-keeper for Mr. Em
mett during the past five years. Mr.
McNaron came from Collinsville Ala.,
where he received a good common
school education, afterwards gradu
ating with honor from the Kentucky
university at Lexington, having taken
the full course in the business de
partment.
After coming to Albertville his ge
nial manners and fine business quali
fications soon won for him the respect
and esteem of all with whom he came
in contact.
He married the accomplished daugh
ter of Mr. Emmett, and settled down
to business in a beautiful home on one
of the principal streets of the town,
and since then his rise in the business
and social world has been very rapid.
He is one of the best equipped
young men in North Alabama, and
has been engaged in many of the most
important transactions that have
added to the wealth and prosperity of
his town. He enjoys a large acquaint
anceship throughput the whole coun
trj”, which hes been of vast advantage
io him in the consumation of his ex
tensive business transactions, and in
forming strong connections with other
important business concerns.
Besides being a most accomplished
book keeper, Mr. McNaron has made
a success in the hotel business,a large
amount of which is direct ly attributa
ble to the good taste and judgment of
his wife, who was Miss Lula Emmett.
She is a lady o' rare culture and re
finement. having taken a two years’
course in art in the seminary college
of Cleveland, Tenn., which added a

Mr. and Mrs. McNaron are very
happy’ in their beautiful home, and
welcome all strangers to stop at Al
benville with such cordiality as to

position of the people of that thriving
town.
Those in search of information re
garding Albertville and Sand Moun
tain can always learn all that they’
desire to know of its progress and of
the outlook of the country at large,
and of Albertville in particular, from
Mr. McNaron.
One of the men who has been largely
conducive to the growth and prosperity
of Albertville is Mr. J. L Chambers, a
thoroughbred Georgian who removed to
that thriving place some years ago from
Rome and soon identified himself thor
oughly with the advancement of the
town.
He was elected mayor and served
the people with the most satisfactory
efficiency and has ever been both as a
business man and official one of the
prime factors in the progress of Albert
ville.
He is a man of genial bearing, affa
ble and accomodating disposition and
impresses all strangers who visit the
place with a warm welcome that awaits
every one who visits Albertville.
He is engaged in the livery business
ana furnishes teams at the most reason
able rates for traveling men and pros
pectors who wish to take trips over the
beautiful roads that lead out in every
direction from the North Alabama me
tropolis.
In his large livery, feed aid sale
stable he keeps the very best stock aud
the most stylish turnouts and those
who patronize him may always be as
sured of the fairest treatment and the
most reasonable rates.
When you go to Albertville, and
every person who has not visited that
beautiful country should make it a
point to do so, call on Jack Chambers
and he will not only give you all the
information you want about the town
and the adjacent section but he will fit
you up with the means to pursue your
investigations by visiting the coal
mines, the ore banks, the timber lands,
and the magnificent farm and farm lands
that lie adjaesne to beautiful Albert
ville.
