A meeting of the county chair¬
men of White, Lumpkin, Union
and Towns counties was held at
Moore’s camp Thursday, June n,
at 10 A._M., to discuss plans and
make arrangements for the mam¬
moth barbecue to be given near
Neel Gap on July 4.
Khe men have eharge of the
barbecue and met to go over
tails of handling the traffic on the
mountain, parking and other
things’pertaining to the ’cue.
With the generousness of “old
sol,” our splendid highway, en
hunting mountains and cool
1
breezes our county has each day
more people visiting, some only
passing through, while others re¬
main for a stay.
They all come with eager eyes to
see our wonderful grandeur, enjoy
our embracing climate, meet our
hospitable people and fatten on
our fried chicken and other country
products. So good people, it is
for us to make a lasting impression
on our visitors that will be at trac
tive and lure them into our (olds
again.
First impressions last longer.
Beauty is always appealing, but
it can be marred by eye-sores or
spoiled by untidiness. Then un¬
sightly tfiings should be cleared
away.
11 we are to attract these visitors
we must give them something ap¬
pealing. Nature lias so bounteoU|
ly blessed us. But nature’s beauties
may not be fully appreciated if we
*jire untidy about our homes, oui
ir Hid*in bud condition, our streets
net properly cared for, our busi¬
ness houses lacking a new coat of
paint, or the sanitation of the town
is in grave condition.
All these are of vital importance,
and they do attract the visitors.
The Courier wonders if White
county and Cleveland will have
all these requirements up to a
standard to attract our visitors. If
there is anything necessary we
certainly should should loose no
time in making them comely, at¬
tractive and comfortable, and hav¬
ing done so, it will attract brains
and business and prosperity which
otherwise would go to the large
cities.
The quinquennial census of ag¬
riculture for Towns county shows
that there is only 182 farms out -of
the 660 in that county operated by
tenants. They had 176 acres of
Irish potatoes last year and harvest¬
ed 12,336 bushels.
The big periodicals in this coun¬
ty published in the interest of the
newspapers state that brighter day
is before the country newspapers.
We trust that is true.
The country newspapers are
such an important factor in the
progress and development of any
community, Unfortunately some
people don’t appreciate this fact.
They are constantly laboring for
everything that is good for their
community. ....... 2
The The country count newspapers of this
country nnntrv have have been Been “hard hit” for
the past few years, and those that
have been able to withstand the
storm certainly deserve the whole
hearted support of every citizen in
that section the newspaper serves.
The Courier believes it will have
brighter day tor we see a brighter
day for this whole mountain sec¬
tion, and Cleveland, so splendidly
located, is bound to reap some
benefits.
E litor Milton Fleetwood,
t 'ortersville, seems to have been
particularly impressed with his
ride on the subway from New
York City to Jersey City with the
Georgia Press party on their recent
visit to Gotham, which evidently
was his first trip on these under¬
ground trains.
In his story he tells how to enter
the train from the street. Milton’s
story would have you believe that
it is easy fer any countryman go¬
ing to New New York and desir¬
ing to get that thrill, but we want
to call a halt for we have a differ
story, but we desire not* to relate
it. Anyway our first trip to New
York was crowded with thrills and
the trip on the subway was just
one of them. Our first experience
on New York’s subway is one that
we will never forget. To make
things a bit less embarrassing we
gave a negro a $1 bill to escort us
from 32nd street sucway station to
Hoboken. Yet it was well worth
it in experience. Milton
there with a number of people
who had a pretty fair knowledge
of New York, yet our first visit
we didn’t find a person we knew,
so we had to make the best of it
we could.
Any stranger Dan eaisly find his
way in the subways of Paris, but
ive wouldn’t tell you he could in
New York.

Mr. Roscoe Marvel, of Ahse
vlile, N. C., president of the Ap
palachatn Scenic Highway Associ¬
ation, an international highway
route from Quebec, Canada, to
New Orleans, La., was in Atlanta
recently attending a meeting with
prominent Atlantans in the Ansley

to bring Atlanta into the organiza¬

Mr. Marvel assured the Editor of
the Courier that Cleveland had
been definately selected for the per¬

executive committee of the Nacoo

meeting in Atlanta at the Ansley
Hotel, which he attended.
Mr, Marvel stated to The Editor
of The Courier that he was delight¬
ed with the splendid co-operation
his representative, Mr. Orr, who
was in Cleveland some weeks ago,
had been given by Cleveland’s
splendid and progressive citizens.
He further stated he hoped to be
be able to route some Florida tour¬
ist travel over this route this Fall.
It is said by men who have visit¬
ed every mountain country in the
world that this route will surpass
the scenery of any country.
Mr. Marvel is devoting his time
and money in order to bring this
wonderful scenic highway to the
notice and future travel of tourists,
and Cleveland is particular fortu¬
nate in being on the permanent
route, as you will see by the map
