ers describing the Packard bus

ing through Franklin, that rail
road companies are issuing illu
strated folders on Western North

ing to records.

Fairs. On June 18 a tour of Ko-
tarians is coming thfougli Frank
lin, and Mr. Bridgers pointed out
that it will be a good opportunity
for Franklin and the Rotarians to
play host. One-fifth of the tour
ists last year said they were on
their second or third trip to this
vacationland, which is not so ma
jestic as the Rockies, but more
friendly. Worldwide travelers have
said the most imposing view is the
panorama from Wayah Bald.
Town Improvement
According to Mr. Bridgers, tour
ists will not stay in a town with
dirty streets, unsightly vacant lots,
and above all, dirty rest rooms in
filling stations. Cordiality by the
citizens is also important. He com
plimented Franklin on the improve
ment in the appearance of Main
street during the past year, with
its new Ma,con Theatre ; Burrell's
Garage building," the fresh paint
on the buildings, such as the Dean,
house, Munday Hotel,, E. K. Cun
ningham, Reeves" Hardware, Frank
lin bank building, Macon Hard
ware, Sanders,' Cagle's Cafe; Pen
dergrass' Grocery; Kelly's Tea
Room and Gift Shop; and the Wil
lis': Apartments. The courthouse
and .several other buildings could
be . made more attractive with a
coat of paint, it was added.
The tourist business has just
started for this section of the
country and each year will see
greater demand for . more and bet
ter accommodations. The new in
formation booth on. Main street
was admired by Mr. Bridgers as
being a necessary forward step by
the Town of Franklin.
Bill Johnson, ofThe Franklin
Press, was welcomed as a new
member.
and Mrs. Claude Parrish of Swain,
last Sunday
Tommy, small son of Mr. and
Mrs. Paul Potts, who has been
critically ill, is much improved.
