REALTV -OP!CS In old days a buyer would walk on the land v .Xh the own er, and when ready to trade, the owner would break off a twig" from a trr-e ;.nd say: by this token, I r.^re'iy pass this i land to you. T ~ r y 'rusted each other with ail gc.>1 will. A hap py deal v.'.as mac \ Toifay, "good will" seems to be a thing of the past, forgot ten and buried. Some peajle fear competition, '? a:i>us of the other fellow. I am r.'>t in com petition with anyone. Cora peti tion has never bothered me in my business. It stimulate-, it. Fair competition stimulate-; all business; brings in more pejpie where they can get service. More people would stop here i " we had more and better accom modations; yes, ten people to one before. I had rather bring you h ; i ness than take it away f.r 'rr. you. My past three years hsro backs up this statement. J rather like people, than "th . t" j that I don't like someone. !. / be we don't know the scov dl i what it is all about. If we :y knew people? But how man. o I us do? When a newcomer come to , town, looking around for il j estate, his first thought 3: | what kind of real estate r i\ do they have here? So in "ay of them have been badly han dled in big cities, they are I. op ing that they can find some one that knows his way around, and capable of helping them in their desires. If we can give this service, with kindness ar.d courtesy-plus, they right-a way like our town. If not, they get out of here in "high gear" looking for a "brighter and more progressive" place. You would do the same. With 30 years in. the business, handling about everyone from "tramps to millionaires", cranks to the "brilliant intelligent", I have a lot to learn, in know ing how to please them aM. We fellows that are in the busi ness, must think of this at aJt times, and not let them "pail' out of here" with a bad sc-ifc Impression of our town. Changes, are, they never come back. "* On a recent 250('-niifS trip through Georgia and all over Florida, it was interesting to note, and study the different towns. .Some of them ware "dull, dark and drab", others were "lighted, lively and lovely". I am sure most people are look ing for the "brighter progres sive" spots, to invest their money. Where property values will grow, instead of standing still, or go backwards. I passed some little towns that were "neglected graveyards". I never changed gears passing through, as thousands do. Franklin, North Carolina has the greatest possibilities of any little Mountain town that I know of, to become a "Beacon light" for the surrounding country to talk about. Let's paint up, have more "highlight ing", remodel and build more accommodations. Have no fear of competition: we will have more people than we ever had before. I am in position to hear some of them talk. Some people | ask me, what do they do here j for amusement? Let's take our "hats off" to the new "open air theater". That is an added at traction, that people notice when passing through. It will not take business away from other amusement places; it will | stimulate It, and make people more "show-minded". * OWEN C. FURLOW Franklin, N. C.
