As an indication of the tremendous interest in the opening of Highway 284 so apparent in Greenville, the fol lowing editorial that was published in The Greenville Piedmont on New Year's Day is significant. The Pied mont said: Greenville County and Transyl vania County, North Carolina, are linked more closely together now than ever before and it is meet that the development should be celebrated as it is being celebrated ? in fitting stylo at the in-between point of Caesar's Head today. Greenville offers to Transylvania a m.irket for its agricultural prod ucts, a conveniently-located large city to which the people of Brevard and ?f all Transylvania County may come for their amusements and for shopping. Transylvania on the other hand of fers to Greenville and to all the peo ple of the great territory the newly paved Brevard-Greenville highway opens up excellent and convenient mountain retreats that are destined to increase in summer popularity greatly in the next few years. Paving of the highway is the sig nal for today's celebration and it is to be hoped that the even will attract widespread attention throughout the section and that it will bring many additional visitors to both Greenville and Brevard in this new year and in the years to come. Congratulations to the chambers of commerce of this city and of Bre vard upon the holding of the celebra tion at the Head today. Then, on the morning following the celebration, The Greenville News had a splendid editorial statement, as follows: The celebration staged yesterday at Caesar's Head for the completion of jl modern, surfaced highway between Greenville and Brevard wf / an ex ?eptionally enjoyable mingling of citizens of the two communities in mutual felicitations over the attain ment of a goal which has for years been a primary objective of the peo ple of these adjoining counties. The highway is a remarkably fine piece of engineering construction throughout and evidences unusual road building skill, particularly in the manner in which it negotiates the difficult curves and grades necessary to an ascent to the Head. Greenville and Brevard have been v-losely associated for many years in joint efforts to promote better trans portation facilities between the two communities and gratification over the success of these efforts is unus ually great in both Greenville and. Transylvania counties. And now that we have the road, making Greenville and Brevard al most as close neighbors as Greenville and Spartanburg, it should be our de termination to use it to the utmost as a means of promoting commercial and social relationships between the two regions. The new highway can be made a most valuable agency in enhancing the prospers y of both communities, and we should overlook no opportunity to increase its value in that connection. These papers are published by Col. B. H. Peace, himself a gre; I lover of the mountains and long a good frTend of the people of Transylvania coun ty. Col. Peace and his sons, associat ed with him in the publication of The Piedmont and The News, owns prop erty in the mountains here and spend much of their time during the sum aier months in this section. Mr. Jud son Chapman, editor of The Pied mont, and Mr. Charles H. Garrison, city editor, are regular summer vis itors in Brevard. Many other mem bers of the staff of both The Pied mont and The Greenville News, and employes in other departments of the papers, also visit the mountains reg ularly. The people of Transylvania county appreciate the friendship of these fine men who are engaged in making Greenville's good newspapers. It is iittle wonder that the subscription lists of the Greenville papers are growing in this county. MR. SIMS STILL IN RACE Editor The Brevard News: My enemies are again circulating the report that I am not to be a can didate this year for the office of Sher iff. I wish all my friends and sup porters to know that I am a candi date, and ask that they pay no at tention whatever to any reports to tFke contrary.

SOCO GAP ENTRANCE (&vntbiu?d frovi ' ?t^) lished in order that the Soutb UUt , 1 ie East may have the nearest and , r oat feasible route into the Great f nokies. - ' .? *.. , le Value of Park ja From the time the parte project (. ./as assured until now, there has c i.aen no question as to the tremen- e :us value of such a park, not only ; r Western North Carolina but to ] so entire State. The creation of ( .e park, however, does not alto- c .ether assure the maximum of re- t .aid. Roads must be built at the t ..lost feasible points in order that ? s ie millions of people who will come ! j i ; this section may have easy and ' ,uick access to this new ployground. i i State Highway No. 284, connecting c the North Carolina line with the . .ewly built South Carolina road, ; urnishes an entrance to the moun- j ain country. Continuation of this j >.oad from Dellwood to Soco Gap and hence to Cherokee will furnish the ' 1 rarest and best entrance to the 1 , ark for visitors from the East and ! he South. Asheville as the largest < ^ity in this section of the State, will J aturally become the mecca city for < park visitors. From Asheville these s . isitors will demand a road into the i .-?art of the park. |i A look at the map will show that ' / impletion of the road to Soco Gap j ?:id thence to Cherokee will furnish ? he most direct route for the thou- j .nds who make Asheville headquar rs. From Highway No. 10 there will : five roads eventually leading into ( ?15 park territory. One of these will 1 j the road into the Robbinsville 1 ction and across the extreme 1 vestern part of the park. Two oth .'s will branch from No. 10, one at i .la and the other between Eia and 1 iylva furnishing a route to Chero-': ee and Smokemount and converging [ ?> meet the Tennessee highway at < 'he State line. These two roads will form a direct route into the heart of the park for that great concourse 1 of visitors who will come into this section from Georgia and points south by way of Murphy and Frank lin. No Real Problem When one considers the fact that 've miles of this road is. already :iles to be built, six of which is . aved with concrete, Jeaving only 14 heady a fair country road, it will J :adily be seen that the project will . "resent no real problem for the ghway department.
