There is an adage to the effect
-that every great institution is but the
lengthened shadow of a man This is
peculiarly true of the Appalachian
Scenic Highway.
Early in 1924, Mr. Ro.sc oe A. Mar
vel, owner-manager of Kenilworth
Inn, Asheville, N. C. president of the
Western North Carolina Motor Club,
president of the Cleveland-Marietta.
Asheville-Florida Highway, and officer
.in lerveral other highway associa
tions, set out to give Asheville better
highway connection to the North. In
the pursuit of this purpose, he spent
months of his own time, thousands
of dollars, tore up several cart, and
by person or proxy, explored thous
ands of miles of roads, ranging from
excellent to impoesrble.
As this work progressed, there grew
out of it, five highways, all of which
are now recognized by the National
Highway Association and .will appear
on this year's maps. Of these, by far
the most important is the Appalachian .
Scenic Highway, which has been left,
to the last for development- Its im
portance may be judged from the
fact that Mr. Chas. E. Davis, presi
dent of the National Highway Asso
ciation, is quoted as saying that it
will develop into the most popular and
bast' traveled highway in. Eastern
America.
Having its northern terminal at
.Quebec, Canada, the Appalachian
Scenic Highway runs almost due

Mighty oaks from little acorni grow.
So said the old time copy books.
Influential business concern often

dinky little country store.
From small store on Jonathan's
Creek at the mouth of Cove Creek has
grown the very respectable business

Cagle SM.
Mr. Cagle, the senior, was born and

Although raised on the farm far

Cagle in his early manhood ft'k tne
stirrings of. commercial instinets
Yielding to them he opened a liittle
store at the mouth of Cove Creek as
already mentioned, m 1897. His cap
ital was very small to start wit'i, but
he prospered from the very beginning
and continued to prosper there for IS
years.
In 1906 he moved to Clyde and
opened up in the stor.' huild.rg near

Two or three years ago Mr. '.."aR!
bought a fsS acre farm north of the

There lat.t summer he had a rather

first class in every respect. From
the front norch of this residence a
panorama of mountains may be ser
vtyed which in beauty and interest is
probably unsurpassed in the county.
Mr. Cagle's farm is all set in grass.
Three acres of it have a good stand
of alfalfa. This experiment with al
falfa is being watched with a good
deal of interett by Mr. Cagle'
neighbors.
