A POSSUM SUPPER.
"Long May It Wave."
Mr. William Stearns wishing to
test the advisability of having a large
''Persimmon Fed Possum Supper" at
the Library, gave a small supper out
at the Mimosa on Monday.
There are no doubts left in the
minds of those present, as the guests
will sirfack their lips over the past
until the future becomes the present.
The great question now is who is
the best 'Possum cook in Tryon.
At this writing there are four fat
fellows feeding on the top of the land
with all the hunters on the lookout
for more.
