THE BLAcTmOUNTAIN NEWS Operated by J. C. CORNELIUS and JOHN W. EALY PHONE 4101 Blue Ridge Is A Real Loboratory Os Christian Character 0 Blue Ridge has always been t closely associated with the Young Men’s Christian Association. How ever, in 1944 the YMCA’s of the ; South aquired the property and j assumed the leadership of this ! training center. For the past thirty-five yearsi we have been dedicated to the pro i ■ motion of religeous, educational ! and social thinking. With the en- i largement of scope and with the backing and direction of the j YMCA’s of the South, Blue Ridge j has become a veritable laboratory ! of Christian character and a force of far-reaching effect on the ideal pattern of life. Like the YMCA it is non-sectarian in its programs, and members of all faiths are cordi ally welcomed. While we have many organized groups we wish to stress the fact that we can accomodate individuals and families who desire a whole some atmosphere in whic to spend their vacations. Our programs are designed to attract all ages. We offer for the entertainment of our guests— lectures, seminars on current topics, musical pro grams by the Blue Ridge String Ensemble, moving pictures, etc. In addition many of the pro grams offered by the various con ferences are available. There will be many outstanding speakers of national renown throughout the summer for the entertainment of our guests. Blue Ridge is a place where everybody can find rest, recreation, inspiration—no jazz, no radio, no hurry, no bluster. It is quiet, peaceful, satisfying. The whole ! family from children to grand parents find what they want here. Choose your form of recreation and it is here. There is a splendid 9 hole golf course in Black Moun tain with a pro in charge. Tramp j ing the woods or riding horseback over entrancing mountain trails, will furnish a thrill. If inclined to recreate nearer homebase, there is a swimming, tennis, badminton, aerial dart, shuffle board, horse shoe pitching, roller skating for boys and girls, a playground with swings, seesaws and giant slides for children —all under the direc tion of competent and skilled lead ership. Also game rooms for ad ults and children. CARBON BLACK Carbon black, a sooty substance made by the combustion of na tural ga3 in a scanty supply of air, accounts for 25 per cent of the weight content of the tread of a modern rubber tire or about 27 per cent of the tread weight in a synthetic tire. Its tensile and reinforcing strength gives long life to rubber which ordinarly would last only about 3,000 miles. o Hiawatha was probably not a real person but a legendary hero of the Iroquois Indians.

HAIRR • ■»—'«» ■ m m m «■ m— «■■■ * Several McDowell county far mers are sowing legume hay by mowing their red clover this year. Among those who have cut and are cutting red clover for hay are: E B. Wright, Bertie Caldwell, Joe Swann and J. F. Mills. These far mers, who are cooperators of the Catawba Soil Conservation Dis trict, harvested good tonnage of fine hay per acre the first cut ting. Red clover works well in the crop rotation, and improves the soil by adding humus and nitrogen which will greatly increase the yeilds of corn and small grain on the farm. This being a close growing crop and a good cover it not only pro duces high yields of hay but it will help to protect the land from wash ing. Wm. E. McConnaughey, project leader, of the North Carolina De partment of Conservation and De velopement visited the Catawba Soil Conservation District last week. Mr. McConnaughey visited and checked a number of wildlife field borders in McDowell county on the following farms: Mrs. Ida Sprinkle, Lewin Westmorland, Joe Swan, T. E. Price, S. R. Cross and E. J. Bur gin. Mr. McConnaughey reports that the bicolor lespedeza and sericia lespedeza are growing nice ly in each of these borders I M Pi! mf* i I - - + | Guaranteed | + Radio Repairs % I + I Call for and delivery J | SERVICE | | -GOFF- j t RADIO SERVICE % T J t Opposite Post Office i t PHONE 4301 sn Stage Entrance: Sonja Henie is the newest of the "They Never Learn” parade.
