PAOI TWO. THE ASHEVILLE GAZETTE-NEWS. Saturday, April 8, 1911. WEAVERV1LLE IS II STf r E EARLY Plans Are Being Formulated for the En tertainment of Visitors in Asheville and Weaverville. IMPROVED SERVICE PLANNED FOR THE WEAVERVILLE LINE riacea of Amusement Will Be Pro vided; a Lake Built, Etc. May be Hotel on Top of Craggy. Some of the more progressive peo ple of Weaverville are beginning to realize that it would lu a good plan to prepare for the entertainment of guests who may go to the Weaver ville community and the tourists and guests that stay in Asheville. They think that it would add to the pleas ure of the Asheville KUests as well us the Weaverville visitors it attractions are established at Weaverville a" that the Asheville visitors may run out for an hour or two and tlnd something lo interest them. Visitors went oul from Asheville last summer, they say, by the ear load and were heard to complain that there was nothing to see after tho made the trip. This is to he reme died and two or three agencies are at work on the plans for summer at tractions. Kor one thing the Ihinc, machine house is to he turned into some place of amusement, prohahly a dancing pavilion. Another, and h far the most Important, is the build ing of Lake Juanila, work on which will be;in Monday. II is planned lo make this lake resemble Tike Kyumi at Hendersonville. Besides the boat ing features it is to lie stocked with fish; the government has already been asked to furnish them. The ,dans for the lake scheme were told in de tail it day r two ago. An especial effort will lie made in have it road by the time the heavy summer travel begins. For tin- delectation of aiitomoldl Ists the handsome little restaurant building is hi be turned into a road house, il is said, and will be conduct ed by persons who know how to tar ry on such a house. The A. - K T. railroad ban alna.lv placed an order lor a lar:;e low ar. Which is expei led to gi here by tin middle ol Julio Tills ';il is an no prov, ni. nl on the Luxe double Iruck car that is now hoin operated and which kivcs such satisfaction. The company is grn rilled thai travel is steadily incractfing. Kven now on clear days, it is said that numbers of Asheville people aro making the trip to Weaverville. It is understood that there is to be a much fuller schedule on this road this summer. The ears will likely ron every rentr at certain times In the dav and a"t Will be run at ruKht tov'ded the attractions are estab lished for both the Weaverville peo ple coming here and the Asheville people going to Weaverville. A tact that in indicative of I he probable unprecedented inrush of tourists to the moaintains tins season is that the proprietor of Hula Springs hotel has had to add 1 .'. more rooms to his popular hostelry and that he has beivi forced by tl.e clamors ol" his patrons to open the season May I in stead of June 1. There is no doubt but that the tourist travel is growing and that it is seeking out new retreats even year, and it may not be s. very long before announcemenl is made of the building of a resort hotel on the top oi I'ragcy, and Macadam k'.od roiula will lead lo all mountains and othei places ol' interest. MOR MARS MERIT TIE THAT COUNTS Many have the idea that anytbin will sell ii advertised strong enough. This is a great mistake. True. :i few wiles might be made by advertising .111 absolutely worthless article, but il s only tin- article that is lin-nght again and again tlutt pays. An ex ample of the hi;; success of a ivoTthv article is the cnortii'Kii sab- that has grown up lor ('nscnivts Candy Ca tharlic. This wonderful record is the result of cicat merit successfully made known through persistent ad vertising and the itiouth-to-mouth recommendation civeii t'uscarels b its friends and users.

In the second game played yester day between the Catawba college baseball team and the Hingham team the latter was defeated by a acore of 17 to 15, making two straights for Catawba The game was poorly play ed ami poorly attended and the play ers plied up hita and errora to an almost unlimited extent. Considering the poor playing done by both sides It was a wonder that either aide was able to win. In fact, as one spectator remarked. Catawba Just happened to be In the lead when the game ended and It might lust as well have been HI n lawn. Hlnghams line-up waa changed from what It generally is but this did not seem to add any strength to the team. Iloth ultehcrs were pounded.
