•>¥«!nfTo me North Wilkesboro is a
Inviting town in which to
..ttfil and do business. The outly
ing districts all over Wilkes county
' ua noted for their natural attract-
sess, and I believe, when people
ome acquainted with our match-
^ less features, that this section
will have a great influx of tour^
ists. One of the many things that
delights me at North Wilkesboro
is the one hundred per cent Amer

town and country. Yes, sir: once

Material Was Established
46 Years Ago
Established forty-six years ago,
the Wilkesboro Manufacturing
company Is the plonqer building
material and lumber concern to
be found at North Wilkesboro.
There are families that have or
dered their material from this
organization through as many as
three generations. It bears a
splendid reputation for quality
material and genuine first-class
treatment extended to all cus
tomers. Employment is given to
a number of people, and the an
nual payroll and money spent
locally for lumber approximates
thousands of dollars annually.
The business is principally con
fined to North Wilkesboro and
its trading territory.
There is kept on hand a large
quantity of lumber to give first-
class service, and a delivery sys
tem through trucks that the
orders may be taken care of
promptly and efficiently. The
dry kiln is built of brick and
modern in every way. The busi
ness was originally located on
Reddies River, hut due to the
flood in 1916, the present loca
tion was chosen.
Mr. A. A. Finley, President
and Treasurer, is one of the best
known men in North Wilkesboro
and outlying communities. He is
also President of the Forest Fur
niture Company that furnishes
employment to a large number
of people, and Is a very Important
item in North Wilkesboro, es
pecially stimulating mercantile
activities, as the workers either
spend or bank their money at
this place. Mr. Finley is a native
of North Wilkesboro and enjoys
large circle of acquaintances.
He is a member of the Kiwanis
Club, and an Elder In the Pres
byterian church, and financially
interested in the Bank of North
Wilkesboro, being one of its vice
presidents. Among public spirit
ed people he is rated a distinct
asset to Wilkes County.
Mr. Finley was North Wllkes-
boro’s first Mayor.
Electrifying Farms
In spite of the depression, con
tinued progress has been made
in rural electrification. For ex
ample. the Alabama Power Com
pany recently announced that it
is spending $800,000 this year
for the extension of rural llnes^
which already serve more than
38,000 rural customers.
Except in rare instances the
“horse and buggy” age passed
from the farm with the advent of
the low-priced automobile, but
the "oil lamp’’ age still Ungers
on. Electricity, however, is rapid
ly changing that situation also.
Electricity will restore the at
tractiveness of the farm as a
place to live, and may well re
verse the farm-to-clty migration
that has gone on since the turn
of the century.
The farm home has many
natural advantages. It has the
fresh and clean air, the uncrowd
ed spaces, the fields and gar
dens and orchards that sustain
life and give health.
Given now by electricity the
common comforts of cities. In
cluding lights, hot watef, wash
ing machines and ironers, the
country dweller may yet become
the envy of urban cousins who
so long have pitied his lot.
When Edward MacDowell, the
eminent American composer,
died, a young contemporary of
limited ability wrote an elegy In
his honor, and played it for
Joseph Hoffman, the pianist.
When he finished Hoffman said:
“Quite nice: but don’t you think
It wo'uld have been better If you
had died and MacDowell 'had
written th® elegy?”
