Sales Service Offered
All business houses need sales
men. Some of them have several
salesmen. The most economical
salesman for any business here
is The Tryon Daily Bulletin. It
will approach several thousand
people and tell them about your
merchandise or service. No other
salesman can afford to work so
cheaply and do so much for what
you will be charged for its ser

The Tryon Garden club met
Wednesday at the home of Mrs.
George Canfield. The only shadow
on the afternoon was the report
by Mrs. Curtis of the terrible
forest fires raging in the Pisgah
Forest area, an inferno of de
struction covering over five thou
sand acres. It was a relief to
turn from that picture to the
lovely ones in very true colors of
gardens of Miss Ellen Holt in
Lake Forest, 111., and in Tryon.
The pictures were taken and
shown with great skill and an eye
for composition as well as color
by Miss Elizabeth Webster. Mrs.
Ralph Erskine shower interesting
views also in color, of her recent
trip to California. Every one
expressed the hope that all these
beautiful pictures will be shown
again where mof e of garden loving
Tryon can see them. A vote was
taken on the question of whether
to hold a flower show this year,
and a very simple exhibition was
decided upon, to be held in the
Lanier library on Saturday, May
2nd. The proceeds will be "donated
tov war activities. Watch the
Bulletin for further nptice.—rCont.
