An Auspicious Occasion and a Large Crowd in Attendance. . Dear Democrat: On last Saturday evening the people from all directions in the vicinity of West's Mills began to as semble at the Co wee school house to witness the closing exercises of the Co wee school, which has been under the control and management of Miss Maggie Morrison for the last two seasons. The weather being fine and the circumstances of rather an auspicious nature, every thing wTas conducively favorable to a large attendance and by the time that the shadows of evening had crept oyer the surrounding landscapes and wrapped old mother earth in their gentle but strong embrace tbe house a large and commodious one too was packed to its utmost capacity with a very attentive and appreciative audience except the veryfev ill-bred and drunken rakes that unwarily iiappei to gcQ ito u cor ner. The exercises, consisting for the most part of recitations, declamations and dialogues, opened at the ringing of the bell just at dark and closed after several hours of pleasant and . happy en jc yment. They wTere ai ranged " with great skill, and being of, a highly inter esting and entertaining character could not fail to captivate the entire audience. Some of them were impressively grand everything taken into consideration, and many of them deserve special mention and comment. The recitations "Poor House Man" and others by Miss Maggie Morrison were very impressively ren dered, and wpuld have been creditable to a theatrical stage. The music for the occtfsion, furnished by Messrs. James Corbin and Chas. Brownen, proved a very enjoyable feature of the exercises. The program was well- arranged and happily selected and wras in just keeping with the cultivated taste of Miss Morri son, who as a teacher abreast of these times of advancing civilization is al ways in ready demand ' and arousing success. The exercises and the credita ble manner in which the students ac quitted themselves told 'much to the credit of the teacher, pupils and commu nity, and showed bu; too plainly how deeply and well the foundations for in- tetyectualjjand moral culture and training had been laid. . The community acted only in keeping with the better dictates of wisdom by raising a subscription to continue the school for another session under the same management. If Miss Morrison can be kept as teacher Cowee will yet live to see brighter days. - Carlyle. 'West's Mills, N. C., Nov. 8. James P. Sawyer Has moved his carpets to the old "Asheville Club Rooms," No. 49 SouthJ Main street, which are located over the Richmond and Danville railroad offices and S. R. Kepler's store.

Lookin Backward Over the past eight years of our successful business life in Ashe ville has demonstrated to ns the fact that our determination to sell only pure goods, guarantee ing weights and quality, and asking a small profit on every thing sold, commends itself to the good sense of purchasers. Second, That desirable cus tomers cannot be gained by the oft-tried practice of some deal ers in cutting prices on a few leading articles, hoping to make it up on something else. That hard work and close ap plication to business is the price of success. That our business for 1889 shows an increase over the pre vious year of 20 per cent., which is very gratifying, and for which we wish to thanl our many friends in Asheville and Western North Carolina. Lookin, Forward We are encouraged to enter up on the year before us with re newed energy and a determina tion to give our customers the benefit of ouij increased facili ties for buying and selling the very finest goods to be had, at small profits. - - Our stock is now the largest ever offered in this market and embraces everything in the line of Staple andFancy Groceries, Table Delicacies, Fruits, Grain, Flour, etc. Respectfully, , Powell & Snider.
