BREVARD TO HAVE
AN IGE FACTORY
As stated in last issTje of the
News, J. S. Bromfieldr has decided
to start an iciS ^ct«^ here in the
near future. The plant will be
located in the Bromfield yard, not
far from the machine shop, and
close to the side track of the rail
road.
The ^lant will have a capacity of
five tons a>day. This will he am
ply su^cient to sui^ly lioth the
town of Brevard and, other points
in the county where the trade is
demanded. Lake Toxaway will
naturally come within the terri
tory, and the busy season there
will call for a large supply of ice.
Other places along the line, such as
Bosman, Cherryfleld, Pisgah For
est, Davidson River and Penrose
all make a greater or less demand
on the ice makers’ product, and
during the double train schedule
season can readily be supplied
from this place. . -
The installation of an ice .plant
here means one more step in Bre
vard’s industrial independence.
The trouble now is that Mr. Brom
field finds diflSculty in meeting the
demand for ice with the limited
snpply which he is able to get.
But aside from the advantage of
beipg able to furnish a single^com
modity every new facto’*y is a valu
able asset in its influence on the
industrial life of the town.
J. S. Bromfield has been engaged
here for several ^ears retailing ice
to consumers in connection with
drayage and other business. What
ever he puts his hand to seem^ sure
_(?/fuccess, Hift-anergy i« tireless
and his dealings with the public
are satisfactory. It' is safe to pre
dict success for this contemplated
enterprise.
E. F. Moffitt has the contract for
erecting the building, and will
probably begin work about the
first of September.
AN OPEN AIR WEDDING
Last Sunday two couples agreed
to go buggy riding in the after
noon, and at the time appointed
they set out in the direction of
Pisgah Forest. In the front buggy
were Miss Norma Glazener and
Elza Shipman; in the one behind,
Miss Ava Ashworth and Charles
Jollay. Not until they had. pro
ceeded some distance did the rear
couple even suspect that there'was
anything more ahead of them than
a Sunday afternoon’s drive. To
their great surprise those ahead
came to a stop, waited for the oth
ers, and requested them to be wit
nesses in the most important of all
ceremonies.
At Pine Grove church, about six
miles from Brevard, the two cou
ples came to a halt. There an
afternoon service for men only,
conducted by Rev. T. B. Jemison,
was just coming to a close. The
pastor. Rev. R. C. Kirk, was called
out, and arrangements were made
for the wedding. The bridal couple
sat in their buggy, the preacher
stood near, and about forty men
gathered around. In all the throng
only two ladies were present. Mr.
Kirk used the beautiful ceremony
of the Methodist church, and pro
nounced the words that made Elza
Shipman and Miss Norma Glazener
man and wife.
After the ceremony the party
niade a visit to Mr. Shisman’s
mother, who lives near Grange,
^nd then returned to Brevard. The
hride and groom took the 7:41 train
for Rosman, their future home-
^r. and Mrs. Shinman are. both
known in this place and in the
county, and have many friends who
be interested in learning cf
their marriage. Mr. Shipmen has
e^for several years in busiaess
X bosman. The bride is a daugh-
Cllazener of Rosman
^ sister of G. M. Glazener, who

sistants, who will discuss agricul
tural topics of interest and import
ance to. the farmers. In the after
noon a question box will be opened,

roundings, and kindred subjects.
The wives and daughters of the
farmers are invited and urged to
attend these meetings in larg^
numbers.
These institutes have been held
in previous years in this county
and their value has been fully dem
onstrated. They are held each year
in this and other counties through
out the state under the genej^l di
rection of Mr. T. B. Parker of the
state department of agriculture,
and in every instance they have
proven most beneficial.
The institutes will be held in the
court house and there will be no
charges whatever. Those who at
tend are asked to bring note books
and pencils to take notes. Every
body is urged to attend.
The following premiums will be
awarded.

HOSTS OF VISITOBS.
Brevard this year is proving to
be exceedingl;^ popular with visit
ors. The extreme hot wave which
has been spread oyer so many dif
ferent states during the past few
weeks bas driven thousands of peo
ple to seek the refreshing coolness
of the mountains of Western North
Carolina earliet in the season than
usual, and Breva/rd is getting a fair
share of the number.
# I
Already it is said tha6 there are
more strangers;.v^th us than there
was at any time during last season,
and every train is bringing more
andmore. •
In this connection Mr, C. M.
Boyle, the secretary of the Brevard
Board of Trade, desires that all the
hotels and hoarding-houses of the
town let him know at once the
number of guests which they can
still accosxiodate. He states that
he is^daily in receipt of requests
from vadous points ia the south
asking for information with' refer
ence to Brevard and accomodations
availal^e, and^in \oi;der to supply
definite «nd accurateyinformation
it is necessai^.that tSfee people here
who can accomodate visitors sh<tald
communicate with him.,
Every indication points to a rec
ord breaking crowd duriz^ the
present month. Other to^pis of
this section are all reporting un
precedented crowds for July, and
August will bring thousands in ad
dition. As a result of the energeli^
advertising campaign conducted by
the B9ani of Trade more peop^
this year know abocd: the advan
tages of Breyard than ever before,
and more will be* here in conse
quence. . *
Brevard is the ideal ,vacation
spot of the whole mouatalda section.
Itls the center of more points of
interest than any town in Western
North C^olina and offers as many
advantages for the comfort of
guests as any place, regardless of
size. There are here those things
which will attract visitors, not for
one season only hut for year aft^
year. l%e only thing necessary is
continued' and united' boesting of
^e place. Let evwybody pull tp-
gether.
PLEASING
AT FRAIWUN
One of the most delightful enter-
tainment3 of the season was en
joyed last Thursday evening by the
large and representative audience
which attended the reading ajD^
song recital given at the Franklin
Hotel^ by 5lrs. El^betE Dunbar
^Murray, of l^atclie^z, Miss. , and Miss
Marguerite Murton ^ybach. The
program presented was varied and,
artistieally re^er^, hol^ the.,tte object of the meeting, which
audience delighted throughout.
.Mrs. Murray is gifted with
an
unusually pleasing manner and de
li very,''and" has a keenly artistic
appreciation of the best points of
the characters which she presents.
She has the ability to throw her.
whole personality in a sympathetic"
manner into each of her readings,
fully bringing out the piathos^ and
humor of the different situations.
Her voice Jias a carrying powe;i
that was very effective in the lobby
of the hotel, and her manner at
once natural and forceful kept her
audience with her ^rou^ each of
t;he selections given. The humor
ous nuijibers made an especial hit
with the audience and she had to
respond to several encores.
The people of Breyard have heaird
Miss May bach before, bijt never to
better advantage than at this reci
tal. _ She has a contralto voice of
much power and pleasing tone, and
'nearly all of her numbers were
enthusiastically encored.. Though
stijlq,uite yoi\ng, MisS Maybach’s,
V0I& shows much training ' and
cuUiyatiott and gives-prornise of a
bright futur^ fo? iier in concert
■wbrl:?;" Her rendering p| the mo^
difi&cult numbers on the program
proved her ability, this being par
ticularly noticeable in her singing
of “Ave Maria.” The audience
was especially pleased with *‘A
Slumber Sea”, and the last number
of the program, “I Love You.”
To the last she responded with a
pretty “good-night” song.
' The entertaimaent was opened
with a pretty piano sold by Miss
Carter and the accompaniment of
the latter for the song numbers of
the program aided ipaterially to
ward the success of the evening.
The people of Brevard will learn
with regret that Miss May bach will
shortly leave for the north and the
people^here may not have another
opportunity^bf hearing her. ^

was to mature plans for the asso- •
ciation during the school year.
The question of stated tii^^t^or
regular times for ^e^jb'^s was,
brought up and caused considerable
discussion.
The plan adopted and followed
last year was recoimnended by the
superintendent. Last year there
were only two meetings of any im^^
portance, the first in October, the
second in .January. Instead of
meeting one Saturday in every
month, the association decided to ,
reduce the number bf meetings,
ane at each one have a session x>f
two da^ST - A few jof the teachers .
were opbsed to this plan on the
ground that it would give too many
holidays to the. pupils throughout
the county. After some discussion
ar vote was taken resulting in a
decision to meet on^ every two
months in a two days’ session.y
The supe:jintendent said he wouldf
urge the board of education to
make a ruling that the teachers
should not lose the salary of the
days absent from school.
. The date set for tfie firs-t meetmg
under this plan Js September 1-2.
M. £). Hardai^<^Ter .O]!S:^iii^,:Jfeli^-
Hattie Aiken were appointed as
committee to make out a program
for the meeting. The superintend
ent also expressed the hope that Jie
would be able to secure a good lec
turer to be present at that time.
The teachers elected for the pres
ent school year A. B. Riley Vi^e-
President, Miss Olivia; Whitmire
Secretary and Treasurer. Supt.
Henderson is ex offlcio President of
the association«
After detailed explanations of
the weekly report card to be used
by the teachers this year, Supt.
Henderson gave way to Mis^ Hattie
Aiken, who called the Betterment
Association to order, in the absence ,
Of the President, Mrs. Godfrey.
Miss Aiken urged on thQ teachers
the importance of organizing local
betterment societies in connection.,
with their schools.' She stated tha.t%
the Bettterment Association ot:
Brevard at its last meeting ded^edcf,.
to give a large North Carolina flag::
to the school in the county that, ,
makes the highest average attend—
