BELIEF IN ASHEVILLE
FOUNDATION OF CLUB
New Organization Will Ukdy Prove
Power for Good in City' Devel
opment. At the orgnnlsatlon of the Ashe
vllle Ad-Men', club Saturday, the
'credo" of the "Winston-Salem club
i waa rend, which met the general ap
proval of the local club. Substituting
Ashevill for, 'vyinston-Balom. the
credo read a follows:
I believe In Ashevllle. In the pre
eminence of het location IrT" "the,
Land of the Sky." In the
TieflUty and ' healthfulnese of
her hills. In the undevel
oped, unlimited power of her re;
sources. In the variety and maryelt
oua efficiency of her Industries. . In
the skill and InVentlve genius of her
workmen, the public spirit of her
business men. and the resulting pros
perity of her people.
I believe in North Carolina and
her mission In the glory of her past
and the greatnesa of her future
and I' believe that rthc same pirlt of
Guilford court 'house and King'
Moitntaln-th plrit that lavishly
have Its blood; brains' and money to
the upbuilding t. the country still
Uvea In North Carolina' son and
daughters and waJta only 'the word
to call all North Carolina to the still
greater thing befof e, uai .
T believe in the tremendou trans
forming power of optlmUm. I believe,
that It I lack of faith which cheek
the development of individuals, as
sociations and section. That skepti
cism I the only thing which stands
between the Old North Btate and
her great destiny. And that when the
pessimism Is transformed to optim
um North Csrollnii Will again take
her rightful place in 1 the vangunrd
of Industrial progress.
Therefore I am resolved that T will
avoid, and hnln other's to avoid nnd
escape from the deadening, demor
alising rut of rrlriclcm; skepticism
and Inertia. That T wlll.ne a booster,
not a knocker. And that T will ner
leet no opportunity to show 'my faith
hi )hf fntO'e nf North Carolina and
In Ahevlle and labor unceasingly
for Itr fulfillment.'
Tt is probable that the "credo" of
the Iocs! ors-nnlratlon will be pat
terned nfter that of Winston-Salem.
The club ns yet Is hardly In smooth
runnlna order, but ttte members hnve
the spirit which will make It a tell
ing power here In a very short time.
