Here’s .just what can be seen by the discriminating motorist who en ters the "little gem among the hills in Transylvania county” if he en ters via the Hendersonville highway: Looking to the right as the crest of the little knoll is reached at the cross-street used as the entrance to the Brevard College grounds one can see a most magnificent earn, with its windows and doors rotten and looking just ready to fall down anti go boom if more than one big rat were to get on either the north or south side of the loft. Then as one reaches the f rench Broad intersection a most interest ing sight is open to view, a sight that gives an imaginative mind something to mull over and wonder about. Master pieces of what suie ly wore years and years ago, auto mobiles of the first order, testify in mute evidence of a flashy, smooth ly purring piece of machinery that in the days of yore undoubtedly, gave their owners worlds of pleas ure as the occupants of the then beautiful cars were whisked up the steep grades, around the breath taking curves, across beautiful val leys and bv sloping hillsides that culminated' into 'towering peaks, which helped give this section, trie name "Land of the Sky.” But the, .lavs of usefulness are gone for the. poor old autos that now tell the world that passes through Brevard that “they have fought a good fight, j Chest Colds Don't let them get a strangle hold..

Then the unwary traveler reaches Apple Tree street, which judging by its name, should soon be one of blossom and sweet smells, and prob ob'y would if some old pieces of stoves, multitudinous tin cans, fine pieces of paper and particles of clothing which at one time might have been the last touch that made one of the fair maidens of this beautiful little town look all the more sweet.
