Tne Asnevuie Board of Trade sees to it that the city is well advertised, in every way, thro newspapers and booklets. Henderson ville has absolutely n advertising mat- tar of ftnr kind to distribute. In the opinion of many of our business men this is a serious mlstake.from which tne town will suffer. Every letter mailed i out by any business man here should contain some advertising matter about Hendzbsonvillx. TTndarsonville is undoubtedly the most attractive resort town in Western North Carolina. In many respects no other town can compare with it. It has rnr climatic advantages. It's lo- n.trn 1q iaaI.
