THE FOREST CITY COURIER
S.C. MAN IS ELECTED
TO LAKE LURE BOARD
Mr. J. A. Carroll, Of Gaff
ney, Accepts Place On
Board Of Directors.
Spartanburg, May 7. —J. A. Car
roll, prominent manufacturer, bank
er and philanthropist, of Gaffney, S.
C., has accepted a place on the Board
of Directors of Chimney Rock Moun
tains, Inc., according to an announce
ment by officials of the company here
today at the newly opened offices in
the Cleveland Hotel Building. Mr.
Carroll has not only become interest
ed in a substantial financial way, but
intends to take an active interest in
the general affairs of the company.
"Since a boy I have watched with
keenest interest the growth and de
velopment of all of Western Caro
lina, but particularly of Chimney
Rock," said Mr. Carroll, in speaking
of his election to the directorate of
the big development company. "Cer
tainly there is no more beautiful spot
on earth, than that embraced in the
properties of this company, and the
creation of Lake Lure with its
twenty-seven mile shore line, in the
matchless setting of great mountains,
will provide a lake resort of size and
beauty not surpassed on this conti
i nent. lam looking forward with a
great deal of satisfaction to the time
I expect to spend at Chimney Rock
while the development is going for
ward."
Mr. Carroll is the first South Caro
linian to join hands officially with the
men of the North State who are
backing the Chimney Rock develop
ment, and whose directorate includes
some of the most prominent business
and professional men in the South.
The proximity of this section to
Western North Carolina, and the in
creasing trend of tourist travel to
the "Land of the Sky", much of
which is through South Carolina, has
wrought an ever growing interest
here in the big developments which
are going forward near Asheville.
Chimney Rock Mountains, Inc., is al
ready well represented in the state
through R. M. Marshall and Bro. of
Charleston, and Jos. Norwood, of
Columbia, and with the announce
ment of the election of Mr. Carroll
and the opening of Spartanburg of-
fices, it is anticipated that the inter
est of South Carolinians generally
will be adequately served.
Mr. Carroll is the president of
Limestone Mills, president of the Car
roll-Byers Co., the Carroll Grocery
Co., and the O. P. C. stores, vice
president of the First National Bank
of GarFney, and a director of the
American State Bank, the Gaffney
Manufacturing Co., the Hamrick,
Broad River,' Musgrove and Alma
Mills, and a trustee of Limestone Col
lege. Intensely interested in higher
education, for many years devoted to
the interests of the college and active
in the direction of its affairs, Mr.
Carroll recently established the Car
roll School of Fine Arts, and do
nated a building to house this depart
ment, costing fifty thousand dollars.
The building which is modern in
every particular, is now nearing
completion, and is said to be one of
the finest of its kind in the South.
HARRISNEWS
Forest City, R-l, May 11. —The
play: "A Microbe of Love" advertis
ed by the Federated Home Demon
stration Clubs to be given at Harris,
on Saturday, May 9th, could not bo
secured to the regret of all concerned.
However Mr. Peeler of the Mt.
Pleasant section with his usual spirit
of generosity volunteered to bring
his inimitable minstrels "The Med»-
more Boys." The cast consisted of
Mr. Peeler, his son, Mr. Adalaide
Peeler, Messrs. Ralph Elmore Yates
and Ciyde Holland, Glen Toms and
clarke Matheny. The excellent rep
resentation of the carefree, loafing
darkey was highly applau/rtded by
the appreciative audience. From the
first act through the last the house
was in ah uproar of laughter and ap
plause.
Excellent music was furnished by
the Jenkins String Band.
These talented musicians are al
ways well received.
Readings given during the evening
by Misses Rose Eaves, Josephine
Young and Mable Rollins added ma
terially to the merits of the program.
After the entertainment refresh
ments, consisting of delicious sand
wiches, cake and iced tea were serv
ed to those taking part in the pro
gram by the Harris Home Makers
Club. The net proceeds of the en
tertainment amounted to $17.25 and
will be applied to the fund for the
purchase of an Edison for the County
Home.
Tom Tarheel says the life of an
expert must be a hard one because he
is always expected to make some big
change.

Entire Damaged By Fire.

Rutherford County camp of Confed
erate veterans met at the courthouse

called to order by Commander K. J.
Carpenter. Chaplain Rev. J. B. Carp
enter led in prayer after which the
roll was called by Adj. O. C. Erwin,

Home Damaged By Fire.
The home of K. H. McEntire was
damaged by fire Friday night about
9:30. Fire was discovered by neigh
bors and the alarm turned in. Mr.
and Mrs. McEntire were at Union
Mills having left the house about six
o'clock and the doors and windows
were securely fastened. This of
course kept smoke and fire in and
made it almost impossible for any one
to get inside to bring out the furni
ture after the door had been broken
open. Everything in the pantry,
kitchen and dining room was a com
plete wreck and furniture in the oth
er rooms damaged by smoke, heat and
water. There have been various the
ories advanced as to the origin of the
fire which evidently started in the
pantry and the general impression
is that it must have been caused
from a defective electric wire. There
was some insurance but the loss falls
heavily on Mr. and Mrs. McEntire
• who had just recently moved into and
furnished their home.
To Open Tea Room.
On Friday afternoon and evening,
I May 15, Mrs. R. W. Logan will open
a tea room at her residence on Wash
ington street near the City Hall. To
this formal opening a few friends in
( Rutherforaton and nearby towns
: have been invited. Beginning Sat
urday, the 16th, the tea room will
: be open to the public, and will no
i doubt prove an attractive place for
! ladies and girls to entertain their
; friends, clubs and parties. Iced
i drinks, sandwiches, salads, ice cream
| and sweets will be served.
' The invited guests will be request-
Sed to suggest a name for the tea
room and the one selected will be
1 announced later.
Mr. J. G. Carver, a confederate
i veteran, who lives near here, who *s
j 80 years of age fell a few days ago
jand broke his leg near the hip. He
! was carried to the home of his son

IS EVERY DAY A
BACKACHE DAY?
! .
Forest City Folks Have Found the
Cause and Corrected It.
Is your back lame and achy? Are
you tortured with sharp, rheumatic
pains; miserable with headaches, diz
zy spells and kidney irregularities?
No wonder, then, you feel worn-out
and discouraged. But have you giv
en any thought to your kidneys? You
should! Weak kidneys cause just such
troubles. Don't risk neglect! Use
Doan's Pills—a stimulant diuretic to
the kidneys. Here's a Forest City
case:
A. W. Lavender, agent Watkin's
Products, Arlington Ave., says: "My
back hurt and ached right across my
kidneys and I got so I couldn't do any
work at all. Those sharp, stabbing
pains in my back were almost more
than I could stand. I had to get up
a good deal at night to pass the kid
ney secretions, but they were always
scanty. After using two boxes of
Doan's Pills, I was cured.'*
