Chimney Rock, Jan. 18.—The big gest realty transfer of the year in Western North Carolina was an nounced Saturday. It involves the taking over of the Chimney Rock scenic properties by Chimney Rock Mountains, Incorporated, owners and developers of Lake Lure, the consid eration being in the neighborhood of $600,000 it is understood. The properties transferred include: the famous Chimney Rock described as America's most spectacular mono lith, which towers 315 feet above the automobile parking space on the mountainside; the unique Cliff Dwell ers Inn; the dining pavillion in the clouds; the Devil's Head; Hickory Nut Falls, with its sheer drop of 400 feet in its plunge of 1,700 feet to the Rocky Broad River; the Appian Way; Exclamation Point, so named by B. C. Forbes; the Needles Eye; Moonshiners Cave, and all the rights and easements belonging to the three-mile toll road from the j valley to the foot of Chimney Rock. Approximately 200 acres of the best located land in the Rocky Broad can yon is included in the transfer, DO acres of which adjoins other lands of the purchasing corporation, at an elevation of over 3,000 feet, all of it overlooking the basin of Lake Lure. Chimney Rock is famous in history. It is believed that it was from this point that Henry Clay made his famous and often quoted remark, "I am listening to the tread of oncoming millions." It was at this same pinacle that Christian Re id in a moment of inspiration declared of Western North Carolina, "This is the Land of the Sky," and so gave the region its accepted name. Dr. F. A. Sondley, famous North Carolina historian of Asheville, declares that unquestionably the first white men to gaze on Chimney Rock were DeSoto and his intrepid band oi adventurers on their way to the discovery of the Mississippi. The early English explorers and later the settlers of Tennessee and Ken tucky all wended their way through this gorge on their Westward march as did also the Indians who were being moved to the Oklahoma reservations. Hickory Nut Gorge, beginning at the foot of Chimney Rock Moun tain, has been for generations by far the most * traveled highway across the Blue Ridge Mountains, and today carries more than 1,000,- 000 persons a year according to the traffic count of the State High way Commission. Beginning at the bridge to Chim ney Rock is the Fairview High way Section of Route 20, just com pleted, the short route from Chim ney Rock to Asheville, declared to be the most beautiful scenic high way in the East. It was Dr. Lucius B. Morse, who came to Western North Carolina in search of health, who foresaw the possibilities of Chimney Rock as a scenic resort and twenty year s ago, with his brothers, pur chased the property for an amount of money which would seem to day ridiculous, but which at that time led the natives to pass the word from mouth to mouth that they believed the doctor "plumb crazy.'.' In 1916 the toll road from the Rocky Broad Valley to the foot of Chimney Rock a climb of more than 1,500 feet in a distance of three short miles, was financed by Dr. Morse and his brothers and completed, later additional develop ments such as the Cliff Dwellers, a Cottage hotel with twenty rooms, dining pavillion, stairways and other attractive and interesting acces sories were added and an in creasing number of visitors has year by year testified to the popu larity and lure of the spots. In 1925, more than 50,000 persons as cended the toll road it is under stood. Two million postcard views and snap shots of Chimney Rock have been disseminated by tourists all over the world every year. FINE BUSINESS LOT TO B. H. WILKINS The fine business lot of Mr. F. E.

White Fang, in the Jack London story, is the fiercest of a litter of wolf-dogs; his father a one-eyed, battle scarred wolf of unusual strength; his mother an intelligent wolf dog. He gets his name from his white fangs. White Fang be comes a terrific fighter, a savage, wicked, fearless beast, hated alike by man and animal, the hand of every man against him, the tooth of every beast. He asked no quarter he gave none; his only law being the law of his kind, —kill or be killed, and in all his battles White Fang did the killing.

WEDNESDAY, JAN. 27 Viola Dana, Theodore Roberts and i Raymond Griffith in "Forty Winks." ' Also two reel comedy. One of the most successful com edies of the stage has been brought to the screen with Viola Dana, The odore Roberts and Raymond Griffith in the leading roles—"Forty Winks," directed by Paul Iribe and Frank Urson from the stage success, "Lord Chumley," by David Belasco and [ Henry C. De Mille. The plot, while highly dramatic, furnishes one big laugh after an other. In the story fortification plans are stolen from the office safe of a young naval lieutenant. The theft is engineered by an attorney, thru a beautiful Oriental girl. He tells the boy's sister that he is in a posi tion to buy back the plans and save her brother's name but that it would look better if he did so as a member of the family. She promises to marry him if he recovers the papers. The real comedy and punch in the story is furnished by Lord jChumley, an insipid "Johnny" type of Englishman. He's in love with the girl. The interesting and only clue. ?. lady's garter; New York police, sub marines and burglars figure promi nently in the action. The climax occurs on a naval target out on the Atlantic ocean with the battle fleet blasting away at tar get practice with their big guns. "Forty Winks" is claimed to fur ; nish thrills galore and some of the richest comedy ever brought to the screen. • - THE FOREST CITY COURIER TAILORING OPENING rnmmmmm ______^^S^SSS!SmEE3SESm£■SlSll—T - "™" Forester Tailoring Co. 1 v *i j j Young men the Spring ■ line is full of new ] Opening their Spring fC !
