This town needs m airplane Land ing. There are in this nation now no lea* than 3000 privately owned air plane* and they can go to no place where there ia not a suitable landing. ThU Mk the machine that ran hero from Winston came to do business with oar people and the owner waa anxious te take oar folks for a ride and our folks-so mo of them, were an xious to get rid of their money ia this way. But the landing at the Fair Grounds waa so unsatisfactory that it was not practical to try to carry op passengers. Nothing waa t4e mat ter futher than that the land was soft to that degree that the wheels of the airplane sunk down into the ground and made it difficult either to land or make a start. If a good Held for landing should be prepared here it ia only a question of a short time until machines from other parts of the country will be making our city frequent visits. Let the Merchants Association get busy and have this field prepared.

Tha fans contained it aersa and waa divided op into eleven tracts and sold to the highest bidder. The entire farm brought $108 an acre and waa bought by men who will move to their new purchaeee, develop it, build a new home and lira near a school and en • good rend. Five citi zens who live in other sections will move to Wktto Plains as the result of this one land Mia. Mr. Ball says that there ia a strong tendency an the part of eitiseas in the back lections of this and other caan ties to sell oat and move nearer to town and schools and own leee larnl - von if K dee* cost them mors aonty per acre. All of which shows that oar people are waking up to the value of good ■chools and other modem convenience. Mt. Airy iwl Eastern Railway Again ia Operation S it will be 3-kmI i.' Wi u 'he serti. a of country North of this citv to know that the Mount Airy and Kaatern Railway will again be in operation it. a few days for the general public. Mr. William R. Cornelias, of Pittsburg, Penn.. has for several months had a force of men at work practically re building the road and it is now shoot ready far being opened up for general traffic. Mr. Cornelius has bought the tim ber on ten thousand acres land and in the country at the end of thie read and he has a lease on the road for a long period of time. He ie a business man of moons and ia ia position to not only make his enterprise a success but will be a great factor in the de veloping of the country where he wilt operate. Since the railroad has been out of business s large lection of country has been greatly handicapped, for there are no good reads In that section and the people had long been accustomed to the use of the railroad. There are no better peep jo living than a large aiajority of those who '•ve along Mount Airy and Eastern lino. But the country has also a scall awsg population, just aa other sec tions have, and thia dont—care set has always annoyed the management -f thia road more or Iqaa. We aug gest to the good people in that sec tion of the country that they get busy snd try to assist the manager in protecting his property and ma king it aafe from the de^wedatlona of the criminal and the thoaghtleee.
