As to Annexing Rle-'chanlcsvlllo Mr. Far. : : What do, j, on think of the an nexation plan tut Mechanics ville to High Point? Resident We think that it would extent! to the residents of your village the benefits of every municipal convenience ' now enjoyed by High Point. It would. join you to the livest city in this, state, giving you a population of 14,000 in which you will share the large naturaf influx of new people and indus tries that are building High Point to greater demenisons fast mak ing it the largest industrial cen ter in the state. Such advantage arising from this annexation would accrue to you in tenfold giving you. the added prestige as a center for new life and pro gress. This is true because you would receive the benefits of the public utilities maintained by our mun icipality, arid in a number of oth er respects profit by a closer al liance with High Point. It would extend to a large por tion of your working population many benefits which it does not now enjoy and change ill-served suburban communities into ideal residence districts. In short it would boom your tovn! If you like your own suggestions get busy. Get your committee busy co-operating with the separate settlements in the worlj of gathering data as to population, assets, possible revenue and other items of infor mation, and we will submit your findings 16" the city council.
