"Historic City of the Old South'' took home a good re port of Brevard. The Chamber of Commerce register contains the names of thirty-four visitors from Charleston, S. C., and doubtless there were more who did not have an op portunity to visit the Chamber of Commerce office. Many of those who did register remarked of the progress being made here in civic improvements and general growth as a tourist center and expressed a desire to return next year. Mr. J. Gilmore Smith, President of the Charleston Board of Trade, in a let ter to the Chamber of Commerce, asks that one hundred copies of the Brevard booklet be sent to their or ganization for distribution through the Publicity Halls of that institu tion. Such a request coming at this season would indicate an interest in Brevard and not to engage the at tention of those who would plan a vacation. Othei- cities which have recently requisitioned quantities of Brevard i booklets are: Indianapolis, Ind., Cin cinnati, Ohio, Alton, 111., Bunker Hill, #I11., Edwardsville, 111., Granite I City, 111., Greenville, 111., Jerseyvilk:, III., Roxana, 111., Staunton, Hi., and Wood River, 111.

Many Cities | to be Visited In response to invitations ex tended by cities in Canada and throughout the North and East, the Asheville .Chamber of Commerce or ganized the Third Goodwill Tour of this year. W. E. Breese represents the Brevard Chamber of Commerce and left on Tuesday night with other representatives of civic and industrial interests of Western North Carolina. The date set for return is October 10th. One hun dred and twenty-five reservations, were made for the Goodwill Tour ists, all of which were quickly taken by those to whom the tour was available. Some last minute appli cations for space on the special could not be accommodated. The "Land of the Sky Special" with five chartered Pullmans, diners, a club car, an observation car and a baggage car provided luxurious accommodations for the tourists, meals and entertainment being in cluded in reservations for the round trip of twelve days duration. Indications are that the weather will be favorable and a delightfully in teresting trip is anticipated. The itinerary includes the fol lowing cities: Harrisburg, Pa., the state capital of Pennsylvania; Buf falo, N. Y., shipping and manufac turing center of the Great Lakes; Niagara Falls, N. Y., where a visit to the illuminated falls at night is planned ? this is the greatest elec trical spectacle in America; Hamil ton, Ontario, Canada, a large manu facturing center and lake port of considerable importance; Toronto, Canada, the Provincial capital of Ontario; Ottawa, Canada, the place of official residence of the governor general and location of the Parlia ment buildings; Montreal, Canada, the largest Provincial French city of Canada; Quebec, Canada, the on ly walled city on the American con tinent; Portland, Maine, possessing one of the depest Atlantic ports; Boston, Mass., seaport and manu facturing center; Hartford, Conn., banking and insurance center; New York City, greatest and most diver sified city in the world and Phila delphia, Penn., the site of the Ses qui-Centennial Exposition. The route includes territory from which many winter visitors are drawn and it is the object of the Chamber of Commerce in having a representative on the tour, to give greater publicity to Brevard than has been attempted before in the* northern territory, in effort to cre ate a longer season for this com munity. During the past two weeks the office of the Chamber of Commerce has been busy preparing publicity material for distribution in connec tion with the Goodwill Tour. Twelve hundred and fifty Brevard booklets are being mailed to a se lected list of business and profes sional men in the several cities on route that have arranged programs for entertainment of the tourists and most of the persons to whom lit erature is being sent are particular ly interested in the Asheville tour. In addition to this publicity, two thousand pieces of advertising mat ter and Brevard booklets were taken on the special train for general dis tribution along the route. Packets of news stories and clippings of Bre vard were made up for fifty-four newspapers in the cities through which the special train will operate, to expedite the handling of public ity matter in the cities visited. The Brevard scenic film was taken on the tour and arrangements will be made for exhibition of the pic ture in as many cities as is possible during the short periods the touristi will remain in the respective cities. Taking everything into considers tion, representation on the Third j Annual Goodwill Tour is the most pretentious publicity campaign un dertaken this year by Brevard. The Asheville Chamber of Commerce contributed a portion of the ex pense of the representative from Brevard, the balance being under written by the following individuals: Thos. H. Shipman, H. A. PIummers R. R. Fisher, Lewis P. Hamlin, W. E. Breese, W.' McK. Fetzer, F. D Clement, Dr. E. S. English, Mayo; T. W.* Whitmire, S. M. Macfie, R. E. THE PRAYER CORNER THE HELMET OF SALVATION THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT Read Ephesians 6:17. "Then comes the helmet of salva tion." "Salvation will be appointed for walls and bulwarks," said the old prophet. When one is safe in Christ, | one is sheltered. No evil can touch us if we are near Christ. Your life is hid with Christ in God. I | And now for the offensive armour. Take the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. All other parts of the armour are for defense. There is something for every part of the body, but the back. This sug gests that the Christian soldier should never turn his back to the enemy, for his back is unprotected. | The only weapon for active, ag gressive fighting is the sword. It is called the Sword of the Spirit,- be cause the Spirit gives it its .sharp ness and power to thrust into men's hearts. Jesus Himself gives us an | object lesson for the use of the sword: when He met the Tempter He pierced him with texts of Scrip ture. We should learn to use the Sword of the Spirit in the same way. A Word of God will drive away the enemies. A Prayer for the Helmet of Salva tion and the Sword of the Spirit I Almighty God and Father, in whom alone is safety, help us to put on the Helmet of Salvation, for didst Thou not say by Thy prophet that Thou wouldst appoint Salvation for walls and bulwarks. Christ is our Salvation, safe in Christ we are sheltered. No evil can touch us if we are near Him. Our life is hid with Christ in Thee. ! A helmet covers the soldiers head; covers our head, for are we not Thy soldiers and His. And does not the Helmet mean here a confidence in Christ's work wrought in us? A good hope of salvation through our dear Lord's work guards us frori des pair, encourages us to JijrK on.. What weapon of our adverr .y '-an hurt us if we have hope ?-f Divine mercy? Above all, enable us to like the Sword of the Spirit, which is Thy Word, for Thy Word is a ?S ?> ?r
