Saturday of This Week Date
of Opening One of Fin
est Stations in State
Franklin Only Town West
of Asheville to Have Two
Standard Stations.
The Standard Oil company of New
Jersey Saturday will open its new
filling station on the Public Square.
The new station is said to be one
of the finest little plants in the
state.
The new station, with its attractive
exterior, presents quite a contrast to
the antiquated structures that stood
.on the northeast border of the square
a few weeks ago. The new' station
has been completed in a period of
about five weeks.
The station itself is, in the main
white, with a red Spanish tile roof.
The grounds around . are paved, the
paving stretching out into the street
oh each side. .,"'
Underground are the gas tank, with
a capacity of 3,000 gallons, and air,
sewer, water, oil, and other lines.
The station is attractive in every
particular, neat, clean, and extremely
convenient in arrangement. The drain
age arrnagement is in conformity
with the very latest design. The plant
represents . an investment, including
the lot, of approximately $20,000, .
Immediately work will start on a
similar station near the railroad sta
tion, where the bulk station is to be
built. Franklin will be the only
town west of Asheville v with two
Standard stations. They are under
stood to have been brought here
largely through the influence of J.
S. Conley, of the Joines Motor and
Tractor Company, Inc., local Standard
agents. Mr. Conley will be in charge
of the two retail and the bulk stations
here.
