The club also plans to maintain a
stable of mountain ponies for use of
those who are fond of riding as a
sport. Vegetables for the table will
be grown on the property, it is said.
The fields of the tract will be set to
grass for use of the deer. It is pro

grouse, pheasants, partridge and other
game animals and birds. Wild life
already on the tract includes bear,
pheasants, quail, squirrel, o'possum,
coons, foxes, woodchucks and trout.
The cost of the non-resident hunting
license will be absorbed by the club,
the announcement states.
It is planned to keep the- lodge
open the year around. The game
laws of North Carolina, it is said, pro
vide for hunting-and fishing, in each
month of the year. The cold winters
of the North and the hot climate to
the South are calculated . to bring

the year. The club expects to have
temporary facilities for fishing ready
by next spring and the main lodge

bureau is expected to employ 20 to
30 men and women. The club will
have its own publicity organ which
will be printed by The Franklin Press.
The Press also has the contract to
print the Boosters, Journal, a pros
pectus of 200 pages, which will go
into detail concerning the develop
ment. It will contain many 'views',
of the mountains of the state.
A representative of theJNew York
and New Jersey interests states that
the lodge will provide excellent week
end accomodations for members and
guests from near-by Southern cities
such as Atlanta, Birmingham, Jack
sonville, Charleston and others'.' He .
estimates that if fifty percent of the
proposed membership takes advantage
of the club to make one visit per
season, there will be at least 300 dif
ferent visitors per month coming from
all sections of the South and, East to
the mountains of Western North Car
olina as a result of the, establishment
of the club.
The management also plans to build
an airport as close to the lodge as
ready for occupancy by the fall of the topography of the country will

the plans also embrace all features of
a country club so that wives of mem
bers and other invited guests may be
accommodated. The announcement
states taht the idea of the original
promoters of the project is to develop
in this mountain section something
that 'has rrever been undertaken be
fore and that is found nowhere else
in the United States. In this con
nection it is pointed out that a circle
with Franklin as the center and with
a radius of 600 miles will include
three-fourths of the populaton of the
Union. Two days by 'auto "'vi

The management plans to. provide
a unique service feature in the din
ing room of the lodge. A chef cap
able of preparing food shot in the
woods or caught in the streams as
well as the ordinary, menus will be
employed, thus -imitating closely -tfreT
plan followed in English sporting
clubs. The club will produce its own
power for lights by means of the
dam impounding the fifty-acre lake.
The entire tract will be laid out in
sections with a game and fire warden
in charge of each.. The wardens will
be provided with substantial cabins
which will also be' used as supply
bases for members who may wish to
remain out over night. Indian guides
will be available to members who are
not familiar with the boundary. These
guides will be provided free of charge
