would be adequate fur many years,
they are this week moving across
the street to a new home, and a
modernized plant with triple their
present capacity.
Mr. Pearce lias been in the re
tail bakery business since 1 0 1 I .
All of his baking experience has
been in shops small enough wlv r
every man had to work in every
department and make some of a
large variety of baked goods.
The owner of the bakery here
was in Canton for 18 months prior
to coming to Waynesville. At the
time he was in Canton, he was con
nected with another firm, and came
here to establish his own business.
Mrs. Pearce has had charge of
sales throughout their business
stay here, and has been assisted
by their two daughters, until' one
married and moved away. This
past week, Evelyn, entered West
ern Carolina Teachers College as
a freshman. The other daughter,
Mrs. D. II. Herndon, is living in
Baltimore.

vice.
ln addition to the bakery cases,
there is in the in w bakery, a dairy
products case for handling milk and
other items.
"Since milk and bakery products
are kindred and almost a necessity
to make every meal complete, we
decided to add the line as a con
venience to our growing list of cus
tomers, Mr. Paresaid.
Friday afternoon, at two o'clock,
will mark the formal opening of
'oarce's enlarged and modernized
open-view bakery on Main Street
here, iust opposite from their
pre-si nt local ion.
The new home of the bakery is
the result of many month's work
and planning on the part of Kobt.
H. Pearce, owner and manager in
consultation with bakery experts
an, sanitation engineers. The bak
ery has already received a 100 pel
cent state rating for sanitation.
ln addition to carrying a larger
variety, made possible because the
capacity of the plant has been
tripled, the new place will also
feature Pet Dairy Products.
Many items of new equipment
have been added during the past
few weeks, and in order to get the
plant in complete operation before
the opening, Mr. Pearce has been
starting one piece of equipment at
a time, and for the past 10 days has
had the plant in complete operation.
The firm closed yesterday, and
will remain closed until two o'clock
Friday afternoon, when the doors
swing open for their formal open
ing. Several specials will go on
sale both Friday and Saturday, the
owner announces in an advertise
ment in this newspaper.
Mr. Pearce supervises the bak
ing of every item turned out, and
it has to be up to his standard be
fore it goes on sale,
Mrs. Pearce is in charge of all
sales and special orders. She has
two assistants, and Mr. Pearce has
five working under him in the pro
duction department.
An expert baker who travels 22
states was here this week and rat
ed the local bakery as the finest
small retail bakery he had seen.
The "open-view" bakery is the new
est type. Customers are enabled
to see from one end of the bakery
to the other. All work is done in
full view of the customer.
N'flmerous traveling men who
work the baking trade have been
most complimentary about the lay
out here.
Mr. Pearce carefully weighs
every ingredient that, goes into his
baked goods. No guesses are per
mitted, lie uses nationally adver
tised lines of materials for ingred
ients, such as Softasilk Flour,
Shortening made by the Wesson
Oil people, and other items just
as well known.
