Junaluska on the March
Welcome news to all in this area is that
the campaign to raise $600,000 for the expan
sion of Lake Junalusfca Assembly is
underway.
This entire section has been awaiting this
news with much interest since last summer.
It was last year that the board of trustees
of the Junaluska Assembly recommended the
general expansion program. The matter was
carried to conference, and' there a general
approval was made of the program and the
detailed plans. After that, the matter was
put back in the hands of the trustees to work
out the necessary machinery for raising the
money, and the execution of the program.
It appears that in Luther M. Wells, the
committee has a man who already assures
the program of success. It will be his task to
lead the campaign to raise the $600,000 for
the expansion program, which is broad, and
covers a general improvement, as well as
expansion program.
Among the projects is a $400,000 fire-proof
hotel, in addition to a $100,000 tourist motel,
with lesser amounts for improvements to
roads, bridges, and general beautification.
We expect that the Assembly will not be
long in realizing a handsome return on their
investment in the modern hotel. Neither do
we have any fear of their not making a good
return on their investment on any part of
the program.
Lake Junaluska is becoming better known
tar and wide, and as America takes to wheels
more each year, it only stands to reason that
a place with the reputation of Lake Juna
luska should get more than the average share
of this extra business.
This newspaper has no fear but that the
Methodists will soon reaoh their goals, and
have an assembly at Lake Junaluska that
will be unmatched in Eastern America.

Expanding Facilities
Town officials of Wavnesville are not wast
ing any time in getting water lines and other
facilities to the territories as the-.- become a
part of Wavnesville.
Last year when East Wavnesville became
a part of the town, it was only a matter of
Weeks before street lights and additional
water lines were installed.
Last week workmen finished installing' a
six-inch water line into the Dellwooc! read
area, which was taken into the town last
ipnmg.
Over on Pigeon Street, and Thomas Drive,
the street and water departments have made
several improvements, with a wider street,
and water and sewer lines.
According to town officials, they have al
leacly made arrangements with an engineer
to survey Aliens Creek for water lines and
fire hydrants. It is estimated the project will
cost between 15.000 and S 18.000.
It is expensive to extend water line-, when
.the pipe alone cost? well over SI Q per foot.
:But such installations are permanent, and
will take care of the needs of the people for
:inany. many years. Of course, once an instal
lation is completed, its value enhances with
;the years, instead of depreciating, as is the
.case with so many things.
Fishing Is a Course in Livin
A course in fishing is now bein
the University of Missouri.
At first thought, one might think that such
a course has no place in a college, when there
are so many things that appear to be much
more important.
A professor at the university. Dr. Chester
A. Brewster, an ardent fisherman, has given
the subject much study during the past
twenty years. He started the class in fishing
after making a survey of the alumni and
found that they spent their spare time fishing,
golfing and hunting. He also learned that
most men know absolutely nothing about
fishing until they are ready to retire.
So the classes were started, and students
are taught to cast plugs at targets on the L livei sit of North Carolina,
lawn, as well as the use of different flies! 'M'o'1 adopted by the ht.ard

The average fisherman will agree in every
