Last week the writer spent a few days in Waynesville and Asheville. He enjoyed a brief stay in these popular mountain resorts, as he al ways does. It 6een8 like getting back home to him when he pets to Asheville, where his boyhood (fcivs were spent. As yet the influx of summer visi tors had not begun and neither town was crowded. Only the advance guard had arrived. Asheville was entertaining the annual conventions of the North Carolina Bankers As sociation and, the Southern Textile Association, the attendance on the two totalling several hundred, but even with these the entertaining capacity of the town was not in the least taxed. Asheville has come to be the convention city of the South. Already this season she has enter tained nine and there are many more scheduled for the summer. The largest convention held there so far this season was the Southern Bap tist Convention, recently held. At Asheville we saw two former Gas- tonians, Kay Dixon, who is making good decidedly as a trusted officer of the American National Bank, ana Bob Currence, who Is doing the same thing as cashier of the Southern State Bank, an institution whicn serves the railroad men of Ashe ville largely, being focated near the Southern depot, Kay was as busy as a bee, having his hands full as chairman of the local committee or entertainment for the bankers' con vention. Wajnesville At waynesville the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias was in ses sion. They convened Tuesday night and adjourned Thursday afternoon mere were about 200 representa tives of subordinate lodges in at tendance. They come from the coast and from the extreme western part of the State, every county and almost every town of any size in the State being represented. . Many of those from the coastal plains had never been in the mountains before YOrR BOWEL8 SHOULD MOVE OXCE A 1AY. A free easy movement of the bow els every day is a sign of good health lr.

They were Mqjply "carried away" when they stood on Eagle's Nest and beheld the vast sweep of mountain peaks to be seen in every direction. Gastonia got some splendid adver tising at Weynesville. For one thing the Gastonia Pythian Lodge made the best showing for the year of any lodge in the State. For this she came in for some nio6t compli mentary remarks from Grand Chan cellor Baird, the presiding omcer and other grand lodge officers. Then there was the Gastonia Pythian Drum Corps, the best in the State. Composed of tweaty-odd members, all in handsome new scarlet and white uniforms, it attracted atten tion and favorable comment on every hand. The boys made the trip in a special Pullman provided for them and two long banners, one on eacn side of the car, advertised Gastonia to all the people who saw the car between Gastonia and Waynesville. They led the Dokie parade Wednes day afternoon through the streets of Waynesville and took a conspicu ous part, both as a body and individ ually, in the ceremonies Wednesday night. Too much about a fraternal order, however, may weary the reader. We cannot pass to something else, however, without making mention of the splendid manner in which tne Weynesville people entertained the visiting Pythians. On the opening night, in the graded school auditori um, a most excellent program was furnished by local talent. The music was especially fine. Miss Josephine Gilmer, the young North Carolina girl, daughter of Gen. and Mrs. R. D. Gilmer, who is coming into promi nence as a grand opera singer, favored the audience with a popu lar selection and was called back re peatedly. A quartet composed or Mr. and Mrs. J. Dale Stentz, Mr. T. J. Davis and Miss Gilmer, ren dered several splendid selections. Several addresses of welcome were delivered to which Grand Chancellor Baird responded. Delicious refresh ments were served at the dose of the program. Thursday afternoon the delegates were iven an auto riae to ine Junaluska, the magnitkient assem bly grounds of the Southern Metho dist church. They were given also a most delightful boat ride on the 240-acre lake on the Oonagusta and a reception at the summer home or Mr. C. H. Weathefby, a prominent Methodist layman. Great inmprove- ments are being made this summer at Lake Junaluska. Two modern hotels are being erected and will be ready for occupancy within the next few weeks. One of them, the largest occupies a commanding eminence directly across the lake from the railway station. It has 150 rooms and is being built at a cost of $40,- 000 by the Lake Junaluska Hotel Company. The other is a 0-room hotel near the big auditoaium and ia being built by a Virginia Company headed by Rev. James Cannon, Jr. The Public Service building, near the auditorium, is being finished on the interior and will henceforth be a much more attractive and com fortable place. It is generally cou ceded that the Methodist have here a national location for an assembly place unsurpassed in the country The next five years will no doubt see it very greatly enlarged and im proved. Preparations are being made to take care this summer or the. largest crowds that have ever visited Junaluska. It is a place weii worth going to see. whether you are a Metnoaisi or not. A liig Industry. One of the features of a trip to Western North Carolina is or should be a visit to the plant of the Champion Fiber Company at Can ton. This town is ten miles east or Wavnesville and about -'00 west or Asheville. A party of about 100 Pythians went down from Waynes ville to Canton early Thursday morn ing in response to a very cordial in vltation from Mr. D. J. Kerr, one of the superintendents of the plant wno is also a prominent and enthuslas tic Pythian. Two hours was spent looking through this plant, said to be one of the largest pulp mills in the world. So Immense is it thai in the space of two hours nothing could be accomplished save a rapid trip through, affording an opportun ity only for the most superficial in- snection of the many wonderiui Drocesses there carried out. Some idea of the immensity oi this mill may be had by the reader when he is told that every day, six days in the week, there goes into the maws of this plant from "oo to i0 cords of wood daily. One thousand men are employed, many of them skilled laborers getting good wages. In operating the thirty enormous boilers 400 tons or coal is consumed daily besides a large quantity of shavings, -"chips. etc. One ton or sulphur is usea dailv in the bleaching process, i he product is about 250 tons per day. Of this amount only 1 to 20 tons is a finished product, being a very heavy wrapping paper made from the pulp which in the process of cooking is left with flaws in it. The main product of 230 tons or more daily is a fine quality of pulp made into thick sheets somewhat like blotter and put up in large rolls. In this shape it is shipped to the finishing mills where it is used in manufacturing fine papers, card boards, etc. It is re-ground there and mixed with rags for the making of fine bond papers and other high grade pulp products. No detailed description or the workings of this plant could possibly be given by a layman, even after a WHEN' YOU HAVK A COLl Give it attention, avoid exposure, be regular and careful of your diet, al so commence taking Dr. King's Xew Discovery.
