To have ( a comfortable and attractive one is her ut | most desire. A happy home is man's dear ? est possession, too. The thought of home | comfort follows him all through the day % time working hours, cheering and encourag ! ing. The new home needn't be luxurious or expensive to be com fortable, artistic and hospitable, if one plans and selects cor rectly. 'Ample time given to the choosing of good furniture is well repaid, because furniture is a life-time possession. There is permanent value in sound quality, and permanent beauty in good design-both are to be found in all the furni ture we sell. WHOLESALE KKTAIL The Wonder Furniture Co.

Tourist Camps Njcessity In Polk louft.y Towns If We Get Our Share of Vast Expenditure ot Gash. Tourist will ton out in full force this summer and every town in Polk County could well afford t0 maintain a tourist camp for the accommoda tion of motor-tourists. The installation of water lines, electric liKhtx, and clearing of suit able spacw for the erection of tents is a prime requisite. Ashevllle has one of the finest camps in this section and it has paid interest on the investment. I lender son vi lie recently opened such a camp Towns all over the country are doing thivj and Tryon, Saluda and Columbus should follow suit. 'file magnitude of the sun spent annually by motorists is staggering. Thomas P. Henry, President of the American Automobile Association says: "A nation wide survey of the tour ing possibilities of the 1925 season indicates that the swelling tide of long distance automobile touring will reach unprecedented proportions this year, according to a forecast issued by the American Automobile Associa tion. The 1925 crop of motor tour ists will be worth 12,500,000,000 to the thousand and one communities lo cated along the playgrounds of the nation, and along the highways and trails leading to the centers of nin tor tourist traffic. The figures used in the forecast are conservative, and art- based on data supplied by pivotal sections of the country where the business of catering to motor tourist traffic has been placed on a dependable basis. The demand for .touring information and facilities and the preparation al , ready made for the season all go to indicate that previous records will be broken. Florida's harvest of tourist Kold is estimated at $500,000,000; California is making preparation for a milion motor tourist this season, with uIho a half million dollars as Its goal; the northwest, with Colorado as tile gateway <>r the region, will run a .second to them. The ubov,. statement from the president of tin* American Automo bile Association. indicates the amount of money the automobile loiuifij will spen-l along The Trail Highway i during the present year. There aru 17 1-2 million automobiles in t he United States and the major ity of the owners of these cars plan a lour sometime during the year. Will Polk County do anything to get its share of ihis money? Voeml Uncle John If our folks moved to Para dise with nothin' much to do, they'd wiggle, waggle, fuss an' squirm to start up somethin' new; It seems that satisfaction has about forsook our race, ? we try to act new-fangled, every time we wash our lace. We've got to have "progresaive ness" in church as well as state ? I know a fool that's tryin' to fetch the Bible up to date! Bill Jiggers bought hisself a watch, in town the other day, she must-a been a good one fer the price he had to pay ? but Bill kept foolin' with it ? he was sure she needed grease ? hex carbureter flooded, ? at last she rests in peace! There's many a good thing ruined by an over zealous botch, and put clean out of business, same as Billy Jig gers watch. The shortest route to misery, experience proves to me ? is to monkey with conditions that's as good as they can be. 1 u. o Ci rea.''

Father of Well Known Tryonite. James Vernor, Jr. of Detroit has long been a part-time resident of Tryon, Mrs. Vernor spending the ral ger portion of the year at their hand some country place in the Pacolet Valley. A recen^ editorial in the Detroit Free-Tress regarding the nameing of the Vernor Highway in honor of Mr. Vernor's father will doubtless prove of interest to the friends of the fam ily in Polk County. A gracious tribute to a man who deserves well of Detroit was paid by the Common Council when it voted t() rechristen the Dix-High-Waterloo thoroughfare. Vernor Highway, in | honor of James Vernor. Mr. Vernor is an integral part of I Detroit. He helped the city grow. I After three years service in the Civil ( War he returned to Detroit and pio i neered i& the City's development. ! He established a drug store at Wood j ward avenue and Clifford street, a | daring venture in those days, and for j four years, he says the business I hardly paid expenses. When he was 46 years old he was j elected alderman from he Second i ward, running "because sewage fac I ilitics in Woodward avenue were in j ? ; I adequate." As alderman he succeed ed in having them made adequate ! That was characteristic of his publi ? career. To Detroiters of this general ion. Mr. Vernor is probably best known for his devotion to the cause <*i ; lie ownership of the street i. He opposed every move < f II,. j.
