'ihe keynote speaker was Mr. Clyae Greenway, who heads the Community Improvement Pro gram in the Southeast for Sears Roebuck & Co. Mr. Greenway stressed the importance of c.ti zens of all localities, and parti cularly the tourist centers of Western N. C., knowing the ponts of interest in their town cr community, and doing a good selling job to people with whom they come in contact, particu larly the travel ng public. He said that on numerous occasions, when traveling through the towns and countryside he had stopped at filling statons and restaur ants, and made it a point to in quire of serv ee station employ ees, restaurant owners, wait resses, etc., the places of inter est in their town, and invar ably the answer would be “nothin'?", and in some instances he would be told he just as well travel on, , as there was noth'ng of interest around there this is face of the fact that there might be places of historic interest, na t:onal or state parks, beautiful scenery, etc. He said the public, and particularly people serving the public, should be better trained ; n this area, and should be enthusiastic about their town or countv and po all out to do a good selling iob; and that this was Dant’cularly true of West ern N. C , where tourism was bip business. We winder if Bur nsville could not a little educat'ng along this line. Card Os Thanks * J .
