Assembly Inn at Montreat is one of the most unusual and attractive ho tels in Western North Carolina. In common with var ious other Mon treat buildings, it is of native stone, with interior built of mica stone which gives a most un usual and beautiful effect. Assembly Inn is open the year around. Rates are surprisingly low. The Mountain Retreat association owns all the facil ities of the resort. Dr. J. Rupert Mc- Gregor is president of both the Asso ciation and Mon treat college, a four year school for girls which lays special emphasis on the training of Christian workers. 4 [ —Black Mountain (NC) NEW'S Thursday, May 27, 1 941 s SECTION 1 Black Mountain News Published Every Thursday in Black Mountain, N. C. Gordon H. Greenwood, Editor George W. Dougherty, Mech. Sup- Co-owners Entered as Second Class Matter Sept. 13, 1945, at the Post Office at Black. Mountain, N. C., under Act of March 3, 1879. C Os C Executives Attend Regional Institute Here More than seven million tourist.- came to North Carolina in 1947 and spent $80,000,000, state lead ers who attended the regional in stitute for chamber of commerce executives here last week were told. Morning sessions were held at the clubhouse and afternoon sessions at the Monte Vista. Although millions of tourists came to our state last year, mam remained for only three or four days. The reason given for this are poor food and accommodations, and indifference on the part of the residents. When folks cross the Mason and Dixon line they ex pect southern hospitality; instead, they are often taken for all we can get out of them, the speaker declared. The more than 60 executives who came from all parts of the state for the convention were high in their praise of Black Mountain and the entertainment arranged by Bob Eckles, secretary, and Charlie Spencer, president. Bob Guy, Mr. and Mrs. Crosby Adams, and Mrs. A. W. McDougle and the trio composed of Miss Sara .Mc- Dougle, Miss Doris Byrd, and Miss Madeline Fortune, came in for special commendation. Mis. Roy Taylor and Mrs. Al fred Tyson, Jr., acted as hostesses for the women guests who were entertained by Mr and Mrs. Cros by Adams of Montreat. Among the speakers heard were Harry J. Krusz, Winston-Salem, president of the state association, Thomas L. Carroll, personnel di rector of the Wachovia Bank and Trust company, and John Paul Lucas, Jr., head of the Duke Power company public relations department.
