EXPRESS THANKS We wish to express our thanks and appreciation to all of our neighbors and friends for their many kind deeds and the lovely flowers during the illness and death of our mother, Mrs. Shelby Sneed. —The Sneed Family. SINGING AT BURGIN’S CHAPEL There will be a singing at Bur gin’s Chapel, Old Mitchell Toll road Sunday afternoon beginning at 2:30. All singers are cordially in vited to attend. mrmmm From page 1 n<Lw home that we had really r™, Jrom 'hen on we loved H more10"". am ,,lnd cvcr>body in v and more. Yes, our fam v and friends in New York thought we were crazy but they did not see what we saw — the future of this community as an ideal place for family living. And so in a few summers we turned our back on the big city and made our permanent home here and have we ever regretted it? Not a minute. Now our friends envy us as they come down to see us. You are so fortunate to live in a community like this.” That is what they say, and we agree Our children started right in to school here. It was not long before they wanted to keep up with the Joneses and thev begged not for a car, but to be allowed to go to school barefooted. “Every body's doing it, please let us.” So barefooted they went till the fourth grade I believe. The elementary school was of the best, for the teachers were so fine. Dear Mrs. Ashley headed the list. Never has there been a more outstanding teacher anywhere. Her influence was strongly felt on our five child ren. She may well be proud of the start she gave them for every one of them went thru college and took an advanced degree. Yes, that is what the Black Mountain schools did and are still doing, pre paring the children for successful living. To be sure they all left Black Mountain but that is life. All of them are proud of the fact that they have lived here and they all love to return. They still call Black Mountain home. We lived thru the depression here. We all walked. No one could get gas. We were all poor together and had fun. Broadway was like a ghost city. Come Sept ember not a soul could be seen anywhere around. Look at Broad way now. In the winter time it looks like mid-August. There is something that gets in to your blood if you have ever lived in Black Mountain. You want to come back. Ask Mr. Greenwood who went to Boston and then returned to do more for our town through his newspaper than almost any other man who has worked here. Down deep in his heart he knows why he came back, because he loves it here like the rest of us. I’d like to shout it from the highest peak. There is no other town in this country of ours finer to raise a family in, with its churches and its schools, its plan ned recreational program, and above all, its people. I know for we’ve done it. What we want are more families to come to Black Mountain to live. Let’s specialize on families. Mrs. Frank H. Richardson, “Hilltop”, Black Mountain, N. C. FINDS SHOPPING HERE EASY Swannanoa, North Carolina April 25, 1957 Dear Jack: I have been impressed with your editorials on “What Is Wrong With Black Mountain” and feel they will furnish food for thought —leading to action—on the part of all of us who live in and love the Swannanoa Valley. I’m glad to know you are pub lishing next a series on “What Is RIGHT With Black Mountain.” There are indeed many things “right” from which the town can take a starting point to correct what is “wrong.” Although I don’t live in Black Mountain, for the past three years I have been working there five days every week. “Shop Black Mountain First” has been a slogan I vc found easy to follow, and in almost every instance I’ve found the local merchants able to supply the items and services I need. Buy ing at home, from friends and neighbors, pays big dividends in personal consideration and service, too. Perhaps it might be helpful for the Black Mountain merchants to sponsor an all-out “Shop At Home” campaign to acquaint everyone with the quality and variety of goods and services they have to offer. A “Welcome Wagon” or similar plan might encourage new comers to get into the habit of shopping in Black Mountain. You and the News are serving the community in the best tra dition of journalism in calling at tention to problems and awakening the interest of your readers in finding solutions to those problems. With all good wishes, Mrs. S. D. Alexander Funeral Rites For Mrs. Glenn Funeral services for Mrs. Clyde Glenn of Grovemont were held Fri day morning, April 26, in the chap el of Harrison Funeral Home with the Rev. N. C.

The Wicker sisters have lots of interesting re- ■ latives. We remember when Helen Witherspoon taught the Junior < class at Mountain View. Mrs. ] Howard Willet still has and treas- ; ures a doll that was given her by i Helen’s mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Witherspoon, for the best attend- j ance in her class. Miss Catherine r Wicker taught our adult class for ' a long while. The Wickers have ; some lovely flowers in their garden now.

The Springiest Spring I his is a note to my readers away from home: Folks, you don’t know what you have missed by not having been home for the past several weeks. These abundant spring rains and cool weather, fol lowed by an extremely warm “spell” really brought out the blos soms. The dogwoods all over town and in the nearby woods outdid themselves. And this year a lot of people had tulip bed-s—beauti ful! Along the edge of the Ike Caplan’s drive was a multi-colored row that stopped traffic. Down in the Fred Bradley’s yard on Main street a clump of purple iris was in full bloom right under a blush ing dogwood tree—it looked like an illustration from a seed cata logue. In case some people won dered, that handsome clump of white blossoms on Bud Crawford’s east lawn is about the largest pomtatum in the country. Pom tatum belongs to the laurel and rhododendron family, and is the first of that family to bloom in the spring. Mrs. Roughton’s pink dogwood tree wasn’t pink, it was nearly red, and it was simply full of bloom. The alternate pink and white dogwood trees around the home of the Rev. and Mrs. A. C. Kennedy were probably seen and admired by more people than any other in the vicinity, because they are right opposite the school house. If we miss the so-called “black berry frost’’ which sometimes oc curs about the time blackberries are in bloom, we are going to en joy another bumper crop of fruits and berries, and will probably have plenty when you come home for your vacation. We miss you. Hur ry home!
