The beautiful Gladys Inn,
Away from the city S noisy din;
Built on u lovely mountain peak,
Where cooling brcezes tan the cheek.
Jackson's River at its base
Meanders around the pretty place;
And mountain scenery. grand and nigh,

Come to the exquisite haven of rest
All ge folks from Eaat and West.
And battle your cheeks in the airy homo,
Where delightful zephyrs always roam.
The CUISINE is delicious-fiEc,
And selected from most every cline;
The rooms and beds are nice and clean,

Come ladies and gentlemen, from every where,
And enjoy the glorious mountain air,
Wh9ra everything is beautiful and bright,
And you will be greeted by the landlord, White.
