decorations at the automobile ball,

morning, "struck me as being about
the most effective had ever seen. l
imagine it will be long time before
they are equaled or surpassed in this

The decorations were designed by
Mr. Meyer. The work was done by
employees of Laurel Park estate, as
sisted by mapy willing and fair hands
of guests at Laurel Park Retreat
There were almost numberless wagon
loads of shrubbery from the estate
used-teams and men busy getting
them for ever two days. 1t was a
heap of work for few hours delight
but it contributed vastly. to the entire
success of the first automobile ball !.

made no charge for the use of the
pavilion nor for the rather heavy, cost

OFFICIAL TOUR JACKSONVILLE
AUTOMOBILE CLUB ASSURED.
+ Hundreds Of Wealthy Motor Enthusiasts.
to become Acquainted with the Swift
zerland Of America and thePossibilities
of its Principal Resort.

The great Glidden automobile tour,
this year from New York to Jackson
Vile, to be participated in by from 300
to 500 cars, is the one big annual au-
tomobile event of the United States.
Hendersonville has an excellent op-
portunity to secure part of this tour
next Fall, according to DR.. w. H.
Stinson, President of the Jacksonville
Automobile Club and recent purchaser
of Sugar Loaf Mountain.
This possibility is centering the at
tention of improved highway enthus-
lasts upon the necessity of building
the twelve mile ection Of road be-
tween Hendersonville and the Green
vile County line which now acts as a
effectual barrier to motor car traffic
from the South.
Dr.. W. NJ. Stinson, who with two
of his associates, recently purchased
Sugar Loaf Mountain with the ultf-
mate purpose of developing there a
club for. automobile owners only. is
naturally a good roads man. DR..
Stinson is president of the Jacksonville
Automobile Club and Chairman of the
Atlanta State Highway Association
a very much alive organization which
hopes to number ten thousand mem
bers by the time the next Florida leg
islature is convened.
DR.. StinSon believes that with the
highway to the Greenville County line
in good condition it will be entirely
feasible to get a part of the Glidden
tour through Hendersonville next Fall.
Should it prove SC, and even two hun
dred cars of the principal motor car
event of the year pass through this
county, local good roads men believe
it would be worth ten times the cost
of improving the. road which now acts
as barrier to their coming.
Western North Carolina, its noun
tains, it's wonderful climate, it's health
restoring waters. belongs as much to
the people of Florida it does to its
own citizen" says DR.. Stinson. Or
at least we people of Florida like to
think that it does-and more and more
of us are annually coming up and TAX
ing possession With this improved
highway to GreenYille we stand an
excellent chance to get part of the
great Glidden tour newt year and
feel sure the Jacksonville Automobile
Club will make an official tour to Hen
dersonville as soon as feasible-neXt
season, I hope if the new road is ready
by that time. I believe very large
number Of cars will make the tour
just how many i am not prepared to
say, now.
It has long been the argument of
good roads enthusiasts here that the
building of improved highways has a
very noticeable effect on the prosper
ity of the county traversed by the
roads. Dr. Stinson believes that
prosperity, progress and power. inyari-
ably follow IN the Wake of good roads
and cites instance after instance to
back his argument. He is. confident
that good roads in Henderson County
would he fo1Icwed bv increased fo7Ir-
lst traffic of at least 100 percent. and
co1sfaers them absolutely essential to
all resort communities.

This statement was made lSday by

Although the State election is one
year away" said Mr.. Sparks those
Interested in clean government in
South Carolina have commenced to
size up the various possibilities for
the Office of chief executive During
the past week a boom was launched
for Ira. B Jones and it is rapidly
gaining In momentum The sugges-
.tion of the name of Chief JGstice Jones
has met with general approval on the
part of the press and the STATE and
the decision of the distinguished jurist
is being awaited with interest"
Elected by Accident
G.. Ii Blease, the NeWberry county
man and presented chief executive cf
South Carolina was elected by acci-
dent in the opinion of Mr. Sparks.
He defeated G.. P. Featherstone of
Laurens, the prohibition candidate.
"The present governor" said Mr..
Sparks received his Office on the
liquor question. I do, not think that
the people of the State should be un-
duly excited. B1ease will receive at
least 10000 votes in every election,
no matter what act he might commit
This means that he received 10000
votes in the last election because of
his attitude toward the liquor ques-
ton. His record is too we'll known
to be discussed and if the proper man
is put forward re will defeat Bfease
by an overwhelming majority
The One Man
In the opinion of Mr.. Sparks Ira
B.. Jones is the man to oust the pre-
sent governor.
He, Ira B Jones is clean in public
and private ife.% said Mr.. Sparks.
HE is a scholar. a fearless man and
above all man without a long aoli-
tical career. He belongs to what s
known in the Palmetto State as "the
Tillman wing" yet he has the conf
dence of the conservatives.
Mr.. Sparks is of the opinion rnat
the people of South Carolina who are
opposed to "Bleaseism" should settle
upcn the man and eliminate a field Of
crippled or lame political ducks that
have been running for various offices
for the past score of years He said
that there was some talk of tho name
of John G. Richards, jr., member of
the railroad commission and a c.1e
time candidate for governor being
presented.
This Richards boom" said Mr.
Sparks" was given fresh impetus
the other day when Senator TilIman
paid a visit to the Liberty Hill hopn
Of MajcF Richards. However there
was no announcement from Libert~
Hill as the Jones boom had been
launched in the meantime Maj
Richards has so far refrained from
making any announcement as to' whe

After ALL said Mr.. Sparks, IRE
B. Jones is a man in every sense q
the word and he will make a most
acceptable chief executive
