The Tuxedo Club.

The Tuxedo Club is to be the very latest
exponent of that community plan of living
which has proved so highly successful in
the mountains of Western North Carolina.
The Club property is on the Southern Rail
way between Hendersonville and Saluda,
and fourteen passenger trains stop at its
station every day. The Asheville-Greenvile
and the Asheville S~partanburg automobile
highways touch the club boundaries-pass
through it, in fact, thus afording the club
members every modern transportation fa-
cility. =
From where you are standing. near the
summit of the mountain, and the site of the
clubs administration building, you see the
shimmering steel of the railway winding its
sinuous way to the North and the South.
The column of white smoke reveals its pas
sage for many miles and here and there
you catch a glimpse of the creeping train
itself. Yonder is the G~reenviIle automobile
highway and just this side is the highway
to Spartanburg.

A Superb Picture.

In the near, distance stands ridge after
ridge of forest covered mountains. Further
off many long miles away, but in this clear
atmosphere seemingly almost at hand. are
the most beautiful mountains in. the whole
universe. truly the ramparts of the world,
proudly rearing their cloud-crowned creSts to
a turquoise sky. It's a gorgeous panorama
of mountain scenery unsurpassed. lt'sbeau-
tiful beyond comprehend certainly must
be an inspiration to higher and better things.
The administration building of the Tux
edo Club is to be built IN a commanding
: eminence from which this picture is visible.

steep sides Of the, mountain to the Tuxedo

In the World, Not of the World.

And a home here means a home in the
great world and yet not of the world. The
members will have, on their own property,
most excellent hunting. fishing, boating,
bathing, mountain climbing. But a short
distance away there's the railway station or
two automobile highways leading into a
dozen Southern States. The Tuxedo Club
is in the primitive wilderness yet a few min
utes ride by motor or train lands its mem
bers in the very heart of the commercial
world.
The Tuxedo Club, then, briefly, is a COM
munity of congenial people spending a part
of each year in the mountains of Western
North Carolina. This community idea is ne
untried experiment. 1t is most signally sue
cessful and has solved a most vexatiouS
problem for thousands who would escape
the torrid heat of the far South.
Not for away, just across yonder range
in fact, the Methodist, the Baptist, the Pres
byterian churches and the Young Mems
Christian Association of the South gather by
the tens of thousands each Summer in COM
munities which they have built for that psr-
pose.
. The home of the Tuxedo Club is in the
very heart of nature undefled-a rugged,
monstrous mountain as wild, as rugged and
as wildly beautiful as the day the Indian
hunted the bear which made its home On
its slopes. 1t is, to repeat, Nature undefiled,
Nature in her grandest, most inspiring mood
and it is all very. very beautiful.

Y you are standing near the summit of a
rugged mountain-one of the Blue
Ridge Range, and 5000 feet above the
Atlantic, the highestpeaks East of the Rockies
gazing calmly towards you. tits a gigantic,
heaped-up mass, whose steep slopes are still
covered with virgin woods. You are in the
very heart of Nature undefled, for every
thing is as when the Indian hunted the bear
which once made its home here-and, to
tell the truth, it would not surprise you very
much to see the Indian!
This is the home of the Tuxedo Club.
The all pervading peace of the surrounding
mountain giants is as the peace of God; and
the cares. the m~asquerades. the shams of the
great cities almost within sight seem very
far off indeed.

THE PLAN AND PURPOSE
OF THE TUXEDO CLUB


We propose to convert this magnificent
tract of three hundred acres of land into u
of the most beautiful resorts to be found
anywhere.
We propose to sell 100 memberships ia
the Club for $3.50 each. payable $50 upon
signing application for membership and the
balance in monthly installments. of sic.
each.
These memberships will run for a period
of twelve years, and each member of the
Club and his family shall enjoy all the priv
less of the Club in its several departments
and shall be given a title to n building bot
on the Club estate.
We propose to erect with the money re-
ceived from the sale of memberships, "A mod
ern club house or a suitable location on the

The Home of the Red Man.

But the path to the Club House invites
you and in the solitude which closes in and
around you you seem to be lost in the pri-
meval woods of the red man. You instinct
lively look for the tracks Of a bear, but hear
only the >whirr of a monstrous coYey of
partridges.. The brooding peace resting on
the mountain giants keeping watch and
ward over the world soothes your soul and
God and Nature seems very close indeed
On you walk. You will pass numerous
pretty cottages. bungalows and more preten-
tious ~residences-the homes of discerning
people of refinement who appreciate the
rare charm of this natural beauty spot, and
almost before you know it you are at the
Club building.
And the Tuxedo Club is for people of
this class Congenial folks who know the
club colony orcommHRity plan Of living will
solve for them that always difficult prob
lem-"How and where shall / spend the

building is to stand-a great. roomy, home

families will be furnished board at actual
cost.
We propose for the protection of club
members and the protection of the entire

The Lake and Dam.

The path and roadway from the station
will lead across the ffty-foot dam which
is to hold the waters of a foaming mountain
torrent. The pretty lake thus formed will
cover many acres and will provide fishing,
boating and bathing for the Club members.
Electricity will be generated from the fall of
this water and this will be used in a thous-
and ways on the property-among them, to
operate a trolley car to the Club building.
But we will suppose you have just left
a Southern Railway train at the Tuxedo
Station. Or. perhaps. a motor car has
brought you. I'VE excellent roads, from
Asheville, Hendersonville Greenville or Spar
tanburg. At any rate, you are at the sta
ton, and perhaps you elect to walk to the
Club. You cross the broad, ffty-foot dam
and think what a pretty picture it all makes
The sloping sides of the gigantic mountain,
wooded to the waters edge; the row boats, the
launches, the merry cries of children bath
ing, the silent fishermen waiting so patiently
for a fight with the gamey fish with which
the lake is to be stocked.

prefer to walk from the station an inviting
