UROUHART HURT
ONLY SLIGHTLY,
REPORT TODAY

Guy Urquhart, proprietor of the
Motorcycle Garage on Main street,
was painfully injured Saturday night
when he met with an accident on the
San Diego Imperial Valley road while
On the way to the coast, where he
expected to spend week with his
parents.
urquhart was found unconscious on
the road and removed to the home of
his parents in San Diego, where he
did not recover consciousness until
Sunday night.
The nature of the accident could not
be learned, although it was reported
today that his injuries were not sri

in 1918. Backing them up were
Stroud, Schupp and Schauer-a trio
of mighty likely locking youngsters.
There was a hole at third base, Il
gaping one left by lilly Schafer's re
tirement. McGraw went out and
grabbed Hans Lobert, who batted .275
with the weak Phils the year before
and was listed as one of the fastest
men on the bases in the Tener cir
cult Lobert has fallen down woeful-
ly with McGraw's team. lie is bat
ting around .240 and his name isn't
even among the first ten base steal
ers. His fielding, too, has slumped.
McGraw freely blames his pitch
ers, and it seems he is justified. Mar
Guard, the eccentric, hasn't won half
his games. Matty the steady hasn't
won half his games. Tesreau has
barely managed to split fifty-fifty,
and the 3 youngsters have proved so
unsteady that McGraw has used them
only as relief hurlers.
McGraw, however, has awakened to
the fact that its time to begin house
cleaning, and has started by cutting
the supports under Fred Snodgrass
long one of his favorites. Rumor has
said that Chief Meyers and Rube
Marquard were slated for the hooks
Giant officials have denied this, but
its safe bet that if they don't pick
up in their work by the last of the
season there's going to be some new
talent floating around the Pole
Grounds. Sg z
McGraw also has crow to picl
with the umpires. John never was
original.
"The National League has seen the
rottenest umpiring in its history this
season." he said recently. "There is
but one competent umpire in tn,
Ieague-Bill Klein. With fair breal
in the umpirng, the Giants nigh
have flnlShed DeJtef.
George Burns is another player VIII,
has not delivered. Last year Burn
stole 81 bases and batted over 300
This year he is hitting the ball aroun,
.27O and has stolen less than twent,
bases.
Although Mac had a good ptchin,
staff at the start of the season, h
wasn't satisfied.
"If | had just one more good pitch
er, I'd be willing to ride" he opined
SO he went out and grabbed Pol
Perritt, who had been one of the bes
pitchers in the league the year be
fore, and Poll hasn't won half hi
games.

kept, making the city pleasant to the stroll
ler's eye. Along the broad sidewalk of Main
street wise officials have placed scores of
comfortable benches beneath the spreading
trees. Here the weary ones may rest. or the
socially inclined may gather for the ex-
change Of news and views.
Out from the city, in every direction run
roads, that lie like ribbons in patterns Of
green. More than hundred miles of roads
have been put in the very best condition in
Henderson county within the past year
Well laid-of, graded, and sanded these roads
afford hours of easy, comfortable driving
for every kind of vehicle. Many of them
are remarkable for the beautiful views they
afford, and not infrequently end at some
point of special interest to visitors. Among
these points may be mentioned:
Osceola lake, covering several acres OF
land, two miles; Kanuga lake, large body
of water is the Kanuga lake club colony, six
miles; st. John 's-in-the- Wilderness church,
with it's quaintness at Flat Rock, three miles,
Mount Hebron on which is high tower

country, six miles; Sugar Loaf the noun

daily for spending those lazy, unforgetable

The biggest problem of resort section is
not so much how to get visitors as it is how
to hold them once they are gotten So many.
resort towns have gone on the rocks because
they overlooked this point Most tourists
will try almost any place once But if they
do not find conditions 'fcongenial' = they pass
on-and do not come back again
Does Hendersonville get tourists and hold
themG She does. Hendersonville can lay
claim to having as many friends among a
desirable class of visitors as any city near
its size in America. Why9 Because the
wide awake citizens knew that to hold the
stranger within our gates they must make
the visitors stay as pleasant as is possible.

tors just as if each one were a favored guest.
