The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1915-04-22

East a few days ago by his brother. Edward Miller, and is now at the lat ter's home in Bridgeport.
 The adjourned town meeting for the purpose of fixing the tax rate, on the last grand list will be held at o'clock on Saturday afternoon of this week at the town house. Previous to the meeting the se1ectmen hold their reg u1ar monthly session.
 Emory P. Sanford has been conf1n- ed to the house for a week or more with a severe attack of 1unbago. Librarian w. D. Grumman of the Mark Twain Library has been serious ly i'll with pneumonia, but is now in the conva1esoent stages.
 Employees of the Bridgeport Fly drau1ic Co.,, have moved into the house formerly occupied by Henry ing up work on the company's prop erty.
 w. E. Gorham and family have re- turned to their home on Sunset Hill, after spending the winter in New ork State.
 The debate on the European war at the Ridge gym last Friday evening at tracted large audience who listened with close attention during more than two hours of earnest oratory by the four speakers. D. s. Sanford in troduced the disputa1lts and timed | AAOo fixed for the contest. It would be difficult to say whether Herr Schoch and Otto Merke1, Germany's advo- cates or H.. G. McCollam and George L.. Fox, champions of the Allies, re- ceived the most cordial welcome or the heartiest applause. This indicat- ed the impartial and courteous tenn per of the auditors and was also a deserved tribute to the speakers.
 Herr Merkel of New York had a suave and ingratiating manner and an accent which was a beautiful compro- mise between Boston's choicest brand and that of the rest of the country. MT. Fox of New Haven was scathing- ly denunciatory. MT. McCo1lam re- viewed the events immediately pre- ceding the outbreak and deduced therefrom a verdict against Germany. Herr Schoch wound up by showing a large cartoon of his own production prophetic of what utas likely to hap pen if the Allies won.t showed our Atlantic coast menaced by an English fleet and the Pacific coast similarly l threatened bg a Japanese fleet. A paw of the Russian bear rested on Alaska, the Canadian wolf 1eered on our, Northern frontier while a, figure representing Mexico confronted a dis tressed Uncle Sam on the. South.

many unpleasant days and nights during the
winter season. No finer protection can be
found than is possessed by Hendersonville LII
its natural barrier of mountains. AS win.
ter resort it is bound to come into it's own for
this fact alone gives it marked advantage
over many other places.
It is a circumstance too well known to do
more than casually mention that the effect
of altitude is to lower Temperatures The
average annual temperature at Henderson
vile is from eight to ten degrees lower than.
at such places as Wilmington, Charleston,
Birmingham and New Orleans. Those who
have experienced the discomforts of high.
humid temperature can appreciate In full
what this fact means. The atmosphere is
light, and is freighted with that life-giving
element, ozone, created by the currents sof
air constantly moving from the higher .alti-
tudes hereabouts to the lower ones Of the
Piedmont section and the surrounding val
leys. %.#
When one considers the matter of climate
in the various parts of the United States,
Hendersonyi1le is obviously the best location
for the year round. The temperature here
is as near ideal as is possible to find any
where The average during the hottest
months for Hendersonville is about ~ de-
gress; while in the winter it is only about
SO degrees Thus Hendersonville' s summer
days are about nine degrees cooler than the
cities of the South, while figures show that
it's winter days are much warmer on the

The number Of cloudy days in the year
average for Hendersonville from twenty 10
sixty per cent less than the average for tbs
whole State-a remarkable showing. For
tunately fogs do not roll-up and choke the
atmosphere and cast a damper upon the
feelings Of all live things. Many and beau
tiful streams abound hereabouts, but none
Sc close as to befog the air at certain
seasons.
Taken the year around and viewed from
any angle, there is no exaggeration in saying
that there is no. better climate to be found
anywhere in America than in Henderson
county, North Carolina. Extremes of heat
and cold are unknown; pleasantly warm
days and cool nights are the rule for sum-
mer; moderately cold days with an abund.
anee of sunshine mark the winter months;
the absence of s'muggy" days, and low
humidity are salient climatic features;
normal and well distributed rainfall is re-
corded; afzaEeses essential which
must be had to make up an ideal climate, are
found here. .
And to this ideal climate Hendersonville,
the Peerless Resort City of Western North
Carolina, invites all alike; the home seeker
the health seeker, the tourist, the nature
lover, and all others who are in search of
that priceless gift, good health, among pleas
ant surroundings.

where summer and winter its climate makes
life joy and business pleasure.
The latitude of Hendersonville is between
35 and Sc degrees, NORTH assuring days and
nights of ideal proportions. With an eleva-
ton of 2250 feet the golden mean between
extremes of heat and cold, dryness and
dampness are provided. A higher and more
rarifed atmosphere often proves over-stim.
ulating to the visitor from the low-country,
and because of this and other disadvantages
attendant upon higher elevations, Hender-
sonville has proven herself to be the ideal
place for thousands of visitors each year.
The sudden and dangerous changes expe-
rienced at some other resorts are not part

hbriam of climate which robs it of it's terrors

Hendersonville' greatest asset is her won
derfu climate.
The home-seekers and the tourists can not
overlook the joys and advantages of region
where blue skies and soft, bracing air are the
rule Of the year.
The climatic requirements of resort sec
ton must always be pure, invigorating at
mosphere; IN equitable temperature, not
subject to sudden variations; and maxi
mum of tempered sunshine. HendersonVllle
has all of these It is possible to be out OF

contrary, there is uniform change each day

vile is saved from the discomforts of ex-

free from such condition. Sunstrokes are
unknown, and man and beast alike run small
