The ascent of Mount Mitchell
by rail has only been possible for
some months. Formerly it re-
quired a three days journey,
horseback and afoot, and was
too strenuous to be undertaken
except by the most hardy and
vigorous. Now that it can be
performed in comparative COM
fort and with a minimum amount
of exertion, we believe that
many thousands will avail then
selves of this opportunity to see
the scenery, whichlobservers who
have seen both declare to sur
pass in beauty even that of the
far famed Alps.
Leaving comparisons asid,
Mount Mitchell's rugged grand
eur, the vast sweep Of the
view from its summit over
wooded peak and mountain
range, are worth a thousand
times the time and the energy a
trip to its summit requires.

For the Good Of All

The most eloquent thing that
can be said of this community $
enterprise and the devotion OF
its citizens to the work OF eleyat
ing and promoting its best inter
ests, is contained in the simple
announcement that over one
hundred of our citizens have
made the return of Chautalqua
here next year a possibility.
These citizens have knowing
ly entered into an agreement
whereby it is impossible for them
to realize any pecunlary benefit
whatever and extremely pro-
bable that they will suffer some
pecuniary loss. They are doing
this because they think that
Chautauqua is a good thing for
the community. Whenever a
person obligates himself to pay
out real money to advance, not
his own, but the interests of his
community, then you may feel
sure that that person has at
heart the best interests of his
community.
Soft words butter no par
ships" and good wishes build up
no community. You have to do
things to get results and the
Chautauqua guarantors both for
this year and for next year have
shown that their civic pride
stands higher than their pocket
books and these men certainly
deserve the gratitude of the
community at large.

The ascent of Mount Mitchell

of North and South Carolina.
The universal impression was
one of amazement from the time
the little logging tran left the
Montreal grounds until it
had laboriously gained the sum
nit of Mitchell's Ridge, the
highest railway station in Ameri-
ca.
An ever-shifting panorama of
magnificent scenery, changing
as the ascent was continued,
from the wondrously beautiful
to the majestic and sublime as
peak after peak slipped down
and the horizon ever widened
The trip to Mitchell's Ridge of
fers three hours of constantly ac-
centuating loneliness, leaving
the spectator almost incredulous
that the summit itself will have
anything more beautiful to offer.
From MitchelPs Ridge to the
summit is a climb of little over a
mile, during which the last nine
hundred of Mitchel's GIL feet
of altitude must be overcome. A
halt at the commissary of the
Perly & Crockett Lumber Com
