'"This war is one of Nations, not of

to conserve food and fuel, and useful
materials of every kind, to devote their
labor only to the most necessary
tasks, and to buy only those things
which are essential to individual
health and efficiency, and that the
people as evidence Of their loyalty in
vest all that they can save in Liberty
Bonds and Wal Savings Stamps. The
securities issued by the Treasury De-
partment are SO many Of them within
the reach Of every one that the door
of opportunity in this matter is wide
open to all Of US. To practice Thrift
in peace times Is a virtue, and brings
great benefit to the individual at all
times. With the desperate need OF
the civilized world today for mater
ials and labor with which to end the
war, the practice Of individual Thrift
is a patriotic duty and a necessity.
~ earnestly appeal to every man,
weman and child to pledge themselves
on or before the tWenty-eiahth of June
to a. constantly and to buy as regu-
larry az possible the securities OF the
Government and to do this as far a.

HIGH PRAISE FOR
HENDERSoNVILLE.

Robert G. Hiden, vice-president
and assistant editor OF the Birming-
ham Ledger, Birmingham, Ala, who
was IN Hendersonville last week and
rented one of the Ennis cottages at
Laurel Park, gives very high praise
to Hendersonville and surrounding
country in an interview, which was
published in the Ledger some days
ago. 1t is interesting to know just
what people from other sections
think after they have visited this
city. The following is the clipping:
Ideal Summer Resort.
Birmingham people seeking ideal
summer climate, beautiful scenery
and restful conditions don't have to
travel far to find Them" said Robert
G. Hiden, of The Ledger, who spent
a day last week in HendersonviIle, N.
c., TO get a cottage for the summer.
"Hendersonville is ideally located
in the Blue Ridge mountains, just
twenty-five miles from Asheville,
with several trains a day to and from
Birmingham, and only a little over a
nights ride. 1t is nearly $500 feet
altitude, with comparatively cool
days and charming nights. The day
I was there the mercury registered
IA degrees, and at night dropped to
SO degrees,
"The town and surroundings make
an ideal summer resort, with pictur-
esque homes, beautiful lawns well
shaded, broad paved streets and a
climate and water unexcelled for
summer. I have never seen a more
attractive end restful looking place,
The scenery for miles around is in
spring, the foliage especially green
~roundings clean as a pin, and excel
lent automobile roads leading to
many attractive resorts from five to
thirty miles distant.
Laurel Park, a beautiful SUMMER
home place just a mile out, with a
network of roadways, two attractive
mountain lakes with excellent bath
ing beach, casino, Swiss railway,
where a magnificent view spreads
itself from the top is connected by
auto bus line on a ten-minute sched-
ule. Here is crystal springs, far
famed for it's c~learness and purity,
bubbling out of solid rock $500 feet
above sea level, and piped through
the park for use of tenants. The
whole park of 800 acres is afame
with laurel, rhododendron and other
mountain flowers, and one of the few
places where a real mountain home
with all city co~nveniences can be
had.
ct is surprising that Birmingham
people should travel afar for ideal
summer conditions, when all can be
had in and around Hendersonville,
a nights ride. Bathing, swimming,
golf, trout fishing and a variety of
outdoor activities are available in
and around this beautiful summer
resort, tucked away in the heart of
the Blue Ridge. For climate, water,
scenery and restfulness during the
heated term, it would be hard to
find a more ideal place for the sum-
mer. 1 was fortunate in obtaining a
furnished cottage in Laurel Park for
family during the summer. l

ditions for children"
