Attractive Tour
For The Tourist

A charming tour of 46 miles,
forming loop to and from Ashe-
vile, is offered those who wish to
visit the mountain metropolis
while in the "Land of the Sky"
Asbeville is 81 miles distant.
Following are directions for
reaching that city by one route
and returning over another:
"Asheville, county seat of Bun
combe; largest city in Western
North Carolina; widely known as
health and pleasure resort; mag
nificient hotels; beautiful subur-
ban developments; four excellent
golf courses; recreation park.
North on Main street Highway rs,
two paved roads from Arden,
where paved highway crosses
bridge over railroad; most at
tractive route through French
Broad and Mills River sections;
turn to left on Highway 191 just
north of Fleming street; paved
road into West Asheville."
There is nothing spectacular
about the route over U. S. 25. 1t
is thickly populated. Is not noun
famous though scenery to the
west, looking toward Pisgah, is
unusually beautiful on a clear
day. Leaving Hendersonville the
motorist passes through Druid
Hills, an attractive residential de-
velopment 10 years old. Two
miles from the city is Balfour
Mills, with its attractive mill viii
lage. Mountain Home is a resi-
dental colony built by st. Peters,
burg citizens about 10 years ago.
Then you are in the Mud Creek
valley which drains Henderson
vile. The Brickton-Fletcher COM
munity, which a few years ago
was a brick manufacturing center
with three plants and rock
quarry, is the center of a good
farming district.
Just after passing through
Fletcher, the center of an old set
Element, made prominent years
ago by tourists, is the site of Cal
vary church, where the building
was recently burned. In the ceme-
terry is the grave of Bill Nye, the
humorist. Next is Arden, where
President Woodrow Wilson spent
his first honeymoon. President
Roosevelt is also understood to
have spent a vacation there. Sky
land comes next with it's popular
lty as a tourist center, provided
the left road is taken at Arden.
The Biltmore Forest, fashionable
development, is soon seen on the
left. Then Biltmore, the village
built by George Vanderbilt. You
cross the railroad tracks and the
Swannanoa river, then Asheville.
The return trip may be made

 !. CHIL.. BARRACKS TOLD BY GADDIS

Christmas at Chilkoot Barracks, where soldiers at the Alaskan gar rison enjoy perfect holiday set ting, is the subject of an article appearing in the December issue ot Recruiting" based on an artcle by Capt. John W. Gaddis, 7th In fantry. The article is as follows:
 It is a few days before Christmas Men of Companies L and F of the 7th Infantry and members of other U. $. Army attachments stationed at Chilkoot Barracks, Alaska, are enjoying the usual holiday season; only the necessary guard and ia tigue duties engage the garrison at far-off Haines, Alaska.
 Some of the men are having their fling at winter sports; they are of on skis or snowshoes. Others are participating in the Haines winter carnival Some of the harder of the doughboys may be off on a hunting trip, climbing the snow packed mountain trails nearby in quest of toothsome ptarmigan.
 A steamer whistle is heard far off in the distance. Immediately all men, women and children at the Army post and in the post town of Haines are smiling. From the tin jest tot to the most venerable sour dough- all hands know the mean ing of that long drawn out whistle.
 There is a mad race down to the long pier jutting out into the Inlet, where the approaching steamer of the Alaska Steamship Line is due to dock shortly. Soldiers and ciy-

Christmas dinner is served at all messes at the Barracks. Turkey m fixin's m everything, including plenty of smokes! Occasionally when the hunting's good-these re- pasts also feature venison. Or bear steaks And don't let anyone tell you that a luscious bear steak is not q feast for the godsl
 Always there is a Christmas enter tainment of some sort, at Chilkoot Barracks There's the usual Christ mas tree, too, set up for the post children and laden with gifts for ev- cry youngster on the reservation.
 Men who have served at Hawaii CT along the Panama Canal Zone or in the Philippines sometimes land at Chilkoot Barracks at a subse- quent stage in their military service. It is these Regulars who spent for mer Christmas holidays in the Trop- ics to whom the. real "Christmasy' atmosphere of Chilkoot Barracks mostly appeals. It's a real Christ fas. A white Christmas, sparkling clear and cold, with snow all about -as it should be at such a season.
 All in all, this famous Alaskan garrison reaches the end of it's holi- day period with a realization that it has experienced as happy and as unique a Christmas as any of it's personnel will ever know elsewhere As the saying is, You don't know

 It's the santa Claus boatl"
 An annual custom this, of the steamship company, and one which never fails to tickle the grown-ups as much as t does the children. Each year the steamer due to dock at Haines on the Christmas run has an added, unregistered pas senger" on it's list. Santa Claus himself. in person, complete with red cap, flowing white beard, err mined coat and huge knee-boots. And, of course, packing a full bag of presents for all and sundry.
 It's all just part of the real Christmas spirit which pervades tllis distant post-sometimes called the most isolated" of all Uncle Sans far-flung military garrisons. But Christmas is a real Christmas up at Chilkoot. There's even a mountain near Haines known as Santa Claus Mountain And the Army children at the Barracks know, as do their little civilian friends at Haines, that this is the peak from which genial St. Nick starts on his annual drive south with reindeers and sleigh. Haven't they all, every last one of these kiddies, seen Santa's very own reindeer herds grazing there. summer times, just north of the Barracks?
 AS for the soldiers stationed at Chilkoot, they enjoy Christmas which is all that such happy holi- day should be. For one thing, it's always a real white Christmas. For weeks before the great holi- day the ground. is covered with a mantle of deep white and the wea- ther is as sparkling cold and rest ful as one could hope for upon such a gala occasion.

State Delegation to Washington Returns With As- surance That Present Building at NewingtOn Will
 Be Enlarged Senator LOnergan Sponsors Bill

Waterbury's ex-servicemen await ing entry to the U. s. veterans hos pital at Newlngton received with interest today the report from Wash ington, D. C., that a new administra- ton building at the institution is to be built. William J. Miller of Wethersfield, senior vice commander of the Connecticut department of the American Legion, has returned from the nations capital with defl- nite promise that the work on the new wing of the hospital is to be ordered shortly.
 Several state leaders of veterans organizations attended the national rehabilitation conference in Wash ington Saturday, Sunday and Mon- day. The structure will provide for 34 more beds in the main building as the personnel of the hospital will be transferred to the new building when 1t is completed.
 LOnergan'S Plans
 U. s. Senator Augustine Lonergan of Hartford has before the senate in Washington a bill providing for 234 beds in the hospital. It has not been approved by the veterans ad- ministration, however, and accord- ing to Vice Commander Miller noth- ing definite as to the outcome of the proposed measure is forthcoming at the present time. The veterans of Connecticut are urging the veterans administration at Washington to do all in it's power to have the Lonergan bill reported favorably and passed.
 At the local office of the American Red Cross 1t was stated this morning that many applications for admission to the Newington hospital had to be placed on file as beds were not avail able. Scores of veterans have been treated in local hospitals when the nature of their cases made 1t impera- tive that immediate attention should be given them.

Evidence Found Indicating Many Have Never Ob-

The local Red Cross headquarters announced this morning that there are many names of veterans on file who have never drawn anything for service in the army and who have never applied because of the short time they served. This short time, according to Mrs. Ladd, local director of the Red Cross, means that the amount due to the veteran will not be much, but there will be some money due to him.
 She cited the case of a man here who had served in the army for less than year and who, after receiv- ing money when he was discharged, thought he had no more coming to him and for that reason had failed to send in bonus application. Upon Investigating the matter 1t was discovered that a small sum was due to him in recompense for the time he served in the army
 In view of this Yact, Mrs. Ladd urges all veterans whose names arc on file at the local office and who have not yet applied, to do 50 ct the earliest possible date. It will

ident Herbert Hoover.
 On oct. 24th, 1921, MT. Rice married Miss Leona Elizabeth Harvey of Woodbury, Conn. They
 were wed at Woodbury on the 42nd anniversary of the brides parents wedding day. The Rices now have one son, Donald Har- vey, three and one-half years old.
 Lieutenant- Colonel Rice weighs 195 pounds and is six feet, three and one-half inches tall, with blue eyes and red hair. He is very much interested in sports, espe- cially football and boxing. Mir. Rice has been quite an athlete. On March 17th, 1916, he became southern heavyweight champion by virtue of four-round knock out of Champion Edward Deck bar, at New Orleans, before @ crowd of 14,000 rabid boxing fans. The champio noutweighed him by 50 pounds and was two and Q half inches taller. MT. Rice also had a noteworthy football career. He played on the high school and college teams and on a profess sional team in Chicago, and was a member of the original Profess sional Football association. He demanded and received five per cent of the gate receipts at every game in which he participated. He alternated at the center and tackle positions. After his arrival here he played two years with Mulligan's Waterbury Blues. Back in 1916 MT. Rice came near equal ing the worlds record for shot putting and disc throwing. His record for the former was Al and one half feet, and 137 feet, 10 inches, for the latter.
 MT. Rice's favorite food dish is broiled pork chops with sweet po- tatoes. Apple pie and cheese is his choice of dessert. His favor ite drink is coffee. He smokes cigars, cigarettes and a pipe. Mus ical comedies furnish his favorite entertainment. He prefers to read biography and also detective stor- ies. The violin is his favorite musical instrument. He enjoys deep sea fishing, horseback riding and golf. He is very enthusiastic about aviation and has ridden in airplanes many times, once with his young son by his side. He de- rives much pleasure from solving crossword puzzles.
 Lieutenant Colonel Rice is past commander of Corporal Coyle post of the American Legion; past president of the Waterbury chap ter of the Reserve Officers asso- ciation; and is a member of the Elks, Y. M. c. A., United States Army Ordinance association and several other organizations, in- cluding the Young Mems Repub- lican club. He is a Knights 1emplar, 32nd degree and Shrin- CT, of the Masonic order. He re- sides with his family at III Woodside avenue, and w0rships at the Second Congregational church.
 And that, my friends. ends my sincere attempt to paint a w0rd- picture of the Lieutenant-C Colonel Roy Emmett Rice, one of our most active and popular neigh- hOrs. Knowing him is to admire him.
