Mrs. FIavilla Losch, Mana

Every once in a while the
question is asked Why should

on St. Croix?" There seems to
be an impression at times that
tourists are favored above
everyone else.
While st. Croix has a tradi-
ton Of hospitable welcome to
visitors, which we hope will
always continue, hospitality
extended to the tourist is
plain good business. We be
lieve everyone will agree that
St. Croix needs business-pro-

economy and, particularly, to
increase employment and 10

All Roanoke Knows And

This week we are saluting
an interesting little lady of
Roanoke, who is affection
ately called, Mrs. Mitchell.
She is diminutive in statue,
with a spryness which bellies
her 80 years. She lives at
80 Gilmer Ave-, n. w.
A native of Franklin Coun-
ty, she said, when asked about
her church utilization, "Why
Methodist, of course! My
father was one of the first
Methodist ministers and his
son (my brother) was also d
methodist minister. Why I'm
a Methodist bred, and Meth

In explaining her name,
Mrs. Mitchell says that her
mothers name was Violet

G. w. Rose. Hence from that
union | got the name Redd
