Boon e People Urged to Improve Town For Visitors
No. 61. Mr. Editor There are many little things the people of Boone could do that would make the town more pleasant and inviting to visitors. I almost lose breath when I see the streets full of children who ought to be in school. Attention is drawn to the dilapidated Academy building with doors torn down and windows knocked out. The vacant lots in the east end are overgrown with grass and back streets could serve as stock pasture. A merchant laments a trick he witnessed with rocks and tea, noting fraud. If Boone could entertain summer visitors, the town would prosper through hotels and boarders. Next week is the Teachers Institute and local effort to kindly welcome teachers would cost nothing.
