ITS ORGANIZATION IS MILITARY


and is highly commended by United States Army Officers and Army Inspectors, who pronounce it among the four or five best of the hundred schools of the Union which have had Military Profes- sors detailed from the Army.


MODERN LANGUAGES


Since the U. S. became a world power, the necessity of our ceas- ing to be a mono-lingual people only is obvious. To meet this need for our pupils, we offer the spoken German, French and Spanish, taught by a Master of Arts of Harvard, with more than five years of special study of modern languages abroad.


SAFETY AGAINST FIRE


Since 1891 more than 1,200 pupils have perished in School FIRES in the U. S., ALL in HIGH BUILDINGS, 180 of them in the Col- linwood, O., Fire on the 4th of March, 1908. We have only SINGLE STORY buildings. Our FIRE ESCAPE is the GROUND, through more than 80 doors, and 100 windows, all on the ground floor, making 200 GROUND FLOOR FIRE ES- CAPES for 150 PUPILS.


HAZING


During the last twenty (20) years as many as FIFTY (50) pupils in the Northern Schools and Colleges and FOUR (4) in Southern Schools and Colleges have been PUT TO DEATHI by hazers, many more have been injured for life and the guilty parties have gone Scot free.


HAZING is absolutely excluded from Bingham by our pledge of honor against it, as any patron or pupil of the School for the last four years will testify.


Our safety against FIRE and the absence of HAZING differen- tiate Bingham from any other Institution of Learning in the U. S. For Catalogue giving very full particulars, address

PREFACE


In submitting Volume XII of the Asheville City Directory, it is gratifying to note the progress that is being made in industries and growth of population.


A great factor in the upbuilding of any city is its civic pride; the fact that your citizens stand as a unit on everything that affects the prosperity of your city is worthy of commendation.


The City Directory is one of the foremost enterprises of any city ; it is generally referred to by the press of the whole country as a semi- public institution of great value.


The Directory is more than a mere list of names of residents, giving their various occupations and addresses, it is an infallible guide to your city, for your people and for the stranger within your gates. It not only deals with your people, but with your government, your institutions and various other organizations. It is a recognized standard work of refer- ence and becomes the most reliable history of your city and its citizens. As there is no other publication in the world which gives the informa- tion as contained in the City Directory, there is probably no other publi- cation in which all the people are so vitally interested.


To gather the data and compile a volume of this character is no easy task. It requires much time, a well defined system, the patience of Job and incurs no little expense. Few people have any idea of the work it means and the tenacity it takes to publish a reliable directory.


In preparing this book the publishers have spared neither time nor expense, and if errors occur or a single name is omitted which should appear in the work. it is generally the fault of the public and not of the publisher, as every house is visited and it is not the publisher's or can- vasser's fault if some one fails to give all the information or gives it incorrectly. The intentions of the reliable publisher are always for improvement, and you can always count on getting as accurate a directory as circumstances will permit.


The estimate of the population of a city is a matter necessarily en- joined upon the directory publisher ; such estimates, however, are not merely theoretical, but based on facts, sustained by the contents of the publication.


This volume contains 13,150 names of individuals; using the con- servative multiple 21/2 times, to represent the names of married wo- men and children not counted, indicates a population of


32,875


(This does not mean simply population inside the city limits, but takes in consideration all suburbs included in the Directory.)


In concluding, we desire to thank our patrons for their support and to extend our thanks to the public in general for the courteous way in which nearly everyone supplied our canvassers with the desired data. We shall continue this publication from time to time to meet the de- mand. Yours truly,


PIEDMONT DIRECTORY CO., ERNEST H. MILLER, Pres.

HEALTH IS COMBUSTION


My business is aiding nature to dispose of this unwelcome abnormality. I accomplish this by means of a physiological, scientific system of manual manipulation of the structure which, by accelerating the circulation, increases combustion and so facilitates the natural elimination of a diseased condi- tion. In short, I make it possible for the body to purify itself by improving the circulation. This is the object and certain result of Mechano Therapy.


I do not disparage the noble art of the physician and surgeon, and if your sickness is not amenable to Mechano Therapy, I shall tell you so frankly.
