PREFACE


SHELBY,


NORTH CAROLINA


Preface


Shelby, near the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, was chartered in 1844. It was named for Col. Isaac Shelby, hero of the Battle of Kings Mountain, fought nearby in the War of the Revolution. All the princi- pal streets are named for Revolutionary war heroes. The present popu- lation of Shelby is 17,340.


There are eleven textile plants in Shelby, employing 4,700 workers who receive annual wages of more than $5,000,000. These plants con- sume 50,000 bales of cotton and much synthetic materials. They include thread mills, yarn, cloth, and hosiery.


All the facilities needed for a modern little city are to be found in Shelby. A modern 75-bed hospital, public schools, health department, and a public library. Aldermanic form of government with Mayor and four councilmen. The tax rate, 90 cents, is among the lowest in the state. Municipally owned water and electric systems.


Shelby is served by two railroads, branch lines of Southern and Sea- board. Main line of Southern traverses the County a few miles from Shelby. Buses arrive and leave at all hours. Three motor express lines operate thru the city.


There are many beautiful homes. Shelby is the birthplace and present home of two North Carolina governors. This section has pro- duced many distinguished men and women of national fame.


Recreation is provided by a country club house, nine hole golf course, tennis courts; also large county fairgrounds, horse-back riding, and Athletic Field lighted for night games. There are three hotels with total of 210 rooms. Three banks, three building & loan associations and finance companies have total resources exceeding twenty-three million dollars.


A pleasant climate. Rich agricultural region and altogether a splen- did community in which to live and earn a living.
