Preface
Shelby, near the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, was char- tered in 1843. It has an aldermanic form of Government with Mayor and four councilmen, owns and operates its water and electric system. It was named for Col. Isaac Shelby-hero of the Battle of Kings Mountain, fought nearby in the Revolutionary War. Principal streets, such as Washington, LaFayette, Warren, Marion, are named for Revolutionary War heros. Shelby is the home of the late O. Max Gardner, Ambassador to the Court of St. James (1947, Governor (1929-33); the late Clyde R. Hoey, U. S. Senator (1946-1954, Governor 1937-1941); the late E. Y. Webb. U. S. Federal Judge (1949) and former U. S. Congressman during Wilson's administration; Hatcher Hughes, Pulitzer Prize Winner (1934) and the late Thomas Dixon, author of the famous novel "The Clansmen" on which D. W. Griffith based his epic picture "Birth of a Nation."
Shelby home owners take more than usual pride in their commun- ity and interest in its development.

LOCATION
Shelby is the county seat of Cleveland County, 40 miles west of Charlotte on U. S. 74, and 72 miles east of Asheville on the same High- way. The city is protected from extreme temperature in winter and summer by nearby mountains, which are the highest east of the Rock- ies. Shelby, therefore, enjoys a year-round climate that is healthful and invigorating. This section offers to those seeking a change of location an ideal, evenly balanced winter and summer climate. The average annual temperature is 59 degrees. Altitude is 846 feet.
POPULATION
Shelby has constantly maintained a solid and well-rounded develop- ment of its industrial, agricultural ,and cultural features which has re- sulted in a steady and even population growth. The 1955 population of Shelby is 16,000, and the population of greater Shelby is approximately 23,500. Newcomers find a ready welcome and a neighborly atmosphere, unspoiled by class distinction. It is easy to make friends in Shelby where hospitality comes naturally.
EDUCATION
The Shelby school system is as modern and well-equipped as one would expect to find anywhere. Gardner-Webb College, nine miles from Shelby, offers advantages of higher education in an institution ac- credited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Universities. The local Howard Business College provides secretarial and accounting training.
RECREATION
A new and delightful $500,000.00 municipal park and recreation facilities, five supervised playgrounds, totalling 120 acres ,help to make Shelby a pleasant place to live. A lighted athletic field, seating 4,000, municipal swimming pool, and golf course, together with a private golf course and country club greatly add to the recreational facilities. Also, there is a separate negro park, playground, lake and club house. There are five motion picture theatres with a seating capacity of 3,500. Then, too, there are the active civic and professional clubs such as Kiwanis, Rotary, Lions, Jaycees, Optimist, Masonic Lodge, B.P.O.E., Business and Professional Women's Club, A.A.U.W., Senior and Junior Woman's Club, Junior Charity League, Cleveland-Rutherford Executives Club, Community Concert Club, and Little Theatre Guild.
AGRICULTURE
A rich agricultural area, Cleveland County has more than 5,000 farms. In addition to being one of the State's largest cotton producing counties, it also markets apples and other fruit and dairy products, beef cattle, hogs, chickens, and small grains.

INTRODUCTION
PREFACE
(Continued from Page 5)
INDUSTRY
An excellent climate, availability of raw materials, and accessi- bility to markets-plus an abundance of power, water, and native labor -have all contributed to the industrial development of this section. Shelby has nine textile and hosiery plants employing over 3,600 people with an annual payroll of approximately eight million dollars.
ELECTRIC POWER
Cleveland County is the center of the largest and most modern of the Duke Power Company's steam generating plants. This 220,000 Kilo- watt steam generating power plant was completed by the Duke Power Company at Cliffside (within the county) in 1948, providing Shelby and Cleveland County with ample light and power for growing business and industry.
FINANCE
The two banks in Shelby have deposits of over 25 million dollars. Also there are three thriving Building and Loan Associations and other financial institutions. Shelby is the retail trading center of Cleveland County, as well as the county seat, with attendent government activities. Shopping facilities are excellent with many good locally owned stores, branches of large chains, and desirable distributing organizations serv- ing the area. 1954 retail sales were $37,100,000-a 400% increase over 1940.
TRANSPORTATION AND COMMUNICATION
Shelby is served by two railroads, the Southern and Seaboard. Buses arrive and leave at all hours of the day and night. Nineteen motor express lines operate through the city. Shelby is also connected by Highways 18, 26, 74, and 150. It also has a private airport. A daily newspaper, the "Shelby Daily Star" established in 1894, serves the county and has ABC circulation of 10,400; the semi-weekly "Cleveland Times," established in 1941 has a circulation of 3,500. Radio Station WOHS operates on clear channel 730 Kilocycles, daylight hours, and WOHS-FM on 96.1 megacycles, unlimited time to furnish radio service. Excellent television reception is had from Charlotte and Asheville in North Carolina and Greenville, S. C.
MEDICAL
A $600,000.00 addition to our hospital has just been completed, now making a modern 125-bed hospital. In addition, there is an active health department directed by a full-time Doctor and a full-time Sanitary En- gineer. The New Shelby Medical Center has just been completed and represents an investment of $250,000.00 in the health of Cleveland County.
Shelby offers opportunity not only to its own people, but also to others seeking the particular advantages of working and living, of business and recreation, of pleasure and profit, which it offers in well balanced combination.
