Three in One
Appalachia is one of the busi?
est little tow us in Southwest
Virginia* Big Stone Gap is one
of the homiest litilu homo
towns in Souiliwes; Virginia;
Kasi Stone Gap opoaa into the
food producing section of the
southern end of tho county, By
lli? very nature of their loca?
tions these three towns are des
tined to supplement and help
each other; by the well ilcfinod
individuality of each of these
towns, each is able to supply an
essential element to tho growth
and prosperil* of all th'ee.
Growth and prosperity is
what every wide-awake com?
munity is reaching out for in
the period of bconoinlo and
commercial ri construction fol
lowing 4t he war. Unless the
signs of the times fall, the cor

community Imping ami work
ihg together for the welfiin?of I
Hin vvjiole. In N sense, inns |
much as there exists the sup j
plciucuinry relation mentioned
above, t hose three towns consti
tutu a simple commutiity.
How can our three towns sc-|

hearty spin! "f interest ami1
helpfulness among lliciti. To
change the words of St. I'anl to j
lit our litth' triangle ol towns,
we may say : "Ami now ahnl
eth Appalachia, Hie, Stone Hop,;
KaSI Shine liap. these three;
Out the greatest of these is?
the one that can tlo most to
boil.I up all three."
A second, practical, tangible
means of increasing the pros,
perit) of all three towns would
be tb conned them bj an clor?
tne trolley hue. 'J here is at
present considerable travel
among I ho three towns;wii h the
convenience of trolley service
liiere would bo tnlioiiely more.
It would be a paying proposi?
tion to all three of the Ut)gtCS of
our triangle of co operation.

who nbsontihindcdly knit two

When the collector calls with
