High Point Furniture Exposition Paying Off, June 28, 1921

Genius of High Point

During the furniture exposition which the hustling and enterprising geniuses of High Point have been promoting for the past few days, it is estimated that $1,200,000 worth of furniture has been sold. Visitors came from far and near and sales of furniture were made to parties from all sections of the country. This may not only be taken as a strong indication that we are pacing it back toward that subtle and somewhat indefinable point of “normalcy,” but that when it comes to manufacturing and selling furniture, High Point is in a call all to itself in this country, leaving Grand Rapids, Mich., aside. And some of these days, if High Point continues its present gait, there is not going to be any exception at all. Grand Rapids, too, will have been left in the trail of the bristling little city up the way.

From the editorial page of The Charlotte News, Tuesday, June 28, 1921. W.C. Dowd, president and general manager; Julian S. Miller, editor; Jasper C. Hutto, city editor; and W.M. Bell, advertising manager.
