Hickman Crossroads, June 4, 1948 , Editor, State Port Pilot, Southport, N. C. Dear Sir: Recently I was a patient at the hospital in Southport, and there are some things I want to say about the way I was treat ed out there. To begin with I didn't much want to come to the hospital. Some folks had said so much about it I didn't know what to lexpect. But finally I got to hurt ing so had I didn't care where they took me. Now all I want to say is this. There may be doctors who know more and there are bigger hos pitals, but I don't think you can find a hospital anywhere that you will be treated better. I mean every member of the staff was as good and kind to me as they could be, and I want all of the people in Brunswick county to know that we are lucky to have a hospital like we have. As long as I live I never ex pect to miss a chance to praise our hospital and the doctors and nurses who help to give such good care to the patients. J, B. HEWETT Durham, N. C. June 6th, 1918 Dear Southport folks: Usually when writing to my three kids X would put four sheets cf paper and three carbons in typewriter and then send a copy to each one. It is a time saver and they all get the same news. , When I began to count the num ber cf Southport friends to whom I should write I though of this s.heme and then a better one popped into my mind .that may; be Jimmie would print the let ter in his paper then all of you would hear from me. Well folks, the address is 909 I Markham Ave, Durham, N. C. [ Phone X 4698. Mark it down somewhere. We like our new home very much although we are living in three rooms until the i tenants vacate the other three j rooms on June 15th. The house I is one story, 6 rooms and two baths and arranged for two apar tments if needed. Painted white, green awnings, Venetian blinds, ! weather stripped, insolated, solid oak floors. Radiator in each 'room for heat supplied by coal j furnace with stoker in basement and a separate gas water heater | for summer use. Nice high lot 165 ft. front by 185 ft. deep. Gocd garage, paved street, side walk and close to bus line. So much for the house. We want you to visit us but don't all come at once. After July 1st we will have a guest room available. Mrs. Smith is well although i she is unable to put on her shoe having shut the door of the car on her foot but will be OK in a day or two. Regarding my health I am not making much head way, just lie around on the couch and the bed and read and listen to the radio and gives me plenty of [time to think of you people and I makes me lonesome for South port. I miss my morning trip to the ' office. Waving to Mrs. Bragaw as [she sits so queenly on her front I porch, then coming out of the store with quick and measured 1 steps Cronley Ruark going for his mail. As I would park in 1 front of the office my colored friends would move over just enough for me to enter; then a pit pat a tiny feet, little Grace going to work in the tax office and from the other direction would come lovely Louise Reese. Then Joe and Grae would drive up and another round of good mornings, hope you are feeling good. In front of the post office would be Jimmie with the new baby and Keziah flipping up a match box and cutting funny an-! tics to make the baby laugh. Bill j : Jorgenscn going for his morn-j ings coke; then a chug chug of i . Clarance's automobile stopping in 1 ? front of Liggets; Jimmie Carr1 looking up and down the street! and his dog trying to catch his | |shadow; Alice Arrington across: | the street surveying a new win I dow display. Bremen with a lit j tie cap on his head and a little, 1 hammer in his hand tacking up ! a new movie poster. I often warn- j ed Bremen that this strenuous work might be deterimental to his health. In the post office white a colored lined up al'ng! ! the walls with dogs under feet1 waiting for the window to open.! A good morning to Paul and Geo-1 rge Whatley. The mail is all up. I Suddenly, everything is quiet, not a sould to be seen on the street, The sun gets a little warmer a pleasant feeling of drowsyness comes over you such wonderful peace - no worries - and all is j well in Southport.

BLOCK OWNERSHIP (Continued from page one) forts very profitable. There is the case of Jlmmle Welt, widely known tobacco auct ioneer. His home was at Sanford. He is now a full time resident of Long Beach, except when he is on the Fairmont tobacco mar ket as auctioneer. Mr. Woltz had a nice summer home at Long Beach before the block sale system was put into ef fect. He bought one of the full blocks and proceeded to erect a beautiful two-story, twelve room, year-round home on the block. He sold his old home to Dr. Joe Usher of Greensboro be fore he could move out of it and into the large new residence. He had hardly moved into the large new residence before Wat son Wallace of Fayetteville came along and bought the ground from under and the roof from over him. Mr. Wallace let the Woltz stay on In the big house until they could build another Just like it and immediately adjoining. It seems that Jimmie has been having a hard time keeping a roof over the head of Mrs. Jimmie. However, he has found it very profitable building houses, selling them and promising her the next one. Others who bought blocks aro working out things the"same way. The buy a block and pick your own neighbor plan of the Carolina Lands, Inc., will undoubtedly be productive of steady development at Long Beach for many years to come. -INSURANCE AUTO . .
