Build-Up Roofing, - Asphalt Shingles Pushing Plans For Development Sales Organization Busy j Making Contacts For Mov ing Property Included In' Beach Development Asserting that they are working I on the most carefully engineered! plan ever executed as a result ! of close study of other develop- j ments, the Carolina Land, Inc., of , Charleston, now has a big organi- I zation working night and day to make the model resort city be tween Caswell Beach and Long Beach the biggest coastal develop ment in North Carolina, if not on the entire Atlantic coast. This is according to E. F. Mid dleton, Jr. For two weeks Mr. Middleton has been building up a powerful sales organization thro- 1 ughout North and South Carolina. | For this week and the rest of i the month of October he is ex tending his activities to form sales connections throughout all of the larger cities of the North and east, Cleveland, Ohio; Wash ington, D. C.; Philadelphia, Pitts burg and even into New York, j He says that the interest at all | points has been far better than j he could have hoped for. One of their connections gave up a twelve thousand dollar a year job in or der to throw all of his energies into the development undertaking. Regarding the many facilities that are to be a part of the model resort town development, Mr. Middleton said Saturday that they expected to get construction of the modern 60 room hotel un derway by Christmas, that in any event it was to be completed in the spring. The hotel is to come first in the corporations develop ment program. Everything is un der well formed plans, to be carried out as they can be reach ed. The hotel first, air strip, amusement pavilion, fishing pier, yacht basin and other facilities should all be underway or com pleted by this time next year. But it is expected that several years will be required to carry out the program with additions as they may arise. The Middletons founded Long Beach, fast growing and widely popular. They are still pushing if. In fact, the new model resort town is a part of Long Beach, although separ ate from it. It is believed on all sides that the new move will give the original Long Beach its biggest and most powerful de velopment impulse. The extensive sales organization for the new program will work just as vigor last week. Attorney G. Butler Thompson of Lumberton spent the week-end here with his mother, Mrs. J. W. Thompson. Mrs. Prince O'Brien is visit ing her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Keith, in Raleigh. Mrs. Ernest Follett and son David, of Fredericksburg, Va., are spending several days here with Mr. and Mrs. Victor Bartels. Miss Roberta Bishop, of Cam bridge, Mass., is spending two weeks here; with Mr. and Mrs. Viotor Bartels. FEEDS? SEEDS FARM SUPPLIES We Are Wholeale Dealers For Statesville Flour Mills Co.

As an evidence of local inter- j est and faith in the Middletons and this development, W. G. Mc- j Glammery, Southport Cafe own- j er, jumped in and was the first buyer after it became known | that blocks and lots were for | sale .Mr. McGlammery bought all j of one of the smaller blocks ad joining the Fort Caswell Road. He stated to a newsman that he will begin the construction of a modern tourist court the first of the year. He will have facili ties for trailers, a lunch room and well appointed cabins and other conveniences. No check has been made with the sales organizations to see how much property has already] been sold, but Middleton stated Saturday that he hoped to have some very interesting announce ments in two weeks time. Reading Public See Pictures Wide Distribution Continues For Three Photographs Recently Taken Near Southport -Millions of newspaper and mag azines readers are now seeing pictures of Capt. Bill Styron and the 122-pound tarpon that he caught here a few weeks ago. The picture is not only appearing in hunting and fishing magazines, it is being used by the hundreds of dally and weekly newspapers that are being served by the As sociated Preps. Captain Styron has over 50 clippings showing the picture as used in various newspapers throughout the country. More such pictures are Coming in daily, along with clippings of stories that accompanied the pictures when they were distributed by the Associated Press. Anoth^ picture now being dis tributed by both the Associated Press and King Feature Service is being widely used. This picture made by John Hemmer of the State News Bureau, shows South port's great fleet of shrimp traw lers at their moorings in the bas in on a recent Sunday. In one let ter from the press clipping ser vices this week, W. B. Keziah received 27 clippings of this pic ture. They were used in various papers throughout the country. Other batches of clippings from other papers are coming in every day or two. A third local picture, still be ing widely used, shows the hot [Water bathing pools at Fort Cas well. This picture was also made ' by Hemmer and distributed thro ugh both King Feature Service I and the Associated Press. Thus far , the clippings received here represent circulations of over a million. At that, the Press clipp ing services say that owing to the country-wide distribution, they are only able to get clippings I from about 35 per cent of the papers that used the picture. Clip pings are still coming in and it will be several weeks before all of the weekly and monthly pap ers get around to using the pic ture. The release date was optio nal for publishers. Last week Phil Wright, state news editor of the Wilmington News, David Peterson, staff pho tographer, and Keziah went on the shrimp trawler of Captain Merrit Moore and secured some valuable pictures of the shrimp ing industry. These pictures and a story on the shrimping are now being used in North Carolina dailies. It is very likely that the Associated Press will pick up some of them.

Brunswick County Cotton Crop Reported To Be The Worst In History In Point Of Production Early season reports of dam age being done by boll weevils in the cotton fields are being born out by the harvest. Although the acreage in Brunswick is re latively small it is twice as large as was planted during any one of the past 30 years. Recently Rice Gwynn of Long wood stated that on his 80 acres In cotton he would only make a bout 20 percent of a crop. He thought that these figures also applied to the general production in the county. Although tne acreage he plant- ; ed this year has not been stated. ? Bert Frink of Shallotte town- j ship made over a bale to the acre I last year, and this year he is I credited with saying that he will | not even pick over his fields. About the best report of a cot ton crop received by this paper came from Register of Deeds Amos Walton. He planted four acres on his farm near Hickman's Cross Roads and says that Ije made two small bales that just barely paid expenses. The general .opinion is that very little if any cotton will be planted in the county next year. ERROR IN NAMES In a report two weeks ago it was stated that William McDon ald, Raleigh and Floyd Varnum had been arrested on a charge of manufacturing. This was an error. The correct names of those arrested should have been Wil liam and Floyd McDonald and Raleigh Varnum. Floyd Varnum was not implicated. of real general interest In mind. He plans to get it just as soon as a photographer is available. FUNERAL RITES (Continued F^rr rw? On" held ;in the old Southport ceme tery. Rev. L. D. Hayman offici ated at the services.
