MAGAZINE EDITOR WRITES UP HIS BRUNSWICK TRIP (Continued from page 1) State. . . . The stately water oaks on the town square: one of the most beautiful sights to be found anywhere. . . . When I get ready to quit work, Southport is the place where I'm going to live. There's no more restful place in North Carolina. It might not be a bad idea to run over to Fort Caswell and see what they've been doing over there. Man from up North bought all that property and plans to develop it on an extensive scale. It's about nine miles by road from tSOUUipuri, uul icon uimi by water. And looka there! A hard-surface road all the way to the fort! When we were here a couple of years ago the old dirt road was in terrible condition. This certainly is a big improvement. Things at the Fort look just about the same as they did the last time we were there. Some of the officers' homes have been freshened up. and there are some new houses on the water's edge The grounds evidently are being well cared for. We leave the fort and drive back along the beach. It's a beautiful day: early in the afternoon, the sun is shining brightly, we're in .no hurry, so let's park the car and go out on the beach IsoapsaleI PALMOLIVE 7c SUPER SUDS (Red Box) ...10c SUPER SUDS (Blue Box) 10c (GET CLOTHES "HOSPITAL CLEAN") OCTAGON SOAP (Giant) 5c OCTAGON POWDER (Large) 5c OCTAGON TOILET 5c OCTAGON CLEANSER 5c OCTAGON CHIPS 10c OCTAGON GRANULATED 10c CRYSTAL WHITE SOAP 5c lollywood BEAUTY Soap 5c CREME OIL SOAP 5c * ?"V , r> , cr\AI> HIjIj.A \I uiiiiu; / uv. a.
