Photographers In Town On Visit Charlotte Photographic Soc lety Had Several Mem bers In Southport Foi Week-End Excursion Tc Points Of Interest ■ Seven members of the Charlotte Photographic Society spent Sat urday and Sunday here, and de spite rather cloudy weather one day and cold the next they were 1 ; very much pleased and deelarec ; I their intention of returning ir j the summer. The society has 52 members The organization owns its owr laboratory alid most of the mer are skilled in developing in ad dition to photography. All mem bers are professional men of some sort and have photography as I their hobby. As a result they pro bably give more care to their hobby than the average profes sional cameraman does. None of the society’s members making the trip here were kids. | Serious minded when at their ■ work of making pictures, they I still had a great deal of fun out | of their trip and declared they ! were returning in the summer. Their trip will probably result in the whole membership of the so ciety coming down here some time. Louis Waller, who in everyday life is head of Associated Trans port, Inc., in Charlotte, said: “From Norfolk, Va., to Savannah, Ga., Southport and Brunswick county offer more photogenic pos sibilities than are to be found anywhere else along the coast.” Joe Rhyne, part of the top brass for the Standard Oil Com pany for North and South Car olina with headquarters at Char lotte, was very much pleased. He said he wanted to bring his fam ily to Brunswick this summer and see what he could do with his hobby while they were vaca tioning. Johnny Pierce of the Akers Motor Lines, Inc.; Reid Waltz, Royal Typewriter Company; Louis Hover, Pittsburg Plate Glass Company; Walter R. Dixon, Jr., J. D. Miston, Inc.; and Hoyt Roush of Hoyt Roush Accoun tants, Inc., composed the balance of the party.

As a .matter of fact, they found sub jects for their cameras so abun ! dant that they did not get into i half of the program that had been tentatively arranged for them by W. B. Keziah. Saturday morning was devoted to scenes in Southport while wait ing lifholi. The afternoon saw them bound up the River Road to Orton and other points for flower pictures in colors and other scenes. The plans for Sunday were to shoot everything interesting from Fort Caswell down the Brunswick county beach line. The weather sort of interfei red. The fellows were up and had break fast at six o’clock. The weather at that time convinced them that beach pictures were out of order. So they hired a boat and went to Bald Head island, where the weather was reported to be sub tropical. They will be here again for those beaches, sometime when it will be warm enough for pretty girls in bathing suits to pose as models. They did not even get to Fort Caswell this time. I Census Prayer Dear Lord, I thank Thee for i helping me get through the week I without losing my mind. Lord, You know I was so tangled up with red tape I couldn't sleep. Thank You for closing the jaws of the bad dog that was suppos ed to bite but let me pass. Lord bless all those poor souls who had so man\ symptoms and re store them to health. Help me to rightly divide the truth when the old mar. and the old lady can t agree on how many hogs he sold and what he got for them. I thank Thee I didn't break my legs or catcli my death of cold when I climbed over the mud banks in front of the houses where the road is graded. I thank Thee, Lord, for blessing the peo ple with so many eggs and chick ens but please, Lord, help them to remember how many they sold last year. Thank Thee for every leaders to overlook it if we’re cranky. Lord, I thank Thee Tor all those good people who hurried to open their doors that I might be sheltered from the cold wind. Last but not least, I thank Thee that i he census is only once in 10 ye^rs and, Lord, if you’ll help me|ffs time I promise I’ll never do Tt again. -Mrs. E. V. Fites in Raleigh News and Observer.
