Mr.. D. J. Whichard, editor of the
Greenville Reflector, wrote the following
of Scotland Neck after his visit last
week.
"The editor spent very pleasant
day Wednesday In the delightful town
of Scotland Neck. For town of its
size we believe there is more culture,
refinement and gentility among the
people of Scotland Neck than any
town in the State.
,"Our business over there was chiefly
at the Office of The COMMONWEALTH,
and while we found Editor Hilliard
very busy and hard-worked man, he
took time to show us around and point
out several of the towns enterprises.
There are lumber and milling plants,
carriage factories, knitting mills,
chewing gum factory and other indus
tries that give employment to many
hands and add much to the general
prosperity of the community.
Scotland Neck has some splendid
mercantile establishments also, and in
singing out one OF these to speak of no
dlsparagement1 Is intended to the 9th
ers. A visitor cannot be otherwise
than impressed with the stores of M.
Hoffman & Bro. A quarter of a CEN
fury ago the head of this firm, Mr.. M.
Hoffman, went to the town a poor
man, and in these years he has by in
dOm1table energy amassed fortune
and built up an establishment that
would do credit to city. The Joseys,
Shields and others also do an immense
business.
1.-The Reflector never feels like pas
sing but one criticism upon the bust
ness men of Scotland Neck, if we may
be pardoned for mentioning it. That
is the apparent meagre support they
give their home paper as indicated by
its advertising columns. They do not
seem to appreciate the treasure they
have in Mr.. Hllliard and his paper.
The excellent editorial work of THE
COMMONWEALTH faithfully presents the
moral, social and intellectual advan-
tages of the town, and its advertising
columns ought to be able to show to
the outside world the towns splendid
business and industrial features as
welI.'
