the general manager of the system,
and is man who knows how to make
things go with a hum. The electric
line service over which he presides is
splendid, and when train loads of ex-
cursionists arrive the railroad cars
are switched right on to the electric
road and the visitors taken to
WrightSvile without change.
The matter of the delivery of bag
gage is usually an annoying one, but
it is not so in this admirable service.
All baggage is checked through from
any point in or out of the State to
Wrightsville, and when it reaches the
electric line it is put off at the hotel
or cottage designated by the traveller.
That is a matter of comfort that is
not to be overlooked in the summer
trip. 1t takes away much of "worri-
ment' and trouble.
And Wrightsvile Beach, What a
superb place it is. Ten years ago
people considered it foolish to erect
q good house on the Beach, as the
winds and the tides were feared. But
that day is past, and the beach cot
tageS of today are made in elegant
style and are put there to stay, both
summer and winter. The place is no
longer isolated, but telephone and
telegraph service are at hand, and a
personal journey on the electric cars
is always speedy.
The guests who at Wrightsville
Beach make the Seashore Hotel their
abiding place find it a most delight
ful summer resort. 1t is big, roomy
and has a look of cool comfort about
it that is most enjoyable on these hot
days. It's many piazzas fronting on
the surging surf are vantage grounds
from which to see the frolicking in
the waves, and by day or by night
they arc in themselves invitations to
drop into chair and take life easy.

It is a restful place, too. and the days
hurry along almost too swiftly to one
who is getting the best to be had out
of life at the Seashore Hotel.
The table is carefully looked after
and the menu is just the thing for a
seaside resort. The rooms are given
the best of attention, and every courte-
sy is shown the guests, who are sure
to be entertained and pleased with
all the courtesies heaped upon them.
There is a Solendid crowd there this
season, and the hotel as well as the
many cottages on the beach are well
filled, but there is room for the new
corners who arrive each day.
