The footnote with the first page

showing the prize winners with
their exhibits in the All dairy
and beef cattle competition at the

named one of the winners Gordon

Jensen, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Elmer

for the best dairy animal. Shirley

PARKERSONS HOTEL IS
OPENING ON APRIL Is
One Of Pioneer Sporfsmens' Headquar-
ters Continues Under Same Man
seement at Naes Head

Parkersons Hotel at Nags Head
will open on April 18th, today.
1t is one of Nags Heads older
places, having early in IT'S career
established great popularity be-
cause it opened early and gave
sportsfishermen the kind of
honey atmosphere they like,
along with rest and good food. 1t
soon developed into a place fo1
family groups, and the late L. S.
Parkerson, who with Mrs. Parker
son founded the business, made an
enormous success between May 10,
1886 and September 1914 when
Mr.. Parkerson passed away. Mrs.
Parkerson continued thereafter to
operate the hotel with great sue
cess. During the past several
years, her sisters, Mrs. Sam Mid
gett and Mrs. Henry Twiford of
Manteo have assisted her in the
management of the hotel.
The hotel has always promised
it's guests the freedom of camp at
the seashore with all home COM
fort. Parkersons early recognized
that people coming to the seashore
expect to find seafood. Parkersons
see that they are not disappointed;
and gets fish fresh daily from the
nets not 300 yards away, caught
