VIRGINIA BEACH, Va, May
24.-"May your way there be
rs pleasant as your stay there"
Centuries ago when travellers
rode in stagecoaches over
rutted roads beset by highway
men. their stops for rest and
refreshment were Of necessity
often.
Then. over a glass Of ale. that
toast might have been made
that the journey might be
completed as pleasantly as was
the fellowship that abounded
at the inns where stops we're
made.
If you would like to see that
toast fulfilled for you. there
Is a simple method-choose
this Atlantic Ocean resort as
the destination of your next
trip.
Today there are no stage
coaches: there are no highway
men and the necessity for stop
ping along the way has all but
been eliminated. Refreshments,
both food and drink, today are
yours for the asking as you
breeze along in sleek carriers.
From every point of the COM
pass travellers converge here for
sun. surf. relaxation and en-
tertainment, and for the pure
delight of getting away" from
the everyday cares of the world.
The blue ocean waters, the
shimmery white sand, and
gentle breezes combine to COM
plement what man has pro-
Vided in the way of comfort.
For those who drive, broad
ribbons of asphalt and con-
crete unroll in effortless mile
after mile to the doorstep of
this resort city. Gone are the
tedious waits for ferries. Glis-
tening, well-lighted tunnels
permit the driver to whisk
across what used to be i'm
penetrable barriers of water.
Your automobile lie M ,oroh-
lem after you arrive. Oper-
ators of the hotels and motels
that dot the 4 miles of
beach here provide of street
parking and attendants.
For those who like faster
modes of travel, airplanes go
and come each day. From the
airport, limousine service is
available for a nominal sum.

here are celebrating all summer
long. with the cllmaxing festi-
val week September 1920 set to
be a big occasion.
At the entrance TO the county
along the road here from
Washington. there is a neon

reminder to travellers that a
celebration is going on. An
other electrically lighted cake
stands on the lawn Of the
court house.
This is a paradoxical county.
where the phrase George

modern motels, stately colonial
mansions, and gracious living.
1t is a county Of hospitality
and an interesting place to visit,
particularly during this Ter
centenary Year.
Charles County celebrated its
official birthday-May 10. 1858
with impressive ceremonies
dedicating a simple memorial
at Port Tobacco.
Port Tobacco
Port Tobacco, once the cul-
tural center Of the New World.
is one of the most intriguing
spots in the county.
There visitors can see the
sturdy old homes of Thomas
Stone. signer of the Declara-
ton of Independence: John
Hanson, President Of the
United States in Congress As
sembled": DR.. James Craik and
Gustavus r. Brown, physicians
to George Washington, and
Daniel of st. Thomas Jenifer,
signer Of the Constitution of
the United States.
These homes, as livable today
as when they were built in the
18th Century, will be open to
visitors on scheduled tours dur
ing the Tercentenary Year.
Capt. John Smith, who was
quite a traveller himself, is be-
lieved to be the first white man
to view Charles County.
There he met the Potopaco
Indians. One theory is that
Port Tobacco is a corruption of
Potopaco. and that the weed
got its name from the port.
County Established
On May 10, 1858, Josiah
Fendall. the proprietary gov
ernor. set up the county and
called it Charles in honor of
the son of Caecilius Calvert,
second Lord Baltimore.
After that it seemed that peo-
pie destined to be famous kept
moving in.
There's a move on now to re-
store Port Tobacco to its orig
inal glory. One step was taken
