STREET SCENE AT CAROLINA BEACH, N. C.
"THE SOUTH'S MIRACLE BEACH"
Carolina Beach, located just 55 miles from Wilmington, N. C., is one of the state's main resorts. Bathe on the North Beach and enjoy it from all parts of the country during the summer months. During the winter it is a favored spot for fishermen.
Dear Friend,
I thought I would get a postcard off before our motor vacation is about over and we have had a wonderful short time. Looks like a good time, we'll come to see you when I get back to mother. My love to your grandmother.
Jayloville, Illinois.
