TRADE! You like


to patronize those concerns who are in business to stay.


It's human to expect that such busi- ness establishments always stand back of the wares they sell.,


The advertising in this Directory is suggestive of the stability and per- manency of the advertisers.


Frauds, fakes, get-rich-quicks and other schemers have little use for directory advertising. It lives too long .:


The modern City Directory is a business institution. It occupies a place peculiarly its own .; It is as necessary to the progress and de- velopment of a city generally as anything naturally would be which deals with such a fundamental as the citizens themselves.


If you are not advertising your busi- ness in the Directory, may we ex- plain how and why it will pay you?

INTRODUCTION


HILL DIRECTORY CO., Inc., publishers of Southeastern Directories, present to subscribers and the general public, this, the 1939 edition of the Fayetteville City Directory.


Confidence in the growth of Fayetteville's industry, population and wealth, and in the advancement of its civic and social activities, will be maintained as sections of this Directory are consulted, for the Directory is a mirror truly reflecting Fayetteville to the world.


The enviable position occupied by HILL'S Directories in the estimation of the public, has been established by render- ing the best in Directory service. With an unrivaled organ- ization, and having had the courteous and hearty cooper- ation of the business and professional men and residents, the publishers feel that the result of their labors will meet with the approval of every user, and that the Fayetteville Directory will fulfill its mission as a source of authentic information pertaining to the city.


Four Major Departments


The four major departments are arranged in the follow- ing order :-


THE ALPHABETICAL LIST OF NAMES of residents and business and professional concerns is included in pages 25 to 286, on white paper. This is the only record in existence that aims to show the name, marital status, occupation and address of each adult resident of Fayetteville, and the name, official personnel, nature and address of each firm and cor- poration in the city.


THE DIRECTORY OF HOUSEHOLDERS, INCLUDING STREET and AVENUE GUIDE, on pink paper, covers pages 289 to 336. In this section the names of the streets are ar- ranged in alphabetical order; the numbers of the residences and business concerns are arranged in numerical order under the name of each street, and the names of the house- holders and concerns are placed opposite the numbers. The names of the intersecting streets appear at their respective crossing points on each street. A feature of this section is the designation of tenant-owned homes.


THE BUYERS' GUIDE, beginning opposite page 336 and separately paged from 1 to 22, on goldenrod paper, contains the advertisements of leading manufacturing, business and professional interests of Fayetteville. The advertisements are indexed under headings descriptive of the business rep- resented. This is reference advertising at its best, and merits a survey by all buyers eager to familiarize themselves with sources of supply. In a progressive community like Fayetteville, the necessity of having this kind of informa- tion immediately available, is obvious. General appreciation of this fact is evidenced by the many reference users of this City Directory service.


THE CLASSIFIED BUSINESS DIRECTORY is included in pages 359 to 403, on white paper. This department lists the names of all business and professional concerns in al-


11


INTRODUCTION


phabetical order under appropriate headings. This fea- ture constitutes an invaluable and indispensable catalog of the numerous interests of the community. The Directory is the common intermediary between buyer and seller. As such it plays an important part in the daily activities of the commercial and professional world. More buyers and sellers meet through the Classified Business Directory than through any other medium.


Municipal Publicity


The Directory reflects the achievements and ambitions of the city, depicting in unbiased terms what it has to offer as a place of residence, as a business location, as a manu- facturing site and as an educational center. To broadcast this information, the publishers have placed copies of this issue of the Directory in Directory Libraries, where they are readily available for free public reference, and serve as perpetual and reliable advertisements of Fayetteville.


The Fayetteville Directory Library


Through the courtesy of the publishers of the Fayette- ville City Directory, a Directory Library was recently estab- lished in the offices of the Fayetteville Chamber of Com- merce, for free reference by the general public. This is one of more than 475 Directory Libraries installed in the chief cities of the U. S. and Canada by members of the Associa- tion of North American Directory Publishers, under whose supervision the system is operated.


The publishers appreciatively acknowledge the recog- nition by those progressive business and professional men who have demonstrated their confidence in the City Direc- tory as an advertising medium, with assurance that it will bring a commensurate return.

General Review


With a mellowed historical background, Fayetteville is one of North Carolina's most progressive and fastest grow- ing cities. Blessed, as it is, with an atmosphere of friend- liness and hospitality, unexcelled health and climatic con- ditions, splendid schools, churches, hospitals, banks, hotels, newspapers, good agricultural environments, excellent trans- portation facilities, a large trade territory and a diversity of industry, Fayetteville has all the factors required to make a well-balanced community.


HISTORY-For a number of years prior to 1791, Fay- etteville was the capital of North Carolina, and during this period several historical events occurred, such as North Carolina's Ratification of the Constitution of the U. S., the ceding of the State of Tennessee to the U. S. Government, and the chartering of the University of North Carolina, all of which was done during the year 1789. The town was originally known as "Campbellton" and was "laid out" in 1762 by a colony of Scotchmen who had settled in this area about 1739. Three years later, in 1765, another Scotch settlement was made one mile west of Campbellton and was named "Cross Creek." During 1778 these two communities were merged under the name of "Upper and Lower Camp- bellton," but changed to "Fayetteville" in 1783 in honor of General Marquis de LaFayette, the gallant Frenchman who aided America in gaining its independence, and at that time the city was incorporated. General LaFayette paid Fayette- ville a visit on March 4, 1825, but the naming of the town for him 42 years earlier was in recognition of his services to this country, and not to commemorate his visit, as many have erroneously believed.

INTRODUCTION


LOCATION-Fayetteville, the county seat and approxi- mately in the center of Cumberland County in the south- eastern part of North Carolina, is located on the west bank of the Cape Fear River, 115 miles northwest of Wilming- ton by water, 90 miles by highway, and 84 miles by rail.


TOPOGRAPHY-Fayetteville and contiguous territory is situated in a gently-rolling type of country, affording natural drainage, with a clay subsoil and a porous, sandy topsoil of such character as to prevent the accumulation of water puddles of long duration, or offensive mud after heavy rainfalls. Fayetteville is also at the eastern border of, and included in, the famous "Sand Hills" section of North Carolina, in which Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Sanatorium, and other well-known winter and health resorts are located.


CLIMATE-Though the varying seasons are well-de- fined, Fayetteville is not subjected to extremes of either hot or cold weather. Industrial plants are unhampered by climatic conditions, and sunstroke is an unknown quantity. Fayetteville's elevation above sea level ranges from 104 feet at the Market House to 170 feet on "Haymount" in the western part of the city. Its rainfall is well distributed, and during the past 40 years has averaged 48.1 inches per annum. During a slightly longer period the average annual temperature has been 61.7 degrees.


CHURCHES-Fayetteville might well be called a "City of Churches," having 28 white churches, and 18 colored. Ten denominations are represented, and some of the edifices would be a credit to a much larger city. The people go to church and Sunday school regularly and are always ready to extend a warm welcome to visitors.


HOSPITALS-Fayetteville has several modernly-equip- ped hospitals, all served by skilled physicians and trained nurses. Hospitals located in Fayetteville and vicinity are as follows: Highsmith Hospital, 125 beds; Pittman Hospi- tal, 100 beds; Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital, 12 beds; Fort Bragg Hospital (9 miles distant), 80 beds; N. C. Sana- torium (25 miles distant), 550 beds.


RECREATION-Fayetteville has a public nine-hole golf course; ten municipal tennis courts; three motion-picture houses, with a combined seating capacity of 1,760; a well- maintained Y. M. C. A., with swimming pool, gymnasium, recreation rooms, etc .; a city library; two bowling alleys, and five pool and billiard parlors. At Fort Bragg, nearby, there are facilities for many forms of recreation, such as polo, tennis, baseball, football, basketball, golf, fishing and horseback riding.


WATER SUPPLY-Fayetteville enjoys an adequate and unfailing supply of spring water flowing from the adjacent sand hills, analyzed four times a year, under daily supervis- ion and control, and its water supply has always proved to be unsurpassed from the standpoint of excellence and pur- ity. The City owns and operates its own water works, con- trolling three reservoirs, with a combined capacity of 900,- 000,000 gallons.


HIGHWAYS-Fayetteville is especially well-equipped with a network of improved highways. Eight of these are hard-surfaced, and radiate in all directions toward the population centers of the country. Included in these are U. S. Highways 15-A and 301, intersecting at Fayetteville, and


17


INTRODUCTION


which carry the bulk of motor traffic between the congested areas of the East and Florida winter resorts. As a stop- over point, few cities, if any, are more highly regarded by tourists, than Fayetteville.


AD VALOREM TAXES-Basis for property assessments for taxation, approximately 60% of actual value, and the ad valorem tax rates for all purposes are as follows: County and State, $1.81; City, $.65; School, $.14; Cemetery, $.01; total, $2.61 per $100.


BUS TRANSPORTATION-With two exceptions, Fay- etteville enjoys the most frequent bus schedules of any city in North Carolina. This service is rendered by the Queen City Coach Co., the Atlantic Greyhound Corp., and the Carolina Coach Co., all of which operate spacious, modern busses out of a new, well-appointed union bus station, cen- trally located. In addition, an adequate suburban bus serv- ice is available to and from populous centers in the outlying areas.


RAIL TRANSPORTATION-Fayetteville is located on the double-tracked main line of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, 214 miles south of Richmond and 466 miles north of Jacksonville. The same company operates three branch lines out of Fayetteville, reaching Wilmington and San- ford, N. C., and Columbia, S. C., together with intermediate points. The city is also served by the Aberdeen & Rockfish Railroad, connecting with the Seaboard Air Line trunk stem at Aberdeen, N. C., and the Norfolk Southern Railroad to Raleigh, Durham, Charlotte, Norfolk and other important centers.


RIVER TRANSPORTATION-Fayetteville is at the head of navigation on the Cape Fear River, making it the farthest inland port in North Carolina. The Federal Government has completed the canalization of this stream to Fayette- ville at an expenditure of $2,970,000, including locks, which provides for a year-'round minimum depth of eight feet of water and an average flow of 4,900 cubic feet per second. The City of Fayetteville, at a cost of approximately $95,000, has provided river terminals, including warehouse, loading

INTRODUCTION


platforms, crane, rail connections, etc. With such facilities available, and the substantial savings in transportation charges as may be effected by the water haul into Fayette- ville, this city makes an ideal location for the distribution of heavy commodities. It is believed that the old-time im- portance of the Cape Fear as a traffic artery will, in a measure, be regained.


LABOR CONDITIONS-Having a large rural population on which to draw, industry in the Fayetteville area is as- sured of a practically inexhaustible supply of native-born labor that is loyal, capable, easily trained, and willing to work for reasonable, "live-and-let-live" wages. American- Plan Open-Shop conditions prevail generally, and public sentiment overwhelmingly supports this policy.


INDUSTRY-While Fayetteville is primarily an agricul- tural city, industry is well represented by plants manufac- turing cotton yarns, silk and rayon products, curtains, drap- eries and upholstery, full-fashioned hosiery, chemicals and allied products, wooden containers, lumber and planing- mill products, veneers and plywoods, office and store fix- tures, metal products, stone, clay and glass products, waste, mattresses, cottonseed products, food and kindred products, etc. In addition, Fayetteville has five printing and pub- lishing plants, two cotton gins, and two steam laundries. The total industrial employment includes approximately 3,- 500 people, 70% of whom are male and 30% female.
