INTRODUCTION
High School in Wilson
Recreation
Wilson is well supplied with recreation facilities. These include a modern stadium, with a seating capa- city of 3,500, which is used for both baseball and foot- ball, as well as other outdoor events. Recreation Park. covering 15 acres, has a large swimming pool, lighted tennis courts, lighted softball diamond, baseball dia- mond, picnic areas, playground equipment and a lighted area for activities such as basketball, volleyball, shuf- fleboard and other sports. Two well equipped recrea- tional buildings were completed in 1958. The city also has three other parks and several neighborhood play- grounds. The city has a trained staff of full time re- creation workers. The Wilson Country Club recently completed a $55,000 remodeling job on its clubhouse. The club has an 18-hole golf course, swimming pool and tennis courts.
Library
In 1921 the Department of Literature of the Wo- man's Club established a free public library in Wilson. Since 1935 the library has been sponsored by the city and county. It is located in a modern building on the edge of the business district and has a collection of approximately 50,000 volumes.
Public Buildings
All executive and administrative offices of the city of Wilson are located in the Municipal Building, con- structed in 1940 at a cost of $127,000. The Wilson County Courthouse, constructed in 1924, is located in the center of the business district.
xxiii
INTRODUCTION
Government
Wilson is governed by a mayor and six aldermen who are elected for two-year terms. The administrative head of the city government is a city manager, who is appointed by the board of aldermen.
Retail and Wholesale Trade
Wilson is the retail shopping center for a large agricultural section. In 1957, retail sales in the city to- taled $37,443,000, according to "Sales Management Sur- vey of Buying Power." More than 300 retail establish- ments are available to serve the needs of the public.
Wilson's Future
It is pointed out by many that Wilson has a bright future, due to its ideal location, transportation facilities and agricultural and natural resources, all of which are important factors in attracting new industries. It would appear that Wilson is in position for industrial development, and many manufacturers are considering Wilson as a distributing center for their products, as eastern North Carolina can be so well served from this point. Many traveling men make Wilson headquarters on account of the convenience of working in and out of the city in serving eastern North Carolina. As the "King of Tobacco," Wilson may some day be engaged in the manufacture of many tobacco products. The people of Wilson are thinking in terms of expansion and commer- cial development and are most optimistic as to their city's future.
Wilson Chamber of Commerce
The Wilson Chamber of Commerce is recognized as one of the outstanding trade associations in eastern North Carolina. During the past dozen years it has been a contributing factor to the progress of Wilson and Wil- son County.
The Wilson Chamber of Commerce also serves as a clearing house and general bureau of information. Headquarters for the Chamber are located in its own building at 220 Broad Street.

Pay no money in advance to itinerant Directory Canvassers. We are led to mention this from the fact that certain parties have been fraudulently using our publications as specimens, and by that means collecting money in advance. Before signing an order, see that it has the name of the publisher of this City Directory printed thereon. We ask no payment until the work is delivered, and our solicitors have strict orders not to take advance payment for either advertising or subscriptions.
