PARADISE INS SANDWICHES Still a favorite at the Buckroe Amuse¬ ment Park, the merry-go-round is one of the oldest in the state and by far the most beautifully decorated. Bewildered residents survey the damage caused by the Great Hurricane of ' 36. The Paradise. Inn was a local landmark until the re-developement project began in the early ' 60 ' s. With the boat pier, in the background, the bathers at Buckroe in 1905 wear ttye latest in the one piece bathing suit. If you ' ll look closely you will see that some daring young ladies even got theirs wet.

Va. PHOEBUS KEEPS ITS SMALL TOWN ATMOSPHERE Phoebus, Virginia. When we think of today ' s Phoebus, we think of, Put Phoebus on the Map, or Phoebus Day or Little Chicago Phoebus has managed to do what many towns in today ' s world have not. It has kept its individuality and small town atmosphere. From its beginnings as a railroad station in 1885, Phoebus became a town in 1900 and kept its status until 1952. Since then, Phoebus has been a part of Hampton, but has retained her uniqueness and individuality. Cast in the shadow of Fort Monroe, the small town has kept the look of the past and stirs a sense of civic pride that other towns envy. Through the help of Luther Jackson, the 76 Spectre would like to share some Reflections of Phoebus ' past. Intricate sculpture work decorated the old American Theatre. The quaintness of Mellin Street is literally the same as it was in the early 1900 ' s ex¬ cept that the trolley cars are now gone. The Hygia Restaurant on Water Street was once one of the most fashionable dinning establishments in Tidewater. 9
