The clipping is of the article "The Green Park: Where Charlotteans Spent Their Summers" by George W. Bradham. The article is about the Green Park Inn, which was then on its ninety-fourth anniversary. Bradham describes the history of the inn and its owners over the years. He explains the process of visiting in the early twentieth century and some of the functions that the inn would perform. There's also a section where Bradham explains the ways that the Green Park Inn would get ice and water for the guests. The clipping includes three images with descriptions. The first image is of the Green Park Inn from its driveway. The description states that the first picture is all of the workers who built the Green Park Inn. The second image is of the Green Park Inn after being built. The description states that the second image was taken in 1920 and mentioned the Eastern Continental Divide.
