The camomile has a reaIly de-
lightful fragrance, sweet and
clean.
If it happens that you can't get
eamomile, put two tablespoons of
vinegar in the last rinsing water.
This, too has a softening and light
ening effect.

long hair of monkey skin contrasts
smartly with short, light squirrel
nap. Muffs are a trife smaller and
more inclined to be round.
With or without its cape, the WIN
ter tailleur remains slender. Even
though jacket lines tend toward the
circular-as many of them do-they
mysteriously achieve a slimness of
outline which is distinctly youthful.

LITTLE BUSINESS FOR
FISH COMMISSIONERS
Opposition To Ocean Pound Net Fish
ing Only Incident To EnIiVen
Meeting :

The North Carolina Fisheries Com
mission Board met in Elizabeth City
Wednesday, Sept. IA and at Manteo
Thursday, Sept. 10. No business of un-
usual Importance was transacted and
the Board viii meet again at Morehead
City the first Theirsday in Noyember.
Attorney G. L. Abernethy, of New
Bern, and E. J. Lewis, of Atlantic, were
before the Board representing several
hundred fishermen in Carteret, Onslow,
Jones and Brunswick counties who are
opposed to the recent order permitting
ocean pound net fishing between Beau
fort and Bogue .Inlets. They want the
order amended to force the pound nets
mile out from shore, instead of 400
yards from shore as now provided. The
Board will give the petitioners a spe-
cial hearing at Morehead City in No
vember.
Certain Currituck fishermen were be-
fore the Board seeking an amendment
to the rule prohibiting the shipment of
fish out of Currituck County between
April Is and Oct. Is. Fishermen in
North River wish to be relieved of this
rule which was originally adopted for
the protection of Currituck Sound. The
matter will be heard at a future meet
ing.
Certain Perquimans county fishermen
were before the Board for permission
to fish pound nets between Stevens
Point and Bats Island to the middle
third of Albemarle Sound. Their petit
ton probably will be granted.
All members of the board were pres
ent at the meeting here. The members
are J. K. Dixon, Chairman, Trenton, N.
c.; E. H. Freeman, Wilmington, N. c.;
S. P. Hancock, Beaufort, n. c.; DIR. J.
G. Baum, Poplar Branch, N. c.; w. o.
Elizabeth City, N. G.
The meeting was held at Elizabeth
City upon the Invitation of w. o. saun-
ders and the Chamber of Commerce
rooms were placed at the disposal of the
Commission for its meeting. A vote of
thanks was extended the Chamber of
Commerce for it's courtesies.

THERE WERE NO AUTOS
In SIR WALTERS DAY
Devil To Pay If An Auto, a Gas Boat
or Stiff Collar Gets Into
This Picture

Nothing new under the sun is wanted
on Roanoke Island on Sept. 20, 1921,
and. for several days thereafter. The
stage is set for the filming of the big
moving picture production of the early
dian village has been 46dift. Old Fort
Raleigh has been reconstructed and
ships have been built to resemble the
ships of Sir Walter Raleighs time.
Hundreds of people have been drilled
and costumed to take the parts of
primitive Indians and early settlers. On
the morning of Sept. 20 these charac-
ters will begin to re-enact before the
camera the first episode of the coming
of the English to the shores of Amer
lea.
But" says w. G. Crosby, director of
the Division of School Extension of the
State Department of Education, ,''there
is one lurking danger, however, that is
giving the directors great deal of con-
cern. Just one person dressed in or
binary clothes could ruin a whole scene !;
just one modern boat, even far out on
the sound, might spoil a whole days
film; an automobile coming within range
of the camera would be nothing less
than a calamity. Even all directors and
will be in proper cos
tune, so that they may not spoil the
picture by inadvertently stepping into
it."
Mr. Crosby says, "It is necessary
therefore to earnestly request that
there be no visitors after September
10TH On that day a full dress rehear-
sal will be given and visitors will be
welcome. Later. than September 10Th
visitors will be extremely unwelcome,
and no person who has not part in
the particular scene being enacted and
filmed, and who is not in proper cos
tune will be allowed on the grounds"

WHAT MAY HAPPEN TO
ANY BOY ON A BIKE
Twelve -Year.o Elizabeth City Boy
Smashed Up Thru Failure To
Regard Traff1c Rules

His right arm dislocated and his right
shoulder joint crushed and splintered,
his left shoulder joint dislocated, rib
broken, his head cut and his body badly
bruised were just some of the things
that happened to Wilson Sanders, 12-
year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Sanders of this city, when he ran his
bicycle into an automobile in this city
last Saturday. He was run over by
car owned by DR.. F. G. Cooke, col
ored dentist, and driven by a colored
boy in DR.. Cookies employ. Eye wit
nesses exonerate the colored driver. 1t
is said that the boy t1rned out of Pool
St. on his bicycle at rapid. rate and
took the wrong side of the street. He
saw the automobile, which was moving
at a moderate speed when it was too
late and neither he nor the driver had
time to avoid a collision. Young San
ders is in a Norfolk hospital and his
complete recovery is expected. Joe
Collins, the Negro chauffeur who ran
over him, is under 81, ZOO bond pend
ing the outcome of the boys injuries.

DISTRICT FAIR
COMING ON FINE
Plenty of Amusements and
More Thought Given To
the Serious Side

The big live stock building for the
Elizabeth City District Fair is about
completed and will be in readiness two
weeks before the fair opens~on Tues
day, Oct 4. This building is 40 feet
wide by $50 feet long and is located be-
tween the grand stand and the stables.
1t makes notable addition to. the fair
grounds VII make stock
exhibit at this years fair the biggest
ever assembled here.
Many live stock exhibitors have
shown little enthusiasm for former
Elizabeth City fairs because suitable
provision for the housing and care of
live stock was not always provided
Poultry exhibitors will also find bet
ter provision for their exhibits this
year, a new lot of wire exhibition coops
having been ordered to supplement the
coops already on the grounds.
This years fair will undoubtedly be
the biggest and best ever held in east
ern North Carolina outside of the State
Fair, declares w. Ben Goodwin, the
secretary manager. And he ought to
know. The way applications for exhi-
bition space are coming in certainly in
dicates that there will be no dearth of
exhibits of improved. farm machinery,
home lighting, heating, water and sew
erage plants and other things in which
the rural resident is becoming more and
more interested.
At the same time the racing and
amusement features of the fair have
not been neglected. There will be two
big races daily; the purses aggregating
s., 400. And the management promises
real races; not the doctored stuff that
was pulled at a fair recently held in a
Virginia city.
Those who go to fair for diversion
will find much of interest on the
grounds this year. The Gordon Broth
ers will be there with their sensational
acrobatic stuff and a boxing kangaroo,
an animal novelty act differing from
anything ever exhibited here. The
Three Martells, said to be the best COM
edy bicyclists before the public to-day,
will give their exhibition twice daily in
front of the grand stand. And then
there is a high dive act that is little
better than anything of it's kind ever
shown in this section. Miss Quincy,
who will do the high dive stunt from an
SO-foot ladder into a four-foot tank of
water, is a fancy diver as well and will
give an interesting exhibition of fancy
diving preliminary to her high dive per-
formance twice daily. And then, after
the free attractions, comes the Bright
Light Shows, a carnival company with

BIG LIVE STOCK SHOW
TO BE HELD IN TOWN
Thorobred Cattle, Sheep, Swine and
Poultry From All Sections of
the State

With the arrival here this week of
A. c. Kinney of the State Department
of Agriculture, plans for the big State
Live Stock and Poultry Show to be held
here Nov. 29-30 and Dec. 1, are taking
definite. shape. The show is expected
to bring scores of thorobred cattle,
offered for sale here, say nothing of L.
500 to 1000 specimens of thorobred
poultry.
1t is proposed to hold the show in
the heart of the city instead of at the
fair grounds auI- committees are at
work to secure suitable buildings and
grounds. The committee has in mind
the big Office and store room formerly
used by Kramer Bros. & Co. on Martin
ST., for the poultry exhibit. The poul-
try exhibit alone requires 5000 to g.
600 feet of floor space.
Fearing's stables on Matthews ST.
with an ell running thru to Martin ST.
has been suggested for the live stock
exhibit. Between Fearing's stables and
the Kramer property is a vacant lot
also available.
1t is also proposed to erect a pen on
hibitio "a of select thorobreds to be
used in demonstrating the fine points of
thorobred stock to interested farmers.
The courthouse will be used for illus
trated lectures and other meetings in
cident to the big show.
To bring this show to Elizabeth City,
the Chamber of Commerce pledged a
of $1,000 to help defray
the expenses. Most of this money has
been subscribed, but a part of the
amount is still needed and must be
raised within the next few weeks. This
is the first time the annual State Live
Stock Meet has been secured for this
city and it is the first big forward move
ment for stimulating interest in better
live stock production in Northeastern
North Carolina.

have put their hands on a man who
knows something about large scale op-
erations of chicken thieves in Tyrrell
County. Theodore Harrington, young
white man, was arrested on a charge of
stealing 16 chickens from an aged Negro
couple, living near Columbia. He. was
Convicted and first sentenced to II
months on the roads. Judge D. o.
Newberry, who tried the case, finally
whitfield the penalty down to fine of
SIS and Harrington has appealed from
that Mr.. Twiddy who tells about the
case says that more than a thousand
chickens have been stolen from Tyrrell
County hen "houses in the last six
months.

HE SAYS SAND HILLS
CAN EASILY BE STOPPED

A. E. Cohoon, of Elizabeth City, who
was formerly connected with the Q. s.
Forestry Service on the Pacific Coast,
was down to Nags Head the other day.
While there Mr.. Cohoon observed the
formation of the sand hills which cover
the Nags Head beaches, and it was his
opinion that the progress of the hills
can be checked if not arrested alto
gether. Certain experiments carried
out on the Pacific Coast, whereby grass
were planted and grown so as to pre-
vent the shifting of the sand, leads Mr..
Cohoon to say that it can be done here
where conditions are similar.
