HIKERS CHANGE
NAME OF CLUB
To BE Called sBlaek Hank Hiking
Club--Discuss Plans for
Big Summer Hike.

The Black Hawk Prairie club
which has conducted all of its ac-
tiyities under this name since IFS
organization nearly two years ago
will hereafter be known as the
Black Hawk Hiking club. The new
name was adopted at a meeting
of the executive board last night
in. the home of John HaubeFg,
Twenty-third street and Thirteenth
avenue.
When the club was first organ
lied it was planned to become a
branch of the Chicago Prairie club.
1T later developed that the local
club preferred an independent Or
ganization and the word hiking
was substituted for prairie" by
the executive committee last night.
Plans for the big Hike" were
discussed and a committee CON-
posed of Agnes Koerber, Rock Is
land, Ina Dunlap, Moline, and r.
Up. Redfield, Davenport, was ap-
pointed to canvass the membership
for a decision of the date and OBJ
Elective of the expedition.
Several new members were en-
rolled and hiking suits were dis
cussed and exhibited at the meet
ing. It was decided to have the next
hike when the red-bud trees are in
bloom. The "red-bud hike" is held
each year and always proves to be
one of enjoyment for the mixers.
Refreshments we're served by Mr..
and Mrs Hauberg, following the

HILL PAVING JOB
WILL BE DELAYED

Moline's Fifteenth street paving
probably will not be started before
June l. This was Indicated last
evening at meeting oil, the city
council, when Mayor C. P. Skinner
declared that it would be inadvis-
abae to commence work before that
time. This did not meet with the
approval of some of the aldermen,
yet they were agreed with the
mayor that the possibility of dam
age to the foundation by the spring
rains probably could not be avoided
if the work was started earlier. Ac-
cording to the engineers estimate
the job will cost $116,48& The or
dinance presented last evening was
referred to the street and alley
committee, and it will have to lay
over for a week.
The mayor and clerk. were auth
orized to borrow $4,000. on tax an
ticipation warrants. This repre-
sents the amount of taxes that have
been collected to date. In normal
years Moline receives from $1Q0,000
to $4,000 in taxes by April l.

TO GIVE US A GLANCE
AT WAR IN THE CLOUDS
Seven Torpedo and Bombing Planes
to Come Thursday From
Naval Base.

Elizabeth City is to get its first
real glimpse Of what airplanc war
fare looks like Friday of this week
when seven planes from the Naval
Base at Norfolk will fly in battle for
nation over this city.
The squadron will be in command
of Lieutenant Gauly of the L. ).
Naval Air Service, and will arrive
Thursday night. One scout plane
will accompany the fleet. The scout
plane has Il wing span Of I'D feet
and is driven with two Liberty mo-
tors Of 400 horsepower each.
Posters and literature relative to
the progress of the Navy will be
dropped on Friday, the 9th, which
is Navy Day all over the country.
Lieutenant McGauly was at this
city in a big plane Monday, looking
over the anchorage. and is very well
pleased with the landing facilities
here.
The Torpedo plane is new devcl-
opmcnt and has been operating for
about six months. The planes COM
ing are part of the torpedo and
bombing plane squadron ut Hampton
Roads, which took part in the bomb
ing Of the Frankfort and other Ger
man ships IL few months ago in eX-
pcrimcnts off the Virginia capes.

WHO WILL SEND THIS
CITY'S PRETTIEST GIRL
The Prettiest Girl In Elizabeth City
May Be Prettiest Girl in
North Carolina

The prctticst girl in Elizabeth City
may be the pretticst girl in North
Carolina. The way to find out is to
send the citys prettiest maiden to
the Mardi Gras celebration in Raj
cigh on November s and 9.
The girl adjudgcd to be the pret-
test in attendance will be crowned
Queen of the AIardi Gras. To be
queen Of the Marble Gras will be no
small honor; for in those two days
Raleigh will entertain thousands of
visitors with a big street parade, a
street carnival, Il fashion show and
Il Marble Gras ball.
The Raleigh Chamber of Com
mercc has invited Elizabeth City to
send its faircst daughter to the Mar
di Gras. Who will select the fairest
daughter, and send her to Raleigh so
that the state may know what lovely
ones we have down here?
1t is announced that these young
ladies will be properly chaperoped
and looked after. 1t is needless to
say they will be looked after. A
pretty girl is never in need of at
tcndants, unless it is in Elizabeth
City where there are more pretty
girls than there are attendants.

ADVOCATES A MONUMENT
FOR THE BOIL WEEVIL

Farmers in North Carolina
should erect monument TO the boil
wccvil, as has been done at one place
in Georgia. says w. NJ. Fields, a
we'll known Leuoir County farmer
who was in Elizabeth City Tue sday.
The farmers of that section in
Georgia never could be taught TO
raise a money making crop until the
boil wccvil came and made 'em stop
raising cotton
Mr.. Fields says the cotton and to-
bacco crop is failure in his section
this year. lie plants more than 600
acres at La Grange in tobacco and
cotton. The rains have spoiled his
tobacco crop and the boil weevil got
his cotton.
tobacco and cotton have for
many years been an undependable
CROP" states Mr.. Fields. But it has
seemed as if all of us have thought
that these two crops were the only
ones worth raising. When the boil
weevil makes us stop raising cotton,
so that we can turn to vegetable and
truck crops that pay, we'll be bet
ter off. The sooner this happens, the
better"
