Chapel Hill Chaf

One of the best newspaper
narratives | have read in a long
time is Oscar Coffin's report of
how his car-with himself at
the wheel-ran into the wagon
of Roy King, a farmer who lives
out toward Durham. For Mr..
King it was a rear-end collision,
for the professor of journalism
a radiator-and-headlight colli-
sion. 'The poor things face"
Mr.. Coffin is speaking of the
front of his car-"was all push
ed in except for its left eye,
which was cooked to high
heaven" The report pays tri-
butte to the courtesy and for
bearance of Mr.. King, and to the
virtues of Roland McClamroch,
Ph.D.. as a motoring companion.
But there's no use trying
to reproduce the story 1t can
be found on page six of the

Graham-NelsOn Road
Bids Are Opened for the Section in
Alamance County

Bids for the Alamance county
section of the new state high
WAY from Graham through
Chapel Hill to a connection with
No. 10 at Nelson were opened by
the highway commission in Ra-
leigh Tuesday. For grading
Nelle Teer was the low bidder
1868, ,083), and for structures E.
A. Wood ($72,225).
This Graham Nelson road will
constitute an alternative route
for through east-west traffic be-
tween Greensboro and Raleigh
and will bring Chapel Hill eight
miles closer to the capital.
The preparation of the con-
tract for the work between Ala
nance county and Carrboro has
been delayed because the exact
route has not yet been fixed. The
engineers are now making sur
veys, at this end, for a line that
will cut off the Calvander curve
between Carrboro and White
Cross. They hope to reduce the
distance between these two
points and effect a saving of sew
eral thousand dollars in the cost
of construction
Work on the section from
Chapel Hill to Nelson has been
in progress since last fall. 1t
is expected that the entire road,
Graham to Nelson, will be open
for traffic by next October or
November.

he asked, and was persuaded on
ly with great difficulty that he
had ever been told of it before.
He reached the church half an

proceeded in due order. When
it was done he and his family
drove around town, and then he
said he thought he would go
home and go to sleep. But, his
wife reminded him, you have

dinner? he asked. He was in

ner in honor Of the visiting

4:3O P. M. MAIL
Is ESTABLISHED
First-CIass Matter Now Carried
To Durham to Catch the
Evening Trains
SHIFT TO $3.50 MAY COME

Chapel Hill now has late af-
ternoon outgoing mail. The or
der of the postmaster general
for the despatch of first-class
mail from here to catch the early
evening trains out of Durham,
went into effect yesterday. The
closing hour at the post-office
is 4::30 P. M.
This 4:30 despatch is for
first-class mail only" said Post
master Herndon yesterday. 'The
letters will be sent over by bus
and will be sorted out by the
Durham post office in time for
the evening trains. They will
go both east and west, to Ra-
leigh and Greensboro. A north
bound letter bearing air-mail
postage will catch the plane
leaving Greensboro a little while
before midnight and arriving in
New York before breakfast"
TheN decision to establish the
new outbound mail came as
result of petitions sent from
Chapel Hill to the postal authori-
ties in Washington. An inspec-
tor came to investigate the need
for the improved service. After
comforting with Mr.. Herndon,
Colonel Pratt. and other citizens.
he was convinced that the vol
ume of outbound letters was
great enough to justify the late
afternoon despatch, and he so re-
ported to headquarters in Wash
ington.
1T may be" says Mr.. Hern-
don, that later on the closing
hour will be moved from 4:3O to
$3.50 P. M. AS far as our facili-
ties and the transportation are
concerned, that will be feasible,
and it will be more convenient to
the public; but, so far, the Durs
ham office considers that the
earlier arrival there is necessary
to the sorting of the letters in
time to catch the early evening
trains. If the postmaster in
Durham finds that he needs less
time for the sorting than he now
thinks is required, we will be
able to shift the closing time to
$3.50"
