NORTH BEACH, Md. Aug. S1.--
The gay spirit Of carnival, which
has pervaded North Beach all week,
will continue over Labor Day with
additional thousands of visitors from
washington joining in the merri-
ment.
The carnival is being staged under
the, auspices of the North Beach
Volunteer Firemen. 1t opened last
Sunday with a parade through
North Beach ending at Chestnut
Street and Chesapeake Avenue,
where the outstanding events Of the
carnival are presented nightly.
The carnival grounds have been
gaily decorated and a brilliant cleo
trio lighting system has been in
stalled to illuminate the territory.
New Kinds Of Fun
Each day new kind of "whoopee"
is in vogue. Every day this week
was set aside to allow the resort s
neighbors to join in the festivities.
For instance, Monday was NORTH
Beach Day." Tuesday was "Chesa-
peake Beach Day." Thursday was
Calvert County Day, etc.
Added attractions are offered at
Chesapeake to provide additional
amusement for the throngs attend
ing the carnival.
Three extra trains win be placed
on the Chesapeake Beach Railway
Company line Labor Day to accom-
modate the crowds.
Chesapeake Beach has leaped into
prominencee in scientific circles as
the home Of the .,'lost atypus," one
of the most mysterious and color
full Of North American tarantulas.
Famous Spider
For nearly century this spider
has mystified scientists. 1t first
was described from a specimen
found in a glass jar In the Ma
tional Museum of Paris in 1886.
Then it disappeared and was not
seen again until 10 years ago when
one was found on Plummer's Island
in the Potomac.
A few weeks ago Herbert Bar
bour, of the staff of the National
Museum, noticed a strange creature
apparently trapped in the deep
heel print Of woman'S shoe on
the sandy beach.
Barbour, bounced on the jet
black. velvety creature with bright
orange legs and took 1t to Clarence
r. Shoemaker, the museums ex-
pert on spiders.
Shoemaker pronounced it to be
the lost atypus."
