man will attempt to land" a 'hu-
man fish" with rod and reel, and
an aquacade, an innovation at
Wrightsville Beach last year which
proved most popular to the crowds
attending the Water Carnival.
August's feature will be a motor
boat weekend, devoted entirely to
motor boat racing, a colorfuI
dance and all the thrills and spills
that come with this fast and en-
tertaining sport.
IN September, shortly after the
middle of the month, the first an
nual Fishing Rodeo will be staged,
complete details of which will be
announced later in the season.
All of these events are being
staged under the auspices of the
Wrightsville Beach Board of Trade
which this year is becoming more
active than any similar civic pro-
motion body in this section.
But the association is not the
only group which is providing es-
pecial entertainment on the beach.
On July 4 the Carolina Yacht
club is staging an invitational sail
ing regatta which is expected to
attract the fastest sailing craft on
the southeastern Seaboard. Invita-
tons have been sent to owners of
speedy sailing craft all, over the
southe astern section of the nation
and indications are there will be
some of the most famous sailors
and their boats here for that week
end.
And in addition to these special
events the beach will, of course,
offer its usual myriad attractions
of swimming, sun bathing, bowling
dancing, fine dining, and nearby
facilities for tennis, golf, horse
back riding and hundreds of other
forms of entertainment and pleas
IRE.
In all, Wrightsville Beach is an
ticipating it's finest season in his
tory. This year it has greater ia
cilities with which to serve its visi-
tors and more fun to offer them
and from early season attendance
at the beach all indications point
to another record-breaking season
for the sea island beach of the
south. Al

wades waist-deep out into the roll
ing breakers and casts his line
far to sea. Here is the fisherman
who usually catches the big chan
mel bass or drum, the blue and
other fish which can give a whale
of a fight.
And for the angler who likes to
use a handline, a pole, a rod
and reel but who prefers to be
seated while waiting for a fish to
hit his line, there is deep sea fish
ing, probably the most popular of
the three forms of angling avail
able at Wrightsville Beach.
For these devotees of the Wal
tonian sport there r a number
of sturdy fishing craft which make
their headquarters at Wrightsville,
captained by men who have known
the beach, the inlets and the coasts
for years and who in the past
years have piloted thousands to
the fishing grounds and brought
them back, tired, safe, happy and
proud of their catches.
The charges made by these boat
men are very reasonable and in
clude bait, tackle and transporta-
ton. About the only thing the fish
ierman has to supply is the skill,
and he need not have a great
amount of that, for the fishing
grounds to which these boatmen
take their parties abound in
hungry schools of fish.
The Atlantic View Pier, on the
Northern extension, is expected to
be unusually popular this year. Its
facilities afford the fisherman an
opportunity to get his line out suf-
ficiently far to catch the finny
denizens which usually lurk in
deep waters and at the same time
he is able to play the fish as he
would from shore.
Blue fish, caught with a rod and
reel, will give a fisherman accus-
toned to fresh water angling, the
thrill of a life time, for this fish,
though it does not usually attain
great weight and size "a two-and-
a-half-pounder is a nice size CATCH
can really put up a fight. And
drum, or channel bass, which u.s.
ually range in size from six or
seven pounds up to ut 40
pounds, are an excellent test of
any anglers skill.
Other types of fish to be caught
at the beach include pig fish, king
mackerel, tarpon, trout, spots, and
for those who venture far at sea to
the Gulf stream there are baracu-
da, amber jacks, bonitos, pompano
and other game fish.
In addition to fishing and swim
ming in the surf, the vacationist
at Wrightsville Beach can have
still water bathing if he or she pre-
fers, for the widened and deepened
Banks channel affords excellent
swimming water.
For the youngsters there is crab
bling and here again there is a
variety of methods.
One is pier grabbing, in which
the crabber goes out on one of the
numerous piers which dot the
sound shore and drops owe the
side a number of lines weighted
with oyster shells and baited with
any tough meat. On a falling tide
the crabs come to feed and it is
not uncommon for a crabber to

For variety of fun and frolic, it's
Wrightsville Beach.
Here the vacationist finds every
thing, including that all-important
factor nowadays of a carefree life,
away from the turmoil of urban
life.
Of course there is the pleasure
.of bathing in the invigorating wat
ers of the blue Atlantic Ocean. In
addition, there are three types Of
fishing to be found at the beach
proper: surf casting, pier fishing
and deep sea fishing.
To the casual fisherman, pier
fishing has the greatest appeal,
for here he can stroll out on a long
pier extending well out into the
ocean, nonchalantly cast his line
in the water and usually can walk
home with a nice catch to show
the wife, kiddies and friends.
For the fisherman who is will
ling to expend a bit of energy
in exchange for real sport, there
is surf casting, in which the angler

nerve fibres and nerve centers, diminishes irritability when, as a result of the same deficiencies al- ready mentioned, the nerves are ir- ritable. And pr. Brady says that in his opinion famous nostrun of by- gone days got fulsorne testimonials from such gullible customers as lawyers, college professors, clergy men, etc., because the nostrum con- tained good deal of calcium Git was virtually glorif1ed cottage cheese) and cheese was very good food for the customers. The author also points out that the Weir Mitchell rest cure for "neurasthe- mia" in the eighties and nineties featured milk diet-the customers had to take milk and like 1t. Milk, like cheese, is an excellent source of calcium.
 While the period of growth and development, childhood and adoles- cence, is the time of greatest need of calcium, and this is the time when most young persons get in- sufficient calcium for optimal nutri- ton, nutrition authorities and well informed physicians now know that the calcium requirement. increases materially in the expectant and nursing mother. If this increased requirement. is not met by an in- creased daily intake of calcium and vitamin D the requirement. of the developing fetus and nursing infant will be satisfied anyway by robbing the mothers bones and teeth of call cium. For her own sake as well as the health and development of her baby, therefore, the expectant or nursing mother who Is well advised will take an extra ration of calcium and vitamin D throughout pregnancy and lactation.
 Since most foods rich in calcium are also rich in phosphorus-notably milk, egg yolk, beans, cheese. peas, peanuts, almonds, cabbage-one need not worry about the calcium-phos- phorus ratio in the system unless the diet is exceptionally restricted and then the matter is for the phy- sician to consider. Plain wheat wheat bran, wheat germ are all rich in phosphorus; so is lean meat. which is poor in calcium. however.
 To the best of present knowledge 1t is immaterial whether part or all of the calcium intake is derived from calcium in foods or from calcium taken as medicine. Of the numerous calcium compounds in medicinal form calcium glrconate and di- calcium phosphate appear to be the most suitable forms for supplement- ing the diet of child or adult. When ever calcium is taken in medicinal form it is important to take along with 1t a sufficient amount of vita. min D to insure assimilation anc metabolism of the calcium in the body. Without vitamin D very little calcium can be assimilated anc metabolized: with 1t at least half oi the daily intake of calcium Gin food or medicine) may be used.

Vegetable Cocktail |Rarebit

In the old days, mothers encoun- tered diffidence when fresh vege- tables were served on the family table. Under the impact of health education, however, a whole nation cultivated a taste for these natural foods to the extent of anticipating them in some form for virtually every meal. Nowadays, mothers are seeking ways to inject the taste es- sence of vegetables in many of their favorite food preparations to appeal to the family capacities. Here is an old favorite, rarebit, that acquires new summer taste thrill as a re- suit of the addition of vegetable juices.

Another differ ent idea is to use a wallpaper with . matching chintz for the curtains. Though not too usual, it is quite possible to find matching patterns through a decor ating department of a store or your own decorator. In such a case, the bedspread should be plain; one of the plain cro. cheted nets is good, or any plain color that picks up a color in the wallpaper W and curtains. Again because the walls and curtains are both patterned 1t is wise to use . plain rug or car- pet. having a little texture interest but of one color.

A fabric that is not washable should be dry cleaned, though this may not wholly return the color or remove the stain.
 Q. Is it possible to can fruit juices for later jelly making?
 A. Yes; jelly from juice stored 6 months may have as good texture as that made from the fresh juice, though the color and flavor may not be quite so good, especially in the case of the red fruits. When such canning is desirable, fill hot steril- ized galss jars with the juice, with out relocating it. Partially seal. Place on a rack in water bath at 1855 degrees F., simmering tempera- ture. The water should reach an inch or two above the jars. Bring the water again to simmering tenn perature and keep it there for 20 minutes if the jars are of pint or quart size. Complete the sea at once and store the jars in cool, dry place protected from light.

In fact, he says he thinks anybody is entitled to a mad" day now and then. But he thinks also that if mad" days are indulged in too fre- quently, if you donv'eldp te ao uuently, if you don't develop philosophy for coping with irritating circumstances without becoming ir- ritated, you'll have an unpleasant face.

 OF CALCITIM

Calcium increases the force of the heart beat and tends to dilate the coronary arteries or oppose spasm or contraction of the coronary arteries, and is therefore beneficial in many cases of heart disease, es- pecially when the individual has calcium shortage which most Ameri- cans have as a result of refined diet, insufficient consumption of milk and cheese, insufficient intake of yitamir1 D or insufficient exposure of naked skin to direct sunlight.
