MORE PRISONERS
PLACED IN CAMP

Thirty additional Nazi war pris-
oners have arrived at the intern
ment camp on the Carolina Beaen
road to boost to 280 the number
sent here from Camp Gordon, AL
gusta, Ga. to work in fertilizer
plants and dairy in the Whining
ton area, it was announced Sat-
urday by Capt. Ray Stanley, Camp
Gordon public relations officer.
The additional prisoners were
brought here to work in other
plants which have not been able
to obtain labor, he said. At pres,
ent, 234 out of the $50 interned
here, are employed in five tertl'
lizer plants and at one dairy
Those not assigned to work are
making Improvements at the IN
ternment camp just opposite Mai
fit Village.
The first indication that the Naz
prisoners of war would be pernla'
nently stationed here was given
by Captain Stanley. Due to the
progress made in setting up the
camp, and the cooperation recelV'
ed from all concerned, the camp
will probably become a perma-
nent installation" he said.
Official reports in connection
with the internnnent camp have
previously indicated that the war
prisoners would be assigned here
only temporarily.
In a survey Saturday morning
OF the work projects at which the
German war prisoners are assign
ed in this area, Captain Stanley
said he found them doing eXcel-
lent work" He reported that EN-,
ployers said they were pleased
with the work of the prisoners
At the fertilizer plants, he re.
ported finding the prisoners al

in charge of a diary barn. &,

LETTER BOX
CASTLE HAYNES
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
notice frequently that the
name of our interesting neighbor-
ing community is published as
Castle Hayne. It should be Castle
Haynes. The s has gradually been
dropped, but it should be retained.
The name is from the residence
of Capt. Roger Haynes, promi-
nent colonist who settled there.
Hayne is rather a South Carolina
name. The well known poet. Paul
Hamilton Hayne, lived in that
State. Let us still have Castle
Haynes.

ANN SOTHERN IN FILM SHOWING

As the effervescent Maisie, Ann Sothern finds herself in another side-splitting kettle of fish in M-G-Ms Swing Shift Maisie," which is the feature at the Capi- tol.
 Deserting vaudeville to become worker on the assembly line of great airplane factory, she dons overalls, but nonetheless manages to involve herself in a series of new adventures.
 Maisie lands job in aircraft work. After she saves pretty Jean Rogers from a suicide attempt she falls in love with handsome test pilot, James Craig. Miss Rogers wants him too. Result, Miss Rogers accuses Maisie of sabotage. Compli- cations result, but in the end the ex-showgirl with the heart of gold wins out, and all ends happily, ex- cept for the "villainess" of the picture.

 FULL OF DANCES

Those people who have consider ed the ballet as too "arty' are due for sudden awakening when they see Katherine Durham and her in- ternationally famous troupe of dancers perform in 20th Century Fox's smash musical, Stormy Weather" at the 20th Century.
 While it is true that Miss Dun ham incorporates all the grace and aesthetic beauty of the ballet into her routines, she manages to keep pace with the present fast tempo of modern music in her original dances.
 One of the outstanding numbers is taken from the song of the film. Lena Horne, sensational singer of torch b al a ds, sings the words while in a foggy background Miss Dunhams boys and girls go through the intricate routine in- terpreting the lyrics.

Ancients On The Job

The part that people in middle age and older
have been taking in the war effort has Seen
much greater than is generally known. ASpe-
cial census survey reveals that 100000 in
dustrial workers forty-five years and older
were added to payrolls in the year ending
October !, 1913. The survey further shows
that about hal of this number were women
and 100000 of the total were over sixty-five
1t has long been our contention that no per-
son is too old to work if physically fit and
mentally sound. This census survey offers ir-
REPUTABLE proof thereof.
The idea that elderly folk are capable only
OF forecasting rain by twinges of rheumatism
is knocked into a cooked hat by this showing.
Figures are not available but it's undoubt-
eddy true that the percentage of absenteeism
in their ranks is much smaller than in lower
age brackets.

to tell readers of this newspaper that the

diminutive of Victory in Europe day.
Because this war is to end eventually on
opposite sides of the earth and not by single
victory, it would be incorrect to use the V

the victory over Japan, will it be proper to
