"My favorite dish," Bill said, let
ting out a long sigh OF relief that
brought faint smile to Leath's lips.
"CHuNKY," Leath said, will you
entertain our guest while I prepare
dinner"
Sure, Nom. Would you like to
play cars, Bill?"
Sure" So for the next twenty
minutes they turned the living-room
floor into a maze of roads and high
ways. Toy autos zoomed and crashed.
Bills coat came off, and his hair got
mussed. Chunky had the time of his
life.
Once Bill glanced toward the
dining room and caught Leath watch
ing them, her eyes mellow and
thoughtful.
The dinner was huge success,
and even Leath discovered it was
fun to have a guest. She was agree
ably surprised to learn that Bill
could talk intelligently about SUBJ
jects other than ball games and track
meets. and when she told him some
thing of her work at the bank. he
was keenly interested. Chunky
didn't even scrape the peas out of
the stew, but ate them with apparent
relish.
Finally. Leath asked Bill about
his war service and he sketched some
of his experiences as a fighter pilot
in the Pacific.
"Pssst," Chunky whispered at this
point, when his mother went to the
kitchen for coffee. When he caught
Bills eye. he put his chubby hand
up to his own ear and tapped it.
Bill caught on. but shook his head.

Chunky puckered his mouth dis
gustedly. If this wasn't the ideal
time for Bill to tell how he stam-
peded the fuzzy-wuzzies by Tapping
his ears. well, he didn't know an
opportunity when he saw one.
During coffee, Bill cleared his
throat and began, Mrs. Brewer r"
Leath smiled. MY first name is
Leath - Bill"
"Leath," Bill said, II have two
tickets for the Ice Follies,' for to-
night. Will you 60 with me?"
"Oh, no thanks. Bill. Mrs. Webster
has gone home. and l have some
work to do"
"It's a wonderful show, I hear.
Can't you call Mrs. Webster back?"
"Sure you can, Mom," Chunky
said quickly. He sensed that maybe
nature was taking its course, after
all. "She said she'd come any time
you wanted her."
Leath was weakening. 1t was a
long time since she'd been to show.
"Well -"
"It's settled then," Bill said.
1T WAS long after midnight when
Chunky was awakened by voices in
the living room. which was down
short hall from his own room. He
slipped out of bed and stealthily
opened the door. He could see Bill
sitting on the sofa. twirling his
mothers hat with the red feather,
on his finger.

she seemed to be nervously pacing
the floor. 81 tell you, my soul inside

This last with a proud nod of her
head.
"SURE, you're earning as much as
the average man, but you're burning
yourself out, where man could take
the same job in stride and scarcely
be winded. That's the trouble with
you. Leath; you're mentally trying
to squash all of the men in the world
because one of them gave you
rotten deal - and you're being too

Oooooh. Chunky thought: what

BIG BUSINESS
Rich North ern Markets
Taking All OF Castle
Hayne Production
BY JACK COWIE
Staff Writer

Northern markets are currently
receiving flowers from fields in
North Carolina within IL hours af-
ter being cut as Tar Heel bulb
growers take advantage Of post
war delivery o. freight by plane.
Innovated by the North Carolina
Bulb Growers association, delivery
of cut flowers by plane is cur
rently being operated on twice
weekly basis.
Florists in northern cities, where
WINERY blasts have kept the ground
frozen, are taking advantage of
plane deliveries to the extent of
accepting some $1,000 dozen, or
378, 200 single cut flowers weekly.
According to Adrian I.udeke,
president of the association, flowers
are cut in the morning, boxed IS
dozen to the container, and shipped
in the afternoon. A plane-load con-
sists Of about $50 boxes or 5000
pounds.
Majority of the flowers are cut
in thes Castle Hayne area of Will
mington, and shipped by members
of the association on cooperative
arrangement.
Members of the association meet
the night before shipment is to be
made and agree on the number of
blossoms they will ship.
The following morning a plane is
ordered from the Newark, N. j.,
offices of the Air Cargo Trans
port corporation with a definite
time set for loading. The plane
sets down at Bluethenthal Airport.
is loaded and within matter of
minutes is on it's way.
Regular Routes
Definite routes are followed in
shipments with 10 cities being
covered on three different sche-
dulles. Route one calls for stops
at Washington, New York, Boston
and philadelphia; route two Pitts
burgh, Cleveland and Cincinnati
and route three Cincinnati, Indiana.
polls and Chicago.
Cost of freight per load runs
from $500 to $500, Ludeke said. He
further explained the loss of flowers
has been negligible as the planes
are kept at proper temperature
during the trip.
Additional loads are trucked
through to New York markets, the
association head pointed out. That
trip alone. he said, takes at least

Air Shipment Held Boon
To Cut Hower Growers

10 hours after the flowers have
been loaded.
At the present time, shipments
consist of jonquils, iris and daffo-
dis although Dutch tulips, peonies
and gladioli will be shipped in
season. The shipping season for
cut flowers extends from late Dec
ember until July.
The Castle Hayne area, where
the greater portion of the flowers
are raised in open fields, is about
eight miles from Wilmington. 1t
was started some 20 years ago as
colonization experiment by Hugh
McCrea, Wilmington real estate
developer.
Each man init:aliy was allocated
10 acres of ground on which to raise
flowers and truck. During the years
the project has spread into an
association with many of the origi-
nal "flower-farmers" now plant
ing more than so acres each.
Ludeke, as did many of his
associates, came to this country
from Europe with little more than
solid knowledge of flower cul.
ture. Holland bulbs were. planted
during the first years Of the pro-
ject, but today Ludeke is the only
large grower of that specie.
The bulbs die easily, he explain
ed, making it necessary for them
to be continually replaced. During
the war, shipments from Holland
were at standstill, making it
impossible for stocks to be re-
plenished.
Air shipments of the flowers
average about $4,000 in value per
load, the grower explained. Many
flowers remain on the fields Uncut
he pointed out due to the fact that
each blossom must be cut by hand
and farm labor is hard to obtain.
At the present time some $50
