carried by the wind against the
over-sensitive membranes of
eye, nose and throat.
1t comes Usually to people
who, besides having sensitive
mucous membranes, are tired
or nervous; and every attack
makes the sufferer more liable
to another. Several plants such
as goldenrod, dandelion and rag
weed are chief offenders in
causing hay fever.
Various cures have been at
tempted. The best cure is re-
moval to the mountains or to
the seashore, far away from the
pollen. Various drugs have
proved helpful, but the effect of
these is only temporary. Some
relief is provided by
cauterizing the sensitive area of
the mucous membrane. Some
doctors inoculate the patient in
order to build up resistance to
the disease. Another method OF
warding off hay fever is to wear
a mask, provided with a filter,
in all areas where pollen is apt
to be carried about by the wind.
Hay fever belongs to the group
Of allergic diseases, in which
a person becomes i'll because of
special sensitivity to a certain
food or drug or heat or cold or
pollen or dust or even sunlight.

ton Of the old adage that zone
mans meat is another mans
poison" In no case is this truer
than in the case of allergy.

Charlton Tobacco Marker
Slated To Close Friday

The market was established in
1897 and during its so years it
has grown steadily with the re-
suit that today it is one of the
most important on the Border
belt. In its early days, a bell
rang to note the opening and
closing OF the Gays sales. There
was no bank and the sales tick.
cts were divided among the
merchants who, in turn, paid
the growers.
In addition to tobacco, Clark
ton offers a market for peanuts,
through E. j. Cox, and a sales
outlet for peanuts, chickens and
eggs through the Bladen Peanut
and Produce company.
All the warehouses in sClark-
ton are on paved streets and the
city, prior to the opening of the
season, completed a large drain
age project, conferred on the
thoroughfares in the rear of the
warehouses, used in shipping to-
bacco.
The Clarkton schools have an
enrolment Of 525. The town has
three churches, Presbyterian,
Baptist and Methodist. The
Presbyterian church was organ.
lied in 1929 and the father Of
Woodrow Wilson was one of its
pastors.
One Of the most attractive
scenes in Clarkton is the avenue
Of beautiful trees, planted by
DR.. George L. Clark, along the
highway from the school to the
business district. The communi-
tvs showplace is Oak Forest,
which was the summer home of
Anna Matilda Mcneil Whistler,
whose portrait by her son is
world famous.
The current year has brought
Clarkten several new CONNER
cial buildings, a number of new
businesses and a large group OF
new residences. It has a Rotary
club, a Woman's club, and an
American Legion post.

attractiveness.
People are expressing to us
appreciation of the attention the
Wilmington Star-News in giving
to Southeastern North Carolina.
We are sensing that the people
of this section are appreciative
and friendly and courteous.
They are the kind of folks who
can build within themselves a
great pride in their section, the
kind of pride that will result
in it being the pride of the
entire state. Actually these peo-
pie are talking that among
themselves. Soon all North Car
olinians will be talking it. There

HlLLCREST PROJECT
APPROVED BY CITY
Rents OF Project Ia Range
From $12 To $27
Monthly

Members of the city council
yesterday voted approval of the
transfer of the ZIG Negro hous-
ing units in the Hillcrest pro-
ject from the United States to
the Wilmington housing au-
thority for a 45-year period,
pursuant to action by Congress
transferring the title to the prop
critics.
Humphrey Marshall, Jr., execu-
tive director of the authority
said the rents in the projects
would range from $12 to $27 a
month with a $18 monthly aver
age. Veterans would be given
preference until July 1, 1850!
Of the $4,000 a year to be de-
rived from gross rents 10 per
cent would be paid the city and
county on a ratio based on exist
ing tax rates in lieu of taxes
under terms of the councils ac-
ton.
The Hillcrest project would be
used as a slum clearance project
to replace 216 Negro dwellings
already condemned by the city
building inspectors department.
Only families with an annual
income of $3.50 or less would
be considered for the project, ac-
cording to Marshall, who said
that the five veterans now liv-
ing in the project and having
higher incomes. could have their
evictions waived. There are II
families with higher incomes than
$3.50 now in the project and Il
veterans families there.

QUESTIONS)
WHAT is THE G
TOWER0

On top of a lofty hill, near
Lake Wales, Florida, in a park
and bird sanctuary, stands a
beautiful tower 2O5 feet high,
a shaft of rolor rising above the
green of the surrounding forest.
1t is built of Florida stone and
pink Georgia marble.
Round the tower at the TOP
is a marble band on which are
carved flamingos, cranes and
other birds native to Florida.
The grillwork at the windows
represents animals and plants
OF Florida. The brass door tells
the story of the worlds crea-
ton as it is reported in the
Bible. Surrounding the tower is
a moat, crossed by marble
drawbridges and frightening in
front into a mirror-like pool.
In the tower are seventy-one
beautifully toned bells forming
one of the largest carillons (sets
of chimes) in the world. Four
times a week the carillon-master
gives public recitals and visi-
tors come from all over the
state to listen to these magnifi-
cent concerts.
The Singing Tower and the
bird sanctuary in which it
stands were presented to the
people Of the United States on
February 1, 1929, by Edward
w. Box, a philanthropist who
started life as a poor immigrant
boy from the Netherlands and
rose to great wealth in America.
Mr.. Box died in 1880, and lies
buried in a crypt at the base of
the tower.

Observation-Disclosures, grown

rendered by the Wilmington
Star-News in keeping it's asso-
ciate editor touring the section
il search of news of current
merit.
Diversification is not an easy
thing to state. It means getting
away from a single money crop.
But it means industry as well
as agriculture. It means mar
kets, as well as production. It
means cash every month in the
year.
We prefer to think of diversi-
fication as a new income for
each month in the year. That
necessitates a farmer having
something to sell and actually
selling it every month. 1t is not
satisfied by the ability of a far
mer to save to the degree that
he has cash every month. It
must be new cash and a new
income each month. The goal
of diversification is not a sue
cessful farmer; it is a diversi-
fled farmer. If we can have di-
versified farmers we can in
crease the number of successful
farmers.
Confining ourself to what is
marketed, and forgetting what
is produced, we have encounter
ed tobacco, sweet potatoes, Irish
potatoes, strawberries, grapes
and livestock of all kind. We
have been in but a small part

MOREHEAD CITY, Oct. IL
A check up with local fishing
guides and menhaden process
sing plant operators here this
week revealed that more than
100 sailfish were landed off the
Carteret Coast during the 1947
season.
Sixteen of the largest fish of
this species were landed with
rod and reel and that was an
all time record in local sports
fishing annals. The remainder,
approximately 80 small sailfish
ranging in size from Is inches
to three feet in length, were
caught in purse seines with
menhaden. The latter nets were
operated by crewmen aboard
Beaufort Fisheries menhaden
fishing boats.
Son one day one of our boats
brought in more than so small
sailfish,' said William Potter of
the Fisheries plant. "'They were
small and we could not help
catching them as they were in
schools with the menhaden.
They were killed as they were
brought aboard" he added.
The face that SO many baby
sails have been landed off the
coast here this year has led
many to believe that these fine
sportsfish are migrating to
North Carolina for spawning
purposes. Just where they may
spawn however, whether in
ocean or sound waters is not
known.
In addition to the many baby
sails that have been taken, l
large ones have been landed by
sportsmen fishing with rod and
reel in waters close to Cape
Lookout and Atlantic Beach.

RICE TRAMPLES

Rice Institutes football team,
a disappointment in its first two
starts, began living up to pre-
season promise today, routing a

eleven 80 to 0 before $4,000.
The Rice victory was expected,
but not by such a margin. and
coach Jess Neely's Owls surprised
even their fondest admirers with
a furious outburst of power.
So strong was the Rice defense
that Tulane never got inside the
Owl 35-yard line. The Houston
ians pushed the New Orleans
eleven off balance in the opening
minutes and began their con-
tinuing march. Slippery George
Walmsley got a 16-yard run to

quarterback spot on the next
play,
The Scintillating Walmsley.

team at 1863 pounds, slithered
through the Green Wave eleven
times for a net Of 121 yards-an
average of II a carry.
The rice scoring chores were
we'll divided with Huey Keeney
in the forefront. He did a dizzy
sideline dance for 80 yards and
one touchdown and hit Tobin
Rote with a pin-point pass for
another.
Walmsley, who missed one
touchdown by inches in the open
ing series Of plays, got his six
pointer later by Gaping a r.
yard downfield march, shedding
three tacklers as he skirted his
right end.
