Cathy looked at Bills taut,

Her voice broke.
Mark turned sharply on Bill,
his eyes blazing
"And who the heck are you
that you had to marry a girl like
Cathy secretly? Are you so darn

have to be arranged in secrecy.
And how in thunder did you ever
get a girl like Cathy to consent

"Mark-please! You don't un-

Mark turned to her and all the

"No, I don't understand, Oar

"It's not your affair" began

FARE INCREASE
HEARING PUT OFF
Date 10 Be Set Later For
Consideration OF Coach
Fare Increase

RALEIGH, July %. -P- The
nearing date on a petition of three
North Carolina railroad companies
TO increase coach fares has been
postponed in order to let the COM
panles amend their petition.
Originally scheduled for August
8 before the State Utilities Com
mission, the hearing was postpon-
ed until a date to be set later.
In ordering the postponement,
the Utilities Commission pointed
out that the companies have pend
ing before the Interstate Com
merce Commission a request to
increase interstate coach fares. In
view of this request, the Utilities
Commission expects the three rail-
road companies to amend their
state petition.
The petition to increase basic
coach fares in this state seeks per-
mission to boost the fares from
1.65 cents a mile to 90 cents a
mile for civilian travel.
The three companies pointed out
in their petition that such an in
crease would place intrastate
coach rates in North Carolina on a
basis with interstate coach fares.
The petitioners are Seaboard Air
line Railway, Southern Railway
company, and Atlantic Coast Line
Railroad.

EGG PROJECTION

Egg proGucors in the Motcnuska Valley arc fcco3 ,-ith q moro corpott i've mcrlcot than over before, because of tho expanding Air freight. Lt the present tiao eggs cen bo flown in cheaper than the N.V.F.C.A. has been supplying them. These airoorne eggs can reach the Ala skan marke ts in as fresh a condition as eggs supplied locally. This means but one thing. If egg produs cers ri sh to keep eggs on he market they must compete with Airborne egg prices. With feed prices as they are, it can put the local egg producer to a great disad- vantage as anyone can see. Poultrynena are therefore advised to watch the market closely before investing too heavily in this field.
 Thus Tar the price of feed has held up, but indications are that thes SC may drop some time later in the year. However ,any drop in feed prices will be as advanta- geous to the egg producer in the States as to local poultrUnen.
