Willie-meet me in the Sonophone
Studios in the Brill Building; can
you do that?"
"Okay, Three-thirty. I'll be
there"
Willie slammed the receiver so
hard that the telephone went clat-
tering off the table to the floor.
He took off the civilian clothes
into which he had changed rs soon
as he came home. and dressed in
his uniform. He had two caps, a
fairly new one, and the cap he AL
ways wore at sea, the gold trim Of
which was tarnished dull green.
He selected the old cap and put a
fresh cover on it. which set cff
more strikingly the tarnish of the
ornaments.

CHRISTMAS TREE
IS ERECTED
ON R.R. STREET

Tabor City merchants this week
gave the town some Christmas ap-
pearance by erecting a giant holly
tree on Railroad street gaily be-
decked with an array of colored
lights.
No street lighting will be put
up in Tabor City this year but
many local businessmen felt that
some symbol of Christmas should
be displayed in Tabor City and
prompted the efforts to have the
big holly tree erected.
Tide Water Power Company in
past seasons gave the town the
electricity which the Christmas
lights burn. Carolina Power and
Light Company, the present own
ers of the lighting contract here,
do not make the electricity free to
the town and that along with the
fact that the lights now on hand
for Christmas decorations are in
a puor state of repair, prompted
the decision to skip the lights this
season.
