MORRISON ADDS
NEW EQUIPMENT
AT DAIRY QUEEN
Extra Freezer and Topping Cabi-
net Will Speed Service, Make
More FlavOrs Possible

Kill Devil Hills. - Two pieces
of new equipment, designed to
increase the service, have been
installed at the Dairy Queen by
Herbert Morrison, the owner
and operator.
One is a new freezer, so that
two flavors of that soft ice cream
can be made. In addition to van
lila, strawberry flavor will be
provided Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday; Chocolate Thursday,
Friday and Saturday. On Sun
day, due to the press of work,
only vanilla flavor will be made.
However, all three flavors can
be secured in pints and quarts to
take home, as they are kept in
the deep freeze.
The other piece of new equip
ment is a topping cabinet, which
will hold the various toppings
for sundaes. Its use will speed
up service to waiting cusomers.
The Dairy Queen is open from
II in the morning until IL at
night.

suits. One of the newest notes
in style was a bib'n tucker swim
suit. Fabrics were found to vary
all the way from gold metallic
cloth to terry cloth for bathing
suits. Sail cloth toggle jackets
with pedal pushers, bra, hat and
bag to match, We'd in interest
with dainty twilight hour dress
es, Bermuda shorts with checked
blouse, wrap around skirts over
shorts, three TERED full skirts,
reversible stoles, little boy shorts,
walking shorts, and swim suit
that zips up the front.
A sweater girl set involved a
swim suit with matching sweat
er; toreador outfit included
pedal pushers fitted and laced
! at the knee and a loose and gaily
decorated blouse.
Styles included not only be-
witching modes for the slim
young things, but becomingly
smart fashions for the more ma
ture women. For all, colors were
fresh as the wind off the ocean,
and garments were fashioned
with an eye to the practical.
Although the swim suits shown
were highly decorative, they
were meant to wear in the water
as well as lounging on the beach.
For the most part, the mems
beachwear styles were designed
for sheer comfort, such as twill
walking shorts with white terry
jacket, silk and prima cotton
sports shirts, cabana sets with
frantic plaid shorts below a
white shirt, or coodinates of
slacks, walking shorts, T shirt
and beach shoes.
Todays beachwear is designed
with an eye to vacation with
no work. Many of the fabrics
require no ironing, yet have none
of the trough dried" look. BY
adding a skirt, swim suit be-
comes sun dress, or shorts and
top turn into a dress suitable
for wear almost anywhere.
After the style show, pictures
were taken for television by a
telenews film photographer.

CO-OPS AHEAD
ON PAYMENTS
AGAINST LOANS
North Carolina REA Manag-
ers, Accountants Conclude
Convention Sessions

Nags Head. - Representatives
of most of the 80 North Caroline
REA cooperatives concluded
their three-day convention at the
Carolinian Tuesday noon, after
discussions of rural electrication
financing and other business
problems.
The association, made up of
managers and accountants of the
cooperatives, elected Rudolph
Sexton of Tarboro chairman to
succeed David Moss of Red
Springs and Mrs. Aida Womack
of Rutherfordton was made Sec
retary to succeed Mrs. Barbara
Deverick of the Blue Ridge
cooperative.
Among speakers was D.Philli-
pi of Washington, D. c., an
REA representative, who talked
Monday afternoon on proposed
changes in procedure and contin-
uing property records. Another
REA man to speak was William
R. Shertzer, general field repre-.
sentative, whose subject was
Employer and Employee Rela
tons" Mr.. Sexton, Mrs. Dever.
ick, John Morton Of Jacksonville
and Mrs. Womack, William T
Crisp, Jack Parton and Miss Mil.
dred Sloan were other speakers
A question and answer discus
sion of work orders and material
accounting was led by panel
which included j. j. Hart, Reid
Harris and Mrs. Eloise Scull.
In discussing REA develop
ment, outside the convention, Mr.
Shertzer pointed out that of the
money borrowed from REA by
locally owned cooperatives, less
than two-thirds of l per cent was
in default Not a single North
Carolina REA cooperative is ir
default and many are paying off
their loans faster than is requir-
ed. One, he said, had paid off its
$270,000 loan II years ahead OF
schedule.
Mr.. Shertzer said that of every
dollar spent to bring electric
power to rural areas, the con-
sumer spends $3.50 for electrical
appliances. Since the cost i.
around $3.50 for each consumer
that would mean that consumer.
averaged spending more thar
$4,000 each on appliances.
| Rural electrification has raised
the standard of living in rura
1 areas and at the same time bene
fitted town business, Mr.. Schert
ger asserted.

first fashion show, held Satur-
day under auspices of the Roa-
noke Island Music Club, proved

cipating beachwear shops plan

tel, in connection with a lunch
con in the Driftwood and Dog
wood dining rooms.
With Trafton Robertson of a
Norfolk radio and TV station as
master of ceremonies, local mo-
dels showed the last word in
beachwear, as offered by the
Beach Mart, Gray's Gifts and
Beach Accessories, Nags Head
Sportswear and Trott's Sports
wear. AS Mr.. Robertson describ-
ed the fashions and introduced
the models, Mrs. Wallace F. Mus
tan of Kill Devil Hills supplied
background organ music.
Models were Miss Maggie Dan
iels, Miss Elva Rae Mann, Miss
Shirley West, Mrs. Bette Thomp-
son, Mrs. Stanley Tillett, Miss
jeanette Tillett, Mrs. Sarah
Berry, Miss Molly Fearing, Mrs.
Dot Frye, Miss Tracy Midgette,

Larry Gray.
After the style show, Mr..
Robertson introduced Ernest
Beale, Mrs. Walter Gray, Mrs.
H. E. Bowen and Mrs. Margaret
Coville of the four participating
beachwear shops. He also pre-
sented Mrs. Lucille Purser and
Julian Oneto of the Carolinian,
who made many of the prepara-
tions for the style show.
The fashions presented a de-
finite trend to femininity in
beachwear for girls and women,
in such features as soft shirring,
hour glass silhouettes, fitted
robes and tiny skirts on bathing

BUILDING MOVED
FOR REMODELlNC
FOR TOWN HALL
Mayor and Commissioners Want to
Provide Place Where Public
Can Attend Meetings

Kill Devil Hills. - A workshop
used by carpenters who built the
home of N. B. Hardee on the
oceanfront, this spring, has been
moved to a site across from Kill
Devil Hills postoffice. 1t was do
mated by Mr.. Hardee for re-
modelling as a temporary town
hall. Use of the site also was do
mated by the Manteo Furniture
Co.
Decisions about repairing and
remodeling the building for use
as temporary meeting place for
the Kill Devil Hills mayor and
commissioners will await the re-
turn of the mayor, Maj. ]. l..
Murphy, who is now in hospi-
tai in Washington, D. c.
The city administration has
maintained that a municipal
building was needed, so that the
public could attend sessions of
the mayor and commissioners,
which is not practical in a pri-
vate home. Although hotels in
the community earlier offered
use of their dining rooms, they
are now occupied until too late
for commissioners meetings.

Develop Private Lake

Mr.. and Mrs. Dick Gray, who
have operated the Oasis restau.
rant on Pond Island, near the
little bridge, have sold the bust
ness to Carlos o. Gardner and
Henry L. Law, South Carolinians
who more recently have beer
living in Norfolk and Hampton
Va. The new owners already
have taken charge.
1T is our determination" sale
Mr.. Law, to maintain the super.
ior standards the Grays have
set in the operation of the Oasis

ton, the new owners plan to re-
tain the same staff. This in

Mr.. and Mrs. Gray, who own
Pond and House islands, plan to
remain there. He will proceed at
once toward building a fishing
center, and in the fall they in
tend to build a motor court.
In preparation for the fishing
center, Mr.. Gray is going to
close up the sluice between the
two islands and eventually in
the center of the space will de-
velop a 26-acre lake, seven feet
deep, surrounded by a park.
For this year, Mr.. Gray ex-
poets to prepare for bank fish
ing, handling tackle, and renting
boats. For this phase of the bust
ness he expects to be ready by
the middle of July. BY next sea-
son he plans to have a pier built.
After the season closes this
fall, the Grays plan to erect a
motor court, which will give
them time to have the grounds
handicapped before next spring.
Pond Island includes 81 acres
north of Highway 158 and AZ
acres on the south side. Of the
acreage, 10 is already in a lake.
House Island includes 49 acres.
