ADVERTISING PLAN SET
UP BY MRS. PURSER

A travel organization for the
Albemarle Region of North Caro-
lima, originating from an idea of
Mrs. Lucille S. Purser, Mays Head
hotel operator and president of
Dare County Tourist Bureau DUR
ing the year ending October /, was
tentatively formed last Saturday,
for the purpose of promoting the
vacation business in several north
eastern counties from Currituck
and Pasquotank, southwark to
Beaufort and Hyde including the
Dare Coast and Ocracoke.
Forrest Jones, manager OF the
Elizabeth City Chamber of Com
merce presided at the organization
meeting in the Cypress Room of
The Carolinian following the First
Flight luncheon and an open house
honoring Mrs. Kate Peele, author
Of the recently published book she
wrote about her late husband,
Herbert Peele.

ent and their connections included

KILL. DEVIL HILLS
EVENT BRINGS COLD
BLUSTERY WEATHER
Peace and Fellowship Prevails. But
There is No Comfort Where
Man First Flew

Saturday, December 18th, again
proved that we may depend upon
discomfort from blustery and cold
weather whenever there is cele-
brated at Kill Devil Hills, the first
airplane flights in 1908. Maybe
once in ten years there is fair
day, but most of the days are like
Saturday, or worse.
One year, since World War II
there was a blizzard so bad that
the delegations couldn't make it
from the Manteo Airport to Kill
Devil Hills. The dignitaries flew
in to the Airport, and there they
said their speeches and went away.
Others who had come by auto
holed up in the Fort Raleigh Hotel
for several days waiting for the
snowdrifts to be moved off the
roads.
When the weather permitted,
the First Colony Inn and other
hotels at Mays Head were pressed
into service for a dinner. The COM
ing of the Carolinian, operating
all winter, has provided a meeting
place. Ample in size and comfort
for a dinner for all who will come,
and in the peaceful warm atmos-
phere, a good program is usually
completed. On Saturday last, the
principal speaker was Admiral R.
E. Wood, Commandant of the 9Th
Coast Guard district.
The address of welcome was by
Melvin R. Daniels; Wade MARI of
Elizabeth City was POSTMASTER.
Elijah Baum of Kitty Hawk, who
knew the Wright Brothers when
they first came to Dare was pre-
scented at the dinner. Others pre-
scented were Mrs. w. G. Etheridge,
Miss Marie Etheridge, Miss Mar
garet Pearce, A. w, DrinI1water,
Ben Dixon MacNeill, aud Horace
Dough, custodian of the Mem ,rial.
Among distinguished guests pre-
sented were Fred Kelly, Wright
:, biographer; Mel Goth, Chief
n } flight research man;
- he Moves, author; Maj. Gen.
Stephenson of the Air Force,
and others.
Major AL Williams of Elizabeth
City also spoke at this luncheon.
The earlier service in the morn
ing at the base of the monument
was conducted by the following
persons: Rev. Geo. F. Hill of Eliz-
abeth City; Brig. General John
Stephenson of Langley Field; Capt.
Stanley Linholm, USCG Of Wash
ington; Mayor l.. S. Blades Jr. of
Elizabeth City; Miss Earlene Guilt
fer, majorette of the Elizabeth
City High School Band, Miss
Pearce and Miss Etheridge.

DARE BOARD DEFERS
JAIL PROJECT IN
FAVOR OF SCHOOLS
Three Commissioners Meet Mon
day and Postpone January
18th Election Indefinitely

The proposed second election on
the courthouse and jails bond
project set for January 28th has
been postponed indefinitely. At
called meeting of five members of
the Board of Commissioners to
which three responded Monday, on
motion by Lawrence Swain,
seconded by w. H. LewaIk, and
assented to by Chairman C. C.
Duvall, it was ordered that this
election give way for the time be-
ing to the school elections now
proposed.
Two members of the Board, E.
P. White of Buxton and James w.
Scarborough of Avon didn't attend.
The Board minutes show that
they took their action because they
are interested in the welfare of
the children of Dare County,"
They want to put off this bond
issue until the elections proposed
at Kitty Hawk and Manteo are
held.
An election is proposed soon for
the Kitty Hawk District to issue
bonds in the sum of not more
than 100000 to build a CONSOLE
dated school, probably at Kill Devil
Hills, the money to be paid by a
tax on the property in the district.
Another election is proposed for
a building at Manteo to cost a SIM
liar amount. Dates for these cleo
tions have not been set.
The courthouse and Jail election
was to issue 100000 in bonds, to be
used in connection with the spend
ing of $4,000 more which the
county now has. The people of the
county voted the issue down two
to one on July 9th. There is no one
who believes it would have carried
any better on January 28th. The
Commissioners have spared or
postponed at least the expense of
wasting money on an election to
again determine what had been SO
emphaticaliy stated. 1t has already
cost some $4,000 this far.
The $4,000 now in the county's
hands could build $4,000 hos
pital for Dare, if Hill-Burton funds
are still available, and the county
wouldn't have to borrow any money.
But no thought of the welfare of
the people and the children has
been expressed in this connection.

AN INFIRMARY IN
MANTEO PLANNED
BY FEARING'S INC.
Structure To Be Located in Fort
Raleigh Hotel Block on
Main St.

In hope of interesting more doc
tors to locate in Manteo, the enter
prising firm of go-getters, Fear
ing's Inc. plan the erection at an
early date, of an infirmary suitable
for doctors offices and treatment
of emergency cases. In pursuance
of this public spirited project,
senior and junior Keoth Fearing
and w. w. Harrington made a
trip recently to southeastern N. C.
looking over various projects of
the kind.
They are working in cooperation
with the Ruritans, Lions and Ro-
tary Clubs of Roanoke Island.
Fearings, Inc. expect to finance
the project themselves, and will
locate it on the desirable property
on which is situated their Hotel
Fort Raleigh, where there is ample
parking space.
In addition to this worthy under
taking, conditions with respect to
accessibility of the several COM
munities of the county now make
it feasible and desirable to estab-
fish small hospital in the CEN
trail location of Roanoke Island.
Building a hospital will do more
than anything else to insure suf-
ficient competent doctors for the
community.

kind on the Dare Coast will have
two swimming pools, one for
adults the other for children, COM
pleted for it's 1856 summer season.
Roy Wescott, one of the owners of
the Cavalier stated this week that
the pools will be larger and more
elaborate than any built on the
Dare Coast to date, the cost run
ming in excess of $4,000.
The Cavalier has carried on ex-
pansion programs from year TO
year since it's establishment and
has become the favorite vacation
spot for many thousands Of per-
sons who visit the Dare Coast.

LOST COLONY APPLICATIONS
TO BE RECEIVED NEXT WEEK

All persons in Eastern North
Carolina may make application
during the coming week for roles
in The Lost Colony production of
1866, General Manager r. E. Jor-
dan says. He adds efforts are be-
ing made earlier than usual to
determine whom locally may wish
to play in next seasons show, or
be employed by the company.
Usually local tryouts are held in
March.
Any interested residents of East
Carolina should make application

schools during March when the ap-
plications and tryouts have been
held previously" said Jordan.

A PERFECT CHRISTMAS

My Christmas Day this year would be,
So full of cheer if could see
Each poor mans home with hearth afame,
With warmth and cheer mine the same.
Each child of his with eyes a-glow
And sparkling the Winters snow
Around lighted tree of pine,
Laden with gifts for each, as mine.
My Christmas would so cheerful be,
every neighbor that see
On Christmas morn would still remain,
At heart the whole year through, the same.
Oh would not Christmas choirs ring,
AS Heavenly Angels caroling,
If all our fellow-men would do,
AS this each day the whole year through
My whole uletide so full of Joy,
Would be if every girl and boy
From Polios relentless toll,
To health again would gain their goal.
And finally My Christmas cheer,
Would climax all ;. if could hear
Highway Patrol report with pride,
This holiday one has died..
