The high tide Of Diane on Tues

cottages on the Kitty Hawk
beach about a quarter-mile south
of Anderson's store. The front of
each house was left dangling at a

BEAUTY
Continued from Page One)

Temperatures are never uncom-
Portable outdoors along the surf,
nor in a boat along the outer
banks in September, October, and
nearly November. In fact most of
the winter days are agreeable to
the red-blooded hunter and fisher
man.
In autumn come wild geese and
ducks, and November sees the
season open for the great sport
they afford. This is a season that
appeals most to men. Along the
whole Outer Banks are many
places for accommodation of duck
hunters. Duck, Kitty Hawk, Col
ington, Roanoke Island, Rodan-
the, Hatteras, Ocracoke.
Yes, life is at its best on the
Outer Banks in Autumn, for just
about everyone. Unfortunately its
delights are denied to so many be-
cause of today's habits. 1t is re-
GREETED that more children cannot
know and enjoy the coast then,
but schools deprive most of them
this privilege. Because of the de-
mands of domestic life, during this
season, many adults are also
denied the opportunity to leave
home and business and revel in
the delight and inspiration nature
here offers.
We wish all the children could
see in Autumn the long roll of the
surf, the lazy sweep of the tide
along the wash of the shore, the
scurrying of beach birds search
ing for food up and down the wet
sands. We wish they could all
stroll slowly through the pleasant
woods and hears the symphony of
the surf in the distance, and to
hear it hull one to sleep at night
We wish they could enjoy the wind
as it sings around the house while
one is warm and snug inside;
where sleep is always good; when
a brisk stroll outside in morning
will bring new life in the blood
and new joy in mind and heart to
start the day.
It's wonderful in Autumn to see
the sea oats bowling and the salt
grasses riffling, and pine trees
, nodding in the autumn breezes
along the coast. There's beauty in
the moonrise, dripping fresh from
the sea of evening, or its nightly
career across the clear skies of
Autumn. We hear the whisper of
quiet wings in the night, and
sometimes the honking of geese
as the wild birds sail over. There
are brilliant sunrises should one
wake to see them, but grandest OF
all are the most glorious and gor-
geous of sunsets to be seen any.
where, for one sees the sun &c
down again on a watery horizon
painting both sea and skies with
a million matchless tints of colol
to thrill and delight and finally tx
bring joy and peace to all.

have run to a million dollars. To
most firms this meant the differ
ence between profit and loss for
the season. One operator said his
cancellations cost him $4,000 gross
business in a week. The loss is
widespread. Every person feels
the loss of this business, but more
directly the losers are hotels,
cafes, tourist courts, stores, serv-
ice stations, party boatmen, owners
of rental houses and cottages, and
numerous miscellaneous enter
prises.
The Lost Colony show lost some
four or five performances, and this
might mean the difference in profit

NOTICES MISS DeauI1ne
This is the start of the sum-
mer season, and church notices
are consequently falling off in
volume.
But unfortunately there still
are a number of notices each
week that fail to observe our
deadline, and so they have to be
omitted.
The Star is happy to publish
news about the churches on
Saturday. But we have to en-
force deadline, which calls
for the copy to be in the church
editors hands by IL noon
Wednesday preceding the Sat-
urday of publication. Too many
persons still mail their notices
Wednesday nights, and we are
forced to leave them out. Our
slogan, We'll cooperate if you
