Two negroes were badly cut by

week at the New Jerusalem Diner
and bees parlor on the Scarbor-

sent word to officers Saturday
morning that he had cut Willie
McCleese and Sam Moore, Jr., and
to come out to his home and arrest
him for it, in case they wanted
him.
The badly slashed negroes were
taken to Albemarle hospital at a
late hour by Twiford's ambulance,
to be guests of the bounty of their
fellow citizens. McCleese returned
home this week, but Sam Moore
remained over for further rest and
convalescence.

WILDFOWL SEASON
! CLOSES AS FIRST
WEATHER ARRIVES
Unusually Mild Weather More
than Two Months Discourage
ing to Hunters

The wildfowl season came to an
end Tuesday of this week and
throughout the entire period begin
ming November 7, such unusually
mild weather has prevailed as to
have been extremely discouraging
to hunters. Old timers, who must
come a long way to hunt, have
,kept up with weather reports, and
hunting results, and have hesitated
to make long journeys at consider
able expense with results in doubt.
The weather has been discourage
ing to fuel dealers, but boon to
homeowners in the saving in heat
ing bills. There have been only a
few days, maybe half dozen in
all during more than two months,
which seasoned hunters could con-
slider the rough type which en-
courages birds to fly. In some in
stances, some good hunting has re-
suited.
The finest hunting grounds of
Currituck and Hyde, due to the
mild weather, have not been at
their best, although, their accessi-
bility has permitted great num-
Der of hunters, and on the whole,
from the standpoint of business it
has not been too bad a season, par
ticularly in Hyde. Some good hunt
ing has been done on Hatteras and
Ocracoke islands, and it was get
ting real good at the end of the
season.
The last day of the season, which
appeared to be one of the best, was
spoiled entirely for all the hunters
in the Rodanthe section, due to the
thoughtlessness of the managers OF
the Pea Island Wildlife Refuge
just to the north, who went down
and set the marsh afire, because
they thought it would be a good
day for burning. The smoke drove
away all the fowl that might have
been interesting to the hunters in
the nearby blinds.
Toward the last Of the season
hunting improved greatly in the
Hatteras area and brant moved in
in great numbers. The many snow
geese at Pea Island which are not
legal game anyway, moved away
promptly at Old Christmas time
according to tradition.
In Currituck Sound, world fam
ed for duck hunting, much dis
enlargement prevailed throughout
the season because of mild wealth
er, and one veteran hunter, who
has been coming to Currituck fol
many years said it was the first
time he had been obliged to fight
off butterflies while waiting in the
blind.

DARE LIBRARY
TO BE OPEN ON
MONDAY NIGHTS

Beginning Monday, January 81,
the Dare County Library will re-
main open on Mondays from 9 am.
until 9 pm. for the winter and
spring months. This new schedule
is for the convenience of the many
whose hours coincide with the reg
ular hours of the library, which
has denied them the privileges of
its services.
Members of The Woman's Club
were the first to request this addi-
tional service and have generously
offered to help if needed. Many
others have since expressed their
delight and approval of the change.
A record will be kept of the
number of patrons taking advan-
tage of these extra hours to deter
mine the desirability of continuing
the new schedule.
A few more of the new books
are "a Sioux Chronicle" by Hyde;
"a Teacher Is Person" by
Charles Wilson; "Billy Graham: a
Mission Accomplished" by Burn
ham; Portraits from Memory" by
Bertrand Russell; magic of Bal
anced Living" by Tebbel; "Treas-
ury of Asian Literature;" and
"Arms and Men" by Walter Mills.
