TOUGH LUCK FOR FAMILY
OF JOHN MOORE, JR.

The Christmas season seems the
toughest time misfortune could
come to anyone, and the family
of John Moore Jr., a young Coling-
ton man had it last Wednesday
when the home which they rented,
burned down, with all the furni-
ture and the clothing Of the Moore
family except what they wore that
day. Mr.. Moore was away at work,
the three children were away at
school, and Mrs. Moore was down
the road visiting a neighbor when
the kerosene stove set the house
afire. Despite the prompt effort
of the Kill Devil Hills fire de-
partment several miles away,
nothing could be saved. Neighbors
Of the Moore family organized a
committee to receive contributions
Of money, clothes, furniture, etc,
to help the couple and their three
children to get a new start. Those
interested in aiding the family
should get in touch with the Dare
County Welfare office, Mantee

ROTARIANS TREATED TO
A MUSICAL PROGRAM

At its regular meeting Monday
night, the Manteo Rotary Club was
treated to musical program,
mixed with rare humor from toast
master Aycock Brown, president
of the club. The club approved a
contribution of $25 for the family
of John Moore Jr., who recently
lost their home in fire. An
nouncement was made that the
next two regular meeting dates
of the club would be skipped and
the next regular meeting win take
place on January 5.
An interesting musical program
was presented by the Sea Tones,
local orchestra comprising the
following pieces: Mike Gallop,
trumpet; David Diclxie, string
bass; Paul Croker, drunms; Fran
els Meekins, accordion, and Mrs.
Norma Cahoon, piano.
Two special guests of the club

Manteo and Bruce Leonard Of
Kitty Hawk, leaders in the student
body of the Manteo High School.
George Culpepper of Manteo
was visiting guest of Rotarian
Ernest Meekins.

WHEN the Dare County Commits
sioners recently began giving con-
sideration to the question of whom
to select as members of the Coun-
ty ABC Board to supervise the
management of a county-owned
business that has passed the
100000 mark in annual gross
sales, it was apparent that today's
needs and future prospects of the
ABC system needed men of mark
ed ability. Horace Hooper, success
full business man himself was first
to recognize this need and after
considerable discussion with Mr..
Hassell with the appeal that his
services. were needed got him in
terested and won his consent to
undertake this responsibility. Few
people know that Mr.. Hassell is
the active head of a business with
an annual gross of upwards of a
half million dollars a year, and
fewer know he has held a diploma
from General Motors for the past
10 years, awarded for outstanding
efficiency in the accounting sys-
tenn of that giant organization in
North and South Carolina. His
prior experience includes the work.
ing out of difficulties of utility
system; as head of accounting for
the Manteo bodybuilding Co. which
was one Of the biggest contractors
in the coastland under the defense
program of World War II, and as
Chevrolet dealer for nearly 80
years. He began his business edu-
cation as lad in Norfolk, got his
early training with Norfolk auto
mobile dealers. He is one of the
hardest workers in his community
for fraternal and educational
causes, and was tireless worker
during the recent primary for a
progressive program in Dare
County. His wife is the former
Ina Jolliff, and they have two
sons.

TO HOLD OLD CHRISTMAS
FESTIVAL AT RODANTHE
JAN. 3, TWO DAYS EARLY
Unique Celebration to Take Place Saturday Eve
ming Wifi Uaaal Oyster Roast, Dance. and
Minstrel Program; Proceeds to Be Used in Re-
pairing Community House Serving Three Vii
lages-Rodanfhe. Waves SaIvo.

An unusual thing about Rodan-
the's unusual festival in celebra-
ton of "Old Christmas" is in the
books this year. twill be held on
January and not on January 5,
the day which is additionally OBJ
served by the people of the three
neighborly villages comprising the
Chicamacomico community.
Reason for holding the festival
on Saturday, January 3 is that on
weekend more of the former
residents Of the community, the
home boys and girls working
away from home, will be able to
enjoy the occasion.
AS the Old Christmas date drops
back toward the middle of the
week, fewer persons are able to
attend.
The observance of the "Old
Christmas" date is a survival of a
traditional custom when some hum
dfeds of years ago, religious peo-
pie refused to accept legislative
edict setting the calendar ahead,
wherein some IL days We're lost.
Religion then dictated to many
people that it still did not change
the day on which Christ's birthday
should fall.
Rodanthe people, like all other
people of the Coastland now for
many years past have come to ac-
cept Dec. 25th as the date, but
the continued observance of the
Old Christmas date cherished by
their great grandparents is OBJ
served also, and celebrated annual
ly out of respect for tradition and
community prestige.
And this respect and reverence
for old customs of the past, and
for the opinions of the coastland's
rugged pioneering ancestry, is
looked upon by people from OUT
side the coastland as something
worthy of remembrance and
praise.
Because this celebration is some
thing unusual in the nation, and
only few regions Of North
America still cling to it, the Ro-
danthe festival has grown in re-
cent years until it attracts more
spectators than the small build
ling's 200 capacity can accommo-
date. Much of the affair is held
out Of doors. The people Of the
community have provided a free
oyster roast, and free dance music
for many years. Good roads have
made it possible for so great a
number Of people to attend, that
the resources Of this small neigh
borhood have become unduly taxed
to pay the cost Of the celebration.
The two hour program in the
school house, the oyster roast etc,
all are now charged for from citi-
Gems and visitors alike, in order to

CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
SYSTEM IN MANTEO
BUSINESS DISTRICT
Plans Now 70 Enlarge System and
Make Better Showing
Each Year

Aided by contributions from
various merchants and individuals,
and with the liberal help of
VEPCO employees in Manteo who
furnished labor, the business dis
trict of the town now has the nu-
cleas of a creditable. street light
ing outfit for Christmas. If this
material is stored, and cared for
where it may be remembered and
found, added to and erected in
succeeding seasons, it will prove of
much value. This is what, we are
told, will be done.
The street lights now showing
make the down town business
area more interesting for the sea-
son. It reflects credit on those
who gave their time to put it up,
as well as those who gave their
money to pay for it. Chief of
Police M. C. Mitchell headed the
group which collected the money
contributions.
The merchants of Manteo have
this year shown their largest
stocks of Christmas merchandise.
In fact, the principal stores carry
about anything for gift purposes
save jewelry, that can be found
anywhere in this part of the
country.

YOUTH KILLED BY
SHOTGUN IN HAND
OF A PLAYMATE
Tragic Ending Of Mis+lefoe and
Christmas Tree Hunt on
Roanoke Island

High hopes for a happy Christ
mas for three little boys and their
families ended Wednesday after
noon when Melvin Lee Buddy
Flowers, IL, came to his death
from a shotgun blast some three
miles north of Manteo. The gun
went off while in the hands of
Marvin Clark, IL year old son of
Andrew Clark.
The Flowers boy, with Bill
Houlton, IL, were on the porch of
the Clark home. Young Houlton
had hack-saw and had set forth
to cut Christmas tree. The Clark
boy went and got an old-model
breechloading shot gun to take
along to shoot mistletoe down
from the trees. The gun went off,
and the Flowers boy died in a
few minutes. Mrs. Clark, who was
on the premises but some distance
from the house heard the shot,
came and found the little boy dy-
ing, and ran for help.
The other two boys, frightened
out of their wits, ran off. The
little Clark boy rode his bicycle
to Manns Harbor, then came back
and went to the home of an uncle
Willie Rogers, who returned him
home, bike and all. The lad was
so completely frightened and
stunned by the mishap that he
couldn't give a complete account
of how it happened.
The boys grew up near each
other and had been playmates all
their lives. They were of the same
age, and were good companions.
The Houlton boy is the son of
Mrs. Mildred Houlton Midget of
Manteo and lives with his grand

KITTY HAWKS NEW
100000 SCHOOL
OPEN IN JANUARY
Open House to Be Held on jan
uary 4th Serving Patrons of
Six Communities

Six communities in upper Dare
County will be served by the new
100000 building now being COM
pleted for the Kitty Hawk School
District covering the northern part
of Dare County.
The new building which is ex-
pected to go into service after the
New Year holidays is rapidly be-
ing completed, and the PTA is ar
ranging an open house to show it
off to the public on Sunday after
noon January 4, if present plans
can be carried out.
To the cost of the building will
be added $4,000 for additional
equipment to supplement the
equipment now used in the present
school. 1t is financed by a bond
issue which has been made pos
sible by the rapid growth of beach
property in the district. Except
for a driveway, parking area, and
a few other necessities, the build
ing is now almost ready for use.
The school is of yellow brick
on a 15-acre site. Communities to
be served by this building are
Caffeys Inlet, Duck, Southern
Shores, Kitty Hawk, Colington,
Kill Devil Hills and Roussapock.
The building which includes the
main entrance houses the princi-
pals office, health room, teachers
lounge, gymtorium Combination
auditorium and play roof, library,
cafeteria, commodity storage room,
heating plant and restrooms.
The other building has eight
classroom, more than is needed
now but provided in the confident
belief that school enrolment will
grow. One of the rooms not now
needed for classes will be used for
showing educational film strips,
where screen and protector can
remain set up.
The primary rooms open on the
playground as well as into the
main hall. They have their own
toilet facilities, and a combination
drinking fountain, and lavatory
with soap and paper towels.
Every classroom has a sink in
it, as does the teachers lounge.
Student restrooms include hand
washers.
Classrooms and the principals
office have one wall of glass, with
windows below and special non
glare glass above, the first school
in the State to use this type of
glass.
In the gymtorium, one wall is
paneled, to cover a space for stor-
ing the auditorium chairs when not
in use. The cafeteria dining room
is connected with the gymtorium
with a wall of double doors, so
that the two may be converted into
one room, either for community
dinners or for programs attended
by more than the seating capacity
of the gymtoriun.
Back of the stage is a large
room, primarily intended for a
dressing room for school entertain
ments, but which can also be used
for small gatherings and is expect
ed to be put to, use by the COM
munity. An outside entrance to
this room would eliminate the nee
essity of going through the GYM
forum to reach it.
The Stephens architectural firm
in New Bern served as architects
for the structure, with Frank Nc
Call of Drexel, general contractor.
