Belhaven P.T.A. Planning 10 Pep

Unique Contest

Eight of Belhaven's most hand
some male citizens have volun-
teered to be subjects in the "Pur-
ty Laigs" contest to be sponsored
by the Belhaven P. T. A. between
now and Halloween. A poster
bearing the mismatched heads
and legs of Eddie Voliva, Brick
Howard, Jack Leigh, Charlie
Smith, Brantley Tillman, j. HI.
Purvis, Howard Chaplin, and H. G.
Brumsey will be be displayed in
O'Neal's Drug Store. For twenty
five cents any contestant may at
tempt to match the heads and
legs of these men. The first per-
son to match all eight correctly
will receive a prize. Entry blanks
may be picked up at most Belha-
ven business establishments, and
there is no limit to the number Of
blanks one person may buy.
The annual Halloween Carnival
will be held on Friday night at
the John A. Wilkinson School. The
doors will open at 600 pm, and
there will be barbecue sandwiches
and hot dogs on sale for those
who wish to eat supper. In addi-
ton to the usual carnival attrac-
tions, there will be an auction
sale of assorted articles in the
auditorium. One of the highlights
of the program will be the crown
ing of the King and Queen Of
Halloween, winners of the popu-
larity contest to be held before
the night.
Mrs. Jesse Taylor is general
chairman of the carnival.

to get more money; it ought to
have shorter hours, it ought to have
more holidays, etc. But nobody is
going to suggest to labor that it
ought to give an honest days work;
that it ought to stop gold-bricking
and feather-bedding.
The politicians will have also a
lot of consideration for the teach
ers. The teachers haven't got too
many breaks as they wished them
in the past year or two, SO they're
going to be promised lot of things
this time, and as in every election
year, some of them will believe
what's told them. One reason the
politician forgets about the teach
ers is because he remembers that
there is a big turnover among them,
with many of the young ones get
ting married every year. He just
figures that most of the teachers
he promised things to are married
and gone by the time he gets in Of
flee.
1t might be amusing if we could
watch those fellows writin q
speeches. Just how to promise a
whole lot in such a way that loop
holes can be left, must be quite a
problem. A fellow has to know a
Lot of dictionary in order to make
it all look rosy while leaving way
TO back out.
Well, Mr.. Editor, have my own
rule about these candidates. don't
go by their speeches. / go by the
kind of man he's been before he
STARTED running for office. If he's
been a man that's kept his word
and paid his bills and didn't beat
his wife, and his children looked
like they weren't afraid of him
then my odds would be on him be-
ing all right wherever he goes.

UNCLE DOCK FROM DUCK WRITES:
Telling the Farmers What They Need;
Well Soon Be In The Promised Land

Dear Mr.. Editor:
see now where most of the
speeches being made to gatherings
in North Carolina, except in the
churches have a lot to say about
the welfare of the farmers and the
school teachers. It's kind of anus
ing to read some of the things they
say that ought to be done for the
farmers. We never read about what
the farmers ought to do for them
selves.
Of course these folks making
speeches have got their eye cooked
on some office they'd like to have.
A great deal of attention is being
paid to the teachers also.
Now what I'd like to see is some
body run for office, and tell folks
he doesn't propose to give them
anything but honest effort, and
that he will try to save money in
stead of just spending it. 1t seems
the people would wake up to all
the phoney baloney promised by
politicians. It seems they would
realize that what they give back to
the people, the people themselves
must first dig up cash to pay. By
the time it gets back to the people,
a lot of it has got nicked off the
edges.
You can keep your ears cooked
from now until next June, for the
race in North Carolina is likely to
be an interesting one. Everything
is going to be promised before it's
over. Tears will be shed over the
poor farmer. Once the farmer vote
was just about the whole thing, but
now the state is getting industrial
lied SO the politicians have to play
with the labor bosses. While one
eye is weeping for the farmer, the
other will be shedding tears fol-
labor. Labor viii be told it ought

HUGE CORN CROP
AND MANY BEANS
I'M HYDE COUNTY
Estimated Million BusheI Corn
Crop and 10000 Bush
els Soybeans

Although corn prices are some
$1.03 the yield in Hyde County this
what disappointing, being about
year has not been lacking, accord
ing to r. L. Gibbs, well-known ele-
vator operator of Engelhard who
estimates the county's corn crop
at million bushels, and the soy
bean crop at 100000 bushels for
the entire county. Mr.. Gibbs ele-
vators will handle about a half mil
lion bushels of grain this season.
The development of Engelhard
as one of the big grain centers of
eastern North Carolina has been
made possible because of water
transportation which permits large
vessels to load directly from the
elevators and move the cargo to
Baltimore and other large ports.
While the Engineer Corp. is
planning to maintain 12-ft. chan
mel into Engelhard, vessels may
make use of only 91s #. draft since
this is the maximum depth per-
mitted through Croatan Sound
maintenance of the channel through
which has been allowed to fill up.
Some people say there has been no
Crdatan Sound in 80 years. There
fore, a serious handicap exists for
the development of water trans
portation in this area.
The grain elevators at Engelhard
constitute one of the towns most
valuable com mercial assets
Through it, hundreds of thousands
of dollars are paid out annually To
farmers for grain, and no small
amount of employment is provided
The business stands a monument to
the acumen and business ability Of

been operating in this community

Three members of Belhaven
family narrowly escaped drowning
when their cupboard motor boat
overturned on Thursday of last
week. Mrs. LOWE jefferson, her
son, Elmer Ray, and her daughter,
Mrs. Olion Baum, were fishing in
Oyster Bay when their boat cap
sized without warning. Mrs. JEFF
ferson, went down twice before her
son reached her. AS he dived I'M.
der the boat in search of his
mother, Mrs. Baum chung to the
overturned craft and screamed the
attention of several men fishing
from small rowboat in the dis
lance. The men evidently did not
realize the plight of the party or
could not reach them, for the res
cue was effected by an oyster
boat that was a good distance
away when the accident occurred.
Merle Sadler and Vonn Wood,
aboard the oyster boat, first
thought that the figures in the
water were porpoises; but went to
the rescue Immediately when they
saw their mistake. The two men
took the party to Swan Quarter.
Mrs. jefferson, II, and her son
and daughter were treated for
shock, and all are now recovering

BOY SCOUT CAMPAIGN
BREAKFAST ON TUESDAY
Movement Underway in Dare County;
Wade Mari Speaker; County,
wide Effort Started

At a breakfast furnished by the
early bird group Tuesday at the
Carolinian Hotel, to kickoff the
Boy Scout campaign, S. Wade
Mari of Elizabeth City gave the
pep talk. Mari, well-known after
dinner speaker has been associated
with the Scout movement since
1910, according to Gene Traut-
vein, District Scout executive.
Mr.. Mari said to the Dare
County folks that he knew of no
finer cause to assist with time
and money, and no other organi-
cation with the exception of the
church and the school, has so re-
markable an influence upon the
boys of this country. Over twenty
million have come in contact with
its program, he said.
The necessary funds to carry
on this dedicated work has been
done through the generous sup
port of the people and United
Fund groups. Where there is no
Fund, the Independent campaign
has built the Boy Scout Move
ment to over 1900 Cubs, Scouts
and Explorers in this section of
Eastern North Carolina.
Records indicate that in Dare
County alone Scouting has pro-
crossed from one Troop in Man
teo to where almost every village
and community has Scouts, he
added.
