NATIONAL LIBRARY
WEEK BRINGS PLANS
FOR SPECIAL EVENTS
Open Night Thursday Beginning
At Eight O'Clock; Displays
Feature Numerous Items
By SALLY N. BARDIN

Beginning April the 18th and ex-
tending through the 18th is Ma
1ional Library Week. The slogan
for this week is "Wake up and
Read" Many of us are not wide
awake enough to know the value
OF reading, or what world of
knowledge and pleasure there is
for us in books. To quote Lewis
f. Ball, an eminent book critic,
with a few exceptions, like the
Scandinavian countries, we are
supposed to be the most literate
nation in the world; yet the great
majority of Americans put their
ability to read to little use." Next
week our Dare County Library is
going to show US where and how
we can put our ability to read to
much use.
On Monday and Tuesday after
moons from 2 to a pm. the Book
mobile will be on the street across
from the Court House. 1t will be
open, with one of the library staff
in attendance to show how the
books are handled, and tell how its
coming is looked forward to as it
ti'undles in and out the back
country sand roads.
National Library Week is also
Forgiveness Week here. In the
front hall of the Community
Building will be box, and those
having overdue books can bring
them any time during the week
drop them in and forget them, fol
all fines will be forgiven during
that week.
Monday night the Library will
he open at the regular time. Or
Thursday night, April the 10th al
g pm. the Library is having ar
Open Night in the large room Of
the Community Building. Books
from special collections will be or

and Mexico, as this week is also
Latin American Week, children's
books and many other specialties
On Thursday night there will be

would be put into new hands. Tax
Supervisor Pencil Tillett agreed
to take on this job without extra
pay. Mrs. Zenovah Davis is now
compiling a list of all tax items
now unpaid, and when completed,
the people who owe them will be
notified. Commissioner David Stick
moved that Mr.. Tillett be appoint
ed, and the resignation of Mrs.
Donis White be accepted as to
delinquent tax collector effective
when the list is ready for Mr..
Tillett.
Letters are to be sent to the
people who owe taxes. If in a
reasonable time, no effort is made
to pay, legal steps will be taken
to collect the taxes.
The question of police service
for the beach area was brought
up, and some discussion prevailed.
Meekins, the chairman, wanted the
Board to provide the area with a
competent, trained man, qualified
to solve crimes, and bring offend
ers to justice, and work elsewhere
in the county when needed. Com
missioner Stick wanted to put a
policeman on the job, who would
keep watch on things. Sheriff
Frank Cahoon appeared to be sat-
isfied with the men he now has,
all of whom live west of Roanoke
Sound and are seldom seen on the
beaches, except at the night spots
during the summer season.
Meekins said the number of I'M
solved crimes was disgraceful, and
unless the Board does something
to give the beach property protec-
ton, we cannot encourage people
to invest their money where they
feel their property is not safe and
given the protection the officials
owe it. This area now yields over
two thirds of all the county taxes.
Mosquito Control
While most authorities agree
that the methods of mosquito con-
troll used in Dare County has been
largely waste of money, as it has
been applied in the past, the Board
took note of the attitude of the
people that something ought to be
done, and the county having sever
al pieces of equipment, and having
recently gotten a large Jogging
machine at what was considered a
bargain, ordered all the equipment
now put into shape, to give serv-
ices as needed this season. The
plan is to keep one piece of equip
ment on Hatteras Island, and use
the rest in the north end OF the
county. The Dare Beaches Sanitary
District, in a letter brought by
Dan Harris, requested the loan OF
one of these pieces of equipment,
same as last year, for use in the
district area, but consideration on
this request had to be postponed
until the Board might determine
where its equipment is to be used

The FIVE, four former army Of
