M. A. MATTHEW'S, Tyrrell
County's Banker, can count at
least two artistic talents which
he pursues with a professional
touch-photography and the cook
ing of pastries, along with his
financial premise.
Matthews, a native of Samp-
son County, was cashier of the
Engelhard Banking and Trust
Co. in Engelhard, when the
State Commissioner of Banks,
Quincy P. Hood, furnished him
with the banking needs of the
Tyrrell County People, and the
indifference of some of the
other banks towards this need.
Hood was once the cashier of a
Columbia bank, had many
friends here, and had the de-
sire to help out the situation.
The two older banks in Tyr
rell "The Merchants and Farm
ers Bank" and "The Peoples
Bank" had merged into a branch
of the Carolina Bank and
Trust Co." of Elizabeth City.
The people suffered DOSAGE and
loss of service for six years
when the parent bank closed its
doors in 1929, resulting in the
closing of the local branch.
Those desiring a loan had to
travel as far as Elizabeth City
or Wilson and to wait about a
month for the loan to come
through. Deposits were made in
the Creswell and Plymouth
banks mostly with a few in
Elizabeth City. No silver was
ever deposited for there was al
ways a shortage of it in town.
Matthews saw a chance for
expansion of the Engelhard in
stitution, and at the same time
to help a neighboring county. He
managed through much effort
to steer the proposal through
the Engelhard bank, get the ap-
proval of the State Commits
sion, and opened the Engelhard
Banking and Trust Co. branch

in Columbia on Dec. /, 1886. The
name and Charter We're chang
ed to The East Carolina Bank
in 1915.
On opening, the deposits We're
around 40 thousand dollars,
and have grown to over four
million, Matthews informs, and
adds that it has been paying
20@o cash dividend for many
years, and that in Jan. 1862 a
200% dividend was approved.
Though the Columbia bank is
still connected with the Engel-
hard and Swan Quarter Banks,
it is operated on an individual
basis, Matthews releases. He is
an executive officer and cashier
of the three banks, he says.
The bank survived a bank rob-
berry of about $4,000. It has
been instrumental and helpful
in many of the finer things in
Tyrrell since it's opening. The
Columbia Rotary was organized
mainly through its influence,
and Matthews was elected its
first president. The club has
grown to be an active and valu-
able organization to the COM
munity. The bank has furnish
ed a financial spark for many
individuals through advice,
confidence and loans. Annually
it takes an active part in the
furthering of livestock ventures
through the All and FLA.
Livestock Show, in the giving
of trophys and making pur-
chases of the animals. The Home
Demonstration WON en- were
given a tour of the bank, with
explanations furnished on all of
the workings in the institution,
at the 1861 Achievement Day.
The physical structure is mod
ern in looks and with equipment
used.
Matthews adept in the art Of
photography, has used his tai
ent to furnish pictures needed
for all phases of civic work free
of-charge, such as dance re-
vues, parades, livestock shows,
etc. Capturing the beauty OF
blossoms by use of colored film
is his present study in photog-
raphy. Music has been one OF
his talents. He can play the
flute, the harp and the violin,
with the latter his best. He in
formed he did not venture in
any musical compositions now.
Cooking with special interest
placed on cakes is his newest
hobby. Refreshments ending the
bank tour of Home Demonstra-
ton women were of his own
making. When he bakes, he
makes two or three at a
time. He says he has two
stoves with three ovens at eye
level with visible glass doors,
two mixers and much other ex-
ira equipment.
Answering question about the
bank, Matthews stated "In the
poorest section of the state, to
build up an institution such as
this, took long and hard work,

The cut was sustained when
the jar broke. A Coast Guard
helicopter picked up Austin on
the beach at Corolla about II.
a. m. and took him to the Air
Station at Elizabeth City. From
there he was taken to the
hospital, treated and released.

The Washington Rotary Club
attended this meeting in a body.
Other towns represented were
Greenville, Elizabeth City, Hat
teras, Oxford, Kinston, Sanford,
Asheboro, Gre EN- sboro, and
Brooklyn, N. Y. Only about half
Of the as guests had ever been
to Engelhard before. Thus was
the beginning of what was con-
sidered an experiment-the or
ganization of the smallest Ro-
tary Club in the world.
The past 26 years have proven
that this effort was not in vain.
Today the club boasts that it
still has four of its charter
members-Tony Spencer, P. d.
Midget, Frank Gibbs, and Har-
old Jarvis. Another, M. A. Mat
thews, is a member of the CO.
lumbia Rotary Club. The club
has produced one District Gev.
ernor, p. D. Midget.
For 26 years Rotarians have
gathered around two tables
heaped beautifully with food
prepared by Mrs. I. B. Watson
of the Engelhard Hotel. Around
these tables many ideas have
Matched and grown into projects
that have been brought to a
reasonably satisfactory conclu-
sion. For many years the club
sponsored, along with other To-
cal clubs, a polio movie with
the proceeds going to the Polio
Foundation. Tday's fast-gorw-
ing vegetable industry in Hyde
County was first talked about,
encouraged, and supported by
the Engelhard Rotary Club.
A very active Boy Scout Troop
exists today due to the efforts
of individual Rotarians under
the sponsorship of the club.
These and many other projects
have given the Engelhard Ro-
tary Club an opportunity to
serve its community. Twenty-six
years is just a beginning.

Tree. Rights

From Mrs. M. M, 1907 Oak
Lane, Mount Rainier, Md. We
have a large oak on the proper
ty line on one side of our lot
and a large sycamore 1--WE think
on the opposite side. Both en-
croach in the yards. What
rights do we have, do the city
or county people help? Answer
Except when trees are in the
parking or in an alleyway the
pruning responsibility falls on
the property owners. Where
trees are on the boundary line
this should be worked out by
agreement between the two
concerned. Normally this work
involves considerable skill as
well as risk when the trees are
large. It is best to hire a quail
fled tree man - they are Ii
censed in Maryland and carry
permits to show that they are.
The liability from over-hanging
limbs is variously interpreted
and only a lawyer should be
called upon to tell what pre-
walls in Maryland.

Spray rees
For Scale Pests

One phase Of tree care that
must be accomplished before
buds break In Spring is dor
mant spraying to control scale
insects, aphids and over-winter-
ing mites. These are sap-suck-
ing insects that can be dan
gerous only if their populations
are allowed to get out of con-
troll. If the chemical attack
against these pests is launched
after buds break, the pests may
be destroyed but severe injury
to the tree itself may result.
In addition, the spray must be
applied when temperatures are
between 40 and 80 degrees F.
Scale insects are most likely
to infest elm, beech, apple,
maple, oak and many other
shade and fruit trees, as we'll
as merouS ornamental
shrubs.
Oil sprays that thwart scale
insects can be dangerous to
certain trees sensitive to dor
mant applications. These in
clude maple, beech, hickory,
walnut and butternut trees.
Lime sulphur is safe to use on
all dormant decidrous woody
plant.

Paintings Can Be of Help
To Control Home Climate

There are many ingenious
planting devices to help control
the climate around the home
by use Of trees and shrubs.
By use of such paintings the
home owner and his family can
be warmer in winter and cooler
in summer. Nobody likes to be
any colder in winter or hotter
in summer than he has to be
and these extremes can be
moderated to considerable ex-
tent with plants.
BY planting windbreaks on
the windward side the cold
winds can be moderated. The
paintings will break the force
of the winds for a distance up
to ten times their height. Thus
solidly planted rows of trees
is feet high will reduce the
winds for a ground distance of
10 times their height, or $50
feet.
In one test Of a perfectly
planted windbreak, fuel cost in
the protected home was re-
duced 22.9 per cent. It is out
door wind which causes the
fuel bills to shoot upward,
rather than the cold. 1t takes
as much fuel to heat a home
with outdoor temperature of
80 degrees and a 12-mile wind
as it does for zero tempera-
ture and a emile wind, says
the American Association of
Nurserymen.
In the summertime, discom-
