When the American COL

could be sure Of two things:
1t would be strong enough
to last a lifetime. and it
would serve a practical pur-
pose.
Both of these virtues are
present in this design for a
chest patterned after those
of early craftsmen. You can
give it either a plain New
England look, or dress 1t up
with molding and bright
paint for a Pennsylvania
Dutch effect.
The chest has two COM
partments: The largest
reached through the idded
top, and a smaller one below
in the form of a pullout
drawer.
1t will provide handy ex-
ira storage in the bedroom,

VIRGINIA BEACH.-Some IA
miles of oceanfront beach here
was designated as a highway
early this month by police.
This will mean an end to the
use of the strand by unlicensed,
uninspected and unregulated
beach buggies." From now on,
cars driving the beach must
conform to all State laws gov
erning highway use.
On January /, 1868, the old
resort city of Virginia Beach
merged with adjoining Princess
Anne County into a new city
using the name of Virginia
Beach. One problem facing the
new city was that of regulating
beach traffic.
Between the oceanfront COM
munity at Sandbridge and the
North Carolina line IA miles
to the south there is no road.
Vehicles use the hard-packed
sand at low tide as a highway,
