MAIN mn* Autumn Gay Time For Travel From Mountains TofThe Sea By MIRIAM RABB Autumn'i brilliance t o u c h • i •very taction of North Carolina vara tiM lands during October. Atross the Great Smokien and Blue Ridge Mountain*—«.here the highaet peaks in Eastern America tower up to *eU above mile-tusb elevation*-every highway give# you a front raw, center, teat at one of the greatest autumn foliage •hows la America. As you drive from one altitude to another there is endless variety in the combinations of crimson, gold and bronze which mingle with the dark evergreens. The smoky blue which characterises the region hangs like a filmy curtain between the nearby hills and those in the dist, anee. Down on the North Carolina coast, where Wilbur and Orville Wright choaa autumn a* the time to build the world'* first powered aircraft, autumn fishing is something special. By mid-September and well through early November, the big bronae-baeked channel bass come into the surf from Kitty Hawk to Cape Hatteras, and south to the beaches near Wilmington and South portWild ducks and Canada wheel in the skies over the marshlands around Currituck Sound and Lake Mattarauskeet, and by the opening of the waterfowl season on November 7 lure hunters from many states. In the Sandhills, where Southern Pines and Pinehurst are famed winter resorts for golf and riding, all accommodations, golf courses, shops and stables are open by early October. The two resorts have seven 18-hole golf courses within a radius of five miles, and there is foxhunting, pleasure riding, and a round of informal horse shews and gymkhanas. October Is the month of North Carolina's big State Fair at Raleigh, to be held October 15-10 this year. Heart of the fairgrounds on U. S. 1 near the Capital City is the State Fair Arena, one of America's most striking contemporary buildings. A dozen other fairs invite October viaitors, and at Chapel Hill, Morehead Planetarium'* October 22-Noveraber 23 show is appropfk ately titled "Harvest of the 8kiea*?j October It marks the opening of the big game season, with bear and deer hunting enjoyed in coastal and mount*in forests. Bow and arrow hunters con begin hunting an October a. Wild boar are hunted in the Western North Carolina mountains near Robbiasvtlie Across Eastern North Carolina and the Piedmont you can stop In at doxens of tobacco warehouses to hear the chant of the auctioneer as he offers the golden weed to buyers from the world's largest tobacco companies. At WinstonSalem. Greensboro, Keidsville and Durham you can take a free guided tour of the factories where those companies manufacture cigarettes. Recreational areas for camping, picnicking and hiking remain open in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, along the Blue Ridge Parkway, in the Cape Hatteras National Seashore and in the National Forests through the autumn color season. So do special attractions like the Parkway Craft Center and Minerals Museum on the Parkway, and the Pioneer Museum and Hosestead at the North Carolina entrance to the Great Smokies Park. Privately operated scenic attractions, as well as inns, motor courts, and guest homes, are open for autumn visitors. This year, travelers have a wider choice of accommodations than ever before. New attractions Include Tweetsie, the narrow-gauge scenic railroad near Blowing Rock; the Brinegar Cabin pioneer home on the Blue Ridge Parkway, and new bridge* and terries to the Outer Banks. As the season begins in the Sandhills, Pinehurst will be host to the 8th annual North and South Invitation Seniors Golf Championship October 21-16. Southern Pines' annual Golf Carrousel is November 21-24. Formal foxhunts offer Thanksgiving Day fun for participants and spectators at Tryon, Sedgefield and Southern Pines —they're a field day for photographers. SAFES SAFE Baltimore, Md.—Despite a fire which completely destroyed the Essex branch of the Fidelity-Baltimore National Bank recently, an estimated $200,000 contained in twQ safes .was undamaged. The nmoved from the ruins of qpfjgJUflng, were opened and the money was not even scorched. DEMOCRAT ADS PAT HOW BIO IS A BARGAIN? A local homemaker studied the value of her telephone service. She found that telephone rate*, in terms of what her dollar* will buy, have actually gone down and the service la better than when ihe was a bride IS year* back. And the real cost of telephone Krvice is down compared to other goods and services you buy. Pood costs, for example, have gone up nearly twice a* much as phone tervice. And it'* a smaller item in the family budget Before World War II, over 2 per cent of family income was spent for local phone service; today, less than 1 per cent. To put it another way, the cost of a day's service is leu than the price of a loaf of bread, a pack of cigarettes or a quart of milk. Pretty big bargain, wouldn't you say7 • • • MAN-MADE MOON—Sometime next spring, a powerful three-stags rocket will zoom into the stratosphere. About 300 miles up and at a speed of 18,000 m.p.h., the rocket wiU release a small, shiny sphere: the world's first manmade noon. Inside the satellite will be a product of Bell System research and manufacture—« special kind of transistor. Pioneered and developed by Bell Laboratories and Western Electric engineers, the tiny transistor will enable the artificial moon to send data by radio back to earth. So you might say that telephone research is really "out of this world. •, • • I WAS WATCHING a comtroction crew building a new highway the other day. Seem* like more and aori road* are being built or improved around the Hale to beep up with growing traffic, and that'i line. Weil, k'a fee tame way with the telephone company. When traffic get* heavy otj line# i cities, we bond new voice highway* to take cafe d your calls.

Try It! Livestock To Feature Fair Hera livestock will be exhibited at thu year'* Dixie Clonic Fair than ever before, according to Bryee Younts. aaaiatant manager at the fair. Northwest North I'arolioa is well represented with entries "Cattle eatries are up at least twenty-five percent over last year," asserted Mr. Yousts. He addad that about ITS beef cattle, and 275 dairy cattle have been entered in the Livestock Exposition. Approximately 200 head of cattle will be on hand for the junior shows. The open show for swine will j see two brveds—Hampshire! aad > Tamworths — filling the swine barn. Mr. Younts re porta that entries in the open sheep show are very encouraging. Fat steers will be offered for sale by eighteen 4-H Club and FFA members who won them in last year's Calf Scramble at the Fair. Junior sheep farmers will show and sell 20 to 28 market lambs. Seven breeds of cattle will be exhibited: Angus, Shorthorns, and Herebords, in the beef section; and Guernaeya, Holsteins, Jerseys, and Ayrshirea, in the dairy aection. The Liveatock Show for 4-H and FFA members will be held Friday and Saturday before the Fair opens. The top winners in each class will stay over for competition in the open show. Cloalng date for entries in othar departments of the Fair is 1 September 30. ■< BUSINESS The state of business in the nation has tome experts somewhat concerned. They see a definite slowing of business as a result of the recent boom having run out of steam. However, in the next six months, many believe that the pople themselves will provide the steam necessary to keep the wheels of business going. By early 1958, employment Is expected to take up any slack now apparent, and by summer, a noticeable improvement is expected to be evident. Bonn lets contracts for 11,007,000 in arms. urn.
