Lost Colony's 10th Season Under Way Scheduled for 57 Show ings; Closes on. Sep tember 3rd The Lost Colony, described by Brooks Atkinson, New York Times drama editor as having the longest run of any single production in the summer theatre got off to an excep tionally good start on the week-end of July 4th. Thousands'of persons wit nessed performances during the first four nights of the 1950 season. The Lost Colony will be shown for 57 nights this season with the final performance of 1950 scheduled for La bor Day Eve on Sept. 3. While many of the first patrons came specifically to see the famed symphonic drama by Paul Green, a large percentage came to Roanoke Island and its invirons to combine a vacation trip with their v,sit to the Waterside Theatre where the show is presented every night ex cept Monday. The vacationists for the most part stopped at the Dare beach es which comprise the oceanside com munities of Nags Head, Kill Devil Hills and Kitty Hawk. The ocean beaches are reached by modern high way and state bridges from Roanokfe Island and are only a few miles Ac tant from The Lost Colony theatre which is presented at actual site of English-America’s birthplace.

I VFW Renews Efforts ] For War Memorial i I (Continued from rage One) j I contacted other veterans organi- ( zations for financial and mental aid , with this plan but cannot get a re- I sponse to the plea. We ask no credit , for our small part. We merely wish , to honor our fallen heroes, your fallen ( heroes; for were it not for the blood ( that they so gallantly gave, our chil- ] dren and your children would not be happy, because our lives and your lives , ’ would not be worth living. “Gentlemen, we know why our dead < . comrades should be honored. Yes, we j , know because wc held their heads out ] ■ of the mud when they were dying. We ] ; lit their last cigarettes. We heard • i their last words. We helped them pray their last prayers. Yes, we know, as - . only we can know, why the brave dead . of Edenton and Chowan County should ; be honored. ( “It is hoped by the V. F. W. mem- ] bers that these bodies, Town Council and County Commissioners, will grant i us the use of the said fund. We wish 1 to erect the monument for one specific 1 cause—‘To show our community, our tourists and the spirits of our com rades that the blood they gave saved the blood that we kept.’ We feel that this erection will be an asset to the I morale and the hearts of the people of our community as well as to our many visiting tourists. “We are striving to erect this said monument to show mothers, wives, kindred, and friends of these fallen heroes that they who gave so much f are not forgotten by so many.” The letter is signed by Henry G. Quinn, El wood Nixon, Bill Harris and James Bond, members of the VFW Memorial Committee. The County Commissioners, by mo tion, asked for VFW and American Legion committees to meet and agree upon the type of memorial to be erect ed and then meet jointly with the County Commissioners and Town Council for the purpose of officially releasing the fund. Bishop Harrell Will Be Guest Theologian On Roanoke Island Bishop Costen J.

Island during the current season ofj the show which opened last Saturday] and will be presented each night ex cept Monday during its current 57- i night schedule which will be concluded on Steptember 3. Guest minister in The Lost Colpny’s theatre last Sunday was Dr. William Crowe, Jr., of Wilmington, N. C., where he is pastor of the First Pres byterian Church. Mr. Crowe’s sermon subject was “The Eternal Life.” Bishop Harrell has announced that his sermon subject will be “The Faithful,” and the closing- hymn of the services which are held in the guest 1 amphitheatre overlooking Roanoke Sound will be “Faith of Our Fathers.” The Sabbath morning religious wor ship periods have been a feature of The Lost Colony for several years. The services held each Sabbath by a different guest minister of a different leligious creed, attract many persons j to the open air theatre which literally [becomes a “Cathedral-by-the-Sea” on Sundays. Music is furnished by she famed Lost Colony Chorus. Aid Provided For Veterans With TB Veterans of World War II who de velop pulmonary tuberculosis within THE CHOWAN HERALD EDENTON, N.
