Commercial fishing plays an important role in 'the ' economy and the lives of many North Carolinian* liv ing along our coast. Fishing for fin-fish and thfeB JUh 'is a multi-millon dollar business employing thousands : on both sea and shore. In another category are ocean going vessels that follow for days the vast menhfdea schools for fish meal, which is also big buAiess. , The major shore installations for icing, packing, proc essing and shipping the commercial catch off the Caro lina coast are located in areas that have adoftod x "legal control" system tor the sale of be?r and ale as being in the best interests of law and order attd ttta- .

Someone la going to have a very hard time pervtmding me to leave thii unique, breathtaking, simply dehgwitful Far Eastern country of Japan. | - From the minute our plane land ed in Tokyo International Airport, the velvet carpet rolled out.

Jerue Babb, and set out for cur home in rulU^wa .. . 4. The trip to. this little town was _ i > ' ? . more than ? hectic, it's no surprise lo me tha' the Japanese Dew sui cide fdanes during U?e war because they got into the swing of things driving c?rj. People drive cars and 1 ride bkyctei as If they dare you to hit them. T? make matters even worse, most hi) of the highways are ,iie size of one lane of ours. Al so :hey drive on the wrong side of the road. Anc' wrong side not only means they drive on the left but also they skoot whever they see a hole in the traffic. What it all bolls down to is tha* you actually take your life in to your own hands when you get In to an automobile. Think I will see if I can buy tome "driving nerve pilla." Otherwise I'm sure to have a eood case of beart trouble by he time I get home. From what I have seen of Japan i so far, it reminds me somewhat of | Southern California. You can't tell when you leave one town and enter another. We are fortunate (I think i enough to have a typical Japanese house in Fujisawa which we share with an elderly Japanese couple who speaks English beautifully. Che house is L, shaped and we have <ne side and they the o'her. A door connects tfcese two portions of the mae. This presents one minor Toblem. The door will not look ?nd apparently the Japanese people >o not think it necessary to knock jcforc entering one's house To nrke matters worse, they walk so -oftly you can't hear them coming. I thought surely that I wouldn't ?ave to park my shoes at the front door bu' I was sadly mistaken. Yoa wouldn't dare walk on these beauti ful grass carpets and highly polish ed floors with shoes on Even if you did. the laniUord would surely have a stroke and die. The house looks as if a big gust of wind would blow it over but when all the doors and windows are closed it is ahsolulely air tioht. Amazing. A very high fence and oxquisi'e garden surround our hxise. We have a huge reception hall with a floor of tiny rocks set in cement, Japanese bedroom, NOW SERVING THIS AREA FLEET WOOD Have You Seen A Nationwide I Family Approved Home ? 1 YOU COMPARE!

Also maid't room, bath corn (which hai only a sunken talhtub). dressing room , Western ollet and Japanese toilet. All of be doors in the house slide and are made of either glass or paper. This gives the house a spacious ef JCt. The living room and Japanese >edroom open out on the garden. | Housekeeping is no problem as ve have very little furniture, only several tables and chairs. The kit ten leaves a few things to be de sired. The sink is a trough which 1 omes all the way up to my thighs. , I The stove consists of two gas burn era with no oven. Our landlord bough: us a new refrigerator (the ultimate in Japanese luxury) which is just the right size for Laurie to get in o. It is scarcely more than 2'xt' andw cost more than $200. | We are sleeping Japanese style on the floor on thick quilts called ru ons. The futon is folded eacto morn in 5 and put away in a closet. I thought rurely my back would be fixed up in no time from sleeping on the floor and i'. probabl.- would except for the fact 'hat I spend all Jay bendinjr over to wash dishes. ; open doors and sit on the floor. The Japanese pooVc arc quite small which explains everything being so low. Poor Jerue butts his head every time he goes through She door. I The family with which we live is delightful. Their name is Kishimo 4o. They are very wealthy for j Japanese and have a new house in Tokyo, this itouse here at Fuji sawa and one in the mountains. Mr. Kish'.moto was a custom offi cial for Japan in Shanghai for many years. He came back to Ja pan before the end of the war and thus was ab'e to bring his wealth with l>im. They are very proud of this house but especialy with the;r garden. In Ihis garden are azalea bushes in red and White which are bloom ing. Also a huge camellia bush. There are several boxwood trees 'never knew there was such a ling', an --ak type tree over llM years old, and the dearest holly iree which su.ndj about 5 feet. Ttiis tree has the tincst leaves which i cover it completely from the top to the ground. These people are of the "old school" and very interesting. Mrs. Kishimoto told me that before the war they had many servants but now have only two. Mr. Kishimoto wears "kind of" Western clothes. He wears his pants up under his ribs and a belt around his hips. This is a s' range tight. Mrs. Ktshimo o wears only kimonaa. She said that the first book that she read in English was "Little Wo men" snd that it was very difficult for her. Being of the "old School" Mr. Kishimoto thicks that men should do no hing but sit. And 1 am sure that we have shocked bim beyond belief. Our first night here ite stay ed with us for a while to be sure that every Kiing was in order. While he was here I asked Jerue to ; please give the baby a bath for me as I was dead after the plane trip. When they left the room, Mr. Kishimoto turned to me and in the most utterly amazed voice I have ever 'heard said. "Da you mean that your husand is going to give 'he lit tl? girl a bath?" It was all I rould do 'o smoother my laugh. He is terribly surprised that we bathe every day. Thinks it is a ricf.Jful waste of water. This house is full of ?iot water heaters. We have one to heat water lo wash dishes, one for l?t wa.er in the "uathroom and kitchcn and o.ie for a Japanese type bath. Tc lake a Japanese type bath y .iu light the spccial heater and .lie same wa cr flows contin uously from the tub to the heater. This is done to keep the water ex tremely hot. Everyone in the house i uses the same water, so they do not emp y liie tub af.er each bath. I They stand outside the tub on wooden planks and wash all over, i hen pour buckets of water on themselves 10 rinse. T.ie tub is us ed only far relaxation. ! As Mr. Kishimoto showed me the kitchen I suggested that we turn on the refrigerator and ?11 up the ice tray. He asked what did we do with ice and I '.old him that we drank water and drinks with ice. yet the feeling that iie wonders why He really can't get over us and I he rented his lovely home to Amer icans. Voices of Hope inaT roubled World Two boohs, one devoted to all the arts and the other ex clusively to poetry, demonstrate anew the vigorous and uni I versa 1 language of Art. Speaking eloquently and boldly in a world troubled and often aflame, these voices of the great artists of our day testify to the essential dignity of all men. "Prismatic Voices," edited by C. A. Muses, and "7 Arts # 3," edited by Fernando Pum >, are both reccnt publications of the Falcon's Win2 Press oJ Indinn Hills, Colorado. < In "Prismatic Voices." (cloth | cover, S4.00), Dr. Muses hr.j gathered together representa tive poems of 19 young poets of the world. Twelve of those are Americans, showing the world a not generally-known but brilliant sitle of our varie gated culture. What these poets have in common, says Dr. Musc j, is "'the j gift of a living poetry . . . they are using talent in an honest search for the mianing of life." Many of these remarkable poets have been published in the ! "little magazines" of the United States, and now they have bo come available to the general'1 public for the first time, in one I of the truly finest collections of contemporary poetry available in America. Many of these poems, unknown now, will be ; the great classics of the future. ' The other book. "1 Arts # 3," (cloth covar, $2.93, paperbound, f.95), is dedicated to the inte gration of all the arts. In an ! exciting volume hailed by crit- ! ics as "remarkable" and "mag nificent," it unites articles about painting, sculpture, dance, iru- j sic. literature, theater and ar- , chitccture by the world's fore- ? most authorities.
