M Then there's the man with a ready answer for everything?the same answer. It would be a hard matter to convince a farmer that it is possible to get honestly tired without messing up your hands. If you are silent you may be suspected % of being dumb; it is when you fail to remain silent that you prove it. Personality is not so much a matter oi talking as it is a matter of listening. 1 One way to forget your own unpaid bills is to spend all your time talking about your neighbor's indebtedness. Some people who believe that "On< good turn deserves another" apparently forget that this was supposed to be a ft reciprocal arrangement. i Life Savers We present to you six Red Cross Senior T Life Savers and four Red Cross Junioi tife Savers, ten Southport boys out of a group of approximately 20 who success;?> fully completed the course in water safety conducted for them last week by Chas. A. Mix, life saving instructor and field representative for American National Red Cross. These boys should make swimming in WE PROMISED TO LOOK AT THE Il $145.00, 3-Piece Walnut B< hut good as new.

The classes here this summer are the)ter' j first in recent years, but with a re-awak- spei ened appreciation for life saving we be- witl lieve that this course can be made an hon annual event, ,n ,! \ ) Cape Fear River Pilots Ha; i hen When the freighter Illinoian went will aground on Battery Island late last Mon- mer day afternoon it gave mute answer to the r question we often hear from up-state re?' Bra people: "Why do ships have to carry a Sun pilot up the river?" True, the ill-fated vessel did have her IV1" i ty ' [own pilot aboard and doubtless he was giving directions to the best of his knowl , edge and belief when the Illinoian ran f(T aground. But the fact remains that the ship did go ashore in what was not at all a dangerous part of the river. Cast for a moment in the role of second-guesser, it is easy for us to point out | the tremendous savings that this company could have made by employing one of the I men whose business it is to escort ships j in safety from the bar to Wilmington and i back again. Counting the expense of having the vessel resting here for one week, the overhead of operating expenses, the . cost of towing service, etc., it is likely that the total ran well into five figures. Compared to this the fee for an experienced member of the Wilmington-Cape Fear ' Pilot Association is negligible. And while we are on the subject of ; pilots, we don't want to miss this opportunity to pay our respects to the members :! of this association as the most faithful, aepenaaDie men we nave cvci miumi m self-disciplined service. Not only are they a credit to their profession; they are without exception progressive, useful citi- i zens of their community. The old adage about live and learn, I may soon in this modern age of educa-j tion be come learn and live. i i Figures don't lie, but it took the ultra modern bathing suit to bring it out. London may be 3,000 miles away, but at the same time we have plenty of folks walking around in a fog. SAVE YOU MONEY I SE 4 BARGAINS | i ^ BH sdroom Suite, slightly used, ving in fine $49.95 ite.
