Bolivia School
To Be Presented Friday
Evening At 8 O'clock
And Promises To Be One
Of Season's Best Entertainments
On Friday evening of t'lis
week at 8 o'clock the senior class
of Bolivia high school will present
the annual class play, which
is "The Path Across The Hill,"
a full evening, three-act comedydrama.
The play has a most interesting
plot, interspersed with wholesome
comedy, and is expected to
be one of the best of the year.
Ruth is engaged to Dr. Reed, but
delays marriage because of her
grandfather, who however, finds
romance with Grandma Davis.
Ruth is about to marry Dr.
Reed when her cousin, Flo, arrives
and at once sets her cap
for the doctor. Robert Post steps
in on the scene and discovers
that Ruth's grandfather is the
man who robbed his father's
bank years before. Grandpa begs
Post to not reveal his crime to
Ruth until her future happiness |
is assured. Post tries to stifle j
his love for Ruth, but the old
Couple show them that love is j
stronger than hate, and grandpa j
is proved innocent of any wrong.
The cast also includes a tomboy :
neighbor, a colored cook who!
brings in her new husband, and'
others.
The members of the cast are:
Lucy Hand. Mae Belle Hilburn,

CMTC Quota
For Brunswick
Brunswick County Will
Have Three Vacancies To
Be Filled This Year; Applicants
Should Hurry
The Camp Area Commander,
Third C. M. T. Camp Area, announces
that the procurement of
enrollees for the C. M. T. Camp
at Fort Bragg is progressing
i satisfactorily. However, there are
i some backward counties. Each
| county is given a quota based
I upon its population. Applications
from some counties are already
well over the allotted quotas;
whereas, some counties are much
under their quotas. It is desirable
that each county quota be filled,
in order that this service of our
Government be of equal benefit
to all. Should any county fail to
fill its quota by April 15, 1940,
other counties so desiring will
be allowed to oversubscribe and
thus fill the camp area's allotment.
In the past, some counties
have been allowed to enroll as
many as three times their allotted
quotas.
Brunswick County has 3 vacancies.
Fill them and thereby reap
the benefit of funds allotted this j
county by the government for'
this worthy purpose.
For the information of eligible |
young men and their parents, note:
that the Citizens Military Training
Camps are not operated on
a basis of financial gain to individuals,
but as a service of
the United States Government to
train future leaders of our great
nation. The young men attending
these camps are taught the
principles of fair play, value of
teamwork, fundamentals of patriotism,
and the obligations and
responsibilities of true Americans.
The primary object of these
camps is not to turn out soldiers, i
but to create substantial citizens
into whose hands the reins of
democracy will eventually fall.
Requirements for attendance
are simple. The applicant must I
be physically fit, of good character,
and an American citizen.
He must have reached his seventeenth
birthday by June 12, 1940
and not have passed his twentyninth
birthday.
All interested persons are invited
to apply to the C. M. T.
Camp Area Commander, Fort
Bragg, and an information booklet
regarding this truly American
activity will be forwarded
immediately.

Visiting Artists
Painted Sunday
Olin Dows of Rhinebeck, N. Y., 11
and Washington, D. . C., spent
Saturday and Sunday in South- j
port, painting and delving into s
future picture possibilities. He t
was accompanied by Claude t
Howell, young Wilmington man, j
who is gaining quite a requta- i
tion as an artist. !<
Mr. Dows has an outstanding \
reputation as a painter, and for j i
his work at woodcutters art. His f
murals adorn the Rhinebeck post t
office, and he has paintings in t
various public and private collec-1
tions. While here he made some half I j,
dozen beautiful sketches, the most
outstanding being one showing j
the harbor, Battery Island and c
portions of Bald Head island and
Fort Caswell. Mr. Howell also (
made half a dozen interesting r
pictures. | c
Seen by a local newsman with j j
respect to the local pictorial pos- j c
sibilities, Mr. Dows expressed! s
himself as being much pleased, j
He said there was much won- {
derful material, some of it of a (
rather subtle kind with an end- t
less variety of light and atmos- ^
phere. The trees, homes, boats, t
islands, etc., all afford splendid
subjects to be transferred to can- %
vas. {
He plans to return some time
soon for future work. He is
especially anxious to spend a day ,
or more on Bald Heard island, *
sketching the palmettoes, other J
trees and shrubbery that combine
in retaining the wildness of na- {*
ture, which still rules on Bald j f
Head island.

t
ASH, Mar. 25.?The Waccamaw c
P.-T. A. met on Monday even- )
ing. opening with a song and fol- ;
lowed with scripture and prayer ?
by Mr. Ray. Dispensation of old
and new business followed, with ]
the committees giving favorable
reports.
The president, Mrs. Dodson, re- <
minded those in attendance of the ]
State P.-T. A. Convention to be
held in April, and urged those ,
who possibly could, to attend. ]
A letter extending an invitation j
to the school children and pa- <
trons of the community, to at- ?
tend the Museum of Arts in Wil- j
mington, was read. This project 1
was heartily endorsed as being j
worthwhile. Attention was also
called to notice about the Art (
Exhibit to be held in Bolivia, and j
all the schools are to participate (
in this exhibition. j
The program committee com- i
posed of Mr. Ray, Miss Adams. |
Miss Wilson and Mrs, Walter
ienrette, presented some speakers
on the Boy Scout movement ]
in adjoining counties. Mr. Lyles, j
executive of Cape Fear Council <
spoke on the qualifications for
organization of a Boy Scout
Troop. J. S. Mann and A. J.
Krahnke of Whiteville, who are
affiliated with Boy Scout work,
added inspirational remarks to
Mr. Lyles' talk. Mr. Mann thrilled
the andience by singing
"God Save America" .
The local P.-T. A. voted to
sponsor a local Boy Scout Troop
and appointed a committee of
five: Amos Walton, Bruce Edwards,
Jesse Purvis, Odell Bennett
and Bernard Brown, to
select a scoutmaster. The P.-T.
A. feels sure that this will be
an asset to the school and community,
in that it establishes
good habits and character traits.
