Tunny Fish Is mm Caught In Basin A four-inch long fish with the head something like that of a perch, but with the fish twice as thitk as a perch of that length, wak caught in yacht basin by Orvijwillis last week. The specimen had a number of short stubby feelers about its head and one theory was advanced that it was a very young angler fish. If this is the case there is a marked difference between the old and young. Flippers on each side resembled those of a turtle, with the exception that they had seven fingers. , SERVINi AND FU Jrfcuh / The spirit We must i conditions.

C., i June 24, 1942. 5 Editor, State Port Pilot, 3 Southport, X. C. 1 Dear Sir:? 3 During the recent political 1 campaign it was rumored that a I ^ the county had contributed a large sum of money for the erection of the USO building in Southport. So far as I know, the county was not even consulted about that project. ?1 The latest rumor is that the s County of Brunswick will have 2 to pay part of the cost of the ! new power unit being installed {by the City of Southport. In the 3 first place, this would be an en" j tirely illegal procedure, as the 'county has no right nor any pur1 pose in financing city projects; and in the second place, no couns ty official has ever been approa-1 ched about any phase of this '?| work. r | It all causes me to wondei I what terrible thing it is that the | people of Southport have done against the people of the county, to make them willing to believe ] rumors like these. We here in Southport are as much a part of the citizenry of Brunswick count ty as those of any other section, r and I see no reason why we r should not be able to get along r; without the spiteful rumors that have been spread to hurt us all. 1 JOHN D.

These men function in leadership capacities, adi vising and encouraging the boys I to study and to perform the duties which are rightfully theirs. These duties are found in the scout law. In addition the masters go along with the young men to camps and camporees. There they help in choosing the most adi vantageous camp site, and super: vise the actual construction of ; the camp. Menus and foods are examined and inspected, sanitation facilities are. watched, and : pure drinking water is obligatory. Besides these duties there are many more, but the masters are 1: inspired and encouraged to sac. rifice their time and energy so that boys may develop into men, , and men into gentlemen. Scouting gives boys a chance to serve their community. Its activities not only give pleasure and knowledge, but they prepare to meet community emergencies. ; When tornadoes strike, when " '~ ii'Uan on rHi/iiiQ 1/oc iiwus sweep, v* ntit tmunjubov. and fires and disasters come, the .! Scouts have always proved at , once their readiness to serve. Scouting knows no race or creed or class. Troops are found in protestant churches. Catholic 1 parishes, and Jewish synagogues. It is available both to farm and j city. It is found in schools, it serves the rich and poor alike. Its aim is to help each of the boys to become the best citizen that I he can make of himself. Ten million men have gone before the present generation in scouting, and many of those men now wear the stars of a general in the ari niV. Some of these former scouts are senators and congressmen; I some of them are lawyers, preachers, doctors and engineers. In fact, one may find scout alumni in every walk of life. Each year new thousands upon thousands of boys join scouting. They find not only fun, but also a real ehance to be something more. Today there are over one million five hundred thousand active schools, and these young men really want to make good in life ! ?to amount to something?to be of value in life. The people of Southport will be pleased to hear that the local | troop received high praise at a recent Camporee of over a hundred boys held in Wilmington. Troop "35" was lauded by the scout commissioners for their ; ability in selecting and constructing a camp. They won due credit ? / \\ ?h m *?_7\ _ THEY ALSO SERVE Telephone offices now proud| ly display service flags ?as a patriotic tribute to those in the armed forces of the | Nation. Although the star figures 1 in the center field of white show the number of Southern Bell men now in the armed services, the flag might also symbolize all Southern Bell employes?for all are wholeheartedly serving their country in this great world crisis. The telephone, fittingly termed the nerve center of the Nation, is even more vi tally important in war than in peace. Thus, the telephone men and women at home whose lives are devoted to its dependable and efficient function are definitely ?in ; the war. All stand ready for emergency calls at any hour of any day?operators, linemen, construction men, repair men ?everybody. In or out of uniform, telephone folks are doing their war work?for they all serve, and the spirit of service was never more in evidence than it is today.

These words of praise should en courage the parents and friends i of our boys to greater activity and cooperation with the local j movement. These boys are poten-1 tial leaders, and a little encourI igement, properly placed, will do j, | much to inspire them to greater i ( things. Meetings are held each , Friday night at eight o'clock in the community building. The general public is welcome to sit in at these interesting meetings. , YOUNG PEOPLE ENTERTAIN MEN (Continued from page 1) the Army and the other the Navy. It was quite amusing to see some of the sailors be chosen for , the "Army" and some of the , soldiers in the "Navy"! The "Ar! my" won the "Sailor's Knots"} contest and "The Swabling" con- j i test but the "Navy" came right; back by winning the most "silver! dollars" in the Dr. I.
