A little over four miles of this distance at the upper end was taken over and paved six or eight years ago after being built up and a foundation laid by the beach 'owners. The three and a half miles just trken over is an extension of this original distance. The beach peo ple had built it up and paved it "but, heavy traf fie resulting from the hauling in of building material had put this original paving 'in'very bad con dition wlien the Highway Corri missjgn took over, about three vvejelt^ ago. About fifty 'homes, most of them, fine ones for beach resi dences, are already on the new three and a half mile stretch lead ing to near the Capel'S place.

Mr. Mid-] dleton has always been a key fig-1 ure in fostering the development! that has taken place at this pop-J ular resort.

On such occasion with a trial left behind John Fernside and Homer Phelps, with their dogs, are promptly called in and the bear is lucky if he enjoys his meal very long. The Reigal Paper Company, with a large herd of Brhama cat tle in areas of the Green Swamp woods, makes it a yearly practice to encourage bear hunters from Tennessee to come in with their dogs fo bear hunts. Such hunts invariably result in a number of the bears being killed and still more are scared out of the cattle ranging area. A bear, strong as it is, would liave a tough time defending it sell' from one of the huge Brhama bulls or an old cow, But there is always the pofcsibilty of tehir find ing a young stray calf and gettin? started on the way to becoming mischief makers. The bears are as much afraid of man as man is afraid of bears. When they see each other, unless the man is armed, they both go in opposite directions, and go fast. Now and then a visitor in the woods sees, a young bear and thinks it will be nice to catch it and show the folks. Should the old mother bear happen to be a rcund, such ideas are quickly giv en up. Not even their fear of man will prevent them from resenting any interference with their young.
