Two Buses Take Shallotte
Boys And Girls On Trip
To North Carolina State
Fair
The home economics girls and
the agriculture boys of Shallotte
high school arose early to meet
the bus at 6 o'clock on the morn
ing of Friday October 22.
They were going to North Car
olina State Fair at Raleigh.
After loading, they began their
jounrney. The boys who were ac
compained by Mr. LeRoy Mintz,
their teacher, seemed to be un
usally quite on their bus as the
girls took the lead in making
noise. Accompanied by their tea
cher, Miss Copeland, they practic
ed yells and songs for the ball
games later in the season. Some
popular to "Stout Hearted Men"
and "Shallotte, the Pride of all
the South."
When the bus stopped in Clin
ton, passengers knew it couldnt
be long to Raleigh.
The excited group reached the1
fair grounds at 11:30 o'clock.
After waiting to get In they final
ly reached the place they had
talked about for weeks, "State j
Fair." Then the group scattered
among the crowds, many of j
which headed for the rides.
On the fair grounds it was)
crowded, noisy and the odor of I
popcorn was strong. Above the |
laughing faces people could be
seen spinning through the air on
the many rides. They were dres
sed in everything from dungarees
to satins and high heels.
To most of the crowd the rock
et looked like fun so naturally
they decided to try It. As it flewl

You never know what's happening
at the other end of the line! That's why
it's important to allow about a
minute for your party to reach the
telephone. It's also important to answer
calls as promptly as possible. "Being
Considerate" always pays off in better
telephone service for everyone.

round and round through the air,
the riders became dizzy. Most of
them thought this was too rough
but would not admit it. Next the
octopus was seen and a few of
the group decided to try it. While
in the air everyone was secret
praying, amid the screaming to
get down safely.
Among the other rides were
cars, jeeps and a giant Ferris
wheel.
Strange sights were on view
in the side shows. There were
midgets, a baby with two heads,
and a girl in an iron lung. Curios
ity took its course and many
went to the fortune tellers. All
the girls are to have handsome
husbands and the boys beautiful
wives.
In the exhibits the boys were in
terested in livestock and machin
ery. The large cows seem to draw
the attention of everyone. The
girls were attracted to exhibits
concerning home economics. A
mong these were, flowers, food,
furniture and hair styling. The
huge collection of crisp-looking
pickles caused much discussion.
| In the afternoon, only a few
from Shallotte attended the rac
es. Before the races farm machin
ery was demonstrated. The long
steel blades glinted In every one
one's eyes while brightly colored
tractors moved slowly around the
race track.
Many of the novelty shops were
visited by the group and some
valuable prizes were won.
At 4:30 o'clock bedragled, the
dusty group met at the gate and
slowly and reluctantly left the
fair grounds at 5:30 o'clock.
Both buses stopped in Benson
and the tired group was less noisy
than it had been the whole day.
The buses left Benson at 7:30 o'
clock and drove quietly home.
Some of the group went to sleep
while others carried on quite
conversations.
When the buses reached Shal
lotte at 10:45 o'clock the moon
could be seen sending its silvery
beams down on the Shallotte oaks
and Spanish moss. The darkened
farm houses were quiet and still.
Everything seem to show the late
ness of the hour. Although every
one was tried and sleepy, Friday
night, each enjoyed the fair
thoroughly and expressed the
wish of returning again next
year.

Good Fishing |
Still Possible
Captain Victor P. L*?**
Thinks That SomeOf The
Best Fishing Of The Fall
Still Remains To Be Done
Sport fishing offshore is far
from being over according to Cap
tain Victor P. Lance of the Ma jo
(who stated Sunday night that
there are still plenty of good
chances at sailfish, and that this
may continue for some time, if
the weather holds out.
Amberjack, dolphin, bonlta, king
mackerel and other fish should
be active right along until Christ
mas. It is recalled that several
i years ago Don N. Carpenter, out
!door editor of the Washington
i Daily News, and a party of other
Washington sportsmen made one
'of the nicest catches that has
been brought in here. They got
plenty of amberjack, dolphin and
lone of the largest catches of bon
ita we have ever seen. This was
just or.'e week before Christmas.
Practically everything except sall
Ifish seem to remain on the shoals
all winter and their taking is just
!a metter of there being fishing
weather.
Captain Lance with W. O. Hum
pheries and a party frm Rox
toro got 103 nice blueflsh Sun
day. Other boats further out on
the gulf are said to have made
nice catches of amberjack, dolp
; hin, bonita and king mackerel.
Captain Lance reported that at
I that time the seas were settling
down and the waters becoming
j clear. Clear water and the abs
ence of an east wind appears to
| be the only things needed for
good catches to be made here
during any time of the year.

State Motor Vehicle License
Examiner N. E. Hudson stated
Monday that four of the six
months allowed E. F. G. auto
mobile operators in which to re
new their license or to get new
ones are now gone.
Motorists have only from now
until January 1st, in which peo
ple whose names begin with these
letters may take the examination.
Mr. Hudson says that thus for
In the six months period only a
very small number have applied
for examination, either here or
at Shallotte. He anticiptes that
if applicants do not get busy and
come in during November, they
may have a lot of waiting in line
when they do come the last few
days.
In order to advoid long waits
in line, Mr. Hudson urges that
all Brunswick county residents
whose names begin with E. F.
or G. begin coming in right now
while he can easily take care of
them.
He is at Southport each Mon
day and at Shallotte each Tues
day. The licenses may be obtain
ed at either of the abo^e places
on these days.

Plans Being Made For Com
munity Christmas Trees
This Year For Both White !
And Colored Children
Preparations are now underway
j for the annual community Christ -
,mas Tree under the auspices of
the Southport Lion's Club. The
plans are for two trees this year,
one at the community building:
I for the white children and the;
? other at St. James Methodist!
church for colored.
i The funds raised will be used |
impartially for the purchase of i
presents for both the white and:
colored children.
Many of these presents are al-:
ready being purchased. More are
being1 ordered as fast as funds
come in. All who are interested
in sharing in the event may? make
donations for the purchase of pre
sents to either the Lions Club or
to Mrs. Helen Bragaw.
The presents are being purchas
ed wholesale. To get these prices
it is important that purchases be
made early. Mrs. Bragaw requests
that donations be made as early
as possible as this will enable
her to know something of what
can be ordered.
All parents in South port with
children from one year to ten
years of age should write Mrs.
Bragaw a card immediately, ad-|
vising her as to the number of j
children, their ages and whether
they are boys or girls. Both *w,
and colored families nio^
this.
