THURSDAY JULY 29 . 1920 '! . NUMBER 29 RUSH New Method Of Finding Fat Backs Will Be , . Practiced . Here Tfce location of schools of fish is to be one of the regular, duties of the Coast Guard aviation sta ' tion located af Camp Glenn, , " Morehead City. Some experi - mental flights have already been made and flyers are confident U that they will be abw to go some practical work in the way of fish." -They plan to go but early in the morning and if fish are . -found to come back and notify - k the fishermen who will the go after them. It is said to be en Vv tirely feasible for the sea plane Xtfaxelling at 60 miles an hour, at : height of 500 feet to see the fish- " As the planes travel far faster .'-. than any boat, can go and being higher in the air observers can . see much farther it is apparent that they can be of great value to the fishing industry . There are eight concerns with headquarters here engaged in the business of catching men haden for oil and fertilizer pur 1 poses and three in Moreneaa City. These concerns employ a m a larsre number of men and have larce capital invested in them and constitute the DrinciDal in : dustnr of Carteret county. If the sea planes can assist them in v. locating schools of fish they will save a great deal of time and money for the manufacturers "; ana be of great service to this - entire community. Some fish - are beinir caueht now but the real fishing season does not be gin till October and at that time ,, , mi l i the sea planes will have a chance to demonstrate what they can do tr alA th fkh no- industry. x. w a i Mis Shell and Mr. Chad- ! wick Wed Last Wednesday evtning John Chadwick of Beaufort and Miss Mary Parks Shell of Lenoir were married at the home of the bride in Lenoir this State.

These extraordinary creatures, little known' outside of the southern Andean re gion of South America, have their range from southern Ecuador through the elevated plateaus of Peru and Bo- iivia southward along the high Andes I to the plains of Patagonia and Tlerrn del Fuego. Ail are of the very high est utility for men's needs for food and clothing. - The four are merely different breeds of the same race, varying only as they have been bred In domesticity for cer tain specialized purposes, or modified by their environment when left un hampered In their native wilds.

They have the camel's nature, for though more vigilant than the camel, they -possess the same dull imperturabillty, and their Identical-stubborn, morose dispo sition, and seem to consider man their hereditary foe,-only to be obeyed by compulsion and with spiteful spittings and groans, y The llama .family In prehistoric tlmea bad 'a much wider range than at presept, their foasirremalna being found from the republic of Colombia northward to Central America ,nd nuruiwaru iv vmrai America iuu i m f norln M ntfl, cyrjo.l The" llama and alpaca are. domesticaf-1 ta, the guanaeo and vicuna are stui la ,l . i. . .k. tnstsnres where domesticated animals range co-ejlitent with their wild genera.

NEWSPAPER FOLKS MEET I Hold Delightful business And Social V Gathering At Waynesville The forty eighth annual con. vention of the North Carolina Press Association was held last week at Waynesville.' The head 4":is vi uic puuusucis wu the White Sulphur Springs hotel anj the meetings were held in a building erected during the war for a Y. Nf , C A. - building - for convalescent soldiers. It would be hard to imagine a more" . 'de lightful place to hold a conven tion than the ; one chosen -this year, waynesville is beautifully located in the mic'st of a nynlber of mountains. At this season of the year they- are masses; of gren foliagebeing covered with beautiful pine, fir, chestnut, oak and other sorts of trees and var ious kinds of shrubs and wild flowers. The air up there is de lightfully' stimulating and at night it is so cool that consider able bed cover is necessary for comfort. : . r The newspaper men who with tneir families and mends num bered over a hundred were -hospitably entertained by the peo- ple,of Waynesville and every ,,ef fott was made to make them en joy their visit. Editor Boone of the Carolina Mountaineer was particularly assiduous in his ef forts to do every thing possible for his brother publishers.

Advance In ' Rates Beginning September the first the subscription price of thevBeaufort News will be advanced to' $2 a year and there will also be a slight advance in advertis ing rates. A steadily in creasing ' expense account makes this action necessary and a better newspaper and a greater influence justifies it. j Five years ago two dol lar would buy more of the things required to publish a newspaper than . one dol lar will boy "now. So even after the price of the; paper, is increased to two. dollars it does net yield , as much profit . as 1 it did when the price was 'one dollar. : All the better class weeklies in ' the ' State have , advanced their rates and in some States they v nave gone to $2.50 and even $3 a year. It is,- our ultimate aim , to give the people of Carteret coumy as good : a weekly newspaper as is pub'ished in North Carolina. We can not believe that the public expects us to do this at a fi nancial loss. With the ' co operation of the people - the News will become a power ful factor in the develop ment of Carteret eounty and its success ' therefore is as much of a benefit to the public as to those whopper-: ate :it! Until September subscriptions will be receiv ed at the old rare. $1.50 but a for not more than two years in advance. , , - Beaufort News Incorpor ated.
