owning tackle take proper care of
same. Whether this is a streak of
laziness in the fireman or because
they just don't care or know how
to take care of their tackle I do not
know. Personally I think the care of
tackle after it has been used, is one
of the most fascinating attractions
-m n r.A T om -not a tarticularlv
mWinus. sort of fellow. Take the
care of rods for instance.
NEVER PUT A ROD away in a
rod case while it is still wet or
damp it may cause ther rod to
swell and ruin it. A favorite way to
keep a rod and a method employed
by better anglers is to hang it from
the tip, which will straighten out any
bends or "sets" caused from reeling
in a fish. When the varnish on your
rod -Rears off, touch it up, and thus
keep it in perfect condition for use.

But Libby Ward Hopes To Stop That
The above photos show excellent views of famous old Fort Macon on
Beaufort Inlet. Vistiors may at anytime visit the area shown in the top
photo, but to get inside the interesting structure (lower photo) tourists
must arrive at a certain time. For instance, from Monday through Sat
urday the fort is open for awhile in the morning and also during the af
ternoon. But on the Sabbath it is open only in the afternoon, and last
Sunday, it has been reported that approximately 100 cars loaded with
tourists drove to the fort, only to learn that it would not be open until
the afternoon. On top of the foregoing situation everyone entering the
fort must pay a dime. Representative Libby Ward of New Bern, a mem
ber of the board of Conservativation and Development, which is parent
to the N. C. Park Service expects to enter a protest to the charging of
admission for' this historical structure, when the board holds its summer
session at Morehead City July 13. Whether he will be successful in his
efforts to throw open Fort Macon to visitors without charge, remains to
be proven. But one thing sure, Libby is the type of guy that makes ev
ery effort to get his plans across. (Beaufort News Photo by Dee Gee Bell)

By AYCOCK BROWN
ONCE UPON A TIME there was
an ex-soldier who needed medical at
tention from his physician and drugs
from his druggists. The ex-soldier
had no money, but the physician
and druggist extended credit and
thus perhaps saved the ex-soldier
or some member of his family's
life. The account was never paid
because the ex-soldier was always
in hard luck and had no money.
Along came the bonus, and the ex
soldier received several hundred
dollars, with which he could have
paid his doctor's bill and the bill of
the druggist but he never did. In
stead he spent the money for an
