In fact sun baths were the order of the afternoon, but in most Instances bathing suits were just as necessary for this pleasure as f 0r a dip in the deep The afternoon and evening concerts of the Elam archestra were delightful affairs and those assembled for the music festival were very anxious to show their appreciation of the efforts of the artists that Mr. Elam has brought here for the season Yesterday afternoon's crowd on the beach was woefully small when com pared to the crowd of the preceding Sunday and a soothsayer was not needed to determine the cause of the falling off. The weather was wholly responsible and very few of those who went down cared to take their regular Sunday afternoon dip The recently Instituted admission charges to Lumina are suspended on Sundays and yesterday afternoon and last night's beach visitors heard con cert music without cost that was sec f 0nd to none obtainable a Statesvllle, N.

TO Willi HTW One of Biggest Fish and Soft- Shell Crab Shipments Passes New Bern (Special to The Dispatch.) New Bern, June 10. Friends in New Bern will learn with regret that Cap tain J. J. Bowen, who came to this city one year ago to take charge of the local branch of the Southern Ex press company, has resigned his posi tion and has. accepted a place with the federal bureau of employment, a branch of the department of labor, and will leave shortly for Raleigh, whote he will be located. Captain BoWen has been with the Southern Express company for 30 years and is a valued employe. He came to this city as successor to J, T. White and has made many friends here. While it is not definitely known, it Is understood that Z. W. Taylor, for merly agent here, but who has ior some years held the position of cash ier, will be made agent and that Faul Roberts will be made cashier. The closing exercises of the public schools at Pollocksville were held yes terday and people for miles around were in attendance at the event. Rev. Daniel G. MacKinnon, rector of Christ Episcopal church of this city, delivered the graduation address and this was heard with interest and thoroughly enjoyed by all who were present. One of the largest smpinents of fish and soft-shell crabs of the season passed through New Bern yesterday morning, en route from Beaufort and Morehead City to points in the cen tral and 'western part of the state and to the northern markets. There was one and a half carloads of the seafood in the shipment and n this there were probably 75 boxes of soft shell crabs. While Craven county was not men tioned in reports made by the state board of health a few days ago in its survey of the health work being done in North Carolina, it is a fact that in this county unusually diligent efforts are being made to eradicate and pre vent disease and this is having the desired result.
