At leant, bo he has assured hi? mother. Mrs. D. H. Horton, 317 Parsonage street, as the aftermath of an experience that fell his lot this week?an experience he'll never forget. Monroe is back home again af ter a trip that began in Ellzibeth City and was supposed to hare ended ai Camden Courthouse, but didn't. The Fates intervened, and the boy landed in Norfolk Instead. "Monroe likes to work," his mother explained Wednesday morning to a newspaperman who visited her home in quest of de tails of her son's experience. "He left homo Monday morning to go downtowu. Presently he called up and asked if he might go toXam den with a drummer. I tola him not to, alter he said he didn't know the man." The boy intended to go to the neighbor county in hope of gett ing a Job picking up sweet pota toes. He likes to work, according to his mother, and she would have been glad lor him to have gone, she said, but not with a stranger. The day waxed and waned, and the shadows of night gathered. Still Monroe had not returned home. By that time, the mother had become very anxious. Then the telephone rang. A voice at the other end of the Hue Informed her, Immensely to her surprise, that her son wus In Norfolk and was In safe hands. He returned home on the bus next morning after having spent the night as the guest of .Sergeant H. O. Church, of the Norfolk police force. "I hated mighty bad for him to bo In Norfolk that way," the mother said. "He had his every day clothes on when he left home, you know." Arrived safely home, Monroe told his tale to the family. De termined to make his way to Cam den. he had walked as far as the bridge across Pasquotank River. A Mniall truck came along, headed in that direction, and he asked the driver for a ride. The latter picked him up, and went on. Pre sently they reached Camden, and Monroe asked to be allowed to alight. The truck driver kept going. At Moyock, the boy tried to jump out, but his companion restrained him. There were strong evidences that he had been drinking. Monroe said afterward. On and on. farther and farther away from Monroe's home, the truek Journeyed. Finally, they crossed the Berkley bridge, Into Norfolk. The driver stopped. "Here's Camden," he announced tersely. "Gfet out." Monroe hesitated not a moment. Having no definite Idea where he was, he set out In quest of a police man. A walk of a mile through bowllderltigly crowded streets brought him to the intersection of Grnnby Btreet and City Hall ave nue Traffic Officer It. M. Grlf fln, on duty there, heard his story and turned him over to 8ergeant Church. The kindly sergeant promptly telephoned his mother, assuring her of her ion's safety, and took him to his own home at Ocean View to spend tho night. A bus ride next morning, and the moat notable chapter in Monroe's thir teen years was closed. "It's a wonder Monroe hadn't told 'em he was older than he was." Mrs. Horton remarked, In telling of the boy's unexpectedly long trip, "and that he didn't try to get work there, he wanted to work so bad. Hut I'm mighty glad he didn't."

Members of the hotel i board of directors state, however, | that they are reluctant to take that i step, because of the additional ex pense of collection.
