It appeared la the raagarine. Law and Order, nd waa written by the wile of a law enforcement officer la Moataaa). Matt of the people of our town admire and respect my husband, but tome dislike him. You aee, he it a policeman. Those who dialike him are people to whom he has given traffic tickets or in aome way prevented them from break fa* the law. Ttaight he Is at work. A* he checks dbors, he might find one opea and he will walk into the atom. Someone could be hiding be hind a Cbunter? gun in hand. He often tells me about businessmen who leave doors open. There la always the fear and terror in a cdp's wife's heart that some IMrning he Won't be coming home to her. The nights are long. Our town la tmaU, under t.000 people. We have oiily lour pdlice men and these men rotate shifts. Each all if three weeks on one khift, then one week off. With this schedule, we always have ad of ficer on duty. They are paid $M0 k thftnth and I get mad everytime I overhear someone saying they <M't earn it. The public doesn't really know the many things they are called upon to do. They rush pregnant womerl to the hospital? and some times barely make it. They give their pocket money to poor kids so they may have a hot lunch at stMOL They Malat the caretaker Uke bodies off the train. IB Ctneffenciel, they drive the ambulance. Some nights they are call ad upon to take guns from enraged huabaods and to Met farhBy quarrela. tf any timet they atop stolen care with three or four men in them. These art the timet that an officer pray* the men aren't armed ai he wallet toward the ear. Sometimea the performance of duty ia diatasteful to an officer. U waa necessary for my husband to five a ticket to his life-long friend? and since that time the man haa never spoken to my hus band. As they go to work each night, they ar? willing to give their lives in the protection of their community. I remember the night when I waa alone with the children and aa I looked out of the window, noted ? ear driving paat alowly. I remember the telephone calls, the Strang* voice aaking for my hus band. He knew he waa at work and yet tha phone rang every hour. 1 could not reach my huaband beeauae we live out at the city limits. He has to get in touch with the sheriff's department and by the time the sheriff gets bare the strange car would diaappear and the phone calls quit. Bat I waa scared and chills ran down my apine. I called my best friend and she stayed with me until my huaband came home from work. He haa been a patrolman for eight years and ?ach day or night holds the possibility of grief. My husband was born to be a cop. He believes so strongly in law and order! After two years in the army, he spent four years in Richland, Washington, had FBI training and has spent the last five yeara in this town. I give my thanks to God to I the brave men who every day are willing to give their live* se that communities all over our Mtantfy may be free from crime, in par ticular I pay tribute to my husband because I love him very muA.

President T. T. "Tom" Potter presided at the meeting, conducted at the More head City municipal building. Treasurer George Stovall was appointed chairman of a perma nent rules committee. Members of the new committee are Ottis Purifoy, Bob Simpson, Red Willis, Earl Thompson, Hubert Fulcher, M. L. Snipes, Johnny Styron and B. J. White. Mr. Simpaon, executive secre tary of FabFlah, said that he was ready for the biggest summer, promotion-wise, that the organiza tion has seen. He reported that re quests for information about fish ing in this area are already pour ing in. Pat Taylor of WITN-TV, Wash ington, presented an outline of Va cation Varieties, a program that, will feature vacation facilities in Morehead City and at Atlantic Beach. The FabFishermen will meet again at 7:30 p.m. April 30, a week from tomorrow. This will be a general meeting and all mem bers and interested citizens are invited.

Farmland Price Up 5 Per Cent The price of farmland is contin uing its general upward trend and demand for farmland remains strong, despite the drops in farm Income. Charles R. Pugh, farm manage ment specialist for the N. C. Agri cultural Extension Service, points out that in the 12-month period end ing Nov. 1, 1957, the value of farm land in North Carolina was up i per cent. The national average for this period was even higher ? 8 per cent. Mr. Pugh says the market prices of farm real estate are expected to advance further in 1958, al though the increase may be a little less than in 1957. More selective screening of loan applications for farm mortgages may act as a brake. But other factors responsi ble for the rise in values since 1954 are still present and likely to con tinue. Among these are demand for land for nonfarm uses, government programs for agriculture and the cost reductions that can be realized by operating larger farms. Improved highways and the strong desire of city people for country living Is likely to continue to disperse population and indus try into previously rural areas, Mr. Morehead Football Boosters To Elect Officers Tonight The Morehead City Football Boosters Club will meet at 7:30 tonight at the Hirtel Fort Macon dining room. Purpose of the meet ing will be to elect officers and diacuu the Morehead City foot ball program. The Boosters are not a pressure group and have no desire to con trol any part of the program. Their only aim, according to Dr. Russell Outlaw, ia to give money to the school to promote football. Coach Norman Clark will speak at the meeting tonight. Social Period In addition to the business, there will be a social period. Movies of the North Carolina State-Univer sity of Miami football game will be presented. Free refreshments will be served, courtesy of Booster Nick Galantis and the Busy Bee Restaurant. Dr. Outlaw will preside at the meeting. He lists the following slate of candidates as submitted by the nominating committee: for president, Bernard Leary, Dom Femia and John Baker; for vice president, Thomas Oglesby, Bill Durham and Frank Cheek. For secretary, Skip Willis; for treasurer, Nick Galantis; for pub lic relations chairman.

Sign Painted Two coats of white paint have been put on the sign at the junc tion of Arendell and Bridges Streets west of the city limits. The Boosters painted one coat and the atrect department painted one coat. The sign will have "Welcome to Morehead City, home of the state AA-C football champions" painted in red letters. Red and white are the school colors of the Eagles. G. E. Sanderson, Morehead City street commissioner, says that the state plans to clear off the area around the sign and plant grass to the city limits, where the street department has already begun to get grass seed planted. Nominations Planned New York <AP) ? A committee has been set up to nominate a new presiding bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church, who will be elected at the church's general convention in Miami next Octobcr. He will assume office when the Rt. R*v. Henry Knox Sberrill retires at the end of 1958. Pugh maintains. And there ap pears to be little prospect that the pressure to enlarge existing farma wiU slacken in the next few years, since thousands of commercial farms are still too small for tha most efficient use of modern pro duction techniques.
