Newport First Grade Presents Special Program A program for parents at Thanksgiving time has become a tradition in the first grade o I Mrs. Mary C. Millis, Newport. This it the account of the most recent one. Before Thanksgiving our first grada talked about how many things we should be thankful for. W? decided our homes, our churches, and our schools were the three most important things in our lives. We invited our Mamas to visit our room so we could share our Thanksgiving thoughts with them. For our devotional we had learned the 100th Psalm and a new prayer. Each of us could say a thank you poem. We sang songs and said poems as a group also. At the end of our program we played two numbers with our toy instru ments. What a happy time we had shar ing with eighteen Mamas and some little sisters and brothers.

About By Harry Venters, 4-H Advisor The December 4-H Club schedule will be as follows: Tuesday, Dec. 9, Camp Glenn and Morehead sen ior; Wednesday, Dec. 10, Newport; Thursday, Dec. 11, Atlantic; Fri day, Dec. 12, Harkers Island; Mon day, Dec. IS, Beaufort Interme diate. There will be an evaluation meeting soon in Wilmington to de termine the strong points of the Area 4-H Honor Program and means of improving it next year. As you know, this was a brand new idea this year and while there are a few rough spots to be ironed out, it was still a very good pro gram. It is the intention of the sponsors to improve th? program each year, keeping A flexible enough to meet changilfl needs. Any program that can arouse enough interest to the extent that this one did is good. Our 4-H'ers learned a lot by preparing their exhibits, but they learned still more when they saw many exhibits pre pared by 4-H'ers from other coun ties. I overheard one 4-H'er remark that he didn't know you could grow sweet potatoes like the ones on ex hibit in Wilmington, especially the blue ribbon winners. I'm sure that this boy will be successful in grow ing potatoes like this, because now he has a new goal. This will hold true in many things, from electri cal appliances made by 4-H'ers to cakes and dresses. Project record books will be given to most 4-H'ers at the meet ing this month. Several project record books, including clothing, baking, and electric have not been received, but all other project books will be distributed. Others will be given to 4-H'ers as so<yi as they are received at this office. I hope that all 4-H'ers will show their record books to their parents and get them to help and advise them on their project work. The 4-H'ers that have the support of their parents are in a real position to learn and complete their projects. DON T MISS THF FIRST SHOWING MMh HUM iwrnni "MM M IM MM U."

Can Wreck During Weekend Bfchvay patrelaen investigated two wrecks over tke weekend. One occurred at 11 p.m. Saturday on highway W at the forme* Smyrna drive-in theatre and the other hap pened at 9:20 Sunday night on the Milt Creek Road. A 1959 Ford station wagon went over sideways into a ditch Satur day night. According to patrol man J. W. Sykes, Louis Edward Willis, Smyrna, was driving. With him was his wile and in the back seat, Charles B. Piner, High Point. Ptaer and Willis suffered cuts on their face and head. Mr. and Mrs. Willis started off to the Sea Level Hospital in the Adair ambulance and the patrolman followed min utes later, carrying Piner to the hospital. The patrolman saw the ambu lance parked in Elmer Willis's yard at Williston and stopped. Julius Adair, driver of the ambu lance said he stopped when "some one" grabbed him by the neck and nearly wrecked the ambulance. The patrolman then took all three in his car. Willis has been charged with driving drunk and Piner with public drunkenness. Damage to the station wagon was estimated at $250. Raymond Thomas Graham, Mill Creek, turned over the 1958 Edsel he was driving on the Mill Creek road. He has been charged with driving 110 miles an hour and care less and reckless driving. He was trying to elude patrol man W. E. Pickard and patrolman Jenkins who were in pursuit. Gra ham was not hurt. Marines to Conduct Live Firing on Browns Island Camp Lejeune ? The Marine Corps will be conducting live can non firing exercises on Browns Is land and vicinity 10, 11, and 12 December 1958, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. All fishermen, pleasure boaters, and hunters are advised to stay clear of this area during those hours. Only Three Seek Advice On Hurricane Damages Only three prrsou showed up Saturday morning at the court house to hear Cray Hassell, engi neer for the county, explain the regulations under which they may be eligible for federal aid to re pair hurricane damage. They were Ira Morris and Lu ther Smith, Atlantic, and Richard Whitehurst, Gloucester. Mr. Uassell stated that a state Civil Defense engineer will visit the property of those who believe they are eligible for aid. If the engineer believes the property will qualify, an application will be filed by the county. Mr. Uassell was far from en couraging. He emphasized that temporary, emergency repairs are the only things permitted under the federal hurricane "repair" law. Since so much time has elapsed since Helene, he said it is going to be rather difficult con vincing federal authorities that anything done now is an "emer gency". The only thing he said that he can possibly see, other than the help given towns for clearing de bris and opening sewers, may be shoreline restoration ? on a tem porary basis. Mr. Hassell said there will be no dredging done nor placement of riprap financed by federal CD funds. Mr. Morris reported that an in let had been cut through near his cabins two miles north of Drum Inlet. Mr. Hassell said that filling in the inlet would not be approved. He added, however, that it may be possible to get some sand fences if Mr. Morris will put them up. Mr. Hassell reported that he flew over Core Banks Friday and House Razed The home at the east end of Bridges Street, Morehead City, used for several years by More head Shipbuilding Corp. as an of fice building, has been torn down. It was built in 1915 by Manley Wade, sold to Judge Luther Hamil ton in 1920 and occupied by the Hamiltons until July 1, 1949. all of the northern part is awash. The sea and the sound have joined. At a result of the repeated storms and destruction of the outer banks barrier, he commented, nor mal tides at Belluven and New Bern are now 14 inches higher than they were before Hazel. Damage at Ocracoke, he said, amounts to about $700, but it would require an expenditure of about $4,000 to make those repairs, and the work, for that reason, simply will not be approved. The meeting was planned by the county board to give property own ers an opportunity to put their cases before the county. Persons expected from Cedar Island and Cedar Point did not show up. Two Officers Find Still at North River Marshall Ayscue, ABC officer, and deputy sheriff Bruce Edwards yesterday put a 55 gallon still out of commission in tfc* North River section. The still was ivuul Fri day. The officeri fixed it so that it couldn't be operated until they could get back to break it up. Mr. Ayacue said it looked as though It hadn't been operated for some time. The ABC officer, accompanied by Beaufort police and members of the sheriff's apartment checked some houses in Beaufort Saturday night for bootleg whiskey. Mrs. Bud Jones, Tine Street, was booked for having a small amount of non-taxpaid whiskey. Eyeglasses were not invented un til around the end of the 13th cen tury.
