EDENTON, N. C. 1,-:. __ ,■ -■ _ ’ Pay Night Produces Smiles To Guardsmen There were smiles on many of the faces of the members of the Edenton National Guard this week. Reason being, they received their first pay checks. They are also happy because Captain William P. Jones, command ing officer, announced at i their last drill meeting on Friday night in the Edenton armory that Staff Sergeant Walter Mills was, to leave for At lanta, Ga., to pick up the first issue of rolling stock frpm Army supply, in the form of a three-quarter ton wea pons carrier. “The men are anxious to begin training on the tank and radio equip ment,” states Captain Jones, “and we are doing everything we can to have our allotment cleared through military channels.” Asked by several high school stu dents if they can join if they are only 17 years of age, Captain Jones re plied that new regulations petmit this type of enlistment without par ents’ permission.

His sedate 3 mate sat on his right, while on his s left he was somewhat startled to dis cover a well-known dancer gowned in - the most extreme decollette. 3 The unsophisticated statesman shot - several surreptitious glances at the 5 fair danseuse, and several times he' PAGE FIVE opened his mouth to speak. But at the sight of so much feminine loveli ness so boldly displayed he Was struck dumb. Suddenly the perspiring politician felt a stiff jab in his ribs and the voice of his better half hissing: “John! John! For heaven’s sake, talk to that woman or they’ll think she’s your wife!” Brought Them Along Mr. Smith: “My wife came from a very larje family. Did yours ?” Mr. Brown: “No, she brought it with her.”
