SECTION TWO—]
New Schedules For I
Bus Line Announced
Carolina Trail ways Now
Operating Norfolk
Southern Line
Carolina Traihvays, which took over
the operation of Norfolk Southern
Bus System on March 1, has an
nounced revised time-tables and new i
thru services to become effective on
that date. This announcement comes
from W. G. Humphrey, traffic mana
ger of Carolina Trailways, of Ra
leigh. i
There are to be five daily bus de
partures for Norfolk each day from
cities and communities which lie on
route US 17 south of Elizabeth City—
such as Washington, Williamston, 1
Windsor, Edenton and Hertford. There
will be 6 daily trips between Eliza
beth City and Norfolk, 4 of them via*
Camden, Sligo and Moyock, and two
of them via South Mills.
Another thru bus to Philadelphia
and New York, via Norfolk and the
eastern shore route, has been added
from US 17 points which includes the
local terminal. The first thru bus ser
vice between Wilmington and New .
York over Norfolk-Southern routes (
was started in December, Humphrey
points out. and the additional thru bus “
is part of the further expansion of s
this type service in this area. -v
Humphrey also announced, effective e
March 1, a thru bus service between r
Norfolk and Raleigh via Elizabeth
City. Hertford, Edenton. Windsor and|
Rocky Mount, and one from Columbia
to Raleigh which is routed via Eden- '
ton. 0
According to the March 1 departure 0
time-tables, the Raleigh thru coach s .
leave the local terminal at 8:55 A. M., ®
and 3:50 P. M., with 2 other depart- '
ures daily which require a change at
Williamston leaving the local termi
nal at 9:10 and 12:40 P. M.
Northbound buses, thru to Philadel
phia and New York, leave the local
terminal each day at 12:15 P. M., and
8:40 P. M. Call the terminal for other
daily service to Norfolk and points
north.
Humphrey explains that it will take {
a little time to integrate the former
services of the Norfolk Southern sys- 1
tern into that of Trailways. The thru j*■
buses announced are the early steps r
in that direction. | r
“Perhaps the most important change 1
Trailways has been able to bring c
about,” Humphrey remarked, “is a
steady, day-to-day departure schedule
in this area. Instead of a minimum of
trips between Monday and Friday
with much added service on week
ends, which has been the case, Trail- !
ways is to operate an equal number
of trips every day. The only excep
tion to this daily service is one added (
bus northbound and southbound on ,
Sunday night primarily for military
personnel who must report to bases in
the Norfolk area or at Camp Lejuene

“Over the years,” Humphrey added,]
“we’ve found that a reduction of bus
service on Monday thru Thursday,
with a substantial increase on week
ends confuses the public. What's
more, it sometimes confuses the bus
terminal agents too!”
“Dependable, steady, on-time ser- '
vice, regardless of the weather or day
of week, builds confidence in our mode
of travel,” Humphrey said, “and after
all that’s what we are trying to do in
developing Trailways travel in the
Norfolk Southern area.”

wear and make necessary repairs.
A bamboo rod that has been used
much will need a new coat of varnish
each season. A light coat of varnish
will greatly improve the appearance of
a glass rod; even a steel rod will be
the better for varnishing.
The varnishing job is the same on
all rods. Go over the finish with 00
steel wool. This rubbing down should
be light, just enough to dull the old
coat and give a “tooth” for the new.
After using the steel wool, wash the
rod with a rag and gasoline or carbon
tet. Then don’t touch any part that’s
going to be varnished —even a slight
i trace of natural oil from your fingers
i can keep th new coat from sticking
j well.
I For a good job. the room tempera
ture should be at least 70 degrees F.
|lt is best to work alone in a closed
j room; don’t move around any more
j than you have to or you’ll stir up dust
that you can’t see until it’s on the
J rod. sticking out like a sore thumb,
i Use onlv a rod varnish put out by a
reliable tackle company. Rub a little
jof this varnish between your thumb
and forefinger and wipe it onto the
rod. Do this quickly, and don’t rub
it in or you’ll mess things up. A
glance at the rod against the ,nt
will show if you’re missing any spots. |
Do not put on a heavy coat. Youj
' might think a heavy coat would look
I better, last longer, or give more pro
' tection. Actually, it does the exact
■ opposite of all three. The lighter the
] coat the better, just so it covers every- !
where. |
Hang the rod, by the ferrules or,
guides, in a closet where there will be i
no air stirring. By morning the var- 1
nish should be dry enough to be safe
jfrom dust, but perhaps it won’t be safe
I to handle for at least 12 hours more.
A good elastic rod varnish is slow
drying. The fast-drying kind gets
brittle and cracks under the bending
a rod is subjected to.
You write with ease to show your
breeding,
But easy writing's curst hard reading.

A traveler in a rural area noticed
a farmer having trouble with his

a short distance, and stop. Then the
farmer would have difficulty in get

“Is your horse sick?”
“Naw, he ain’t sick.”
“Well, is he balky?”
“Naw, he ain’t balky,” was the re

We smile at the lazy horse, yet man
is as lazy as he dares to be. He works
only to remove uneasiness—from his
simple hunger to his desire for em
pires. In acting to reach a place
where he will not be uneasy, he
achieves goals that benefit everyone.
Freedom to try, plus man’s inborn de
sire for ease, make the free enter
prise system the most successful way
of life ever known. Regulation and
control of his efforts to free himself
from uneasiness, choke the breath that
•made America supreme among the na
tions of the world. Harness him, feed
him regularly' and he moves only
when the whip is used—living only to
hear someone say, “whoa”.
Power, like desolating pestilence,
Pollutes what ere it touches; and obe
dienee,
Bane of all genius, virtue, freedom,
truth,
Makes slaves of men, and of the hu
man frame
A mechanized automation.
