This is the Law I — By ROBERT E. LEE (For the N. C. Bar Association) Easements What is an easement? An easement is an interest in land which entitles the owner of 4he easement to use and enjoy land in the possession of another. An easement entitles a person to * do acts on the land of another he would otherwise not be privileged to do. The construction and mainten ance of telephone and electric or power lines on your land is an easement. You continue to own the land and to enjoy its possession. The public utility has merely a limited use of the land you own. A public utility may acquire an easement by condemnation proceedings. An adjoining property owner AMERICA’S GREATEST BASIC HOME VALUES Creative Custom Line Homes • Quality Built Anywhere • Built On Your Own Lot • A complete finished home on the outside can be built as low as $995 to $2595 cash. • Immediate Financing —No red tape.

Obsolete union work rulesj involving the rail 'road operating employees, are responsible for this t . gigantic burden. Right now, for instance, these' rules require every diesel locomotive to carry a 4 fireman —even though diesels have no fires to stoke, no boilers to tend.

He cannot do so, however, without your consent. If you object to a per son using your property in any way you must take legal action to stop such within twenty years. An easement may be acquired by prescription, without your consent, where there has been a continued uninterrupted adverse use for twenty years. A mere permissive use is not sufficient; it must be adverse. Other examples of easements are: The right to cross anoth er’s land, the right to take water from another’s land, the right to use a stairway or a toilet on an other’s land, the right to erect advertising signs, and the right to maintain a dam that floods back water upon adjacent land. Must easements be in writ ing? Express easements must be in writing, because they involve an interest in land. They are gen erally created by an express grant in the form of a deed. Implied easements are ease ments acquired by a continued and uninterrupted adverse use for twenty yearse and need not be in writing. What is an implied easement? Where one conveys a part of the real property he owns, he impliedly grants all those appar- THE CHOWAN HERALD. EDENTON. NORTH CAROLINA. THURSDAY.

For example, if a two story building with offices on the sec ond floor is conveyed, and ati i the time of the execution of thej deed the only means of ingress j or egress to the second floor | was by a stairway and hall through an adjoining building I owned by the grantor, the pur- j chaser acquires by implication a' continued right to use this stair way and hall. frankly Speaking By FranK Roberts Columbia RCA Victor, Capitol. I’ve joined all three record clubs i now. Who says a dee-jay gets enough music? My own private collection totals something above 2,000 records, mostly swing and jazz. Last week’s column mentioned i something about Errol Flynn. The actor passed away the day the column came out, although the column itself was written a few days before. On that sub ject, look at this list of movie artists who’ve only recently been claimed by sudden death: Errol Flynn, Mario Lanza, Wayne i Morris, Paul Douglas, Kay Ken dall (Mrs. Rex Harrison), Wil liam Bishop (good-looking co star of “It’s a Great Life,’’ which also starred Michael O’Shea), Edmund Gwenn. From state headquarters to 1 WCDJ comes a tremendously in teresting book entitled “A Gov ernor Sees the Soviet.” Con tains letters from Governor Hodges, along with photographs taken during his recent trip to Russia. If you’d like a free copy of this book, lemme know. A hundred pages—interesting and well written. Well, the fair is over, but it was fun. I was broadcasting three times a day, every day, during the run of the ..fair, but the biggest fun was taking youngsters down to the fair grounds. They loved the rides and the games and their happi ' ness made it so worth-while. Speaking of show-biz cele brities passing away, as I did earlier in the column, I note the passing away also of Randall Kent Kington. He was known professionally as Randy Kent and was the announcer for the Kukla, Fran and Ollie show. Remember the movie “Some Came Running?’’ Dean Martin > was always insulting Shirley ! MacLaine. They’ve made up ’ and in a new movie “Career,” A New Key to Bible Knowledge At a time when church membership in America is higher than ever before in our history, and Bible reading is at an all time peak, a publishing event of world-wide significance has. occurred.

When the complete text of the RSV Bible was i-ru-i rr.vr.n years ago, it caused a publishing sensation, selling out i: ; in t million copies in a month. Although it marked r.n change 1:1 Christian doctrine, it was hailed by scholars and critics r.ye.y where as a work long overdue.

The new translation made minute r a ‘of all great modern archeological discoveries and studies, in cluding the Dead Sea Scrolls. The center colu~.ti reference Bible, latest and meet impor tant in the RSV Bible series, tells the reader where he may find other passages in the Bible having a common theme with the one he is reading. Some references may illustrate the meaning of a particular verse. Others complete a thought, or indicate the outcome. Placed as close as possible to the verse to v. nich they relate, the references enrich Bible reading for everyone. With the concordance and list of proper names in the back of the book, the new RSV, reset in easy-to-read type, makes for ideal individual and family reading . . . and is the best possible gift at Christmas or any time. they become a romantic team. Speaking of the movies, remem ber child star Bobby Driscoll? The curly-headed lad who was outstanding in such movies as “The Window” and “So Dear to My Heart.” Now 22, he was ar rested in Hollywood on a narco tics charge. He’s unemployed. Don’t get much chance to ■watch tee-vee, but have quick checked some of the new sea son’s programs. “Goldie” turns out to be a waste of Betty Hut ton’s terrific talents; the new “Lineup’’ is a second-rate “Peter Gunn.” Tom Tully is missed; “Love and Marriage” features the wonderful William Demarest and the show is wonderful, too; i “Father Knows Best” and the “Danny Thomas Show” are back and still great as ever.
