Croatan Picnic and Cotton Grow .' "Z X 4 era Association.; i Correspondents of Tbe Kobrsoalsh. v ' A meeting of the Croatan branch of the Cotton Grower's Association of Robeson county was held at Jim Dial's school house, Thursday, Aug. 9th, which was in every way a success. A nice covered stand was , erected for the speakers od seats pro vided for the audience : in the grove; At J 2 o'clock, noon, A. A. Locklear, presiding, in a few well chosen remarks, called the meet ing to order; prayer was offered by Rev. Gilbert Locklear, after which Mr. R. W. Dvermore was introduced and delivered one of the most instructive and pleasing addresses, filled with apt illus trations and amusing anecdotes. it has ever been our pleasure to hear, on the subject of "King Cotton.' During his remarks he expressed himself in no uncer tain terms. The association- as an organization knew no Demo crat, no Republican, no Populist and was an association in which all political shades could meet on an equal footing, as ii had noth ing to do with politics; but Jit was the duty of every farmer as an individual to exercise his po litical rights and see that good men were elected to fill the vari ous offices. As a whole it was a fine speech and for conservative- ness, ability and a knowledge of the . subject handled, reflected great credit on the speaker. At its conclusion dinner was an nounced, where fried chicken, ham, roast beef, breads of all kindscakes and pies, was in abundance with'icecold lemonade to quench the thirst, and not withstanding it rained in tor rents the crowd could not be driven away from so many good things. When dinner was ovor the meeting was again called to order and Cpl. fjamilton McMil lan, of Red Springs, was intro duced, who delivered, as usual'i one of his patriotic and edifying addresses. He only casually re ferred to the cotton interests, as Mr, Liyermore had so ably han dled the subject, but urged organization- He spoke principally of the progress and improvement in the (Jroatah people even with;a too past ten years; compared the past with the present, the churches and schools of today ana tne interest taken in them, making personal reference to the scenes around him which mdi cated great development and a still brighter future before them. He also cautioned the people about bringing politics into their association and referred to the alliance that prospered and did much good until politics was in troduced, then as an organization it went under. His remarks were received with a great deal of en thusiasm. At their conclusion Mr. John E. Carlyle was loudly called for and responded in his usual happy style. He took issue with Col.McMillan on the alliance question, stating the old alliance was not dead or dying; 82 lodges were still existing and doing business at the old stand and much good was coming from them. These remarks concluded the exercises, but there being a sprinkling of candidates on the grounds, a call was started for them. Mr. E. C. McNeill was called, but declined. Mr. W. H, Humphrey was next- called and responded with a very happy talk to his old friends and neigh bors, making no reference to any political question. Our next sher- hi, mr. j, a. earner, was men called and responded with a few remarks suited to the occasion, after which the crowd adjourned, all feeling a day had been pleas antly and profitably spent. Too much cannot be said in praise of the perfectjirder that was kept throughout the entire day, not a single incident happened to dis turb the perfect peace and pleas ure of the occasion' and we are glad we were there and hope for another opportunity.

It "seldom,, happens rfia a life time we have occasion to - take note of an incident thai. , brings with it so much genuine ; regret as the resignation of Capt.

He was a man possessed of fine abilities and skill in : his chosen profession, that of build ing roads' and equipping nigh ways with bridges and culverts for the convenience of travel. Two or three years ago, , and; I speak from experience, the roads around Lumberton and other townships of the county, ; were, almost impassible during bad weather; the numerous swamps tkrough which these roads lead, would almost swim ahorse, but these conditionshave wonderfully changed within the past two years. You can now travel from one end of the county to tne other and make good time, rain or shine, ana the baa swamps have been bridged and the road beds raised, and whatever may be said of the Wake county man and the objections raised, to him for this reason, it Is absurd and the argument of ignorance and prejudice. What he has done for the roads of old Robeson, stands as a lesson to those who may fol low, and will remain a monument' to the skill and ingenuity of the man. bo rules the intelligence of the county and it is a- de-; batable questional the opening of another presumably bad sea-1 son when the work done during 1 the summer under continued rains will fall down to a greater or less extent, whether the com missioners were wise in accept ing his resignation at this time, but required him to fill "out the term for which "he was' ejected one year hence- Robeson s loss will be Wake's gain, yet we may hope the exi gencies of the case the future may present, wijl force him back to our midst as time proves the need of his service.

They believe in education and keep in close connection with the world from ' which they are -de tached by the muddy waters of of Roanoke, as our readers know, is full of historic interest. Of course we visited the old fort where Vi rginia "Dare was born and where White, Colony was last seen as the ship sailed away for the shore of En gland. A circular row of stones marks the outline of the old fort while in the. center stands a modest monument telling the. simple story of the colony, that vanished out of sight. It gives one a peculiar thrill to stand on the historic sppt and see with bis eyes the place where the history of our great old Commonwealth had its beginning. Roanolfe.Island. Charity and Children. Harder to reach than Boston, Roanoke Island, which is the eastern rim of civilisation, is "wet worth the trip with all its changes and trials. The island is some twelve miles long by three miles wide, with a population of 2,500, and containing the county town of Manteo, named after the big chief of the tribe of Hatteras We have always wondered why the county seat of Dare ws es tab! i shed on an island cut off from the mainland by the sound A citizen explained the situation by saying that Roanoke island is the largest body of land in Dare county and within easy reach of the majority of Its" population. Dare Is mostly water. Sheriff Etheridge can reach nearly every citizen's home by boat, and if he owns a buggy he lias little use for it. On the island there is some fairly good farming land, but most of it is wet and boggy. On. the shore of the sea, some three miles away, there are great ranges of sand dunes that look like red. mountains in the dis tance, and that shift from place to place, covering everything that lies in their pathway. At Nag's Head there are' several buildings that are doomed, and It is a pitiful thing to see the sand slowly creeping toward a home that must finally be buried fifty feet under the huge red hill. The place where the ejd hotel .stood which was burned some . years ago) is covered with the sand and if the building had not been de stroyed by fire it would have been everwhelmed with sand. Nothing can stay the onward march of the monster- The wind blowing over it sends the deilcate sheet down toward the south and it is curious lo watch the process, so steady and yet so gentle, that results at last in utter destruction. It is one of the won ders of this section of the North Carolina coast, which abounds in so many things of natural as well as historic interest. . ; :; The principal business of the island is the. fishing industry. Many varieties of valuable fish are caught and the.: business has reached immense proportions. The discovery of gasoline as ' a motive power makes boating easy and swift." Hardly a" row-boat can be found on the bosom of the broad sound, but even the small er craft, which were formerly propelled by the laboring oars man, glides over thq, water by gasoline power. It is an easy matter . to . get. over ground (or rather sea), the average speed of the launches being from seven to. nine miles an hour. Manteo is a town of some six or seven" hundred souls and re sembles i the ordinary, seacoast village, ..which we nave setn wherever the ocean roars. The When the Hair Falls Then it's time to act!
