' . j Complaint comes from the strawber ry; belt especially from the Chad bourn section where the movement! is heaviest, jof a serious shortage of re frigerator; cars In which to move the crop. Unless the situation is speedily relieved it is said that thousands of dollars of. damage will be sustained by growers by their inability to market their, product as speedily as they had finds it impossible to get quick returns of emptier from 'the' Pennsylvania sys tem which is said to be just at present laboring under an unfortunate conges tion of freight -traffic on its lines. So great was the demand for, cars yes4 terday It, is said, that thousands of crates of berries were loaded into the ordinary; A. C L. cars and carried on up the road to meet the refrigerator empties i on their return ; from i the North, the berries being transferred to the Armour car, which are re-iced at South ' Rocky Mount' and hurried -on through, j The fruit ripened this year phenomenally fast .and the ' movement reached giant proportions earlier than was ever known before. In conse quence thereof, it iwas seen early in the season that a shortage was im pending and everything in human pow er was; done to meet the condition, but it seems that the efforts have been only partially successfuL Monday it is expected that the heav iest ne-day shipments ever known from any strawberry growing belt will go forward. If the weather is favor able it Is said that 200 cars will not be sufficient to handle all the consign ments offered. With Sunday interven ing, nowever, tne transportation peo ple hope to at least very largely re lieve the car shortage and It is hoped that the heavy -Shipments will be equally as profitable . to growers as those of the past week have been. The movement of berries yesterday was the heaviest of the season, though from the Chadbourn section not so many cars went forward as on a pre vious day during the week, the in crease in W. ft W. shipments making the total shipments largest From the Chadbourn belt 129 ears went forward during the .day and up to 11 o'clock last night something like 60 had been moved on the Wilmington ft Weldon, PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS.

The Star gladly gives space to the following communication regarding the annual pUgrimage of the! Colonial Dames 'to the ruins - of St Philip's church at Old Brunswick next Tues day:" ' - -X ' : . i f ''XX". i :'X- ' With reference to the annual pilgri mage of the North Carolina-Society of the Colonial Dames to Old Bruns wick and St. Philip's church to which all of our citizens are cordially invited, it may be well to inform our inhabi tants as to the aim and purpose of these excellent women, who are actu ated by the patriotic motive of rescu ing from decay and utter oblivion the fast failing records and relics ' which tell of noble deeds in years gone by. In this strenuous age of nnprecedent- i ed development there appears to be I litlia vonratlon for the nloseers who I established tnirtolotTy "amid the tlan- gers of the wilderness and the, war- J whoop of tne savage." Nor tor tne j statesmen, who upheld the! , principles of the Declaration of independence, nor for the soldiers who yielded their lives in order that these; principles might be maintained. Many of the neglected and forgotten graves of the heroes of the Revolu-j tion have been desecrated! by unholy! hands. . For many years the moulder ing dust of one of the bravest and the best of North Carolina's sons has been profaned by ruthless hands and the special feature of the present pilgri mage will be the re-interment in the old grave yard of St. Philip's church all that is mortal of Chief Justice Al fred Moore. . v :- -i v - - The noble - sentiment - of Rasselas should find a lodgement still in the hearts of our people. "I honor the laurels which' overshadow! the graves of our fathers."- x --xxs i i fx.x By the courtesy of the commanding officer of Ft Caswell the garrison band will furnish music for the occasion and these musicians as well as the officers and their wives will be the guests of the Society.. All others attending are expected to bring their luncheon as no refreshments will : be X sold 'ton "the grounds." There Is no admission tee to Old Brunswick and the only expense will be the charge of the steamer Wil mington of 50c for adults; 35 cents for school children, both for the round trip. An "abundance of pure cistern wa ter has been provided, and rustic seats beneath wide-spreading trees afford "ai boundless contiguity of shade."
