Among the privileges of Presi' dents is that of designating name: for the Nation's warcraft, a privilege eagerly accepted by PresiJent Roosevelt and just now exercised in the case of four battleships and four cruisers. Mr. Roosevelt, who also has just named a new airplane carrier, devotes much study and long reflections to the picking ol names. Needless to say selectior must be made with one eye or listory and the other on local pride and prejudice. The individual who bestows lames on Pullman cars has wide latitude, as he who travels maj easily see, but a President naming warships is limited by the custom of giving names of States to battleships, names of cities tc cruisers, those of naval heroes tc destroyers and of game fish tc submarines.

The present party was composed of Irving Guyer, assistant director of the New York Art Museum, and Miss Margaret White and Claude Hawell, of Wilmington. Like the other artists that have been here this summer, Guyer was very much impressed with Southport's pictorial scenery. With a party of half-dozen or more artists he will come here Saturday of next week and spend the day in blocking off scenes. Early the following morning the Civic Club secretary will play conductor and guide to Bald Head Island where the party hopes it will he able to transfer at least 50 of the natural scenic beauty spots to canvass. For one of his special subjects Sunday Guyer picked out the old Brunswick Inn fronting on the river and on the southwestern corner of the old slave market block. The two-foot remanant of the old brick slave stockade wall also went into the painting. This wall formerly ran around the entire block, was about twelve feet tall and was surmounted on the top with broken bottles to keep the slaves from climbing over and escaping. In addition to the artists, Sunday brought a lot of people with cameras to Southport from various sections of the state. At one time just after a large Charlotte party had returned to port with a good catch of fish there were six of these cameras going at one time. (Continued on page 4) ial and Incomf Sol.

You members of the Humane Society, hold everything! Here's a nomination for your title of "Meanest Man In The World." Late one afternoon last week Mrs. Robert Maultsby says that she heard someone knocking bisisiantly at the home of her father next door. When nobody answered she decided that .po??ibly she should go over and explain that Mr. and Mrs. Arnold were away. When she came out on the porch she saw that there were two men in front of her father's door. Suddenly she was amazed to see one of the men reach down, pick up a small kitten and slash off it's tail with a pocket knife. At that moment the man saw Mrs. Maultsby, and he dropped the cast and amputated tail to the floor. "What <do you mean by cutting that cat's tail off," she demanded. "I didn't," the man whom she failed to recognize, res aonaea. "I saw you," she declared. Eclipse Of Moo Considt afe !!
