Verdict Returned Last Wei
County Jury Gives 1John
B. Ward is the duly elect- *

ty Recorder's court according to j |
the decision of a New Hanover;
county jury, which last Wednes- j
day returned a verdict in his fa- j
vor at the conclusion of a suit
brought by D. R. Johnson, Repub- j
lican candidate.
After Some two hours deliber-;
ation, the jury voted "no" to the
issue: "Was the palintiff-relator,,
D. R, Johnson, duly elected to the
office of recorder of Brunswick |
county at an election held on the
third day of November, 1942, and
is he entitled to be inducted into
said office?"
Judge Jeff D. Johnson of Clin- j
ton, who has presided over the
eight-day election trial, denied a,
motion by attorneys for Johnson,!
who alleged improper procedure j
and fraud in the election which j
he lost by one vote, to set aside
the verdict.
The plaintiff then entered notice
of appeal to the state supreme
court. j
The judgment, signed bjf Judge (
Johnson on motion of defense attorneys,
declared that "John B.
Ward was duly elected . . . was 1

To Comply With Lighting
Rules For Area
At the scheduled meeting of the i
Army, Navy, Coast Guard and I
Civilian Defense organizations i
here last Wednesday, Colonel William
S. Pritchard of Fort Bragg
was the principal speaker.
Speaking from his own personal
knowledge of conditions, Brunswick
county, especially Southport,
came in for some well deserved I
criticism of the existing laxity of (
enforcement of the dim-out regu-1
lations. "These regulations," de-;
clared Colonel Pritchard, "were j
formulated by General Drum of .
the United States Army for the1'
purpose of protecting lives and '
property."
The General was indignant that
citizens in the persuit of pleasure
should fail to comply with the1
dim-out regulations by refusing, I
to turn out strong, exposed lights j
at their homes, or by failing to!
dim their auto headlights. He asked
for general cooperation in the
future, requesting all patriotic
citizens to report violations of the
rules. r

to comply with the dim-out laws . d
subjects the offenders to heavy ii
penalities. t
Before adjournment the organizations
represented at the meet- a

regarding enforcement. d

Digging Mussel
New Business
The war has suddenly converted
a heretofore useless product
of the North Carolina salt
marshes into a comodity of
much value. Mussels, which may
be found by the thousands in
all salt marshes, are now being
used extensively in the chemical
industries and it is said
that pickers in this area have
been making as much as $15.00
to $20,00 per day for the work
of gathering the shells.
The exact uses to which the
mussel shells are put is understood
to be a military secret.

Lightning Strikes

Lightning struck three times i
Monday about midnight during i
one of the worst electrical
storms to visit this community i
in years.
One bolt struck the steeple
at St. James A. M. E. /ion
church, causing some damage;
another hit a pole near the J.
E. Carr residence, and some
damage was caused inside the
home when the current ran in
on a wire and ruined a radio;
there has been no report of
where the third bolt hit.
There was a rainfall of
more than 3-inches during the
storm, bringing the total for
July to about 6-inches. This is
in contrast to the rainfall of
less than one-inch during the
entire month of June.

Gardeners Are
Canning Surplus,
Mr. And Mrs. Joe Walton
Are Cultivating Swamp
Garden And Are Making
Plans To Can All Surplus
Commodities
When he finished his long shift ,
n the Coast Guard and retired ,
owing to the age limit Joe Walton
probably had no idea on becom- ,
ing a gardener when he bought a
tiome in Southport and moved his
family here. 1
While. "Men mav come and 1
men may go," the women of the
family never retire. This year,
perhaps with encouragement, certainly
with hplp from Mrs. Walton,
Joe found himself growing
me of these swamp gardens. The
weather, which was mainly lack
jf rain, did not favor him so
much at the outset, but assisted
by Mrs. Walton, he kept the gar- i
Jen worked. The rains came last
week. Down in the swamp garJens
this week Mr. and Mrs. Walton
were found to have just ga- '
thered nearly a bushel of butterbeans
with only half the vines
picked over and the real crop only
getting started. Their other
jarden things were also doing
fine. ;
While Joe was discussing garJens
with another Swamp GarJener
across an intevening ditch
Mrs. Walton was asked what she
was doing with all of those butter
jeans and other garden products?
rhis was useless question 999.
rhe answer was, "We are canning i
sverything that we are growing,
accepting only what we serve
fresh on the table.

The month of June showed an

Iressings made in the two local
ted Cross workrooms for the U.

were made, the colored
workroom accounting for 2,210
f these.
In all, 142 women have worked
114% hours to make these dressngs,
the highest total of women
o work any month so far. The
lours are not so many as last
nonth but the workers are beoming
more proficient in the art
if dressings folding.
The workroom at the Army 4avy
building is now open every

lolored unit which meets at the
Irunswick County training school
s open two nights a week and a

There has been no abatement
