on hand Monday at the county com-j
missioners' meeting Monday it is still
an important one. Delegations from
several sections of the county were.
n hand f or the purpose of present-
ing their claims as to road improve-
ments. In order to accomodate the
crowd the board went upstairs to the
county court room ana neard tne i
various delegations.
Mr. L. E. Ennett of Stella on be
half of the people in White Oak
township presented a petition and
made a talk in favor of a hard sur
face ro&d up Bogue Sound to the
west. He was followed by W. G.
Mebane and E. Walter Hill of Beau- j
fort. R. T. Wade of Morehead City,
Dr. W. Thos. Ennett of Richmond,;
Va., all of whom stressed the great
need of a road in the western part of j
the county. Something of a contro- j

Indications now point to the
fact that in a short time work
will begin on the much talked
of bridge between Beauofrt
and Morehead City. In thU
Issue of the News there is a
notice calling for bids on
175,000 cubic shards of dirt
fill on the proposed structure.
The bids are to be opened
Monday October the 5th. The
work is to be paid for by the
county and will be a part of
the sum to be a'dvanced th
to the State Highway Commis
sion by the county., 'It is al
so possible that the Highway
Commission will let a con
tract for the rest of the bridge
