HARKERS ISLAND NOTES.
At last ladies and gentlemen the
people of Harkers Island have made
a great discovery. They have found
ti e cause vf so much appendicitis on
the Island a few months back. I un
derstand the doctor's latest reports
are to the effect that the great cause
of appendicitis here is from walking
on the main road. Whoever would
have thought of such a thing! But,
since one comes to think of it, it
sound reasonable, that is it is one
familiar with this main road. There
are more bumps on it to the square
inch than there is on an orange peel.
While we are on the subject of
roads, it might be well to expound
the merits of the new corporation
being formed in the Metropolis of H.
I. A road sonstruction Co. is being
formed to pave our roads with 0 Boy
Gum. Quite a project, believe me.
That's about the only way we will ev
er have a hard surfaced road.
Rev. D. R. Earnhardt of this place
had a tough spell of sickness last
week. The idea hit him that it would
be a novel experience to visit the
light ship this month. So he did. He
says that the best he can remember
hp became very much disinterested in
China and the affairs of the far East
at the Inlet. The sea was rough and
they had taken too much freight so
Mr. Earnhardt proceeded to unload.
He says the light ship is all right
but she's in the wrong place.
The people of the Island were de
lighted to have Congressman Aber
nethy over from Cape Lookout. The
most deightful thing was his great
interest in Cape Lookout and Hark'
er's Island. He made the statement
that he should continue to come to
Cape Lookout if he had to wade. All
who visit Harkers Island or Cape
Lookout feel the same as he asked
the O'Niels if Harkers Island isn't
the finest place in the State to live
bar none. I have an idea that they
wouldn't swap their estate here for
"The Big Bluff of Morehead City."
There were four Harker's Island
Fords on the roads of the main land
Sunday. What do you know about
that for grit and determination. To
carry a car from Harkers Island a
cross the water to the main land. If
people travel that way at such odds,
how many more would travel it with
moderate conveniences? I wonder
how man yof you reading this tonight
would have come to Harker's Island
last Sunday had there been some way
to make it without endangering your
car. I'd like to have your name and
address on a postal card, if it dosen't
inconvenience you any. you'll find my
name at the bottom of this (I haven't
a name for it) and you surely know
my address.
