BIRTHS
Owners Informed to Keep
Their Dogs at Home or Take
Legal Consequences
Bathers who intend to pass thru
the streets of Beaufort this summer
must wear full bathing suits, accord
ing to an ordinance passed by the
Town Board of Commissioners at a
call meeting held in the mayor's of
fice at the Town Hall Monday even
ing at eight o'clock. Mayor Bayard
Taylor presided and the following
commissioners were present: Seth
Gibbs, F. L. King, D. W. Glover and
James Rumley. This ordinance regu
lating the costumes of bathers pass
ing through the streets of the com
munity came about as a result of var
ious men appearing on the streets
clad only in bathing trunks. (This
ordinance is printed elsewhere in the
Beaufort News).
Back in 1925 the Board passed an
ordinance on the first day of June
making it unlawful for any person or
persons fourteen years of age and
older to appear on the streets of
Beaufort without suitable wraps to
'cover them to the knees. This be
came effective ten days after the
first publication of th eordinance,
but was rescinded on the sixteenth
day of the same month.
The Board authorized Clerk T. M.
Thomas, Jr., to inform the citizens
of the Town of Beaufort, through
the medium of the Beaufort News,
that all dogs must be kept in ken
nels or pounds and not allowed to go
on the streets without being under
chain or leash, otherwise Ordinance
39 concerning the running of dogs at
large will be srictly enforced. (This
ordinance is reprinted elsewhere in
this issue of the Beaufort 'News.)
Commissioner Rumley and Clerk
Thomas were appointed by the Board
to investigate the costs of milk in
spection for the Town of Beaufort
and to determine whether the Town
or the dairymen shall pay the costs
of inspection if or when authorized.
This committee will report at the reg
ular monthly meeting for June, which
will be held Monday evening.
An ordinance was enacted instruct
ing the clerk to receive applications
for beer licenses, and upon approval
of the cBard of Commissioners, the
clerk to collect said licenses in ac
cordance with the schedules fixed by
the act of the General Assembly of
the State of North Carolina.

SHUCK OYSTERS AND CLAMS
NOW BY IMPROVED METHOD
(Special to The News)
Raleigh, May 29 Completing the
process of taking advantage of the
Door dumb oyster by causing him to
yawn by chemical application, mak-
ine- it easv to shuck him economically,
the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries Labor
atory at Beaufort has now worked
outa plan to open the tight-mouthed
clam as economically.
The method, worked out at the
laboratory by Dr. Vera Koehring and
Dr. H. F. Prytherch, after a series of
experiments, causes no shrinkage or
apparentloss of tissue fluids and the
meat is in the same condition as if
opened raw.
"Clams were found to be mucn
more difficult to open than oysters
and do not respond as readily to the
nhvsical and chemical treatment de
veloped for oyster shucking," Drs.
Koehring and Prytherch point out.
"The procedure is as follows: The
clams are immersed in a warm bath
of fresh or sea water having a tem
perature of 105 degrees, Farenheit,"
or, they say, it may fluctuate from
100 to 110 degrees, and additional
heat should be added to compensate
for the cooling the clams produce.
"In our experiments 100 per cent
of the clams have opened their shells
in from 10 to 20 minutes and when
removed from the bath a few min
utes later were completelyy narcotiz
ed and unable to close their shells.
The shells are opened for about one
half inch so that the meats can be
removed with comparative ease.
"The process is suitable for eith
er the raw trade or canning of hard
clams. In the latter industry it is
much preferable to the present meth
od of steamine clam9 to open them,
which causes a loss of about 50 per
cent of the tissue fluids. The meth
od will be tested commercially."
Clam production in North Caroli
na amounted to 81,743 bushels, val
ued at $143,050 during the bienm
um of 1926-30, and 70,261 bushels
valued at $70,261 in 1931-32, the
Conservation and Development de
partment reports. Cooperating with
the laboratory, the department pre
dicts that more efficient methods of
opening the oysters and clams will
be of considerable economic impor
tance to the industry of this State.
