THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 136 1 m i riinnn-ll-1 No Help Came To Fight Foreat Fire Local game officials made every effort to curb the recent forest fires which burned over thousands of acres in Carteret county and destroyed all kinds of wild life. They were aided by nearby residents, but the blaze had gained such head way that it was impossible to check the flames. If Carteret county officials were wise enough to establish a forest fire warden system a repetition of the recent fire would prob ably not occur. But Carteret thinks not about her timber lands and her wildlife. An appeal was sent out by local game officials to district, state and national agencies, asking for aid to curb the flames but they were adverse to lending assistance when a county such as Carteret with thousands of acres of timber lands, fails to take up the of-! ler lor hre warden service . . . To put it plainly the Democrat ic administration has failed to secure for Carteret, forest fire warden service. November is coming and maybe a keen idea for the Republicans to put in effect is to announce be forehand that they will if elected to offices have FOR EST FIRE WARDEN SER VICE in Carteret it might change the administration.

Old newspaper files reveal that he too published a splendid newspa per for readers in this county. A.B.) This Week's Obituaries The Farmers Are Getting A Break Farmers of Carteret county are getting splendid prices for their Irish potatoes. It has been quite some time since they brough $6 a barrel on local markets and $8 in New York but that has been the prices received during the past two or three days- Farmers are getting a break, insofar as price is concerned, even if the .weather has reduced the ann ual harvest. Farmers of Car teret will get additional breaks when they adopt irrigation methods. We have the soil and the climate for growing every sort of produce crop but Mother Nature must be given a hand. . . and that hand is irrigation. After irrigation this area will become world famous for its produce farmlands. JOHN S. GASKILL John Stanford Gaskill, 70, died at his home here Wednesday following a lingering illness.

Longest counted when Ed Potter sacrificed. Brooks homered to deep center in the next stanza and the last three markers were pushed over in the eighth. Longest got his second straight hit of the day, stole and scored on Potter's hit. Hatsell singled, sending Potter to third. C. Hassell's safety scored Potter. Hat sell crossed the plate on Willis' fielder's choice. All together the locals collected 12 hits off O. Fulcher and D. Fulcher. E. Potter caught for Beaufort and L. Fulcher for Stacy. The defensive work of the local outfield featured as did the work f Willis, left bander of Stacy. In fact, both teams played a bang-up game. Beaufort erred but twice and Stacy not at all. An odd coincidence of the game was the fact that seven of the nine Stacy players were Fulchers and all brothers or cousins.
