Along the coast where most of the vegetation is green throughout the year the change from summer to autumn season is not so no ticeable through the change Ail tuiui ui leaves wig trees. Instead of the leaves changing color and herald ing tne advance ot Autumn along the coast, the waters of nearby bays and sounds change color. Perhaps you have noticed this change. The water changes from a light pastel blue or green to a deep blue or deep green. This change in color is caus ed by the shifts of wind, which during the summer time prevais from the ocean. It is the result of "mullet shifts" or winds from the north and northeast. The first "mullet shift" came about 10 days ago. And that brought on another fish ing activity along the coast. With the first "mullet shift" commercial fishermen in coastal towns hurry out on the water and start setting their nets.

Coastal High Schools Should Adopt New Sports. Coastal High schools should adopt new sports. There are not many schools in trie salt water towns oi the State which can compete with schools of the interior when it comes to baseball and football but these schools could excell in sports of another type. The Beau fort Xews editor has dis cussed with Principal Ralph Miller the possibility of or ganizing swimming teams, rowing teams and sailboat ing teams among the local school students. The sug gestion will be offered the high schools of other coastal communities, Manteo, Hat teras, Ocracoke, Atlantic, Smyrna, Morehead City, Swansboro, Wilmington and Southport. If interest is shown in the proposal who knows but what by next . . ., lit -ii vrmg it would be possible to nresent inter-school con- tests and possibly a grand i finale of all school's aquatic! tpurrw snmptimc in Al;iv. It would create an interest not only along the coast but throughout the State and it would be something new. In the years to come the coastal high schools with their aquatic sports may at tract as much attention as the up-state schools now at tract with their foot-ball, baseball and track teams. Who will help carry this idea through? What About The Beaufort Extension?

If this ar rangement does not continue and should the rolling stock of the connecting carrier cease to enter Beaufort, will the money-making Beaufort- Morehead City Kailroad pur- chase her own rolling stock and make enough money from such an operation to assure the up-kaep of the feeder line originating in Beaufort? And-or will the new operators of the con necting carrier if there are new operators show an un cooperative spirit and try to shift the business now origi nating in Beaufort to More head City? You who are railroad minded will recall that this was the unsuccess ful plan of some individuals not so many months or years ago.

The deceased was 70 years of age. i Mr. Davis was one of Harkers Island's most widely known citi- zers. He was the owner ot con- ' I side-able property here and was also an operator for many years , of a flourishing store business, ' di a'ing in general merchandise.!

I Desperate Adventure At The Seabreeze On Monday and Tuesday the Desperate Adventure" starring Ramond Navarro, Maiian Marsh, Eric Blare, and introducing lovely Margaret Tallichet. This is a live ly Trans-Atlantic romance of mis taken identies. In addition to the feature you will see a "Crime Does Not Pay" i subject. This popular series of short subjects is becoming very popular oil over the world. On Wednesday (Ro-le-o) you will be priviledged to see a re-issue of one of the best pictures made in the past three years. "It Happened One Night" with Clarke Gable and Claudette Colbert. "The Toy Wife", a colorful .ro mance of the Old South, will be presented on Thursday only. The cast includes Louise Rainer, Mel vyn Douglas and Robert Young. After several months absence from the screen, Gene Autry (Cowboy Star No. 1) is again thrilling the hearts of young and old. Watch this paper for the Sea Breeze play date of his latest picture "Gold Mine la The Sky." ROGERS-ASTAIRE IN "CAREFREE" STARTS SUNDAY Opening For 3-Day Run At Beaufort Theatre Sun. "Carefree" featuring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers and their dancing Irving Ber lin's catchiest song hits, opens at The Beaufort Thea tre on Sunday for a 3-day run. The film, one of the most publicized productions of recent weeks, reunites the team of As taire and Rogers, who have been separated for nearly two years. Incidentally is the second 3-day run that that Manager Bob Lang has presented in less than a month at The Beaufort Theatre. Brightly modern in treatment, the picture the triangular romance popular actress, a d theme and deals with between a stinguished psychiatrist and a sue year. Astaire portiay cal man and Ralph lie cessful law s the medi llamy is the attorney, whose uncert ain love af- fair with Miss Rogers call on Astaires for h eads him to lp. From this innocent beginning stems the joyous complications of the story. Fred , gives Ginger a course of treatment which leads her to fall in love with him instead of Bellamy, and which involves her in a series of wild escapades which hit new highs in the annals of Astaire-Rogers hilarity. Like all pictures this famous team have made, Carefree sparkles with charming melodies and arresting dances. A number of the very latest in songs by Irvin Berlin, whose tuneful melodies in Alex ander's Ragtime Band, intringued theatre goers here a few weeks ago, help to put the picture across in a big woy. With Fred Astaire In "Carefree" PRETTY GINGER Rogers is re-united with Fred Astaire in "Carefree" which opens for a three day run at Tha Beaufort Theatre Sunday. The dancing of this pair have made them world famous. WATER FRONT which I hope will eventually be published in .-ume important State (.'ally. 1 believe if the proper people up state, who have to do wiili di aling out bridge building j money, see those photographs they will think more kindly towards the leper.ted requests to connect the island up with the mainland at l.enowille Point. NOW THAT AUTUMN and win-' ter approaches I believe it v. ouM j be a smart idea on the part of the Chamber of Commerce bowlers of Beaufort and the Junior Chamber of Commerce Bowlers of More head City to have another inter city tournament. Nothing has ever brought the younger citizen ship of the two towns together in such fine and sporting way as the tournament at the Idel-Hour last Spring. Plans for another such touiney should be mapped out to start in the near future.
