CAPT. AND MRS. A. W. STYRON CAN
NOW MAKE THEIR HOME ON HIGHWAYS
Pictured here it the trailer home of Capt. A. W. Styron, retired j
cottguardman of Cedar I.land and hii wife, Mn. Styron. At prei
ent time their trailer is located in Lenoxville community near Beau
fort where both have a number of relatiyei. Recently they spent
several weeks on Harkert Island, renewinj old friendships which they
both knew when Capt. Styron (pictured at right) was stationed at
Cape Lookout Coast Cuard Station. Later they will probably go
South to Florida like they did last winter. Capt. Styron was retired
from Coast Guard service a few years ago when he was in charge of
Ocracoke station. In ill health at the time, he did not do what many
retired service men have done, tit down for the rest of hisjife. In
stead he started moving around and his health improved. Today he
is the picture of health. The Styrons have a beautiful home on Ce
dar Island in Lola community. (Eubanks-News Photo)

Pond Is Stocked
Finishing touches are being
made on the U. S. Bureau of Fish
eries Mullet Pond located just
west of the driveway leading from
Route 70 to Piver's Island. Al
ready hundreds of mullets have
been released in the pond for ex
perimental purposes. The pond
was built with federal funds for
the purpose of determining if mul
lets and other fish can be success
fully "farmed" for market or
propagation purposes in America.
Similar "fish farms" in the Philli
pines, Hawaiian Island. Japan and
France have proved successful and
profitable to owners. By "farm

Although millions of men

the total for 1937, it was sta

persons engaged in the in-

So far this year the total catch
would probably run to 70,000,000
fish, possibly 75,000,000 including
the summer catches, but in 1937
approximately 100,000,000 fish
were taken. But so far this sea

THE KING'S PET
QUAIL IS DEAD
The pel quail of Mr. and Mrs.
King out at Pinner's Point is dead.
It was the most publicized quail in
the State a few weeks ago when
. -.wsman discovered that for
some reason or other the bird ap
parently thought it was just anoth
er chicken. During the late sum
mer it had become a member of
Mrs. King's chicken flock. It ate
with them and even went in the
chicken house each night to roost
with the chickens. But the oth
er morning when Mrs. King went
out to feed her chickens she saw
her net. badly mangled and partly
eaten laying in the chicken lot.
Mr. King believes a weasel, a mink
or aa oppossum killed the pet.
