Thursday, Nov. 9th, 1939. case to solve is one in which a sleeping person in a tent is slain with buckshot from a gun in the hands of some un known assailant. This lat ter killing happened in the Stella woods in a very lone ly section. Companion of the slain man lost precious minutes and even hours in getting word of the shooting to authorities. This case too, one of the most baffling to occur in Carteret County because no motive or no clues were available, was cold before officers got on the trail. But the case is not closed and before many days the killer may be apprehen ded. It is always difficult to capture killers. HARLOWE It Is Difficult To Catch Killers It is difficult to catch kil lers. During the past tew days there have been two killings, brutal killings in Carteret County which are yet unsolved. It is one thing to stay here in Beautort and say: "They ought to be caught", but Quite another thing to actually go out and find the killers. When such killings occur in thick ly populated areas the de fendants can usually be ap prehended quickly but when a person is run down and killed at night by a hit and run driver on a lonely highway without nearby tel ephone lacilities to notify authorities and without pas sing traffic to get word to officers, the case is already getting cold before the hunt begins. State Highway pa tralmen have followed doz ens of clues and driven hun dreds of miles in an effort to solve the hit and run drive case on Route 24 in the vicini ty of Broad Creek a few nights ago. So far they have not apprehended the fillerbut never wdrry- they have not given up. A hit run case is never closed until the killerls apprehend ed. Such cases have been solved weeks and even months after they occurred. An even more difficult Mrs. R. R. King of Bachelor ac companied by Mrs. A. B.

To the Editor: Please forgive an ordinary poor fellow writing to you about the Hnikers Island bridge. But, even a worm will turn, and I want to tell you that a thousand people on the island are fghting mad at the way they've been treated. May be it is not entrely our own fault that we are behind the times, but we feel that long enough we've been looked upon as pawns in a game played for the benefit of politicians and family relations, and we won't be silent any longer. Maybe we're blind, but honestly we haven't yet seen one good com mon-sense reason given for build ing a bridge from the Island to the straits. Of course, a few carts could come over with a few col lards and watermelons they could n't sell to other folk, and we know that some of our married children could save a few miles when com ing to visit us. Perhaps that's the reason we're being gyped! At any rate as one of the many poor unlettered folk of the Island, I want to register extreme disap pointment and disgust at our be ing kicked around this way. I wonder if our politicians and public-spirited (?) representatives have forgotten that we can also register our disgust when it comes to voting time, and that five hun dred votes might make a lot of difference in an election? Thank you, Mr. Editor for the splendid way you have spoken for us, even tho' at the price of get ting it in the neck from some folk. Yours sincerely, John Jones. Harkers Island, N. C. Nov. 1, 1939. Hearty Approval Of Josh Home To the Editor: It has been my pleasure to read the article "Aycock Brown, the Discoverer" by W. D. Wallace, which appeared in State Magazine and I want you to know that I am hearty approval of all that has been said and it don't say near enough so far as the way I feel about the work that you are doing for the coastal area and the way you are backing us up with the State Advertising effort. Kindest personal regards. Your Sincere friend, Josh Home, Chairman, State Advertising Committee. Rocky Mount, N. C. Nov. 4, 1939. MISS VAUGHAN'S COLUMN 0 The Eighth grade group of Home Economics girls of Beaufort High school have been in the process of constructing aprons to be used for laboratory work in the classroom. They chose their own materials and patterns and each made out her own plan of work which she followed closely. In connection with this the girls learned how to use sewing ma chines both new and old models. They learned how to thread and manipulate all types even those which seemingly thread backwards. The aprons represent awide as sortment of colors and patterns some with ruffles and pockets, some with binding and sashes; some checked; some gathered and some perfectly plain, all of them very attractive in appearance.
