I 1 PAGE TWO Hanes Co. Uses New Advertising This season marks the 29th con secutive year of newspaper adver tising by the P. H. Hanes Knitting Company of Winston-Salem. North Carolina manufacturers of un derwear for men and boys. 878 leading newspapers are being used, including The Beaufort News. For years, Hanes has uted the laigest newspaper advertising cam paign in the underwear field. Hanes has always felt that news paper advertising is the retailer's bist medium. It reaches custom ers and prospects . directly and quickly. It brings sales into the store on the same day thac the ad vertisement appears. The Hanes Crotch-Guard Sports jnd Sho'-'s which have proved so popular with men and boys every where are being particularly fea tured. These have the comfort able Hanesknit Crotch-Guard which gives gentle athletic support with the convenience of a butioti less vent. Smart new patterns in Hanes broadcloth Shorts as well as Hanes Samson-bak Union-suits and Hanes Shoulder-button Union suits are also among the garments offered in the new line. 1 The advertisements, themselves, are breezy in tone. Such head lines as "For 8 A. M. Athletes" and "Plenty of Wear In This Under wear" supported by humorous ll lustrations, capture the attention and invite reading of te advertise nunt. The enthusiasm on the part of Hanes Merchants for this adver tiseing is shown by the number who make use of small, inexpen sive tie-in advertisments of their own. Last year, for instance, 27,841 of these dealer advertise ments were used. Placed on thi same page as the larger Hanes ad. vtrtisement, these little advertise ments direct readers to their near est store. Dealers report that they have brought sales not only of Hanes Underwear but also of shirts, ties and other items. The advertising department of The Beaufort News has a number of these attractive small-space ad vertisements, available with free nats. A telephone call will bring our representative. He will b '-S'lad to show you these advertise ments, tell you what they have ..lone for other Hanes merchants in this territory, and give you th? very modest figures on their cost. BEAUFORT SCHOOL NEWS In the triangular debates, which were held Thursday, Ma;ch 27, the Beaufort debaters were win ners for the second consecutive year. Betty Rumley and Carrie Lee Jones upheld the affirmative at Newport against Marilyn Bai ley and Virginia Webb of More head City, who spoke on the nega tive side of the query, whila Merrv Johnson and Edna Avery defended the -negative at Morehead City against Harvey Garner and Jame.s Murdoch, Newport's affirmative speakers. At Beaufort, More head's affirmative, Albert Piner and Dot Jones met Newpoit's neg ative team consisting of Leon Mann, Jr., and Bernard Quinn. The Newport team was judged the winner in this last contest. This team is th esame, with one exception, that made such a splen did record last year. Cairie Lee Jones is debating on the team for the first time. She was judged al ternate last year. It will be re called that all members of last year's debating team made a name for themselves by reaching tnc semi-finals at Chapel Hill. The final event this year takes place at Chapel Hill April 17-19, and it is believed that the debaters this ye?r do equally as well. The query this year is: "Resolved: That the United States should adopt a policy 'f requiring one year of military training for all able bodied young men before they reach the age of twenty-three." Last Friday, March 28, the Beau fort Glee Club went to Greenville to enter the District Contest. The Glee Club under the direction of Miss Helen Barney sang a difficult Latin Response. They competed against such large schools as Greenville, New Bern, and Roan oke Rapids. When the judges de cision wag announced Beaufoit was awarded a rating of cne plug which exceeded even the rating of New Bern and Greenville ho for years have been winning in the state contests. Due to the large number of glee clubs, there will be no Greensboro contest for Glee Clubs and the decisions of this District Contest were final. The Glee Club was asked to give their number aeain that night on a pro gram which was broadcasted. This program was made up cf care fully selected numbers from those offered that morning. Miss Barney and her Glee Club members are to be highly com mended for their splendid per formance and high rating which surely brought much hono to the school. SUBSCRIBE TO THE BEAU FORT NEWS.

An increase of 18 per cent in the number of eggs produced by North Carolina in January and February com pared with the same period last year was reported today by T. L. Stuart, junior statistician of the State Department of Agriculture. North Carolina's total egg pro duction for the past two months, based on U. S. Agricultural Mar keting Service reports, totaled 98,000,000 compared with 73,000. 000 for the corresponding period in 1940. February egg production, to taling 57,000,000 was up 12 per cent compared with the same month last year and 39 per cent above the January production of 41.000.000.-5 Stuart reported the per-bird-production of eggs during the past month was 8.6 per hen. "North Carolina was the only South Atlantic State showing an increase in the number of iavers on hand during February as compared with the number on hand during the same month in 1940," Stuart THE POCECETBOOK KNOWLEDGE INCB 19-53. U.S. MANUFACTURERS MAvB PAID OUT added. "Layers reported last month totaled 6,626,000, or three per cent above the 6,448,000 re ported for February of 1940. "An estimated 20,678,000 chic kens were raised on North Caroli na farms last year, or ten per cent less than in 1939. The State ranks second in chicken production among the South Atlantic States, with Virginia ranking first." For the Nation, February egg production totaled 3,281 million, setting a new February record, while the egg production per bird totaled 10.33, also a new record for the month. The number of layers on farms in the Nation was three per cent under the Fobruar record last year and two per cent below average. FARM "CLEANUP WEEK" Is Suggested By Vet A "Farm Cleanup Week" dur ing these early days in April is suggested by Dr. C. D. Grinnells, State College veterinarian. "We should set our goal," he Raid, "at a 20 per cent reduction in livestock losses by cleaning and disinfect ing barns and farm lots." The veterinarian says that at least one-fifth of today's annual loss of baby pigs, calves and other livestock could be saved if every farmer would join in this effort. Old barnyards and dirty livestock quarters harbor millions of germs of livestock diseases such as cholera, enteritis, erysipelas, and other fatal livestock plagues. These germs are passed from one generation of livestock to another until quarters are properly clean ed. Dr. Grinnells says that the American Foundation for Animal Health is sponsoring a nation-wide "Farm Cleanup" campaign. A mong the major oobjectives are: Clean and disinfect all buildings used by livestock; fence or fill old mudholes and wollows; burn oid -.traw stacks; board up holes and burrows beneath buildings; fence off manure piles, which are major sources of parasites infection; scrub feed boxes and poultry roosts with hot lye water; eradicate UV Vll i'l-.tV4 AM "IROH LUNG " p TT if ilL llf)U51 AS NEEDED IN M . v?lJ .Ow csFi ase.

MORE ABOUT CAMP DAVIS (Continued lrom page 1) T ervation is now more than 65 per cent completed and ready for move ment of troops which will be sta tioned here. This first movement a complement of 250 officers and men is scheduled for arrival on April 10. to be followed by 500 ad ditional troops on April 14. Preliminary to the reception of i, ee : troops, a large group oi oiums are now receiving certain scnooi- ing in Wilmington, N. C, under the supervision of Colonel James B. Crawford, commanding officer of Camp , Davis. These oilicers will be detailed to duty at the new Army post within the next few weeks. Camp Davis will base more than 20,000 officeis and men when completed, or by early summer. The collosal task of. completing this modern Anti-Aircraft Firing Center, a housing jroject consist ing of necessary facilities for taking care of six white and two Negro regiments, plus the neces sary HQ area, Service Command sections and every utility required of an up-to-date city of more than 20,000 persons, including an 800 bed hospital with complete labora tories, clinics, and operating rooms huge power sub-stations, a gigan tic disposal plant, warehouse, cold storage plants, ordinance shop and warehouses, laundry and 40 miles of paved streets is being accomplished by the contracting firms of Grannis, Higgins, Thomp son and McDevitt Company, of Charlotte, N. C, whose every move is under the direction of Capt. Karl II. Pettee, Construct ing Quartermaster and his staff of officers. This Project Relieved Economic Conditions Never in the history of Eastern North Carolina has any construc tion project created a bhjger dt mand for skilled and unskilled la bor. The result is that general economic conditions have 'ieen re lieved more, since the building of Camp Davis began, than any other project ever built on the coast It is interesting to note that nearly 100 per cent of the employees on this Firing Center project are na tives of North Carolina or Eastern North Carolina. Due to lack ol housing facilities in the general vicinity of Holly Ridge, it iias beer, necessary for workmen in some in stances to commute from as fat away as 100 miles to their jobs here each day but this has not lessened the morale of workmen, who seem pleased with the oppor tunity for the employment that Camp Davis has provided. It :s also interesting to note that of the few hundred of workmen who livt: in temporary quarters in t!ie vicin ity of Holly Ridge, that a great number from coastal fishing towns are living aboard their boats, moor ed on nearby Topsail Sound. This is perhaps the only defense project in the nation where the temporary housing facilities have been of a nautical type. Much Native Material Used In Construction Much of the material used in the construction of Camp Davi3 which will include more than 1,000 buildings necessary for a modern Army post of this kind, has come from North Carolina. This was particularly true of the 40,000,000 feet of lumber being used, South ern pine, from Eastern Carolina forests, excepting certain structu ral timbers of Fir, approximately 250,000 feet from the West Coast. To build the asphalt street, over 200,000 tons of native sanJ being obtained from a location near the reservation is being used. To provide the foundations of buildings, 25,000 tons of Waynn County, N. C. sand and 35,000 tons of Anson County gravel is be ing used. Also necessary for the foundations has been 166,500 square feet of reinforcement mesh and 50,000 barrels of cement, pur chased mostly through North Car olina distributors. The largest galvanized nail or. der in the history of the country was required for Camp Davis con struction. This order totaied ap proximately 16,000 kegs. To meet Government specifications, galvanized nails were required, due to the nearness of this project to the ocean, and the sit atmosphere resulting therefrom. Some of the other materials be ing used on this project include approximately 3,200,000 square feet of gypsum wallboard; 36,500 rolls of tile read, Federal inspect ed mineral surface roofing; nearly 20,000 gallons of cream and gray paint and 8,000 gallons of alumi num paint used as priming coat or base. The disposal plant, nearly read.' for operation will have a process ing capacity of 2,000,000 gallon? daily, and the incinerator, "located away from the base proper, on the leeward side of Camp Davis will have facilities which would take care of a city of 40,000 persons. Two of the four water tanks, one with a capacity of 50,000 gal lons, the other of 100,000 gallons, have been completed and under construction is the third tark which will have a capacity of 300,000 gallons. A fourth tank will have a capacity of a half million gallons. Water will be secured from 14 deep wells, equipped with pumps which have a capacity of 200 gal Ions per minute each.
