A LETTER IT TOOK A
WEEK TO WRITE
"Morale is a lot of little
things," says a current ad,
showing a boy in khaki sit
ting on his bunk out in Shan
gri La reading a letter. "Bill
is reading that letter again,'
it says. "Want to know what
is in it?, - Well 'Katie had
her birthday Thursday . . . .
Dad's an air raid warden
now. . . We're going to the
football game tomorrow." .
. . No nioment is so interest
ing to the boys away, so
those who have returned
say, as mail time. Cheerful
letters with home town news
is what they want not one
such as was shown in a re
cent cartoon in which a lad
opened a letter and turned to
his companions in the ser
with, "Mom wants me to
lend her some money so she
can pay her taxes."
If you have time only to
send the very personal fam
ily news, send a years sub
scription to the BEAUFORT
NEWS for Christmas, md
your boy will receive 52 let
ters each one of which it
took a week to write he
will like it too to the last ad
vertisement and "Real Es

conditioning to think a pierc
ing wail rending the air
means only that a harmless
fish boat is passing through
the draw.
DON'T THINK YOU
WON'T BE MISSED!
Have you forgotten some
thing? Forgotten to pay
for the Christmas Seals you
received last week from the
Carteret County Tuberculo
sis Association?
If you did forget, it will be
just right to send the money
now before you let it slip out
of your hands for Christmas
doings. Your money is need
ed more this year than any
year since 1917-
V a r a n d tuberculosis
work closely together. Tu
berculosis will not increase
in 1943 if the association can
help it. So Ave must help the
association.
The Seal Sale is the soh-
support of the association. It
needs our financial, as .veil
as moral, support to carry on
its expanded program thru
out the coming; year.
Don't think your contribu
tion won't be missed! Frac
tically all of the income from
Seals is made up of one and
two dollar contributions. It
takes a lot of small contribu
tions to carry on the year
round work of the associa
tion. So, take two dollars out of
your pocket. Look at them.
What can you do with two
dollars? Plenty, of course.
What can the association
do with your two dollars It
can carry on a year round
fight to save lives in Beaufort
and Carteret County from a
disease that kills more per
sons between 15 and 45 than
any other disease and a dis
ease that is increasing now
due to wartime conditions.
What are you going :o do
with your two life saving
dollars?

To Whom It May Concern:
Being home last weekend cn one
of the rare occasions that 1 am
able to get down to God's country,
I received a shock that I certainly
couldn't understand. Beaufort, be
ing in the center of one of the na
tion's most vital defense areas,
has always seemed to me to be
totally defense-minded. Yet, when
I wandered out to the docks to
watch the menhaden fleet, I was
surprised to see flying from the
stern of every boat in sight a dirty
piece of cloth that was, in every
case, torn and shredded as if it hail
d'.'ne through battle. This piece of
cloth was supposed to represent
the Flag of the United States of
America, a symbol of the ideals
and ways of life for which vc are
all undergoing hardships and fot
which many of our men and boys
are giving their most precious life
blood. It seems to me that some
one has slipped terribly in allow
ing this to go on. It is in direct
violation of the law to disp'ay a
flag in such condition and cei tain
ly is not very patriotic. Too manv
of our boys are giving thei- lives
for something that they consider
sacred to have it so mutilated
within the comparative safoty of
our own shores. 1 suggest that
some responsible citizen of Beau
fort instruct the owners of these
boats on the proper displaying of
the Flag. I am sure that it is mere
ly an oversight on the part of the
owners, but it is such careless
oversights and mistakes that have
lost battles and men their lives.
Sincerely,
Jimmie Alexander.

The daily cost to France of
German occupation would build
2,500 modern workman's honis.
This is the story of an Ameri
can boy and girl and their coura
geous fight, for America, during
the few days before and the day of
the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
There are no "big name" i-tars
in this exceptionally fine 't.ory;
but Donald Barry, Fay MacKcnzic
and Alan Curtis handle their parts
in a way that any top flight st.-n
would be proud of.
The slory is part fiction iiiiii
part truth, with m-ws reel pictures
of the actual bombing beiiv wo
ven into the picture in such a way tf
that when you leave the theatre
you will have but o'ie thought in
your mind, 'Remember Pearl liar
bor." The best way to do this (if
you cannot fight) is to buyMVar
Bonds and Stamps.
Every American; man woman
or child should see 'Remember
Pearl Harbor."

THE OLD JUDGE SAYS..
r
?tyj ' '4- i in P
"I couldn't help overhearing you, Mary,
when you asked Jim here why they let the
liquor companies use sugar to make whiskey
when all the rest of us have to cut down on
it. I happen to know the answer to that
"You see, the fact of the matter is, the
industry never has used a single pound of
sugar to make whiskey. The bootleggers were
the only ones who used sugar to make
whiskey. On top of that, there's not a single
large distillery in the country making whiskey
any more. They're all working day and night
making war alcohol for the government for
gunpowder, synthetic rubber, chemicals, and
medical supplies.
"Just as I told Ed down at the court
house this morning, the government simply
wouldn't be able to get all this alcohol it
needs in time if we didn't have these
distilleries available and on the job."
