mittee.
Activities in all parts of the State
have impressed Mr. Pickard with the
fact that the local units are doing
much to make North Carolina a more
attractive State for tourists to visit!
Dawn east the Beaufort county hos
pitality committee is working in close
cooperation with a similar group in
Hyde to work out an attractive hos
pitality program for the thousands of
hunters and fishermen \who visit
North Carolina’s largest lake—Matta
muskeet —every year.
These two groups have also joined
HENDERSON, (N. C.) DAILY DISPATCH TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1938
in promotion of travel to Ocracoke
Island, because one of the most direct
ways to get to this Island is United
States Highway 264, which runs from
Raleigh through Wilson, Greenville,
Washington and Belhaven into Swan
Quarter, where a ferry operates to
Ocracoke.
Chairman of the Washington com
mittee is Edwin Harding, of Washing
ton, and he and his associates are do
ing fine work, says Mr. Pickard.
Within the past few days the Wash
ington Chamber of Commerce has giv
en the Beaufort county committee its
approval, and the trade body’s board
of directors have announced they will
act as an advisory group to Mr. Hard
ing and his associates. Mr. Pickard
points out that this makes every mem
ber of the Washington Chamber of
Commerce an dex-officio member of
the hospitality committee.
The Lenoir county unit, headed by
J. F. Parrott, Jr., is also beginning to
get busy, Mr. Pickard said, and has
enlisted the assistance of the Kinston
Junior Chamber of Commerce.

declared today.

eggs going into surplus stocks. Ob
jectives are the stabilization of the
market, the increased consumption of
eggis, and the development of new
uses for eggs.
TO A PAL.
Old Pal, it makes me blue tonight
When old days I recall—
Roaming around over the hills
Close to a waterfall.
As hand in hand, you and I
Sought the common things
Os earth hnd air and field and sky
That made our hearts to sing.
Now we’re many long miles apart
And different pathways trod;
But both remember the long past dav
We toured o’er friendly sod.
