Down By The Sea (Continued from page two) the men were trying to do an hon est hour’s work. It took one man a full minute to load and unload a shovelful of sand. We saw another who got a dime or more for taking off his shoe and unloading a spoon ful of sand. The Surf and The Beach Many think the ocean along makes the twin towns of interest and importance. Just back of the shore are rich lands when drained. And much of the truck consumed is produced on these farms reclaimed from swamps almost sealevel. But the sea after all is the chief at traction. On the beach is a large hotel, dancing pavilion and a great many cottages. A dozen or more beautiful homes have been built this season. Sunday afternoon there were a thousand people in the water riding the surf or on the beach under umbrellas and in the sun. Many of them were so tanned that one could almost imagine him self in the Phillipine Isles. And there was every variety of people there. In the surf all looked alike, but standing at the end of the bridge across the sound and watch ing the cars go by it was different. “Liquor Control” We lived in Morehead City twen ty-five years ago. In twenty-four hours we saw more evidence of its publicity and plentifulness than in a month years ago. On Saturday night we saw a drunken man being carried up the main street by two others. Mrs. C. M. Wade got out of the car to enter a store and an other drunk man came very neat knocking her down, and then came to a stop against the bumper on our car. Sunday afternoon a crowd of men on the board walk were having one of the times of their lives with a quart or two of liquor and glasses. And they did not seem to care who saw them. And yet we have liquor control by the great old state of North Carolina The Big Port Everybody around the twin towns of Morehead and Beaufort believes the proposed port terminal will make of them a great city and help to relieve them of the tremen dous taxes that were incurred in putting on ‘city airs”. And we be lieve it will mean much though not quite what they expect. It now seems assured, but an interpreta tion of the Constitution or a new arrangement of three letters of the alphabet into another department of relief employment may upset the whole proposition. Bogue Sound Melons And this is the dessert of this story. Bogue sound melons are said to be among the largest and best grown in the world, that is. the coastal folks say so. We bought six for a dollar at the roadside near Newport that would weigh more than 5b pounds apiece. And they were good, just like the Lord made the first ones, “very good.” Dr. McDonald Just Will Not Stay Down i Dr. Ralph M< Donald, the For syth educator-legislator, leader of the ariti sales tux and school teach er blocs in the last session, is be coming a real tlvm in the desh of state officials. He just won’t keep quiet. Commenting last week on the report that the state has a surplus of 8712,2515, he says that during the legislature he and his group predicted such ? surplus, while 'he budget bureau declared that the surplus-would not exceed s2(>o,Joo.
