EGGS REACH HIGH RECORD
WHEN HENS GO AVIATING
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 27. .
A new high record for eggs has been
et. :,:'.."-''v:'':' -; '?,;,..
Air service pilots oh a flight from
France Field, Canal Zone, to Santi
ago, a distance of 145 miles, dis
covered that chickens could be pur
chased in Santiago at less than one
half the price prevailing in the Canal
Zone,
' Accordingly, each pilot bought a
number of chickens and took them
back in the plane with him.
On the return trip' a conscientious
hen in each of the planes,' evidently
endeavoring in their own way to Te
pay the pilot for the Joy ride, laid an
egg. : "
Aa the route involves a flight over
the j mountains, it is believed that
these are the highest eggs that have
ever been in America.
BUS ESS
To Residents of New
i ? Bern And Others
My attention has' been called by the
Rector and membership of Christ
Episcopal Church , In this city, to the
bad condition that their church lot, at
the : corner -of Middle and , Pollock
streets,' is most, always In on account
of - passers-by being1 so 'careless as
to throw -' trash and old paper and
such like over In the church lot, or
throwing It in the streets and the wind
blows - it over' in , the church lot. It
costs these church people a great deal
to keep their lot clean- they have to
keep a man'1 working at cleaning it up
all thet time. This should not be so,
and it must be stopped. I ask the co
operation of the citizens of New Bern
to help me make this a clean city, and
I would be glad to have them do so.-
There is a law against throwing trash
and v paper on the streets, and also a
law to make a man keep his own lot
clean; and therefore if he must keep hi.-)
own lot clean, he must .not throw trash
on his neighbor's lot.
Now, if the people will not obey this
law of their own accord, I'shall be com
pelled, to enforce the law and give the
violators of Jt the full penalty of the
law. I hope this message to the people
will put a stop to the condition com
plained of by these church people.
