Record Cotton Yield
I’rcKluction Placed at 588,000

Weevil Absent
Xorth Carolina’s cotton yield,
estimated at 342 pounds, equals
:he record per acre yield produced
n 1911. Boll wee\il damage has
oeen almost negligible to date ac-
’ording to the Federal-State Crop
Reporting Swvice of the Depart.
Tient of Agriculture. Weevil dam-
ige to date was reported as low-
?r than for any year since 1922
when weevils became a menace to
:he crop in this state. The severe
•Vinter and hot. dry weather have
ilmost completely held weevils in
:heck so far this season.
Production for the state was
)laced at ,'i88.000 bales for 1940,
compared with last year’s crop
of 457,000 bales. The crop this
year is expected to he 29 percent
nore than 1939 and 52 percent
above the short crop produced in
1938 but it is 11 percent less than
the 10-year (1929-38) average.

BEAUTIFUL TECHNICOLOR!
Occasionally a film critic labels a
screen production as "fine for the
carriage trade,” meaning that it will
appeal particularly to the patrons
who can appreciate and relish a high
class production which might go
slightly "over the heads” of what
is known as ‘‘the masses," and "Pride
and Prejudice,” the attraction at
Finehurst Sunday niglil, August
18th, at 8:30 and at Southern Pines
Monday and Tuesday, Augut 19, 20,
has been so described, which should
make it most desirable for our com
munity.
From the best-selling novel of Jane
Austin and the Broadway hit of the
same name, has been fashioned foi
the screen an altogether delightful
and moving romantic comedy of a
mother with five marriageable daugh.
ters who was' called upon to plot,
scheme, and carry on intrigue to see
her offspring safely launched on the
sea of matrimony.
For the prospective audience of
myiions who have read and re-read
Jane Austin’s tale of a lover too
proud of his family and a girl pre
judiced against class discrimination,
there has been added the attractive
lure of big marquee names. Mary Bo-
: land, as the mothei, might well he
proud of her brood which includes
! Greer Garson, Maureen O'Sullivan,
Ann Rutherford, Heather Angel and
. Mar.sha Hunt. Laurence Olivier is in
f the male lead and the supporting cast
has such distinguished names as
Edna May Oliver, Frieda Inescourt.
Edmund Gwenn, Karen Morley and
many others.
i And then on Thursday, Friday
I and Saturday, August 15, 16, 17. with
I a Saturday matinee, comes another
truly "laugh riot.” in "I Love You
I Again.” that will go over wtih a
bang with any audience looking for
diversion, something that will make
them forget these ttoublod times. It’s
a picture with the kind of entertain
ment that made "The Thin Man” so
popular and with the .same starring
duo, William Powell and M.vrna Lo.v.
It is strictly comedy screen fare, of
the broad variety, with laughs, com-
I ing thick and ‘'-..st. some of them so
I If lid the.v drown out the dialogue.
I Both Powell and Miss Loy give ♦heir
I u.Kual fine performances, the kind
that made them big selling names
' and Frank McHugh’s characteriza
tion is tops.
I A preview night audience at the
Village Theatre, Westwood. Cal., a
situation remote enough from Hol
lywood not to partake of the lat-
ter’s publicized idiosyncracies, found
thi'i William Powell-Myrna Loy ve
hicle tremendously to their liking,
and evinced the fact with continuous
laughter and applause.

snail's pace and keeping your eyes
on the white line in the centei of the
road were you able to proceed at all.
It was nearly 6:00 a. m, when we
leached Conway.
"We were ahead of the main body
of refugees, apparently, for we were
able to get looms In a hotel, a good
hotel, the Grace, where Proprietor
K. V. Kirton couldn't do enough for
iis. We soon had the two childrai in
our party, aged six and eight, back
to sleep after the most exciting ex
perience of their lifetiiup.s, and it
didn't take the grown-ups long to
follow.
Big I>ay In Conway
“The wind howled all day Sunday.
Conway experienced the biggest day
In Its history. The warning had gone
out all along the line from Charles
ton to Wilmington for people to
iFave the beaches, and there was a
steady stream of automobiles for
hours passing through' Conway head
ed for the inland. Filling stations,
re.'^taurants, boarding houses, every
thing that was open on Sunday was
busy caring for the hordes. The Hotel
Grace fillled up in no time. I
“We kept getting reports all day
that the worst was .vet to come along
the coast. People were warned not
to attempt to return to the beaches,
so we spent Sunday night in Con
way. Monday morning we learned by
telephone that the storm was spent,
that it would op .s.ife to return. We
leacher I’aw'.e.v’s before lunohtime,
to find to out- .surpri.sc that compara
tively little S'tmage had been clone.
The i.sland had been prett.v well un
der water, one bridge damaged, sand
and debris had been wasRed ag.'diist
and into cottages nearest the beach,
a few roofs torn off, and the island
l educed in width by some ten feet,
tut nothing very serious happened.
Shovels and brooms lemoved the ac
cumulation of sand from our porches
and the bedrooms in which windows
had been left open, and there was
still ice in the refrigerator so we
hadn't lost the chickens we'd bought
for Sunday dinner. We had Sunday
dinner Monday.
“One of the first things we in
quired about upon our return was
whether anyone had stayed on the
island through it all. We found that
two yoimg men who have a store.
Green’s Grocery, had stuck it out.
We learned they are .students in Yale
Divinity School.”
A large number from the Sandhills
shared in the excitement of the hur
ricane. At Pawley's were Mr. and
Mrs. E. T, McKeiJhen of AVrdetn,
Mr. and Mr^. George E. London, Mr.
and Mrs. Frank McCluer and daugh
ter Jane. Mr. and Mrs. Alan Innes-
Taylor, Mr. and Mrs. John Weld, and
Mr. and Mrs. Hj^e and son Timmy,
of Southern Pines, and Mr. and Mrs.
W. A. Leland McKeithen of Pine
hurst. At Myrtle Beach, which suf
fered less than Pawley's, were Mrs.
William Chase Mudgett and Mr. and
Mrs. Fred C. Page of Southern Pines,
and Mr. and Mrs. Richard Lovering
of Jackson Springs: also Mrs. Emily
Wilson and her daughter. Emily Mae
and G. R. Chatfield of Southern
Pines. Miss Ellen Maurice of Eagle
Springs owns a cottage at Pawley’s
Island, but had left before the hurrl-
case. The cottage was not damaged.
On another Island, Folly Beach,
near Charleston, evacuated during
the storm, were Mr. and Mrs. John
Leland and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Wil
der of Charleston. Mrs. Leland is
the former Emily Richardson of
Southern Pines. Mr. Wilder the son
of Mr, and Mrs. T. B. Wilder of
Aberdeen. They were able to reach
the mainland and nafety.
