DOWN EAST WITH BILLY ARTHUR * * v- v I m terribly sorry for what .lone to Harvey Bone v. Over at Coleman's they won't give him any extra biscuits and honey any more. Seems as if they read my disclosure of Harvey's racket. Anyway. I'm told he went in there the other day and did manage to wangle an extra bis cuit out of one of the waitresses, who was not then on to Harvey's doings, but was later wised up. and gave him a snappy comeback. "Where's my honey?" Harvey asked. "She works on the other shift." the gal replied. £A1cx (Hoc) Smith was telling Junebug Stallings—the one man band—about the pension plan the other day. and June told Doc: "1 don't want any pension as long as I'm able to do a day's work." » ^ Last Saturday, the 170th Birth day of the Marine Corps, was a gala one at Camp Le.jeune, but one chowhound sized it up this way: "It was all right." he said. "Only we didn't have any turkey. Last year on Saipan. we got turkey. Now that the war's over and we're home, we got hamburger." 0 You'll have to get somebody else to tell you why they're calling Valejitine McCabe of the USO "Stinky". # Note to readers: The News and Views does not print anonymous letters. They must be signed. #The other night A1 Taylor, al though he was doing it facetiously, reminded us of days gone by in Jacksonville when the merchants used to stand in front of the stores and invite folks in. A1 was saying that Armistice Day had not been so good for business, that he didn't have much to do. and about that time Carroll Bryan passed by and spoke. "Can't I honk you for something tonight. Carroll?" A1 asked quickly. 0 Julius Segerman of Holly Ridge was all excited the other night about having caught a fish—six of them, he claimed. "Six mullet!" Julius exclaimed. "Six mullet", we questioned, "on a hook and line?" "Sure!" Julius declared. "They were Virginia mullet." 0This ought to be in the society column: Sam Munch of Midway P-irk vi sited Mr. and Mrs. C. V. Cheney "'"•dncsday evening. | nder why Sam Leder was so ease with a box of pop corn other night in the show? The lights were on between shows when Sam entered, and he tried to conceal the box between his knees until the lights went out. But he couldn't resist taking a nib ble now and then, and the way he went after it reminded those who saw him of the little fellow who chews gum in school when he had n't ought a. 0 There are a lot of reasons a husband won't permit another man to speak to his wife over the tele phone. but Deane Taylor came up with a new -and probably valid— one the other evening. I wanted to speak to Mrs. Taylor. "I don't know whether I want you to speak to her or not," Deane replied. "Why?" I asked. "If L call her to the telephone," said he. "I'll have to go in the kitchen and finish drying the dishes." 0 Lifting a couple of good ones from the Camp Lejeune Globe: The aggressive wife of a meek little man was taking her husband to task. While she was raving at him for his utter stupidity, the doorbell rang and some friends came to make a call. The little husband sat in dejected silence and listened to his wife and the friends talk. Suddenly, during a lull in the conversation, his wife glared across at him and shouted: "And don't sit there making fists at me in your pockets, either." Patient (recovering from opera tion): "Why are all the blinds drawn, Doctor?" Doctor: "Well there's a fire across the street, and I didn't want you to wake up and think the operation was a failure." Jack: "I hear you advertised for a wife. How'd you make out?" Bill: "1 got hundreds of replies." Jack: "What did they say?" Bill: "They all said 'You can have mine'!" SCARLET FEVER REMEDY % Chicago — (/P> — A successful, seven-day treatment of scarlet fever with penicillin was reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

N. C., IKIISU. MBi.K 16. 1915 mi:mi;i:h of the associated press [.R[fjK "ER COPY $2.00 PER YEAH John D. Warlick Elected Hospital Board President 0John D. Wai'li.ck, prominent Onslow County citizen an i attor ney, Wednesday was o lee ted presi dent of the board of trustees of t!ie Onslow County Hospital. Inc.. at the November meeting. H. I.. Humphrey of Verona yas elected vice-president of vhe board to succeed Warlick. who was ele vated to the presidency. Wa 1'ck succeeds as President Mari >n \. Cowell. who resigned four months ago on account of his health. The election of a secretary and treasurer to succeed Rev. V De Leon Gray, who has been a mem ber of the board since its incor poration and who esigned a month ago because of his removal "rom the local Methodist pastorate, was deferred until after the December meeting of the board. Williams Is Praised In December the terms of three members of the board—H. T.. Wil liams. Sr.. of Swansboro and II. A. Rags dale of Richlands—expire, and their offices will have to be filled. Williams, who has also been a member of the board since its creation, said this week he felt his age and • health would preclude further active participation on the board. Warlick and members of the board praised his value to the hospital directorate. Gray's resignation was accepted ••reluctantly and with regret" at a recent meeting of the board, and on Wednesday his service as trea surer and acting manager during a four-month period early this year was cited again as one of the many reasons-he, as a man, was a splendid citizen of the community during his four years as pastor of Trinity Methodist church here. Burma Road, Vital In Wartime, Will Be Abandoned In Peace O Bombay • -i/P)— Announcement bv U. S. Army Headquarters in New Delhi that the new Burma Roac! is being abandoned reveals that the route is now worthless as a commercial highway and is not likely to be kept open by the Brit ish. To them, the road could only look like an avenue for Chinese infiltration into North Burma and the British have made it clear for decades that they want none of that. Probably for the next dozen years. Chinese traders with pack horse trains will carry their small wares into northeast India over the winding road while >ts thou sands of miles of pipeline will, in all probability, run into nothing ness. Then, probably, the jungle will move in and the road will be swal lowed. Like an old Roman road, it will be remembered only because small patches of it continue in use. As early as the autumn of 1942. when the road was mainly Gen. Stilwell's dream, there arose a controversy between the British and the Americans and among high ranking officers in the Amer ican Army as to whether ;he '-oad was worthwhile as a military effort. Gen. Chennault ooposed il rrom the beginning. He declared in pri vate that the effort spent on the road should be used to bring more supplies over the Hump air route for his famous 14th Air Force in China. The British in their turn tried to convince St il well that energy should not be v.ns'ed on the road, be put instead behind British efforts to retake Burma.
