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."

#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."

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'!"

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.
