(International Soundphoto) State-Wide Observance Of Dogwood Week To Begin On January 27th The first statewide "Dogwood Week" in North Carolina will be sponsored by the Garden Clubs of North Carolina during the week beginning January 27. The purpose of the observance is to promote the planting of dogwood in the State. The dogwood, which is the offi cial flower of North Carolina was designated as such by the General Assembly and is said to flourish in all sections of the state. It is snowy with its white blossoms in the Spring and brilliant with its berries and foliage in the autumn. The State Department of Conser vation and Development is co operating with the Garden Club in sponsoring the event, by supplying seedlings for shipment to those who desire them through the state. Anyone wishing to plant dogwoods may secure them from the depart ment by writing to P. A. Griffiths, Assistant State Forester, Education Building, Raleigh. Governor Gregg Cherry has com mended the Garden Club for spon soring Dogwood Week and has urged all North Carolinians to help in its observance by planting the state flower. He will officially open the week by planting the first tree on the grounds of the state capi tol. One of the most notable plant ings of dogwood in the United States is at Valley Forge in Penn sylvania, where about 50,000 trees have been planted in the National Park. Before the war years ago the city of Atlanta launched a dog wood planting campaign, and now it is known as the Dogwood City because of its thousands of trees. The Garden Club has invited I other organizations and clubs to help in promoting Dogwood Week by planting as many trees as possi ble, and it 'is hoped by the sponsors that the week will become an an nual affair in the state.

MANTEO This small fishing town is readying itself for its re turn to theatrical business next July when "The Lost Colony," Ihe story of the first attempted settle ment of America in 1585, will be resumed after four years of war- imposed inactivity. Sponsored by the Roanoke Island Historical association, of which former Governor J. M. Broughton is president, the Paul Green epic played to almost 500,000 spectators and brought an estimated $3,000, 000 in total revenue to Dare county and the Island of Roanoke in the five years it was performed before war called a halt after the 1941 season. The company of 200 will perform in a new theater seating about 4,000 which is now being built on the exact spot where Sir Walter Raleigh's colonists landed in 1587. A new, spectacular stage, which will permit use of the sea as part of the production's props, has been devised by Architect Albert Bell. Tracing the story of the colonists from the time of their landing through the birth of Virginia Dare, first child of English parentage born in the new world, the pageant closes with the group marching off into the darkness and into mystery. The opus was written by Green in 1936 to commemorate the 350th anniversary of the first English at tempt to settle America.
