tto Waterside Theatre, where Paul

mer will observe its 10th uiniver
sary?are being' made on the sooth
sod of earth fbrtlfteatkms thrown
up By the colonists hi what7 might
have been their unequal fight with
unfriendly Indians.
Kelvin R. Daniels of Manteo,
vice-chairman of the Roanoke Island
Historical Association, inaugurated
the' sUidy by turning up the first
Spade of dirt in an area deeignated
by J. C. Harrington, regional archae
dogist -for the Park Service.
"Our object in this work," Har
ingtofn told thp delegation, Is to
luthenticate the site of the fortifi
cations and determine the nature of
the settlement that surrounded, them.
We want to know where the colo
nists built their cabins, whether
close to the fortifications or rather
widely Scattered, and something of
the fortifications themselves?wheth
er they were earthen breastworks
alone, or consisted of a log block
house or something of the kind."
In the area of the present study
there remain shallow trenches and
low mounds, mute evidence of a
long-ago struggle for wdstenoe in a
wild, new country. The outline of
the fortifications was marked with
stones in 1866 by Talcott Williams,
who made a survey of the area for
the newly formed Roanoke Colony
[ Memorial Association, the predeces
sor of the Roanoke Island Historical
Association. These stone markers
remain around the monument placed
at the site in 1896 to commemorate
the birth of Virginia Dare, the first
English child born in the New
World.
Williams reported that the trench
around the fort averaged 10 inches
in depth and the mounds one foot
and three inches in height at their
eresta. He marked each single, of the
fortifications with a stone, making,
4 star-like outline. The Roanoke Is
land Historical Commission, with
WPA assistance, constructed a pali
sade at the site in 1936, approxima
ting the outline of the trenches and
mounds. This, with the stockade
j near the Virginia 'Dare monument,
has been rettoved.

THE CITY COUSIN
"What about this rat control cam
paign you had down here in .Gates
county a couple of weeks ago " I
askd John Arts, genial farm agent
the other day.
"Well, 111 tell you, Cousin,'' he
says, inviting me into his inner office
decorated with assorted photographs
of livestock champs and outstanding
4-H Club boys and girls. "This was
our first county-wide effort, and you
might say it has met with varying
degrees of success ? and some
failures."
"Is that so?" But tell me, John,
how do you go about organizing snch
a large-scale ratrace?"
With this, my' agent friend pro
ceeded to explain that the Farm Bu
reau and the county's Home Demon
stration Clubs were the big guns in
this, war to make the county safe
for feed bags. He said that 14 store
keepers took orders from the farm
ers in their territory, and that 19
4-H Club boys of the Gates high
school spent half a day mixing the
bait
Unaccustomed as I am to going
around knocking off rats, I was
nevertheless keenly interested in the
recipe for this gentle, tasty, if
slightly murderous rat snack.
It seems that Brother Rat, who'
has beefti known to sharpen his teeth
on such common, every day fare as
corn cobs, stable walls, and an oc
casional morsel of asphalt roofing,
is?for all his coarseness, a lover of
life's finer things. Ground fish, tof
instance,
"Yes, sir!" John wis telling me,
"No self-respecting rat will stick ap
his nose ^at good old ground fish.
That's why we used 480 pounds of
it in -more than 900 pounds of bait.
And oat meal?you should see them
go for oat meal!" he says.
So, as we put our recipe together,
we find-that 120 pounds of oat meal
is a very necessary item. Throw in
34 pounds of nice-yellow corn meal,
and you have a rat's breakfast, din
ner and supper all rolled into a quite
welcome dish, I assure you.
"Aha!" cackled the agent, with a

Mr. DOO OWNER ;
?-***?*? '* *? ? |
Due to the fact that we have a lot of stray dogs running
at laftfe oh the streets in the Town of Farmville, the people
"nplaining about the dogs damaging flower gardens
iiar property.
I am asking that all people who own dogs or pets to please
rate In confining them to their premises, so that the
dogs that are not owned or have not been treated for
_ s disease might be disposed of. This is for the purpose
of protecting the children in Town from being bitten by a
dog that has not been treated.
You will recall that last year the Health Department in
Pitt County had to order that all dogs in the county be
quarantined, and with your cooperation this year, this can
btf frwvlmted. Several cases of rabies existed in the coUnty
1 last year where children had come in contact with diseased
dogs.
' For your information I am printing the Town Ordinance
mi to*feqUir6ments of dogs running at large.
Sdetien 111. It shall be unlawful for any
a dog to suffer or permit saidjleg to
ito limits of
within the corporate limits of the Town
' Any perm violating this ordinance' shall be
fined ton ($10.00) dollars.
enforce this law, so will highly appreciate your
