Arrangements For Festival Are Rapidly Rounding Out (Continued front Page One) Cavenaugh will supply the cor sages worn by Mrs. Roosevelt, the Queen and her maids of honor. Full details attendant upon the staging of the nightly dances and the Queen’s Ball on Friday night will be under the supervision of Wiley B. Knowles and R- M. Browder, Mr. Dunn stated, while the ca pable secretary of the festival will himself stage the fashion show on Wednesday night, as well as looking out for the ar rangement of the large number of exhibition booths. Believing that the best isj none too good for the multi tude of visitors Wallace will undoubtedly be called on to entertain the week of the fes tival, the mayor informed the Enterprise today that the ser vices Of A. A. Hill, of Danville, Va., head of the Hillco Sound Service, had been obtained to install in the warehouse and direct the operation of one of the finest sound amplifying systems available. This will make it possible, the mayor said, for people in the remotest corner of the great building to hear with ease every word spok ken on the several programs arranged for the festival week. This modern sound amplifying system will be doubly appre ciated by the thousands who i will be on hand to hear the First Lady and other notables June 11. j The festival continues to re-j ceive a great deal of publicity through the press, and this was augmented by a visit made by Mr. Reh this past week-end to various points on the coast with a large truck, on the sides of which were displayed large banners giving the date of the festival, the picture of a tre mendous red strawberry, and the names of some of the fea-l ture acts booked for the festi val. The truck visited New Al>l. a Tti*'- t Giv! 21M“” 2t££ sboppC 1 Bern, Jacksonville, Beaufort, Richlands, Maysville, and other towns. Mr. Reh stated that the banners attracted much atten tion at Morehead City and 1 Beaufort, where the beaches drew hundreds this past Sun day. ' Due to the huge crowd ex pected here the week of the celebration, the State Highway Commission has assured the ■ festival committee that they 1 will cooperate wholeheartedly in any way possible. Fifty state patrolmen have been as signed to the Wallace section for the festival, and, in addi tion a state road force is at present engaged in beautifying all road approaches to the Town, and are cooperating in every other way possible with town officials. While the outlook for this year’s festival is undoubtedly of the best, Mayor Harrell con fided today that by far the most heart“warming. and encouraging, thing he has yet come in con tact with is the exceedingly friendly attitude Of the muni cipalities through -which the motorcade will. pass. The may ors of Kenansville, Warsaw; Lumberton, Maxton, Windsor, Wilmington, Kinston and liter ally dozens of others have shown an especial interest: inf plans to advertise the festival and have offered escorts, en :ertainment, and literally every jther kind of assistance imag nable to the Wallace represen :atives. Mayor Blair, of Wil-j mington, even went to the trou-l ble to call Mayor Harrell on, the phone one day this week toj tell him that a place had been( reserved for the motorcade in. front of the city hall, and that] a right royal welcome waited, the unit in the sea coast city. I BERRY MARKETS (Continued from Page One) market during the past six days were as follows: Thurs day, May 6th, 5,971 crates; Friday, May 7th, 5,438; Satur day, May '8th, 7,188; Monday, May 10th, 12,364; Tuesday, May 11th, 8,834, and Wednesday, May 12, 11,831.

J, Carr, of near Teachey, met for an enjoyable Mother’s Day re union at the home of their pa rents.

EMPLOYMENT MEN TO VISIT DUPLIN (Continued from Page 1) not known poitively when the representatives will canvass Duplin county, but it will pro bably take place shortly. As in other counties, the field men will try to find all employ ers who are subject to the Un employment Compensation Act, and who have not made re ports or contributions on the wages of their employees, and help them to make the proper reports and remittances. APPEAL MADE BY SECURITY BOARD (Continued from Page One) numbers could be recorded on the employers’ records. In some of these instances, Mr. Wade said, employers have not known what to do with the cards. In these cases, and in all others where account number cards are given to employers, Mr. Wade emphasized that they should be turned over to em ployees promptly. Mr. Wade pointed out that employees, in reporting their social security account numbers to employers, need not give their account cards to employ ers the account numbers—not the cards. Four purposes of the Feder al old-age benefits program, employers, beginning next July, will use account numbers in reporting the amount of wages paid employees. These wages will be credited to the indivi dual employee’s social security account. The amount of old age benefits will be based on the total amount of wages paid the individual employee in cov ered employment after 1936 and until he reaches age 65. Employees in industry and commerce who do not have ac count numbers were urged to aply immediately at their local post offices for them. Duplicate account cards, Mr. Wade add ed, may be obtained in the same way by employees who have lost their cards. Mr. Wade also called atten tion to the fact that counter feit account cards were being used by some unscrupulous people to aid them in cashing l checks and as identification for other purposes, and a word of warning in this respect is in order. FREIGHT SERVICE RESTORED BY R. R. (Continued from Pane 1) tended by representative ship pers from Duplin, Pender, and Wayne counties. Similar meet ings were also held in Chad bourn where sentiment was the same as that expressed here. With the fast freight service again available 'shippers will be able to make second morn ing delivery on a number of markets which ordinarily are not reached before the third morning.

R. H. STEVENS DIES OF HEART ATTACK (Continued from Page 1) his widow and one son, Hugh Blair Stevens, and one grand-' child. As an example of the esteem in which Mr. Stevens was held by his friends and associates, the Goldsboro News-Argus said: "Rufus H. Stevens was a man whose word had ever been as good as hie bond. Honest, frank in his dealings with all men, «11 who dcnew him *ave him respect.” WAIVE TERM AND HAVE OASES TRIED (Continued from Page 1) highways of Duplin County, wtyile under the influence ofj intoxicating -liquors and. re ceived a four-months road, sen- [ tence.

A man drove his car on Gulfpride Oil 100,000 miles—without ever needing a repair, without having the head off the motor, without ever adding a drop of oil between crankcase drains. THESE 5 BOTTLES prove Gulfpride the finest of Pennsylvanias. The first bottle contains a mixture of highly refined 100% pure Pennsylvania motor oils. The second bottle shows the oil after Alchlor refining—a full 20% discarded. The third bottle shows the 20% waste that forms carbon, sludge, and gum. This waste is not present in Gulfpride. AUTO BUDGETS are low for Gulfpride users. For full-bodied Gulfpride not only lasts longer but it also lubricates better. Drain and refill with Gulfpride—holder of over a dozen world records and the favorite of leading airlines. Then, fill your tank with Gulf’s new No*_Nox Ethyl and drive a pair of real champions. R. M.
