there is good reason to believe that more than 110 will be-
interested in the goals the
achieve.
Insofar as tourist activities are concerned, it behooves all
of us to make hay while the sun shines from May to September,
but the far-sighted Chamber of Commerce In coastal areas looks,
too. to obtaining and maintaining a sound all yeai round business
community..
According to the Beaufort Chamber's outline of its program
of work, the tourjst trade isn't being overemphasized, but because
it is the easiest source of money in this area, this could swell all
out of proportion.

The curse of coastal towns
s activity. The biggest field
ment is usually agricultural and industrial. And only with an
organization such as a Chamber of Commerce, with a specific aim
to develop these fields, can the curse be removed.
Carteret county now has two wide awake Chambers of Com
merce, a team of two horses can always pull a heavy load better
than one and no one can deny that Carteret county's load is
heavy.
Of course, there will always be competition between the two
communities, but this competition, healthy and friendly, can vir-
j; tually bring goldmines to all of
j; feuding can bring us nothing but trouble.
J; Our hats arc off to the Beaufort Chamber, they are off to

i pmg success. And that one thing Is COOPERATION.

The News and Observer yesterday morning in an editorial
advocating statewide laws on gambling, commented. "North Caro
lina now has no legalized gambling except on one dog track in
Beaufort county.
It would simplify matters greatly if Carteret county were
Beaufort county with Beaufort as the county scat. Buf history
and geogrnphy are rarely simple.
All we can suggest is that our contemporary's editorial writ
ers refer occasionally to a map of the state. Maybe we should
send them one, signed, "Courtesy of Cirteret County, site of the
statt's only dog track."

The employer-train must de
cide whether a veteran training on

today.
According to E. C. Hemingway,
Chinf. VR & E Division of the

may be given lrt the establishment
where a veteran is employed or in
n institution. He added that such
instruction is required of some
veterans but not of others, depend
ing upon the individual's educa
tional background in relation to
his training objective.
The North. Carolina State Ap

is approved, provision must be
made for related instruction for

Again the 8(017,
Of a Doctor...
By A. J.
B W. G. Rogers
SHANNON'S WAY, bv A. J. Cro
nin (Little, Brown; $3)
Here . is another of those pere
nially popular stories about the
doctor, in this gase Robert Shan
non, young, handsome and deter
mined not to be the general practi
tioner but a research worker.
While in Prof. Usher's labora
tory, helping in a job will per
haps add to Usher's repute rather
then his own, he becomes interest
ed In a disease like influenza
which, has stricken some village
friends; in Usher's absence, Shannon-gives
all his time to his own
investigation. The proud and
haughty Usher fires him; he is
"singularly graceless," the profes
sor accuses, artd a "boor" and of
course badly dressed.
Thanks to his warm-hearted
landlady and her gift of "a glass
of buttermilk and a slice of sponge
cake," the youthful hero recovers
from this blow and looks around
for some backing so that he can
continue his study. In the mean
time he has met a pupil, Jean
Law, who, though unappetizing at
first sight, develops into a "pearl
of gre;it price" despite the handi
cap of his Catholicism and her
membership in the Brethei. They
have their first kiss beneath the
"soft indulgent dome of heaven"
at the time when the countryside
is clothed in the "fresh green
mantle" of spring.
This is the kind of novel in
which the heroine Is the daughter
of an honest baker, and not
ashamed of it, with a mother, In
nocent soul, who wears an apron
and waves a feather duster to
greet her guests. Jean has "white
and wholesome teeth," and her
brother Luke has a "warm, cheer
ful, human air." The characters
inevitably play Grieg, like Strauss
waltzes and adore Sousa.
You can always count on Croiin
to write sponge-cake end butter
milk books, never graceless, never
boorish, never badly dressed. He
doesn't risk experiment; he pre
fers cliches and platitudes to ori
ginal remarks and new ""nations
The book is available at the Car
teret County Public Library.
