Plates or Tin Cans Help
To Design Valance Boards
Cutting symmetrical scallops In
a valance board U no trick if you
plan your project carefully- Vuu
can use a plate or tin cia to pit
tern the design.
Graceful scallops are easy to cut
by using a sheet of tempered hard
board, 'i-inch thick, far the front
of the valance. The top and ends
of the box can be ordinary * -inch
lumber to provide nailing surfaces.
Tbe width of the end pieces is
determined by the type ol curtains,
drapes and fluorescent lighting
fixture* to be installed. Ample
space must be allowed for ruffled
or pleated headings on curtains.
But it'a a .good rule not to exceed
7 inches from the window trim
to the inner side of the valance
front.
Brackets to hold the cornice box
are screwed to the window trim
and trued up; then the cornice box
is bolted to the brackets.
After deciding on the size of
scallop desired, by trying various
plates and pans available, plot your
curves by drawing a line parallel
to the edge of the valance board

How Things Change
(Continued from Page 2, Section 2)
first began until now. He has been
through one tire, one tear down
and occupied three new buildings,
all in all J. C. B. (Brake) Morton,
his younger brother has been as
sociated with him for many years.
"In 19Q9 upon th failure of the
Rank of Carteret, Mr. Morton be
came the leading spirit behind the
organization of the Bank of More
head City. Within twelve hours af
ter he started out he had secured
enough stockholders to organize
the institution which has been so
wonderfully prosperous under his
^presidency.
"His interest in public affairs
has never been passive. Always tak
ing a leading part in every move
ment for the improvement of his
home town and county. Mr. Morton
has been one of the guiding spirits
in the growth and developments.
As a member of the Board of Coun
ty Commissioners and Chairman of
the Board he was re-elected after
two years from 1911 and during
the four years service to the coun
ty. at least one-third of his time
was given over to the matters con
nected with his office.
"For more than 25 years he has
been connected with the schools of
the city, until 1908 a member of
the Board of Trustees of the Meth
odist school, since that time and
during the time Morehead City has
been favored wth a graded school,
he has been a member of the
school board."
After 30 years of serving the
public in the mercantile business,
seven years as clerk and 23 years
as owner, Mr. Morton in 1918 sold
his stock of general merchandise
and wearing apparel to up-state
parties.
George J. Nelson, who for sever
al years had been clerking in the
hardware department, on January
21, 1919 purchased the stock and
goodwill of that department. For
a few years he conducted the bus
iness at the old location, later mov

Michigan Plans
Canadian Link
Sault Ste. Marie, Mich.? (AP)?
With construction of a five-mile
bridge across the Straits of Mackin
ac under way, the Michigan tour
ist industry now has turned its at
tention to promotion of a bridge or
tunnel to link the United States
and Canada across the St Mary's
RJver.
The Straits of Mackinac which
separate Michigan's Upper Penin
sula and Lower Peninsula, and the
St. Mary's River, which separates
Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., from Sault
Ste. Marie, Ont., now are crossed
by ferries.
The East Michigan Tourist Assn.
was the latest public group to give
its support to the Soo Bridge. It
looks upon the ferries as traffic
bottlenecks.
The Michigan Legislature has
authorized a St. Mary's Interna
tional Bridge or Tunnel Authority
and empowered it to float bonds
for a bridge or tunnel across th*
stream between tlw Sault St?
Maries. A similar authority finan
ced the BO-million - dollar straits of
Mackinac bridge.

Tribute W Mr. Davis
Let's pause here to pay tribute to
A brim Davis who holds a record of
continuous service of clerluhip cov
ering 47 yean. A record unequal
ed by any other clerk in Morehead
City or Carteret County. Abram,
as he is best known to his host of
friends, started work (or Mr. Mor
ton in 1907.
Down through the years as the
business changed hands from the
general store to the hardware bus
iness. Abram was retained by the
several owner,s. Faithful, conscien
tious and trustworthy, he has given
the best years of his life to the
service of the public . During the
entire time of his service he never
took a vacation, lost no time from
sickness and has never required
the services of a physician.
For over thirty five years he
daily opened and closed the store
in which he was employed. In days
past, working days were from IK to
18 hours long. Old customers and
friends will insist that Abram wait
on them. Having no children of his
own. Mr. Morton in his long asso
ciation with Abram was said to
have come to look upon him almost
as a son.
As a walker, Abram had no equal
in his younger days. It was not
unusual for him to start out and
walk to Newport or Marshal lberg
and back in a day. He.tells of start
ing for Marshallberg early one Sun
day morning to deliver a horse
collar. He was rowed across the
river to Beaufort, where with the
horse collar over his shoulder, he
took to the highway.
The collar did not fit the horse
so he was obliged to tote it back,
arriving home late in the after
noon. To relieve the monotony
when on a long walk he would walk
a stretch, then run a mile or two.
With seventy-four years of active
life to his credit, his pace now is
a slow walk.
Furniture Firm Takes Over
The corncr store vacated by Mf.
Morton in 1919 was taken over by
the furniture firm of Dowdy Broth
ers who continued in business in
this location until the latter part of
the 1920's. In the meantime
George Nelson sold his interests in
the hardware business to the late
D. G. Bell and Frank B. Klein who
operated under the firm name of
the Mariro Hardware Company.
Following the vacating of the cor
ner store by Dowdy Brothers, the
hardware company took over the
entire building.
To make way for the construc
tion of the Wade Theatre, now
the City Theatre, it was necessary
to tear down a one-story brick
building in which was located Huf
ham's Drug store and a dress shop,
l>' ?? ? i m
compelling thou tenant! to seek
new quarters
To provide (pace (or the drug
store, Mr. Bell closed off the east
side store space which was being
used in connection with the hard
ware business, giving Mr. Hufhara
a location for his pharmacy. From
that time until the closing of the
SJtW Drug Ca., this space con
lained a drug business. The store
has now reverted to the use it
served lor many years, that of a
hardware store. ?
Over a period of 2S yfars or mare
the hardware business, first oper
ated by Mr. Morton, then by
George Nelson, enlarged and de
veloped under the name of the Ma
rine Hardware Company and
changed ownership several times.
When purchased by Beaufort in
terests. the business name was
changed to the Hardware and
Building Supply Co. This name
has been retained by the present
owners, J. A. Durham and J. Frank
Cheek. Since taking over the
business the new owners have add
ed materially to their stock, re
quiring additional space.
For older citizens, the memory
of Mr. Morton will always be as
sociated with this corner block.
Also will be recalled his deep in
terest in the civic and business af
fairs of th? town. Bis passing in
April 1924 was a Ian, not only to
his family but to the community
at large.
