Dealers will bring their' booths to the museum to display items for sale, while the door fee will benefit the museum. 'The museum is in itself an interesting setting for the event. It uses its collec tions to illustrate the history of its region. , The ten counties in the Albemarle area, which lies east of the Chowan River and borders the Albemarle Sound, are considered the "cradle of North Carolina." Settled in 1583 by Euro peans and for thousands of years before than, by his Indian predecessors, the area fostered North Carolina's beginnings in its social, religious, educa tional, governmental, and economic development. These beginnings are depicted in the exhibits such as "The Domestic Duties of the Farmer," which is an artifactual in terpretation of the everyday life of the pioneer in the Albemarle where 90 Card Club Meets Mrs. G.W. Barbee enter tained her bridge club Tuesday morning at her home on Grubb Street. Those playing were Mrs. T.L. Jessup, Mrs. C.R. Holmes, Mrs. John Coston, Mrs. H.C. Stokes, Mrs. W.C. Dozier, Miss Mary Sumner, Miss Ruby White, and Miss Thelm a Elliott. Mrs. Jessup won the high score prize. A sweet course wasseryed. per cent of the early set tlers made their living from the land. The chores of spin ning and weaving from the basic fiber of flax and the daily tasks of food prepara tion in the 18th and 19th cen turies are explained. "Rich Land and Stately Timber" shows that the lumber industry became a very important by-product of the agricultural com munity. Seventy per cent of the Albemarle, including the Dismal Swamp, is covered by forest and wooded wetlands. Showing another source of income for the early Albemarle settlers, an ex tensive decoy collection tells the story of duck hunting, an occupation that has become a sport. The marshy area surrounding the Currituck and Hyde county banks has always been teeming with wildlife. Today with the necessary restrictions placed on . wildlife, decoys have become a folk art. Along with the perma- j nent stories told in the gallery, during the days of . ; the Antique Show, the Ex tension Homemakers in the ! area will provide a Colonial I Tearoom in the lobby of the . .1 museum. Recipes from the . colonial period will make up the menu and the women will be dressed in colonial v attire.
