RELATIVES GIVE DAVIS A HAPPY BIRTHDAY Manteo Merchant, Longest in Busi ness 74 March 15; Operated in Manteo 46 Years Carson W. Davis, whose cloth ing store is the oldest firm in op eration in Manteo, having been started in 1906, was honored by his children and other relatives at a birthday dinner, Sunday, March 16; he was 74 years old on the 15th. His store, and his advertising slo gan, “Davis Wants To See You” have become widely known in the 46 years of its career. Mr. Davis came to Manteo in 1900 as a salesman lor the general store of Griffin and Smith, and in 19u6 went into business with the late R. W. Smith in the old wooden building at the foot of Lodge Street, it is now. The popular con ception of a store in those days was a place that sold everything from carpet tacks to cotton shirts. The principal stores of ' Manteo then carried everything: groceries, hardware, feeds, seeds, etc. Mr. Davis’ venture in business was immediately dubbed a failure. “Wouldn’t last six months,” they said. “Nobody can succeed selling nothing but dry goods.” That is just what Mr. Davis proposed to do, just sell shoes, dry goods and clothing and nothing else. His vis ion and energy have proved they were all mistaken, and Davis’ store has been continuously successful. Mr. Smith did not live long, and Mr. Davis soon became sole owner of the business, moving a few years later to his present build ing. For several years his two sons, Ralph and Vernon have been as sociated with the store. Its career has never been interrupted through all the years. Mr. Davis has stuck tight to his business every day. Beyond his buying trips north, and l in recent years, his visits to his i daughter, Mrs. J. R. Meikle in Roanoke Rapids, he seldom left town. He has never engaged in outside interests, and has proved completely the value of taking up an idea and sticking to it. Blessed with the native thrift that comes so often from the Per quimans county soil where his early life was spent, he has still been generous without show. Those who know him best know that he has been liberal in his help for worthy causes. Besides his three children, their wives and husband; his grandchil dren, two sisters and two brothers now living in Portsmouth, Va., at tended the dinner at the Davis home Sunday. They are Ralph and Eraest Davis, Mrs. Melvin Saun ders and Miss Eugenia Davis. BELHAVEN-HYDE BOYS NOW SERVING IN KOREA WITH THE 40TH INFANTRY DIV. IN KOREA—Pfc. Allan W. Ballance, Fairfield, N. C., and Pfc. James F. Ball, Jr., 335 Har vey St., Washington, N. C., are among the first members of the 40 th Infantry Division to be [awarded the Combat Infantry man Badge, symbol of the front line fighting man, since the unit’s arrival in Korea. The badge shows a miniature Revolutionary War flintlock rifle mounted against a blue rectang'e which is surrounded by a wreath. The 40th, a National Guard unit from Southern California, Sas the first organization of its nd to arrive overseas after the start of the Korean conflict. It trained for 16 months in Japan before it was committed to Korea in January. SAND FENCES PLANNED FOR HATTERAS ROAD W. N. Spruill, division highway engineer, plans to solve the prob lem of potential washouts and sand covered roads by the erection of sand fences alongside the new Hatteras Highway, according to word received this week from Bux ton-on-Cape Hatteras. The prob lem of erosion, washouts and blow ing sand has caused no little con cern to state highway officials for their Outer Banks Highway which is destined to become one of the most traveled tourist roads in North Carolina east of the federal government’s parkways in the mountains. While on Cape Hatteras to meet with State Park and U. S. Coast Guard planning officials for an ex tension of a three mile paved route through the State Park and gov ernment properties between Bux ton and the Point of the Cape on Tuesday, Spruill was shown the ad vantages of sand fence building in the vicinity of famous Cape Hat teras Lighthouse. The Sand Fence there was built by Civilian Con servation Corps during the Thirties and resulted in building up moun tainous grass covered dunes which saved the lighthouse from possible destruction and also stopped ero sion generally. It was indicated that Spruill may purchase ordinary snow fences to place adjacent to the new highway between Oregon Inlet and Hat teras in efforts to build up natural barriers that would halt erosion, blowing sand and perhaps, wash outs. PHONE COMPANY WANTS TO RAISE ITS RATES A $900,000 increase in income from higher phone rates is being ought by the Carolina Telephone Company. An appeal for this in crease is to be heard by the State Utilities Commission March 25th in Raleigh at ten o’clock in the offices of the commission. Among other counties, this company serves Hyde and Beaufort. It is likely there will be no opposition, or at least not enough to prevent the Commission granting the increase. It is to be hoped the Company will make an effort to provide better facilities and more complete service in the Belhaven and Hyde area. WINS SUPERIOR RATING Miss Pat Baum of Manteo at tended the district music festival of the North Carolina Federation of Music Clubs at -East Carolina I College in Greenville last Satur- Iday, and won a superior rating on her piano performance.

Berry, BTFN, 2781474 USN, whose home address is Swan Quarter, N. C., and is now serving aboard the Destroyer U. S. S. Hank (DD 702) which at present I is part of a U. S. Navy Task Force i -"contl” ret'irned from a success ■ -etical base on the southern tip of ' “'f. r supply expedition to a theo- Greenland. The minor cold weather exercise commenced at Norfolk, Virginia, on January 21, 1952. The exercise provided fleet units an op portunity to test the latest in cold weather weapons and equipment as well as the newest improvements in foul weather clothing. THREE MILE SPUR ROAD PROPOSED CAPE HATTERAS A paved road branching off from the new Hatteras Highway at a point near Buxton and passing by Cape Hatteras Light and through Cape Hatteras State Park, and thence by the U. S. Coast Guard Life Boat and Loran stations, term inating at a public parking area at the point, is scheduled to be con structed at an early date. The road would replace a sandy trail, hardly passable at times, which has re sulted in wearnig out many thousands of dollars worth of gov ernment and privately owned auto mobiles, trucks and other vehicles through the years. To unify plans for paving this three miles of highway leading through one of the outstanding naritime attractions of the world, epresentatives of North Caro lina’s Park Service, the U. S. Coast Guard and State Highway and Public Works Commission met here on Tuesday. The meeting was brought about through the initia-. tive of Chief Warrant Officer Cy rus Gray, commanding, Hatteras groug, Coast Guard. Construction of the road would be financed jointly by State Park Service and U. S. Coast Guard with engineering by the Highway Commission. Under the plans dis cussed, the three miles of pavement would be an extension of the pres ent Pea Island link that is being built by Ballinger Paving Comp any. Present for the discussion were W. N. Spruill, division highway engineer, J. P. Hamilton and M. K. Moore, Ballinger Paving Comp any, B. A. Heidelbach, landscape engineer State Park Service, who was representing Conservation and Development director George Ross, and M. H. Thomas, representing Capt. L. D. Edwards, District Coast er Gray of Hatteras Island Coast Guard Engineer, Group Command- Guard and Ben Dixon Mac Neill, of Buxton-on Cape Hatteras. Captain Edwards and also Capt. L'. H. Baker of the Coast Guard, formerly District Commandant, have long been interested in the project for Cape Hatteras area where so much equipment has been worn out by traveling over the sandy trails. One spokesman of the group here Tuesday indicated that the Coast Guard’s share of the money proposed to be spent would be quickly recovered in the saving of equipment. The three miles of highway would also make it possible for the great flux of vacationists and tourists who will be visiting the area after the hard surface road is completed from Oregon Inlet, to drive direct and without difficulty to the famous lighthouse, the Coast Guard units and to the Point of Cape Hatteras where northern and southern waters of the ocean meet. A feature of the meeting here was a luncheon especially prepared for the group by Pender County [ born Lewis M. Wheeler, cook at ! the Station. SPRING CLEANUP ON FARMS URGED Giving your farm a spring ' cleanup will make it' much safer 1 as well as much more attractive, says your county farm agent for 1 the State College Extension Ser vice. He points out that tools, bags of feed, buckets, and just common debris and trash are responsible for hospitalizing one out of every five accident victims on the farm. This was shown by a study con ducted by the National Safety Council. The largest single cause of in juries, other then the personal fac tor of poor judgment, is disorder. To play safe, the farmer should correct such hazards as broken, wobbly steps which might cripple someone for life; tottery old build ings that sometimes cause serious injuries; unmarked bottles of poison, and poisons left within the reach of children which often cause tragedies; accumulations of trash, paper, scattered boxes and boards, rags and rubbish which are serious fire hazards and ideal breeding places for rats. ‘Springtime,” says the county agent, “is nature’s cleanup time, a time when the earth takes on a new, refreshed look. Let’s help nature by cleaning up around the farm and in the farm home, which will not only give the farm a new look but makt it a safer and easier place for working and living.” He adds that if every farm fam ily would conduct a spring clean up campaign, both inside and out, it would go a long way toward eliminating fire and accident haz ards, proviling a mdre healthful i environment, and conserving food i which is badly needed all over the world. Single Copy 7< 1952 RED CROSS DRIVE UNDERWAY IN DARE COUNTY Wallace McCown, Chairman, Urges Full Support From All Parts of County Mrs. Louise Meekins, Chairman of the Dare County Chapter Amer ican • Red Cross, announced today that the Dare County Drive for funds is underway. The quota set for our drive is $651. Last year the drive was a great success and over-subscribed its quota. This year the Red Cross needs are greater than before be cause of the large number of dis aster areas assisted during the past year. The fire in Manteo, which made homeless five families, was one of many instances where the Red Cross came to the assis tance of American families. With continued war in Korea, the Red Cross Over-seas services are even more in demand. Wallace McCown, 1951 Fund ' Chairman, has been selected to head the 1952 drive, and hopes for the continued support of this cause, to which the people of Dare County so generously contributed last year. McCown said, “It is my hope that the people of the many communities in our county will re spond generously, and enable us to make the 1952 Red Cross Drive a successful one. Because of the geographic location of our many communities, it is essential that every citizen give his full support to the local Chairmen. Because of that individual support, our 1951 Drive was successful; let us con tinue that county-wide interest so that in 1952 Dare County will again over-subscribe . its quota. Give and give generously to your , 1952 Red Cross Campaign.” The following persons have been ; asked to lead their community ; drives for this year: Manteo; Rev. A. V. Napier; Manteo colored, Mrs. Lonnie Gray; Waves, Mrs. Nellie Farrow; Mashoes, Mrs. Hattie . Mann; Collington, Mrs. Lewis , Meekins; Rodanthe, Mrs. Charles , Gregory; Kitty Hawk, Mrs. Jesse ‘ Baum; East Lake; Mrs. Emily i Smith; Stumpy Point, Mrs. Calvin i Payne; Salvo, Lafayette Douglas; i Duck, Mrs. Cary Whitson; Buxton, i Mrs. Edna Gray; Wanchese, Mrs. : Myrtle Tillett; Manns Harbor, ■ Mrs. Guy Mann; Avon, Alton Wil- I liams and Winfred Whitlock.
