The state officials brought out the point that for the schools to do their best job they must have the help of the patrons.

The wedding of Miss Dorothy Long of Engelhard and Norfolk, Va., and Lt. William Rodger Quinn, USNR, of Howard, South Dakota, was solemnized Monday afternoon. November 27, at 4 o'clock. The Rev. J. T.

Hr corsage was of gardenias. Mrs. Nathaniel Barrett was her sister's matron of honor. Sh I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN, MR. JOHN , It was about this time of year two years ago, on a cold day in early' winter, that I met John Mur t"ugh. Since then we have become the best of friends. The folks at Manteo where he works as foreman of this newspaper's print shop, ca'l him Mr. Murtaugh, but to me it is "Mr. John." John Murtaugh came to the coastland to work in a small town printing plant where life wouldn't be too hard, and where he could live in quiet and in a place where everyone knows even-one else. He came when the shop was short of help, and he was given the job. It has been nice working with him since that time. There have been many difficulties, but we always came through. I like most printers. It's because I like printing so well, I guess. But my friendship with "Mr. John" is deper than it has been with most of them. One thing, he's stayed around longer, and another, we find ourselves liking the same subjects to talk about, read about, and see Becat se I think readf . ; would appreciate their paper more if they knew the fo!ks who make them, is one reason for this t!k ?bout a country printer who doesn't care about puh'ieitv. But most of alb o let "Mr. John" "T haven't forgotten" thnt winter da' re came in the nnMntr noioc I A sen? us threat from forest fires more disastrous than we 1 r ave ever known exists in Dare : County by reason of the great I number of fallen trees damaged I j the recent storm, in the opin- i ! -,o:i ei' A. B. Hooper of Stumpy' Point, who is the forest fire war-. Jen for Dare County. i I In all the Dare mainland, with jits more than 130,(100 acres: on I Roanoke and Collington and Hat-! ' teras Islands, and Kitty Hawk,. I there are thousands of trees broken down by the storm. The ! trurks :id tops on the ground; create the greatest fire hazard; ever known in the county. While j the danger of fires is not great, I at this season of the year, it is a j I fact that a short spell of dry! ' weather ca nsoon dry out these j tree tops to an easily inflammable j state, and the large volume of I , wood on the ground will create! an intense blaze which will spread j to live and valuable timber. Mr. Hooper recommends that ail trees damaged by storm, be cut into firewood by the owners, so far as possible. This will serve a two-fold purpose in that it will reduce the fire hazard. and help relieve the fuel short age. Mr. Hooper urges extreme care with fires, because no mat ter where started, one may spread to an area which is highly in flammable and results will be as serious as if first started in the dry tops. The burning over of timber may result in serious loss in many was to all the people, Mr. Hoop er states, pointing out that ev ery loss from fire is followed by appeals to the County Board by the landowners, for a reduction in taxes on the ground that their 4 r fx K j V '.Jl ,.'!

Davis, for two terms sheriff of Hyde Coun ty, and prominent businessman. The youthful deputy, like his father before him, is known as a good man to do business with. He is quiet and good-mannered. Despite his nervous nature, he generally finds time to talk with those who bring him their prob lems or come to pay their taxes. Davis served for nearly four years in the Navy. He contracted a strange fever while serving in Cuba and was discharged because of the resulting disability. Al though handicapped from time to time by this illness, he carries on his work well, along with keep ing books for T. J. Etheridge, Texaco dealer at Engelhard. Davis is one of Engelhard's most eligible bachelors. He lives with his mother, Mrs. Mattie Mann Davis at Middletown. It was back in 1941, about six months after being discharged number of years.
