But it was not generally known
here that a high board fence had been
built at Blowing Rock and that a fee
of 25 cents was being charged there
for the privilege of seeing this famous
rock and the view from it.

MARIAN MARTIN DESIGNS FOR NEW AND LATER
Complete, Diagrammed Marian Martin Sew Chart Included
PATTERN 9084
Frocks that you make in August should have possibilities of Autumn wear
—and this one has! Make it in a dark color and you will be delighted to
have it to wear under a coat. In that case it might be best to use the long,
sleeve version you see in the little sketch. If, however, it is to be just one
more summer frock you will find the short sleeves of the large drawing cool
er and a trifle quicker to make. The The frock has good lines and the
graceful revers are both slenderizing and flattering. The double pleat in
the skirt gives ample freedom. The buttons are for trim only.
Pattern 9084 may be ordered only in sizes 16, 18, 20, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42 and
44. Size 36 requires 3 1-4 yards 39 inch fabric and 5-8 yard contrasting.
Send FIFTEEN CENTS -n coins or stamps (coins preferred) for EACH
MARIAN MARTIN PATTERN. Be rure to write plainly your NAME, AD
DRESS, the STYLE NUMBER and FUZE of each pattern ordered.
How would lok like a book of sash ions especially desgined for sun
drenched days and starlit nights? It tells you, and has pictures of every
thing from a wedding dress to a garden frock. It shows you the latest fab
rics, r.nd talks wisely about beauty. In short ... it’s a treasure! It’s the

enjoyment of the public, Director R.
Bruce Etheridge maintains. During
the past week Director Etheridge ad
vocated the purchase by the State of
the toll road leading to Mount Mit
chell, so that the public generally may
visit this monarch of all North Caro-,
lina peaks without having to pay a
toll. The State already owns some 1.-
200 acres on thes ummit of Mitchell
which could easily converted into
a State park.
For the past five or six years the
Department of Conservation and De
velopment has sought to gpet the peo
ple of th e State as -veil as past Gen
eral Assemblies interested in a pro
gram to acquire and preserve points
of scenic and historic interest and thus
prevent just what is happening at
Motehead City and Blowing Rock, Dl
rector Efheridg e pointed out. But it
takes money to acquire and develop
these places and the General Assembly
has refused to make any appropria
tions for this purpose. During the
past year, however, the Federal gov
ernment, through the CWA, the FERA
and toher agencies has provided some
money for the preservation and re
storation of some of these spots Most
notable of thes e is the restration of
Old Fort Raleigh, on Roanoke sland,
where the first colony on this con
tinent was found rd by Sir Walter
Raleigh in 1584. The reparation ot
this old settlement by the CWA and
FERA has now just about been com
lie the week of August 13 to 18 with
pleted and will b e opened to the pub
a big celebration and formal dedica
tion. But there are a score or more
of points in the State which the de
partment is convinced should be pur
chased by th e State and preserved for
all time as State parks ancT recreation
grounds, and which otherwise are to
'be exploited by private individuals for
personal gain.
As soon as it can get the funds, the
Department of Conservation is plan-'
ning to open a public bathing beach
at Fort Macon, owned by the State,
just up the beach from Atlantic Beach,
across from Morehead City. But at
the present time is is without funds
to do this. So in the meantime the
public is at the mercy of the Atlantic
Beach management and must pay the
25 cent fee to bathe in the ocean.
In commenting on the charging of
the 25 cent fee at Blowing Rock, the
Gastonia Gazette says:
“Blowing Rock has been associated
with North Carolinians from time im
[’■ memorial. It has been the most popu
lar and best loved spot in the moun
tains for myriads of people. It ought
be kept free and unrestricted”.
, Commenting further on the Blow:-
»ng Rock situation. The Charlotte
News says:
“For two bits, North Carolina chil
dren can 3ee that gigantic mountain
masterpiece, a thing which from in
fancy they have woven into their
budding conception of North Caro
lina’s wonders.
“For two bits, visitors from afar,
drawn here by the wonders and beau
ties wdiich a lavish nature has given
us freely as the water and the air, may
see Blowing Rock, one of th e grandest
pf our spectacles.
“For two re*,::, any one me" see
Blowing Rock".

2- Trumps, with a singleton dia
mond. Probably just because he held
150 Aces. Then when he was warned
by his partner’s overcall of 3-Spades
(which was some bid), he went 3-No
Trumps.
Os course the opening lead was the
K of diamonds. That sobered up
West for a few moments, at least.
He carefully noted that he required
4 entries in dummy to lake 1 finesse
in spades. 1 in clubs and 2 in hearts.
He should not have thought of tak-

wasn’t my partner, so it was none
of my business.
Having scanned the hand care
fully. West led the 9 of spades, tc
avoid a later block if all went well.
Dummy’s K won the trick. A re
turn lead of a low spade enabled de
clarer’s J to win on a finesse. The
Ace dropped the and the 2 of
spades was overtaken with dummy’s
5, giving West his first 5 tricks.
The 6 of hearts was led. The J
won on a finesse. Insuring the de
clarer 10 tricks, without further risk.
H# had won 6 tricks. He held 2
certain added tricks in clubs, and
he could again finesse hearts through
South. That was the safe and sane
thing to do. with * flock of estab

hand.
All of us expected the declarer t«
take his 10 tricks, and quit, but ti#

wondered. Dummy’s K won th«
trick, and back went the 2 of clubt.
to try the J finesse. It won. The
declarer led his Ace of clubs, dropped
the Q, and then he led his 6 of clubs,
which dummy won with the 7.
Again hearts were led. The Q
won on a finesse, and the Ace won
the twelfth trick. The last trick
went to South's good heart. The
only remark came in a very English
voice from East: "Beautifully con
ceived, partner, but a hit dangerous,
don't you think?" Not another com
ment was made. West's face plainly
enough showed that the quiet thrust
had penetrated.
