By the Associated Press<P>
Kinston, March 28—Considerable trouble is being experienced by the state fisheries commission in regulating the trapping and seining in the streams in this part of the state, it was learned here today. According to J.K. Dixon of Trenton, the inhabitants of points further down the streams are complaining of the irregulation actions of those who make use of the upper stream’s game. It is the hope of the commission, I was said, that a closer co-operation between the officials and those who make use of the streams may be affected so that all may profit by the increased number of fishes that will result from the observance of the fish laws. <P>

In his talk last week the eminent botanist from Chicago, Mr. Cowles, spoke of the distinction of North Carolina in being the only place in the world growing the plant known as the “Venus flytrap.” I am not so much interested int is since I had my windows screened. What I want is a plant that will serve as a mousetrap. I wish W.C. Coker would discover one; if it has to have a name taken from mythology I suggest it be called the Diana mousetrap, in honor of the celebrated huntress.<P>
-=-<P>
I admired Mr. Coker’s judgment and enterprise in bringing Mr. Cowles here, but I am frank to say that I was not enthusiastic about our own botanist’s choice of decorations for the lecture room. A human skeleton occupied a prominent place a few feet from the speaker, with a pose loose-jointed and floppy, like James Kyser doing a clog dance. On the table near the ??? of a man lying on his back with a number of his inner sections visible. But Mr. Coker brought Mr. Cowles here on very short notice and of course did not have time to adorn the room with appropriate plants and flowers.<P>
-=-<P>
There’s nothing quite like the sensation that an author has when he first sees his production in print. I had the pleasure of being present the other day when Roulhac Hamilton opened the April issue of the “American Boy” containing his prize-winning letter in the magazine’s competition among parents. The letters tell about the “American Boy” as a joy in the home. Mr. Hamilton took a $10 prize. I notice that he refers to himself in this letter as a “middle-aged college professor.” This is the only thing in his piece that I find to criticize. He is premature.<P>
-=-<P>
A few months ago I put up some partitions in the printshop and provided, in them, doors that I thought would be adequate to every need. But I felt ashamed of myself as a designer when our health officer, Dr. Nathan, came in to see me last week. It was only with great difficulty, and after much drawing-in of important parts of him, that he could squeeze through into the office.<P>
-=-<P>
One of the tragedies of the village these last few weeks has been the separating of the trio composed of Sara Curtis Kyser, Katrina Nash and Nell Booker. Nell has had whooping cough and has been isolated both by parental and municipal order. Katrina and Sarah play in the Nash yard, while Nell, 50 yards or so away on her own premises, looks longingly toward them and now and then calls or waves a greeting.<P>
-=-<P>
I like to see people good to animals, especially dogs. Jack Sronce, the student who helps run the presses in the printshop, was sharing his ice-cream cone with a beautiful brown setter a day or two ago. He would lean over and let the setter have two or three licks at the ice-ream, then he would take a bite or two himself. This kept up until the cone was gone. This incident made me like Jack Sronce more than ever. It seemed to me to be the proper spirit to display toward a dog whom you claimed as your friend. I think I will tell Mr. Pollard, the Waverly man, about this. The Victor phonograph people have made a great deal of their pictures of a dog listening to a phonograph, and maybe Mr. Pollard will use this idea for his ice-cream.<P>

Township’s Citizens Gather to Give Views to the School Board. . . Keen Interest Is Shown</B><P>
Keen interest in the school needs of Bingham township brought between 75 and 100 citizens to White Cross Monday morning to advise the county school board upon a site for the new township school. the choice lay between a tract of 8 ½ acres already owned by the county and a tract half a mile further east offered by Lueco Lloyd.<P>
During the proceedings F.J. Eubanks offered to donate four or five acres lying between the county’s land and the Chapel Hill-Saxapahaw-Graham highway. This would increase the school site to about 13 acres and give it a frontage on a main road.<P>
On behalf of the land offered by Mr. Lloyd, it is urged that this being immediately at White Cross at the junction of main roads, is more accessible. But the advocates of the other site say they do not like the school to be placed so close to the eastern boundary of the township. This, they say, would be in disregard of the interests of the majority of the township’s population.<P>
Undoubtedly the majority of those who were present Monday morning favored the site already owned by the county. Among those who spoke for it were Harmon McIver of the Bethlehem church neighborhood, G. Ed. Copeland, and C.H. Sykes.<P>
It looked for a minute as if there were going to be a spirited dispute between he men holding opposite views about the sites, but Mr. Browning, chairman of the school board, turned the discussion into more quiet channels.<P>
The main impression one got from the gathering was that the whole township was deeply interested in education and was determined to have a modern school. The money necessary for the building, about $15,000, is already assured from the State’s school loan fund. Mr. Browning had with him Monday his associates on the board, Mr. McDade and Mr. Efland. They said they would decide on the site at their next meeting, April 7th.<P>
Several of the men at Monday’s gathering said that, although they felt themselves burdened by taxes, they wanted good schooling for their children and grandchildren and, to get it, were willing to be taxed still further. “It’s getting so it’s more profitable to sell your land than it is to pay taxes on it,” said Paul C. Lloyd, “but we need schools and I am willing to sell land if necessary to meet the taxes.”<P>
E.W. Knight said that it was an encouraging sign that so many men in the township turned out to this meeting. It showed their real interest in the schools. He said that the idea was to lengthen the school term to at least 8 months.<P>
A fine dinner was served by the women who came along with their husbands and fathers. The table was spread near a flag pole flying the Stars and Stripes.<P>

Collier Cobb, 62 years old last Friday, had three birthday parties. At the first, Mr. and Mrs. Prouty, G.K.G. Henry, and Mrs. Denny were the guests. The second party came about when Mr. Cobb found in his recitation room at college a big box containing a Lady Baltimore cake, and asked the givers, his class in geology, down to his home to help eat it. At the third celebration Mrs. Lucy Phillips Russell and Miss Cornelia Love were guests. Mr. Cobb got gifts and letters and telegrams from all over North America, Europe and Asia. South America and Australia did not contribute, but there were plenty of messages without theirs.<P>

Jane Pratt Bayley, who came here last week from Springfield, Ohio, wants the mumps—but not for herself. Here is how the matter stands: Jane is extremely fond of Chapel Hill. She has been yearning for it ever since she left. With her from Ohio came 7-year-old Eldon Bailey Jr. Joe Pratt has the mumps. Jane thinks it would be an excellent thing if Eldon would catch them from Joe, and have a long siege in quarantine, since this would prolong indefinitely her visit here.<P>

His associates in the droughting room were informed the day after Nancy Jane was born that she had blue eyes, but a few days later a revised report was sent in with the information that her eyes have turned brown. Mr. Winslow was charmed with the blue eyes, and is said to be equally charmed with the brown.<P>

By Inez Matthews, Editor<P>
Miss Eunice McDowell has received a very interesting letter from Mrs. Harry Tyler, a former graduate of Chowan.<P>
Mrs. Tyler is the daughter of Rev. R.H. Land, who taught Latin, Language, and Literature here in 1883-84. She came here in September of ’74 and graduated in the class of ’76. Her many friends remember her as being very talented in music. She married Mr. Harry Tyler, a well known and prominent Baptist of Baltimore, Maryland, at which place she is now living.<P>
Mrs. Tyler is very interested in the library campaign here. Her letter reads:<P>
“I have so often thought of the happy days at Chowan, and especially of the good work being done there. I am so glad to send you a check, with which to buy books, and I am greatly interested in seeing my Alma Mater develop into a class A college. I believe with all my heart in Christian education, and I trust our southern high-grade schools and colleges will not employ teachers who do not believe in the Book of books. Take our Bibles from us and what have left to make life worth living?”
We appreciate this letter so much, and also the check. Letters like this one give us much encouragement, and inspire us to work harder than ever for our goal.<P>

It seems to me a perfect girl would have eyes like Meryl Britton’s, teeth like Hazel Griffith’s, mouth and complexion like Marietta Bridger’s, hair like Edna Mills, and a figure like Myra Benthall’s. She would be as stylish as Janice Ballentine, as neat as Rosalie Tolar, could make a speech like Estelle Carleton, could play basket ball like Vida Bryant, and could cook like Iola Bryant. She would combine a disposition like Jessie Marie Parker’s, a mind and character like Thelma Draper’s, and with a sense of humor like Elizabeth Watson’s. But are the virtues enough for one girl? they are. Therefore the Sophomore Class is “all perfect” in itself.<P>
