L. Kirk-patrict, of -Charlotte, president of the Citizen's Highway association, had beeh read and the request by, him that the Rotary club send a delegation to Rajelgh Thursday to attend the public hearing on the proposed good road law, had, been discussed. President Pol-vogfr ruled that the club could not enter into anything political, but that the members as individuals might be present.

"Uncle" Charlie Covington announced that he intended to make the trip and urged other Rotarians to go along. A petition, urging the general assembly to, appropriate $50,000,000 for good roads, was passed around by "TTncle" Charlie, fnd every Rotarian attached his name to it. This will be presented by Rotarian to the joint house and senate committee at the hearing. After Rotarian Jim Cowan had set forth- a tentative program for the "Pageant Of the Lower Cape Fear." to be held here in the summer, the members of the club heartily Indorsed the idea and agreed to conduct a "country store" at a bazaar to be held in the city auditorium one week before the date of the pageant. Bedlam broke-loose among the Rotarians when a telegram (fake) was read by President Polvogt and -which stated that Rotarian Shrier was in Baltimore" recently and had become engaged to a prominent young lady of that city.

After Rotarian Shrier had been made to stand in a chair while thei members of the club applauded, he was then marched backward and forward in the banquet hall to the tune of Mendelssohn's wedding march played by Rotarian.

Article 29, scctio 5610, of the Public School Law of North Carolina, provides: "Contract between school committees and teacher dt private school. In any school district where there may be a private school regularly conducted for at least six months in the year, unless it is a sectarian or denomina tional school, the school committee may I contract with the teacher of such prlv- ate school to give instruction to all pupils between the ages of, six and 21 years in the branches of learning taught in the public schtols, as prescribed in this chapter, wfchbut charge and free of tuition." It was also pointed out at the board of education office that another section of the same chapter of the Public School Law of North Carolina mignt prevent the board of education from making the appropriation. This is section 5612, which says: "Every teacher of the public school branches in such private school shall obtain a certificate from the state board of examiners covering the class of work to be done before beginning his, or her work, and shall, from time" to time make such repojrts as are required of other teachers under this chapter."

C. ana w. one j. is, Grer; Declaring they are face to face with a mos serious situation, that of paying large payrolls and other heavy overhead expenses which the present revenue of the 'system will not meet, the' officials of theyAtlantic Coast Line atra. fnnnrl it absolutely I Ortj titv I necessary to discontinue some trains and curtail other passenger ira-m service in order, that the receipts may meet the operating-; expense.

It was announced yesterday by Coast Line officials that many passenger trains would jbe discontinued in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and soma in other states. Only two trains on the Wilmington district are to be affected now. These trains are Nos. 57 and between Wilmington and Florence and Nos. 59 and 60, 'operated between Wilmington and Fayetteville.

The Florence train will be discontinued altogether for the time being, while the Fayetteville trains will be curtailed Into tri-weekly service. This, however, leaves 'with a double daily service to P'lorence and daily service to Fayetteville in addition to the triweekly service. The only other curtailment passenger train service near this city is of the Fayetteville-Bennettsville train which is not in the Wilmington district. JVVIth regard to the discontinuance of the trains tqaod from Wilmington, T. C.

White, general passenger agent, yesterday morning issued the following: Sunday, February 6, Atlantic Coast Line will discontinue the operation of train No. 58 arriving at Wilmington at m. from Florence, and train No. Wilmington at 6:45 m. for Florence.

The last trips of these trains will be Saturday, February 5. the same date, trains Nos. 59 and 60, between Wilmington and Fayetteville, will be operated tri-weekly instead of daily, as at present. No. 60 willarrive at Wilmington at 11:05 a.

and No. 59 will leave Wilmington at. 6:30 p. m. only on Tuesdays, and Saturday's.

Last daily trip of these trains will be February 5t" Although Lyman Delano, executive vice-president, announced a few days ago that A. C. L. wouldimake a reduction in the working force, averaging approximately 20 per cent of the employes, because of the falling off in business recently, it has also been found necessary to cut the1 passenger train service to meet- the situation. However, it was pointed out by an official of: the Coast Line yesterday that it was not the intention of the railroad to' permanently discontinue this train service, but that it was a temporary emergency move to meet the payrolls and other expenses.

Many of the large railroad systems announced a curtail-ago because of the decreased passenger ment of train service several weeks and freight business. It will be the policy of the Coast Line to restore every one of these trains just as soon as the business will jusify it. Coast Line officials assured the Wilmington chamber of commerce a few days ago that the discontinuance of the local, trains was a step similar to that being taken with regard to other trains on various parts of the system and that it was only temporary. In deciding which trains would be affected by the 'cut, the railroad officials followed the line or least resistance; that is they removed trains upn which the travel is lightest and upon lines where there is other service ample to take eare of the travel. It was claimed that the travel upon the Florence and Fay-, etteville trains to be effected is- only sufficient to pay about one-third of the cost of operating them.

It was further. claimed by Coast Line officials that only a few of, the heavy trains being operated upon the main line of the A. C. L. between Richmond and Florida- points are really paying.

Many of the trains upon the branch lines are not, it is said? Davlne but trains which are to be discontinued are! tnose rrom which the revenue is least and the travel the lightest. Because of the falling off in the amount of freight business, numerous, freight trains have also been removed BEACH PROPERTY OWNERS MEET TOMORROW. NIGHT To Consider Means of Checking Storm Damages declde uPn what steps should be taken to protect Beach from further damage Mayor Thomas H. Wright has called meeting of all property owners "i of the resor tor tomorrow night, at 15 rooms th. chamber of commerce While" no program for the meeting has been arranged.

Mayor Wright said yesterday that the sole purpose of the meeting was to find out exactly what the property owners of Wrig-htville Beach desired to ul from future storms. He said that he favored some concerted action on the part of those owning property on the beach, Vand Hhat hf felt certain that at the meeting tomorrow night definite plan of action would Je decided upon. As has been' reported in these -columns previously, the recent storm carried away considerable sand and to oroe. extent carried away the sand snore une much nearer the cottages on the beach. However, an optimistic opinion appears to prevail among the property owners s-ome holding that the sands carried away during the last storm will be elemcnt sooner or later: others believe that jetties or bul-waiks, which serve as sand-trana should be placed off" shore at ria-ht angle with the shore line, and that ihe natural action wf the-currents and the 'wir-da will replace the siands." i LOCAL XOTICE TO MARIVEns South Carolina Charleston harbor entrance-Fort Sumter range front light destroyed by collision January 30, 1921 Pending the rebuilding of the structure and re-establishment of, the light a temporary light will be maintained in St.
