THIS WEEK’S BIBLE THOUGHT BE SYMPATHETIC AND UNDERSTANDING: Re- j joke with them that do rejoice and weep with them that weep.—Homans 12:15. _' . ■ I Venture Worth Considering- Good music is a vital, factor In the growth and devel opment of a community, so that The Herald regrets that Edenton has for several years now been without a High School Band. Now, however, an opportunity will be presented t“ enjoy a series of concerts in which the best artists, in the world can be heard, depending upon the number of people who are interested and buy mem- Serships in the Community Concert Association. The more memberships secured, the higher' type .artists wi 1! appear in Edenton. Each member will pay annual dues which. entitles him ; ~r her to attend all; of the concerts presented each.season j without any further expense. It is a non-profit organiza- ( tion. every dollar secured going toward paying the j artists and any necessary local expenses. Admission to ~ the concerts will be only by memberships, so that, no j admissions will be sold after the,concerts are sebedr | aled. Thus there is an assurance of an audience before j any talent is engaged. The artists will also be chosen j by the local association. A preliminary meeting was held last; week and so, j much interest developed that the association was org ,j anizCd and a meeting called for tonight (Thursday I it; the Hotel Coffee Shop at 8:15. RepreSehtati\e> from i the various organizations have been appointed to at tend this meeting in an. effort to sign a contract and 1 to further discuss the idea, but any others who are : Interested in having the concerts are cordially invited to , attend. These concerts hy world, famous artists and musical j attractions add prestige and,distinction to. any city, so i that The Herald hopes that enough interest will be aroused to sign a contract and that after that enough j memberships will be secured to warrant scheduling the • most outstanding artists among the long list available. ; “Feed My Lambs” 1* is reasonable to assume that if a starving person | appeared at any home in Chowan County asking for j food he would be given something to eat. But while everyone in Chowan County apparently has plenty to j eat. there are millions in war-torn countries who will i starve unless the people of the United States come to | their rescue by sending enough food for them to, sur- ; ive. Scores iif thousands in Europe and Asia appear .cer tainly do.' •d. but many other Jives,can be saved if wo get b ,-. : .::d the Emergency Food Collection, for which j. L: <'hesmutt ;s chairman in Chowan County. During the 'drive'-."tir people arc asked to contribute canned j food i" he sent overseas as soon as possible. In event . there is no such food on the, pantry shelves, cash euntri- | nations will be equally as acceptable which will go to- | ward ■purchasing'', food centrally and in'-,large quantities. [ If we help to feed those who now starve we may well -j be protecting our own children and grandchildren from the burning bomb. the shattering guns, the slow or sud den death. Centuries ago. it was ordered by a compassion that knew neither race, creed nor color, “Feed My Lambs,’' Can we afford, to ignore this plea, knowing \ve are all children of God? In the tlame of humanity we are asked to give some- j thing to eat in order to help prevent starving and famine. We in Chowan who have never known hunger should give to those who are dying of it.

PEARCE, Sec. and Treas. 1 - ■■ THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, N. C„ THURSDAY, May 30, 1945. Heard & Seen By “Buff” —* Well, the Democratic Primary is over, and here’s one who can now tell who was elected. Os course, I’ve met up with a number of the boys who “knew” all the time who would be elected. Wise guys, some of em* Anyway, now’ that the election is a thing of the past maybe a fellow can hold a conversation without the injection of politics before the conversation is scarcely more than started. Os course, hard feelings in some cases developed, but here’s one who voted without being influenced by any of the hot air going the rounds, and I treated all candidates alike, so that 1 can continue to j be as friendly with those who lost as those who won. I ! value friendship too much to lose it because of an office i holder trying to hold his job and another trying to get ■ in. Here’s congratulations to all of the winners. ° j I’ve always considered Wade Cashion as an honest ; man, but I can't quite figure out his explanation for ! having one of his hands all bandaged up. First he told | me he hooked a big bass up the creek and the bloomin’ i fish pulled and jerked so hard that his wrist was sprained in trying to land it. Os course, Cal Kramar was nearby at the time, so that Wade changed his story a little, saying that he fell at the USO Club, j landing, on his mid-section and in trying to prevent fall- J j ing injured his wrist."Mv hand is ail that you can see bandaged," he said. A few days last week. I attended the Great Council meeting of Red Men and, of course, met up with folks from all over the State. Naturally, some of ’em were impressed with seeing so much water and several con versations developed. relative to conditions in various counties. The Edenton group put in a good word ! about Chowan County, Which brought a remark from ;. another delegate that his county was so poor that the [ crows carry their lunch when flying oyer. Another said I some sections of his county are in such bad shape that i rabbits strap a carrot across their backs in order to I have something to, eat while roaming around. Alt of which makes me glad I live in little old Chowan. i : . _ —O— '! have been hankerin' to see our old band get together, after a four-year ‘recess' for sort of a reunion, wrote Charlie McCullers the other day. Mac will be re ; menibered as director of Ednton's crack High School Band several years ago and is willing to run over from Kinston to stage a concert on the night of July 4. He j has had a number of favorable replies, so let’s send him t some more in order to induce him to pull off the stunt. | Maybe it will he an incentive to revive the Edenton ■ band, which was and would continue to be an asset to !; the town. . I Maybe 1 could have gotten an ad from J. N. I’ruden in connection with Saturday's Primary election. You j see, I’rudy got only eight votes in the Center Hill pre i cinct to 158 by Weldon llollowell, and I’rudy would like ! to know who they are. Maybe he'd entertain ’em at a steak supper or sunipin’, but then if he advertised the chances are that 158 would turn out instead of the 8— so no ad. ! —— Friends will be interested to know that t. D. Stewart ; has moved from Florida to Hampton, \ a., where he is ; in charge of an office of the Fish and Wildlife Ser | vice. "I think there is more different kinds of seafoods 1 here per square inch than any other place I've seen and ! I’m trying to eat them all up during the first few days 1 of my stay here." he wrote. "The fishing grounds are rather enticing, too,” he says, “and I'll guarantee it i won't be like fishing up Fish Hatchery Creek." With ■ plenty bf seafood and good fishing, methinks C. D. will be having company from Edenton before very long. School will dose next Tuesday, but the preachers will : have to prepare a sermon for Sunday night as usual, for j there will be no baccalaureate sermon for which church 1 services are usually called otl. Neither will there be 1 class, day and graduating exercises, all because of the i eleventh grade having to take another year due to the adoption of a 12-vear course. Besides, friends and rela tives will not receive the usual invitations callng for presents for the graduates. ' o- Ever been really hungry ? Think of the millions who are victims of famine-stricken countries gradually starv ing to death unless food is provided. A few cans of food will not be missed from Chowan homes and there’s no telling how much good it will do Let’s all help in this cry of humanity for food. Mrs. Dail Speaks To Daughter In Egypt Mr*. J. C. Dail received a thrill | Monday afternoon at 2 o’clock when she had a telephone conversation w ith * her daughter, Mrs. H. B. Dixon, who is now in Cairo, Egypt. Mrs. Dail . said her daughter's voice was very plain and that the conversation was carried on just as though both par ties were speaking in Edenton. Mrs. Dixon informed her mother that she and her husband expect to return to the United States some time in August.
