THIS WEEK’S BIBLE THOUGHT !
WE NEED SPIRITUAL" FOOD: And he humbled
thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with
i anna. which thou knew est hot. neither did thy fathers
; know;; that he might, make thee know that man doth not
live by bread only but by every word that proceeded! out
of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.—-Deut. 8:3,
“Be Alive On The Fifth” j
According to the National Safety Council, this Fourth j
t f July, may see a holiday-starved .public, roll .up the ;
greatest mileage everrecorded ion the nation’s speedo-, :.
meters in imv one week-end. More important, the <’oun. il .
’ i
fears it will be. the deadliest week-end in tin- country's
accident history unless the emergency !■ w : t L
emergency caution by everybody.
More than 20,lM;)u,(luii vehicles will pack the -highways :
during, the four-day. holiday period, the Council esti.niat- ;
ed. They will travel, more than four billion miles.
.Mobilizing to avert the threatened disaster, -loti nations :
a. organizations are cooperating; with the Council in a
nationwide Fourth, of July campaign to. consolidate pub
lic and official support, ’.behind-the slogan. "Be Alive On
The Fifth 1"
In. appealing for public coop, ration in the campaign, !
Ned H. Dearborn; president of the Council, said. "I hate
t.<>. throw cold Water on 'holiday anticipation, but wc still -
•have the same; combination; of facts which Ini the CoUn-. 1
ci! before Y-J Day to predict the present upsurge in accE
dental deaths.
■’More travel, a kuig-a\Va.i!e;d vacation season in full
swing. Worn out tires'; and cars, run-down ,highways and
a careless attitude, that, often becomes a. careless atti
tude—-all this, simply adds tip to mitre tragedy. A prel
- diction.can’t spoil your, holiday, hut an accident can."
This advice is presented tio; Herald readers in the hope
that not only those who travel, but those who resort to ,
other means of celebrating the holiday will vise every
precaution possible in an effort to prevent an. accident ,
inch can turn a day of joy into one of sorrow.
Here By Choice
When Robert S. Marsh, new assistant county agent. '
was in the Army, he had jio.choiCf n the matter of j

part of. the state iand despite, thi- fact .that.’ no doubt,
t-nm,. were more ■-attractive froui a financial point of.
von he derided t" accept the (’hnw'aii proposition’.
Mr Marsh some few years ago visited tins -.e, t ion
of the state and was v,ry much impressed, so that !.
when ;e- i’.inYi air opportunity te> c.iiim- here to live it J
taUinlt take him .long to make up his mind. Under such ’j
conditions-, Mr. Marsh'will, most assuredly reflect his sat- J
isfaclioi.)in his '••location, I to; the end that he Will viiedt :
with stic cess-, in. his I new position.’ ■ He is al, farmer ’•• and
- therefore appreciates the position of men and women.arid ’ •
Box - apd a iris off the farm.' 1-
Like : many niorh w ho. have comen to ' Edenton" and |
eChiwyan County-.by choice,.Mr. Marsh wall t:o doubt be j’
an 'asset- not. only |to. the County iAgent's’ office, ’ but to ■
the county as a whole.
Miss Hazel .Shaw, another new-comer in the capacity
of half-time home agent, will, divide her time between
Chowan land Perquimans Counties. She, too, came here -
by choice and will without doubt exert’a helpful influence: ,
among the women and 4-H girls of both counties.
The Herald welcomes both of these .workers, to. Chowan
County and .hopes they will .fall more in love with the
section as they labor in the field in which they are so
much interested.

I Heard & Seen;
By “Buff"’ j
! It was hard for me to unstand last week who so
; many folks asked me if 1 was sick or if I wasout of town.
It all cinne about because 1 was not present for at least
three eating affairs. Tuesday of last week the Masons 1 1
iof the Second District staged a barbecue dinner at I.
j Colerain Beach, then on Wednesday the First District j
Masons pulled off a barbecue dinner over at Hertford !
! and on Thursday night the American Legion, and Legion I
! Auxiliary had a big barbecue chicken dinner out at the
armory. 1 was absent from all three, not that 1 didn’t |
j want to be on hand, but because in two of the instances I
! I had to keep pounding on an Intertype keyboard, while ;
i.nii Thursday night there was a long,winded Masonic!
| Meeting and when I got to the armory Friend John Keet-1 ,
! er was locking up the place- and the chicken had va
. nished. Which ail means that since Tommy Mantling quit
operating our,lntertype machine to go back to Elizabeth
City, I'll be having a dickens of a time trying to di* about j
two or three person'swork. So that if I might make a
Suggestion, here’s voting for future feeds to be held mi]
Friday night. In fact, I’m in about the same fix I was
in when tile war was going on-—and already I have a h
belly full, and-it's not barbecue, either.
When it conies to knowing Legionnaires throughout '
f North Carolina, Bob Pratt no doubt knows more than y
j any membor of Ed Bond I'bst. In fact it was principally | (
due to ’Friend-.Bob’s’ influence that Bill York, new- De
parttnent Conimamie.r, and Amos Maynard, a past com,
inander, .came to Kdeiiton last; week to install the officers
1 of the Post and Auxiliary and help to eat some barbe
cue chicken. Bob expected to have Edwin Burge, 4b and
x chef do guerre, here but he was prevented from mak
ing the trip. Both York and Maynard planned to leave
: after the Legion party, but when they went to the Police
Station ami felt the cool and refreshing breeze whipping
: tip Broad Street, Friend Bob chased over to the hotel,
engaged a front room and gave the order, “You all are -
spending the night in Edenton"—and they did. Incident
ally Edenton may not have a lot of things they have in
the Piedmont section, bub I, don't know w hat they have
for. .which wt-’u exchange that nice cool breeze, off the
sound most of the hot nights when they're sweating up
a storm, at a lot of places.
With the- tmvn's fiscal year beginning July I, atten
tion is called to the fact; that bicycle ow ners must buy -
and: display a license tag on their bicycles; They Te on
sale at the Police Station, so.better get one and be safe.

Walter Bond on! Saturday was passing out some .
samples of. dough nuts which he expects to he making be
fore long at ..his; Bond's Supply Company, next to The
Herald office. If his samples,which he baked at 1 hoine,
are anything like those he will make on a larger scale ■
at his store, The Herald gang will no doubt he broke .
half, of the time. But then there ought to he some ad- 1
vantage, fori maybe they'll not he going home for din- .
her. At . airy rate, the doughnuts were good -and here’s .<

most forgotten what a fish looks like. When, "h when,
will the bloomin’ fish begin biting again?
Holy smoke! I've been in a jam this, week getting The 1
Herald out a day earlier in order to Slip off for a brief !
vacation. In fact. I've forgotten to write something about ;
the proposed street paving project. Anyway, there's j ,
a lot of people "agin" it, while there are a lot "fer” it. j
I'm "fer” it and here's reminding all who are also "fer" i
it to vote that way July 27, And incidentally any who .
want to vote and are Hot on the registration books
should see the registrar in their respective wards be- j
tween July ti and 13. This is important, for the writer
senses the fact that there w ill he no little opposition to ; i
the proposed improvements and favorable votes will he J
. necessary to offset the negative votes.
