THIS WEEK’S BIBLE THOUGHT HE IS IN.HIS KINGDOM NOW: And he said, unto Jesus. Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom*—Luke 23:42. . An Example The Herald holds brief for the top Na/.i Germans who. are doomed to die as .the result of their crimes aea nst mankind, hut if ..does so, m a pity that *o niiich brains and ability should meet such a fate. Hal all of ;his brains been directed tow aid better purposes, this aiight be a better world today. Instead, the iitfluence of ;hese \cry at*ie :.nenwas the slave of selfishness and a desire for. power, no. matter what, the consequences, and as the result these men will hang at the end of a rope or be 'the victim* ■ f a tiring squad. Others, wifi, serv- long sentences in prison during which, obviously, ,i, aid usefulii( *- to mankind will he dorit apt.. Had these men been as thtioh interested, m the better things of life., they might have had a place aiuoijg a : 0 r*. ami their fate should be a striking lesson to all. There are many people who are selfish and seek power but. of -course. .because of their lack of in fluence, on a much smaller- scale, the principle is the game, however,- ami the guilt is.jifst as great. Wealth, piDver and; influence at the expense of the sut’eritigvt others is of little value, even if it does not reach the proportion of plunking nations into war as was the i Case with , the high German. Nazis. I best: Nazis should. ] . die and their fate should be a lesson to all other leaders to direct their influence on the side pt justice l and right ever: if the reward d<w*s not see.ni as great. Too Full For Words With the Town: of Edenton presenting t'omdr, Bert H. Creighton a silver service iii appreciation of his friendship and cooperation while stationed in Edenton. coupled with the presentation of a beautiful sword I ties ■fay night by civilians and .'Navy personnel at. the Eden ,, \.,v a i Aar Station, he has reason to leave Edenton khowing full well that he.is leaving behind many friends as he departs for the West Coast. In 'accepting both gifts. ' 'omdr. Creighton found him ,3elf unable to expfess: in words his.appreciation for the . pres, lias and the. thoughts i>ack *■ t them, lie knows that ;b, p. ..pie iii/Jxdenion learned t:d love and admire hit" vhlie ui Kdentoii and In turn he has becoiiie so at tached to Edenton and its surroundings that it was not easy for him to say "good-bye . He will ever he re irembered by many E.ientonians and men who were under his e iminand. and it should not lie a difficult pre diction t,, say that lie will always remember and cherish recollections of the time he spent in bur little emn ■n unity.

C„ iHI R.SDAY, OCTOBER 111, 1946. j Heard & Seen! By “Buff” j j •U—•—— • *» I Charlie Newcomb, who has been a regular reader of j I The Herald ever since he came to Edenton to work at the base, says he derives a great deal of pleasure in f reading small town newspapers. He has. in his travels, ! neen located in small towns and one of the first things j he does is to get a copy of the local paper. Friend New- | omb gave The Herald a hew name, for at Comdr. Bert | Creighton's farewell party Tuesday night he said. "I'll j oc in tow n Thursday morning to get a copy of ‘Bufflap's : Diary'." Anyway, Mr. and Mrs. Newcomb's stay ini Edenton is very much limited, for when the base is urned over to the town, he'll be going to some other | job, ouch to the regret of a lot of friends they have »iade while living in Edenton. .toe Cheshire was scheduled to come down from Ral I •igh Tuesday to go fishing with Cal; Kramer. Well, cou all know what happened—it rained like the dickens, ; When the boys at the post office learned that Joe was 1 I 'otning Rodney Harrell said to Cal: "For gosh sake*. ' an’t you keep him home until we get through with out ; peanuts?" A local, merchant has a pretty good idea about a boy j Working for, him. 'When 1 don’t hear.his -feet.'shuffling j iround." he said, "1 know he's either asleep or snitch ing something." Eden toil's colored high school foot ba i I team is schedui - 1 ed to play a game with the I’. W. Moore school of Eli j zabeth City on Hicks Field tonight (Thursday) at Si o'clock. The local team has won one and lost a game thus far this season. s<> that they'll be trying to add another^victory,- 1 don't know if they will or not, but .here's . betting that cheering squad will be on the job, -ticking tip enough fuss to confound the hoys from Eli zabeth City. They’re far ahead of the white school when t conies to cheering at a football game. ———o Although Guy Boyce has a hard time getting help to t eeep. Cherry’s Restaurant open: all night, he managed j o be open shortly after a, o’clock the other morning I when a few of us'got up early to go fishing and hunt-j mg. Craving a cup of coffee and a: bite to eat, we paid ; Cherry a visit. When asking for orders. I replied,"Give! ■ ne a cup of coffee and a ham and egg sandwich." In j i rather surprised tone. Cherry replied, "Did you bring; Hong any ham ',’" Well, 1 took the same kind of sand- . ! -vich only the ham was sort of imaginative. The white football team should he stronger for the ! 1 game Friday night with Windsor on Hicks Field, for 1 j unlerstand Sammy Ross and Henry Alien Dowell will pe back in uniform. Sammy, a World War veteran, was , i star back a few years ago and with a little, more 1 ; veight should add considerably to the driving power. 1 Henry Allen, over (i feet tall, was a splendid pass re- ; reiver and should add strength to that department. Any- ! way. we want to, see the Aces win .a game and they ' might as well do it Friday night. With the Chowan County Wildlife Club's fish fry I 1 scheduled t" be held only a few hours front the, time this ( s written, my appetite is gradually becoming keener. . •f course, at this writing I’m unable to say how: many j , Will attend the affair, but quite a few. even to Jim Cates,. i •xpressed their intention to be on hand. All I can say t s that th« fish were bought, for if any of the group ' were supposed to catch the fish for the occasion, some one would be going hungry. I’m dod a bad told, but ' I'm figuring on eating a few ..f the things even if they 1 taste more like a hot dog than fish. ■' itions to be of greatest benefit, for in numbers there is J strength when i.t conies to asserting the town's or couh- :- y's -wishes'' in any particular matter. The Farm Bureau desires to. secure f> 1S members and \ o date less than half that number have signed up. The 1 luota of f>lß is not too great a number for Chowan i 'ounty and easily that many people should be interested n an organization having for its- primary purpose the 1 welfare of the farmer, ■ w While no figures are available for members in the II 'hamber of Commerce and Merchants Association. it is understood that many, and even former members, have: not;signed up. There is no quota set for this drive, but j it is hoped to secure enough members to be able to em ploy a full time secretary. Without the cooperation of Edenton merchants and business people, as well as in lividuals, this very necessary organization cannot, func tion and, of course. Edenton will necessarily be the loser. ! Both organizations deserve a strong membership and f unbiased consideration is given to their value, many should rally to the efforts being put forth to secure members, and join without further delay. v By GENE j “Why the Muzzle, Runt?” , “Me Brudder's Sealin' Me T'buy a Pie” R.C.
