4 Rector Writes Booh
About His Great
, ' Grandfather
The Rev. George B. Holmes, rec
tor of «Saint Paul’s Episcopal
; Church, has written a book about
jp- his great-grandfather entitled “The
f Life and Contributions of George
I Frederick Holmes, Scholar, Teacher
I and Writer”.
It all began when he took week-
I end classes at Virginia Polytechnic
| Institute in Virginia and used a
\. sketch of his ancestor for a Master
1} of Science thesis. He was asked to
4 add several chapters under various
| titles and the thesis became a book.
Mr. Holmes will appear before a
hoard of six men and women Thurs
day in Blacksburg, Virginia, for of
ficial acceptance of the work.
The research actually required 13
years and involved nearly 200 peo
pie, necessitated visiting 17 li
braries from Mississippi to New
. York City and from London to Brit
ish Guiana. Mr. Holmes has per
■ sonally done all required research
except what was found in George
town, B. G.
His great-grandfather is known
as the American Father of Soci
ology, author of a number of text
books known as the Holmes’ Read
ers, Histories, Spellers, Grammars,
etc., and was a collaborator with
such men as Maury, Venable, Mc-
Guffey, and a correspondent and
" acquaintance with many well-known
men and women of the nineteenth
century,
' Actual publication and eventual
release will depend upon arrange
ments Mr. Holmes hopes to secure
from a joint responsibility with
Duke University in Durham, North
Carolina, and the University of Vir
ginia in Charlottesville, Virginia,
who currently own most of the
available manuscript and other
original matter.

L-,
Humpty-Dumpty is no tragedy
at all if he falls into the hands of
a homemaker. For an egg is both
good eating and good nutrition.
March has been designated as
“Egg Month”. We should look for
new recipes and try to serve eggs
in many new ways during March.
From the dietitian's standpoint,
an egg is a combination of proteins
(all the amino acids needed for
growth and body maintenance); es
sential fats; vitamins A, B1 (thia
mine), 'B2 (riboflavin), niacin, D,
E, and K; and the minerals—iron,
phosphorus and calcium. All this
... in one of the neatest food pack
ages ever designed.
From the gourmet’s standpoint,
the egg is indispensable to meals
and meal preparation. .It is served
not only as the main dish, but is
an important ingredient in a myri
ad of prepared dishes.
Eggs make fine dishes for break
fast, lunch, dinner or later suppers.
They make healthy children, con
tented husbands,-and
guests. • Serve some eveVy day.
Eggs will be an unending pleas
ure with the wide variety suggest
ed in the modem homemaker’s
cookltook.
Why not try these new recipes on
your family during the month of
March ?

Phflip S. McMullan
Speaker At Rotary
Philip McMullan was in charge
of last week’s Rotary program, at
which time he gave a hriefahistory
of the Fifth Battalion in’ World
War I. His remarks had to do with
the organization of the outfit at
Camp Belvoir, Va., training and
equipping for overseas service and
activities in France from 1917 to
1919.
Mr. McMullan’s outfit returned
home May 20, 1919, landing at
Brooklyn, and in two days, Mr. Mc-
Mullan said, the company officially
disappeared from the army lists
and its members scattered to the
four corners of America.
“The outfit had about a year and
a half of perhaps the most'varied
military service that ever came to
a unit of the American Army,” said
Mr. McMullan. “At the front, in
the lines of communication down on
the Loire—-lumbering, roadbuilding
on two continents, in contact with
all service branches, the 15th com :
pany had its share.”
Errol Flynn and Jack Hardison,
Edenton seniors, attended the
meeting as Junior Rotarians. Col.
Jay McDonald was also inducted in
to the club by John A. Holmes.
LIONS MEET MONDAY
