A LIFT FOR TODAY Blessed are the meek; for. they shall inherit the earth.—Matthew 5:5. It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels.— Augustine. Our loving Heavenly Father, may we through repentance and humility see the heavenly coun tenance of our Saviour. You Can’t Have The Cake And Eat It, Too! A drastic change in the schedule of trash pnd garbage collections is scheduled to go into effect in Edenton Wednesday, July 1. For many years the Edenton Street Depart ment has attempted to cover the entire town every day in collecting trash and garbage. This schedule has been carried out except in some instances when equipment was broken down or when there was absolutely more trash and garbage along the streets than could be collected in one day. The town has grown and there obviously is more trash and garbage put out to be col lected. So that the situation at present is that if every day collections are to be con tinued over the entire town, means that more equipment will be needed plus the fact that more men will have to be employed in order to properly perform all of the town's work. So the action taken by Town Council to cur tail collections was a move in the direction of economy, and had some bearing on being able to maintain the SI.OO tax rate, which was approved by the Councilnien at their special budget meeting held Tuesday night. The change in schedule has been considered a number of times during the years by Town Council, but because of opposition, no action was taken until* recently. The new schedule will, of course, be un welcome on the part of some citizens. How ever, Edenton has been the only one, or possi bly among the precious few' towns in North Carolina which still has tiash and garbage collected every day. It is hoped Edenton citizens will cooperate to the fullest in carrying out the new sched ule, which appears in an advertisement in this issue of The Herald. Edenton is growing and With this growth various changes must, of course, be made. It is nice to have trash and garbage collected every day, but it is also nice to have a tax /rate of SI.OO instead bl say SJ.SQ. We-can * not .have our cake and eat it. too. ' ;£•. 1 . i —-W ' Vacations Are For Fun This is the season when ‘ vacation - ’ becomes a household word, when dreams and discuss ions turn into reservations and road maps. The traditional toss-up between mountains and shore went out with the Model T. Mod ern transportation makes the world your oys ttr or are you allergic to shellfish? Still, vacation plans are formed as much by physi cal considerations as by financial ones. Certain locations or activities are out if. say, Junior has hay fever, or Judy gets sea i'ijMt .’even in the bath tub. Vacation is no time to be sick or to tempt fate. ■ Because approximately one out of every five households has a member with some form of cardiovascular ailment including high blood pressure the North Carolina Heart Association offers some suggestions to help you make vacation time safe hnd pleasant for all members of the family. ‘the person with a chronic ailment should visit his physician before a vacation. Tell th£ doctor about your vacation plans, where ,yqu intend to go, how you intend to get there. Fitfr example, if yon ’re flying: l most commer cial airlines have pressurized cabins, and can offer special diets or oxygen if needed, but it’s bpst tp make, sure in advance. Climate and altitude are two important fac tors to keep in mind, the North Carolina Heart Association says. High altitudes, with their ottygen-poor air, can make persons With some heart and respiratory ailments feel miserable. Heat and humidity add to the work of the heart because the cardiovascular system plays aln important part in helping the body to ad just to weather extremes. If yoa find yourself at a high altitude or il an excessively hot and humid area, rest a few days give fetor body a chance to adjust to its sarrroundings before you start '' ll ■- mmmm**,*,* & Seen U|| By Buff Earl Smith’s store in the Rocky Hock sec tion was, without doubt, the most popular place in Chowan County Tuesday night. Earl put on a special, which was his annual fish fry special, and folks bv the hundreds from all over the county were on hand to enjoy Earl’s hospitality. As Usual a group of Earl’s friends helped to put on the fish fry among whom was Willie Saunders, who made himself gen erally useful. Then the Rev. Thurman All red was all diked out With an apron and a cook’s hat as he watched and turned the corn bread. Charlie Peele did his stuff in mixing the cornmeal, jabbing his hand and artn far down in the lard can so that the stuff Was properly mixed, Gus Bunch, usually on the eating end of feeds, was busy chopping onions for the cornbread. Then Sid White and a group of other men were busy as a dog scratching fleas in frying the fish. A group of ladies served the long lines of hungry peo ple and a few boys were kept busy pulling caps off soft drink bottles. Obviously, all who attended the fish fry enjoyed the annual affair, but none were any happier than Earl himself, who milled through the crowd with a smile from ear to ear. The only unfortu nate angle to the fish fry, so far as I’m con cerned. was that there was a special meeting of Town Council at about the same time the fish fry was going on. Os course, I shoiild have remembered that a special meeting was called at the regular Town Council meeting, but usually the gals in the town office remind me and they failed to remind me Tuesday. It was a case of forgetting pure and simple and I hope 111 not be charged with being derelict in my duty. Which emphasized the fact that as a fellow gets older his memory becomes shorter. Anyway, I missed Mayor John MitchenCr’s midnight helping of ice cream, but I got a belly full of fish out at Earl Smith’s store and so did a lot of other folks. I was wondering why some of the Town Councilmen were not seen in line to be served at the fish fry. o Leroy Heninger was among the group of National Guardsmen who returned home over the week after spending two weeks in train ing at Fort Bragg. Leroy told me they under went strenuous field training, but that they also were obliged to engage in other forms of fighting. The latter had to do with combat ting red bugs and ticks. He hapjjened to bring home one of the ticks, but that tick is now “daid”. o——— Mrs. Stanton Harrell of Route 2, is con vinced that Herald advertising pays and so does C. R. Ward of Route 1. Hertford. Mrs. Harrell last week advertised that she had some puppies she would give away and it wasn’t long until they were all gone. She said it was the best 60-cent investment she ever made. should have had a dozen puppies tp give Jrfay instead of only six. Then Mr, Ward advertised some farm equipment for. sale and some of this was sold through Herald! advertising, and he placed another ad in this week’s Herald. o Here’s one who joined the Bermuda shorts gang over the week-end. Despite spindle legs, protruding blood veins and scarred shins,! the extremely hot weather convinced me that it was made comfortable to wear shorts in stead of long pants. Os course, I didn’t ven ture far from home—especially during the daylight hours. o And speaking about the hot weather, the Rev. E, C. Shoaf, pastor of the Methodist: Church, announced Sunday that he wanted; his congregation to be as comfortable as possi ble and that it was not a “sin” for men to! take off their coats during the service if they so desired. Which means, fellows, that we’ll have to be wearing.a clean shirt and one which has no slits in it. o • 1 Thanks to my friend E. F.
