A LIFT FOR TODAY Let not the sun go down upon your wrath. —Ephesians 4:26. God can forgive us only as we forgive others. O God, give us a new measure of Thy reconciling spirit and make us more kindly in what we say and do to.-others. Name Chakge^oming'? There’s plenty of evidence suggesting that the U. S. Department, of Agriculture might be in line for' a name dfmnge. Anyway, for the past few years, the department hasn’t been acting like it’s happy with the present tag. The trend seems to be toward developing an image more closely associated with consumers than farmers. Here are a few examples: —ln 1962 the Administration reported ly gave serious consideration to a pro posal to rename thfcDepartment of Agri culture the “Department of Food and Agriculture.'’ iti " : —The major farm. bjll.enact'Kl in 1962 was titled the ‘Food and Agriculture Act of 1962.” —ln 1962, George L. Mehren was named Assistant Secretary of Agriculture for marketing and consumer services. —The following year. Secretary Free man announced the formation of a new Consumer and Marketing Service in USDA “to give stronger emphasis to con sumer services within the Department.” —The major agricultural bill enacted in 190 5 was called the and Agri culture Act of 1965.” The 1965 Yearbook of Agriculture featured a collection of items beamed at the general public and bearing the title of ‘Consumers All”. It's not hard to guess what the depart ment is up to. With its tremendous ex penditures and vast army of workers, an urban public could easily get weary of keeping up the flow of tax dollars. So the name might be changed to protect the ‘innocent”. Repealing HumarrNature Right now, the gnited Slates is busily engaged in the creation of the most gigan tic structure of public welfare that the world has ever seen. The resources which we have at hand to turn over to govern ment for distribution to groups* of citizens entitled to benefits under ever-broadening welfare legislation, are immense. Os course, all this weajth-was created under a different philosophy which put a pre- mium on individual initiative and provid ed the incentive of rewarding-the produc tive pcirplc and enterprises. The history of this country should have demonstrated one facte That all men simply are not equal,'never were and never will be. An editorial in the Colo rado Trumpet and the Public Ledger points out that: “The Declaration of In dependence asserts that all men are cre ated equal, but it says nothing about the duty of a government to maintain citizens at an equal level thereafter.” A good example of welfare state “equality” is provided by the following: “Two families living side-by-side dramatic exam ple of government favoritism. The one with an income of $3,100 a year is en titled to special tutarssahdrinedical check ups for their four-to-six-yesr-old children, summer jobs or free sammer -seminars on college campuses for their high school kids, and Youth Corps benefits for the school dropouts. They reap numerous Other special privileges as well, but the family next door with an income, of $3,300 a year gets nothing.” _ . As taxes go up aad 0 ifcwnvin value, it becomes more ana more' appar l ' ent that the superwfffare state may bank rupt us, but it cannoff ever make us equal —except perhaps in the sharing of uni versal national poverty. Man, as a general -rule^thinks well of himself. . - J. * —' tyft It’s easy to find an excuse for delaying hard work. / El jL/Jearc/ Os Seen Coming back on the job Monday after a week’s vacation at the beach was rea son for a hectic week for yours truly, for it seemed as though just about every thing worked backward, which makes me believe that after a vacation a fellow needs just about another week to rest up. However, last week at the beach was just about as perfect as one could ask so and that included fishing. In fact fishing was so good two of the days that Anne Jenkins and Ollie Goodwin said they didn’t really enjoy fishing so very much because most of the time was consumed by taking fish off the hooks and baiting up again. And speaking about pier fish ing, most of the time there’s more women fishing than men and always a gang of youngsters. The latter, for the most part, throw over their lines at any old place and what gets a fellow’s goat is that they pull in fish when a lot of others can’t even get a bite. Then another goat getter is when bites are few and far be tween and a fellow happens to pull in two or three fish at sort of an isolated spot on the pier, it looks like the whole she-bang of fishermen flock at that one place so that it is just about impossible to throw out a line without crossing about two or three others. And speaking about ladies fishing, if there’s any more avid pier fisherman than Irma Allsbrook, I’d like to know who he or she is. She fishes early and late—if the fish are biting or not. Though three of us one day caught 2SB fish from about 8 A. M. to 2 P. M., here’s one who gets more recreation and downright contentment by sitting in a boat in our local creeks and watch for the cork to go down —that is if there’s no yellow flies around to pester a person half to death. o Just cannot refrain from telling about an incident one one of the fishing piers one day last week. I noticed a certain fellow passing me several times, looking me in the eye, but not saying a word. Later this fellow asked, “Are you the edi tor of The Chowan Herald?” I told him that was my job for matly years but that I’m now' relegated to setting type for The Herald. “Well,” he said, “I thought you were Buff, but said to myself Buff must be a much older man than you ap pear to be. But when I saw you load up and light that pipe, I felt sure you were Buff and I got up enough nerve to ask you.” The fellow was Jay Haskett, an Edenton boy who left some 30 years ago to work and live in Portsmouth and I do not recall having seen him since he left. It was sort of a Haskett family reunion, for with Jay was his wife and Mr. and Mrs. Carlton Haskett of Rochester, In diana, who are spending a three weeks’ vacation at Nags Head —'yep. they all were fishing, too. The only ones lacking for a complete family reunion were Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Haskett, who had rented their cottage for the week. It was very nice to meet the Haskett brothers and their wives, and they were apparently en joying the beach as much as we were. o Here’s one who was very sorry Sunday that I could not eat two dinners at about the same time. Mrs. Bill Davis and her daughters had their usual birthday dinner for Bill and due to being away, we were not informed about it until dinner was just about ready at the Bufflap home. I did, however, go to Bill’s house to offer my congratulations upon beginning an other milestone in his journey of life and while there I just had to go in the kit chen where the table was laden with many kinds of tempting food. What “marred” the feast was a huge platter of smoked ham, which Bill prepared him self. right in the middle of the table. De spite urgent urging that I join in the meal, I just had to turn down the invi tation, for not to eat at home after the meal was prepared could have caused an awful argument. Anyway, one of Bill’? daughters fixed up a few honest-to-good ness ham biscuits (with more ham than biscuit) which I took home for “dessert.” -O I see that a baseball game will be played on Hicks Field Friday night at 8 o’clock. The Edenton Athletic Club’s team will cross bats with the Sandy Point team from Windsor. Here’s hoping a large crowd turns out to see the game, but times have changed in Edenton so far as baseball is concerned. Time was when near about the whole bloomin’ town went to a baseball game. o- Margaret E. Stiffler, who lives at Johnstown, Pa., renewed her subscription THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, JULY 28, 1966. to The Herald this week and had this in part to say: “Please renew my sub scription for another year. Sorry to be late but with ■the temperature in the 90’s who remembers what? Glad to see that Edenton is get ting some new industry. Would miss the paper even though I have to wonder who I’m reading about. Say hello to Kate tell her I like her column very much, especially f the poems.” o Edenton has lost another very nice family in that Mel Parham and his fam ily on Wednesday moved to Asheville, where Mel has accepted a position. Here’s one who regrets their leav ing and I believe I voice the sentiments of a host of Edenton friends. Here’s best of luck to them up them thar hills. IJuhltr paraiir Continued from Page One of $3,963,508 to 101 programs at a cost of $5,151,000. Totaling all these costs to gether produces for the OEO such “dramatic comparisons” as $6,463,508 for 1964-65 and $13,410,358 for 1965-66 —a round 100 per cent increase. But that is not all. Vari ous other anti-poverty pro grams, such as Youth Corps, Job Corps, etc., cost the tax payers an additionad $20,118,- 761 or about $33.5 million for the whole she-bang. Unfortunately, the OEO news release does not always give the number of individ uals helped in the various programs; so it is not easy to arrive at a per diapita ex penditure. It did, however, reveal that the $5,151,000 spent in Head Start program* had helped some 25,270 ‘young sters. Well, that breakg-zlown to just about S2OO which is pretty eSggnsive baby sitting for the surrfmer.

All is not ; lost. We have gained experience. While the future is un certain, “past performance and an amazing degree of success do indicate,” in the words of the OEO release, “that significant inroads on the symptoms, causes and remedies of the poverty cycle ■ have been made. The experi , mental period is over. Hence forth experience, and with it the cure, is the keyword, i The turning point—the tide— has changed. North Carolina is gaining on its war on pov erty.” That’s what it said. ★ WEEKEND SPECIALS * -« Round Steak■ 79c Chuck Steaks»49c .Jfjnjjy Fresh Ground Hamburger 31 SI.OO wk 1 0 JOE THORUD SMOKED L 1 A A (Agent’s Name) of Sausage j “Women pay frozen tropi-cal I less than men FRENCH drinks I for insurance ” FRTFS GRAPE, PINEAPPLE I Nationwide Insurance A ORANGE, rates for women are sub 2-LB.
