“By BufT
: Edenton Rotarians are having a holiday
: so far as club meetings aTe concerned.
• Last Thursday night they had their an
: nual Christmas party at the Country Club.
• Then the meeting has been called off this
week due to Christmas, and because of
New Year’s Day, the meeting for next week
:i has been called off. Which means that the
•: next regular meeting will be held Thurs
j; day, January 7. President Tom Surratt
- hopes every Rotarian will be over the
i holiday spirit and be present at that meet
; ing. A feature at the Christmas party was
• a stringed trio with Jesse Harmon at the
| helm, which was very enjoyable. And Jesse
: C an pick a wicked banjo —just about as
j good as the guys play on the television

: It seems that there’s always something
: crops up to take the joy out of life. Here
1 we are in the midst of the Christmas sea
‘ S on—and what do we get? Just a nice
: little notice from the “Infernal” Revenue
• Service and the State Department of Reve
: nue reminding us that the quarterly pay
i ment for estimated income tax is due and
: that the payment better be sent in before
: January 15.
Then, too, the first of January is just
: around the corner and that is the month
everybody must trail to the tax office and
: give in their belongings in order to figure
: your taxes for 1971. Then, too, if you do
not list during the month a stiff penalty
• will be added. Better attend to this matter
: early as possible in order to avoid a wait
: ing in line.
o
: Just came across another one of Kate’s
: collection of recipes. Here ’tis:
FRIENDSHIP
; Take: 2 heaping cups patience; 1 heart
: full of love; 2 handfuls of generosity. Add:
A dash of laughter; a full cup of under
: standing; 2 cups of loyalty. Mix well and
! sprinkle generosity with kindness. Spread
•• this irristible delicacy over a lifetime and
serve to everybody you meet.

Dr. Lloyd Hobbs up in Blacksburg, Va.,
must know my ifavorite brand of cigars.
In the mail this week was a box of 50
cigars and to say the least some of ’em
will be smoked during the holidays while
meditating on the difference of celebrating
the Lord’s birthday alone instead of hav
: ing a companion who was always as busy
as a bee a week or two before getting ready
: for an occasion of great joy for her.

• The young folks at the Methodist Church
held a hay ride one night this week when
' they visited around and sang Christmas
carols. There was a little difference in
- this event than some years ago they
; didn’t have any hay in their vehicles.
o
And speaking about singing Christmas
; carols, a group of young people stood out
side my house the other night and sang a
: number of them. It was mighty sweet ci?
them and again emphasized the blessing
that comes from friendship. Then on Sat
urday evening another group of young
ladies came to the house with a fruit cake
box filled with all kinds of cookies, candies
and nuts. They said, ‘“we hope you will
enjoy what’s in the box.” and I’ve already
enjoyed some of the things but even the
thought back of the present is far more
relished despite the deliciousness of the
goodies. Tanks, girls!

Ten-year-old Elbridge Smith, Jr., was
just about the most surprised youngster in
Edenton (and his parents, too) the other
~ day. Back in September, 1988, when he
was eight years old, the boy caught a 6-
I pound, 8-ounce catfish and his parents en
tered it in the Boone Bait Contest in Wor
jida. They had forgotten all about the &-
cident until last Tuesday when a Urge and
attractive tackle box was received. In the
tackle box is over 88 all kinds of artificial

business in North Carolina. Worley in
noting the record, thanked the 100
County Key Bankers for their leader

He noted such projects as the annual
Farm Credit Conference, the two-week
short course in Modern Farming at N. C.
State University for over 100 young farm
leaders from every section of the state.
These scholarships are provided by the
hometown banks. Another project is the
annual land judging meet in the interest

and evaluate programs of instruction in
the area or areas assigned and will rec
ommend personnel to be employed.
The director’s duties also include rec
ommending the courses needed, working
with lay advisory committees in direct
ing proper emphasis for local programs
as well as determining and recommend
ing equipment needed for the programs.
Fry has been in the local school system
for 23 years, the last nine and one-half

Stalls joined the system when Fry be

he added.
The superintendent welcomed Stalls
back “home” and said he is looking for
ward to working with him again as prin
cipal.

unable to deliver. Anyone failing to re

find it at the local license office. “It
will take from ten days to two weeks to

of Raleigh if she does not have it.
Motor vehicle owners who have not
received their license application cards
by January Ist, should notify the De

“It will take you from ten days to two
