Public Parade Continued from Page 1 cost to his own increasing paycheck...or, indeed, exactly why his own paycheck is going to have to increase in order to buy his own output or his neighbors! Who is a middleman? Is “profit” a four-letter word? Some say Capitalism is passe and so is free enterprise. Still others believe government alone is going to keep the “American Way” going strong. So, perhaps in another sense, we are economic-illiterates. The American economic system, for all of its faults, has helped establish a standard of living neither possible nor probable under other systems. Sure it can be improved. But not through ignoranee. It can be improved through*an understanding of the existing-system. But as a nation, we are;ignorant of the economics and mechanics of food production and distribution. The tfarm-City program worked last year to correct that problem. In 1979, we continue the theme for the Farm-City movement: “Farm And City - Partners In Economic Progress With Price In The Past And Faith In The Future”. Therie's A Difference • * Finishing touches are being applied so the new Chowan County Courthouse on Broad Street. Without unforeseen difficulties a formal opening will be held late in January, 1980, with' the first scheduled Superior Court term the week of February 4. This is a project many along the Public Parade didn’t think they would ever see began, let alone finished. And all of them are not members of the bar. For the past 15 years, to our certain knowledge, judges and grand juries have waxed eloquent about the need for new facilities. Now that the demise is on the horizon, the idea of moving a block north is tearing at the heartstring of many. Judge Albert Cowper of Kinston, for example, made a special request to the N. C. Chief Justice to assign him to Chowan County on his last term before retirement. As it would happen, something went wrong and he had to hold court in another district before his “time ran out.” Judge James Strickland of Jacksonville has a particular fondness for this area. While the facilities might leave much to be desired, he says the fringe benefits offset any inconveniences. He has gone so far as to say he would welcome permanent assigned to Rezoning Bid Is Defeated Continued from Page 1 enterprise system is the American way. Councilman Hornthal said the local zoning ordinance does not provide economic protection, nor legislates competition. A few minutes later, Councilman Burroughs described himself as a "refugee” from shopping centers said the council cannot sit back and let economic interests govern themselves. Councilman Harry Spruill said no board should have the power to interfer with private enterprise. He said he supported downtown revitalization, waterfront improvement and other work in the Edenton Historic District when it wasn’t popular throughout the community. He said the council should only consider the best use of the land. In a brief statement, Charles 0. Tysor declared that “competition is the spice of life.” After the first vote, Brumsley stated that the “other side is an alter nate” sought in case the first proposal failed. A spokesman for the K- Mart development said his firm held an option on 10-acres on each side of the highway and expressed strong feeling that a motel could be attracted if the property is rezoned. Again, the motion to rezone failed. Earlier, Mrs. Lena M. Leary, clerk of court, administered the oaths of office to Mayor Harrell, Councilman Hornthal, Hollowell and Hampton, and Lee. Dr. Hornthal was re-elected mayor pro tem without opposition. At the suggestion of W. B. Gardner, town administrator, resolutions of appreciation were voted for Jesse L. Harrell, retiring councilman, and A. B. Harless, Jr., treasurer. Neither sought re-election in the November 6 Municipal Election. The Chowan Herald (usps 106-380) P. O. Box 207, Edenton, N.

North Caroling, Thursday, Novemblr 8, 1979 Routine Cases Are Heard Routine matters were handled Tuesday morning in the regular weekly session of Chowan County District Court. Judge John T. Chaffin presided and Asst. Dist. Atty. Mike Johnson prosecuted the docket. Action taken included: William Potter Bootwright, drunk driving, 90 days', suspended upon payment of SIOO fine and costs. Notice of appeal entered. Arthur Lloyd Norfleet, the First Judicial District. Now comes Judge N. B. Barefoot of Wilmington. He has just recently discovered the Public Parade. Nevertheless, he told jurors Tuesday that he likes holding court in the Chowan County Courthouse. “I will have the privilege of holding the last scheduled term in this historic courthouse,” he said. Adding, “this is the oldest courthouse in the U. S. in continuous use.” Regardless of all the “bitching and complaining” there is something special about the Chowan County Courthouse. A man who is sentenced to prison from this historic edifice might have other feelings. This could be called a difference between the sentencee and the sentenceor. Building Blocks Fish fries are in vogue. We happen to have spent all day a couple weeks ago going to one in Northeastern North Carolina that had been cancelled because of the inavailabity of product. This will not be the case Saturday at Unit 3 of Edenton- Chowan Rescue Squad where fish plates will be sold to buy building blocks for expansion of the headquarters. From 11 A.M. to 6 P.M. people from along the Public Parade and throughout the area can get a real bargain out behind Earl Smith’s Store at Rocky Hock. For $2.50 per plate one can get a good meal and after the expenses are paid all the profits will g toward the building fund. Edenton-Chowan Rescue Squad, with three units, is one of the genuine success stories in these parts. They give more to the community than they receive in financial compensation and words of thanks. The volunteers are dedicated beyond description. Plans for expansion of the Unit 3 headquarters is not something for the members, it is something for the entire community. Building blocks are costly in these times, but a little help here, and a little more there can turn dreams into realities. A plate or two of fish can go a long way. speeding, called and failed.
