To the Founder of the Herald
To the memory of the founder
and long time Editor of this paper,
we dedicate this issue of the Herald.
And, it is with a feeling of great
sorrow and inward pain that we
have to perform this providential
duty. Little did we think that the
first issue'of the Hep-aid printed on
a newly installed press would have
the sad duty of chronicling the
death of its founder and former
editor. What had been forecasted
as an event of rejoicing has been
suddently transformed, by the
working of God, into a aad and
solemn occasion.
It is hardly necessary to introduce
to you the subject of this sketch;
you?the readers of the Herald?
have known him and have had a
weekly message come into your
home from this man for nearly six
years. But for him, the people of
Hertford County would not have
enjoyed the weekly visit of the
County newspaper. He was the
man who first gave to Hertford
County a permanent, substantial,
and lasting newspaper. Although ,
for several years he labored to pub- .
Hah this paper at a distinct loss ]
' financially, yet he never for once j
halted in his efforts and teal to
make it a permanent institution.
inougn you may Know dm writ
ings, we feel that this office and its
Manager and Editor know him even
better! Surely, our* is a more per
sonal touch. His life was alwayi
close to us, and we feel his loss even
the more on Ibis account. James
8. Vinson for almost six years was
closely associated with the deceased, '
acting as printer for him, and later '
as half owner and partner for one
month. He has also been thrown '
with him in his home life, having (
either roomed or boarded at his '
home for a much longer time. It
was under his tutelage, acting w
the deceased's employ, that the '
manager of this paper came to oc- '
cupv his present position. Roy
Parker, Editor of the Herald, also '
owes practically all of his newspaper
experience to the deceased, having
worked with him for a long time
before succeeding him as Editor.
We, the Manager and Editor, owe !
a great measure of our ex perience
in newspaper work to him, ^nd we
freely give up this column to a tii
bate to his memory. It is only a
small part of what we would do.
A peculiar co-incident connected '
with the death of our friend was the 1
installation of new equipment in <
the Herald office, both coming to- 1
gather. Keen anticipation awaited '
the expected arrival of the deceased
on Saturday, having previously com
municated with this office that he i
would spend last week end at home. ]
But, the hand of Providence pre- <
vented him from viewing the more ]
modern office. <
Sad though it may be, we freely ;
and with a sense of obligation dedi- i
cate this oolumn to our friend, ben- ?
?factor, and co-worker, Walter Glen j
Smith, deceased. -

HELP THIs IAB T. 1. C.
A WAR WORK FUND!
/
The Nation it Asked to Raise
$35,000,000 for thia fond
in the immediate future.
Hertford County is a part
of the Nation. Will we do
our duty? Let's answer it
by oversubscription!
A nation-wide campaign is being
conducted thia week in behalf of
the War Y. M. C. A. Work. Due to
the late notice of the part Hertford
County is expected to play in this
campaign, a gasoline campaign in
the County, and poor phone service,
which prevented a haaty organiza
tion, the active campaign for thia
County will be waged next week,
beginning Sunday night at Winton.
We are quite anxious that the
oeople become informed as to the
nature and scope of this War Y. M.
C. A. work. There seems to be no
general knowledge as to what it
really is, a good many having the
idea that the campaign is only in
the interest of looU Y. M. C. A.
work. It is the work being done
l!_i. 1 L.iL
101 our own euimteu men, wui m
home and abroad) from a moral,
physical and mental standpoint; and
from the standpoint, for the men
of oor Allies under arms, inasmuch
as possible. The work is of most
vital impoatancfe and herewith are
(riven the estimates of President
Wilson and other noted men of the
nation:
Your President says: The spirit
of our forces and the efficiency in
battle will be vitally affected by the
environment surrounding our train
ing camps;" Secretary Daniells says
"From every standpoint, military,
political, and moral; it is our duty
to protect these youths so we can
say to the mothers when the war is
over 'we return your sons as worthy
of y?ur family circle as when they
left;" General Pershing, in com
mand of our boys in' France, says;
"The work now being done by the
Y. M. C. A. for the comfort and en
tertainment of our afctdiers in France
is very important, As - an organi
sation, its moral influence is highly
beneficial. It performs a real ser
vice that makes for contentment.
I*he Y. M. C. A. has won its place
by unselfish personal'devotion to the
?oldiers' welfare and deserves
itaunch support bv the people at
Some."
As Chairman of the campaign
work for Hertford County, I make
in appeal to every man and woman
to do their patriotic duty in behalf
>f the movement. Give American
lighting men on land and sea every
shance for their lives. The more
efficient the Army ^nd Navy tne
luicker victory will come to us and
the fewer lives will be lost. The
United War Service and Y. M.. C.
i. are working to keep Ameri
ans inspired in their task. ' It is
ione at the request of the secreta
ries of the Navy and Army. Shall
the citizens of Hertford County be
termed slackers? It is left for them
to say. The county is asked to con
tribute 11600 to this cause. Surely
t population of 16,000 people, who
lave subscribed leas than $60,000
for Liberty Loan Bonds, will go far
seyond this apportionment.
The campaign will be conducted
rery largely through township ral
lies, which will be held for both
white and colored races, at 7:80
>'cIock on night, and at the places
recording to the tchadnle published
>elow.

The people are urged to attend

expect to have A SOLDIER from
some one of the training camps to

doing. We also expect to have
other speakers from a distance pres
ent.
A special appeal is made to the
committeemen of the townships?
and pastors of all churches to let
the people know the dates of the
rallies, by personal work and an
nouncement*. Next week will tell
the title, and may it be a story of
oversubscription for the County of
Hertford!
