Hertford Cooiity Hofald PUBLISHED WEEKLY BY Vinsoa h Parker J. ROY PARKER Editor JAS. S. VINSON Manager SUBSCRIPTION PRICE: One Year $1.60 Si* Months .76 Three Months .40 ADVERTISING RATES: Very reasonable and made known on request En edas second-class matter Feb ruary 25th, 1910, at the post office at Ahoakie, N. C., under the Act of March 3rd, 1878. The railroad* have a ton of newsprint paper belonging to the Herald "Somewhere on Their Line". Thi? circum stance has forced us to limit the issue of this week to four pages. For this reason many communications had to be left out on this account. We hope to obtain a supply of paper in time for next week's issue. o Food Administration Matters Reports are going the rounds that government agents are soon to go into the hojnes of the farmers and other peo ple throughout the country and take their corn,-meat and other food products and distri bute them among the people as these agents see fit. Also that the government is g6ing to take charge of the banks and use all the money that is in them for governmental purpo ses. ATI such reports are abso lutely false. There is not one word of truth in them. They are started by mischief mak ers for no other purpose than to create unrest among the people who are not in a posi tion to keep well informed as to what the government is real ly trying to do. I hope that al who know these reports to be false wil use every opportuni ty they have to brand them as L mien. Perhaps it will be interest ing to the people of the Coun ty to know that nearly all the people are complying in a ve ry splendid manner with the rulings of the Food Administra tion. I should say that nine ty-five per cent of the people are complying in a perfectly saticfactory way. The mer chants responded in fine spirit when called upon to report all their customers who had bou ght flour in excess of the amo unt which the law permits, and when those who had made the purchases were notified that they must return the flour, they responded promptly and wil lingly, to a man. Only a very few are chafing under the compulsion of hav ing to buy in quantities less than they have been doing and under different conditions. This might be expected, how ever, for it is not given to all men to see anything beyond the immediate present. It is ve*y gratifying to know that the number who cannot make themselves satisfied with the present conditions and cannot fail to fall in line with the gov * ernment's purpose to conserve as far as possible the food sup ply is Quite small. Practicing wheatless days and meatless days and conserv ing food products In other way by the people of the County is saving thousand dollars of food products to feed our sol diers and the alies, thus enab ling them to do efficient ser vice fbr their country at the battle front. By joining the ranks of t> | food conserving b&TT war i I count.,,''wrj peace ant j us ao mucY ^ .... in flhiioRiAM. Brother John C. Scarbo rough died at his home in Mur freesboro, December 26, 1917, aged 76 years. In the death of Brother Sca t-borotlfch thte Masonic Fratsr nity has lost one of its bright lights, the radiance of whose Upright, just and christian life and character reflected great honor and renown upon our Order and whose high and no ble life is deserving of the high est emulation of every woulJ be true Mason. He was of that type of man, now unfortunately passing out of our midst. Schooled in the armies of Lee and Jackson, the trials and privations of those four years that tried men's souls, burned from his nature all dross and left nothing but pure gold. He was indeed a peer of those men who after the war devoted their energies to the upbuild ing and enlightenment of the State and we can never fully appreciate his great worth un til time shal clarify our visions and permit us to see from a po sition unobscured, who were the truly great. His whole life was devoted to the betterment of mankind, without regard of his material gain?indeed a true altruist. He never wearied in his efforts to better society, to elevate the iriMlfi anH broaden and bright en the intellectual and religoun horizon of every one with whom he came in contact?an educator of the highest type. Conspicous in his life's work are the many years as a mem ber of the Faculty of Wake For est College; sixteen years as Superintendent of Public In struction of the State, during which time he conceived, form ulated and put into operation the educational system of the State of which the present one is a logical and direct out growth, and twelve years as President of what is now known as Chowan College in Murfreesboro. He filled ma ny other places of honor and trust and in every instance per formed the duties thereof cour ageously, conscientously and highly inteligently. The im press of his precepts and prac tices lives of hundreds of men and women will be a lasting monument to his memory. Since early youth Brother Scarborough has been a devout member of the Baptist Church. His faith was sure, strong and unswerving. No opportunity was allowed by him to pass by to serve his Lord and Master. As a Mason, he was just and upright, exemplifying the high ideals of the Fraternity. In the words of Brother Hackett: "As Hiram slept, the widow's sch), So doth our brother take his rest. Life's battles fought, life's duties don His faults forgot, his worth confess ed. So let him sleep that dreamless sleep, Our sorrows clustering round his head. Be comforted ye loved who weep. He lives with God, 'he is not dead" Therefore be it resolved: 1. That we deeply deplore our loss and mourn for him who was our friend and broth er; 2 That ft ffinu of this py. pression of our esteem and love | be spread upon the records in the archives of the Lodge ; 3. That a copy be convey ed by the secretary to his be reaved family; 4. That a copy be sent to the Orphans Freind, the Bibli cal Recorder and the Hertford County Herald for publication American George Lodge No. 17 Murfreesboro, N. C. Stanley Winborne, R. H. Gary, N. M.

"We are mighty glad to be able to get Mantone here, be lieve me," said the Mantone Medical Director.
