Along The Way
By Emily Klllotte (
Looking for information in the old
volume* of THE DUPLIN TIMES
doe* not always yield results. But
most of the time some type of
information of interest is found
during a hunt through the old
papers.
Along the Way this week features
"In Old Duplin" a column that was
begun by Dallas Herring. The "In
Old Duplin" feature this week was
found in the August 16, 1951 issue of
THE DUPLIN TIMES while on a
hunt for information about Duplin
General Hospital.
Fanner* Meeting
A meeting of farmers is to be held
in Warsaw Friday evening at four
o'clock for the purpose of organizing
a Farmer's Credit Union. All farmers
are requested to be present, the
meeting will be in charge of Mr.
William R. Camp of the State
Department of Agriculture who is in
charge of the Credit Unions work.
See the notice of Mr. J.E. Williams
elsewhere in this issue.
Editorial
Where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly
to be wise. A great many men never
think fur themselves but follow the
advice of men even mure ignorant
than themselves and this is more
exemplified in the time of a political
campaign than on any other occa
sion. This is a free country and every
voter has a right to express his
opinions and vote accordingly but
from my heart I cannot see how any
man of good common sense and
unbiased judgment can fail to vote
for Woodrow Wilson, the greatest
and purest man ever sat in the
presidential chair. The laboring class
t is now enjoying the best time in the
history of our great country all due to
Woodrow Wilson, then why not give
him your undivided support in the
coming election. Our candidate for
Governor, Thomas W. Bickett is a
man whose superior cannot be
found. We still elect our entire
congressional ticket by safe majori
ties in each district, this is the way 1
see it upon the political horizon. May
our county ticket be elected by an
increased majority is my fervent
prayer. 1 had the pleasure of hearing
Major Butler, the Republican candi
date for Congress last Friday, he is a
long winded speaker and reminds
me of Cicero in Calalines conspiracy.
The Republican candidates were a
clever, social set of gen tie me r. but
are on the wrong trail and will meet
defeat in the coming November
election. Rivers, Fitzugh, Sloan and
Liston gird on your armor and enter
the f'ay, your party calls for your
services. The DUPLIN RECORD, is
doing valuable services and winning
friends daily. 1 lay dreaming last
night that the Republican party was
in suppliance bent trembling a| our
power. So strike with all your nfight
till the November fires expire.

Town Lights
This cool spell has put the light
ning bugs in charge and the town's
lightening plant out of business. The ^
mosquitoes that composed the bra^c, w
band that played for the lightning
bugs like-wise have retired for a rest
and will hibernate during the winter
in the same old ditches and tin cabs
where they slept last year.
IN OLD DUPLIN
Warsaw in 1916
The following news excerpts ap
peared in the DUPLIN RECORD
Thursday, October 12, 1916.
To the enterprising and indus
trious readers of this paper living on
or near the road from Pink Hill to
Chinquapin, permit me to say there
could be no more enterprising ideas,
than to make a complete sand-cky
road by your homes. Thus giving a
sand-clay road from Goldsboro to
Wilmington. The benefit which the
people would derive from this road
will in a few years, double and triple
the money which they spend on
naking it. Doubtedless if we don't
keep the clay road our road will be in
Ohort time worse than the one we
have, but why should this be, if you
build this road, do it with the
understanding that all who help
build it, are also to help keep it up.
By this you always will have a good
road over which to haul your
produce.
This section of Duplin is now just
in its childhood of progress, and
should be able to make some great
steps toward perfection. Before the
farmer is able to dispose of his
produce, he has to make it, and just
so before we get a good road in this
section, we will have to make it. So
lets "Get out and get under" and
make this piece of the road the best
in the county. J.W. Jackson.
Tobacco Breaks
The tobacco breaks on the floors of
the four Duplin warehouses at
Warsaw and Wallace have been
heavy for the past two weeks. Prices
are as good as at any time during the
season. Many people supposed that
the high prices had caused most of
the crop to be rushed to the market
in August and September, but the
continued heavy sales this month
indicated that there is still a good lot
of tobacco in the hands of the
growers, and that the markets for
some times to come will have plenty
of tobacco to handle.
Sweet Potatoes
The sweet potato crop is short
33'/j percent, the heavy summer
rains having damaged the crop
considerably. This is the first time in
years that Duplin County has failed
to make an abundant crop of
potatoes, the yield last year being
unusually large, with prices only
forty and fifty cents per bushel.
