Another Job Well Done
Today we salute Perquimans Coun
ty and the local Red Cross Committee
for another job well done. Accord
ing to reports made Tuesday more
than 100 residents appeared at the
Red Cross Bloodmobile to donate a
pint of Mood, which may, someday in
the near future, save a life.
It was all a part of the Red Cross
program to buUd up a blood bank in
hospitals throughout the Tidewater
area, for the purpose of supplying
blood to patients, free of charge, in
need of transfusions.
Some of the individuals who appear
ed to donate blood, though willing,
did not do o for various reasons on
the part of the doctors and nuraes,
but these will have an opportunity to
do so at a later date.
A lot of hard work was necessary
to make this first visit of the Blood
mr.bile a success and this accomplish
ment on the part .of the local Red
Cross Committee, and those assisting
this committee, deserve the praise of
the entire community.
Buy Seals To Help
Fight Tuberculosis
While the fight against tuberculosis
has made great progress, medical
experts expect that new drugs will
make possible the abolition of the di
sease, we should not overlook the fact
that nearly 50,000 persons die every
year from tuberculosis. ,
The disease is the seventh greatest
cause of death in the United States.
This should emphasize the import
ance of the annual sale of Christmas
seal 3 for the purpose of securing
funds with which to accelerate the
fight on the great White (Plague. The
National Tuberculosis Association
estimates the annual cost of tubercu
losis at $350,000,000. They think
that a disease, known to be curable
and preventable, should be prevented
by a nation as alert as the United
States and, when it occurs, should be
cured.
When residents of Perquimans
.County buy Christmas seals, they
contribute their money to the great
undertaking.

Education Widens
Its Scope
V , eaaaaaaaaaeBjaaam
The process of education in Per
quimans County has made tremend
ous strides since the ancient days
wnen the "three K's" were supposed1 to
include the curriculum of a modern
school.
While it is true that the funda
mental problem of our institutions of
learning is to give the student a prc
fktency in the use of so-called tools
of the brain and, if pursued long
enough, to acquaint the mind with
the broad outlines of man s progress
from savagery to civilization, the
scope of the modern school has been
widely expanded.
Not only are our schools expected
to perform the rudimentary task of
educating the pupils, but in addition,
train them for democratic processes,
to teach them to get along with
other human beings, instruct them in
a trade for their economic livelihood
and, in addition, take the task of the
home and church in the development
of morality and conscience. 1
When one considers the, vastly-extended
ramifications of the process
es of teaching, there k no occasion
to wonder at the increased cost, of
"education." Nevertheless, when we
think of the expense involved, : we
should also bear in mind ' that ig
norance is the most expensive luxury
ever enjoyed by careless people. '
The aims of education should be to
convert the mind into a living foun
tain, and not a reservoir. That which
la filled by merely pumping in, will
be emptied by pumping out
