A TOUCH OF COUNTRY Passing tourists on U.S. 17 STATE BIRD AND FLOWER The Ned Nixons had a
may stop to view this relic of country life now sporting a refreshing idea when they decorated their mailbox with

. - If you can get the gas, a
journey.' down the country
roads of the county ; can
prove friost interesting.
Recently, just such a trip
resulted in locating many
unique, and unusual
mailboxes.
: Taking a little time, a few
materials, and a lot of
imagination, many county
residents turned their
mailboxes into eye-catching
attractions.
The old hand pump from
the farhi seemed to be the
most ' popular, while the
addictibn of various decals
is alsol catching on. . Some
have used different letter '
styles to obtain the desired
effect. Others added
unusual posts.
- As the dedicated mailmen
make their rounds through
"snow, and rain, and heat
and gloom of night," the
decorative mailboxes make
things a little brighter.
CORRECTION
The ad in last week's
Perquimans Weekly con
cerning rabies vaccinations
which began NOTICE TO
DOG 'OWNERS contained
an error. The ad read that
W. Ray White, county dog
warden-rabies inspector,
would be administering
rabies vaccinations at the
Health Department on Mon.
May 1. It should have read
Wed. May 1.
Be sure to check future
editions of the Perquimans
Weekly fqr the complete
vaccination schedule.
DINNER GUESTS
Mr. and Mrs. William B.
Amis and Julian Brinkley of
Plymouth were dinner
guests of Miss Elizabeth
Tucker and Miss Virginia

;FROM PAST TO PRESENT On cold winter mornings of
years long past, a family member would go outside to
'pump the water needed for breakfast. I doubt that they
.'thought this necessary item would end up supporting a
mailbox, but as shown here it does so nicely for E.R.
tstallings.
DOUBLE DUTY This large mailbox belonging to the
J.P. Elliott family of Rt. 4, Hertford serves a two-fold
purpose. Connected is the box for the newspaper.
