Urges observance of
Constitution Week
TO THE EDITOR:
The week of Sept 17-23 has been proclaimed as
Constitution Week by our president and our mayor.
How much we take to- granted the protection given
by our Constitution! What a wonderful document this is
to have survived for 191 years. The ideals upon which it
is based are reinforced each day by the success of the
system to which it gave birth. The excellence of this
document deserves our confidence and support.
I sincerely hope that during this week, we in Hertford
and Perquimans County, will observe this week by
displaying our flags and familiarising ourselves with
our rights, freedoms and duties undo* the supreme law
of the land.

their high quality long hi
the freeter. The reason is
that the seasonings added

TOWN AND COUNTY
CUT APPROPRIATIONS
TO LOCAL LIBRARY:
The Perquimans County
Library, located in the
Women's Clubhouse on
Academy Street, will
operate on reduced rations
this year. The Library
Board in routine meeting
Tuesday morning con
sidered the fact that the
county has reduced its
appropriation from |600 to
$500 and the town has
made its grant smaller by
ISO -from HSOto $120.
HOEY SAYS TURKEY
DAY NOT TO BE
CHANGED: Gov. Clyde R.
Hoey has politely declined
President Roosevelt's kind
invitation to join him in
changing the official date
of Thanksgiving. The
governor will shortly issue
? proclamation directing
that the last Thursday in
November be observed as
Thanksgiving. Last year
he also declined to follow
the president in moving the
observance up one week.
"I feel very strongly about
Thanksgiving Day," Gov.
Hoey said. "It is not a
commercial event or ob
servance. For 75 years
there has been an un
broken observance of this
day in North Carolina on
the last Thursday in
November, and I see no
sufficient reason for a
change now. Accordingly
at the proper time I shall
designate this traditional
day again this /ear."
SNAKES TRAVEL IN
PARIS: Stalk White didn't
really care who waa
parked in his land the other
night, but he did know and
is concerned over the (act
that snakes usually travel
in pairs. (There's littler
sense in this so far, but
you'll get the drift as we go
along.) "People part there
at all hours," White said,
but there's something he
wishes to warn them
about Those who parked
in Stalk White's lane (or a
necking bee one night last
week, if they left the car,
were in almost as much
danger u Dick Tracy
usually if. The following
morning White drove out of
his lane and stowed long
enough to kill a three and a
half toot diamond back
rattler where the
unidentified car was
parked the night before.
The snake had five sets of
rattles and a button, the
Commissioner-elect said.
He added, tor the benefit of
those who park there, that
snakes usually travel in
pairs. You can be pretty
certain for the next several
days at least, the dead
rattler's mate, is
somewhere in the neigh
borhood.
