Bluejackets
While Edentonians as a whole regret that the Marines
have left Edenton, it is a source of satisfaction to have j
Commander Thomas J. Robertson sent to Edenton as I
commanding officer of the now Naval Air Station, j
Comdr. Robertson has been in Edenton for some time .
before officially becoming commanding officer, there
fore; he has first-hand information regarding the pleas
ant relations which have existed between the Marines j
and Edenton.
Coindr. Robertson says that the Navy has a big order ;
to fill in living up to the record set by the Marines, but |
that he will work to the end that the same friendly
feeling and cooperative spirit may continue. Already,
his attitude is reflected in the men under him, for unite
a few Bluejackets have already commented Upon the
friendliness of our people and their favorable iaipres- ,
sion of the town as a whole.
Local people want to be friendly anil make whatever
contribution they can to the end that members of the]
Navy will enjoy their stay here, and with this attitude, i
there should be no reason why the same pleasant rela
tions should continue as has prevailed while the Marines
were here. With local people going at least half way,
The Herald feels that the Blue jackets will go the other
half, for there are very few in the armed forces who do j
not appreciate, anything which is done for them to help ;
break the monotony of military duties . . . one of which j
is meeting and adding friends.
Edentonians, then, welcome the,members of the Navy
and hope their sojourn here will be mutually pleasant j
and helpful.
Chowan Facing - Test
Next Monday marks the inauguration of a drive in j
which Chowan County is asked to raise $6,700 as its j
quota in the national Red Cross War Fund, and it is (
hoped the County will lose no time in reaching the goal. ]
J. Clarence Leary, chairman of the drive, reports that j
his organization has been effected, and that a group of |
canvassers are ready to begin.
These canvassers are contributing of their time and
energy and are entitled to the consideration of those
who will be solicited. They should not be bodged to
make back calls, nor should, they be given smaller
amounts than one; can give. Chowan has never de
faulted in any. Red Cross quota, but if this year’s
amount is reached, there necessarily will have to be gen- ;
erous contributions.
There is little need to emphasize the worthiness of j
Red Cross activities, for there should not be a single I
person in Chowan who does not know the good which j
is accmplished among our fighting and wounded men

| Heard & Seen
By “Buff” , |
One of the Marines who was transferred to Cherry
Point, early this week sent the following which he
titles “Ode to the Navy Upon Us Successful Capture of
Mf’AS, Edenton:”
Now when it conies to building camps
And other installations.
Marines are no doubt far the best
In this or other nations.
They took, for instance, arid waste
Whore Edenton now stands
And built a camp, one of the best
in this or other lands.
And when the work was nearly done
And things were running well.
They thought they had a training base
Where they could train ’ike hell.
They shed their sweat and, blood ami tears
They worked both day and night-
Unlisted men and officers,
To teach Marines to fight.
But as the case so often is
They nlurily forgot the Navy—-
Those lads who neither toil nor spin
BUT ALWAYS GET THE GRAVY.
For these heroic mariners
Who never see the sea ■
Were laying deep, far-reaching plans
And waiting patiently.
And when they thought the time was ripe
To take the camp away,
Thov used their guile and pulled their strings
And planned both hieht and day.
So, finally they got the place -
\ way from the Marines
| Who worked so hard to, build it up.
(They moved to other scenes).
It is an oft repeated tale
Os politics. and dirt.
The N.uvv never does a lick—
Ma rines, they lose their shirt.
j And so beware, O brave Marines,
Who work from sun to; sun—
As soon as we got-things built up
They captured Edenton.
I ' I
L . ■ For the Navy needs a quiet plaee
To rest its weary bones,
Their bones get weary, so I hear,
From dodging Davy Jones.
So build again, U. S. M. C.
Build carefully—and then,
Prepare to hand the whole damn works
To the good old U. S. N.
]by Red Cross workers. It should scarcely be necessary
i to remind any that but for the Red Cross many Ameri-
I cans would have starved in prison camps. There are
J ever so many ways in which the Red Cross is helping
I our boys and girls that we should not only make a
! contribution, but we should make a sacrifice in giving
I as much as we are able.
Let’s put Chowan over the top—and in record time.
