The Spirit Os Chowan Lives On
there was a moving, mighty, mexhorable spirit prevalent
at the crowded meeting held in thy Edenton Baptist
Church on Tuesday. There was an undercurrent which
slowly spread throughout tile body of tile Church as cacti
• impassioned, solitary voice rest- up. one by one. hero and
there, and ail amund. It seemed tiiat the voice .4 "old
Chowan” had finally gotten an audiences— people were
beginning t-- take heed. Speaking through the lips of
young and old.' the "sp : ri:" of Chowan College rallied
.to iverwht ng \ *t* ot corpulence to smash neat
to its existence. There could be no doubt in the minds
of anyone as to-how the people felt. Not only our good
Baptist brethren, but even members iff other religious
beliefs who were present. People who are ready and
willing, it is reported, to "lay it on the line in cold hard
cash”. Peapie who couldn't rt main quiet, couldn't allow
a heritage to be thrown away. The heritage,belonging
to the kids of Northeastern North Carolina.
There are those who, because of the expressed dif
ficulty in past years, and the seemingly h'-peless task
of arousing what was termed by some ‘a totally in
different people", would have had an end to this thorn
in the flesh. They who will go home now with thanks
giving in their hearts and a prayer that the sentiment
expressed be carried through to a right conclusion. The j
die is cast. Through the vote of the entire body present,
against approximately eighteen or twenty, the Baptist
: brethren of the Chowan and West Chowan Associa
tions have, expressed their will. Chowan will live on!
We on the sidelines, who were moved to the core, by the
impelling, irresistible, spirit expressed, sav that if this
tremendous, surging, overwhelming force, be imparted to
the home folks, Chowan College will live on—and
gloriously I
Let’s Not FaiT
' It is somewhat disappointing that Chowan County has
not yet reached its quota in the Red Cross Fund Rais
ing Drive. Up to, Tuesday Captain L. A. Patterson re
ported $2,000 turned in which is SSOO short of the $2,50(1
quota for the County.
Os course. Captain Patterson is confident that $2,500 i
•will be realized, for of his reports turned in, none .have I
come from the rural area, where it is not as convenient J
to complete a canvass as in town. He feels certain that j
■ at least $b(H) will ..come from the rural canvassers.
Captain Patterson is very anxious to wind up the I
drive and to that.end he.urges every canvasser to make i
his or her return by the latter part of this week.
Chowan County has always met and gone beyond the |
Red Cross quota, so that The Herald hopes, when all re
ports are in, the long-standing record will remain un
broken.

Careful driving is. being stressed.: in connection with
safety on the highways, but snne words should be said
about careless walking.

j By “Buff*’
Ever been home-sick? If you have, you will have
some idea about the plight of Raymond who is
homesick in the Nth degree to come back to Edenton.
Shortly before his mother died he was taken to a nurs
ing home in Norfolk, where he has been confined for
the most part in a room, which is altogether foreign to
his make-up. Os course, he is crippled, but in Edenton
one of his greatest joys was to be wheeled around and
greeted by many of his friends. Raymond wants to
come back home, and from my meager information, 1
don’t blame him. Anyway, Mrs. George Williams has
agreed to care for Raymond, but cannot do so until she
can secure a larger house. W hat is needed for Ray
mond to realize his great desire is for someone to take
care of him until Mrs. Williams can move to larger
quarters. If there is anyone who will care for Raymond
temporarily, it is expected to pay a fair price for the
trouble and, inconvenience. Anyone who is willing to
offer their services should communicate with C.-.W. Ward
in Elizabeth, City or .Mrs. J. H. Mc.Mullan at the local
Welfare Department. Yes, Raymond wants to conie
back home—lre’s: homesick.
Well, at least two ot the 11 bassinets at the hospital
are now in use, for the stork arrived in two instances.
Mr. and Mrs. Louts George Wilkins are the proud par
ents of a son and Mr. and Mrs. Mnrriel Byrum are
proud of a daughter. In both instances mother and baby
are getting along fine, as is the case with the grand
parents. It is the first time Mr. and Mrs. Waller Wilk
ins have been grandparents and the same is true of Mr.
and Mrs. Graham Byrum. In fact, I about came to the
conclusion that the grandpappies were going to have the
babies instead of the two young mothers. The Wilkins
boy was the'first to be born in the hospital, which is not ;
the only record he has. for he also can boast five grand
mothers. There tire one great great grandmother, two j
great grandmothers and th.-n. of course, two “regular
grandmothers. Gosh, if he ever gets around to seeing
Yin till, lie'll he liable to in- a spoiled youngster, for 1
know something about grandmothers and their* grand
children. Anyway, here's hoping all of the bassinets at I
the hospital are put to use. if they are. maybe we’ll be j
able to organize a “Grandpappy Club. ' 1 haven’t joined
anything in a long time now.

It was Gus Moore, I believe, who was telling me not to.
get excited if I got a fish bone in my throat. "Just let
it alone,” he said, “and it will soon turn into a jelly-like j
substance and pass off." Yeah, but what in the dickens '
must a guy do in the meantime? But I'm wondering if a I
pair are in the same category, for I lost mine!'
and about the only explanation 1 can make is that I I
swallowed them. Sitting in ray home reading, I thought
1 put the things in my pocket, and had gone nowhere
except to my car and then to The Herald office. Upon
arriving at the office, they were gone. Strict search has
failed to find the things, and come to think about it. I
fell asleep while reading and had my mouth open. I’ve
given up finding the glasses, for I’m of the opinion they
went the same route as the fish bone Friend Gus was
talking about. So much so, in fact, that I’ve got to go
to Norfolk and get fixed up so that I can see.

Scottish Rite Masons will hold a big party at the Offi- |
cers Club at the air station next Wednesday night at j
7:30 which will attract Masons from all over this section i
of the State and their wives. Ed Harding will be the !
principal speaker for the occasion.
o-
People are not'always doing what some others might!
think, which was the case last week when Mrs. Raymond ,'
Umbaugh dropped in the office. She was telling me that j
a relative from Indiana was planning oq coming to Eden-1
ton and wanted to know something about the best time '
to go fishing and the kind of fish caught. Well, in the
first instance, the best time to go fishing fs when a fel
low has, some bait and time to spare. I was telling her
the kind of flsh caught around here and after each kind
she made a few marks on a paper with her pencil, .. First,
of course, I told her we catch bass. She drew a line or
two and stopped. Then I told her we catch speckled
perch. Down went another line and I thought she was
drawing pictures of the fish. Noticing sort of a rainbow
shaped line, I said. "No. a speckled perch is not shaped
like that—it is more of a wider fish.” Gosh, that’s when
I was surprised. "Why,” she said, “I’m just taking down
in shorthand what I must write in a letter to Ray’s
brother.” Oh me!
