So far as the writer can learn, a press convention will
be held in Edenton for the first time in the town's history
Friday and 'Saturday. While the Eastern North Carolina
Press Association does not take in all the newspapers
_ of the State, the group includes daily and weekly news-.
papers east of Raleigh.
Members of the association for some reason were very
anxious to meet in Edenton. Many of them have passed
through and some have visited here before, but among the
group, no doubt, are some who have never been here.
Many stories have gone out of Edenton, so that much
has been read about the history, beauty and cleanliness
of the town as well as the friendliness and hospitality of
our people.
As one of the host newspapers for the convention, The
Herald is very happy to welcome the newspaper folk to
Edenton. The only regrettable pant of the convention is
the fact that the time is so much taken up with the pro
gram that there will be little opportunity .to see the his
torical sites and mingle with out people. The writer
hopes, however, that the visitors will be greeted cordial
ly and that tliey will get a favorable impression of our
little historical town.
Mrs. Inglis Fletcher will give a sample of this section’s
hospitable people, having invited all members of the
press association to be her guests at Bandon. Mrs. Eliza
beth Swindell, president of the association, as well as
many other members, consider the visit to Bandon a high
light of the convention and are looking forward to a de
lightful afternoon spent with the noted writer. It seems
like an imposition on Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher to serve a
luncheon to such a large number, hut Mrs. Fletcher, in
speaking with The Herald’s editor, said “We want to en
tertain'the newspaper people and we must do it right.”
The Herald is a small newspaper compared to some in
the association, but its welcome to fellow newspaper
workers to Edenton is as cordial and sincere as could be
extended by any newspaper.
Information Available
Some local merchants appear much concerned regarding
filing forms for the Office of Price Stabilization. Some
have met with obstacles, so that apparently there is some
confusion about the whole matter.
Today (Thursday) and tonight Arnold Aspden, rep
resentative of the Raleigh OPS office will be in Edenton
■to offer his services in preparing the forms as required
by law. Mr. Aspden will be at the Court House at 3
P. M., and again at 8 P. M., at which .time he will be
glad to furnish any information necessary.
Those merchants who have not completed their forms
or who do not understand any phase of the law should
make a special effort to meet Mr. Aspden.

THE CHOWAN HERALD, DENTON, N. G, THURSDAY, MAY 10, 1910.
’Heard & Seen
By “Buff”
When it rains it pours, for here I am faced with two
conventions at almost the same time. I have my “hands
full helping to arrange for the newspaper folk of East
ern North Carolina, who will hold their first convention
in Edenton Friday and Saturday. Then on Sunday I’m
supposed to leave for High Point to represent Chowan
Tribe at the Red Men’s convention. Just cannot take it
anymore, so I have to give up the 'High Point “party.”
At any rate Jim Daniels and Arthur Hollowell and Mrs.
Horace White and Mrs. E. J. Pruden of Merry Hill are
planning to go to represent the Red Men and Pocahon
tas lodges. Gosh, I know I’ll be missing a lot of fun —
and would also miss a lot of sleep, too.
o
Here’s one who enjoyed a visit to the (Boy Scout jam
boree at the Marine Corps Air Station over the week
end. It does a fellow good to see a group of boys having
a good .time, and that’s what they apparently had. How
ever, I saw one adult, the Rev. R. M. .Gradeless, who had
just as much fun or even more than anyone of the boys.
Captain Ted Boutwell was master of ceremonies over a
large pan cooking hamburgers for about 26 Scouters on
Saturday night. I don’t know if you’d call the things
“king” size or not, but 1 do know that one was about all
any one person could eat—except Horace White.
o
Late last week I had two very pleasant Surprises.
First a gentleman walked in the office and asked if 1
knew him. I hesitated a while and he said, “I’m Harry
Jordan from Minneapolis.” Well, I.had never met him
but have had a number of notes and letters from him
and even a box of very good cigars (they’re all gone now,
however) on one occasion. I have his pioture over my
desk and after glancing at it I was sure he was the
right man. He didn’t tarry long, but I surely appreciat
ed his visit. Then I’m glad I didn’t go fishing 'Saturday
afternoon, for I would have missed a visit by my friend,
Preacher Harold Gilmer, former rector of 'St. Paul's Epis
copal Church, who came down from Winston-Salem for
St. Paul’s 250th anniversary. It did me good to see him
once again. Meeting old and dear friends and making
new ones is sort of like a tonic when one keeps his nose
to the grindstohe day in and day out.
From all information I have received, members of the
Eastern North Carolina Press Association are looking
• forward with much pleasure .to the meeting scheduled to
be held in Edenton Friday and Saturday. Why some of
’em are even thinking about something to eat. Mrs.
Elizabeth Swindell of Wilson, .president of the associa
tion, informed me Wednesday morning that (some of the
publishers asked that a request be made to various eat
ing places to have herring on the menu for Saturday
morning breakfast. Well, the herring season has been
extended, so maybe they’ll be able to eat herring.
Members of the Junior Woman’s Club this week have
been driving around spotting boys and girls jriding bi
cycles in connection with the bike safety program. Abie
little boy told me he had driven out to the Triangle and
back six times in succession, but that the ladies didn’t
pay any attention to him. Anyway, there’s a lot of in
terest in the bike program and here’s hoping it will re
sult in the kids being more careful.
o
I know of two young men who were very happy the }
last few days. They were Chaplain (Major) Harry C.
Hand and H’M2/c Archie Ashley, who have returned hdme
from the Korea fighting area. Both men have been
awarded various kinds of medals, but I’m satisfied both of
'em were happier when they reached the shores of‘the
good old USA than when they were honored with the
stars and medals. Here’s welcoming ’em back home.
