+ What shall I do then with Jesus which is
ealled Christ? —Matthew 27:22.
HOW HAVE WE answered this, the paramount
question of the ages? Have we, looking to The
Cross, given the Saviour the supreme place in,
life, believing without wavering, that He will at
last triumph on the earth?
O Lord, may we gladly bear the Cross of Christ,
the divine mark oi discipleship. with holy enthusi
asm and spiritual courage and win victory for Him.
Hats Off To ’Em
Edenton’s Aces on Friday night lost the Eastern
Glass A football championship to Southern Pines
in a hard-fought game 7-6 in Goldsboro. Though
defeated for the Eastern crown, the Aces have ev
ery reason to be admired and complimented by the
Jtost of fans who stood by them at home and abroad
during the season.
While the Aces at times during the season dis
played a little better brand of football than they
did Friday night, they played an outstanding game
and were defeated by a very good and wide-awake
opponent who knew they were in a football game
after it was all over.
Coaches Bill Billings and Johnny Morris, as well
as the Aces themselves are to be commended for
the showing made this season. At the beginning
of the season the coaches didn’t have much of ]
a nucleum around which to build a strong ma
chine. Most of the boys were inexperienced and
the opinion was not infrequently given that the
Aces this year would not have a chance to even
win the Albemarle Conference Championship, with
the opposition they were scheduled to encounter,
much less go as far as to play for the Eastern
Championship.
The boys have come a long way and have over
come their inexperience with a desirb to play the
game, so that some opponents, with the Aces as
the underdog, were bowled over in spite of ap
parent odds. Few of this year’s squad will be lost
by graduation, so that with quite a few remaining,
the prospects appear very good as to a strong team
next year.
During the season, due to the nature of football,
boys were given a great deal of credit, which
they justly deserved. However, on a football team
there are those who play just as valuable a game
but whose efforts too many times go unnoticed.
The Herald, therefore, does not single out any par
ticular player for the success of the 1958 season,
but rather congratulates every member of the
squad, as well as the coaches, for the fine showing
made despite a very light and inexperienced team
to start with.
Important Elections
December 15th is Referendum Day for many
farmers in Eastern North Carolina in that they will
be given an opportunity to vote on that day on
the continuation of the peanut assessment, the con
tinuation and increase in Tobacco Associates, on
the tobacco quotas and on cotton quotas. This is
a definite advantage to the growers in that the
four referenda are combined and all of them can
be voted on in one trip. The peanut assessment
idea, whereby growers could vote to assess them
selves and use the funds thus derived to promote
the production, marketing and consumption of pea
nuts was first put into effect in Virginia at lc per
100 pounds. Then in 1953, North Carolina voted
in lc per 100 pounds. Seeing the need for in
creased funds, the peanut growers in 1955 in North
Carolina increased their assessment to 2c per 100
pounds. In 1957, Alabama, seeing the successes
in North Carolina and Virginia, voted to assess
themselves 5c per 100 pounds and then in 1958,
Georgia, seeing the advantages, voted to assess
themselves 5c per 100 pounds. Texas and Okla
homa are now in the process of getting legislation
passed so that they, too, will be able to assess
themselves and raise funds to promote their pea
nuts.
The fact that Georgia, Alabama, Texas and Okla
homa are coming in on the assessment basis, fol
lowing North Carolina and Virginia, is certainly
endorsement to the success of this program.
The peanut growers of North Carolina who are
aware of the activities of the North Carolina Pea
nut Growers Association or who will study the
activities of the association, will certainly feel'that !
a continuation of the 2c per 100 pounds assessment
is to their benefit. Detailed information of the ac
tivities of the association will be made available
through press releases, radio, county agents, voca
tional agricultural teachers, and other agencies,
to all farmers prior to the referendum. It is hoped
that the peanut growers will turn out in large
numbers and give strong support to a favorable
vote on the peanut assessment. It is even more
important now with the other states competitively
promoting their type of peanuts with more money
than is being raised in North Carolina that all
support the assessment referendum in order that
the North Carolina Peanut Growers Association
can continue and expand its activities in promoting
the North Carolina grown peanut.
Carrots For The Rabbits
j- Have you made your Christmas Seal contribu
tion One hundred of your neighbors have, ac
cording to Ralph Parrish, treasurer of the Chowan
County Tuberculosis Association. Are you one of
toe 2,100 who haven’t? Did you say to yourself,
“They won’t miss my gift.”
But your small gift is the whole point of the
Christmas Seal Sale. It was founded on the prin
ciple that small contributions from the many, many
people who want to see TB licked will do the job.
The TB association people don’t high-pressure their
Mends and neighbors into contributing. They,
don’t solicit in stores and factories or ask for pay-
p[| Os Seen
Q By Buff
With Thanksgiving to be observed Thursday
of this week, the Rev. Walter E. Isenhour of
Taylorsville, N. C., sent me the following poem:
THANKSGIVING
For clouds that send their drops of rain
And give the little seeds their birth;
For fields that yield their crops of grain,
And skies that shine above the earth;
For mountains, valleys, plains and hills
That make the landscape grand to see;
For oceans, rivers, streams and rills,
>0 God, in thanks we look to Thee.
‘For birds that sing their cheerful songs
That greet us at the break of day;
For ev’ry heart of man that longs
To bless us all along life’s way;
For food to eat and clothes to wear,
For friends and loved ones, homes and beds,
For health and strength and daily care,
O God, in thanks we bow our heads.
For our great privilege to live
Where schools and churches dot the land,
Where men their best to others give
In time and service that is grand;
Where Christians love and pray and sing
And add dear brothers to their rolls;
Where men to right and freedom cling,
O God, in thanks we lift our souls.
For Thy good Word and saving grace,
And for our glorious flag unfurled;
And for the right to fill our place
In this great nation of the world;
For Christ who came from heaven's throne
And died up the cruel tree,
That He might crown us as His own,
O God, we thank and worship Thee.
o
Here’s one who was fortunate enough to attend
the annual Home Demonstration Clubs’ annual
| husbands' banquet held at Wards Community
, Building Wedesday night of last week. And all
' I can say is that there are some stumped-down
good cooks in that neck of the woods. It was
the fartherest north in Chowan County that I
have ever eaten a meal and, with no reflection
on other meals I’ve had with home demonstra
tion clubs, it was as good as any meal where I
have stuck my legs under a table. It was fittin’
for a king.
o
And then the women had a pile of favors at
each place so that it was almost necessary to
have a small traveling bag to put ’em in. But
sometimes the favors are wasted. Take for in
stance a comb which was at Winks Bond’s place,
a toothbrush at Raleigh Peele’s place and a plas
tic purse at my place. Winks has no hair to
tidy up, so the comb is of no use to him. Ra
leigh Peele has no teeth, so he needn’t brush his
teeth, and T have no money to put in the purse,
so—well, what the hec, it was a fine banquet.
o—
Just about the most popular question asked
Thursday night and Friday morning was, “Are
you going to Goldsboro Friday night?” I heard
one good answer when I. E. Halsey, Jr., asked
Jack Hardison the same question out at the
Tasty-Freeze. Jack’s reply was “Well, my car
has wheels on it, hasn’t it?”
o
And speaking about the football game, a large
crowd of Edenton fans accompanied the Aces to
Goldsboro. The band, too, was on hand, and
presented a very outstanding performance at
half time, for which they were generously ap
plauded by friend and “foe.” An interested
spectator on the Edenton side was Congressman
Herbert Bonner and when I spied him walking in
I went to his seat, asking, “What are you doing in
this neck of the woods?” Herbert, all diked out
in a loud mackinaw, replied, “Why, I’m here
trying to help Edenton win the Eastern cham
pionship.” Well, we didn’t win and if Friend
Herbert didn't have any more influence in the
Congress of the United States than he had on the
Goldsboro football field Friday night, darned if
I'd vote for him any more.
o
At this season of the year there are a number
of campaigns in progress to raise money. I
heard one colored man say to another on Monday
morning, “We had a meeting Sunday to plan to
raise some money and you weren’t there.” The
other fellow hesitated a bit and replied, “You
know one thing, I met with myself last night
arid found out that I don’t have any money.”
o
Just about out of gas and energy, too, in order
to print The Herald a day earlier this week on
account of Thanksgiving. Here’s hoping all of
us will find enough time Thursday to count some
of our blessings and thank Him, who has been
so good to us.
roll deductions. They don’t ring doorbells or so
licit by phone. They trust implicitly in a letter
explaining why money is needed to fight TB, a
letter that you receive and answer in private. In
the more than half a century of the Christmas
Seal Sale their faith has been rewarded annually.
But you’re still asking, “What difference will my
few dollars make?” Here’s one small example out
of many. In a laboratory in Philadelphia rabbits
are nibbling on carrots. These rabbits, which look
like any other rabbits, have been bred for genera
tions for one purpose to find out why some get
sick when infected with TB germs and others do
not. Some day this research may lead to a meth
od of making us all resistant to tuberculosis.
Christmas Seal funds help support this research.
But if that support has to be withdrawn because
there isn’t enough money? If there aren’t enough
carrots to feed those rabbits? How about it? Send
your contribution today.
Selfish individuals contribute very little to
ward a better world.
People who get tired easily seldom accomplish
much worthwhile work.
Going to church is a habit that one should
cultivate; there is little danger in it.
An honest man, after reviewing his own life,
will be inclined to let youth chart its own
course.

I SENATOR Ek 1
SAM ERVIN JlLgk
Washington—From what I have
read about the general legisla
tive program for the next Con
gress suggested by Majority Lead
er Lyndon Johnson there seems
to be encouraging signs that over
whelming Democratic control of
the State will continue to pro
duce responsible legislation. This
is not to say that there will not
be squabbles with the Republican
Administration in the White
House or even smooth sailing
among Democrats at all times.
Nol Party-Line
I have not minimized the dan
ger in which the South finds it
self with respect to changing Sen
ate Rule XXII. But that danger
is not a party line affair. It
mushrooms from the mistaken no
tion that much desirable legisla
tion has been killed or long de
layed by the use of unlimited de
bate in the Senate. Such is not
the case. The device of unlimit
ed debate is not a whim of so
called Southern conservatives.
Historically speaking it has been
used by minorities from other sec
tions to carry on an educational
process in the Senate against leg- 1
islation which they considered
harmful to the country. Unfor
tunately when Southerners pur
sue this same process they are
charged immediately with a fili
buster "no matter how worthy or
lofty the reason.
The civil rights debates in the
last session of Congress were
maintained on a high level. When
the debates started few people
in the country had taken time to
study the proposals in the bills.
As an example of this truth we
can recall the uphill battle that
had to be fought on the jury trial
feature. Had Rule XXII not been
in effect it is doubtful that this
debate could have been had due
to the highly emotional aspects of
the proposition. In this debate
the South had the support of

The spirit of Thanksgiving sets
the mood for festivity and gay
celebration, centered on the tra
ditional turkey dinner with all
the fixings. It is the culmination
of all the days of planning and
preparation. The setting for the
meal is a beautifully set table,
sparkling bright with the choice'
appointments festive as the day.
Thanksgiving food shoppers
have a lot to be thankful for.
There’s a good selection of dif
ferent foods for Thanksgiving and
retail prices are reasonable. But
lit will cost more to put a full
{scale holiday meal on the table
than it did a few years ago, even
with .reasonable price tags on
many of the foods.-
Plan your holiday meals accord-,
ing to available time and money,
plentiful and seasonal foods. Hol
iday meals can be enjoyable with
jout too much cost or work.
If you are having turkey for
Thanksgiving or Christmas, choos
ing that bird is important.
i . '
In a turkey, look for:
1. Plump appearance, with a
broad breast and short body.
2. Clean, waxy skin with few
pinfeathers.
3. Well rounded thighs and a
good meat coverage on the
back.
■ 4. Pliable keel bone.
Avoid:
1. Bruises or discoloration.
2. Thin, skinny bone.
3. Birds with many pinfeathers.
Food shoppers should check on
prices, quality and value when
buying the makings of the
Thanksgiving Dinner. Put special
emphasis on wise selection at the
counter, proper care of the food
until it is used, and the right
preparation. They will make it
