Let us not exchang the blessings of today for evils that may never come. Help us to forget our shortcomings of the past, O God, and live m the present, trusting Thee for the future. Help March Os Dimes it is pleasing to note that Edenton Jaycees will again this year sponsor the March of Dimes in Chowan County, with West By rum, Jr., Scott Harrell and Luther rail; ; . living as co-chairmen ! Os the drive. Great progress ha been made in the fight I against polio, but there are still many victims which must be cared tor. This, coupled with the | fact that many people have not taken advantage i of the Salk vaccine, means that no doubt there will be many more cases of the disease, so that i funds will be necessary. Due to the fact that inroads have been made to i prevent polio, the National Foundation is directing I its research activities to combatting arthritis and ' birth defects. This very worthwhile program wiu a iso call for large outlay of money, so that the need for March of Dimes funds are as great as ever. > The Jaycees are hoping Chowan County will j make a substantial contribution to the March of j Dimes, so that every person in the county is urged i to ponder over the success of the polio fight and j visualize similar progress in the fight against artb ritis and birth defects and make a contribution on behalf of a movement Which will benefit all man kind. If everybody gives just a little, the Jaycces' goal will be realized. The Sooner The Better Two things at this time of year just must be done and the sooner they are attended to, the bet ter it will be. First, property mud lie hsted with the various kto listers for taxation purposes This must lie during the month of January, and those who ' do not comply with the law will be liable to face ! a penalty and still further embarrassment by be- j ing cited to the Grand Jury for action in Superior | Court. In this issue of The Heiald ;.n advertise- ; ment appears setting out. the schedule of the coun ty’s tax listers, so that in order to save 'ne and the inconvenience of standing in tine to hi waited on, it will be well to attend to this matter as early in the month a.s possible. The other duty which must be attended is pur chasing N. C. 1959 automobile license plates. Thesi will go on sale at the office of the Carolina Motor Club on West Water Street. Owners of cars should check to see if their renewal registration cards are properly recorded which will save time in securing the new license •■plates, and must sign a declaration that the owner has proper insurance coverage. Car owners arc urged to purchase their 1959 license plates as early as possible for quite fre quently in previous years long waiting lines ap- i peared near the deadline and on several occasions , inclement weather made it . very uncomfortable i and unpleasant waiting tor a person’s turn.

JJearJ Qf Seen By Buff i A Herald subscriber came in to pay up his sub scription the other day and learned that he was about seven months in arrears. He paid for two years, saying he hoped he’d be here that long. “Well, ’ I told him. “if you pass out we'll change the address to wherever you go.” The fellow said “I don't know if it will have to be delivered by submarine or airplane;.” o Everything was very quiet in Edenton over the Christmas holidays. After Christmas I heard one I colored man ask another: “Well, neighbor, what | kind of a Christmas did von have?” The reply ] was "Very quiet. You know what I did 1 ’ I ‘shock’ : off mv shoes and stayed in the house all day long." ! Well, that’s about what the majority of people did if the number seen on the streets was any indi- I cation. Last week The Herald appeared early oh account of the C hristmas holiday and after the paper was printed it was learned that about 40 things went wrong. We ve had a number of complaints and one was of a few week’s standing. Ralph Williams I said he was good and mad at me about the write up of Edenton s Christmas parade. Everything in the parade was mentioned except the Fire Depart ment's old Reo truck, the first fire truck Edenton i ovor had. The boys at the Fire Department work | ed long and hard to get the old Reo in shape. All | the old paint was scraped off and a new coat put | on sq that it looked almost like new. In fact Ralph was just as proud of the old relic as he | was the newer equipment, hut not a word was -aid about it in the storv. Anyway, the Reo was I in the parade and Ralph was driving it, so now i maybe that complaint is fixed up. o- If pedigiee means anything, Edenlon peopic | should have a good opportunity to enjoy some good t h< * f steaks. A prime steer, son of the national champion, was purchased by Swift Sc Companv at the Chicago Livestock Exposition for the P & Q Super Market and this meat is now being sold. , At th<l ' livestock exposition Arthur Godfrey pur chased the grand champion for a measly $20,000. Anyway, it is the first time a steer from the Na tional Livestock Exposition has been purchased and sold by an Edenton concern. Now I really believe a human body lias some rubber in it. Wednesday morning while starting down the stairs after crawling out of bed, a rub ber mat slipped under my feet causing me to bounce like a rubber ball from one step to another until I reached about the half way mark. Shoes and sweater went in all directions while I was | bouncing around. For one 'thing, it got me wide awake, plus several bruises on my arms and sitting down place. ■ ———-o-- Mis Goldie L. Niblett, branch manager of the I Carolina Motor Club in Edenton. calls attention I to the fact that the North Carolina license plates j .11 go on sale Friday, January 2. She emphasizes | the requirement that proper liability insurance . coverage must be signed by the owner before a; license will be issued. Again this year SI.OO will be collected for driver education' in the high' schools of the state and owners must list the name of the county in Which the vehicle is sub ject to personal property tax. As usual. Mrs. Nib lett urges automobile owners to purchase their li cense plates in order to avoid the last minute rush. Her office is on East Water Street and office hours are 9 A. M.. to 4 P. M , except Saturdays, when th< office close's at. noon. —o And speaking of things which MUST be done, dent forget that during January everybody must list property for taxation purposes. The sooner it is done the better. 1959 A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO AĹL THE CHQfWSBK XDEWTOW, fBOROH- CXBPLMrap iIWMWT, JAWtHkRY l, 1989, v . • j", *■ . • Si! .: : i ■ p y g f 5 L m \ » |% - • - s y - M y A' ' if I i s l MRS.
