Re*lov. Counselor. The Thfee P’s: There is a great deal now be ing wr.tien and discussed about paid “TV.” Some people seem to be in favor of- it on the basis of seeing better entertainment: others say there will be no dif ference. Do you have any com ment on this subject Alex P. T. Dear Alex: First let us clear up a few points. First you are suffering under a delusion if you think you are not paying for radio and television entertainment. Every time Minnie’s hair-:o or Jasper’s men’s underwear backs a show on radio or TV they pay through the nose for it and you pay for it every time you buy Minnie’s hair-do or Jasper’s men’s underwear. It is true you ; do not have any selection of the program except the right to turn it off if you do not like it. Another misconception is that you should be entertained 24 hours a day and that there are sufficient entertainers to give you high class entertainment on an around the clock basis. Such i an idea stultifies the mind and. takes away from you the ability to entertain yourself once in a while. That the so called stars, crooners and rock ’n roll per formers are underpaid is far from the truth. Many of them are millionaires many times over, have their own producing companies, receive continual royalties and many of them have controlling interests in other corporations outside of the entertainment field. You are now paying for that whether you realize it or not while you , get your weekly salary and live in hopes that some day you will be free from debt and save that first thousand dollars. The argument for Daid TV and radio is that you will get performances and better entertainment and a wider selection within your own choosing. Well, let us face the facts: You will have the same stars as you have now: you will have the same over glamorous movies with a deep sex appeal and ridiculous plots that insult ( the mind of an Intelligent per- : son. The one thing you will miss is the commercial. How- 1 ever, once you put your quarter in .lie slot and the entertain ment is poor, you can still turn it off, but you will have lost your quarter. Right now the j TV producers are hard DUt to it and from present observation each MC is borrowing stars F E | Over 559.000 in Earnings Paid to Savers in 1958 | to save I «ssgr_\ 'X^/ ';\ v | s i GET OX the savings payroll this year . . . earn 1 a full share of profits, paid twice yearly here.

C. from other shows to put on aj ! few so called funny skits. It is [ ' following the old line of vaude- 1 ville, but falls far below the of the old vaudeville shows. Either way you are going to ( pay for the entertainment; it just depends upon how you want to pay for it. Do not misun derstand Your counselor; there are good TV and radio shows and movies, but they are few and far between. You are go ing to be a victim either way. unless you express your criti- I cism and do not expect to be i entertained by some one else in j your idle moments. To The Three P's: I am a man and I have never written to a woman’s column or any other column, 'nut under my skin I have a orobiem I would like to get out in the open. 1 have a wonderful wife and I I love her but for the past year ' and a half she has gotten in the habit of staying in bed and let-, ting me get my own breakfast. J I do not mind this once in a while, especially when she is sick, but as a steady diet it is too much. Now, from one man to another, and I presume you are a man, what would you suggest I do. I know after I 'eave for work my wife gets up when she feels like it. primps j up, goes shopping, goes to social affairs and plays bridge. Please i let me know w.':at to do b-ttose i I blow up. Dan N. T Dear Dan: Yes, you do have a problem and it is not uncommon: in fact,' it is becoming rather prevalent i from all the letters I receive j from general conversation. Os. course, in a certain way you 1 yourself are responsible. Per haps this habit of your wife ; staying in bed and letting you get your own breakfast started in a natural way. Your wife j was indisposed one morning and asked you if you would not get your breakfast that morning. You being a sympathetic, un derstanding and loving husband, replied. “Yes, honey, do not bother your head about it: you stay in bed until you feel bet | ter.” Well that was the begin ning. Your wife rather enjoyed, the luxury of staying in bed in the morning. So she tried it again and again and you agreed until it became a habit. Well, there is only one thing you can co, just tell your wife that from now on she is to get up and get your breakfast or else. And that “else” can be anything you choose it to be, threatening to get all of your meals out and you holding on to the pay check , and doling out the money in : dribs and drabs. This, I am sure, will have the desired es -1 feet. If this does not work, drop me another line and I will have something else to suggest, that I am sure will correct this, habit. No man better knows what good is than he who hath en dured evil. —John Ray. THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON. NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 1, 1959. “* «.C HI snails Raleigh The Motor Vehicles 1 Department’s summary of traffic deaths through 10 A. M., Decern-1 ber 29, 1958 was as follows: Killed This Year 1068, Ki.led To Date Last Year 1057 National Outlook (Continued from Page 2) by giving a credit to the account I of the government, and that in volves an inciease in the money supply. An increase in the money sup ply is inflationary unless it is off set by an equal growth in the vol ume of goods and services being offered for sale. The threat of in— ! flation is the third great worry. I j More persons today than at any | time in •several years are eon-, , vinced that there is further infla ‘ tion ahead. j The fear of inflation is not sim- j ply the result of the federal de- J ficit. Government spending itself i is inflationary when it gets to present totals. And wages over all still are increasing at least as rapidly, and perhaps more rapid ly, than output per manhour, which means a continuation of the wage-price spiral. On the other side, we have sub stantial unused productive capa city, and there is plenty of labor. It may well be, therefore, that we 1 shall have a sufficient increase in i the volume of goods and service's coming into the market to absorb j i the increased money supply. But that would still leave government spending and the wage-push as inflationary factors. The final worry which must be I mentioned is the legative outlook. It is certain that we shall have la bor and tax legislation. In neith er case will it be all that is need i ed, but by hard work it may be j possible to make some progress in these fields. The worry arises from other laws which may be passed by the new Congress. The list of possi bilities runs well over a score and the aggregate cost would be; bil lions of dollars. Some of these j will be opposed by the Admini stration. some will not be, The I most than can be said at the mn j ment is that the new Congress will not be an aid to continuation i of the business recovery. Four Fire Alarms During Holidays | Quietness of the Christmas was j bioken with Edenton firemen be-j ing called out for four fires, twoj j on Friday, December 26, and two! , on Saturday, December 27, ! One of the Friday alarms came; from the Gliden community but j the firemen returned before ar-1 rival after learning that the fire j was put out. The other fire was! at the home of Percy Twine, col ored, on the Mexico Road] Twine's wife had finish°d wash-i ins clothes and placed them nearj a heater, as the result of which they caueht fire. Practically all' of the clothes were burned. The first Saturday fire was at, Habit’s Tavern, where an oil heat-' or flooded, but no damage was. done.
