Psalms -139:24. Faith fixed in God’s goodness and power will destroy fear and doubt. God will lead us if we trust him, for there is no security for us apart from Him. Give us faith, O God, to recognise Thy pres ence and sustain us with Thy strength when we call upon thee in true humility and belief. Volunteers Needed Attention is called to a story on the front r ige of this issue of The Herald relative to U’e need of volunteer workers for Edenton’s Girl Scouts. The Girl Scouts is a great voluntary or j .nization providing Scouting opportunities to two and two-thirds million girl members. Three-fourths of a million adult members give of their time and abilities to enable girls to have this worthwhile experience. Only one fourth of one percent are professional work ' ers. During the 51 years of Girl Scouting, the organization has been vital and alert to the needs of local and national communities of the world. The Edenton Girl Scouts are sponsored by the Edenton Woman's Club and are now part of the Virginia Tri-County Girl Scout Council. The Council will provide, training and direc tion for the local troops. However, local persons must provide the leadership here. Workers are very much needed to insure the continuance of the local program. Leaders and assistant leaders ape especially needed as well as workers in other capacities' About 90 girls are expected to participate in the local program for the coming year. There will be a Brownie Troop for the second and third grades, two junior Girl Scout troops for fourth through sixth grades and one troop for Cadettes for grades seven through nine. 'Contributing of your time'and efforts to this worthwhile cause will not only provide personal satisfaction but will have a perma nent influence in making this a better com munity for future generations. Anyone interested in sharing in this great progam is asked to contact the chairman. Mrs. J. P. Ricks, Jr. Worthy Os Note It is interesting to note the progress made by the Pettigrew Regional Library for the fiscal vear ending June 30, as prepared by Mrs. Robert Campbell, chairman of the board of directors. • Though real progress has been made dur ing the past year, there are many goals vet to be reached, according to Mrs. Campbell. With the exception of two and one-half months the regional library has had no di rector. Now, however, a new director, Mrs. Rebecca Scoggin, is scheduled to take over the duties on September 9. With continued cooperation and with equal interest for the best library service in each of the -three coun ties in the Pettigrew Region, it is reasonable to expect progress to continue, so that even more books will be read and a larger num ber of the citizens in Chowan, Tyrrell and Washington counties to receive library service. It should be a source of pride to library of ficials that during the fiscal year 160,310 books were .circulated by the library. This was an increase of books- over the previ ous year. This record was made'possible “by the untiring efforts of an efficient staff, a loyal regional board, aid from city and coun ty officials, newspaper editors, radio mana gers, the State Library and many friends in the Pettigrew region. Afl of the above are aware that a reading public is a well inform ed public and with the services of an ex perienced director look forward to continued service and success of the library. , — v 'blearcl & Seen By Buf} \ J v— i ■HHH| Earl Smith and the weather man apparently are not on good terms. Earl had his annual fish fry at his store in the Rocky Hock sec tion Tuesday night and, as was the case the last few years, the weather man sent down a goodly amount of rain. But despite hell and high water, Earl went through with the fish fry —and a very good one it was. Glancing at the crowd which gathered one sort of got the idea that abqut half of the county’s popu lation turned out to fill up on fish, slaw, corn bread, iced tea and even a cookie for des l sert. Due to the inclement weather, the crowd was obliged to go through the store to be served and eat wherever room could be found. Every available space in the store was used and many ate in automobiles. Mr. and Mrs. Johnnie Curran and Mr. and Mrs. George Hoskins managed to rig up a “table” on top of a string of grocery carts. Some squatted down on the floor to eat but Wil'mer Malone spied a vacant space on a shelf about six feet high, which he used as a “table”. Earl’s store was completely packed for an hour or more, so that anybody who might have wanted to hurriedly buy a loaf of bread or some other item would have been out of luck. Yep, Earl had ’em packed in his store for a spell, but I didn’t hear tljie cash register ring a single time. As usual, it was a very good fish fry and one to which a' host of Earl’s friends look forward to with a great deal of pleasure each year about this time. At most fish frys in the county Paul Ober has his hand in frying fish, but Tuesday night he was only a “spectator”—and eater. F. F. Tanner, who lives at Charles City, Va.. was among those who sent in renewals for The Herald. In a brief note Friend Tan ner wrote: “Dear Busf —Just a note along with check to say hello, trust that everything is well with all of you. My wife has been after me for some time to send money to have paper subscription renewed before we were cut off. As you know, she is an Eden tonian and looks forward in receiving the paper each week, of course, I have to look it over, too. J can recall many happy hours that I had while living p in Edentou with you good people. By’ the way, I wps through Edenton about two weeks ago and my good friend West Leary, as usual, gave me a nice watermelon. Hope that old Pembroke Creek will have some nice crappie in it this fall, as 1 want to get down that way Jor a few days of good fishing. So tell them to be getting fat and wait until fall to bite at minnows on a hook”. I ° The gang at the Post Office is called upon f to do any number of things, but they are not l in the parking business. Th6 other day some * body put in a mail box an Edenton parking ticket —maybe because the mail box is paint jed partly red. And then, maybe the party concerned didn’t know where in the devil the little red parking ticket boxes are located. o i Women apparently like to be complimented upon the clothes they are wearing, but one such compliment the other day was not so complimentary so far as the one to which the remark was directed. The remark went some | thing like this: “My goodness, that dress looks so good on you especially for as many years you have worn it.” o Speaking about the boys at the Post Office, a marked change has taken place so far as one of the gang is concerned. Bill Sexton didn’t care so much about the crop of gray hair on his head, so he had the whole top of his dome dyed black. He created a good deal of excitement the first day he turned up with his new “hair-do” and was the target for a lot of kidding. Nathan Owens, however, re frained from saying anything about it, for Nathan doesn’t even have enough hair on his head to have it dyed. o Chowan Ruritan Club is sponsoring a bene fit barbecue chicken supper at the Center , Hill-Cross Roads Fire Department Satur day night, August 17. The sapper will be served from 5:30 to 7:30 o’clock and the proceeds will go to Luther Bateman, Jr. Ruritans are hopejul that a large crowd will tarn out in order to get a good meal and at the same time help a very worthy cause. The upper Chowan County firemen know the art of barhecuing chicken, so that here’s one who can recommend a good meal— even if a fel low has to park, about mi way to Center .

Collins of Edenton is serving aboard the amphibious force flagship USS ESTES, a Seventh Fleet unit, which re cently participated in a joint U. S-Republic, of Korea am phibious exercise dubbed “Op eration Flagpole” and conducted near Seoul, Korea. The training exercise involved 67 ships plus numerous Marine air and ground units of both na tions. “Flagpole” is similar to other operations periodically conducted by Seventh Fleet units with armed forces of Far Eastern countries to improve proficiency in amphibious maneuvers. It is aimed alsq at maintaining close working relationships between allied nations.

The House Ways and Means Committee has been marking up a tax measure which may go before the House for its action before Labor Day. If the House does act affirmatively on the tax bill by September 1, the Senate Finance Committee will begin its hearings to consider such legislation.
