Several Rocky Hock folks
i&ave had “bump ups” lately
and we’re glad to report that
‘nope of them were serious
... . at least not to the per
son. I imagine the expense
was a little serious! . . .
Un’t this a “thriving look
ing community” . . . when
you ride along and see all
the building tne o'idin"'
the remodeling and painting
and ' repairing going on.
Shelia and Jack are going to
have a lovely “renovation
and addition” real soon by
the looks of the progress
. . . and Tommy is watching
hi* roof go on the now house
next door to the o'ld one. I
think .Clyde and Shirley
Bunch's new one is about to
be finished. We hear there
are others in the “planning
staees.” Sign cf progress!
We wish all the mother;
of the Junior girls (who had
-charge of the WMS program
last week) could have been
there and seen them do so
well in their “MK” program.
(If you don’t know what an
MK is you should have been
there to find out!) The girls
are enjoying their continuing
mission study in Brazil at
regular meeting times this
nrnth. La-1 week they went
out in the churchyard when
thev finished and had a
“pinata” which is common in
Bra-il and Mexico. (Wonder
what that is? . . . Ask your
Junior G.A.). The Inter
mediate girls are planning to
have, their book this next
week we think on a Wednes
day evening. Not certain of
those plans . . . YWA’s will
be coming to hear the Adult
b- ok taught bv Rev. David
Harris next Monday night
. . . November 22 at • the

and women invited. (We

Farm Election Is Important
RALEIGH —The future of

to a large extent on the out
ome of two grower referen

That, in substance, is the
pinion of many top-level
far Heel agricultural lead
ers as expressed in the past
ew days.
In the voting, growers
■ hroughout the nation's cot
ton bell will decide whether
marketing quotas are to re
main in eftect on the 19b6
crop. In addition, growers
in the Tar Heel State will
determine whether to assess
hemselves at the rate of 15'
cents a bale on the next
three crops to continue their
support of the North Caro
lina Cotton Promotion Asso
ciation.
A referendum on pear.ut
marketing quotas for 1966,
967 arid 1968 wilt be held
m the same date.
In each referendum, ap
proval by two- thirds ot
those voting is required foi
ihe issue to carry. Polling
daces will be those destg
•">ted by Agricultural Stab

Anyone with a vote in how
this money is being spent to
educate the children of our
;ounty should be willing to
face the taxpayers every
four years, asking the ques
tion: “Do you approve of the
way I am doing this job?”
The majority of those who
took the time to participate
in the recent straw poll
agreed. But, like the road
bond issue, w? feel there is
nnre interest in our schools
than the poll, indicated.
Progress continues to be
made in our school system,
one that will be strengthened
even' more with a merger of
,he two administrative units ,
Both the city and county
boards are pledged to this
merger and the question of
how to select the board
members in the future is but
one of the questions to be
resolved. This should be done"

?o a united front can be pre

OUR LOSS —This week’s
‘News From Rbcky "Hock
Section” arrived on schedule
Monday afternoon. However,
he envelope was a mite
heavier. -
Included with the regular
INpatch was a noth which
•ve rather had been emitted
We’ll share it with you:
“With this week’s column
an “News From Rocky HOck
Section” I am completing al
most a year of this kind of
-ommunity and church news
Because time has become r
problem in getting, this col
umn done each week (and I
don’t think we have missed
one all year, even though \v«
have been away many times)
1 find it necessary to end
'his kind of writing will
(his edition of The Chowan
Herald.
There are many other
‘hings involved in this de
-ision, but so I will not bf
‘misquoted as I have been
done a few times in the past”
T want to make it clear thal
1 am terminating the column
(at least for awhile) be
cause it has been taking timr
from other tilings that I
feel are more pressing, an" 1
because I think someone
?ise could do this kind of
reporting just as easily as I
have done it. It is with re
gret that we have decided
this. '
I appreciate, more than I
can say, thp courtesv of The
Chowan Herald staff' in al
lowing me' so many ‘editorial
liberties’ in my reporting
and in allowing me almost
inlimited space in doing it
1 appreciate also the many
kind things that several of
you have said about reading
and enjoying the ‘news
column’.”
Mrs. Thurman Allred.
Mrs. Allred has been a
faithful correspendent foil
The Chowan Herald and she
has gone the second mile to
report events from the Rocky
Hock section. She is a busy
lady and we are sorry the
demands on her time were
such she had to make this
decision.
.We haven’t found a re
placement for her but hope
to do so in the very near
future. We wish her wel! in
her future endeavors.
