THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 17, 1966 A LIFT FOR TOD A Y God. is love. -I John 4:8. U)ve; is the focal point of Christianity, and is not born of fear but springs from a heart of affection and gratitude. Almighty God, may we love so genuinely that others may see Thee in our lives and be drawn to Thee. Heart Sunday -- And You The heart and blood vessel diseases are now costing this nation about 1,000,000 lives yearly. They account for about 54 per cent of all deaths. Latest statistics indicate that about 14,600,000 adult Americans suffer from heart disease, and an additional 6,900,000 are victims of hypertension. In addition to the 14,600,- 000 persons with definite heart disease, there are 13,000,000 persons with suspect heart disease. Is the outlook hopeless? Not at all. For those aged below 65, the tide has seemingly begun to turn. Since the onset of massive cardiovascular research pro grams in 1950 there has been a 15 per cent decline in the death rate from heart and blood vessel disease among men and women aged below 65. For men aged 45-64 the overall decline was V/ 2 per cent, 1950-1962, despite an actual in crease in the death rate due to heart at tack. Now is the time to remember that this life-or-death fight has one central, spear heading force your Heart Association It has been in the thick of the battle since the first Heart Fund Campaign in 1949. It has the support, confidence and direc tion .of 30,000 physicians and scientists — men and women who represent the mosl authoritative ixidv of opinion on hears disease in the United States. Now also is the time to remember that yon have a very definite stake in this fight, since hearts come only one to r customer. So he generous. When your Heart Sunday volunteer calls at your home, give her a warm welcome. Open your heart, and your pocketbook. Give —so more will live Farm Prosperity Moot With farm costs zooming to a new rec on! high, farmers were no doubt disap pointed in the failure of President John son’s State of the Union message to give any serious consideration to growing in flat ion. Instead the President called- not only for acceleration of the domestic war on poverty with billions of new spending, but proposed international programs to edu cate all of the world and eliminate di scase in all parts of the globe. All this is to be done wfyile fighting a war in Viet Nam. - The elimination of poverty and the elimination of disease are commendable goals. The issue js the merits of the political , boondoggling inherent in ill conceived". politically-oriented crash pro grams.' 1 ’ Apparently the Chief Executive is un disturbed by the recorded scandals and wanton waste of his poverty programs. While the President appears to believe 'that lie has discovered the secret to per petual _ prosperity, government figures show that farm costs hit a new all-time |x?ak during the period ending December 15. 1965. Yet only scant Recognition was given to agriculture in the State of the Union message, with a report that average farm income was up 40 per cent over the last five years, and 22 per cent over last year. While the President gave the impress ion that his Administration was respon sible for agriculture’s claimed financial success, the facts are quite different. The President used average farm in come. apd the gains are due in part to the decline in the number of farms. Farm income did improve in 1965 over 1964, but $2.2 billion came from direct government payments to farmers. In 1966, payments are expected to rise to 26 per cent of net income. Probably the only farmers who liked the President’s message were the wool powers. Johnson is pulling their product & |imwmHiiwiiiiiHmuiimninHimiiMHHM«w«wi Jack McMullan, God willing, will reach his 84th birthday August 13, and he tells me some people try to conceal their age. He says he has a theory that every honorable year one lives should be a star in his crown, so the more the better. Whether or not it will have any effect on one reaching or passing the four score mark, Jack sent me the following: Winter Daily Routine of a retired, but contented, Octogenarian. Who is thankful that his vision is good and his mentality remains unimpaired; and his physical con dition is good for one of his vintage who has had four major operations: 7 A. M.—Aroused by radio on Clock and then tunc in for the morning news. 7:10 A. M.—Shave, make up bed and at tire myself in casuals and a red necktie. 7:30 A. M.—Breakfast. After which wash dishes (if wife permits). 8:30 A. M.—Spend hour reading, morning paper. 9:30 A. M.—Replenish food in bird feeders. 10 A. M.—Receive mail. Including thi Congressional Record which I have received daily since my 21st year. Commune with the Congress one hour, 11 A. M.—Answer all correspondence anc draw cartoons giving expression to my views of men and measures, and send them t( various news media. 12:30 P. M.—Lunch. 2 P. M.—Spend one hour each day delving into the wonderful love of my Encyclopedia 3:30 P. M.—Take constitutional stroll around the premises. 3:45 P. M.—Take one hour cat nap. 5:30 P. M.—Have game of canasta with wife. 6 to 7 P. M.—One hour TV news. 7 P. M.—Dinner. 7:30 to 9 P. M.—TV program. 9 P. M.—To bed. Tune in short wave radio for one hour, journey around tht world via the air waves with the speed oi sound. 10 P. M.—Turn off my memory switch and turn on my forgetter switch and gently enter the realm of Morpheus and temporarj oblivion until 7 A. M., the next morning. Am I bored with life? Positively not: My only worry is that the days are too short and art is long and time is fleeting. Please note that the above is Jack’s win ter schedule, for I see no period listed when he sits in a chair in his boat back of his louse and enjoys fishing if he catches any thing or not. Incidentally, Jack was among he first persons I became acquainted with ■vhen coming to Edenton back in 1923 anc it’s a real pleasure to number him among my best friends over the years. He was very helpful back in those days, but I hard ly think I can adopt his schedule on my march toward the four score mark. Then, too, in reading the Congressional Record Tack clipped a page from a 1955 issue in -vhich were listed Presidents who were members of the Masonic fraternity. They nclude George Washington, Thomas Jeffer son, James Madison, James Monroe, Andrew Jackson, James K. Polk, James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, James A. Garfield, Wil iam McKinly, Theodore Roosevelt, Wil iam H. Taft, Warred G- Harding, Frartklin D. Roosevelt and Harry Truman. In the irticlc it also lists Masons who signed the Declaration of Independence, among whom were William Hooper, Jb.4cph Hewes and John Penn of North Carolina. In tlu- mail last week was an attractive postcard picturing Bourbon Street in New Orleans. Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd C. Bunch were down that way and on the card was written: “Wish you and Kate were here with us. We would liven up the town ind again be 16.” An interesting letter was also received from Harry Smith, Jr.,, foi jpet secretary of Edenton Chamber* ofU Conn r#;rce. .Harry wrote: , V ‘'* , “Dear Buff: * It’s been a long time since you have heard from me and I apologize. But I can assure you and our other friends in- Edenton that you all have 1 been in our thoughts many, many times since we left, despite hte lack of physical evidence. “This job keeps me snowed under—my desk looks like yours used to. I think we have more paper work in our sport of boat racing than they have in the Pentagon. Also, I am out of town a good deal, so magazines and papers pile up at home. I often do not read the Herald until weeks after it arrives and sometimes not at all. “I am very glad to know that Edenton is making continual progress in all directions— industry, tourism, education and agricul ture. I still feel the county and Edenton have a bright future under the leadership of Mayor Mitcnener, the Chamber of Com merce, the County Commissioners and other groups. It is bound to be the hub of activity in Northeastern North Carolina. “Best wishes and kindest regards to you and my friends in Edenton.” o Then Carlton Haskett, who lives in. Ro | Chester, Indiana, sent a letter complaining the* he did not get his January 27th issue of The Herald. In part he said, ‘The same Saturday night the mercury registered 12 above in Edenton, the mercury got down to 18 below in Rochester. It must have got ten so cofld in Edenton that I didn’t get my January 27th issue of The Chowan Herald. After 32 years of getting The Herald, you, of course, are excused.” But a few days later Friend Haskett wrote: “I received my Chowan Herald dated January 27 on Feb ruary 8. It must have been in! a snow bank some place.” o Among the large number of subscribers now renewing their subscriptions,' to The Herald was Mrs. Sam Allen,.now living in Salisbury, N. C. A note read: “Kate is great. Keep up the good work.” o—' : .' *• Rudolph Dale had a very busy .time Sat urday blowing up balloons for youngsters to give for a contribution to the Heart Fund. Last year Rudolph filled thtf bal loons by blowing in them, but this year, I noted, he used a bicycle pump—a little easier, no doubt. O * ' i * And talking about bicycles, fascinated-by- a fecal youngster -- THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 17, IWM. Poverty Meeting Report Is Givien .“Home economists in North Carolina have an unique responsibility to as sst low-income families,” ac cording to Miss Doris Rag land, vocational home eco nomics instructor at D. F. Walker High School. Miss Ragland was among 200 key home economists in the state who attended a workshop, “Working With Low-Income Families,” Feb ruary 10 -12 in Raleigh, sponsored by the North Ca rolina Home Economics As sociation. “We attended the work shop to learn, to 'be inspir 'd to greater effort and to become more personally in volved. In workshop ses sions wc saw how home economists already are as sisting low-income families through such areas as leaching, housing, health and welfare,” she said. “As a result of the work shop we are now able to go back lo our own area of the state to give other home economists the information ve received at the work shop aril to develop more 'ffeotive programs to meet ’he needs of low-income "amilies.” At the opening session of he workshop Howard larnhill, health educator for 'he Mecklenburg County Health Department, said: ‘We must see a ‘grassroots’ ipproach at the neighbor lood level. The poor will break out of poverty if giv sa the chance.” Program speakers included Dr. Frank Riessman, au ’hor of “The Culturally De orived Child,” and some 13 representatives of state or ganizations and agencies. around a good bit on a uni cycle. All he has to stay on top of the one-wheeled rig a seat and a couple pedals. Gives him a good chance to wave at his friends with both hands if he wants to. o Edenton Rotarians, headed by Ed Bass, will stage a pancakes and sausage sup per and breakfast Friday night and Saturday morning of this week. The meals will be served at the Bar ker house, 5 to 8 o’clock Friday night and 7 to 9 o’clock Saturday morning. There are plenty of tickets for sale, for each Rotarian is armed with a batch of 20. Besides, the tickets can be purchased at Mitchener’s Pharmacy and HolloweU’s Drug Store. Ed says he has enough supplies lo feed a small army and he hopes nary a bit will be left over. Proceeds go to youth pro jects in Edenton, so here’s hoping a “small army" will turn out and help the Ro tarians to make some money. A HERALD CLASSIFIED JOE THORUD How much I will go up in smoke?
