Duplin County Is fortunate in hav
ing some very fine ministers in all
denominations. Many of them are
; quite frequent visitors in The Dup
lin Times office and we have rame
rather spirited and interesting con
versations. The ministers of . the
Warsaw churches visit us Very often
and Warsaw can certainly not com-,
plain about their ministers. We hav
en't seen a finer group of men any
where and they work , together so
beautifully. They have certainly dis
missed the old joke that used to be
told around Warsaw when , I was a
child about the man ' riding Into
town and hearing the . Methodist's
singing, "Will there Be Any Stars
In My Crown," and riding a little
farther he came to the Baptist Cbu-
rtn ana they were singing t'No Not
One,", and then as he rode by the
Presbyterian Church they were
gleefully singing "Oh That Will Be
oiory To Me." m'.:':;-:
' My good friend, Mr.' Henry Beik,
Editor of the, Goldsboro News
Argus, has been 'very understanding
and encouraging to me since I took
over running The Duplin Times -or
rather letting it run me. So when' 1
first started my work he wrote to
me and suggested that I, write a
column telling of my ' experiences
with running a newspaper. It frigth
tened me so badly, that it has taken
me two years to get up courage
enough to start one, and if my sub
scribers start dropping off I shall
?o see "Mr. Henry" and tell him to
oe carefully who he advises" to
write. As - some writer has said
something to the effect that much
writing could have been, left In the
