UUUQCl inijwri.Ti \*v<v.T-rryr' DAY BY DAY — By Knight The One Thing better than suc cess is to be worthy of success! * * * Human Relationship is a God given benefit. No person ever lived but whose life was touch ed and influenced by others; no life but what was made the bet ter by proper contact and rela tionship. The one chief need and want in life is to have some body who will make us do the best we can. * * * Much Oblige! Day By Day, on behalf of the entire staff of Dup lin’s Best Weekly Newspaper, and himself, acknowledges with a very deep sense of gratitude .and.appreciation, the many kind expressions of satisfaction and pleasure extended us on the ad vent of our Annual Straw berry and Festival Edition. We -would be spared from “big headedness” and conceit, but such compliments afford us a large measure of satisfaction. It is, indeed, a great and good feel ing and solace to know that our sincere,efforts were not in vain; that our purpose was accom plished and recognized. Such recognition lends determination and inspiration that will, we trust, enhance our future efforts and opportunities to render more and better service. To know that a job has been well done is, in itself, its own re ward! * * * Human Nature is a funny thing. In fact, it can well be .classed in the category of “The Unexplained Wonders of the World”. People are loath to re cognize the good in their fellow men, but are most sensitive to the little “slip” or mistake made by a struggling soul. A most common error that a lot of us make is to become wrongly in fluenced by the intricate inclina tions of the public, and get the “what’s-the-use” attitude con concerning our conduct. The fact that ouy good qualitifl&.may nnjk always be recognized is no justi fiable reason, nor alibi, for us to elect to pursue the downward path. A universal duty among humans is to r-\ stop, nor be satisfied, at an;-thing loss than the best that io within us. Another Edict on morals: — ’Twas on the other Sunday morn’ when all around there was tranquility and peace and the atmosphere was charged with sublimity; and we knew the world was a good place in which to live. At the Wallace Methodist Church, a group of the devout had gathered for Sun day school, and one young lady of the ’teen age had with her a devout companion. He insisted on participating in the worship, but his fair owner had more discreet ideas, and tried persua sion to get him to bide his while on the outside. Nothing doing! He was at her side throughout the hour’s service. I would not venture so fay as to elaborate on the “morals of men” in Wal lace, but there’s one sure-shot fafct, and that is that at least, one member of the local dog kingdom is trying to live right, and emulate the characteristics of his owner and be devout to a Great and Noble Cause! * * * Its Hot qnd Dry down here in Duplin. But that’s not news. We all yearn for rain . . . and a-plenty of it, first because it is needed. But there’s another . . . and a big reason why the perpetrator of this column of brain-storming would relish a big shower: he is fond o’ “chaw cu-late” milk shakes, and has a habit of cutting the corner ’round to neighbor Druggist Miller’s Pill Emporium, where he has found the World’s Great est Milk Shake Bargain ... a whole quart o’ it for a dime! "Doc” Miller owns a herd o’ Cows out on his farm; the cows are dry and thirsty, and the flow of milk has all but ceased. "Doc” says his cows, too, need rain, and when it comes they will not be so ding-busted stingy with their milk, and then, when the supply increases, he will give milk shakes free! So, let us now retire to the inner cham ber and engage in a word o’ si lent prayer ... for Rain! * * * I’m No Press Agent for "Doc” Reh and his Washington Decor ating Company, but a word here is most deserving, in regard to the fine decorative ‘dress’ that Wallace’s business places and streets, and the Festival head quarters are sporting this week, as a result of the fine art in this line of work, of which he and his son, Fred R. W. Reh, Jr., are capable. Decorating runs i in the Reh family, and this com pany is now in its fourth gen-i eration of operating in the same! family, with an enviable record of 84 years service. The most of Wallace’s business places are wearing the symbols of Greet ings and Welcome this week; Just a few that are not, for rea sons, probably justified, but best known to the operators of these few places. But at that, 100 per cent, cooperation, like perfection, is a mighty rare thing. Even three, out of Wallace’s four score business interests interviewed, turned a deaf ear to the com mercial and community-spirit preachments of Ye Ad-Man,.and declined their cooperation for the Annual Festival Occasion which is the biggest event in Wallace’s routine history! * * * . Howdy, “Miss Wanoca” upon I the advent of your “new birth” and congratulations upon the fineness of your new and beautiful home. You’ve alwaiys jbeen a valued asset to Wallace, I and your reputation for fine ■shows has long been establish ed. It is gratifying that you de cided to improve your “home stead” surroundings and move into your modern home, right fully termed “The Coastal Sec tion’s Finest”. I’m no gambling man, but will wager that no other town, under the sun, of .pnly seven hundred and some souls, can boast of as nice a theatre as you are! Your own ers have a mighty faith in Wal lace and its surrounding coun tryside and people, to fix you up to the tune of $25,000.00. But, it’s likely that their faith shall not prove a misguided one. Wal lace and this section and their people appreciate the Better Things . . . and you are one of them! They will not let you down, but will rally to your sup port in the large and fine meas ure which you deserve. To Carey and Paul Caudell, we doff the old head-piece, and honestly and sincerely say, Boys, you’re done a mighty wonderful job! "!• * * * Things That Never Happen: Wallace streets deserted, day or night; Osborn Carr missing a “pitcher-show”; Bob Black rid ing ’round in a car other than a Ford; Robert Carr never say ing nary-a-word ’bout fishing; Aubrey Harrell keeping mum on the progress of his various pub licity programs and stunts for Wallace’s benefit; Wiley Know les refusing to discuss insurance and its merits; Miss Eloise Boone, second assistant execu tive secretary of The White House, failing to promptly wait on this scribe when he sallies forth there to dine; Chief Boone, head .of “Wallace’s Finest”, for getting to be polite, courteous and affable to all . . . even to law-breakers; little Roger Acker man timid and refusing to tell you where the name “Roger’s 5, 10 and 25c Store” comes from; Mrs. Hazel Rivenbark never al tering, darning or patching clo thes (but she does always greet one with a cheerful and affable disposition); “Tight-Eye” Wood forgetting how to run “Hesper ious”, the press; the Wallace En terprise staff going to bed early and getting up late, and the per petrator of this column never being Subject to outbursts of journalistic brain-storms, nor re fusing to “let folks have a little Advertising” ... if they catch him in the right mood and make the right approach and plea to him. —.HERBERT L.

A telegram from the Club, containing $5.00 was presented by the Club. A very enjoyable evening was spent by all, but there was a tinge of sad ness when the farewells were said. “Every sweet has its bitter, and every rose its thorn.” —Welcome, Mrs. Roosevelt— Mrs. J. O.
