THIS WEEK'S BIBLE THOUGHT LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR: There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear; because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. I John 4:18. I' . THE SITUATION HASNT ' CHANGED MUCH i As everybody knows, one result of the depression which was common to most cities and towns was vacan stores and houses. This situation has, never developed in Hertford. Strange to say, there is not and ha? not been for any- length of time vacant store or shop in the place and very few vacant dwellings. While preparing to write some thing concerning this situation, with a suggestion that it might be well to build, there fell into the hands of the editor some copies of an old newspaper published in Hertford thirty-four years ago. An editorial printed in the issue of Sept. 19, 1901, of The Hertford Herald is reprinted below: "With plenty of money, land and lumber lying idle, there is not a vacant house in Hertford, and home seekers who wish to locate here are forced to go into neighboring cities in order to find houses to live in. "Hertford is a progressive town. Business is good in all lines. Labor, skilled and unskilled, is - in constant demand at good wages. Prosperity seems -willing to thrust itself upon us. "What are we doing? "Actually grasping prosperity by the neck and choking it off. "We cry out for labor, but when labor comes we have no houses for the laborer's family. They go away distrusted, and report conditions to others who naturally refuse there after" to consider Hertford as a place of good residence. "This opportunity to make Hert ford a city instead of a town won't hansr around, heroine, forever. We would not be surprised if the tide in the affairs of the town is somewhere in the vicinity of the flood just now. Presently maybe we'll, have houses and no tenants. "The way to take advantage of the present and push Jhe town ahead is to seize the tide at its flood and loi low on to the municipality's greater fortunes. Build!?1 PAYING THE,, EDITOR A kindly gentleman, his shoulders somewhat rounded by honest labor, but as agile and young as ever, came into this newspaper office the other day. His visit "was no different from that of many of our other friends. He had merely come in to pay his subscription. He had come a dis tance of 12 miles. But more than just "paying up" for his paper, he offered profound apologies for being in arrears on his subscription a little over nine months. As he paid the $3.00 for two years he remarked, "It is a-shame to owe for your home town paper. We all get it, read it, and ' enjoy it. I new I owed you, andre--v cently told my wife I was going to put away a quarter, or dime, occasion, f- ally so that I'd have enough to pay ! up the next time I came to town. Country editors should be paid for their work. They need it. Editors do a great service for us, not only r furnishing news about people we know, but somehow , we 'understand your editorials, better than those we read in other papers. Reckon it's just because they are written so plainly! Yes, sir, we all ought to keep our subscriptions paid up better than we do." .- i And he went away smiling. jTo nave one of our friends speak to knowingly of the actual work and v expense connected with publishing even a small weekly paper, and to thus nay tribute to our writing, which sometimes we fwonde : whether ' the ' rape would be. better off without . maker us proud of pur job, even if it Isn't of proportions : which warreut' the wearing of a white 'collar and necktfe-From the Foley (Ala,) On lAT'GULAR DEBATERS ' CHOSEN .AT SCHOOL r:mice' White, Joyce Harrell, Prue " y and Grace Knowles constitute : ; 'atingteam of the Perquimans yo'jng people were chosen - " ' in the preliminary ," l hst week, and wilf take 'i triangular debate to "be - in March.

' , - i H If it should develop that the Fed eral government funds about which there is so much talk just now, and which neighboring towns are prepar ing to ask a .share in, are to be grant, ed to those towns which will make a contribution, it is my belief that we as a town should do something about this matter. The watches were certainly cheap, no doubt about that. And if they had continued to run all would have been well.. But alas, they didn't. One fellow got one that only runs when he does. The minute that boy sits down his watch knocks off. It won't run another second until he starts walking, and then it startes ticking right away. That's pretty exasper ating, because the fellow naturally gets tired walking. It is said that probably a couple of dozen of these fine looking time-pieces were disposed of during the few hours that the stranger was in town. A number of folks bought them, s they say. The news comes through the grapevine. I am telling you af 'twas told to me. Naturally, the folks who bought the watches don't enjoy talking about it. Congratulations to the debating teams of the Perquimans High School. Perquimans High ought to win thir year. Remember, girls, we are all pulling for you. "The Five O'clock Man" is gone. No more will Worley Nixon be seen each afternoon, with his lunch pail on hif arm, making his regular trip to the mill. He made the last trip last week. For thirty-seven years, a life-time, Worley Mixon worked nights, and probably no more faithful worker could be found anywhere. For a number of years he was em ployed by the Albemarle Lumber Company and for the past eighteen years he has made his daily trip to the plant of the Major & Loomif Company. That is, he made the trip daily ? up until the government 'rode went into effect, and then only on certain days. Rain or shine, in winter and in summer, "The Five O'clock Man," as he got to be called, passed on Vs regular beat from his home on South Church Street, out across the bridge, over the Causeway, on to the mill. He rarely missed a night at the mill, where he worked as night fireman. He was never late. He never hurried. He usually walked alone. At the same time each after noon you could count on .Worley Y passing that way. It was said that clocks had been set by Worley's passing. It has been estimated that Worley Mixon walked something like thirty thousand miles, on his regular daily trip to and from the mill throughout the period that he worked. What a lot of changes he had seen ! Little children playing about the door-ways of the home he passed every day grew to manhood and womanhood, married and were rn is J uig families, as Worley passed bac1 and forth on his daily trips. He war the only eye-witness to the traged: which shocked the community foui years ago, when Miss Sallie McMullan and her sister, Mrs. Julian Jessup were drowned as the car in wnicl they were riding Was backed into tin river from the McMullan lawn. Bui for the fact that it was Mixon'? regular time for passing then, nobody would have seen the car as it sani beneath the water. And it was Mixon who found the body of John A. White, who was kill ed in an accident at the mill ; sbmc yeara ago. , Worley Mixon was a good man steady, dependable, regular. " : ' V "Mr. W. F. a Edwards was awak ened Monday night by hearing some of his chickens cackle.

Weeks, City Market.", . .J From time' to time extracts from these papers will appear ' in this column. Below is repainted a portion of an editorial under date of August ?9, 1907, which stilt holds good: "We maintain that we have right here in Perquimans County beauty but little thought of or appreciated by our own people." Do you wish to look upon a scene as splendid as ever the fisher folk of the Mediteranean looked upon? Theni stand, -on the shore of Perquimans River at Hert ford harbor some semi-cloudy morn ing and watch the sun rise above the fleecy figured clouds that gather by the river's far 'eastern shore. You will see every color and tint the eye can conceive reflected in the clouds, and on the shimmering bosom of the river in prismatic splendor that will make your heart leap and bound with exquisite pleasure, if neglect of your soul has not blinded your eye to the beautiful. Presently; as the faint breath of morning! steals over the water, tiny wave crests will be tipped with the sun's silver-burnished rays and the gentle swells will roll on to the ocean in a path of glory."
