ImVlKft TCI OniTMTY JVitll announcements coming from Jriotts county seats that the coun ty weilare boaras nave Deen appoint ed, nothing appears to have been doneby the commissioners of Per- qnarisns' as to the appointment ofj the f M member of this board which ''the 'commissioners are required to make:' ' The County Welfare Board, which is a provision of the Social Securi ty Act, will have very important duties to perform. Its duties will be chiefly to act in an advisory capaci ty to the County Welfare Officer in conjunction with the Board of Coun ty Commissioners. They will have something to say as to who of the aged, and of the dependent children are to receive benefit payments under th Social Security Act, and how much shall be paid in each case. This welfare board should be com posed of. the strongest citizens oi the county, persons familiar with conditions in the county, who know the. people of the county, who are interested in the welfare of the county and who are willing to give of thefr time for the public good. Both Chowan and Pasquotank Counties have announced the com pete personnel of their county wel- boards. Both of these counties are represented on their county wel fare . boards by high types of citi zens. The citizens of Perquimans will await yjjth interest the announcement ' of the board of county commissioners as to their appointee. IT WILL PAY For every dollar that the county pays to dependent children and to old people under the provisions of the Social Security Act, which goes into effect on July 1, there will be paid in to the county three more. If the county, pays -an individual $5.00, the state government matches that a mount, and the federal government then steps in with an amount equal ing the total, with the $20; is paid to the individual, only five of which is furnished by the county. In no case will the federal government p: more than , $15 to an individual under this plan, which means that in no case can the county pay . more than $7.50, which would result in the individual receiving $30. These old age and dependent child ren benefit payments, are going to be spent right here among us. The local business firms will get their share of the money thus put into circulation and the county will speed ily get back its bread cast upon the waters. We will not merely be help ing our unfortunate people when we allow them help under this plan, but we shall be helping ourselves. Let us hope that this angle of the situation will be given due consid eration when applications from the needy of our county come up for con sideration. G. A. AND R. A.

When the farm women from all over the Albemarle gather here next week for the annual district meeting, as in all such gatherings all over this land of ours, this pray er, the Collect of the Woman's Club, will be said. The words, written by Miss Mary Stewart, are familiar to club women everywhere, for it is not only in home demonstration clubs, but in clubs of various kinds the prayer is used. Each meeting of the Woman's Club of Hertford has for many years been opened with a song, followed by this prayer. At every home demonstration club meeting in the county it is. used, so that our own women have grown to love the sim ple words which express the desire of so many hearts, and many have committed them to memory.
