Mine enemies would daily swallow me, 0 thou most High What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee. Psalms 56:1, 2, 3. WE SHALL SEE! Miss Ruth Davenport, Superinten dent of Public Welfare in Perqui mans, and the members of the Coun ty Welfare Board, which is compos ed of Charles E. Johnson, W. F. C. Edwards and Mrs. V. N. Darden, took seriously the suggestion of the State Board of Charities and Public Wel fare and gave their time and atten tion toward making up an estimate of the amount of tax it would be neces sary to levy in Perquimans in order to raise the money necessary for carrying out the Social Security Pro gram in Perquimans, These four persons, who are quite capable of making such an estimate, recommended to the State Board that it would require a ten-cent levy to carry out the program in this coun ty. But it turns out that the recom mendation of the folks who ought to know is disregarded, and when the budget fixed by the Division of Pub lic Assistance of the Welfare Depart ment at Raleigh was sent back to the county it was shown that it would require more than a fifteen-cent levy to take care of the expense in Perquimans. The County Commissioners of Per quimans refused to accept the bud get. Whether the commissioners can get away with this remains to be seen. Anyhow, it is refreshing to see that they have the spunk to at tempt it. t Carolina Tuesday evening.. . Shirley Perry, is visiting her grandmother, Mrs. Daisy Perry, for a few days. The little son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Pierce, who has been quite sick, is somewhat better. Roy Pierce returned to his home in Norfolk Tuesday after spending several days with his family here. Walton Whitehead of New Holland and N. C. C C. Camp spent the week end with his mother, Mrs. P. L Whitehead. WHITESTON NEWS SLOW BUT SURE There is not a great deal of fan fare, no flourish of trumpets or ringing of bells; nobody is making a great deal of noise about the matter. In a word, there isn't overmuch en thusiasm evident in the membership campaign of the Hertford Council This is probably well. A slower growth probably indicates a better foundation, a more stable structure. We do not wish an organization which will die when the tumult and the shouting dies. Better not to have the tumult or the shouting. However, slowly but surely the membership is growing. This in spite of the fact that it is mid-summer, a time when everything slows up, when people are going and com ing, when it is difficult to assemble a group of persons for any occasion, when it is too hot to do more than we must. And the organization will grow. It will thrive. Bear in mind that its objective is to make the Town of Hertford a better place in which to' live. CHAPANOKE NEWS Mrs. P. L.
