.Y. MAY 13, 1928 PAG3 HViJ i I WHAT .".itV. TUIKJI rim UNITED STATES SENATOR . Ae members oil. Congress consider ? legislation of vital importance to ttie country and endeavor to speed the , wheels of Industry and ' commerce, they find inspiration and hope in the ' faces of many thousands of young sters coming te . Washington at this season, Perhaps never before have there been greater opportunities for youth to see Washington and learn i the functions and objectives of government. Events of the last week are a case in point. In one parade alone, some ' 11,000 youngsters in their early teens, representing school safety patrols in -eighteen states and the national cap ital marched down Constitution Avenue. i I -The significance of the youth move ments in our country today can not ,be overestimated. It is only neces sary to compare them with what is taking place abroad to find new hope at home. t In many -countries boys and girls .are learning military drills, the use of fire arms, and how to protect i themselves from the ravages of war. They are being reared in the belief that war will come. They are grow ing up in an atmosphere of suspicion and distrust. Compare that situation with whet is taking place in the United States. Here we have many millions of youngsters enlisted in great move ments that have as their purpose . self-betterment and public service. The school safety patrols, Boy Scouts and other groups too numer ous to mention, are all being taught respect for their elders. They are being given to understand that world peace is possible only when people have in their hearts respect for au thority and good will toward others. Two years ago, President Roosevelt in addressing a large group of youngsters on the White House lawn said in part: "The future belongs to youth aid when youth voluntarily as sumes helpful activities like yours , for the benefit . of the . entire com munity, I for one, feel ever so much more confident in regard to the fu ture -your future and the future of , the country.". ,., It is difficult for those in Washing ton who take the time to greet and talk with groups of youngsters who come here, to have deep-rooted fears for the future. There are in our country , today men and women who question the future of our institu tions and even our form of govern ment. But there is ample evidence t. i j- Wis " toward tomorrow with full hope and confidence.

Former Residents A -7 " Visit Rutenbergs ' v J , Mr. and Mrs." & G. Scott Bell, of Norfolk,. Va., are guests of Mr. and: Mra .vSimnn Rntnnhenr this week. ' Mr. and Mrs. Bell, who have lived in Norfolk for fifty years, were for merly residents of Hertford, having left here some years beore going to Norfolk to live. ' They visit the Rut enberg family at frequent intervals and have always kept in close touch with Hertford. While Mr. and Mrs. Bell enjoy the association of a number of the con temporaries of their youth, they have many young friends as well, for this delightful couple do not appear to be old'folks, having kept abreast of the times, and taking a lively interest in the things of the day. Mr. Bell en joys driving his car and always drives down from his home in Nor folk. Incidentally, both Mr. and Mrs. Bell were attendants at the wedding of Miss Minnie McMullan and the late K. R. Newbold, which took place in the old Methodist Church in Hertford on May 12, 1880. Two others of that wedding party of 58 years ago, not including the bride, who with her husband celebrated their golden wed ding anniversary the year before his ideath, seven years ago, are living. They include Mrs. C. F. Sumner, Sr., who was then Miss Mamie Newbold, of Hertford; and Mrs. Oscar Mc Mullan, of Elizabeth City, who was the former Miss Mollie Whedbee, of Hertford. This makes five of the party still alive. Mrs. Bell, who at the time of the wedding was Miss Sue Arps, and Mr. Bell were married the year following the Newbold - McMullan wedding. Others in the party included Miss South Jackson, who later became Mrs. Robert White, of Edenton; Miss Leila Amis, who married Gaither Morgan; Mr. Riddick, of Gatesville; Mr. Tanner, William Newbold, and Hon. T. G. Skinner. Mrs. Newbold, who was calling on Mrs. Bell on Wednesday of this week, while the wedding was being discuss ed, in laughing reminiscence said the couple went on a bridal tour to Beth el. One reflects that it probably took as long to drive a pair of horses over the roads of that day as it would to drive a car to Norfolk on our roads. litils Bobby Jordan , 'it Codies Big Carp "The beaming countenance of Bobby Jordan was enough to convince any body .who saw the small boy with the big fish that he had oaugui, the big gest 'fish that has been caught in Hertford this spring.
