TWO FOLD CONGRATULATIONS Ciencn Dees, assisiar.! cashier cl ihe Branch Banking ar.c Trust Ccmpcmy in Goldsboro, hcs beer, offered the position ns lex collector foT V/ayre county, to succeed the late C. W. Peacock As th:s is being written, cn Tuesday. Mr Dees has rot indicated if he will accept the position cr net. Hu* that is not the point c! this editorial- al though we do net hesitate to express the hope ; that he will take the :ob. 0 jr wish hare is tc ccngratuicle Mr. Deer I on the fact that the county commissioner? singled him out as a man fitted !cr the job; and to congratulate the 5cctd cl Commissioners or. gc.ng cut end selecting a mar., rather than naming one who has pulled a:! kinds of strings to get the job. This act on the par: of the Commissioners is a trihu'e wed bestowed, iez all who knew Cler.cn Dees know h.rr. to he a man whose in tegrity and whose training qualify him in a fine way for the work required cl a tax col lector. This act cn the pert of the Commissioners is not only a tribute to Mr. Dees but it is also a tribute to the Beard itself. It shows that the bccnd is desirous ol serving the people, and that they have placed this desire ahecd oi “playing politics.“ We are confident that many 'receptive'’ candidates for the job oJ tax collector could have been found; and we suspect that the names cf several were betore the Commissioners—though we have not in quired into that—but the Commissioners, in stead cf selecting a man who was SEEKING the office, went cut and selected a men who, they knew, could, do the job as it ought ‘o be done—and would do the job as ,t ought tc be dene, ii he decides to take it. ^ So. congratulations to the Bocrd c: Com missioners and to Mr. Dees. Ana, in speaking of this, we are reminded ci a similar bidder; which occurred several months ego. The Goldsboro Beard of Aldermen desired a city attorney to succeea Wyatt Blake. They had applications before them, applications ol good men. But they se.edec W. A. Dees, crcther cl Clenon Dees, for c:‘y attorney, even -.hough he had not applied fc: the job. That is, they selected the mar. for the job rather than let some mar. select the fob. We have done so before, but again we wish to congratulate the Beard of Aldermen and W. A. Dees for the same reasons we congratulate the Beard of Commissioners and C.encn Decs. Congratulate the Board ol Aldermen for choosing a man of character and abi.tty, foi placing service ahead of politics, and congrat ulate Mr. Dees for the honor bestowed upon him. And like his brother, he is worthy cf that honor. Ramblin' 'Round JL. Out rambling* this week (ock us into two sections of the county end cn one trip out of the county. On Sunday Mrs. Roberts and I at'er.ced the Neuse Baptist Association at Union church, a few miles south of Seven Springs. While there we me: quite a number of people we knew irom the various churches in the Association. In reaching Unicn we went tc LaGrar.ge and then turned westward and crossed the nver at Hardy's bridge In going over this road I found that much cf it was new to me. I had never beer, ah ci the roac from La Grange to Unlcr, ar.d I was glad 1c have op portunity to see that section. I believe the crops 'hese two points ere the pre' tiect I have seen this year. Union church .s jus* ctctoss the read from the home of C. Blanchard Jones, with whom J was In high school at Winterville sorr.e sev eral years ago. In fact. C. P. and ! reamed together my senior year. I recall *ha* one summer while I was cl Wir.ierville a group of us ieilows came- tc 8ever. Spnr.gs on the Fourth of July. During the afternoon a heavy rain cam®, so heavy that we had to push the car througn c creek after leaving Seven Springs With so much water on the ground wc decided to spend the night with C. B., and the trip Sunday was the first time I had beer back in his home section in many years I don’t recall that I have beer in th.s socmen 3lnce the present Union church was stared. I d.dn't say ’ built" for the poopir. at Union started them a brick chuioh back about 1928 and got or.e s’ory r.f it completed and then 'he depression stepped tnem They have a comfortable place of worship in the basement of ’he church, but I hope that with improving conditions tney may be able tc •..vr* mcr.y peco '<? tram o', debar: C'i i:c;n a number of ether churches • knew. Moctra:c: J. C. Hough sme that be: had revei known - ’he Ur.:on peep-e tc spread o dinner when there *.v asn t p.enty to sa* and enough tc feed another crowd, and Sunday was no except:on tc th.s. Another crowd tme sice oi the oj-e there for dinner ccu.d have been led wirrt the iocd left cn the teb.e when those there hac finished eating. That's one thing about these Wayne ccjnly folks when they give a chnr.er they give a dinner. That applies to individuals ns well as chuicr.es tco. While we were 31 Union 3ene cr.d Peggy were with them grandparents, Mr. cr-d M*s E. D. Hani at Pixevil,?, sc we rushed tack tc see how ‘hey were geti.ng along. 3er.e has spent a :.amber ol days eway trern us rut that was about 'he Erst time Peggy had gene visiting without vs. She get along .ust hne and gave no trouble at ail. Alter reaching Fjkevhle we rede out oy the ole Barden farm where the Musgraves new live. That used tc ceJcr.c tc Mr. Horn's rolks and he ...<ss 1c r de cut there jus* cs I hhe tc go cut ic my eld home place. We drove by crr.d visited cr:e:ly with Mrs. Lillie Dees, mother cl W. A., Cler.cn and '.Val ter Dees, ci this county. Tnere we icund Walter visiting with her and in a short while Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Dees and Mrs. Does' mother, a Mrs. Smith ct Maryland, came for a visit. 1 notice that many people call Mrs. Dees Cousin Lillie" and I wonder it all ci them are kin tc her or if the people just call her thal as they used tc call my father "Uncle Urb," whether they were k.n :a us or net. Mrs. Dees is a love able character and the phrase A Mother .n Israel1' fils well. Mender,’ ahem con Mis. Roberts and i drove over to Wake Forest fer a pari cf ihe com mencement exercises. We attended the Alum ni Banquet ar.d there saw many cf the cid Wake Fores: men v.’hc haa retained icr ihe day. Carrol'. Weathers. Paleiah attorney was ihe only crhei member of the class, of 19^2 I saw. but ! saw many of the ie.lows 1 knew in college, but who Belonged to other classes. I was especailly glad 1c meet many of the teachers 1 kr.ew when 1 was there—Dr. W. L. | Pot eat. Dr. Hubert Pot eat, Dr. G. W. Faschall, | Dr. T. D. Kitchen, row president Do. C. S. ’Black. Professor Carroll. Professor Bradhury. Dr. C. C. Carpenter, Professor H. A. ~or.es anc ethers. I espec.ally like the way Dr. Hubert Feted i welcomes the old fellows tack, to the Hill. 1 doubt if any man in the college meets more old men as they return. That's fine, toe, for the old men like tc see the teachers ar.d they like to run into some cf them who are around the administration building extending a welcome 1c those who return. Dr. Hubert enjoyed meet ing the rr.er. ar.d they enjoyed meet.r.g him. Another thur.g about Dr. Hubert. While 1 was talking to hum a senior came by and said, ' Dt Poteat I’d like tc speak to you for just about c minute and c hail if you cits not too busy. After the brief conversation with the senior Dr Poteat came back and said, "I have >us learned ci one cf the rewards a teacher gets.' Said he, “When that boy was c freshman he was cn rny Latin class. I cave a ‘est and aJtei the test announced that cne boy had cheatec on that examination, but that if he had the "guts" to come to me ar.d talk it over I'd con sider letting it stop there, otherwise it woulc go to the Senate Committee. That bey carr.( that night to see me. Just a minute ago he called me aside to thank me for what 1 hac done for him, sayir.g fhet my talk had helpec him to make a man of himeif." Thai s Lne to know that he had helpec someone, when by having taken cmcthei course he might have beer, kicked out of col lege and his life ruined. One alumr/ae—I forgotten bus name bul be lieve he was frcrn Albemarle—was attending b.s Sfcih commencement without having miss eel one slr.ce he graduated there 58 years ago ji've neeri pretty loyal in returning to the col lege I have missed only two or three com rner.cemcn's. but I am sure I will never eua :he record of hlrn who has attended 50 time* :ri succession; and 1 doubt If any person hag equaled that record. I wondered if Di. W. L Potecr has done that well; but I expect thal when he studied m Europe seme years ago he was not able tc yet back for commencement | ' I hope tc attend many more commence [there, In lac!. I have no objection to beginning [now and going for 58 or more. Gene will be going up there some of these | days—several years from now—and I'll be going back then; nut I’ll not wal* for that, far 1 love to go back to Wake Forest. Some how Wake Fores’ men love Waxo Forest and I am no exception to that. I especialy enjoyed Dr Wingate Johnson's Alumni Address, and others did too. judging from tne applause. Dr. G. W. Paschall reads Ramblin' Round as regular as any of you Wayne county folks do; arid he is very kind in what he says of it.

But a work sheet must be filed with the county office if a grower is to receive any payments He pointed out that there are two leasers why work sheets must be signed on or before June 12.
