Tribute Of Respect.

The following resolutions were adopt
ed by the Pleasant Hill Sunday school
September 13, 1908:
WHEREAS, The spirit of r. W. Walker
has been taken to its reward. He was
energetic, active, and impressed by mo-
tiyes of high quality. He Joined the
church quite young, shortly afterwards
united with the Sabbath school and has
been ever since ready and willing to dis
charge any duty incumbent upon him.
As it has pleased God to separate US from
his kind and modest companionship, We
have lost his valiant presence. Therefore
be it resolved:
First, that while we,. with his parents,
sisters and brother, mourn the loss, We
bear submissively to the will Of our
Heavenly Father, believing that He doeth
all things for the best.
Second, that copy of these resolutions
be inscribed in our minute book to his
memory and copy be published in the
county papers.
We, the chosen committee,

Newspaper Grunblers.
Written for THE HERALD.

Y
Grumbling about newspapers is as an
cient as newspapers themselves. And,
notwithstanding the multiplication of
these modern conyeniences, and the
sleepless efforts of publishers to adapt
their papers to every variety of taste and
every grade of sentiment, affording, one
might think, ample opportunity to read
ers to suit themselves perfectly; yet there
is still, perhaps, as much grumbllng about
newspapers as there ever was.
We suppose it does not often occur to
the grumblers that possibly they them
selves may be at fault-may be unreason-
able, may expect impossibilities, may be
out of humor, or may be stupid or unap-
preciative 1t may never occur to them
that the men who toll night and day to
furnish them with the latest news, the
greatest variety of information and enter
tainment, are mortal, and sometimes get
tired and sleepy themselves and need
and deserve, too, some consideration and
even sympathy from those for whom
they increasingly work. Fault-fnding
readers seem to forget that newspaper
cannot be made for general circulation
and yet in everything exactly suit any
one person.
A thoroughly good, enterprising news
paper is really like well spread dinner
table; it contains variety as well as quan-
tity, something for every taste, and
enough of each kind to satisfy any rea-
sonable appetite. Just so it is with every
we'll edited paper. No one is expected
to read everything in the paper, or to
one is expected to find enough that is
good, and useful, and agreeable, in the
ample columns spread out before them to
be full equivalent for what the paper
cost, and if they happen to find on the
carte an article that offends their taste,
or is in opposition to their views, they
have just to let that alone and leave it for
another whom it will just suit, and for
whose taste it was gotten up. A. D.. j.

having too many OF his own household

Mr. Robin has had charge OF the of
lice here over TOUR years, and during that
time has made most excellent officer.
He has had four assistants, three Of whom
were his children, and one a brother, all
Cl them thoroughly efficient, and eX-
tremely accommodating. During these
four years your correspondent has never
heard a word, except the highest praise,
as to the efficiency OF the service rem
dered or as to Mr.. Robin having the
members OF his own family as his assist
ants in the conduct of the office.
Mr.. Robin is a Republican OF course,
but he Is not a politician He Is Il
thorough gentleman, and q good citizen,
highly respected by everybody.
We do not believe there is a man, wo-
man or child i'll the city OF Rocky Mount
who would not sin a petition
who would not sign a petition for Mr..
Robin to hold the office, with cten
more young Robin in the Official nest
Rocky Mount has not been blessed with
the best of postmasters for the past TWEEN

ried experiences in this matter, and now,
that we have all that could be desired
in one, except as to politics, the peo-
