Dora" her pet name for her physi-
clan husband, DR.. Burnett. It was
as If there had been family inter-
ruptions and she wished to refresh
her memory.
Mrs. Burnett" Mr.. Rick tells
you, was one of the first persons
IN either England or the United
States actively to sponsor a boys
club" The one she endowed in
london, just behind the Drury Lane
Theater, Is still in existence, her
gilt having been inspired by the
loss Of her son, Lionel. In Mr..
Kicks possession is one of the
three original copies of the pros
pectus of the "Drury Lane Boys
Club" as outlined by Mrs. Burnett
and set up and published by her son
Vivian. Another is in the British
Museum, and the third in the rare
book collection of the Library OF
Congress.
Dates to His Childhood.
Mr.. Rick's interest in the author
of Little Lord Fauntleroy" and
Sara Crewe" dates back to his
mothers intimacy with Mrs. Julia
Schayer, close friend of the celeb
rity in her heyday. With Mrs
Schayer she made several visits
to the Burnett home, bringing back
to her children many intimate
touches concerning the sprightly
author and her family.
1t is also Mr.. Rick's boast that
he was once marched to Sleep
by John Philip Sousa, the famous
march king, whose home in South
east Washington adjoined the Rick
household. This came about through
the great band leaders query as to
why young Ernest was constituting
himself an orchestra in his own
right and his mothers intimation
that certain "unholy hours of prac-
tising' upon the distinguished
Sousa's part might be accountable
for it. Whereupon the great Susa
promptly came next door and in
quick marching time promptly put to
sleep the infant he had previously
wakened.
Mr.. Rick is a graduate of the
Mckinley High School and has
taken special courses at George
Washington University. the Uni
versity Of Chicago and at Oxford,
England.
During his eight years at Eastern
High School previous to his present
assignment at Stuart, he inaug-
urated one of the first high school
courses In aeronautical science and
ground flying in the United States.
In their summer vacations Mr.
Rick and wife, who is also a high
school teacher here, have gone far
afleld in their travels, always in
fluenced by Mr.. Rick's interest in
Burnett memorabilia.

BY TOM AND HARLE DAMMANN

COLOGNE.-We are completely
baff1ed by the personalities of our
young German Misunderstanding
the extreme anti-Nazis whom we
met. With traits of individualism,
which we all have. they are domin-
ated by the pressure of a political
theology. But the individualism
dies hard, thus producing a bewil-
dering Jekyll-Hyde conflict.
Our friend Hermann Wiedemann
is typical. Only l8, he already has
done so we'll along the routine lines
that the authorities have urged
him to make career as a leader
III one of the state organizations.
Loyal Nazi that he is and has been
since he was II years old. he never
theless refuses these offers because
he is an artist.
We met him first through some
pictures shown us by his mother,
which he had drawn with charcoal.
They astonished us not only by
their technical perfection but their
great depth of feeling. There was
one in particular Hermann called
it War 1t was the drawing of a
face, beautiful in strength but with
every line and shadow crying out
in despair and pain.
COmpOses and Writes, Too.
HERMANN talent is not confined
to drawing: he composes music and
has written novel concerning a
young artist whose story asserts
that artists must be given freedom
of expression.
We could barely believe that the
boy who drew these pictures and
wrote this book also strutted in his
uniform with the most ardent Nazis.
But Hermann keeps his art to him.
self and marches in public.
If I were to let my pictures and
novels come before the public
would be ruined" he confided to us.
"They would boycott me and I
should starve to death because my
work is not in accordance with the
rules"
How can you put up with such
a system?" We cried. do you mean
that you, an artist, are so afraid
that you permit Hitler, house
painter and a politician, to tell you
what art is?"
The State Comes First.
"Our leader is a German and I
am a German. He is doing what
is best for Germany and as a Ger
man it is my duty to obey. He says
that now We must all work to build
up our country, and that means that
artists must work, too."
you can't be happy that way?'
mo, maybe not, but it is best for
Germany. Art. like everything else,
is now a servant of the state. When
our leader has made Germany great
again surely then we can have free
artistic expression. But we cannot
be great unless we have order and
obedience within our state. 1 must
try to obey"
We spent many hours talking with
this young fellow in a small cafe
in his native Rhineland town of
Bonn, not far from Cologne. Al

Judge Parker
In Greeting
To Dispatch

Judge r. Hunt Parker, of Roa-
noke Rapids, resident superior court
judge of the third district, and a
former citizen Of Henderson, has
written the Daily Dispatch a very
cordial greeting of the occasion of
the silver anniversary of the paper.
He has always been good friend
of this paper, and his sincerity is
reciprocated by the entire Dis
patch organization, who hold him
in the highest esteem. He writes
as follows:
I send my sincerest congratula-
tions upon your tWenty-fifth birth
day Born amid all the danger Of
a world in arms, you have told
the story of the World War, the af-
termath of the peace, the reSurgence
into militarism of central Europe,
the economic revolution in all the
nations that has changed the lives
of every man and woman alive.
You have described the marvel Of
the radio and of television, the
wonderful triumphS of science and
the almost incredible progress OF
preventive medicine. Within your
life you have recorded changes more
profound than have occurred within
any previous five hundred years
of recorded history.
For one quarter of a century you

Late Thad Manning Was
Among First Publishers

Mr.. Manning was well known
throughout the State in the news
paper profession, and served a year
as president of the North Carolina
Press Association. He was almost
always present at the annual con-
ventions of the association, and to-
day, where these gatherings are
held, if any of the old-timers are
on hand, they almost invariably
make reference to Mr.. Manning and
the high toned gentleman and citi-
zen that he was.
In the later years of the first de-
cade of the present century, Mr..
Manning's health began to fail, and
in 1911 he sold the Gold Leaf to
local corporation, and was succeeded
as editor and manager by the late
P. T. Way, who died in 1919. He died
in the summer of 1915 after being an
invalid for some time, but the older
citizens here remember him affec-
tionately and revere his memory for
the service he gave to the COM
munity and the upright life he lived.
Henderson daily dispatch., 1939-08-31

In any reckoning Of newspaper
history in Henderson, full credit
should properly be given to the late
Thad R. Manning 1t was he who
pioneered in the work half CEN
tury ago, and who, so far as in
formation Immediately at hand in
dicates, was the founder of the
Henderson Gold Leaf in 1881, or
So years ago.
Mr.. Manning labored long and
faithfully to give the small town
a good newspaper, and, although it
was published only once a week,
was decided credit to the COM
munity and rendered outstanding
service. In his day, few newspaper
shops had the modern machinery
and equipment that makes possible
the fast issuance of editions each

ing citizen OF Henderson and Vance
