HERMAN SWAIN RETIRES:
BUILDS HOME AT WANCHESE

Brigantine, N. Local firemen
and policemen recently held a
farewell party at the firehouse
for Capt. Herman Swain retiring
with the change of shifts after
30 years on the Brigantine fire
department.
Swain was born in Elizabeth
City, spent much of his early life
at Wanchese and came to Brigan-
tine when he was II, in 1924. He
served as a surfman for two years
at the Brigantine Coast Guard sta
ton. While waiting for the first
fire truck to arrive in Bigantine,
he worked for the Golf Course
Development Co.
The captain went to work as a
fireman Aug. 10, 1926, when the
fire company was housed at 9Th
st. No. and Brigantine Ave. He
went into service as mate of a
104-foot crash boat, and served as
mate, later master, for four years
in the Mediterranean.
Swain returned to the fire house
after his discharge in 1916, and
was appointed captain in 1866. His
son, Gary, is also a fireman in
Brigantine.
Swain intends to divide his time
between his home here and a
new home he is building in Wan
cheese. He was presented with an
electric drill set by the men of
the two departments as parting
gift.
He is a member of Kline Nc
Anney Post, American Legion, the
Brigantine Republican Club and
the Brigantine Yacht Club.
Last week Captain Swain joined
the Fort Raleigh Post No. &c,
American Legion at its Ladies
Night dinner at the Wanchese
school. He is brother of Mrs.
Major Daniels, and Mrs. Swain is
the former Mary Tillett, daughter
of Mrs. Arlettie Tillett, all of
Wanchese.

81 have been thinking a lot
about this Christmas spirit lately
and l don't see anything wrong
about 1t. We hear lot of COM
plant about Hebrew merchants
having commercialized the birth
day of Christ, but after all, any
enterprising merchant takes full
advantage of all market prospects.
Everybody else is grasping for
what they can get too; just about
anyone you see likes to get some
thing for nothing, and they'll do
anything to get an extra dollar
out of the taxpayers. Just look at
the unmarried women nowadays
that take pride in having a new
baby every year to get still an
other $50 monthly bonus from the
welfare.
$50 there ought to be one time
in the year when there's some
giving and not all taking. / don't
have any complaint about all this
splurge at Christmas. 1t helps
business, makes jobs, and encour-
ages the merchant to carry on in
the dull season when he'd other
wise be discouraged and down in
the mouth.
"Used to be l took the good
along with the bad; A man who
has been fishing most of his life
has to learn to take the long, lean
spells along with the good times.
Hard times are no respectors of
seasons, and like as not we'd find
ourselves broke at Christmas, the
time of the year when we thought
we should have a little something
to throw away.
snow Mr.. Editor, I've learned
to take it on the chin, and it
didn't worry me if / didn't get any
Christmas presents when times
were tight. would tell the chill
dren how it was and maybe next
year there'd be more. But my old
woman would never have it that
way. She'd save a little something
all through the year; she'd do
without things herself, just so she
could remember all the family, all
her relatives and all the neighbors
with a little something at Christ
mas time.
snow this, l now see is a great
thing. 1t brought so much happi-
ness. The little ones never lost
faith in Santa Claus; the neigh
bors were heartened and made
happier by her courage and gen
erosity, and you can bet they'll
always remember her.
christmas giving is great
thing and we should never give
it up. Sometimes fellow gets a
shirt that won't fit; or the wrong
kind of tobacco, but just look at
the spirit that goes into Christmas
giving: that's what counts. If we
stopped to count the cost of
Christmas, there wouldn't be any
gifts. Just about everybody would
figure they couldn't afford it. But
like charity, one must not count
the cost; one must not hold his
own prosperity against the des-
perate need of another.
"Mr. Editor, there is another
thing l have been thinking about.
You know like lot Of others, l
got treated dirty by this tax bust
ness the county tried to put over
this year, that l, like some of my
neighbors said, it would be late
day before l again paid any taxes
to give bunch of reckless men
