Deer
Holmes
By Chester Marshall

Several have asked us recently
why we don't carry the names
of candidates seeking state Of
fees in our political column each
week. Here's the reason why:
Most Of the state candidates go
along With the policy which the
Mississippi Press Association got
most of the newspapers in the
state to agree to several years
ago to let these candidates pay a
blanket fee to the Association for
the purpose of getting their names
placed in the political columns of
the papers belonging to the Press
Association. The idea was to not
only help the Association out fl
nancially, but it would help the
candidate get his name in more
papers at far less cost.
Under a Mississippi Press AS
ISOLATION bylaw, a newspaper has
to be published at least a year
before it can be eligible for mem
bership in the Association. Since
we are only II weeks old, we are
not, as yet, a member of that fine
organization, and so we have
not received any state candidates
who have announced their candi-
dacy under the blanket deal,
through the Mississippi Press As
sociation.
Come January, 1860, the Herald
win be eligible to join the Asso-
citation as well as publish legal
advertising.
And times marches on - this
week, as we pass our fourth month
of publication, we are proud to
announce that we have reached
another milestone or two on the
road to success. The Post Office
Department in Washington this
week granted a second class mail
ing permit to the Herald, giving
us the privilege of mailing our
papers at the low postage rate
other newspapers enjoy. And even
more important is the fact that
this week we received new adj
vertising contracts from four (4)
National Advertising Agencies with
clients in Holmes countys You will
note on the front page of the sec
ond section Of this issue the Ply
mouth ad for Henson Motor Co.
of Pickens. This is n of our
new advertisements coming from
national agencies. The others will
be along soon, and even more
have indicated they are planning
an advertising program with the
Herald. We welcome these new
accounts with warm sincerity.
AS a reader of the Herald, we
urge you to look over the ads
each week, patronize u adver-
Users, and when you do, tel
them you saw their ad in our pa.
per. They will appreciate it anc
so will we. BY SO doing you viii
encourage the merchant to adver
tise his products more, and the
Herald, which is truly dedicated
to the peace, prosperity and good
will of every person in Holmes
county, both white and colored
will continue to grow.

THE OUTLOOK
BY Pastor Stephens
AWAk

THE time in which We are
\ crucial. Every serious think
ing person should realize this.
The day Of judgment is here.
Unaware of what is to befall
us, too many are asleep to the
signs of the time. There is a
tremendous amount of doubt
and fear, illustration and con-
fusion, hate and lust, passion
and pride, and tension and ig-
norance mounting in this So
called enlightened world.
We are no longer at the cross
roads of life, wondering which
way to go, but we have made
choice as n ton to worship
the god of materialism, tech

We are far down this road. 1t

rather than the former being
nearer our conception OF the
truth.
From the minds of our great
leaders in religion, science, and
even politics, are concerned
about being able to survive in
the event of a third world war.
While the average member OF
this society has not even so
much as become aware of the
weapons at the disposal of man
and their potentiality for de-
struction. You who are now
reading this column, awake to
the seriousness of the occasion
