The Fayetteville Observer had
- reputation for real news" The
Rev. G. F. Smith, pastor of Hay
Street Methodist Church, was
reading an account of a death to
his daughter, age five. She asked
if the deceased went to heaven,
and the father replied he didn't
know. She then said: please
ask the Observer, papa. 1t
knows where everybody goes"
Other papers were respected for
boosting their communities, and
boasted of it themselves. For in
stance, the Washington Gazette
said:
THE Gazette is a rooster brave,
Who tackles every churlish
knave
Or anyone else beneath the sun
Who tries to run down Wash-
ington.
The Gazette for old Beaufort
stands
And for all the people that till
= her lands,
And for all enterprises meath
the sun
That builds up grand old Wash
ington,"
The Murphy Bulletin said al
most the same thing in another
manner:
There are some people in this
town and county who at every OPP
portunity and in every conceive
able way throw cold water on
every new enterprise and indus
try. This talk would be ruinous
to our town and county were it
not for the fact that the good
God has placed them here for a
purpose, we know not what; and
we wait with great degree of
curiosity the final working of this
problem. They are warts on the
face of nature. white elephants
on the hands Of up-to-date enter
prising citizens, and we would
gladly print their obituaries in
this issue"
AS their predecessors in the
profession, most of today's edi-
tors look upon their papers as did
the publishers in the first issue
of the Moravian Falls Fool Killer:
well, dear sinner friends, this
is the Fool Killer.
How does it set on your stom-
ach?
This paper wears no bell,
muzzle, collar or halter. I am
the fellow who works the pump
handle of this pungent periodical
of thrilling thought. | print only
what write; | write only what
I think; and I think what | dog
gone please.
II own this entire establish
ment, and Rockefeller isn't rich
enough to buy one share Of it.
IF you are fool, you had bet
ter not subscribe to the Fool Kill
Ter. If you are wise, you will.
And so, that settles it."
Proof enough? Newspapering
in North Carolina is a heritage.

Ever since was a youngster
I've heard and have taken for
granted that the Presidency of
the United States is the most ex-
acting, enervating. debilita,ing,
excrueiatingly lonely job in all
the world.
II is part OF The lore which has
gone along with this great job,
and, and for one had rarely
thought ef the Presidency without
Immediately associating with it
all manner OF trials, tribulationS
and back-breaking toll, all the
while being corroborated in my
conception OF the situation by read
ing any number of political
cofimnists who said the job was
simply becoming too much for any
one man to bear up under.
But then / got TO thinking.
True, during my memory, Wood
row Wilson, Warren Harding, and
Franklin Roosevelt had all died
in Office, with Wilson being 68,
Harding So, and Roosevelt 63 at
the end. And Calvin Coolidge,
who refused to run for a second
term, died at the age of 81, only
five years after leaving the White
House. :.-.-.@.~r
But in spite of their compara-
lively early deaths, not even, the
kindest historians will likely
associate the untimely demiSes of
Mr., Harding and Mr.. Coolidge
with any undue stress or strains
suffered by either gentleman
while occupying the White House.
While it is quite likely that
both Woodrow Wilson and Frank
lin Roosevelt were hastened to
their deaths Ivy the great ankle
ties of their teureS of office, it
should be RENE. nbered in this
connection that Mr. Roosevelt
was paralyzed from the waist
down and nearly died from polio
when ne was 80 years old; and
that Mr.. Wilson, a sensitive and
delicate man, suffered stroke
in September of 1919, when he
was SO.
But what about former Presi-
dents Herbert Hoover, Harry Tru-
man and Dwight Eisenhower, who
are all around and doing well at
88, 70 and Y years of age re-
spectively?
Is it probable, if the Presiden-
cy is as eXacting as it is general
ly thought to be, that these three
gentlemen would have survived
TO such a active and productive
old age?
And don't forget that Mr.. Eisen-
however, who became the oldest
man ever elected President. had
also gone through a rugged war.
Mr.. Eisenhower had the Burn
ing Tree golf course to keep him
-- warm and circulating-a happen
stance which was to make Mr..
Truman do a slow burn on a num-
ber of occasions. Mr.. EisenhOw-
er not only survived Mr.. Tru-
mans verbal blasts but also a
coronary thrombosis, an inteSti-
nal operation and a mild stroke
as well while in Office-troubles
that would have forced most men
to give up just about any other
job you can mention.
Mr.. Truman, who had many
big end-of-t -the-war decisions to
make, as well as the atomic bomb
responsibilities, and assassination
The Chapel Hill weekly., 1963-01-16

attemplS seems Just as friSky TO-
day as-Ae ever was, and lust
as iraScible, Mr.. Eisenhower had
his golf and golt trips and farm
Tor change OF pace, While Mr..
Truman had his cronies and an
occasional poker game aboard
the good ship Mayflower. ON which
1t was rumored there was Suifl-
cient bourbon and branch water
to ease many inherent worries
and irrhalionS pertaining to the
office OF the Presidency.
AS for Mr. Hoover, whose four
years in The White, House. must
have been as narrowing as any
could be during peacetime, ii was
work. work, work for him then
and ever since. If his tenure in
the While House slowed him down
any, his work under Truman and
Eisenhower on the European Food
Program, on the Board of the
World Bank, and his monumental
work otl I'll TIE reorganization of Of
the Executive Branch have failed
to show it.
And now, what about the pres
ent Administration? Let's have a
listen: 1t was last Sunday at
dock at Palm Beach, Florida,
where a group of curious folks
were waiting TO see the President
and his party take off for a sail
in the Honey Fitz, the PreSiden-
tial yacht.
Finally the party whipped up
thirty minutes late in a white
convertible the President was
driving. The party disgorsed from
the packed auto. As Mr.. Ken
nedy's Welsh terrier, Charlie,
held up the bOarding~party by
lrisking with -a~p0och belonging
to one OF the curious, it was not
ed that the President wore a
dark blue shirt, pink SlackS, black
loaferS and no socks.
Mrs. Ken ledy, al times the
worlds best. dressed woman. wore
white slacks, a short-sleeved
black sweater and was barefoot

ed shirt. Others in the party in
Guided Caroline, Mrs kennedy's
sister, Mrs Lee RadziWill, and
her Anthony, 4.
A few hundred miles north Of,
the gay party, which was the
elimination of a three-week va
cation in Palm Beach for The
President and his encourage, a
Congress hostile to Mr.. Kennedy'S
domestic policies was converging
on Washington =. for its 8&h ses-
sion. while only a hundred miles
to the southeast lay a smolder-
ing Red Cuba, crawling with Rus
sian troops and professional sabo-
teurs, looking for tne next weak
spot to pounce upon among the
American nations. And all over
the world the struggle of man
for his own freedom was going on
mabated
All of which proves nothing
perhaps except that either this
bit about the Presidency being the
most eXacting and enervating job
in the world is little 0verdrawn,
or that We are electing the rug
gedeSt men available for the job.
AT the rate the present Admimstra-
ton is travelling. Mr.. Kennedy
should be around for a long, long
time.
