Congratulation Editor Entkkpkisk, Wiu.iamston, N. C. Dear Sir; I wish to congratulate Hie lui terprise upon its eight years career which closed with the last issue. I now havfe the first x>py that ever went through the press, when it was started by Mr. Dail, and have watched its career with much interest. Tho it bas had some ups and downs, vet it is and has been a great factor for good in the com munity. It has always stood foi and boldly advocated the things that were best for the community ami has served as a great educator for our people. The county newspaper generally does not receive tlie proper support from the people that it deserves. worth is unestiniated and the public expect the lienefit of Its good in fluence without Jending either then moral or fiancial support,. Your success has been such, however, that 1 would infer that you have strong backing from your county men, you should have, out ot the four thousand families in the county, not less than -?ooo, paid up suliscribers-, v to say nothing aliout the cotnpliineutaiies I-confidentially believe that witli the steady growth of , ' ,L ' l )U l H '' that you will ere long have to in crease its size to eight pagt paper. 1 hope that the paper will louj: continue its good work for tin moral and material good of oui people.

There is ever a fascination in taking mental notes of the industrial progress in the places visited. Coining into your town after an absence of five . vears, 1 found much to interest one. Being especially fond cf the pro ducts of mechanical labor. 1 spent a part of one day in the factory of the Martin County Buggy Com pany. I found as complete a shop as is generally seen in the large raanufactoring towns. Skilled workman were in charge of every department, aud the manager, Mr. V J. Z. Gardner, is well known as a man of wide experience in the building of high grade vehicles. I learned the names of the stockhold ers, and they are among the sound est business men of the town, they have confidence and money in the enterprise, aud will push tt to success. The display of vehicles is an attractive one, and the out ir.'K* .■ put is large, consi Bering the fact that the factory has existed onlv a few mouths. They combine dura bility with beautv of finish and , design. Each job turned out is guaranteed to be of the best mater ial and workmanship. The factory is a valuable addition to the indus- 1 trial progress of the County, and there should be no need for foreign vehicles. I found that purchases , could be made on easy term-!, and that prices Were Jow considering the quality. It is with pleasure aud satisfaction that I commend the work to lovers of an attractive and up to-da'.e vehicle. "SojOt'KNF.K" Sick Headache This disease is caused by a de rangement of ihe stomach.
