very high wind, which was alarming,
but no one reaped how serious it was
to b*. It darkened rapidly and then
a noise indescribable—a roar. For
about Ave minutes it rained every

trees, household articles, etc. Quiet
ness and then frantic people crying
and laughing. The Heins pickle fac

in which two were killed were leveled
and eighty blocks of houses just a
mass of scranmbled wreckage. It was

New Ruling Made
For Choral Contest
Prof. D. W. Arnold, chairman of
choral contest E, has decided to allow
the teacher who trains the singing
contestants in his or her school to
sing with his or her class at the
county commencement. It is confi
dently thought that this ruling will
make the contests more attractive
and give a certain confidence to each
respective class competing.
Teachers of the schools will take
notice of this ruling and know that
they have thQ-privilege of allowing
the teacher who trains to appear with
her elass on AprilJ26th.
Any further information may be ob
tained from Professor Arnold.

Educational Necessity
For Play Grounds
School playgrounds, educational lead
ers realize, are as essential as school
buildings. "We talk no more inj
terms of square feel per child, but in j
j acres per school," states Dr. James L\
j Rogers, director, Community llecrea-1
| tion Training School, Playground, and |
Recreation Association of America, in j
j School Life, a publicaiion of the In- 1
I terior Department, iiureau of Educa- j
I lion.
Joliet, 111 , u town of 60,000, has
I one school with zo acres, and the oth
ers overage more than 6 acres each.
Elyria, Ohio, with 26,000 people, has
bought an athletic field of 18 acres
for its high school. Tacoma, San
Diego, Peoria, and many others have
great stadiums. In Gary, Ind., every
school has a playground a block square
a gymnasium, and an audi orium.
These mean clearer brains, more ac
tive bodies, and muke for belter study
and recitations. On playgrounds and
athleiic fields are learned some of the
greatest lessons of life. For this rea
son, Doctor liogers urges, schools
should maintain their physical educa
tion for 12 months rather than for y.
New Method of
Curing Tobacco
| Mr. Hyman Warren, of Koberson
ville, is advertising in this issue of
j the Enterprise something that will be
of unusual the tobacco
growers of our county/^
A heating apparatus that is run
by kerosene to heat tobacco bams,
known as the Torrid Tobacco Stove,
is the thing that lets its owner
"sleep while otheTs work." This will
sound good to tobacco growers, for
one of the most disagreeable features
of tobacco raising is watching the
bam both night and day.
This stove can be regulated and
then left alone until a change of tem
perature is desired. The tank is out
side Jlhe barn, thereby all danger of
fire j|s eliminated.
Fcfr a good close-built barn about
j.60 gallons of fuel is required to make
one cure. The average quantity will
be between 60 and 70 gallons.
Mr. Warren is demonstrating this
machine at his home 8 miles west of
Robersonville every Saturday from
8 o'clock until 4.
He has fine recommendations from
farmers throughout Nash, Edgecombe,
Pitt, and Lenoir Counties, who have
used the machines for two year*.

five things our tounty most needs
to send in papers, of'them
have been very g«od.TTie high
school children in the lower end
of the county have been interest
ed and sent in some very fine
papers for school children.
The judges, however, without
any knowledge of the writers,
gave first prise to Article No. 1,
which was written by Mr. Joel
Gibson, and second to paper No.
5, published March 6. but as this
article was not signed nor the
writer's identity known, we had
to get them to select a third
best paper, so as to follow the
rules first given. N. P. Kober
son's article appealed to them,
more on account of the emphasis
he laid on the subject of raising
our foodstuffs at home.
Mr. Gibson's paper was the first
one published and was rich in
good, plain, every day common
sense, and it was very fair and
unbiased in any sense.
To Mr. Gibson we are aeading
a 12.50 gold piece and a 2-years'
paid-up subscript ion to the Enter

sending a paid-up (sbacriptien

FORMER RESIDENT
KILLED IN WRECK
Henderson Cooper Killed When Autos
Collide on Highway Near Scot
land Neck Saturday .Night
(Scotland Neck Commonwealth)
Saturday night, about B\o'clock, as
Landis Howard, accompanied by Hen
derson Cooper as passenger) sitting on
the front seat with him, were coming
toward Scotland Neck, their car was
struck by one driven by Louis Finch,
Mr. Cooper being thrown violently
from the car, receiving injuries from
which he died about two hours later.
Recording to Mr. Howard's. own
story he had stopped a short distance
this side of the creek bridge to give
attention to his car and had started
again toward town, still in low gear,
when he saw a car coming down the
road at a furitfUs speed, wobbling back
and forth across ths road. In his
own words, "1 said to Mr. Cooper,
'We are going to be hit by that car,
and 1 drew aside almost into the ditch,
and the next thing 1 knew was when
I came to and saw- Mr. Cooper ljing
I along the side of the road in the ditch,
mortally wounded." Mr. Cooper died j
| about two hours later.
According to those who at tl»e
scene immediately af er the wreck
Finch left immediately without at
tempting to give uid to those whom
he had struck, and was found by offi
cers two hours later in bed.
According to Chief Lawrence, I>
uty Sheriff Henry Gray, v and others
there was unmistakable evidence of
whisky in the car driven by Finch.
"" , 'jiwrence stating that'he could'
mat tfjlc" out wf tho floor !
!• inch was arraigned *isuiiu»,,
ing before Justice of the Peace A. C
Liverman and placed under a SIOO
bond for his further appearance. Mr
Howard was nt called as witness at
the trial.
Mr. Cooper was about 65 years old
and lived near Jamesville until about
15 years ago when he moved to Scot
land Neck, where he has since lived.
Jamesville The Centre
College of Kasketball
I Jamesville, March 24.—Amid the
singing of the spring birds ami the
whoops of the plowhoys, the rustling
of the wind in the half-barren trees,
marks the most brilliant sunset of
a season ever witnessed by the citi
zens and hoskethull folks of Martin
County. Never has a school in the
history of this, or, in fact, of any
county in eastern North Carolina,
JH**llLgucli u .wunderfui. record in has-'
ketball as t|ie Jamesville High School.!
Jamesville won from every school in
this county before the holidays, but!
the officials-of the Martin OoAty
Athletic Association came buck at us,,
and made us play every high school of!
any note over again. This sightly \
weakened the spirit of the Jamesville
boys, but when our coach, Mr. Hubble,
gave them a lecture about "staying in I
there and fighting; them," the boys I
came back with the same pep, deter
mined to win every name. They said,
"We owe it to our school first, tlien I
io our parents, pd Ijist but not least
to' our coach.
The boys ended the season with Uf>
games won, not losing any. The sea
son's score was as follows: James
ville, 700 points, its opponents, 1152
(Jaylord was high score man of the
season, shooting three times more |
than our opponents combined. Next
was James Urown, shooting 1 1-3
times as many points as our oppon
ents. This is a wonderful record, one
to be proud of by any team. We are
very proud of the cup that is to be
awarded us.
Jame.sville stands first in all ath
letics that it' has taken part in this
and last year.
Mr. Hubble developed a basketball
team that was always full of pep.
Much praise is due to Mr. Hubble,
who not only taught the boys to play
the game, but to play it fair, and not
only to win but to accept defeat.

That it wil Ibe enjoyable is putting
