Addrett all communication! to The Enterprise and not to the individual membert of the hrm Tuesday, July 25, 1933 Sunday Baseball We are sorry that Williamston and Windsor have to play baseball on Sunday. We do not condemn; we only deeply and sincerely regret that Sunday has to be turned from a day of rest, meditation, and worship, into a day of money making, and things that draw the minds of people from the things divine. If such things continue, we will not have a moment to worship God, nor will we have a second to think of the Creator and Preserver of our beings. Our program of worldly things has already ab sorbed nearly all of our time and before the coming of another generation who will there be to hold up the principles of the church of Jesus Christ and how are our children to know about the C reator in the days of their youth if their time is all taken up by questionable institutions set up and permitted by their fathers? The church and Jesus Himself may well say to the surging, thoughtless mass of humanity, "Why hast thou forsaken us"? Learn To Walk First We have tried to point out the danger of trying to travel too fast. Since we were put on our feet by the recovery program, which began in March, we need to remember that we can not run too fast when we first begin to walk. We must recognize that we have been crawling for a long time, and we need not ex pect to go very fast for several years. But our en thusiastic glee has caused us to start rushing again— rushing blindly. We seem to think we have an opportunity to get rich overnight and so we plunge. Last week's market storm swept away the saving of quite a number of people. If the gamblers themselves were the only folks to get hurt, we would say keep on gambling, but they are not- the honest workers have to do the suffering. Tii the case of most broken banks, the underlying cause was pure and simple stock and crop gambling, and it ranged from the highest to the lowest banks. We have a fine opportunity to recover. The Gov ernment is holding the lions off the lambs, yet if the lambs have no better sense than to run and poke their heads into the lion's mouth, they will certainly get bit. There is not a reason in the world to guess that prices will go to a very high level and st,ay there. What we need to do is to push things along gradually and we will soon be able to run safely and cope with our debts and travel in the safe road to prosperity. Don't gamble. Keep Away From Wall Street Will Rogers, in a recent article, intimated that the same Wall Street that got us in our last trouble, is going to get us in our next if we don't watch out. Will is right. We are all living on enthusiasm, which will prove all right if we keep away from Wall Street. Wall Street wants us to go an a rampage of spend ing all we have and gambling for more, which will sink us below any level we have ever been. Wall Street wants us to spend more and go deeper in debt, the two morst things we can do, if we want to recover from our financial crash. The Roosevelts Get a Divorce It took President Roosevelt's son just 8 minutes to get a divorce. If we have another legislature like the last one, it will probably not take more than 7 min utes in this State. It seems that young Mr. Roosevelt already had his eye oo a Texas woman before he turned his wife loose. Nobody has said whose fault it was that both the young Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt wanted a divorce; yet it is quite likdy that Mrs. Roosevelt saw a man who appealed to her more than a president's son, and bkely his affections had been transferred from his own wife to another woman. The charge that each made against the other was "extreme cruelty." If these charges are true, after a wUock of on)y a year and a half, with a baby in the family, then cruelty nay extend on to new hus bands and wives, . — — Light and Indifferent Votes The Alabama, Arkansas, and Tennessee votes for tepeaJ show very light and indifferent votet on both sides and shows that the liquor folks backed by that meddlesome Postmaster General have failed to stir up much interest. The total vote in Alabama was only 62 per cent as large as the 1928 Presidential vote, when 248,000 bal lots were cast. In the recent election only 93,679 voted for repeal, and 92,903 people did not vote at all who voted in 1928. In Arkansas, the vote for repeal was 62,176, against 41,282, totalling 103,458 only 56 per cent as large as the presidential vote of 1920 13 years ago, and only 47 per cent as large as the 1932 Presidential vote, which was 219,338. So 28 per cept of the Ar kansas voters were sufficient to carry the State for repeal. In Tennessee, it seems the vote was about 61 per cent as large as the Roosevelt-Hoover vote, and only about 30 per cent as many votes were cast for repeal as were cast in the 1932 election. The repeal vote was less than half the Roosevelt vote in 1932, showing that Tennessee Democrats are not taking orders from Farley. It would be interesting, of course, to know just what class of people voted for repeal, what class voted against it, and what class remained at home. Of course, it is impossible to look into the Book of Life and see what the eternal records show and see how these voters are classified there. It is the duty of every good man and every good woman and every intelligent child who will have to march in the pathway their fathers have hewn out to think, think deeply, truthfully, and honestly on this question. Speaking of Divorces — Now comes the news, through all the papers that Mrs. Aimee Semple McPherson Hutton is soon to be grass-widowed again. Mr. Hutton, the third husband, says he just can't stand to be called "Mr. Aimee," and to be poodle-dogged around home by the servants and abroad by everybody. Of course, no man blames him for wanting to be boss around home. However, some say his main grievance is that Aimee makes more money than he does, and she is playing the game of "keeps," which aggravates the little end of the household, and he is just bucking and kicking about it! We have never been so strong for Mrs. Aimee, and if she takes on many more husbands, she will likely lose her usefulness as a preacher. And, speaking of divorces, we see that Jack Demp sey, the one-time heavyweight champion prizefighter, and Hannah Williams, some other kind of big star, are now married, he a third class husband, she a third class wife. They a# acting rather sensibly about it, however, since they are going to make their home in Reno, so they can get a divorce the minutes he happens to take on too much "dram," or she burns the biscuits* Of course, they are expected to want to change part ners just as soon as the paint wears off a little, and just think how quick and how cheap the next divorce will then they will soon both be fourth-class husband and wife. The Riders Uoidsboro Transcript and Messenger. "Daddy, where were you when the government plan went into effect to raise the price of cotton by plowing under a part of the acreage?" "Sonny Boy, I wa.s riding on the backs of my neigh bors who went in on the plan, while I kept all my cotton growing." "Daddy, did you make a good crop that year?" The answer to Sonny Bdy's second question will be seen this fall, as will be seen whether that man profit ed most who took part in the plan with full cash pay ment to him, or the one who took part cash and an option, or the one who allowed others to put the plan over without himself raising a hand to help. All three of them, though, as well as the whole pop ulation of the cotton growing areas of the South, will profit by the government's act. A New Leader News and Observer The election of J. Roy Parker, of Ahoskie, as pres ident of the North Carolina Press Association gives that organisation young and vigorous leadership at a time when the press looks forward to altering cir cumstances in a changing nation. For three years and more the newspapers of North Carolina have shared the difficulties of their neigh bors in all lines of business. Newspapers, like others, have sought to save themselves in times of financial stringency by a policy of retrogression. Mr. Parker comes to the leadership of the press at a time when the newspapers are joining their neighbors in a bold and determined about face. The years of stagnation are coming to an end. Within the next few months the press should show its leadership by moving vig orously forward again. The State press association has wisely chosen its leader for that advance. Who Will Feel It? News and Observer In an interview in Dertoit on Saturday on the na tional recovery campaign, Henry Ford gave his en dorsement to General Hugh S. John sin the man ner in which he is conducting the campaign." In the course of the interview he undertook to define the men who are most likely "to feel the sting of the act." They will be, he said, "those who take their profits out of the workers' pay envelopes instead of earning them by their own brain*." Few tears will be shed for them. THE ENTERPRISE ' Doubtful if Club Boys and Girls To Meet This Year ■ - ♦ It is very doubtful if the 4-H short course'for club boys and girls will be held at State College this year, ac-j cording to information received re cently. The emergency cotton and I wheat campaigns in which moat of the farm agents are engaged and the I emergency canning campaign in I which the home agents are engaged I will prevent them from attending or! j preparing for the short course, it was ; pointed out. If it is held, the date will probably be the first week in September. PUBLIC LAND SALE | Under and by virtue of power of ! sale contained in that certain deed of i trust executed on April Bth, 1920, by I L. J. Manning and wife, Ina Manning, and Caroline Nelson, to the Chicka mauga Trust Co., for the benefit of the Prudential Insurance Company of America, said deed of trust being re corded in book P-l, at page 11, of Martin County registry, default hav ing been made in the payment of the interest and annual principal install ments as therein provided and the en tire indebtedness having been declared due by the owner of same as provide! in said trust conveyance, and the un dersigned having been appointed sub stitute trustee in said conveyance in place of the Chickamauga Trust Co., bankrupt, with said appointment being duly registered in Martin County reg istry, and "having been requested to make sale of the hereinafter described lands, the undersigned substitute trus tee will offer at public sale to the high est bidder for .-ash before the court house door of Martin County, Wil liamston, N. C., on— SATURDAY, August 26th, 1933, at about the hour of 12 o'clock noon, the following described lands— First tract: Beginning at a stake, W. G.

E. 18 poles, thence N. 50 1-4 poles; IN ANSWER TO A LADY'S LITTER A lady writes to say that she does not understand why an 8-oylinder oar does not cost more to run than a. car with fewer cylinders. She refers to my statement that our Ford V-8 develops more power on a gallon of gas than any car we have made. The use of 8-cylinders does not mean the addition of two Or four extra fuel consumers. It is not. for example, a 4-cylinder engine multiplied by two. Our 8-cylinder engine takes the fuel supply of an ordinary 4-cylinder engine and divides i_t eight ways. And why? By reducing four larger explosions into eight smaller ones, wo get ■ engine smoothness and quietness. Eight-cylinders indicate the wa£ the gas is used, not the amount. It is just the difference between going upstairs in four long Jumps or in eight ordinary steps. Two things use up gas—bad engine design and useless oar weight. Besides having an engine that gets a high percentage of power out of the fuel, the Ford V-8 has a light, strong body and ohassim so that no power is wasted in moving exoess weight. -> T he only extravagance about the new Ford V-8 engine is in the building of it. The extravagance is ours—the eoonosy is yours. The whole question of car economy needs clearing up. An economioal N oar gives eoonomy all round. Prioe, operation, upkeep, all play their part. If what you save on gas you lose elsewhere, that is not eoonomy. As to upkeep, our dealers say that in reoent years the improved ' quality of Ford oars has cut down their repair business 50 per cent. I As to price with quality,—judge for yourself. As to economy, here is the reoord of a stock car three weeks out of I , shop in Oklahoma: On a run of 10,054 miles at the rate of 1,000 milem a day—the Ford V-8 gave 18.8 miles per gallon of gas. Not a drop of watei* was added to the radiator. The oil was changed onoe in 1,000 miles. That should answer a lot of questions. July ! thence S. 85 deg. E. 17 1-2 poles; ; thence N. 2 1-2 deg.
