CL, on dar act of March 3rd, 1878. | Money talks except when it is making an exorbitant profit. The trouble with most editorial paragraphs is the lack of ideas. Newspaper man's dream: Two weeks to go and no deadline to catch. Any fool can plan a program, but nobody, except a fool, never plans. *As we read the news, almost every thing is streamlined or bottle-neck ed. There is only one time for any individual to take a forward stride: J immediately. Education, like vaccination of the individual, is a good thing provided it "takes." ? As profits begin to pile up. busi nessmen begin to warm up to the defense program. The individual has to be taught to appreciate and support the better things of life. The Enterprise hopes to render service to its subscribers but it can not give you the best service unless you .give it your cooperation. THE SOUTH SUPPORTS BRITAIN It is interesting that the Southern States show a greater willingness to take the gamble of a possible war re sulting from aid to England than any other section of the United States. The South, it should be recalled, did not have the moral support of the British government in the War Between the States but, by contrast, the British have the full measure of Southern support at the present time. "ENGLAND WILL WIN" "England will win," says Quentin Reynolds, war correspondent. and magazine writer, who was in France throughout the German assault and in England for months under Nazi bombings. The correspondent, lately returned to this country, says on the basis of his experience, that "England not only can take it, she will keep right on taking it." Mr. Reynolds says that the British have the will to take it, and nothing will crush them. They have enough of the things they need now and he doesn't think that the Germans will be able to keep supplies from America from reach ing the British. I SPRING, 1941 The year 1941 gets underway with the fate of the world in doubt with two great peoples fighting to the death across the Atlantic Ocean and the impact of their encounter spreads I around the world. I Winter is around us but Spring is I just ahead. To many brave men it will bring suffering and death; to untold millions, despair, devastation and disaster. Nature revolves in her normal cycle. Flowers will soon replace ice and btjqw as the gaunt and bony hand of death prematurely closes the I eyelids of num. I The earth will be clothed m beauty I even though the heart of mankind throbe in bloody agony as men pay for their errors, ignorsnoe and sin. Buds will blossom again on the face of the earth, without knowing I. that meo have died, but humanity I will smile in the midst of grief, I ' knowing that mankind will bloom I again. I BiOW THE U.Sw WOULD I BE ATTACKED I The standard of living in the Unit ? * od Stitw depend# ppon idfwxntto against the UnftecTstatee. Not only the United States, resulting in strikes, increased radicalism and a general breakdown in the stability of the social order. This, in turn, would affect the Government and seriously impair our defensive position. An Axis war against the United States, after such an economic de bacle bad wrecked the morale of our people, would be a pushover. BOOK REVIEW In order to stimulate interest in the. better books on the Farmville Library shelves, Miss Emily Gayle, librarian,, has requested patrons to write short reviews, which will be published in these columns each week. THE NAZARENE The Nazarene is not a book to idle away some moments; it is a book that will grasp your mind; it will stir your emotions. It is the story of Jerusalem under the hated Soman rule; it is the story of the people that Jesus knew and the atmosphere into which He was born. Written in three parts, the book is thoroughly realized and vividly expressed. The second part, fragments of the Gospel according to the disciple, Judas Iscariot, is revealing in it's scope of understanding. The author, Sholem Asch, jewish novelist and playwright, was born in Poland in 1880; he pos sesses both the talent and the schol arship requisite to such an under taking. ?Mrs. Mac Carraway.
