WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, OCT. 13, 1915. We extend a hearty jnvitation to Brittan, Cowan, Horne, Bigg?,. Gocrch and the remainder of the fellows who play tag with the key board of a typewriter, to be with us next Saturday and assist in drinking mi lemonade and eating pop corn.?New Bern Sun. If Crumpler isn't going to blow himself any more than did Brittan, when the fair was in Raleigh, wo believe we'll stay home. When you see * fair damsel passing down the street and notico that every one who meets her turns around for another glance, you can bet that she ha* taken advantage of the '?tiering* of t hi' loca! merchant* during "Dre*s lTp Week." Some of our eon temporaries art* ?o stubborn-minded that they still persist in giving the war news'more spaco and better location in the paper than the reports of the ball game*. For th?* benctit of a number of persons who have stopped us on the street during the last day or two, we Would like to say that the '"Biggs' ' who commit tod suicide at Bethel was not the ?ame person to whom we have referred to several times in these columns a* being editor of the Greenville Reflector. The latter in still alive and kick ing and in love. WANTED: SOMETHING TO INTEREST. If there is one thing that the people of Washington can get in terested and enthused over, we would certainly appreciate it if souk? kind person would tell us what it is. We don't mean ten o# twelve of our citizens?we mean the majority of them. Isn't there some work or pleasure over which other cities become interested in, that would effect Washington the same way? It certainly isn't city development;?die attendance at the Cham ber of Commerce meeting shows that. It isn't a better-roads movement;?recent activities have denied that fact. It isn't church work;?for a mere handful of people attended the revival that was recently held at the Baptist Church. It isn't social activities, dances, or other pastimes of that nature; ?an account of the activities of the social set proves that. It isn't baseball;?the lack of interest in the world's series read ily gros to show that. What is it t Other cities in this section of the State have shown no end of in terest and enthusiasm over the above-mentioned activities. Kinston is going to pave CO blocks; Now Bern is building better roads; Greenville has just concluded a revival at which almost 200 were converted, and at Rocky Mount the streets are lined with hundreds of fans who watch the world's serie? games on the score boards. Is there anything that tho citizens of Washington can become ir? terested in and that they are willing to work for? ON A CASH BASIS. A prominent eitizeu of Washington who is in a position to know what he is talking about, recently marie the statement that "there is more business done on paper in Washington than in any other city of its size in the State." Judging from the number of bill col lectors on th?- streets the first of every month and a number of busi ness transactions of which we have happened to gain knowledge, ih remark quoted above is not far from the truth. There i* no excuse for a man having a Kill of good* charged ti hi? account when he has tho money in bin pocket to pay for h purchase?. And even if one is short of cash at the time, it is a (?mall inconvenience to write out a check to pay for whatever arti clcs are liought. If u man has no money, he cannot pay for what he buy?*, and these an* the only men who should ask for credit,. The loca I drug stores recently took an important step when they refused to sell drinks sud cigars on credit. If some of the other store? were to follow suit. it. would work to a general advantage. It would improve business conditions in Washington wonderfully. FINDING FAI'LT. One of the most abused practices today is the finding of fault with everybody nnd everything that displeases us in any way. An other term that expresses it more aptly is "KNOCKING." Knocking is n fashionable amusement, although it isn't alone found in fashionable circles. It is n most interesting pastime and it never loses interest or fancination. Some persons would rather luiock ari individual or a conc-rn than attend a good show at a theatff^ -they get a great deal more amusement out. of it. Nothing does more harm than a spiteful and unjust statement of criticism. It ?Iocs absolutely no good in doing away with the thing that is criticised, but instead it causes a feeling of resentment and anger on the part of the person who is interested in the subject or person that, is being knocked. In connection with this line of thought, the Raleigh Christian Advocate contains an interesting paragraph, which reads as follows: "To find fault, is an nasv and hurtful thing to do, but to give intelligent criticism of men or events is quite another matter, and when conducted in the prop er spirit is a very helpful exercise. "A very dangennis thing at best, this finding of fault. In tho common acceptation it is believed to mean that s wanton, vengeful motive is tho only one in it. In this light, faultfinding is a high crime and misdemeanor, but tbe faultfinding alluded to by tho Advocate is sometime? very necessary. And even then, it cannot be done too sympathetically and tactfully. Otherwise, it were better not dope at all," (By ZMUn mm) .
