Editoi WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, DEC. 2, 1916. - ? H The Christmas edition of the Daily News, which will soon be off the press, is going to be the handsomest <wer aeen in Washington. And it will contain much useful information for Chritimaa, shoppers. Villa is now accused of having murdered a large ujmber of *for eigneis, including Americans, at Chihuahua. If the report is true, Mr. Villa might just as well be planning to get a g-^oJ running start in the direction of South America. Some inquiry is being made as to why the night school. has been abandoned and whether it could not be possible to start it up again next month. It appears that the principal obstacle in the way of continuing the school is the lack of teachers. It is to bo regretted that the school should be allowed to die out. It accomplished much good last year and we trust that the money will be raised somehow or { ther to enable tho pupils to receive further instruction next month. GERMANY'S PEACE SPIRIT. Chancellor Von Hethmann-IIcllwcg has announced that Germany while still unconquerable, is ready for peace. He endeavors to tc!i the world that it is not Germany's fault that tohe war is going i?ii, but that the blamo rests entirely with he allies. He savs: "Again and again we declared our willingness to enter into negotiations of peace. Our expressions- have never been responded to. In soinc quarters they have been represeuied as dictated by weakness and fear. Surely the events of the past year sufficiently denK-natrate that wc did not a yearago speak out of weakness or fear, just as events of the twelve month* to conic will demonstrate that if wo still adhere to our willingness to consider a cessation of the strug^e, ?we are obeying the simple dictates of humanity, not of appre hension." There is nothing new in the Chancellor's declaration. Germany was ready for peace six months after the war began. So were the allies for that matter. All sides are now ready 'for peace. They are as eager to quit fighting as Von Bethmann-IIollweg professes Germany to ho. There is only one little difficulty in th& way of calling a halt, to the war, ? and that is the TERMS of peace. If the allies \vere to listen to Germany's peace overtures now, they would have to mako certain yields ? in tho way of territory or repara tion ? which would make Germany appear to be the conquerot and the allies the conquered. And if ,on the other band, the allies proposed peac* terms to Germany at tho present time, they would undoubtedly want Germany to yield many things which Germany has no intention of yielding. It is doubtful whether any real steps toward declaring peace will be taken until one side or the other is in such condition that it is necessary to accept what is offered. And if peace were declared now, it would mean the continuation of bitter feeling between tho nations involved for generations to come, for e$eh would declare itself to l>e the victor and each would hoa-t of its military power and achieve ment until feelings again reached such a stage that it would only take a pmall provocation to send them flying at each other's throats again. Now that the war has gone this far, it would bo Ixstter for all of the warring nation- ? and the world as a whole? -to keep it up to the end until one side or the other i? forced to surrender. A LARGER YIELD OF TOBACCO. All indications at the present time point to as good ? if not better ? prices for tobacco next, year as they have been this season. For this reason it is already being urged that the farmers of Beaufort county make up their minds to increase theiT acreage for- the. coming season. Wt, are extremely fortunate in. this respect, for we have the avail able land nceessary. In other counties, where practically all of the land is under cultivation, it is impossible to make any groat increase in acreage. But here in Beaufort, we have thousands of agresfthft would make the finest kind of tobacco land. The Tobacco Board of Trade, the Chamber of Commerce, or some other organization, should take up this matter and discuss it with the farmers at cure. We believe that if the farmers can be shown that the price is going to hold up well next year, there will bp little difficulty in having the tobacco acreage in the county increased at least twenty-five pe rcent, if not more. TITE COMMTTCITY CHRISTMAS TREE. Other cities in this section of Hie state aro already making-prepa rations f.?r getting up a Community Christmas Tree. Greenville, Kinston, New Bern and other towns had the frees last year apd they will all undoubtedly have them again this Christmas. The matter wan discussed in Washington to some* extent last year, but no action was raken. Whether we ore going to do anything this Christmas remains to be seen. The community Christmas tree is an innovation which has proven popular the country over. Thousands of cities have had the trees erected in a conspicuous place and helped to make Christmas moro enjoyable and moro real to their citizens. Rich and poor, old and young, find the huge, lighted Christmas tree an inspiration of the true Christmas spirit to them. It draws the people closer together and it aids in making the Christmas season more impressive, ? more realistic. And, in addition to this, hundreds of rfiildren, who will have no Christmas trees of their own, will find joy and pleasure in the munic ipal tree. We sincerely hope that Washington will be among the many cities that will have trees this Christmas and that we will have a "municipal celebration" in which ail at thf riliw w?M join. ?a I ?

No one would think of riding in a freight car if he could enjoy the comfort of a big, comfortable easy riding Pullman parlor car. 89 with automobiles, Most of the popular priced cars ride like freight cars. This is due to the old fashioned type of spring. Many manufacturers still continue to use them. ' The Overland does not The 75 B Overland has the latest type of cantilever shock absorbing v springs.
