THE KINSTON DAILY FREE PRESS THE DAILY FREE PRESS . (Published Every Day Except Sunday) "rPCSTOM FREE PRESS CO, INC., KINSTON, N. C. B. CALT BRAITON EDITOR AND MANAGER (United Presa Report) ' (Entered at the postofflce at Kington, North Cnrolinr as ' second claia matter under act of Cong resa, Marcu 3, IHTJ.)

The full burden of preserving order should not devolve upon one city. Char lotte should have the State's backing in controlling the bunch of free talkers who arc expected to assemble. The esteemed Raleigh Times is quite optimistic in its prediction of good times. In commenting upon the opening of the Federal Re.-erve Banks and the New York and New Orleans Cotton Exchanges, it Kays that Monday .should have been a holiday and everybody should have celebrated it. In thi.s connection The Times .should bear in mind that the hanks always observe holidays, and the naming of Monday as a national holiday would have been similar to the calf that ate up "whar he wuz goin'." Off again on again Mexico! Mexico! Note: This is the latest from the world's greatest hotbed of rebellion. Kinston continues to demonstrate its ability to head the list of tobacco markets in the bright leaf section. The pricea are gradually getting better aa well. Just a booster note, that's all. The business of spying is a most hazardous one. Almost aa much so as that of flying. In the first case a fellow haa a minute or two after he is detected to make prepara tion!, and in the latter he haa to go prepared. There art 31 shopping days before Christmas. Do your ahopping early and avoid the rush, at the sumo time you will render a service to mankind by distributing the work of the salespeople and not force them to work long hours the last week or two. A news item says that a flour barrel of money was col lected between the halves of the Yale-Princeton football game Saturday for the benefit of the Ilelgian sufferers. It it to be hoped that the coins were of the "offering" variety, and not the "collection." Tht sale people and the store managers can do much to push along tht Christmas shopping by displaying their Christmas wares and making suggestions to all their cus tomer! that the Christmas stocks are ready for inspection. A hint to the wise it (quite frequently) sufficient A special "punching match" between Joe Mandot of New Orleans and Hal Stewart of Fort Wayne ia slated for to night In Kalamatoo, and admittance will only be given to women. The alleged object of the meet it to demonstrate to the women that prize-fighting it not so brutal? The "scrap" will no doubt be a tame affair "for demonstration purposes only." , 1 Brother Cowan from Wilmington observes: ' "Madhouse Micky," in the Charlotte News, declared that the paragraphers' cry is "On to Charlotte!" The question is, however, will they be onto Charlotte ? For Charlotte's benefit we suggest that she get onto "them," at they arrive, and not take any chances on allow ing too many to get astray in the city limits. The Free Press is glad that the City Council didn't find a way, even if that body had desired to da so, to reinstate the forfeited franchise rights of the Philadelphia gns concern. If that corporation meant business and has the "stuff" to back its desires, the machinery for proper rights will be set in motion without difficulty. If it lacks those requisites, the next applicant should have the floor. The National Women's Christian Temperance Union eel brated its fortieth anniversary yesterday. The annual convention now in session in Atlanta listened to addresses urging the ballot for women as an aid to national prohi bition. Great strides have been made by the force i fo temperance in the four decades, and Ion Ik-fore anothei tuch period elapses, it is safe to predict, the Nation will be as dry as a desert. Some of the lesser lights in the foreign war seem to be trying to involve Uncle Sam and other neutral nations Evidently with an idea of drawing the fire of their enemies away from their shores. Turkey had the audacity to fire on a launch carrying the Stars and Stripes, and was promptly informed by the commander of the cruiser Ten nessee that he expected to enter the harbor. The incident, which made Bob Evans famous, is recalled in which he in formed some South Americans that the lower regions would have the "aroma" of their garlic breath hhould any water he splushed on Uncle Sam's boat over which he sat. The wireless has altered the :;pectacular stunts of the commanders of Evans' palmy days, for now the Admiral has to await orders from Washington, as was the case in the famous salute the flag episode at Jampico. PAY-UP WEEK FOR KINSTON There has been some favorable comment on the sug gestion made last week by The Free Press for a "pay-up week" in Kinston. The plan has not taken any definite shape, however, but it should. Winston-Salem will observe the week of November 27, and urge all its citizens to dig down and "ante-up." Greensboro has already set the pace and turned loose a goodly sum of small change, which in the aggregate has helped to swell the circulation in that city considerably. Raleigh is talking about the plan. Why not set aside the last week in November for Kinston peo ple to attend to their obligations? There are just hun dreds of little accounts, insignificant in themselves but consequential in the total, open on the books of every firm in Kinston, which does a credit business. Accounts that could be paid without hardship or deprivation on the part of the payer, and which would help the merchants materi ally. Can't the capable Secretary of the Merchants' Asso ciation put the movement agoing? BELGIAN REFUGEE ENTERED IN SIX-DAY BICYCLE RACE New York. Nov. 17. Here's a real war item, Victor I.in.-ut, a U-.-lgian, entered in the six-day t.i.-yde rara here got in training for the cvir.t by running from the Ccrmnn-.

A German shell wrecked his home during the bombardment of Antwerp and he lost his racing outfit. This did not inter fere with his speed in reaching Os tend, however, and Floyd McFarhind, managing the six-day race, had new togs awaiting him here. In a letter to McFarland while at Folk-tone, Li nant said: "I rode my wheel from Antwerp to Ostend, and it was a hard ride. I was one of the last to leave Antwerp and the first to arrive in Oi-U-nd. My making wide detours to escape the awful congestion on the main high way, tripled the distance, and riding at top speed all the time, put mc in fine shape."

An observer calls attention to the fact that Lord Kitchener, who is directing the operations of the Brit ish winy, is sixty-five, yet there is no man in all of Britain so competent as he.

Which is the more weighty proof a few words from a Kinston resident, whom we know and respect, or vol umes from strangers in distant town?,? There can he only one reply. Emmett llaskins carpenter, 40.1 East Street, Kinston, says: "My kid neys were out of order, and I hud dull pains across my hack and loins. In the morning I was soro and lame and could hardly bond to pick up my tools. The kidney secretions were scanty, highly colored and contained sediment, 1 finally got Doan's Kidney Tills from the J. E. Hood & Co.'s drug store and they soon relieved me of the backache and all other symp toms of kidney trouble. Whenever my back or my kidneys bother me now, I always use Dean's Kidney Pais and they never fail to relieve ma Price iOc, at all dealer.
