MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER t, 1911
, The Red Sox have decided advantage in having won
the clret game in tha world's aeries; bat then the spirit
" of the sportsmen will tall the Dodgers that the "game is
yet young" and that if their antagoniets rest on their
laurel the tide will quickly change for them.
There was considerable peculation in official circles re
garding the sodden and unannounced visit of the German
submersible Saturday to American waters. But to the
average fellow the mare statement that "aha had arriv
ed was proof conclusive that there was meanness in the
air and aoroe unsuspecting "watercraf t would probably be
testing snugly on the bottom of the great deep before
very much speculation could be carried on.
8UCCESS FOR THE WAYNE FAIR.
Tuesday the Wayne County Fair, In its initial exhibit,
will open its gates at Goldsboro. Great preparations
have bee made by the promoters of the community en
terprise to make of the fair a' great success. Much
splendid publicity has been given through the press of
' '
the State, and there is every indication that a fine record
will be made. Special trains will carry visitors from New
Bern, Kinston- and intermediate points.
The Free Press hopes that the people of Kinston and
this immediate eectkm will lend their encouragement to
the good folks of Wayne and help them make their first
fair a great big success. Incidentally we hope that our
neighbors will aee fit to reciprocate and come to Kinston
in large n ambers the week of October 24 to 27 for the
big things" that are to be pulled off here in tk second
annual exhibit of the Kinston Tair.
A line healthy circuit of fairs for Eastern Carolina will
do much to stimulate that wholesome rivalry, so conduc
ive to growth and prosperity. The development of the
section's resources can be encouraged in no better nor
more effective way thait by holding such fairs and exhib
its as will demonstrate its possibilties. Let there be riv
alry of that good friendly kind devoid of petty jealouaiea.
Some months ago anti-preparedness folks were stalking :
about the country and volunteering the information that no
German undersea fighter could make the trans-Atlantic
trip without an intermediate base. The arrival of the U-53
(Saturday and departure without so much as tha taking
on of a glass of fresh water puts to route all such theo
ries. "Necessity ia the mother of invention," and with
the Germans "everything aeems possible.''

Tha first news of ths arrival of the' Carman naval sub
marine off the American coast was given to the people
of Kinston through, ths columns of The Free Press Sat
urday afternoon. Tha "flash" from the ever alert and
wide-awake United Press came Just as the final score of
the first world's aeries game arrived. It was too late
; for much elaboration, bat the readers of Tha Free Press
knew that another unprecedented accomplishment had

A day and night spent fat Tarboro, the beautiful capital
of Edgecombe, in company with the good people there,
and tha representatives of the Christian Endeavor Socie
ties of tha (Northeastern' (District, in their first annual
district onvnthm, was both pleasant and profitable, The
cordial hospitality, characteristic of the South, was abund
antly la evidence, and the apirtt of welcome greeted the
delegates from 'Kinston and elsewhere throughout the dis
trict The inspiration of tha association with that aplen
did pah of Christian (Endeavor leaders, Southern States
Secretary Karl Lehmann and president of the North Caro
lina State Union George Mitchell was refreshing, indeed.
Incidentally, Tarboro shows much of the spirit of "move
forward" and progressiveness, which is blessing this sec

"SCHOOL DAY.
',. Wednesday, October 28, the second day of the Kinston
Fair will be "School Day," On that occasion, Deo Vo
lant e, the boys and girls, youths and maidens, jost blos
soming Into young manhood and womanhood will be as
sembled in Kinston in rfherahal array for the exhibit of
Lenoir's greatest asset. Twelve months ago, when "Edu
cational (Day" was celebrated, approximately five thous
and he largest parade of ths kind ever staged in the
State to that timemarched down Queen street and about
the fair grounds. Tha eight was most inspiring and gave
new impetus to the causa of education hereabouts. Not
a single untoward incident traneplred to mar that memor
able day. So well had tfe Wf marshal and his assist
ants arranged for the safety of the little fellows and so
perfectly disciplined were they, that not a hurt was scor
ed, in aplte of the fact that Xmston's population for the
occasion was mora than doubled, there being at least fif
teen thouaand visitors tere. .
' This year tha educational committee is planning even
bigger things. A great parade will be had and the peo
ple will ha given an opportunity once more to see In mag
nificent and impressive assembly those upon whom the
future of tha eeetion rests.
Success to tha plans, and may it be possible to bring
every boy and girl In Lenoir and adjoining counties here
for the day that should be the premier of the quartet.
ALL DIFFERENCES FORGOTTEN."
Richmond Virginian: "lion. Claude Kitchin says he has
swallowed the differences which cropped out between the
President and himself during the sessions of Congress,
and declares: 'Every Impulse of my being' impels me to
forget these differences and to support Woodrow Wilson
and ths Democratic party enthusiastically.
"So say we all! There may be some who take the ex
treme pacificist view that our military preparations are
unwarranted and extravagant while others may take the
other view, that professed by Roosevelt and his ilk, which
is that our preparations for war don't go half far enough;
but, we believe, Americana generally endorse the reason
able preparations for emergencies now making.
"These preparations should not, and, in the hands of
Woodrow Wilson and the Democratic party, will not, be
construed as a menace to any nation in either hemisphere.
America, however, must assure itself against trouble by
carefully selecting the men in whose hands the great
power of government is to be placed.
"Had the world war come in the seven years of Theo
dore Roosevelt's administration, who can tell the sorrow
and death and debt it would have entailed on this nation?
"Our Chief Magistrate- ia a constitutional ruler, but
there are lodged In his hands powers so large and varied
and influences so potent for good or ill that to entrust
them to an unworthy or vicious person is unthinkable.
"Then let a united America declare strongly, unmis
takably for the man who represents America's best
thought Woodrow Wilson.

INTENSIFIED FARMING.
Winston-Salem Journal: "Alfred Carlstead was the
son of a Minnesota farmer. His father, a 'practical farm
er,' with progressive notions, sent him to the State Agri
cultural College, in spite of the disapproval of his practi
cal neighbors. The father died when Alfred was 19 years
old, and nearly through his college course. He left the
boy the land, aworn-out set of farm machinery and some
debts, with two small brothers to care for.
"The neighbors advised Alfred to sell the farm. They
merely smiled when he spoke of jumping in and applying
the scientific methods he had learned at the agricultural
school. Such 'theories, they told him, we're no good
When it came right down to the actual business of farm
ing.
'Alfred decided, nevertheless, to go ahead with the farm
and run it according to the principles of modern, scien
tific agriculture. The first year he had all aorta of trou
ble. His friends advised him more strongly than eve;
to sell out and try something else. But he kept on eag
erly, refusing to give up his 'theories.'
"He has been at it four years now. He hss paid off
every dollar his father ow1, restocked his farm, outfitted
it with modern machinery, put up some new buildings and
improved his soil. Last year he cleared $17,000. This
year he started in with everything paid for and $20,000 in
the bank.. At least, so say reliable reports.'

"Millions of the present generation,
who must soon in their turn assume
the responsibility of conducting the
affairs of the republic, should know
our history and renew acquaintance
with the type of men who were scouts

built the foundations on which the
present great commercial prosperity
is based," said Major John M. Burke,
here Saturday. Major iBurke is a
long-time "side kicker' of Buffalo
