Several of the most important bills that have been before the General Assembly of 1913 were disposed of during the niorning session of the Senate yesterday, which, lasted c-er five hours, fcreakinz the Senate's record in this respect. Judicial District The bifl fixing the twenty ju dicial districts of the State under the new scheme was disposed of and ordered enrolled for ratifica tion. .After a lively scrimmage, the Senate concurred in the House amendments, changing districts in which the counties of Onslow Davidson and Randolph are to be located, and no further amend ments were adopted. The House child labor bill pnssed its final reading in fhe Senate after amendments had been adopted eliminating the pro hibition of women working in the mills at-night. As amended it was sent back to the House for concurrence. The only real ad vance made in this matter is the prohibition of children working in the mills at niglft. and it is up to the county 'superintendents of education tn enforce this provis ion. "-'.

Defllri In June AS TO FURNITURE SALES SEASON Editor of Enterprise : Why not haVe tne 'first furni ture "season" this coming June? In my opinipn, he time is ripe for it. This opinion is based on months of consideration of the project fromrmany view points and consultatiojti with several o our leading manufacturers devel oped the fact that the opinion 1 shared hy many otheis. While it woutl be ideal to have one large exhibition building. do not think 'it 'is necessary to wait for it to be completed. If, in June, we could phow the visitors a inaertificient shuildinir in the course of constt'uetion, s much the better. If we cannot, the sue cess of the first "season" would make it much easier to interest the necessary tapital for the ercc tion of a building of sufficient size to accommodate all available lines. There is much to be done, and if a spring "show" is to be at tempted, immediate action should be taken. 1 would respecttuiiy sugges1 that you arrange for a meeting o all the manufacturers, to be heh; one evening next week at cither the Manufacturers or Industrial Club, for the purpose of learning the existing sentiment toward the j)lan. If it is approved, arrange' ments could be made at the same time for proceeding with the work Yours respectfully, M. W. Lloyd. i O - A WORTHY MOVE Mr. A. K. Tate has been ap pointed a delegate to visit Euroe under the auspices of the South ern Commercial Congress for the purpose of studying the rural credit svstem. The object in in sending a commission to Eu rope is to concentrate public in terest upon agricultural credit, with the expectation that a gen eral discussion may crystalize into practical legislation. By carelully selecting' the commis sion and restricting its member ship to those who are sincerely interested, it is hoped that the representatives from the different Southern States will render valu able work upon their return as propagandists for the movement. Such conception of the advantages which may be derived from such commission is sound, and the trip abroad is a worthy pne if it results in focusing public opinion upon the many advantages to be derived from the establishment of better agricultural credit facilities. WIFE-BEATER GETS 'TERM Recorder Edmonds sentenced Will Rankin to 30 days on the county roads this morning for beating his wife.

Extonolon of tho to Archdnlo A Protection In Moving Picture Shows Being a citizen of High Point and uninterested in any laws that the city might have in the regulation of the moving picture shows. Having been to N'cw citizen is to mention a few nut ters that they have possibly not thought of in regard to fire-proof and sanitary moving picture shows bavins: been to New York and other large cities of the country and seeing and knowing the large crowds that gathered around the moving picture shows and of all classes of people from the baby to the bid man. And as all diseases exist o ntnnir tin. different classes of .... --- the people 1 bclicva that every moving picture show that is erected in High Point or in fact in any other town in North Carolina should le made as near sanitary as possible. And my bet ter judgment tells me that no mnvimr nicture with a ceiling less r 1 than twenty feet in heighth could possibly be sanitary and then plenty of ventilation in the front and back, and suction fans con nected with the building to car ry oft the impure air. All foul air arises, and reverses and conies back unless there is some method to carry this air from the building. Now I give this as my exper ience on the moving picture show and hearing what has been said in regard to the different matters arising in this business. Another thing that no office should be allowed over a moving picture show or anyone to live over a moving picture show un- , & , . , 1 Kitchin, brother of the ex-gov-concrete and made strict fire- J 0 ricW proof. I mention this because if fire should break out overhead in rooms or offices and the moving picture show would be crowded at the time and someone should cry fire it would cause a serious panic and would possibly cause many lives to be lost. I further think that every moving picture sIiqw should have a machine room strictly fire-iproof, with open doors so in the event of fire that the operator would have an equal chance to escape front the place without serious injury. furthermore' I don't believe any operator running a motion pic ture machine should be allowe to run one until he is past the age of twenty one: 1 further be lieve and think that it should be a law in the city of High Point that no operator should be al lowed to operate a moving pic ture machine in this city who has not had as much as two years experience 111 that busi ness, and the nhe should" be thor oughly examined by the city electrician in regard to the elec trical knowledge that is requir ed to run said machine and if he fails to pass the examination let him serve six months before he will be elligible to another ex amination and give him an ex- amination every six , . months thereafter until he is " able to pass. '..':' : ' ': Now it is a well known fact by all moving picture manufac turers and exhibitors that these reels are made of celluloid and are very much in danger of fire in tne nanns of an inexperienced man. jor this reason every op erator should be made to stand an examination before he is al lowed to run within the corpor ate limits of any city any owner or 'manager of a moving picfure snow who employs an operator to run bis machine - unless the said operator has a license from the city of High Point, then his Car Scrvico Llvo Proposition MASS MEETING FRIDAY NIGHT. The citizens of Archdale will meet in public mass meeting next Friday night for the purpose of promoting the extension of a car line to that place. Among those from High Point who will address the meeting are Mayor Tate, J. J. Farriss, Dred Peacock. Esq.. and Postmaster W. P. Ragan. The Enterprise would indeed be pleased to see the extension of the car line to Archdale. ' All along the line, intervening and the town of Archdale furnishes one of the best residential sections for suburban homes to be found anywhere in this immediate sec tion. Fred Hull, national bank exam iner, is here for an official visit. Dr. Jackson, of Trinity, we un derstand. will take up his resi dence in High Point for the prac tice of his profession.
