Address all Communications to THE ENTERPRISE, Willinmston, N. C. - - Friday, January 17, iqi^ it is new Governor Craig. The State under his administration will go forward along every line. If the VTrVi Kenvon hill to prevent liquor being shipped into > dry States pass«.s, there will be a percrptihle change in tlie morals ami financial conditfoi of m.mv of the people in this State. If men would cea.se to di ink the stuff., our State would lie a veritable hnd of hi essedness. To promote harmonv, those members of the Senate who object ed to tie hcni"rity rule, were aske i tc let the matter r st. Woodrow Wil.on waits a harmonious parly to sustain him in the coming four venra. But be inti.rales that th'-ie J i must be a strict nrlherenre to Demo cratic pth'.ciples. and those whu have veertd oft mu-t return >.r tin administration will not redeem its pledges There is oue reform which the Legislature sbou'd institute. That Is, every Jud>>e in North Carolira should be required to convene his court at the hour set unless pro videutially hindered.- Judges have the liabit of appearing a day or a halt late, but every juror must be at the county seat and hang around wasting many hours when be might be at home working. Constitutional Convention Hon. Harry V. Stubbs, of Mar tin County, v* ho at the last Legis lature introduced a bill to hold a Constitutional Convention, has put another bill before the Senate call iug for a Convention, the authority to hold sam-i to be decided at the nevt genera! election. The hold ing of such a Convention is an im portant question for the Legislature to decile Wisdom should prevail, as in atTTjuestions of Constitutions v and amen iiuenis. S :iis very a ' i men throughout the S:ate have .1 ,'revd th it such a Convention s'.to :!.l he held, but there arc- still .\ u '• 1 w'u y >ee great diu ;cr u.1.-s ;x pioper dif!e;;atts c \r. !r >i»..t '.«» ;ic 'idv : 1 j the best at ill ,t Cov.-ntiou. It is] fiope.l thai the j nut i\v:i'r.iM . s at Halet.; ; i w'! d .ode xv.-i lv 111 the in il tcr Give Them Six Months l*or the la..* t twelve years North Carolina Lias made wonderful pro gress a!o:: educational Hues. The splendid work of the late Charles B, Aycock was the foundation stone upon which has been built a larger and (letter structure of ed ucational growth, until bigger and ■ better school h.us-.s add to every district in the State. There, are very few towns which do not have inoderniy equipped High School buddings. Tne advantages offered hoys snd girls iu the rural districts art almost equal to those in town. But the one great Haw in the sys tem is the short tetm in which the country children have to master »he • different branches. There are many who cau on!j:~get two of the v \fr>ur-raoatbs offered them. If we are to be an educated people, arc to give every boy and girl in North Carolina a chance to fit themselves j for the business of life, then a longer school term will have to be given these younger citizens of a great commonwealth. The power to do this mnch ior our children lies in the bauds of the ■ I 1 Legislators at R&leith. It is a question which should be .setteleii new. A six-month term for all the public schools of the State is oue of the most important things before that body. We want it for Martin County, and the county is in line for this or.ward movement. ( We boast of our improvement, let , us have something better to feel proud of. We urge the passage of a bill to give the coming citizens a broader chance to become educated in mind and body. - . .11 TT u.-- Should be Amended The Parcels Post needs an amendment, so that third class nutter can receive the benefit as well as fourth class packages. It is strange that the law should not have mchiucd books printed mat ter, etc , in its scope of helpfulness to the people. It restrict- nuttei which should go through the mails at the low cost now in order. Con gress should at once auieu i the law and make the benefit larger. If we desired to ship a package to one of our customers at RoPer sonville, or Kveretts, it must go by express, costing twenty five cents Tin: same package by parcels post w >uld not cost halt as much, liv regular postage, the cost would be extravagant. The govertime >: evidently has a grudge agaiu-l printers, as it farms out the p.i.u trig of envelopes t» oue firm. t!r.«s t iking thrtiisauds of dollars froui I t'.i * pockets of the ptinteis t hrotigli 1 1 out tLiv rouutrVv It is sptcies of I f .voiitisin which the incomiug Democratic administration should cutoff, (hve the printers a chance to live. They help support tin government, yet rue made to feel the tfleets of a tru-t inaugurated by the government. It is biith time something was b*.iug done. Our Home Town The day Seldom atrives in a man's life when he ceases to be iuteresttd in the daily or weekly paper of the place that he has once called home Granted that it is printed on the poorest paper, grautcd that the typographical display would make the spirit of Beu Franklin blush; granted that thete are no editor ials, or editorials that are not worth reading—grant all this, and still your feelings and iuir:e and those of every other healthy mc.rtal are summed up in this little poeui, from the Denver Post: When the eveuiu' shade is fallin' at the end ; n' o' tin? day, An' a feller rests from labor, stuck iu' a: his- pipe o' clay.
