Address all communications to The Enterprise Ai CHKIS 1 MAS TIAIE Ounstiuas is the time of year when you maj.e your irienus Christmas pros enu expee tint; to receive gilts twice as vaiuauie irom them; /iiiu wnen you discover that >■ nave more incncts tnan it is tempor arily convenient to have, and that race suicnle is a mytn; And think how much better you might be than you are, and how much be*ter you are than you believed you were, and how much better also the - other fellow is than you gave him credit for being, and how much better the world is than you thought it was; And feel that there is something more of you than the purely physical and the material; And when a dollar seems to be less than a cent and it's a greater puzzle than ever how to make one dollar do the work of ten; And when everything looks differ ent and sweeter than it does at any other time; And when anyone who does not feel the Christmas *|>irit must be insane or an iceberg. And when you tliink how glorious it would be if we all practiced the Christmas spirit 36f> days a year in stead of only one; And can't give any good reason why we should not; Except that, desiring continuous' happiness, we havetf't sense enough to take the only road to it. ARK JUDGES TO BLAME FOR CRIME? Are judges to blame for crime, is a quetion that has been frequently asked. No one has given a definite answer to this question, yet there appears to be some reason for the idea that the judges are at least responsible for much of the crime of the (lay. Only last week, in the Federal court in Raleigh, Judge Isaac M. Meekins took the bit in his own mouth and' cleared a man charged with mail rob bery. Turning a guilty mdtr loose is not so bad, however, as humiliating three post-office inspectors, who had worked diligently to catch the man who was dishonest with the govern ment affairs. It is said that the district attorneys, inspectors, and others connected with the case were confident of guilt and Tobacco has Advanced since Thanksgiving All Grades are Some Stronger We advise you to sell Now if possible.

One of the government. * oiiieers had* gotten fWorjimtion -n>~ B drinking with certain bootleggers liiu the entire government force was sub- I jeclod to humiliation by dra.sj.ic lec- II Lures from the court. 1 The judges seem to take delight in e lasping officers and so much of it has 1 been done that officers are afraid to | r cSirry cases in court for fear they will | ' be humiliated by the presiding, judge. | '• Officers have become ai raid to raid | ' the rough houses, because they tear I the humiliation of the slanders emartr i ' ating from such places of prostitution, j : It seems to be one of defenses of li ' uuor rings to get women of ill fame to falsely charge officials who search their places for liquor in the discharge of their duty. If the courts are not responsible for ' a portion of the crime being commit ted, then some of the observers ar-' mistaken in their conclusions, i • WHOLE-TIME HEALTH OFFICER —; IS NEEDED The board of county commissioners at its regular meeting Monday dis cussed the question of a whole-time i' health officer for the county next year, i The Board could not do a more sen sible and sane thing than to estab lish such an office. While they did not take final action, the matter will be called up again and doubtless the necessary arrangements will then be made to establish the service in this county. In the mean time it behooves every person thut places any value on health to encour-1 1 age the board to establish a full-time • health department for the county. The average length of life has been increased more than 10 years within i the past 30 years, all because of teach f ing the people better health methods r.nd the numerous things that can be i done to stay epidemics and prevent : contagious diseases from spreading. I The Thomsonian day is passed, and i it is like the witch, it won't come back. The people have learned better now. , When Martin County falls in line , and gives the people a whole-time i health officer it will be performing a 1 great public duty.
