The Ffcmvilte Enterprise -PeWMiiil by_ THE ROUSE PRINTER Y G. A. Rome,- Editor and Manager Subscription Price One Year $1.50 Six Months .75 Three Months .40 Adrertiaing Rates Punished on Application to Manager Entered as second class mail matter May the 10th, 1910, at the postoffice at FarroTille, North Carolina, under the Act of Masch 8rd, 1878. I THE VALUE OF COURTESY There are certain things that cost nothing, and yet yield greater divi dends than the highest md most de sirable securities on the market. Among the most profitable of these is "courtesy." A smile, a cheerful greeting, a pleasant word or two, a willingness I to please, a sunny disposition, all I help to strengthen the bonds of I friendship between merchants and | customer. The business world has no place for the grouch or person of sour disposi tion. So far as intelligence con cerned he may be superior, but if he has not learned the value of courtesy, his future in the commercial world is not very promising. Many business men who find their trade slipping away from them fail to understand why. Their merchan dise is the very best, their prices are reasonable, and yet the trade prefers to patronise their competitors. Very often the remedy lie3 with the merchant himself. A little cour tesy handed out to customers when they enter the store will keep them coming back for more. And the beauty of it is that it costs nothing. Since courtesy is so reliable and so cheap, dig in, get your share of it and put it into play. Light Turns Corner 1 I Edward S. Berry, Lyna.

You're heard of England's petal- , otic exhibition, at Wembley, planned to boom the British Empire and arouse British patriotism. * V . The best imperial exhibit shows a map of the world of gigantic slat, with the oceans, aeas and blggar lakes made of real water, Britishers walking around that map see all parts of the earth's sur face owned by them lighted up fay red lights from. below. They see thousands of British ships storing along through the water on the great world's trade routes. Slgus tell them that the British dag dies orer one qp?rter of all the land on earth. When the rlsltor from Canada. Australia, South Africa, sees that he says td himself "Partnership In the British Empire la a pretty good thing." And other nations Including ours are bound to gire the Britishers credit for governing ability. You sow the other day a statement bjr the British Labor Prime Minister , Mad kJftald, that the whole army of the British Empire is smaller than the atiuy of Holland or Spalu. That means good management. The great Everett Cotton Mills of Lawrence. Massachusetts, have closed. "No demand for colored cot ton goods." And England is shipping millions of yards of colored cotton cloth Into this country. The stores discover that goods sell more easily when labelled "Mado in England." It wouldn't be a bad idea to have at Washington, and In .every big city, a patriotic map showing what the United States amounts to. We don't own one-quarter of the earth's surface. But ws have got a couple of oceans, some big lakes, the ?Mississippi, Niagara Falls, the Heckles, more than half of all the ^irl on, ci*am th?t into *s53<y,?5 ,:,: Tftti km tk mi It Ik Ma mtkWss.
