The Fumeflfe Enterprise THE RO0SE PRINTER Y G. A. Rouse,- Editor and Manager Subscription Price One Year : $1.5? Six Months .75 Three Months r .40 Advertising Rates Punished on Application to Manager Entered as second class mail matter May the 10th, 1910, at the postoffiee at Farmville, North Carolina, under the Act of March 3rd, 1878: Friday, July 24th, 1925 Just as you give your automobile more care in winter to get geet - re sults, so the radio needs more care ful attention in the summer. A Pennsylvania surgeon asserts that it is his right to tattoo his in itials on a patient after a successful operation. Connie Talmadge says "it depends on the er geography of the imprint. Blanche Sweet, another screen star, thinks the scheme is all right, but Anna Nielssen wants to know why she should be a bill board ! for a surgeon who does not belie vein advertising anyhow. She qualifies this opinion by suggesting that the surgeon's fee be waived for the priv ilege. And there you are. The federal trade commission will ask congress to take action on the an thracite coal question by restoring competition. Seventy per cent of the coal is now produced by eight large companies owned by or affiliated with railroads. High prices are attributed to wholesalers and speculators before reaching the retailers. The commis sion is handicapped in suggesting a real remedy because it involves gov ernment or state operation, and that i is looked upon as "radical." Mean while coal users are at the mercy of the men who find a way to defeat the laws and pile up enormous profits. ?? *j A SMOKELESS NATON " i , It is predicted that America will be the first nation to outlaw smoke, soot and ashes by using gas fuel in stead of solid fuel for heating pro cesses in shops and factories. It will be first to have its homes heated by gas, thermostatically controlled. The increasing use of gas is an in evitable result of modem demands for comfort and efficiency to which most be added the growing convic tion that human life and property are suffering incalculable damage from the smoke evil. The progress of fori conservation depends upon the progress of gas util isation. The public is beginning to see this truth and act accordingly. The gas industry has grown because it has saved coal, labor and money for the public. STATE FORESTRY The state of Connecticut has taken a long step forward toward forest planting and preservation of existing forest wealth. The Nutmeg State, with no moun tains, little hill country and mostly stripped of its original woods, appro priated this year $445,000 for-acquir ing state forests. That little New England .state has the nerve to select 25,000 acres of land suitable for forestry, and aims to plant trees and redeem 200,000 acres of woods. Scientific -forestry and fire protec tion for trees should be made a vi tal issue in every state in our coun try and the little 'New Engfated com monwealth is setting a fine example planting raw material for >its tradi tional wooden nutmegs. IN THE NAME OF THE FARMER ??- ' - . It is predicted that the socalled * farm bloc in the coming session of - congress will include an .attack on the tariff schedules in its progiatai unless the Woe can secure passage of^* * measure to assure some form of price fixing on farm products;by the fed eral government and establishment by the government of an agency that shall boy the farmers' export, aur plus. The whole program is, carried on in the name of the fanner when, as a matter of fact, the rank and file of for ana coddling at tne ? % _ 'M tT gorernmu* xx r -xi_ j. ? i ' * ? ?? <r>t9' ' ' fnA f AnriAT is nsPn AS Q <1 h lir 1 An extra piece 'ef luggage, smaller than a suitcase, anrighing less than forty pounds, strapped to the running board, means a world of entertain ment on your automobile tour. Dances, music, talks, ebmedy, plays, travel ogues, sports, news, weather fore costs, stock reports?who can afford to leave radio at home? THE LAW OP COMPULSION, DO WE WANT IT? . Insurance today is purchased with out the pressure of public authority. Premiums are voluntary payments made by the buyer for protection to his person or i>rcf>erty, or both. *It is this absence of compulsion and en ervating influence of bureaucracy | which has permitted insurance to de i velop freely and to become a potent factor in the social and industrial Je velopment of the last century. * To change insurance from the status of a voluntary association for self pro tection to the status of an involun tary association for protection of others'means the prostitution of in surance to meet political needs and class demands. If insurance can be made compulsory and used for. the purpose of providing indemnity for certain highway accident victims, it may be made compulsory in a variety of other situations. ? liUUD WIIaLi The United States supreme court has defined Qpod Will as "the dispo sition of a pleased customer to re turn to the place where he has been well treated." Good Will may well be termed the personality of business. It is the pro duct of growth founded on the power and the will to serve. In the final analysis, it is value built up through outstanding service that is reflected in many ways. It is a reflection of quality of product or service, pro gressive methods, fair dealing, a high standard of character and efficient management and personnel. A great many of the most profit able industries capitalise this good will sometimes to an amount equal or even greater than the money capital invested. >?; Good Will can be created by the printed word only in so far as . that, word reflects the integrity of the in stitution behind it. Good will is admittedly the most valuable asset thatMmy business com j munity can pefgss. , . U The merchants, manufacturers and business men of Farmville endeavored to establish this Good Will with their patrons, customers and friends, and. believe the Good Will of this com tion of every member of the' com* r" : .'V v. -t " ?<>* i ? 1 1 1 ? , ' m m+mpmmrnmm Report of the Condition of t Citizens Bank I at Faravllle, N.

Horcon, Notary PoHfe. My Commission expires October 3, 1925. Correct?Attest: y T. C. TURNAGE, / ?.?: (.NEW, Raleigh, July 23.?Thrde oustand ing developments-in the affairs of the Tobabcco Growers' association during the past week indicate that the fight on the organised growers is weaken ing most where the attack has been; haviest. The first is the popular reaction to, 'the resignation of-Dr. James Y. Joy? ner, former superintendent of pdbllc instruction in North Carolina, as an employee of the association. Dr. Joy1 ner, in sever&g his official connec tion with the association, tendered his ; sendees in the interest of the'associa tion without pay.. "Jjet. me congratulate you with all my heart upon the inestimable service you have rendered the ^mancipation of the farmer," a well known Eastern NorthN Carolina minister wrote Dr. Joyner. Many other letters have been received lauding the position of Dr. Joyner, who is as zealons in be : half of the movement which means prosperity on the farms as he was for almost 20 years in behalf of ex tending the public school system to every child in North Carolina. Opponents of co-operative market ing suffered another setback, when? in a speech at Zebulon, one of the ex position propagandists was asked point blank by a member grower if he had not been employed to make "anti-co-op" speeches by the organ ised auction warehousemen, the speaker denied any collusion but ad mitted that he did not take the stamp against the association until after a long interview with an offfdal of the organized warehousemen's associa tion. Sn much hnntMnoH hv wav of turn ing back the under cover fight which opponents of co-operative marketing have been making.' On the other side of the fe/ice was the announcement from headquarters this week that the new sign-up cam paign has brought into the fold of or ganised growers over seven' hundred new members. Most of these new memberships are in South C*arolina territory, although quite a few have come from Colum bus, Bladen and Robeson covin ties. The result as viewed by association offi cials, is & most effective answer, to the hostile attacks which being made by .agents of the auction sys tem. Figures which have been made public in a series of newspaper . ad vertisements from Raleigh hhadquar teibj according to .director*the field,have served-to present'tfie co operative marketing question ?o bus iness men in a new light and the .tit*' championship of thf association. , ,Tl? 200,000,000 slogan for 1925, lew coftftng to thfl goqfi news which' is now reaching headquarter* dally, is'not an EXECUTOR'S NOTICE ? * Having qualified aa executor of the ?state of Dempaey F.

He will be praised becanse be has never set a bad exampla of os tentation and extravagance to em bitter the poor. All except his contributions to knowledge will be forgotten in 600 years.
