In memory of HER Birthday, March 21. > SCATTER YE ROSEBUDS .. . Once in a blue moon we get a letter from some unknown friend, who appreciates our efforts to give our subscribers a good paper. These letters cheer us up eonsiderobly and help us to take with a better grace the knocks, which we get much more often and have grown so accustomed to receiving. We print our latest note with grateful acknowledgement for the sincerity of the writer ^nd do accept it as a challenge for the future. Damascus, Va. Editor of the Farmville Enterprise, Farmville, N. C. Dear Sir: My husband subscribed for your paper while in Ay den, during the month of November, and since then I have been getting the paper once a week. For a while I wondered who was sending me the paper but when he came hom^ he told me he had sub scribed for it, and had it sent in my name. I surely do enjoy reading it for it certainly is a good paper for such little cost per year. I receive sev eral papers, but like yours the best. Thanking you, I am, Very truly yours, MRS. J. C. ELLIOTT. PROFITS HAVE NOT ?

In view of such instances "it seems appropriate to ask just what profit returns these parties seek before they will agree that the system is not in danger?" _________ CHAMBERLAIN, AT LEAST TRIES _____ ; The world is watching the efforts of Mr. Chamberlain, of Great Britain, to reach a satisfactory basis of set tlement with Dictator Mussolini, of Italy. If the British leader can find some method of conciliating Italy, and la ter Germany, there is no disputing the gain to Europe, which will be thus removed a little further from warfhre. The criticism of Mr. Chamberlain, based largely upon idealism which we are inclined to share, loses sight of the existence of dictators and the necessity of living in a world that includes them. Whether we like the Italian or German form of government is not the point The question is, can one find an avenue of understanding that will permit nations to adjust their differences without resort to arms. If Mr. Chamberlain succeeds, in the face of odds, he will deserve much credit unless his accomplishment marks the surrender of principles that are vital to democratic nations and the future peace of the world at large. Gold Flawing FfomGoDtinent Capital Scrambling Out of Smaller European Countries to American Vaults. New York, March 15. ? The flight of European capital to the United States, p red pa ted by the Nazi coup in Austria, enabled New York bankers to arrange today for a shipment of $2,255,000 of gold from London to New York. It was the first important engage ment of yellow metal for import here from Europe since the gold tide turn-, ed last autumn and the U. S. treas ury modified its gold sterilisation policy. A possibility it might signal a new jans-Atlantic gold rush into the (j. S. Treasury's storage vaults was seen in exchange circles. Under the re cent change in the sterilization policy the Treasury will permit imports and newly-mined domestic gold up to $400,000,000 annually to . go into the credit structure and expand banking reserves instead of being locked up in the "inactive*' fund. In hanking quarters, another big gold import movement was expected to exert mild pressure for expansion of bank credit since surplus bank re -? ? serves have been mounting. The engagement announced late in the day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York was made possible by a further fall in the British pound against the dollar and in the Lon don market price for gold to a point where bankers could make a small profit on the shipment Until the march of German troops into Austria last week startled Eu rope and touched off a scramble to take capital out of the smaller Eu ropean countries, foreign funds had been flowing out of New York for weeks. Much of it, exchange men said had been going to London, Holland and Switzrland. FEARS WAR; KILLS SELF ? r . ! Manchester, England. ? Because of his fear that there would be an other war, Frederick. Stanbury, 43, whose friend was killed at his side during the World War, committed suicide. . An application of nitrate of soda applied as a top-dresser to small grain at this season usually means profita ble, increased yields per acre, report those farmers who have conducted such demonstrations. tnrtMn Manteo, March 14 ? The discon tinued Coast Guard stations on the Outer Banks will be taken over by the Army Air Corps and converted in to recreational centers for the offi cers and the enlisted men of the Ar my's air base at Langley Field, with the probability that an auxiliary landing field will be laid out .on Bodie Island for the convenience of officers flying here for the fishing at Pregon Inlet. Survey of the stations has been made by Capt Ward Jackson Davis, for the Air Corps, and negotiations are now under way with Admiral R. R. Waesche, commandant of the Unit ed States Coast Guard for the trans fer of the two stations to the Air Corps. The two stations, one on Bodie Island four miles above Oregon Inlet and almost within the shadow of Oergon Inlet light, and the other at Kitty Hawk, were discontinued as active stations last year. According to tentative plans the station house at Bodie Island will be converted to the use of officers of the Air Corps, and the Kitty Hawk sta tion, 20 miles north, and nearer Kitty Hawk and Nags Head beaches, will be reconditioned for the use of en listed men cf the Air Corps. The for mer can accommodate parties of 24 comfortably, and at Kitty Hawk, by converting the boat houses into sleep ing quarters, between 50 and 60 men can be taken care of at the time. Both stations are convenient to Oregon Inlet and the drum fishing there, and to Nags Head and its wide range of recreational facilities during the summer. It is planned to bring the enlisted men down for week-end outings during the summer season here, which begins formally on the night of July 3rd with the first of this year's scheduled 42 performances of Paul Green's symphonic pageant, "Lost Colony."

A new lamp whose beams protect a person against catching the other fellow's cold was announced yesterday at a meeting here of the American institute, New York's oldest scientific society. Many experiments with the tube lights were reported to the institute. Deryl Hart, M. D., surgeon-in-chief of Duke hospital, Durham, N. C., said the beams completely free the air of germs around a patient on the ope rating table. Dr. Hart announced the beginnings of this operating room experiment two years ago, the first in medical history. Yesterday he gave the re sults of 800 operations in air puri fied by the ultra-violet light He said the death rate in these opera tions was cut from 5.5 per cent to 2.9. Infections after breast operations were reduced from 31 per cent to 2.6. Infections after hernia operations were cut from 3.3 per cent to noth ing. In these three types of operations, fevers dropped respectively from 78 per cent to 22; from 54 to 21; and from 46 to 14. The leader in this community should be a worker not a voice to tell other people what to do. Ba C Una Sep ts Wilson, March 15. ? Over 500 boy scouts of the 21 counties comprising the East Carolina Council will gather here on April 22-24 at Gold Parte for their annual Scout camporeer Hundreds of scouts from Wilson, Nash, Pitt, Beaufort, Lenoir, Greene, Halifax, Edgecombe, Northampton, Martin, Bertie, Washington, Hert ford, Craven, Jones, Tyrrell, Dare, Hyde, Onslow, Carteret and Pamlico counties are expected to attend the event and it is understood that Gov ernor Clyde B. Hoey will be invited to attend the affair one of the three days. A survey of farm lands in Ala mance County by a committee of far mers indicated that C <100 acres are of doubtful value in farming; 17,000 acres have no agricultural value, and 2,500 acres are within town limits. TWs leaves 257,000 acres of agricul tural land though some of this lies within the acreaa oi un-incorporated towns. ^ pro ( MVIAST CROP WAS ABOUT THE ] / PRETTIEST TOBACCO f EVER RAISED. * I AND THE CHOICE PARTS OP IT WERE S B0U6HT BY CAMEL AT TOP PRICES.
