C., un | der act of March 3rd, 1878. ? Efficiency systems are those that allow the boss to get off for golfing. Time passes rapidly for a busy man; only the loafer finds the hours long. Advertising ? if you do it ? pays you if you don't?it pays your com petitor. Most men who give annonymously to charity see to it that it is well known. It is often very important to dis cover who is putting the "prop" to the proposition. Add human observations: Few in dividuals lose time in collecting their pay checks. The greatest trouble -with those cute baby voices is the baby brains that go with them. Spring is the logical to beautify Farmville. Lefs start making plans toward that end. Paying up delinquent subscriptions is one way to get your local news paper publish optimistic "news." There are two mistakes you can make in speculating?you can get in too early, or you can get out too late. As we have said before, itinerant passersby are not interested in what the future has in store for Farmville. The pay-c ff in the business world depends upon delivering the goods, not upon your intentions. Romance vanishes when a wife sees nothing but a meal-ticke in her hus band. Isolation in world affairs is based upon the theory that the United States, the world's richest nation, is too good to play with the bad boys. The country must be going to the dbgs; some devotees of bridge are re ported to be enjoying Chinese check Ma. A nwn with a good salary is sel dom inclined to believe that the pub lic be helped by a reduction in Ms pay. It may sound old-fashioned, but the best business man knows that his success upn" service to bis ? am* ?* we know, no medicine! |gpi been discovered to cure a virulent attack of the "big head**, a really ' ' tHi peojfle of the United States spend enough money on education etony year to be certain that the country naa some or iw we know of to get ouknf debt is to pay your money on w$it you ova.

One trouble with the United States is the number of professional pa* triots who are on the look-out for personal profit Every time some expert predicts the end of our oil reserves, some other expert comes along and dis covers a new oil field. Despite the opinions of some wo men, the proper diet for a growing child is more important than a grand slam in bridge. What has become of the old-fash ioned man who believed that the pro fessions were dominated by men not interested in profit? ? n* A newspaper, it appears, is not a necessity; Wilkes - Barre, Pennsyl vania, was without a newspaper for more than four weeks. Advertising, according to business experts, produced business in 198% and the supposition is that it will do the same thing in 1939. It will be a bad day for Americau freedom when the loyalty of a citi- I zen depends upon pleasing a self- [ appointed group of super-patriots. Having surrendered Czechoslovakia! to Germany, Great Britain and! France are now giving up Spain to I Italy. Peace, it seems, has a price. WASHINGTON A HUMAN BEING The birthday of George Washing ton, first President of the Uhited States (brings forth the usual ora-1 torical flourishes and the annual flood t of praise that it is so fulsome as to cause nausea. The Enterprise yields to no one in its admiration of the virtues and ability of our Revolutionary leader whose greatness is indelibly stamped upon the history of this country. HiS leadership in war and in peace and his general accomplishments estab Ish him as one of the giants of his day. ? George Washington, the man, be comes somewhat lost in the barrage of adjectives laid down by present day speakers, who attempt to iden tify themselves, or thier ideas, with the great Virginian. Let us not low sight of the fact that George Wash-1 ington was & human being, with some -of the frailties that inevitably belong to man. Accepted in this light, his"! .liffe becomes more understandable and his virtues shine more brightly. Our first President was not a pro phet, able to forsee the uncertain course of centuries, nor was he pos sessed of an omniscient mind, capable of solving the world's problems hun I dreds of years after his death. Con sequently, it is hardly fair for citi zens today to attempt to bolster their views by telling us what Washington | would do if he were alive today or by attempting to solve existing prob lems by hunting quotation from his addresses, delivered in the Eighteenth Century. We much prefer to look upon the first President of this republic as a man who faced great lnSBntofclMlUpy f?. His record sod his services are im pressive without imputing imaginary and supernatural virtues, , AIRPLANE SPEED LIMITS The practical speed at future air* planes is limited, not oirty mechanical endurance of the plane itself, but also by Ike physical ei-: durance of the human beings wfio ride in the airplanes.. There mn be, in addition, ? ^na tural limit td the spited, of planes be low the stratosphere. Apparently, designers and builders of planes have overcome the diffi culties connected frith material' mid structural stresses and straina . In other words, airplanes today 'seem able to- perform feats that subject pi lots to more than human flesh iutf blood can stand. Recently, for ex am?!?, a pilot in a power five, lost consciousness on his way down, and the Army plane which mashed after, crossing the continent in Tees tBi&' eight hours may have been the vic tim of a personnel failure. ; .&-<? It is also reported that tests, made ait Langley Field, Virginia, a few ycfern ago show that before a plane reaafeto the speed of w& nrikfr im hour, the sir is compressed in front of the wings. .Then the engine must push or pull along not only the plane but a mass of air.

Consederiog the amazing orfani ra tion of Germany asuL Italy for war and the aggressive attitude of the distators to other nations, involve^ in the solution of what they consider vital national problems, it is appar ent thai peace in Europe depends upon: (1) A continuance of the Cham berlain policy of appeasement, imple mented. by substantial concessions on the part of Great Britain and France; or, (2) The rearmament program of the Democracies to. create a relative parity, of military, strength so that the totalitarian powers wijl not ven ture to. begin hositlitiea. The United States can do nothing whatever in regards to the first con dition, but in the sales of airplanes and munitions, it can do something definite to bring, about the. second situation. The recent purchase of air planes in this country by Great Britain and France illustrate the method "short of war" by which this country can express its faith in dem ocratic ideals and make effective its protest against the doctrine that ihight makes right American citizens should not .be fuddle themselves over a theoretical neutrality that, in effect, makes this country the ally of any nation pos sessing the moSt powerful military establishment. While the President, under our neutrality law, is required to embargo the rale of munitions to nations engaged' in a war, there is no law prohibiting the sale of air planes to nations not involved in a conflict. To refuse to sell Great Britain and France the airplanes that they can purchase for cash would be to assist the totalitarian powers. Such a "neutrality" would not only be a farce, but it would be contrary to the wishes of the American people. Cotton Belt Uses Wheat By-Products Wheat and cottonseed rank first and second, respectively, in value and: importance as sources of by-products used in livestock feeding in the Unit ed States, reports Earl H. Hostetler, professor of animal husbandry at State College. They go hand-in-hand: in economical livestock feeding, he said, because cottonseed mhal is rich in the protein that is needed to bal ance wheat by-products, such -as wheat bran end middlings. While wheat is not generally thought of as a Southern crop, yet in 1937 nearly six million bushels were produced in North Carolina, and this, with more than 300,00O tons of cot tonseed produced in the State the same year, represents a considerable tonnage of available livestock feed from by-products of the two crops. Wheat bran is palatable, bulky, midly laxative and rich in phospho rus, which makes it comparable to oats in feeding value. It is one of the most popular dairy feeds, and is Widely used for workstock, breeding ewes, growing lambs, and for cowb at farrowing time. Wheat bran gives best results when fed with cotton seed meal and farm grains in bal anced rations,, with bran comprising not more than one-fourth tp one third of the ration. Wheat mirfdliwgw are known by a variety of other names, such as grey, brown, or red shorts, shipstuff, and chops. It is. essentially palatable, low in fiber and high in digestable nutrients and is .a valuable supple mentary feed, for livestock, particu larly for young animals. i FBef. Hostotier pointed out that Wfettt itself is, of course, an excel lent livestock feed but its value as a human food* makes it.-too expensive to nse forthipfeuspoae. Wheat pas tures afro are nsed to some extent for winter grazing, but Its chief use ?fcsrya- livestock feed' is in its by ?
