Looks Suspicious To Us
We can't understand why newspaper men were not
admitted to the Tyre C. Taylor 10-year programmeeting, recently held in Raleigh. I'e.rha|>s the news-
paper men would not have known enough to talk, hut
they certainly could have carried the news to themillions of Carolinians, and perhaps have done muchgood in that way.
This kind of secrecy looks too much like machine-making politics. We would certainly like to knowwho the 45 or SO hand-picked Taylor friends favorfor governor. -
Hearts and Pocketbooks
Nothing seems to make the heart of man grow
so much as a diminishing pocketbook. Even in thisperiod of what we foolishly call hard times, peopleare giving more to their fellows, friends?and ene-
mies, too ?than ever before.It seems that hearts and |K»cketbooks are negatives.
When we have big pocketbooks, we have little heartsand when we have big hearts, we have little pocket -
i books. W have had a real opportunity to observe
j values during the present decade. We have had the
; big pocket books; but, behold, what have we to show
' for them? Very little, except the schools, roads, and? i
| a few such things. The major portion has gone for
wild living apd gorgeous extravagance, and we are
j no better?but worse?because of it.
A big heart is of far more value than many pocket-books. It lasts longer and lifts us higher.
Returning to Savagerymm %
Is the League of Nations and all treaties to be ut-
terly ignored by Japan in her greed for grab? If so,| then our civilization is decaying, and we will have to
\u25a0 acU.p'. the principles of tava^erwhich grants the' strong the undisputed privilege to pillage, plunder, and
! kill the weak. This seems to be the only purpose of
1 Japan in order to gain new territory, perhaps to en-
S rich herself for later conquest of some other country.Now is the time to teach Japan the difference be-
tween honesty and greed.
Our Fatherless Ones
Watauga Democrat.
The North Carolina Orphans Association this week
its annual appeal for donations to the 27 homes
in the. StaiefnaTare today caring for nearly 4,000
motherless and fatherless children. The association s
suggestion is that each man and women contribute
the income of one day's labor to these little ones,who have been deprived of parental devotion and
care and thrust by the hand of fate upon the merciesof the public. The need has never before been so
urgent, and despite depression, the good people of
Watauga are expected to dig deep into their pocketsand produce a substantial sum for the care of these
unfortunate ones. The complexities of the present
economic situation have nothing to do with the factthat little mouths must be fed and little bodies
clothed. These children are our children, and each
of them deserves the protection of every man's armand the affection of every woman's heart. Donationsmay be made to the orphanage of your choice, and
on or near Thanksgiving Day it is hoped that every
citizen of the county will open his or her heart to the
call and do their part toward bringing happiness to
the helpless. In the words of the poet Masefield:
"He who gives a child a treat,Makes joy-bells ring in Heaven's Street.
And he who gives a child a home
Ifuilds palaces in Kingdom Come."
I PEANUTS!"5c per pound
For a limited time, we are willing to exchange our paper
with the people of this county for one of their principal crops?
Peanuts?at what we believe to be a living price for them, 5 cents
per pound. We believe that peanuts are too low and that they
willbe higher in price if the farmers willhold them off the mar-
ket for a time. To back our belief, we make this offer to exchange
our paper for your peanuts in payment of your subscription on
a basis of 5 cents per pound for the peanuts.

The regular subscription price of the Enterprise is $1.50per year; a three-year subscription would be $4.50. An average
bag of peanuts at 5 cents per pound would bring you approxi-
matly this sum. So, for one bag of peanuts we willallow a three-
I year subscription. No smaller quantity than one bag will be ac-

HUNTERS ASKEDTO LEND AID TOPREVENT FIRES
?\u2666 ?
Main Season Opens Friday;Cooperation Urged by
County Warden ,1
Starting their annual search forquail, wild turkey, and rabbits tomor-
row, Martin County hunters are urgedto cooperate with property owners in
keeping the woods and fields free offire in this county. The unusuallydry conditions surrounding the fieldsand woods just at this time gives thewarning more weight.
In calling the attention of huntersto the many possible ways woodsfires are started and the methods ofprevention, County Game "Warden J.W. Hines stated this week that care-lessness on the part of the hunters isdecidedly to their own disadvantage,for much game js either destroyed ordriven out of its native habitat.
With the exception of a few lim-ited areas, Martin County has escap-ed fire damage so far this year, andevery one is cautioned against pos-sible danger and damage.
The following rule for preventing
fire in the woods were submitted byWarden Hines, and they are due everyconsideration.
"Be sure your match is out and jbreak it in two before you throw it'away.
"Be sure that pipe ashes and cigarand cigarette stubs are dead l>eforethrowing them away. Never throwthem into brush, leaves, or needles.
'ln making camp' and before build-ing a fire, scrape away all inflammablematerial from a spot five feet in diam-eter, 1 eep your fire small and neverbuild it against or near brush.
"Never break camp until your fireis out ?dead out.
"Never burn slash or brush inwindy weather, or while there is theslightc .t danger that the fire willspread."
P. S. Distillers will do well to heedthe warnings, also.
