ENTERPRISE WILL TELL.

We wish To say that We advocate the
O.V., the Norfolk, the Cumberland
Gap, the Columbus, or any other rail
road that proposes, orintimates, orhints
that it will come into, or through, on 10y
Hopkinsville -L South Kentuckian.
1t is such enterprise rs this that Is
making Hopkiusyille known in the
commercial and business circles. 1t
is such enterprise as this that builds
cities and railroads. 1t is such en-
terprise as this that brings success in
its wake and makes II community
prosperous. Hopkinsville knows the
value of railroad and is ready to
aid in the construction Of any other
that may come. Hartford can have Il
railroad but not as free gift. People
to succeed in this day and time must
be up and doing. Success comes not
to the idler but to the man of indus
try and energy. The same is true
of communities and towns. II they
would be prosperous they must be
industrious. Railroads are being
built in various places but almost
everywhere they ct aid from the
people, We can afford to give aid
to road under the proper conditions,
for in so doing we thereby benefit
ourselves.

THE advertising columns of Il news
paper are of as much value to the
people AS any other part ofthe paper.
In them may be found the price list
of many things the person wants to
buy and frequently the exact cost Of
same. They act as buyers guide
and the purchaser can find in them
where and at what price certain arti-
cles can be had. Some people will
not read advertisements and vii even
dislike paper containing them and
at the same time will pay more than
an article is worth because he did not
keep posted. This is certainly poor
economy and the man who practices
it does not evidently study his own
interest.

ted the first copies coming from the
hands Of the binders among the heads Of
departments at the Capitol. the officials,
city and county, throughout the state,
the members o. the General Assembly OF

The official designation OF the volume
is the "CODE or VIRGINIA Though
containing n few more pages than the
Codes Of 1919 and 1860 It is smaller
book, which nay be accounted for by
the fact that the paper used in the pres
ent volume is much finer in texture than
in former editions. IT contains eleven
hundred and seventy pages, which
is about one third less than the Code Of
1873. which latter, however, was n com
pilation of statutes instead Of revision.
The printing was done by Mr.. James
f. Goode, and tho binding by several
firms
The Code IS well indexed, copiously
annotated, and will doubtless prove Of
great convenience to the public.
