Call it quarreling or fussing if
you want to, but the Enterprise is
going to keep on insisting that
there be some sanitary disposition
of sewer emptyings until there is
not an filthy puddle of water in
the public streets of the town.
There never has been any typhoid
here to amount to anything, but
if there is no provision for taking
off this sewer waste we may ex-
pect an epidemic Of fever here this
year. Emptying sewers in the
bitches and creeks running through
and around the town ought to be
prohibited, too.

We sometimes think the courts
having jurisdiction ought to wage
a relentless crusade against the
periurer. Witnesses go before in
quisitorial bodies, swear to GER
tain facts, but often when the case
comes on for trial those very wit
nesses give entirely different evil
dence. In one case or the other
perjury has been committed, and
if all the courts would wage war
against this growing practice,
sending a few periurers to jail
each term of court, there would
soon be less of it and men upon
the witness stand would belch
forth the truth.

CARPING CRITICISM.

Every once in a while some
<.iTend tells US of various parties
criticising the Enterprise about
first one thing and then another.
We don't care rip about your
criticisms, but for your own sake
you ought to quit it.
The easiest thing on earth is to
criticise, and newspapers come in
for a double share of it, but how
many of you who fly to the post
office as soon as the papers are
put in the office, many borrowing
a paper paid for by another,
standing upon the streets CRITICS.
ing the paper and the editor,
could make an Improvement on
the very things you carp over?
1t has become a habit with some
to take the paper, look over it,
not for good, but to find fault.
Suppose we should adopt your
plan, coming out every week with
a column of criticisms of people
of Dresden? What would you
think of the Enterprise? Yet
that is what you do every week.
Suppose the Enterprise should
say Judge Jones came down town
the other day with egg on his
chin? Or that Judge Maiden
used a soiled 'kerchief in court
the other day? both Of them
did, Or that John Brasfeld
couldn't spit off his shirt front?
Or that Talbert Lewis was wear
ing tooth-pick shoes? Or that
Geo. Boyd talks too loud on the
streets? Or that Lee Brasfeld
didn't run the postofice to suit
every individual in town? Or that
Brother Jones didn't preach to
suit everybody in this town? Or
that somebody's hat obscured our
view at meeting Sunday? And
so on.
Just about as much sense to
that as to your criticisms of the
Enterprise.
Stop it. Not that we care, but
for your own sake. You would
appear much more broadminded
by saying something good Of the
paper. At least, when the paper
has something complimentary to
say of you, tell the editor you
appreciate it, even if you don't
he will appreciate being told so.
It is seldom that person pos
sesses the courtesy to thank an
editor.

THE Misunderstood BOY.

THE misunderstood BOY.
In her address before tht
Mothers Congress held in Nash
vile last week Mrs. Elizabeth
Harrison called attention to the
misunderstood boy, says the Com
mercial Appeal.
Youth changes its inclinations
through heat OF blood. The boy
whoxis on the verge of puberty
mustIbe handled gently. He is
fractions. It is his formative
stage. He is approaching the
real functions Of life. He is quick
to be impressed, and it is the time
when he can be easily directed
towardisthe right or toward the
wrong. A kindly expression OF
patience may make a good man
of him; a show of impatient
neglect..may send him to the bad.
Family pride, through which
boy is.forced to accept a wrong
vocation, the idea that money is
the object Of work, and the
Indifference of parents in helping
their sons select proper vocation
are the three great obstacles to
the success of young Americans
today.
Mrs. Harrison is president of
the national kindergarten college
of Chicago, and is eminently
qualified to express a sensible
opinion on the subject.
If the boy is loose in his
principles and habits, if he lives
without plan or object, spending
his time in idleness and pleasure,
there isEmore hope for fool than
there is for him.
Every period of life has its
peculiar temptations and dan
gers, but youth is the time when
most Of, US are likely to be en-
shared. Youth is the spring Of
disposition and habit. 1t is dur
ing this season, more than any
other that the character assumes
its permanent shape and the young
will take their course for time and
for eternity.
Parents should be patient at this
transitional period in the lives Of
their young. More than one
misunderstood boy has had his
career ruined because OF parental
misunderstanding.
Indifference in homes is charged
by Mrs. Harrison to be the re-
sponsible cause for the increase of
youthful crime. Character build.
ing should be made a study.
Parents who expect great things
of their youngsters should make
character building particular
study, so that they may adaptly
teach the growing youth of either
sex the magnificent mission in
life that lies before them, so that
they may leave home helpful and
hopeful young men and women
to participate in the
battle of life.
