GREENFIELD ENTER
TAINS BIG CROWD.

Greenfield was thronged with citi-
zens from all portions of the county
on last Monday who came to usher in
the opening of the United War Work
campaign, hear Sturgeon Mayo and
see the aeroplane. There was no
disappointment. The program was
carried out in full, with Hon. Seldom
Maiden as master of ceremonies and
Col. Roger BrasfieId, general scout.
The plane came in from Park Field
about l o'clock, performing num-
Der of beautiful feats in the air for
the amusement Of the vast throng.
Judge Jones was the speaker of the
day. The good judge, who is rapid
ly assuming the old-time Joe Jones
delivered an address that
stirred the heart of every hearer, and
at tn conclusion he called upon Spur
geon Mayo. The young man, who is
becoming quite stump speaker,
and who, some day, may be after
FINS CARROTS scalp, responded in a
happy vein, giving his experiences in

BIG, FINAL DEMONSTRATION TUESDAY NIGHT
Nashville, Tenn,
Nov. II, 1918.

Ever since the false news reached
Dresden on Thursday of last week
that peace had been declared, there
has been, up to Tuesday night, al
most a continuous demonstration in
the old town, and if the bells and
whistles and dish-pans are not all
worn out, and the barrels of pistols
and shot-guns burned out, and all
the liquor in the land drunk, then
these things are impossible!
Tuesday night witnessed the big
demonstration. Powder was got from
a neighboring city on Tuesday, the
anvils were placed, the Dukedom
band was procured, speakers were
brought forth, and so on and so on
and for two and halfhours the large
crowd made merry on the public
square. The conduct of the large
crowd was good, except that a num-
Der imbibed too freely, and great
occasion Of rejoicing was witnessed.
The like was never before witness
ed here, and never will be again

PEACE DEMONSTRATION
CONTINUES MANY DAYS
|. D PHILLIPS IS
BURIED AT SEA.

Mr.. Oscar Phillips, residing south
west of Dresden, received message
on Tuesday, written to his mother,
notifying the family of the death Of
J. D. Phillips, who died at sea.
The letter was written by thearmy
chaplain. 1t expressed sympathy for
the family and stated that the young
man died after an illness of influ-
enza and pneumonia, and that the
body was buried at sea. From this
it is presumed the transport was
many days out and that it was i'm
possible to return the body to the
states for interment.
J. D. Phillips was a model young
man, He was upright in all his deal
ings and held in the highest esteem.
He left sometime during the sum-
mer, going into training at Hatties-
burg, Miss, from which point he
for overseas service. His
death is an occasion Of much sorrow,
and to the bereaved family the sym
pathy of many friends is extended.

LEAVE TUESDAY
FOR CONFERENCE

Sunday night is Brother Smiths
last appointment here for the con-
ference year. He leaves Tuesday for
conference, which will be held at
Jackson, and will not return, proba-
bly, until the middle of the following
week.
The years work here under Rev.
Smiths passionate speaks for itself,
but it is not aimss to say that during
this time the church has been wonder
fully strengthened in all its branch
es. Jealous, energetic, social and
deeply and profoundly piOus, Bro.
Smith has gone about his work in a
way that has brought results, and this
people would be sorely disappointed
should he not be returned.

FIRST AEROPLANE
MAIL TO DRESDEN

The first mail to reach Dresden
by aeroplane came in Monday from
Memphis, being rolls of United War
Work advertising matter delivered to
Joe 1. Holbrook, county publicity
man, by the aeroplane from Park
Field.
The matter was handsomely done
up in pasteboard tube, tied with
red, white and blue ribbon, bearing
tag addressed, ~. L. Holbrook,
Dresden, Tenn" This came from
the headquarters in Memphis, and
several bundles were dropped here.
Thus the editor of this paper enjoys
tn distinction of receiving the first
aeroplane bundle delivered to Ores
den.
When the plane came the town was
full of folks celebrating the peace
news. School had turned out, and
the children marched into the square
singing that grand old song, "The
Star Spangled Banner" A halt was
made at the flag pole, which was cir
cled, the happy children continuing
their songs.
At night a great crowd assembled
on the square, amusing themselves
and others by the firing of all kinds
of weapons. Fathers and mothers,
wives and sweethearts, were giving
vent to their emotions of happiness
over the termination of the bloodiest
conflict the world has ever known.
1t was, indeed a time for rejoicing. |

FOURTH DEATH IN
FAMILY IN WEEK

The death of Lee Byars, 10 years
of age, at the home of his grand
mother, Mrs. Puss Byars, at Palmers-
vile, marks the fourth death re-
ported in that family in one week.
Lee Byars died last Sunday of
pneumonia, following influenza. He
was laid to rest Monday at Palmers-
vile, with services by Elder Jess
Griffith. Lee was a most exemplary
young man, sober, industrious, hon
orable and upright.
About one week ago his aunt, Mrs.
Ode Byars was laid to rest and on
the day following another aunt, Mrs.
Ben Byars, was buried. During this
period news came from the war de-
partment that Vinson Byars, an un-
Gle of Lee, had died in France on
Oct. 10. These grief-stricken, sor-
rowing, good people have the SYM
pathy of many friends in their sore

WILSON'S TRUCE TERMS BRING PEACE TO WORLD
MANY ARE The HEARTS that ARE SINGING GODS THANKFUL FOR PEACE
RETURNS
STILL INCOMPLETE

The Enterprise planned to give
the official table of the election held
on Tuesday, Nov. 5, in today's issue,
but there are several districts yet
missing, and to give only part would
be of little interest. Anyhow, there
was so little interest manifested in
the late election, and there is so
much good news concerning the war
situation to publish, that we do not
think the readers care much for the
election returns.
Up to Wednesday at noon several
of the districts had failed to report,
and for this reason the election COM
have not held a meeting to
canvass the returns.
