“WE TOLD YOU SO.”
“We told youeo’s” are usually accompanied -with the finger of scorn. But it
is with a feeling of feme, and, we lio&e, pardonable pride, tfiafc we copy today a
paragraph from the announcement published by the present management of the
Times-Enterprise in its first issue, Nov. 1, 1902:
, “A new stock of type will be placed in both the job and newspaper depart
ments. The paper will soon appear in a new dress, and as scton as business war
rants will be enlarged.” , •
Now, as the last of these promises is being brought to its fulfillment, We can
say, “we told you so,” and hope that you will echo the sentilnent with the con-
fessiou," “They did tell us.*’ - N .
The new management came into Thomasville almost strangers, and the re
caption that has been accorded us at every turn lias not'only gratified ns, but hi a
! upheld ns at times when periodical discouragements might have all but overcome

, The young woman was not only frank
but a philosopher. It is* to be hoped
that when she becomes a mother her
philosophy will Hot desert her, and that
she will stop lecturing her children the
moment she has -scored her point.
Shonld she do so* the chances are in
favor of her bringing up a family of
well-mannered offspring. -
The trouble with a great many'pec-
ple-is that they do not kn6w when to
stop talking;' they talk entirely too
much. Instead of going directly to the
point to be made they slosh around in a
sea of words of little or no bearing on
the subject, and then haying reached the
point, they spoil the effect of it by more
sloshing of the same sort. A -truth
stated directly and simply, in the fewest
words consistent with clearness, oarries
more weight than one diluted with dis
cursiveness to the extent that thoidea is
practically obliterated. *
Overmuch talking is a common evil.
It is to be found in the home, in society,
in the Court House, in legislative halls
and in the church. If people would
talk less about themselves, their neigh
bors and their associates there would te
fewer hard feelings. If legislators
would stop talking when they had made
their point there would be fewtr half-
bakedlaws. If preachers would step
talking at the right time,when they had
said enough to explain the text and its
application, and would refrain from
vain repetitions like the heathen in h:s
prayers, and from dilation* and dilu
tions, like the milkman *at the pun p,
congregations wonld be larger and the
people would be fuller of the word of
Clod. Less talking and more thinkirg
is what is needed.
