SANTA CLAUS LETTERS
“What will Santa Claus bring me" is now uppermost in the minds
of hundreds of little tots, and we are going to give them the influence of
the Enterprise in asking Old Santa to bring them just what they would
like best, appreciate most.
We invite the little boys and girls of the city and county to use
these columns to communicate with Santa Claus on the subject. He is
a constant and careful reader of the Enterprise and a.letter to him thru
these columns will “hit the spot.”
: Make your letters very brief for this is Santa Claus’ busy season.
Address Santa Claus Editor Epterprise. :

Ginners’ Report Bullish.
Ten million one hunderd and
thirty nine thousand bales ginned
to November first, is the Govern
ment report to-day.
The report is considered bullish
as it was generally estimated that
it would be three hundred and sixty
thousand bales more, or about ten
and a half million bales. :
The Government estimate on the
yera’s crop will be out tomorrow
and it is believed now that it will
be inside of eleven million bales.
With such a report and estimate
the price ought to go to twenty
cents, but the cotton market is one
thing that doesn’t do just as we ex
pect it; the speculators may be able
to depress the markét in spite of the
reports.
NOTICE
All persons desirous of obtaining
Government Headstones for deceas
’ed Soldiers, please furnish me at
once, imformation as follows.
I Name of soldier, first namein full,
his rank, company, regiment, and
| state from which he enlisted also
'date of soldiers death. I will make
!a requisition on the Quartermaster
lGeneral U. S. A promptly on Jan
aary, Ist 1911..
