Thfe new naval appropriation bill recently passed by the United States senate carries an appropria tion of $494,000, 000. You can get some faint idea of how much that is when you know that Henry Ford has manufactured only about 5,000,000 flivers- If you can't get some idea of the enormity of the appropriation bv the flivver comparison, you might get a bet ter idea when we tell you that it is about five times as many dollars as there are men, women and child ren in the United .States Some appropriation, eh? Well, we should say so. Editor Gates has leased the Etowah Enterprise to Mr. Arthur M. Depew, and Mr. Ik-pew in his Salutatory, says among other filings, ' 'We tc!n?ve that it takes a good paper to sfpresent as good a town as Etowah Consequently we are going to endeavor to make the paper better-" We have never had the pleasure of meeting Mr. 'Depew, 'and here j hopinc tliat he may meet with success, but he will have to get up before day if he heats brother Gates getting out a live weekly .paper.
