"Oh girls" said Elsie Marsden 10 her classmates,
Tomorrow is Dottie's birthday, April Il Let us

Esie brought the box. and the girls filed 1t with
stones and paper. But there was one girl. Lillian
Clifford who did not like the idea of giving box
OF stones and papers as birthday greeting TO- little
r ottte, whose widowed mother earned her living by
sewing So Lillian went home and told her mother
about t. Together they got up heap OF treasures
for Dottie and when the girls were all out playing
Lillian stole into the schoolroom and replaced the
rocks and paper with her pretty present
The next morning May Edwards. who had been
chosen as spokesman for the class took the box
and followed by the others. sought Dottie.

wifi by offering you little token your birth

All the girls vainly tried to keep from laughing as
Dotte opened the box But instead of the disgusted
expression they had expected to see on her face
they saw a smile OF pleasure. How astonished they
were when she drew out books, dolls. candies and
toysl How embarrassed they were when she
thanked them so warmly!
Who changed the gifts Is still unknown; but the

Editor JONES' of the Fitzgerald
Daily People, seems perfectly able to
hold his own with Editor Mercer, thee
h welder of that terrible lambaster.''-
Waycross Evening Herald.
Who is Editor Jones?
Why, Artie Jones, manager of the People,
can not write five line local.
In strict sense of the word, his paper has
mo editor. Clarence Lee, one of the cleverest
and cleanest writer's that ever did work on
Fitzgerald paper, does editorial work for the
People, but he is not willing to be known as its
Eeditor He shuns the conta minatiou of assocl.
alton with the unspeakable contributors.
The manager of the People is apparently
shopeless1y under the influence of the element
the Enterprise has made war on these years.
He accepts for his paper whatever is of
fered by the gutter-snipes, who are always ready
to strike the Enterprise from the ambush
afforded by his little paper, Cor which he
"dictates'' which moral degenerate has the next
turn at the bat, that's all)-A peculiar and mod
sern method of "holding his own" 1t is like
encounterng bunch of polecats in the dark,
but the Enterprise owes it as duty to the COM
munity, and we have not thought of slackening
.degenerates so long. Results have been too
Satisfactory. too immeasurably important to
Fitzgerald. We shall continue to poke up the

the least bit disagreeab BILE.

ut" the only opportunity to attract respectable
notice.
AS soon as we feel that we can spare the
time from important business that keeps us
very busy and when we think our readers can
stand the noise of the lambaster without open
revolt, we shall give it special notce-such
notice as may be permissible with due repect
for sex.
Yes, Editor Jones is holding his own"
Who else on earth would hold it for him?
We are not yet willing to believe he is who'll
Nv bad, and we would love to save him from the
evil influences that use him to assail what they
consider their arch enemy. After all, it may be
an unique way Of expressing his appreciation OF
the assistance we have rendered in launching
and m aintaining his little paper.

EDITOR MERCER LIKES MOULTRIE.
From the Moultrie observer.

From the Moultrie Observer
Editor J. E. Mercer, of the Fitzgerald Ent-
efArise, one Of the striking figures in Georgia
Journalism was in Moultrie last night. He blew
in from Atlanta with the cold wave. Attempt
to return to Fitzgerald via Albany he missed
connection aud came by Moultrle TO Kill time.
\ II am surprised at the size of Moultrle," said
he "There is much more of it than expected to
fnd.' He was assured that the town IS now
inha bited by no less than four thousand souls,
and he said There is no reason why you
should not have ten thousand in very few
wears. You have fine country surrounding you,
and the health conditions know to be good.
understand you have three banks aud that all
have large deposits. This indicates prosperity
and if YOU will continue to turn this wealth into
manufacturing as you have begun to do, you
will soon have city with street cars, parks and
paved streets"
Editor Mercer then spoke Of Fitzgerald and
its growth in the past few years, modesly re-
FRAMING from mentioning the part he has played
IN the DEVELOPMENT of the city. Five years ago
ID private bank of ten thousand dollars was dong
the business of the colony city. Parties organ
|szed new bank with paid in capital OF htteen
thousand dollars and the man owing the private
hank became disheartened and sold out his
bank to the new bank.
Now Fitzgerald has four strong banks all
IRVING heavy deposits and capitalized at near
III two hundred thousand dollars

Without railroads we would have no Fitz-
gerald. With the railroads we have a splendid
little city. With more railroads we are sure to
grow in strength and prosperity. This is
railroad age; Fitzgerald needs several There
is one within her grasp that can be reached
without great expense; a road that can il
afford to miss; one that means great deal in
the matter of rates
We refer to Hon. J. A. ]. Henderson, road,
which has recently been reorganized and is on a
selid, prosperous footing, with grsatly increased
milage.
The Enterprise wants to see this another
tree planting winter in Fitzgerald Owing to
the fact that clearing away thaA pines left the
town site almost bare of shade trees, the plant
ing of shades is most important.

Funeral OF R. D. Mcconnem.

SUPERIOR, Neb., Dec. 6.-(Special 1.-The
body of Lieutenant r. B. Mcconnell was laid
in its final resting place in Evergreen ceme-
terry today with suitable ceremony. The
sermon by Rev. w. G. Brown was eloquent,
spiritual and helpful. Devotional exercises
were performed by Revs Brooks and Pol
lock The assembly was in the United
Presbyterian church, and was very large.
The city authorities, by general request
through the mayor, asked for the closing
of business and the schools during the
service, which request was gladly re-
spected. Mayor Adams gave in a short talk
the history of Lieutenant Mcconnell, with
special reference to his military career.
Lieutenant Mcconnell was born in 1877 in
Iowa. His parents, Mr.. and Mrs. benjamin
]. Mcconnell came to this county early in
the sons life and he received his education
here. He was a student of the State uni
versity when the Spanish-American war
broke out.
He served in Company H, First Nebraska
regiment in the Philippines, afterwards he
served in the Thirty-ninth and Twenty
fourth regiments. Some time afterward he
was promoted to first lieutenant in the
regular army and assigned TO duty with
the Ninth United States infantry, going
with that regiment TO Manila, where he
was on duty when he died of general peri
tonitis September u, 1906. His entire ser.
vice embraced about seven years.
He leaves a young wife and is survived by
his father and mother and one sister, Mrs
W. G. Allison, who have the heartfelt
sympathy OF this entire community in theil
bereavement.
