ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY.

Mr.. HI. Lambert, patentee of draft attachment
and an extension table, is looking for assistance to
put the manufactured articles on the market
The patented articles have merit, but Mr..
Lambert is not rich man, and he needs the finan-
cial backing to start the manufacture OF the two
useful and salable articles. There seems to be
plenty of capital but it is often difficult to get it
interested in new project of this kind, altho
after it is successfully launched it is easy to find
any number of people to wonder at their failure to
get in on good thing
The Enterprise wants to see as many of these
kind of Enterprises around Fitzgerald as it is pos
sible to secure. They go to make the difference in
a crowded prosperous city and quiet country
village.
Mr. A B. Small is charging his plant in the
western part of the city and will probably be able
to give Mr.. Lambert considerable assistance in the
manufacture of his extension table, but a factory
that can produce the malleable iron parts for
the draft attachment, will require more capita
than Mr.. Lambert has been able TO find.
A company could be easily formed here under
a contract with Mr.. Lambert, probably in con
nection with our splendid foundry and machine
shops that would prove to be profitable invest

The foreign insurance companies have quit the
state of Texas; all companies Incorporated in other
states have Withdrawn from the state account of
a recent act of the legislature requiring all com
panies doing business in the state to invest IS per
cent. of the policy reserves in Texas securities.
One of the greatest drains ON the south is the
money paid on insurance that takes wings to New
York Boston and other northern or foreign cities.
The people of Texas lose nothing by the arrange
ment
If the companies incorporated in other states
and foreign countries leave the field it will be
pied by home companies, not only with offices and
officers in the state but companies that believe in
Texas investment. The Texas plan suits us.

There is some fever at Ocilla This whole sec
ton of the state is healthy, and Ocla would be as
healthy any part of it but for local cause. The
local trouble at Ocilla is easy to nd but the home
people are not likely to point it out for the reason
that it effects enterprise that contributes largely
to the business life of that thriving little city.
A large saw mill located right in the city main
tains pond, in which logs are kept ready for the
saw. The water is not only stagnant, but the logs
sour, and large quantities of bark saw dust and
trash has rotted and soured about the large mill
plant which is idle.
That is the trouble with our neighbor, and we
hope they will speedily correct it, Ocilla is nat
urally as healthy as any place in Georgia, but no

Mr.. Lewelling, which mould mean
that he could not teach in Virginia
again. This, however, is not ab.
solutely true. The examiner has
told the local school authorities that
he stands ready TO back them In
the premises In so far as he may
be called upon to do so.
Friday afternoon Mr.. Lewwelllng
was informed that the action of
the board would probably terminate
In his ilismassal and that action
was carried out yesterday.
After Magistrate Deane.
Steps were quietly taken yester-
day TO investigate the position Of
Magistrate j. Albert Deslne, whose
communication was published in the
Daily Press. 1t is said that the
justice has placed himself In a
rather unenviable position by COM
irg out flat footedly against a meas.
ure that he may at anytime be
asked to pass upon as magistrate
Then, too, he has taken an oath
to uphold the law of the State and
any measures passed by the local
school board or health board is
upon the authority OF the legisla-
ture of Virginia. Judge Blackstone's
attention will be directed to the
communication and he Will be asked
to decide whether or not Justice of
the peace has the right to so strong
ly oppose an act upon which he
would naturally have to pass be-
twd'n the authorities and those
vaccination.
According to several attorneys
Magistrate Deane did not look up
the law very we'll as quoted yes
terday. The law gives the board
of health absolute authority and
an act passed at the last session
of the Legislature makes 1t manda.
tory in the schools.

II Came to Question of the Board
Running the Schools or Allowing

Hoard-Now They are After Jus.
tIco y. Albert peane.

sg The Chesapeake School Doar
yesterday afternoon unanimousl,
dismissed Irwin Lewelllng from the
principalship of the Fox Hill graded
schools on the ground of insurbordi
nation.
The main cause of the summary
action OF the board was due to
I the set OF resolutions prepared by
Mr. Lewelling. censuring the Illiza,
Z beth City county board OF health
and the school board for enforcing
the vaccination law in the schools.
Mr.. Lewelling told the board few
days ago that he would never en-.
force vaccination in school taught
by him and therefore the board
had nothing else to do hut either
Nnuckle to the principal or assert
itself by Diminishing him. The mem
sbers OF the board regretted the
tion personally, but officially they
met the Issue squarely and there
fore put themselves on record rs
determining, to run the schools.
MIR. Lewelling was not present Mt
the meeting OF the hoard, which
was held In the office OF the County
Z superintendent John NJ. Willis. at
20 o'clock yesterday afternoon
{ MeBsrs. George A. Schmelz and Mar
/, shall A. Booker were the other
members in attendance. 1t is salu
THAT the decision Of the board has
sthe approval of Mr.. j. s. Wyatt the
4 member of the board from Fox
Hill, who is OF the opinion that
G Mr.. Lewelling has made n grievous
mistake in his position.
Z After voting to dismiss the prin-
cipal without further notice the
board also came to the conclusion
to close tke principals room in the
ayox pal graded school until
haQtheF teacher can be secured.
The board is already in communica-
ton with several prospective teach.
sers and 1t ia likely that within the
next ten days the school will be
running along smoothly again. The
second and third grades will contin-
4ue.
The board also adopted reso-
Tuition commenting the action or
the board OF health and plcdgIng
the health board It's most ardent
support in any measure that is for
the interest of the health of the
community and especially as re-
lating to tie precautionary steps IN
jlthe schools of the country.
Much interest is now being Eel,
sin the action OF the people of Fox
\ Hill$as to whether or not they Will
submit to the vaccination OF the
ichildfen or else take them from

lined later, Hs@

Institute, through its attorneys,
Messrs. Jones e Woodward. began
suit against Mr.. Benjamin NJ. Johnson
and Mrs. Hester A. Johnson for the
purpose of compelling them to deliver
deed to the school for their proper
ty on Hampton creek-'Hob Core"
According to the papers filed in the
suits the Normal school contends that
1t purchased the property from Mr..
and Mrs. Johnson for $4,000 and
that in order to bind the bargain the
cash sum of $25 was paid to the
owners of the land Since that time
the Normal school alleges that Mr..

to dispose of their property and have
absolutely refused to give deed to
the school. The property is very de-
