The new enterprise. (Madison, Fla.) 1901-1908, 1907-01-10

Whoever smites the wrong, the right up
holding,
In spite Of errors clamoring cries;
Whoe'er uproots the false, the truth un.
folding,
Along the path where ignorance lies,
Whoe'er, opposing vice, is nobly giving
To virtues cause his best endeavor,
However lowly life he lives, is living
A life to be forgotten never.
Whoever lifts his hand against oppression,
Where'er the blighting curse may fall,
Whoever makes his life a sweet expression
OF love OF equal rights for all,
slowing,
Assists the tyrants claims to sever,
Though humble deeds he does, some seed
is sowing
Whose fruits shall gladden. hearts for.
ever.
The new enterprise. (Madison, Fla.) 1901-1908, 1907-01-10
FOREVER.

Whoe'er to an afflicted brother, needing,
Extends the hand OF charity,
Whoe'er binds up heart that's broken,
bleeding,
With bonds of love and sympathy,
Whoe'er, by kindly word or act bestowiing,
Binds human hearts more close together,
His deeds, through years in beauty grow
ing
Shall i've in memory forever.
Whoe'er, from sin and shame and degra-
dalton,
Assists an erring one - rise;
Whoe'er, with life itself upholds the ma
ton,
When freedom needs the sacrifce;
Whoe'er lives not for selfish ends and
glory,
The law OF love forgetting never
His name, though written not in song or
story,
Will live in human hearts forever.

State Chemist Holds Until January I,
Coincident with the announcement
that an extension of the time for the
pure food law to become operative
October 1st instead of August LIST,
comes the statement that State Chem
lst McCapdless will remain in cfice
until the first of January, 1908. DR..
McCandless, it is recalled, resigned in
June. his resignation to take effect
August 1st Inasmuch as he is vlr-
,ually the father Of the pure focd law
in Georgia, he was urged by Commits
3loner Hudson to remain until that
law becomes thoroughly operative.
When the pure food law was to go
into effect on the first day Of August,
numerous letters were received from
country merchants, stating that they
were overstQcked with doubtful feeds
and asked for an extension in time for
the pure food law to become operative.
This extension has been granted by
Commissioner Hudson.
DR.. McCandless in his talk before
the Cotton Seed Cr4shers' Associa-
zion of Georgia at Lithia Springs last
year, declared cotton seed oil to be
one of the best vegetable oils on the
market and has done as much, if
not more, toward the furtherance Of
This great southern product than any
thing else. The pure food law will
see to it that every oil shall stand on
its own merits, and after this law be-
comes operative cotton seed oil will
be sold as such and not under the
brand of olive oil.
