been suspended for three months, that is until
April 1st, in order to give all publishers time in
which to notify their subscribers and arrange their
lists accordingly.
We shall have to comply with the law, every
paper in the United States will have to do that
And the readers of the Enterprise will have to
prepare for the change in policy. For indeed it is
great change from our old plan of letting sub
scribtons take care of themselves.
We will send statements to every subscriber
and we want reponse from every statement
Subscribers have the choice of paying up and con-
tnuing the paper or paying up and stopping the
paper. In any case what is due on subscription
must be paid and where they not paid on the
first of April we will put the claims in the hands
of lawyer to collect or, in the hands ola justice
of peace to sue tt

We have thought we would publish most of
the nice things our exchanges say about our candi-
dacy for Prison Commissioner in the Enterprise.
That it would be legitimate way of aiding the
candidacy, but right at this time it would take too
much space to publish the generous notices of the
papers of all parts Of Georgia, and the regular sub
scribers who pay their money for the paper are
entitled to relief. We will occasionally give them
one to remind them that we are still running.
For instance The Jackson Argus says:
''Col. Jesse Mercer, of the Fitzgerald Enter
prize has announced as candidate for Prison
Commission to succeed Commissioner Tom
Eason, who will not be in the race again.
His formal announcement is so like the man,
strong, clear and to the point. His record is
one that will bear inspection He has stood
for clean politics and has fought fearleSsly for
the right in the editorial columns of his paper.
He has served two years in the State Senate
and made good record The people of the
State will surely make no mistake in support
ing him for the Office

eff you arc rich or poor, the best thing you
can do for your boy is to put him to work. 1t
might make our streets more lonely if all men
would adopt the rule, ''get busy" but it
would be far better for the boy. OF course
send him to school but during hours not in the
school find something for the boy to do, even if
its to saw wood Learn the boy to get in the
habit of work. He will need it when parent
is old or dead. If he does not learn to work
he will be sure to do worse. The world has
no respect for the der Mothers too ought
to learn their girls to work. Some folks may
say ''oh, she is so pretty" as your daughter
walks the streets so stylishly dressed. But
that's only talk. We all admire pretty girls,
but when good people como to pass upon the
merits of young women, they never have any
thing much for the girl whose only occupation
is to ''look ptetty, who knows nothing of
work BE she rich poor, pretty or not we
honor that girl who has something else to do
besides walk the streets.-Stillmore Leader"
