Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1911-12-30
In Defense Of Celders

Friends and people of Fitzgerald,
Lend me an ear" | am not here
to condemn Gelders, but to defend
him. 1t was not Gelders' fault that
he made miSstatementS regarding
the recent fire at the little moving
picture show, for Gelders is an
honorable man," and would speak
and write the truth if he knew how,
but he does not, and, therefore, is
rather to be pitied than blamed and
|, his old enemy, am here to defend
him. The Bible says, A man that
is born a liar. the truth is not in
him. And wherefore can man be
held to account for that he has not. ="
| might, in a spirit of contempt for
the smallness of the act, cite you to
the fact that Gelders' article, which
was intended to injure defenseless
woman, was cowardly since he
knew that muscle and Drawn could
not play any part in calling him to
account, and he was therefore safe
from bodily harm, but do not want
to give the impression that Gelders
is coward, for Gelders is not only
an honorable man." but a brave
MANI, and Am here not to con-
denim, but to defend him" 1t takes
brave man to face public censure
and the condemnation of all up
right and honorable people, to stab
a woman because he feels that she
has no way ofscoming back at him.
and | his only enemy, am here to
defend him and prove that he is a
brave man. | might cite you to
the fact that inconsistency is not
the least of Gelders' many faults,
but | am here to defend and there
fore would rather call your atten-
ton to virtues, and especially to his
wonderful nerve force, for Gelders is
not only honorable and brave. but
a man of nerve. Car you imagine
the nerve it takes for a man to
build a crystal palace as colossal
as that in which Gelders dwells,
and then recklessly cast stones at
the nearby tents of his neighbors?
Think of the magnificent nerve of a
man who could write a reform ar
ticIe like that which appeared in
the Leader, after having tried to run
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1911-12-30
A Card Of Explanation

In justice to myself, feel called
upon to correct the misstatements
made in the Fitzgerald Leader re-
earding the recent fire at the Mo
ito Theatre. Mr.. Gelders, the au-
thor of these articles, which were
written with malicious intent to
injure, was never in my place as |
know of and his statement that the
operating room was not lined with
non-infiamable material was based
entirely on supposition, and was not
a true statement. The statement
that there was no exit except thru
the front was of course very pal
pable misstatement, as every three
year old child in Fitzgerald with
average brain or thinking capacity
is cognizant of the fact that every
store building must have rear en-
trance and exit, and the Motto is
not an exception, as there is not
only double door at the back, but
two large windows from which a
panic stricken audience could man
age to jump almost as easily
as from tn e second story
windows of Gelders' opera house
which was run so long after it was
condemned, as being unsafe. Be-
sides the fact that there is an exit
in the rear, extra steps were placed
handy so as to be called into in
slant service if necessary. After
MIR. Gelders' article came out in the
Leader Icalled on him, and, with
out any comment on the inconsls-
tence of his article. courteously re-
uuested that he correct the state
ment only so far as it was incorrect.
This, of course, he refused to do, and
so | am forced to come before the
.puplic in this card, and to ask that
they will at least be just to me.
The fire at the Motto was caused
by an accident which might have
happened, does frequently happen
in other theatres, and the fact that
six thousand feet Of inflamable Gel
uloid were burned within five and
a half feet of a dry pine ceiling and
vet that ceiling was only little
harmed, would appeal TO all think
ine people as clear evidence that
precaution was taken to conflne any
fire to the operating ROOM

an opera house in the second story
OF a building, with no chance of es-
cape from fire except over the stage
down rickety rotten stairway. or
a jump from a second story win
dow to the pavement below This
kind OF nerve is also appalling. Yes
GelderS is certainly a nervy man,
and am here to prove it.
| have heard it said that Gelders
is small man, and this am forced
to grant you. Gelders is a small
man, but he was not afraid to strike
when his victim was only woman,
and am here to defend her.

The Garden of Neatness.

Paul, aged four, had been taught
neatness ever since he was big enough
to walk. When the warm weather
came on a wee plot Of ground in the
corner Of the garden was given to him
for his very own to plant things in.
His mother showed him how to put
the little seeds in the ground, and how
to water and care for them and watch
to see the tiny sprigs Of green force
their heads above the earth. At last
y few spears of parsley or radishes or
whatever 1t happened to be came up
and even flourished.
One morning Paul was discovered
In front of the kitchen sink, tip-toe,
water streaming over something he
clutched in his chubby hands.
"What are you doing, Paulie,
called his mother from across the
room.
