JUST SHINE WHERE YOU ARE

Don't waste your time in longing
 For bright impossible things; Don't sit supinely wearing
 For the swiftness of angel wings; Don't spurn to be d rushlight,
 Because you are not star; But brighten some bit of darkness
 By shining just where you are. There is need of the tinisst candle
 AS well as the garish sun; The humblest deed in ennobled
 When it is worthily done; You may never be called to brighten The darkest regions afar; So fill, for today, your mission
 By shining just where you are.

D. B. Null Writes Again.
Interesting Letter From Old
Vet In Washington.
Washington, D. c. !.
February 10, 1913 !

Leader Enterprise, Fitzgerald
Georgia.
DEAR FRIENDs:-~-It atfofcs me
great pleasure to write a&hort
letter to your paper once IN a
while. | am still holding my po-
sition in the National Capital. end
am very well satisfied, except
that | don't get as much money
as | would like. Everybody seems
to be looking for easier jobs and
more money and less work. 1t
reminds me of the old pensioners
trying to get their pensions rails
ed. We are wanting our pay
raised and better jobs. Very
few men and women are satisfied
with thsir conditions in life. 1t
seems that they all want Govern
ment jobs. from a fourth-e4ass
postmaster's place to a Cabinet
position. They are trying to at
tain to a higher place ia political
life, and are overlooking the
higher standard of womanhood
and manhood.
The political situations, as a
rule, are demoralizing in many
instances. Government jobs in
Washington are different from
the same jobs in smaller places.
No intelligent or Industrious
young man should come here and
take a job. They spend all they
make and never accumulate any,
thing, and not one out of fifty
ever attains to any higher posi-
ton than their first one. The
best that a young man or woman
can do is to get married and go
on a farm and make life what it
was intended to be-multiplying
and replenishing the earth.
There are greater opportunities
now for the young man of the
country than there has been since
tie ciyal war. The farmer can
sell anything he produces at
good price, and it is just as easy
to produce as it ever was.
The young man or woman who
moves to the city generally waste
their life in excitement and riot
Gus living, trying to keep up with
the four hundred" and becor1
ing dissatisfied with their condi
ton in life. You very seldom
hear of a farmer committing
suicide, bat how many we heal
of in the city! When you live II
the country, you live in the nat

,1raI atmosphere in which Goo
created man among the beautiful
flowers and fruits Of earth.
Congress is now cn the agrl-
cultural bill. The people should
take more interest in that than
anv other one thing. because
we have to depend on 1t more
than anything else. This SHOULD
be the ideal of every member OF
Conqress-what can we do to adj
vance the interests of agriculture
| in this country?
Dudley M. Hughes wasin Pan
ANA when the postottice appro-
priation bill came up. However.
the entire committee on public
buildings and grounds recon-
mended $4,000 for Fitzgerald's
postoffice building. The House
passed the bill as recommended.
The Senate will have to concur
before it becomes a law. which
think will do by making a few
amendments to minor bills.
Washington has about compile
ted her preparations for the In
auguration. They have built one
stand on the east side of the cap
itol that will seat about l5,O0l
people.
J hope to see several OF my
friends here during the Inaugural
ton. Fortunately | will be OF
duty the week of the 4th, and
will take pleasure in showing my
friends around the city.
Yours truly.
