THE JACKSON HERALD. JEFFERSON, GEORGIA
JOHN D. LIKED PHILOSOPHICAL
VERSE
John D. Rockefeller, Sr., liked
j philosophical verse and humble pray
ers. It delighted him to share them
i with others. This he often did by
having the words printed on small
cards which he distributed to friends
and Ho.uaintances.
A lavorit*—and he had it print
ed on many cards—was:
“I DO IT UNTO THEE”
“Lord of all pots and pans and things
since I’ve no time to be
“A saint by doing lovely things, or
watching late with thee,
“Or dreaming in the dawnlight, or
storming heaven’s gates,
“Make me a saint by getting meals
and washing up the plates.
“Although I must have Martha’s
hands, I have a Mary mind;
“And when I black the boots and
shoes, thy sandals, Lord, I find.
“I think of how they trod the earth,
what time I scrub the floor;
"Accept this meditation, Lord, I
haven’t time for more.
“Warm all the kitchen with thy
love and light it with thy peace;
“Forgive me all my worrying and
make all grumbling cease.
“Thou who didn’st love to give men
food, in room or by the sea,
“Accept this service that I do—l do
it unto thee.”
The card did not name the author
of the verse.
Still another card carried a sim
ple verse by the great philanthro
pist himself. It is not known if Mr.
Rockefeller wrote any others: It
read:
“I was early taught to work, as well
as play;
“My life has been one long, happy
holiday—
“ Full of work and full of play—
“l dropped the worry on the
way—
“And God was good to me every
day.”
The card was signed: “John D.
Rockefeller.”

HONEY ADVANCED AS CURE
FOR HAY FEVER BY SCIENCE
Waycross, Ga. —Honey has been a
popular item on the diet lists of
sanitariums for many years, but it
now bids fair to break into the hay
fever remedy column.
Scientists recently announced that
tests have shown hay fever can be
cured by eating honey gathered by
bees from plants that aggravate the
patient.
In other words, if hay fever is
aggravated by pollen from golden
rod, the patient may be cured by
eating honey gathered by bees from
a golden rod range.
J. J. Wilder, past president of the
Georgia Beekeepers’ Association, and
one of the largest honey producers
of the Southeast, sent- a supply of
honey to a hay fever patient in Shel
by, N. C., in response to a request
based on the new pollen theory.
In this particular case the pa
tient’s hay fever has been found to
come from the pollen of pecan
trees. The patient wrote to Way
cross, a nationally known honey
center as well as pecan center, ask
ing for a shipment of honey from
an apiary close to a pecan grove.
His order has been tilled, and the
honey test is being applied.
Some articles crowded out of this
issue will appear next week.
