Letter to T. A. Perry,
Covington, Ga.
Dear Sir:—A great many peopl*
will see your house in the course
ot the next ten years. We want it
to show what Devoe lead-and-zii c
will We should like you to 1
p a | nt it, and then not paint it
;i g a ij. f ()r ten vears-uiiless it needs
repainting.
We’ll like such a sample as that
j in every town in the country—
■ with a notice about it in the local
paper: 4 ( Mr. Perry’s house was
painted ten years ago with *Devoe
leud-and-zinc, and has eever been
repainted. The color is not so
bright os it was; but the paint is
as perfect a coat as ever, to keep
out water. * >
A gond leetd anc, oil jo ex
peeled to last three ye,us; it h »
good one that lasts three years;
gencrally does not. Devoe leud
and-zinc lasts twice as long, if 1
:
not:—
4 t If you have any fault to find
with this paint, either now in put
ring it on or hereafter in the
wear, tell your dealer about it.
l i We authorize him to do what
is right at our expense.”
We want your house as a sam
pie, and you as a witness.
Yours truly,
F \V Devoe & Co.
Covington Hardware Co., sell
oar paint.
Come out on May 8tb. and vote
for J. L. Whithead for Sherifl.he’e
all right.

Have you been to hear the Rev.
W. L. Walker preach? If not you
have missed a genuine treat,
Ciovds are flocking to hear him
day and night and nearly every
person who goes agasn. For clear
cut logic, good sen.sn, force and
gentleness, Mr. Walker is one of
the best revivalist who has been to
Way Cross. When you hear Mr.
Walker preach a sermon, you
don’t forget. Not only that, but
makes you want to live better. No
nagging, no platitudes, no sopho
moric eloquence. Just simple
heartfelt language, straightfor¬
ward and wholesome, genuine, true
with a streak of good humor that
makes you listen with delight nn- j
til he closes. The children keep :
wake aud listen to every utterance |
he makes, they recognize aud j
laugh at his humor and hang with j
interest on bis appeals to the better
side of men.
The Baptist church was packed
at all three services Sunday, and
at the men’s meet ing in the after¬
noon the iuteies was superb. Mr.
Walker has won \\ a.cross with 1
strong ties.

“THAT EAST NEWTON
TRIP” OISCE MORE.
Lest week we were Startled by a
chorus of of phone messages from
Mausgeld tdinig us point blank
that The Ente.prise was wanted
no more, Before we could ask for
explanations we were told that we
had said things against Mansfield.
That “East Newton Trip” was
th» trouble. V • pulled ourr lves
together and timidly reread the
piece that, had so suddenly caused
the disturbance, but ww were so
blind we couldn’t see the points
obnoxious.
Then we bethought that, to be
impartially fair, we Mould offer
the columns of The Enterprise for
any who might care to msk.e clear
up our perplexity: but as none re¬
to cur call, we began to
feel that there wasn’t much to it
after all. But just then spake the
Mansfield Leader, our bright and
newsy little neighbor, who enroll¬
ed itself as a mouthpiece and let
out the whole secret.- W« bad
“poked fun” at Mansfield, it said,
(hat the town was wot of the
“mushroom” or “Jonah’s gourd”
variety, that it and Newborn did
not “elbow each other, )» etc.
Well, the Leader wasn’t very haul
us" and we liare but little to
say m reply.
That, we poked fun at anything
or anybody, we disclaim. We
have nothing but praise for Mans
al)f j p >P f enterprising citizens,
„ d tile reason we did nat say
more „ |l00l fi „„ liule town
was because we intended to give it
a write-up later on which would
have tickled the most austere dys
peptic; but now, for fear of ineet
j mg our bellicose subscribers,
we don’t know what about it.
That Mansfield is a mushroom or
j ona h’s gourd town didn’t strike
us at all, and we can’t see why the
Jonah feature turned out to ba
such a whale. We regret that a
construction was put on what we
wrote that in any way should cast
a reflection on Mansfield. Because
we spoke up for Oewborn did not
mean that Mansfield should be
talked down, and such was not
our intentions.
