THE GRIT OF THE CrrBANs

Allowance must be made for men
who have been hungry for three years
and who have been fighting like guer-
rillas from the bush, with poor arms
and almost entirely unclothed. Such
men may not be of a very high type
of soldiers, as compared to those who
are well fed and well armed; but it is
impossible not to admire the grit of
people who have kept the field and
fought the best way they could for
independence under such adverse con-
ditions.

AN IINCALLED FOR ATTACK.

A Sunday paper makes drastic and
uncalled for editorial attack upon the
statesmen and saleswomen employed in
the Wilmington mercantile houses. 1t
accuses them with being churlish, super
cillious, discbliging and impolite, SEEM
ingly reversing the order OF things,
and taking the exception for the rule
In behalf OF the statesmen and sales
women so attacked, It is only fair to
state that not one in ten is possessed OF
the meannesses ascribed in this drastic
and misleading editorial article. AS a
rule thee Jerks in our stores are as at
tentiye and pleasant as IL is possible
for them to be, and the proportion Of
those who are not is exceedingly small.
When dealing with this question of
service there are two sides to consider
Customers are often more overbearing
and offensive to the statesmen and sales
women, and II is their perfect right to
resent 1t. Men and women who stand
behind the counters of our stores have
much that is unpleasant to contend
with. The two worst nuisances are
men and women who come in and do
not want anything and those who come
in and do not know what they want
and will not permit themselves to be
told.
A salesman has q perfect right to be
surly df he sees that he is being need
lessly and ruthlessly imposed upon, for
the interests OF no true business house
should rob him OF his self-respect.
A young saleswoman is usually all
right unless she is insulted or made
the object of the customers ill-humor.
AS for asaleswoman who is an old maid
her condition may be her fault or her
misfortune, but there is nothing in her
state OF celibacy which necessarily i'm
plies that she cannot properly perform
the duties to which she Is assigned by
her employer
We reiterate the statement that the
attack was both cruel and uncalled for.
and those against whom it was directed
have good ground for denying it's verify
and resenting its publication.
