TAFT.

Golfers: He thought that the in
terpreting of statutes was all there
was of life or office. The spirit of the
times went by him. He lacked en-
ergy; in repleated public addresses he
used stronger words than Roosevelt
ever did concerning certain abuses of
the courts, but the benefciaries of
those wrongs never worried; but at a
single speech from Roosevelt in pri-
vate life they flew into panic. Taft
meant we'll feebly.'' The public did
not feel strongly against him-he
never inspired so robust an emotion
as hate. People didn't think of him
as having the will to do evil; rather
they felt sorry for him as an easy-go-
ing man in a strenuous time, one to
whom ease and sleep were more at
tractive than the strife that was ne
cessary to keep his foothold. In the
unhurried quiet of some inferior bench
minutely comparing tweedledee and
tweedledum, his flaws might never
have come out, and he might have
ended his years, not with any particu-
lar glory, of course, but certainly with
out opprobhium. The country blam-
ed his environments more than the
Incidence which permitted those en-
vironments to be what they were;
Delivers epigram crystalized the
public conception of Taft: "A large
amiably body, closely surrounded by
persons who know exactly what they
want" Some pretty grave faults in
his character came out; for example,
his participation IL the forging OF a
public document to escape the embar-
rassing consequences of a false posi-
ton; but the public thought Of this
as the petty subterfuge Of feeble
man rather than the big wickedness
Of malevolent one.

MAKING BUSINESS OF ATHLETICS


One of the most marked character.
istics Of the American team of ath.
letics now making such high marks at
Stockholm is the tendency of the men
from this county to take athletic
work very seriously.
With the British, athletics is al
ways kind of side issue, a gentle
mans Diversion, which he takes up
more or less incidentally to other
pursuits.
The American is too whole hearted
to consider even sport in this manner.
What is worth doing at all is worth
doing we'll. If he is going into ath-
letics, he goes in to win, and no
means of winning will pass untried.
On the whole it is fine spirit. With
some men it leads to the frittering
away of energy in pursuits disconnect-
ed with the real ends of life But
with others it is a great training to
learn to do some one particular thing
better than anyone else, no matter if
it is merely running 100 yards. The
same spirit taken into business spells
a grand success

STAFFORD LOSES ENTIRE CROP.

Seymour Stafford, the genial pro.

heavy hail storm which swept Bow

tai and the strip covered by the storm
which was 20 miles long and five miles
wide is as black as when it was seed

ALWAYS BARGAINS IN THE
STORES.

Newspaper readers who see only the
news columns are far from getting
the whole news.
The advertisements are essentially
newspaper themselves. No news
dispatch from Washington or London
comes home so closely as the things
affecting home life that are being
dnoe in our stores day by day.
Business has its events, it crises
its opportunities, like the bigger life
played on the national stage. When
q merchant, after a tussle with man
ufacturers and importers, gets q
block Of goods at low price that
has high value, it is an event far
more intimately connected with home
life than most of the news that news
papers print.
When he finds that through his OWL
error Of judgment, or because Of sea
sonal conditions beyond human con
troll, he has overstocked, and must
close out to turn his goods to cash.
that too is public event more i'm.
portant to the housewife than some
far off earthquake or fire with all its
tragedy.
Discriminating buyers know very
we'll that there are always bargains in
every store. There are many condi
tions that compel merchants at var.
ious times to offer goods at prices
below their real worth. No human
mind can estimate just what kind OF
goods the public will take to. The
over stock on certain lines often
consists of the most substantial goods
which did not sell because not snowy
enough. Notes must be paid, and
new stock must be put in, and the re-
suit is profit for the wary trailer OF
bargains.
Years ago, the customer had tc
come around and dig special values
out by her own persistence. Today
the advertisement writer saves hel
all that bother, and she finds in hel
favorite newspaper a full directory
Of special values.
Wherefore newspaper readers who
take the pains to go through the ad
vertising columns, almost invariably
find things meeting their needs, to be
had at a lower price for some good
reason.

THE RETAILER AS "A BUSINESS
MAN: AN APPRECIATION.


THE great mass Of business is, Of
course, done by men whose business
Is either small or of moderate size.
The middle-sized business men form
an element of strength which is of
literally incalculable value to the ma
ton. Taken as class, they are
among our best citizens. They have
not been seekers after enormous for
tunes; they have been moderately and
justly prosperous. by reason of deal
ing fairly with their customers, com
petitors, and employees. They are sat-
isfied with legitimate profit that will
pay their expenses of living and lay
by something for those who come at
ter, and the additional amount neces-
sary for the betterment and improve
ment of their plants. 4
"The average business man of this
type is, as rule, a leading citizen of
his community, foremost in every
thing that tells for its betterment, a
man whom his neighbors look up to
and respect; an integral part of his
community, bone Of it's bone and flesh
OF its flesh. ."-Theodore Roosevelt.
The Small Town:
William ALLEN White in eulogy of
the small town says:
'tGreat cities give much in aims, but
little in Justice. Only as We know
each other well can We treat each
other justly; and the city is a wilder
ness. of careless strangers whose in
stincts of humanity are daily becom-
ing more and more blunted to suffer
ing, because in the nature of things
suffering in cities must be impersonal.
'3The American country town, the
town of from one hundred to one
hundred thousand people, preserves
better than the crowded city and
better than the lonely ranch and iso-
lated farm life, the things that make
America great.
"The preservation of the home
trade to the home town carries with
it the preservation of many Of our
American institutions"
If the communities of this country
are essential to it's prosperity; if the
preservation of the small town is con-
ceded to be essential to the conserva-
ton of then whatever menaces the
small town menaces the civilization of
this country.
We believe that good live town,
with live merchants making some
thing more than living, are as much
of a necessity in the commercialism
of our country as is the farmer or the
manufacturer. For no one can deny
that every acre Of land has increased
in value in proportion to its prox-
unity to a good town or city, and de-
preciates in value just in proportion
to its distance from good town or
city.
And yet, though the trend of all this
argument is directed towards proving
that the preservation of the small
store, one fact must never be lost
sight Of: The small town does not
exist for the sake Of the stores which
form it's back bone. Neither does the
country around it owe to the stores of
the town a sacrificial tribute.
We retailers must justify our
stores; the town our stores have Gre
ated; the principle of buying across
the counter. We can only do this by
awakening to the nature of the re-
sponsibility which we have assumed,
and by a realization of the nature of
the problems with which we are con-
fronted. Otherwise, we will reserved
!y vanish from the face of the EARTH"

Club at the Broadway Tabernacle. Fifty

against the jibe that tho Balkan war Ia
a sad commentary on the effectiveness
Of the society He said:
"Quite the contrary Is the fact. Had
this Balkan outbreak occurred ten years
ago We should have seen an Europe in
volved In Q terrible war. The condition
Of public opinion as 1t existed ten years
ago would have made any other solution
of the problem impossible.
"The standard by which We must Judge
the work Of the International Peace Soci-
ETY. is not only what is happening now
but comparison Of present conditions
with what would certainly have hap
pen ed ten years ago"
DR.. Butler told how an address OF Lord
Haldane's at Oxford on "The German
People did much to avert a war. The
sophie" address was unnoticed in the
press Of the two countries until certain
friends OF peace had SOO,O 900 copies of il
printed and distribu ted throughout Ger
