Attract the attention of the pub
lic," is the secret of craftsmanship in
virtually every line. Next comes the
merit Of the goods. Upon the latter
depends whether the dealer holds his
trade. Many ingenious methods are
employed in salesmanship. The art
becomes closely related to human ma
ture.
An Albany cigar dealer has DEM
onstrated explicitly just how far the
eye enters into the question. He
discovered he was stocked with
brand of cigarettes that were prov
ing "stickers" Instead of reducing the
price and consequently losing money,
or barely clearing at cost, he devised
a new method. He ranged a half
dozen boxes along the top of his show
cases. Each was inclosed In glass
case of its own. Naturally the at
tention of the customer was attracted
by their individuality.
Those cigarettes were disposed Of
at profit. That Albany cigar dear
er discovered something that is max
ing money for him. That little idea of
individuality he is applying to every
line Of his goods that incline to "go
slow"

PALMYRA.

There is demand among taxpayers
here that more money be spent on the
lower schools and less on the high school.
This is an issue in the school election to
be held here tonight. While the schools
have attained a high standard, many
believe that more attention should be
paid to the lower grades, pointing out
that only small percentage of the total
enrolment ever attended the high
school, practically completing theil
education with the grammar grades.

handsome set of table silver to the Rev

If you live to seventy-two, which l
hope you may, your life is passed in
the following manner: An hour day
is three years. This makes twenty
seven years sleeping, nine years
dressing, nine years at table, six
years playing with children, nine
years walking, drawing and visiting,
six years shopping and three years

TUESDAY, MARCH II, 1914

ONE of the most ridiculous bills that
has been introduced in the Legislature
is that which provides that county en-
glneer shall not have anything to do
with supervision of work that is ordered
by the Board of Freeholders but that a
special overseer, supervisor or engineer
must be engaged to do that work. This
bill is either intended to strike at county
engineers and to hamper them in their
work or it is to provide jobs for political
favorites. This is bad measure and
should be defeated
UNDER the salary system the County
Clerks Office, in Camden county, has
shown itself to be money-maker. For
the years 1912, 1913 and 1914, the net
profit to the county has been $21, 701. 49,
County Clerk Patterson is entitled to
and is getting much praise for the very
efficient manner in which he has con-
Quoted the Office SO that it has returned
the handsome surplus recorded. And
this profit was after an expenditure of
about $4,000 per year for actual expen-
ses, including salaries. Camden county
has lot of business that goes through
its Clerks Office, but the net income 70
the county shows that there has been
extreme care in watching all details con-
nected with the institution.
HAVING made up their minds not to
be led by the nose OF to be bound by
caucus action after having decided to
vote in manner that they thought
proper several Democrats bolted and
thereby created somewhat of sensation.
Governor Fielder called them to sscon-
ference but when they got into the
executive chamber they found that the
gathering was to be a caucus" The
Governor showed those who were in the
room that there were certain measures
which he thought were just the thing
and they should become laws. Then the
proposition was made that the meeting
be caucus and that all the Democratic
members should be bound by the result.
There were six of the latter that did not
thlnK tnat way ana tney promptly left
the room. They do not look at the bills
in the same light that the Governor does
and they said SO and they further said
they would not be bound by what the
majority of their party decreed to be the
proper procedure. The bolt of the six
leaves the Democrats short of the neces-
SarV vote to pet the measures throuoh
The men who refuse to be bound believe
they are right in opposing the measures
on which there is so much anxiety to
get favorable action. The people they
represent want them to vote as they
have decided to. So the question whether
they were to obey the voice of their con-
stituents or to follow the leader was all
there was to it, They took the former
course
