a GOOD INDEX

Is Ardmore growing more prosper
Gus? Take note of the amount of
advertising being done, and you will
find the answer more clear than in
any other line of endeavor. Mer-
chants advertise because, first, they
have the goods, and second, they be-
leye they have the people to cater to,
and thirdly, because the people have
the money to spend. and prosperity
and spending are synonymous terms,
That does not always mean that In
prosperous towns all people do is to
spend their money, but it does mean
that they buy what they need and
indulge themselves to the extent of
having at least the comforts they
are entitled to.
Then, again, merchants are judic-
ious. The most progressive advertise
in some shape or other all OF the
time but they gauge their advertising
by current conditions.
And, judging Ardmore by its pro-
gressive advertisers, glance each
day at The Ardmorete alone, to say
nothing of other worthy mediums,
will convince anyone that prosperity
Is here.
And finally. judging by the methods
employed by those merchants, by the
wonderful variety of stock carried
it is evident they have every conf
dence in prosperity remaining.
And it will

WASHINGTON. Feb. 11.-Aftor a

Editorial Opinion
THE LUsITANIA,S RUsE OF WAR,

THE IINlIANlAN hNHL VI w y ~
From the New York Tribune.
In lying the United States nag in
his run across the Irish Sea the cap
tain OF the Lusilania violated no rule
of international law. The use OF the
flag of an enemy or of a neutral Is
permitted within certain limits TO a
warship. u is one of the ruses with
which every student of naval warfare
is familiar. So far as war vessels are
concerned our government has always
countonanced tnis practice, although
directing that no vessel shall actually
engaging an enemy without first hoist
ing the national ensign.
We're il not for the extraordinary
revision of the laws of warfare at sea
and of the rules of blockade which
Germany has in view, this question OF
the use of neutral flags by the mer-
chant ships of the Allies would pos
sess only an academic value. The Al
lies have no remedy except reprisals
against the barbarous plan outlined
by Germany of sinking enemy mer-
chantmen without warning or mercy.
These vessels may try to secure for
themselves civilized treatment by fly
ing a neutral flag. and it is a matter
between them and the commanders of
the submarines which attack them
whether or not they secure IT,
But for the American flag flown on
an American ship there must be COM
plete recognition of neutral rights as
they now exist The United States can
never afford to admit the validity of
the paper blockade by which Ger
many is going to try to exclude our
ships from British ports. or permit
those ships TO be dealt with as pOssi-
bic carriers of contraband, except un-
der the recognized rules of interna-
tional law. That remains for us the
crux of the whole rusc of war and

New News Of Yesterday
How Edward Everett Pre-
Jared for Public Speaking
BY Holland.

AT time when Senator Chauncey
NJ llepew was describing to me some
of the great American orators whom
he had seen and heard and also two
or tlfee of those who were esteemed
masters of public speech in England,
asked him if he was familiar with
what Emerson had said of Edward
Everett. The Senator asked me il
could repeat offhand what Emerson
had said, but could not do that. |
could only paraphrase Emersons
words. He had said of Everett that
it semed 10 him that the latter in
many respects was the most consum-
mate orator America had produced.
And he did not even except Daniel
Webster, for while Webster always
spoke as though his audience was en-
titled TO the best in the way OF
rhetoric and language which he pos
sessed and also were justified in ex-
pecting that he would elothe in
rhetoric and language a profound
the highest art OF a public speaker.
told Senator Dcpew that Emerson had
said that DemOsthenes and been i'm
properly translated when he was quot
ed as having said that the art of pub
! lie speaking consisted in action,
action. and then again action" but
that what Dcmosthones really said
was il consisted in acting, acting. and
/ IN
/ Edward Everett was the master i'm the
I United States. in EmersOn's opinion,
II am very glad that you have told
me this" Senator Depew said. 81 al
! ready knew that Emerson had very
/ high regard for Edward Everett and
! that he took great pleasure in attend
/ ing tho ceremonies of the inaugura-
ton Of Everett as president of Har-
ward. He regretted that Webster
should have appeared on that occa-
sion and thereby should have dCtract-
cd from the interest which Everett
otherwise would have maintained.
81 am in perfect agreement will
! what you tell me Emerson says OF
/ Everett In my opinion he was the
most artistic of all the American ora
tors. Certainly he was the most artis-
] tic of all whom have heard. He had
so thoroughly mastered his business
in public speaking that he seemed TO
all his hearers to be speaking natur-
ally and quietly 10 them. In that way
each hearer was possessed with the
idea that Everett was addressing him
/ personally. Yet Edward Everett
/ placed himself in looking glass
I whenever he rehearsed public
speech he was to make, studying
every expression Of the face, every
position of the body and every ges-
ture. He did exactly what an actor
does who is making up his face SO
that he could SEE if the expression Of
his face took on the appearance Of
setting forth the thought which he ut
tered. In that way. too he studied
his gestures. with himself as a model
in the glass. No actor ever worked
more diligently at his part to extract
every opportunity that lay in il than
did Everett when preparing one OF his
orations."
