therefore to bring you out into the
open where you will have to show
your face.
came to my Office to collect his
weekly subscription for the Journal
and after. paying the bill 1 asked that
it be no longer delivered About a
week later you came to my office
and asked my reasons for discontinue
ing my subscription to your publica-
ton. AS an answer / reached over to
shelf near my desk for a copy OF
your paper and read to you an ex-
tract from one of your editorials, the
language of which l criticized as un-
dignified; INDUCED in perhaps by boys
sixteen and eighteen years of age
about pool-room tables and other
places, but not suited to my mental
tastes, and that the continuous use of
slang and editorial flippancy would
rather repel the active support of the
more sober minded citizenship from
any measures you might advocate in
your columns.
/ / asked you, Mr. Glenn, if you were
really in favor of the adoption of the
charter now submitted for considera.
ton to the voters of Daytona, and
| you stated that you were. Then
gave it as my opinion that your
editorial campaign in that direction
was, to say the least, tactical mis-
take. That the advocacy of city man
agership should not be injected into
the discussion at this time, because
the proposed charter called for com
mission form, and not manager form
of government and that the manager
form could be adopted at any time il
the future if the commission form
should prove unsatisfactory. Tha
the calling upon the citizens to name
: those thought suitable to constitut,
the board of commissioners for tn,
future government of Daytona at thi

dency of injecting a disrupting per
sonal controversy into a campaign

in the selection of such patent mat

found space in your publication
This was another of my reasons for
declining to receive your publication
any longer.

ial which forms the basis of this open
letter to you: TOO much religion
l frankly confess that | used the
expression that you injected too much
religion" into your editorials and the
general tendency of your publication.
That seemed to rather stagger you Mr..
Glenn. We then entered into a rather
detailed discussion of certain things
and / made it-as | thought-fully
clear to you that | found no fault with
religion per Sc, not to the reports
of Sunday sermons, nor to the publica-
ton of the good work done by the
ministers of the Gospel, the Sunday

that if men and women of the human

he would listen to the prayer of the
Hindu, the Mohammedan and the Jew

BROOKLYN BRIDGE.
Painting the Great Structure Is a Iona
and Costly Job.

Every three or four years il becomes
necessary TO paint the Brooklyn bridge
in order TO prevent the corrosion and
deterioration Of its structural members,
says Popular Mechanics Magazine.
This Is a task which requires the serv-
ices Of a small army Of human spid-
ers.' who climb about over the web
Of cables and siringers with almost as
much composure and agility as II they
were insects instead OF men.
With buckets and brushes. they cling
in the network, swinging in the wind
es the constant stream OF traffic surges
across the East river. Between them
and the river beneath there are more
than 30 feet of space and the cables.
Every exposed strand and spot Of the
whole structure must be painted. so
the men scramble over the cables until
they reach the topmoSt point OF the
great towers. which extend 90 feet
above the water. and finally end up on
the scafOlds suspended beneath the
structure. where the mastheads Of pass
liz vessels Scrape under the plankings,
sometimes missing them by a margin
OF only few inches. This work con-
unues usually for six or eight months

The cost of the immense Krupp

$4,000 and fires a 15pourd projectile,
at cost of SIS for each shot: a six
inch battery costs s16e, 900 and fires q

II you are called upon TO say a few
words after dinner or az a meeting.

The chances are that what you say
on such an occasion, without prepare
ton. will be OF no importance and
probably wouldn't have been OF i'm
portance If it had been prepared in ad-
vance. but that isn't the point
The point is that the minds OF your
hearers will be quite as blank and
amorphous as your own. and con-
sequently the few who actually listen
to you will have no means Of judging
whether what you say is rational or
not The majority. out OF politeness,
will assume that you did well. or If
they do not wish 10 commit themselves
too irrerievably they will say you did
well under the circumstances"
The whole secret in saying a few
words lies in making it few" IL you
go on and on and on. your audience
will not heed or remember a thing you
said. They will only remember that
you talked long enough to bore them.

OF course. as the tackle said. il is
against the rules 10 hold an opponent
unless be has the ball. but the coach
wanted results and not excuses. His
position was that man ought somehow
% break away; that no man must let
himself be he'd And that is true. no
one ought to let himself be held. The
excuse may be excellent, but q player
who Is held is put out Of the game q
effectively as II he were Of the fed.
he might just as well be Of the field.

The Exercise Of Choice,

The human faculties of perception.

are exercised only in making a choice
He who does anything because it is
the custom makes no choice. He gains
no practice either in discerning or de-
string what is best The mental and

improved only by being used. The
faculties are called into no exercise By
