The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1916-08-05
MAKING A NAME FOR A TOWN.

The citizens of every town have it
within their power to make or mar
their own municipal name. 1t will be
good or bad, just as they choose to
make it.
WI of Pleasantville are no excep-
tons to the rule, and the citizen who
loves his own home will always bear it
in mind.
There are many good points in fav-
or of our community, and when the
stranger comes to our midst we should
not fail to impress these facts upon
his mind.
We should take him in hand, exhibit
the community as you would a blood
ed horse, let him understand that he
is among a fair minded, energetic and
generous hearted people, and when he
goes to other climes he will speak as
he has been spoken to.
That is the way regulations are
made.
But there is another side, and it is
there that mischief is too often done.
The stranger enters our door and
we Immediately begin to complain of
the community and of the people.
Nothing just suits US. Nothing is
as it should be. Everything is wrong
and the town is on the way to the
dogs.
And again the, stranger speaks as
he sees and hears.
That is the way regulations are de-
stroyed.
Which is it to be with us?

ONE BIRD AT A TIME

Some people start life by trying to
kill two birds with one stone and go
down to their graves without having
bagged either one.
1t is a fatal mistake that is often
made.
The young man begins his career
and is naturally anxious to get ahead.
There are two ways that are COM
monty used to accomplish this end.
The one is to do one thing at a time
and do it well. The mar who does
this advances steadily, if at times
slowly, but in the end he attains the
goal he seeks. Patience and energy
and f~aithfulness are rewarded by sue
cess. The other is impatient and
wants to go forward by leaps and
bounds. He wants to kill two birds
with one stone. Sometimes he wants
to bag a dozen at one throw. AS a re-
suit his objects are confused, his aim
is too quick and careless, and he
scores more misses than hits.
This is unsatisfactory to the en-
ployer and in time such a mar gener-
ally finds himself looking for another
job.
The wise employer is an excellent
Judge of men. 1t is a part of his bus
mess to be such, and it is because of
his ability to guage the capacity of
his men that he succeeds in life.
He wants no drones, and the two
bird man does not appeal to him. He
wants f%aithfulness, efficiency and
steadiness, and that can only be Sc
cured by selecting the nan who does
one thing at a time and does it well.
1t is a lesson every young man
should learn on the threshold of life.

STILL TONGUES AND OTHERS.

There is an old saying that a still
tongue makes a wise head, but there
are times when the tongue should
work for the public good.
Candidates for public office some
times imagine that a sphynx-like atti-
tude inspires public confidence. II
does not. The people have a right to
know where every candidate stands
on every question upon which he can
exert the slightest influence while in
public office.
Some candidates understand this
and are quick to explain their atti-
tudes to the voters. Usually they are
successful at the polls, if their views
are in harmony with the welfare of
the voters of their districts.
Others are mum as an oyster" dur
ing the campaign, or all vital subjects,
but talk loudly about nothing, and ex-
pect the voters to support them On
faith or friendship alone.
They deserve to hold the bag, and
they usually do.
The American voter of to-day goes
through life on his own brain, and he
isn't giving the fruits of that brain
for the benefit of any candidate who
fears to take him into his confidence
on public matters.
Let the candidates speak. The pub
lie is ready to listen.

DRAWING THE LONG BOW.

Parents of young men who are serv-
ing in the National Guard regiments
on the border are much concerned
over some lurid tales of supposed
hardships which have been told and
written by certain sensational news
paper correspondents and ~disgruntled
soldiers.
That the relatives and friends of
those at the front should be guilty of
sending out such ridiculous reports to
worry and alarm the people "back
home" is inconceivable. Yet it is a
fact.
One story that is being spread is
to the effect that the men are half
starved. Let us dissect this story.
The government issues a stated am
cunt of %rations to each man each day.
Here is one days allowance per man.:
IA pounds of fresh meat.
l pound and 2 ounces of fresh
bread, or its equivalent in flour. One
eighth of an ounce of baking powder.
Two and four-tenths ounces of navy
beans, or rice or hominy.
IL pounds of potatoes; or part po-
t%atoes, part onions, part tomatoes, or
other fresh vegetables.
One and twenty-eight hundredths
ounces of prunes, or dried apples, or
peaches, or jam.
One and twelve-hundredths ounces
of coffee, or tea.
Three and two-tenths ounces of SUI
gar.
One-half ounce of evaporated milk.
egar, or pickles.
Sixty-four hundredths of an ounce
of salt.
Four-hundredths of an ounce of
pepper.
Sixty-four hundredths of an ounce
of lard.
Five-tenths of an ounce of butter.
In addition they get syrup, flavor
ing extracts and spices, ice for pre-
serving perishable goods, coal and
wood for cooking purposes.
A splendid field range is furnished
each company for cooking, and every
facility is provided for their needs
and welfare.
The soldiers of the regular army
are receiving exactly the same allow
ance as the soldiers of the National
Guard, yet never a murmur is heard
from the regulars.
1t is but just, however, to the great
mass of National Guard troops to
state that the kicking generally comes
from a class of men who are never
satisfied, no matter how much they re-
ceive.
If there are any parents and friends
of soldiers in this vicinity they should
not be alarmed. The government
supplies all the men require in food,
the surgeons are doing their utmost
in sanitary measures, and the author
tiles are straining every nerve to pre-
serve the health and morals of the
troops.
Sensational newspaper reports and
letters coming in from the border
should be read with unlimited reserve,
and salt should be sprinkled upon ev-
z.- H.

Meet Next at Bishopville.

Florence, Dec. 2.-The next ses-
sion of the Methodist conference will
be held in Bishopville. Bishopville
and Camden extended invitations.
Bishopville extended her invitation
through the Rev. G. P. Watson, pas
tor, and the Hon. Thos. G. Mcleod,
Camden through the Rev. John H.
Graves, pastor, and Judge Mendel
Smith. Mr.. Smith is not Metho-
dist, but came representing the popu-
lation of his city and his eloquent
speech will long be remembered. He
so caught the conference that all
voted reluctantly against the judge.
Mr.. Mcleod was also at his best, and
with rare humor presented the claims
of Bishopville. Bishopville was
chosen by a good majority, and on
motion of Mr.. Graves, of Camden, the
selection was made unanimous.
Another matter that excited inter-
est was the resolution introduced
looking to the membership in the An
nual Conference of the lay leaders
of the church. The resolution was
adopted and the State lay leader, the
Hon. Thos. H. Tatum, of Bishopville,
and the lay leaders of the several dis
tricts are constituted members of the
conference.
The Rev. Thos. G. Herbert pre-
sented a resolution directing the Sec
retary to prepare and forward a mes

Battle and Mapeuvers to
Test Efficiency.

The District Militia is undergoing a
rigid field inspection by officers of the
Inspector Generals ONCE, in equipmen,
and men, in and out of action.
Maj. Fox Connor had the mounted
troops go through maneuvers yesterday.
Troop A had its camp inspected. mounted
drill, and crawied through wet grass in
a dismounted skirmish. Batteries A and
B had all their equipment inspected, and
went through a standing gun drill, with
aiming practice. Mounted battery drill
will come later. Each organization pitch
ed pup" tents as a part of the inspec-
ton. Maj. Connor seemed pleased with
the exhibition. and praised highly GER
tain movements.
When the Third Infantry went into
sham battle Maj. William Jackson, in
spector for the infantry, accompanied
them. He watched the battle. and the
way in which the men handled them
selves. Today the infantry companies
will pitch shelter tents, and go through
close order drill for the inspector.
Both inspectors will remain at the camp
several days.
Oficers at the camp were pleased al
the orders issued by Maj. Raymond w
Pullman. chief of police, directing police
men to persuade all young men possible
to enlist. II every policeman pushes re-
cruiting II will have the same effect as
! turning the Third Infantry loose or
Washington every day. as there are 7st
men on the force.
Plans are being laid for big pay mus.
ter on Monday, which must be attended
by every man before he gets his pay. The
same afternoon at o'clock the parade
| of the Third Infantry on the White Lot
| will be given to aid recruiting.
