SHOES AND MOTOR CARS

Word comes from South Africa
that the demand for American boots
and shoes, always great in that dis
trict, has been increased in remark
able fashion since the war. From
another part of the southern hemis
sphere. Argentina, our consuls write
in that American automobiles are
gaining in popularity, and that If
commerce with the United States can
be hade half as easy as commerce
with Europe Yankee motor cars will
lead all others on the plains of the
Plata.
Apparently, whether the people
under the southern cross go on foot
or by auto, they are learning to look
to America for their travelling gear.
Their education in this matter is
still incomplete. For the last year
for which figures were available, the
United States supplied only one
fifth of the automobiles imported in
to Argentina. The proportion is
greater now, but there is plenty OF
chance for 1t to increase. As for
boots and shoes, there is no reason
why this country should not gain as

When we excuse ourselves for not
answering a letter or acknowledging
courtesy, by declaring that we
have not time we forgot that the
greatest and busiest among us always
found time to be courteous. No presi-
dent of the United States perhaps,
was as busy as Theodore Roosevelt,
yet letter to him rarely waited two
DAYS for an answer 1t was often the
wonder of Mr.. Gladstone's friends that
an answer from him would come the
next day. Phillips Brooks was an
other punctiliousness with tremen-
dous correspondence. So was Oliver
Wendell Holmes, and so was Richard
Mansfield. But they had secretaries
and stenographers at their back" you
say. No, my friend: only Colonel
Roosevelt and Mr. Gladstone had, and
even the majority of the latter's notes
came In his own writing. The others
wrote their letters generally with their
own hands. But with them courtesy
was inbred; they found time to be
careful of the little courtesies of life
and of consideration for others feel

men they accepted it as compliment,
not as something taken for granted.
