We Learn That There Was No Basis for This Tale of the Sea-

Many things done by Secretary Daniels of the Navy
have dspleased many people
He refuses to permit robbery of the United States
Treasury through extoronate chargewhenever he can
prevent it.
He earned the disapproval of gentlemen that sell tor
pedoes to the Government two thousand dollars
apiece of the price of their product.
He fights against extravaganza wherever he is re-
sponsble for the bills For every dollar that the Govern
ment pays him in year he has already saved the Gov
eminent than ten thousand.
Secretary Daniels also annoyed certain individuals by
his attitude toward the morals of the navy.
He took the ground that he would give to young
coming from home the service of Government
board ship the protection that he would give to such
young man entering his family.
He took seriously the idea that fight for their
country and at the time conduct themselves WELL and
that the at the head of great service is responsible
the mothers and fathers that entrust their to him.
This did not please some but it DID please the mothers
and fathers of the country very weas proved by the
rush of volunteers to the navy under Mr. Daniels

the Secretary has been obliged deal rather vigorously

The employe must have certain qualities but need not
necessarily have ALL of the qualities that make up
cessful business woman working for herself
In the working for another for instance, these
are the three essentials:
First she must be PLEASANT; in the literal meaning
of the word pleasant which zone that peases another
She be neat agreeable to look at All the better
for her standing with three other women the average
intelligent walks up to her first rather than to
the others
If she pleases the customer pleased and that is the
foundation of commercial prosperity
She must be quick. The only real property that we
have whether are clerks owners, is TIME
ANY who wastes her time wastes her money, and
that of her employer just as certainly though she were
dropping money on the floor and not picking it up
Third she must have politeness, which is something
more than pleasantness.
To be pleasant means not to offend.
But to be polite It 90 of your
way what the other person wishes consider

emotions the weaknesses, the desires of others.
Given pleasant disposition, quickness in action and
poiteness, and you have good competent clerk
But for the woman who is to RUN business you need
many things more.
She must be quick without neglectng careful nspec
ton of everything that she does with her quckness.
She must be able to THINK while she acts That is
not always easy.
She must combine knowledge of men, with reasonable
suspicion of those she does know and yet so much
suspicion to make herself the object of suspicion
She must fight Of course against particular quality

What Makes a Woman Success

Here Are Half Dozen Quick Answers-and You Could

A very intelligent young woman, with wide -brimmed

accomplished business success:
"What do you consider THE qualities that make I'D

that you don't give it half the
care you give to your own type
writer.
Here, among others, are the
things you do to it:
You squeeze it into corsets too
tight for it.
You squeeze its feet into small
and high-heeled shoes.
You clothe it in garments that
are too warm in summer and not
warm enough in winter.
You put into its stomach every
thing you like the taste Of, regard
les Of whether that stomach can
digest that food or not. Among
your faVorite diet, probably, are
pickles, doughnuts, butter cakes,
pie, hot bread, and dozens Of other
indigestibles. You know they are
indigestible. You eat them, any
way. Then you wonder why you
have a headache and why your
ewes feel dueer.
Instead Of drinking water you
drink coffee and tea When nature
imperiously demands water-when
you are ''thirsty"-you drink a
glass of water. 1t does not occur
to you to drink water at other
times.
You should work, II you can. in
rooms filled with air and sunshine
You should sleep in rooms filled
with fresh air. The chances are
that you voluntarily keep the win
dows closed, unless the weather is
very warm. You deprive your
lungs OF air and your blood Of
oxygen, because you are too care
less or too thoughtless to realize
the utter dependence on air Of the
human machine you live in.
You see, Ethel, the problem OF
sane living is really no problem at
all. Barring accidents, the child
with the right start and proper
hygenic instruction can keep well
all his life. But he doesn't.
But normal, hygienic living is
possible to all. Its rewards are

ATRIOTISM
By Mrs. Wilson Woo DIR W.

TT ANYONE had told us three
years ago that patriotism
would again become a ma
tional sentiment, an individual
creed, instead of being the sole
monopoly Of George Conan, we
would probably have replied with
an excessive "Fiddlesticksl" or
whatever was its slang synonym
Of the moment.
Three years ago, IL anyone had
asked US, Are you a good Ameri-
CAM" the chances are that we
would have answered a little hest
tatingly, We'll, I'm an American,
but / hope that I'm a Citizen of
the World" 1t seemed a bit crude
and raw and Elijah Porgram-ish to
go around proclaiming ones self
a good "Amurrican." In the pre-
war days one would rather have
died than be provincial. But ask
us that question nowi We fling
our answer against the stars. We
know in every beat of our hearts,
in every drop Of blood in our veins,
that we are good Americans.
We have always been sensitive
people. We took deeply to heart
the criticism and ridicule of older
nations. We had a lurking sus-
picion that we were regarded on
the other side as a sort Of comedy
relief"
But we aren't a joke to Europe
nowadays. She asks no sweeter
music than our nasal twang"
echoing over her war-swept fields.
No, we are anything but a joke TO
England; anything but a joke 20
bleeding, weary France, that Star
in the Night; hardly a joke to Bel
glum, blessing US with pallid, pain
racked lips as her good Samaritan;
no joke to stumbling, swaying Rus
STA, to Italy, to Serbia, Roumania,
and Portugal.
Least OF all, although she tries
to make 1t appear so, are we a joke
to Germany? The Teutonic mind
is essentially thrifty; and the i'm
perial government would not waste
such a wealth OF hate as it is striv-
ing 10 stir up against US on an
enemy that it despised.
The lank figure OF Uncle Sam in
his grotesQue habiliments and with
his wagging goatee is no longer a
comic supplement character, but
to the German a menacing spirit
of vengeance, and to the allies an
angel of rescue. II is like seeing
Happy Hooligan transformed into
the Archangel Michael.
To US the whole world is looking
for relief-to our manhood, TO our
dollars, to our material resources,
to our energy and inventiveness,
and, above all, to our ideals. Do
you realize what that last means?
That we will win this war and
dictate the policy of the future on
the most intangible and transcen-
dental basis that the mind of man
can conceive-an ideal of true
human relations.
No one can definitely predict
The Washington times., 1917-09-22

what the ultimate consequences of
the struggle will be. But 1t goes
without saying that there will be
momentous changes in the fabric
Of society and in the relations of
the States. 1t is not impossible
that Tennyson's dream Of the
parliament OF man, the federation
Of the world" may in some form
be realized.
And 1t seems certain that out OF
the fog of the present will emerge
better understanding and appre-
citation of each other among the
peoples Of this earth. In fact, 1t
is already apparent. Europe no
longer regards US solely as a race
Of blatant millionaires and tourists
with a dollar bill for a soul; and
we too have had to revise some old
estimates.
The stage Englishman with the
monOcle and the noisy, checked
suit hardly stands as a type, when
we think of those "Tommies" with
their CHEEKY courage and lack OF
"swank' who have sustained every
tradition of the British fighter from
Crecy to Waterloo and Balaclava,
and have gone them one better.
The Frenchman, since the Marine
and Verdun, means something
vastly different to US than the ges-
ticulating Alphonse and CASTOR OF
musical comedy.
A better understanding and
higher mutual respect among peo-
pies, fuller measure of democ-
racy, a tremendous advance in the
equalization of the sexes, truer
vision of the state Of its respon-
sibilities, long step toward uni
versal Observation-Disclosures will be
the first fruits of victory.
A victory in which for the first
time in history women will share
as fully as men. The women Of
today would never have been con-
tent with the empty comfort Of
the phrase, "They also serve who
only stand and wit"-and weep.
They stood not merely ready to
serve, but they demanded service
as their right and their privilege.
They said to their various govern
ments, prove us. Call the men
TO the war, and let US do the work
in their stead. We are equal to
any task you can impose upon u.s."
And the governments proved them,
and new era in woman's work be-
gan. Wider horizons opened be-
fore her. When one sees a new
horizon, one presses on toward the
sunrise.
There have been many criticisms
of the American woman. She was
an unframed. undisciplined, spoiled
child. But the answer to her crit
les is that when the moment came
from coast to coast she rose to it.
No wonder, then, that we, men
and women both, no longer hedge
and hesitate when asked: Are
you a good American? ?" but an
swer quick and straight as a rife
bullet, and with the conscious
pride of st. Paul when he replied
TO the centurion, "Romanus sunni"

TINE first thing / shall tell
you, Ethel, is that you can
- afford doctors, if you need
them. No economy is more fool
ish than economy that saves doc
tor bills and neglects health.
Neither can l unquestioningly
accept your diagnosis of your all
ment. There may be some wrong
condition, slight and easily cor
rected, which accounts for your
run down" state.
So go to a good doctor, if you
possibly can. Have him give you a
thorough examination; and then
ask him to lay out hygienic pro-
gram which you can follow.
So far as the upbuilding process
is concerned, / think l could fore
cast what the doctor will tell you
to do. Nowadays all good doctors
are giving their patients very little
medicine and very much the same
advice-the advice ] quoted in my
previous article. As you are one Of
many readers who have written
asking for another article about
health, / will emphasize a few
points.
II you are merely run down."
as you think, one visit to him may
be enough. Your upbuilding will
then be a matter of intelliHently
following his instructions.
The doctor may tell you to try
to realize, first of all, that your
body is the machine on which you
are wholly dependent in your
struggle with life. On its condi-
ton rests, very largely, the eff
cheney of your work and the in
come you earn.
To make the matter clearer,
suppose we assume that your
work is to operate a typewriter.
One Of the first lessons you learn
is that you must keep that type
writer in perfect condition.
You clean it regularly. You see
that all its parts are in good
working order. You keep it oiled.
If, Notwithstanding that care, it
gets out of order, YOU call in a
specialist and have it repaired.
AS he repairs it, the specialist
tells you that such and such things
hurt the machine. You avoid do
ing these things in future, don't
you? You realize that the ma
chine is made to go, but that it
won't go if it is ill-treated.
The lesson of the comparison is
clear. You yourself live in a ma
chine-an infinitely more precious
machine than anything else you
work with. But the chances are

LOCAL COTTON
SITUATION
As Seen BY Some Of The Most
Conservative Scotland Neck
Business Men

For several days past, since the
cold snap Of last week, especially
the frost Of Friday night, the cot
ton plants have been dying, and
in view Of the fact that cotton
seed and the lateness Of the seas
on, the condition has caused no
slight alarm.
Yesterday committee compos-
ed Of Messrs. G. Hoffman, Ray
Boyette, w. T. Hancock and Ed
Walston drove to several sections
examining the plants, and to ar
rive at, as far as possible the stat
us Of the local situation.
Mr.. Hoffman, always conserva-
tive, is Of the opinion that the
present showing is serious; that
in many parts the affected plants,
which will have to be plowed in
and others planted will reach ff-
ty per cent Of the planting, while
at other places, the plants not hav-
ing been set so early will escape
the ravages Of the cold weather
Mr. w. T. Hancock thinks that
the whole matter is one that the
next fe wdays will determine !;
that if the weather is moderately
warm, and the nights too, that
the loss will not be as great as at
first thought.
Mr.. Frank Shields, one Of the
largest farmers Of this section, if
not the largest, has been Watching
closely he cotton Of this section,
and he states that the cotton dy-
ing Oh Saturday last and then it
looked as though seventy five per
cent would have to be replanted
but Sunday was milder and the
killing Of the plants stopped, yes
terday was even better and today
was an Improvement over yes
terday, so that his estimate is that
the re-planting will be from ten
to twenty per cent, providing the
weather continues warm.
