American people.
men, the names of any one of whom
if published, would carry the convic-
ton that they are seeking only things
which will help and not hurt the pres
ident, one gets consensus Of opinion
which is unmistakable. Here and there
are suggestions Of method which diff
fer, here and there are different de-
grees of dissatisfaction, but, put
cetegorically, these are some of the
mistakes which the president himself
is declared to have made or to be
making today:
First, the president, in his absorp-
ton in foreign questions, has gotten
out of touch with the true spirit of
America on domestic questions. He
has listened to small group of ad-
visers who have had his ear to the
exclusion of the greater group OF
friends who come from the middle
west and west and sections Of the east
where people are finding it difficult
t. reconcile the brand of democracy
which Mr.. Wilson preached at the out
set Of his administration with the re-
tention of distinctly autocratic and
bureaucratic advisers and with his own
seclusiveness.
Query About Creei.
Second, the friends of the president
are unable to understand why George
Creel should be taken to Europe as
the head of any committee on public
information when Mr.. Creel. notwith-
standing his fine personality and close
personal friendship for the president
and sympathy with the Wilson ideas,
has lost the confidence of the Amer
lean press, and thereby the people.
Third. the friends of Mr.. Wilson
believe a grave mistake was made in
Announcing the dispatch of Mr.. Creel to
Europe at the same time that Post
master General Burleson was permit
ted to take over control of the Allan
tic cables. These things have been
denounced as colossal blunders," not
merely by republicans, but by Mr.. Will
sons most loyal friends, who mean
nothing personal by it, either.
"Fourth, they believe that Mr. Will
sons cabinet is superannuated and
| in a rut, and that the resignatio Of
William Gibbs McAdoo deprives the
administration of one of its most eff
Gent public servants, and sthat the
n, esdent should have never permitted
him to resign until after reconstruc-
ton was we'll under way or at least

Form NelU Relief
Society to Work in
Devastated France

Steps have been taken to incor-
porate an organization under the
name The American Committee for
Devasted France" for the purpose of
carrying on the relief work which
hitherto has been conducted by the
civilian division of the American
Fund for French wounded in those
parts Of France which have been de-
wasted by the German armies,
Among the women directors are
Miss Anne Morgan, Mrs. A. NJ. Dixie,
Miss Elizabeth Scarborough, Miss
Maude Wetmore, Mrs. Lewis B.

William Crocker.
The work If the American Fund for
French Wounded, which has been
recognized by the Red Cross as a co.
operating organization, has grown
very rapidly during the last year.
The primary object of that organi-
cation is the care of the wounded in
French hospitals, but special work of
various kinds such as civilian relief
in the devasted regions, the estab-
lishment of dispensaries, canteens,
ETC., has also been carried on very

The COlOred Bean

There is a margin for meat-saving,
and often money-saving, by the use
of colored beans, as against the stand
ard white navy and marrowfat varie-
ties. Housewives have Disseminated
against colored beans in the past on
the score of appearance. Dietetic tests
show that colored beans are equal to
white in food value, and in some
cases are from so to 40 per cent
cheaper.
The Mexican pinto beans, grown in
Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico,
is a representative example of color
ed bean subject to price ditferential
on appearance, 1t is named for its
dappled coat, like that of the western
pinto" pony. Our chances for raising
increased crops of beans for war food
purposes are said to be better in the
southwest, where the pinto bean is
grown, than in the white-bean grow
ing sections of the north and east.
Grocers can render real war service
by stocking colored beans, giving the
consumers the benefit of any differ
ence in price

language, is so completely essential
that 1t seems strange everyone does
not know how worth while acquiring
is mastery of English.
And, finally, there is a knowledge
and understanding of human nature.
This means you must study the per-
son to whom you are going to talk
and modify your conversation to suit
his attitude and interests.
Read Good Books.
By reading good books, by listening
to the conversation of your superiors,
and by attending critically to your
own talk you will find yourself grow
ing in ability to express yourself.
Never mind how difficult this task I
have set you sounds. You cannot have
a job half or even one-tenth as diff
cult as was that of Demosthenes, he
great Athenian orator.
Demosthenes suffered. and vet
he became an orator. He betook HIM
self to the seaside. Then he put small
pebbles in his mouth and with these
to force him to speak slowly and care
fully and to work over his enunciation,
he talked against the roll and boom
of the great waves. When he had
learned to bring out his voice so
sonorously that it drowned the sea
and to speak with such painstaking
precision that he could manage his
stammering tongue and the pebbles
upon it, Demostheres no longer slut
tered! And his fame as an orator has
come down the centuries.
Now, why should not you learn to
talk!

Just what do you mean by that
last statement, sir?"
Jones stopped and looked in amaze
ment at the customer he was trying
to interest in his course on Sales
manship." He had been halted in the
very midst of his sales-talk, the talk
he had learned so thoroughly that he
could recite it huently and with ora
torical impressiveness even while he
was thinking about his coal bill or his
need of new spring suit.
What do I mean?" asked Jones.
"Why, what I said, of course. 1t is
simple, in fact it is quite plain. All
life is game OF selling, and the ratio
of selling your goods to your prospect
is directly as your ability to sell your
own personality plus the merit of
your goods"
That is what you said before. What
do you mean by it," persisted the
customer.
Again Jones assured him that it
was all quite simple and that he meant
exactly what he said. And Jones does
not suspect that he failed to make
a sale because he had never learned
how to talk.
Not a Recital.
Talking is not matter of reciting
glibly a series of interesting state
ments. Talking is matter of pre-
senting your statements so they will

directing them.
When a man asks you to explain
and you assure him it is all quite
simple, you are inferring that he is
not wise enough to comprehend
plain statement of fact. And you
are antagonizing by your words in
stead of making friends through them.
Almost all business~is indeed a
matter of selling. And the most
potent selling force we have is our
ability to talk a customer into buy
ing. That means talk just enough to
sell him-not enough to bore himl
That means talk enough to awaken
his interest in your proposition and
not enough to overstate it and make
him feel that nothing could be as
wonderful as you claim your goods to
be- Talk enough to rouse curiosity
and provoke investigation not
enough to let your prospect go stale"
on the thing.
Hard Work.
Now, conversation-be it business
or social talk-does not come by the
grace of heaven! 1t results from hard
work from delevoping the gift of
gab."
To talk we'll, you must first of
all have pleasant voice that does not
rasp or irritate the person to whom it
is addressed.
Then you must have something in
teresting to talk about and a real
knowledge of the thing you wish to
present.
Furthermore, you must have words
in which to dress your subject wildly
and vitality. A knowledge of grammar
and of that fluent and charming thing,
