THE SALESMAN

IF salesman is lukewarm when he boosts the
! goods he sells, you will see his form wear
ing handsome silver bells. Now and then languld
guy comes to sell me books or trees or strip OF
azure sky or a swarm of humble bees. But his com
ing is in vain, for his manners don't convince; and
/ tell him, speaking plain, he's lemon or ounce.
Then there comes a sprightly skate who is brim-
ming Ger with zeal; he will burble and crate and
put up a noble spiel This enthusiastic gink this
inspired and gaudy jay, ere he's finished, makes
me think that his goods are all O. K. He is talking
through his fez, dealing bunk later guess, but
believes in what he says-thats the secret of sue
cess. So buy his duplex chairs, large revolv-
ing churn, or a span of polar bears, lamp that
will not burn If salesman cannot talk in fine
imprisoned vein of his tall self-wnding clock
or his patent logging chain, if he cannot make us
think that his wares all sky high, he had better
take drink of formaldehyde and die. Earnestness
man must have if as salesman he would win,
whether he is peddling salve auto built of tin

His Native City Mourns

New York, Jan. S.-While the
whole nation was mourning the
passing OF former President Roose-
welt, this city. in which he was born
and to whose citizens he was per-
haps most personally familiar, paid
tribute to his memory as his body
was being laid to rest.
Old Trinity's chimes began the
funeral toll and as the sound was
waited upon the air, the bell in the
cupola OF New Nork's historic city
hall merged its mournful cadence
with that OF Trinity and hundreds
OF other churches in the upper and
lower reaches of Manhattan-a last
token of affection for all that was
mortal OF a great American.
Precisely at l;59 p. m, for one
minute, virtually every phase Of in
dustry in Greater New York stopped
including wires Of the Associated
Press. In the morning 100000 public
school children held exercises in
which the life OF Colonel Roosevelt
and his ideals Of Americanism we're
the subject OF essays and addresses.
In the afternoon all the schools
were closed.
Street traffic virtually was sus-
pended when $1,000 New York po-
licemen at the moment OF burial
doifed their caps in memory Of the
man who, a quarter OF a century be-
lore, had brought the police depart
ment to marvellous efficiency.
The New York Stock Exchange,
coffee, produce, cotton and other
commercial bodies, were closed.

Swimming Records
May Fall This Winter

The indoor swimming season. just
opens with exceptionally bright pros
poets. Water sports have grown popu-
lar lately in several districts which had
virtually no aquatic activities year
ago.
A number of new pools are now avail
able for meets and exhibitions. Contes-
tants OF both sexes have multiplied.
Among the younger element, in particu-
lar. great progress has been made and
quite few youths ano maids are likely
TO be added to the candidates for dis.
trict and national championship laurels
by tho time the title tests come up for
decision.
Above all. the coming of the Olympic
games at Antwerp next summer makes
II certain that our leading men and girl
stars will put forth their best efforts
during the intervening months In the
hope of landing places on the teams
which It Ia proposed to send to repre-
sent this country at the international
fixture.
Under the circumstances there Is as
surance OF the finest competition in the
history Of American swimming and a
bountlful crop of national and worlds
records. Among the potential iconoclasts
are long string OF topnotchers who
have already displayed record breaking
ability, including Norman Ross. Perry
MoGlllivray. Bud Wallen, Michael Nc
Dermott Tedford Cam. Leo Giebel, Her
bert Vollmer. Harold Kruger. Leo
Handy, George Cunha, the Misses Char
otte Boyle. Ethelda Bleibtrey. Ruth and
Eleanor Smith, Frances Schroth. Doro-
thy Burns. Marie Curtis, Helen Thorn
sen. Bessie Ryan. Betty Grimes and
others. II will be surprising II most Of
the standards for pool swimming are not
wiped or the board before the present
season draws to an end.
