In this nationwide debate George Washington
has received many an eloquent appreciation. One
OF the finest was contained In an address by Sen

BUSINESS CHANGES.
Pointed Out by John X. Gregg and Harry
c. Spillman at Goldey Cole ge.

The students of Goldey College listene d
attentively to admirable addresses yes
terday afternoon by John X. Gregg.
president of the Gregg Publishing Co.
and author of Gregg Shorthand, and
Harry c. Spillman, school manager for
the Remington Typewriter Co, both
of New York City.
Mr.. Gregg called the students atten-
tion to their fine opportunities for gain
ing a commercial training. He stated that
his early business life was handicapped
considerably because of lack OF such
preparation. Even today, he would be able
to save considerable money each year if
he were well informed In bookkeeping,
considering a commercial education one
of the best assets young man or young
woman can possess. The necessity for
quick, sure and accurate work is most
acute. Study your own weaknesses and
learn to overcome them. Don't waste
time, energy or thought"
Mr. Spillman endorsed the excellent
advice given by Mr.. Gregg. He referred
TO the many times he had observed young
people fail in business life on account of
wasted effort and time. Mr.. Spillman
stated that never before In the history of
the world have such wonderful opportuni-
ties been opened TO young men and young
women possessing the right qualifications
He advised the students to fit themselves
to do high-grade work so that they may
win positions that the world is crying to
have filled. Mr.. Spillman pointed out the
danger of young people overlooking val
liable opportunities In their own localities
because of their desire To work in large
cities. In his Judgment such places arc
more interesting at distance than when
YOU have to live in them.

opponents OF suffrage. One of the national
lobby for suffrage who smoke ut the st
Georges meeting went TO Mr.. Lester after
the meeting and said be should not mind
what another suffragist-a Wilmington
speaker had said and done.
We'll, you folks have me guessing,
replied Mr.. Lester. "You tell us that we
should believe everything you say-well
how about the insults are we to believe
that you mean them too2"
The anti-suffragists are arranging for
other meetings down State. There will
be one at Smyrna and another at Middle
town, dates that have not been decided
upon.
As a means of distributing literature an ]
signing up members, the opponents OF
suffrage have opend booth in the lobby
OF the Hotel du Pont. This is manned each
day by workers against suffrage and the
booth generally is under the direction OF

com Club at Hotel du Pont

the members the value of thei r keeping IN
touch with the affairs of the city and
state, telling them that they were the
men and women of tomorrow and it was
their business to maintain the standards
set for them.
A sketch of the history of shorthand
was given the members by John h. Gregg,
the originator of Gregg shorthand, from
the time early in history before Christ
until the time it was inroduced into
this country. He then told of its history
in this country and how he became
interested in it.
He recuntered his failure in school life
and how his friends had said there was no
hope for him. Mr.. Gregg said that nc had
stuck to the study of the work and
learned the several systems prevalent
at that time Later it became q hobby.
Finally he organized a series of lessons OF
his own, the first of which was published
when he was 20 years of age. He said
that il was = hard struggle because the
people did not take any interest IN the
new method for writing quicker, but
finally he was successful. In closing, MIR.
Gregg expressed his gratitude to MIR. and
Mrs Beacnm DlOneers in the work
for the part they took in upholding and
teaching the system.
At the close of Mr.. Gregg's address,
Harry G. SpilIman, of the Re mington
typewriter Co, gave the audience an
interesting talk on the subject of Per-
sonality. lie included in his speech
the comparison between physiology and
phsycology. He said it was the Il ann
facts of life around which personality
centres itself. Personality gains friends
and Mr.. Spillman said that Mr. Greggs
secret of success was that he is product
Of his friends.

Being Heckled.

According to MIR. Testers neighbors
and friends, this Representative from New

NO DIRAGRAM NECESSARY

Factionists are deploring the fact that a large
mercantile firm and large bank of Nogales do not
desire member OF either institution on the ctv
council. No.f what will the radicals bark about
Daily Herald.
NO d1agrafn is necessary to determine what large
mercantile concern and what large bank are meant
in the clipping from the Herald.
But why are that large bank and that large mer-
camille firm so moderate now? Except in the pre-
sent council neither that large mercantile firm nor
that large bank has been without representation I'D
on the municipal governing body. And in most ml-
nelpaE councils the two concerns combined had do
minated the city government Upon the council pre-
ceding that now serving they had two representa-
tves OF the bank and two representatives Of the mer
camille firm while one of the latter was director in
the bank also; and behind that another councilman
was affiliated with them, having been an employee of
the mercantile firm.
1t was very similar in preceding councils. There
may have been some councils they did not dominate
but The Oasis" cannot recall more than one. They
had representation the council which let the con-
tract to Harms Brothers to build the municipal water
plant the Santa Cruz and to lay the pipe connect
ing withthe system in town and that Harms Brothers
secured that contract shocking surprise to the
large mercantile firm meant by the Herald. It is
very interesting story, and when "The Oasis edit

PRINT PAPER

The shortage of paper makes publishers weep;
and the prices they caper still higher each week.
Thepubishers Logging around in the mart; the pub
fishers begging, with aches in his heart; for paper
imploring, he's down ON his knees; and prices are
soaring like kites in the breeze. And Uncle Sans
printers use paper junk; through summers and
winters the documents punk that no one confesses
to reading, | wot come forth from the presses as
mountains Of rot Oh, Uncle Sans spelling the
paper need for news hot and boiling the stuff
would read. He's blowing the Doodle on volumes of
slush, on endless flapoodle that's not worth rush.
His Easements are crowded-admit it he must-with
printed stuff shrouded in cobwebs and dust. Gre
ports and such litter there by the stack; makes
man bitter, sends pains up his baik. And new
stacks are added to them every day-big tones that
are padded with buncombe and whey. His presses
are creaking they groan and complain, with pub
fishers shrieking for paper in vain.
