PLAYRIGHTS' Spirits"

Modern authors and piaywrlghts were

Reality" by Miss Agnes Repplier, at the
New Century Club yesterday afternoon.
The famous essat ttst's lecture abound
ed in smooth-1owing. musical Eng
lish, and dry humor Of an original turn.
Miss Reppller asserted that the
'realist" school Of writers IS untrue 70
reality by giving the impression that
generous deeds and noble ideals are IL
lusiOns, while only that which Is sor-
did IN human nature is real. On the
other hand, she claimed that the rO-
mantle writers carried emotional writ
ing 70 an extreme which resulted in
sickly sentimentallty. Miss Repplier de-
clared that no other country would
stand for the inferior plays that are
flooding the Americsn stage. The aver
age play, she said, now on the stage,
violates not only the probabilities but
even the possibilities.
IN an arraignment OF spirituallsm,
Miss Repplier spoke OF the low order Of
mentality shown by the w0uld-be spir-

Practical Advice From
c. c. Gerow
SERIES OF MONTHLY
MEETINGS PLANNED

The Hercules Club OF Wilmington,
composed OF the home oflce members
OF the Hercules Powder Company. held
It's first evening meeting Of the year,
under the auspices Of tae organize
tion's educational committee, at the
Parish Hall. Trinity Church. on Wee
nesday evening.
! About one hundred members were
present A feature was an address by
e. c. Gerow, sales manager OF the COM
pany, on the relationship between the
sales and other departments OF ge
company. Mr.. Gerow. after referring
briefly 70 the nature OF the Sales Dc
psrtments work, spoke as follows:
Let met at this point say that one
or the most important things In our
work Is our conduct. Our customers
do not see the Hercules Company as
a concrete thing. They know II only
as an organization that makes good
products and renders certain service.
II, however, we do not reflect the
character Of our organization on the
trade, all that we can do in the manu-
facture OF quality-1rst goods and all
our efforts along the lines OF giving
service are, In a measure, wasted be-
cause our conduct toward those with
whom we come In contact In many
cases is a deciding factor.
The company's good viii Is one OF
the sales departments most valuable
assets. The degree to which It exists
anects not only our volume OF busl-
ness but the ease with which we can
secure 1t. Not only is it necessary for
our salesmen 10 create and maintain a
good impression with our customers.
but our advertising department IS ever
alert TO create on the general public,
thst Is, In the minds Of every man,
woman and child in the United States.
mat the Hercules Powder Company is
an Institution that Is vital 10 the hap
piness OF all Of them; that they owe
many or their necessities, comforts and
luxuries TO the goods that we produce
and therefore, we have some claim on
everyone's interest and consideration.
Mr. Gerow's address was followed by
a general discussion. Judge G.. G. Rheu-
by, chief counsel Of the company. pre-
sided. short speeches were made by
]. T. Skelly, vice-presldent in charge
of sales, and @. H. Markell, general
manager. A feature OF the meeting was
the distribution OF Missouri Meer-
schaum" pipes and tobacco.
These evening meetings are in add
tlon TO the monthly luncheons given by
the club. Il Is planned to have nine or
ten Of them during the year, and speak
ers will be obtained who will discuss
subjects Of paramount interest 10 the
Hercules organization.
