HOW DO YOU SAY IT?
By c. N. LURE
Common Errors in English and
How to Avoid Them !.
ITO ENJOY POOR HEALTH"

THIS is one Of the incorrect phrases
1 which have somehow crept into
common usage in the English language,
although moments thought will
show the speaker or writer that it is
absurd to say that person "enjoys"
poor health. ITO enjoy" means ITO
experience JOY or pleasure in; receive
pleasure from the possession or use
Of or participation in; delight in
(Standard Dictionary. Why, then,
should person say, Il have enjoyed
poor health during the past year,"
You can enjoy only that which brings
you pleasure or profit; and surely Ill
health brings neither.
OF course, it is quite proper to say,
Il have enjoyed good health" since
good health, being the greatest Of
human blessings, is to be appreciated
and enjoyed.
A similar error it to be ''agreeably"
disappointed. If you are disappointed,
the experience cannot be agreeable.

''CIvE SERVICE"

gardiess of faults" advised District
Governor Charles Taylor of Har-
risburg TO 200 Rotarians after the
J. dinner which was served at the In
ter-city picnic OF Rotary clubs al
the Watch Tower yesterday after
noon.
~To be of service to mankind Is
one of the greatest things man
can do in his lifework. A man
should believe in his own commun-
tty and render simple service or
otherwise get out. A man who
does not believe in America should
be some other place and would be
willing to put him on a steamer
and pay his fare half way across
the ocean and let him see how he
gets the rest of the way" he con-
tinued.
Rotary clubs have been in exist
ence only Is years and have spread
all over the world. The great work
that is being done is surprising for
such a youthful organization. The
club will never die out and will sur
vive in the years to come by the
simple service 1t renders to man
kind.
Boost your home industries and
home projects. / would rather tell
a lie and boost than to tell the
truth and knock. Two of the great
est and most dangerous sandbars
that will tend to ruin the course OF
the clubs are cheap politics and
carelessness and Indifference" he
concluded.
James Heron Speaks.
James Heron of New York City,
an unexpected but welcome guest,
gave a brief address. He said:
"The troubles bothering a majority
of the populace now are mostly
mental. The eastern states are
coming back in fine shape. They are
not buying in large quantities, but
they are buying.
Success in Rotary work will
only be realized by working. An
effort must be made to sell, even
yourselves. We must go after bust
ness, because 1t is not yet lost. The
United States today has the same
amount of buying power but it is
being stored up. The business Is
here and we must go get it,"

HY THIS SIMPLE METHOD

Blackheads - big ones or little

any part of the body, go quick by a
simple method that just dissolves
them. To do this get about two
ounces OF ca1onite powder from your
druggfst-sprinkle a little on a hot,
wet sponge-rub over the black
heads brfskly for a few seconds
and wash off. You'll wonder where
the blackheads have gone. The
calonite powder and the hot water
have just dissolved them. Pinching
and squeezing blackheads only open
the pores of the skin and leave them
open and unsightly-andu unless the
blackheads are big and soft they
VIII not come out. while the simple
application of calonite powder and
water dissolves them right out, leav-
ing. the skin soft and the pores in
their natural condition. You can get
calonite powder at any drug store

unsightly b1emishes you should GER

With the exception of United Drug

extended or that the bankers for the
