Reason Why One Man Has Always
Sought to Add 60 His Aequ$tnt-
anees Every Day.

Ny hobby is enlarging my acQuaint-
ance. For years have found pleas
, ure and profit In trying to know as
many people as can. aim never to
let the sun set without knowing at
least one more person than I did when
I started out In the morning, writes
Fred O. Kelly In Leslie's. Why7 Ny
answer is: Why not? Life is made up
Of human relations. AS I look at 1t
the more human contact achieve the
fuller my life should be. BY human
contact I don't mean just being in
crowds, or places where people are. I
mean meeting people, getting their
points Of view. Lots OF city folk who
have plenty Of daily opportunity to
meet and know people don't get &C.
quainted with as many as man I
know who lives on farm and never
comes to town. Meeting people is one
thing, making friends or getting &C.
Quainted with them is another. Inas-
much as human beings are admittedly
the most interesting things on earth,
why not know as many Of them as pos
sible? If there are men who derive
pleasure from collecting stamps, rare
coins. canes, love letters, dogs, why
shouldn't give little serious thought
TO collecting long list or friends7
And If I am more successful bust

many friends all the better for me.

telling when the humblest person
among your acquaintance may not
have momentary Importance in some
thing you are trying to do. I once
was able to get information that
meant successful contract through
the fact that I CHANGED to be acquaint-
ed with the fireman In one Of the no.

Now there are two ways Of getting
acquainted with peoTte-by introduc'
ton and by getting Ato casual con-
versation without introduction. I try
to make the most Of both these ave-
nues, but regard the former as the
more important Of the two. a

True Story OF "RevOIt" Which
Never Happened.

Washington, July 20, 1921.-A few
days ago a number of new Republi.
can members Of the House called a
meeting for social purposes,-a "get
together and get acquainted" affair
About the same time Representative
Ansorge, of New York, issued a state
ment urging haste in tariff legisla-
tion. Mr. Ansorge was also one of
the new members calling the meeting
referred to. The Democratic propa-
ganda agencies seized upon these two
events to write story to the effect
that Representative Ansorge and his
associates were ain a state of revolt"
against the Republican House or
ganiZation and leaders.
As matter of record, the guest of
honor of the meeting was Floor
Leader Mondell. During the pre-
liminaries of the meeting Represen-
tative Ansorge, and others issuing
the call, expressed regret that the
purposes of the meeting had been
misunderstood and misrepresented
Representative Mondell addressed the
meeting, and his address was fire.
quently interrupted by applause.
Twice, as he was about to stop, those
present urged him to continue. At
the close of his address many in
dividual expressions were given, APP
proving the legislative program as
outlined by Mr. Mondell and the
manner in which it was being han
died A rising vote of thanks was
rendered Mr. Mondell, to which was
added, because of the erroneous
stories which had been circulated re-
garding the purposes of the meeting,
a unanimous vote of confidence in
him and the House organization.
