DON'T BE A GLOOMY GUS

We think it is up to every
business man-and who Is not
n business man in go"G pid
America to strike Il h"rci9'
keynote in his advertising.
We say this to our local men
of business, to our farmers, too,
and to every man who sells
what he has, even it all he has
is his daily labor.
Because there has been a
slump on the price Of this, that
or the other community, It l.
the poorest reason III the world
for talking hard times. Pes
simism never won anything.
Gloom is a thing of the grave;
it is not for the living man
with a future before him.
The times may have been
bad for a lot of US for some
months past, but as everything
changes, going from one eX-
treme to the other and striking
normally in between, we all
know that there are good times
ahead-and not very far ahead
either if we all put the best foot
forward and the best smile 10
the front.
The man who RECEIVERS first
from the gloom of his bad bus
mess, or poor wages, or what
ever it was that hit him, is the
man who is going to have the
most prosperity in the better
times, that are on the way, that
are d b their way just as sure
as thu sun comes up and out Of
the east every morning. He is
going to have the most pros
perity because his effort will
stretch him over larger per
iod than the fellow who
:slouches gloomily until the
good times are so apparent
that they hit him in the nose.
Therefore, we say to the bus
mess man who advertises: Put
optisism in your ads. To the
farmer and other workers
whose tongues are their ads
We say: Talk good times; they
are coming and soon.

OTHER PEOPLES BUSI-
NESS.

Taking exceptions to the
way other people run their
business is a favorite pastime
of tibet American people, and
quite d fe owl that kind of
Americans make their home in
and around Abbeville. Not
that this community is differ
ent from any other, for it isn't
in this respect. But just as
charity should begin at home
so should the work of elimin-
ating criticism Of others start
at home.
1t seems to be human nature
for a fellow to think he could
run aonther fellows business
better than il is being run.
Take, for example, the newspa-
per. You wouldn't run the
paper the way we do, would
YOU! Of course not. Possibly
You could do ii lot better. bat
this much we Kmow-vou
would not run it the way YOU
think you would. No man ever
ran a newspaper or any other
business just exactly as he
would like to do. There is a
desire on the part of every edi-
tor to please everybody-but
he soon learns it can't he done.
He starts in determined to
print everyitem OF news that
comes up, and pretty soon he
learns that het eau save a lot
of sorrow and unhappiness by
leaving out some Few items
that occasionally come up.
Again there are times when he
must publish a story, even
though it hurts some Of his
best friends. If q certain item,
ices appear il makes some
people mad, and if it is left out
Others are mad ebcause il was
not printed.
SO TIE newspaper is critics
ed either way it turns, despite
the fact that the editor would
like to please everybody. The
same is true of the conduct of
every other business. You
might run it differently from

THE BLUE LAWS"
There's a great deal of space

There's a great deal of space
being devoted in newspapers
and magazines these days to a
discussion of this cOuntry's
possible return to the old "blue
laws" Of Pilgrim days, and
since the matter has become ma
tional in its scope naturally
citizens Of Abbeville are taking
their share of interest in the
discussion.
Out Of Washington comes a
report that the Lords Day AL
lance proposes to stop every
thing on Sunday which in
wolves any kind of manual
labor. That would mean all
trains would stop, milk could
not be delivered, Sunday pa
pers would have to suspend;
drug stores and ice cream par
lors would keep their doors
locked and auto pleasure rid
ing would cease. Not II gallon
OF 2asoline-Or anything else
could be sold on Sunday. At
the same time there comes a
denial of this, a high official of
the League declaring that if is
proposed only to stop every
thing which borders on com.
mercialiSm. There could be
ball games, if no admission was
charged, and autos could run
provided it was in order to get
their owners and their families
to and from chm Gil.
We do not believe there is a
more law-abiding community
IN all the land than the one in
Which this paper is printed and
circulated. And we do not
want to see Sunday CONNER
clalized to the extent that if
will mean only a money-grab-
n'ng day. uBt We do feel that
eur citizens are entitled ia the
fresh air and exercise and such
innocent pleasure as they feel
is best for them after six DAYS
of labor. And any attempt to
leglslate them into being anv
better than they are Is going 70
meet with a hearty protest
