The Reward of Fighting

There are two things business men
can do in a time like this: They can
sit tight and take no chances; or they
can dig in and fight for business hard
err than ever.
And the rewards will go to those
who take the latter course.
A card in a window in Duluth reads
something like this:
Does hen stop scratching
when worms get scarce?
If she does she goes hungry
There's no doubt about that.
B. C. Forbes, in copyrighted article
in the Philadelphia Public Ledger, tells
a story that illustrates the right way
It is based on this statement: "The
National Cash Register company has
sold more cash registers during the
last six months than in any other half
year Of its history"
Naturally, it didn't do this by sit
ting tight and hanging on and waiting
till the clouds roll by. It did it by
hustling. Says Mr.. Forbes:
Of course, there are obstacles.
Of course, it is next to impossi-
BILE to accomplish big results dur
ing this deadlock. Capital and
credits are scarce. Interest rates
are onerous. Production costs
are high. Buyers are Indifferent
or worse. Competition is keen.
Most markets apparently are
over-supplied. -Pessimism has
taken possession Of nearly every
body. The prevailing tendency
is to wait for the deadlock to end
Most concerns selling product
of this kind would have simply
concluded that things were so bad
that there was no use trying to
force the pace in inducing merch-
ants and others to spend money.
But the National Cash Register
company didn't sit tight and hang on.
1t redoubled it's efforts all along the
line. It set high selling goals, backed
them up with studied effort, and made
them. Fourteen executives toured all
important centers in the eastern half
of this country and Canada, stirring
up local statesmen, showing them what
others were doing, filling them with
enthusiasm. The result was record
breaking business in time when most
concerns are simply hanging on by
their eye-teeth, scared half to death.
Mr. Forbes tells also of large con-
Germ manufacturing food products
which is coming through this dull
period with flying colors. But it
didn't quit. It intensified it's selling
campaign and advertised aggressive
ly. 1t is getting results.
If you get on thin piece of ice the
sensible thing is to keep on going,
and get over it as fast as you can.
If you stand still, you go through.
Those who come out of times like
this with banners flying are not those
who quit and sit and SILVER They
are those who hustle harder because
it takes more hustling to get bust

CANDIDATE GOT ONE VOTE
Humiliating Practical Joke Played on
italian Who Had Made Himself
Politically Unpopular.

Solicitor. Gandolf of Cremona,
Italy, besides being poet, is also a
bombastic meddler in political matters.
Because Of this it was arranged by
party Of jokers to bring him forward
as candidate for the polls. The elec-
toral committee was duly constituted
and Gandolfi's name was entered on
the government lists.
The unlucky solicitor was forced
during the fortnig hit to do his own can
vassing and to drive about from vii.
lage to village delivering speeches.
When election day came, no voting pa
pers having been distributed by the
committee for him, it was found that
the only vote he received was his
own. His discontinue may be mag
ined, but it is said that radical
cure for his political tendencies has
been found.
A still more unfortunate candidate
was communist in the same town
named Lodolini. After the commun-
lists had officially announced their in
tentions to carry him, the man disap-
peared. 1t was found that the Fas-
cisti had seized him at night time and
driven him to CasalmaggiOre, where
he was forced under the severest
threats to remain during election time.
Once Lodolini returned to Cremona
to see his wife, but the same night
the Fascist again entered the house

the rules for the Third Internationale.

Helen Keller Helen Keller, the De-
troit News recalls, was a normal child
until 10 months old. At that time q
serious. illness left her blind, deaf
and dumb. Even during these early
years in the dark she learned many
things through the sense of touch. Her
chief playmates were a little colored
girl and an old setter dog. -. m :

when teacher was found to UNDER
take what seemed an impossible task.
This teacher, Miss Anne Sullivan, be-
gan at once to talk into her little
pupils hand with. her fingers. The
first word Miss Sullivan spelled into
her hand was "doll";; the next word
was "cake." The words were quickly
spelled back, even before the little girl
knew what they meant. Very soon,
however, the spelled words with the
hand language We're connected: with
a real doll and real cake. Within q
month she knew thirty words and
could talk them back with her fingers.
AS soon as she grasped the. thought
that all objects have names she
learned very fast. Within three months
her vocabulary had increased to about
300 words, and within year to 800
words. She is now noted writer
