MANY SHOPPERS
HERE YESTERDAY
Merchants Report an Immense
Business and, Like Every
Year, Many Put Off Their
Buying Till Very Last Minute

There is not merchant or a clerk
in Brunswick who is not real tired
this morning because they all worked
like Trojans from the minute their
establishments were opened early yes
terday morning until midnight last
night and vehicles of all kinds will be
around this morning delivering as
early as possible the purchases of
those who waited until the last min
ute tc buy.
There was never such a large MIN
Der of out-of-town shoppers as was the
case yesterday. While merchants re-
ported good sales all the week to
BrunswicIts country friends and GUS
toners, yesterday was the banner day
and every train leaving carried pur
chasers with any and all kinds of ar.
ticles, as the seats of the ears were
piled high with any and everything
imaginable, from the little toy to an
expensive taking machine.
This season the people have bought
useful articles more generally than
ever before and all who came here
from the country districts have been
pleased with the treatment they re-
ceiyed at the hands of the merchants
and the people OF the city generally.
One thing seems to be absolutely
certain the people of this community
seem determined to stand together
and work in harmony for the good
of the entire section and with many
projects alread IN the making, great
will be 1922.

was 50 that he might determine per-
sOnally the uses to which IL will be
put And he has just one general rule
he helps those who help them
selves.
"Self- help-that is the keynote. I
can give you two instances that per
fectly illustrate his point OF view.
Some time ago he urged the EN-
ployees OF the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit Company to form a welfare
association which would pay sick
and death benefits and pensions.
" For every dollar YOU men put
into the welfare association, III nut
in dollar he said.
He did exactly that. Then there
came n meeting OF the association
at which IL was brought out that
q5 per cent. OF the company's en-
ployees had Joined. In short tnat
large number OF mon had shown
their willingness 20 help themselves.
What did Mr. Mitten do neKt7 From
row on he said. I will put in g.
for every 81 contributed by the mtn.'
And he's done it,"
This welfare association paid, dur
ing the year Of 1920, 1lS death bene-
fits OF $1,000 each and $52, 2,3S7.25 In
pensions, besides large sums in sick
benefits. Yet at the beginning of
the year. the surplus was only f23,-
365. .32, while at the end of 1920 II
had Increased to $3.50, 1905.
Then here's another instance OF
how Mr. Mitten feels about giving"
his friend continued. The company
has a fine band OF 100 pieces. When
II was being organized, somebody
went to Mr.. Mitten and asked him
II he'd buy the Instruments.
WILLING TO HELP THOSE WHO
HELP THEMSELVES.
"'No" said the Chief (Thats what
they like to call him). Unless the men

ments, they'll make band WORTH

. "The men have done exactly that"
added my informant, "and now, be-
fore long you'll see Mr. Mitten doing
something for them.
"He wants to use his money TO
help the other fellow along, but
not TO do his work for him. He
wants TO make better men, better
American. He himself was the
son OF immigrant parents, and
began Iife as a laboring man. He
never has lost his understanding
Of the man who works with his
hands-juat as his own hands
show day, that they are the
hands Of a worker"
Il Is not denied that Mr.. Mitten, at
forty, was worth a million and more.
In his friends words. "he knew that
he had all he could possibly need to
supply his wants, even though some
thing might happen to prevent his
working. SO. since that time, he has
lived on the income from his accumu-
lated wealth ana mas given away
every dollar earned.
"IIe lives well, but simply. He has
his living apartment on the same floor
with his offices, and he has a farm.
He rides and exercises enough to keep
in splendid physical condition. But he
eats the simplest food, retires early
and is often at work at his desk by
4 in the morning. He never has
made a hobby of collecting pictures
or other objects of art. He is more
interested in human beings.
when he says, as he did the other
night, that a great amount Of money
is a. hurtfui influence, he Is thinking
of il as a wall between the posSessor
and the rest of the world. He thinks
that the man who piles up a huge
fortune for it's own sake, or for the
personal satisfactions It brings him,
is utterly selfish. After all, he can't
eat more than one dinner at once or
wear more than one pair Of shoes at
once, T live in more than one house
at the same time,

Philadelphia Public Service employ

his personal benefactions-he hates
even the word, and would not want
you to use 1t.

feels, too, that the wealth he ac-
uuires is due not merely TO luck
and his own talents, but 20 Amer

From a close friend OF many years
standing, however. I did at last ex-
tract Thomas T. Mitten's philosophy
OF giving. The actual phrase used in
my question was: What is Mr.. Nit

The answer came sharply.
"Phiianthropy-heH!"
Just like that.
Don't call Il philanthropy"
Mr.. Mitten's friend continued in
somewhat n1ildor accents. "Mr
Mitten hates the word-hates the
implications Of charity. He un-
derstands that Il may be neees-

But he intensely disIikes the
