COURTESY IN BUSINESS
PAYS BIG DIVIDENDS.

Shrewd business men have come
to appreciate courtesy for its true
value as a business asset. They
know that a smile, Thank you,
sir" and a heartily-expressed
i"Come again." bring back more
customers than a page advertise
ment. Therefore, many employees
are courteous for the same reason
they wear clean linen and observe
the fire ordinances. It's one of the
rlHes.
True courtesy, however, cannot
be instillcd by hanging a neatly
framed sign in your place of bust
( ness. True courtesy-the genuine
desire to. be pleasant to others,
to help smooth the pathway of
those with whom you come in con-
tact-cannot be applied like a
police or injected like a serum.
1t can only come from within
from taking thought. Carelessness
and thoughtlessness are the great
foes of courtesy.
True courtesy cannot be con-
founded with obsequiousness,. The
sycophant with his polished man
ners is often less courteous than
the awkward pumpkin, All lies in
the motive.
Don't worry about what the
book says. Try to live practical
application of the Golden Rule.
Grin and don't shove. Put your
self in the other fellows place.
And you'll find that courtesy, like
another widely known business
aid, will absorb the shocks that
tire you out.

THOSE WHO WOULD
REGULATE LEGISLATION.

Wise old saws usually have a
firm foundation in fact. And such
sayings as murder will OUT and
truth is mighty and will prevail"
rooted in the experience of the
race, that, in the long run, the fact
triunrphs over the fancy, the
reality over the error, the right
over the wrong.
A number of very good but
somewhat narrow-visioned people
have been actively engaged for
some time in an attempt to regu-
late by legislation what parts of
scientific fact and theory shall and
shall not be taught in various
schools and collegesi The chief
offense, in the eyes of these dis
tressed people, is the conflict"
which they see between the teach
ings of science and the teachings
Of revealed religion. Note that
the conflict" is all of the max
ing of these who protest. Science
never has and probably never will
stage a conflict" with religion.
A we'll known presidential can
d.date and lecturer has taken it
upon himself to spouse the cause
Of those who fight the teachings
Of science. IN a recent address to
the West Virginia Legislature he
advocated legislation to prevent
the teaching of "Darwinism, or
any hypothesis that there is
blood relationship between man
and the animals"
Contrast this voice crying in a
wilderness to that Of recent
church conference, which went on
record as entirely unsympathe-
tic with that standpoint which
ignores the fruit of modern knowl-
edge and scientific research"
One is reminded of Calico and
those who called him a hereto!
But religion lives in spite of the
universal belief now, in what was
then considered theory at ODDS
with religion, that the earth is
round! The very names of those
who criticized Calico are forgot
en-, but his name will forever be
revered.
VIII it be Darwin's name or the
names of those who try to legislate
his truths out of existence, who
will be remembered few hundred
years hence?
