Mark Twain had become world fam

ABICJ JOB

This is addressed to the man with a good job.
AT night you go home from your labors, eat a good supper, get
out the slippers and the old pipe well caked up with age, read your
paper or a good book, o enjoy a little walk with the wife and
Riddles.
Nothing to worry about until tomorrow. The job will last, next
year and the next. You'll always make enough to keep a comfort
able home, and be able to enjoy the COMPROMISING of your family in
the evening. .1.;t -. .t
But there is another man in the town who cannot always feel
SO free and easy in the evening. He is our local merchant. For this
may be a backward season. The merchandise he has bought is not
moving. He may stand to lose a lot OF money, for prices have all
come down since he has made his purchases, or the big stock of
overcoats o womens sweaters, or of shoes have suddenly gone
out of style.
Nothing to do but sacrifice, sell below cost, and avoid the loss
of money IS much as possible. 1t is not al easy pleasant evening
with him. 1t is an evening filed with worry Perhaps he has to re-
turn to the store and worry through his troubles.
He has to buy from all corners of the earth today, because his
public demands the best merchandise at the lowest possible prices.
1t is a big job. 1t calls for a lot of courage sometimes. 1t requires
an infinite amount of study to learn just what people will want
next season.
And the future is always uncertain. He may make money one
year and lose it all the next. This task Of supplying the public
with the things it wants from all corners of the globe is not all a
bed OF roses. OF course he makes his mistakes-he is just human.
And then the public complains, and threatens to buy out of town. OF
course he is sometimes overcharged by the man that he buys from,
and then the public blames him for trying to make too much money.
But he fights it through to the end. Backs up every baseball
team, every basket ball team, supports the community affairs, al
ways ready with a donation when the town needs something.
He keeps the town Of the map. Keeps the public supplied with
the necessities and comforts it needs. And greets you with a smile
when you enter his place, even though he may have a thousand
things to worry about.
After all, he's a pretty good fellow, isn't her

THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS

In overriding President Coolidges veto of the Soldiers Bonus
Bill, Congress merely continued the policy which it has followed
right along
as rather mildly in favor of the United States entrance into the
World Court. Congress sheved the proposal and now Senator
Lodge has introduced a bill creating a world court of his own, which
is generally considered more of an election scheme than a serious
plan.
The President has fought for the Mellon plan of tax reduction,
but Congress has preferred a bill. prepared by the Democrats and
there is no hklyhood that the Mellon plan will be adopted. The
prospect is that the President will veto whatever plan Congress
adopts, as unsatfactory, and that Congress will pass it over his veto.
The President urged the continuance of the Railroad Labor
Board, and Congress has spent months discussing whether o r not
to abolish the board.
The President asked for time to make diplomatic arrangements
passed an immigration bill, and the House refused to acede to his
request for time.
The President advocated farm relief, but although Congress had
been discussing this for weeks, the probability is that whatever
legislation it adopts will not be according to his ideas.
The President urged a n amendment to the Constitution giving
congress power to regulate or prohibit child labor. A bill to this
end has been passed by the House but the Senate apparently does
not intend to act on it this session.
The President advocated farm relief through Muscle Shoals,
but Congress has its own ideas about this and since the oil scandal
1t is determined to take plenty of time before acting.
The President asked for antilynchng legislation, but Congress
is not likely to do anything about this.
The country, therefore, faces the strange situation in which a
President whose recommendations have practically all been i-
nored or set aside, is already assured of being nominated for a
second term,
