UTILIZING BARRIERS TALK

M AN is said to be a social animal,
AVA enjoying the company and con-
versation of his fellow. But although
most men can talk, not all are talka-
tive. Between strangers the conver-
sation often lags. With BARRIERS it is
different, their loquacity being pro-
verbal and their talkativeness con-
tagious Some BARRIERS can make the
most reticent shavee talk, and the re-
suit is discussion of some sort. The
barber draws out his patron, espec-
tally if he is stranger in the place,
and incidentally passes on to him his
own views on politics, religion, the
liquor situation and anything and ev-
erything else that will make talk.
Community news gravitates to the
barber shop as readily as water flows
down hill, and the tonsorial parlor
becomes a center Of information and
comment. Barber shop discussion is
of the most free-for-all character
with no limitation as to the subject
and no handicaps as to time. In q

There vere, of course, many 'curi7ts

ranging from ten to fourteen inches
in length. In each of two casts, he
brought out two. Standing on the

land them in the frying pan
But the trout were not the only

Observation-Disclosures.

Carl Behn, clever student of adver-
tising, keeps posted not only on mod
ern merchandise and merchandising
methods, but also reads classic liter
ature, and recently began the study
of Longfellow's poem, "Hiawatha" He
was asked by a group of diners at
the Harvey House the other evening
to repeat some of the poem, and he
did, but during the day had been read
ing the advertising columns and his
rendition was as follows:
In the land of Arrow Collars,
BY the valley of Corona,
Where the lover of Instant Postum.
Met his sweetheart, Cutie Cura.
By the mountains of Fels Naptha.
Dwelt they then with Aunt Jemima.
Mother of Cutie Cura,
On the shore Of Eucalyptol,
Hard unto the Liquid Tar Soap,
Aunt Jemima with her Kodak,
Stood and pointed to the Crisco.
"Yonder dwells the Locomobile
In the forest of O'Cedar
He it is who killed Van Heusen,
Slew him with his Kuppenheimer,"
Boldly then the Instant Postum
Seized his trusty BifIex Bumper,
Gave his bride one last fond Dier
Kiss,
Kissed her on the Coco Cola.
81 am going, Cutie Cura,
On a long and distant journey
Where the names of Skinner Satin
And Palm Olive are not spoken.
Guard you we'll our daughter, Jello,
And our last born baby, New Skin"
Then he launched his craft for sailing
On the shining Pluto Water.

very real sense it is a community
forum, where the common people
speak their minds. While too much
Importance is not to be attached to
discussions of this sort, they have
possibilities not to be ignored, for
what passes as the common knowl
edge of the average citizen is a hodge
podge derived from many sources.
In these days of propaganda it was
to be expected that somebody would
conceive the idea of directing bar
bers' talk into productive channels.
Even those who reckon barber shop
talks at low value, because of the
jibes of the funny papers, will see
will see that utilizing the opportun-
tiles of the barber shops for dissem-
ination of profitable discussion, is Of
great promise.
The barber, like the hotel man,
comes into contact with strangers Wis
iting the community, and he may give
to the visitors good or bad opinions
of the place The idea, therefore, of
getting the barber on the right side
of community matters is good in that
it is designed to make a favorable
impression upon the strangers within
the gates. Community building must
be founded of course in the good opin-
ion of the citizens themselves. They
must have faith in their community;
they must be jealous of it's good name,
loyal to its institutions and it's aims.
Some folks will say of their COM
munity what they would be loath to
say of their worst enemy, not realiz-
ing that in damning their home town
they are damning themselves also,
for town is what the citizens make
it. 1t is a good start in community
uphuilding to get all the folks, in
Guiding those in the barber shops, to
thinking and speaking we'll of their
town The idea is so good that it
should be used generally.

THE IDEAL NEWSPAPER

THE first conclusion at which one
- arrives in the consideration of the
ideal newspaper is hat there is no
such animal
No newspaper can be ideal when it
ideal newspaper is that there is no
moral in our imperfect life. The por-
trayal of crime in detail, the obse-
quious Difference to virtue in the con-
vict the labored effort to bring out
intimate facts that have no bearing
on the crime-none of these are ideal
and they all contribute to that GER
tain psychology which leads to moral
delinquency and crime. The country
newspaper is singularly free from this
morbid and unworthy attitude. 1t is,
on the whole, admirably clean. 1t
rarely invades the privacy of the in
dividual or the sanctity Of the home.
The metropolitan press is growing
more and more away from those high
ideals Of newspapering handed down
as legacies from the distinguished
gentlemen of old-school journalism.
That the people are growing rest
less under this unremitting breach of
ordinary decencies affected by met
ropolitan journalism is evident by
the lack of confidence in it's leader
ship and disregard for it's teachings.
1t has become common saying that
the support of certain newspapers is
no longer an asset but liability, and
that the defeat of candidate is rem
dered almost a certainty when GER
tain metropolitan papers that we all
know espouse his cause. Sometimes
the country press has been known to
save a candidate from defeat when
laboring under the handicap of met
ropolitan support. The country pa
pers are less guilty of writing under
dictation, insulting the pl oprieties,
and in general defying the ordinary
amenities of life, by featuring those
uplift or betterment of the human
race Better thousand times coun-
try editor with ideals, lifting his COM
munity by sheer force Of character to
a better life, higher moral plane
a richer experience, than to exploit
divorces, revel in crime details, color
news with propaganda, and in general
assault those ideals of journalism that
make a better individual life and q
more harmonious community.

LEARNING A TRADE
nothing.

ITO THE young man who looks for
II ward to mastering trade it can
be suggested that the heads of indus
trial enterprises are nearly all men
who started at the bottom of the lad
der and know the details of the bust
ness from it's foundation. Every sue
cessful contractor has probably
worked at the bench as carpenter
or with the trowel as a bricklayer. In
this democratic country the man
working at a trade is eligible to the
highest positions of trust and honor
The so-called white collar jobs"
often keep man tied to minor
desk all his life while the young fell
low who has mastered a trade rises
above him into a position of indepen-
dence The workers who use their
hands are also allowed to use their
heads, in America, and the combina-
ton brings success and often fame to
the ambitious and enterprising.

that altitude. Here and there were
patches of snow in early June with
broader fields of it about the base of
Old Baldy up whose slope the winter
was still singing.
At the edges of the smaller snow
fields father down the verdure was
asserting itself Almost from, the
edges of snow patches of flowers of
marvellous coloring were struggling
forth. Farther down the floor was
carpeted with flowers. The tourists

home 81 varieties, which happens to
be exactly the same number of varie-
ties of pickles Mr.. Heinz has devised
for giving zest to the human appe-
tite.
A week in the White mountains
amounts to a recreation, a re-incar-
nation. At the end of the week the
world which the visitor has so lately
left, seems like a dream, far away,
vague and unreal. He is doubtful
whether he can find his way back to
it again, and whether he could live in
it if he should find it.
But when he does come he comes
strengthened and refreshed, ready for
another grind, at the end of which he
hopes to fird himself again in the
White mountains.-Ar Republi-

THE VALUE OF COURTESY

THERE are certain things that cost
l. nothing and yet yield greater div
idends than the highest and most de-
sirable securities on the market
Among the most profitable of these
is courtesy.
A smile, a cheerful greeting, a
pleasant word or two, a willingness
to please, sunny disposition, all
help to strengthen the bonds of friend
ship between merchant and customer
The business world mas no place
for a crouch or person of sour dis
position So far as intelligence is
concerned he may be superior, but if
he has not learned the value of cour-
tesy his future in the commercial
world is not very promising.
Many business men who find their
trade slipping away from them fail
to understand why. Their merchan-
disc is the very best, their prices are
reasonable, and yet the trade pre-
fers to patronize their competitors.
Very often the remedy lies with the
merchant himself. A little courtesy
handed out to customers when they
enter the store will keep them COM
ing back for more.
And the beauty of it is that it costs
nothing.

THE COWBOYS REUNION

T Asst Friday was a big day for
~ Winslow The city entertained the
biggest crowd ever gathered here
Everybody was well pleased and sat
isfied with the day No ill-feeling was
engendered, and no one made a com
plant of things lacking.
Such clean, sportsmaa-iko celeEra-
tions are all too rare. The cowboys
reunion in Winslow is to become an
annual occasion under the auspices
of the American Leg:cr, and no doubt
will continue to remain a clean con-
test of skill and scientific applica-
tion of principles ard practices of the
cowboys daily labor. That the con-
tests are spectacular, and IN a meas
ure thrilling, tends to draw t. mense
crowds to rodeos and cowboy gather
ings.
Winslow, unfortunately, does not
possess a suitable place for holding
such exhibitions. Some time, no doubt,
before the city grows too large to find
space close in for recreation park,
bonds will be issued for the erection
of convenient rodeo park, ball
ground, grand stand, all conveniently
equipped and fashioned. No more
worthwhile improvement could be
suggested, as Flagstaff has recently
her $4,000 recreation and tourist
park.
