where organization of Rotary Clubs
have been made. For long time
business men in the smaller towns,
have had but one object; and that
was, to get as much business as it
was possible from competitors,
without looking to see the effect of
the method or policy pursued in
accomplishing that purpose. AS a
result their views became narrow.
Few if any heads of business in
the smaller towns, or even small
cities, understood how they could
maintain a business rivalry with
competitor on beneficial founda-
ton. This seems to be one of the
objects of rotarians and by this pol
icy, the standard of business ethics
will rise and larger and better
stores, with intelligent men urging
themselves and the employees, to
create a new atmosphere in the bus
mess world of tomorrow.
The business which attracts GUS
toners has something more than
large show rooms, and good sales
people. 1t has that kind of mer-
chandise which holds numbers Of
customers, even with the same IA
cilities. The competitor who sees
trade going by him, must not blame
the other fellow and become jealous
of his success; but must buckle
down to the task of learning why
his store is failing to attract the
customers. 1t is part of his task
to so arrange that more attractive
values shall be given, or that new
suggestions be arranged for the peo-
pie to see and pass judgment upon.
1t is his duty to serve the public in
every way, by square dealing, help
full suggestions and well displayed
articles for the people to see under
the most favorable conditions. That
kind of service will win confidence
and bring success for the service
given. It is a young mans job and
it requires earnest study, long plan
ming and careful service of the pub
lie fancy. The Rotary and rotar-
ians are doing this work for the
people of the Delmarvia Peninsula,
and also are building better un-
derstanding of business men each of
the other.

IF ANY man or woman is per-
mitted to criticize the laws of his
state or country by claiming they
can not be enforced, or that law is
wrong and will not afford protec-
tion to the individual, they are enc
mics to good government and by
their acts and moods are helping to
break down laws which afford pro-
lection to property, or invested
rights, as well as liberty; for, by
word or act, property is deprived
of protection as well as the individ-
ual of his liberty, leaving open an
easy way for unlawful interference
by others, which invite bloodshed
and anarchy. Too often the word
Liberty" is construed for personal
convenience and without real under
standing of what Liberty For All"
means.
The right of every man to organ
ize for protection does not include
the right to interfere with legal
right of any other person to carry
on any legitimate business. The
legislature has attempted to deny
to one class of citizens the protec-
ton of the courts while granting it
to other citizens under similar cir
cumstances. To say to one class
that it's property may be taken
from it or destroyed by another
class without compensation or pro-
cess, is not liberty; it is inviting

THE PRESENT editorial attitude
of the New York Times and the
New York World, both black Demo-
cratic organs, is disturbing the
Democratic leaders more than they
care to confess. Just after the
Democrats had decided that the
Coolidge policy of getting rid of our
debt as quickly as possible was
something which they could safely
attack, the New York Times editor
tally lambasted them, and warned
them that unless they stood by the
President they would lose what lit
tie public respect was left, and
mournfully regretted that the DEM
ocratic Party had so little sense as
to really think of pledging itself to
a programme that it was economy
to delay the extinguishment of the
public debt meanwhile paying in
teTest on the same. The Times ad-
vised them that if they did not
know it, the sooner they learned
that the way to pay a debt was to
pay it, the better it would be. 1t
also chastised them for attempting
to delay the tax-bill, and as a re-
suit on Thursday last, the Demo-
cratic high command itself served
notice on the Democratic leaders to
stop their fooling and take the Re-
publican tax-bill and pass it. The
New York World in the meantime
issued an editorial warning to the
Democrats to stop their criticism Of
Mr.. MELONS programme as relates
both to the domestic and foreign
debts, and did him the honor to
eulogize his vision as the sensible
one which the Democrats should
see. Both of these newspapers, Of
course, meanwhile continue pin
pricking the President and the Re-
publican administration, but after
all, if on the great big issues they
are willing to preach sane doc
trine to Democratic listeners, one
can afford to ignore the little in
discretions.

Shoulder Exercises.

If your shoulders need developing.
or Strengthening, the best. in fact. the
only method of improving them is by
exercise. Let me suggest these
First, what many call the windmill
exercise. You may have to read this
over several times; it sounds compli-
Gated until you understand it. Stand
with your feet together and toes
pointing straight ahead. Raise your
arms so they are horizontal, one
pointing straight ahead. the other
behind-say, the right arm ahead, the
left arm behind Keep them in a
horizontal line while you begin a
circling motion of the body from the
waist. That is. bend over so the
right hand goes down TO the toes,
the left high over your head. Continue
the circling motion, so the right hand
goes around and over the head and
the left is brought automatically down
to the toes.
Continue, swinging the bent body
from side to side-this part is fine for
the waistline. especially If the waist
has grown large and fat-the left and
right arms alternately being raised
and lowered Do it slowly until quite
used to it-then you'll find a sort
of rhythm in the movement, which
will make the exercise a pleasure.
You can do it fairly fast after a time
You'll find it easier if you stand
